tower closure delayed Centennial Airport graveyard shift still ‘moving target’ By Deborah Grigsby

Centennial resident Ann Stong flips through the well-worn pages of a family Bible dating to 1864 that she never knew existed. Hundreds of miles away, a total stranger had spotted it on the auction block and tracked her down. Stong and her family drove to Arizona to bid on the piece that would eventually reconnect her with multiple generations of her family history. Photos by Deborah Grigsby

hen Ann Stong received an email from Mary Marsh last September, she almost deleted it. “I usually don’t open emails from strangers, but this one was different,” she said. “I had to open it.” More than 1,500 miles away, Arizona resident Mary Marsh had stopped by a local antique mall in hopes of finding a barrister’s case for her husband. “I saw this Bible and thought, `Wow, what a find for someone,’” said Marsh from her home near Scottsdale, Ariz. Printed in Philadelphia in 1864, the Bible’s worn calf leather cover and ornate brass lock held the key to many missing pieces in someone’s life, thought Marsh. “That afternoon, I just couldn’t get that book out of my head — in fact, I dreamed about it that night,” she said. “I didn’t dream about all the bookcases I had seen, I dreamed about the Bible.” Compelled to find the owner, Marsh spent hours entering some of the names she had seen in the Bible into several online search engines. “It was like there were angels on my shoulder telling me I had to do this,” she said. Marsh eventually connected some of the names with Stong, a Centennial resident. “So, I sent her an email with a link to the item and to the auction information,” she said.

Centennial resident Ann Stong found several historic photos of her ancestors in an 1864 Bible that was saved from auction by Arizona resident Mary Marsh. Tintypes were very popular in the United States, particularly during the Civil War, and were made by creating the image on a sheet of iron coated with emulsion.

The Federal Aviation Administration announced it will delay the closures of all 149 federal contract air-traffic control towers until June 15, and Centennial Airport Executive Director Robert Olislagers says he kind of expected it. According to an April 5 FAA statement, the additional time will give the agency an opportunity to resolve mounting legal challenges to the closure decisions that stem from the agency’s attempt to trim $637 million from the budget as part of federal sequestration. “I am not surprised by the date change, as the FAA has made several changes to dates and I can only speculate as to the reasons why.” Olislagers said. The agency noted that as part of the tower closure process, it will consult with airports and operators to review appropriate risk mitigations and give the FAA, as well as airports, more time to make changes to the

tax credit gets support Bill aims to boost employment at aircraft companies in state Nearly 150 years old, a Bible from Ann Stong’s family was rescued from an Arizona auction block through the actions of a stranger. Even with its weathered leather cover, the book’s pages are still in good condition, containing legible hand-written entries and historic tintype photos of Stong’s ancestors. Stong, an avid amateur genealogist whose family often teases her abut spending more time with her dead relatives than she does with those still living, was delighted. “I emailed her right back,” said Stong. “When I saw her photos of the Bible and inscriptions, I immediately recognized the names and the handwriting from documents I have in my own collection.” The two exchanged several emails and Stong decided she would make the 1,500mile trip to Avondale, Ariz. to attend the auction. Marsh was stunned. “I thought, `Oh my, gosh, I better be right,” she said. The morning of the auction came. Bidding for the Bible began at $30. Another bidder offered $40. “My heart just stopped,” said Stong. “I had no idea what I’d do if I couldn’t have that Bible.” Stong’s daughter countered with $50. The auctioneer stopped the auction, pointed to Stong and exclaimed, “Sold!” Before a stunned audience, the auctioneer offered an explanation, telling Stong’s story. But there was one more twist. The auction house offered to pay the consignment and give Stong the Bible as a gift. The crowd erupted in joy and Stong was overcome with emotion. “I cried,” said Stong. “I was just dis-

solved in tears.” Stong returned to Colorado with the book. “The binding was in pretty bad If you go shape and I had WhAt: “One Family’s Bible to ask people to Story”: Ann Stong will give a stop handling it.” presentation on genealWith the help ogy, her family Bible and of a local bookmementos that came with it binder, the Bible’s saddle stitching When: April 15, 1:30-2:30 has now been rep.m. placed and new Where: Holly Creek Retirepages added for ment Community future entries. 5500 E.

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com A bill that would expand tax incentives for the purpose of new hires in the state’s aviation field is flying through the Legislature with bipartisan support. House Bill 1080 modifies the 2005 Aircraft Manufacturer New Employee Tax Credit, which provides a one-time Report $1,200 tax credit for a new employee that is hired by an aircraft manufacturer. The bill expands the available tax incentives to manufacturers that provide aircraft maintenance, repair and modification services, which were not included in the bill from eight years ago. Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, a bill sponsor, said it’s important to extend the existing earned tax credits in an effort to attract high-paying jobs in a growing field, rather than having planes fly to other states just for the purposes of having repairs done. “We have to recognize that big carriers like United or Frontier, when they need to maintain an airplane, very often they’ll fly it

Bronco stands strong for kids W You don’t want to be a running back, or a slot receiver who has the audacity to enter the area of the gridiron that Denver Broncos linebacker Wesley Woodyard patrols. But if you’re a kid who lacks Peyton Manning-like protection from life’s hard knocks, don’t worry. Wesley’s got your back. Woodyard paid a visit to the state Capitol last week to show his support for a legislative resolution that designates April as Child Abuse Awareness Month. The resolution, which was adopted by the General Assembly, calls upon “all citizens to educate themselves on how they can be the one to make a difference in the life of a child, and prevent child abuse and neglect.” Woodyard is no stranger to causes involving children. He often advocates on behalf of CASA — Court Appointed Special Advocates for children — and for his own charity, 16 Ways, which benefits kids from underprivileged backgrounds. “To me, it’s important to step up and be a part of the community,” Woodyard said in a recent interview with Colorado Community Media. “It only takes one person to make a difference in a child’s life. And when you’ve been given the platform that I’ve been given, it’s important to take advantage of it.” State Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton, a sponsor of the resolution, is involved in many child welfare-related issues at the

Legislature. She said that awareness of these types of causes is heightened whenever community members of Woodyard’s stature are involved. “Sometimes it’s the celebrity or somebody who can draw the attention of the community,” Newell said. “And he has been a great addition to the child abuse prevention community because he’s drawing in people who are sometimes not necessarily involved.” About the only thing that rivals Woodyard’s impact in the community is his play on the field — especially on the heels of his performance last season. Woodyard, 26, a Broncos team captain, had a breakout season at weak-side linebacker. He had career numbers in categories that included tackles, sacks and interceptions. But then there’s the way the season ended. As a lifelong Broncos fan, I can honestly say that I still haven’t gotten over January’s playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens. I remember collapsing on my couch after the game, like my heart had just been ripped

out of my chest, straight out of some Aztec sacrifice ritual. Seriously, my voicemail and textmessage inbox was flooded that night with messages from concerned friends who were making sure that I hadn’t taken a leap from the top of downtown’s Republic Plaza. So, yes, it was a painful loss, to say the least — and that goes for the players, too. “It’s one of those things that I don’t think you get over,” Woodyard said. “But it motivates me. It motivates my teammates.” If the Broncos are going to advance further in the playoffs this season, they’re gonna have to do it without a key member of their defense. Pass rusher Elvis Dumervil, a fan favorite in the Mile City High since 2006, will be in a Ravens uniform this season, following a bizarre episode from last month that involved a signed, $8 million contract not being sent to the NFL in time for the league’s deadline. OK, so “bizarre” doesn’t do the incident justice. I mean, who transmits a document literally worth millions of dollars via a piece of machinery that gets less use out of it than a Donkey Kong Atari video game? What, carrier pigeons weren’t available? But, I digress. “I’m gonna miss Doom,” Woodyard said of Dumervil. “Doom was a role model to me. He taught me to be a man on and off the field. His leadership and play will be missed. “I talked to him the other day and I told him that I hope he breaks the sack record

Leg pen rel

in Baltimore, but not against us.” But there are plenty of things for Broncos fans to be excited about this season. Among them will be having another guy named Wes to cheer for on game days. “Oh, we’re very excited,” Woodyard said of the addition of Wes Welker to the Broncos receiving corps. “He’s an extreme By D competitor and we’re so happy to have him dgrig on board.” Re Not only is it gonna be nice to have the comp former New England Patriots standout of M on our team, Broncos players are just as thrilled about not having to defend against auth her C him. Ar “Absolutely,” Woodyard said, laughing. “I know (Broncos cornerback) Chris Harris is excited about that. Those guys had some battles.” Woodyard recognizes that he and the Broncos did a lot of good on the field last season. But don’t think for a second that he doesn’t want to accomplish bigger and better things. “When you think you’ve arrived, that’s when you hit bottom,” he said. “It was a good season, but I could have done so much more. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to be where I am, but I’m looking forward to this season.” Vic Vela is the legislative reporter for Colorado Community Media.

Woman’s neighbors stunned by death Legal action on hold pending suspect’s release from hospital By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Residents of an upscale condominium complex say they’re stunned at the death of Mae Kuroki, the 81-year-old woman who authorities believe was killed by her son in her Centennial home. Arapahoe County deputies were called

to her residence in the 8600 block of Dry Creek Road around 11 a.m. April 2 for a welfare check, according to Arapahoe County Undersheriff David Walcher. When authorities arrived, they found Kuroki’s body. “She was always out and about,” said Jeni Swanson, a neighbor who has lived in the same building as Kuroki for seven years. “Although I didn’t know her particularly well, she was always around, and very active — always on the treadmill in the gym or out by the pool, laughing and talking.” Kuroki’s 53-year-old son, David Wayne Kuroki, is a suspect in her death, according to a statement by the sheriff’s office.

While some neighbors describe an unusual uneasiness between Kuroki and her son, a former lab assistant at Littletonbased biotechnology company Novus Biologicals, Swanson said she saw a different side. “While didn’t know him (David) that well, I know he used to come over on Sundays and vacuum for her,” Swanson said. “She was very proud of her family and always spoke very highly of her son — that’s kind of why we don’t get it.” The younger Kuroki was taken into custody hours after his mother’s body was found. “He was transported to a local hospital

Arapahoe’s oil, gas procedures hit delay County takes more time to eye proposed amendment By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews. com The Arapahoe Board of County Commissioners on April 2 said it wants another four weeks to examine the details of a proposed Land Development Code amendment that would help open the doors to oil and gas exploration in the county. Although a memorandum of understanding and a formalized administrative policy have already been completed in cooperation with the oil and gas industry, the devil is in the details when it comes to the county’s “use by special review” process. “A couple of years ago, we started to see an increase in oil

and gas activity in eastern Arapahoe County and we developed some oil and gas regulations, which were not approved,” said Sherman Feher, a senior planner with the county public works and development division. “The BOCC directed us to work with the oil and gas industry, and part of the result was an MOU and an administrative process. Feher went on to explain at the April 2 public hearing that the county’s two options include the MOU, which he classified as a “work in progress,” and a “use by special permit” administrative process. “What this is, basically, is a quid pro quo situation,” he said. “Operators would agree to more stringent standards than the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission stipulates, then in exchange, the county would provide an accelerated administrative process with lower fees.” Thomas Dugan, an attorney

for ConocoPhillips, recommended the administrative approval process wording may need further clarification. While he agreed with the quid pro quo nature of the MOU, Dugan suggested the administrative approval process may not be equitable, offering the county the option to “get out of jail free” in some instances, but not the operator. Dugan offered three remedies,including: the entire section be deleted; provide the operator a “reciprocal out”; or for language to be further clarified. Assistant County Attorney Tom McNish acknowledged there were inconsistencies, but rather than approve the motion with the caveat for “minor editorial” changes, recommended a continuance for further legal review. The motion passed unanimously and has been slated for review on April 30.

and is being treated for self-inflicted injuries,” Walcher said. “We’re anxious to get on with the case, but given the circumstances, we’re in a holding pattern.” Kuroki has not been booked or charged yet, he added. “No details with regard to the manner and cause of death have been released, or will be released, until we’re absolutely certain such information will not compromise the investigation,” said Walcher. “We were all just so surprised when we heard it was Mae,” said Swanson, who described her neighbor as a tiny, dark-haired dynamo. “Yeah, she’ll be missed, for sure.”

Measure would extend work program Plan allows partial benefits for employees with reduced hours By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com State lawmakers have voted to renew a rarely used program that gives struggling businesses an alternative to laying off employees. Senate Bill 157, which has passed both chambers of the Democraticcontrolled General Assembly on party-line votes, would extend the Colorado Work Share Program indefinitely. The program gives businesses the opportunity to keep their workers at reduced hours, rather than laying them off altogether. Under the program, which businesses can enter into on a voluntary basis, employees receive prorated unemployment benefits to compensate for the loss of hours. Workers can receive up to 26 weeks of prorated unemployment

benefits through Colorado Work Share, under recent changes to the federally reimbursed program. Rep. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, D-Arvada, a House sponsor of the bill, said the program allows businesses that are going through a “temporary tough time” to keep skilled workers, instead of losing them. The Work Share program, which was put in place in 2010, and is administered under the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, had to be taken up again by the General Assembly because it is scheduled to sunset in July. Republicans are opposed to the continuation of the program. The bill passed the Senate without any GOP support in March, and again in the House on April 2. Rep. Brian DelGrosso, R-Loveland, said during a recent debate on the House floor that businesses that pay into the state’s unemployment insurance trust fund could essentially end up paying the wages for competitors’ workers.

Common kitchen remodeling mistakes to avoid By Kitchen Tune-Up www.kitchentuneup.com

Everyone’s heard the horror stories of the remodel that went wrong, very wrong; the contractor skips town with the deposit, the product doesn’t arrive and you wait months for a workable kitchen, bathroom, etc., the kitchen is left so dirty and in such disarray that it takes days to clean it up and feel like you can cook in it again. It doesn’t have to be that way! There are honest, hard-working contractors out there who are good at what they do and will make your kitchen, bath, or wood floor look spectacular for a reasonable price. So, what should you look out for when entrusting your beloved home to someone you don’t know? Here are five common mistakes you can avoid if you know about them in advance. We’ll also give you some tips on things you can do to ensure your remodeling experience is the best it can be. • Don’t expect your project to run perfectly. Problems do occur. If you get upset about a few days’ slippage, you will drive yourself insane. Remember, you will have this kitchen for a good number of years, so a few days here or there are insignificant to the overall result. The important thing is that your contractor is reacting to it, getting it handled and gets everything back on track as soon as possible. For example, your contractor pulls the old cabinets off and fi nds out there has been a leak that

has rotted the ﬂooring and joists under the floor, so everything stops until another company can come in and fi x it … if everyone is busy, it could be a week or more. You need to be prepared for the possibility that this type of problem can happen. • Don’t expect a working kitchen until the project’s done, so make arrangements for that. Cabinet refacing does not shut down your kitchen, but new countertops in addition to refacing will. You will probably be without running water and a sink for a few days. New kitchens are shut down on day one, as soon as the old cabinets are torn out. Depending on the countertop chosen, you’re typically looking at two to four weeks before you have a fully functional kitchen again. • Don’t start your remodel before you’ve chosen your appliances. Make sure you have the specs in the contractors’ hands prior to cabinets being ordered. This will result in a better fit for the appliance into the cabinets … especially wall ovens, built-in microwaves, cook tops, and large fridges. • Don’t pay for the entire project until the entire project is completed. Most projects will require you to make a significant down payment. This is normal, because the contractor has to place orders for products designed specifically for your kitchen. If you decided to withdraw from the project, he’d be stuck holding the bag. However, it is good policy to always leave a portion outstanding until the kitchen is finished. Ten percent is pretty typical. If you

have a problem giving your contractor a down payment, then you don’t trust him, and you should not be using him. • Don’t fall for the “big discount if you sign now” routine. Some remodeling companies offer huge discounts if you sign with them on the spot. If they offer an extremely large discount, it just means their price is too high to begin with. Remember, though, it is more cost-effective for the company to be able to wrap things up on the fi rst call, so a modest discount to save a second trip is reasonable, just use common sense. High-quality companies won’t use high-pressure tactics to get you to sign. Their product, service and references speak for themselves. Make sure you check out your contractor thoroughly in advance. Call their references, check from time to time, there are such things as “difﬁcult” or “unreasonable” clients. If a contractor has a bad comment or complaint, consider it against the length of time they’ve been in business and ask them to explain any issues you found. It is expected that on occasion, good contractors may have bad customers. If you see a pattern of complaints, however, you know you shouldn’t use that contractor. You should be comfortable with and “click” with the contractor you’ve chosen for your remodel. Make sure they have a good amount of experience, positive references and valid liability insurance if something does go wrong.

Tips to avoid injury while spring cleaning By StatePoint

Cleaning your home from top to bottom this spring? Do so with care. From falls off ladders to muscle pain, heavy-duty chores can be hazardous to your health and wellness if you’re not careful. So before you roll up – inyour sleeves and get into onathe thick of it, take a mogbird ment to review some essential safety precautions:

n va-

Avoid outdoor mishaps W hen mow ing the lawn, wear sturdy, closedtoe shoes. Clear your lawn of stones, toys and other potentially hazardous eren- debris before you begin, to prevent flying objects. addi- Keep children away from mid your yard while you’re Foli- mowing. Reduce the risk of a ladch as der fall by always using a They stable ladder. Be sure to keep use the correct height ladl beder for the job and follow all weight restrictions. Onreen- ly set ladders on level surfaces. Pay close attention to what you’re doing and climb up and down the ladder slowly and deliberately. Treat muscles right From lawn work to scrubbing floors, unusual repetitious motions can really take a toll, resulting in muscle pain or bruising. Treat your spring clean like a workout and stretch your

Photo courtesy of StatePoint major muscle groups before you get started. When lifting those boxes in your basement and any other objects with heft, bend at the knees to avoid throwing your back out. If a chore is causing you pain, stop what you’re doing. “Start out slowly to avoid placing a sudden demand on your muscles that are not use to this activity,” says Anne Meyer, MD who focuses on sports rehabilitation medicine. If you feel stiff or sore after a long day of reaching, bending and lifting, Dr. Meyer recommends minimizing physical activity, elevating an injured arm or leg, and treating the first sign of muscle pain by applying a quick absorbing topical muscle pain reliever like Arnicare Gel. Remember to take fre-

quent breaks. And end your long day with a relaxing bath. Clean safely Cleaning products can be extremely stringent, causing irritation to your eyes, nose and throat. If opting for natural alternatives, such as vinegar or lemons is not an option, use the harsher stuff with care. Open all windows when using harsh cleaning products, especially ammonia. Wear gloves and consider protecting your nose and mouth with a surgical mask. Place products out of reach when you’re not using them if you have pets or small children. By following a few safety measures, you can make your spring clean a rejuvenating experience.

How to make your garden more environmentally friendly By StatePoint Spring is here, which means it’s time to slip those green thumbs into some gardening gloves. And if you want to feel truly good about what you grow, consider upgrading your garden to be more planet-friendly. Here are some ideas to consider: Grow your own dinner Grow the vegetables, herbs and flowers that you would normally purchase for your dinner and floral arrangements. Local is more sustainable because it reduces the carbon footprint associated with transport. And you can’t get more local than your own backyard. Encourage pollination Pollination is crucial for agricultural production and the health of the ecosystem. Unfortunately, many pollinating insects are highly susceptible to environmental changes and have in recent years, suffered major population decline. You can help local pollinators thrive by planting a variety of native species of varying colors and shapes and reducing your use of pesticides. Be bird-friendly No garden is truly complete without

regular visits from birds. Encourage flying visitors by installing a feeder and bird bath. According to a study published in the Wilson Journal of Ornithology, billions of birds die annually worldwide from collisions with windows. So if you’re going to send out the mass invite to these beautiful creatures, don’t forget to make it hazardfree for their arrival. Without affecting the appearance of your home, you can make your windows safer for birds by applying static-cling decals. For example, WindowAlert creates decals that look like frosted glass to people, but brilliantly reflect UV light for birds. To create a complete visual barrier, consider filling in the gaps between decals with UV Liquid dots which are invisible to humans, but visible to birds. More information on preventing bird collisions can be found at www.WindowAlert.com. Compost By composting, you will not only reduce your home’s overall waste, you’ll also create a rich soil that can be used in your garden to cultivate plants naturally. Be careful what you compost, however. Sawdust from chemically treated wood, diseased plants, and even walnuts, when composted, can create soil that’s hazardous to both plants and people.

Amid tragedy is forgiveness, accountability Forgiveness itself is not often a topic in an editorial, but the recent words of Lisa Clements, wife of slain Colorado prisons chief Tom Clements, inspire food for thought. She stood with her two daughters by her side at her husband’s service March 25 in Colorado Springs and said, “We pray for forgiveness and peace for the family of the man suspected of taking Tom’s life, and we pray every day for forgiveness and peace in our own hearts.” She noted she shares her husband’s belief in redemption and the ability for the human heart to be changed. Her comments echo many other expressions of forgiveness in news reports

our view through the years. One surely was the reaction of the Amish community in Lancaster, Pa., after a 32-year-old gunman killed several girls in a one-room schoolhouse before killing himself in 2006. While the Amish community was not inclined to interact with the media, its stance was clear to not think evil of the gunman and instead pray for the shooter’s family,

question of the week

Will the Rockies be improved this season? The Colorado Rockies have a new manager and have brought in a number of new players for this season. We asked people at

several south metro-area locations if they thought the changes would help the Rockies play better baseball this year.

“I believe they will be a better team than they were last year. I believe new manager Walt Weiss will bring more energy to the team and I think they have made moves that have strengthened the pitching staff.” —Trevor Johnson, Denver

“I guess I think the Rockies will be better this season because I am always optimistic at the start of the season. I really like the attitude Walt Weiss has brought to the team. … I think they will win more than half their games this season.” — Brian Ewert, Centennial

“I do think they will be improved. Several top players are back from injuries and they have some new people on the roster. Also, Walt Weiss as the new manager will teach them to improve on the little things they have to do to win games.” —Tom O’Connor, Englewood

“I think the Rockies will do all right .... Pitching has improved and I believe Manager Walt Weiss will have the players working on fundamentals and he will show them how not to do those little things they do when they beat themselves.” —Doug Severinson, Elizabeth

April, don’t be cruel I happen to like April. I think April is a month of optimism, which is saying something, because I humbug just about everything. “If anything can go wrong, it will.” If I dropped one hundred slices of Wonder Bread coated with peanut butter, 98 of them would land peanut butter down. I know it. I’ve known two girls named April, and both of them were beautiful. Maybe that has something to do with it, why I like April. One of them, this is the absolute truth, was named April May. I think she was a June bride, and took the name of her husband, which messed up one of the greatest names ever. I guess April May sounds like it could be the name of an adult film star too. T. S. Eliot wasn’t as thrilled with April as I am. He wrote “The Waste Land” in 1922, and it starts this way: April is the cruellest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain At the time Eliot was writing “The Waste Land” his marriage was failing, and he was suffering from a nervous disorder. There you go. Of course he’s not going to write “April is the coolest month” if he is miserable. He could have been referring to Tax Day-month too. Income tax became permanent in 1913 with the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution, and income tax day typically falls on April 15. I always enjoy seeing stories about people who file at the last minute, driving to the post office, and saying, “Whew!” I finish my tax returns in February. I have an accountant, a great accountant. “Why don’t you just use TurboTax?” I was asked. “Because I have a great accountant,” is always my answer. My accountant and his daughter have been doing my taxes for over 20 years. I would miss them. I am right-brained, so tax codes and forms are a foreign language. My accountant approaches taxes very differently than I ever could. He works with numbers the way I work with colors. He seems to enjoy it, navigating information into compliancy.

I have decided that I will paint for another 10 years, and then quit. And then there will be no more deductions for paintbrushes and stretcher bars. I might be able to do my own taxes again, like I did when I was in college. Clip a W-2 to a one-page form, and be done in five or ten minutes. That would be a relief. But right now I have a slew of categorized envelopes, that turn into rounded-off numbers, that detail every thing I spent and earned as a artist. I’m giving April the benefit of the doubt, and I doubt everything. I think there are crueler months, for one thing. July and August? You can have them. If I had to live in St. Louis in July and August, my poem would start out, “July and August are the cruellest months, and the Cardinals are 16 games back.” April is OK with me. Winter is over, and things are blossoming. It’s impossible to be a total grouch when things are blossoming. The derivation of the name is uncertain, but the belief is it comes from the Latin aperire, “to open,” which makes sense, because it’s the season when trees and flowers begin “to open.” April has become infamous for another reason, namely 4:20 p.m. on April 20. Be sure to have some Cheetos handy. Ironically, April is “National Poetry Month.” Somewhere a poet will recite “The Waste Land” to an audience, that might not agree with her, because right outside the lilacs are lilacking away.

which was further conveyed by neighbors who interacted with the tight-knit community. Some Amish even reached out to comfort the family of the gunman. Although the level of forgiveness to some surely seemed too generous, it seemed to quiet the surrounding community as it respectfully honored the perspective of its neighbors, the direct victims of the shooting. We noticed a similar effect following Lisa Clements’ thoughtful statements. The complex mix of grieving, accountability and forgiveness is too much for any one editorial, but we venture to say the heart does not so quickly follow the mind once someone has decided to forgive.

And while each person’s offer of forgiveness is based on various factors — such as whether remorse is expressed — a commitment to forgiveness reflects the best in all of us, a step toward mending and somehow improving the future to come. In a recent CNN interview, Lisa Clements said she could be enraged but chooses not to be angry with news that an errant court proceeding allowed the gunman to be released from prison four years early. She said she will not let it consume her. While she supports this need for accountability, we admire her strength as she champions a commitment to forgiveness and the steadfast view she shared with her husband that people can change.

Finding the right level of tolerance So what is an acceptable level of tolerance? I guess the answer is really situational, as in some instances we can be or become extremely tolerant and in other cases find our patience being tried and maybe even fried. Thresholds vary based on our personality and are shaped by our life experiences. For example, someone who has been living with chronic pain or frequent injuries may have built up a tolerance to pain. Treatments and therapies that used to be exceedingly painful have become more tolerable. Aches and pains that were so severe that they sidelined us from life’s activities have given way to our desire to do more. I know many people in this very situation right now. They are suffering from bad backs, hips, knees, cancer, diabetes and other debilitating diseases. I have seen these same people rise to the occasion and get themselves to an acceptable level of tolerance associated with their pain. The pain or hurt doesn’t go away, it’s just that over time they have conditioned themselves to accept as much as they possibly can. What about at work? Where do we draw the line and hold people accountable for performance and productivity? What is our acceptable level of tolerance when either our staff or our managers are not working at the expected level of performance? We can choose to ignore it and hope it will get better, which never works, or we can have a calm and productive discussion and re-set expectations for everyone. I know for me personally, as a leader or manager and even as an employee, I always felt like others were not keeping up with my pace. This included my managers and senior executives. In this case it was not a matter of having a discussion with others and re-setting expectations, it was about me realizing that I needed to adjust my acceptable level of tolerance. Once I made that adjustment and got to that point of acceptance, I became less resentful and much more productive.

How much are we tolerating in our relationships? Do our partners, spouses, children, parents, and friends support us and do everything they can to make us feel appreciated, respected and loved? And if not, do we accept that, sweep it under the rug, and again hope that it gets better? It never works. We need to share with everyone what we are willing to accept and tolerate and what we are not. And as difficult as that may sound, once the conversations have happened in most cases things will begin to get much better. And as a consumer, as a customer, what is our acceptable level of tolerance? We can choose to continue to shop or eat or drink at places where we don’t feel appreciated and receive poor service, or we can decide that there are probably better options, a store, restaurant or bar where the attention to customer service and quality surpasses our expectations. The point is this: We are in control. We get to determine what we will accept and what we will not. We set the thresholds of tolerance, not anyone else. It is a freeing and liberating feeling when we finally get to that point and our opportunities to enjoy life increase proportionally. How about you — what are you willing to tolerate? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and my hope is that this will be a better than good week for you.

Obama promotes gun control in Denver visit President praises state legislators for new laws By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews. com President Barack Obama talked about gun violence during a speech in Denver on April 3, while lauding recent gun-control measures that have been signed into state law, and touting Colorado as being “a model of what’s possible” at the national level. The president’s remarks at the Denver Police Academy highlighted gun laws that soon will go into effect in the state, including those that institute universal background checks on gun sales and place limits on high-capacity ammunition magazines. Citing recent massacres like last year’s shootings in Aurora and Connecticut, Obama said it’s now time for Congress to take up similar gun measures for implementation at the national level. “Every day that we wait to do something about it, even more of our fellow citizens are stolen from our lives by a bullet from a gun,” Obama said. In Colorado, gun-control bills have dominated headlines this legislative session. So far, Gov. John Hickenlooper has signed three bills that have passed the Democratic-controlled General Assembly. Republicans scoff that

President Barack Obama addresses police officers and other audience members during a speech at the Denver Police Academy on April 3. During his remarks, the president touted recent gun-control measures that have been passed by the Colorado General Assembly. Photo by Vic Vela the gun measures are nothing but “feel-good” efforts that only hinder law-abiding citizens’ ability to obtain guns, while doing nothing to get the weapons out of the hands of criminals. Obama’s visit was met with some protests outside the police academy. And, earlier in the day, several Colorado sheriffs held a press event, denouncing further gun-control efforts. But Obama sees value in passing gun measures. He said Congress needs to

address the loopholes in the current national background-check system for gun purchases, as Colorado legislators have done with recent legislation here. Obama said that if a person wants to buy a gun, “you should at least have to go through a background check to show that you’re not a criminal, or someone legally prohibited from buying one.” The president cited statistics that indicate background checks often do keep guns out of the hands

of dangerous people. “So, this does work,” he said. “And, by the way, if you’re selling a gun, wouldn’t you want to know who you’re selling it to? Wouldn’t you want in your conscience to know that the person you’re selling to isn’t going to commit a crime?” Obama also said highcapacity ammunition magazines have no place in our communities. “I don’t believe that weapons designed for theaters of war have a place in movie theaters,” he said to

applause. “Most Americans agree with that.” The president acknowledged the polarizing nature that surrounds the gun-control debate. He said Colorado is a state where hunting is a tradition, and where guns are “handed down from generation to

generation.” “And they treat gun ownership with reverence and respect,” he said. At the same time, Obama said it’s important for people to understand where the other side is coming from on these issues. “There doesn’t have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights,” the president said. Among those who attended the speech were Hickenlooper and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder. The two took part in a round-table discussion on gun issues that involved Obama, prior to the president’s speech. Others taking part in the discussion were police and Colorado citizens whose lives have been affected by gun violence. Several state legislators also were attendance, including Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora. Fields — whose son was shot to death in 2005 and who sponsored some of the state’s gun legislation — said she felt that her work has been validated by Obama’s trip. “I feel really good about what we did here in the state of Colorado,” Fields told reporters. “And I think the rest of the nation should follow suit.”

Turley declares District 1 candidacy Champion of seniors, fiscal responsibility first in race By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Longtime Centennial resident and seniors’ advocate Kathy Turley has announced her candidacy for District 1 City Council. Turley, a Republican, served on many of the city’s inaugural boards, including Centennial’s Home Rule Charter Commission. She hopes to fill the vacancy that will be created when Councilmember Rick Dindinger’s term expires in January 2014. The nonpartisan election will be held in November. “While District 1 is only a part of a bigger picture, I want make sure the decisions I make are well-balanced,” said Turley. “For example, District 1 is

on the west side and much of that area is already built out. On the east side, there’s a lot of growth and development happening.” Turley cites “good stewardship of taxpayTurley er dollars” among her priorities for the city. “Any decisions that involve taxpayer dollars should be thoughtful decisions — decisions that are based not only economic conditions, but the overall needs of the community,” she said. Turley said she also supports the city’s current “wait and see” approach to Amendment 64, the statewide vote to legalize recreational marijuana, reiterating the need to examine both sides of the controversial issue. Also a strong advocate for fiscal responsibility, Turley insists the words “tax and spend” are not in her vo-

cabulary and there will be “no blank checks” for government on her watch. Turley was appointed by Gov. Bill Owens to the Colorado Commission on Aging and served as his delegate to the White House Conference on Aging. She is a past member of the Denver Regional Council of Governments Area Agency on Aging Advisory Board and a member of the Arapahoe County Council on Aging speakers’ bureau and InnovAge Advisory Council. “Every seven seconds someone is turning 60,” said Turley. “Approximately 10,000 people a day are turning 65, and 30 percent of the population of Centennial is over 50. Whether you are a senior, caring for a senior or thinking about the upcoming golden years, you will need a voice at the table — I will be your voice.” Turley is a retired sales executive for Kaiser Permanente.

Tower: List changed after initial round Tower continues from Page 1

National Airspace System, which oversees the nation’s air traffic. In March, four Colorado airport towers were on the FAA’s hit list; Broomfield and Front Range were designated for closure, and Centennial and Colorado Springs for elimination of the overnight shift. When the final list came out, neither Front Range nor Broomfield appeared on the list. “There were two closure lists,” explained Olislagers, who has been critical of the FAA’s sweeping decisions. “The contract tower closure list got all the attention because of its quick deadline and because it affected airports unilaterally.” The second list involved nighttime shutdowns of some 160 towers, including Centennial’s. “The tower is in the process of conducting a staffing study in relation to its operating hours, which is

The FAA has announced it will delay closing 149 control towers across the country until June 15. While not tagged for closure, Centennial’s tower may lose its overnight shift. Courtesy Blue Dharma Photography currently 24/7,” Olislagers said. If the FAA follows its initial proposal, Centennial would cease overnight operations, shutting down from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. The results of that study are expected sometime in early summer. “We are right on the cusp,” Olislagers said. “We will make a concerted effort to keep the tower open.” He said the FAA’s final decision is due in June or July, “but don’t hold your breath.”

to Wisconsin or Chicago to do the work there, and then bring it back,” he said. “I think it’s ridiculous that Colorado is losing out on those job opportunities. Why not do that maintenance, why not do more of that final fit and finish kind of work while they’re on the ground here?” Holbert said he was approached about the idea for the bill by representatives from Centennial Airport, which has runways that extend into Holbert’s Douglas County legislative district. Airport Executive Director Robert Olislagers said Colorado is in a tough competition with other states for tax incentives for aviation jobs. “Twelve hundred dollars in tax credits doesn’t sound

like a whole lot,” Olislagers said. “But, if you add that in with other incentives that Colorado counties are providing, it starts to add up.” Olislagers also said he hopes the bill will create more aviation jobs for veterans, especially when it comes to work that involves modifications of military aircraft. The bill passed the Democratic-controlled House on April 5 by a vote of 61-2, with two members excused from the vote. “It’s a growing industry in Colorado,” said bill cosponsor Rep. Tracy KraftTharp, D-Arvada. “This bill helps aircraft manufacturers by being able to hire employees.” The bill now heads to the Senate, where it will be sponsored by Republican Sen. Ted Harvey of Highlands Ranch.

Bill would punish outsourcing on state projects Contractors uneasy with provisions of measure By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com

Democratic lawmakers on April 8 unveiled legislation aimed at promoting local hiring and putting in place penalties for contractors who outsource work involving state projects, when avoidable. But, so far, the so-called Keep Jobs in Colorado Act has been met with uneasiness by representatives of the contracting field, who are expressing concern over key agersrequirements of the legislation and worry that the bill could run up the cost of doing s itsbusiness with the state. nten- House Bill 1292 was announced at a Capnightitol press conference, where it was touted as downa bill that will “reform state procurement,” the bidding process for state work projects. tudy Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver, said the legme inislation will “promote local hiring, domestic manufacturing, and will help stop the theoutsourcing of jobs with taxpayer money.” “We “Our number one job is boosting our effortstate’s economy and connecting more Col.” oradans to good jobs,” Pabon said. “One finalway to do that is to ensure that state funds, ne orour taxpayer dollars, go to hire Colorado your

workers and support Colorado businesses.” The bill would expand the state’s “best value” bidding process, to include factors beyond low bidding in awarding contracts, such as the availability of Colorado workers and whether domestic materials like iron and steel are being used for state-backed projects. The bill also would put in place financial Report penalties for companies that do not meet a current legal threshold, which requires that 80 percent of all taxpayer-backed state project labor be conducted by Colorado workers. Sen. Andy Kerr, D-Lakewood, said that the 80 percent requirement has been on the books since 1933, but that the jail penalty for company owners who do not abide by the law has not been enforced. Kerr said the bill would replace jail time with financial penalties for companies that do not comply, with fees as high as $25,000 when violations are found. “We are putting some teeth into a law that is already in existence,” Kerr said. “And we are making sure that it is feasible for it to be followed, as well.”

Capitol

‘Our number one job is boosting our state’s economy and connecting more Coloradans to good jobs.’ State Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver The bill takes a “three strikes and you’re out” approach to companies that do not comply with the law, which could result in a company no longer being able to do business with the state. Enforcement will be up to the state Department of Personnel and Administration and the state Department of Labor and Employment. “If somebody violates those rules, there’s going to be consequences,” Pabon said. But representatives of the contracting field were not exactly jumping out of their seats with excitement over the bill, during a legislative committee hearing that followed the press event. Some had neutral positions on the bill, saying they just don’t know enough about the legislation or its cost to form an opinion at this time. But they did express concern over the 80 percent requirement, especially over how it’s enforced. Some who testified said that, for example, it would be difficult for contractors

to ensure they are working with Coloradobased materials. “That’s a complicated process,” said Craig Clark of Dynaelectric, an electrical contracting company. “We have a tough enough time identifying a U.S. project.” Republican members of the House State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee also expressed concern that contractors would be penalized over things that would be difficult for them to control, such as whether those in the process are being honest about whether labor and materials are Colorado-based. “There’s absolutely no way in this free market system that everyone is going to be truthful,” said Rep. Ray Scott, R-Grand Junction. “It gets into the weeds so deep and puts such a burden on a general contractor.” The committee ran out of time during the hearing and will vote on the matter at another time.

Play spotlights music legend Hank Williams drama offers humor, sadness By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Hank Williams: Lost Highway” is onstage at Lone Tree Arts Center through April 14 — a revisit of a show originally workshopped at the Denver Center for Performing Arts in 1986/87. Director Randal Mylar and music director Dan Wheetman took it to the Manhattan Ensemble Theatre offBroadway in 2002, and it has played across the U.S. in subsequent years. They recently brought the John Denver Holiday Concert to Lone Tree. The production, co-produced by Starkey Theatrix and Lone Tree Arts Center, shows the polish it has acquired, featuring an Equity cast of experienced performers who make it all look easy as they revisit the music and life of this extremely talented/ extremely conflicted American legend. Hank Williams shot to the national scene from backwoods Alabama, recording a total

Tickets start at $29, 720-509-1000, LoneTreeArtsCenter.org/hank. of 35 singles. After a stretch on Grand Ole Opry — and being fired from that show — he died of an overdose in the back seat of his baby blue Cadillac at age 29. Of those 35 songs, 11 hit number one and have become part of our national fabric, and the 20 songs interwoven into this smoothly composed biographical story all sound familiar. Backed by a versatile band, Hank sings of loneliness and sadness, “Lovesick Blues,” as well as some upbeat numbers such as “Hey Good Lookin’.” Ryan Nearhoff, a New York-based actor and musician, certainly resembles the online photos of Williams. He is believable in song style and in his picture of a man disintegrating publicly due to alcohol and drugs. His backup band members — who eventually had to give up on him — are all well-de-

veloped characters, and three of them have toured with this production elsewhere. Mama Lily, who helped launch Hank’s career, is played by Denver favorite Kathleen Brady, who belts out songs with spirit throughout. His wife Audrey, who also tied into his career, is played by Jamie Ann Romero, and the waitress in Pete’s Diner, who enjoys Hank’s radio broadcasts and dances to the rhythms at the front edge of the stage, is award-winning Denver actor Rhonda Brown. Mississippi Charles Bevel plays blues singer Tee-Tot, who taught Hank to play the guitar and sing early on. He is woven into the storyline intermittently from his corner of the stage. Denver audiences know him from the fine production of “It Aint Nothin’ But the Blues” produced some years ago at the Denver Center. Humor and sadness mix in this account of an American favorite. It is skillfully staged, with an overlay of lighting that gives the production a soft patina. It merits a visit for the quality of performances.

sellingboe@ourcolorado news.com “Whitewash,” is Patricia Aaron’s title for a group of six new ink and encaustic paintings to be exhibited in a group show at Space Gallery in Denver’s Santa Fe Arts District, where she is a new member. The exhibit runs from April 19 to June 1. She will be present at an opening reception from 6-9 p.m. April 19. She writes that the new works were inspired by a recent trip to Key West, where she explored behind the tourist facades to find exuberant street art, graffiti, filling walls along alleys, underpasses and schoolyards. Whitewash is the community’s method to eradicate the art. For more than 20 years, Aar-

Greek, Roman and Egyptian civilizations. Her chosen medium for interpreting her responses to

graffiti is a combination of ink and encaustic — beeswax with pigment — layered precisely to present rich, sometimes translucent effects. Her works are abstract, with suggestions of words and other markings buried in them. This technique of making art dates to ancient times and retains shape and color. The painter melts beeswax, adds pigment to small batches and brushes it on a panel in thin layers. When a layer is completed, it is carefully heated with a torch to seal the color. The end result is a complex, inviting painting with a rich, smooth, almost glassy surface through which one can see previously applied layers of color and texture.

Remember when “take me out to the ball game” meant a meal of peanuts and crackerjack along with a hot dog and beer? So imagine what a healthy home run that Aramark, Coors Field’s exclusive concessionaire, is hitting with the introduction of a sustainable garden located at Gate A of the ball field. The Colorado Rockies and Aramark have partnered with The Institute for the Built Environment at Colorado State University and Designs by Sundown to produce the on-site garden, which will provide the concessionaire with herbs and vegetables for use in Coors Field’s Mountain Ranch Club menu and build-your-own salad station. The design of “The Garden,” which is its official name, mimics a baseball stadium, with raised beds terracing upward from The Garden’s “infield” to the outfield and then to the stands. Ornamental flowers, followed by herbs, followed by vegetables will be on display for fans that pass through Gate A over the course of the Rockies’ season. The beds will be constructed of beetle kill pinewood sourced from Morgan Timber Products of Fort Collins. The plantings will be propagated at CSU from seeds adapted to the Colorado climate. The installation of The Garden marks a further commitment by the Rockies and Aramark to develop environmentally friendly programs in alignment with Major League Baseball’s recent green focus. On the other side of the snack spectrum, Aramark has added plenty of indulgent items that first were offered with last the April 5 home opener. They are: • Sausage on a stick — Italian, smoked cheddar, spicy Polish sausage. • Carnitas nachos — tortilla chips smothered in green chili queso topped with pork carnitas, jalapenos, pico de gallo and sour cream. • Smothered empanada — topped with former Bronco Mark Schlereth’s Stinkin’ Green Chili, shredded lettuce, pico de gallo and sour cream. • Pizza nachos — fresh fried pizza dough chips topped with house-made marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella, diced pepperoni and sausage. • Rib eye sandwich — a 4-ounce rib eye served with sliced Havarti horseradish cheese, topped with onion tanglers and tangy gold barbecue sauce. • Souvenir refillable popcorn.

Laird lands at Sarto’s

Since talented chef Brian Laird left Barolo Grill, after a 12-year stint in command of the kitchen, he bounced around Denver’s dining scene between the nowshuttered Russo’s in the Vallagio development in Arapahoe County to the nowshuttered RockBar on East Colfax to Sketch at 101 Broadway. I don’t think that Laird knew what he wanted to do when he grew up. But the boy wonder (he looks younger than his years) finally has landed at a spot I think he can call home. Sarto’s, a northern Italian eatery poised to open in the fall in a vacant century-old property at the corner of Eliot Street and 25th Avenue, will be the centerpiece of an emerging neighborhood between Highland and Sports Authority Field. Laird and majority owners Taylor Swallow and Kjsa Gotlin share a passion for northern Italian cuisine, which will be adapted to reflect contemporary tastes. Parker continues on Page 19

WE ARE NEW TOWN BUILDERS. R

We’re inspired by classic Colorado architecture and passionate about cra smanship. Yet we geek out on the latest technology and sustainable building techniques. The thicker walls in our New Town Builders’ high performance homes allow for 60% more money-saving insula on than in a conven onal home, and our roof is 6 inches higher than a typical home, so we can get 2 ½ mes MORE insula on in the a c. This reduces heat loss, and more importantly, reduces your energy bill! Talk to us about building your (surprisingly aﬀordable) energy-eﬃcient new home.

Buying a home? Avoid these mistakes

he dream of home ownership is one that lives on in spite of the global economic struggles. The process of buying a home can be an emotional roller coaster ride, with feelings of excitement

mixed in with exhaustion, fear and uncertainty. Over the last several years, the real estate market has been turned upside down, and many prospective buyers have begun to question some of the conventional wisdom associ-

ated with buying a home. While such skepticism might be a healthy attitude in the current market, prospective buyers -- particularly those who have never purchased a home before -should avoid the following mistakes that buyers make

regardless of whether the market is up or down. * Failure to get qualified beforehand. Mortgage qualification is essential when buying a home, as it gives buyers preapproval for a loan before they make any offers. Making an offer on a home before you know what the bank is willing to lend you is a waste of time for everyone involved, including you, the seller and the real estate agents involved. Some agents will not show a home if you don’t have a preapproval. Once preapproved for a loan, don’t take any steps that might put that approval in jeopardy. This includes anything that might drastically alter your credit score. * Being blindsided by additional costs. Firsttime homebuyers, once they have moved into their home, often experience some sticker shock when the additional expenses associated with home ownership arise. These additional expenses include property tax and insurance costs and can be substantial. Even those buying a condominium or co-op should expect monthly maintenance fees

even if their new place is brand new and needs no maintenance. * Shooting for the moon. The ongoing recession is in part the result of predatory lending that saw banks grant excessive loans to applicants who, in hindsight, could not actually afford all that they were approved to borrow. The result was many people buying homes they could not afford, and then suffering some steep consequences, including foreclosure, when the first mortgage payment came due or the interest rate rose. First-time and even veteran buyers must avoid shooting for the moon when it comes to buying a home, and instead only buy one they know they can afford. What the banks says you can afford isn’t always the same as what you know you can afford. Only buy a home you know you can afford, regardless of whether the bank has approved you for a larger loan. * Pigeonholing yourself into an inadequate living situation. Just like buyers shouldn’t go overboard, they also must avoid compromising on the things that are most important to

them. For example, many of today’s buyers, fully aware of the rash of foreclosures and all the housing horror stories of the last several years, are reticent to commit to a home, and might compromise with a condo or co-op. But if a home is what you really want, and another living situation that mirrors apartment life is going to make you miserable, don’t settle for that situation for the sake of security. Doing so could cost you financially, especially when you realize the situation isn’t what you’d hoped for and look to sell earlier than is ideal. * Skimping on the cost of an inspector. An inspector is your last chance to find out if a home is your dream home or a money pit. Even if a house appears to be everything you want, don’t close on the sale until the house has been thoroughly inspected. The old adage that advises against judging a book by its cover certainly applies to buying a home, and prospective buyers should enlist the services of a qualified inspector before closing on the sale of a home. ■ Metro Creative Services

Littleton High senior honored at concert ‘Director threw a French horn at me,’ young musician jokes By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Caroline Baker, a senior at Littleton High School, will be celebrated as the Young Artist contest winner when she performs with the Denver Concert Band on April 20 at the Lone Tree Arts Center. She will play Richard Strauss’ “Horn Concerto No. 1 in E Flat Major” with the band, conducted by associate director Ken Kopatich of Littleton, a retired Jefferson County music educator and longtime band member. Kopatich said the band sent out about 2,000 flyers to high school musicians throughout the state and Baker was the top contestant on what Kopatich describes as a difficult instrument. “You play six or seven notes with a valve, which requires a good ear,” he said. Baker was a finalist in the Arapahoe Philharmonic’s Collegiate Concerto Competition, scoring well against college musicians.

dard Middle School, she discovered she could skip gym if she played in the school orchestra. “The director (Mike Farrell) threw a French horn at me and the rest is history,” she says with a laugh. She played with her school orchestra through 10th grade at Littleton High School and then joined the Denver Young Artists Orchestra, where members have contact with Colorado Symphony professionals. She also was a member of the All State Orchestra and All State Band, Kopatich said. Her director at Littleton High was Don Emmons, and she has studied privately with Susan McCullough, a French horn teacher at DU’s Lamont School of Music. She has been accepted by the highly selective Eastman School of Music in Rochester, N.Y. — a school that only accepts 13 percent of applicants each year. Baker’s summer plans include a return visit to the Kendall Betts Horn Camp in New Hampshire for three weeks of intensive training, plus another horn symposium. In addition to Baker’s concerto selection, the band, directed by Jacinda Bouton, will perform on a theme of “The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea,” with the satanic side represented by Robert W. Smith’s “Divine

“How cool to have a license to legitimately have fun! ... It’s hard work, yes — you develop a work ethic — but you never get to a place where it’s drudgery. … Playing music — if you’re not having fun, it’s not worth it.” Those are words of Marty Magehee, a veteran of the music industry and, as of 2011, on the faculty of Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch. He is scheduled to share his expertise by teaching a songwriting class for adults this spring. His enthusiasm is contagious. He is a gold album artist due to his long association with the Christian music quartet 4HIM, which traveled across the nation performing 250 and more concerts a year. “At five years, we leveled out at 250,” he said. “By then three of us were married and starting families. … In the 20 years we sang tol 20. gether we gave more than 4,200 concerts.” The group performed regularly in Colorado, and Magehee says when he was first odg-married, he was writing songs about ColoRock

Musician Marty Magehee, Valor Christian faculty member, will teach songwriting in a new adult education series. Courtesy photo rado. Denver First Church of the Nazarene in Cherry Hills Village was a familiar stop. At Valor Christian, he has developed a sophisticated recording studio where the class will meet. He calls it “makeshift” as he anticipates the building of a dedicated space in the projected new art building,

which will be built as soon as funding is secured. The goal for the class: Each student will have written or be part of writing several songs by the end. Development of a core idea, how to recognize “the money idea,” (an industry

term), create 20 lines plus the chorus … “nail down the look that makes it happen ….” One and one half focused hours on Wednesday nights for six weeks are scheduled. From a musical family, Magehee taught himself to play the guitar and piano and eventually majored in trumpet performance. He also has a degree in music education. At Valor, he teaches songwriting, advanced worship band, studio recording — beginning and advanced. He hopes to make the studio appealing to Nashville music pros, who might want to come here to do projects — song by song or, when up and running, full projects. Also offered are two other classes: “Core Photography” with Brian Rowden and “Intro to Graphic Design” with Mary Kate Dick. All three will be offered from 7-8:30 p.m. on Wednesdays. Each class costs $250 for six weeks.

Warriors win city track meet Arapahoe takes first in boys, girls team totals; Heritage second By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Arapahoe’s track team scored points in most events as the Warriors took top honors in the boys’ and girls’ team standing at the April 5 City of Littleton track meet. In 2002, the City of Littleton Track Meet became a six-team meet as the three Littleton district schools — Arapahoe, Heritage and Littleton — were joined by nearby Jefferson County schools Columbine, Chatfield and Dakota Ridge. In this year’s meet, the Warriors boys took top honors with 147.5 points to regain the meet title after losing it to Heritage last year. The Eagles captured runner-up honors by scoring 120 points. Chatfield was third, Littleton fourth, Columbine fifth and Dakota Ridge sixth. In the girls competition, the Warriors piled up points in field events and on the track as they won the meet time title for the fourth year in a row by scoring 211.25 points. Heritage took second place in the team standings with 120 points. The Dakota Ridge girls were third, Chatfield was fourth, Littleton was fifth and Columbine was sixth. Going into this year’s meet, each of the coaches for the three Littleton district schools gave early-season evaluations of how they felt their teams were shaping up. This year’s Warrior girls team is talented, particularly in middle and long distances, coach Steve Lienemann said. “Our girls are really working well as individuals and with their teammates,” he said. “I know it is early, but our 4 X 400 and our 4 X 800 relay teams are rated as best in state, as is our medley relay team.” Devon Foster helped her team’s point total by winning the 1,600-meter run in a time of 5:18, with teammate Emily Wolff a close second. In field events, Brianna Borcic posted a first-place finish in the girls

Christian Martin leads the field down the home stretch in the 1,600-meter run at the March 5 Littleton meet. The Heritage Eagles took second in boys and girls team standings. pole vault. Lienemann said the Warriors also had a strong boys team. He said the distance runners will score points and he expects his young sprinters to score points for him. He said the Warriors have strong performers in several field events. Two Arapahoe athletes, Zachary Ray and Nathan Forest, helped their team as they finished one-two in the pole vault. Coach Art Vigil said the Littleton Lions have a talented boys team, but the majority of the girls team is young athletes. “The boys team is particularly strong in the sprints,” he said. “We have D’Angelo Deniro running in the 100 and the 200, plus we have a strong performer in Jack Robb, who runs the 400 and the 800.” Deniro and Robb joined forces with Jake Bergman and Barry Visser to win the 4 X 200 relay and reunited to win the 4 x 400. Lion

hurler Casey Thompson Comstock Thompson placed in the discus and won the shot put event. The Lions coach said the girls team has a lot of young athletes in individual events and will run well in relays. The coach’s prediction was on target as Rosa Hardason, Elizabeth Ballendonk, Emily Burch and Elizabeth Rothrock captures runner-up honors in the 4 x 400 relay. Vigil said he also expected Elsie Mangum to be a top contender in the discus and shot put. In the city meet, she won the shot put and finished third in discus. Heritage coach Kevin Young said he expects the Eagles to be competitive, but it is almost too early in the season to decide how good his top performers will be. However, he said the boys team includes quality depth in all areas, and Christian Martin should be a top contender in the long-distance races.

Casey Thompson-Comstock made a throw of 49 feet in the shot put competition at the March 5 Littleton track meet. The Littleton athlete’s throw earned him first place in the event. “We have good kids on the roster but the makeup of our relay teams is still a work in progress,” he said. “I expect it’ll take about a month of practices and meets to establish firm relay lineups.” However, his decision on who should team up for the 4 x 800 relay was on target, as the Eagles won the event. The team point total was also helped as Martin came on strong down the stretch to win the 1,600-meter run. Young said the Eagles girls roster is thin and most of the athletes are young. In the city meet, Logan Torres was third in the 100-meter dash while, in field events, Natalie Schoendaller took third in the shot put and in the discus.

Local man blows whistle in Atlanta Highlands Ranch referee works his fourth Final Four

Email your ideas to Centennial Community Editor Deborah Grigsby at dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com.

By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com As the NCAA men’s basketball tournament whittled itself down from 68 teams to the Final Four, the players weren’t the only ones advancing from round to round. Officials were also judged on their performances. And for the fourth time in his 20year career officiating Division I college basketball, Highlands Ranch resident Randy McCall made it all the way to the Final Four. McCall’s officiating tenure began as a college student at the University of Northern Colorado when he started picking up area high school games. After graduation, he made the gradual transition to lower-tier collegiate ball and in 1992 began blowing his whistle at the Division I level. And for those who watched the Michigan-Syracuse semifinal game April 6, it was McCall who made the controversial charging call against the Orange with just less than two minutes to play that helped the Wolverines cement their victory. The former Cherry Creek High School athletic director said he watched the play multiple times after the game, and is more than confident he made the right call. “Certainly, as referees, if we can make it through a game without a play like that where we have to make a boom-boom ruling, it makes it easier for everybody,” he said. “Right, wrong, indifferent, at the end of the day I had a decision to make. It was a hard play and it had an influence on the outcome. That’s just the way it is. “I’ve had a lot of people say it was a great call, and I’ve had a lot say it was a `hard call to make’ which in referee terms means they would have called it different. … There are tough

Our Residential Roofing Repair services include: ➜ Roof Leaks ➜ Insurance Claims ➜ Hail Damage Highlands Ranch resident Randy McCall officiated the Syracuse-Michigan April 6 at the NCAA Final Four in Atlanta. Courtesy photo plays like that in every game but when it happens late in the game the perceived impact is a bit more magnified. I’m sure there are a lot of people who would like to crucify me for that one play, but there are a lot of people who say I got it right.” McCall isn’t losing any sleep over it, that’s for sure, and said that officials always have a good feeling of whether they got the game right, and in this case, he said they did. “I haven’t been in a game where any of us have been perfect yet,” he said. “The reality of it is there’s an accumulation of a lot of things that lead to one team winning.” What McCall is most concerned with is fairness, and he will be the first to admit that can be one of the biggest challenges in a game where three men are working together and none see exactly what the others are seeing and calling. “You have a good idea, but never know for sure. It’s a challenge,” he

said. “It’s not like being a baseball umpire where you are going to sit back there and you know the guy is going to throw a ball or a strike. Our game is so fast, and so unpredictable.” McCall, who referees in the Mountain West, Pac-12, Western Athletic Conference and Missouri Valley Conference during the season, said it’s a bit of an affirmation to advance through the rounds and be selected for the Final Four, but it isn’t everything. “Anyone who hangs their hat on whether they are moved on to the second weekend or the Final Four, if that’s all they are going to judge their year by, I think they’re nuts,” he said. “There are so many really good referees out there.” Other Final Four games McCall has done include the 2004 National Championship game between Connecticut and Georgia Tech, the 2005 semifinal between Michigan State and North Carolina and the 2010 semifinal between Duke and West Virginia.

The family that runs together Foonbergs and friends rally for cancer research By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com It was a good plan that almost came together, but it still had a great outcome. Spurred on by patriarch Jay, the Foonberg family rallied in support of one of their own April 7 during the South Platte River Half Marathon in Littleton. Jay, 77, started running marathons just 20 years ago but has since finished races on all seven continents. He’s currently on a quest to run half marathons in 25 states — “half in half,” he says. “I’m no jock. I’m nothing special,” he said. “I just do them to say I did them. I’m no hero. I’d just rather be surrounded by young, healthy people than old people like me.” When he found the half marathon in Littleton, the Los Angeles

Castle Rock

resident jumped at the chance to visit his son, David, a Jefferson County resident. “I thought, `Wouldn’t it be great if we ran one together?’” said Jay. Fortuitously, David’s cousin Michael, a cancer survivor, had a big event of his own the same week. On April 9, the Greenwood Village resident accepted the Courage Award from the Melanoma Research Foundation during its annual Wings of Hope for Melanoma Gala. So the family decided to tie the two together. David signed up his business, Littleton Drum Studio, to sponsor the marathon, and about 30 Foonbergs, friends and relatives ran — or walked — it in Michael’s honor, including Michael himself. “My father unknowingly did a great thing by giving (Michael) a huge distraction the past several months, one that also made him healthier,” said David. Michael, a high-school basketball coach, has always been active, and training for the race helped him get back in shape af-

ter treatment. “But it’s kind of bittersweet, because he’s just been diagnosed with thyroid cancer,” said David. “It’s kind of hard to celebrate a year free of cancer when it just started over.” Michael finished the race in a respectable two hours and 38 minutes. But Jay, the man who started it all, hit a snag. He couldn’t acclimate to the Colorado elevation, and ended up not running. “I am glad my father wasn’t foolish,” said David. All in all, the plan was a success, he said. It raised awareness about cancer, supported Michael, promoted exercise and healthy living and, most importantly, brought the family together. Jay theorizes that running marathons and playing drums have a lot in common, what he calls the “three Ds” — they take desire, discipline and a certain amount of dementia. “You have to be crazy,” he joked. “But if you’re going to do it and enjoy it and do it well, all three of them have to be present.”
