Teamwork was a popular theme during many of the exercises at the boot camp. In this drill, participants rolled pumpkins between each other’s legs in a coordinated effort of dexterity and timing.

About 50 people of all ages took part in the Pumpkin Boot Camp at Cornerstone Park in Littleton the morning of Oct. 24. It was the ninth edition of the event, which was hosted by Camp MissFits — a women’s fitness studio in Littleton — and had a “Wild West” theme this year. Participants, many in Halloween costumes, ran with pumpkins, used them for push-ups and a variety of other exercises, some of which involved teamwork. “It’s something everyone can do,” said Robyn Whelan, of Littleton, who took part for a second straight year. Proceeds from the event, which cost $25 for adults and $12 for children, went to the USANA True Health Foundation. The group states its mission as providing “the most critical human necessities — nutrition, clothing, shelter, medical assistance, and health education — to those who are suffering or in need.”

Three challengers for Littleton City Council — Doug Clark, Carol Brzeczek and Brenda Stokes — last week pounced on rumors that a Walmart is slated to be built on the Ensor property, 111 acres on the southwest corner of Mineral Avenue and Santa Fe Drive.

Problem is, the plan is in the early speculation stage, and may or may not come to fruition.

“There are some facts that get dropped when people are trying to create fear,” Councilmember Debbie Brinkman said during a

HELLO

...

My Name Is

A glimpse of the people in our community

JEREMIAH OLSON Student, history buff with eye on tech career My background I’m 15, and I was born in Littleton. I go to Heritage High School, Class of 2018. I have one brother and one sister, both younger. My favorite subject is social studies, because I love learning about the past. I don’t have a job.

My hobbies and interests I like technology and reading military books, fiction and nonfiction. I like to watch football, and I’m a Broncos fan.

What I hope my future holds I would want to work at Google as a software engineer. They’re getting really up there, and they’re going to beat Microsoft pretty soon. Plus they have great perks. I could provide for my family really easily. I hope to have a family, a wife and four kids. I would want to live in California if I worked for Google. Otherwise, I would want to stay here in Littleton. It’s a very safe and quiet neighborhood, and I love downtown Littleton.

Especially during Christmastime, looking at the lights and everything. It’s beautiful.

What I want people to know about me I’m very nice and kind, and I help out others.

And that I love technology.

Dementia expert says care takes a village Problem can’t be fixed, so management is goal

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Laura Wayman has a story to tell about Jack and Peggy.

Jack had dementia, and Peggy was bound and determined to take care of her husband herself. Jack wandered sometimes, and one evening he wandered to his neighbor’s to say that Peggy must be very tired, because she was sleeping on the floor.

By the time the neighbor realized Peggy had actually suffered a massive heart attack, it was too late.

“She was gone,” said Wayman. “And Peggy was my mother.”

After that, Wayman dedicated her life to helping people like Peggy take care of people like Jack. Today the gerontologist is known as the “Dementia Whisperer” who wrote the book “A Loving Approach to Dementia Care.” She travels the country to help people understand the experiences of both the caretaker and the patient, and stopped at Malley Senior Recreation Center in Englewood on Oct. 20 as part of that journey.

Stories like Jack and Peggy’s are all too common, she says. More than 65 percent of spouses get sick and die before the patient.

“We forget to pay attention to that caregiver’s needs,” she said. “You must ask for help. You must build your village to care for someone with dementia.”

The key to understanding how to cope with a dementia patient is to understand the underlying disease. Wayman explains that “dementia” is really just an umbrella term for a list of symptoms that can be caused by a number of conditions, including Parkinson’s, stroke and Alzheimer’s, which is the most common.

Regardless of the cause, the brain is literally eroding. Wayman likens dementia to a rat randomly stealing pieces of cheese, and where the holes are correlates to what symptoms appear. In Alzheimer’s, the first hole usually — but

And because there are no pain receptors in the brain, the patient feels normal, which leads to one of the hardest things in the situation — resistance to care is actually a symptom of the disease. They don’t feel sick, so they think they don’t need help.

“They don’t know what they don’t know,” she said.

Feelings and emotions stay intact, but patients lose the ability to process them or express them appropriately. Wayman

likens it to when a baby is first born: The child can only cry to express negative feelings until growing up and learning new ways.

“Someone with dementia is unlearning,” she said.

And just like you wouldn’t expect a screaming newborn to answer a question about whether she’s hungry, you shouldn’t expect a helpful answer from a dementia patient, either.

“What we are asking her to do is think, and her thinker’s broken,” said Wayman.

“Stop doing it. Talk less and do more. …

It’s OK to think for them. It’s already broken. You can’t fix it. You can just manage it.”

And since their world has been reduced to feeling and reacting, that’s what matters most.

“Act like it’s the most normal thing in the world, because they don’t know what’s normal anymore,” she said. “It’s all about how you make them feel with your actions. Don’t ask questions or give options, because they can’t process them.

If they’re angry, agree. Let them be angry.

Just be with them.”

Park meeting suggests public contentment City still taking ideas for improvement at website

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com If attendance is any indication, Littleton residents are pretty satisfied with their parks, recreation opportunities and trails.

Only a half dozen people attended a meeting at Buck Recreation Center on Oct. 22 that was intended to gather input for a master plan that the city is working on in conjunction with South Suburban Parks and

big box stores.” Another mailer claims the city is paying Walmart $5 million to build there.

However, City Manager Michael Penny says the Ensor family still owns the property, though they’ve been trying to sell it for years for about $25 million, and no application has been brought to the city for any type of project.

“So we have no idea, ultimately, what will be built or if anyone will buy it,” he said.

Brinkman, who is being challenged

by Brzeczek, represents the district in which Ensor lies. She confirmed there is a developer interested in the property who has been in talks with Walmart and Sam’s Club.

“Whether it happens or not, that is a discussion that’s going on. That is true,” she said. “That we are financing any of it is completely untrue.”

A zoning overlay approved on Ensor in 1983 allows for roughly 774 dwellings and 1 million square feet of retail and office space, which leaves plenty of room for a Walmart or any other big-box store. So that means it’s potentially true, as one mailer claimed, that voters will not have a say on anything

Recreation.

The people who did attend were mostly satisfied, but most of them seemed to have a pet peeve that brought them out. Larry Borger, for example, was there to continue advocating for swimming pools, which began when plans were announced to close the pool at Arapahoe Community College. The pool did in fact close over the summer, leaving Silver Sneakers and many competitive groups without a home.

Borger took the meeting as an opportunity to suggest covering some of the district’s outdoor pools, rendering them usable in the winter.

“If South Suburban were to have suffi-

that goes on that property, let alone Walmart.

If a developer comes up with a plan that fits into that existing overlay, it can be built with no public process, similar to the project that city staff recently approved for the old sheriff’s building at Littleton Boulevard and Bemis Street. (Opponents of that project have launched a legal battle in an effort to stop it.)

As to taxpayers subsidizing a Walmart, Ensor does lie in an urbanrenewal plan area. That means the developer of the entire 111 acres — not any particular store — could apply to the city’s urban-renewal authority to receive funds to help build public infrastructure necessary to get a project off the ground — things like streets and sidewalks that taxes normally pay for anyway. Penny estimates there will be at least $17 million of such improvements necessary at Ensor, and maybe up to $20 million.

It’s not, however, a donation. The authority will sell bonds to fund the infrastructure projects, which have to be repaid within 25 years. Assuming all goes well, it will use its share of the increase in property and sales taxes that the project generates to pay off the bonds.

The rumors had some people wondering whether eminent domain would be used to get a Walmart built.

But council would be violating its own

like to see improved.

There are two more public meetings planned, both on Oct. 28. Those who would like to specifically discuss golf and tennis can do so at 4 p.m. at the Littleton Golf and Tennis Center, the “bubble” at 5800 S. Federal Blvd. A general-interest meeting will be held at Carson Nature Center, 3000 W. Carson Drive, at 6 p.m.

cient pool time and space available, it could rent it to groups in the same way it currently rents space to groups in its ice rinks and tennis bubble,” he said.

Pat Dall attended in her role as a Depot Art Gallery artist. The gallery is tucked in west of the Buck Center and east of the Littleton Community Trail. The trail was originally supposed to abut the gallery, but a little piece of land with ownership issues came between them.

“I would like a bridge so people could stop by and enjoy our patio and get their dogs a drink of water,” she said.

Others mentioned mountain-bike trails and east-west connectivity as things they’d

resolution, passed early last year, if it allowed its use in an urban-renewal area. Additionally, only governments can use eminent domain, and only for the public good.

In any case, it’s not necessary, because the Ensor family wants to sell, they’re not being forced to sell.

“Eminent domain and condemnation are big scary words, and they get to throw them around when we’re talking about urban renewal,” said Brinkman. “It’s a financial mechanism for development to do public infrastructure. And 99 percent of it is government blight. We are smart enough to know that a $36 million project (Breckenridge Brewery, also in the plan area) is not blighted. It’s streets, sidewalks, government stuff. It’s a tax incentive to make those repairs.”

Andrea Brown, competing with Clark and Councilmember Peggy Cole for one of the two at-large seats, agreed with Brinkman.

“This sounds like a lot of scare tactics to me,” she said.

“I agree, urban renewal is scary,” Brzeczek responded.

Brown got in the last words of the evening, emphasizing she is not affiliated with any of the activist groups in town, including the Sunshine Boys.

“They all have some good points, but they’re so angry,” she said. “I would like to serve the citizens as a citizen, not as a member of a group.”

Candidates calm seniors’ tensions Wolhurst residents feared eviction

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com Some residents of the Wolhurst mobile-home community for seniors were so concerned the city was going to kick them out of their homes that they called their own candidate forum, inviting the two running to represent their district and the three at-large candidates to visit them on Oct. 21.

“Cut to the chase,” said resident Robert Isaacs. “Tell us where Wolhurst falls in all of this. … Because it looks to me like we’re prime pickings.”

However, their fears were based on rumors and old information about the south-

ern portion of the Santa Fe corridor urban-renewal plan area. At the request of the property owner, Littleton City Council removed Wolhurst, on the northwest side of the C-470/Santa Fe Drive intersection, from the plan before approving it last November.

“You guys are safe,” said Councilmember Debbie Brinkman, who represents them.

All five candidates agreed that Wolhurst itself is safe from eminent domain, especially since voters approved a measure last March that prohibits council from using it in any new plan area.

“My dad lived in a number of mobile-home communities, and this is a beautiful one,” said Doug Clark, running for one of two at-large seats. “It fills a niche, and it needs to be protected.”

Valor unveils $34 million arts venue Facility could be available for community use in 2016

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Valor Christian has opened the doors on a 94,000-square-foot arts venue that is the first of its kind at the high school level in Colorado.

The building took seven years to complete and cost more than $34 million.

“The reason we are investing that much is because Valor has this vison — we believe that media and the arts are a huge communications portal to our culture,” said Arie Ringnalda, director of Valor arts+media. “So if we are going to teach kids to be leaders with strong values that benefit society, we have to do that well on the arts side.”

According to Ringnalda, the majority of the project was funded by nine anonymous private donors.

“We did our research and couldn’t find anything even close to comparable,” said Valor brand manager Kelly Jelniker.

“It rivals the PACE Center in Parker, the Arvada Center, all of the regional auditoriums.”

Ringnalda said he expects the Valor Center to be open for use by the community next year. Eventually, the center will host professional performances, public speaking series, political debates and local groups such as the South Suburban Community Orchestra.

The new building boasts everything from a professional auditorium to a recording studio, animation and design studios, a broadcast center and art spaces, which range from painting and pottery studios to a photography studio with a darkroom.

The hallways are decorated with a mix of professional and student art displays and the lobby will serve as a gallery space.

The private school in Highlands Ranch has $180,000 worth of pianos throughout the building that were given to the school through a partnership with Yamaha.

Yamaha has a similar partnership with the University of Denver. The pianos are donated for free and then replaced with new models every year. Yamaha then sells the old pianos.

“It’s something they have never done with high schools before,” Ringnalda said.

Valor also has a partnership with McPherson Guitars.

Sophomore Hannah Seely is part of the Valor dance program. She has recently started learning silk aerial, similar to the acrobatics seen at Cirque du Soleil performances.

“I never thought something like this would actually come to life,” Seely said.

“But now that I’m actually in it, it’s amazing.”

Students hang out in the lounge area at the new Valor Center at Valor Christian High School Oct. 22. The project cost more than $34 million.

Tony Bossio is an advanced studio recording student at Valor Christian High School.

Tony Bossio is an advanced studio recording student. He spends his free periods in the studio working on producing and remixing songs. He’s currently working on a remix of Iggy Azalea’s hit “Fancy.”

“It’s absolutely crazy how we can get our hands on this stuff,” Bossio said. “I actually started calling Valor a college now.”

What the Valor Center has to offer • A 750-seat performance hall with a full-fly stage, mechanized pit lift, stateof-the-art lighting, rigging and superior variable acoustics.

• A recording studio designed to attract professional artists from near and far and facilitate opportunities for students to work alongside the industry’s top talent.

Bound for Bennu Lockheed spacecraft gets ready to sample asteroid Staff report The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft, recently completed at Lockheed Martin’s Waterton Canyon facility, will soon be on its way to an asteroid named Bennu that could literally unlock the secrets of life.

“This is an exciting time for the program, as we now have a completed spacecraft, and the team gets to testdrive it, in a sense, before we actually fly it to Bennu,” said Rich Kuhns, program manager at Lockheed, in a news release.

OSIRIS-REx — which stands for “Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security, Regolith Explorer” — is going to Bennu, a carbon-rich, near-Earth asteroid that scientists expect holds clues to the origin of the solar system and the source of water and organic molecules that may have made their way to Earth.

The mission will also provide information for studies on mitigating the impacts of an asteroid hitting Earth, should that ever happen. It will be the first American mission to return samples from an asteroid back to Earth.

Over the next five months, the space-

craft will be subjected to a range of rigorous tests that simulate the harsh environment it will encounter on its journey to Bennu and back, including vacuum, acoustics, shock, vibration and electromagnetic interference.

“The environmental test phase is an important time in the mission, as it will reveal any issues with the spacecraft and instruments, while here on Earth, before we send it into deep space,” said Rich Kuhns, program manager at Lockheed.

Dante Lauretta, principal investigator for OSIRIS-REx at the University of Arizona, Tucson, called it a milestone.

“This phase is critical to mission success, and I am confident that we have built the right system for the job,” he said.

Mike Donnelly, OSIRIS-REx project manager at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, said the project was on time and on budget, with reserves on hand.

“This allows us to have flexibility if any concerns arise during final launch preparations,” he said.

OSIRIS-REx is scheduled to ship from Lockheed to the Kennedy Space Center next May, where it will undergo final preparations for launch in September 2016. It will then head to Bennu and grab at least a 2-ounce sample to bring back to Earth for study.

Mars is even more interesting when a real-life astronaut is talking about it.

An audience of about 340 people gathered at James H. LaRue Library in Highlands Ranch on Oct. 19 to see and listen to Buzz Aldrin, the Apollo 11 lunar module pilot and second man to walk on the moon.

Among the audience members were five students from STEM School and Academy in Highlands Ranch who signed up months ago to volunteer at the event.

“We really want to hear Buzz Aldrin speak,” sophomore Sebastian Del Barco said. “And, of course, we want to meet him.”

The evening started with videos and photos of Aldrin, 85, on his space missions — Gemini 12 in 1966 and Apollo 11 in 1969, with fellow astronaut Neil Armstrong.

got the name “Buzz.”

“My sister pronounced brother as bruzzer,” he said. “So my family called me Buzz for short.”

Edwin Eugene Aldrin Jr. made Buzz his legal first name in the 1980s.

Aldrin also introduced his new children’s book, “Welcome to Mars: Making a Home on the Red Planet,” which is written from the point of view of a young astronaut on a mission to Mars.

“Upon landing, Aldrin describes how the first explorers — including the reader — will de-dust themselves, set up camp and begin finding resources,” according to space.com.

For Del Barco, who is in the engineering program at STEM and aspires to be in the aerospace and aero-economics industries, the event made the dream seem a little closer.

He and his classmates are working on an aerospace intern rocket that tracks things like temperature and pressure at about 1,500 feet off the ground.

Students in the engineering program build everything from robotics to rockets, said Mike Shallenberger, STEM department chair for engineering.

And now five of those students can say they’ve listened to an astronaut speak about the marvels of space.

Genealogy group has education focus Salt Lake City trips are held each year

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Visitors are welcome at meetings of the Columbine Genealogical and Historical Society, which holds two daytime sessions monthly and has a roster of 200 to 300.

An early alliance with Littleton’s Bemis Library was formed and it met there for the first 22 years, as well as contributing thousands of genealogy books and records to Bemis for use as a research collection.

Education is a key objective and annual trips to the Family History Library in Salt Lake City are on the agenda.

The gatherings are now held at Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit, 6400 S. University Blvd., in Centennial, and November meetings offer a good sampler: • “They Weren’t All Prostitutes and Gamblers” is Dr. Sandra Mather’s intriguing title for her talk at 1 p.m. on Nov. 10.

Mather, president of the Summit Historical Society, author and historian, will talk about female pioneers through research using newspaper accounts, census records, photos and diaries — just as genealogists might research an ancestor.

She will refer to Anna Sadler Hamilton, a settler in the mid-1880s whose diary gives an account of her challenges as a newcomer to Colorado’s high country.

• On Nov. 17 from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m., lawyer Kirk Woolsey Patton will present “Genealogical Research with Estate Records: Where There’s Not a Will, There’s Probably Still a Way,” a hands-on workshop on types of records generated if a person dies without leaving a will.

• On Nov. 17 at 1 p.m., professional researcher and author Julie Miller will

Game on diamond is gem of example Well here we are again, October baseball and the postseason. Thirty teams began their road to success back in the off-season and then played 162 games to determine who would make the playoffs as they vie for the title of the 2015 World Series Champions.

Let’s just think about this for a moment, that’s 162 games for 30 different teams (not including the preseason or postseason), so that is 4,860 games played, and approximately 43,740 innings played (not including extra innings or games where weather ended a game early). There were 4,909 home runs, and 37,446 strikeouts. There are statistics and data for every aspect of the game, attendance, injuries, and even the number of hot dogs and beer that are consumed.

Although the official season began back in April and will end the first week in November, their road to success began long before the 2015 season ever started. So how about we make this about you? When did your season or road to success begin for 2015?

Whether you set and planned for your goals on New Year’s Eve or you more recently defined what your personal success would look like, you

will be participating in your own journey, keeping your own statistics, and playing your own game.

If you were pursuing a health goal you might be keeping statistics around calories consumed, days or hours in the gym, steps taken, miles ran, Michael Norton strength or endurance increased, etc.

WINNING As a salesperson WORDS trying to increase sales, revenue and commission, your score keeping may include networking events attended, number of new prospects identified, qualified appointments scheduled, presentations given, proposals generated, contracts signed and referrals received.

So you see, it’s not just about professional athletes and teams who plan, prepare, and achieve success, win World Series trophies, and

receive Most Valuable Player awards; the game of success is for each and every one of us who takes the time to set a worthy goal, has the determination and commitment to see it through, and who carefully keeps score around the actions and behaviors required to meet with their desired level of success.

And as you are looking at the statistic above, 4,909 home runs and 37,446 strikeouts, you can see that there are 7.5 times more failures than there are successes. But for the team that wins the World Series, they only see the strikeouts as temporary setbacks.

So how about you? Are you keeping score and looking at your statistics as you pursue your goals and dreams? Have you turned your goals into a game of success? If you would like to know more about this concept I would love to hear from you at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can look at and evaluate the pursuit of our goals in new ways, it really will be a better than good week.

Michael Norton is a resident of Highlands Ranch, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation and the CEO/founder of www.candogo.com.

Sometimes, there’s music that cuts through murk The Zombies were in town recently.

No, not the candidates.

The “She’s Not There” Zombies.

About 45 years ago, I was in the school newspaper offices at UCLA and spotted a Zombies PR packet. It featured someone named Colin Blunstone.

That name stuck in my head.

A name like Colin Blunstone would stick in the head of someone named Craig Smith.

Blunstone is 70, and all of the other surviving Zombies are older than I am too.

When I saw the newspaper article about their Denver concert, I had to read it twice.

I thought it might be one of those tribute bands.

Nope. It’s them.

It’s not Them.

Them was Van Morrison’s group.

The Zombies had back-to-back hits, and then recorded an album, “Odessey (sic) and Oracle,” that went nowhere initially.

Later Rolling Stone ranked it number 100 on its list of the 500 Great Albums of All Time.

The group played the album in its entirety in Denver.

It’s only 35 minutes long, so they must have added a few songs to the playlist.

I know that some performers stay around forever.

It happens all the time in classical music.

But usually a band that only has a couple of hits fades away.

I tried to imagine some of the other bands from that era touring again.

Herman’s Hermits, Gerry and the Pacemak-

A publication of

ers, Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas.

Billy J. Kramer’s middle initial was not “J.” John Lennon suggested it.

He thought it gave Kramer a “tougher edge.”

Lennon, and Craig Marshall Smith McCartney, also gave Kramer some songs.

QUIET They turned out to DESPERATION be their biggest hits.

Those few years of the early Beatles and all of the bands that followed them from England made a big impression on me.

It was a big improvement.

The radio was backed up with Paul Anka and Frankie Avalon, and, please, Fabian.

Neil Sedaka. Sedaka was awful. Tab Hunter had a hit record.

Music needed a considerable laxative. Am I allowed to say that?

Then things changed. They changed on Sunday, February 9, 1964, when ghoulish Ed Sullivan introduced the Beatles.

It changed again when bands like Led Zeppelin, The Who, and the Yardbirds appeared.

The Kinks were great.

The lead singer, Ray Davies, married the lead singer of the Pretenders, Chrissie Hynde.

Led Zeppelin truly had a tougher edge, and they went along neatly with the Rolling Stones,

who were the bad boys when the Beatles were being sweet and cute.

That changed too.

By the time he died, Lennon had a reputation.

One morning a few years ago, I sat on a bench at the Lennon tribute in Central Park.

It’s called Strawberry Fields. I erased everything in my thoughts for a few minutes except the Beatles.

I saw them in concert two months after Jennifer was born, in the same city.

I cannot imagine that the music on the radio now will impact teenagers like “Please Please Me” affected me.

It’s almost unexplainable.

Everything was beginning to take its shape at that time. I had an identity for the first time.

Music is on all the time here.

When I am writing, I can go back and forth between KVOD and my playlists.

I always have a soundtrack.

Music has been a column theme many times.

Please get used to it.

During KVOD’s fund drive, I listen to my own music.

I came home one day, and a song that I didn’t know I owned was playing.

It was a street corner song by the Pastels.

I first heard “Been So Long” on my brand new transistor radio.

In 1957. It’s been so long.

Got conflict? That’s not necessarily bad Reading the headline, you might first think about someone with a milk mustache, but there is another thing that ALL people have occasionally. Yup, conflict. All of us have experienced conflict at some point. Throughout history, we’ve witnessed horrible consequences of conflict becoming violent, yet also ingenious innovation and inventions that started with the presence of conflict.

With October as Conflict Resolution Month in Colorado, it’s a great time to look at conflict in our lives, how we deal with it, and resources to use when in the middle of stagnant, persistent conflict. Not so ironically, it is also National Bullying Prevention Month and National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, so there are numerous resources right now in particular.

Here are some tips on resolving conflict in your own life: Be preventive - The best way to deal with conflict is to prevent it, if possible. Be proactive and take a short class on conflict management. There are cheap, sometimes

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU

free, workshops available in our area.

You can gain great techniques to help you prevent escalating conflict, or dealing with your or someone else’s angst or anger.

Take an inventory of the conflict in your life - Many of Linda Newell us walk day-to-day, mildly or grossly GUEST tolerant of some angst or conflict in COLUMN our lives, never really acknowledging it. Living like that can add stress not only psychologically, but also take a toll on your health and even lifespan over time. It only takes a short jaunt to your journal or couch for a few minutes and take an inventory of your relationships and situations in your life that might be adding conflict to your

life. Who or what is adding conflict to your life? Write those down TODAY. Do something about it - If being late to school every day creates conflict in your home at the start of the day, stop it! Set alarms earlier or create a better system for your family so everyone can start their day peacefully. If you’re not talking with your boss about the bullying behavior going on in the office or your cubicle neighbor who’s irritating you, talk to them. Most conflicts can get resolved just by starting the conversation. Better relationships and working environments result just from listening and talking with each other honestly and respectfully.

Get some help - If there is conflict in your life that you feel you can’t resolve on your own, talk to a professional. Whether it’s a dispute with a neighbor, coworker, spouse/former spouse or organization, there are numerous resources right in our area. Conflict coaches, group facilitators and mediators are all ways to find fair scenarios that can move through conflict

peacefully … without going to court or dragging your own health down the proverbial toilet.

Jail sees third inmate Feds block push death in month to create pot bank Sheriff says no foul play seen in latest incident Staff report The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the Oct. 22 death of inmate James Proctor, 28, the third inmate to die in the county jail this month.

During an inmate count at about 5:30 a.m., deputies approached the cell where Proctor and another inmate were, according to a news release. The other man responded to the deputies, but Proctor was unresponsive. Deputies immediately notified medical staff and began lifesaving efforts, but Proctor was pronounced deceased at 5:44 a.m.

Proctor had been arrested without incident by the Littleton Police Department on a warrant for failing to appear in court on a DUI case. He arrived at the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office Detention Facility about 2 p.m. Oct. 21 and was awaiting

assignment to a housing unit. Deputies had been in his cell at 2 a.m. Oct. 22, and Proctor was alive at that time. The sheriff’s office says there was no apparent indication of foul play, but the investigation is ongoing.

On Oct. 3, two Arapahoe County jail inmates died — one by suicide, the other apparently by murder.

On the afternoon of Oct. 1, 46-year-old Tyler Hawkins was found hanging from a noose, apparently fashioned from a towel, in the shower area of the inpatient medical housing unit, according to a release.

He was immediately transported to a local hospital.

The next day, Oct. 2, an assault occurred that ended the life of inmate Michael Roy Craven Jr., 43. Fellow inmate Eric Stewart, also 43, has been charged with second-degree murder.

Craven was pronounced dead at 5:07 a.m. Oct. 3. Hawkins, who never improved, lived nearly 10 hours longer and was pronounced dead at 3:42 p.m. His death was ruled a suicide.

Colorado’s weed industry remains in financial limbo

By Kristen Wyatt Associated Press Colorado’s attempt to create a bank to service its marijuana industry has suffered another setback by the federal government and could be facing an impossible dilemma.

The Federal Reserve — the guardian of the U.S. banking system — said in a court filing Oct. 21 that it doesn’t intend to accept a penny connected to the sale of pot because the drug remains illegal under federal law.

The stance appears to mark a shift in the position of the federal government.

Last year, the U.S. Treasury Department issued rules for how banks can accept pot money.

“We’re frustrated,” said Andrew Freedman, director of marijuana coor-

S2

dination for Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper. “We tried to do the most with the building blocks of instructions they sent us, set up the most rigorous solution.

And we still are left with confusion.”

The filing came in a legal battle between the Federal Reserve and the would-be Fourth Corner Credit Union, which was set up last year to serve Colorado’s $700 million-a-year marijuana industry.

The credit union can’t open without clearance from the Federal Reserve, which said in its filing that “transporting or transmitting funds known to have derived from the distribution of marijuana is illegal.”

Colorado chartered the Fourth Corner Credit Union after the Treasury Department issued its guidance last year on marijuana banking. Fourth Corner was designed to give the industry in Colorado a safe place to bank while paying steep fees to account for all the hoops set up by the Treasury Department.

Options to combat hearing loss have evolved

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com

W

hile many vision problems are easily detected and treated, experts say it isn’t that way with hearing loss.

“I knew it was getting hard to hear people talking, particularly in a crowd, but I just figured it was because I was getting older,” Douglas County resident Julie Foster said.

She said her family finally insisted she get her hearing checked.

“I had a hearing test that showed I had hearing loss in both ears,” the 68-year-old said. “I put it off, but eventually did get hearing aids. It was a huge change, and it was fun to hear everything clearly again.”

Statistics from The National Institute of Deafness and Other Communications Disorders show that about 28 million Americans suffer hearing loss, including deafness. The same report stated that only about 6 million Americans have sought to correct the problem with hearing aids.

Ronald Olson, clinical audiologist at the University of Colorado Hospital, said people usually only get their hearing checked when they sense a loss.

“Most people never get their hearing checked,” he said. “Usually people only decide to come in for a hearing test when they’re noticing more difficulty in one-onone conversations, in group situations and in background noise.”

Olson said the first test is called a baseline test and is used in future treatment to determine whether the loss is increasing.

If the person chooses to get hearing aids, the baseline test determines the need — whether it is amplification of all frequencies, amplification of certain frequencies or reduction of background noise.

Technology has made it possible to screen the hearing of about 95 percent of newborns before they leave the hospital using an auditory brain response measurement, he said.

Jim Woodward, former Englewood mayor, said he decided to have a hearing test soon after he was elected to the city council.

“After two meetings, I realized I couldn’t hear most of the conversations and discussions,” he said. “I went and had my hearing tested and purchased hearing aids for both ears.”

He was surprised to find the hearing aids were expensive and that most types of insurance do not cover them.

Hearing test provides diagnosis

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Rebecca Heilig adminsters a hearing test in the officer of the Hearing Rehab Center office in Centennial. Heilig, an audiologist, administers hearing tests for those who are experiencing hearing difficulties as the first step to determine if a hearing assistance device is needed.

“I began using the hearing aids, and I found they made some difference,” he said. “It wasn’t a huge difference, but it did help me to hear what was being said at the council meetings. These work OK and, although technology has come a long way, I have no plans to upgrade to new hearing aids.”

Efforts to deal with hearing problems date to the 1700s, when a firm marketed the ear trumpet, a long funnel-like device designed to focus sound into the ear. In the late 1880s, a company used the same technology as that used in telephones to amplify sound to market a hearing aid.

There were hearing aids that used vacuum tubes, transistors and, eventually, digital technology.

Rebecca Heilig, an audiologist with the commercial firm Hearing Rehab Centers, said for years hearing aids were bulky. In the 1960s, for example, the patient wore a box around the neck wired with a set of earphones.

“Those were just amplifiers,” she said.

“By that, I mean those devices amplified all frequencies the same. The advance was to analog devices that were made so small adjustments could be made with a screwdriver.”

For many years, hearing aids were visible, with a mold in the ear connected by tubing to a device usually worn behind the ear.

Technology has shrunk the size and

Technology has created a variety of sizes and shapes for devices to help people who suffer hearing loss. shape of hearing aids. Today, a patient can choose a hearing aid that fits entirely inside the ear. One of the latest devices is tiny, placed inside the ear and replaced about every month.

There are also devices not connected to the ear, like bone conduction hearing aids. These are implanted in the bony area behind the ear and conduct the sound through the bone to the ear.

Today, digital hearing aids allow audiologists to use wireless technology, view the information on a computer and make adjustments to frequencies, volume and noise reduction.

“The technology is getting better all the time,” Heilig said. “Everything is adjusted through the computer, with advances to allow more adjustments to fine-tune each frequency to better accommodate the patient’s need.”

A hearing test takes about an hour and is very informative.

Hearing Rehab Center, a commercial firm with a number of offices around the metro area, offers free tests.

The company Tom Munds carries hearing aids from a number of commercial manufacturers if a patient decides he or she wants to purchase one.

Rebecca Heilig, an audiologist with the Hearing Rehab Center in Centennial, administered a full test on me.

I was seated in a sound-proof room.

For this test, I chose to wear headphones, but could have selected earbuds.

Heilig told me there would be sounds of different volume and frequency coming through the headset and, when I heard the sound, I was to press the button I was holding.

She shut the door and moved to her computer control panel. She could see me through the window connecting the two areas and she could talk to me through the headphones.

In addition to the tones, she also measured how well I could hear despite background noise by asking me to repeat sentences. There were other audio tests as well.

The test took about an hour and, when completed, she provided me a report on the results. In my case, the test showed I had significant hearing loss in the left ear and, to hear normally, I probably should get a hearing aid.

A musical dialogue on politics, hope Nobody really likes election season, right?

The idea behind it is one thing: Nobility and inspiration in the notion of citizens having a voice in their government and, if necessary, changing it peacefully.

But the multi-year trial that election season has become, particularly with presidential races —consider we still have a full 12 months to go — can cause even the most ardent of patriots to despair.

But despite the system’s imperfections, there are times when the dialogue surrounding our country’s direction can create something beautiful.

The turbulent 1960s led to some of the best music ever recorded. So many of those songs were birthed out of political frustration and helplessness. Bob Dylan rightly stands out as the pinnacle of this kind of expression, and his 1963 anthem “Blowin’ in the Wind” helped to bring protest music into the mainstream.

It’s never left.

Today, protest music has worked its way into all genres — you can hear it in the Dixie Chicks’ and Tom Morello’s take on folk, Green Day’s pop-punk, and rap from Public Enemy to Kendrick Lamar.

But “Blowin’ in the Wind” remains unassailable.

For a long time, Dylan claimed it wasn’t a protest song, saying at an early performance in April 1962, “This here ain’t no protest song or anything like that, ‘cause I don’t write no protest songs.”

And in regards to “Blowin’ in the Wind,” he’s right. It’s not angry. He’s not throwing out blame at any particular person or institution. And he’s certainly not pushing for any change or remedy.

Instead of offering answers, it’s all questions: “How many deaths will it take till he knows/That too many people have died?” and “How many years can some people

exist/Before they’re allowed to be free?”

There are no hard and fast answers. The questions were meant to be pondered and debated.

“Blowin’ in the Wind” was a challenge to the world that changed the way many people thought about society.

One who perhaps heard Dylan’s call the clearest was Sam Cooke, Clarke Reader who translated what he heard into “A Change is Gonna Come,” LINER Cooke’s crowning achievement and NOTES a standard of the Civil Rights era.

According to Rolling Stone magazine, what really impressed Cooke was the way Dylan wrote a song that transcended race so powerfully. Reportedly, Cooke said “Jeez — a white boy writing a song like that?”

Inspired by Dylan and pulling from his own experiences — including being arrested for disturbing the peace in Louisiana in 1963 when he and his band tried to check in at a white motel — Cooke used his soaring vocals tell a story of despair and the strength of hope.

The way he stretches out the word “born” in the first line still gives goosebumps. His lyrics about loss are immediately recognizable to all who have experienced it: There been times when I thought I couldn’t last for long But now I think I’m able to carry on It’s been a long time coming But I know a change is gonna come, oh, yes, it will “A Change is Gonna Come” remains vital, not just to the African-American community (still waiting for the

realization of many of the promises made), but also to all hoping for a change in the world. The song is regularly name-checked in rap songs, ensuring younger generations stay aware of its message and power.

The musical dialogue between these two men is indicative of the power of discussion. And that’s what elections should be about.

Because those same answers are still on the wind. And there’s only one way that change is gonna come.

Sad day comes for downtown Denver eatery The owner of Lower48 Kitchen, a contemporary American eatery at 2020 Lawrence St., announced in an email to customers that it will close after dinner service on Nov. 7. Here’s some of what owner Mario Nocifera wrote: “Good afternoon friends, “I am reaching out on behalf of the entire Lower48 team. Chef/partner Alex Figura and I started this adventure four years ago with sincere goals and I couldn’t be more proud of what we, as a team, created.

“I write to you with a heavy heart, as we have made the very difficult decision to close Lower48. Our last night of service will be Saturday, November 7, and we hope you will come in and join us in celebration and reflection of two great years serving the community.

“To the team that helped open Lower48, to our fantastic guests, loyal supporters, friends & family, landlord and investors: thank you for your generosity, belief, unwavering support and tireless work to help grow and develop Lower48 into what it is today.”

Planning, planting are key to attracting birds Gardeners can do their part to create habitat

IF YOU GO The Garden Club of Littleton meets on the first Wednesday of each month, September to May, at 6 p.m. at the Littleton Public Schools Educational Services Center lunchroom, 5776 S. Crocker St., Littleton.

(Enter from the south side.) Social time and refreshments are offered at 6 p.m., followed by a speaker at 6:30.

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Gardeners can provide important habitat for native birds,” says Anne Phelps of the long-running Littleton Garden Club. “In turn, birds offer us a richer and more beautiful place to live.”

The club will hear a talk by Audubon Society Director Karl Brummert about creating a backyard habitat at 6:30 p.m.

Nov. 4. Visitors and prospective members are welcome.

Attracting birds to your yard requires four basic elements, Phelps says: • Food. Consider placing a wide variety of bird feeders and food around your back yard. Include different kinds of feeding stations: platform feeders for groundfeeding birds, such as juncos; hanging feeders for perching birds, such as chickadees and finches; suet feeders for insecteating birds, such as flickers and downy woodpeckers.

• Shelter and places to rear their young.

Wild birds feel more secure if they have shelter to protect themselves from the elements and predators. Trees and large shrubs are welcome as places to raise and protect their young. Consider offering nesting boxes and nesting materials in the spring.

• Water. Probably the single most important element to include in your backyard habitat is water. The sound of moving water is magnetic to most birds.

If you add a heater in winter, available at wild bird supply stores and some hard-

SOME SUGGESTED PLANTS TO ATTRACT BIRDS

Flocks of lesser goldfinches are attracted by thistle seeds in particular, which require a special feeder. Photo by Dick Vogel for Greater Denver Audubon Society ware stores, it will draw birds because you will provide fresh water in a season when bird baths otherwise freeze over.

• Variety of foliage and habitat. The greater variety or diversity you create, the more birds you will attract. Offer plants and foliage that produce berries, seeds, fruits, nuts, sap and nectar for yearround food as well as providing nesting materials. Shrubs and trees should be dense enough to protect nests, while still allowing birds to move freely among the

branches to escape predators. “Of all the trees to select from, your best investment is an evergreen,” Phelps concludes.

• Reporter’s note: An important point number five is DO NOT use pesticides.

(Caterpillars provide a large percentage of spring and summer food for a bird such as the chickadee and its nestlings — the gardener can depend on this natural kind of pest control. This approach also protects the all-important pollinators such as bees and butterflies.)

Hudson Gardens, 6115 S. Santa Fe Drive, Littleton, has its Songbird Garden in the south part of the acreage. When it was installed a few years ago, an initial plant list was released: sunset hyssop, red osier dogwood, hedge cotoneaster, upright prairie coneflower, blanket flower, Arnold’s red honeysuckle, tall Oregon grape, holly, Oregon grape holly, bee balm, common evening primrose, beardlip penstemon, narrowleaf cottonwood, golden currant, little bluestem grass, Indian grass. Hudson Gardens has many nearby evergreens and other trees and shrubs already established, as well as water flowing through to the pond. (The Audubon Nature Center at the south end of Chatfield State Park also has gardens that attract birds and pollinators.)

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com The viewer at a new exhibit in Parker will want to stop in front of each artwork and consider what materials were used in creating it. Mosaic tiles, glass, rocks, bits of mirror, gems, seeds, metal pieces and more are combined in imaginative ways to make a framed piece of art — one that will change with shifting light.

Design ranges from traditional to abstract in a great variety of textures and colors.

The exhibit is “Assemblage: Works by the Colorado Mosaic Artists,” installed in the gallery and on lobby walls at Parker’s PACE Center through Nov. 14. The group seeks to promote mosaic as a fine art and educate the public about how it’s done and about possible uses. Members also contribute effort and art to a chartable project regularly, adding brightness to new surroundings, including projects overseas.

A prospective mosaic artist can find information about meetings and classes at the CMA website (coloradomosaics.org), where they will be assured that new members are welcome. A number of members offer instruction, and there are local and statewide meetings and exhibits such as “Assemblage.”

Pieces are displayed in the Bellco Credit Union Art Gallery inside the PACE Center’s

IF YOU GO The PACE Center is at 20000 Pikes Peak Ave., Parker. There is no admission charge and the art can be seen during daytime hours and at night when there is a performance scheduled. 303-805-6800.

entrance and along lobby walls. Most are for sale.

Included are several south area artists: Ron Candelaria of Littleton has a 36-by72-inch panel in the gallery, a landscape made of small tiles. He is new to the art form and also has another smaller piece in the show.

Susan A. Judy of Centennial builds “geofantasies” with semiprecious gemstones, crystals, fossils and quarried stone, called pietra dura mosaic. She exhibits at international rock and gem shows, art and geologic forums.

Judy Pendelton of Parker says her lifelong love of quilting, drawing and collage led her to mosaics. Sources for ideas come from her extensive world travels.

Marlea Taylor of Englewood said, “Shape, color and texture interest me. Mosaics are a great way to explore all three.”

Her abstract landscape tile mosaic is completed in subdued earth tones.

Other artists in the exhibit are Jane Glotzer, Lynnette Kupferer, Delcia Litt, Charles Meyers, Pat Monroe, Carol Turtness Newman, Kathy Thaden, Jan Wharton, Becki Whittington and Jean Wilson.

‘Bookface’ journey gets underway Musical comedy tests its wings at Aurora Fox

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com The weekend of Oct. 16-18 marked the debut of a new musical comedy starting on its way out into the world. The Aurora Fox mainstage was the venue for Melissa Faith Hart and Bruce Perry to launch “Bookface,” a musical tale of three generations of the Klein family — which is not a new concept. The comedy asks: What really connects us?

But this is about how that particular family communicates with each other — online, with cell phones and tablets — and with grandparents via landline phone, as they deal with pretty standard cultural situations. Jewish grandparents, Catholic-Jewish marriage of their son, and the impact of Christmas in a mixed household, a troubled middle-age marriage … and then there’s the Muslim girl, Mia (Chanel Karimkhani), who has become a Christian, in love with the son of the Catholic-Jewish marriage — which gives grandmother even more cause for alarm.

Throughout the story, Sarah Klein (Rachel Turner), Mia’s college roommate and close friend, serves as a sort of narrator. She starts singing with “Remember When” and threads songs through the story, with others at times.

Clever use of a projector weaves

Rachel tries to improve communication between her parents and worries about them. Megan Van De Hay and Kevin Schwartz play the parents, while David Payne and Jan Giese are the grandparents and Andrew Keeler is Rachel’s brother. An experienced cast helped with carrying a new show that will still benefit from some tweaks here and there. The concept/story works.

A pianist accompanied the singers, with pleasing arrangements.

The energetic, talented Hart is a former Parker resident, who now lives in Denver.

Her Slingshot Productions company still lists a Parker address. She and her friend, performer/writer Bruce Perry, who has Broadway experience, developed the idea for “Bookface” two years ago and engaged producing partner Rabs Hughey. A script and songs flowed forth and the show was ready for a first go.

Special writing contributions came from Robert Michael Sanders, the show’s director, and Frank Harrison, and musical arrangement contribution from Donna Debrecini combined into a musical that is on its way. Sanders’ notes talk of the excitement and challenges of “creating something new. There’s no right, there’s no wrong. It’s the director’s job to find a way to best tell the story that the writers and composers intended …”

The first presentation was confined to a single weekend. We will watch for news about what happens next with “Bookface.”

Children’s Hospital opens sports therapy field

By Alex DeWind adewind@colorado communitymedia.com Children’s Hospital Colorado South Campus opened its first outdoor sports therapy field for young rehabilitees.

An opening ceremony was held Oct. 13 at the campus off Lucent Drive in Highlands Ranch. Denver Broncos linebacker Brandon Marshall assisted children in cutting a blue ribbon next to the facility.

“This field is very useful,” said Bridget Younger, manager of Children’s Hospital Colorado Sports Medicine Program. “It’s an extra tool to use.”

The outdoor field, which has a soccer field and basketball court, will be used by adolescents in the final stages of their recovery processes.

Jay Albright, the program’s surgical director, sees 95 percent of his patients for sports-related injuries like ligament tears and concussions. The field will replicate the surface that the patient will eventually be training on again.

It allows physical therapists to see patients in a real-time environment, rather than just a clinic, said Younger.

“This field is one of a kind,” Albright said.

And it is: it’s the first outdoor sports therapy field for Children’s Hospital Colorado.

CU – Boulder key partner innational Calendar of Events STEM center initiative To Noah Finkelstein it’s more of a movement. And it’s one that will go a long way to address the well-documented shortage of professionals in certain science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields.

The University of Colorado Boulder and University of Massachusetts Amherst are lead public campuses partnering with the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities to create a national network of about 200 campus STEM education centers.

This project, funded by a $1.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation, will create a network that supports and incubates these centers, provides a critical resource for stakeholders to engage with universities around STEM education and allows for essential research on the nature of these centers and the processes of network formation.

“We are now in a position to move beyond individual and isolated efforts and to leverage cross-institutional work,” said Finkelstein, CU-Boulder physics professor and network co-director.

STEM education centers serve as campus-based resources for addressing the national call for improving science, technology, engineering and mathematics education at the undergraduate level.

These centers serve as homes for interdisciplinary and cross-unit work, support transformation of educational practices, provide resources within and across disciplines and serve as a locus for educational research, evaluation and systematic transformation.

In recent years, there has been significant growth in number and scale of these centers yet there is no established network or coordination.

The project will also examine the capacities and mechanisms of individual centers and identify how such a network forms and what it may accomplish.

The five-year project will yield a new national resource that will impact individual centers and campuses and provide a new platform for systemic transformation of undergraduate STEM education.

The network will provide programming and resources for established and new STEM centers including conferences, learning communities, an online engagement platform, toolkits of resources for centers and directory of centers for the community and external stakeholders.

“It’s extremely valuable for institutions to have a dedicated forum to exchange ideas, compare practices and work together to address the pressing need to improve and expand undergraduate STEM education across the country,” Finkelstein said.

FRIENDS FIRST Celebrates New Location Parents, students, and other community members celebrate past projects and future plans Greenwood Village just got a lot FRIENDLY…FRIENDS FIRST relocated to their new location at 7100 E. Belleview Ave. Suite 303. On Tuesday, October 20th members of the community and South Metro Denver Chamber welcomed the impactful nonprofit with a ribbon cutting and open house.

The event included drinks, light hors d’oeuvres and door prizes. Staff shared their passion for working with students and the impact FRIENDS FIRST has had over the 22 years.

Students shared how the organization has taught them compassion. One young teen spoke to the crowd stating “FRIENDS FIRST has boosted her self-confidence and she looks forward to seeing her friends.”

“FRIENDS FIRST serves over 30 schools in the Denver metro area. We are happy to now occupy an office closer to the students and families we serve,” said Elycia Cook, Executive Director of FRIENDS FIRST. “We are also

excited to be surrounded by a community of businesses, with whom we hope to build partnerships for the future success of our teens. This Open House is not only a celebration and an opportunity to share about FRIENDS FIRST, but also a way for us to say thank you to our families, friends, and community of supporters.”

FRIENDS FIRST is known as a community leader in peer mentoring, working to educate and inspire teens to avoid high-risk behaviors, develop a strong sense of selfawareness, and prevent negative social interactions like bullying. Community service projects are an integral part of FRIENDS FIRST’s STARS peer mentoring program because they help teens cultivate compassion, one of the core elements of bullying prevention.

Following the celebration teens and staff finished preparing for Make Difference Day – October 24, 2015. Over 30 FRIENDS FIRST teens, parents, and

staff distributed blankets and hygiene kits to people experiencing homelessness in the areas surrounding 26th & California in Denver. FRIENDS FIRST decided to focus their community service in this neighborhood because it is undergoing an increase in people experiencing homelessness due to the area’s gentrification, rising rents, and the resulting displacement.

Mission: FRIENDS FIRST educates and mentors teens to make positive life choices and develop healthy relationships.

Wolves become the hunted

Turnovers a winning touch for Heritage Nine players have combined for 12 interceptions

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Coming into the season, Heritage football coach Tyler Knoblock had a hunch that the Eagles’ defense would be vital component of the team’s success.

His instinct was right.

Heritage is 6-2 overall so far this season and 4-1 in the 5A South Metro League, and the defense has been the backbone of many victories.

“Up until the Aurora Hinkley game (a 54-18 win), our defense was really carrying us,” explained Knoblock. “In the Hinkley game our offense started clicking at the level we thought it could.

“Coming into the season we thought the defense was going to be the key element to our team. We kind of split our guys up, some guys only play defense and some only play offense. When we picked sides and who is going where, we definitely put guys that we knew could get the job done on defense. Our biggest, fastest most physical guys really got to defensive side with a few exceptions.”

Heritage is plus six this season in turnover margin, and the Eagles have nine players who have combined for 12 interceptions.

“Our defensive staff does an incredible job of preparation,” added Knoblock.

“Our defensive coordinator Tyler Johnson (a Douglas County graduate), who is actually our secondary coach as well, and coach Justin Byleveld are two of the best football minds defensively that I’ve ever been around.

“So to say I expected that many picks, not necessarily, but to say we expected to play good defense, absolutely.”

Daejour Haynes, a cornerback who

‘We are certainly happy any time we generate a turnover.’

Tyler Knoblock, Heritage football coach also is a running back, has three interceptions, and cornerback Alex Molter has two.

Free safety Mitchell Debban, inverted safety Ryen Mudadi, linebacker Ty Whetzel, linebacker Anthony Gray, linebacker Jack Brouillette, linebacker Charlie Pontiff and defensive end Marshall Cain each have one interception. All the players are seniors except Debban, who is a junior.

“With the picks, knowing how good and aggressively our defensive line can play that generally is what leads to the picks because that forces the poor decisions by the other quarterback,” said Knoblock. “There have been a few of our picks that have been great plays by our secondary.”

Molter is the leader of the secondary.

“Alex Molter is one of our captains, one of our corners who does a really nice job of just being the energy, and he embodies the personality of our defensive secondary,” said Knoblock. “He takes coach Johnson’s energy and fire, and puts it inside a helmet on the field.

“Mitchell Debban is just a junior but has grown in that role. He’s a quiet kid off the field, but he really controls that stuff for us. Ryen Mudadi being a force player off the edge coming off a blitzing a little bit.”

Knoblock points out that Haynes is a distinctive player.

“Daejour is one of our few guys still

playing both ways because he’s done it for two years,” he said. “He’s one of those guys even when we were doing our hardest track workouts in the middle of the summer we struggled to wear him down. He’s a guy that can handle it both physically and mentally.

“He does have three interceptions, and what is funny is he will almost call it sometimes. He gets a feeling and goes and makes a play. He’s a very unique kid, a very unique personality. He’s the only person in the world I know named Daejour, and he plays kind of like that, like a very unique individual.”

Knoblock expects the Eagles to begin putting it all together with one week remaining before the start of the playoffs.

Heritage’s offense stepped in a 62-43 win over Gateway on Oct. 23.

“We are certainly happy any time we generate a turnover,” said Knoblock.

“We’re proud of that number of interceptions. I told the guys that I’d be more impressed if we have even more after nine weeks.

“We’re a 6-2 football team right now, and that’s a mark you have to be a certainly proud of … but we know we haven’t put a full four quarters and all three phases together yet. If our kids can put it together we can do some real nice things. If we do it flying under the radar a little bit, that’s OK.”

South metro soccer teams make playoffs Arapahoe is seeded fourth in Class 5A Staff report State soccer playoff pairings were released Oct. 25, and 10 south metro teams will play opening-round games on Oct. 29.

In Quadrant 1, 25 seed Legacy will play

eighth-seeded ThunderRidge at Shea Stadium. No. 6 Heritage will host No. 27 Bear Creek in Quadrant 2. No. 29 Rock Canyon will face No. 4 Arapahoe in a 3:30 p.m. game at Arapahoe in Quadrant 2, while No. 28 Mountain Vista plays at No. 5 Monarch in another Quadrant 2 contest.

No. 26 Douglas County travels to the Stutler Bowl for a 4 p.m. match against No. 7 Cherry Creek in Quadrant 4, while No. 39 Legend plays No. 10 Lincoln in a 4

p.m. contest.

Ponderosa is seeded eighth in the Class 4A bracket and will play No. 25 Pueblo West in a 5 p.m. Quandrant 1 game at Sports Authority Stadium. No. 28 Harrison will play No. 7 Littleton in a Quadrant 4 match, while No. 19 Valor Christian meets No. 14 Lewis Palmer in a 6 p.m., Quadrant 3 game at Don Breese Stadium. Second round games are scheduled for Nov. 4.

This is a story about the hunter becoming the hunted.

Westminster’s football team, which has been decent in recent years, is 8-0 this season and has a target on its collective back with other teams trying to knock off the Wolves.

Jim Benton “It’s great for the school itself,” said OVERTIME Westminster coach Kerry Denison. “There’s a lot of positive energy going on here. It’s been a good experience. The kids understand we have a big target on our backs. The kids are understanding that it is a good feeling to have done what we have done so far.”

It’s frustrating, but nobody seems to know where the eight straight victories rank in Westminster lore. One fan sent an e-mail stating that the 1989 team, which was using the nickname Warriors, went 10-0 but lost their last two games.

That was before Westminster and Ranum merged in 2009 and the new school building was built in 2010. So the 8-0 start is considered the best in school history, meaning the new school.

“I haven’t been able to find anything either about the past,” said Denison. “We’re trying to keep our perfect record going. The one thing we have still missed out on is a conference championship, and our goal is a conference championship. We’ve had some decent teams, but these kids have jelled together better than the teams we’ve had in the past.”

Westminster has clinched at least a tie for the Flatirons League championship and can secure the outright title with a win at home Oct. 30 against second-place Boulder.

Overcoming adversity Mountain Vista’s standout sophomore runner Allie Chipman has overcome adversity before and will have to do it again at the Oct. 31 State High School Cross-Country Championships in Colorado Springs.

Chipman is struggling with allergies, and she has dealt with asthma her whole life. She was extremely sick with pneumonia and whooping cough last winter, which slowed her during last track season.

After dominating this season in crosscountry, she skipped last week’s Region 5 meet because of foot problems. But she will compete at the state meet.

“I will be competing at state because fortunately my team qualified for me,” said Chipman. “The issue with my feet is a bone spur and plantar fasciitis. I am improving rapidly, and I will be able to compete at 100 percent with my ankle at state. It’s impossible to know how I will feel in Colorado Springs, but I am going to give state my best shot.”

Doubling up at Chaparral Alan DiGiosio will be the new head baseball coach at Chaparral next spring. After the Wolverines lost a semifinal Class 5A game at the State Softball Tournament, DiGiosio declared he would remain as softball coach.

“I am not going anywhere,” he said. “I told them I wasn’t giving up softball, and if they didn’t let me do both that I wasn’t doing baseball.”

DiGiosio just completed his fifth season as head softball coach, and he has been the Wolverines baseball pitching coach for the past nine campaigns.

Final week of regular season There are several key football games to determine league championships as the Class 5A regular season ends.

Grandview and Valor Christian are both unbeaten in the Centennial League and will clash for the loop title Oct. 30 in an 8 p.m. game at Valor.

Westminster has clinched at least a tie for the 5A Flatirons crown but can capture the outright title with a win over Boulder Oct. 30 in a game at Westminster.

Arapahoe plays Smoky Hill Oct. 30. The unbeaten Warriors, who have shown an amazing ability to pull out victories in a couple games that didn’t look winnable, are assured of a share of the 5A Metro League title but can avoid a tie with a win over the Buffs.

Valor overcomes Creek in defensive struggle Eagles’ big play sparks 10-0 win over Bruins

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com It was a defensive struggle between two elite football programs, and almost everybody at Valor Christian’s Stadium figured that one big play would determine the winner.

It was Valor that got a 97-yard pass from Dylan McCaffrey to Ben Walters, which sealed the Eagles’ 10-0 Centennial League victory over Cherry Creek on Oct. 23.

It was Valor’s first victory over Creek, which beat the Eagles twice last season in the first meetings between the schools. The Bruins’ second win last year came in the Class 5A state championship game.

“We knew it was going to be a hardfought game, and we expect to see them

again,” said Walters. “We knew they had an amazing defense and that was something we had to get past. Our defense played amazing too.”

Valor, which came into the game ranked third in the CHSAANow.com poll, improved to 4-0 in the league and 6-2 overall. Defending state champion Cherry Creek, ranked second, lost its second consecutive game and fell to 2-2 in the Centennial and 6-2 overall.

“When you play a good team there are plays you need to make,” pointed out Creek coach Dave Logan. “Valor made a big play.”

Key Moments Valor was nursing a 3-0 lead and was backed up at its 3-yard line after stopping a Creek fourth down attempt to take the lead. McCaffrey threw a long pass down field; Creek’s Javier Craft had good coverage on Walters, but Valor’s 6-foot-1 senior turned back to get the ball and then raced to the end

zone, which helped push the Eagles to a 10-point advantage with 11:27 left in the game.

“That’s what we practice all the time,” said Walters. “I was glad Dylan was able to make the throw like he always does, and I just had to come back and make a play.”

Key players/statistics All the key statistics belong to the defense in this game.

Valor finished with 225 yards of total offense, but 97 came on one play. Before that play, the Eagles had 98 yards of total offense. Creek finished with only 194 yards total offense and failed to score three times in the red zone.

Gabriel Kortz, Noah Elliss and Cole Baker each had six tackles for the Eagles, who had six sacks during the game. McCaffrey wound up completing eight of 17 passes for 147 yards.

Freshman Joshia Davis replaced Tanner Tadra, who was carted off the field to the hospital as a precaution for numbness in his arms and a headache, and was the top Valor ground gainer with 22 yards.

Tadra could return to play this season. Valor wide receiver Adryon Vickers, who was also taken to the hospital, suffered a broken fibula.

Santino Marchiol and Austin Cooper were each credited with six tackles for the Bruins, who sacked McCaffrey twice. Marquise Davis rushed for 108 yards on 18 carries. Quarterback Joe Caplis finished 10-25 for 104 yards and one interception.

who had two sacks. “It was a hard test.

They have a great offense. We know that Cherry Creek is a dangerous team, (and) they are one of the best schools in Colorado. We knew we had to play all four quarters.

“At 3-0 we were comfortable because we knew it was going to be a defensive game. We had to keep going forward and never go through the motions. We are not satisfied with the win. It was a big one for us, but we have to keep moving forward hoping this will give us motivation and a little bit of that extra fire against Grandview.”

“I’m really proud of our kids,” said Valor coach Rod Sherman. “That team is as good of a team as we’ve played all year. We feel very, very fortunate to win.

It was going to come down to a couple plays. The games we’ve played against Creek have come down to just a few plays. We put pressure on the quarterback and tackled well. Our defensive line really helped our secondary.”

Logan acknowledged the Bruins didn’t execute on several plays that could have made a difference.

“We fumbled the ball inside the 15 and get stopped inside the five,” he said. “We had other big plays for touchdowns that we missed. We just have to go back to the drawing board and get a lot better. Offensively we had ample opportunities for big plays. Credit Valor and credit both teams for playing exceptionally hard. It was a really hardfought game. I was really proud of the way the defense played.”

Going forward Valor will play Grandview for the Centennial League championship Oct. 30 while Creek will host Eaglecrest.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF OCT. 26, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might be growing impatient with a situation that seems to resist efforts to resolve it. But staying with it raises the odds that you’ll find a way to a successful resolution.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Travel and kinship are strong in the Bovine’s aspect this week.

This would be a good time to combine the two and take a trip to see family members for a preholiday get-together.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A colleague could make a request you’re not comfortable with. If so, say so. Better to disappoint someone by sticking with your principles than disappoint yourself if you don’t.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Moon Child’s ability to adapt to life’s ebbs and flows helps you deal with the changes that you might confront at work or at home, or both. Things settle down by the week’s end.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) It’s a good week for Leos and Leonas to get some long-outstanding business matters resolved. Then go ahead and plan a fun-filled family getaway weekend with the mate and the cubs.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A possible workplace change seems promising. If you decide to look into it, try not to form an opinion on just a small part of the picture: Wait for the full image to develop.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A newcomer helps keep things moving. There might be some bumpy moments along the way, but at least you’re heading in the right direction. You win praise for your choices.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You could be pleasantly surprised by how a decision about one thing opens up an unexpected new option. Also, assistance on a project could come from a surprising source.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) With more information to work with, you might now be able to start the process that could lead to a major change. Reserve the weekend for family and friends.

Super Crossword & Sudoku Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) This could be a good time to begin gathering information that will help you turn that long-held idea into something substantive. A personal matter might need extra attention.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) That new challenge might carry some surprises. But you should be able to handle them using what you already know. That new supporter should be there to lend assistance.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Someone might be trying to disguise his or her true motives. But the perceptive and perspicacious Pisces should have little or no problem finding the truth in all that foggy rhetoric.

BORN THIS WEEK: You can always rely on your people skills to help you find solutions to problems others often give up on. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling $ 16,487.00 (10% of the Secretary's bid) in the form of a certified check or cashier's check made out to the Secretary of HUD.

Each oral bid need not be accompanied by an additional deposit. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $ 16,487.00 must be presented before the bidding is closed.

Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant, and has no obligation to deliver the property vacant.

The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner not less than 3 days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure sale is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the Note and Deed of Trust are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified or cahier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before public auction of the property is completed.
