PLE ASE RECYCLE T HIS C OPY

canderson@colorado communitymedia.com On July 1, Daniel McMinimee walked in the doors of the Jefferson County Public Schools district office, taking over the superintendent’s post that had been held by Cindy Stevenson.

CCM had the opportunity to sit down with the newly hired superintendent to gain his opinion and insights on the key educational issues and how he plans to manage the state’s second-largest school district.

The interview has been lightly edited for clarity and space purposes. For an abbreviated version of this article, check out the online version at www.coloradocommunitymedia.com.

How would you describe your leadership style?

M: I think I can be any kind of leader that I need to be, depending upon the situation.

I tend to gravitate toward a type of leadership style that involves people and helping make decisions, and I can’t think of many things beyond student safety and security that wouldn’t let you have that opportunity to work with people and arrive at a decision.

If it’s something I need to make a decision on, I like to take input. If it’s something we’re responsible for and making a decision for, it’s something we need to work together to come to the best possible decision on.

What lessons did you learn as Assistant Superintendent of Secondary Schools in Douglas County that are applicable to Jeffco?

M: The lessons around stu-

Dan McMinimee dent growth and achievement.

The focus of schools and working with building principals to have great environments that allow students to be the best that they can be whatever that chosen situation is. Going to college, going on with your career, becoming a part of the military, attending a trade school; those are all viable options for students.

We need to make sure that we’re providing opportunities for them that line up with the next step that they’re going to take.

Running certain aspects of the district are things that I bring from my other experiences. Being a teacher, I understand what it’s like to be in a classroom with students, with lots of students from elementary school kids, to middle school kids, to high school students — I’ve taught every single level and I know that each one has its unique challenges.

Being in building administration, being an assistant principal and athletic director, I learned the specific roles that they play in creating a good atmosphere.

Being an assistant principal, I had a lot of the pieces that go into having a school: budget, discipline, curriculum, master scheduling. All those little things

that assistant principals do that create a great school, I was involved in all of those things during the time I was an AP. Having the opportunity to be a building principal in two different buildings in two different states gives you a lot of opportunity to hone your skills around decision-making and leading a group of students and staff toward a common goal.

I learned the value of personalizing your response to each building. Because each building is different and if you try to do a cookie-cutter approach to anything, it’s going to be a challenge because each building wants to have their mission and vision and wants to get kids to a place, and they want to do that on their own terms.

Those give me opportunities to step into this role, even though it’s on a much grander scale. My preferred working style is working individually with people around their challenges and making it a great place for kids.

What’s your perspective regarding the contention surrounding your hire?

M: From a personal standpoint it’s been a bit of a challenge. I’m used to having people Questions continues on Page 23

A recent phone poll indicates Wheat Ridge residents were generally supportive of a sales tax increase to help fund various city improvement projects.

City Council discussed the results at a special study session Wednesday June 25.

The city has been working in conjunction with Colorado Public Affairs firm Sewald Hanfling. The firm’s co-founders, R.D. Sewald and Joshua Hanfling, attended alongside Chris Keating of Keating Research.

Called the Community Outreach Initiative, the city is using the firm and the survey to ascertain the best way to move forward with a possible ballot measure asking voters to increase sales tax. The survey centered around a couple measures asking for a 1 percent or a half a percent increase.

Keating’s firm surveyed 600 people of varying demographics including political affiliation, age, gender and education level. Keating said he formed the pool from the 2010 voter list. The survey was conducted through a live telephone call that asked Wheat Ridge residents their opinions on city council, city services and whether they would be willing to see an increase in sales tax to fund city improvements.

Of those surveyed, 62 percent were above the age of 50 and the remaining 38 percent were between the ages of 18 and 49. Those surveyed indicated that they are in favor of the current makeup of the city council, the city’s parks and recreational services and the abundance of activities the city provides for youth and seniors.

Residents are not so happy with city’s handling of traffic and congestion.

With a baseline understanding of how residents view city government, Keating Research split the pool and asked 300 people if they would vote for a ballot measure that brought in an addition $3 million in tax revenue from a half a percent hike in sales tax. The money would go to: 1. Improvements to existing parks like Anderson park, and the outdoor pool and the recreation and senior centers; 2. Further revitalization of the 38th avenue corridor, including the southwest corner of 38th and Wadsworth; 3. Road, bridge and drainage system maintenance and improvements.

Of those surveyed, Keating stated 57 percent would either definitely vote yes or probably vote yes. 37 percent would probably or definitely vote no, with the remainder undecided The other 300 were asked a similar question except they were asked to consider a 1 percent tax increase for an additional $6 million in revenue. Two more projects were added to the list of improvements that the city could complete with the funds. The first was the addition of a new satellite recreation center in the east side of Wheat Ridge and the second would add bike lanes a pedestrian walkways.

Keating found that 58 percent said probably or definitely yes, compared to the 36 percent who would vote no. The remaining group was undecided.

Keating pointed out that young voters were overwhelmingly supportive of either scenario with 70 percent voting yes. Older voters neared an even split with just 47 percent saying yes.

Keating also made a correlation to the level of the voters’ education and their response.

62 percent of those with a Bachelor of the Arts were in favor of either scenario.

Those without bachelors came in at 49 percent in favor. Keating noted that those with college degrees tend to be younger which may explain the increased level of support among higher levels of education.

When asked why they would vote for the increase, 31 percent of yes voters said they wanted to improve the city of Wheat Ridge. Keating reported that 38 percent of no voters listed a dislike of taxes as reason for voting against the possible measure.

July 3, 2014

Dedicated gardeners grow together As Carol Ford makes her coffee in the quiet of early morning, she never fails to take in the view out her kitchen window — of a metal, neighborhood mailbox framed, these days, by draping trumpet vines and blooming roses along a weathered wood fence.

“I love to look at the flowers when I look at the mailbox,” she says. “It inspires me. … And Larry’s always out there, looking and pulling out the weeds.”

Larry Davis, 77, is always out there, snipping spent branches and blooms with his pocketknife and clearing away offending trespassers. So, too — but later in the day (Larry is the early riser) — is his wife, Deanna, 73, sitting on her stool, digging in the dirt, minding the beds with motherly care.

Come spring, just like the crocuses bursting through the ground after a season of hibernation, Larry and Deanna emerge to tend to their garden, a visual delight that has, over the years, persuaded some driving by to stop and roll down their windows to express appreciation.

“Oh,” Larry tells them, “if you like the front, you must see the back.”

And you must.

But before you step under the trellis that Larry built and past the small stone frog that says, “Welcome to our garden,” you should remember once there was nothing on this corner plot of land in the middle of tract-home suburbia.

“It just evolved. We just kept adding …,” Deanna says. “I don’t think either of us could do it alone.” She smiles. “We’re getting to the point we’re not going to be able to do it together.”

Larry and Deanna moved into their Highlands Ranch home in 1994. Their first planting: three locust trees.

“We wanted shade,” Deanna says.

Larry built the six-foot fence around the yard, a few times parking his car in the street at night and turning on the headlights so he could finish.

They both worked at the time, she as a Realtor, he as a tool design engineer for

Lockheed Martin, so they hired someone to plan the yard. And in 1995, the basic layout was planted.

They married, each for the second time, in 1996, in their back yard, with 100 guests. The pond for the goldfish and water lilies happened in 1999, the year they retired. Larry later built the spacious, graceful deck next to the pond and the oval bed in the front.

And, slowly but surely, the garden kept growing, reflecting not only the shared passion of creating something beautiful, but also their individual personalities. She likes neat and orderly. He likes unusual and a little messy.

Deanna, originally from the San Francisco area, brought the Japanese maples, dwarf evergreens and Asian-inspired contributions. “All the Japanese stuff,” she says, “is kind of my heart.”

Larry, from Iowa, brought the strange, unique plants like the rare-for-America hocksweed, and the full-bodied peonies, which in the Midwest are frequently planted in cemeteries. “They bloom around Memorial Day,” he says. “A lot of people plant peonies so there are flowers on the graves.”

Today, the gardens contain hundreds of varieties of plants. Deanna and Larry each spend about 20 hours a week caring for them.

Now, step under the trellis. This is some of what you’ll see: Raspberries, blackberries and grapes tumble along the back. Succulents root in lava rocks by the pond, inhabited by about 50 goldfish and several kinds of delicate

water lilies. A weeping cherry droops over a small path. Red and green Japanese maples. Graceful purple clematis. Pink penstemons. Purple salvia. Delicate coral bells.

A congregation of herbs — basil, fennel, parsley, rosemary, oregano, mint — grows in containers near the kitchen window. A water fountain that was a wedding gift. A bird bath that belonged to Deanna’s mother. A twisted Harry Lauder’s walking stick bush.

Roses.

“This one is like peppermint candy,” Larry says, cupping a red-and-whitestriped bloom in his hand.

The iron bench under the crabapple, where the yard bends, is one of Deanna’s and Larry’s favorite spots. The corner always seems to collect a breeze, and it’s good for enjoying the sights.

“It’s kind of a peaceful oasis,” Larry says of the back yard. “The birds like it.”

He points up to a branch in a locust tree.

“That little blue house has a family of wrens in it.”

The front, too, has its charm.

Blue delphiniums — a neighborhood favorite — stand guard near the trellis.

A rock garden holds origanum — nicknamed the wormy plant by Larry — and yellow Missouri evening primrose, whose blooms last just one day, trail along its border. Snapdragons in every color reseed every year.

There’s the fuzzy lamb’s ear the preschool children used to file down the street to feel. Larry’s new, small cactus garden next to the stairs. Deanna’s nine pots of coleus — with striking green and red leaves — on the stoop. And the ornamental pear tree by the driveway that blooms white, leafs out green, and, finally, turns a yellow-orange in the fall until the first storm strips the limbs bare.

“One year, for fun, we planted … the plant you like to eat?” Larry turns to Deanna.

“Artichoke.”

Larry nods and smiles. “People would

say, `What in the world is that?’”

“People still ask us about that one,” Deanna says.

“We just did it for fun,” Larry says. “Just once.”

The garden, essentially, contains many of life’s basic ingredients. Change.

Transformation. Anticipation. Joy. Death.

Rebirth. This particular one is a work of love that seems to assure a certain order in the universe.

“When you’re finished growing your kids,” Deanna says, “there is a nurturing quality to growing plants.”

“I enjoy just seeing it every day,” Larry says. “It seems like something new is in bloom every day … when the first little crocus comes up, just to see this come to life in the spring, and then all summer blooming.”

And even though the garden belongs to Larry and Deanna, it has been a gift shared — sometimes unknowingly, other times directly — with the neighborhood.

Suzi Miller, a gardener herself who lives down the street, has taken home cuttings of water lilies and fennel for her yard. She can spend hours talking plants with Larry and Deanna.

“For someone like me, there’s so much to look at,” she says. “It gives me inspiration. …”

Joan McGill has lived across the street for 18 years.

“It’s just a joy to look at their beautiful garden,” she says. “If we could all slow down enough to enjoy the beauty.”

We should.

Because if we did, Larry and Deanna would be sure to invite us in.

MJ manufacturing rules passed

By Hugh Johnson Wheat Ridge city council passed an ordinance on second reading Monday night imposing distance requirements on and restricting manufacturers of marijuana infused products to areas zoned for industrial use. As usual, the ordinance sparked debate on the effects of marijuana in the community.

What began as a moratorium on the issuance of licences for manufacturers of marijuana infused products has culminated in those manufacturing businesses receiving the same spatial limitations as their retail counterparts. Namely they must remain at least 3/4ths of a mile from each other and 1000 ft. from schools, campuses, daycare locations and drug treatment centers. On top of that they must adhere to these restrictions within industrial areas.

Councilmember Tim Fitzgerald of District Three voted against the ordinance calling it vindictive.

“The only thing I can see here is pure vindictiveness against marijuana,”

Fitzgerald said. “Now, I understand not everybody believes in marijuana but the citizens of Colorado voted (60 percent to 40 percent) to allow marijuana.”

Councilwoman Genevieve Wooden of District Four showed her support for the ordinance cautioning council to look closely at marijuana issues as the longterm effects the drug will have on the community are still unknown.

Jerry DiTullio of District One supported the measure, calling it common sense reform for those on both sides of the argument and those in the middle.

“There’s 20 percent of the people probably support this, support marijuana 110 percent would like no regulations,” DiTullio “There’s 20 percent of the folks in the community who would say no marijuana, ban it for life. I think this ordinance addresses the blend of the 60 percent that are in this community that want some common sense regulations that will work through it.”

The ordinance passed on a vote of seven to one with councilman Fitzgerald voting against.

Buyer’s Remorse Is Resulting in More Contract Terminations Than Usual

By JIM SMITH, Realtor ® Multiple offers are still very common because of the seller’s market we are in. The result was predictable. Buyers find themselves frantic to submit the winning bid, only to realize a few days later that maybe they settled for a less-than-perfect home or paid more than they should have for what they got.

Or perhaps a new listing came on the market that is more appealing, so the buyers use one of their many opportunities to terminate the contract so they can buy that better home.

As a broker, I have been on both sides of this dynamic. Just last month I had a condo listing that went under contract for $10,000 above the listing price with four competing offers. Naturally, my sellers accepted the highest offer, but the buyer terminated on the inspection deadline with an explanation that the condo was simply not big enough for their family.

Before accepting the next-best offer, I made a point of asking the

buyer’s agent about his clients so I could assess their likelihood of going all the way to closing. What do they do for a living? How big is their family? In short, is this 2bedroom condo perfect for their situation? I shared their responses with my seller before they accepted their offer.

The lesson for me was that in future multiple offer situations, I will ask those questions of the first buyer, instead of the second.

We are still in an extreme sellers market, where there is only one month’s supply of active listings.

What that means is that the number of current active listings is equal to the number of listings which are selling in just one month.

By contrast, many of the previous years were characterized by a buyer’s market. Until January 2013, the inventory was five months or more, reaching a peak of 19 months in January 2011.

During 2013, the inventory…

Campus gun ban effort ends Backers did not want effort to be political issue in the fall

By Vic Vela vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com An effort to ban the carrying of concealed handguns on college campuses ended June 26 out of supporters’ concerns that the issue could be used as a “political football” to impact the November election.

For months, backers of the campus gun ban had been collecting signatures in hopes of putting the issue to voters on this fall’s ballot. But supporters saw a political reality that caused them to pull the plug on their effort.

“In the last few weeks it became very evident that last year’s gun violence prevention legislation was going to be a major campaign issue in many candidate campaigns,” Boulder resident Ken Toltz, the founder of Safe Campus Colorado, said in an email to Colorado Community Media.

Toltz was referring to legislation that became law in 2012, including bans on highcapacity ammunition magazines and the creation of universal background checks on all gun sales and transfers.

The bills stirred passionate reaction from both gun enthusiasts and gun control advocates. The legislation passed the Democrat-majority legislature without Republican support.

Another bill that would have banned concealed weapons from being carried on

college campuses was killed by a Senate sponsor prior to it receiving a vote in that chamber.

It is already illegal to carry concealed guns on K-12 campuses.

Toltz said that the decision to stop the signature gathering effort was not related to any lack of public support for the campus gun ban.

“The signature gathering was very successful on a statewide basis as the average voter agreed that concealed guns on college campuses is a bad idea,” he said.

Last year’s gun legislation led to recall elections that ended up costing Democrats three seats in the state Senate — two Democrats lost in those recalls, while another resigned in the face of a recall.

Toltz did not answer directly when

asked if he received any pressure from Democrats or other interested parties to stop the effort. But he did acknowledge the politics of gun control.

“Being non-partisan, we decided that our issue was too important to let it become a political football,” he said.

Dudley Brown, who heads Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, said petition backers were wise to halt the signature gathering because another gun restriction effort would have “kicked the hornets’ nest.”

“I think they got phone calls from Democrats saying this is not a good thing for our candidates for office because this will motivate gun owners in droves,” Brown said. “Democratic operatives know that this is a dangerous thing for them to do, to tinker with this.”

Shrader leads GOP vote for sheriff

Funding partners

Candidate unopposed in November contest

By Clarke Reader

By Amy Woodward awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com Jeff Shrader was confident he would move on to the November ballot but results from the primary election put him well in the lead.

“I didn’t get nervous until 10 minutes to seven,” Shrader said who celebrated his early victory election night with family, friends and campaign managers. “It’s a little bit overwhelming.”

Shrader campaigned hard throughout Jeffco and once he received 58 percent of the delegate vote at the county assembly, he knew he was a shoe in. He held an early lead against his Republican opponent Jim Shires at 61.60 percent of the early total of 35,307 votes cast during the primaries. “It reflected what went on at the county as-

sembly,” Shrader said.

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

I campaigned hard,” he said. “I didn’t have any intentions of leaving anything on the table.”

With the emotional support of his family and friends, Shrader said he plans to regroup and turn his focus to the general election where he will campaign against two other opponents; Libertarian candidate Brett Almy and Republican write-in candidate, John Berry.

Daniels Fund helps keep Family Tree up and running creader@colorado communitymedia.com Family Tree does good work all over Jefferson County helping homeless families along the pathway to self-sufficiency and it is able to do this in large part due to funding from the Daniels Fund program.

Recently Family Tree announced that it has received a $150,000 Daniels Fund grant to support the Family Tree Homelessness Program, Women In Crisis — Domestic Violence Emergency Residential Services, and House of Hope — Homeless Emergency Residential Services programs.

“The Daniels Fund is our largest foundation partner,” said Scott Shields, Family Tree chief executive officer. “The funds we receive from them are a recognition of the breadth of services that we provide to those in the community.”

Debbie Pierce, vice president of media and community relations with the Daniels Fund, said there are nine focus areas for organizations that receive money from the fund and Family Tree meets the homeless care focus.

“They don’t just give the people they are helping a fish — they also teach them

Calm After the Storm - The Preferred Local Roofing Company for Many Insurance Companies, Hundreds of Agents, and Thousands of Coloradans - No Creepy Door Knockers

how to fish,” she said. “We support organizations that are helping people with self-sufficiency, not just assistance.”

According to Pierce, the Daniels Fund gave its first funding to Family Tree in 2001 and since then it has awarded more than $1 million to the organization in the years since.

The Daniels Fund support will help Family Tree to provide shelter services to 70 homeless women and 125 children at House of Hope. For the families receiving services, 50 percent of them will move into stable housing in efforts to sustain and improve their self-sufficiency.

Funds will also go to providing safe shelter to 485 women and children at Women In Crisis and offering a total of 60 family households with transitional housing through their Homelessness Program. Out of these households that move on to the Homelessness Program, 80 percent of them will move into stable housing and 50 percent will increase their income to sustain and improve their selfsufficiency.

Pierce said that recipients of money from the Daniels Fund have to demonstrate how the money was spent and how it helped the community but added that obviously Family Tree does a great job since it has received funds so often.

“We just want to see them succeed,” she said.

awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com Around 3,000 cyclists took to the road for a two-day bike ride in support of finding a cure for multiple sclerosis last weekend.

Organized by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, the Newmont Bike MS, which started and ended in Westminster, is the organization’s third-largest annual fundraising ride in the nation, with riders raising close to $4 million.

“It is a massive undertaking,” said Carrie Nolan, president of the Colorado-Wyoming Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. “It is the best-supported bike ride in Colorado, according to our cyclists.”

For the 2014 fiscal year, Nolan reported the society will invest $50 million in MS research. Chapters throughout the country, including the Colorado-Wyoming Chapter, contribute to this investment. In 2013, the Colorado-Wyoming Chapter was responsible for $1.5 million.

Funding research has been critical in furthering treatments for MS and maybe, one day, a cure “Today, we have 10 FDA-approved drugs to slow the progression of MS,” Nolan said.

Three more drugs have hit the market in the last three years.

For nationwide cycling events like the Newmont Bike Ride, local chapters rely heavily on volunteers and without them, these events wouldn’t be possible, Nolan said.

Richard and Suzanne Pershall of Golden are active volunteers in the chapter, with Richard leading the Gold Wings motorcycle crew that follows the route during

the Newmont Bike ride, in order to provide roadside assistance to cyclists who may need it. The Pershalls have been active in the bike ride since Suzanne was diagnosed with MS in 1996 at the age of 38.

“Suzanne and Richard are some of our top volunteers,” Nolan said. “They’re amazing.”

In the last few months, Richard has raised $50,220 for the society, and fundraising will continue beyond the bike ride until September. He has been the most positive influence for Suzanne since her diagnosis, and due to treatments, the prospect of a wheelchair is unlikely.

“I had no chance for feeling sorry for myself,” Suzanne said regarding the tremendous support received from her family.

Although she reports the first four years after her diagnosis were the most difficult, she has not had any flare-ups or exacerbation in 12 years. Her right hand remains numb and she experiences muscle spasms, but her worst symptom with MS is fatigue.

“There are days when you could stay in the bed all day long,” she said.

Every day, she feels that fatigue, even before she goes in to volunteer at the chapter on Tuesday afternoons.

Through it all, Suzanne’s treatments of Copaxone, an injection she administers once a day, have worked remarkably well for her. Looking at Suzanne, it is impossible to tell she has MS. It has been Suzanne’s personal experience that drives her and Richard to volunteer, ride and raise money for a cure.

“We’re so blessed, we just want everyone else to be, too,” Suzanne said. “Even if a cure is not found in my lifetime, maybe it will be in our children’s lifetime, or our grandchildren,” she said. “If it’s not in the cards for me, maybe it is for somebody else.”

GERARD HEALEY President MIKKEL KELLY Publisher and Editor GLENN WALLACE Assistant Editor VIC VELA State Desk Reporter

Keep ‘happy’ on list of things to be The other day I happened to be at the Park Meadows mall. As I was just the hired help for the day, my role was really just to drive the car, carry the bags, and pay at checkout time. While in Macy’s I had a pretty cool experience and thought I would share it with you here.

So as I sat in a chair and waited in the ladies shoe department — yes, I said it, the ladies shoe department — the background music caught my attention. Not so much because of the volume, but it was a very catchy tune that brought me back to the 1970s. The Partridge Family’s “Come on Get Happy.” And yes, some would say I just may be stuck in the 1970s regarding my musical preferences.

It was awesome enough that I recognized it, but as I looked around I noticed that I was not the only one in the store tapping my toes and singing along quietly to the music. You may be doing the same

right now, as you also know the song.

There were actually others singing a little out loud, some women dancing a little in their own space, a few other guys nodding their heads and tapping their toes to the beat, and I swear I thought that a “flash mob” was about to happen right there in Macy’s at any moment.

The song actually had a group of strangers in the store smiling, singing, and even dancing without one bit of encour-

agement other than the lyrics to the song.

How amazing and awesome is that?

If you have listened to local radio recently, you have also probably heard the song “Happy” by Pharrel. And you have probably heard it or have seen him perform it at an awards show or on television somewhere. I mean, it is like everywhere, and seems to be on the radio a lot. And why not? I have to admit that as much as I hear the song “Happy,” it actually makes me just a little bit happier than I was in the previous moment, maybe even tapping my toes and fingers a little bit to the tune as well whether I am working, walking, or driving.

So the question I have asked myself since my “Come on Get Happy” experience in Macy’s is this, “What else triggers Norton continues on Page 7

Easier to complain than think of solutions “… all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”

Some time ago, I wrote that all the complaining in the world wasn’t going to accomplish anything, so I was going to start focusing on always proposing a solution when I have a gripe. That is, in part, what my last three columns have been about: proposing changes that I think would make schooling better in America. But I’ve discovered, this year, as I’ve made solutions my focus, that it’s a whole lot easier to think of complaints, even to try to be funny about complaining, than it is to come up with solutions.

So it is comforting to me that even the great minds, the intellectual giants that founded our great republic 238 year ago

recognized that tendency of human behavior. If the Declaration of Independence were to be written today, in the vernacular, that line might read “People tend to live with it, because change is hard.”

But Friday we will be celebrating one of the grand solutions of all of history. It wasn’t enough for Jefferson and Adams and Franklin to live with the gripes; instead, they continued on with this line:

“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evince a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guard for their future security.”

Bold words. In today-speak, it would read “But enough is enough—we’ll take it from here.” That’s a bit harder than complaining, and it led to war—the ultimate “hard.” And, after that, a feeble form of government, which, on the brink of collapsing, was pulled clear by James Madison and George Washington 13 years later.

And, after that, a terrible civil war to test “whether any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.”

It has not been easy, this solution that Alcorn continues on Page 7

Wheat Ridge Transcript 7

July 3, 2014

Declaring a moratorium on Facebook fatigue I’m declaring a moratorium on Facebook.

My time spent on Facebook is as exhausting as it is exhilarating, perhaps even more so, with liking, sharing, commenting, and posting that can take hours a day.

I’m not kidding. And I never imagined this would be me.

I came to this realization after two things happened recently.

One was that I actually took a photo of an artfully arranged plate of sushi and sashimi … with the intent of posting it. At the time, I even qualified it by saying: “I don’t usually post photos of food.” Hmmm …

The other was that I found myself vaguebooking … you know, when someone posts an enigmatic statement such as: “Feeling sad today.” When I come across these statements from my friends, I am tempted to ask, “Why? Why are you sad today?” But I usually don’t. I figure that if I were supposed to know, I already would.

So when I posted last week, “Yes …

I’m stalling,” I was doing the same thing: vaguebooking an incident about which only a few people knew, and even fewer cared.

Please don’t misunderstand me – posting fabulous food (or cat or sunrise or charming children) photos and making enigmatic statements are what makes social media, well, social. It’s the competitive aspect of Facebook that’s wearing me out.

For example, I recently attended a writers conference that included casual lawn parties, intense class sessions, and appearances by renowned authors. The

professional photographer captured the activities, as well as many of the participants … with their mobile phones.

I could be sitting in the audience at a reading or chatting with a fellow writer, and before I even reached home that evening, photos were already uploaded to several Facebook pages. Then the race was on … who would be the first to “like” a post or photo, and, more importantly, how many likes and shares would it amass?

To assure that I was part of this massive Facebook-fest, I used the running feed down the side of my own page to see who was liking what. When I spotted someone from the conference (and there were many) liking or commenting on another attendee’s posts, I hurried to click on it myself, which then led me to like other posts that particular person was liking, and following those posts on to … well, you get what’s going on here.

Perhaps most revealing of all was that I became slightly obsessed with counting the number of likes on my own posts

or those in which others had tagged me.

And then I felt obligated to reciprocate by liking, sharing, and commenting on the posts of others. It seemed endless.

That’s when my Facebook fatigue set in.

So I’ve decided to pull the Facebook plug. Of course, it’s not reasonable to cut out Facebook entirely … I’ll just check in once, twice, or perhaps a few times a day.

I’ll only post pithy quotes, poetry, and the occasional comment or photo or link or status or activity or video or quiz. I’ll follow my news feed – briefly – just to see what’s going on with my friends, and their friends, and maybe their friends.

It won’t take that long.

Happiness requires seeking new challenges People who are happy seem to understand that happiness is not just about doing things you like, or doing what you’re good at, or doing things that give you pleasure. True happiness sometimes requires us to grow, to stretch our limits, to try new things, to seek out new adventures, and to be open to new self-identities and self-expressions.

You will not find happiness by engaging in more things that give you pleasure. The next movie you watch, the next dessert you eat and the next game your team wins is likely to provide you the most temporary of feel-good moments — and they will evaporate quickly.

The following is a list of the behaviors and attitudes that are more likely to give you an opportunity of finding an overall sense of happiness, contentment and peace of mind that are more likely to last: How successful do your close relationships feel to you? Are you able to let other people in so you can feel vitally attached and engaged with them? Are your responses more pro-relationship (empathy, compassion, sharing, employing conflict-reducing and repair-oriented communication) or anti-relationship (temper outbursts, mistrust, defensiveness, self-righteousness, vindictiveness)?

A successful relationship inspires you to both give and receive love.

Looking at the totality of your life, what are you most proud of? Create as extensive a list as you can on this question. Overall, are you on your own side? Are you friendly to yourself? Does your inner self-talk build you up more, or tear you down? Do you

happiness?”

Some of us, me included, can get so caught up in our busy-ness and our business that we completely forget about being happy, or at least let it slip through our fingers from time to time. Maybe it’s a song, maybe it’s a workout, maybe it’s a good book, a smile, a hug, an accomplishment, skiing, golfing, hiking, a friend, a child, a feeling of love, being loved, and being in love, and hundreds of other possibilities that bring us back to that feeling of happiness and joy. What are your triggers?

Alcorn Continued from Page 6

Thomas Jefferson offered us so long ago.

Indeed, just last week we had the opportunity to engage in that solution via the primary elections. Those who chose to participate made an investment in that solution. And, if you don’t think that part of the solution is “hard,” you obviously have an unlisted number that the candidates could not reach you through.

But, kidding aside, I would encourage you to honor the Founders’ solution this Fall by participating again in the great

like yourself? Trust yourself? Accept yourself? Believe in yourself?

The measure of having good relationships with other people is whether you have an accepting and trusting relationship with yourself. Are you engaged in work that you find meaningful, and that uses your talents and abilities? Finding meaning and value in our day-to-day activities will give us a feeling of mastery and accomplishment — and our activities will not feel like work. They will feel like self-fulfillment. In which areas of life do you express yourself creatively? Do you have an outlet for your own creative expression?

Value new experiences over comfortable ones, at least occasionally. Be willing to sometimes be uncomfortable in order to stretch your identity and give yourself an opportunity to engage in new experiences, adventures and challenges. When something bad happens to you, you must be able to regulate your feelings so that negative events do not define you. What if you knew that your life was going to work out even if your children did not do well in school or your investments wind up losing

“Come on Get Happy,” “Happy,” “Shiny Happy People,” “Hakuna Matata,” “Don’t Worry Be Happy” and “Joy to the World” are just a few of the songs that work for me when it comes to adding a little more pep to my step when I hear them. How about you? Is it a song or something else that triggers happy thoughts and gets you back on the happy track of life?

I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we remember to balance our busy-ness with happiness it will be a better than good week for sure. So come on … get happy.

money? Successfully being able to handle difficult challenges, as well as loss, hardship and adversity, says a lot about how resilient you are, and how quickly you can bounce back from disappointments. What changes would you like to make in the following areas of your life: love; profession; the use of money; home; relationship with your children/parents; relationship with extended family members; relationship with friends; health; creative expression; adventure; play/fun; romance; sex; exercise and diet? How important would these

changes be for you? Are there any that you would be willing to begin this week — and commit to continuing?

Ask yourself, is Mark Udall, with his pro forma “war on women” ad, part of the problem, or part of the solution? How about Corey Gardner, whose Liquid Natural Gas Export bill passed the House last week — problem, or solution? Ed Perlmutter? Don Ytterberg? Beauprez, Hickenlooper? If you’re tired of politics not working, then stop voting to put the same politicians in charge.

Tag-team cancer fighters ACS works with local King Soopers to raise funds, awareness

By Clarke Reader

creader@colorado communitymedia.com The American Cancer Society recently celebrated those fighting the good fight against the deadly disease with its annual Relay for Life event, an event that wouldn’t be possible without the assistance of local King Soopers.

According to Michelle Bisbee, Relay for Life specialist with the ACS, the event would not be nearly as successful as it has been without King Soopers and its employees.

“We’ve been really fortunate to have King Soopers behind us,” she said. “The relay really benefits be-

cause they challenge their stores to get employees to participate.”

The King Soopers sixth district includes the western Denver area, and it is the stores in this particular district that have really come through for the West Metro Relay for Life, according to ACS Senior Director of Community Engagement, Scott Dishong.

“King Soopers has worked to make sure they have teams and employees in the race and this year had a company goal of raising $30,000 for us, which they also did,” he said.

The West Metro Relay, which was held on June 20 at Red Rocks Community College, had around 40 teams with 236 participants and King Soopers fielded 24 teams and 126 participants, according to Bisbee.

Dishong said that money raised at the Relay for Life goes to research and free programs for cancer patients all over the metro area. The ACS is cur-

rently funding 869 grants nationwide totaling more than $446 million and a total of 15 research grants are in Colorado, totaling more than $7.1 million.

“It’s interesting to see all the things being done to fight cancer right here in Denver,” he said. “We have programs like the Road to Recovery which gives newly diagnosed people rides to their treatment appointments.”

Another program that the money goes to is Patient Navigators, which provide guidance for cancer patients, their families and caregivers to help them through the cancer treatment experience, with a focus on identifying and eliminating barriers to cancer care for the medically underserved.

“We’re so grateful to have them standing with us in this fight,” Bisbee said.

Elder-abuse reporting law goes into effect Financial institutions must notify about suspicions

By Amy Woodward

awoodward@colorado communtiymedia.com Colorado’s first mandatory reporting bill for elder abuse took effect on July 1. The new bill requires any person who witnesses or suspects elder abuse in adults 70 or older to make a report to a local law enforcement agency.

Until now, Colorado was one of three states that did not make it a requirement for persons to report elder abuse. Since 1991, similar bills regarding mandatory reporting for elder abuse in Colorado failed seven times before the measure passed in 2013.

The Senate bill, sponsored by former Sen. Evie Hudak, D-Westminster, extends the definition of “any person” required to report abuse to include clergy and financial institutions.

“It’s only been voluntarily up to now, and especially in the financial industry it’s going to have an impact because they’ve never been mandatory reporters before,” Hudak said.

The Colorado Bankers Association, a trade group for 152 banks in the state, was part of the task force

organized by Hudak to look at costs to implement the bill, which were estimated to be around $5 million.

“We have really always operated with our customers’ best interest in mind. This requirement is not offputting or isn’t something we didn’t want to do,” said Jeff Asher, compliance officer for FirstBank. “It’s a very positive bill for the industry. Across the nation it is a fairly standard expectation.”

Other mandated reporters, such as clergy, already have experience in this area, due to the mandatory reporting bill for child abuse.

“Elder abuse is a huge, huge problem in our country,” said Scott Storey, senior chief at the First Judicial District Elder Abuse Unit in Jefferson County. “It is under-reported, underinvestigated, under-prosecuted.”

During a seminar at the Jeffco DA’s office on June 25, Storey reported that elder abuse has grown 150 percent in the last 10 years, with an estimated $2.9 billion in annual financial loss by victims of elder financial abuse.

“I suspect it’s more than that because this crime is under-reported,” Storey said.

The Jeffco DA’s office is the only DA’s office which has an elder abuse unit. Since January of this year, law enforcement agencies have been receiving training throughout the state

on how to recognize the signs of elder abuse. Through training, officers are being told to stop asking victims if they want to prosecute or if they want the suspect arrested.

Under the new bill, police shall notify a human-services agency and a district attorney’s office within 24 hours of receiving an abuse report.

Officers do not need the victim to sign a complaint or sign a commitment to prosecute. Victims do not have to agree with any charges that may be filed against the person or persons who may have abused them financially or through neglect.

While reports to law enforcement cannot be made anonymously, the bill does have an immunity privilege attached for those who report possible abuse, in order to alleviate any fears of civil suits or liabilities for damage in civil action or criminal prosecutions.

Mandatory reporters, including the public, are urged to contact law enforcement if they suspect or witness elder abuse.

“You don’t have to be right,” Storey said. “It’s better to be safe than sorry.”

Although it is not the intention to focus efforts on those who fail to make a report, willfully failing to make a report could result in a class 3 misdemeanor, up to $750 in fines and up to six months in jail.

Skier’s sister had her own downhill run

FAC dives into ‘La Belle Époque’ in summer exhibit

By Clarke Reader

creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com

P

aris has been the center of more than one artistic explosion over the years, and generation after generation have journeyed to the city to participate in their own pivotal epoch.

One of the most well known artistic eras is the avant-garde “La Belle Époque,” which arose during the turn of the 19th century and introduced artists like Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Edouard Vuillard, Pierre Bonnard, Juan Gris, and Mary Cassatt.

The Foothills Arts Center is giving art lovers a chance to revisit this wonderful age of art with its exhibit, “ Toulouse-Lautrec and La Vie Moderne: Paris 1880-1910.”

The exhibit will be at the FAC, 809 15th St. in Golden, through Aug. 17. The gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday noon to 5 p.m.

“We are excited to have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bring these rare works of ToulouseLautrec and his contemporaries to downtown Golden and present art at an international level in a local and intimate venue,” said Mary Ellen Williams, Executive Director of FAC. The exhibit highlights the work of ToulouseLautrec while featuring works from 94 of his contemporaries and taps into the various different avant-garde movements, from Realists, Naturalists and Symbolists to Nabis, and Incohérents.

“You get to see the great variety of the works, the subjects, the colors,” said Marianne Lorenz, curator of FAC. “Almost all of the works we have on display are paintings and works on paper.”

Lorenz added that the work of Tolouse-Lautrec and his contemporaries forged the way for future artists like Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons by erasing the boundaries between high art and popular culture.

The works come from private and public collections in Holland and France in an array of media: paintings, watercolors, drawings, rare zinc shadow puppet silhouettes, and illustrated programs for the famous Chat Noir cabaret shadow

theatre. The lenders include the Gemeentemuseum, The Hague; the Musee d’Ixelles, Belgium; the Stichting Het Kattenkabinet, Amsterdam; and Private Collections in The Netherlands and France.

To spread information about the artists and the era they lived in, FAC will be hosting several speWHAT: Toulouse-Lautrec and La Vie cial events Moderne: Paris 1880-1910 throughout WHERE: Foothill Arts Center, the exhibit’s 809 15th St., Golden stay, includWHEN: Through Aug. 17 ing lectures Tuesday - Saturday: 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. from Lorenz, Sunday: noon to 5 p.m. tours and COST: Non-members: $15 adults, $10 film showseniors, $5 youth, children under 10 free Members: $5 adults, $5 seniors, $3 youth, ings of children under 10 free “Moulin INFORMATION: 303-279-3922 or www.

Rouge” and foothillsartscenter.org “Midnight in Paris.”

One of the more unique events will be Absinthe in the Era of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec at the Golden Moon Speakeasy, 1111 Miner’s Alley. The event is 6-8 p.m. on July 31.

Stephen Gould, Proprietor and Distiller at Golden Moon Distillery and Golden Moon Speakeasy, will speak about the history and folklore of absinthe during the 19th century in France and Lorenz will discuss the culture and significance of Paris at the fin de siècle (turn of the century).

Lorenz described the time in French history as extremely lively and that shows up in artwork produced during these years.

“This is a great opportunity for people to come in and see some fabulous original prints,” she said. “We work really hard here at Foothills to show different kinds of art and contextualize them — these are beautiful things that you won’t see elsewhere.”

Coloradans are familiar with the impressive sports career of Jeremy Bloom, the three-time world champion skier, two-time Olympian, 11-time World Cup gold medalist and member of the United States Skiing Hall of Fame. And when he wasn’t tearing up the slopes, Bloom was burning up the gridiron as a CU Buff and briefly as an NFL player.

But despite all of Jeremy’s sports accolades, his sister, Molly, was leading a quieter yet more colorful life as the owner/ organizer of a high-stakes poker game for the rich and famous, including actors Tobey Maguire, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Yankees star Alex Rodriguez and billionaire Guy Laliberté, CEO of Cirque du Soleil.

“Molly ran her exclusive, top-secret, bicoastal poker ring for several years, keeping the details secret from even her closest friends and family — but now she’s finally showing her hand in her memoir, `Molly’s Game,’” which was released June 24, according to a story in The New York Post.

Molly Bloom grew up in Loveland, with her dad, a Colorado State University professor, mom and two brothers.

“Months later, Bloom was heading to one of her games when a player texted her that the feds had crashed it looking for her,” the Post story says. “Bloom fled to Colorado, where she refused to talk to investigators, which resulted in her assets being frozen.

“The former high-roller lived a quiet life in Colorado until two years later, in 2013, when she moved back to LA and shortly after got a knock on her door from the FBI. “She was charged, along with 30 others, with participating in two RussianAmerican organized-crime enterprises engaged in gambling and money laundering. (She says she had no idea about her players’ illicit dealings.)”

Molly, who was dubbed “the Poker Princess” by news outlets during the trial, avoided prison and was sentenced to one year of probation earlier this year.

“If I had to do it all over, would I choose the same path?” she writes. “My answer is yes, a thousand times yes. I had a grand adventure.”

Corner House closes

The Corner House, the Jefferson Park eatery founded by Seattle Fish Co. “schoolmaster” James Iacino and celebrated chef Matt Selby (Vesta Dipping Grill, Steuben’s, Ace), closed June 21, according to a story in Westword.

Within less than a year of opening, Selby split from the neighborhood eatery for unclear reasons. Selby is now the top toque at Central Bistro in LoHi. Restaurant consultant and marketing maven Leigh Sullivan, who handles the restaurant’s public relations, became a part-owner, but according to Westword, the investment was too little too late.

The space has been taken over by an unnamed “up-and-coming” chef, who will reopen with a new concept.

Ted’s salutes the bison

Ted’s Montana Grill restaurants are joining their fans to pay tribute to the ingredients, meals and hospitality that define the Great American West. The restaurants are celebrating a Great American Summer with an online photo contest, signature burgers and a campaign to elect

bison as the national mammal at votebison.org.

“Bison are a true American icon that once thundered across our Great Plains,” said George W. McKerrow, who, along with media mogul Ted Turner, co-founded Ted’s Montana Grill and pioneered the effort to preserve our country’s bison herds. “This summer, we are celebrating authentic American dining by shining a spotlight on all the ways local mavericks enjoy our beef and bison burgers.”

Now through July 14, entries and nominations for the “Bite Your Bison” photo contest may be submitted on the Ted’s Montana Grill Facebook page, or via Instagram photos and tweets with the hashtag #BiteYourBison. Photo entries also will be accepted at bigskyspirit@tedsmontanagrill.com. Three fans with the most votes will enter the finals, where a restaurant voting panel will choose the grand prize winner of a Big Green Egg barbecue.

There are three Ted’s Montana Grills in the metro area: Larimer Square, Westminster and Lakewood.

State Senate control rests with Jeffco voters

By Vic Vela

But whether Republican voters on June 24 helped or

hindered their party’s chances of winning two key state Senate races in the fall depends on with whom one speaks.

Republican voters selected the two more conservative candidates in primaries for races in state Senate district’s 19 and 22 – Laura Woods and Tony Sanchez.

Woods will run against Sen. Rachel Zenzinger in a district race that includes Arvada and parts of Westminster.

Sanchez takes on Sen. Andy Kerr in a district that covers Lakewood.

Woods and Sanchez’s views on issues are to the right of the political scale of the men who they handily defeated in the primary, Mario Nicolais and Lang Sias.

The Jeffco races will be key in determining which party has control of the Senate, where Democrats have a single vote edge.

But Republican primary voters did not choose wisely in a swing county like Jefferson, says one political analyst.

“It makes it extremely more difficult, bordering on impossible for Republicans to take the state Senate,” said Eric Sondermann, an independent political analyst.

But a key player in conservative politics said that analysts overvalue moderate Republicans.

“I reject the ludicrous notion that moderation is the key to victory,” said Dudley Brown, president of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners. “If that were the case, we would have President Bob Dole, President John McCain – I shudder at the thought – and President Mitt Romney.”

Woods, who owns a court reporting business, helped gathered petitions to force a recall election against Evie Hudak last year. The former District 19 senator resigned her seat rather than face a recall election, which was spurred by her support of gun control legislation.

Zenzinger – who ran Hudak’s successful re-election campaign in 2012 – was selected by district Democrats to replace Hudak in a district that has an equal party affiliation split.

Woods is pro-life, is against gay marriage and supports school vouchers. She was endorsed by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners in the primary, which sent out mailing pieces that accused her opponent of taking campaign contributions from a “liberal homosexual activist.”

When asked if she will be able to run on a conservative platform and expect to win in this divided district, Woods answered in the affirmative “Voters all across our district — Republican and Democrat alike — know that something is wrong,” Woods said in an emailed response. “Energy prices are going up, healthcare costs are going up, the federal government is interfering more and more in local educational matters, and our ability to make decisions about what is best for ourselves and our families is being taken away. “ Zenzinger congratulated Woods on her victory on June 24 and said that voters will have a clear choice come November.

“I encourage the voters to spend time examining our merits and decide who has the proven abilities to fill this

leadership role,” she said. “I plan to emphasize my record of collaboration and my record of civic accomplishments, which I think will clearly elevate me in the minds of voters.”

But Sondermann doesn’t think Zenzinger has anything to worry about, come the fall.

“I think Rachel Zenzinger went from being a 50-50 shot to being a prohibitive favorite and close to being able to plan a victory party,” Sondermann said. “It’s a swing district. It can go red or blue, but it will not go crazy. This woman they nominated will not appeal to voters.”

Like Woods, Sanchez is pro-life and supports less government and fewer taxes. Republicans hope that Sanchez – whose family is from Mexico and El Salvador – can appeal to Latino voters in the general election.

“What really made us stand out (in the primary) was we made it really clear where we stood out on a lot of issues,” Sanchez said. “Government needs to get out of our lives. I kept stressing that.”

Sanchez said that he thinks Kerr has vulnerabilities. He is critical of Kerr for being the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit that challenges the constitutionality of the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. He’s also reminding voters of Kerr’s support for last year’s failed Amendment 66, which would have raised taxes to fund education spending.

“It’s those kinds of pocket book issues that people are wanting to hear about right now,” Sanchez said.

Sanchez was also backed by RMGO, which attacked Nicolais’ support of civil unions in direct mailing pieces.

The combination of a no-holds-barred gun group and the possibility of social issues entering the campaign leads Kerr to think that things could get ugly in the fall.

Kerr said that when he ran against Ken Summers in the Senate race four years ago, “everyone I talked to said it was a great campaign that focused on issues, and that it was forthright and respectful.

“I was hopeful we would have another campaign like that, but I’m thinking that won’t be the case this time around,” Kerr said. “I’m disappointed that a small number of extremists have put forward a candidate (like Sanchez).”

Sondermann doesn’t like Sanchez’s chances.

“That was going to be a tough district for Republicans to begin with, now it’s going to be virtually impossible,” he said.

But Senate Minority Leader Bill Cadman, R-Colorado Springs, thinks candidates like Sanchez and Woods “are more reflective of the values and principles that Coloradans hold and that’s going to be proven in this election.”

“You can label anything you want,” Cadman said when asked if he had any concern that Sanchez and Woods might be too conservative for district voters. “But the reality is the Democratic Party is letting some extreme, out of state liberals lead them away from the people who elected them to govern.

“And the people are paying attention and they are rejecting it.”

World Cup Knockout round breakdown Who has the goods to win the world’s best tournament?

By Daniel Williams

dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com If you are caught up in the World Cup you’re not alone.

While soccer in the United States usually ranks somewhere between Nascar and Frisbee golf, America has joined the rest of the world and has become soccer crazy.

But Team USA is hardly a favorite in this tournament. Actually, of the 16 teams who advanced to the Knockout Round America has the longest shot odds-wise to go on and win the World Cup (the US is 100-1 to win the World Cup).

So while the US is the ultimate Cinderella story with little shot to actually win the World Cup, we wanted to give you a breakdown of who from the remaining 16 teams can actually go on and make history.

The Heavyweights: Brazil (3-1) is the obvious favorite to win this tournament and they have been so from day one.

Not only are they the host country and the winningest World Cup team of all-time, but they also have Neymar playing at a very high level and he has been the tournament’s best player to date.

Germany (4-1) is a powerhouse — big, physical and strong

People are coming together all over the country to watch their favorite countries (or second favorite after USA) compete in the World Cup for what is perhaps the world’s grandest sports achievement. Photo by Dan Williams — and has as good of a shot to win this tournament as anyone left in the field. Although they didn’t overwhelm Team USA and Ghana in group play they still very easily won the group and look like they are gaining steam. But the Germans have not won the World Cup since 1990.

Argentina (4-1) may not have the same expectations as Brazil and Germany in this World Cup but they do have the world’s best player on their roster. And when Lionel Messi gets going he is lit-

erally unstoppable. Messi has his legacy on the line in this World Cup and I wouldn’t bet against him.

The Middleweights: Netherlands (7-1) has a reputation as being a second-tier elite team but their play over the last couple World Cups would say that they are in fact an elite group.

They were perhaps the best overall team in group play and they were runner up to Spain in the 2010 World Cup. This team in underrated.

France (8-1) is maybe the best remaining team that no one is talking about. They have the reputation as a world power but they don’t have as many special players as they have had in years past. However, these no-name Frenchman could quickly become famous with another deep World Cup run (France won it all in 1998 and then lost in a shootout in 2006).

Belgium (20-1) has never finished better than fourth in the World Cup but this could be

their best national team ever. And while Americans were happy to draw Belgium instead of Brazil, Germany or Argentina, beating Belgium might be just as tough.

With 20-1 odds Belgium might be a team worth throwing a few bucks behind.

The Dark Horses: Columbia (25-1) has had some good teams in the past but has never advanced past the quarterfinals. And while it may be a stretch to consider Columbia a team who can win the tournament, it’s certainly not a stretch to think this team is good enough to upset a couple higher ranked teams. Moreover, Columbia has the best goal dances of any team in the world (look them up).

Costa Rica (50-1) has some magic in their cleats this World Cup. While they had only one Knockout Round win in their country’s history, they have put together the tournament’s best resume to date. They beat Uruguay and Italy, before drawing with England. They then beat Greece to advance to the elite eight. Watch out for these guys.

Switzerland (80-1) is not getting much love internationally but crazier things have happened in World Cup play. They have actually made it to the quarterfinals three times in their history, the only problem is that the last time they did it was 1954. Switzerland is a true long shot but has shown that they can compete with some of the top teams in the world.

A guide to the best hikes of the summer From quick and easy to more channenging trails and waterfalls

By Daniel Williams

dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com Take a hike.

No, really. Colorado is known for a lot of different things and one of those is it has some of the best hiking trails in the country.

Right in our own backyards — literally for some — are some of the best hiking opportunities that are just a handful of minutes from the heart of Denver.

It wasn’t easy, and we are definitely tired, but we trekked through a handful of trails and compiled a list of just some hiking adventures that you and your family can enjoy on a perfect summer day.

Hiking is the triple-threat; it works out your body, you can do it with friend and family, and it is totally free (minus a couple bucks in gas).

If you do it safe, and you do need to always be safe and prepared before your hike, it can be fun and very rewarding once you reach your destination.

But before we give you our list of local trails here is your day hiking checklist: -Map and/or compass -Sunscreen -Proper attire; vest, jacket, gloves, pants and a hat -Water AND at least one day worth of food -Matches/lighter, as well as a flashlight -Pocket knife -First aid kit -Cell phone for emergency -And let a friend or family member know your hiking destination/plans And now that you are prepared for your hike we have prepared a list of trails that are NOT two hour drives, but instead a list of local hiking trails that are mere 20 minutes away in some cases.

Here is our list: Mount Falcon — Called a “14er training ground” by many, Mount Falcon is an

Red Rocks is not only one of America’s iconic venues but it is also a perfect just-outside-the-city hiking destination for families and even more advanced hikers. Photo by Dan Williams awesome day hiking destination and it is just minutes from downtown Morrison.

The area features several trails that can be tied together creating a 3.7 mile journey that features a lookout point that gives you arguably the best view of Denver and Red Rocks that can be found anywhere. Very family friendly and if you pack a lunch there are perfect rest stops to stop and relax.

Red Rocks - Speaking of Red Rocks, everyone has been to a concert at the historic venue but few people think of the park when considering their hiking options. Red Rocks is the perfect day hiking destination for locals to bring their out-of-town guests to impress them as you follow Trading Post Trail around the park and around 10 enormous Red Rock formations. You can complete the trail in just over one hour — and maybe stick around to see Big Head Todd &

the Monsters.

Mount Galbraith - A lesser-known hiking option, Mount Galbraith, is located just a quick drive up Golden Gate Canyon. Cedar Gulch Trail and Nightbird Gulch Trail are the two trailheads that make up The Mount Galbraith Loop. About four miles in length, your trip will feature ridiculous views of Denver and Golden. The elevation change makes this one a little more challenging but it’s still family friendly.

Maxwell Falls - This Evergreen destination is popular for all the right reasons.

Evergreen has a charm all its own, but Maxwell Falls offered a variety of different terrain, as well as a one mile, three mile and four mile hiking option. But all roads lead to a beautiful cascading waterfall which is well worth even the four mile journey.

Bring family and friends, and maybe your fishing pole too.

Chatauqua Park - This Boulder locale is an underrated day hiking experience.

Take Chatauqua Trail which will lead you to three different Flatiron trails which will all provide you with views of Flatirons that Ansel Adams would be jealous of. The park is super-family friendly but that also means it could be crowded during the weekend.

Boulder has many hiking options but give Chatauqua a chance.

Castlewood Canyon State Park - For those headed east instead of west but still want a day hiking experience Castlewood Canyon is an ideal fit. You can make your like as long or as short as you choose depending on what side of the park you park on, but the reward is a magnificent waterfall that is just outside the metro area. The next closest Denver waterfall is at Casa Bonita, so plan accordingly and bring your camera too.

Getting worse before they can get better The Denver Nuggets just don’t get it.

During the NBA Draft June 26 and leading up to the draft the Nuggets were one of the most active teams making several trades.

So should we raise our expectations for the 2014-2015 Nuggets? Personally, I wouldn’t raise Denver’s expectations for the next 20142024 seasons.

While I can appreciate Denver general manager Tim Connelly’s wheeling-and-dealing mentality the Nuggets are going nowhere without a true superstar of their own.

But getting a NBA superstar on your roster is definitely easier said than done.

There are about eight-to-12 superstars in the NBA and 30 teams, and even if the Nuggets were willing to pony up a blank check, that still wouldn’t lure a superstar free agent to Denver.

Over the last 30 years of the NBA only eight different teams have won NBA Championships. That list is filled with Lakers titles, Celtics titles, Bulls titles and Heat titles, meaning cities like Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago and Miami are clearly where top NBA talent chooses to reside.

Moreover, the Nuggets are definitely not the Denver Broncos. Tim Connelly is hardly John Elway, an established icon of his own running a proven championship product that is respected around the entire league.

Because of the Broncos’ rich tradition, Denver is a coveted destination for NFL free agents and the team can literally land any player they want because of their credentials.

The Nuggets on the other hand have no history besides owning a few of the worst records in NBA history and have a long list of draft flops.

The Nuggets cannot go out and land topflight free agents because NBA players don’t see Denver as a winning destination and why would you go to Denver if Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago or Miami covet you?

The biggest fish the Nuggets have ever landed in free agency was Kenyon Martin, who received a max contract from Denver during the 2003-2004 season. The only problem was the fact that the Nuggets had to pull the entire deal off in a sign and trade in which they had to give up three future first round picks.

Because of that Denver was never really

ever able to add enough pieces to get over the hump and in the end Martin’s big contract and under-production held the Nuggets back.

Even the one time the Nuggets “won” in free agency, they were actually big losers in the big picture.

So if Denver wants to get really good, they are going to have to get really bad first. While no NBA superstar free agent has ever picked Denver as a landing spot you can certainly still acquire a superstar talent with a little luck and a lot of losses by drafting one.

While the Spurs are again NBA champions and perhaps the model franchise in all professional sports the Nuggets need to use the Oklahoma City model as they plan to rebuild.

The Thunder had to be really bad for a long time before they became really good.

But as bottom feeders they positioned themselves for top picks. And starting in 2007, because they were so bad the year before, OKC landed Kevin Durant with the No. 2 overall pick.

The following year they drafted Russell Westbrook at No. 4 overall and one year after Westbrook the Thunder drafted James Harden No. 3 overall. OKC went from the league’s worst team to having a team with three of the top 12 players in the NBA on their roster.

The Thunder had to get really really bad before they got really good and the Nuggets finishing around .500 and trying to add on to a team that will never be destined to compete for a NBA championship is a waste of time.

The Nuggets need a full-on demolition followed up by a true rebuild. Fans are willing to accept being bad for several years if there is a legitimate plan for getting good. So let’s root for the Nuggets next season — to be big losers.

Judge upholds state’s gun laws

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A federal judge on June 26 rejected a court challenge to gun restrictions that took effect last year, ruling that the new statutes do not infringe on the Second Amendment right to bear firearms, as was alleged by the plaintiffs.

The lawsuit was filed by several county sheriffs in Colorado, along with citizens and businesses.

The judge’s decision means that the controversial 2012 laws that created universal background checks on gun sales and transfers and banned high-capacity ammunition magazines will remain on the books.

The ruling was a victory for gun-control advocates who believe that the laws help to prevent the kind of mass bloodshed that occurred during the 2012 Aurora theater shooting, which prompted the

legislation.

“Today is an important day in the fight to keep our communities and families safe from gun violence,” Rita Schweitz of the Colorado Coalition Against Gun Violence said through an emailed statement.

But plaintiffs told reporters following the court ruling that they plan to appeal the judge’s decision.

“We believe (the judge) got it wrong as a matter of law,” said attorney Dave Kopel. “We think we have a very strong case in the Court of Appeals.”

The state of Colorado and Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper — who signed the bills into law — were named as defendants in the lawsuit.

Chief U.S. District Court Judge Marcia S. Krieger ruled that the law that bans ammunition magazines that carry more than 15 rounds “is not severe” in how it impacts a person’s ability to keep or bear firearms for self-defense purposes.

Questions Continued from Page 1

like me and it’s difficult when they don’t, and they don’t even give you a chance to have that opportunity to get to know them. But that said, I also recognize that a lot of the things that were said were not directed at me, they were directed at the situation.

My experience in hiring superintendents is that you usually have five or six candidates that you start out with in a closed-door situation because those candidates want to have their anonymity protected, they have other jobs where they build relationships with other communities and they don’t want to risk that, if they’re not going to have an opportunity to be the sole person who’s going to be the superintendent.

I also went through the process just like everybody else. In general, Jeffco’s a great place; why wouldn’t there be applications from across the United States? And so they did their interviews, I did my best and I’m not going to apologize for being the sole candidate.

The process is owned by the board of education and my job was to step in and compete and I did that and I’m sitting here today.

In this particular case, a lot of things around student achievement, growth, post-secondary and workforce readiness, and responsible citizens, those are the five big goals that I understand the board is looking to improve.

My job becomes: How can I do that?

How do you feel working with a polarized board?

M: My job is to try and work with the whole board around getting decisions that are going to move the district forward. Be it all five people are on the same page or all five people are not, I think that strengthens the decision needed. My job will be to try and work with them moving forward, and if you’re 5-0 every single vote, that doesn’t leave a lot of opportunity to talk about the diverse viewpoints that are represented in any district.

It’s a sign of our times that there are school boards across the nation with a similar dynamic.

We’ve got to work together and find a way to work together, so that’s going to be the work that I’ve got to do.

I would like to reach a point where we can have conversations where we can disagree without being disagreeable, where we can reach some decisions that are best for kids that we can all agree on, but I recognize that’s going to be an uphill climb.

What are your main priorities for the 20142015 school year?

M: First of all, we talked previously about the board’s goals, and those are really what the charge of the superintendent is, to create a system that is going to reach those goals and work with people to create a system that’s going to reach those goals.

Our job is to make sure we set up systems to help them (teachers, staff, schools) do their job.

My goal for this next year is make sure I un-

derstand the system. I’m big on context and I think there was some criticism that I’m going to come in and have this plan, and do one, two, three, four, five things — that’s not the best way to work from my experience.

The best way to work is you come in, see what’s happening in the system, and you adjust the work moving forward for the benefit of students based on input.

The first thing is about building context and developing relationships, then the next thing is to look at the systems we currently have and look at how do those systems align with the goals we want to have in the end.

Currently, Jeffco’s relationship with the teachers’ union is rocky at best. What is your opinion of that and how do you propose to bridge the gap between administrators, the district and teachers?

M: The relationship with the teachers association, the first thing you have to do is meet the people and build a relationship and then try to decide some mutual goals we want to move towards and move together towards those goals.

Having everybody understand why you made that decision, how that decision was arrived at and what other viewpoints were considered, you have to try to do that as much as you can so teachers understand that.

Obviously my relationship with the professional organizations in this district is going to be huge. Setting up a system for them for feedback on what’s working well in the system and how we can continue to improve is going to be a critical piece of working with teachers.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) You’re still in a favorable goalsetting mode. However, you might need to be a little more realistic about some of your aims. Best to reach for what is currently doable. The rest will follow.

VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) A setback is never easy to deal with. But it could be a boon in disguise. Recheck your proposal, and strengthen the weak spots.

Seek advice from someone who has “been there and done that.”

LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Coming up with a new way of handling a tedious job-regulated chore could lead to more than just a congratulatory memo once the word reaches the “right people.” Good luck.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 to nov 21) What you might call determination someone else might regard as stubbornness. Look for ways to reach a compromise that won’t require a major shift of views on your part.

SAGITTARIUS (nov 22 to Dec 21) You’re still in a vulnerable mode vis-a-vis “offers” that sound too good to be true. So continue to be skeptical about anything that can’t be backed up with provable facts.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Thrift is still dominant this week. What you don’t spend on what you don’t need will be available for you to draw on should a possible (albeit temporary) money crunch hit.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Staying close to home early in the week allows for some introspection about your social life. Sort out your feelings before rejoining your fun-time fellows on the weekend.

PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) It can be a bit daunting as well as exciting to find yourself finally taking action on a long-delayed move for a change. It helps to stay with it when others rally to support you.
