Bob Lowry thanked the audience and his family for being honored at the Golden Civic Foundation dinner Saturday. Lowry retained his composure although he held up a towel he had on hand to use in case he couldn’t hold back tears. Lowry was honored for his community service and encouraged others to pursue enjoyment in public service to serve their communities. Several of his family members came from other states to join in the celebration, which included two standing ovations for Lowry.

During its Exemplary Awards Ceremony, the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office awarded its many deputies for their services in the community on Thursday, Nov. 13.

The recognition of officers, medics and members from the media highlighted the ceremony in a team effort that safely ended the Lookout Mountain crime spree in July by Christopher Sullivan and his female accomplice.

Deputy Fred Haggett, 61, was given the prestigious Medal of Valor for his take down of Sullivan on I-70 that was broadcasted live.

“Fred reacted in a very professional, calculated and responsible manner. He is a credit not only to this agency but to law enforcement as a whole,” said Sheriff Ted Mink in an email to the Golden Transcript.

Traffic reporter for 850 KOA, John Morrissey, was given a Citizen Citation of Merit along with Kris Mulholland from 9News for their helicopter surveillance on Sullivan which helped law enforcement track down the suspect.

Morrissey compared Haggett’s approach to capturing Sullivan to Western movie star John Wayne.

“He gets off his motorcycle, when it’s still moving, apprehends

the guy and face plants him right in the middle of I-70, I mean he just ended it just like that,” Morrissey said. “It was like John Wayne.

It was the most amazing thing, I’ve never seen anything like that in my entire life, he got it done.”

Haggett said he doesn’t feel like a hero and was glad the situation ended safely for everyone involved.

“Half a dozen agencies responded to that incident. I don’t know how many cops were up there, everybody up there was looking for that confrontation to bring that the thing to an end so that nobody would get hurt,” Haggett said. “I was fortuitously the one who ended up encountering that gentleman and taking him into custody. We were all making the same effort and trying to accomplish the same thing it just turned out that it was me.”

Lieutenants Jim Lucas and Shawn Allen received the Medal for Distinguished Service for their attempts to apprehend Sullivan who reportedly pointed his assault rifle at them. Flight for Life members received the Citizen Accommodation Award, as well, for helping to locate the vehicle highjacked by Sullivan from a family of four.

During the ceremony, the Sheriff’s office took the time to acknowledge the courageous acts and contributions of community members as well.

More than 40 residents and law enforcement officials were recognized for their services, in a generous gesture from the sheriff’s office to share the spotlight.

“We are partners with the citi-

can’t accomplish our mission without their assistance, and we are always grateful for it.”

When thanks is the reward of giving A few hundred men and women form a thin, bedraggled line that follows the sidewalk from the Denver City and County Building along the edge of Civic Center Park.

They slowly shift their way forward — for some it will take two to three hours — to a 23-table buffet nearly the length of a city block, laden with all the trimmings of Thanksgiving dinner.

Mikayla Sullivan, 17, stands near the end, her small frame draped in a black, wool coat, a gray Broncos cap sitting backwards on her strawberry-blonde hair.

She doesn’t mind the wait. She’s thankful for the food.

“We can eat,” Mikayla says. She and her boyfriend are living for the moment in a pay-by-the-day motel. She smiles, holding an unlit cigarette between her fingers.

She’s also thankful for her 11- and 12-year old sisters back home in Indianapolis. But when she mentions them, she struggles to keep tears from filling her green eyes.

“This is the first Thanksgiving that …”

Her voice trails off.

For six hours on this second Saturday in November, hundreds of men, women and children dine at tables covered in golden plastic tablecloths decorated with vases of fall flowers. They spread across a closed-off Bannock Street in front of the city’s government building.

David Clifton Ministries in Lakewood, a nonprofit that works with the homeless and needy, has served this dinner for 19 years with the help of an army of volunteers. They are young and old. They ladle food onto plates and clean up and carry trays to tables for those who can’t on their own. They help wherever they can.

“Water,” a young woman with a nametag that reads “Savannah” calls out as she walks along the line with a tray of cups.

“Water.”

JoAnn Trudell, 63, reaches for one.

“Thank you for taking care of us,” she says with a smile.

JoAnn, shoulder-length white hair topped by a beanie of the same color, is here with her friend, Joyce Ann Schneider, 67. They pull an empty purple suitcase they hope to fill with food to take home.

“We’re not homeless, but we’re disabled,” JoAnn says. “We don’t make enough to make a Thanksgiving meal, to have Thanksgiving treats and special things — and this is just wonderful. It makes us so happy, like we’re more a part of the human race.”

Most of the diners are homeless. Some have roofs over their heads, living in subsidized housing or with family and friends, but — like JoAnn — say they are grateful for a meal they cannot afford.

Hunger. An anguish most of us don’t feel. But numbers prove it is very real: Nearly one in seven Coloradans faced times in 2013 when they didn’t have enough money to buy food for their families or themselves.

More than one in five households with children faced financial challenges to put food on the table.

More than one in four working families do not have enough money to meet their basic needs.

That’s according to Hunger Free

Colorado, the state’s leading anti-hunger organization.

And consider this: The Metro Denver Homeless Initiative reported 5,812 homeless men, women and children as of January in the seven-county metro Denver area. And of the 2,230 men, women and children who were at-risk for homelessness, nearly two-thirds were living in households with children.

At the end of the buffet line, at an area of tables heavy with piles of jackets and shirts and pants, Heather Mondy, 38, searches for clothes for her three daughters.

“Mom, I like this one,” a daughter shouts, trying on a beige, wool coat.

Heather lugs a second trash bag filled with clothes to the grass where her family rests. She and her children traveled from Golden, where she lives in Section 8 federally subsidized housing, “to hang out with people who are not going to be judgmental or mean…”

They enjoyed the dinner, but the clothing was a true blessing, she says. “I’m definitely going to be able to dress them warm… and cute this year.”

A petite woman with sparkly sunglasses and long auburn hair, she is thankful for the day.

“I’m blessed we can still come together peacefully,” Heather says, “and we still have heart for helping the ones who need our help.”

At one of the tables, a 63-year-old woman leans back, eyes closed, swaying to the jazzy music from the nearby band.

Her late husband was a veteran, she says. A few nights a week, she stays with her son in his subsidized apartment. She spends the other nights at St. Francis Center, a shelter for homeless men and women.

“Right now,” she says, “I’m looking for a

permanent home.”

She stood in line for three hours to partake of the banquet. The turkey. The stuffing. The green beans and mashed potatoes and gravy.

“I’m going to take some home for later tonight,” she says, then laughs softly. “And breakfast in the morning.”

She speaks with graceful elegance and asks her name not be used. She’s been homeless off and on for the past six years.

It’s a weary struggle she hopes will end soon.

Yet she remains grateful.

“I’m thankful for my health and strength, for being able to walk around,” she says. “Most of all, my spirituality. Faith is the expectation of unforeseen things.

And that’s what carries me on every day.”

The sun begins to sink on the outdoor Thanksgiving feast. The line is no longer hundreds deep. Diners, scattered along the tables, linger, listening to the waning melodies of the band.

Simple expressions of gratitude tumble in the gentle darkness: Jackie Russell, 53, homeless: “Being alive.”

Mystic Aberle, 32, volunteer: “Having a warm place to stay.”

Paul Winters, 47, on disability: “Being able to give God thanks.”

Tami Bigandt, 46, volunteer: “That my daily needs are met… that I have food.”

True thanks giving.

ORANGE LEAVES IN A WHITE WORLD

Neville slides in as senator for District 16 of walking in precincts and knocking on doors — there was a lot of frustration out there with the way government is going in the state and of course at the federal level, too. People are ready to have government take more of a limited role in their lives,” Neville said.

After 10 years, GOP took back the state senate in the general election as well as the Neville U.S. Congress.

But Neville said the voters he spoke too were not concerned about the state of affairs from a particular party standpoint.

“They’re looking for things that work and getting back to basically what our roots are,” he said. “I think they relate to self-governance.”

Next year, his priorities will focus on health care and education, specifically Common Core and Teaching Strategies Gold (TS Gold). “We also

Nearly a week after mid-term elections, unofficial results for the senate race in District 16 has Republican Tim Neville replacing incumbent Jeanne Nicholson, D-Blackhawk.

Senate District 16 lies along the Front Range and covers all of Gilpin County and portions of Boulder and Jefferson counties, as well as areas in Littleton and Englewood.

It was a close race with Neville winning by 2 percent.

Although Nicholson collected the most votes in Boulder, Denver and Gilpin, Jeffco’s size and therefore key influence in state elections gave Neville the unpredicted advantage he needed, with the majority of votes captured in Jeffco going to him.

“It wasn’t a surprise from our standpoint,” Neville said of his win.

“When I was calling on voters, in particular unaffiliated voters, we did a lot

have the issue of just the budget itself and the continuing growth of Medicaid,” he said. “I’m hoping we can find some across the aisle support and work with our Democratic cohorts in the senate to look at some common sense solutions for those things.”

Although members have not yet been announced for senate committees, Neville reported he showed a strong interest for business, education and energy committees.

Sen. Vicki Marble, R-Fort Collins of SD-23, is pleased to be working with Neville once again to tackle issues surrounding education, energy and health care that Marble said should never have been politicized.

“I am so happy for Colorado and the ability to elect such a dynamic person like Tim who is so steeped in the principals of the party and so knowledgeable about our constitution and our rights,” Marble said. “It’s going to be an honor to serve with such a great man — if he gives you his word, it’s as good as delivered.”

Dems tout diversity in leadership picks Hullinghorst to be first female speaker since 2003

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com The state House Democratic Caucus came together on Nov. 14 to elect a new leadership team that will be made up almost entirely of either minorities or women when lawmakers begin work in January.

They will include Colorado’s first female speaker of the state House of Representatives since 2003.

Rep. Dickey Lee Hullinghorst of Gunbarrel was tabbed speaker following a unanimous vote during a leadership election gathering inside the Capitol.

Hullinghorst, who was first elected to her House District 10 seat in 2008, had previously served as majority leader under outgoing speaker Mark Ferrandino of Denver, who is term-limited.

Hullinghorst thanked her colleagues and recalled what it was like having first walked into the Capitol as an elected official about six years ago.

“It gave me chills, just like I’m feeling right now,” she said.

When Hullinghorst takes the speaker’s gavel in early January, she will become the first female speaker since Lola Spradley.

Hullinghorst will lead a House that has a Democratic majority of 34-31, a smaller seat advantage than Ferrandino enjoyed last year, due to a few Democratic losses in the Nov. 4 election.

Ferrandino also had the luxury of a Democratic Senate majority. That won’t happen now that Republicans hold a oneseat advantage in that chamber following election results from earlier this month.

“There are those who say that a split legislature is a huge challenge … ” Hullinghorst said. “I prefer to consider it a huge opportunity.”

Hullinghorst also praised Ferrandino’s

two-year stewardship in the House, where she said the outgoing speaker “accomplished more for the people of Colorado than any other Legislature.”

The election of Hullinghorst for speaker by acclimation was one of the few uncontested leadership races voted on by House Democrats.

Among the contested battles was that of House Majority Leader, which Rep. Crisanta Duran of Denver won.

“She knows how to work across the aisle and she knows how to build a coalition,” said Rep. Daniel Kagan of Cherry Hills Village, who nominated Duran for the post.

Duran beat out Dan Pabon of Denver, a former assistant Majority Leader. Pabon was widely considered to be a candidate for House speaker as well. Instead, he threw his support behind Hullinghorst.

After losing the majority leader election, Pabon told Duran, “You’ve got my 100 percent support.”

Rep. Dominick Moreno of Commerce

City will serve as Duran’s assistant majority leader after beating out Denver Rep. Beth McCann for the post.

Moreno was first elected to the House in 2012 and has the least amount of experience among members of the new leadership team. Moreno said that he has always dismissed talk of him not having enough experience in any endeavor he has undertaken.

“I wouldn’t be here standing before you today if I hadn’t proved them wrong,” he said.

Rep. Sue Ryden of Aurora will serve as House majority whip, a position charged with counting and rounding up votes. Rep. Brittany Pettersen of Lakewood will serve as assistant whip.

Rep. Angela Williams of Denver was elected Democratic caucus chairperson.

Rep. Mike Foote of Lafayette was the only nonminority or nonfemale elected to a leadership post. He will serve as assistant caucus chairperson.

The Pros and Cons of Listing Your Home for Sale During the Holiday Season

By JIM SMITH, Realtor ®

It is “conventional wisdom” that December is not a good time to try to sell a home. True, most people are preparing for the holidays, have full social calendars, and are shopping — but not for their next home.

This fact begs the question of whether your home is likely to sell and weighing that prospect against the inconvenience of disrupting your own holiday season to make it available for showings.

Working in favor of listing your home is the fact that the number of active listings which would compete with your home for buyers is so small. Shown below, courtesy of REcolorado, our local MLS, are charts displaying by

month the numbers of sold and active residential listings for Jefferson County over the past five years.

Notice the dramatic change over past Decembers of the ratio of active listings to the number of sales. Last December, for example, there were 700 sales and 1,370 active listings — a ratio of less than 1:2. The previous December, there were 608 sales and 3,226 active listings, a ratio of about 1:5. The year before, it was 1:9. The year before that, it was about 1:12.

November statistics aren’t available yet, of course, but I did an MLS search and the number of active Jeffco listings as of Nov. 18th is 1,105, and there have been 459 closings of

JEFFCO SALES BY MONTH

JEFFCO ACTIVE LISTINGS

Jeffco properties so far this month.

There are another 670 listings that have been under contract since before Nov. 1st, and are likely to close between now and the end of the year, so one can guess that the number of sold listings will be higher than previous years for November and December.

I’m not going out on a limb to suggest that the ratio this December will be less than 1:2 again. This tells me that if you are thinking of putting your home on the market this holiday season and if you price it right, it will probably sell quickly.

Moreover, because of continued low inventory and high buyer activity, your home will likely sell near or above asking price with multiple offers. The key is pricing your home right, as I have written numerous times, and not pricing it at…

GOP tabs state Senate leaders Colorado Springs Republican Bill Cadman to serve as president

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A unified Senate Republican caucus on Nov. 11 unanimously put in place a leadership team that will guide the chamber’s new majority party through the next legislative session.

It came as no surprise that the 18-member caucus tabbed Sen. Bill Cadman of Colorado Springs as Senate President. Cadman has served in the Legislature since 2000 and has represented Republicans as Senate minority leader the last four sessions.

Cadman infused some humor into the proceedings as he reminded those in attendance of how long it had taken him to finally oversee a Republican majority.

“As we prepare to serve in the majority — I have to say it again — as we prepare to serve in the majority,” Cadman said to laughter from inside a large-sized Capitol committee hearing room. “We got the big room. I haven’t been in here in eight years.”

When the legislative session begins in mid-January, Republicans will enjoy an 1817 majority, the same one-seat advantage Democrats held last year.

That’s thanks in part to victories by Re-

Photo by Vic Vela publican candidates in a few key Senate districts, including a win by Beth MartinezHumenik in the Adams County-based Senate District 24, a tight race that wasn’t called until days after the election.

While Republicans will hold a slim majority in the Senate, the opposite will be true in the House, where Democrats held on to their majority following the results

from Nov. 4.

That reality is not lost on Cadman.

“We have to stay focused on what brings us together as a caucus, not what divides us,” Cadman urged his members.

Cadman’s right-hand-man next session will continue to be Sen. Mark Scheffel of Parker, who will serve as majority leader.

Scheffel, who was elected to his District

4 seat in 2008, has served as assistant minority leader under Cadman for the last three years.

“It’s humbling. It’s an honor. It’s a privilege,” Scheffel said after being heaped with praise by Cadman, who nominated Scheffel for the position.

Two women will serve on the new leadership team: Sen. Ellen Roberts of Durango, who was elected Senate president pro-tem and Sen. Vickie Marble of Fort Collins, who will serve as Republican caucus chairwoman.

Sen. Randy Baumgardner of Hot Sulfur Springs, who will serve as majority whip, will hold the job of counting and rounding up votes on legislation.

With its new majority, Republicans will double the number of members that will sit on the Joint Budget Committee, which oversees the forming of the annual state budget.

Sen. Kent Lambert of Colorado Springs will continue to serve on the committee with new JBC member Sen. Kevin Grantham of Canon City joining him.

At the end of the proceedings, Cadman and his colleagues exchanged Peyton Manning jerseys, with the Denver Broncos quarterback’s No. 18 symbolizing the number of GOP members that will serve in the chamber over which Cadman will preside.

“Eighteen is what it takes to make a majority,” he said. “We are all the 18th member of this team.”

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Registration is now open for a statebacked poetry competition, and prospective participants have until Jan. 13 to decide to be — or not to be — part of the contest.

The Poetry Out Loud competition is a program designed to give high school students the ability to learn about poetry through memorization, performance and competition.

Participants will pick from selected poems to interpret, with one state winner advancing to the national finals in April in Washington, D.C. The competition marks the 10th year of the program, which collaborates with the National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation.

“It’s definitely been rewarding and we’ve had some really successful students here,” said Christy Costello, program manager for Colorado Creative Industries, an art advocacy program backed by the state’s Office of Economic Development and International Trade.

Students will interpret two poems of

their choosing from selected readings. One is a poem of 25 lines or fewer, the other being a poem that was written prior to the 20th century.

Students who are interested in participating should encourage teachers or administrators at their school to register for the program. Registration must be done through the school and not by the individual student.

State finalists will compete in Lakewood on March 3. The state champion wins $200 and an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington to compete in the national competition.

The Poetry Out Loud national champion will win a $20,000 prize.

In 2011, then-Thornton High School student Samuel Opoku won the statewide competition and finished fourth in the national competition.

However, the contest isn’t just about winning, Costello said.

“The goal of program is to teach memorization and to keep poetry alive across the nation,” Costello said.

For more information about the competition, go to coloradocreativeindustries.org or call Rachael Deagman at 720-253-3337.

GOLDEN CITY COUNCIL ON THE RECORD

100%

Golden City Council discussed the following legislation during its regular business meeting on Thursday, Nov. 13. Council members in attendance were Mayor Marjorie Sloan; Mayor Pro Tem Joe Behm, Ward 1; Saoirse Charis-Graves, District 1; Marcie Miller, District 2; Marcia Claxton, Ward 1; Pamela Gould, Ward 3; Laura Weinberg, Ward 4.

Storm drainage utility fee to increase for homeowners

Solid waste and recycling services amended

Council passed two ordinances amending solid waste and recycling collection services in the city that requires licensing requirements for waste haulers and implements a volume-based rate for HOAs. Both ordinances passed 6-0, with Councilor Marcia Claxton recusing herself.

The two ordinances will regulate all residential haulers in the city of Golden, and will require them to provide a volume based pricing system for all residential areas that affects multifamily homes and single family homes within an HOA of eight attached units or less. The volume based pricing system is based on 32 gallon, 64 gallon and 96 gallon muliplier that will include carts and bags. Under the new system, HOA’s have three options for billing; HOA’s can chose for direct billing to households, who can then chose their service or households can have billing toward one HOA account, or HOA’s can opt-in to a different program like the Pay As You Throw program. The Ordinances will go into effect Jan. 1 but won’t be a requirement for haulers until July 1 2015.

Prices proposed by haulers have not been set.

Amending solid waste and recycling services is part of the city’s sustainability goals, getting haulers to report waste diversion rates to the city. Future opportunities to expand curb side services could include yard waste and appliance haul-away. ”There’s really going to be some really neat opportunities that will come because we have this kind of system in place,” said Theresa Worsham, sustainability coordinator. For questions regarding these ordinances, contact Worsham at goldensustainability@ cityofgolden.net.

Vacation of 13th street for Calvary tabled

Council voted to deny the current design plan for turn Arapahoe Street into a cul-de-sac between 13th and 14th streets The discussion turned to the Calvary Episcopal Church’s plans to change the street in order to expand its campus. The council tabled Calvary’s plan, requesting the church present a more comprehensive design plan that would address concerns for parking, connectivity and walkability of the area.

“I think we need to look at this right. I’m seeing how this could be a really good situation for Golden as a whole, I would like to see some further commitments about how this would work for the city as a whole,” said Mayor Sloan.

Additional council members such as Councilor Laura Weinberg stated she would like to see another design plan that opens the area to the public.

“What’s been proposed has been a very closed off campus to Golden,” Weinberg said. City staff will work with Calvary to propose a detailed site plan to council at a later date. Calvary had its conceptual campus plan approved by city council in 1994.

Stay safe by staying prepared I-70 winter driving campaign starts with education

By Amy Woodward

awoodward@coloradocommunitymedia.com Sixty percent of all traffic delays are due to traffic accidents, according to the Colorado State Patrol.

“A minor accident takes just 10 minutes to clear up but can delay traffic up to one hour,” said Steve Garcia, major for the Colorado state patrol.

Officials said traffic accident delays were often increased by curious onlookers who break to look at the accident, but the message from the Colorado State Patrol was a clear one: If a minor accident is capable of being moved to the side of the road — move it over.

In light of last week’s preview of winter weather, the Colorado Department of Transportation, in partnership with the Colorado State Patrol and the I-70 coalition, discussed improvements to last year’s Change Your Peak Time campaign during a media event on Thursday, Nov. 13.

The campaign, which focuses on improving safety and mobility for drivers on the 1-70 mountain corridor, is looking to encourage motorists to change not only the time they drive, but also how they drive, through the understanding of chain laws, preparing a vehicle for winter drives and knowing the Move It Law for minor accidents.

“We will very much be focusing on winter preparedness,” said Amy Ford, CDOT communications director.

This includes making sure tires are prepared for driving the mountain corridor.

“We obviously had some incidents last year where unfortunately some of the drivers who were impacted — actually had bald tires on the road,” Ford said. “It doesn’t mean all of us are out there driving on bald tires but I suspect more of us are than not.”

One way for drivers to check if their tires are adequate is through the quarter test. Placing a quarter on its rim inside the tread of a tire will tell whether the tire needs to be replaced. If George Washington’s head is half way or all the way covered, the tread is in good condition. If most or all of George Washington’s head is not covered, the tire needs to be replaced.

In addition to winter preparedness, CDOT is partnering with the Denver Regional Council of Governments or DRCOG for a Way To Go program to encourage carpooling, vanpooling and an I-70 SkiPool that will allow commuters to pool for one mountain trip each weekend.

The I-70 Coalition, representing mountain communities and resorts, is continuing to provide incentives and deals for travelers interested in avoiding traffic by staying back an hour or two.

“No one expects a delay-free drive on the I-70 mountain

GERARD HEALEY President MIKKEL KELLY Publisher and Editor GLENN WALLACE Assistant Editor AMY WOODWARD Community Editor

Keep public notices truly public Editor’s note: Originally published in The Aspen Times.

When government is adopting new zoning regulations, reviewing applications for retail marijuana licenses or inviting dialogue and discussion about any number of the myriad powers it may exercise, it is required by Colorado law to notify the public. Since statehood, Colorado’s public has relied on local newspapers to publish such notices.

Colorado Counties Inc., the association of county commissioners, has voted to pursue state legislation to allow counties to post their legal notices on individual county websites instead of in community newspapers. Similar legislation was defeated in 2013.

In 2014, the Colorado Press Association won approval of legislation to create www. public noticecolorado.com, a free, searchable, digital compilation of public notices published in Colorado newspapers. It provides 24/7 access to statewide notices about foreclosures, hearings, advertisements for bids, financial reports, ordinances and other government activities required to be published.

This is a public service that takes advantage of modern technology. It provides an archive of notices — proof for the government agencies that they provided legally required notice. (It already is required that newspapers provide thirdparty verification.)

It’s unreasonable to expect the public to keep track of governmental activities in a decentralized state such as Colorado, which has 1,800 government entities — counties, municipalities, school boards, irrigation districts, fire districts and more

OUR VIEW agencies, boards and commissions — that must notify the public of planned actions.

We want independent publication to help prevent cozy contract deals or simple mistakes by careless bureaucrats.

We also know the costs of legal advertising. The counties’ proposal could end up costing money as counties examine the personnel and equipment they might need to post and maintain legals in a way that satisfies people who read legals; professionals who use them in their business and, in many cases, older residents who have long scoured legal notices to be aware of their government’s plans.

The counties’ association proposal would not apply to any other government bodies, an odd proposition that’s hard to justify. Why should counties notify the public any differently than the rest of government?

The proposal also is a step backward. It doesn’t feel right to do away with thirdparty verification, a permanent print and digital archive and distribution platforms known to Coloradans for more than 100 years.

We have a much more modern system in place now that better serves the public.

We question whether it makes sense to ask government to control the very business it is required to share with the public. If a government website crashes during the period of time that a citizen

is looking for a particular liquor hearing, who will be responsible for helping that citizen to attend a meeting designed to encourage dialogue? How will that citizen get the information she needs before it’s too late? And how will the impact be measured if local voices aren’t heard on topics of community interest? Worse, who is responsible when a notice is published to the Web with a mistake? Do we ask the government to supervise the government?

That’s an unreasonable request regardless of the organization.

Even if we made the assumption — which we won’t do — that government would flawlessly execute public notices, the data tells us that transparency will be reduced if notices move from newspapers and newspaper sites to government websites.

For example, in September, Pitkin County’s website, which is a shared site with the city of Aspen, had 29,671 users and 97,156 page views. The Aspen Times had 139,903 users and 932,872 page views that same month.

It simply makes sense to continue with the modern practice in place: a digital approach that grew from a practice of publishing such notices in newspapers that is as old as the state of Colorado.

We’d be remiss if we didn’t address the 800-pound gorilla in the room. Some newspapers get paid to publish legal notices. Paid publications are paid according to rates established by state statute and unchanged since 1993. Public-notice advertising rates are the lowest ad rates that newspapers offer and the costs amount to less than 1 percent of county budgets.

What is the best thing about holiday theater?

Theater around the holidays is a part of the season and a tradition for many.

We went to the rehearsals for the Developmental Disabilities Resource Center’s annual show to find out what the best thing about holiday theater is.

“People are predisposed to have a good time during the holidays. They’re so loving and enthusiastic – you open the curtains and love flows on stage.”

Healing the modern day wounds of our nation Thanksgiving has given me much to ponder lately. Thanksgiving Day became a federal holiday during the Civil War in 1863, when President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Day of Thanksgiving and Praise on the fourth Thursday of November. (Linking a federal holiday with gratitude isn’t usually what I think of at Thanksgiving, but rather the stories from 1621 of Plymouth settlers and Native Americans.)

In the 1863 proclamation, however, written by Secretary of State William Seward, President Lincoln asked the people of a country divided by civil war for prayers “to heal the wounds of the nation.”

It’s time we do this again.

When thinking about what I am thankful for this year, the first thing was that the mid-term elections are over. If you weren’t bored, annoyed, offended, outraged, or maybe just intrigued by political ads, then you didn’t listen to the radio, watch TV, read the paper or go to your mailbox.

The deliberate misinformation, accusations, and outright lies were second only to the level of vitriol that spewed from the campaigns. According to everyone running for election, everyone else running for election was a liar and a cheat and perhaps even ugly, which one sitting congressman said about a woman from the other party who was running against a woman of his own party. But this was in another state and it could never happen here … could it?

Based on the exhaustingly long months before the elections, I believe that any-

thing derogatory – and that’s a mild word – would have been used. And not just from those seeking election, because the ballot measures generated much of the fearmongering and finger-pointing.

I am personally fanatical about voting.

Both my mother and father served in World War II, in part so that we could preserve our rights here in the U.S. Some years ago when I was extremely ill, my parents came to my home, bundled me up in a coat over my jammies, and drove me to my polling place so that I could cast my vote.

That’s why I was surprised – dismayed, even – when it occurred to me that the best thing might be not to vote this year. True, sometimes it’s a matter of voting against someone rather than for someone else, but I didn’t want to mark my ballot for very many of the choices I had. The polarization of the issues facing America feels like a country divided again.

Of course, I did vote. I considered the facts that I could find, many of which I

The Transcript 9

got from media truth tests, and I voted as a thoughtful citizen of Colorado and the U.S.A. I just wish that I, as a voter, had been given similar consideration from the campaigns.

And I am thankful. I am thankful for the rights and privileges of being a U.S. citizen, and I am grateful to those who now work, have worked, and will continue to work to preserve them.

I admire people who seek public office, and I thank those of you who cast your own votes as thoughtful leaders. We need you now, more than ever. And we desperately need whatever the rest of us can do – volunteer, teach, serve, speak, write, pray – to begin healing the modern day wounds of our nation.

Appreciating the oddball shots I was watching the Avalanche/Devils hockey game the other night, and there was this one strange play in the third period. The puck got shot down the ice into the Avalanche end, where defenseman Eric Johnson picked it up, and started up the ice. I don’t know what the original design for the play might have been, but, for whatever reason, the defense didn’t converge on Johnson, and so he just kept coming. As he crossed into the New Jersey zone, he was oddly alone, but, still, none of the five Devils players challenged Johnson. Eventually, he was in the corner of the ice with no one to pass to and no one trying to, y’know, knock him on his can.

He was kinda out of options, so he took a shot.

Now, the angle he was shooting from was extreme — he was basically shooting straight from the side. I’ll bet if he took 100 such shots in practice without a goalie, less than half would find the net. But, with his team down one goal late in the game, he took a chance. He put the puck on the net, and a good thing happened: goal! It was a bold shot, an unorthodox shot, and something great came of it.

I was thinking about that in the context of life today. You always miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take, so I’m starting to really appreciate the oddball “shots.”

Let me give you one example. About a year ago, I wrote a column about a man named Mike McQueen. Mike is a Jeffco teacher/librarian of 20 years, and also the father of a former student of mine. Last year, Mike wrote a book — an important book full of ideas on how to get boys inter-

ested in reading. I don’t know how much any of you know about the book business, but getting a book off of your hard drive and into peoples’ hands is an expensive endeavor. Mike, ever creative, went out and started a crowdfunding campaign to help him pay for copies of his book. It hit the presses, came into his hands, and off he goes, helping reading teachers all over the county.

Mike’s dream was to help boys read.

But a strange thing happened on the way back to his library: somebody heard about his effort, and contacted him to coauthor another book. And, along the way, Mike has also been called upon to guide other people as they attempted to fund their dreams through the crowdfunding mechanism.

I’m not sure Mike set out with hopes of writing another book with another person, and then become a crowdfunding expert. But, funny thing, when you take the bold, unorthodox step, sometimes great things come your way unexpectedly.

As of this writing, Mike is moving to Missouri and embarking on a second career as a full-time author. Godspeed, Michael!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Behind the skidmarks It’s been really treacherous driving in my neighborhood, since sub-zero record November temps and icy road conditions arrived over Veterans Day. It took me an hour to drive to King Sooper’s on Veteran’s Day (a 10-minute drive normally), due to police auto crash investigations at 6th Avenue and Johnson Road backing up local traffic in all directions. So yesterday I didn’t venture out at all with my SUV. Around 4 p.m. I was shoveling snow off my driveway out front and heard this loud crash toward the back of the house. The City of Golden, just installed traffic mitigation islands, and calming curbs on Eagle Ridge Drive behind my house on Entrada Drive, this month, to lower the speed of traffic to the legal maximum speed of 25 mph.

This was not a well conceived solution due to the severe slope of Eagle Ridge Drive, by adding driving obstacles in the roadway, as in the City’s own flyer described them, “an obstacle course,” that I knew would present unsafe driving conditions during the winter months when ice and snow accumulations can occur on the road, prior to the city snow plow’s ability to arrive and remove said snow and ice

melt from the roadway.

On the evening of Tuesday, Nov. 11, at 4 p.m. a resident, from Golden Eagle Circle, the neighborhood above me, was descending Eagle Ridge Drive in her car, driving below the 25 mph speed limit. She told me she lost control of her vehicle due to the icy conditions and struck the center median, directly behind my house at 629 Entrada Drive.

She bounced off the center median, couldn’t recover, struck the right hand side street curb, drove over the sidewalk striking my backyard fence, taking down one post and two panels. I was sitting in my bedroom at the time, only 8 yards away on a descending backyard slope to my house.

No one was on the sidewalk, walking their dog, jogging, baby carriage strolling, or outside in my back yard, fortunately at the time.

I’ll be reporting this first snow day accident in my neighborhood to the Public Works Director of the City of Golden, and that the City of Golden’s road modifications on Eagle Ridge Drive, contributed to unsafe changes to the health and well being of my neighborhood.

David Williams Golden

As I write this, I, too, am taking a (frightened) bold step. You may have noticed my bio at the bottom of the column has changed lately: I have my own novel out (shameless plug alert!). And I, too, am taking an unorthodox road, publishing it myself and taking on the burden of marketing and design and sales and the whole rigmarole that traditionally falls on agents and publishers. It’s been an adventure, let me tell you, as every step along the way brings up new things that I didn’t know I didn’t know. But I feel, in my heart, that this is the right way to do this, and I trust that God will take this wherever He wants to in time.

It may never be huge, I may never be on a bestseller list, and I have no plans to

change my lifestyle at this time. Because the lesson of Eric Johnson and Mike McQueen is that sometimes that unorthodox shot caroms in directions that can’t be foreseen. I can’t wait to find out where it takes me!

What about you? Are you holding back your shot, waiting for the perfect moment or the ideal conditions? Don’t! There’s a reason it’s called a “leap” of faith — try it, see where it takes you.

Grand Budapest holiday Arvada Center runs ‘She Loves Me’ for the season

By Clarke Reader

creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com The holidays are a hectic time for everybody, so it’s important to pause and consider what make this time of year special.

The Arvada Center is giving theater-goers a chance to do just that with “She Loves Me” — a show from the golden age of musicals by Jerry Bock and Sheldon WHAT: “She Loves Me” Harnick (the creative WHERE: Arvada Center team behind “Fiddler 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., Arvada on the Roof”).

WHEN: Nov. 25 - Dec. 21 “She Loves Me” Tuesday - Saturday - 7:30 p.m. runs at the center, Wednesday - 1 p.m.

6901 Wadsworth Saturday and Sunday - 2 p.m.

Blvd., from Nov. 25 COST: $36 to $73 through Dec. 21.

INFORMATION: 720-898-7200 or www.

Performances are arvadacenter.org Tuesday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m., Wednesday at 1 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m.

“This show comes from the prime time of musicals — everyone knows shows like ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ and ‘Guys and Dolls,’” said actress Jennifer Lorae. “I think this show is just as sophisticated as any of the others of the era.”

The story follows Georg (Andrew Russell) and Amalia (Julia Jackson), a pair of feuding clerks in a European parfumerie in Budapest during the 1930s. The two share a desire for depth and love in their lives and appear to find comfort in their anonymous romantic pen pals. Little do they know that their pen pals are each other.

They are joined in the farcical fracas by shop owner Mr. Maraczek (Mark Rubald) and employee Ilona Ritter (Lorae).

“The play is in part about the different masks we wear and how they hide different personalities,” Rubald said. “There are rich characters and storyline with

IF YOU GO

some darker moments that add to their depth.”

The play starts in the summer and moves to Christmas, capturing the excitement and celebration that accompanies the season. This tone finds its way into the show’s song and dance numbers, which incorporate nods to carols throughout.

“There are a few big numbers throughout that create a very ensemble feel,” Russell said. “A lot of the songs are very patter-based — they have a lot of words and are really fun.”

The actors spoke highly of the sets, costumes and dialogue in setting the scene of a classic European city. While the darkening mood on the continent isn’t mentioned directly, Lorae said there is an undercurrent of desperation in some of the characters and their actions that hints at what’s to come.

Those dark moments don’t distract from the celebratory nature of the play, or the very things it celebrates.

“The best thing is a show about love,” Russell said. “That’s something they’re all aspiring for — love with family and kids. They’re all dreamers.”

There are a lot of holiday shows that go heavy on the season, like “A Christmas Carol” and “Miracle on 34th Street,” but “She Loves Me” goes for something else — the elegance and comedy of a charming love story.

“I feel like the nicest people come to the Arvada Center for holidays,” Jackson said.

“It ends up being a really great holiday show.”

When Miki Hashimoto closed Japon, an 18-year fixture in Wash Park, it was a shock to our sushi systems.

But the venerable owner, who was lured to the United States 26 years ago at age 15 by the movie “American Graffiti,” promised to return to Denver’s dining scene.

And he’s done just that with the recent opening of Tokio, a 60-seat ramen, binchotan grill and sushi spot in the burgeoning Prospect neighborhood at 2907 Huron St. “Dining at Tokio is the most authentic Japanese experience one can have in Denver, and we are very excited to bring the unique flavor of real Japanese ramen, binchotan grilling and imported Hakushika sake and spirits to the Prospect neighborhood,” Hashimoto sad. “Tokio transports diners to a small house in Japan where only the freshest, highest quality delicacies are served, and we know that our patrons will taste the difference.”

During the media menu tasting on Nov. 12, Hashimoto and his crew prepared an array of goodies including a spicy B&B roll, vegetarian ramen (with house made noodles) bacon-wrapped asparagus, shumai (dumplings) and yakitori chicken skewers from the binchotan (Japanese charcoal) grill.

Each course was paired with sake samplers — four tumblers of sake neatly served on a plate bearing each drink’s name. Tokio’s decor is industrial minimalistic, designed by Kanji Ueki, who also helped design the original Apple retail stores.

Downstairs is the hopping and happening space with sushi bar seating and a long community table made from a piece of ash that Hashimoto found in Longmont.

Upstairs is a more romantic and intimate surrounding with a sake bar.

Parking is available in the lot behind the restaurant, and reservations can be made at www.mytokio.com or by calling 720-639-2911.

Ah, that DIA dining

Thrillist.com, the website that brings you all the lists you never knew you needed to know, has compiled “Every important American airport ranked by its food/drink.”

Coming in at a respectable No. 8 — out of 72 — is Denver International Airport.

Here’s how Thrillist made its picks: “We did it like this: First, we broke down every essential airport by the number of planes that fly in, plus region so every state was included. Then we looked up every single restaurant and bar available at each spot, and broke the airports down into four tiers. Once we had the tiers, we went deeper and figured out our proper rankings, paying particular attention to two factors: a) whether the options were unique and illustrative of the foods of that region, and b) the quantity of quality places available. But we tried to weigh the first factor higher, so smaller airports with more local food got more credit than massive places with 85 chains.”

Retiring? Check Wheat Ridge

Wheat Ridge was named one of the nation’s best cities for retirement, according to a new ranking released Monday by Livability. com. The city was ranked fifth on Livability’s 2014 Best Places to Retire list — the only Colorado city

day, Nov. 29.

This is a fund raising event sponsored by several major businesses as well as the City of Golden to raise money for the Neighborhood Rehab Project that benefit’s the entire town. This is an organization comprised of volunteers that are dedicated to helping people in need with keeping and maintaining a safe, warm home and empowering those volunteers to purchase materials to make those improvements.

Basically the theme for the day is to dress up like an elf and join in a parade of elves downtown. Then they will all head

to make the cut.

Livability cited Wheat Ridge’s numerous bike trails, fitness centers, nearby mountains and ski resorts as important amenities for active retirees. Through its research, Livability found that Wheat Ridge was one of the healthiest cities it examined, with the highest percentage of residents who exercise out of all the cities on this list. The site also factored in Wheat Ridge’s support groups, abundant shopping opportunities, great restaurants, low crime and excellent health care into its ranking.

Also working in Wheat Ridge’s favor is the homestead exemption Colorado provides to eligible residents 65 and older. In addition, Livability noted that Colorado residents 55 and older receive a generous retirement-income exclusion from state taxes. At 7.5 percent, Wheat Ridge’s sales tax is also lower than the national average of 9.6 percent.

“We are thrilled to have Livability recognize the high quality of life that we enjoy in Wheat Ridge,” said Wheat Ridge Mayor Joyce Jay. “For residents who want easy access to both an array of outdoor amenities and all Denver has to offer, we’re hard to beat.”

To see the entire list, go to www.

to a Pancake Breakfast, which is included in the entry fee for the event, where there will be prizes and a costume contest and other fun things. But, in addition to the Elf Parade, there is also the option of doing a 5K run. You can register for the run and parade combo or just for the parade if running isn’t your thing.

All participants get a reusable grocery bag filled with coupons that they can use at Golden’s local businesses for Small

State tests meet student resistance Seniors statewide balk at taking lengthy new assessment

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com High school seniors throughout Colorado refused to participate Nov. 5 and 6 in a state-mandated test. Many school leaders, parents and students hope the expected low participation rate sends a clear message about what they believe is excessive standardized testing.

“People don’t always listen to educators, but they do listen to parents and students,” Cherry Creek School District spokeswoman Tustin Amole said. “This may be very helpful in letting policy makers know how parents and students feel.”

A state education official said the student response likely will result in significant discussion.

The first week in November was the beginning of three weeks of state-issued social studies and science tests for high school seniors called the Colorado Measures of Academic Success.

Colorado students in fourth, fifth, seventh and eighth grades underwent CMAS testing in spring 2014.

The online test is a partial replacement for both the original Colorado Student Assessment Program, administered until 2011, and the Transitional Colorado Assessment Program, issued in 2012 and 2013. Those exams were designed to test third- through 10th-grade students’ math, science, reading and writing skills.

A separate CMAS test, the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College & Career, will test third- through 11th-grade students in reading writing and math beginning in spring 2015.

Seniors added to testing schedule

CMAS adds social studies to the list of subjects and comes with another twist: It added seniors to the list of those expected to take the six-hour test.

Castle View High School senior Rachel Decker is among hundreds who didn’t take the CMAS assessment at her Castle Rock school. As an outgoing student, Decker said the test won’t benefit her academically and has no bearing on her future plans.

“My parents were in full agreement with me,” she said.

“I know only about 50 students who actually took the test, and some of them just made up answers or drew pictures in the (test) bubbles.”

The decision to add testing at the 12th-grade level was in part because the exams are designed to test knowledge acquired throughout high school, said Joyce Zurkowski, the Colorado Department of Education’s director of assess-

ment, and to allow schools control over when in the fouryear high school schedule to offer the instruction.

But she said state officials knew scheduling a standardized test for seniors was a gamble.

“We knew we were approaching a line with the fall of 12th grade,” Zurkowski said, but added the options appeared limited. “I don’t think (the students’ response) was completely unanticipated. In the long run, I don’t know that it will stay at fall of 12th grade.”

In the future, Zurkowski said state assessments may be made more meaningful, perhaps by linking them to higher education or post-high school work places.

“Long term, will kids have to take both the ACT and PARCC in Colorado?” she said. “I don’t know.”

Logistical challenges in Douglas County

Student investment in taking the tests isn’t the only issue.

Both the number of computers and the length required for CMAS testing presented high schools in Douglas County with challenges. Castle View, Rock Canyon, Chaparral and Douglas County high schools gave underclassmen two half-days Nov. 5 and 6 to accommodate the testing. Schedule changes also were expected Nov. 12 and 13 during testing at Highland Ranch, Mountain Vista and ThunderRidge high schools. Make-up test dates also were designated.

Despite the accommodation, many Douglas County School District seniors either let school leaders know they were opting out of the Nov. 5 and 6 tests, or didn’t show up for them.

Several DCSD principals contacted about students opting out of CMAS testing did not return calls to Colorado Community Media, and the district referred questions on CMAS to state education officials.

Several Castle View parents, students and teachers said well over 50 percent of the high school’s students did not attend the sessions. Some seniors at the other DCSD schools that scheduled tests for Nov. 5 and 6 also opted not to participate.

Testing is set for Nov. 13 and 14 at high schools in Cherry Creek and Boulder Valley, where a sizeable majority of students refused to take the tests.

“There’s been quite a bit of conversation about students opting out,” Boulder Valley Superintendent Bruce Messinger said. “I’ve met with students. They’ve communicated with me. I’m not upset with the students. These are very high-performing students — these aren’t students who are motivated to skip school. Most of them will be in college (when results come back).

“If it were of great benefit to them individually or to our school district, we might take a stronger stance. I’m not go-

Impacts for schools

Colorado Department of Education officials said they need 95 percent of students at each school to participate in the test to ensure they have accurate data, a figure set by federal legislation. The data helps education leaders make state, district and school-level policy decisions, according to the CDE. Without that participation rate, a school’s performance framework rating could drop one level. The state’s performance framework includes four levels, ranking a school’s academic achievement and postsecondary readiness, among other factors.

Shared concerns

ing to force the students to take a test.”

At Cherry Creek, Amole said the district is requesting only that parents notify the school of the absence if a student chooses not to take the test. Amole said student discussions reflect those of parents and other adults concerned about excessive testing.

“We need to respect our kids,” she said. “They are adults, or nearly adults, and need to make choices for themselves about what they think is the best thing for them to do.”

Despite actions by fellow students across the state, Jeffco students stayed inside the classroom for controversial CMAS testing.

When asked, members of the student group, Jeffco Student Network for Change, said they weren’t planning on taking action.

“I don’t believe so since it affects everyone,” Sizemore said.

While recent protests and sick-outs with curriculum changes and teacher compensations gave reason for Jeffco students to skip out of school in September, district officials report no abnormal levels of absences during testing days.

creader@colorado communitymedia.com Arts and cultural organizations do more than teach people about the world around them — they grow the economies of local communities That’s according to a recently released two-year study of 300 arts organizations in a seven-county metro area.

The Colorado Business Committee for the Arts (CBCA) released its biennial Economic Activity Study of Metro Denver Culture on Nov. 7, which demonstrates the enormous financial and social impact exhibited by organizations funded by the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District.

The seven counties that receive those funds are Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson.

“The numbers are great and confirms what we ‘culturals’ have always known about the impacts the arts have,” said Cheryl McNab, director of Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center. “The SCFD is a great bang for a taxpayer’s buck and produces some amazing things.”

The SCFD distributes funds from a one-tenth of 1 percent sales and use tax to cultural facilities throughout the Denver metro area. The funds support cultural organizations whose purpose is to advance and preserve art, culture and science.

The study — conducted since 1992 — gives results taken from the 2013 calendar year and represents data gathered from about 300 organizations in the seven counties.

The numbers paint a vivid picture of just how much arts contribute to the econ-

AT A GLANCE The CBCA released its biennial report on the arts and economy — the last report was in 2011: Total economic activity: $1.85 billion in 2013, up 5.1 percent Total economic impact: $520.8 million, down only 1.2 percent Jobs and payroll: 10,205 workers, up 9 percent; $150.7 million in payroll and expenses in up 4 percent Volunteers: 44,438 volunteers contributed 1.77 million hours — the equivalent of 851 full-time employees and more than $44 million in donated time Corporate giving: $10.4 million, up 8.4 percent Cultural tourists: Up 17 percent Projected for 2028 Total economic activity: $3.82 billion Total economic impact: $989 million Jobs and payroll: 16,582 jobs omy.

According to the study, the combination of operating expenses, audience spending and capital expenditures totaled $1.85 billion in 2013 up 5.1 percent from 2011, and new money injected to the economy came to $520.8 million. That number is down only down 1.2 percent from 2011, when the state was still deep in the throes of an economic downturn.

“The study results allow us to talk about what we can do as organizations in economic terms,” said Philip Sneed, executive director of the Arvada Center. “It’s easy for some people to think of the arts as a luxury item, but we’re job creators who provide real jobs for real people.”

The jobs and payroll numbers showed significant increases with cultural and scientific organizations employing 10,205 people, up 9.1 percent from 2011. The organizations earned $150.7 million in payroll and expenses in 2013, a 4 percent in-

The Arvada Center is one of the organizations included in a recent CBCA study on economic impacts of arts groups.

One of the most startling numbers is the number of volunteers who helped out organizations throughout the metro area: 44,438 volunteers contributed 1.77 million hours. That is the equivalent of 851 fulltime employees and more than $44 million in donated time.

“We have around 300 volunteers at the Arvada Center and they do all kinds of things — the biggest is ushering at our performances, but they also do tours and help with school groups,” Sneed said. “We count on them for everything we do.”

Colorado saw the number of out-ofstate tourists participating in local arts and culture events increase by 17 percent from 2011 an increase doesn’t only benefit arts organizations.

“We have many people who go to restaurants and other businesses while they’re out for us,” said Susan Martin, Lakewood Cultural Center administrator.

“And out of town performers stay in local hotels.”

McNab, in Littleton, noted downtown Littleton businesses near the Town Hall Arts Center are major benefactors of having a cultural center close by.

Looking to the future, the CBCA study forecasts that arts benefits for the economy will only grow — by 2028 the organization projects $3.82 billion in economic activity and $989 million in economic impact. They also project 16,582 jobs by the same year.

These numbers give new and rising arts groups a goal to aim for as they continue to grow in their communities.

Lakewood’s 40 West Arts District “will qualify for the SCFD next year, and I think the study shows what the arts can do,” said Bill Marino, 40 West chair. “The whole state is seeing the effects of the arts — they elevate the quality of life while improving the economy.”

‘Songs for a New World’ gets ovation I was unfamiliar with “Songs for a New World” so I had no idea what to expect when I went to Miners Alley Playhouse.

What I learned was that composer and lyricist Jason Robert Brown is brilliant.

The production is totally comprised of songs each of which tells its own compelling story. Director Brenda Billings and Music Director Mitch Samu bring out the very best in their talented cast which is comprised of Jacquie Jo Billings, Kristen Samu, Matt Kok and Rory Pierce. Their glorious voices made my heart smile.

Song styles range from ballads to pop, to gospel, to jazz and somehow, the musical simply flows seamlessly from song to song. The set was simple with the band being center stage and the actor/singers using the sides and front of the stage. I particularly liked the projected background scenes which changed with each song. My favorite was the Aurora Borealis

com. This is a “must-see” production.

Chihuly to close Nov. 30

that filled the backdrop as Kristen Samu sang “Surabaya-Santa.”

The songs are spiritual without being religious; heartwarming without being sappy, and joyous without being syrupy. “Songs for a New World” plays through Dec. 21 at Miners Alley Playhouse, 1224 Washington Ave. in Golden.

Use the door on the south side of the building. For tickets and information, call 303-935-3044 or visit www.minersalley.

You still have a few days left to see the (Dale) Chihuly Exhibition at the Denver Botanic Gardens. The show, which opened last June, runs through Nov. 30. The blown glass works designed by Chihuly are known around the world because of their creativity and beauty. The last time I was in Las Vegas, I got to see the Chihuly works at the Bellagio. Breathtaking.

Chihuly is a visionary who has turned craft into art. A myriad of colors, textures, and shapes enhance the natural beauty of the gardens. I saw the Chihuly Exhibition in June and decided that it was imperative that I see it again ... this time at night.

Fortunately I managed to go before the (seriously) cold snap hit. It was even more beautiful than I remembered. Seeing it at

Shrader takes sheriff reins Clear win starts tenure

By Amy Woodward

awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com There’s a new sheriff in town and it’s Jeff Shrader.

“Things are going to be done differently,” Shrader said while celebrating his win with family and friends at Abrusci’s Italian Restaurant in Wheat Ridge. “Ted Mink has done a fantastic job — obviously those are big shoes to fill.”

During the Republican primaries, Shrader campaigned hard throughout Jeffco, and once he received 58 percent of the delegate vote at the county assembly, he said he knew he was a shoe-in.

He held an early lead against his Republican opponent Jim Shires at 61.60 percent of the early total of 35,307 votes cast during the primaries.

“It reflected what went on at the county assembly,” Shrader said.

At the November ballot box, Shrader garnered 150,040 total votes, capturing 72.19 percent of the vote, to beat his opponent, Libertarian Brett Almy.

His nearly 30 years at the Sheriff’s Office holding leadership positions and creating strategic management and response tactics for deputies, supervisors and command Shrader level ranks is what’s given voters the confidence that Shrader is experienced to lead and proved to be the “vast difference” between him and his opponents, he said.

“We wish Mr. Shrader luck as the new sheriff of Jefferson County,” said Jeffco Sheriff opponent Brett Almy. “I hope the issues I brought out during the election will be ad-

dressed and the deputies of the Jeffco Sheriff’s Office get the pay raises that they and their families deserve.”

Just a month before the election, Shrader discussed deputy attrition at the Sheriff’s Office.

If annualized, the attrition rate is at 20 percent, Shrader said. While he wants to make the Sheriff’s Office competitively worthy in the job market, he recognizes he will have to convince the Jeffco Board of County Commissioners that investing in public safety should be a high priority.

“I’m going to make my best case with the board of county commissioners about the priority that I think public safety should have within the county budget,” Shrader said. “I do think that 2016 is a much different year than 2015 will be budgetarily” he said, citing an increase in revenues from property values that will be hitting the county budget in 2016. “I do think that there is opportunity coming.”

night was a completely different experience. Several new pieces have been added since I first saw it.

The Denver Botanic Gardens has commissioned Dale Chihuly to create a piece that will be a permanent fixture. The work will be called “Colorado” and, according to the artist, will feature the colors of a Colorado sunset ... red, orange, and yellow. Daytime tickets for the exhibition are still available but Chihuly Nights has been sold out for some time. The Gardens are at 10th & York. For further info and tickets, go to www.botanicgardens.org. While you’re at the website, remember to check out the schedules for Blossoms of Light (York St.) and Trails of Light (Chatfield) which open soon.

Metro Creative Connection Roasted turkey is the centerpiece of many holiday feasts. That glistening, golden skin and moist meat beneath is the perfect companion to potatoes, string beans and any number of side dishes.

Many holiday chefs have received compliments on the appearance of a freshly prepared turkey sitting on the holiday serving platter. But those same chefs may not know how to properly carve up their masterpieces after the grand presentation has been made.

1. Place the turkey on a large, sturdy cutting board.

Do not cut the turkey in the pan you used to cook it.

Remove the string that may be tying the legs together.

November 20, 2014

Turn the board so that the back of the turkey is facing you.

2. Choose a sharp knife to carve the turkey. A long, narrow knife may work best. Serrated knives may tear the turkey meat, so it may be better to use a flat knife.

Some people prefer the ease of an electric knife. This is entirely your choice.

3. Cut through the skin on a leg and gently bend the leg as you slice through to expose the joint. Cut through and remove the entire leg. Then separate the drumstick from the thigh. Repeat on the other side.

4. Cut the thigh meat parallel to the thigh bone and place on your serving platter.

5. To slice the breast meat, insert your knife in the center of the breast bone and cut down until you reach the ribs. Then slice the breast meat in toward

your initial cut so you are cutting across the grain of the meat. This will keep the meat tender. Another idea is to remove one side of the breast and slice across it to produce smaller pieces for serving.

6. Find the wish bone and place it on the side to dry. Children typically like to break the wish bone.

7. Find the joint of the wings and remove them in a similar fashion as you did for the legs. They are small enough that they should not require extra slicing and can be placed whole on the serving platter.

8. Drizzle the sliced meat with any reserved cooking juices to keep the turkey moist and flavorful.

Since turkey is usually the star of many holiday meals, it pays to know the correct way to carve turkey for celebrations.

Audit finds child services wanting

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A state audit cites several areas of concern over the handling of cases within the state’s child welfare system.

The 260-page report lays out dozens of recommended fixes to “deficiencies” that were found in samplings of cases that were screened by the Department of Human Services during the 2013 fiscal year.

The findings included problems with the screening process of potential child abuse cases as well as a lack of proper state supervision over child welfare services handled by individual counties.

“The audit findings collectively suggest a need for the department to improve its supervision of the child welfare system to promote strong and consistent practices by the counties to help protect children,” reads the report, which was authored by the State Auditor’s Office.

However, DHS Executive Director Reggie Bicha strongly pushed back against some areas of the report during a Nov. 12 legislative committee hearing.

“Child welfare practice is extremely complex,” he told the panel.

The report gathers information from samplings of the 70,400 reported cases of abuse and neglect that were screened by the department in 2013.

The audit finds that in some cases, “it was unclear” whether counties followed state-mandated rules when determining whether cases warrant further investigation by the department.

Case workers’ timeliness of initial contact with families also was a concern. In a small number of cases sampled, the audit found that “caseworkers did not interview or observe children involved in child welfare referrals within county-assigned response times.”

Other samples showed some risk assessment documents had incorrect information about families and their histories,

while other reports failed to identify child safety issues.

Bicha told lawmakers that his department agrees with many of the recommendations spelled out in the audit and that many of the findings dealt with issues the agency had already been addressing.

Bicha also stressed that caseworkers do their best to assess each situation properly and said that mandating “one-size fits all” regulations does a disservice to the public and to each individual child’s needs.

Bicha particularly took issue with concerns that counties responded in contradictory or unreliable ways to auditors’ findings that state guidelines were not being followed properly.

“Having a difference of opinion, rethinking initial conclusions, or debating interpretation of law, policy and practice in a world of very limited resources should not be grounds for questioning the department’s testimonial evidence or validity or our reliability,” Bicha said.

The department has put in place a handful of reforms over the last couple of years after news reports found troubling handlings of cases involving children who died due to abuse and neglect.

Among the reforms set to launch in January will be the creation of a statewide child abuse and neglect hotline that was approved by the Legislature in 2013.

The audit was requested by lawmakers, including Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton, who is known to craft legislation focused on the protection of children.

Newell said through an emailed statement that the report “reaffirms how delicate and complex the child protection system is.”

Newell said she will follow up on the findings and that additional legislation may be taken up when lawmakers reconvene in January.

“We need to continue to work with the state department and counties on improving the system,” she said.

POWER PLAY

A frigid and wore down Ralston Valley senior Dalton Pribble is pictured moments after his team’s 71-29 victory over previously undefeated Fairview Friday at North Area Athletic Complex.

Ralston Valley skates into 5A playoff semifinals Mustangs fueled by historic effort from senior Andrew Wingard

By Daniel Williams

dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com ARVADA - No. 1 Ralston Valley skated into the 5A state playoff semifinals — literally, according to senior running back Andrew Wingard.

Wingard said Friday night’s 71-29 victory over No. 2 Fairview at North Area Athletic Complex “was like playing on a sheet of ice.”

If that was the case, the senior superstar running back led the power play brilliantly, scoring the equivalent of two hat tricks as he found the end zone six times.

The Mustangs made it look easy against a Fairview team that was undefeated, until coughing up five turnovers and running into the Ralston Valley buzzsaw.

Ralston Valley will now prepare for No. 1 Cherry Creek on Friday at 7 p.m. at NAAC. The Bruins are also coming off a big victory as they beat Regis 49-21 last week in the state playoff quarterfinals.

But the Mustangs should pause to en-

In case you did not believe the copy Ralston Valley did in fact score an incredible 71 points against a then undefeated Fairview team proven by this picture of the scoreboard with just 29.9 seconds left. Photo by Dan Williams joy their monster quarterfinal victory that featured a couple different historic milestones.

Ralston Valley and Fairview were tied

21-21 after the first quarter, of play but that was just before the Mustangs outscored the Knights 36-0 in the second half.

By the end of the game Wingard had

rushed the ball for 160 yards and five rushing touchdowns, to go along with his 95yard kickoff return for a touchdown. Oh, and he tallied nine tackles and an interception on defense as well.

“The field was frozen over and basically like playing on ice but I think that benefited our style of play,” Wingard said. “We are excited about advancing and we aren’t done yet.”

Ralston running back Kyle Rush had 118 yards on the ground off of 15 carries and a catch. Dalton Pribble had a pair of touchdowns, one by air and one by land, to add to the Mustang’s ridiculous 10-touchdown total.

Fairview was the 5A state runner up last season and looked like one of the state’s best teams this season with a prolific passing game. But freezing conditions made routes tough to run for receivers and even tougher for quarterbacks to deliver precise passes.

“The weather made things tough and we knew because of it there would be some turnovers,” Ralston Valley coach Matt Loyd said. “Winning that turnover battle was the difference maker for us.”

No. 1 Grandview will take on No. 2 Valor Christian in the other 5A semifinal matchup Saturday at 1 p.m. at Legacy Stadium.

Valor defeats Pomona Eagles win 25th straight playoff game, will face unbeaten Grandview

By Jim Benton

jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Following in the footsteps of former Valor Christian football standouts Max and Christian McCaffrey could be daunting.

Younger brother Dylan, however, just does his thing and doesn’t worry about expectations.

Dylan McCaffrey, a sophomore quarterback, accounted for five touchdowns to help the Eagles roll to a 56-34 Class 5A quarterfinal playoff victory over Pomona on an arctic Nov. 14 night at Jefferson County Stadium in Lakewood.

Max McCaffrey, now a junior wide receiver at Duke, played on three Valor Christian state title teams and Christian, a freshman all-purpose back at Stanford, set four Colorado individual career records and was on four state championship teams.

Dylan, the son of former Denver Broncos receiver Ed McCaffrey, was on last season’s Valor state championship team. He now has a chance to lead the Eagles towards a possible sixth straight state title split between three classifications.

The Eagles (9-3) face Grandview (12-0) in the semifinals at Legacy Stadium. It will be a rematch of a Centennial League game, which the Wolves won, 24-21, on Oct. 24.

“My family has always been super supportive,” said McCaffrey. “They have always told me I don’t have to live up to the expectations and if I just play like they have taught me, I’ll be good.”

McCaffrey, who suffered a concussion in a 20-13 win over Pomona in the Eagles’ first game of the season, was very good Friday, leading Valor to its 25th consecutive state playoff victory in the rematch against the Panthers.

“I thought we were able to be balanced against Pomona,” said Valor coach Rod Sherman after his team rushed for 329 yards and had 592 yards of total offense. “A lot of the credit goes to Dylan. I thought his decision making in both the run game and the pass game was excellent.

“Dylan went down in the first quarter the last time we played Pomona. His last three games have been outstanding.”

McCaffrey tossed a 14-yard TD pass to Sid Turnbull-

Pomona players scramble for a Valor fumble near the goal line. Pomona recovered but gave the ball up a few plays later on their own fumble. Game temps near 20 degrees made handling the ball a challenge. Valor went on to win 56-34 at JefffCo Stadium on Nov. 14. Photo by Paul DiSalvo Fraser, hooked up with Brandon O’Donnell on a 53-yard scoring connection and found Danny Rambo on a 14yard screen pass than went for a touchdown.

“With a strictly cover two team like Pomona, the middle was going to be open most of the time,” said McCaffrey. “It was pretty cold. I thought our offensive line played great. They played so tough. That drove our offense and we got a win.”

Valor limited Pomona’s vaunted rushing attack to 72 yards and forced Panthers’ quarterback Justin Roberts to throw 37 times. Roberts passed for 280 yards and two touchdowns. Isaac Marquez caught both TD passes and also rushed for two scores.

“The first time we played Pomona was the only time this year they had been held under 200 yards rushing,” said Sherman pointing out that the Panthers managed 58 yards in the Aug. 28 game. “For the first time in a long time we’re healthy up front. We’ve got all our guys back and hopefully that will bode well next week.

“I thought we played exceptional well. We really had four keys going into the game. Team chemistry, execution, toughness and then how much are we going to fight because we knew Pomona was really good in all four of those areas. We played really well in each of those four areas.”

In other Class 5A playoff action, Cherry Creek whipped Regis Jesuit, 49-21, Nov. 14.

The Bruins (9-3) will play unbeaten Ralston Valley (120) in a semifinal encounter at North Area Athletic Complex this Friday.

DJ Luke gained 73 yards and ran for three touchdowns for Cherry Creek as Milo Hall rushed for 150 yards for two scores and quarterback Joe Caplis completed 6-of-7 passes for a TD as the Bruins earned a semifinal ticket for the first time since 2008.

Ralston Valley routed previously unbeaten Fairview, 71-29, on Nov. 14 and Grandview notched a 28-7 quarterfinal win Nov. 15 over Fountain-Fort Carson.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF NOV 17, 2014

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) A long-sought workplace change could be happening soon. Consider reworking your ideas and preparing a presentation just in case. A personal relationship takes a new turn.

TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Your persuasiveness doesn’t really start to kick in until midweek. By then, you can count on having more supporters in your camp, including some you doubted would ever join you.

GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Your workload is still high, but -- good news! -- you should start to see daylight by the week’s end. Reserve the weekend for fun and games with friends and loved ones. You deserve it.

GALLERY OF GAMES

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Regardless of how frustrating things are, keep that “Crab” under control. A cutting comment you might think is apt right now will leave others hurting for a long time to come.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Be more sensitive to the emotions of loved ones who might feel left out while you’re stalking that new opportunity. Be sure to make it up to them this weekend. A nice surprise could be waiting.

VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22)The gregarious Virgo rarely has a problem making new friends. But repairing frayed relationships doesn’t come easily. Still, if it’s what you want to do, you’ll find a way. Good luck.

LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) A misunderstanding with a partner or spouse needs to be worked out before it turns into something really nasty. Forget about your pride for now and make that first healing move.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Communication dominates the week. Work out any misunderstandings with co-workers. Also get back in touch with old friends and those family members you rarely see.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21)As busy as your week is, make time for someone who feels shut out of your life. Your act of kindness could later prove to be more significant than you might have realized.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Congratulations.

Your busy workweek leads to some very satisfying results. Sports and sporting events are high on your weekend activities aspect. Enjoy them with family and friends.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Your generosity of spirit reaches out once again to someone who needs reassurance. There might be problems, but keeping that line of communication open eventually pays off.

PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) You are among the truthseekers in the universe, so don’t be surprised to find yourself caught up in a new pursuit of facts to counter what you believe is an insidious exercise in lying.

BORN THIS WEEK: You believe in loyalty and in keeping secrets. All things considered, you would probably make a perfect secret agent. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

D’Evelyn still on top, Golden ready to compete 4A Jeffco boys’ hoops preview

By Daniel Williams

dwilliams@coloradocommunitymedia.com The football season isn’t quite over yet but Colorado prep hoopsters are ready to take flight.

And Jeffco boys’ basketball in both classifications has a chance to be two of the best conferences in Colorado.

But 4A Jeffco in particular has two of the top 10 teams in the state in D’Evelyn and Golden — as well as a couple other teams ready to make a push towards the top of the league standings.

Expect D’Evelyn go again be one of Colorado’s best 4A programs as they return senior Grant Witherspoon, who has the opportunity to be Jeffco’s best player this season.

The Jaguars (20-6, 13-1 in league last season) were led

by Witherspoon and his 18-plus points per game to go along with averages of over five rebounds and five assists per game.

D’Evelyn with have to replace the loss of Ty McGee and three other seniors but the Jaguars remain one of the state’s deepest teams. The program made it to the Great 8 round of the state tournament last season and anything short of that this season would be a great disappointment.

Pushing D’Evelyn for a 4A league title this season will be a Golden Demons (19-5, 12-2 in league) were every bit as good of a team as the Jaguars were last season but they suffered an early playoff exit to Greeley Central after earning a first round bye.

This could be the year where Golden surpasses D’Evelyn, as the Demons return its five top players from last season. The Demons have the size and talent to make a deep playoff run, led by senior Cole Greff and junior Ryan Blodgett.

Wheat Ridge (11-14, 7-7 in league last season) and Green Mountain (14-10, 10-4 in league last season) look to be much improved and both with battle to finish in the top three of the league standings.

By the end of last season the Farmers looked like they started to get things figured out as they won five of their last six games of the season including a 60-53 victory over Erie.

Led by senior’s Willie Harris and Jordan Jones Wheat Ridge has a chance to make some noise this season.

Green Mountain also quietly has a strong season last year that was overshadowed by D’Evelyn and Golden. But the Rams could potentially be a ready to break out and by season’s end also be the third 4A Jeffco team ranked in the top ten.

Junior Austin “Give them Fits” Fritts returns after averaging over 14 points per game last season. This season he could lead all of 4A Jeffco in scoring.

Fritts and senior Rob Godshall will combine to make Green Mountain a force to be reckoned with this season.

Water year it was in Colorado Southeastern part of state gets some relief from drought

By Jim Trotter

Rocky Mountain PBS I-News The 2014 water year ended gently — for Colorado, at least — as monsoonal rains and the remnants of Hurricane Odile provided enough moisture to push even the drought-stricken southeastern quadrant of the state into the 70 percent to 90 percent of normal precipitation range.

It’s reasonable to think of it almost as an escape, as the state was cool and wet enough to avoid the massive wildfires of the previous two years, Black Forest in 2013 and Waldo Canyon and High Park in 2012, which claimed a total of more than 1,100 homes. There was no epic September flood this time around.

In comparison to California, which continues in the throes of devastating drought, and parts of Washington and Oregon, where millions of acres burned this water year, Colorado was downright fortunate.

“Water year” is a Western term, and the new one began Oct. 1. It has to do with the annual cycle that includes the first snow in the high country, the accumulation of the snowpack, the spring melt and runoff, the warm summer and whatever rain might fall.

One can forgive residents of southeastern Colorado if they’re not breaking out the party hats. While the late rains boosted moisture totals there toward respectability, the region has been locked in various stag-

es of damaging drought for years.

The U.S. Drought Monitor map, a product of the Department of Agriculture that is updated weekly, has five levels of dryness, from D0, abnormally dry, to D4, exceptional drought. Along with the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles, a big chunk of northeastern New Mexico and southwestern Kansas, southeastern Colorado has been firmly fixed with D3s, extreme drought, and D4s, as bad as it gets.

The modern map, in fact, has looked very similar to that of the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, even though, as of now, it has moderated a bit.

“Absolutely,” said assistant state climatologist Wendy Ryan from her office in Fort Collins. “As we were keeping track, particularly in 2011 and 2012, we started drawing comparisons to the ‘30s. It was as dry and as hot down there as the Dust Bowl.”

The visual elements were also there: enormous dust storms, but not with the frequency or longevity of the 1930s, and tumbleweed melees that covered highways and buried barns and houses.

“They have created havoc on the plains of eastern Colorado,” said Tobe Allumbaugh, chairman of the Crowley County Commission, of the tumbleweed conditions that began this time last year. “After three years of drought, we got moisture in the latter part of August. There was no vegetation to compete with the Russian thistle. They popped out and they were everywhere. We got more rain in September and it was like throwing fuel on the fire.

“By November they began to roll and tumble.”

That is a challenge that likely remains

from the summer rains this year.

“After the last few years, a lot of the native grasses are gone,” said Ryan. “The Russian thistle is the first plant to come back with any moisture and we saw what happened last year. They had to use snowplows to clear the highways. It’s probably going to be bad again, but maybe not quite as bad. The hope is that the grasses got enough precipitation to compete (with the thistles).”

The lower Arkansas River basin has a long way to go before recovery to normal, Ryan said. The late season moisture has allowed farmers there to get a start on winter wheat, an endeavor that hasn’t panned out in the recent drought years. The big word is evapotranspiration, which is the soil losing moisture with no rain, and through plant transpiration, or “plant sweat.”

That is pretty much what happened in the Dust Bowl. Native grasses were plowed under in order to plant wheat, the bottom fell out of the wheat market, and with drought and heat and wind, evapotranspiration took care of the rest.

The Four Corners were also dry this water year, as was the San Juan River basin, and the Rio Grande has been droughtplagued — which pretty much accounts for the southern tier of Colorado.

In the northern half of the state, the picture for this closing water year has been dramatically different. The upper Colorado River basin has been flush, and beginning after last September’s massive floods, conditions along the South Platte basin have been extraordinary. Winter wheat yields on the northeastern plains were bountiful, conditions there “beautiful,” as Ryan de-

scribed them.

A look at the “teacup” map published weekly by the Colorado Climate Center at Colorado State University also tells the story. Lake Granby is 128 percent of average for this time of year, 98 percent full.

Blue Mesa is 74 percent full, Lake Dillon is 99 percent full. Green Mountain is at 85 percent.

All of this munificence is a matter of scale, of course. Downstream on the Colorado River, massive Lake Powell was only 51 percent full recently, and, on the other end of the Grand Canyon, giant Lake Mead has been losing water after years of drought like someone pulled the plug.

Unrelated to the Colorado River but very related to water in the West is the map published last week by the California Department of Water Resources depicting water levels in the Golden State’s major reservoirs, which ranged from 12 percent to 39 percent full.

There was actually what some climate observers are calling a drought-induced mudslide on volcanic Mount Shasta in northern California. Depending on which news story one went with, it was caused by the fracturing of one of the 14,162-foot mountain’s glaciers, or the slippage of a glacier that allowed water trapped underneath to escape and tumble downhill, gathering mud and debris.

Chess great speaks out on Putin Kasparov shares his story and views with business leaders in Denver

By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Russian Garry Kasparov, hailed by many as the world’s greatest chess player, can no longer return to Moscow to visit his mother because his political activism against the government makes it dangerous to do so.

Instead, they meet in Tallinn, Estonia.

He flies in from New York City, where he now lives with his family. She comes in from Moscow.

“It’s the closest capital to Moscow, so that is where I meet my mother. She’s 77.

It’s too late for her to move to America,” Kasparov said at a Nov. 15 luncheon in his honor at the University of Denver’s Iliff School of Theology. The Colorado Business Roundtable and the Wyoming Business Alliance hosted the event.

Kasparov gave an impassioned speech to more than 60 business and community leaders about the dangers of the Vladimir Putin-led Russian government, the importance of energy independence and social and political tension between Russia and neighboring Ukraine.

“Some of the messages that Mr. Kasparov spoke to today about leadership, and globalization of the economy, and how we interact and ramifications of lack of decisions and lack of decisions of strength impact the world globally as well as us here in the United States,” Colorado Business Roundtable President Jeff Wasden said.

Born in Baku, Azerbaijan, of the former Soviet Union, one of Russia’s most famous sons rarely visits the home he has dedicated his life to trying to improve — because of political pressure. Azerbaijan, which had been incorporated into the Soviet Union in 1920, proclaimed its independence in October 1991 before the USSR officially dissolved.

Kasparov became the youngest-undisputed world chess champion in 1985 at age 22 by defeating then-champion Anatoly Karpov. He was ranked as the No. 1 player in the world for 225 out of 228 months from 1986 until his retirement in 2005.

He is also famous for being the first world champion to lose a match to a computer under standard time controls, when he lost to the IBM supercomputer Deep

Since his retirement from the sport, Kasparov has instead been trading moves in the political arena as one of the most outspoken critics of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“People always want me to compare Putin’s strategy with my chess expertise, and speaking about Russia, I always say it’s irrelevant because in chess we have fixed rules and predictable results and in Russia its exactly the opposite,” Kasparov said.

“As for the international arena, Putin plays poker and he’s a very good player. In poker it’s not about the quality of your hand, it’s about your ability to bluff. And Putin regularly has a very weak hand — say a pair of nines — but he acts as if he has a royal flush.”

Kasparov was instrumental in setting up The Other Russia, a coalition that opposes Putin’s government.

He has run for office, organized and participated in protests and even been arrested back home in Russia.

In 2007, he ran for president as the The Other Russia party’s candidate. He was forced to withdraw his candidacy in De-

cember 2007 due to his inability to rent a meeting hall where at least 500 of his supporters could assemble to endorse his candidacy, as is legally required. Kasparov’s spokesperson accused the government of using pressure to deter anyone from renting a hall for the gathering.

In August 2012, Kasparov was arrested and beaten outside of the Moscow court while attending the verdict reading in the case involving the all-female punk band Pussy Riot. He was eventually cleared of any wrongdoing with the help of video evidence from the scene that was circulated on the Internet.

Kasparov views Putin’s Russia as a global threat. Recently, he has been speaking around the world on Russia’s tensions with neighboring Ukraine and the dispute of the Black Sea boarder territory of Crimea.

He describes his adversary as a shrewd man who has mastered the art of aggression without outright military force, a man he says “wages war with banks not tanks.”

Kasparov, considered a left-leaning activist by many back home in Russia, sounds conservative by American standards. He’s an admirer of American President Ronald

Reagan and believes in strength through energy independence, the power of a credible threat and the use of military force against Putin if necessary.

“Fracking in Wyoming did more to hurt Putin’s rule of Russia than everything the Obama administration did in six years because it eventually brings oil prices down,” Kasparov said.

Many in the audience agreed with his message of a stronger stance toward Russia from the U.S. and its political allies.

“I think we are still in a strategic bipolar world, at least in regard to Russia,” said Peter Moore, president of the board for Vital For Colorado, an advocacy group for oil and natural gas. “And it has become more and more clear to me that (oil) is one of our greatest strategic tools — low-cost energy to strengthen the United States and weaken Russia.”

Kasparov also called for stronger international leadership and the necessity of nations to work in unison to stand up to oppressive governments and leaders.

“In chess we have a saying: The threat is more powerful than the execution,” Kasparov said.
