Je com looking into early-morning countywide emergencyalert calls

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Residents throughout the county were awakened around 1 a.m. Dec. 18 when phones rang, and emails and texts were received regarding an emergency down the hill.

Je com911, Je erson County’s emergency services agency, has apologized for waking people unnecessarily.

“Our sincerest apology,” Jeffcom911 said on social media. “We are aware of a Lookout Alert sent out this morning, notifying residents of a shelter-in-place that … may not have impacted (them). We are looking into the case with the vendor. We apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have created.”

Je Streeter, Je com911’s interim executive director, said the agency is working with its vendor for Lookout Alert, which is the agency’s emergency noti cation system, to determine whether it was technology or human error that sent noti cations to 160,000 people throughout the county rather than to residents in a speci c area.

e call informed residents that Lakewood police had issued a shelter-in-place order because of an

incident at 17th and Robb Street.

“ is was very unfortunate,”

Streeter said. “We apologize to everybody who was woken up. We know it’s scary and trying, and it was not our intent by any stretch.”

He hopes people won’t use this incident as a reason to opt out of Lookout Alert because it provides a vital service to warn residents of emergencies. Instead, he hopes people see these calls as an indicator that the system can work.

“While we have gotten some negative comments on social media,”

Holiday spirit

Streeter said, “honestly, we have had a lot of positive comments, too. ey said at least they know the system works, and they were noti ed.”

Streeter noted that Lookout Alert noti ed everyone in Je erson County who has signed up for the service even when they were out of town.

“If this had been something like a Marshall Fire, people who are out of town could have made arrangements,” he said.

According to a Je com911 social media post: “We know we can’t make up for any sleep lost last night,

but we hope you sleep a little better tonight knowing the glitch you experienced has been xed, and the suspect (in Lakewood) was apprehended safely.”

Moms Demand Action asks

Je co city councils for more gun regulations

With the shooting of 19 students and two teachers at a school in Uvalde, Texas earlier this year, many activists have called for more regulations on the requirements to buy a gun. For Jeffco’s Moms Demand Action chapter, it was a motivator for many of them to do the same.

Starting in Wheat Ridge in July and most recently in Lakewood in November, the activist group presented ordinances to city councils across Jefferson County during public comments that they believe will reduce gun violence, like raising the buying age to 21 and 10-day waiting periods.

“We’re not asking city council to ban all guns, we’re trying to carve out places where we can prevent deaths from gun violence, and the research says these are the areas where we can make a bigger impact,” Jeffco chapter of Moms Demand Action President Jen Dill Wohlers said.

Other cities around the metro area have similar ordinances already, she pointed out. Boulder has a 10-day waiting period before being able to buy a gun, as well as banning them in parks or other open spaces — another suggested ordinance from the group.

Boulder County also has largecapacity magazine and semiautomatic weapon bans, but they are currently being challenged in a lawsuit by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners from August. RMGO was one of multiple parties that voiced

opposition during public comment at Lakewood’s Nov. 28 meeting where Moms Demand Action presented ideas on gun regulation

ordinances.

“These are the same women who traded their red coats for their red t-shirts,” Taylor Roads, the execu-

tive director of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners said. “On behalf of thousands of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners members right here in the city of Lakewood, please never take up gun control here in Lakewood,

According to Wohler, the group did not see as vocal an opposition at other public comments because they hadn’t told other councils beforehand that they’d be speaking.

“We are not anti-second amendment, but we are anti-gun violence,” Wohlers told Colorado Community Media. “We are trying to solve the problem of gun violence by using information that is researched-backed, and evidence-

Tina Francone, a previous Jeffco commissioner from 2019, also spoke at the public comment against Moms Demand Action’s proposed ordinances. She admitted that gun violence also “horrifies” her, and continued by claiming that gun regulation does not

“Crimes and violence are committed by people not in their right mind,” she said. “By definition crimes are not committed by lawabiding citizens.”

Wohler believes that some council members and mayors in Jeffco are open to their ordinances, acknowledging that it took multiple years for Boulder to adopt what it has. The group intends on following up next year, she said, and request to be on the agenda to be able to speak longer and have a dialogue.

Je co School District presents annual financial report

BY ANDREW FRAIELI AFRAIELI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An independent auditor found three errors in the Je erson County School District’s nances.

Each year an independent audit is performed on the district’s nanc-

es, this year’s ending on June 30. All of the errors have been corrected. One error found by the independent auditor, CliftonLarsonAllen LLP, was a failure to correctly update debt payments from a charter school for the current year, while another was submitting the costs

for laptop cases to be refunded by the Federal Emergency Connectivity Fund Program, but they were not eligible.

e nal error was failing to recognize grant revenue early enough, leading to a mismatch in expenditures, revenues and receivables.

Moving forward, the District will more closely track debts in a central shared le and check it against the previous year’s statements, and the district grant accounting department will work more closely with other departments to ensure awareness of eligibility rules.

Getting Personal: Reflections on My 20 Years as a Colorado Real Estate Professional

I’m writing this from a hotel room in Athens, following an 11-day cruise of the Aegean Sea, so real estate isn’t top of mind for me right now. So, what to write about for this column? I needed something that would be easy to write, and it occurred to me to share my path from newly licensed agent over 20 years ago to where I am today. Maybe it will interest a few readers.

I was originally licensed as a Colorado real estate agent in April 2002, so I’m well into my third decade as a real estate broker. It has been a good run.

Real estate is a tough field to break into. Back in 2002, new brokers received a one-year initial license with 3-year renewals. More than half of new licensees would not renew their license at the end of their first year because they had completed few or, likely, no transactions, burned through their savings, and thought it futile to continue.

As I recall it, my gross commission income in my first year was about $7,000. In my second year, it was about $75,000, and in my third year it was $150,000. These are gross figures, because back then we were all “independent contractors” and we had to cover all the costs of being in business — computers, software, MLS dues, Realtor dues, E&O insurance, cell phones, cars and car expenses, and self-employment tax. And most of those expenses came upfront, so waiting six months or longer for a first commission check was hard for anyone who wasn’t prepared to go tens of thousands of dollars in the hole before earning a reliable income.

I had the reserves to outlast that “newbie drought,” and I did go at least $30,000 negative before going positive and ultimately becoming successful.

When a real estate license is first issued, you have to hang your license with a brokerage. You may be an independent contractor, but you can’t be an independent broker until you have two years’

experience as a broker associate and pass a 24-hour employing broker’s class.

I was drawn into getting a real estate license by attending a career night at Coldwell Banker, so hanging my license with them was the easy decision, and they had a two-week “Fast Start” class for new agents taught by Rich Sands which gave me the tools and understanding I needed to put my financial reserves to work.

“You have to spend money to make money,” I reminded myself as I launched into a full-time career as a real estate broker.

I’ll never forget what Rich said in the very first session of that 2-week intensive class. “Congratulations,” he told us new agents, “you are now licensed to sell real estate, and there are 20,000 agents out there with more experience than you. How are you going to make yourself stand out from them?”

At the time I was chair of the speakers bureau for Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver, so my first thought was that I could stand out by promising to give 10% of every earned commission to Habitat. I recall getting one listing from that offer, but Habitat would not promote it, so I dropped that promise after sending them several large checks. I’m still active with Habitat and still donate, but not a percentage of each closing.

The other thing I did — a common strategy recommended by Rich Sands — was to specialize in a particular subdivision and “farm” it for listings. The subdivision I chose was the Village at Mountain Ridge, which had just been completed on the west side of Hwy 93 in Golden.

At the time I had a yellow-naped Amazon parrot, Flower, who I referred to as my “unlicensed personal assistant” and even printed up business cards for her with that title. Countless residents or former residents of Mountain Ridge have

Happy Holidays to Our Readers, Clients & Colleagues

As mentioned above, Rita and I have spent the weeks leading up to Christmas away from home, and it’s a little weird returning to our home on Christmas Eve without having experienced any of those traditional lead-ups to the holiday.

I have had cell service throughout, including on our cruise, but the phone has

hardly rung, so it has been a delightfully quiet time — although my two listings could have appreciated a little activity!

As we move through this weekend and toward New Years, we wish all of you a Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, or a joyous religious or non-religious holiday of your choosing!

pictures of Flower on their children’s shoulders and received her business card which Flower “autographed” by puncturing the edge of it with her beak. I served free ice cream at the neighborhood picnic (with Flower, of course), and I sponsored a yearly garage sale. I also published a regular newsletter, with useful information including but not limited to the real estate market for the subdivision.

In other words, I did all those usual Realtor activities done to get known and trusted by homeowners — plus some things unique to me. It worked well.

However, you’re looking at my most successful investment. Using my experience as a journalist, which included a summer internship at The Washington Post, I chose from the very beginning to write a real estate column. At first it appeared in The Voice of Golden, then the Golden Transcript, and ultimately other Jeffco weekly newspapers and the YourHub section of The Denver Post, a regionalized section of the paper launched around 2005 offering low-cost advertising for individual segments of the paper’s larger circulation. It was so successful in generating business that for several years I have been paying for it to appear in every edition of YourHub.

At first I wrote this column only once a month, but soon I was writing it weekly, spending $30-50,000 per year to have it published in those newspapers. Almost two decades later, I estimate that I get about 90% of my buyers and sellers from long-time (and newer) readers of this “advertorial.” It has also benefited our broker associates (listed below), since I can’t service all the leads that come to me. As a result, the per-agent business done by Golden Real Estate is much higher than that of other brokerages in this market.

Of course, I didn’t know much about real estate when I started writing this column in 2003, but I knew what I didn’t know, and I would research a topic in order to write about it, and I would ask

my managing broker to review and correct what I wrote before sending it to be published. The process taught me a lot about real estate. I saw it as “my personal continuing education program.”

You’ve probably heard the expression that “you teach what you need to learn.” I needed to learn all aspects of real estate, and writing this column was how.

Most brokers with my number of years in the business have numerous initials after their name representing the certifications they have earned by taking special classes. They include Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR), Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI), Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), GREEN, e-Pro, Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES), and others. I have none of those certifications, but my writings have given me a broad understanding in all those fields. I’m not downplaying those classes and certifications — they have helped many of my fellow agents gain knowledge in each field, which is why I look for those initials myself when making referrals. Those initials evidence real knowledge.

I like to tell a story from my childhood which rings true in this context. One of my 9th grade teachers said in an end-of-term report, “Jim shows dangerous signs of becoming a dilettante.” I asked Dad what a dilettante was. “It’s a person who knows a little about everything but not a lot about one thing,” he said. “Sounds good to me!” I replied.

As I have written in the past, the biggest contributor to an agent’s expertise — in most but not all cases — besides those certifications is the number of transactions he or she has completed, more so than the number of years in the business. We learn from every transaction, and I have been blessed to have completed hundreds of transactions. The average agent completes only two or three transactions per year, and a high percentage of agents go an entire year without a paycheck. That was true in 2002 and it’s still true today.

Je co proposes $32 million in building upgrades to accommodate students from closing schools

BY YESENIA ROBLES CHALKBEAT

Je co Public Schools is beginning work on up to $32 million of projects to prepare buildings to receive as many as 2,600 displaced students from 16 schools closing.

e more than a dozen projects planned include renovating buildings to accommodate preschoolers and students with disabilities or adding more space for the increase in students.

e price tag is equivalent to about 2 1/2 years of savings from clos-

ing the under-enrolled elementary schools at the end of the school year. Most of the work is expected to be completed this summer.

Last week, school board members expressed shock at hearing the $32 million price tag, and ursday decided they might downsize some of the larger projects once they have more accurate enrollment projections for the next school year.

e district assured the school board that it expects to be able to cover the cost of those projects with $12 million the board had already agreed to set aside from bond

money for such work, and with the savings of about $17 million in bond projects that will no longer happen at schools that are closing. e district also expects the projects to likely come in under the estimated $32 million, which includes conservative contingency costs.

District leaders told the board that the project costs are onetime expenditures, and that the district will still see ongoing savings from closing those 16 schools.

A domestic violence-related shooting led to a woman being hospitalized with multiple gunshot wounds on the 3600 block of South Sheridan Boulevard in Lakewood, according to the Je erson County Sheri ’s O ce.

The shooting occurred on the morning of Dec. 17 by Justin Herley, 50, whom the Sheriff’s Office claims was known to the victim. The victim was brought to a local hospital the same day and is in stable condition.

A shelter-in-place order was put out for the Bear Valley Club Apartment complex nearby while of-

ficers from the Denver, Lakewood and Wheat Ridge Police searched for Herley after he fled through a nearby field.

Officers eventually found Herley on the 10400 block of West 44th Avenue in Wheat Ridge later that day dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, the Sheriff’s Office claims.

The investigation is ongoing.

PROPOSAL

FROM PAGE 5

Brenna Copeland said.

e school board ursday night considered pausing some of the work due to the cost and uncertainty about the need, but decided that it didn’t want to risk not having enough space for students when school starts next fall.

Instead, it approved contracts to begin the rst project: an addition at Prospect Valley, which is receiving new students from Kullerstrand, including a special needs program.

e board plans to revisit the scope of the contract early next year, when it has enrollment numbers from the rst round of choice applications.

Currently, Prospect Valley is slated to get an addition that includes eight new classrooms, including two classrooms designed for the a ective needs program. e addition is expected to increase the building capacity to 650 students, but currently the district projects the school will enroll around 560 students next year.

If the projection is correct, the current building’s capacity might already be enough, though district leaders cautioned that letting a school reach near full capacity limits how e ectively principals can manage class sizes, especially when the number of students isn’t distributed evenly per grade level.

Still, some board members weren’t convinced the school needs eight new classrooms.

“Why are we even going that high right now for 650?” said board member Danielle Varda.

Board members also questioned how the district might examine costs to renovate receiving schools when it considers recommendations to close secondary schools next year. At the secondary level, the district has almost nished the planned projects.

Copeland said that although the district has limited funds, o cials

already have some ideas where it might get the money for retro tting secondary schools after possible closures. By then, the district might have started selling or leasing some of the empty elementary buildings, making some capital funds available.

e district also could use leftover unallocated bond dollars.

District leaders say they don’t yet know what factors they might consider when deciding which secondary schools to close.

With elementary schools, the district closed schools that had fewer than 220 students or were using less than 45% of their building’s capacity, as long as there was another elementary school within 3.5 miles that could absorb the students. Costs of renovations weren’t calculated until after the 16 schools were identi ed. e district doesn’t yet know what enrollment or capacity thresholds it would set to close secondary schools, or if it would use different factors. Leaders said it was too early to say if building renovation costs could play into the decision.

But Copeland said the district is not interested in making the decisions primarily about money.

District leaders have said that the problem with small schools is that education suffers when teachers have to be responsible for students of multiple grade levels within one classroom, when teachers can’t collaborate with colleagues who teach the same grade level, and when schools can’t offer afterschool programs and other enrichment.

“Very consistently, parents told us ‘My student is not a number; please don’t make these decisions based on that,’” Copeland said. “I very much don’t want the financial calculation to be a primary driver.”

Colorado challenges 13,000 speed inaccuracies

More reporting needed

BY TAMARA CHUANG THE COLORADO SUN

A federal e ort to map out and better understand who in America has decent internet and who does not is already getting challenged by those in the know, including the Colorado Broadband O ce, which has submitted 13,000 challenges of the data.

e map is just a few weeks old.

And the state isn’t done challenging the data collected by the Federal Communications Commission, said Brandy Reitter, executive director of the state’s broadband o ce.

“ irteen thousand is a lot but likely doesn’t include all missing locations,” Reitter said. “We are still submitting locations that are missing and not accurate to the FCC. Most of what is missing is located in higher density areas of the state that have experienced the most growth over the last several years. We will keep identifying these locations until the FCC maps are accurate. It’s an ongoing process.”

e map is also preliminary and its accuracy could help states like Colorado gain millions in federal infrastructure grants. is is also the start of a major FCC overhaul to improve the accuracy of federal broadband maps. e old map would count an entire census block

even if just one house had internet speeds of at least 25 megabits down and 3 up. at resulted in the vast majority of Colorado appearing to have adequate broadband.

Look right? In the new Federal Communications Commission preliminary broadband map released in November 2022, the blue indicates full broadband coverage while the green hexagons show mobile broadband service. e white hexagons indicate the unserved or underserved communi-

Are

ties. But notice, there are no white hexagons in Colorado. You can check your address and challenge the FCC’s classi cation of your home at broadbandmap.fcc.gov

“ e problem is that the FCC’s maps had previously relied on information that failed to paint the whole picture of who did and who did not have the internet,” FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel said in a statement announcing the new map. “ e net result was maps that were overly optimistic, lacked location-speci c information, and subsequently glossed over gaps in coverage.”

But the FCC knows the new map may not be accurate so it’s asking consumers to chime in, too. e “pre-production draft” map, available online at broadbandmap.fcc. gov, allows consumers to challenge inaccuracies for their home by pressing the “Challenge Location” button.

Here’s the FCC video showing how to challenge the broadband status of an address:

“Individuals who see that the information on the maps does not match up with what they know from their lived experience will be able to submit challenges, or request corrections, directly through the map interface,” Rosenworcel added.

e FCC is accepting challenges through Jan. 13. But a big reason to get the data right is that there’s $42.5 billion at stake. Called BEAD, which is short for Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment, the federal program plans to invest money to build infrastructure and upgrade service in unserved or underserved areas with prioritization for ber-based internet that o er gigabit speeds, or 1,000 megabits.

If regions aren’t correctly counted, they could miss out on attracting federal dollars to improve internet service, said Anna Read, senior o cer at e Pew Charitable Trusts Broadband Access.

“Each state gets a $100 million baseline, but the remaining funding will be allocated based on a formula, which will be based on these new maps and the number of unserved locations in those states,”

Read said.

Other states are also taking steps to improve their funding outlook. New York challenged 31,000 addresses. Pennsylvania is hosting webinars to encourage residents to challenge locations with incorrect internet data. Hawaii launched an e ort this week appealing to residents to help crowdsource internet service to help the state receive up to $250 million more than its allocation, reported news site Honolulu Civil Beat.

“ e accuracy of those maps and having an accurate representation of unserved locations is very important to the funding allocations,” Read said.

For the new map, the FCC asked internet providers to share the speci cs of the areas they serve. But the map is limited to what internet providers shared about available service and “does not include factors like quality or reliability of service or pricing,” Reitter pointed out.

Some advocates for rural broadband said the maps are “quite inaccurate” and the FCC is relying on local governments to x the issue.

“My house is reported to be served by a wireless company that told the FCC it can do 1,000/1,000 Mbps. When I looked at their website, they wanted to charge $100+ for 2 or 3 Mbps connections,” said Christopher Mitchell, director of the Community Broadband Networks at the Institute for Local Self-Reliance, which has provided guidance to many Colorado communities on

Worst Colorado avian flu outbreak kills bald eagles

BY MICHAEL BOOTH THE COLORADO SUN

Bird u has killed at least four bald eagles in Colorado and threatens hundreds of other rare raptors and wild birds, as Colorado agriculture and wildlife o cials struggle with an outbreak they call the worst in national or state history.  Colorado’s current bout with avian in uenza has already forced farmers to mass slaughter more than 4 million chickens from egg operations, and now wildlife o cials worry the highly infectious disease may have contributed to a 15% to 20% drop in successful eagle nesting this year.  Bird experts fear for dozens of year-round bald eagles in the northeastern Colorado corridor of reservoirs and wetlands along the South Platte River, after a mass snow goose die-o killed more than 2,000 birds near Julesburg/Jumbo Reservoir. Waterfowl pick up the disease from saliva, mucous and feces of other birds. Raptors and other carrion birds also spread the disease feeding on carcasses undiscovered by wildlife o cials or neighbors.  Raptor centers like Rocky Mountain Raptor Program in Fort Collins

are taking in a steady stream of great horned owls and red-tailed hawks dying from the fast-acting virus. Sta are donning Tyvek protective suits and other PPE in an e ort that is more hospice than rescue.

State wildlife o cials assume there are more dead bald eagles than the four con rmed so far in 2022 by tests of carcasses. With fewer than 300 nesting pairs of bald eagles making their homes along Colorado’s waterways, losses from any new threat to the more rare raptors quickly raise warning levels.

“As someone who really loves birds, and that’s why we chose this profession, I am hurting,” said Zach Hutchinson, a naturalist and community science coordinator for Audubon Rockies in Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. “And I am really nervous as to what this could become.”

With thousands of waterfowl and other migratory birds on the move across Colorado on their way to comfortable winter ground, infections could increase even as farmers take desperate measures to stop the virus in domestic ocks. e state’s updated listing of avian u deaths now includes two snow goose dieo s of more than 2,000 birds in late November in Morgan and Logan counties, and another report urs-

CAG Thrift Store & Food Pantry

As the temperatures drop and inflation continues to rise, the importance of the CAG Food Pantry is more important than ever. To provide the funding needed for the increase in food supplies and growing number of families seeking food assistance (60% increase) the CAG hosted their second “Shop for a Cause” on a beautiful October Saturday afternoon. Shoppers were able to buy good quality branded clothing donated by the Golden community while enjoying the bluegrass music of the Back Yard Grass band. The event generated more than $3,400 in operating funds that will be used to buy food to supply the food pantry. “With food prices increasing so much, the need for our pantry has been growing every month, and the proceeds of the boutique sale will make a huge impact in letting us serve more people and offer more types of food,” said Executive Director Kelly Ivan.

In addition to the shopping, guests enjoyed beverages provided by several local small businesses: Miners Saloon, Golden City Brewery and High Altitude Kombucha!

The CAG team is very appreciative of the many volunteers, sponsors and guests who made this fun afternoon a great success. Stay tuned for more exciting news about our Christmas Under the Tree event coming soon.

Lawns require special care in winter

ing areas of your lawn. Keeping this area as protected as possible with slightly taller grass creates a barrier-like protection for the grass blades and stolons.

GUEST COLUMN

Valerie Smith

Wi nter lawn care for a wide variety of turfgrasses slightly differs from that of spring, summer and fall. Your lawn is no longer in the active growing season. In fact, most warm season lawns go dormant around this time.

Lawn care in the winter is still just as important as other seasonal maintenance practices as your winter care will greatly determine how well your lawn comes out of dormancy in the spring.

Although you shouldn’t have to spend as much time maintaining your lawn during the active growing season, winter lawn maintenance is still a vital part of caring for your lawn.

How to mow your lawn in the winter

It’s getting cooler outside and it’s obvious that you won’t need to mow as frequently as you have been all year. Our recommendation is to keep your grass a bit taller than normal.

When grass is too short, it doesn’t offer as much protection for the base of the grass blades and allows frost to get into the grow-

Be careful not to mow your lawn if there’s a lot of moisture from snow or ice as this may damage the grass blades. Make sure the lawn is dry and only mow when temperatures are about 40 degrees Fahrenheit.

Now is an excellent time to service, or winterize, your lawn mower so that it’s fully operational and ready for the spring once mowing season resumes!

How to water your lawn in the winter

Irrigation maintenance practices during the winter aren’t usually as important in areas that receive rain or snow. In most areas, you will just need to water your lawn less than the active growing season.

However, if you are in an area that receives a really dry winter, be sure to water your lawn enough so that the soil receives nourishment and keeps grass blades from drying out. Your lawn is dormant— this doesn’t mean it is dead and doesn’t still need water.

Corvids: Redefining “birdbrain”

In 1963, Jane Goodall stated, “In modifying a natural object to make it suitable for a specific purpose — the chimpanzee has reached the first crude beginnings of tool making.”

Her discovery of chimpanzees fashioning termite fishing poles from sticks changed the way scientists thought of humankind’s superiority. Weren’t only humans capable of crafting tools?

Move over, primates! Despite the lack of fingers, certain songbird species have demonstrated the ability to create tools and solve complex problems, in some instances surpassing the capabilities of apes and young children.

The family of Corvidae, which include ravens, crows, magpies and jays has demonstrated superior analytical abilities, deep emotional capabilities, engagement in play and trickery and remarkable language skills.

Researchers recorded more than 64,000 raven vocalizations from 37 raven pairs. According to crow musicologist Eleanor Brown, each family of crows has its own vocabulary of sounds, some which they share with other groups but many are distinct. By comparison, an average 3-year old child’s vocabulary consists of 1,000 words.

Corvids use their ability to mimic sounds and

conduct pranks seemingly for their own amusement.

In one instance, a zookeeper reported that magpies would visit the zoo and mimic the voice of an employee who fed the chickens. The chickens would rush to the eat the food, and though the magpies repeated the trick many times, the hapless chickens never figured out the prank.

Reportedly, the ravens at the Tower of London will squawk “keep the path!” to tourists, and in Evergreen, Steller’s jays have been observed mimicking red-tailed hawks, perhaps to ruffle the feathers of their avian neighbors?

Laboratory and field studies of crows’ analytical abilities continue to impress researchers. The biggest problem-solving incentive for the birds involves food rewards.

In Japan, crows were observed picking walnuts from nearby trees and then dropping them

The best winter fertilizer for lawns

Fertilization should generally take place during the active growing seasons such as the spring, summer and fall. There is really not a need to apply fertilizer once temperatures consistently drop below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s similar to giving someone a pill while they are sleeping—it won’t be as effective.

It’s best to prepare your lawn with the nutrients it needs to survive winter dormancy during the fall. Learn more in our blog, Fall Secrets to Achieve a Healthy Spring Lawn.

However, when spring comes, it will be time to fertilize your lawn. Researching different fertilizers that match your lawn’s needs is something you can go ahead and start doing. The Lawnifi®Spring Fertilizer Box is an easy-to-use liquid fertilizer program powered by Catalyst TechnologyTM to help plants better absorb nutrients with the use of less product.

Watch for winter weeds

Keep an eye out for winter grass weeds. Applying an herbicide during the winter isn’t always effective since your lawn is dormant, which is why it’s best to apply products preventively in the fall.

Some research has shown that it’s safe to apply glyphosate, a nonselective herbicide, on dormant

At Oxford University, researchers established a captive colony of New Caledonian crows. In one experiment, a crow named Abel flew off with a hooked wire, the only tool in the room that was designed to allow access to food, leaving his friend Betty with only straight wires. In a flash, Betty picked up a straight wire, stuck one end of the wire under a piece of tape at the base of the experiment apparatus and using her bill and body weight, she pulled the wireand bent it into a hook. Triumphantly, Betty negotiated the remaining challenges and

bermuda grass to kill off other weeds without damaging the bermuda grass. The efficacy of this is not as high as it would be in warmer temperatures, but it can still be done when applied properly.

If you have a lot of weeds, make note to apply a pre-emergent herbicide in the fall next year to prevent them. Common winter weeds to look out for include:

Purple Deadnettle, Chickweed, Annual bluegrass (Poa annua), and Henbit

Weed control products and other winter lawn treatments aren’t as effective in the winter as other times of the year, which is why it’s best to apply these products preventively in the fall season before temperatures get too cold. Read and follow product labels thoroughly.

Winter lawn insects to look out for

Most pests are going to be inactive at this time since it’s so cold outside. However, oftentimes insects and pests will burrow under objects in the lawn like lawn ornaments, toys that have been left out, weeds, rotted branches, etc.

A good way to keep them from overwintering in your lawn and causing damage in the spring again is by removing a lot of these objects from your lawn so that pests don’t have a place to take shelter from the cold.

Either hand-pull or apply a postemergent herbicide to keep any weeds that have survived cooler

temperatures and consider relocating any lawn objects to your garage or outdoor shed.

You can also apply a broad-spectrum insect control product to treat any insects or bugs you may spot in the meantime.

Certain insects like grub worms, ants, fleas, ticks, chinch bugs and spiders are sometimes known to survive during the colder parts of the year if they have places to take shelter.

Insect control products aren’t as effective in the winter as other times of the year, which is why it’s best to apply these products preventively in the fall season before temperatures get too cold. Read and follow product labels thoroughly.

How to control lawn disease in the winter

It’s pretty difficult to detect most lawn diseases during the winter season—especially if you have a warm season lawn that goes offcolor and dormant as temperatures drop.

Oftentimes, symptoms of disease don’t begin making an appearancze until the spring as the lawn greens up and disease patterns are easier to distinguish.

It’s still a great idea to apply dis-

ease control products preventively during the fall to keep diseases from taking over during the winter season. You may still notice some lawn diseases like snow mold.

Disease control products aren’t as effective in the winter as other times of the year, which is why it’s best to apply these products preventively in the fall season before temperatures get too cold. Read and follow product labels thoroughly.

Avoid excessive traffic

Your grass is probably dormant, meaning it’s not going to put a lot of energy into restoring itself after heavy traffic. Taking as much care of your lawn as you can by reducing traffic while it is “asleep” is one of the best preventative maintenance practices you can perform.

It keeps your grass from having to spend a bunch of energy restoring itself when it comes out of dormancy. Instead, let your grass focus its energy on flourishing as it comes out of dormancy.

asylum-seeker charts

BY ROBERT TANN COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Amid turmoil, a single mother strives to nd community in the Denver metro area after leaving hers behind

In late 2018, a woman now raising her daughter near Denver made a life changing decision. She would leave her home country of Venezuela, a choice she did everything she could not to make.

e woman, a single mother in her mid40s, had been enjoying an ambitious life of public service with a career that began in the government’s transportation department when she was barely 19. She went on to become a nurse, a lawyer, a radio host and eventually to teach at the college level.

A threat on her life changed everything.

“I didn’t choose to leave until I had a gun pointed to my forehead,” she said, recounting the day military o cers broke into her home and threatened her life. “I fought hard not to try to move to Colorado. It was really, really hard.”

Having seen “so many injustices, so many inequalities” in her country, the woman charted a path of helping others. But the rise of Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela’s president since 2013, altered her trajectory. She viewed Maduro’s government as a brutal regime and spoke out against it, attending protests and using her platform as an educator to call attention to human rights abuses that have beendocumented by United Nations investigators.

at is how she became an asylum-seeker in Denver – one of thousands of immigrants in the area who’ve ed their home country, fearing for their safety.According to TRAC Immigration, a database of federal immigration data compiled and published by Syracuse University, Denver’s immigration court reviewed 2,875 applications for asylum between scal years 2018 and 2022.

As she currently awaits a court’s verdict on her asylum, which will determine her legal status in the United States, the single mom has found some security. In 2020, she and her daughter, who is middle school-aged, received temporary protected status — a form of legal protection which allows some immigrants to live and work legally in the U.S. but which must be renewed every two years. Venezuela isone of 15 countries designated for this protection by the federal government.

According to Violeta Chapin, clinical professor of law at the University of Colorado Law School, the protection is meant for those living in the U.S. facing situations that make it “impossible for individuals of that country to return back.” ose with this protection “have no immigration status, they’re just protected from removal for a temporary period of time,” Chapin said.

It means until a decision is made on her asylum case, the woman remains in a legal limbo, according to Chapin. If she is granted asylum, it a ords her more access to the social safety net along with greater work opportunities. If she is denied, she can still hold on to her temporary status and seek to renew it over the coming years, but she will not be recognized as an immigrant and could face deportation if her status is not renewed.

“ e United States immigration system is extraordinarily restrictive,” Chapin said. “It’s set up to make it very di cult to lawfully enter and live in the United States.”

‘Who was going to trust me?’

e days leading up to the woman’s departure from her home country were a desperate blur. As threats on her safety escalated, a colleague living in Denver reached out to help. Her son, in his mid-20s, ed to Peru on foot, where he lives today.

Before leaving, the woman sold everything she owned, including her car, for about $1,300. With enough money in hand to ee, she ew to Denver with her daughter and another resident who was living in their former apartment complex.

Of the few possessions she brought with her was a binder full of her credentials. Degrees. Licences. Awards and honors.

With her career experiences, she had hoped to buoy her survival in America and secure a good-paying job to support her family. But within days, doubt began to set in.

“Who was going to trust me,” she said. “I felt seen as an intruder, but I had so much to o er.” e colleague who o ered help found them an apartment to rent in the Denver suburbs. He put his name on the lease because she lacked the paperwork to get one on her own and charged her $900 for a deposit.

But after 10 days, they were all kicked out. Her colleague had become emotionally and mentally unstable, she said. e neighbor who had own to the U.S. with her decided it was time to part ways and has not been seen since, the single mom said.

It was December and the days were becoming shorter, darker, colder.

“It was the middle of the winter with a little kid, I didn’t know what to do,” the woman said. “I’m running out of money, but I cannot go back to Venezuela.”

Solace came when she turned to her daughter’s school district, where she had enrolled her daughter in a middle school while they were housed. A parent of one of her daughter’s friends o ered them temporary stay at their home while she looked for a new apartment.

Public schools have been a crucial pillar of support for undocumented residents, according to Chapin.

at’s thanks to a 1982 Supreme Court ruling, Plyer v. Dow, which prohibits public school districts from denying enrollment to the children of undocumented immigrants.

With a temporary roof and place to sleep, the single mom knocked on door after door wherever she saw an apartment available, worried that she was overstaying her welcome.

But deposits for every apartment she found were

$1,000 or more, nearly eclipsing what money she had saved. And “everyone asked for papers,” she said, of which she only had a passport.

“What really surprised me, now looking back, is the lack of solidarity, the lack of empathy for people,” she said. “I was not here because I wanted to. I had to run away.”

Some relief came when a friend living in Miami sent the woman cash for a deposit. With it, she found a studio apartment outside Denver that a landlord allowed her to lease. ough rent was about $1,000 per month, she cut a deal with the landlord for $200 o in exchange for her cleaning the outside of the building. Her deposit was $1,300. She said she couldn’t have been more grateful.

“All I had was my word, and he took it,” she said.  e woman had no access to safety net programs like SNAP, formerly known as food stamps, so she turned to a nearby church for nourishment. Whatever money she had left from the month would sometimes go to a toy for her young daughter. e woman said she was determined to provide whatever momentary escape she could for her.

But the fear of losing everything, of coming up a few dollars short for her rent, always loomed large for her. It still does.

‘Thousands, millions’ living in uncertainty

When the single mother applied for asylum in 2019, she could not a ord a lawyer to help with her case, though she has since found voluntary legal aid.

Chapin said U.S. immigration courts do not provide free public defenders for asylum-seekers. And whether an applicant has a lawyer or not can make a huge di erence in the outcome of their case, Chapin said, with most asylum cases being denied.

According to the Syracuse University database, of the more than 5,000 immigrants who applied for asylum through Denver’s immigration court between 2001 and 2022, more than 2,900 were denied. e

An

her path in the Denver suburbs

single mom does not know when her case will be decided.

“ ere are a lot of people applying for immigration and asylum bene ts, there’s a lot of stress on the system right now,” Chapin said.

e single mom found some comfort when, in 2020, she and her daughter were granted their protected status. Since then, she has worked “everything, anywhere,” her heavy binder of credentials going unnoticed as she took jobs cleaning hotel rooms and serving food in restaurants.

Even with multiple jobs, the woman said she faced nancial uncertainty as she struggled to pay for housing, food and everything in between.

“You have to take on so many hours to work,” she said. “In this county to survive you need at least two jobs.”

In 2020, she moved to a new apartment, allowing her daughter to be closer to her school. But during the COVID-19 pandemic, her landlord raised rent from $1,050 to $1,350. Again, she moved.

Shortly before 2021, she found a onebedroom apartment in a Denver suburb where she lives today. It is dotted with reminders of home, including her country’s ag hanging in the living room and photos of her son on the wall. She pays $1,200. Her deposit was $500. “I have no ability to save,” she said. “Deposits were a big burden.”

Recently, her income has steadied. She now works at an embroidery shop where she brings in about $2,000 each month. e rest she makes up driving for food delivery services, a job that at least a ords her the opportunity to spend more time with her daughter. ey listen to music on those drives or just talk.

rough all the discord, she said she’s worried most for her daughter’s well-being. When she can she’ll make a homemade meal, something healthy, usually Venezuelan.

For herself, she has gone through some therapy programs after becoming depressive and anxious. She does not want her daughter to feel the burden of her mental health, she said. What she wants more than anything now is to make a home where she can, for herself and her child.  Chapin said the woman’s story of survival is the same as “thousands, millions of immigrants, who live this existence every day.”

To build something beautiful e asylum-seeker said she is still waiting for the hard work to pay o , to see the “end of the tunnel.” But beyond just surviving, she wants to thrive.

“ e time that I’m supposed to be here in the United States is to build something beautiful, is to give something back,” she said. “A home is love, work, dedication, solidarity.”

She is currently taking online classes through Metropolitan State University of Denver in social communications, hoping to use the education to land a job in social work and reignite her passion for building community.

ough she has seen growth in her English skills over the past four years, she wants to take college classes to improve her prospects of a career. e most inexpensive course she found was about $6,000 per semester at the Community College of Denver — too much for her to spend currently. at money instead goes to rent.

While the change in her living situation has “been night and day,” she said it’s precarious. It would only take a rent increase of about $200 for her to no longer be able to a ord her apartment, she said.

“I’m living in the present right now and that’s all I can a ord to think about,” she said. “Yes, I can only pay so much and yes, we are in a very tight budget. But, I get to spend quality time with my daughter … we only have each other.”

According to Chapin, there are numerous reforms to U.S. immigration policy that could bene t residents living in uncertainty. About 11 million immigrants are undocumented in the U.S., Chapin said, and sta ng issues have left immigration courts across the country backlogged. For many immigrants, it can mean years waiting for a decision on their future.

Even with temporary protected status, many still face low-wage jobs as their only choice for employment. It is di cult for immigrants to translate credentials they earned in their home country to work in the U.S., Chapin said, and doing so comes at a large nancial cost.

Allowing immigrants to use their qualications to work more skilled jobs and authorizing citizenship for most of the 11 million already here “would bene t the economy tremendously,” Chapin said, given the U.S. is “desperate for labor.” is need has been a major driver behind the immigration reform championed by U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, who represents Colorado’s 6th congressional

district.

“We have a lot of people in Colorado who’ve immigrated from all over the world who have some substantial skills,” Crow said, “and it takes a long time to translate those licenses and certi cations.” is fall, Crow helped introduce the bipartisanBridging the Gap for New Americans Act, which passed in both chambers of Congress before President Joe Biden signed it into law Oct. 17.

Over the next year, the legislation will direct the U.S. Department of Commerce to study how it can expedite translating out-of-country credentials. Crow said the ndings will likely spur more legislation to overhaul the process and allow immigrants more access to higher-wage professions.

“ ey can buy homes, they can enter our economy more fully, they can send their kids to college,” said Crow, who added this would be crucial to “addressing the sustainable workforce shortage in our country.”

But beyond the potential economic impacts, Crow said immigration reform is a “moral issue.”

“When the current laws and systems don’t treat people with basic dignity and respect, that alone is the reason to reform and change this,” he said, adding he is “optimistic” of bolder immigration legislation still to come.

For immigrants like the single mom in Denver’s suburbs, she is determined to build on her new life as she strives to nd what she loved most about her home: a sense of belonging. Often her mind wanders to her home country, to what she’s left behind. She talks every day on the phone with her son in Peru, who’s made a family of his own with his partner and their child.

Clasped safely in the folds of her heavy binder, amid her many certi cations and credentials, is a letter from him.

IMMIGRATION DESIGNATIONS

The United States has numerous designations for a person’s immigration status, each with its own caveats that dictate the legality of what a person can and cannot do. Here are what some of these statuses mean according to immigration lawyer and law professor Violeta Chapin:

Refugee: Refugee status is granted to immigrants before they leave their home country. Refugees are authorised to live and work legally in the U.S. and are eligible for safety net programs but cannot vote. Most recently, a large amount of refugees in the U.S. have been from Afghanistan and Ukraine.

Asylum: This is similar to refugee status but is granted to someone after they come to the U.S. Because asylum can take months or years to be processed, some immigrants have the option of pursuing a temporary status in the meantime to a ord them some legal protections and work authorization.

Temporary protected status: This status is only for people fleeing turmoil from certain countries. Currently, the U.S. has designated 15 countries for temporary protected status. Once granted, it must be renewed every two years and does not allow recipients to be eligible for federal programs, though they can be eligible for some state benefits depending on state law.

Green card: This status, officially called a lawful permanent resident but more commonly known as a green card, a ords immigrants nearly all the benefits and rights as a U.S. citizen with the exception of voting. For asylees, those granted asylum, they must wait one year after receiving asylum to apply for a green card. Green cards typically need to be renewed every 10 years.

Naturalization: The final stage of immigration. With naturalization, immigrants are considered fully legal U.S. citizens and can vote in any and all U.S. elections. This status does not need to be renewed. Asylees can apply for it five years after receiving asylum and will need to pass a civics test to receive this status.

Despite all the oceanic exploration humans have done over the years, it remains a largely unknown and mysterious place. But visitors to the Denver Museum of Nature & Science’s new exhibit, “Unseen Oceans,” will get to glimpse a world that most of us can’t begin to imagine.

“Over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface consists of oceans. is exhibit highlights the life that lives at every level of the Earth’s oceans,” wrote Dr. Paula E. Cushing, Senior Curator of Invertebrate Zoology at the museum, in an email interview. “It also highlights the amazing technological innovations that have allowed humans to explore deeper and deeper and to continually discover new species living under the waves.”

“Unseen Oceans” runs at the museum, 2001 Colorado Blvd. in Denver, through Sunday, April 9. e exhibit is organized by the American Museum of Natural History, New York.

According to provided information, visitors will get to explore a series of galleries that showcase the vast variety of marine environments and introduce some of the scientists who are using the latest tech innovations to do their work.

“Visitors will be introduced to some of the tiniest life forms (the plankton) that make up the majority of species living in the shallowest zone of the ocean, to the most bizarre creatures living in the deepest depths,” Cushing wrote. “Visitors will also get to interact with shadows

of sh `swimming’ on the exhibit oor and will even get to experience driving a submersible and sampling life on the ocean oor.”

Other highlights include a “ sh tornado” that shows the various color and bioluminescent adaptations that di erent sh have evolved to live in the low light conditions of the deeper layers of the oceans and an example of specimens from the museum’s own collections.

At a time when the planet is losing much of its biodiversity, understanding and protecting life in the ocean is more important than ever. So, while the exhibit provides an opportunity to explore and entertain, enlightenment certainly isn’t o the table.

“Visitors will exit the exhibit with a greater appreciation of the evolutionary adaptations species have evolved allowing them to live in the extreme conditions of darkness, cold, and pressure found in the deeper layers of the oceans,” according to Cushing. “ e exhibit also touches on the challenges facing the Earth’s oceans through climate change but it does not emphasize these challenges, which I nd refreshing, in these days when we seem to be bombarded with `doom and gloom’ messages.”

Stuck With Silver: Mines football falls to Ferris State in title game

Bulldogs defeat Orediggers 41-14 to win NCAA Division II National Championship

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While they were hoping to strike gold, the Colorado School of Mines Orediggers will have to settle for silver.

e Mines football team is taking home the NCAA Division II RunnerUp trophy after losing 41-14 to Ferris State in the Dec. 17 title game. e Orediggers, who nish the season 13-3, were hoping to win the program’s rst national title.

Instead, the 14-1 Bulldogs won their second-straight title, holding the trophy aloft in the McKinney, Texas stadium.

“My boys — my team — never quit, never gave up,” Mines coach

Brandon Moore said after the game. “ ose guys, they’re warriors. And I appreciate every single last one of them for what they do every day, for the sacri ces they make.”

Starting o on the wrong foot

Right out of the gate, the Bulldogs had the Orediggers o -kilter, scoring a touchdown early and then containing the most explosive o ense in Division II.

Mines senior quarterback John Matocha and his receivers struggled to connect. ey were sti ed by sacks, dropped passes, de ections and su ocating defense.

Meanwhile, at the other end, Ferris State racked up two eld goals and another touchdown. Just before halftime, the Bulldogs had a pick-six to make it 27-0.

At halftime, the Orediggers only had seven rushing yards, 14 passing yards and two rst downs.

day of more than 600 snow geese in Prowers County.

“We are de nitely concerned about the wild birds. We know those migratory patterns are really what helps spread the virus,” said Olga Robak, communications director for the Colorado Department of Agriculture. e handful of large egg producers now trying to replace slaughtered ocks still face avian u threats from wild birds remaining near or crossing over their farms.

=“ is has been the largest outbreak in Colorado and the nation, ever,” Robak said.

In past outbreaks, wild birds appeared to be carriers of the in uenza but did not usually su er from symptoms themselves, Robak said. “ is year, the outbreak has affected many more wild birds, and even some mammals, like foxes and skunks, than in years past. Including raptors.”

While all bird losses are upsetting to rescue crews, Colorado has larger populations of owls and hawks to absorb losses, said Mike Tincher, rehabilitation coordinator at Rocky Mountain Raptor Program. How raptors with far fewer numbers emerge from the current outbreak is still an open question, he added.

“A lot of bald eagles come from up north, and they spend the winters here because we have relatively mild conditions,” Tincher said. “And they follow the food supply, which happens to be lots and lots of geese.

So, with them being opportunistic scavengers, that’s a big concern.” e wildlife and agriculture agencies want the public to call in reports of carcasses or live birds behaving erratically, but they warn against touching any remains. Signs of sickness include swimming in circles or erratic patterns, lethargy and inability to y. Humans have only rarely contracted avian in uenza, but the virus is easily spread on shoes or clothing to other birds and vulnerable animals.

e state’s list of con rmed avian in uenza deaths in wild birds includes eagles, hawks, owls, teals, mallards and wood ducks, and

turkey vultures. Song birds and backyard birds do not appear to be heavily impacted so far, perhaps because they do not mix as much with

the waterfowl that are the primary spreaders.

State and federal o cials are still working with the large egg operations to clean up and decontaminate after losing millions of chickens to quarantine e orts. Colorado estimates 4.7 million chickens were destroyed by last week. e chickens are usually killed en masse by locking down the large holding sheds and either smothering them with carbon dioxide, re ghting foam, or by stopping ventilation and allowing the resulting heat rise to kill the ock. Authorities want the dead birds buried in excavations on site rather than further the spread.

Destroying that many living creatures is the most devastating part of the outbreak so far, Robak said.

“It is a very hard and emotional thing for the people who are responding to this emergency, but especially to the people who own these operations,” she said. “ is is their daily life. is is what they do.”

Researchers hope to learn more about the behavior of the virus

Green Mountain girls hoops heating up heading into Winter Break

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — After an 0-3 start to the season, Green Mountain’s girls basketball has righted the ship.

“It was tough to start 0-3 and we are still missing girls due to injuries and illness,” Green Mountain’s rstyear head coach Matteo Busnardo said. “We are just trying to get our rotation down and our personnel. We had a talk after that third loss as a group. We talked about how we have to play a lot better. ey have responded.”

e Rams (4-3 record) captured their fourth straight victory in a home matinee Dec. 17 against Chat eld (2-3). Green Mountain held on for a 44-38 victory to keep the momentum going heading into Winter Break.

“ is week we focused on Chateld,” Green Mountain junior Taylor Ellington said. “We knew they were quick and would come out pressing us. We just needed to focus on getting the ball in and being con dent with it.”

Ellington was con dent with the ball in her hands in the second quarter. It looked like things could go south when Green Mountain senior Jayda Maves picked up her third foul with more than 5 minutes left in the second quarter.

e Rams went nearly 6 minutes from midway through the rst quarter until midway through the second quarter without scoring. Green

Mountain’s once 11-2 lead turned into a 13-11 lead for the Chargers.

“It’s hard when our best player is on the bench with three fouls,” Ellington said of the situation in the second quarter. “It messes up the momentum and gets into everyones’ heads. We need other people able to take over and score.”

Ellington scored on three diving layups in the second-half of the second quarter and also made a free throw to put up 7 points with Maves

on the bench. Sophomore Avery Freedman also drained a 3-pointer to help give the Rams a 21-16 lead at halftime.

“I told Jayda that we needed her in the second half and to be patient,” Busnardo said. “Taylor stepped up into that scoring role and Avery was great.”

Maves returned in the second half and ended up with 15 points. Ellington also nished with 15 points. e two were key in the nal minute

holding o the Chargers.

Chat eld sophomore Josie Lynch hit a 3-pointer with 2:14 left in the fourth quarter to cut the Rams’ lead to 38-37. However, Maves went 3-for-4 from the free-throw line in the nal minute and Ellington drained a pair of free throws with 8 seconds left to seal the victory.

“For Jayda to be out (in second quarter) and for us to adjust to pull it out shows how hard we play and how much grit the group has,” Busnardo said. “It was a full team e ort.”

Green Mountain returns after the New Year to host Glenwood Springs on Jan. 4.

“We’ve got to stay hungry,” Busnardo said of the mentality he wants his girls to having during the break. “With how Green Mountain has done in the past we know team are coming for us, especially in league play. It will be good to have a week o and get some rest, but when we come back we have to pick it up right where we left o .”

Chat eld still has some action before heading into Winter Break.

e Chargers head to Phoenix to play three games in the 2022 Nike Tournament of Champions. Chateld faces St. Mary’s (AZ), Lone Peak (MT) and Huntington Beach (CA) over a three-day stretch from Dec. 19-21.

Lakewood outlasts Wheat Ridge on the hardwood

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

WHEAT RIDGE — e old Je co rivalry between Lakewood and Wheat Ridge is alive and well.

“It’s a rivalry game and everyone wants it,” Lakewood junior guard Julian Duran said. “Whoever comes out on top is the team that wants it the most. at was us tonight.”

Lakewood grabbed a 55-49 road victory in boys basketball action at e Barn over the Farmers on Dec. 16. Duran and fellow junior Sam Silburn led the way for the Tigers (5-4 record). e two combined for 33 points to spearhead a victory for Lakewood before heading into Winter Break.

“ at kid, we’ve challenged him,” Lakewood coach Daryl Johnson said of Silburn. “He is a multi-sport athlete and a Swiss Arm knife when it comes to sports. We challenge Sam to give us what we need and he did that tonight.”

Silburn had a team-high 17 points where his work on the inside yielded several easy buckets to complement Duran’s speed in attacking the basket.

“I wanted to win for my team,” Duran said. “I was going to do anything it

took to get the win.”

Duran sliced through Wheat Ridge’s defense on several nifty drive to the baskets. His 3-pointer early in the fourth quarter and then driving layup in the nal minutes helped keep the Farmers from erasing what was a 13-point lead after the rst quarter.

“Our kids were more focused on o ense than defense,” Johnson said after the Tigers jumped out to a 13-point lead after the rst quarter. “We didn’t defend well and Wheat Ridge started scoring at the foul-line. at is why they caught up.”

Wheat Ridge brothers — Sam and Isaac McCune — both scored 17 points in the loss, but after the rough rst quarter the Farmers came close, but never could manage to take the lead. “ at has been our problem all year, slow starts,” Wheat Ridge coach Vince Dowd said. “We have a young group and that is just a part of the learning process. I think this game will help us in the end.”

Wheat Ridge (1-6) cut the Tigers’ lead down to 4 points on several occasions in the fourth quarter, but Lakewood was able answer. Junior Brandon Bazan-Torres had a big 3-point play with 1:30 left in the game with a layup and foul to push the Tigers’ lead to 52-46.

Mines seemed to nd some o ensive rhythm in the third quarter and tried to chip away at the de cit. e Orediggers got on the board thanks to a reception by senior running back Michael Zeman, but the Bulldogs responded with a touchdown of their own.

In the fourth quarter, Matocha connected with senior wide receiver Josh Johnston for a 14-yard touchdown pass. However, time was not on Mines’ side, and the Bulldogs seemed content to eat up the clock while driving for another touchdown.

As the clock nally hit zero, Ferris State celebrated its 41-14 victory and second-straight national title. Overall, the Bulldogs sacked Matocha six times and limited him to 208 total yards and two touchdowns. “Obviously, Ferris is a phenomenal

“I’m just lucky to be apart of this rivalry,” Johnson said after Lakewood got above .500. “It wasn’t the prettiest of games.”

Lakewood has a few more non-league games against Pomona and Monarch the week after Winter Break before diving into its Class 6A Je co League schedule. e newly formed conference features No. 3 Valor Christian and No. 7 Ralston Valley.

“We have a big chip on our shoulder,” Duran said of the upcoming league schedule. “We’ve been grinding, grinding, grinding non-stop. Teams can sleep on Lakewood if they want, but when we are on the oor we are going to give the best we’ve got.”

Johnson admitted he isn’t a fan of the homeand-away format in the newly formed 6A Je co League. Johnson said he would rather have an end-of-season conference tournament and play each team one during league play than having a 12-game league schedule in the 7-team league.

Wheat Ridge has one nal game before the New Year. e Farmers host Ponderosa on Tuesday, Dec. 20.

Dowd said he did see some positive signs in the loss with the Farmers ghting back after falling behind by double-digits early on.

“We just haven’t put a whole game together,” Dowd said. “We are working on it.”

team and a phenomenal defense with some great players,” Matocha said. “But, o ensively, I think that we just needed to execute a little bit better. I think there were opportunities for us to take advantage of some mistakes, and play our game.”

The road to 2023

While it wasn’t the nish the Orediggers had hoped for, the weekend o ered some smaller victories.

Matocha won the 2022 Harlon Hill Award — the Division II equivalent of the Heisman Trophy — and Zeman added to his career touchdown record during his last game as an Oredigger.

Mines also enjoyed time in the national spotlight leading up to and during the game, which was televised on ESPNU.

Dozens of Mines students were in attendance thanks to a $100,000 donation by the Denver Broncos’ ownership group, and hundreds of alumni and other fans made the trip to McKinney to cheer on the team.

Most of the 6,300 attendees were Oredigger fans, stadium o cials estimated.

“I want to thank our fans, our alum, and our students for coming all the way down here and supporting us,” Moore said. “We had a great showing, and it was a tremendous opportunity and a tremendous environment that they provided us.”

Oredigger fans have been incredibly supportive throughout the postseason, Matocha added, describing how that’s a big reason why the team made it to the title game. He hoped to return next year and “win it all for them and make them proud.”

Just as the Orediggers built on 2021’s successes this year and cleared the semi nal hurdle to make it to the title game, Moore believed they will build on this year’s historic season and nally take home the gold in 2023.

“We’ve inched a few steps further every year,” he continued. “We came up short this year. But, we’re excited for the future, and we fully expect to

come out and win next year.”

One last ride

A few days before the game, 16 Orediggers celebrated graduation with their teammates and coaches in McKinney. Dec. 17 marked the nal game for the seniors who’ve “poured so much into the program and been so in uential to our underclassmen,” Moore said.

While it was hard to see them end their careers with a loss, Moore wanted them to know that they’ll always be a part of the Mines football family.

Wide receiver Tristan Smith, who played his nal game as an Oredigger Dec. 17, was grateful for all of his experiences and relationships at Mines, both on and o the eld.

He believed the football program was heading in the right direction, saying, “I’m so proud of this team, and so grateful for the support we have at Colorado School of Mines. ... I know they’ll be back (at the championship).”

this because the FCC o ers no real penalties for ISPs that simply lie about their coverage.”

Even internet providers are puzzled.

“Generally, the FCC map is showing the state as well-covered, which most Coloradans know isn’t the reality. Part of this mismatch has to do with the way the 182-acre hexagon blocks are created,” said Stacie McDonald, a spokeswoman for Visionary Broadband, which o ers ber-based internet service in Gunnison and Kremmling and is adding service in Cañon City, Lake City, Marble, Pagosa Springs and Walden.

“For example, our employee has a 200 Mbps connection at his home, so their entire 182-acre hexagon is showing as o ering 200 Mbps, which is not the case,” McDonald continued. “Along with ISPs, citizens can also report their coverage, which can assist Colorado in getting their full BEAD allocation, since it’s based on the number of unserved locations.”

Colorado is also targeting faster speeds for everyone in the state.

and bird reactions as the outbreak rages on. State wildlife o cials had been capturing live bald eagles and tagging them for tracking as part of another study, and that tracking is proving valuable in watching avian u survival.

e female in one nesting pair watched by the state is one of the bald eagle u deaths, Conrey said. Researchers have been watching the male partner’s movements since then.

“He’s own over his nest a couple of times, but he’s own all over the state and down into New Mexico and back. So he’s de nitely alive and doing OK if he’s making those kinds of long-distance movements,” Conrey said. Researchers want to know

Moving forward in Colorado, the unserved will include communities with download speeds below 100 megabits and 20 up. About 14% of the state is considered unserved or underserved at under 100/20 Mbps, and that includes urban areas like the Denver metropolis.

But Reitter said she needs to hear from the underserved Coloradans, who can share what’s actually happening at their home.

“While the FCC maps are an important resource, they only show reported broadband availability from ISPs who chose to provide their data,” she said. “(We) need help from the public to understand what is being advertised as being available to customers vs. what they are actually receiving as far as speeds and service at their location.”

Colorado puts on display the stark truth about how the U.S. federal and state governments mistreated Arapaho, Cheyenne and other Native American tribes — breaking treaty after treaty.

Listening stations allow attendees to hear oral histories from descendants of survivors of the Sand Creek Massacre. Numerous display boards about the history of the Arapaho and Cheyenne tribes allow people to learn more about their way of living. Additional exhibit highlights include tipis built in Cheyenne and Arapaho styles, Native American clothing and historical documents from investigations of the massacre. Audio guides are available in four languages: Cheyenne, Arapaho, Spanish and English.

Descendants of survivors of the attack demanded changes to the exhibit. e museum closed the display in June 2012 and started working with Native Americans to produce a new, enhanced exhibit. us, a 10-year partnership between History Colorado and the three tribal nations — the Northern Cheyenne in Lame Deer, Montana; the Northern Arapaho in Riverton, Wyoming; and Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes in Concho, Oklahoma — began.

“ e Sand Creek Massacre is sacred,” said Gail Ridgely, Northern Arapaho, in a news release. “Historic remembrance, educational awareness and spiritual healing are very important for the Cheyenne and Arapaho people.”

Party: Luis Torres

address Phone Number: E-mail: cameronluis08@aol.com Case Number: 22DR966

ALIAS SUMMONS FOR ALLOCATION OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITIES

To the Respondent named above this Summons serves as a notice to appear in this case.

If you were served in the State of Colorado, you must file your Response with the clerk of this Court within 21 days after this Summons is served on you to participate in this action.

If you were served outside of the State of Colorado or you were served by publication, you must file your Response with the clerk of this Court within 35 days after this Summons is served on you to participate in this action.

You may be required to pay a filing fee with your Response. The Response form (JDF 1420) can be found at www.courts.state.co.us by clicking on the “Self Help/Forms” tab.

The Petition requests that the Court enter a Order addressing issues involving the children such as, child support, allocation of parental responsibilities, (decision-making and parenting time), attorney fees, and costs to the extent the Court has jurisdiction.

Notice: Colorado Revised Statutes §14-10-123, provides that upon the filing of a Petition for Allocation of Parental Responsibilities by the Petitioner and Co-Petitioner, or upon personal service of the Petition and Summons on the Respondent, or upon waiver and acceptance of service by the Respondent, an automatic temporary injunction shall be in effect against both parties until the Final Order is entered, or the Petition is dismissed, or until further Order of the Court. Either party may apply to the Court for further temporary orders, an expanded automatic temporary injunction, or modification or revocation under §14-10-125, C.R.S.

A request for genetic tests shall not prejudice the requesting party in matters concerning allocation of parental responsibilities pursuant to §14-10124(1.5), C.R.S. If genetic tests are not obtained prior to a legal establishment of paternity and submitted into evidence prior to the entry of the final order, the genetic tests may not be allowed into evidence at a later date.

Automatic Temporary Injunction – By Order of Colorado law, you and the other parties: 1. Are enjoined from molesting or disturbing the peace of the other party; and 2. Are restrained from removing the minor child(ren) from the state without the consent of all parties or an Order of the Court modifying the injunction; and 3. Are restrained, without at least 14 days advance notification and the written consent of all other parties or an Order of the Court, from cancelling, modifying, terminating, or allowing to lapse for nonpayment of premiums, any policy of health insurance or life insurance that provides coverage to the minor child(ren) as a beneficiary of a policy.

If you fail to file a Response in this case, any or all of the matters above, or any related matters which come before this Court, may be decided without further notice to you.
