Board talks programfundingNew commissioner welcomed at �rst brie�ngBy Glenn [email protected]

What was scheduled as a simple staff briefing to say hello to newly sworn in Jef-fco Commissioner Casey Tighe turned into reconsideration of recent nonprofit funding cuts.

Democratic Tighe defeated appointed incumbent and Republican John Odom in November, to take the 2nd District seat on the commission. He was sworn in, along with other county officials, earlier that day (Jan. 8), and had then attended the first Board of County Commissioners meeting of the year, where he was greeted by his two fellow commissioners.

”This is going to be fun,” assured 1st Dis-trict Commissioner Faye Griffin. ”We can’t always please everyone, but we do the best we can.”

On the subject of not being able to please everyone, later that day at the commission-er’s staff briefing, Tighe asked if it would be possible to revisit the county’s 2013 budget in hopes of reversing $688,000 in cuts to hu-man services that has drawn criticism from service advocates and state legislators.

The funding cuts were to three nonprofit agencies, which all contract with the county to provide the public — Jefferson Center for Mental Health, Family Tree and the Senior Resource Center.

”When we have tough economic times, it’s counter intuitive, but those services are more in demand,” Tighe said.

The request did not receive clear sup-port from the other two members of the board, but did lead to a conversation about how the county funds nonprofits in gen-eral, when Rosier mentioned that the three nonprofits were specifically included in the county’s human services budget.

Governor outlines challengesState of State covers gun control, civil unions, marijuana, economyBy Vic [email protected]

Gov. John Hickenlooper acknowledged that “there are no easy solutions” to issues involving guns, but said a debate on how best to deal with firearm-related violence is something “our democracy demands.”

The Democratic governor, addressing the General Assembly during his annual State of the State speech Jan. 10, also prof-fered his opinion on one area of gun con-trol that is certain to be one of the most passionately debated topics lawmakers will take up this legislative session.

“Let me prime the pump,” Hickenlooper said. “Why not have universal background checks for all gun sales?”

That suggestion certainly caught the at-tention of lawmakers on both sides of the aisle.

“It is just completely unenforceable,” House Minority Leader Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs, said of Hickenlooper’s call for all sales of guns — including those involving person-to-person transactions — be contingent on background checks.

But Democrats applauded the gover-nor’s stance.

“He made some risky points,” said Rep. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, D-Arvada. “He wasn’t afraid to jump into that.”

Gun control, one of many issues that legislators are expected to take up over the next five months of the session, was just one area that Hickenlooper addressed. Eco-nomic matters, civil unions and, of course, regulating the marijuana industry were also touched on during his 40-minute remarks.

Common ground soughtTaking on the issue of gun violence is a

top agenda item for this Democratic-con-trolled General Assembly, especially on the heels of last year’s Aurora theater killings and the December massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. But just talking about guns has always been a dicey political issue, as the governor acknowl-edged.

“Some point to guns, others to a violent culture,” he said. “Still others believe that the line between community security and individual freedom must be re-drawn.”

Legislators’ kicko� complete with grub, ga� es Opening Day of the General Assembly

— no, make that Opening Week — is one long social event punctuated by family gatherings, fl oral deliveries, speeches, in-side jokes, bad puns and, this year at least, Democratic control, iPads and something known as “Peegate.”

As usual, newly elected offi cials, male and female, donned their best suits for their photo ops and their mass swearing-in. Reporters not accustomed to covering “The Leg” squeezed into press areas. And lobbyists raced to legislators’ offi ces to praise, or pan, the bills that fl ooded in.

I, of course, headed straight for the one annual event that tends to bring even vehemently opposing sides together: Opening Night’s Blue Ribbon Reception, co-hosted by the Colorado Restaurant As-sociation and the Colorado Hotel & Lodg-ing Association. Senators and representa-tives from both sides of the aisle gathered at The Grand Hyatt’s Pinnacle Room with a bird’s-eye view of downtown from the 38th fl oor. State lawmakers tipped back adult beverages and scarfed down special snacks served by CRA-member restaurants. The per-person price of the party was low enough to comply with state ethics rules. (Full disclosure: I write a blog for the Res-taurant Association.)

The only audible discussions were which restaurant served the best food. While there was no consensus, the 14 par-ticipating eateries put out an impressive

example of their menus.Ted’s Montana Grill served bison short-

ribs, sausages and semi-sour pickles; The Charles Court at The Broadmoor upped the ante with a plate that included dynamite tuna tartare; CityGrille broke out some heat-fi lled green chili followed by minia-ture hamburger-shaped cookies; Cheyenne Mountain Resort plated a seared scallop; Mangia Bevi offered deep-fried ravioli with dipping sauces; Metro State culinary students cooked up crab cakes; Wild Eggs topped chips with egg salad and crostini with chicken salad; Outback Steakhouse served seared ahi tuna with wasabi soy dressing and blue cheese pecan chopped salad; Centerplate’s dessert display was worth raving about; The Fort served buf-falo meatballs; Bonefi sh Grill had tuna sashimi; The Fresh Fish Company served

tuna its way, seared along with ceviche; and Baca at the Inverness Hotel & Confer-ence Center offered seared sea scallops with forbidden rice and butternut squash risotto. During a short break at the feast fest, CRA President and CEO Pete Meers-man thanked the roughly 300 attendees along with the restaurants and beverage sponsors Republic National Distributing and Southern Wine & Spirits.

“Restaurants and hotels are the corner-stone of Colorado’s economy,” Meersman said. “Restaurants and hotels together will generate over $12.5 billion in sales this year. This generates over $850 million in state and local state sales taxes. Restau-rants and hotels employ roughly 286,000 employees in 11,500 restaurants.”

Those numbers were not lost on Gov. John Hickenlooper, a former restaurateur and founder of The Wynkoop Brewing Co., who spoke to the crowd he called “his peeps.”

“There is no challenge that restaurants can’t overcome,” Hickenlooper said. “My 10-year-old son, Teddy, and I got into an argument three weeks ago about how much homework he has. He said to me, ‘All you do is learn facts and make decisions and get a check. I learn something new every day and if I don’t get the facts right, my next day is miserable.’”

The governor went on to tell the law-makers, “Our goal is to make good deci-sions. If we get together we will have a great session.

“Right here in this room, we have the two greatest industries in the world — res-taurants and legislators.”

House Speaker Mark Ferrandino gave the Blue Ribbon Reception a big thumbs-up. “I told the House members this is by far the best event of the year,” he said. “This provides on opening day (of the Legisla-ture) a day to celebrate each other. We have the next 119 days to meet and talk but we might not always agree. Tonight, let’s cel-ebrate the opening of the Legislature.”

But Colorado Hotel & Lodging Associa-tion honcho Christine O’Donnell had the last word: “Let’s eat, drink and be merry!”

New this yearMany things have changed under the

Gold Dome, what with 27 representatives and four senators who’ve never served before. That’s what term limits get us.

But legislators are getting the chance to be more tech-savvy, with iPads all around. The paper-saving move was approved last year to cut down on printing and fi ling costs and to increase legislative effi ciency. The tablets set taxpayers back about $60,000, according to the Associated Press.

Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver, asked if software can automatically vote no for cer-

tain sponsors. The answer: Yes, but it’s “in-advisable.” On the fl ip side, also new were key card readers on certain upstairs bath-rooms at the Capitol that had long been accessible, through push-button codes, to lobbyists. Capitol regulars decried the change. “Let my people go,” one reporter Tweeted. The Department of Personnel and Administration acknowledged to some miscommunication with the legislature. By days’ end Friday, the crisis was over, with wider access restored.

Capitol bestsBest use of a fi ling cabinet, endangered

with the new iPads: To “put my coffee on,” said Sen. Greg Brophy.

Best debate over a speech: Sen. John Morse’s long paramedic story, about how he rushed to help following a car wreck where the victim ultimately died, had fans and foes. “Ran over to catch Sen. Morse’s speech. So far, I’m sorry I did,” the Grand Junction Sentinel’s Charles Ashby said on Twitter.

Best rip on the Senate: “We love having you in our chamber, but please leave,” said Speaker Mark Ferrandino.

Best photo op: Morse posed for a photo with the family of new Sen. Owen Hill. The two senators bitterly vied for a seat two years ago.

Second best photo op: Five speakers in one photograph — the current speaker and former speakers Frank McNulty, Andrew Romanoff, Terrance Carroll and Ruben Valdez.

Best gaffe: The governor said “Oh, Je-sus” after messing up a quote in his State of the State speech. Second-best gaffe: Chief Justice Michael Bender asked representa-tives to “oppose — uphold — the Constitu-tion.

Third-best gaffe: Morse introduced Bender as “Chief Justice Bennett.” Bender panned, “Thank you, President (Bill) Cad-man.”

Best symbolism: The House opened with Denver’s Gay Men’s Chorus singing Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA.” Ferrandino is the fi rst openly gay House speaker.

Best quip by a reporter: “`The skiing and the pot was great but the best part of my Colorado trip was the LAMB CHOPS,’ said no one, ever,” wrote the AP’s Kristen Wyatt, dissing Hickenlooper’s choice of what to bet on the Broncos game.

Foothills looks to redesign unusable land By Clarke Reader [email protected]

The “Field of Dreams” won’t just be in Iowa anymore once Foothills Elementary fi xes its currently unusable fi elds.

The school, 13165 W. Ohio Ave., has part-nered with the Jefferson County School District and the Lakewood City Council, parks and recreation and law enforcement, as well as the Lakewood Pastor’s Group and other Green Mountain organizations to rec-reate a fi eld area that students and the com-munity can use for sports and exercise.

The project is called the Foothills Field of Dreams and the goal is to redesign the fi eld area and create a baseball diamond and soccer fi eld.

“This partnership is really a unique situ-ation over here,” said Foothills principal Su-san Borzych. “The whole idea is to do this build with the community since our fi elds are 30 years old and not maintained.”

Borzych said that it has taken about a year for the school and all the other sup-porting organizations to get together. Vol-unteers have already drawn up a master plan for the project, and it has already gone through the necessary steps with the city. Now the project offi cials are ready to start raising funds.

“The project is going to cost around $450,000, and so we’re going to be applying for the GoCO (Great Outdoors Colorado) grant,” Borzych said. “Our goal is to raise

$25,000 by March, and if so we’ll be get-ting some matching funds. We’ll be getting matching funds from the school district for $50,000 and from Councilman David Wiechman for $50,000.”

Community outreach will be crucial in raising the initial $25,000 needed, and that’s one of the facets of the project that the Lakewood Pastor’s Group will be assist-ing with.

The group is made up of pastors from 16 different churches, and is lead by Reg Cox, from Lakewood Church of Christ.

“We collaborate and work together on projects with the mayor’s offi ce and the police department, and they really encour-aged us to do some work with schools,” Cox said. “These kinds of projects really allow us to challenge churches to help out. I really think Lakewood has one of the best collab-orative drives around.”

Councilman Adam Paul will be working with a group that will work with the busi-ness community to help with the project.

For Borzych, the project is so important because of the school’s focus on health and wellness for its students — a tall order when there is no fi eld for them to use.

“We’re really focusing on childhood obe-sity and wellness, and we just don’t have the facility for them to use,” she said. “We want to create an opportunity for the kids and the community.”

Legislators have big issues on their plate Democrats control both houses, governor’s o� ce Sta� report

Colorado’s General Assembly went into session Jan. 9 with Democrats in control of the House, Senate and the governor’s offi ce. But by most accounts, jobs and the econo-my remain the No. 1 priority for Colorado’s lawmakers.

New Speaker of the House Mark Fer-randino said as much a few days before the session kicked off, stating plans to roll out a series of eco-nomic bills.

More will be reported on the topic as legislative proposals emerge.

What follows is a look at other impor-tant and controversial issues legislators are expected to tackle this session, which is scheduled to end May 8.

• Gun control: Last summer’s Aurora theater shooting and the more recent Con-necticut school shooting have sparked new efforts across the nation to restrict access to certain types of guns and ammunition. But perhaps nowhere will the gun-control debate be more heated than in Colorado, a state that traditionally has shown staunch support for the Second Amendment.

Gov. John Hickenlooper has stated that the time is right for the discussion on gun control. The Democratic Legislature ap-pears poised to make that a priority. State Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, plans to in-troduce two bills, one that would expand background checks for would-be gun buy-ers and another that would ban high-ca-pacity magazine clips. Other lawmakers have chosen to focus this debate on treat-ment of the mentally ill rather than on guns themselves.

• Fracking: The popular term for hy-draulic fracturing involves pumping mil-lions of gallons of water mixed with sand and chemicals deep underground to break up layers of rock and extract oil and natural gas. Noise, air pollution, water consump-

tion and risk to groundwater have all be-come contentious issues.

Changes are already under way, with the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Com-mission recently approving a rule to require groundwater testing before and after drill-ing, and giving preliminary approval to in-creased setbacks from buildings. The panel will make a fi nal setback decision the week of Jan. 21. Limits on noise, emissions and dust and protections against spills also are being considered.

• Marijuana: Colorado’s Amendment 64 task force is on the job. And it’s quite a task. The 24 members of the panel are charged with making sense of a multitude of is-sues related to recreational marijuana use, which voters made legal in the November election. The task force has only until the end of February to compile their recom-mendations and pass on to the Legislature.

A few among the many questions they will consider: Should marijuana be regu-lated like alcohol as opposed to the medical marijuana model? Should pot tourism be prevented by allowing only Colorado resi-dents to purchase it? What can be done to ensure those under 21 years of age are not able to purchase and use the plant?

• Civil unions: This appeared well on its way to passing during last year’s session be-fore last-minute maneuvering prevented a vote. Having a Democratic majority in both chambers makes it highly likely this will be taken up again and passed. As for the pos-sibility of moving beyond civil unions to gay marriage, Ferrandino, who is openly gay, said in December, “I don’t think we’re there yet as a state.”

• Education: Funding for both higher education and K-12 education is expected to draw much attention from lawmakers. House Minority Leader Mark Waller re-cently said higher-education funding needs to be a priority, while Ferrandino said ad-equately funding the K-12 system is his par-ty’s No. 2 priority this session behind only jobs and the economy.

• The death penalty: Weeks before the session began, state Rep. Claire Levy, D-Boulder, said she was exploring the possi-bility of introducing legislation to ban the death penalty in Colorado. In December, new Senate President John Morse said, “If it is brought up this year, I will likely vote to repeal it.” The state has not executed a pris-oner since 1997.

Lakewood man pleads not guilty in death of girlfriendLopez faces additional attempted �rst-degree murder chargeBy Glenn [email protected]

A Lakewood man, charged with kill-ing one girlfriend, and attempting to kill another with his bare hands, pleaded not guilty to all charges in a Jefferson County courtroom last week.

Corey Lopez, 22, appeared in court on Jan. 10 in county custody.

He was arraigned on four felony counts, after Judge Christie Philips ruled that the District Attorney’s Office did have enough evidence to add the charge of attempted first-degree murder involv-

ing a second victim.In July of last year,

Lopez called police from his apartment at 1017 Teller St. to report his girlfriend, 21-year-old Richelle Ann Best, was unresponsive.

Police found Best dead at the scene. An au-

topsy listed her cause of death as “non-visible trauma.”

Lopez was arrested later that week and charged with first-degree murder.

In court last week, two officers from the Lakewood Police Department told how during their investigation of Best’s death, that they came to interview an ex-girlfriend.

According to the officers, the former girlfriend relayed several “specific inci-

dents involving choking,” inflicted by Lo-pez in 2008 to 2009. Prosecutors brought up several details from those interviews, including the number of times she alleges that Lopez choked her in anger (15), and times he choked her unconscious (five).

Prosecutors made special note of an incident where the ex-girlfriend said Lo-pez assaulted her so violently that she believed he would have killed her if by-standers had not intervened.

Throughout the hearing defense attor-neys repeatedly protested the use of hear-say — having one person testify to what someone else allegedly said — though the practice is allowed for the purpose of pre-liminary hearings.

The defense did not call any witnesses during the preliminary hearing.

The case is scheduled to go to trial in June.

It sure does! When weight is taken off of the

body there is much to be considered. Often the fo-

cus is on a certain weight loss number such as los-ing 10, 15, 40 lbs etc. When a person diets just to hit a certain number of pounds of weight loss without considering the

type of weight they are go-ing to lose, a choice is be-ing made that could leave them very frustrated.

Muscle is recognized as one of the great con-tributors to our metabo-

lism. As the aging process takes place, most adults will naturally start to lose small amounts of muscle each year which slows the rate of the metabolism. As this occurs we must alter our eating habits to adapt to the slowing metabolism or we will gain weight in the form of fat.

If a weight loss plan is not designed to protect the muscle mass, then muscle will be lost in the dieting process resulting in a slower metabolism. Most hypo-caloric (count your calorie) diets will result in the loss of some muscle mass.

As a resolution for 2013, don’t let your fear of going to the dentist push off tak-ing your kids in for their dental visits. Last week I had a father explain that he waited until his daugh-ter was almost four to take her to the dentist because he was worried she’d have a negative experience. I explained to him that his worry was natural! Chil-dren are instinctively hes-itant to lie down, sit still, and let the dentist poke around in their mouths. Fortunately, pediatric dentists are specially trained in the psychol-ogy of guiding children through the dental experi-ence. With the proper care and attention, it is pos-sible for children to LOVE going to the dentist.

Now you’re wondering, “How do they do that?” The answer is simple – trust. We begin by estab-lishing a relationship with the child and teach-ing them about dentistry in a way they can under-stand. The “Triangle of Trust” between the den-tist, child and parent, allows us to guide and support children through their visits, and reach the goal of having happy healthy dental patients.

Although some gener-al dentists are excellent with children, many fam-ilies prefer a specialist. Our two-year specialty training devotes signifi -cant study to child psy-chology, and we can offer multiple approaches to help your child become comfortable in the dental setting.

Many dental offi ces re-quire parents to stay in the waiting room while their child goes through the dental experience alone. That is not the philosophy at All Kids Dental. We know that parents are an impor-tant source of support, and feel strongly that children’s emotional needs come fi rst. We have an open-door policy and prefer that par-ents accompany and sup-port their child through-out their dental care. We’re proud of our ability to work with children! The almost 4-year-old mentioned above had a wonderful fi rst dental experience, the father was ecstatic, and fortunately, the child didn’t have any cavities. But 20% of kids her age are not so lucky. And that

number rises to 30% by the time kids are fi ve years old. For our youngest little patients with cavities, the dental treatment needs of-ten outweigh their coping skills, and it is important for a pediatric dentist to be able offer the methods to accomplish dental care gracefully, such as in-offi ce sedation. All Kids Dental in Evergreen prides them-selves on teaching kids to love going to the dentist. Dr. Brie and Dr. Bob are highly trained pediatric dentists with a state-of-the-art jungle-themed fa-cility located at I-70 and Evergreen Parkway, just 10 minutes from Denver West. Please call 303-670-KIDS (5437) or visit our website AllKidsJungle.com for more information.

Class o�ers a chance to create own drum setsRed Rock Community College’s new drum corpBy Clarke [email protected]

Red Rocks Community College marches to the beat of a different drummer, and one instructor is now teaching students how to make their own drums.

Dan Briechle teaches a drum building course through the col-lege’s fine woodworking program shows students the steps necessary to make their own set.

“If people are interested in something like this, then I’d love to share with them,” Briechle said. “I

teach the students how to use ma-terials that normally wouldn’t be used and how to make a truly cus-tom drum set.”

Briechle taught his first course in drum building in the fall, and is about to start again for the spring semester, this time offering a course specifically on building a snare drum, and another on building a full set. Briechle has had a passion for drums since he was 5 and re-ceived his first set. His father was a sculptor, and as he got older, he learned how to restore and then create his own sets.

“For a while I had a business on eBay where I would find used drum sets at garages sales, restore them and then sell them online,” he said.

“Soon I started making my own sets because I really wanted to push the envelope of what is made.”

Most custom drum sets really aren’t all that custom any more, he said. Buyers can make a few choices in terms of wood used, but not much else, and Briechle re-ally wanted to explore what could be done. That sense of exploration is something he is hoping to pass on to his students, some of whom Briechle said aren’t even drummers, but interested in learning the craft.

“The premise of the class is to not focus too much on the techniques, which aren’t too difficult and just require practice to get down, but to get them to create something new,” he said.

Bill McGreevy, a dean of instruc-tion at the college, thought the idea for the course was really intriguing and has seen great results from the first group of students.

“Our fine woodworking depart-ment had its open house, and what the students had made looked great,” he said. “The proof is really in how they sound, and I was really impressed — they sounded great.”

For Briechle, the manifesto of the class is that students produce something truly unique.

“What these students make is in-credible,” he said. “It’s hard to find real custom drums, and I hope to give the students exposure to that.”

Lakewood debate team in ‘sweet 16’Team of three amongst top teams in worldBy Clarke [email protected]

The Lakewood High School debate team has moved into the “sweet sixteen” of an internation-al debate competition.

The Bickel & Brewer-NYU International Pub-lic Policy Forum (IPPF) is an annual internation-al debate competition for $10,000, open to all schools worldwide — public and private — for free. According to information provided by the IPPF this year 213 teams, representing 34 states and 29 foreign countries, have entered and Lake-wood High is now in the top 16 of competitors, beating Clayton High School from Missouri.

The “sweet 16” group includes teams from 12 states and three foreign countries.

“We’ve been competing for five years, and

we’ve been in the top eight for two years,” said the team’s coach, Gregory Davis, who has taught debate for more than 20 years. “Last year we came in second, in the entire world.”

Lakewood lost to a team from the Czeck Re-public.

For this year’s “sweet 16” round Lakewood High School will be competing against Shanley High School of Fargo, N.D.

For the competition three members of the team work together to respond to a public policy issue, first in writing, and if they make it to the “elite eight,” then in New York City, for oral argu-ments.

The essays are judged by people with experi-ence in the public policy area that is being writ-ten about, according to Davis, which is great ex-perience for the students. This year the subject is about climate change, and senior Amanda Sopkin said that the subject is a fun challenge for the writers. Sopkin is one of two on the team who were in last year’s second-place winning team.

“Last year it was kind of a shock with how

much writing we had to do, but I’m really glad we did it, because it makes working this year easier,” she said.

The team received their writing assignment and will begin researching and writing their re-sponse.

“All three students collaborate, because there’s a lot of research required, and then they work together on the writing,” Davis said. “I’ll take a look and suggest some changes, they’ll do a final rewrite and then submit it.”

On Feb. 11 the eight winners — who will travel to New York City in April to compete — will be announced.

For Sopkin, the real fun is in getting to meet so many different people from different teams and hear about their different experiences.

As far as Lakewood’s chances of advancing, Sopkin said she has a good feeling about this year’s competition.

“I feel really good about this year’s team, be-cause we have experience in the competition,” she said.

Neighborhood schools’ grad rates on riseBy Clarke [email protected]

Lakewood neighborhood schools’ graduation rates have increased, a group of educators told City Council during its Monday night meeting.

Jefferson County Board of Education President Lesley Dahlkemper, Superin-tendent Cindy Stevenson, Bear Creek High School Principal Kevin Carroll, Green Mountain High School Princi-pal Colleen Owens and Lakewood High School Principal Ron Castagna, were all on hand to speak about the improve-ment.

“The graduation rate for the county has gone up from 86 to 88 percent this year, but we’d like to focus on your neigh-

borhood schools,” Dahlkemper said. “Bear Creek has increased from 89 to 92.5 percent, Green Mountain saw just a slight dip, and Lakewood High School has increased from 83 to 92 percent.”

One of the statistics Dahlkemper was happiest to share was that Alameda High School has increased its graduation rate from 74 to 89 percent, which was the highest increase in all the neighborhood schools.

“We’re very proud of our principals, teachers, the support staff, and of course the students, their community and fam-ilies,” Dahlkemper said.

Stevenson said that these results show that the hard work the schools have been doing is the right work, but that it is important to acknowledge that graduation starts in preschool and kin-

dergarten, where children make con-nections with adults who care about their student’s success.

“There is a lot of work, but it’s impor-tant, Owens said. “As a principal, there’s not a day that goes by that we’re not thinking of the next innovative thing to try.”

Castagna spoke about how amazing the students at his schools are.

“We’ve got the bar set really high, and a lot of our students are really achiev-ing,” he said.

For Carroll, graduation is not the end of school’s work, but the beginning, be-cause it is important that students are prepared for the world outside high school.

“You can’t be a great city without great schools,” Murphy said.

JEFFCO NEWS IN A HURRYCommissioners and committees

As one of their first official duties of the first meeting of 2013, the Jef-ferson County commissioners on Jan. 8 elected a chair (re-electing 3rd Dis-trict Commissioner Donald Rosier), and designated which commissioners would be representing the county at 18 various agency boards.

A commission rookie, and out-numbered by two Republicans, the Democrat Casey Tighe still challenged Rosier for positions on the influential Denver Regional Council of Govern-ments, and Jefferson Parkway Public Highway Authority Boards.

”I want to make sure we have good distributions and good perspectives,” Tighe said.

Rosier said he would like to keep the positions, citing his two years of previous experience, and the leader-ship roles he has taken within both agencies.

Tighe eventually agreed, though he was named the alternate county representative to both groups.

Guilty plea in toddler deathKeith Nick Ruiz, 26, was in Jeffer-

son County Court on Friday where he pleaded guilty to causing the death of 2-year-old Dolci Gryshayeva in Lakewood in 2011.

Dolci was the daughter of his live-in girlfriend.

On Sept. 7, 2011 Ruiz came home from work to watch Dolci.

He admits he became very frus-trated and that he snapped and force-fully threw her to the ground. When he realized that she had stopped breathing he called 911.

Dolci never regained conscious-ness and was taken off life support on Sept. 9, 2011.

Ruiz pleaded guilty to child abuse, and recklessly causing a death.

He faces 25 to 40 years in prison. Sentencing has been set for Feb. 26.

‘Heroes Behind the Badge’ to showA documentary highlighting the

heroism of police officers that place themselves in harm’s way will have a special screening in the Denver area next week.

can Mountaineering Museum Foss Theater, 710 10th St. in Golden.

The film is being shown across the state, courtesy of the Police Unity Tour and the Colorado Auxiliary of Wives Behind the Badge.

6 Lakewood Sentinel January 17, 20136-OPINION

Turn traction to more action in state’s economyGov. John Hickenlooper praised Colo-

rado for its economic rebound in his State of the State address last week.

We, too, like many of the signs we see, and like to think we are coming out of the woods. The early weeks of a new year make for a good time to share some good numbers, stand up and put ourselves in the optimistic category.

The Colorado Municipal League, a non-profit agency that represents interests of 267 cities and towns in the state, reported last week that our state’s cities and towns fare better than most others across the nation.

The organization’s State of our Cit-ies and Towns report noted 47 percent of Colorado municipalities closed out the year with increased revenues and further noted an inverse relationship to three years ago when 46 percent reported lower rev-

enue. To our readers, take heart that Front Range cities fared particularly well with 83 percent reporting increased revenue.

Going onto the new year, we’ll be look-ing for the results of increased revenues in our cities — cities that have made staff cuts and implemented furlough days in recent years. This month in Northglenn, the council found it could muster a 2 percent increase for most employees after three years of frozen salaries. These are the types of impacts we hope to see, as well as care-ful consideration of how to put increased revenues to work for residents in services,

fees, backlogged street projects and other numerous other impacts to pocketbooks and quality of life.

Further the report states local econo-mies investing in economic development activities is paying off as well — noting 88 percent of municipalities participate in one or more economic development activi-ties. The list includes classic car shows, art festivals, beer festivals and bike races.

The USA Pro Cycling Challenge that whizzed through various parts of the state in August, including Golden and Denver, quickly comes to mind.

The partnerships to work quickly and effectively were pronounced as strong community spirit bubbled up in day-to-day business, volunteer efforts, in-kind contributions and the like. We witnessed these partnerships working effectively and ethically. The report added that the state

added 40,000 jobs in 2012, and the work of municipalities is part of that effort as the state continues to wrestle out of a reces-sion period.

Big picture, last year it was big news when Colorado was ranked third best state in the Beacon Hill Institute competitive-ness survey — an index that compiles economic indicators in an expansive 44 categories compiled at the institute at Bos-ton’s Suffolk University. We noticed how the report prompted local comments that the state will never again return to the boom and bust cycles it was known for, especially in the 1980s. We, too, are optimistic. So we’ll be watching and hoping to see even more traction moving forward.

Colorado has a lot of good stats which should encourage cities, communities and businesses to dig in with their best efforts this year.

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

OUR VIEW

What is your take on the legislative session?Gov. John Hickenlooper delivered his

State of the State address last week at the state Capitol. Addressing recreational mar-ijuana, civil unions, funding for education and gun control are among top of mind

issues for many people and legislators.We spoke to people enjoying hot bever-

ages Sunday afternoon at Starbucks near 104th Avenue and Federal Boulevard in Westminster.

I believe there is way too much symbolism over substance. Our Legislature needs to encourage service in the community rather than be quick to legislate government solutions. What we really need are people to help people on their blocks. – Al Apuzzo, Westminster

I want to see Colorado set up laws for progressive gun control legislation as an example for the rest of the county. – Missy McMurray, Westminster

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

I would really like to see our government work to get to real solutions instead of stalling, and see some real progress. I’d like gun control to limit magazines, guns not to be sold at Walmart … and job creation needs to be at the forefront. – Emily Milton, Westminster

Two things. Make sure there’s su�cient funding for higher education, including graduate programs. And we need sensible gun control — not stu� than doesn’t do anything. We need to focus on solving violence in our communities. – Hans Anderson, Westminster

Banged up by expectations“Fear leads to anger; anger leads to hate;

hate … leads to suffering.” — YodaMy Buddhist friends would have a vari-

ant on that statement that goes like this: “Expectation leads to disappointment; disappointment leads to anger; anger leads to suffering.” Or something to that effect.

So how many of you were suffering Saturday night after the Broncos lost to the Ravens?

I know I was, just a little. And it’s all because we actually had expectations of this team; at the very least, we figured they would beat the Ravens and get to the AFC Championship game.

Contrast that with last year’s playoff experience: Nobody had any expectation that the Broncos would beat the Steelers, but they did.

Which, of course, brought the city a sense of elation. Much better than suffer-ing, dontcha think?

Of course, football is trivial — for most of us, a mindless diversion from the realities of our daily lives. But I use it to illustrate a point.

Expectations are a wonderful and useful thing, especially as they communicate to people, particularly students, the degree of accomplishment that they should be able to achieve. But, whereas communicating expectations to a group is necessary to de-fine goals, allowing expectations for other people to drive your own sense of accom-plishment is a tricky task.

And to build expectations out of whole-cloth, based on vague notions of what somebody else says they can do, is a fool’s errand.

And speaking of fools, that brings me around to Washington, D.C. (You knew I had to be going somewhere with this, didn’t you?)

I hope the president is right, that taxing “the rich” is going to solve all our prob-lems; and I hope the Senate knows what it is doing with money, considering that it hasn’t passed a budget in four years; and I hope the House is on the right track, once again playing “chicken” with a debt limit increase.

But I’m keeping my expectations in check. The total revenue of the president’s tax hike represents a little less than this year’s deficit ... through July; the Democrat-led Senate, while not managing to muster the wherewithal to even propose its own budget, has been able to find the will to vote down two of the president’s budget proposals and a couple dozen House ver-sions.

And the GOP-led House has managed to ... well, sort of devolve into a bit of a national embarrassment.

Given that these are the luminaries that lead us, I would encourage everybody to keep their expectations for our future in check. At least as far as Washington is concerned.

Putting your hopes in Washington is a little like having high expectations of the Broncos this past weekend; however, work-ing away every day at things that are within your control is an act of sanity.

Engage your school board, attend city council meetings, know who your county commissioner is. And by all means, get to know your neighbors.

Build your own community as if it were an independent operating entity. And then if Washington manages to do something helpful, it’ll be like a Tim Tebow moment — something rare, unexpected and worth celebrating.

The Edge shows ‘Newark’ World premiere of specially commissioned play By Clarke Reader [email protected]

The Edge Theater has a reputation of putting on plays that push the envelope, but for the first time it is showing a play that was written specifically for the the-ater.

“Newark Violenta,” which is showing at the theater, 9797 W. Colfax Ave., through Jan. 26, was written by local playwright Jonson Kuhn after he was commissioned by executive producer and artistic direc-tor Rick Yaconis.

“I submitted a play to their local play-wrights contest, but the play I had sub-mitted ended being picked up by another company,” Kuhn said. “So I told Rick and Patty that I could write something for them.”

“Newark Violenta” is an homage to the mafia B-movies of the 1970s, as well as the work of Quentin Tarantino. Kuhn has taken almost a slapstick approach to the genres, according to Yaconis.

“It’s a really fun take on these stories,” he said. “It has everything from crooked FBI agents to mafia dons and bookies.”

Kuhn said that he was inspired by the fact that both he and Yaconis are Italian, and that he has been a fan of the genre for a long time.

The play tells the story of Leo, a bookie in Atlantic City, who used to work for the mafia in Newark, N.J., but is now banned. Leo is a Vietnam veteran who served with Frank, who now is the head of the Newark mafia family.

Now that he is the head of the family, he’s coming for Leo.

Kuhn said that he rewrote the play four or five times before arriving at the fin-

ished draft because he said he didn’t want the production to get started until he had a draft that everyone was happy with.

“We’ve been working on this for four months, and most of that time has been because of script changes,” Yaconis said.

Creating that draft meant working with the cast, and especially working with di-rector Rich Cowden, who Kuhn studied under when he was younger, and said was instrumental in getting the play on stage.

Kuhn said the table reads were a lot of fun, and allowed a lot of ideas about the characters and show to be developed.

“I’ve written six or seven plays, but this is the most professional experience, and it’s been a real treat,” he said. “The Edge seemed like the appropriate place for the show, and I don’t know that every theater would have taken a chance like this.”

Yaconis said that putting on “Newark Violenta” demonstrates The Edge’s com-mitment to developing new work and tal-ent in the area.

“We’re doing eight shows this season, and two of them are brand new,” he said. “A lot of people do the same shows, but while we’ll do a few familiar things, we want to open and close the season with new work.”

Choose a word, not a resolution I don’t make

resolutions.Of course, my

friends will joke with me that I ac-tually am resolving when making this decision.

Yet, resolutions have never come easily for me. I do want to exercise more, live healthily, and enjoy family and friends, but I want to do this all the time, not just because it’s Jan. 1. And although I heartily support the concept of fresh starts and new beginnings, I don’t rely on the calendar to signal their inceptions.

So instead, I choose a word as my focus. I learned about this notion last year from a fellow author, Nancy Parker Brummett, who had read about it in an article by Debbie Macomber. Macomber stated that in-stead of making resolutions for the new year, she just chooses one word to focus on and to live by, and then to see how that word comes to play in her life.

I liked this concept and decided to choose my word after my friend Nancy told me how she chose “joy” for 2012. (She hasn’t chosen her word for 2013 yet.)

For 2012, I chose “alche-my” for myself (appropri-ate, don’t you think?). This word represented making something out of nothing, taking something not so great and making it better. Within weeks, I found a couple of references to al-chemy and alchemists. And although “alchemy” is an unusual word, it popped up for me throughout 2012.

Since the recent New Year’s Eve, I’ve been looking for my 2013 word. Then it declared itself. At a recent daylong, set-our-goals-for-the-next-six-months writing workshop, we were asked to describe why we write, who we write for and what we want to accom-plish with our writing.

I write because I have to, and most writers will answer this question with variations on this theme. Yet, in this workshop we were asked to dig a little deeper, to express why we feel compelled to write. Responses from around the room ranged from altruis-tic—“to make a difference,” through light-hearted—“to entertain.”

My own reasons in-cluded both altruism and light-heartedness … and everything in between. Ultimately, though, I nar-rowed it down to an easing, and an illumination.

From there, distilling “easing” and “illumination” was straightforward: Mak-ing loads lighter, and shin-ing a light on that which needs to be seen.

That’s how “light” became my word for 2013. And that’s why I’m looking forward to the new year with renewed interest. What possibilities there are

for light!I’m already on a journey

of lightening my own load, having started a project called “365 Days of Divest-ing” on my birthday late last year. I’ve also lightened my mental cargo by scaling back the width of my social and professional activities and focusing on the depth of the commitments I do make.

Additionally, as a board member for the organiza-tion Writing for Peace, I can use my words to expose the darkness of violence and ignorance. And I can talk to you, and to others, about highlighting the kindness and generosity and com-passion of our everyday lives.

So let me ask you: If you were to decide against reso-lutions, what would your word for the new year be?

For 2013, personally, I’m looking forward to the light.

Comedy with a bite‘Blithe Spirit’ mixes wit with changeBy Clarke [email protected]

Noël Coward is one of the best known playwrights of the 20th century, and stands next to Oscar Wilde as one of the best writ-ers of wit and fast-paced dialogue.

Yet Coward’s work hasn’t been produced at the Arvada Center for decades, a trend that is now over with its production of “Blithe Spirit.”

The center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., will run the play at its Black Box Theater from Jan. 22 through Feb. 17.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays, 1 p.m. Wednesdays and 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays.

“Coward’s work is really enjoyable and so quick, but he has a little more edge and bite to his work,” said Rod A Lansberry, the play’s director. “The back and forth between the characters is different to direct because it’s so easy to get caught up in the rhythm.”

The story of “Blithe” revolves around Charles Condomine (Steven Cole Hughes), an upper class British author in the 1930s, who invites Madame Arcati (Beth Flynn) to his home to conduct a séance as research for his latest novel.

Things take a turn for the supernatural when Madame Arcati accidentally conjures up the ghost of his first wife, Elvira (Heather Lacy) — a ghost his new wife Ruth (Kate Berry) cannot see.

Madness and mayhem follow as Elvira tries to disrupt Charles’ marriage to Ruth, and then decides her husband should join her in the afterlife.

“Blithe” is the first time Lansberry, Hughes and Flynn have tackled Coward’s work, and have found the experience ex-tremely challenging and fun.

“There is a line the character Ruth when she says, ‘Do you think it’s interesting how easily people let themselves be deceived?’ and I think that really sums up the play,” Hughes said. “I think the statement really applies to relationships, and that’s what the play is about.”

Flynn said she really enjoys the charac-

ter of Madame Arcati, and how despite her eccentricities, she has a structure and regi-ment that works for her.

Flynn and Hughes believe that the play is much more of a social satire than a farce, and says a lot about the times Coward was writing in.

“There’s another quote from the play that says, ‘It’s discouraging to think how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit’ and that says a lot about what he was trying to do,” Flynn said. “The play is very cerebral in what it’s doing.”

Lansberry said the the play covers the changing opinion of the upper class and morals in society in its comedy, and that it really keeps the play relevant.

“It’s an amazing cast, the rapport be-tween the characters is great,” he said. “For people who have never seen Coward’s work, it’s clever, witty and fun.”

Joey isn’t your everyday horse

Joey is a featured life-sized puppet presented by the Handspring Puppet Company that brings breathing, gallop-ing and charging horses to thrilling life on stage in this production of “War Horse,” the Broadway hit playing the Buell Theatre through 20.

Here are Joey’s stats:• Joey weighs 120 pounds and is hand-

made by 14 people. Its frame is mostly cane, soaked, bent and stained.

• An aluminum frame along the spine, lined partly with leather for comfort, allows the horse to be ridden.

• Stretched, hosiery-like Georgette fab-ric makes up the “skin” beneath the frame.

• A puppeteer at the head controls the ears and head; one in the heart controls breathing and front legs; a third in the hind controls the tail and back legs.

• A harness connects the puppet’s and puppeteer’s spines so his or her move-ments become the breathing of the horse.

Tickets are available only by calling either 303-893-4100 or at www.dcpa.org. Beware of scalpers selling tickets on the Internet because they are more often than not fraudulent.

Hyatt may transform LoewsThe Loews Denver Hotel in Glendale

is being sold to Hyatt, and will be trans-formed into a Hyatt Place as of Feb. 21, according to a super-secret source.

According to my spy, she discussed the ownership change with a manager who confirmed the impending brand transition. No one from the city of Glendale nor from Hyatt could be reached as of deadline.

If the flag does change, that will mean severely altering Loews, which considers itself a luxury brand, to a mid-line Hyatt product, which typically is an 11-story ho-tel with between 125 to 200 rooms located in an urban, suburban or airport location, according to the www.hyatt.com website description. Hyatt Place hotels are often compared to Marriott’s Courtyard brand.

The sale of the Loews property was completed on Dec. 20, and the hotel is only accepting reservations through Feb. 28. Hyatt Place brands feature suite-type ame-nities with big-screen TVs, free wifi access and a complimentary hot breakfast daily. Hyatt Places also include meeting rooms for small corporate events. Room prices are roughly $129 a night.

I will let you know more details as they become available.

La La landFormer Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony

and wife, La La, have been living sepa-rately, according to an item last week in the New York Post.

“It is true they haven’t seen much of each other in the past few months,” a friend of the couple told the gossip column Page Six. “She’s been away a lot filming her show, ‘La La’s Full Court Life,’ in London, New York and LA. They are not separated and are still together. She and Melo have a house in LA — so she’s always there when she’s doing auditions.”

However, another source contradicts that point of view. “They have been living separately for several months now,” that source says. “She’s been living in LA while Carmelo has been in New York.”

According to The Post, “Sources add that La La’s also been partying with girlfriends from Mexico to Miami, which has

ASPEN PARK APARTMENTS

301 East Malley DriveNorthglenn, CO 80233

(303) 452-8849www.aspenparkcoloradoapartments.com

Come home to your newly renovated one,

two, or three-bedroom apartment. Nestled

in a unique park-like setting, Aspen

Park provides a welcoming community

environment with a variety of spacious

floor plans to choose from. Featuring an

expansive new clubhouse, fitness center,

playground, and one of Denver’s only

apartment communities with its own

year-round indoor swimming pool! We

also have two seasonal outdoor pools, a

business center café and a kids clubroom.

There is always something to do right outside your front door. With easy access

to I-25 and a short drive to E-470, your commute will be a breeze.

Renovated with you in mind, Aspen Park is your place to call home.

Where were you born?I was born in Fort Scott, Kansas but my family moved to

Colorado when I was 2 years old.

How long have you lived in the area?I grew up in Lakewood but have lived in Arvada for about

35 years. I attended Saint Bernadette’s Elementary School, Je� erson High School and then Colorado State University.

What do you like most about it?We are an active family and love being outdoors. We have

two sons who are now 28 and 24. We have a cabin in Grand Lake where we spend time � shing, hiking, snowmobiling and gol� ng. We sometimes go to Winter Park to ski and to go to the sledding hills. In the summer, we have dirt bikes; we ride on the trails and love the views from Stillwater Pass.

How long have you worked in Real Estate?

My husband Tony and I work together at Keller Williams. Before real es-tate, I was a � ight atten-

dant with Continental Airlines; in 1993, I took an early retire-ment. I have been selling real estate for 20 yrs. We have two boys who were young at the time I le� the airlines and I felt I would be away from home too much to continue � ying. My real estate career has been great career for me; not only be-cause I enjoy it, but it has also gave me the � exibility I needed while raising children.

What is your specialty and what does that mean for the people you work with?

I have worked with all kinds of buyers and sellers and all aspects of real estate. With an ever-changing market, I had recently been assisting in the sale of foreclosures for banks and helping sellers with their short sales. My passion has al-ways been working directly with buyers and sellers. � e ex-

citement of a � rst time homebuyer is very gratifying.

What is the most challenging part of what you do?

Recently the inventory of avail-able homes for sale has decreased

so � nding the perfect home for a buyer has been more chal-lenging. Also, the lending process has become more challeng-ing since the downturn of the real estate market. Real estate has always been and ever changing business.

What do you most enjoy doing when you are not working?We love to travel and spend time outdoors. Since I retired

from Continental, I am still able to enjoy some airline ben-e� ts. If time permits, we like to visit other parts of the world. Seeing places where history took place is what we enjoy the most. We also enjoy golf, � shing, hiking, riding motorcycles, skiing and generally enjoying beautiful Colorado.

What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house?

Prepare your home to sell in the best possible condition. Do some updating such as carpet or paint and make any re-pairs needed. First impressions are critical, so make sure your home shows in its best possible light when the buyer arrives, curb appeal is important. Make sure your home sparkles!

What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house?

Decide where you want to live and what type of home you are looking to buy. Talk with a lender to see what type of loan and payment you can qualify for and get your � nancial docu-

ments together so the loan process is stress free. � e help of a realtor is essential.

What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate?

When selling vacant homes you nev-er know what you may � nd. We have seen raccoons in the bathtub to camp-� res in the living room and everything In between. I guess it keeps it interest-ing!

Amazing mural“Before I Die …,” a worldwide interac-

tive art installation by Candy Chang, has been installed on the grounds of the Mc-Nichols Civic Center Building at the corner of Colfax Avenue and Bannock Street.

With blackboard space next to the words “Before I die I want to …” the mural invites visitors to pick up a piece of chalk, refl ect on their lives, and share their per-sonal aspirations in a public space.

The mural was installed in Denver’s Sonny Lawson Park by the Community Co-ordinating District No. 1 last summer and moved to the McNichols Building grounds in early December.

The original “Before I Die …” mural was built in New Orleans, where artist Chang transformed the side of an aban-doned house in her neighborhood into a giant chalkboard and stenciled it with the sentence.

By the next day, the wall was entirely fi lled and kept growing. The wall turned a neglected space into a constructive one where neighbors had an outlet to get to know each other and remember their loved

ones.It was brought to Denver through a

partnership of Arts and Venues Denver, the Community Coordinating District, Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design and Denver Design Build.

“Before I Die …” murals have been installed in more than 20 countries and reproduced in more than 10 languages. For photos and more information, go to http://beforeidie.cc/site/denver.

Proud papaDenver sports radio and TV personal-

ity Mark McIntosh has a reason to brag about his son. “My son Kyle is a comedy writer in Los Angeles. He’s working on a new show that will air its fi rst season starting Jan. 16,” Mark announced on his Facebook page.

The sketch comedy series, called “Kroll Show” on Comedy Central, sati-rizes “our television-obsessed culture and the rabid fan base it breeds,” according to the description on www.comedycen-tral.com. “More than just a collection of sketches, Kroll Show is about giving Nick (Kroll’s) fans a chance to see his of-the-moment take on pop culture, sports news (and more).”

State: Civil unions expected to pass this legislative sessiontransparent with that bill,” arguing that language in civil union legislation shouldn’t contradict the ex-isting gay marriage ban in the state Constitution.

Then there’s another big deal that elected offi cials will have to take up in the coming months.

“Oh yeah, Amendment 64,” Hickenlooper quipped, referring to November’s voter-approved legaliza-tion of recreational mari-juana use. A task force is working on fi nding ways to regulate the marijuana industry and will forward its fi ndings to legislators by the end of February.

Hickenlooper said it is important for the drug not to reach children, and he wants to expand DUI laws for those driving while impaired on marijuana. Waller, who is sponsoring a bill that deals with driving

under the infl uence of mar-ijuana, said he was pleased to hear the governor ad-dress that issue.

With so many hot-but-ton issues coming up this session, it may be easy to lose focus of what Colora-do residents perhaps want lawmakers to pay the most attention to over the next fi ve months.

“We do know it’s the

economy,” said Kraft-Tharp. “It’s jobs.”

Hickenlooper praised Colorado’s “economic re-bound” following “a his-toric recession.” The gover-nor said he wants to “keep improving and building on the foundation we have in place,” and that he plans to put forth a budget that “builds the state’s fi nancial solvency.”

D’Evelyn’s Jungle rains (threes) all over Golden Young Demons to use loss to Jags as measuring stick By Daniel Williams [email protected]

LAKEWOOD - In the jungle it just rains, and rains, and rains.

No, not the jungle defi ned by Wikipedia as: land covered in dense vegetation. The one we are referring to is D’Evelyn High School’s gymnasium, “The Jun-gle,” home of the Jaguars.

And that jungle rains three pointers like they are going out of style and that storm swal-lowed up Golden last Friday night. D’Evelyn beat Golden 71-34 at D’Evelyn High School, in a 4A Jeffco league matchup.

The Jaguars hit 12 three point-ers, four of those by junior Malia Shappell, and they attacked the Demons early and never let up. Shappell fi nished with 16 points.

“It’s always a team effort ev-ery night; we just come out and play hard. But it’s not only in games; we practice really hard so it is easy in games,” Shappell said.

D’Evelyn outscored the De-mons 35-11 in the fi rst half, and while their offense was clicking, their full court press suffocated Golden’s offense, never allow-ing them to get comfortable. The Jaguars forced nearly 40 Golden turnovers.

“We were really good tonight. We jumped on them early, it’s what we like to do,” D’Evelyn coach Chris Olson said. “We like to put a lot of pressure on teams and get after it.”

But even in the loss Golden

was impressive. Down double digits the Demons came out in the second half with inten-sity and ready to play. And while they were a longshot to get back into Friday’s game they know that they still have a long season left, and as one of the youngest teams in 4A Jeffco they have a lot of room for improvement.

Golden junior Maddie Mur-phy took her team’s defi cit as an insult and in the second half she was a monster. Murphy fi n-ished with a stat line of eight points, three assists and three rebounds, but her defense and leadership in the second half shined brightly.

“I think if we would have had the same intensity in the fi rst

half as we did in the second half it would be a different story,” Murphy said. “We are a young team and I think the nerves got to us a little bit. But I am proud of the way we kept fi ghting.”

Although the fi nal score was lopsided Golden is already thing about their rematch with D’Evelyn on Feb. 12. Golden also has one of the best home court advantages in their league and they think their building with a combination of better perimeter defense and their next meeting could be a different story.

“When they are hitting three’s like that they can beat anybody on any night. Then they are shooting 60 percent from the fi eld like that it is tough,” Gold-en coach Mike Mendoza said. “But we get them again later in the season and we have a good home court advantage as well.”

D’Evelyn (10-1, 2-0) will host Evergreen Friday at 7 p.m.

Golden (4-7, 1-1) hosts Green Mountain Friday at 5:30 p.m.

Locals power Team Colorado to �nalsSquad of eight-graders reaches Football University championship game

By Craig [email protected]

High school football coaches in the Den-ver metropolitan area must have licked their chops at the news of Team Colorado making it to the Football University (FBU) Youth National Championship title game for eighth-graders earlier this month.

Surely, Pomona’s Jay Madden was one of them. The bulk of the 30-player team came from head coach Ken Marchiol’s Aurora-based Creek Red Nation squad, which plays in the Jefferson County Midget Football As-sociation. But at least a half-dozen mem-bers are bound for Pomona, which should boost Madden’s confidence of maintaining one of the state’s high-profile Class 5A pro-grams.

And Bear Creek is expected to add Team Colorado quarterback Jovan Tafoya -- whom Marchiol called “the best eighth-grade quarterback I’ve ever seen’’ - to its program this fall.

“The kids just did great,’’ said Tim Tes-one, the head coach of the Arvada Wildcats who served as quarterbacks coach for Mar-chiol’s all-star team. “Four of my kids were on the team and two of them played very significantly.’’

Tafoya and Elijah Durrett, whom Tesone said “played a lot of safety,’’ were the major contributors. Robbie DeHerrera and Alex Larson “two big, good-looking linemen’’ -- were reserves. The latter three are Pomona-bound, Tesone said.

Jeremy Gonzales, a running back/defen-sive back whom Tesone said is “lightning fast,’’ and fullback/linebacker Cameron Gonzales (no relation) played on Broom-

field’s youth team but are expected to at-tend Pomona along with receiver Miles Matulik and lineman Jacob Moretti, who lives in Brighton.

Darrell Gonzales (no relation to the aforementioned Gonzaleses), Team Colo-rado’s National Championship Director, oversaw the selection of the team. Some 250 players grades 6-11 are invited to a skills camp in June. They and players from open tryouts following an eight-game regu-lar season in the fall are eligible for Team Colorado. Team Colorado opened play in the NCAA Tournament-style 64-team tour-nament that is divided into four geographic regionals by beating Las Vegas 38-12 and Salt Lake 28-0 in the first two rounds in Las Vegas, then won the West by knocking off Ventura County (Calif.) 38-6 and Northern Los Angeles 36-6 in Reno, Nev., earning a trip to San Antonio for the Final Four in the Alamodome.

There, Team Colorado beat St. Louis 28-0 on Jan. 4 before bowing to North Georgia 32-6 in the Jan. 6 final, a game they trailed 14-6 with six minutes left in the fourth quarter before North Georgia returned an interception for a touchdown and scored again after recovering an onside kick. Team Colorado, which won its first five games with the mercy rule (running clock with a 24-point lead), committed five turnovers and allowed a punt return for a touchdown in the championship game.

Team Colorado had to play most of the title game without its top running back, Ki-Jana Phillips of Denver, who broke a collar-bone in the first series. Phillips was second nationally in the AAU 14-under 100 meters.

Team Colorado won with a strong run-ning game and dominant defense.

“Phillips was the fastest running back and our starter, but we had six really good (rushing) threats on offense and very little passing,’’ said Marchiol, who played briefly in the NFL. “We were fast and physical on defense and our starting defense only gave up 12 points in six games.’’

Gonzales said he was “extremely sur-prised’’ that Team Colorado reached the championship game, and he and Marchiol believe it will be a difficult feat to duplicate.

“This was a special unit that put all the rivalries aside,’’ Gonzales. “It was a group that hadn’t played together.’’

“I’d be surprised if any Colorado team ever gets this close again,’’ Marchiol said, though he wasn’t surprised by how far his team advanced. “I knew we’d have a chance against anybody. … We played six games in a row and I guess you’re due to have some mistakes.

“The kids had so much fun together and they worked so hard and studied so much film. They didn’t want it to end, and to do that they had to keep on winning.’’

Girls hoops: Alameda hit by hard timesBy Daniel [email protected]

Tough times have hit the Alameda girls’ basketball program like a ton of bricks.

They are winless on the season and that was extended with their 66-7 loss at Coni-fer High School on Friday. No, that is not a typo, seven total points the Pirates scored in their loss to Conifer.

Alameda scored one point in the second quarter, and then two points in the first, third and fourth quarters, as the team con-tinues to struggle for offense.

Alameda (0-9, 0-2) may have help on the way in the form of a trio of freshman who have all been absorbing varsity experience. While the Pirates have been getting beat up this season, they will be better for it in 2013-2014.

Alameda will play at Arvada High School Friday at 7 p.m.

BEARS TESTED BY TIGERSLakewood defeated Bear Creek 62-32 in

a 5A Jeffco league meeting Friday at Lake-wood High School.

The Bears program has been revitalized this season, but they were taught a lesson against a Lakewood team that has become one of 5A Jeffco’s elite. Lakewood senior Ariel Rosa had 10 points and five steals, and senior Sabrina Trujillo chipped in with 11 points.

But the Bears (6-5, 3-2) have also proved themselves as a force in the league. After winning only a single game last season (1-22), Bear Creek is sitting over .500 this sea-son. Lakewood (9-3, 5-1) will play at Stand-ley Lake Friday at 5:30 p.m. Bear Creek will host Columbine Friday at 6 p.m.

SURGING RAMS BACK TO .500Green Mountain got their record back to

.500 with a 47-36 victory over Evergreen Fri-day at Green Mountain High School.

The Rams outscored Evergreen in the first, second and third quarter, before hold-ing off a late push by the Cougars.

Green Mountain senior Grace Mueller scored 18 points, and junior Kelli Van Tas-sel added 12 points in the victory. Green Mountain (5-5, 2-0) has now won three of their last four games, after dropping four of their previous five games. The surging Rams will play at Golden Friday at 5:30 p.m.

EAGLES GIVE UP LATE LEADFaith Christian suffered a 33-30 loss

Thursday to Eaton that will leave a bad taste in their mouth. The Lady Eagles led 25-22 going into the fourth quarter, but they were outscored 11-5 in the final quarter.

Faith Christian led for most of the action until late in the game when their offense stalled out and Eaton got hot.

Junior Cassuandra Rindels led the Eagles with 10 points.

Faith Christian (4-6) will play at Holy Family Friday at 5:30 p.m.

LOOKING FOR 1ST WIN OF 2013Jefferson fell to Colorado Academy 57-

29 Saturday at Colorado Academy High School.

The Saints went scoreless in the first quarter and were forced to play catch-up the rest of the contest.

After back-to-back victories in early De-cember Jefferson has since lost four straight games.

The Saints (2-7, 0-2) will attempt to get back on the winning track when they host Middle Park Friday at 5:30 p.m.

Boys hoops: Golden beats Alameda in Je�co showdownBy Daniel [email protected]

GOLDEN - Golden used a huge third quarter to beat Alameda 76-55 in a 4A Jef-fco matchup Wednesday at Golden High School.

The Demons outscored the Pirates 23-11 in the third quarter and never let Alameda back in the game, after a tightly played first half.Golden (5-5, 1-1) had four double-dig-its scorers including senior Tyler Richard’s 11 points and eight rebounds.

Alameda (5-4, 1-1) junior’s Marnath Rat and Morwail Arou each recorded 15 points, but Golden was too physical for the some-times-too-finesse Pirates, who live-and-die by the three.

The two teams will have a rematch at Alameda on Feb. 6. Alameda, who has won five of their previous seven games, will look for a victory when they host Arvada Friday at 7 p.m. Golden will play at Green Moun-tain Friday at 7 p.m.

BEARS CAN’T STEAL 2ND WINLakewood scored 20 points in the final

quarter and was able to avoid Bear Creek’s upset bid with a 52-49 win Friday at Lake-wood High School. Desperate for their sec-ond victory of the season, Bear Creek (1-12, 0-6) played their hearts out behind 23 points from junior DJ Miles. But Lakewood (6-6, 3-3) overcame the Bears’ slim first half lead and executed better down the stretch behind over a young Bear Creek varsity team that played only seven players. Bear Creek will host Lakewood in a 5A Jeffco re-

match on Feb. 12.The Bears will play at Columbine Friday

at 7 p.m. The Tigers will play at Stanley Lake Friday at 7 p.m.

SLIPPING AFTER STRONG STARTGreen Mountain boys’ basketball

couldn’t dig themselves out of a deep hole the team made in the second quarter and fell 59-47 Friday at Evergreen High School.

The Rams were outscored by 12 points in the second quarter (16-4) and they were un-able to erase the Evergreen lead in the sec-ond half. Green Mountain had three double digit scorers, but their defense allowed se-nior Andre Lane to beat them for 23 points and five steals.

After winning four of their first five games of the season Green Mountain (6-5, 1-1) has since dropped three of their last four games.

They hope to get back on track Friday at 7 p.m. at Golden High School.

BEAT UP - BUT BETTER FOR IT?There is beaten and there is beat up, and

Jefferson boys basketball was beat up at Denver Science & Tech Stapleton 97-49 on Friday.

Six of the seven Knights’ players scored in double figures, and DSTS scored at least 20 points in all four quarters.

Jefferson (4-3, 0-2) has to now try and put that ugly loss behind them and look to regain the form that gave them wins in four of their first five games of the season.

Jefferson has used 14 different varsity players this season.

Elected county o� cials on the job By Glenn Wallace [email protected]

Jefferson County commissioners took their oaths of office Jan. 8 and officially assumed their duties as winners in the November election.

First Judicial District Chief Judge Ste-phen Munsinger issued the oaths, with judges, politicians and attorneys swear-ing to uphold the state and federal consti-tutions as they carried out the duties for which they were chosen.

“This is a great day, where we get to see representative government in action,” Jefferson County District 3 Commissioner Donald Rosier said as he helped introduce Judge Munsinger to the packed room.

Among those in the audience were family members of the elected officials and visiting officials, including former Gov. Bill Ritter, former Sen. William Arm-strong, former Sen. Bill Schroeder, U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter, former Jefferson County DA Dave Thomas, and elected of-ficials from Lakewood, Arvada and Gold-en.

First District County Commissioner Faye Griffin, who ran unopposed for re-election, was sworn in to county office for the fifth time, having previously served as the county’s clerk and recorder and trea-

surer. Her family, including her husband, children, and a grandchild were in atten-dance, and posed with her for a picture after she took her oath.

“You, the citizens of Jefferson County have entrusted me with this office, and I thank you so much,” Griffin said.

Also sworn in was District 2 Commis-sioner Casey Tighe, who won a squeaker of a victory over appointed incumbent John Odom in November.

“Thank you for your trust. It’s very humbling, and I hope I can do a good job,” Tighe said, with his family by his side.

First Judicial District Judges Chris-topher Munch and Christie Bachmeyer Phillips also renewed their oaths of office, as did County Court judges Bradley Al-len Burback, Verna L. Carpenter, Tammy Greene, and K.J. Moore.

Newly elected District Attorney Peter Weir — who also ran unopposed — re-ceived a standing ovation before he even made it up to the judge to take his oath.

When told to raise his right hand, Weir’s 9-year-old daughter Kaelee showed a new level of family support, by also raised hers, earning some laughs from the audience.

Weir said he was trying to come up with something to say at the occasion, and Kaelee suggested telling everyone to save the planet by picking up trash.

Deer in a slippery spot is saved

By Glenn Wallace [email protected]

The National Western Stock Show does not have a competition named deer ice roping … yet.

On the morning of Jan.10, the same day as the stock show’s opening ceremony, a Lakewood Parks Ranger, along with as-sistance from Coors employees and the Colorado Parks and Wildlife inadvertently invented the sport as they rescued an un-fortunate deer who found himself in a slip-pery situation.

Offi cials received reports of the deer early that morning, stuck on the ice of a retention pond, near 32nd Avenue and Mc-Intyre Street.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife offi cials came out to check on the young stag. The deer could be seen occasionally trying to stand up, only to slip back down onto his haunches, according to Colorado Parks and Wildlife spokeswoman Jennifer Churchill.

“At one point a coyote actually came out on the ice and we were hoping it would startle the deer off, but he just tried to get up and slipped back down,” Churchill said.

Wildlife offi cials - not equipped or trained to rescue wildlife from an ice situ-ation - could only watch from shore and hope the deer had not already seriously

injured his legs on the ice. Churchill told news agencies that the outcome did not look positive for the animal.

“We just can’t endanger human life for wildlife,” Churchill said.

But help arrived from the city of Lake-wood, in the form of Park Ranger Todd Tay-lor

“We’re properly trained and have the right equipment, if something should hap-pen,” Taylor said.

That equipment includes a bulky ice rescue suit, designed to let rescuers better survive a plunge into frigid water.

It took two attempts, but Taylor man-aged to make his way out to the deer, and manage to rope its antlers.

“I actually have cattle so I’ve roped be-fore,” Taylor said. “Roping on the ice, in a rescue suit - it was fun!”

The 250-pound deer was then dragged on his haunches across the ice by the rescu-ers on shore. He was cut loose, and bound-ed away the second his hooves made it to solid ground. Taylor said he was happy that the story had a happy ending, but said too often it is a person who gets stuck out on the ice. In Lakewood for instance, the only ice deemed safe for the public is at Bear Creek Park.

“Be sure to check with your area to see where it’s safe to go out on the ice,” Taylor said.
