CU, Jabs simplify art of starting business
DOUBLE TAKE
Center for Entrepreneurship opens at CU South Denver By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com
The Dec. 13, 2013 shooting at Arapahoe High School left two students dead, and painful emotions and questions swirled into 2014. The biggest question seemed to be this: Could the school district have
Jake Jabs would have seized the opportunity to draw from Denver’s deep pool of entrepreneurial talent. Most Coloradans know him as the successful, tiger-loving pitchman and founder of American Furniture Warehouse. But before his face and distinctive voice made their way onto our television sets, Jabs navigated a world unknown to him. For years, he struggled to avoid the common pitfalls that can derail a fledgling business. “Everything was by the seat of my pants, and I made a lot of mistakes,” Jabs says. Things have come full circle, and the University of Colorado’s Center for Entrepreneurship now has Jabs’ name attached to it. He Jabs donated $10 million to the school, primarily because he wanted to give Denver’s ever-growing contingent of entrepreneurs a chance to bypass those headaches. And because there is an inherent willingness among seasoned entrepreneurs to assist their businessgreen brethren, Jabs and CU are putting the pieces in place this spring to breed success. Known as the Launchpad, the program is intended to help entrepreneurs either start their own business or improve an existing business. “I’m a big believer in entrepreneurship,” Jabs said. “It’s driving America — new ideas and new programs, how to do things better.” By offering entrepreneurship classes at CU’s new facility at The Wildlife Experience, on the southwest corner of Lincoln Avenue and Peoria Street, the south metro area is about to become a wellspring for professional talent, churning out gleaming examples of what can happen with a little bit of guidance. CU is partnering with community colleges to bring in students who have considered pursuing a full degree but don’t have the necessary time or money. By taking just a few eight-week courses on their own schedule, students can earn a certificate of entrepreneurship from CU, bolstering their traditional education with the knowledge of how to start a business. The idea is to send them out into the world well-equipped to face any challenge. “We teach them the basic skills of business: accounting and balancing a budget and how to borrow money, how to make ends meet and live within your means,” Jabs said. Classes count toward a bachelor’s degree for anyone interested in continuing their education. While the instruction is meant to be allencompassing, there are some things that can’t be taught in a classroom. Local business leaders act as both professor and mentor, helping individual students find their path. The director of the Jake Jabs Center for Entrepreneurship, Madhavan Parthasarathy, Ph.D., who goes by MP, said the close relationships provide students with an “experiential connection, and they need that almost as much as academics.” “The academic education will help them write a business plan, but they have to know

South metro stories of the year

A look at the top 10 Staff report In the south metro Denver area, this past year was one of hope and change, inspiration and pain, growth and remembrance. The following are the top 10 stories of 2014, in no particular order, as chosen by Colorado Community Media’s editorial staff.
Business is booming
In November, Colorado’s unemployment rate fell to 4.1 percent, the lowest since early 2008, before the recession slammed the country. The south metro area did its part in job creation in 2014, as businesses continued to find the region an attractive place to set up shop or expand. Some of the major developments of the year: • Sterling Ranch won another legal battle in February and forged ahead in northwest Douglas County. At build-out,
the development is expected to include more than 12,000 homes and spawn a number of businesses around it. • Charles Schwab opened its new Lone Tree campus in early October. As many as 4,000 employees are ultimately expected to work inside the office buildings. • Also in October, plans were unveiled for The Jones District, and early stages of groundwork began on the mixed-use development in Centennial. The project calls for 1.8 million square feet of resi-
dential, commercial and retail establishments. • In November, a $177 million project broke ground in Castle Rock. The Promenade at Castle Rock will feature 1 million square feet of retail and dining establishments. Meanwhile, national retailers continued to pick the south metro area as their first Colorado home. Following in the footsteps of IKEA and Cabela’s in recent years, L.L. Bean chose the area, opening in Lone Tree in November. At the same time, the area continued to grow into something of a hub for the craft beer industry, with breweries popping up, particularly along the C-470 corridor.

Local kittens hit the big time Several chosen for photos in calendar By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com Kittens live as adventurous a life as they can muster within the confines of their home. But sometimes if they’re spotted in the act of adorability, they can become an international star, if only for a day. Curious, bug-eyed and playful, they have names like Miss Annabelle, Sweetie Cake and Fancy Pants, and they hail from as far away as Canada and Japan. The majority of the subjects in the “365 Days of Kittens” calendar for 2015, however, live in the United States, and a few are from the Denver metro area. There is “Yoda,” a gray ball of fluff from Parker snapped while stalking prey in a patch of grass. Then, there are Sydney and Aimee, Highlands Ranch siblings with big, blue eyes and pointy ears, who look like they’re up to no good. Kathy Flanagan, a resident of Castle Rock, has five of her kittens featured in the 2015 calendar, distributed by Workman Publishing Co. Inc. In fact, several kittens that she has fostered on behalf of the Cat Care Society in Lakewood have crept their way onto the pages of the calendar and, in turn, into the hearts of feline-lovers over the years. This year, Divot, Widget and Brassie each get their own day, while lazing litter-mates Fancy Pants and Fanta are forced to share Sept. 3. “It’s so much fun,” says Flanagan, who has fostered more than 300 kittens. “Everyone (selected for the calendar) gets one for Christmas. I have one for work and home.” It was 13 years ago that a friend gave her a kitten calendar, and Flanagan saw the entry form on the back. Knowing that she had “plenty of great raw material” to work with, Flanagan started shooting photos with her digital camera. The photos that appear in the 2015 calendar were taken more than five years ago, and Brassie, Widget and Divot are all grown up and have found forever families. By being immortalized in the calendar though, memories of the kittens will endure.

done more to prevent Karl Pierson’s attack, which ended with his suicide shortly after he fatally shot Claire Davis? In October, 10 months after the shooting, the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office released a 37-page summary of its investigative report. The probe found no criminal liability on the part of the school district. The report revealed that Pierson had several run-ins with school administration and had kept a diary that was a window into a troubled soul bent on mayhem and murder.
January 2, 2015 But 2014 was also a year of healing for the Arapahoe High community. In August, Clarity Commons, a peaceful parklike space, was dedicated in Claire Davis’ honor on the Arapahoe campus. The school library where Pierson shot himself to death was remodeled and reopened. And on the one-year anniversary, hundreds turned out for a candlelight ceremony at the school. “We are stronger, we are more aware, we are focused, we are kinder, we are united and, ultimately, we are successful,” student body president Sanjay Patil said during the event.
More than a game
Bailey Roby just wanted to play. But the Mountain Vista High School basketball player made headlines around the
country when he couldn’t. His two prosthetic legs got him up and down the court just fine — it was the Colorado High School Activities Association that temporarily kept him out of the game. Citing safety risks to Roby and the players around him, CHSAA officials in January ruled that Roby, a senior reserve for the Golden Eagles, could no longer play. Midway through the season, it looked as if Roby wouldn’t be able to contribute on the court as Vista pushed for the playoffs. News broke about Roby’s plight and traveled around the nation. At home in Highlands Ranch, his classmates took up his cause with a massive social media campaign. Less than a week later, CHSAA said OK, Roby can play, as long as both teams agree on certain safety parameters. Vista would advance all the way to the state semifinals, but fans of the team would look at Roby’s re-entry as the biggest victory of the season.

The University of Colorado’s announcement in early March that it would begin classes at The Wildlife Experience in northern Douglas County in the fall was only the start. In a surprise move, the founders of The Wildlife Experience announced in September that it was donating the museum to CU, a $40 million gift that is among the largest in the school’s history. The university has renovated 11,000 square feet of underutilized space and began holding classes in the fall. A second phase of construction will begin in 2015. Meanwhile, administrators from CU South Denver have promised to maintain The Wildlife Experience’s most popular programs and keep the Extreme Screen Theater open to the public. CU South Denver has courses in business, engineering, public health, education and nursing. The planned expansion of classes in various areas of study means the university’s profile will only grow in the Douglas County community. The first classes were tailored to fit in with existing industries in Douglas and Arapahoe counties, creating a symbiotic relationship that is expected to flourish well into the future.
Near-record run comes to end
When Valor Christian’s football team arrived at Sports Authority Field at Mile High on Nov. 29, it was looking to match the state record for most consecutive championships. Limon won six in a row in the 1960s. Valor would have to settle for five — accumulated in three classifications — after losing a thrilling, one-point game to Cherry Creek, a previously powerful program now on the upswing under one of the state’s all-time greatest coaches, Dave Logan. Earlier in the season, Creek ended another Valor streak, handing the Eagles their first loss to a Colorado opponent in 28 games. But Valor was undaunted and wound up where they were accustomed to being: at the Denver Broncos’ home field, playing for a championship. The Eagles trailed early in the title tilt, then rallied like a champion late to take the lead and stand on the cusp of matching history. A highlight-reel touchdown run by Milo Hall pulled the Bruins to within a point. But there would be no tie this late, with this much at stake. Logan opted to go for a two-point try. Creek converted, stopped the ensuing Valor drive and took home the ninth title in its history and first since 1996.

over the post in September. • In late March, John Brackney resigned with little explanation after 10 years as president and CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce. In June, Robert Golden was named his successor. • In July, Jack Hilbert left his post as a Douglas County Commissioner, a seat he was elected to in 2006, for a job with the Colorado Department of Human Services, Child Welfare Protection Division. • David Weaver, Douglas County sheriff since 2005, was appointed to replace Hilbert in late July. Weaver was then elected to the seat on the board of county commissioners in November. • Also in July, Douglas County Undersheriff Tony Spurlock was appointed to replace Weaver as sheriff. Voters chose Spurlock for the job in November. The November election brought about a number of new faces in south metro leadership for 2015, including replacements for term-limited state Reps. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, and Spencer Swalm, R-Centennial; term-limited state Sen. Ted Harvey, R-Highlands Ranch; and state Rep. Carole Murray, R-Castle Rock, who decided that three terms are enough. In addition, Littleton Public Schools Superintendent Scott Murphy announced in October that he will retire after the end of the school year.
A banner year for Englewood Schools History books should mark 2014 as a year of significant events for Englewood Schools, from construction of a new campus to Brian Ewert being selected as state Superintendent of the Year. The most visible change to the schools happened as all Englewood High School buildings except the auditorium and field house were demolished so a new seventh- through 12th-grade campus could be constructed and major renovations were done at the Englewood Middle School building. When school resumes Jan. 8, the high school classes will be in the newly completed wing, the middle school will be in the wing of the campus where high school classes were for the first half of the year, and Colorado’s Finest Alternative High School will move from northwestern Englewood to the middle school building. But the district’s focus has been improving on its mission of providing a quality education for all students, and 2014 saw positive changes in achievement. The faculty and administrators developed and instituted a streamlined instructional model for the district, and students were provided with personal technology in an effort to help students learn better. The results have been improvement and steady growth in student performance, contributing to the district accreditation improving two levels. The changes and improvements were noted when the state selected Brian Ewert as Colorado School Superintendent of the Year. He said he was honored and it was noted it was 1991 when Roscoe Davidson was the last Englewood superintendent to be named superintendent of the year.
Urban renewal renewed
It all started subtly enough in Littleton, with whispers of “economic development” and “revitalization.” After it evolved into unabashed calls for “urban renewal,” which can involve words like “blight” and “condemnation,” conversations devolved into flaring tempers, name-calling and evident frustration. It became apparent after City Manager Michael Penny took the reins in October 2011 that he had big changes in mind for Littleton, a city that’s no stranger to resistance. One of the first things to be revitalized was the city’s urban renewal authority itself, which changed its name from the Riverfront Authority — its first, only and unsuccessful redevelopment project in the 1980s — to Littleton Invests for Tomorrow. Citizens for Rational Development, which has opposed most new development in the city, also kicked things into high gear, challenging LIFT’s every move. That spurred a new group, Littleton Strong, to form in support of urban renewal. Today, Littleton is faced with competing measures on the ballot for a citizeninitiated special election on March 3, arbitration with Arapahoe County, verbal warfare in public meetings and, likely, a bunch of everyday citizens who are pretty confused about the whole thing.
Voters approve open carry
Castle Rock voters took to the polls to pass two highly publicized, and hotly debated, gun-related ballot measures in 2014. The ballot in the Aug. 19 special election contained two yes-or-no questions. The first was regarding the authority of the town manager to regulate the open carry of firearms in town-owned facilities and parks. The second question was on a charter amendment that would require a town vote to change gun laws in the future. Following the election, the town faced two legal challenges regarding Castle Rock’s election procedure — one of which has been dismissed and one that is still pending — and a recount. After the recount, that margin had increased to 154 votes, with 4,749 votes for and 4,595 votes against. Ballot Measure B, which puts any future changes to gun laws in the hands of town residents, passed easily the first time around, with 71.2 percent voting yes. That total difference after the recount increased by just a single vote, with 6,615 votes for and 2,683 votes against. More than 9,400 of the 32,000 ballots mailed to voters were returned — the most ever in a Town of Castle Rock election.
Changes and court cases in DCSD
Tension continued between the Douglas County School District and parent-led community groups in 2014, following a trend of recent years since the election of reform-minded school board members. Some of the key events: • In February, the district decided to appeal a Denver judge’s ruling that it violated campaign law in the 2013 school board election. • A return by the high schools in Highlands Ranch to a more traditional class schedule, away from the block schedule implemented in 2012.
• An arbitrator’s June report in favor of the teachers’ union in a complaint that the district violated its sick-leave bank agreement. DCSD said it was an “improperly obtained opinion,” and it would seek a fair process to resolve the issue. • The board’s July vote to opt out of the 2014-15 National School Lunch Program. • Disagreement over teacher-turnover statistics. State figures showed DCSD 2013-14 turnover at 17.3 percent, while the district maintained turnover was at 13.1 percent. • An October lawsuit against DCSD by the American Humanist Association
for alleged engagement in religious fundraising events. DCSD said it will “vigorously defend” its students’ rights. • The state’s November decision to elevate DCSD’s performance rating to its highest “accredited with distinction” tier. • And closing out the year, the Dec. 10 oral arguments surrounding the district’s voucher, or Choice Scholarship, program before the Colorado Supreme Court. A decision could take up to nine months. Mike DiFerdinando, Chris Michlewicz, Tom Munds, Jane Reuter, Chris Rotar and Jennifer Smith contributed to this report.

Lone Tree takes steps on bridge Designs will be presented to public in spring By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lone Tree’s leaders foresee the proposed Lincoln Avenue pedestrian bridge as much more than just a method for ensuring safe non-motorized passage over a busy throughway. They view it as a way to bridge the city’s two sides, and a potentially postcard-picturesque symbol of the rapidly growing, successful community. “I think we’ve got an opportunity to do something really special with it,” said Lone Tree public works director John Cotten. “We’d like to create something that will become kind of an icon for Lone Tree.” The city council on Dec. 16 approved a $156,000 contract with Fentress Architects — designers of Denver International Airport’s white canopied terminal and the Denver Broncos’ stadium — to create conceptual designs for the bridge. Those will be presented to the public next spring, with construction tentatively set to begin in August. The bridge likely would open in spring 2016. The approximately 170-foot structure
A proposed pedestrian bridge would span Lincoln Avenue just west of Heritage Hills Circle between the buildings that house Bank of the West and Chipotle, on the far right in this photo. Photo by Jane Reuter would span Lincoln from just west of its intersection with Heritage Hills Circle, between Charles Schwab and the Lincoln Commons shopping center. “One of the things we want this bridge to do is sort of unify the city,” Cotten said. “There are some people who are starting to look at it as the north side and the south side. We need to be one city. We’re hoping this can be not only a physical but symbolic
unification of the city. I think it has much greater implication than just getting people across the street.” Lone Tree annexed the six-square-mile RidgeGate development south of Lincoln Avenue in 2000. RidgeGate is home to the Lone Tree Arts Center and recreation center and is the future site of a new Lone Tree library. The north side of Lone Tree includes the post office, Cook Creek pool, current
library, movie theater and Park Meadows shopping center. With such widely popular amenities on both sides of Lincoln, demand for easy pedestrian and bicycle access across the increasingly busy Lincoln Avenue is growing fast. “I think as the city continues to grow on the south side, it’s going to become even more important,” Cotten said. The cost to construct the bridge is estimated at about $4 million, about the same amount the Regional Transportation District paid to build the Interstate 25 light rail overpass to Lincoln Station. Cotten said distinctive, cost-effective architectural elements could be included in the proposed pedestrian bridge designs. “You could have something really special that doesn’t have to be really expensive,” he said. Cotten described Fentress as “one of the pre-eminent architects in the U.S., if not the world,” and said CEO Curt Fentress attended the city’s kick-off meeting about the design. “We’re fortunate to have them available,” he said. “They’re very excited about this. (Curt) doesn’t come to every project they do. It’s not a big project for him, but it’s about building something special.”
No timeline for Douglas County school survey Vendor bid ends `due to board decision not to proceed’ By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com A Douglas County School District community survey, repeatedly requested by school board critics for the last couple years, is not planned anytime soon. DCSD issued a request for potential survey vendors in June 2014, but the bid was not awarded “due to board decision not to proceed in the community survey effort,” according to Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System. The online system provides local government agencies a way to notify vendors of bid opportunities. School board president Kevin Larsen said the board is still considering the best way to conduct an effective survey. “We’re still moving ahead but we’re doing it very deliberately,” he said. “There’s no never, but there’s no specific timetable. We are continuing to examine the right way to proceed.” Larsen said the information from a survey could inform the district’s policies and vision. “So we want to make sure that we get input from every part of the community, including parents, teachers, students and community members,” he said. Douglas County resident Pat Crowley is disappointed. “It shouldn’t take them that long; they’ve been promising it since the spring,” she said. “It’s been promised multiple times. And every other school district seems to be able to get a survey out. “I’ve lived here 22 years and I want my voice heard. I’m disappointed that the community’s voice is not being heard.”
The district has not conducted its once-annual survey since 2012, and those results were deemed inconclusive because of a lower-than-desired response rate, according to DCSD. Some parents said then the district was ignoring the results because they didn’t like responses critical of the voucher — or Choice Scholarship — program and the direction the district was headed in its efforts to reform education. During a June 2014 board of education meeting, Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen said staff would research costs and options for a third-party professional survey and return to the board with recommendations by early fall. “I think it’s a great time to go out and gather feedback,” Fagen said then, noting DCSD was about to release an updated version of its strategic plan. Audience members applauded the news. During a Dec. 16 meeting at Buffalo Ridge Elementary, another parent repeated the survey request to district leaders there to talk about the principal’s resignation. “I’d like to encourage the district to put into place a routine, anonymous survey,” said Kate Calhoon, adding teachers need “a layer of anonymity to speak freely.” “We as parents have been asking for that … and have gotten pretty much dismissed,” she said. “That’s been pretty frustrating.” DCSD assistant superintendent of elementary education Ted Knight said the state’s biannual teacher survey provides valuable information. The Colorado Department of Education will conduct the Teaching, Empowering, Leading and Learning survey in February and March 2015. “We get the data at the end, so it is completely anonymous,” he said. Crowley said the TELL survey is not detailed enough. “It doesn’t have any questions on it that are specific to upper administration of the school district, or the direction of the
PARKER NEWS IN A HURRY Car break-ins widespread The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and Parker Police Department are asking for the public’s help in solving vehicle trespasses. Since late July, there have been 80 to 100 reported vehicle trespasses in the Parker area that appear to be related. The cases appear to involve juveniles, as the items stolen are miscellaneous items in cars, such as cigarettes, change and sunglasses. In one vehicle trespass in November, a Glock handgun was stolen. It is likely to be a handful of suspects and the vehicles are described to have been unlocked. Call Metro Denver Crimestoppers at 720-913-STOP (7867) with information. Callers can remain anonymous.

Recycle Christmas trees
The Town of Parker will run its Christmas Tree Recycling Program through Jan. 25. This year’s drop-off site will again be the east paved parking lot near the Salisbury Park baseball fields, 11920 Motsenbocker Road. It’s available to residents only. Both green and flocked real trees are accepted. Before dropping off any Christmas trees, remove all plastic tarps, tree stands and nails, ornaments, lights, garland and tinsel. No artificial trees, garland or wreaths with wire backing will be accepted. Drop off during park hours only, 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., and do not illegally dump any other items at the drop-off location. Commercial tree lot disposal or yard waste is not permitted. The trees collected by the program will be chipped into mulch, which will be available at no charge to residents starting the first week in January. Remaining mulch will be utilized throughout the town and not discarded in a landfill. Residents should not place Christ-
mas trees in garbage containers. Contact the Town of Parker at 303-840-9546 with further questions.
Seedling trees available The Douglas County Conservation District, in cooperation with the Colorado State Forest Service, has seedling trees available for sale to local residents. There is no minimum amount of property required to purchase these trees and shrubs. There are a wide variety of species available such as bare root shrubs and trees as well as small and regular potted deciduous and coniferous trees. This year the nursery is offering a variety of perennial flowering plants. The trees and shrubs are to be planted for conservation uses such as windbreaks and shelter belts, living snow fences, erosion control, wildlife habitat, and reforestation. The trees may not be used for ornamental purposes nor may they be resold as live transplants. Order forms are available at www. dcconservation.com or by calling 303-688-3042 ext. 100 or emailing pam. brewster@co.nacdnet.net. The last day for ordering is March 30, for pickup on April 15 in Castle Rock, in time for spring planting.
school district, or teachers’ opinions of the leadership at the district level,” she said. “It’s only at the individual school level. It’s not a fully comprehensive survey.” Larsen said any future survey would be different from those DCSD did previously, which means the process is more timeconsuming. “We’ll be looking for information that can help us either continue what we’re doing, or look at what needs to be modified or communicated better so the public, people in the schools and the community at large can all feel engaged and part of this,” he said. “We’re taking our time and trying to do it really well.” “I think it’s going to be very important to do a very thoughtful process to get a survey conducted that gives us that kind of comprehensive feedback. That’s why (we’re taking) the measured care and true deliberation.”

Digression could be a side-to-side effect I am going to column-up today, because upping something is the latest gimmick expression, and I try to monkey see and monkey-up whenever I can. This column is gluten-free. It is also dust-free, peanut-free and animal dander-free. But I am supposed to warn you about the side effects, if you decide to read the whole thing. We usually think of side effects as being bad or harmful. But not all of them are. The side effects of love are pretty great: the intimacy, the heart-to-heart conversations, the breathless yearning for each other, breaking up, making up. Sunset walks, road trips, cornhole tournaments in the Midwest, playful arguments about the Spanish Inquisition. Studies have shown that my columns might cause some very interesting secondary effects. You may become erudite. If you have an erudition that lasts longer than four hours, congratulations. Don’t call your physician. And don’t call your doctor either. You might want a baked potato covered with cottage cheese. That’s the way I take it. The glass may no longer look half full. It might not even look half empty. I think we’re running on empty. The song “Running on Empty” was written by Jackson Browne. On the way into a Pink Floyd concert in Phoenix in 1977, a kid came up to me and said, “Are you Jackson Browne?” I guess I looked a little like he did
back then, but I don’t have his jaw. I started to sing “Doctor My Eyes,” and the kid said, “Never mind.” You might take an interest in hypothyroidism, and look up all of the signs and symptoms. I have it. I have to take pills, otherwise I guess I go off the rails. The pills have a name that no one can spell. And there is a reason for that. The chemists were all a little punchy when they came up these pills, and decided to have some fun at our expense. I take Thansyllapectinocus. It’s an anagram of “Can’t spell this, can you?” Those rascals. You might become preoccupied with finding out why they named Des Moines “Des Moines,” just like I was. I learned that they were going to name it “Nancy Louise,” but eventually thought better of it. You could experience Restless Lego Syndrome. The question becomes: Do you make an aircraft carrier or Ginger Rogers? You may try to come up with some
surprising uses for vinegar. You might worry about growing hair on your teeth. Out of the blue, you will start to use your damn turn signals for a change. Inexplicably, you might drive to an animal shelter and look at all of the great dogs and cats that need a home. You will finally give Beethoven a try. You will start to express yourself in tangents, like I do. Someone will say that it’s been a good year, and you will do five minutes on the history of vulcanization. You will find the Cheetos in the freezer, like I do. But don’t worry. This isn’t going to shorten your intestines by 21 feet. (I am paraphrasing Steve Martin.) You will forget about this column an hour after you read it and all of these side effects will have worn off. That’s the same thing that happens when I eat at that wonderful new Chinese restaurant. I forget what I had for lunch an hour later. I forget the last time I ate there. We’re getting close to the end here, and as I said, some side effects aren’t all that bad. For example, when one of my readers hits me in the face with a pie, I automatically begin to do the “Soupy Shuffle” — and that’s pretty good.

Don’t limit attempts to seek a better life Let me ask you a simple question, and you can take just a few seconds to think about this and answer it honestly. So here it is, do you think there is something you can do or say in the next day, week, month or year to make your personal life or your professional life worse? Of course the answer is yes, we could all torpedo our lives if we really tried to, couldn’t we? I mean, some of us can do something in the next few seconds or minutes to make things go horribly wrong. Now answer the same question slightly differently, is there something you can do in the next day, week, month, or year to make your personal life or your professional life better? And, of course, the answer once again is yes. So if we know that there are things we can personally do to make all aspects of our lives better, or even just any aspect of our life better, why don’t we? For some, it’s just because they have never known any differently, they allow things to happen and influence their directions and actions instead of setting their own
course for success. They attach their sail to someone else’s boat. Now, believe it or not, there are also some that are of the belief that good things or goodness only happen to other people and that those good things are out of their grasp. Or they subscribe to the old saying that “no good deed goes unpunished.” It’s time we changed that thinking and believe in goodness, good people, and good and worthy goals. Remember the two questions above, we get to choose if we will do something — anything, for that matter, that will make our lives better or worse — and that choice is up to us. It’s coming up on New Year’s Eve, and
there is no better time to think of setting and pursuing a good and worthy goal. Now many of us will set the traditional goals or check the box and proclaim our New Year’s resolutions, including more family time, lose weight, stop smoking, make more money, and a host of other personal goals. I would like to challenge us all a little more this year, think outside the box when it comes to goal setting and New Year’s resolutions. As a matter of fact, let’s forget the box, the box doesn’t exist anymore, let’s just max out or imagination and creativity and come up with goals of goodness, plans for success, and resolve to making the decisions that will make 2015 a wonderful year personally and professionally. Let those two questions I asked in the beginning of this column sink in again for a minute. Is there something, anything at all, that you can do or say that will make your life better or worse? Remember that “you” are the key in the question, “you” get to make the decision, “you” get to set Norton continues on Page 9

To feds, pot business smells suspicious The handling of money is a conundrum for shops By Katie Kuntz
Rocky Mountain PBS I-News The federal government is stockpiling hundreds of “suspicious activity reports” that could provide federal agents with sufficient evidence to shut down any state-legalized marijuana business. While it may appear that federal authorities have taken a wait-and-see approach to marijuana legalization in the 23 states that now allow either medical or recreational use, these reports are poised like a blade over the budding industry should federal laws be enforced. This risk of federal prosecution has led some cannabis companies to literally launder their money. “You used to be able to just smell it,” said Jennifer Waller, vice president of the Colorado Bankers Association, speaking of the cash from marijuana shops. “But now they are using Febreze a lot, putting the money in dryers, a lot of different things to try to disguise the scent because marijuana has such a distinct odor.” And that distinct odor is considered a red flag by federal authorities who require that banks file a suspicious activity report for every transaction that might be associated with illegal activity, including selling marijuana, even for state licensed businesses. “It’s because of the illegal nature of it,” Waller said. “In banking, if you are accepting the funds from a marijuana company and you are aware of it … you can be charged with money laundering yourself.” Banks fear the repercussions of holding deposits related to marijuana, still a Schedule I illegal drug under federal law. That could mean prison time for individual tellers, fines for the bank, and the bank could even lose its federal deposit insurance, meaning it could be also be closed. If a marijuana store is charged with money laundering, it could lose everything. “Even before a conviction, the feds could freeze your assets,” said Chris Myklebust, commissioner of the Colorado Division of Financial Services. “And if there is a money laundering conviction, the feds can seize the assets, too.” The federal government has already collected more than 1,100 reports that implicate different cannabis companies in financial crimes nationwide. “Just in a moment’s notice, the U.S. Justice Department could literally take down every single dispensary in Colorado, probably within about a day.” said Rob Corry, a Denver attorney and marijuana advocate. Corry has worked on several cases where federal agents have seized assets — cars, cash, bank accounts — though many of the records are sealed and it’s hard to gauge just how often this occurs. More often, banks simply shut down marijuana-related accounts. Between February and August 2014, banks filed more than 475 “Marijuana Termination” suspicious activity reports — indicating they closed hundreds of accounts because of possible criminal activity.
Cash is collected at a Strainwise marijuana store in Denver on Nov. 17, 2014. Legal marijuana businesses are a cash-heavy operation and many stores rely on armored car services like Blue Line for cash transportation and protection. Photo by Rocky Mountain PBS I-News “I’ve lost my personal bank account, my brothers have lost their personal bank accounts,” said Sally Vander Veer, operator of Medicine Man dispensary in Denver. The dispensary also lost its account in August. She says that without a bank account, all Medicine Man employees are paid in cash. “I can’t protect them. They walk out of here with a pocket full of cash and, in essence, they become another target and a potential victim of not having banking in the marijuana industry,” Vander Veer said. The dilemma has resulted in private businesses like Blue Line Protection Group that employ former military or law enforcement officers equipped with handguns, bulletproof vests, tactical training and armored trucks to transport cash and product to undisclosed locations for safekeeping. “When we started, the clients we were picking up had a manager taking (cash) in a Honda Civic or some kind of Subaru, unarmed, no vests, no tactics, no skills,” said Dominic Powelson, who works for Blue Line Protection Group. “People are gladly saying, `Yeah, just go, we will pay you some money to do it for us.’ ” State regulators in Colorado and Washington have also tried to ease access to banking. Mycklebust, the Colorado financial services commissioner, issued a charter to the first ever marijuana-focused credit union in November. The new credit union will not immediately have federal credit insurance, although it has applied. Mycklebust said the new credit union must also file suspicious activity reports. The so called “SARs” stem from the guidelines set forth
by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FinCEN, a branch of the U.S. Treasury Department. The guidelines were meant to ease access to banks. “Banks are required by law to report when they think that a business is making money from something illegal, and marijuana is still federally illegal,” said Steve Hudak, spokesman for FinCEN. “We attempted to provide guidance that would help to get cash off the streets and some of the public danger that is associated with that, so we went about as far as we could.” But the guidelines didn’t actually legalize banking for marijuana businesses — only Congress can do that. And so far, Congressional leaders have been opposed. “(FinCEN’s) guidance is dangerously misleading,” wrote U.S. Sens. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., in a letter of reprimand to the agency. “Indeed, following the guidance may expose financial institutions to civil or criminal liability.” Still, some U.S. representatives from Colorado and other states have introduced legislation to federally legalize state-approved marijuana, or at least legalize the industry’s access to banking. But those bills have not advanced. As is, state-approved marijuana businesses operate solely as a matter of federal discretion. And that could change at any time.

Kandt said. “Our hearts go out to the owners of the dog that was killed,” Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock said. “As doglovers ourselves, we know how hard it is when a family loses a pet. We assure them that we are conducting a thorough internal investigation into how this happened, and we are fully cooperating with the Thornton Police Department.” Spurlock has been in contact with the owner of the dog that was fatally injured, and the owner is supportive of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and how the investigation is being conducted by both DCSO and Thornton PD, according to the DCSO. The K-9 has been quarantined and is not in service as a police dog pending the outcome of the investigations. The DCSO will not be conducting any interviews on the matter as the Professional Standards Unit is still investigating the case.
running in a northwesterly direction wearing dark clothing when he was struck by a southbound 1998 Toyota Tacoma pickup. The Toyota struck the pedestrian in the right travel lane with its left-front quarter panel. After being struck, the pedestrian was knocked to the ground between the center of the roadway and the right travel lane. The pedestrian was struck by at least four other vehicles after being knocked to the ground, the state patrol said. The pedestrian, Richard Tababi,
33, of Fort Collins, died at the scene. Tababi’s disabled vehicle was located just north of the crash scene on the shoulder of E-470. The driver of the Toyota, a 27-year-old Parker man, was uninjured and remained on scene after striking Tababi. He is not expected to be charged in the case. Anyone with information on the incident, or anyone who thinks they may have struck something in the roadway on southbound E-470 between Jewell and Quincy should call the state patrol at 303-239-4501.

Broncos Institute offers look inside the huddle Partnership with CSU will be part of Sports Management minor By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com For students hoping to find a career in the sports management industry, a new program offered by Colorado State University may be just the ticket. CSU announced the creation of The Denver Broncos Sports Management Institute Dec. 15 — a program that will
allow students to work closely with Colorado’s favorite professional sports franchise and learn from professionals in the field. The program, partnering the Broncos with the university, will debut this spring by offering three courses to select CSU undergraduate students. The classes will count toward a newly developed minor in sports management at Colorado State, pending faculty council approval. “We are excited and proud to partner with a world-class university like Colorado State to create the Denver Broncos Sports Management Institute,” Broncos President and CEO Joe Ellis said in a news release. “This program will allow us to expand our involvement with higher education in our
home state and help mentor local students interested in pursuing a career in sports.” Students will take part in hands-on experiences and opportunities with the Broncos. The program will include internships with the team, guest lectures from management and case studies developed in coordination with the team. “As a former student athlete, I have been hoping for something like this for a long time. There’s already a tremendous amount of excitement for the program,” professor Albert Bimper said. “It’s an opportunity for our students to learn from people in a nationally and internationally recognized Institute continues on Page 20

The public is invited to a reception from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Jan. 16 in the downtown Littleton gallery. The show coincides with the comedy “The Clean House” by Sarah Ruhl, which will be playing upstairs in the theater. It’s about a colorful Brazilian maid, who would rather be a comic. The painters involved are Delores Peterson, Mary (Molly) Squibb, Maryann Leake and Saundra Lane Galloway. Peterson, who lives in Roxborough, has been a Colorado resident since 1959 and has been an active oil painter for more than 45 years, “creating in the realist tradition.” She works outdoors, gathering material in the form of oil and watercolor sketches from many areas in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Great Britain. She also takes photographs to capture details — which may or may not be included in the final painting, when it is finished later in her studio. “Inspired by workshops taught by contemporary impressionists, she is able to work en plein air, while ignoring onlookers and weather conditions.” Currently, she is concentrating on Southwestern subject matter and Western mountain landscapes, with occasional wildlife for variety. Squibb writes that she “looks for beauty in unusual places. That means being curious about `the underside of life.’ Yes, I paint traditional landscape, but I also love a tangle of leaves on a trail or colors in old oil cans by a shed. … “Scouting for painting ideas, I am often inspired by what is old and used, but wears
Thrillist.com, the Internet commentator on all things food-related, has chosen RiNo, Denver’s Riverfront North neighborhood, as one of the 18 Best Food Neighborhoods in America. While RiNo as a destination dining ‘hood is fairly new and continually growing, its foodie scene lacks historical reference to call upon, unlike other neighborhoods in New Orleans, Boston, Charleston, Chicago and San Francisco, which are also on the list. Here’s what Thrillist said about RiNo, “Once upon a time, this was a neighborhood Denverites would go to if they wanted to have a nice night out ... and then get mugged afterwards. Now? It’s practically swarming with hot restaurants and breweries. Part of that is due to The Source, an enormous 20,000-squarefoot artisan food market that houses one of Denver’s best restaurants (Acorn), coffee roasters (Boxcar), breweries (Crooked Stave) and plenty more. “Four other exemplary craft breweries have taprooms in the neighborhood as well, including the Utah-transplant Epic Brewing, which knows (its) way around a sour. For food, Work & Class serves up shared plates of delicious Latin/American food, Cart-Driver is the tiny, high-quality pizza joint every neighborhood deserves, and Los Chingones is the Mexican food outpost of one of Denver’s finest restaurateurs. And for something you likely won’t find in any other city, Infinite Monkey Theorem cans (its) own wine and has an expansive space to drink it in.” See the other 17 picks at www.thrillist.com/ eat/nation/18-best-food-neighborhoods-inamerica-flushing-west-loop-the-mission.

She worked in journalism and marketing communication until 2005, when she turned her attention fully to art. She has studied at the Art Students Leagues in New York and Denver, including extensive studies with master artist and teacher Kevin Weckbach. Leake, also a Roxborough resident, writes that she is “still painting Koi. I have been obsessing about them ever since I lived in California. … Descanso Gardens in La Canada has a beautiful tea house where the koi reside under the bridge and trees far above shade them. “I used to be a florist.” Still lifes always contain flowers.

IF YOU GO “The Art of Color” will be in the Stanton Gallery at Town Hall Arts Center, 2450 W. Main Street in downtown Littleton, from Jan. 6 to Feb. 10. A reception is planned from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Jan. 16. Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and during performances of “The Clean House.” 303-794-2787, townhallartscenter.org. pressionism, owned an art exhibit company, is gallery manager for the Roxborough Arts Gallery, illustrated children’s books, designed sets for Valor Christian High School and assisted with art exhibits for her church — and been active in the Colorado Watercolor Society. Galloway is exhibiting mixed media pieces that are the result “of many years of experimentation. … Often, I will have several media in one painting: acrylic, paper, oil and sometimes found objects or paper casts made from my own molds. `Aspen Lights and Shadows’ was my breakout piece; meaning the first of its kind, with the abstract background and paper stream moving through and the subject matter painted a little more realistically ….” She continues that she has loved trees since childhood and walked in many forests “and actually stood and looked for long minutes trying to understand just what they were about. … I admire their strength and stamina through harsh winters and weather events ….”
Thrillist also lauded seven old-school steakhouses in Colorado. I still get misty-eyed over Emil-Lene’s Sirloin House in Aurora, which closed last spring, but this is an admirable list of steakhouses that get less mention than Elway’s, Mortons, Del Frisco’s, Shanahan’s, et al: 1. The Broker Restaurant, 821 17th St. (Remember the shrimp bowl?) 2. Mickey’s Top Sirloin, 6950 Broadway 3. The Buckhorn Exchange, 1000 Osage St., where what you’re eating glares down at you in its taxidermy form. 4. The Summit Steakhouse, 2700 S. Havana St., Aurora. We used to live within walking distance of this place where American Furniture Warehouse honcho Jake Jabs often bellied up and belted out songs at the piano bar. 5. Columbine Steak House & Lounge, 300 Federal Blvd. 6. Charco Broiler, 1716 E. Mulberry St., Fort Collins. 7. Bastien’s Restaurant, 3503 E. Colfax Ave., home of the sugar steak.
Panzano dish honored
With all the dinners and dining going on at New York City’s revered James Beard House this year, Panzano Chef Elise Wiggins’ braised lamb croquette was one of the 15 favorite dishes of the year, as noted on The Beard House official blog. Wiggins, along with other chick chefs, whipped up the winning dish during the Denver Women Chefs Rules Beard House dinner in September. And although the fave dish is not currently on the Panzano menu, the similar crochetta di cinghiale is. The crochetta is a wild boar croquette over marbled potatoes, carrots, beets, turnips and capers sauteed with salsa verde and demi glaze.

Grammy-nominated Cash to play at PACE Album was meant to paint regional portrait By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Rosanne Cash, who will perform at the PACE Center in Parker on Jan. 9, has been nominated for a Grammy in the Best Americana Album category for her “The River and the Thread.” Her track “A Feather’s Not a Bird” is nominated for Best American Roots Performance and Best American Roots Song. It was co-written with her producer/arranger/guitarist John Leventhal. (Grammy awards will be announced on Feb. 8.) The new concept album includes 11 original songs inspired by recent trips to the south from her New York City home, accompanied by Leventhal, who is her husband. She set out to trace her heritage. She visited Arkansas, where her father, Johnny Cash, was raised; Texas, home of her mother, Vivian Liberto; and Virginia, where her stepmother, June Carter, was raised.

“Who owns it? How do I show that I created it? What if someone takes credit for my work? What if someone does something that looks like/sounds like my work?” Artists of all genres are invited to three free classes at Curtis Arts and Humanities Center addressing intellectual property issues. They will be taught by Pam Roth O’Mara, a Centennial resident with multiple skills in legal matters, writing, theater and more. Class times vary, but they will all be held at the Curtis Arts and Humanities Center, 2349 E. Orchard Road, Greenwood Village. • On Jan. 6 at 5:30 p.m., O’Mara will discuss “Intellectual Property Basics for Artists, Authors, Designers, Musicians, Inventors, Innovators, Photographers and Arts Management.” This session will introduce a range of intellectual property, or IP, protection methods, including copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret. • On Jan. 15 at 3:30 p.m., the class will cover “Managing the Intellectual Assets in Your Life: Intellectual Property Due Diligence for Estate Planning and Representation, Investing and Personal Property Management.” Untapped intellectual assets and undervalued intellectual property are detrimental to personal estates, small businesses and corporations. This session guides you through issues to consider in IP audits. • On Feb. 6 at 3:30 p.m., the class topic will be “What the Contract really says: Know What You’re Getting Into.” Have you ever signed a contract to find you’ve unintentionally agreed to something? Do you understand everything you see? “Right brain/left brain — I can go back and forth,” O’Mara said. Her bio lists numerous skills: author, artist, coach, director, instructor, performer, producer, publicist, publisher. She attended law school at night while work-
ing as a technical writer in the computer industry, gaining her knowledge about intellectual-property law. But, she did not choose to go into practice, since she saw another path ahead that included arts, which were part of her life. She recalls her first Broadway show, a birthday celebration, in 1961. She started a kids’ theater when 15 or 16 and learned improv skills when interning at a regional theater on Long Island. She lived in New England for 30 years and moved to Colorado almost eight years ago with her brother, sisterin-law and father. And she O’Mara married at that point as well. She prepared 20-minute improv routines and wants to use the skill to do storytelling. She has performed at Bovine Theater and Denver Puppet Theater. O’Mara has taught improv skills at Arapahoe Community College and will have a class starting at ACC in February for six weeks. She is presently teaching computer technology in the paralegal program and will be teaching about intellectual properties in fall 2015. In summer, she has worked and volunteered at South Platte Park, where she introduced her “Thumb Print Plays” to kids and adults. One writes observations from a nature walk, for example, in a spiral from the outside in, forming a thumbprint-shaped poem/play. She started writing these for herself first and has published a little book of clever observations, called “Nature Nurture.” Kids enjoy writing these and acting them out. Another project in the works is a book about the South Platte River flood of 1965, which caused great damage — and was the starter for developing the wonderful South Platte Park. She will devote profits to the park, hopeful that children who might not otherwise have the chance can come to visit … For the year ahead, it will be Greenwood Village classes, ACC classes, completion of the book and time with her husband and a photogenic miniature long-haired dachshund.

Church women stage benefit fashion show Jan. 16 event will be held at Littleton venue By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com “Church Women United is a 72-yearold movement of Christian women working toward peace and justice in the world, promoting racial equality and an end to trafficking,” according to local activist Pat Kenning. For 25 of those years, the local Southeast Suburban Unit has held a benefit fashion show in support of two designated charities. In the 1960s, Kenning writes, “the South Suburban Unit helped start Inter-Faith Task Force, now Inter-Faith Community Services. The Jeffco Unit started the Jeffco Action Center and the Aurora Unit started Aurora Interfaith Services — all are expanded and flourishing today.” The 2014 recipients will be the Denver Women’s Correctional Facility ministry and Warren Village, a longtime ministry of Warren Avenue Methodist Church, Denver. It helps families by providing housing, counseling, childcare, clothing and more. Each will receive $200. On Jan. 16, the CWU will hold its Silver Anniversary Fashion Show at Littleton United Methodist Church, 5894 S. Datura St., Littleton, with registration beginning at 11:30 a.m.
Members served lunch to guests at the 2014 Church Women United Fashion Show.

Broadway, Englewood. The shop will bring additional clothing and accessories to sell at bargain prices. Kenning said that CWU has three celebrations a year worldwide — in hundreds of units. These are: World Day of Prayer, about the first Friday in March, which began during the Civil War; May Friendship Day, first
Friday in May, started in the 1940s; and World Community Day, first Friday in November, begun after World War II. Services are in area churches. There are no dues in this organization and all are welcome to join. An annual unit meeting is usually held in January.

Wiggins’ winning way: “The dish was all about balance: the rustic comfort of braised lamb shank tucked within in a refined tuile, the crunchy package collapsing around the tender slow-cooked meat.” Wiggins told Thrillist all credit goes to a local producer: `The lamb that I love to use is from Triple M Bar Ranch (just east of Pueblo). The farmers and lamb ranchers work together so there’s no food waste. When all the best melons are picked, they bring in the lambs to eat up whatever is left over. Just like the old saying, you are what you eat, and that diet makes these lambs the most delicious in the world.” See the rest of the Beard House picks at www.jamesbeard.org/blog/our-favoritedishes-2014.

The Colorado Repertory Jazz Band will perform on Jan. 23 at Lone Tree Arts Center. Courtesy photo
Jazz group chooses own favorites at Lone Tree CJRO continues to gain fame as premier ensemble By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com With sell-out audiences for its past three concerts, the Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra heads into 2015 with “CJRO Favorites,” scheduled for Jan. 23. (This is a change in title from a previously announced Woody Herman one.) At the close of the holiday concert, artistic director Steve Weist announced that the next offering would consist of favorite arrangements chosen by
members of the band. In a Dec. 13 note, director Art Bouton, a Lone Tree resident who founded the popular band two years ago, wrote that the CJRO would “dig deep into the word `repertory’ for its next concert.” He continued to say that the concert “will feature works from the libraries of Count Basie, Maynard Ferguson, Buddy Rich and Thad Jones. Featured tunes will include `Stompin’ at the Savoy,’ `Besame Mucho’ and `Blues in Hoss’ Flat,’ among many other exciting classics.” The concert will conclude with the Bill Reddie arrangement of “West Side Story,” written to close each concert of the Buddy Rich big band. Bouton describes it as “seldom heard, crowd-pleasing, but very chal-
lenging work, which can only be performed by the best of the best,” meaning the talented Colorado musicians who make up the CJRO. Other numbers on a list from Lone Tree Arts Center include: “Don’t Get Sassy” by Thad Jones; “Shiny Stockings,” composed by Frank Foster, adapted for Ella Fitzgerald; “Greasy Sack Blues” composed by Don Rader … Vocalist Heidi Schmidt will perform with the band. In this third season, with the addition of Grammy-nominated jazz artist and educator Weist to the band as artistic director, Bouton has formed Colorado Jazz Inc., a nonprofit corporation to help bring CJRO to national prominence.

faculty at the University of Denver’s Lamont School of Music, where Bouton and several other orchestra members teach.) “Arts Center director Lisa Rigsby Peterson took a chance on the idea of a resident big band and we are forever grateful for her courage and vision,” Bouton said. “This band has been a dream come true for me.”
Review: `The Hobbit’ wraps with a Middle-earth melee By Jake Coyle Associated Press With a sum total of 1,032 minutes, Peter Jackson’s six J.R.R. Tolkien films have earned more than $5 billion worldwide. They have made New Zealand synonymous with Middle-earth. And they have slaughtered enough orcs to constitute genocide. The sheer size of Jackson’s accomplishment — a majestic, fully realized fantasy world, from its lush landscapes down to its hairy feet — is enough to make Cecil B. DeMille blush. Across craggy mountaintops and through enchanted forests, he has set his hobbits, elves and wizards scampering to and fro, always under the threat of greed, ego and selfishness. More than
anything, he has taken the stuff of fantasy seriously and rendered Tolkien’s splendid creation with love. Sadly, all of that was true after Jackson’s “Lord of the Rings’’ trilogy. The subsequent “Hobbit’’ trio, which is now finally sputtering to an end with “The Battle of the Five Armies,’’ will inevitably go down as an unneeded, unloved gratuity, a trilogy, like the second “Star Wars’’ run, to write off as overkill. The magic, fleeting to start with, is mostly gone. “The Hobbit’’ might have been a nice little prequel add-on to “The Lord of the Rings,’’ but by dividing it into three movies, Jackson and company have drained the book’s dramatic momentum. The first, “An Unexpected Journey,’’ remains in one’s memory only for its

clown-car introduction of the 13 dwarfs in an interminable dinner scene I fear is just now approaching dessert. “The Desolation of Smaug,’’ for me the most successfully rollicking of these three, brought in (finally) another woman (Evangeline Lilly’s elf Tauriel) and Benedict Cumberbatch’s glorious dragon. What most distinguishes “The Battle of the Five Armies’’ is its relative torpor. After five films of relentless forward motion, its characters always in perpetual flight, Jackson’s “Hobbit’’ has, as if out of gas, plopped down at the Lonely Mountain. Picking up with Smaug’s fiery escape, “Five Armies’’ caps “The Hobbit’’ with a Middle-earth melee as all forces gather around Erebor. The riches inside the mountain draw dwarfs (led by Richard Armitage’s king Thorin), elves (ruled by Lee Pace’s wonderfully snobbish Thran-duil), a smattering of humans (most notably Luke Evans’s Bard) and, of course, huge armies of hulking orcs. All the commotion doesn’t leave much room for Martin Freeman’s Bilbo Baggins. The funny, natural Freeman is one of the best things to hit Jackson’s overly earnest epic (it’s an hour into “Five Armies’’ before the first chuckle), but he has often been crowded out by the avalanche of characters and CGI effects. Perhaps — and I know this could strike Jackson as incredulous — a
MPAA DEFINITION OF PG-13: Parents strongly cautioned. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13. battle scene need not be an hour long? The action, too, comes in Jackson’s preferred 48 frames-per-second (theater options will vary; and the film is also in 3-D), which, in the mission of greater clarity, yields a heightened artificiality. Some believe this high-frame-rate is the future (James Cameron is a fan), but for now, it’s the greatest evidence that some 15 years down a Hobbit hole — both pleasingly and frustratingly far from reality — have marred Jackson’s vision. Effects-only shots look fine, but live-action appears like a soap opera. But maybe it’s time to admire Jackson for his obsessions. He has spent a very long time in Middle-earth and his affection for it hasn’t, for even 1/48th of a moment, ever been in doubt. It is his precious. “The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies,’’ a Warner Bros. release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for “extended sequences of intense fantasy action violence and frightening images.’’ Running time: 144 minutes. Two stars out of four.

Area coaches agree: Good hockey goalies can steal wins By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com
e
Hockey goalies, baseball pitchers and quarterbacks have a lot in common They are vital to the success of a team. “Goaltending is like pitching in high school, college and professional hockey,” said Cherry Creek hockey coach Jeff Mielnicki. “If a goaltender shuts the other team down your chance of success improves.” Heritage coach Jeremy Simms claims it is not unusual to have goalies steal games in Colorado prep hockey. “A good goalie can make an average montteam competitive and a competitive team veralgreat,” said Simms. “I have seen a number of games where the goalie is the only eter-reason a team has won.” Mountain Vista coach Lev Cohen ident agreed. r her “Goalies are a major part of a team’s “Thissuccess,” he said. “Having a strong goalme.” ie gives the forwards confidence to play aggressive offensively and take chances. Goalies are similar to quarterbacks in football in that they can steal a game for you. “The great part of hockey, though, is having a strong defensive core and forwards that are committed to playing defense, which also helps with making goalies successful.” Andrew Nash, an Arapahoe High School senior, has been a four-year goalie for the Heritage co-op team and doesn’t mind being bombarded by shots during practice or having players celebrate when they score. er “They have to celebrate like that ben cause they don’t score very much,” Nash lar- said. “Goalie is a fun position. I like getme ting hit with a lot of things. I’ve been a re goalie for eight years. I tried it once and I it’s loved it.

It’s all a mental game, focus and preparation.” Volmert knows he is competing for one of the most important positions on the team. “The goalie is the most important part of the game in my opinion,” he said. “If you have a bad goalie and you have a good team, one bad shot can go in and ruin the team for the rest of the season. The goalie needs to be good. The defenseman around help and then will rely on the goalie.” Schoech feels a good netminder can be an equalizer.
“If the team is having a bad game and you are a good goalie, you can change the game,” he said. “If you face 50 shots in a 1-0 game, you can give your team confidence that we can win the game.” Brady Mielnicki is a senior and returning starter at Cherry Creek, which also has goalies Austen Strauss and Scout Stalcup on its roster “Great goaltending is a key asset to a successful team,” said Brady Mielnicki. “A goaltender’s performance defines the outcome of a game. The role I fill is as important as each and every one of my teammates. “A team builds off their goalie; a big save can lead to a teammate scoring a game-winning goal. It is easy to take great goaltending for granted, but it is hard to replace a great goalie.”

Football in his blood Former college star, pro player turned his competitiveness into successful real estate career By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Bobby Burnett is the owner of Keller Williams Realty DTC, but it’s hard to tell that walking into his office. Football memorabilia is all over the walls and shelves. He was wearing a Keller Williams shirt and his assistant donned a Denver Broncos jersey on a recent visit to his office. Burnett, who lives in Castle Rock, was a running back at Arkansas and scored the winning touchdown in the 1965 Cotton Bowl win over Nebraska which earned the Razorbacks the Football Writers Association of America and Helms Athletic Foundation national championship. Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and former college and NFL coach Jimmie Johnson were also on that Arkansas team. Burnett was the 1966 American Football League Rookie of the Year with the Buffalo Bills, but a knee injury hampered the remainder of his pro football career. He played three games for the Denver Broncos before retiring in 1969. “Real estate seemed like a natural thing to do when I stopped playing,” said Burnett. “I was keeping my options open before I went into the real estate business. I wanted to see if I could really do this, make any money. I was thinking about going into coaching. “The whole idea of real estate is the people who are the most successful are the most consistent. That’s the same thing as with a football team. The more consistent you are the more success you will have. It’s the same thing in real estate. The consistent agents that can keep their business consistent are going to do a lot better.” He had offers to continuing his pro football career but declined. “Back then in the offseason most of the guys had to work,” he explained. “I was working for six months and made more money in those six months than I had the previous three or four years playing ball. I said, `Hum, this is working pretty good so I think I’ll do this.’ “I had the Broncos, Pittsburgh Steelers, Chiefs, San Diego Chargers and several teams that I was talking with. I just said, `No, I’m just going to retire.’ ” Burnett, 71, had two grandsons play at Castle View, and he was a volunteer coach at Columbine and Arapahoe for a few years. He also coached his sons and grandsons in youth football. Colorado high school football doesn’t match up with southern prep football, Burnett said. “I love high school football,” said Bur-
nett, who played high school football in Smackover, Ark. “I love going to watch it. It’s (Colorado prep football) progressed but not appreciably. I don’t know how to describe it. Growing up in Arkansas, high school football down there is a religion almost. All the kids play it. “There are a lot of good football players here in the state. I don’t understand why more of them don’t go to Colorado or Colorado State. If some of our high school teams would go down and play in Texas and places like that, they would get killed. There are a lot of good football players in Colorado, but just not as many.” Burnett remembers the popularity of high school football in Arkansas. “When I played there was only a population sign when you came into town,” he said. “There was this little sign that said population 1,340 people. They sold 2,000 season tickets. They came from these little towns all around there.” Burnett recently went to a recruiting night at Valor Christian with his grandson, Mason Alldredge, who was a linebacker at Castle View last season. It was nothing like when he was pondering college offers. “My dad (Clell) was a coach,” he said. “He was personal friends with Alabama’s Bear Bryant, Charlie McClendon at LSU and Darrell Royal at Texas. I was recruited by those schools. Growing up in Arkansas, I wanted to be a Razorback. The Razorbacks came in on me really late. As soon as they offered me a scholarship, I took it.” As a former running back, Burnett offered encouragement to the Broncos’ effort to balance their offensive attack. “They needed more running,” said Burnett. “Honestly over the last few years their running back corps hasn’t been very good. It was still questionable this year. They have some kids right now that can flat run. That’s what they have needed. They need kids that can turn nothing into four yard gains. Before maybe nothing was nothing or a one-yard gain.” Bronco backs C.J. Anderson, Juwan Thompson and Jeremy Stewart have impressed Burnett. “Now these kids make four or five yards a whack no matter what, and they know how to run,” he said. “They are instinctive runners. This young corps of running backs they have now is the best corps they have had in a long time. “You are not going to win the Super Bowl by Peyton Manning throwing 50 or 60 times. You might look good getting there, but you’re not going to win. What they are doing is on purpose to build and they have been able to win anyway. They have forced the issue. They have moved the lineman all over. The last three or four weeks have almost been like training camp. But they have been winning anyway. If they hadn’t been winning, they would have changed everything else. Plus it is going to save Manning.”

Castle Rock beer, wine competition brings together amateurs By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com The bottles line the table, each one from a brewer working in a home or garage or basement. Divided by color and style, the 25 beers and five wines at the 2014 Castle Rock Homebrew Competition were crafted by about 15 amateur brewers. There’s a prize for the winner, a gold medal. But the real reward is being able to share their work with others. “Most homebrew competitions are judged by certified judges. So they take notes on aroma, flavor, and appearance, and judge it according to style,” said Eric Seufert, owner of Castle Rock Homebrew Supply, where the competition was held Dec.19. “They’re actually quite boring events. It’s usually just a bunch of people standing around taking notes. This is a more social, fun event that probably better suits the average brewer or wine maker. It’s fun.” Seufert opened Castle Rock Homebrew Supply in January 2013. This is the second year he is hosting the Christmas competition — something he hopes will bring together the local homebrew community and give brewers a chance to share and compare with other amateurs and enthusiasts. “Most of these beers here and the wine are from people who have started in the last two years since we’ve opened. People get really good at it quick,” said Seufert.”I probably know half of the people’s names in here. There’s actually a pretty big homebrew community in Castle Rock.” He said most people can learn to brew their own beer in a few hours. Beers take around four weeks to make if you’re bottling them. Wine is a little longer, four to six weeks, and according to Seufert, some of them could benefit from a year sitting around. “The crowd here, we like to make every-
Bottles for the Castle Rock Homebrew Competition are given plain labels, numbered and arranged by color and style for tasting.

Photos by Mike DiFerdinando thing. We routinely offer brewing, wine and cheese-making beginner classes. We do advanced brewing classes, and once a year during the grape harvest we do some winemaking,” Seufert said. The beginner beer-making class costs $30. “Between your ingredients and your equipment you can usually get out of here for about $200 for wine or beer, to make five or six gallons,” Seufert said.
Todd Hiltz began brewing a year ago when his son bought him a homebrew kit for Christmas. “Since then, I’ve just went kind of crazy with brewing,” Hiltz said. “The first was a stout like a Guinness and we started doing it tighter and just went from there.” Hiltz submitted five of his own brews for the competition — a wheat beer, an Oktoberfest, a porter, a stout and a pumpkin ale. “When you come here, the guys give

you a lot of advice and help you out with the kits. It’s you and the simple ingredients, you know — your water, your hops, your malts. It’s fun,” Hiltz said. “It’s a good distraction from the normal week and business you’ve got going on.”

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) A friend offers you an exciting opportunity for this New Year. Although your positive aspects are strong in most respects, caution is advised. Investigate before you invest. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) You can make this New Year a roaring success. Start by readjusting your goals to reflect the changes in the economy. Your den-mate offers both wise and loving support. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) The New Year brings new opportunities for change. But you need to be ready to move from the comfortable status quo to the challenging unknown. It’s up to you. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Your most important New Year’s resolution should be to work out problems with a family member in order to avoid continuing misunderstandings.

PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) This New Year brings news about a change you’ve been anticipating. You might have a problem persuading a loved one about your new plans, but he or she will soon go along with them. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a gift for making people feel safe and protected.

organization and to be hands on and learn about the business of sports.” Foundations of Sports Management and Inclusive Sport Organizations will be taught by Bimper, the senior associate athletic director and assistant professor of Ethnic Studies. Bimper was an all-Mountain West offensive lineman at CSU before playing one season with the Indianapolis Colts, where he was a backup center for Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning. “How do you run an event? What does that look like? What is it like to be responsible for a facility during the course of a season? It’s an opportunity for students to really see things first hand. The internships are a big component of the program,” Bimper said. The institute builds on an existing relationship between the Broncos and Colorado State that has included work on a variety of topics, including turf management, business, marketing and public relations courses and activities as well as numerous CSU student internships with the Broncos. The program will initially be housed in the Department of Management within the College of Business, but the academic framework involves four of CSU’s eight colleges. The program will accept 20 students per semester and all are welcome to apply. “We will be getting our feet wet with a few classes this spring and then really kick things into full gear in the fall,” Bimper said. The classes being offered for the spring 2015 semester include: Foundations of Sport Management, Inclusive Sport Organizations and Sports Marketing. “The Denver Broncos are rightly considered one of the finest-run franchises in all of professional sports, so the opportunity to have our students work closely with such a quality organization as part of their learning experience is an amazing opportunity,” CSU President Tony Frank said in a news release. “Combining the talents and experiences of our faculty and students with a top-notch organization like the Denver Broncos makes this a unique program, and one we’re proud to be part of at Colorado State.”
