NEWS-PRESS

The longest-standing objectors to the Douglas County School District’s education reform efforts repeat the same concerns now that they did from the start: The board of education and top administrators are too focused on their efforts to set a national model, and not focused enough on constituents’ concerns.

Parent Laura Mutton has spent hours researching DCSD data, releasing her findings on her Strong Schools Coalition website after she said district officials ignored her efforts to communicate with them.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office has opened a new eight-bed medical unit at the Robert A. Christensen Justice Center, due to what had been a lack of space needed to treat special populations and mental-health patients.

The new unit has already begun treating inmates and signals the completion of the justice center expansion project.

The total cost of the project was $25 million, and it was completed on time and on budget. It was funded by the justice center sales tax that was approved by voters in 1995 and extended in 2007.

“The vision and commitment to better serve our citizens, employees, judges and inmate population while also increasing Med unit continues on Page 13

Social-media effects examined

Seminar looks at reasons for, symptoms of Internet addiction

SIGNS, SYMPTOMS OF INTERNET ADDICTION

LOSING TRACK OF TIME ONLINE: Do you frequently find yourself on the Internet longer than you intended? Does a few minutes turn into a few hours? Do you get irritated or cranky if your online time is interrupted?

By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com From “retweets” to “likes” and “shares,” how has social media and the Internet changed the way we measure our lives? And has that change led to negative and unintended consequences?

At a Jan. 15 seminar at the Douglas County Events Center titled “Social Media & Addiction,” Jim Baroffio, a psychologist, and Dennis Ballinger, a licensed counselor and program manager at the Arapahoe Douglas Mental Health Network, explored the idea of technology-related addiction.

The event was hosted by the Douglas County Prevention Work Group.

Baroffio spoke on what he described as the “techno self.”

“It’s basically an identity that is developed that is very specific to that means of technology,” Baoffio said.

According to Baoffio, the way we communicate, even down to the phrasing of the words and how long our attention span for a topic of conversation is, can be related to the platform we use to communicate — in this case social media.

A 2014 Pew Research Center study titled “Social Media Update 2014” found that 71 percent of American adults who are online use Facebook and 52 of adult users now

HAVING TROUBLE COMPLETING TASKS AT WORK OR HOME: Do you find laundry piling up and little food in the house for dinner because you’ve been busy online?

Perhaps you find yourself working late more often because you can’t complete your work on time — then staying even longer when everyone else has

use two or more social media sites.

Seventy percent of Facebook users post at least once per day, while 45 percent make multiple posts per day, according to the study.

And for the first time, more than half of all online adults ages 65 and older (56 percent) use Facebook.

This represents 31 percent of all seniors.

“We communicate so much nonverbally. How much of that do we lose in social media?” Baroffio said.

While use among adults has grown, Baroffio said his concern was for young people and children who may be so plugged in that they fail to develop needed social skills.

Baroffio points to millennial behavior such as looking at a smartphone while trying to have a conversation with another person as an example of a missed social cue.

He said that the gap in social understanding may come from the fact that people of a certain age were either not born yet or don’t remem-

ber a time before the Internet and instant connectivity.

“Youth today don’t have that reference point, and I think there’s something very compelling there,” Baroffio said.

Is it simply a matter of altering social norms, or have our machines moved from important tools to addictive techno-drugs?

Ballinger sees these Internetbased escapes as creating more of a psychological compulsion or obsession than a physical addiction, for the most part.

“With something like video games, people get obsessed with them because it gives them a sense of mastery,” Ballinger said. “I found something I’m good at and I want to keep doing it.”

Ballinger said he would categorize something sexual like a pornography addiction to be closer to a physical addiction like drugs.

“This is communication. Some aspects I’m concerned about, but in some ways we’re communicat-

gone home so you can use the Internet freely?

ISOLATION FROM FAMILY AND FRIENDS: Is your social life suffering because

of all the time you spend online? Are you neglecting your family and friends? Do you feel like no one in your “real life”— even your spouse — understands you like your online friends?

FEELING GUILTY OR DEFENSIVE ABOUT YOUR INTERNET USE: Are

you sick of your spouse nagging you to get off the computer or put your smartphone down and spend time together? Do you hide your Internet use or lie

ing more than we ever have,” Ballinger said. “Children are far more open than I think they’ve ever been.

When we’re working with parents, I tell them `go online and read their Facebook. You’ll know everything about them because they document every minute of their day now.’”

Ballinger acknowledged that there are some serious concerns about the constant use of social platforms, such as cyberstalking and cyberbullying — a problem he said may in part be exacerbated by the fact that children who may be bullied at school no longer get a reprieve outside of it because of social media.

“They get bullied all day at school and then they come home and get bullied online all night and it just becomes a thing that they can never walk away from,” Ballinger said.

Ballinger said the best predictor of abuse is to look at how technology is affecting a child’s life.

“If you have a kid that’s doing really well in school, who is involved

to your boss and family about the amount of time you spend on the computer or mobile devices and what you do while you’re online?

FEELING A SENSE OF EUPHORIA WHILE INVOLVED IN INTERNET ACTIVITIES: Do you use the Internet as an outlet when stressed or sad, or for sexual gratification or excitement? Have you tried to limit your Internet time but failed?

GETTING SOCIAL The percentage of online adults who used social media websites in 2014: Facebook: 71 percent Linkedin: 28 percent Pinterest: 28 percent Instagram: 26 percent Twitter: 23 percent Source: Pew Research Center in social activities, they’re having meaningful relationships with others, but they spend a lot of time on the Internet or playing games — I look at that more as a personal choice than something that is impacting their life negatively,” Ballinger said. “If you have a kid that doesn’t brush their teeth or doesn’t want to go to school and just wants to spend all day playing video games and not interacting with others, then that’s concerning.”

CORRECTIONS • In an article in last week’s News-Press, Castle Rock’s taxincrement financing tool was incorrectly referred to as a tax measure.

• A measure regarding term limits for Castle Rock boards and commissions passed on first reading but will need to be approved by town council on a final vote. That was not made clear in an article in last week’s News-Press.

• An article in last week’s edition called “Vying to have voices heard” included an error about Douglas County School District’s Community Relations’ staffing levels and budget. The department’s adopted 2014-15 budget,

which includes salaries for seven employees, is about $792,000. That amount is almost double that of five years ago; in 2009-10, the staff included four employees operating with a budget of about $403,500.

Water Tower Center gets new boutique Elizabeth merchant opens second location

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com After finding success with her women’s boutique in the small but historic town of Elizabeth, Denise Blodig decided to open a second location in the growing town of Castle Rock.

“I just think the whole town of Castle Rock is starting to boom,” Blodig said.

Her shop, Twisted Wardrobe Designs, is located in the new Acme Water Tower Center, 823 S. Perry St. “It’s kind of like this is a landmark — the architecture and everything. It’s just a great fit,” Blodig said.

Twisted Wardrobe’s original store also has a unique location in the historic Carlson Building on Main Street in Elizabeth.

The Carlson Building, 239 Main St., was listed as a historical building by the Colorado State Registry in 1995. The 1890 building has the typical look of late 19thcentury storefronts.

It contained a variety of retail and wholesale enterprises and contributed to the commercial history of Elizabeth.

Blodig was looking for something similar in her new location.

“I didn’t want to be over on Founders at all,” said Blodig, who ran a coffee shop in Castle Rock in the early 1990s. “I was here before all of that was here a long time ago and I like the small-town feel.

I think it’s great, and I think everyone complements everybody from the restaurants to the boutiques. We each have different things and I think we all bring people to town for different reasons.”

Twisted Wardrobe, which opened on Nov. 22, specializes in the latest women’s fashions and accessories.

Prices range from $15 to $85.

“Fashion is constantly changing, so I’m always going to different markets trying to pull different things,” Blodig said.

Undersheriff values community connections Holly Nicholson-Kluth graduated from FBI academy

By Christy Steadman

csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com It was basically like attending college, said Douglas County Undersheriff Holly Nicholson-Kluth.

“You go to classes and do the physical fitness stuff during the day,” she said. “We would have speakers at night, and on the weekends, we took some field trips.”

Nicholson-Kluth was one of 215 law enforcement officers from across the United States and around the world to graduate from the FBI’s National Academy at Quantico, Va., on Dec. 19.

The education and knowledge Nicholson-Kluth received at the National Academy is invaluable, Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock said. It “will enrich her management Nicholson-Kluth skills,” and provide her with “even better leadership of the office.”

The National Academy offers 11 weeks of advanced investigative, management and fitness training.

Nicholson-Kluth had the option to choose her courses, she said, based on her interest or subjects she felt would best benefit her jurisdiction. Nicholson-Kluth took five bachelor and graduate level courses: three courses on leadership, one on contemporary drug issues and one on media relations.

The biggest key Nicholson-Kluth brought back from her studies at the academy is the importance of a connection with the community, she said.

“The sheriff’s office has a great relationship with Douglas County citizens,” she said. “Having strong connections, maintaining those connections, developing more connections, is only going to benefit us as a department, and the community as a whole.”

Nicholson-Kluth is proud to have been able to represent the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office at the academy and share some of the successes the office has seen throughout the years with others in her classes, she said.

“I found out that when it comes to programs, policies, procedures, certifications,” she said, “we are a top-of-the-line sheriff’s office. Not just in the state, but in the nation.”

Nicholson-Kluth, 54, has been in law enforcement since 1989, when she started with the patrol division for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. She was sworn in as undersheriff on July 23, 2014.

She never had the desire “to go anywhere else” other than Douglas County in her career, she said.

Douglas County Undersheriff Holly Nicholson-Kluth shakes FBI Director James Comey’s hand at the FBI’s National Academy graduation on Dec. 19. NicholsonKluth was one of 215 law enforcement officers to graduate. The academy offers 11 weeks of advanced investigative, management and fitness training. She said the biggest key she brought back from the academy is the importance of a connection with the community. Nicholson-Kluth is one of 215 law enforcement officers to graduate from the FBI’s National Academy Dec. 19 at Quantico, Va. Nicholson-Kluth started in the patrol division for the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office in 1989. She was sworn in as undersheriff on July 23, 2014. Courtesy photo nation, she said, so along with promotions inside the department, “there are always opportunities here.”

Nicholson-Kluth is the first female undersheriff to serve Douglas County, but her gender has never held her back, she said, and she’s always felt she’s had the same opportunities as everyone else.

“I feel like for every person that didn’t feel like I should be a police officer, or felt like I shouldn’t be in a supervisory position,” she said, “there were 10 more people who were encouraging me, and supporting me.”

At the academy, she interacted with proud women in law enforcement, supervisory positions and women-in-command, she said.

“And there were many, many men that have good women role models in high positions that they really respect,” Nicholson-Kluth said. “And that feels good.”

Nicholson-Kluth was born in New Jersey. She moved to Colorado when she was 10 years old. She attended Heritage and Smokey Hill high schools, and went on to Arapahoe Community College, where she studied administration of justice.

She holds a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and earned her master’s degree from Regis University in psychology, with studies in forensic and organizational psychology, as well as

adult learning.

“I’m proud of being in law enforcement. I’m proud of representing the government and the justice system. I’m proud of the ability to make it safer for people,” Nicholson-Kluth said.

“It’s very satisfying. It feels good to be able to help people.”

She and her husband, Arlan Kluth, who is an officer with the Littleton Police Department, will be celebrating their 24th wedding anniversary this year. They have two children, a 19-year-old daughter who recently went off to college, and a newlywed 22-year-old son.

Her leisure time is spent doing outdoor activities, Nicholson-Kluth said, and she especially enjoys hiking and biking.

She has climbed three of Colorado’s 14ers, and has plans to climb another this summer.

Nicholson-Kluth lives in Douglas County, so she cares for the community, she said. She wants the public to know that the sheriff’s office’s best intentions are with the people of the community.

“I want to keep the public’s perception of us high. I never would want them to think that we were doing something that would serve us, as opposed to (serving) them,” Nicholson-Kluth said. “Our goals are to protect them. That’s what we’re here for.”

New county officials sworn in Repella will serve as chair of commissioners

By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com The newest members of Douglas County government have been sworn in, and the county commissioners have a new chairperson.

Six officials were sworn in for their first full terms Jan. 13 at the Philip S. Miller building in Castle Rock. Before the ceremony, the outgoing county officials — Assessor Teri Cox, Clerk and Recorder Jack Arrowsmith and former Sheriff Dave Weaver — were honored and led the room in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Parker resident Weaver now serves as a Douglas County commissioner. He was replaced as sheriff by fellow Republican Tony Spurlock of Highlands Ranch, who served on an interim basis before

winning election to the office in the November election.

Eighteenth Judicial District Judge Paul King presided over the ceremony.

Sworn in for their first elected terms were: Assessor Lisa Frizell, R-Castle Rock; Clerk and Recorder Merlin Klotz, R-Parker; Coroner Jill Romann, R-Castle Rock; Weaver as county commissioner for District I; Spurlock as sheriff; and Surveyor Robert Snodgrass, R-Highlands Ranch.

Diane Holbert, R-Parker, was sworn in for her second term as treasurer.

Later that day during the commissioners’ meeting, Jill Repella, a Highlands Ranch Republican, was named the new chair of the board.

In addition to her work in Douglas County, Repella ran for lieutenant governor as the running mate of Bob Beauprez in 2014, in a race won by incumbent Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper.

Commissioner Roger Partridge, RSedalia, previously served as chair.

“I appreciate the board giving me the honor to represent the board as chair,

and I want to thank Commissioner Partridge for really taking control last year as chair,” Repella said. “I know it was a very unique and different year, with things happening and the interim commissioner coming in.”

Weaver, who served as Douglas County sheriff from 2005 until July 2014, replaced former Commissioner Jack Hilbert, who resigned after accepting a position with the Colorado Department of Human Services’ Child Welfare Protection Division.

Hilbert served two terms as a county commissioner.

Weaver was appointed to the seat on an interim basis before running as a Republican candidate for the commissioner seat and winning election in November.

Weaver was named vice-chair of the board.

“We are looking forward to this year and accomplishing great things this year, as we have reputation to do here in Douglas County,” Repella said.

New state rep ready to dig in Neville cites politician father as his mentor

By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com It may be Patrick Neville’s first term in the state house, but the Army veteran is prepared to lead.

“I’ll probably take a similar approach to my years as a solider,” Neville said. “It’s my job in to take in as much information I can, analyze it and make the decisions that are best for my constituents. To me, it’s just another way to serve.”

Neville, R-Franktown, was elected to the House District 45 seat in the November election after winning 69 percent of the vote and defeating Democratic challenger Brandon Wicks.

Neville is a Colorado native and Iraq war veteran with a degree in economics from the University of Denver. In the Army, he served in numerous combat and non-combat leadership positions

and obtained the rank of captain before returning home in 2009.

Upon returning to the states, Neville and his wife Christi moved to Douglas County with their children.

He is the son of state Sen. Tim Neville, who was elected to the Senate District 16 seat this year and has previously served as the representative for HD 22 from 2011-3013.

Patrick calls his father his role model and mentor.

Neville ran on a conservative platform promising to protect Second Amendment rights and fight to ensure personal liberties for citizens.

“I want to fulfill my campaign promises and Neville reward the faith the faith the voters put in me,” Neville said.

Though he said it is still too early in the session to know all of the bills he will be supporting or sponsoring, he said he does hope to sponsor a piece of legisla-

tion that would require electronic signature verification for elections — an issue that was raised during the August special election in Castle Rock.

“We had problems with that during the election this year in Castle Rock and I think it’s an easy fix,” Neville said.

Neville also said he will be supporting legislation that protects Second Amendment rights and hopes he and fellow Republicans will be able to work on a measure that gives business owners more of a say in state regulations that govern their industries.

Neville is a proponent of school choice and said he hopes to see legislation that will help people make decisions on education “around dining room tables.”

While Democrats still control the state House, Republicans rose to power in the Senate in November — a split that has left some to wonder how the two parties will govern and if they will be able to cooperate.

“It’s probably too early to say, but I’m optimistic we can do what’s in the best interest of Colorado,” Neville said.

Area leaders put face on pro-fracking effort Douglas residents tout controversial practice

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Some south metro-area residents are lending their faces and voices to the fracking debate, appearing on pro-fracking fliers published by Coloradans for Responsible Energy Development.

CRED, a nonprofit formed in August 2013 by publicly traded Texas-based companies Anadarko Petroleum Corp. and Noble Energy, describes the fliers as part of a broader education effort on the widely debated practice.

Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is a technique that uses pressurized liquid to fracture rock and release natural gas and oil from deep in the earth.

Among the Douglas County faces featured on the glossy mailers are Douglas County School Board member Meghann Silverthorn, Lone Tree City Councilmember Kim Monson and Colorado Business Roundtable president Jeff Wasden.

“The mission and focus is to help folks get the facts on fracking — what it is, what it isn’t, and in this case, how it benefits them,” CRED spokesperson Jon Haubert said. “We find so many people have no idea that the vibrant oil-and-gas-driven economy here in Colorado does benefit them.”

Silverthorn, Monson and Wasden all say they investigated the pros and cons of fracking independently before agreeing to appear on the fliers. None received compensation for their participation.

“One thing we teach our kids to do is to look at all the information, use the scientific method and critical thinking to come to your own conclusion,” Silverthorn said, adding she did just that with fracking issues. “After weighing all the pros and cons, in my opinion, taxpayers come out ahead. (Some) of the revenue overall statewide from fracking comes back to education, so it’s not an additional tax burden on the people of Douglas County.”

Silverthorn’s flier cites a University of Colorado study that says the oil and gas industry “brought more than $204 million in benefits and savings into Colorado schools in just one year.”

Haubert couldn’t confirm how much the Douglas County School District has received.

“I have not seen a Douglas-specific figure,

though I imagine it is not record-breaking,” he wrote in an emailed response. “Funds tend to go where energy development occurs via property and severance tax (i.e. taxes paid on minerals extracted.)”

At present, fracking is not underway in Douglas County.

A map from a University of Colorado study on CRED’s website of the distribution of 2012 property tax revenue from oil and natural gas activity shows Douglas County School District received no funds. School districts in Arapahoe and Elbert counties received $490,000 and $180,000 respectively.

Additional funding for education is provided indirectly to school districts from the oil and gas taxes that go into the state general fund, and are redistributed into state education funds.

Still another source of school funding is from federal mineral leases, according to the study. DCSD received about $9,600 in funds distributed from those federal mineral leases in 2014.

Parent Heather Ertl questions Silverthorn’s involvement in CRED’s campaign.

“I think a school board member shouldn’t be promoting fracking in the manner that she is,” said Ertl, a fracking opponent. “She’s an elected official who apparently holds the respect of some people in our community.

“She’s making it sounds like our schools are really benefiting from fracking,” she said. “It’s a twist of the truth.”

Silverthorn’s largest fall 2013 campaign donation came from oil and gas man Alex Cranberg. Cranberg, chairman of Aspect Holdings LLC, gave $25,000 each to the four ultimately successful, pro-education reform candidates.

“Regardless of whether Mr. Cranberg had given (me) money or not, the oil and gas industry does benefit our schools here,” Silverthorn said. “I find it interesting that a lot of people seem to think that because he gave money to my campaign, I must owe him something. That’s not the way my principles work.”

Silverthorn also said she is speaking for herself, not the rest of the school board or DCSD. Haubert said the benefits to Douglas County go well beyond education. In 2012, the industry was directly or indirectly responsible for 774 Douglas County jobs, and almost $80 million in total labor income.

Wasden, who lives in Highlands Ranch and owns PROformance Apparel in Littleton, said

the natural gas industry helps his business and others grow and create jobs.

“I think people in the metro area don’t understand how important this industry is,” he said. “There are over 6,000 jobs in Arapahoe County that support or tie directly into oil or gas. It has a big, significant impact.”

Heavy equipment at Wasden’s apparel shop consumes a lot of energy, he said.

“Low-cost, sustainable, reliable energy is important to our store,” Wasden said. “And

certainly as an American, I like American domestic energy produced here at home that supports American jobs and families.”

Like Silverthorn, Monson speaks in support of fracking as an individual, not for the City of Lone Tree or other councilmembers.

“It’s based on the idea that I think affordable and efficient, responsible energy is crucial for a robust and prosperous society where each individual can go after their hopes and dreams,” she said.

Colorado Business Roundtable president Jeff Wasden and Douglas County school board member Meghann Silverthorn are among those lending support for fracking in a campaign by Coloradans for Responsible Energy Development. Staff photo

Thanks, television guy, it’s been great Not much amuses me on television, except for late-night, two-for-one commercials, and a talk show host who used to be an Indianapolis weatherman.

Everything else is canned, laugh-tracked and happy crackers.

Where have you gone, Monty Python?

What is and isn’t funny isn’t up to me.

Except today.

“Portlandia” isn’t — not even close.

Most television comedy involves getting in and out of a wacky bind, with lots of systematic naughtiness, and all of it was written in a junior high locker room.

The weatherman and I go all the way back to his morning show in Los Angeles.

He’s been in my life ever since, the entire time and reliable, while I was moving from state to state, job to job, house to house, girlfriend to girlfriend, dog to dog, death to death — and even when I wasn’t reliable myself.

David Letterman used to have a gap between his two front teeth.

He is very bright, perceptive, articulate and nimble with words. Others think that he is arrogant, condescending and acerbic.

He simply didn’t accommodate fools, like Kristen Stewart, and guests who couldn’t keep up with him.

He makes references to references, so his audiences have to be informed and knowledgeable. Not just sycophants. Ellen.

His serious interviews were exacting, and just as good as the ones he had with Harvey Pekar and Crispin Glover. Joaquin Phoenix?

“What can you tell us about your days with the Unabomber?”

The show could be juvenile at times too.

Whenever Letterman said “Dick Cheney,” band member Will Lee howled. Chris Eliot lived under the stairs. There were a lot of Stupid Pet Tricks.

The nightly Top Ten List began because Letterman thought that People magazine’s top 10 lists were annoying.

The cards he threw behind him shattered invisible glass, and then I heard 13 seconds of José Feliciano’s “Old Turkey Buzzard.”

He used to go into the audience, and he used to do remote bits. The silliness subsided as he grew older, and especially after heart surgery.

I was waiting to order at My Brother’s Bar one night, and looking at the “Book of Top Ten Lists and Wedding Dress Patterns for the Husky Bride.”

I was crying with laughter when the waitress arrived.

She said, “I know. We’re out of onion rings.”

I will miss Darlene Love. Alan Kalter (“And now: Microscopic sea creature, David Letterman!”). Calvert DeForest (Larry “Bud”

Work hard to find life memories amid death Every one of us faces a time in our lives when we have to say goodbye to someone else. And in this case I am speaking specifically to that time in our lives when a close friend or family member passes away and we have come to that point where we say our final farewells.

In the past two weeks I have had to say goodbye to two very close friends who lost their individual battles with cancer. Both were relatively young and passed away much too soon, with both being survived by spouses and children. Very sad situations indeed, and I know many of you, if not most of you, have faced similarly sad situations and the passing away of friends and loved ones too.

As I prepared myself to deliver both eulogies as a remembrance and tribute to their lives, I found myself fighting the profound sadness that filled my heart and

balancing that against the incredible joy and wonderful memories I experienced with each one of them. The sadness I felt was powerful and I cried as I wrote the words that I would be speaking and sharing at each of their services. Yet even as the grief overwhelmed me, I was captivated by the thoughts, stories, and rich history I experienced with my friends.

Melman) died in 2007.

When Letterman pointed to Paul after the monologue, the band ripped into “You Really Got Me.” Or “25 or 6 to 4.” Or “In the Midnight Hour.”

Jennifer and I were looking around for something to watch on New Year’s Eve. Everyone was dancing and wiggling around, because that’s what entertains most people.

Then we saw Letterman and he was just standing there. Being exceptionally witty.

Perfect — for me, at least.

The more educated I became, the more I appreciated Letterman. Just about everything else on television is aimed at Mr. and Mrs. Nobody.

I go back to Steve Allen and Jack Paar, but I think my talk shows days are just about over.

None of the new ones interest me nearly as much as Letterman. I like Fallon. I don’t like his band. Stewart is good, but he doesn’t have a band at all.

Craig Ferguson is a face-making dolt, and he’s about as nuanced as a Shriners parade.

Leno has a nice car collection. That’s about it. He’s about as funny as a one-legged tap dancer.

Letterman and I are the same age. We have made it this far together, but he will never know how much he has meant to me.

“I’ve had way too much coffee. But if it weren’t for the coffee, I’d have no identifiable personality whatsoever.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Training facility can’t counter guns’ harm

In response to Keith Wanklyn’s letter criticizing Diane Schrack’s position on the training facility, I can only say that I have known Diane for over seven years. She is a thoughtful, well-informed, and generous community activist. Mr. Wanklyn’s suggestion that she purchase a gun and complete an NRA course was arrogant and typical of right-wing gun nuts who believe that owning a gun solves every problem that the right wing perceives is wrong with our country.

I do hope that Mr. Wanklyn never experiences the death of a child or grandchild who mistakenly plays with a loaded gun in his home thinking it is a toy; who never kills a relative coming home at an unexpected time believing it is an intruder; or gets so angry at his spouse or another person in his home that he shoots them.

Guns cause more deaths in this country than any other country in the “civilized” world. There is no training facility that compensates for the amount of gun deaths

Getting a hospital built for veterans On the southeast corner of the Anschutz Medical Research Center in Aurora is a half-finished veterans’ hospital that, when completed, will be a state-ofthe-art medical center designed to meet the needs of the men and women who have served our nation in uniform.

Unfortunately, the construction of the Aurora VA hospital is hundreds of millions over budget and is already years behind schedule due to the extraordinary incompetence of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The general contractor, Kiewit-Turner Construction (KT), sued the VA for its mismanagement of the design process, which led to a $1 billion design on a $600 million budget.

In early December, the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals agreed with KT and ruled that it had the right to stop work on the project and for a brief period of time all construction activity stopped, leaving 1,400 workers without jobs right before Christmas. Fortunately, the VA and KT were able to reach an interim agreement that put those workers back on the job and the hospital back on track … for now.

Under the interim agreement, the VA paid KT $157 million for work already completed; brought in the Army Corps

It turned out that the single best thing I did in order to alleviate some my blues and sorrow was to speak with other friends and family members. Now I know this happens as a natural part of remembering someone when we gather for memorial services. We speak to people we haven’t seen in years and we talk about the same old stories of high school fame or of youthful mischievous behaviors. And in some cases not-soyouthful mischievous behaviors. We talk about the good times and we seem to let the bad times slip into oblivion. All of this is very helpful for some as they reminisce the good old days.

in this country.

Maybe Mr. Wanklyn would be better off moving to a country that condones the killing of its citizens, including its women and children — how about Iraq, Syria or Nigeria, then he and his Glock or AK-47 can sleep well at night.

What about immigration’s cost to us?

I enjoyed reading Ann Healey’s article on Rocio Mendez. She sounds like she is very dedicated and very deserving of our support.

However, I have a concern. Who has paid for her education so far and who will pay in the future? While Rocio is only one

of Engineers to take over management of the project; and provided approximately $70 million to keep the project going while a new contract with the Army Corps of Engineers can be negotiated.

The Army Corps of Engineers has built similar construction projects for the Department of Defense, consistently on time and within budget, while every major construction project managed by the VA has been hundreds of millions of dollars over budget and years behind schedule. My goal is to completely strip the VA of its authority to manage its own construction projects and permanently transfer that authority to the Army Corps of Engineers.

The next major complication is that after paying KT the money it is already owed and funding the interim contract,

we still have to figure out how to come up with enough money to complete the hospital. The hospital’s total cost, under current law, is capped at no more than $880 million, while the final price tag will probably exceed a billion dollars.

To start addressing this problem, as soon as the 114th Congress convenes, I plan to submit legislation that will raise the spending cap for the hospital to $1 billion and put into law the permanent transfer of authority to manage the VA’s construction projects to the Army Corps of Engineers. Given the VA’s past mismanagement, it cannot be trusted to manage its own construction projects.

The challenge then is where to find the money to cover the shortfall.

One possibility is for the VA to search through its own budget for unexpended appropriations in what is known as “reprogramming” within its Major Construction Account. This would cause a slowdown on the start dates for other VA major construction projects that haven’t broken ground yet.

The other possibility, unfortunately, is getting more money approved by Congress, and that may not be possible until much later this year. The issue will be in getting the additional funding approved

before the money runs out and the construction is forced to shut down until the money can be found to resume construction. My fear is that mothballing an unfinished hospital will cause the cost to go up even more than it already has.

My case to Congress is that we can’t erase the costly mistakes that the VA has already made, but the leadership of the Army Corps of Engineers will do everything that is reasonably possible to bring down the cost and speed up the construction of the hospital.

The VA’s incompetence has done serious damage to this hospital project. It has harmed our veterans, who have been waiting over a decade for this state-ofthe-art facility, and it has harmed the taxpayers of this nation who must now come up with the hundreds of millions of dollars to cover the cost overruns and to fix the VA’s costly mistakes.

We cannot abandon this hospital. We owe it to our veterans, the taxpayers, and to the 1,400 construction workers to keep this project going and to ultimately get it done.

What I found most helpful was not just talking about the quick stories we share when we don’t know what else to say, but rather digging in and going deeper into some of the most meaningful events that were shared. Some of the deepest feelings that others were willing to share. And as I asked those deeper questions and pressed slightly harder for more depth in their responses, I found the others very willing to open up and share more from their hearts.

In both cases as I probed my own memory, which led to intimate exchanges of information with the friends and family members, and a true celebration of life was forming in my mind and on my pad of paper. It became so much more than just what I was “supposed” to say during a eulogy or what would be deemed as “appropriate.” What mate-

rialized were robust, dynamic, funny, loving, passionate and provocative life stories. Things worth celebrating and sharing with the world.

Giving the pastor and the priest fair warning of irreverent stories turned out to be the right move. Balancing humor with compassion, and finding a way to tell their “real” life story to celebrate a life well lived, allowed me to deal with my own grief better and gave me the ability to share the stories in a way far more meaningful than the “supposed to say” and “church appropriate” language.

You may never have to give a formal eulogy, but we all eulogize those we loved and lost in our hearts. So I share this story with you today so that maybe you too can find a little more relief and happiness by going deeper into the memories you shared with those who

have passed away. Talk to your cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends, find out what they knew and what they enjoyed most.

There is no doubt you will hear stories of love, laughter, mystery, hard work, character and a life worth celebrating.

If you are also dealing with the loss of a loved one, I give you my condolences.

And if there is anything you would like to share with me, I would love to hear all about the way you are celebrating their life at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we give time to respect and grieve, but also find ways to truly celebrate what we had, it really will be a better than good week.

person and I am sure the “system” was able to absorb her education expenses, I do not think that the taxpayers can or should cover the costs of the millions of illegal immigrants that are getting free educations at the expenses of taxpayers’ children.

How many English as a second language classes have had to be added to our schools for these children? How many other classes, such as art and music, have had to be canceled because the schools do not have the resources to cover these classes?

It seems like today, parents are having to pay for many, many items that previously the schools were able to provide.

I agree that the illegal children should be given the opportunity to get an education, but their parents should be helping to pay for the costs, just like the rest of the taxpaying citizens.

Local jumper embraces bright lights More than 15,000 animals, 350 vendors on display at National Western

By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com For many, standing center stage at the National Western Stock Show and Rodeo in Denver can be a nerve-racking endeavor.

At the nation’s largest such event, the pressure can quickly mount for both professionals and amateurs.

But for 16-year-old horse jumper Cassie Marone of Highlands Ranch and her horse Denver, the spotlight transforms into a moment of calm.

“When you compete a lot, you get used to it,” Marone said Jan. 17. “You’re pretty comfortable when it’s just you and your horse in the ring. You don’t really think about everyone else.”

It isn’t Marone’s first rodeo. She has been competing and riding in competitions for years, including participating in the 2014 edition of the National Western. She boards her horses and trains at Millbrook Equestrian in Parker, 7860 N. Flintwood Road.

“It’s great. We love coming here every year because it’s just a fun experience and it’s a cool show to be at,” Marone said. “I think it’s just cool to get into the big arenas and have all the big jumps and see all the different horses and people.”

Marone’s mother Donna said that she loves coming to the National Western because it gives her daughter a chance to see and compete against some of the nation’s top equestrian talent. It’s also a bonding experience for mother and daughter.

“She’s a senior next year in high school, so we’ll probably come again to next years’. It’s her last year before she goes off to college,” Donna said.

The 16-day run of the National Western Stock Show is Colorado’s largest trade show with more than 350 vendors and 15,000 heads of livestock that will be judged, groomed,

Denver is the horse of Highlands Ranch Jumper Cassie Marone. Photos by Mike DiFerdinando bought and sold.

Horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, goats, llamas, bison, yaks, poultry and rabbits line the stockyard next to the horses.

They are sheered, combed, washed and blow-dried as

they get ready for their chance to impress and possible turn a hefty profit for their owners.

“The craziest thing I’ve seen, I would say, the big longhorn that’s walking around,” Cassie Marone said. “My horse doesn’t like that guy. He’s afraid of it.”

Ticket prices range from $10 to $19 for everyone 12 and older, with higher-priced tickets required on the weekend.

Tickets for children 3 to 11 years old are $2 to $3, depending on the day. Children under 2 get in free.

The general admission ticket also is good for visits to the Children’s Ranchland and petting farm, open daily on the third floor of the Expo Hall.

There are also 19 rodeo performances during the first stop of the year for members of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. Separate tickets are required for these events.

Livestock shows have been held in the Denver area since 1899 but none were regularly scheduled events. That changed in 1906 when the National Western Stock Show was held for the first time. The initial run was six days and an estimated 15,000 people attended.

The National Western Stock show runs until Jan. 25. For more information, visit nationalwestern.com.

Hickenlooper hones in on economy Workforce development,funding education key to supporting middle class, he says

By Amy Woodward

awoodward @coloradocommunitymedia.com Gov. John Hickenlooper delivered his annual State of the State address Jan. 15 during a joint session of the General Assembly, commending the state’s booming business sector and encouraging bipartisanship.

“The state of our state is strong,” Hickenlooper said. “According to almost every national ranking, Colorado is now one of the top states for business climate and job growth.”

Hickenlooper credits the state’s economic success to collaboration between state and local economic development developers. Pointing to the state’s economic development strategy to recruit talents and lure companies to Colorado from across the nation, Hickenlooper highlighted companies such as Panasonic, Cool Planet Energy Systems and Arrow Electronics as prime contributors to the state’s economic successes through job creation.

Helping companies like Lockheed Martin, Charles Schwab and Woodward to grow has also added to the state’s growing job market, Hickenlooper said.

Supporting the middle class and Colorado’s rural areas, where unemployment remains high, through workforce development will be met with an effort to jumpstart Hickenlooper’s economic plan in what he called Colorado Blueprint 2.0 from the Office of Economic Development and International Trade.

“The team will again be visiting all 14 regions of the state soliciting a vision for economic development starting with the counties where employment is most lagging. Counties like Otero, Costilla, San Miguel, and Huerfano,” Hickenlooper said.

“Our challenge is to make sure economic prosperity reaches

The governor spoke briefly about his frustrations with TABOR but gave little guidance as to how the Legislature should navigate taxing and spending conflicts.

“Amendment 23 demands more new money than we can possibly expect to have two years from now,” Hickenlooper said.

“If we do nothing, if we pretend the future will take care of itself, and we’re back here in two years facing what was clearly an avoidable crisis, history will show that we failed future generations of Coloradans.”

While the state must continue to support workforce development, funding education must part be part of business growth, the governor said. Hickenlooper’s budget proposal includes a $200 million addition to the state education fund as a one-time increase for school districts. He supports continued assessments in English and math for high school students but

Repeal on guns laws introduced Bills aim to reverse criminal background checks, large ammo cap

By Amy Woodward

awoodward@coloradocommunitymedia.com In the first batch of proposed bills for the legislative session, Republicans wasted little time introducing repeals on state gun laws.

Two separate measures were introduced in the state House, including House Bill 1050 and HB 1009.

HB 1050 proposes to repeal the state’s requirement for criminal background checks concerning private gun transfers from unlicensed gun dealers.

The bill banishes the requirement for the Colorado Bureau of Report Investigation to impose a fee for the instant criminal background check, which is $10, although the fee may be adjusted in the future.

The bill is sponsored by Rep. Janak Joshi, R-Colorado Springs, and co-sponsored by newly elected Sen. Laura Woods, R-Arvada.

“We’re basically taxing the Second Amendment,” Woods said. “It doesn’t keep guns out of the hands of bad guys and you look at gun-free zones — Chicago, Paris — you’ll see that gun laws do not prevent bad people from getting guns because by definition bad people don’t care what the laws are and they get guns anyway.”

The state Legislature approved expanding background

said that easing testing demands on seniors in social studies and science “might be among the right answers.”

“Beyond questions of funding, we need to confront the truth about whether Colorado’s kids are getting the education they need to compete and succeed in the job market,” Hickenlooper said.

The governor said he looks forward to the recommendations from the oil and gas task force appointed last year. But he did not speak on construction-defects laws, one of the more publically anticipated reactions from the General Assembly this year.

“I was surprised that construction-defects reforms was not mentioned, that is a real problem with Colorado and it has been discussed for several years here in the legislature,” said Rep. Kevin Van Winkle, R-Highlands Ranch. “I was hoping he would become a champion on the issue.”

Bills related to construction-defects laws remain to be seen this session but Sen. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, said he expects measures regarding the issue to come from Sen. Jessie Ulibarri, D-Westminster, and Sen. Mark Scheffel, R-Parker.

“I am very confident that is going to get through the Senate, where there seems to be strong bipartisan support there,” Sen. Holbert said.

The governor encouraged bipartisanship in a split Legislature that hasn’t been seen in 10 years.

“Now is when we must come together to address these issues,” Hickenlooper said. “We don’t need to throw knives, just the political courage to face the facts and do some real math.”

It’s a message the governor routinely gives, said Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge.

“In his speech, what I heard is what I we’ve heard so many times from him — it’s a lot of collaboration and people working together,” Jahn said. “He hit on the big things that really are important to everyone in the state.

“People can say he kicks the can down the road, I don’t see it that way.”

checks for gun purchases in 2013, along with the 15-round limit on ammunition magazines. Through HB 1009, Republicans are looking to reverse the ban on larger ammunition magazines.

Rep. Patrick Neville, R-Franktown, is helping to sponsor HB 1009 and said the original bill to ban large ammunition magazines is not enforceable.

The gun laws in general, including the required criminal background check, is more about gun control than public safety, he said.

“I don’t even think it’s really enforceable in the first place, and that’s usually one of the initial goals of the guncontrol agenda is to have a registration so they can identify, and that’s what this is attempting to do over a period of years is create that universal registration,” Neville said.

“Responsible gun ownership comes from the people, not the government.”

Both bills have been assigned to the State, Veterans, and Military Affairs committee in the House.

“About 80 percent of the people in Colorado support the background checks,” said Max Tyler, D-Lakewood, who sits on State, Veterans and Military Affairs committee.

“This has definitely been a good tool for public safety,” he said, citing CBI’s 2014 data that reported 285 people were denied guns through private purchases due to criminal history.

Dave Hoover, Lakewood resident and member of Everytown for Gun Safety, a national organization that works to end gun violence, said the attempts to reverse the state’s gun laws are a “slap in the face.”

“It’s just an insult,” said Hoover, who lost his nephew in the Aurora movie theater shooting of July 2012. “These laws hold people accountable. And for our politicians not to understand — it astounds me that they don’t get it.”

Lawmakers mull limits on drone surveillance Colorado could join other states in setting rules

By Kristen Wyatt Associated Press

Colorado lawmakers are considering regulating the use of drones, citing privacy concerns as they look to join at least 20 other states that have set limits.

A bill pending in the Colorado Senate would require law enforcement to have a warrant before using a drone, formally called an “unmanned aerial vehicle,’’ unless there is imminent threat to life or risk of a terrorist attack.

The measure would also set new limits for private citizens using drones, such as limiting their use to daylight hours and within the operator’s sight, up to three miles.

“The intention is to protect the privacy of people with this new technology that is around us,’’ said the bill’s sponsor, Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton.

“We love new technology ... (but) we want to make sure that those who might have ill intent would be held account-

able.’’

Newell has Republican support for her proposal, with two GOP senators signing on as co-sponsors.

The Republicans call the proposal a needed check on government surveillance.

“Drones are becoming increasingly available at every level, and Newell when it comes to government use, it needs to stay within the Fourth Amendment,’’ which guards against unreasonable search and seizure, said Sen. Kevin Lundberg, R-Berthoud.

But the drone proposal won’t be an easy sell to all. Law enforcement agencies haven’t said whether they support or oppose the measure, but in closed-door meetings last week, sponsors agreed to make some changes. The measure hasn’t yet been scheduled for a hearing, and there may be a rival drone proposal introduced in the House.

Law enforcement wants to make sure the measure doesn’t go too far and strip them of their ability to use drones to as-

sist in things like accident recovery and disaster response.

For example, Mesa County sheriffs’ officers used drones last spring to assess damage from a May mudslide that killed three people. Drones can be used to watch for wildfires, or to check for victims in mountainous rescue missions where human rescuers may struggle.

Many applications for drone use don’t have anything to do with criminal investigations, said Chris Johnson, head of the County Sheriffs of Colorado.

“I don’t particularly like the term `surveillance,’ because that isn’t mainly what they’re used for,’’ he said.

At least 20 states regulate drones and how law enforcement and the public can use them. Federal regulation is also expected from the Federal Aviation Administration, Johnson said.

Another sponsor of the measure, Democratic Sen. Lucia Guzman of Denver, said it’s time Colorado had some rules on drone use.

“Whether it’s the police or the FBI or my parents checking on me without my knowing it, I want to know my privacy is protected,’’ she said.

when I have a problem,” she said.

School board member Judi Reynolds hears often from community members.

“It certainly informs some of my questions, whether that’s at a board meeting or in a conversation with (Superintendent) Dr. (Elizabeth) Fagen,” she said.

“My hope would be there’s always an ongoing process of looking at what works well, what doesn’t work so well, and to always be evaluating. A large system like a school district has to be constantly evaluating. We should be consistent, but we shouldn’t be stagnant in what we do.”

Some community members point to what they see as a district pattern of presenting news in a flattering light, while leaving out relevant facts.

Among recent examples, Mutton and Douglas County Parents spokeswoman Cristin Patterson cite the district’s regaining of its “accredited with distinction” rating. The Colorado Department of Education assigned the ratings, and raised DCSD a notch after the state reviewed their calculation, excluding the performance of the district’s highest-risk students and factoring in improved ACT scores and graduation rates.

“They made it sound like it was due to teachers’ efforts and, of course, to their reforms,” said Patterson.

A news release issued by the school district about the improved rating didn’t mention the removal of the data from students at three of its alternative education campuses. An online article on DCSD’s website includes a link to the CDE’s letter explaining how it arrived at its decision to raise the district’s rating.

School board president Kevin Larsen spoke about the methodology used to reach the new ranking. Though their performances were excluded, Larsen told Colorado Community Media he is proud of the alternative education students because they improved their scores in 2014, and of the district for providing such students with educational options.

In another recent example, DCSD board members and articles on its website state that 100 percent of the teachers in its controversial teacher evaluation system rated as “ineffective” left the district — without including the fact that only nine teachers were rated “ineffective.”

“Ninety-four percent of teachers rated as Highly Effective remain at DCSD for the 2014-15 school year,” according to an article on DCSD’s website. “More than 90 percent of those rated as Effective stayed in the Douglas County School District this year. One-hundred percent of teachers rated as Ineffective have left the district prior to the start of the 201415 school year.”

The vast majority of teachers — 2,243 — were rated “effective.” Another 690 were rated “highly effective,” and 269 were rated “partially effective.” DCSD does not cite those numbers in its articles on teacher turnover.

“In order to fool the public into believing their strategic agenda is working, they leave off important facts or skim statistics to sound amazing, or just state something that sounds good but can’t be proven with data,” Patterson said.

“Instead of acknowledging parents and teachers aren’t happy and committing to fix that, they have hired a PR firm,” Mutton said. “They send out oneway communication to say everything’s fine.”

Paula Hans, school district public information officer, pointed out that press releases and stories are different.

“A press release is intended to build interest in a story, thus encouraging a reporter to reach out to that organization for more information,” she wrote in an email. “The purpose of our stories, on the other hand, is to provide our stakeholders with all relevant information.”

She also noted that new communications tools, including a radio show, social media, newsletters and telephone town halls, were born out of community demand for more communication.

Larsen is always looking for new ways to reach the community, he said. DCSD recently added live and archived video broadcasts of its board meetings, and

he’s encouraged his fellow board members to get out into the community. “One thing the board has done this fall is to go out and attend a number of these school accountability meetings,” he said. “As a group, we have made a considerably large effort.

“For me, I find that being open and willing to meet in a small group affords everybody the chance to just have a true conversation. I think every board member has his or her own way of doing that.”

No matter what method DCSD uses, some maintain its messages too often skim over community concerns.

Among the community members’ longest-standing requests is a community survey. The last acknowledged survey was in 2011. DCSD discounted the 6 percent response rate of a 2012 survey as statistically invalid and hasn’t conducted one since.

District leaders announced in June 2014 they would conduct a community survey, using a third-party organization to ensure appropriate response rates.

But Larsen said in December there is no specific timetable for it.

“We are continuing to examine the right way to proceed,” he said.

Meanwhile, Hans said DCSD welcomes feedback from everyone.

“We frequently meet with our stakeholders and answer our own emails,” she wrote. “We are always available and we are committed to doing what we believe is best for our students.”

Patti Hickey, a Douglas County parent and former Littleton Public Schools teacher, urges Douglas County residents to learn about the changes in the school district from a variety of sources.

“Many parents have done so much research and can list links to show the facts,” she said. “When (the district) says everything’s great, everyone’s happy and our strategic plan is awesome — it’s not.

“Start reading and come up with your own conclusions. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s to become involved and pay attention.”

safety and security was a collaboration of Douglas County government,” Sheriff Tony Spurlock said in a statement. “This collaboration included careful deliberation and forethought while being fiscally responsible stewards of taxpayer revenue.”

The justice center expansion began in August of 2012. Plans for the project included the renovation and expansion of the county’s justice center to address serious concerns about facilities for inmates with mental illness, inmates with medical issues, Americans With Disabilities Act requirements, overall site security and the lack of secure parking.

The first phase of the project was the parking garage, which was completed in November of 2013. The parking garage created additional employee parking, along with secured parking spaces for law enforcement vehicles.

The second and final phase, renovation and expansion of the detention facility, is now complete.

The final part of the project included the reconfiguration and repurposing of existing housing areas to provide for ADA requirements, plumbing issues and other internal space remodeling needs.

The changes have also enhanced site security.

According to Undersheriff Holly NicholsonKluth, the justice center is not at capacity; rather, the need to keep populations of inmates separate prompted the need for more space.

Nicholson-Kluth said that most jails remain at around 80 percent capacity when operating efficiently.

“We had people with mental illnesses that wound up having to be kept in cells with cameras on them for weeks instead of a medical setting,” said Nicholson-Kluth. “That’s not the best for us or for them. Now we have the space for everyone to be in their proper place.”

According to the DCSO, the ability to house inmates with medical needs saves money and resources for the county because hospital care adds fees plus the costs of 24-hour on-site security by DCSO deputies.

The justice center now has the ability to house and treat special populations including the mentall ill, to treat minor medical issues and recovery on site, and to house and care for additional female inmates.

“I must have had a guardian angel on my shoulder. Thank you Sky Ridge ER for saving my life.” -- Jennifer Halvas Jennifer Halvas, an otherwise healthy mother of three young children, recently suffered a heart attack.

Not the traditional kind of cardiac arrest, but a rare and little understood version, caused by a Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD).

Eight out of 10 of its victims are women.

Halvas knows she’s lucky. And living near Sky Ridge, which Dr. Barry Molk, Chief of Cardiology at Sky Ridge and a partner with Aurora Denver Cardiology Associates (ADCA), says stands out for its community education, particularly its genderspecific education, helped. Sky Ridge has a large number of young-women patients and is a regional maternity hub. “We are particularly cognizant of SCAD and heart disease in women here because of our population,” Dr. Molk says.

‘The voice for the

chi l dre n’ Court-appointed volunteers help youths traverse the foster system

By Christy Steadman

csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com They are managers of fraud investigations, homemakers and customer-account and marketing managers.

But to the children they are assigned, they are a friend to play video games or watch movies with, a tutor for homework help or someone to take them to the park or mall.

Most of all, they are a trusted adult the child can talk to.

They are Court Appointed Special Advocates.

“CASAs have no other reason to be there except for the kid,” said Kevin Gedeon, a CASA volunteer since spring 2012.

“They’re always good kids, but they are in the worst imaginable situations.”

The advocates are volunteers appointed by a judge or magistrate to children involved in a dependency or neglect case, said Kristen Kunz, 18th Judicial District CASA program director. The case will involve either imminent risk of harm to the child or familial struggles. Poverty is not considered a struggle, Kunz said, but may go hand-in-hand with challenges that do qualify — physical, sexual or substance

abuse, mental illness or domestic violence.

The process begins once a court case is triggered, Kunz said, and a child is entered into the custody of social services and placed in a foster home. An advocate is matched with a family, generally, within 60 days of the case opening. The advocate stays with the family until the case closes, she said, which averages about 12 to 18 months.

The Department of Human Services works to help get families back on track, Kunz said, and advocates do a lot of the legwork investigating what is in the child’s best interest.

“It’s easy to think that once a case is in the courts, everything just takes care of itself,” said C.J. Whelan, Centennial city councilmember, District 4, “but that is far from the truth.”

A reliable presence

CASA provides the resource that helps the child as they traverse the system, he said.

Advocates are “the voice for the children in the foster system,” said Yolanda Bryant, a CASA volunteer since 2006. “We are those children’s advocate until they are reunited with their families or are adCASA continues on Page 15

opted by a new, forever family.”

It’s hard on children if they are placed into a strange home, or if they have been abused by a parental figure, Gedeon said.

“Their whole world has been completely demolished,” he said. “It puts everyday worries into perspective, in comparison to a young kid whose world is upside down.”

Often, a child’s advocate is the most consistent person in their life, Bryant said. The child can always rely on their CASA, she said, whether it’s spending time together as a trusted friend or as a confidant to discuss any issues the child may be experiencing at the foster home or school.

“You try and talk to them as much as you can — find out how things are going,” Gedeon said. “It makes a big impression on them to see a stranger who cares.”

CASA is the only volunteer opportunity written into law, Kunz said. Therefore, advocates receive court orders that allow them access to relevant information to best help the child, she said. Such information includes details on therapy sessions, and school, medical and court records.

The written reports, which are submitted by a child’s advocate at every court hearing, Kunz said, often are the “main vehicle for advocacy in the courtroom.”

“CASAs really get to know these kids.

You help the judge and lawyers make the choices that are in the best interest of the child,” Bryant said. “Sometimes you’re the only one in the courtroom who really knows the child.”

Closing the communication gap is key to being an advocate, said Josiane Edy, a CASA volunteer since 2007.

“You’re part of a legal team,” she said, but a background in law is not required.

Advocates deal with the case worker, social services and legal people, but also manage all of the child’s relationships —

Children that advocates work with range in age from newborns to about 18 years old, Bryant said. Youths 13-21 going through the emancipation process also have CASA resources available through the Legacy Project.

“The most rewarding part is seeing the strength in the kids,” despite what they’ve been through, Gedeon said. “It’s heartwarming to see their positive attitude.”

The organization protects the volunteers’ safety, Bryant said, and has strict guidelines — such as not bringing a child into the volunteer’s home — that advocates need to adhere to. But, for the most part, the advocates are permitted to spend time with the child doing whatever the child wants to do, she said.

“Just taking them out and making them feel a little bit special,” Edy said.

CASA organizes holiday parties, and sometimes gets admission vouchers to places like the zoo, or tickets to sports games, Edy said.

It’s good to get to know the individual interests of the child and let those develop, Edy said, but it is also a great opportunity to expose the child to new things or provide them with a special learning experience.

Advocates are permitted to buy little things for the child, Edy said. A child who moves to a number of different foster homes in a short period of time may not have a lot of possessions, she said. Even something as simple as a coloring book gives them one thing to call their very own, she said.

All proceeds from “One Child at a Time: The Mission of a Court Appointed Special Advocate,” written by Yolanda Bryant, goes to the local CASA program, which serves the 18th Judicial District.

To purchase a copy of the book, visit the CASA office at 10855 E. Bethany Drive, Suite 200, Aurora, CO 80014.

If it is preferred to have a book mailed, orders can be made by emailing casa_program@adv4children.org Elbert and Lincoln counties.

“Abuse and neglect of a child ranks among the worst acts most of us can imagine,” Whelan said. “CASA shows the true backbone of a community by doing tremendous good during a child’s most difficult times.”

CASA strives to provide each child in need with an advocate, Kunz said, but there are more cases than volunteers.

Bryant wrote “One Child at a Time: The Mission of a Court Appointed Special Advocate” with the hope that the book will lead others to volunteer for CASA, she said.

In the book, she tells the story of a

3-year-old girl she championed, plus shares the experiences of other CASA volunteers, guardians ad litem, caseworkers and supervisors. The book answers a lot of questions potential CASAs may have, Bryant said, and is also used as a training tool for new volunteers.

CASA needs anybody who has ever thought about a way they could make a difference in a child’s life, Bryant said.

“Just like every child differs from each other,” Bryant said, “we need every kind of person. The organization trains you for this work — you just need two strong arms and a loving heart.”

Grab a fork — Restaurant Week coming Visit Denver has unveiled the menus and list of restaurants participating in the 2015 Denver Restaurant Week at www.denv. co/2015drw. This year’s dine-around runs from Feb. 20 through March 1, which includes two weekends.

“We want people to be intrigued by new restaurants or tantalized by menus from some of their favorites and go online and book reservations right away,” said Richard Scharf, president and CEO of Visit Denver.

More than 250 eateries in Denver and the surrounding suburbs will offer multicourse dinners for the fixed price of $30, not including tax or tip. Many of the participating restaurants also include wine, beer and drink specials.

“The fun of restaurant week is looking at how all the chefs, faced with the same challenge of providing a knockout multi-course meal for just $30, get creative to find different solutions,” Scharf said. “Denver’s restaurant scene is exploding and gaining a huge national reputation, so this is an excellent time to get out and explore some dining spots.”

More restaurants sign up daily, so diners should check the site often for new listings at www.denverrestaurantweek.com.

Arapahoe and Douglas facilities offer much more than books

Gabby Gourmet’s husband dies

Taylor Blatchford

Mark Miller, my friend and a huge fan and friend of Denver’s restaurant community, died on Jan. 11 after a lengthy illness. He was 82.

Mark, husband of author and TV/radio personality Pat “Gabby Gourmet” Miller, was the power behind the throne. As Gabby’s chief of staff, Mark ran the business of being The Gabby Gourmet.

There was no better friend to the local restaurant community. Mark was both revered for his gentle gentleman persona and feared for his fierce advertising sales prowess.

Special to Colorado Community Media The Arapahoe and Douglas County library districts both provide patrons technological opportunities beyond checking out books, from 3D printers to recording studios.

Oli Sanidas, director of Digital Services for the Arapahoe Library District, said every Arapahoe library has advanced technology beyond computer and Internet access.

“A lot of schools have some of this technology, but schools only specifically target students,” Sanidas said. “We have a lot of people in our public that we call lifelong learners, and the library is a perfect place for them.”

Sanidas said the libraries offer three different categories of technology. Some items, such as iPads and GoPro cameras, are available for patrons to check out. Another group of items, including a 3D printer and recording studio, are openly available in the libraries for patrons to use. The most expensive and delicate technology, such as Google Glass and Oculus Rift, is only available for use with staff supervision or with special programs.

The Southglenn Library in Centennial has had a media lab open for more than a year that features a recording studio, 3D printer, green screen, VHS to DVD conversion and advanced computer software. A new project is in the works for the Castlewood branch, which will include more hands-on options including a laser cutter and sewing machines.

The Southglenn Library in Centennial has a 3D printer available for patron use.

The Fusion Media Lab in the Parker Library offers patrons technology options including a green screen, advanced computer software, VHS to DVD conversion and video production and editing tools.

Sanidas said he believes libraries are about dispensing knowledge, and that idea has continued to evolve through the development of technology.

“Knowledge is how a lot of people picture a library with books, ebooks and the Internet, where you can consume media,” Sanidas said. “There’s also a lot of knowledge in touching, feeling, learning and experiencing for yourself. Our patrons get to understand where industries are evolving and what’s changing.”

Sanidas said he wants the library to be more than a place where people can check out books.

“We want to be seen as a place of discovery and a place to go to see things that you probably couldn’t see on your own,” Sanidas said.

Parker Library branch manager Amy Long said every Douglas County library has computers for patrons to access with basic features like Microsoft Office and Internet access.

The Fusion Lab, a feature of only the Parker library, offers patrons technology options including a video camera, videoediting software, and higher-end software including PhotoShop and Illustrator. It opened in February 2014.

“That software is a little more expensive, so we wouldn’t want to put that on all 100 public computers we have throughout the Douglas County libraries,” Long said.

Long said the more popular features include VHS to DVD conversion and videoediting software.

“I wouldn’t say (The Fusion Lab) is as

popular as our public computers, which are used every day, but it’s definitely getting use and people are getting more aware that we have that opportunity,” Long said. “It’s getting more and more use as time has gone on.”

Derrick Mason, an Adult Services Librarian and Fusion Lab team member for the Parker Library, develops programs to increase awareness and usage of library technology and provides instruction to patrons.

“My favorite experience in the Fusion Lab so far has been the Youth Media Camp we held last summer,” Mason said. “Last summer, over 30 teens participated in a program in which they learned filmmaking techniques and used our equipment to produce short films. They turned the entire library into their own movie studio.”

Long said that the lab will move to the new Parker Library building, which will be built this year. There are not currently plans to add similar features to other Douglas County libraries.

She said she believes the role of the library is in providing access to the community, including access to print materials, electronic materials, databases, computers or high-end computer software.

“If you think of the library as a provider of access, and access to greater resources and knowledge than one would have in their home on a daily basis, then I don’t think our role has changed at all,” Long said. “What we’re providing access to has changed and will continue to change as the environment changes.”

Prom show comes to Denver

TLC’s national program “Say Yes to the Prom” is coming to Denver, and The Cable Center has been chosen as one of five partners by TLC’s parent company Discovery Communications to host one of its 2015 events.

Now in its fourth year, “Say Yes to the Prom” will give a select group of deserving girls from Abraham Lincoln High School the opportunity to develop mentoring relationships with industry professionals, build their self-confidence and self-image and, of course, “say yes to the prom dress.”

To make this a special event for the girls involved, The Cable Center will host a Prom Dress Drive from 10 a.m. to noon Jan. 31 at The Cable Center, 2000 Buchtel Blvd. More than 500 new and gently used dresses, with dry-cleaning tags, are needed in order for the girls to have the best shopping experience.

Teen singer releases debut single Parker girl hopes for career in music

By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com Millions of young girls would love to write and perform songs that reach an audience, but not everyone puts in the time and dedication that Amanda May does.

The 13-year-old singer-songwriter from Parker released her first song on iTunes last month. “Sparks Always Spread,” which she describes as a “song about not doubting myself, even when it can be easy to do so,” follows in the footsteps of today’s superstars, like Taylor Swift. May’s ability

to chronicle the ups and downs of being a teenager is a product of her years of experience on the acoustic guitar (no, really) and her creative wordplay.

The release of her debut single is a small step toward what she hopes is a career in music, but May makes it clear that she’s not in it for fame or glamour. She’s drawn by “the way songs are made.” May has sung from a young age and always had a fascination with the guitar, which she picked up in the second grade and never put down.

“I’m not just, like, a kid that’s messing with an instrument and forgets about it in two weeks,” she says.

May channels her energy into her craft and says she prefers songwriting over typical teenage activities like hanging out with friends and going to movies.

May’s speaking voice and singing voice,

as well as her poise and maturity, seem to reflect her intense focus, conveying the notion that she takes what she is saying very seriously. When talking about what separates her songwriting from modern pop artists, she mentions her inclusion of seventh chords and occasional dissonant bass notes and writing in different keys.

“I try to stay away from the typical pattern,” May says, carefully distancing herself from the formulaic tendencies of today’s popular music writers.

Of course, her mother, Leah Morin, is among her biggest cheerleaders, and she has been beyond impressed at her daughter’s ability to put together catchy, wellthought-out tunes.

“Her songwriting, from day one, has just been wise beyond her years. Very advanced,” Morin said.

Practicing for hours on end is “fun,” and May enjoys soaking up knowledge from her guitar teacher and vocal coach. Her goal is to make it as an artist, but she is not blind to the fact that it’s an industry that’s “really cutthroat.” Her second career choice also involves reaching out to people with her words of wisdom. May’s fallback is pursuing a job as a psychologist or social worker.

But she has plenty of time to figure things out. Her next plan is to play again in the Stars of Tomorrow talent competition in Castle Rock this spring. From there, she plans to learn everything there is to know about recording her own material.

To download “Sparks Always Spread,” go to the iTunes store and type in “Amanda May.”

Harlem Wizards coming to four schools Basketball games will help raise money

By Jane Reuter jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Four Douglas County high schools will offer four nights of athleticism and entertainment when the Harlem Wizards perform during the first week of February. The public performances that double as fundraisers are

part of what booster parents have dubbed “Wizard Week.”

The professional basketball team that specializes in fast-paced high jinks will play at Mountain Vista, Rock Canyon, Castle View and Douglas County high schools Feb. 2, 4, 5 and 6 respectively. Each show starts at 7 p.m.

The Wizards played to a sold-out audience at Castle View in 2010, and packed houses there again in 2011.

The Harlem Wizards are a 53-year-old show team created to be even more competitive, creative, and entertaining team than the

Harlem Globetrotters, using comedy, stunts and amazing displays of athleticism during their performances. Audience members don’t just watch; they often become part of the show. The Wizards perform nationwide, raising funds for charitable organizations, schools and foundations.

The Wizards are entertaining enough on their own, but adding to the fun, the pros will play against administrators and teachers from the feeder schools in all four areas.

All the schools will use proceeds raised from the games to benefit their athletic de-

United Launch Alliance Concludes Banner Year After 14 successful launches, major milestones in 2014, ULA sets its sights on 2015 Centennial, Colo., (Dec. 29, 2014) – United Launch Alliance, the nation’s premier space launch provider, congratulates its employees, suppliers and customers on another successful year, reliably and affordably launching 14 satellites to orbit with 100 percent mission success.

“What ULA has accomplished this year, in support of our customers’ missions, is nothing short of remarkable,” said ULA CEO Tory Bruno. “When you think about every detail – all of the science, all of the planning, all of the resources – that goes into a single launch, it is hard to believe that we successfully did it at a rate of about once a month, sometimes twice.”

This year, ULA’s 14-mission manifest spanned: • 9 national security space missions, including four Global Positioning System satellites for the U.S. Air Force • 3 space exploration missions, including NASA’s first Exploration Flight Test for Lockheed Martin’s Orion spacecraft • 2 commercial missions, including DigitalGlobe’s WorldView-3, which provides the latest Earth imaging capabilities

Other major accomplishments in 2014 included: • The 51st successful launch of the Delta II • The 50th successful launch of the Atlas V • The 25th successful launch of the Delta IV • Twice successfully launching two different missions from two different coasts in one week • ULA’s 90th successful launch, an unmatched record of success “This year we were reminded just how hard rocket science can be,” said Bruno. “It takes a special group of people to be in this business, and I am truly humbled to work among dedicated individuals who have exhibited a total focus on precision, a passion for the science of rocketry and space, and a deep commitment to our purpose.”

This year also marked the start of the five-year contract between United Launch Alliance and the Air Force, a best-practice, multi-year acquisition process that will save the government $4.4 billion, ensure significant operations efficiencies, and create the needed stability and predictability in the supplier and industrial base, while meeting national security space requirements.

Additionally, this year ULA partnered

with Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin to develop a new domestic engine, an all-American rocket engine that will power ULA’s nextgeneration vehicles. The new engine, the BE-4, will lower the cost of launches and will meet both commercial requirements and those of the U.S. Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) program.

Also this year, ULA and its partner, The Boeing Company, were selected to support NASA’s Commercial Crew program, sending critical cargo and the next generation of astronauts to the International Space Station. As America’s ride to space, ULA will launch Boeing’s manned CST-100 spacecraft by 2017, playing a pivotal role in advancement of human spaceflight.

“It goes without saying: ULA had a banner year,” Bruno said. “As we look ahead to 2015, we could not be more honored to continue supporting our nation in one of the most technologically complex, critical American needs: affordable, reliable access to space.”

Time is bent in ‘Predestination’

Marketplace

Film is clearer for those who read original story

Advertise: 303-566-4100

By Jocelyn Noveck Associated Press

Time travel. There’s hardly a more alluring fantasy in our pop culture, from the simplest depictions — children’s cartoons, comic strips, romantic comedy films — to the “Interstellar’’ kind that you need a physics degree to understand.

Count “Predestination’’ among the more complex explorations of the concept: a strange, yet also strangely alluring, adaptation of a definitively weird short story, “All You Zombies’’ by Robert Heinlein, about a time-tripping crime-fighter (Ethan Hawke, in his appealing Everyman persona). Directed by the Spierig brothers (Michael and Peter), the film may not require a physics degree. But it does require a decent night’s sleep and most of your brain cells. This is not a movie to watch after several glasses of wine.

Speaking of wine, Hawke plays a man known only as The Barkeep. And yes, he tends bar occasionally, but his real job title is Temporal Agent, which is just as cool as it sounds. We meet him in 1970s Manhattan, where he’s preparing for his final mission — taking down a terrorist called the Fizzle Bomber, who, if not stopped, will destroy much of the city. Dismantling one of the man’s bombs, he loses much of his face. But he recovers to look like, well, Ethan Hawke.

One evening, a guy walks into a bar.

Or, sort of a guy. His name is Unmarried Mother, and the reason for that name will slowly be revealed as he tells his story in flashbacks — a highlight of the film. Turns out Unmarried Mother — played by the terrific Australian actress Sarah Snook, in a wonderfully nuanced, gender-bending performance — began his unusual life as a female baby named Jane, abandoned on the steps of a Cleveland orphanage in 1945.

After a youth in which she displays a tomboy streak and fighting skills, she winds up being recruited in the ‘60s to Space Corps, a strange force of women tasked with having sex with astronauts in space, to relieve their tension. But before she can blast off, she winds up impregnated by a mysterious young man who then deserts her.

It gets weirder. She gives birth to a baby girl, and doctors inform her that they discovered both male and female organs inside her. They’ve chosen to make her a man. She (he) ends up in New York, where she (he) makes a living writing confes-

cannabis is legal, including Colorado.

“It will be a specially engineered strain of pot designed to not give you the munchies,” an insider close to the Skinnygirl cocktails creator, 44, tells Us magazine. “She read about how profitable the cannabis industry is and wants to get in on that.”

New owners for Wazee Supper Club

Roadhouse Hospitality Group has acquired the 40-year-old Wazee Supper Club at 1600 15th St. in LoDo, making it the 17th restaurant for the family-operated Coloradobased company.

Roadhouse Hospitality Group has been one of the state’s best-established restaurant family dynasties for nearly three decades.

Owned by the brothers Dan, John and Mike Shipp, the group comprises such diverse eateries as the popular Washington Park Grille, Reiver’s, Spanky’s Roadhouse in the University of Denver neighborhood, the upscale pair of dining experiences that are the two Hodsons (downtown and Southglenn) and myriad mountain destinations such as the Kickapoo Tavern in Keystone, as well as four Dusty Boot Steakhouse & Saloons in Greenwood Village, Aurora, Eagle and Beaver Creek.

The Shipp brothers plan renovations for Wazee that will revisit its past while highlighting significant features that the beloved and now-famous restaurant — President Obama ate pizza there in 2014 during a Denver stop - lost over the years through ownership changes and remodels.

MOVIE DETAILS “Predestination,’’ a Sony Pictures release, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America “for violence, some sexuality, nudity and language.’’ Running time: 97 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four. sional stories for magazines, using her (his) special woman’s intuition.

The action gets going in the second half, when Barkeep offers Jane the chance to go back in time and alter what happened.

She jumps at the chance, without knowing just how it’s going to happen. Barkeep dusts off the old time machine, which lives in a violin case, and the two travel back to Jane’s origins.

But Barkeep’s got an agenda, and it’s here that revealing any more plot becomes tricky. First, because of spoilers, but also because it gets really confusing. Certainly those who’ve read Heinlein’s story (easily available online) will know what they’re seeing, and sci-fi aficionados who think a certain way may have a good sense, too.

Many others, though, will be aching more than once to hit a rewind button.

Like me, you may also find yourself asking, wait, can THAT happen in time travel?

Why, of course it can. It’s fiction. But you’ll see what I mean.

You may also ask yourself why you haven’t seen Snook before. This actress, who resembles a young Jodie Foster, gives a chameleon-like performance that’s about much more than makeup and costumes and voice register. She makes the more preposterous scenes seem plausible, and even when they’re not plausible, at least interesting. And she’s only in her 20s; time is on her side.

and specialty breads and sweets as before in addition to an expanded line of breakfast and lunch sandwiches. The grand reopening celebration took place on Jan. 16.

To celebrate the new location, customers who buy any soup mix will receive a half dozen bag of rolls or a mini loaf for free throughout January.

Owner Cheri Miller says: “We want people to come in and stay a while as they enjoy a good cup of coffee, soup and a sandwich.

This new space gives us the opportunity to be more of a community gathering place.”

The Arvada Great Harvest is open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. For more information, visit www.ArvadaGreatHarvest. com or find the bakery on Facebook under Arvada Great Harvest.

Distinct divers deliver deftness Combined Douglas County/Castle View squad meshes well together

Ready for the top step Vision-impaired wrestler has championship-or-bust mentality in senior season

By Jim Benton

jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Chaparral heavyweight Dane Drimmer is legally blind but wants to take the final step in the Class 5A state wrestling tournament next month.

Drimmer, who has a hereditary vision disorder, finished third as a sophomore in the 2013 state tournament and was the runner-up last season.

“I have a rare vision disorder which is called achromatopsia which means I’m blinded by light, far-sighted, near-sighted and color blind,” explained Drimmer.

“I was born with it. I wear special contacts to help with the sun and light. They filter out the UV rays and light.

“My vision is around 20/200 with my contacts on and without my contacts it is around 20/500. I can’t drive. I’ve got family and friends that really care.”

A person is considered to be legally blind if he or she has a corrected vision of 20/200 in their best seeing eye.

Drimmer has tried not to let the handicap affect his wrestling, which he has doing since he was in sixth grade.

“Yes and no,” he answered when asked if his limited vision bothers him during a match. “I mean the only thing it really affects is if my eye gets poked and my contacts fall out. You have to stop the

match.”

Chaparral coach Rod Padilla would like Drimmer to consider using a rule for visual impaired wrestlers where opponents must stay in contact with him.

“He is officially blind,” said Padilla.

“That’s one reason he’s lost a couple matches. When he gets in an odd situation because he doesn’t have any peripheral vision when the guy starts to come around he sees it too late. Against the better kids, he reacts a second too late, and the guy is already in a position of authority because he didn’t see him.

“We’re thinking about making him use the benefit he can get, because if you’re blind you can do a hand touch and any time you separate the referee has to stop the match. But he’s too proud. I’ve asked the question. Do we officially have to get a document from somebody saying his condition because we just can’t say that.

They’ll say he’s not blind because they see him walk by himself but you notice him with his phone and he has to hold it real close and he wears special contacts.”

Drimmer, the No. 1 heavyweight wrestler in the onthematrankings.com, is determined this season and after his past two state tournament finishes.

“It’s given me a lot more motivation,” said Drimmer. “I mean freshman year not placing I wasn’t too happy about that. Then going in sophomore year and taking third just motivated me more to take second or first. First didn’t happen last year, but this year, I’d like for it happen and it should happen.

“I’m working this year on more shots

and being really explosive and quick on the bottom.”

Drimmer feels a schedule with tough out-of-state matches will help in February during regional and state competition.

“This year has been one of my toughest years compared to my freshman and sophomore years because coach set us up with a lot of out of state,” said Drimmer. “I learned a lot a lot. It was good because you have competition in this state but once you keep wrestling the same competition you kind of know what they do and how they move.

“So when you go out of state and wrestle other competition, they are completely different styles and you have to adapt to it. I wrestled year round. Wrestling is really important to me.”

Padilla believes Drimmer will be the wrestler to beat in the state meet.

“He saw some tough competition and hopefully he picked up some stuff that he’s working on,” Drimmer said. “Everybody has him No. 1 in the state. There’s only one threat and that is if he goes up from 220 to heavyweight. That’s Devin Rothrock from Arvada West. Other than him, there is nobody else.”

Drimmer tries not to look at other competitors.

“I do, but it’s kind of rare to look at other competitors,” he asaid. “When I go out there on the mat, it doesn’t matter who I’m wrestling as long as I’m wrestling as hard as I can and giving it my all.

In my head when I go into a match nobody wins except for me.”

Castle View/Douglas County diving coach Sara Ryon marvels at the diverse personalities on her co-op diving squad.

Five of the seven divers attend Douglas County High School and two are from Castle View.

“I am so proud of my girls,” said Ryon. “Each one brings their unique personality to the team and helps us create a bond that will hopefully last a long time.”

Tori Bredehoeft, a Douglas County senior, is the dive team captain.

“Tori has been the best captain I’ve had,” admitted Ryon. “She always supports the girls no matter what is going on in her life. She helps me coordinate between divers, parents and swimmers. As a diver she has met every expectation that I have made, and I have very high expectations.”

Paige Granie, a Castle View Junior, has quiet determination and drive. Castle View sophomore Marissa Murphy is enthusiastic and dedicated.

Lexie Barker, a Douglas County sophomore, keeps practices fun and lighthearted while working on her rapidly improving skills. Douglas County sophomore Audrey Park focuses on detail and breaks down each dive.

Douglas County freshman Megan Dietz is the team’s quiet, sweet one but has the determination to just say ‘sure’ and attempts new dives. Samantha Tamborksi, another Douglas County freshman, always has a smile on her face and keeps the team loose with her silliness but delivers dives with pose and grace.

This season’s top scores were coming from the Castle View/Douglas County divers were Tamborski’s 392.25 at the Smoky Hill Invitational, Barker’s 386.65 at the Angels Invitational and Park’s 357.70 at the Angels Invitational.

“We’re all about on the same level, so it’s competitive for all of us,” said Park. “It’s good because we have a lot of good people on the team. We usually work on new dives or dives we will be doing in the meets.”

Ryon’s job has been pleasant watching her divers compete.

“Coach has a way of connecting with each diver on a personal level and this helps her delve into how the athlete’s mind works, which in turns helps her create beautiful divers,” said Bredehoeft.

Horses, people unite for therapy SaddleUp! Foundation is volunteer venue

By Rick Gustafson

Special to Colorado Community Media It’s the first Saturday morning of the new year. Temperatures have dipped into single digits overnight, and the snow crackles under the tires of a sporadic flow of cars that slow as they enter the driveway north of Elizabeth. Following a short pause, the drivers ease forward, finding a gap between the SUVs, pickups, and sedans already lined up in front of the SaddleUp! Foundation’s powder blue metal riding arena.

Inside, it is cold but not freezing. The scent of hay and horse mixes with the smell of brewing coffee. Ten future SaddleUp volunteers sit or stand, sipping from Styrofoam cups under the lone radiant heater running the length of the hall’s ceiling as a few stragglers wander in. The coffee urn has sprung a small leak, and drops of coffee seep from the faucet.

Jamie Anthony, therapeutic riding instructor and SaddleUp’s volunteer coordinator, moves in and stops the leak with a quick twist of the faucet shank. In addition to working with students at SaddleUp, her job is to make things work, providing the proper mix for the center and the dozens of people who offer their time to the center’s outpatient and therapeutic horseback riding programs.

SaddleUp specializes in providing equine therapy for people with special needs. Also referred to as hippotherapy, the technique uses horses in physical, occupational, and speech therapy for patients with physical or mental impairments. While the facility does offer lessons to able-bodied individuals who want to improve horsemanship, the majority of the SaddleUp’s students have brain injuries, multiple sclerosis or autism.

“Autism is big for us because it is such a wide diagnosis for so many conditions,” Anthony said. ”A lot of disabilities fall into that.”

Equine therapy focuses on three areas: physical, mental, and emotional. In addition to strengthening core muscles required

Erin Kelly demonstrates alternative riding styles used in therapy. Photo by Rick Gustafson for riding, the horse’s natural rhythms combined with a horse’s warmer body temperature helps relax muscles, improve balance, and provide the riders the sensation of walking normally.

Teamwork is also an important part of the volunteer’s and rider’s experience. Each rider works with a certified therapeutic riding instructor (CTRI) and, ideally, two volunteers. Each team member performs specific duties such as leading and side walking to brace a rider. These activities cater to the student in ways they may not have experienced in the normal course of their lives.

The therapists feel this element of teamwork and the courage to mount an animal the size of a horse helps boost self-esteem.

In addition to the physical and mental benefits, riders form emotional attachments to the therapists, volunteers and especially the horses. This comes, in part, from the specific nature of the animals selected for the program.

Each horse is chosen for its ability to adapt to the unique riding situations they will encounter. Trainers blow bubbles near the animals and condition them to nonstandard riding such as unbalanced riders,

students riding backwards, or kneeling.

Horses lacking this temperament are not leased by the program.

Depending on the strength and disposition of the rider, activities in a one-hour session can include the volunteer leader guiding the horse on a straight path. Stronger and more confidant students do “crazy walks” where the horse is guided through a series of zigzags. Still more advanced riders trot with their team alongside.

During any one-hour session, there can be up to five teams working in the arena simultaneously. So volunteers are trained to lead the animals at least two horse lengths away from other teams to allow the side walkers and therapists enough room to pass comfortably.

With as many as eight sessions in a single workday, the demand for volunteers is high, but the ideal volunteer is not necessarily the one with the most experience with horses. As with most organizations that rely on volunteers, showing up is a big asset.

Anthony suggests that new volunteers start slow, taking a single two-hour shift rather than working the entire day.

Volunteers undergo background checks and must be physically able to do strenuous work. Anthony likes to set clear expectations for her volunteers, but says it is rare that someone contacts her who isn’t excited about the work, even though some of the work may involve mucking out stalls.

The morning of volunteer training begins with a video followed by a short tour.

Then it is time for work. The group is broken into three small groups to simulate a day in the life of a volunteer. Before the end of the morning’s three-and-a-half-hour session, each volunteer will have completed most of the tasks that encompass a typical volunteer day: saddling a horse with either Western or English tack; side walking and leading practice; and setting up a surcingle, a strap with handles that is commonly used for the therapy.

“We get so many great volunteers. They each bring something unique,” Anthony says. “We’ve had people who volunteered and have stayed on for years, and others who show up a couple of times and we never see them again. That’s the world of volunteers.”

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF JAN. 19, 2015

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Use that Arian charm to help make a difficult workplace transition easier for everyone. News about a long-awaited decision can be confusing. Don’t jump to conclusions.

TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Although you might well be tempted to be more extravagant than you should be at this time, I’m betting you’ll let your sensible Bovine instinct guide you toward moderation.

GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) An opportunity for travel could come with some problems regarding travel companions and other matters. So be sure you read all the fine print before you start packing.

crossword • sudoku & weekly horoscope

GALLERY OF GAMES

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Make an effort to complete your usual workplace tasks before volunteering for extra duty. Scrambling to catch up later on could create some resentment among your colleagues.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) A financial matter could have you rethinking your current spending plans. You might want to recheck your budget to see where you can cut back on expenses until the situation improves.

VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) One way to make your case for that promotion you’ve been hoping for might be to put your planning skills to work in helping to shape up a project that got out of hand. Good luck.

LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Be careful about “experts” who have no solid business background. Instead, seek advice on enhancing your business prospects from bona fide sources with good success records.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Standing up to support a colleague’s viewpoint -- even if it’s unpopular -- can be difficult if you feel outnumbered. But you’ll win plaudits for your honesty and courage.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) While progress continues on resolving that recurring problem, you might feel it’s taking too long. But these things always need to develop at their own pace. Be patient.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Someone close to you might have a financial problem and seek your advice. If you do decide to get involved, insist on seeing everything that might be relevant to this situation.

Return flows from Applicant’s Sand Creek Wells, as decreed in Case No. 09CW115, Water Division 2. 5.2.9. Cherokee’s Municipal Wells 1-8, 13, and 15-17; as well as Sweetwater No. 5; all originally decreed in Case No. 53483-B, Pueblo County District Court, Colorado. 5.3. Complete Statement of Plan for Augmentation: Pursuant to this augmentation plan, Applicant will replace stream depletions caused by withdrawal of any not-nontributary groundwater, and relinquish the appropriate amount of water to the stream a s required by C.R.S. § 37-90-137 and Rule 8 of the Denver Basin Rules, 2 CCR 402-6, as applicable. 5.3.1. Depletions 5.3.1.1. NotNontributary Groundwater Withdrawals.

Dawson aquifer water beneath the subject properties has been determined to be "Not Non Tributary" as defined in CRS § 37-90-103(10.7). As such, Applicants will be required to replace actual out-of-priority depletions as described in CRS § 3790-137(9)(c.5)(I). During the time period the subject not-nontributary groundwater is withdrawn from the Dawson Aquifer, Applicant will replace actual stream depletions caused by such withdrawals, to the extent necessary to prevent injury, based upon aquifer conditions in existence at the time of this application or at the time of the decree to be entered herein. Once Applicant has ceased withdrawal of not-nontributary groundwater from the Dawson Aquifer, Applicant will replace injurious stream depletions caused by prior withdrawal of such groundwater. The timing, amount, and location of such depletions

Misc. Private Legals

depletions as described in CRS § 3728ity 90-137(9)(c.5)(I). During the time period

the subject not-nontributary groundwater is withdrawn from the Dawson Aquifer, Applicant will replace actual stream depletions caused by such withdrawals, to the extent necessary to prevent injury, based upon aquifer conditions in existence at the time of this application or at the time of the decree to be entered herein. Once Applicant has ceased withdrawal of not-nontributary groundwater from the Dawson Aquifer, Applicant will replace injurious stream depletions caused by prior withdrawal of such groundwater. The timing, amount, and location of such depletions will be determined by running the State Engineer’s current version of the Denver Basin Depletion Model in the AUG3 format. 5.3.1.2. Nontributary Groundwater Withdrawals. The decrees for the subject nontributary groundwater rights all require a relinquishment of 2% of the amount withdrawn. Applicant will effectuate such relinquishment by release of 2% of the amount produced, or alternatively, by replacement of the same amount of water through one of the above-listed replacement sources. 5.3.2. If Applicant elects not to produce any nontributary water which has been adjudicated to the subject wells, all of the adjudicated nontributary groundwater adjudicated as such, as more particularly described above, will be considered reserved for the purpose of replacing postpumping stream depletions caused by withdrawal of not-nontributary groundwater. If Applicant has produced nontributary groundwater by the time withdrawal of not-nontributary ground water ceases, the amount of water considered to be reserved for post-pumping depletions will be the amount of water adjudicated as nontributary groundwater, times a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total amount of nontributary water adjudicated in the decrees listed above minus the amount of nontributary water withdrawn by that date, and the denominator will be the total amount of nontributary water adjudicated in the decrees listed above. 5.3.3 Because depletions may occur to stream systems in Water Divisions 1 and 2 this application is being filed in both divisions.

In the event that return flows from the subject uses are not sufficient to replace depletions to the South Platte River basin, Applicants request that the total actual amount of depletion to all stream systems be returned to the Arkansas River stream system and for a finding that those replacements are sufficient. Applicants will reserve an adequate amount of the nontributary groundwater underlying the land to meet post-pumping augmentation requirements but reserve the right to substitute the use of other nontributary groundwater underlying other land including return flows for replacement of post-pumping depletions at such time that post pumping depletions may begin. 5.3.4 Ability to withdraw groundwater from additional wells. All of the subject decrees allow Applicant to drill additional wells to withdraw the subject groundwater. Applicant may drill a replacement well for any of the above-listed structures, and if approved by SEO, such replacement well will automatically be included in this plan. If Applicant decides to drill a new well not listed herein that is not a replacement well, then Applicant will do so under the retained jurisdiction of this Court. 5.3.5. Applicant does not request any change in the terms and conditions of the previous decrees referenced herein except as specifically requested herein, or as necessary to allow operation of the requested plan for augmentation. 5.3.6. Applicant will not withdraw not-nontributary groundwater from the subject wells until Applicant has obtained the Court-approved augmentation plan sought herein or an administratively approved plan allowing such withdrawals.

5.3.7. Nothing herein is intended to create any implication that the granting of the application in this case will affect the entitlement of any person to receive water from Applicant. Rights to water service will continue to be governed by the applicable contracts and agreements, as well as Applicant’s rules and regulations. 5.3.8.

Attorney: Veronica A. Sperling, Buchanan and Sperling, P.C., 7703 Ralston Road, Arvada, Colorado 80002, 303-431-9141, vsperling@tbvs.net. APPLICATION FOR FINDING OF DILIGENCE IN DOUGLAS, JEFFERSON AND ARAPAHOE COUNTIES 2. Names of structures: Chatfield Reservoir and South Platte Reservoir. 3. Describe conditional water right giving the following from the Referee=s Ruling and Judgment and Decree: A. Date of Original Decree: June 16, 1987. Case No.: 84CW411. Court: District Court, Water Division 1. B. Date of Change Decree: August 27, 1997. Case No.: 93CW82.

Court: District Court, Water Division 1.

Among other things, the decree in Case No. 93CW82 approved South Platte Reservoir as an alternate place of storage for the subject water right. C. Decrees awarding findings of diligence: Diligence decrees were entered in Case No. 93CW81 on June 9, 1995 and in Case No. 01CW101 on December 10, 2008. D. Locations: Chatfield Reservoir: The reservoir formed by the Chatfield Dam, an existing structure located in Sections 6 and 7, Township 6 South, Range 68 West, of the 6th P.M. and in Section 1, Township 6 South, Range 69 West, of the 6th P.M.; South Platte Reservoir, formerly known as South Platte Lake: Located in portions of the W1/2 and the SE1/4 of Section 31, Township 5 South, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M., and in the E1/2 of the SE1/4 and the SE1/4 of the NE1/4 of Section 36, Township 5 South, Range 69 West of the 6th P.M. E. Source: The South Platte River and tributaries thereto, including Plum Creek and its tributaries. F. Appropriation date: September 7, 1984; Amount: 6,000 acre-feet, CONDITIONAL. G. Use: Municipal, domestic, industrial, commercial, irrigation, stockwatering, recreational, fish and wildlife propagation and maintenance and other beneficial purposes within the South Platte River drainage in Water Division 1. Said water may be also used for exchange purposes, for replacement of depletions resulting from use of water from other sources, for augmentation purposes, and for artificial recharge of the Denver Basin aquifers underlying Highlands Ranch for all of the beneficial uses described in this paragraph 3.G. H. Depth (if well): Not applicable. 4. Provide a detailed outline of what has been done toward completion of the appropriation and application of water to a beneficial use as conditionally decreed, including expenditures: A. The subject water right and its associated structures and sources are part of the unified water supply system for Highlands Ranch. Highlands Ranch is a development consisting of approximately 22,000 acres in Douglas County, including the community of Highlands Ranch.

Proposed development on Highlands Ranch is expected to occur over a long period of time and development of water resources on Highlands Ranch will be controlled by the rate at which residential, commercial, and industrial development on Highlands Ranch occurs. Centennial is responsible for providing a municipal water supply to Highlands Ranch. B. During the diligence period, Centennial continued to engage in efforts to obtain the reallocation of storage space in Chatfield Reservoir from flood control to multipurpose use, including municipal storage (AChatfield Reallocation Project@).

Centennial has participated in reallocation discussions and activities with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (AUSACE@), the Colorado Department of Natural Resources (ACDNR@), the Colorado Water Conservation Board, the Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife, the Denver Water Board and others. Centennial is a cooperating agency providing information to and commenting on drafts of the Feasibility Report/Environmental Impact Study (AFR/EIS@) prepared by the USACE, and has participated in the funding of additional consultants to complement the FR/EIS studies. On January 22, 2009, Centennial and the other entities requesting reallocated storage space in Chatfield Reservoir received the approval of a policy exception from Mr. John Paul Woodley, the Assistant Secretary of the Army, which makes an adjustment to the cost of storage calculation that applies to the Chatfield Reallocation Project, reducing the required payment from all entities from a previous $34,000,000 to $16,285,392.

The final draft FR/EIS for the Chatfield Reallocation Project was issued in June 2012 and the final FR/EIS was issued in July 2013.

14CW3173 United Water and Sanitation District, acting by and through the United Water Acquisition Enterprise (“United” or the “Applicant”), c/o Robert Lembke, 8301 East Prentice Ave., #100, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111, (303) 775-1005. APPLICATION FOR CONDITIONAL WATER RIGHT FOR DIVERSION TO STORAGE IN HIGHLANDS RESERVOIR IN ADAMS, ARAPAHOE, DENVER, DOUGLAS, ELBERT, MORGAN AND WELD COUNTIES. Please send all pleadings and correspondence to: Tod J. Smith, Esq., LAW OFFICE OF TOD J. SMITH, LLC, 2919 Valmont Rd., Suite 205, Boulder, Colorado 80301, tod@tjslaw.com (Attorney for Applicant). Description of Conditional Appropriative Water Right 2.1. Background. In Case No. 13CW3182 (which has been consolidated with Case Nos. 13CW3180 and 13CW3183), United seeks a conditional appropriative water right for storage in Highlands Reservoir. Highlands Reservoir will be an off-channel reservoir located in the NW1/4 of Section 32, Township 1 North, Range 65 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. The Reservoir is described in more detail in paragraph 2 of the application in Case No. 13CW3182. The claimed points of diversion in Case No. 13CW3182 for the Highlands Reservoir are: (1) the United Diversion Facility No. 3, which diverts from the east bank of the South Platte River in the SW1/4 of Section 26, Township 1 South, Range 67 West of the 6th P.M., Adams County, Colorado, located 1,636 feet east of the west line and 1,531 feet north of the south line of said Section 26; and (2) the Burlington Canal Headgate which is, pursuant to a changed point of diversion decreed in Case No. 02CW403, located on the east bank of the South Platte River in the NE1/4 of the SW1/4 of Section 14, Township 3 South, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M., City and County of Denver, Colorado. In Case No. 02CW403, the District Court, Water Division No. 1 addressed the issue of seepage gains in the Beebe Seep Canal, See Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Order, Case No. 02CW403 at ¶¶ 435-446 (Sept. 5, 2008). The Court found, in part, that: Seepage and return flows [in the Beebe Seep Canal] may not be reused, but rather, are subject to appropriation and administration under the priority system as any other waters of a natural stream. See Ready Mixed Concrete Co. v. Farmers Reservoir & Irrigation Co., 115 P.3d 638, 642 (Colo. 2005).

See also Water Supply & Storage Co., 733 P.2d at 682-83. This is true whether the seepage flows directly to the stream or is intercepted by a private ditch on its way to the stream. Ready Mixed Concrete, 115 P.3d at 642. Those waters are available for and subject to appropriation and administration under the priority system just as other waters of the natural stream.

Comstock v. Ramsey, 55 Colo. 244, 25559, 133 P. 1107, 1111 (Colo. 1913). Id. at ¶ 436. The Water Court also found that “the amount of the seepage gain [in the Beebe Seep Canal] averages 1,200 to 1,300 af per year from 1927-2005.” Id. at ¶ 438. See also Order re: Englewood’s Motion for Determination of Question of Law, Case No. 10CW306, District Court, Water Division No. 1 (March 13, 2014).

2.2. Nature of Claim. By this application, United seeks to add point(s) of diversion from the Beebe Seep Canal for delivery of water to storage in Highlands Reservoir.

2.3. Additional Point(s) of Diversion for Highlands Reservoir. Point(s) of diversion from the Beebe Seep Canal for delivery of water to storage in Highlands Reservoir may be located at one, two or all of the following locations: 2.3.1.

How Appropriation Was Initiated. The applicant filed an application for a storage water right in Highlands Reservoir on December 31, 2013, in Case No. 13CW3082. United’s Board of Directors passed a Resolution approving the filing of this application for additional points of diversion of Highlands Reservoir which is attached to this application as Exhibit 1.

2.6. Date Water First Applied to Beneficial Use. Not applicable, conditional water right. 2.7. Amount Claimed. As described in paragraph 2.4 of the application in Case No. 13CW3182. 2.8.

Historical use information: A map showing the approximate locations of the specific parcels of land historically irrigated by the Subject Water Rights is attached as Exhibit C. Aurora does not intend to quantify the lawful historical use of the Brantner water rights on all lands under the Brantner Ditch, but rather only the use attributable to the Subject Water Rights. A summary of the historical diversions for beneficial use pursuant to the priorities described in Paragraph 2.a.vi. is attached as Exhibit D. 3.

Plan of Substitution. a. In connection with the change of water rights described above, Aurora will have return flow replacement obligations resulting from the historical use of the Subject Water Rights.

In addition to water diverted pursuant to the priorities identified in Paragraph 2.a.vi., Aurora may use water from other water rights it owns or controls to meet such replacement obligations. Consequently, the point at which replacement is required pursuant to this plan of substitution will be the locations along the South Platte River at which the replacement obligations must be met. In general, these locations are bounded by the following points, although further engineering may reveal that the reaches actually affected are smaller: i. South Platte River - Upstream Point: Approximately one-half mile upstream of the 168th Avenue crossing of the South Platte River in the NW/4 of Section 6, T1S, R66W. ii. South Platte River Downstream Point: At the confluence of Little Dry Creek and the South Platte River in the NE/4 of Section 12, T2N, R67W. iii.

Big Dry Creek - Upstream Point: Near the point at which the Brantner Ditch crosses Big Dry Creek in the NE/4 of Section 28, T1N, R67W. iv. Big Dry Creek - Downstream Point: At the confluence of Big Dry Creek and the South Platte River in the SW/4 of Section 6, T1N, R66W. v. Little Dry Creek - Upstream Point: Approximately 2 miles northeast of where the Brantner Ditch crosses Little Dry Creek in the SE/4 of Section 35, T2N, R67W. vi. Little Dry Creek - Downstream Point: At the confluence of Little Dry Creek and the South Platte River in the NE/4 of Section 12, T2N, R67W. b. Water rights to be used for substitution: Aurora may use any fully consumable water derived from the exercise of the rights identified on Exhibit E hereto, including without limitation treated municipal effluent and lawn irrigation return flows resulting from a previous use of such water, to meet its replacement obligations. c. Substituted water will be released at or upstream from the location at which the replacement obligation must be met. To the extent substituted water is released upstream from the location at which the replacement obligation must be met, appropriate transit losses will be assessed. d. In the operation of this plan of substitution, Aurora will not be creating a depleted reach of any natural stream. Therefore, this plan of substitution is not an appropriative right. The locations from which Aurora may release water pursuant to this plan are the following: i. Gilcrest Reservoir Outlet located in the SE/4 NE/4 of Section 26, T4N, R67W, 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. ii. The outlet for Aurora-Everist Reservoir Complexes No. 1 and 2, located in the SW/4 NE/4 of Section 30, T2N, R66W, 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. iii.

JDS Hydro Consultants, Inc. performed the following engineering services for the Nazarene Church during the diligence period: general water system planning for redundancy, emergencies, and future water use; well permit preparation and submission; well permit research; water resources reports for Teller County; water tank storage and treatment design; water storage addition, well drilling and treatment updates; pump design for wells and distribution system; additions and improvements to water distribution piping to convey new sources throughout the camp; well test pumping and source evaluation; county planning assistance; preparation and submission of several Applications for Construction Approval to Colorado Department of Health and Environment relating to treatment, storage and source improvements for above-listed projects. The Nazarene Church has spent approximately $54,000 on such engineering services during the diligence period.

(3) Water system upgrades. The Nazarene Church installed a new 30,000 gal. underground concrete storage at a cost of approximately $40,000, installed new water lines at a cost of approximately $30,000, and installed new equipment, pumps, pump house, electric upgrades at a cost of approximately $30,000.
