Abandoned animals find friends Parker-area couple opens home, hearts By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com When animals are no longer wanted or cared for, Lynda and John Edwards give them a loving home. Every animal in their barnyard has a heartbreaking story. There is Molly the zebu, a sacred cow from India that, despite being perfectly healthy, was going to be euthanized when the Denver Zoo closed its Krall exhibit. There is Fudgie, a plump, 15-year-old Chihuahua that was among 15 rescued “bait dogs” used to rile up pit bulls before a fight. There are the three roosters that were dumped over the fence and into the barnyard a month ago. Countless others have been abused or neglected. There are so many creatures at the Edwards Foundation for Rescued Animals just east of Parker that its proprietor is unable to say exactly how many are on the 5-acre property. Regardless, the animals have gotten a second chance at life and even found some unlikely companions. It’s a common theme in the Edwards household, where foster children were raised before the animals took over. The Edwardses continue to help those in need, as long as they donate some of their time and effort. The large-animal rescue is run entirely by volunteers, including high school students who perform community service, referrals from the juvenile courts and special-needs adults looking for a project. Most of the volunteers come
to the rescue in the rural-residential Sierra Vista subdivision without knowing a thing about how to take care of farm animals. By the time they leave, they are skilled at cleaning, brushing and feeding a variety of animals. “We couldn’t do it without volunteers,” Lynda Edwards says. One volunteer, in particular, has dedicated herself to the no-kill shelter. Diane Ham, known to Edwards as “the fowl lady,” arrived two years ago and has since come nearly every morning to pitch in where she is needed. Ham didn’t know anything about taking care of birds, but learned how to nurse the ducks, turkeys, hens and roosters back to health through research and hands-on experience. Ham has become part of the extended family. “I feel at home here,” she said. Of course, the volunteers are quickly introduced to the colorful cast of characters in the barnyard. Millie, an overly friendly llama, likes to dole out lip-smacking smooches. Goldie and Dealer, two aging horses, sniff wildly at visitors and tag along out of sheer curiosity. And Pancake, an ornery and authoritative goat, runs the yard by welcoming people with repeated head butts. Edwards even gives out certificates to victims who survive Pancake’s “special loving.” The Edwards Foundation for Rescued Animals was created about six years ago after John Edwards, a retiree seeking to spend his added free time wisely, began volunteering at different animal-related venues each day. He eventually brought his work home with him and the nonprofit rescue quickly grew. The Edwardses planned to
A plaintiff in the Douglas County School District voucher case says the state appeals court erred in several area Feb. 28 in upholding the voucher program. The process to take the case to the Colorado Supreme Court is under way. An attorney on the other side, representing families who had originally received vouchers, says the program’s design keeps private schools and government separate, ensuring its constitutionality. The two sides likely will get a chance to argue those points again, though the case doesn’t automatically move to the higher court. It first must be approved for review by a certiorari, an order from a higher court that directs the lower court to send the case to it. The Colorado Supreme Court receives more than 900 certiorari petitions annually stemming from Court of Appeals decisions, and agrees on average to hear one of every 14 petitioned cases. Director of Taxpayers for Public Education Anne Kleinkopf, among the plaintiffs in the lawsuit against DCSD and the Colorado Department of Education, has no doubt this petition will be granted. “The issues are of such great public imVoucher continues on Page 23

Three feet from Sam is a black kitten comfortably bathing himself on a cushioned chair. Just a few weeks before, he was found abandoned underneath a trash bin at a local Starbucks and was brought in with open arms. Edwards and Ham
then attempt to count how many cats are kept in the house, on top of the three outdoor cats. Things aren’t always easy. The poor economy caused many volunteers to find paying jobs and the price of hay has skyrocketed, leading to more abandoned horses and higher costs for the rescue. And in an effort to find permanent homes for as many animals as possible, the foundation doesn’t charge an adoption fee. It relies heavily on donations.

Enthusiastic crowds will converge on Parker in the hopes of driving their team to victory in the Solheim Cup. The business community is banking on those same crowds to drive an increase in sales. An estimated 125,000 spectators will attend the bi-annual event — one of the most prestigious women’s golf tournaments — this August at the Colorado Golf Club southeast of South Parker Road and Stroh Road. Of those spectators, approximately 60 percent are expected to come from out of state, and a good portion will come from abroad.

Mayor to give update at State of the Town Rotary event will be held at PACE Center By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com Reflecting on the positive is what you might call a Rotary tradition. The Rotary Club of Parker is convening elected officials, business owners, community volunteers and residents for the State of the Town April 2 at the Parker Arts, Culture and Events Center. The gathering, one Waid of the local Rotary’s two major yearly fundraisers, is meant to highlight trends and goals, and there is plenty of good news to share. Jane Johnson, spokeswoman for Parker Rotary, says this year’s theme is “leave Parker a better place” and shop locally, two mantras espoused by Mayor Mike Waid, the event’s keynote speaker. The fourth annual State of the Town is being combined with a wine-tasting and the Blue Ribbon Dining Experience, in which 18 popular Parker restaurants will hand out coupons for special deals that last through April 15. It’s intended to introduce residents
to eateries that they might not have visited, while boosting the restaurants’ visibility. Johnson says members of the public are sure to learn a lot during a series of informative presentations. “They can expect to find out more about the Town of Parker from Mike Waid, where we’re at and where he sees us going,” she said. The State of the Town will also afford the Parker Rotary a chance to bestow one game-changer with the Parker Impact Award, which recognizes those who work selflessly for the benefit of others. The nominees include: Dr. Derek Johnson, an orthopedic surgeon and director of the joint replacement program at Parker Adventist Hospital; Angela Ottman, who has led Ponderosa High School’s poms dance team to numerous titles and supports the team members personally and academically; Cheryl Poage, who has many roles with the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, including fire and life safety educator; and Jane Jachowicz, a program director at Parker Adventist’s Trio Breast Center who has been instrumental in the recovery of hundreds of cancer patients. The event begins at 2 p.m. Tickets are $35 prior to March 31, and $45 at the door. The proceeds fund the Rotary club’s philanthropic projects. To buy tickets, call 303-884-0606 or email info@parkerrotary.org.

Adult apps cause for parental concern Teen usage leads to dangerous situations By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ourcolorado news.com Teenagers signing up for adult smartphone apps — designed to bring people 18 and older together for sexual encounters — are putting themselves in a dangerous and vulnerable position, Douglas County officials say. It’s happening at such an alarming rate that District Attorney George Brauchler and Undersheriff Tony Spurlock called a joint press conference March 18 to get the message out to parents about what is happening. The apps are free to download, and signup only requires a statement that the user is at least 18. They are each equipped with a geolocator to make it easier for the two people to find one another — something that is especially scary when it concerns children using the apps, both men say. “Recently we’ve found that a lot of our youth are using them,” Spurlock said. “These kids do not know what they are getting into, and some child is going to fall victim to something they will never be able to get over again.
“What we are hoping is that parents will go home, find their children’s phones and ask them if they can take a look and see what kind of apps that they have. … These are adult apps. These are not for children.” Brauchler said parents have the ability to block a phone from accessing adult apps by entering a fourdigit code that is kept secret from the child. The geolocator function can also be turned off, but he said there are definitely benefits to leaving that on, such as helping locate a lost child. “We want to be able to trust our kids,” Brauchler said. “It’s not about the ability for your son or daughter to reach into the outside world. It’s the ability of the outside world to reach into your son’s or daughter’s.” Brauchler added that both departments have been surprised to learn how many young men are using these apps and becoming victims of older predators. “It’s not just the young girls that we’ve become so accustomed to hearing about,” he said. “A lot of them are young men, willing participants many of them, but understand, under our laws in Colorado, you don’t get to consent to that kind of contact at that age.” And just because there are teens, some as young as 14, that claim to be over
18, it doesn’t let adults using the apps to meet them off the hook. In fact, there are multiple investigations ongoing in Douglas County stemming from such alleged encounters. “You don’t get to rely on the fact that you have to be 18 or older by self-proclamation to be on this app,” Brauchler said. “That will not save someone who has engaged in conduct that is otherwise illegal with a minor. If you are going to prey upon on our children we will hold you accountable for it.” For information about specific apps that parents should watch for, go to dcsheriff.net or call the sheriff’s office at 303-660-7505.

Lawmakers mull aerial fire fleet By Vic Vela
vvela@ourcoloradonews.com As drought continues to plague the West, and with the memories of blazes that covered much of the state last summer still fresh, a group of lawmakers on March 21 announced their plans to introduce a bill to create an aerial firefighting fleet in Colorado. But what they don’t know yet is how much such a bold undertaking would cost, or how they would pay for it. Four legislators told reporters during a Capitol press conference that wildfire season has already begun, and that Colorado can’t always rely on the federal government’s limited aerial fleet to come to its rescue, whenever massive fires break out. State Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, said the federal government has slashed its
firefighting air fleet over the years, leaving Colorado in a potentially precarious situation for this and future wildfire seasons. “They have an entire country to cover and that could be a very dangerous situation for Colorado,” Jahn said of the federal government’s role in Report fighting fires. “When we make that phone call to the federal government and say we need assistance, you hope they can show up.” Jahn was joined at the press conference by Democratic Senate President John Morse and Senate Minority Leader Bill Cadman, both of Colorado Springs, as well as Republican Sen. Steve King of Grand Junc-
Capitol
tion, who will co-sponsor the forthcoming legislation with Jahn. “Quite frankly, we are one lightning strike, one careless match throw, one terrorist, intentional match throw away from a catastrophic wildfire in Colorado,” King said. “God help us if that is in one of our watersheds.” But what no one was prepared to talk about was how much a wildfire aerial fleet is expected to cost. “Good question,” King said when a reporter asked about the price tag. “Next question,” quipped Cadman. King said that “we’re working on that,” saying they would need cost input from the Department of Public Safety, which would be in charge of the fleet. King also said that the department would “figure out” how many planes it would need.

There rarely was a speech that was made inside Denver’s History Colorado Center on March 21 that didn’t bring Sue Westervelt to tears. The Colorado Springs woman made the hour drive north to be a part of history — to see Gov. John Hickenlooper sign legislation that legalizes civil unions for gay couples in Colorado. “In my lifetime, I can’t believe this is becoming a reality,” said Westervelt, who is gay, as tears trickled down her face. “I’ve been discriminated against my whole life. Now, I don’t feel like a second-class citizen any more.” There were plenty of tears and plenty of cheers inside the sleek Capitol Hill cultural center, as onlookers filled the space to the rafters to witness the signing of Senate Bill 11, which will allow gay couples to enter into commitments that are similar to marriage beginning May 1. Colorado is the eighth state to recognize civil unions, or similar domestic-partner laws. Nine other states, along with the District of Columbia, allow gay marriage. “It is a moment that the whole community has waited for, for so long,” said Hickenlooper. “And it is really the beginning of the country changing. That change has gotten here. It’s gonna keep going. It’s not going to stop in Colorado. But I’d like to think this is a crucial point, a very crucial point.” Joining Hickenlooper on stage were lawmakers who were instrumental in passing the bill, after two failed attempts in previous legislative sessions. They included Denver Democratic Sen. Pat Steadman. Steadman, who is gay, lost his partner of eleven years to cancer last year. “He would be so proud standing right here with you,” said House Speaker Mark Ferrandino. After the signing came the celebrating. Democratic Sen. Jessie Ulibarri of Commerce City kissed his partner, Louis Trujillo, as the two wrapped their arms around each other. “I told him don’t cry, don’t cry. You’re gonna make me cry,” Ulibarri said. “But it was more romantic than that. We’ve been fighting for this for a long time.” Amid the revelry quietly stood Christine Bakke-O’Neil and her partner of four years, Theresa Bakke-O’Neil. Christine Bakke-O’Neil recalled walking dejectedly out of the Capitol two years ago, when a civil unions bill failed. “I remember thinking that I don’t count here,” she said. “I don’t count. This is not a state for me. I never felt so disenfranchised in my life, and it was really heartbreaking. “Now, I’m so surprised as to how emotional I was (during the signing). This means so much.” So, what were the big party plans for the domestic partners going to be afterward? “Go home and feed the cats,” quipped Christine. “You know, the big gay agenda,” Theresa said.

King also said lawmakers will look into receiving federal funding. Last year’s wildfire season in Colorado was particularly destructive. The Waldo Canyon Fire that started northwest of Colorado Springs in June destroyed more than 350 homes. Earlier that month, the High Park Fire in Larimer County burned more than 87,000 acres. And with current snowpack around the state sitting well below average, conditions are expected to be ripe for another unpredictable and potentially damaging wildfire season in Colorado this year. “Wildfires absolutely don’t know politics,” Jahn said. “There are no Democrats or Republicans when a fire breaks out and consumes the land. We know that our wildfire threats can be even worse this year than last.”

The Douglas County School District received five letters of intent this month from would-be charter school developers. The letters came in response to DCSD’s March 15 deadline. “I’ve been doing this for about six years and this is probably the most applications we’ve received,” said DCSD’s director of charter school partnerships, Kindra Whitmyre. “I think charter schools are becoming more and more popular. I’m seeing an influx everywhere, not just in our district.” Charter schools are publicly funded, but operate independent of the district under a contractual agreement. They often are governed by parents and community members. To date, 12 such schools operate in DCSD. The district’s March application deadline is new, and designed to make the prospect of building a school easier. DCSD successfully applied for a waiver to move its application window from the statemandated fall timeline to spring, which gives schools a longer construction window. “Previously, charter schools would move into old buildings,” said Pat McGraw, DCSD’s development and innovation officer. “Now, a lot of them are building. When schools would try to do their application in the fall and open the next fall, it really wouldn’t give them enough time.” Along with John Adams High School and the K-8 Parker Performing Arts School, letters of intent were submitted for the K-8 World Compass Academy, K-8 Global Village Academy and Colorado Early Colleges high school. All the schools have Web pages operating or existing campuses they plan to replicate. The World Compass Academy’s mission statement says it inspires stu-
CHARTER CREATOR PROPOSES TWO MORE The founder of Ben Franklin Academy believes he’s hit on a successful formula, one he hopes to replicate in a proposed charter high school and K-8 performing arts school. Jason Sanders submitted letters of intent to the Douglas County School District for John Adams High School and the Parker Performing Arts School. Sanders doesn’t have a site yet for either building, but he believes he can open the doors to both schools this fall. “We’re already showing strong enrollment for both Parker Performing Arts and John Adams,” said Sanders, adding he’s already spoken about the projects with Highmark School Development, the same company that helped finance Ben Franklin Academy. “Every indication is that it’s going to work out.” Prompted by a desire to provide a unique educational experience for his four children, Sanders and his wife Danielle helped found the Highlands Ranch-based Ben Franklin Academy. Open since fall 2011, the K-12 school has been so enthusiastically received that parents urged Sanders to consider creating a high school. The idea wasn’t new to him; the timing was. “I honestly didn’t want to do a high dents to lifelong learning in a global community. The Global Village Academy, based in Aurora with new schools opening this year in Fort Collins and Colorado Springs, describes itself as an innovative charter school that teaches global literacy through language immersion. Colorado Early Colleges, already open in Colorado Springs, aims to make high school students “collegeready in less than two years,” according to its website. The letters of intent submitted by the five schools are the first step on a long road. A 120-day process follows, during which the application is reviewed by a variety of district departments. District officials also interview proponents. Finally, the proposal goes to the school board for its review and a vote. “We’ve never turned an application down,” said Whitmyre, who was the principal of Colorado’s first charter, Academy Charter
school for a couple more years, but I had enough parents bug me about it that I decided to do it earlier rather than later,” he said. Sanders aims to replicate the environment at Ben Franklin. “We have created a program I think is very special,” he said. “I realize it won’t be easy. Teenagers are a different animal than younger kids. But I think most of the people that will be attracted have kids that have gone through (K-8) charter schools. They’re already used to that kind of culture.” Lone Tree seems a logical choice for the high school, Sanders said, because it’s easily accessible from both Interstate 25 and C-470. Similarly, Sanders said parents also encouraged him to investigate the idea of a performing arts school. The option doesn’t exist currently in Douglas County, Sanders said. The school’s mission, stated on its website, is to ensure students “excel academically through a challenging, data driven, differentiated, and technology-based curriculum … (and) excel artistically through training from passionate, experienced, and credentialed artists.” The targeted location is along Parker’s E-470 corridor. School, before moving to the district-level job. “What I understand and believe is our board and superintendent are very choice-friendly, and they’re always looking at different options to meet our students’ needs.” Charter schools don’t have taxing authority, but most qualify for Colorado Department of Education start-up grants. In exchange for building in high studentgrowth areas and reserving space for district students, DCSD has partnered with two other charter schools. It owns the land on which Castle Pines-based American Academy is building its second school in Parker. It’s allowing Aspen View to use the district’s credit to secure $14 million to build the school, now under construction in the Meadows neighborhood in Castle Rock. In 2012-13, 187 charter schools operate in Colorado, serving about 11 percent of the state’s total K-12 public school enrollment, according to the Colorado League of Charter Schools.

Suicide is big driver of gun-death numbers Laws might do little to bring down toll, analysis finds By Kevin Vaughan and Burt Hubbard I-News Network
During the 12-year span between the mass shootings at Columbine High School and Aurora, Coloradans used guns to kill themselves about four times more frequently than they used them to kill each other, an I-News analysis of death certificates found. In Douglas County, the ratio was nearly 6-to-1 during that time frame, with 170 gun-related suicides and 30 homicides. The analysis, which covered the years 2000 through 2011, also found that white residents disproportionately committed suicides with guns while minorities were disproportionately victims of homicide shootings. In the wake of the July 20 attack at the Century Aurora 16 theater, which left 12 people dead and more than 50 injured, state legislators introduced a flurry of guncontrol measures, some of which made their way through the legislative process while others did not. The bills have sparked sometimes-emotional debate and prompted large protests as gun rights activists and supporters of the proposals beseeched lawmakers and Gov. John Hickenlooper. Earlier this month, a plane circling central Denver towed a banner that read: “Hick: Don’t Take Our Guns.” But people on both sides of the debate said the reality of Colorado’s firearms deaths — that more than
three-quarters of them are suicides — means the proposals may do little to put much of a dent in the overall loss of life involving guns. “I think that really goes much more to the issue of responsible ownership — that if you know you’ve got someone in your home who is struggling with depression, or something like that, you really ought to take active steps to either not have one or make sure if you do it is locked up,” said Tom Mauser, who has worked to pass gun-control measures in the nearly 14 years since his son, Daniel, was killed at Columbine High. “These are not suicidereduction bills, and no responsible person would claim they are,” said David Kopel, a law professor at the University of Denver and research director at the Independence Institute who testified against some of the gun proposals. “They are, at their best, and their ideals, crime-reduction bills.” I-News analyzed data from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment on deaths from firearms between 2000 and 2011, the latest year available. The information comes from death certificates. It found: • Suicides accounted for 76 percent of the 6,258 deaths from guns over the 12 years, while homicides comprised 20 percent. The rest were either accidental, legal shootings by law enforcement officers, or unexplained. Nationally, about 60 percent of gun deaths are suicides. • Gun suicides were disproportionately committed by white residents, while homicide victims were predominantly minority. White residents, who make up 70 percent of the state’s population, accounted for

88 percent of the gun suicides. On the other hand, 58 percent of homicide victims were minorities, who comprise 30 percent of the state’s residents. Blacks were victims in 21 percent of the homicides, but only make up 4 percent of Colorado’s population. Latinos were victims in 34 percent of homicides, while comprising 21 percent of the state’s population. • Gun death victims were overwhelmingly male. They accounted for 85 percent of all deaths involving guns and 87 percent of suicides using guns. • Those over age 70 had the highest rate of overall deaths from guns, 18 for every 100,000 residents of that age group. They were almost exclusively suicides. The 21-to-30 age group had the highest rate of homicides, about 5 for every 100,000. I-News also calculated gun death rates by county and found wide geographic disparities. Based on the number of overall gun deaths during the 12 years, the highest rates were in Montrose, Mesa, Fremont and Pueblo

counties among mediumand large-sized counties — those with populations of more than 40,000. The lowest rates were in Eagle, Douglas, Weld and Boulder counties. Denver and El Paso counties had the highest number of overall deaths involving guns, 831 and 804 respectively, but their rates per 100,000 residents ranked them in the middle among the counties. Denver did have the highest number of residents killed in homicides, 342 over the 12 years or 5 per every 100,000 people, followed by Pueblo and Adams counties. El Paso County had the highest overall death toll from gun suicides, 596 over the 12 years, but Mesa had the highest rate of residents killing themselves with guns among larger counties, 15.6
per 100,000 residents. Lanny Berman, a psychologist who is executive director of the American Association of Suicidology, said the issue of guns and suicide is complex — and confusing. Overall in the United States, the percentage of suicides committed with guns has fallen in recent years even as the overall number of suicides hasn’t changed much. “I’d like to think that it’s come down because there’s been a lot of public education and work in that area,” Berman said. “That said, hanging deaths have increased, and we can’t figure out how to engage restricted access to ropes and other forms of ligature. I can argue safe storage of a firearm, and convince some people that’s wise, but belts, and guitar straps and anything else one might use to hang themselves with, I have no argument.” People whose suicide attempts are unsuccessful don’t necessarily go on to kill themselves, Berman said. “The people who have been rescued off the Golden Gate Bridge — a very small portion of them go on to die by suicide,” he said. “If you can intervene — in this case by restricting access — people change their mind, good things happen, they get into treatment, time changes a lot of things. Who knows what, but things happen and people don’t necessarily stay suicidal. That’s just what we know about being sui-
cidal, it waxes and wanes and is highly responsive to the moment. So change the moment and you’re going to save lives.” Mauser, who said he backed the measures introduced this year because he believed they represented reasonable efforts to keep guns out of the hands of people who shouldn’t have them, also lamented the reality that when a gun is involved the odds of surviving a suicide attempt are small. “You’re more likely to survive some of the other things,” Mauser said. “You’re not going to survive a gunshot to the head.” Kopel, who said as a “card-carrying Roman Catholic” he was opposed to suicide, also expressed little hope that legislation could do much about the majority of gun deaths. “The vast majority of gun deaths are suicides, and of those, they are hugely skewed to males and hugely skewed to older populations,” he said. “I think it’s highly unrealistic to think that any form of gun control is going to reduce suicide in this group.” I-News is the public service journalism arm of Rocky Mountain PBS.

Douglas tops for child well-being Report shows leading position among state’s biggest counties By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com For the second time in two years, the Kids Count in Colorado report listed Douglas County as No. 1 in the state for child well-being. Published by the Colorado Children’s Campaign in conjunction with the Annie E. Casey Foundation, the report compares the 25 largest counties in the state and takes into account 12 indicators that weigh access to and quality of health, education, family and community support. Denver County ranked 25th. “The goal of Kids Count is to provide a clearer picture of the challenges and opportunities facing Colorado kids and to provide communities with the county-specific data needed to better support their children,” said Chris Watney, president and CEO of the Colorado Children’s Campaign. “No county included in our analysis is without an area that could be improved upon and all counties have strengths and best practices.” While pleased with the top billing,
Douglas County tops the state when it comes to children’s well-being. Courtesy photo Douglas County Commissioner Jill Repella was quick to agree with Watney and point out that individual families still are struggling in Douglas County and continue to need support. “Our child well-being outcomes are at-
tributable first and foremost to the parents and caregivers of children in our county, as well as to our public safety professionals, our school system, nonprofit organizations, faith-based community support and governmental entities that provide a
safety net for our at-risk families,” Repella said. “We know that where a child lives has significant impacts on their well-being, on whether he or she can access health care, quality education and a safe neighborhood.” Among the numerous categories where Douglas County led the state was child poverty, with only 3.8 percent of children living under the poverty line. As a state, Colorado continues to get worse, up from 10 percent in 2000 to 18 percent in 2012. The state still remains 4 points beneath the national average of 22 percent. Douglas also had the lowest teen birth rate in the state (7.7 births per 1,000 girls), the lowest number of uninsured children (2.4 percent), the third lowest dropout rate (0.9 percent) and the sixth lowest rate of overweight or obese children (18.5 percent). On the national spectrum, Colorado came in as the fourth least affordable state for center-based infant care and the ninth least affordable state for center-based care for a 4-year-old relative to state median income. “It is our hope that this information will be used to ensure that all Colorado children have the opportunity to reach their full potential,” Watney said.

Reality show teaches survivor skills Career Connect invites Eagle Scout appears on ‘Apocalypse 101’ By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews. com Josh Worby is now better prepared for a zombie apocalypse. Already an Eagle Scout with plenty of emergency preparedness training, Worby recently got a supplemental lesson from a group of military survivalists. The Legend High School senior’s father, Dave, answered a casting call posted on Craigslist by the London-based producers of “Apocalypse 101,” a new National Geographic Channel reality TV series in the same vein as pop-culture favorite “Doomsday Preppers.” It turned out that Worby, a theater buff with an affinity for zombie-related video games and movies like “Zombieland,” was the perfect fit. He nailed an audition in a Walmart parking lot and was tapped to co-star in one of the first “Apocalypse 101” episodes, which aired right after “Doomsday Preppers” March 19. “The show has different scenarios and they take people into situations and advise them on how to act,” Dave Worby said. “It’s kind of a docudrama setup, but they have some literary license.”
Parker resident Josh Worby, 17, appeared on an episode of “Apocalypse 101,” a reality TV series on the National Geographic channel. Courtesy photo Shot last September in the mountains west of Golden, the four-man team of hosts, made up of retired Marines, picked apart Josh Worby’s survival bag, also known as a “bug out bag.” They gave the 17-year-old a hard time about his half-joking eagerness to learn how to defend against a zombie takeover. They also poked fun at his mechanical arm brace that enables him to attach and carry flashlights and other tools. But the novice firearm-user got the last laugh during a target-shooting les-

son: He repeatedly hit a watermelon from several hundred yards out, while the hosts were unable to hit it at all. The survivalists, owners of Colorado-based Forge Survival Supply, also showed the teen the convenience of MREs — or Meals Ready to Eat — and the importance of maintaining a proper fighting stance during handto-hand combat, but those sequences did not make the final cut. In the last few years, Dave Worby says, he began to notice a lot more extra food and water around the house. His son joined Cub Scouts at an early age and has always liked learning survival techniques, but his interest grew as the undead inexplicably exploded with popularity. The Centers for Disease Control, presumably with tongue in cheek, even launched a 2012 campaign aimed at zombie apocalypse preparedness. The CDC argued that anyone prepared for zombies would be ready for virtually any other disaster. Dave Worby, who moved to Parker in 1987, points out that thanks to his son, his family has the appropriate supplies and a little more know-how to face the aftermath of a biological event or a nuclear blast. The show featuring Josh Worby was scheduled to air again March 26, as well as in reruns.

students to explore Program offers 30 sessions on wide range of jobs By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcolorado news.com Students registering for this spring’s Career Connect sessions are so far most curious about culinary arts and forensic science. Those are among 23 different job fields available for Douglas County high schoolers to explore during the evening events. The career exploration program is from 6-8 p.m. on Monday nights in April. The April 1 orientation is at Parker’s Chaparral High School, with career-specific sessions at the individual businesses. In its fifth semester, the ever-lengthening menu of choices goes from A to V, including automotive technology, engineering, healthcare, law enforcement, construction management and veterinary medicine, among others. “A very common combination seems to be a session called `Top Chef has to start somewhere’ and `CSI,’ or `What the coroner really does,’” said program coordinator Krista Zizzo. “The coroner’s session is proving to be very popular and is probably going to be one of the first to close.” The program has moved away from its original format, which required students to attend four-week tracks on specific careers. Now, they can choose a different career track each week, or opt to attend only
one session out of the fourweek period. Employers have responded strongly to Zizzo’s call for representation. Among the new businesses in the loop this spring is DirecTV, a direct broadcast satellite service provider that has a broadcast center in Castle Rock. Director of broadcast operations Ron Sherrill says DirecTV’s processes jibe with the current educational emphasis on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). “That’s the basis of everything we’re doing here,” he said. “We control over 2,500 channels out of here. We’re going to walk (students) through a beginningto-end signal flow, how we receive our TV stations, how we put them back up to the satellite and down to the home.” Sherrill saw participation in Career Connect as an opportunity. “We’re a part of the community,” he said. “We want to give back to the community. Part of the way to do it right now is to let the students know what they’re facing when they walk out of a high school. If we can generate some excitement, hopefully they’re going to go off and get that education and maybe even come back and offer those skills to us when the time’s right.” Registration for Career Connect continues through April. Students pay $10 for the first session, and $5 for every additional session. To register or for more information, visit www.dcefcolorado.org.

opinions / yours and ours
Now is the time to prepare for wildfires Colorado’s first major wildfire of the year didn’t even wait until spring. The Galena Fire prompted evacuations while scorching more than 1,300 acres near Fort Collins earlier this month. The blaze was an all-too-early reminder of what Coloradans went through last year, what many consider the state’s worst ever for wildfires. Statistics, provided by the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control, tell the toll in 2012: Nearly 400,000 acres were burned. More than half a billion dollars in property was lost. The Waldo Canyon Fire alone destroyed nearly 350 homes. More than $48 million was spent in suppression efforts for the 16 largest wildfires of the year. Six civilians were killed. Already in 2013, we must turn our atten-
our view tion to fire from ice. Even after several recent storms, snowpack is below normal levels and the state’s drought lingers. With little relief in sight, Denver Water and other utilities recently announced watering restrictions. It’s possible open-burning bans are not far behind in the metro area and around the state. In anticipation of — or maybe more accurately, as a response to — wildfire season, four state legislators last week announced plans to introduce a bill that
would create a state aerial firefighting fleet. The bipartisan proposal is a response to the dry conditions in the state and to the federal government’s dwindling fleet of firefighting aircraft, which Colorado relies on for help with large blazes. “Quite frankly, we are one lightning strike, one careless match throw, one terrorist intentional match throw away from a catastrophic wildfire in Colorado,” said state Sen. Steve King, R- Grand Junction, who planned to be a sponsor of the bill. At this point, we can’t pass judgment on whether creating the fleet is the right way to go. The bill had not even been introduced as of press time. Further, the lawmakers shied away from answering questions on the program’s cost, which would include the initial funding plus
maintenance. Certainly, it wouldn’t be cheap. But we will applaud the legislators for bringing attention to and taking seriously the wildfire threat facing Colorado. The state needs more officials working toward solutions — not merely making speeches in the grim aftermath — when it comes to this issue. The burden is not on officials alone, however. We all play a role in wildfire prevention and safety. Make sure to take precautions like creating a “defensible space,” an area free from brush, around your home. If your city or county imposes open-burning restrictions in the months ahead, follow them. A year from now, we don’t want to look back at 2013 the way we do 2012.
there are times when nothing do you support civil unions? is better deal than something question of the week
With the recent passage of a bill allowing same-sex civil unions in Colorado, we asked people at the Littleton Safeway on
Mineral Avenue if they support the legislation, and how they feel about the prospect of gay marriage.
“I’m against it. I believe what the Bible says. Civil unions are not my cup of tea.” — Lee Matthews, Centennial
“Civil unions, yes. The marriage part, no, just because I think marriage is all about conceiving children.” — M.F. Howard, Littleton
“I’d say whatever anybody wants to do is fine on either one. It doesn’t affect me one way or another. To each his own.” — Sacha Black, Highlands Ranch
“I think it should extend to marriage. I believe in equality across the board. I see a lot of similarities between civil rights for African-Americans in the past and what’s happening now ….” — Corie Hudspeth, Littleton
Hanging on in quiet desperation Forty years ago, Paige Ernster invited me over to her Westwood apartment to listen to a new vinyl album. I listened to the entire album from start to finish. Now and then I still do. It remained on the “Billboard 100” for 741 weeks, and it is in the top 25 of bestselling albums, ever, in the United States. I know you know the album, and you might even know every “heartbeat, clock tick, and register ring” by heart, but I’ll bet you a case of Guinness that you can only name one song on the album: “Money.” “Money” made it to the radio, even with a profanity. Here are some other titles: “Speak to Me,” On the Run,” and “The Great Gig in the Sky.” See what I mean? You don’t know them by name, just by sound. And the sound is brilliant. “The Dark Side of the Moon” was recorded in two sessions in 1972 and 1973 at Abbey Road Studios in London. “Dark Side” was different from the band’s seven previous albums, because there were fewer extended instrumental excursions, and because the songs were seamed together. The album’s themes include “conflict, greed, the passage of time, and mental illness, the latter partly inspired by former band member Syd Barrett’s deteriorating mental state.” The lunatic is in the hall The lunatics are in my hall The paper holds their folded faces to the floor And every day the paper boy brings more. I still see the album’s cover art on Tshirts worn by teenagers. The band had seven Storm Thorgerson designs to chose from. It took them three minutes to decide. “The band trooped in,” Thorgerson said, “swept their gaze across the designs, looked at each other, nodded, and said, `That one,’ pointing at the prism.” Here are some other things you might like to know. The original working title of the album was “Eclipse” because the previous year a group called Medicine Head had released their own “Dark Side of the Moon.” When it flopped, Pink Floyd claimed the title. “Money” is one of the few hit singles
ever to utilize 7/4 signature time. I have no idea what that means. “At the very end of `Eclipse,’ in the right channel, there is the faint sound of a Muzak version of the Beatles’ `Ticket to Ride.’” A lot of these tidbits can be picked up in the documentary, “The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon.” I recommend it. I was in my mid-20s when I spent that afternoon with Paige. I was a college student. I didn’t know what was going to happen to me, so there was a lot of apprehension. And there should have been. An art degree is notorious for being impractical and almost worthless to employers. To employers other than college and universities, which is where I landed for 30 years. I lifted the name of this column from one of the songs, “Time,” and Waters lifted the words from a Henry David Thoreau poem: “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.” It’s quite easy for me to become sentimental about “The Dark Side of the Moon.” It has been in a sidecar with me for the past 40 years. I haven’t always stayed on the road. One troubling night, I heard my old friend “Speak to Me.” Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over Thought I’d something more to say.

Sometimes it is easy to become overwhelmed and super-focused with everything that we believe matters in our lives — our families, friends, job, school, and all of our stuff and all of our activities that we pursue or collect — that we forget to find time for a little “nothing.” Obviously “nothing” is not a fourletter word and it is not even a bad word. Sometimes we can all use a little “nothing” in our lives to balance out the hectic pace, madness, and maybe even a little of the drama that may be consuming us or that has crept into our world at the moment. Finding times to be quiet and allow “nothing” to invade our mind or our space could be really healthy at times. I know that some of you may be reading this laughing and saying that there is no way to find time to do “nothing,” and if I only knew just how much madness and pressure you face each day it would be ridiculous to even propose such a thing. And that would be exactly why I am recommending that you find some time to do “nothing.” Now when I say find the time to do “nothing,” I am in no way suggesting that it should become our complete lifestyle. Finding time for “nothing” could mean just a few minutes each day. Maybe it’s even the start to our day or found at the end of a busy day where we can decompress and allow the enjoyment of “nothing” to take over. For some folks the need for “nothingness” could happen in the middle of the day as an escape. I am not sure about you, but when I actually practice this principle of “nothing,” my world comes back into perspective, I find my center, experience peace, and in some way I am actually able to accomplish more than when I am in full-on scramble mode. And in those quiet moments of my

“nothing” I also seem to hear so much more from my heart and my head that brings clarity, less worry, and comfort to what may be happening around me. My “nothingness-filled” moments oddly enough also inspire and motivate me, even spark my creativity. When was the last time you gave yourself permission to do “nothing”? Was it a quiet moment found somewhere in your home or office? Maybe you enjoyed a few minutes of “nothingness” outside during a walk or hike. There is actually a spot that I ski to sometimes in the trees where hardly anyone else ever goes, I stop and, surrounded by the aspens and pine trees, in the stillness of the mountain, I take a few minutes of doing “nothing.” Again, “nothing” really does matter when taken in the right context. Not the sluggard or sloth type associated with laziness, but rather the freeing, energizing, and yet restful form of “nothingness” that helps us to get back to where we really want to be or need to be in our life. I would love to hear your thoughts on doing “nothing” at gotonorton@gmail.com and maybe our week filled with a few moments of “nothing” will lead us to having a better than good week.

Out with old, in with new taxes
The tax filing deadline for 2012 is right around the corner. Don’t put everything away just yet. Now it is time to plan for 2013. The extension of the Bush-era tax cuts will not affect everyone equally. Don’t become complacent thinking you will not be impacted unless you make over $450,000. There were many changes put into law for the new tax code that could affect business owners, investors and households at certain income levels. Many changes did not catch the eye of the media, as the focus on the fiscal cliff was mostly on concerns of tax brackets returning back to pre-2003. However, more permanent language was inserted in the code that affects households with taxable income at $125,000 or higher. Consultants and self-employed business owners may see increases, especially if you are an S-Corp, LLC or Sole Proprietor — basically anyone whose business income is passed through to their personal tax return. This income could push you into a higher bracket or phase-out for IRA contributions, tuition deductions and possible loss of itemized deductions. New in 2013 is the increase in Medicare tax on anyone earning more than $200,000 this year. Also keep in mind there is no income cap on Medicare like there is on Social Security, which is $113,700 for 2013. Therefore you could be caught in the extra 0.9 percent added to your payroll tax on wages or business profits, even if you don’t take the profits out of the company. Beware also of the phase-out rules for certain exemptions. This includes education credits, personal exemptions and itemized deductions. Joint filers with over $125,000 taxable income start the phaseout on student loan interest. The American Opportunity Credit goes away starting at $80,000 for single filers and $160,000 ly for joint. The personal exemptions and even itemized deductions start to phase-out on income over $250,000 for single filers and ur$300,000 for married taxpayers. a There is also now an additional tax ur on investment proceeds. The Net Investew ment Income Tax (NII), also known as the ng a Unearned Income Medicare Contribution at I rdly
ng g
Tax, became effective this January. This was passed as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. The 3.8 percent surtax on investment income will be assessed at $200,000 for single filers and $250,000 for married couples filing jointly. Rental income, annuity payments and capital gains may be included in the type of income taxed at the new rate. The most significant changes were on joint incomes over $450,000 where the highest bracket of 39.6 percent was reinstated as well as long-term capital gains and qualified dividends rates increasing to 20 percent. For this group of taxpayers, the above-mentioned phase-out rules could add another 2 percent to their taxes in addition to the added payroll and investment tax. Retirement plan contributions increased this year by $500, pushing 401(k) contributions up to $17,500 with a $5,500 catch-up provision for anyone age 50 or older. IRAs are now limited at $5,500 with another $1,000 for those over age 50. Small business owners may contribute up to $56,500 in their 401(k) plan depending on age and income.

State’s obesity numbers hint at changing future By Kevin Vaughan I-News Network
Colorado is continually heralded as the fittest state in the country — but behind that ranking stand a host of health measures that paint a different picture, placing the state mid-pack or worse in things such as infant mortality and binge drinking. And even that No. 1 ranking — best — among the 50 states in the rate of adult obesity may mask serious future troubles: Colorado stands 23rd in childhood obesity and is even farther down the list in other key measures of the overall health of the state’s youngest population. “If we’re 23rd in kids and No. 1 in adults, how sustainable is that?” asked James Hill, a University of Colorado pediatrics professor who is involved in extensive obesity research. “I think that’s reason to be concerned — I really do.” Emily King, a research analyst at the Colorado Health Institute who compiled the data, said it is impossible to simply look at the
numbers and project the future. But it also may portend a reality very different from that experienced by the state’s adult population today. “The fact that our childhood obesity rate is much higher than it was in the past suggests that our adult obesity rates will be higher a couple of decades from now because we know that obese children are more likely to grow up to be obese adults,” she said. Other measures in the health institute’s data also suggested serious challenges for Colorado on issues related to children. For example, the state ranked 31st in late or non-existent prenatal care, 37th in low birth-weight babies and 42nd in children without insurance, according to an I-News examination of the health institute’s data. That data underpins the Colorado Health Foundation’s annual Colorado Health Report card. The report card uses the most recently available data to measure the relative health of Coloradans across a variety of areas that look at differ-
ent stages of life, from pre-natal and newborn care to adolescence, adulthood and the process of aging. The Colorado Health Foundation used the data this year to ask the question: “What if we were No. 1?” And while the state currently is when it comes to adult waistlines — 20.9 percent of the state’s population of 18- to 64-year-olds are obese, the lowest percentage in the nation — it’s a different issue when it comes to children. The most recent data estimated that 14.2 percent of Colorado’s children were obese. Oregon, by comparison, was No. 1, with 9.6 percent of its children obese. The Colorado Health Foundation estimated that if Colorado were to climb to No. 1 in childhood obesity, it would have 24,900 fewer kids living at an unhealthy weight. The foundation estimated other categories where changes in Colorado’s ranking would mean dramatic changes in statistics — and, perhaps, economics.
For example, the foundation estimated that Colorado residents and their employers could save $121 million a year in health care costs if it had the lowest rate of depression among the 50 states. In Colorado, 14.7 percent of the state’s adults reported that they had experienced “poor mental health.” That left Colorado ranked 13th among the states while North Dakota was No. 1, with 11.9 percent of adults reporting mental health problems. The report card also found that Colorado, if it could move to the top spot among the states, would annually have 2,100 more babies born at a healthy weight, 32,600 fewer high school students who smoke cigarettes, and 376,800 fewer adults who binge drink. The news wasn’t all bad — Colorado was first in older adults who participate in regular physical activity, fourth in adolescents who participate in regular physical activity and fifth-lowest in mothers who smoked during pregnancy. Still, CU professor Hill said he worries about the future if the
state can’t address the growing number of people who are obese. “Preventing obesity is going to be easier than treating it, so we’ve got to get serious about kids and preventing obesity in the first place,” Hill said. He said he would push for a simple goal in the beginning — for Colorado to maintain its current obesity rate as an important first step. “Let’s focus on not gaining weight, rather than losing weight,” Hill said. “In other words, if our obesity rates stayed the same in Colorado, the projected savings over the next seven to 10 years are in billions.” I-News is the public service journalism arm of Rocky Mountain PBS.

The ‘ins and outs’ of home warranties
B
uying a home is arguably one of the largest purchases a person will make. It can also be one of the most stressful. Individuals take quite a financial leap when buying a home. Even after careful consideration of funds and budgeting, it’s easy to become overextended. A home warranty can take some of the bite out of unexpected expenses. Although home buyers are urged to hire an inspector and check a property and structure from top to bottom before signing on the dotted line, a home inspector cannot foresee everything that may crop up after a person moves into a home. “When my home inspector reviewed the property he found only minor things that needed attention,” says Jeannine in New Jersey. “After Imoved in, we shortly learned that the crawl space had flooding issues that would require a lot of money to fix properly.” Home warranties can be a smart investment that take some of the financial pressure off of new
homeowners. They can also be negotiated into the sale terms of the home so that the seller is responsible for providing the warranty to the new buyer. Home warranties do not negate the need for homeowner’s insurance, but they can add protection against large monetary pay-outs to repair many items around the house. Policies may differ as to specific coverage, but most home warranties will cover major systems of the home, such as heating/ cooling, plumbing, electrical, as well as certain appliances. To decide if a warranty is the right investment, home buyers should consider the following: * Home warranties are only as good as the company backing them. Careful investigation into the trustworthiness of the warranty company and its track record should be completed. * Read the fine print of the warranty. Learn what exclusions exist, which may not make the warranty practical. * Keep in mind that the warranty company reserves the right
to determine if a repair or replacement is adequate in a claim situation. * In general, warranty companies work with their own set of contractors. This means a homeowner may not be able to hire his or her own preferred contractors to do work. * There may be a deductible or a fee charged prior to having a technician assess a repair situation. * The warranty company may require inspection of the house to be sure items are in good working order before offering a plan. * If a warranty is offered through a home seller, there may be no negotiation on the coverage or company used. Home buyers should keep in mind that there are many unforseen expenses that can arise when purchasing a new home. Having some additional protection, such as a home warranty, could mean saving money on outof-pocket repairs. ■ Metro Creative Services

Solheim: Cup scheduled for Aug. 13-18 Solheim continues from Page 1
glaring lack of lodging around Parker, and hotel rooms in Lone Tree and the Inverness Business Center are already booked through the six-day event. Latecomers are having to reserve rooms at hotels in Denver. It’s a good problem to have. The Solheim Cup is expected to deliver an economic boon to local businesses. The 2009 Solheim Cup, hosted by a course in a Chicago suburb, generated a $19.4 million economic impact for the area. “We have been told to expect very similar impacts and spectator profiles,” said John Hall, economic development director for Parker. The town has been assisting with logistics, including the locations of parking lots, and even contracted with Events Etc. specifically to help with the tournament. The event planning firm is providing tips to the owners of restaurants and shops to help them prepare for a temporary influx of customers. The suggestions are covering the basics, such as having more staff on hand, keeping more food in stock and extending business hours, said Josh Martin, a Parker Town Council member. “As we get closer to the
SOLHEIM CUP PROJECTIONS, BY THE NUMBERS Visitors: 125,000 TV viewers: 6 million Economic impact: roughly $20 million Spectators from out-of-state: 60 percent Number of players per team: 12
Dottie Pepper, left, and Meg Mallon, LPGA legends, are U.S. captains for the Solheim Cup golf tournament in Parker. They were at the Trio Breast Center at Parker Adventist Hospital to visit cancer patients. Photo by Chris Michlewicz event, the buzz is starting to pick up,” said Martin, who has been prepping for the Solheim Cup since before it was officially announced in summer 2011. Martin foresees both short- and long-term benefits from Parker hosting the international tournament. The brief “economic bump” will provide a boost for businesses and the town government. Martin theorized that a $20 million economic impact would bring in $1.6 million in sales tax revenue. But there is a grander vision in mind. “I think long-term, the exposure will be the most valuable piece,” he said. “This is such a unique opportunity to host a tournament of this type and this
magnitude.” Every shot will be broadcast live from the Colorado Golf Club, which hosted the 2010 Senior PGA Championship. Newell has an office at the course from which she oversees operations, volunteers, sponsors and team captains, among other responsibilities. She has helped coordinate a gala at The Wildlife Experience and assembled sponsorship packages for local companies, including Parker Adventist Hospital and E-470, the latter of which is a direct route from Denver International Airport to Parker. Newell is also communicating with a local business that’s producing a Parker restaurant guide and mobile app to help visitors
find destinations. Martin hopes the Solheim Cup can showcase the town’s most attractive assets, like the Colorado Horse Park equestrian venue, and convince visitors to either move their families or relocate their businesses to Parker. “We’re doing everything we can to put our best foot forward,” he said. The Solheim Cup — scheduled for Aug. 13-18 — deviates from the traditional style of tournament play, much like the men’s Ryder Cup. It pits the 12 best players from the United States against the top 12 players from Europe. The teams play for national pride, eliciting raucous cheers not typical of a professional golf event. The American team has never lost on U.S. soil and hopes to regain the coveted Waterford Crystal prize that the Europeans captured in Ireland in 2011.

Voucher: Both sides receive legal representation at no cost Voucher continues from Page 1
portance and they are such novel legal issues,” she said. A Colorado Court of Appeals three-judge panel ruled 2-1 that the voucher, or Choice Scholarship Program, is legal. It also said the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to bring suit, that the program doesn’t violate the state constitution’s requirement of a uniform system of free public schools and that it does not provide aid to religious schools. DCSD implemented the pilot program, allowing parents to use a portion of public school funds toward private school tuition, in March 2011. A Denver District Court judge ruled in August 2011 that the program violated the Colorado Constitution and school finance act, and the case was appealed. The appeals court said the state board of education is charged with enforcing the school finance act, not private citizens. Kleinkopf believes the district court got it right the first time. “The trial court found that taxpayers
and the individual plaintiffs all had the legal right to sue as taxpayers under the Colorado Public School Finance Act because, in fact, that is all about the proper disbursement of tax monies,” she said. “And we as taxpayers are being hurt by the violation of that statute. “It doesn’t make any constitutional or statutory sense at all to have the only party able to sue under statute being the very party that’s being sued for violations of the statute.” Kleinkopf also takes issue with the appeals’ court ruling that the program doesn’t violate the Colorado Constitution in giving public funds to religious institutions. But Michael Bindas, an attorney from the Institute for Justice who’s representing three of the voucher families, said the program is not religious in nature. Only one of his three clients chose a religious school for their student. “There are two critical components to a constitutional school choice program,” he said. “The first is that it has to be religion neutral, (that) religious and non-religious
‘The constitution provides a floor, not a ceiling, and the government is free to offer options beyond what the constitution requires.’ Anne Kleinkopf, Director of Taxpayers for Public Education schools alike are free to participate in the program. “The second critical component is private choice. The fact is, under the program, not a penny flows to any school — religious or non-religious — but for the private and independent choice of parents.” Kleinkopf is most concerned by what she views as the program’s potential for divisiveness. “Basically what they’re doing is funding two separate systems of schools, one a set of religious schools where students have to be admitted based on certain religious criteria,” she said.
“Another is the public school system itself, which is in fact free and open to all students.” Bindas sees it differently. “The constitution provides a floor, not a ceiling, and the government is free to offer options beyond what the constitution requires,” he said. “What the Douglas County program does is simply offer families within the district different options.” As the ACLU is doing for plaintiffs including Kleinkopf, Cindy Barnard and Jamie LaRue, Bindas is representing the voucher families at no cost.

Breaking news: A classic arrives ‘The Front Page’ on stage in Denver
if you go
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com A table filled with 1920s vintage telephones in assorted colors plus a couple of old desks with typewriters set the stage for “The Front Page” at Denver’s John Hand Theater, a funny, fast-talking look at a Chicago newsroom scene a la 1928. Writers Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur take us to a courthouse where a murderer on trial has just escaped. The basement media room lets reporters call in their news and/or type it there — well before the days of email.
“The Front Page” is presented by Spotlight Theatre Company through March 30 at the John Hand Theater, 7653 E. First Place, Denver. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday; 2 p.m. Sunday. 720-880-8727, www. thisisspotlight.com. The large cast of “The Front Page” includes eight reporters and overbearing, communist-hunting publisher Walter Burns (Ken Street). The latter is supposed to be modeled on the Chicago Tribune publisher of that time. His ace reporter, Hildy Johnson (Eric Galatas) is newly engaged and about to head to New York for marriage and a new career. His fiancee Peggy (Anna Hershey) and her mother are waiting at the train station
when the situation takes a sudden turn. Director Carol Petitmaire deftly manages a sizable cast on a small stage, cueing entrances and exits precisely so there is always some sort of action, including entrances by the bumbling Sheriff Hartman (Jesse Pearlman) and the scheming mayor (Wade Wood). Then there is the ditsy Mollie Malloy (Leigh Ann Gould), the criminal’s nasalvoiced girlfriend. Both playwrights brought newsroom experience to writing this fast-paced play — as well as a fine sense of comic timing. Some of the actors bring more stage experience than others and a broad comedy like this leads some to overplay their parts, but in general, the quality is quite good, providing an entertaining romp through a bit of history.
Jefferson Bible on display at museum Rare national treasure comes to History Colorado Center
if you go History Colorado Center is at 1200 Broadway, Denver. A general admission ticket will include the Jefferson Bible, on display until May 27. HistoryColoradoCenter.org, 303-HISTORY.
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com In 1820, after serving two terms as president, Thomas Jefferson, age 77, was living at his home, Monticello, reading and thinking. He determined to organize a Bible with materials from four translations — English, French, Latin and Greek — that he wanted included in a single volume that would chronologically trace the life and moral teachings of Jesus, as he understood them. It was not printed then, but was more like a scrapbook. He clipped pages and excerpted passages, creating his own Bible by hand. He called it “The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth.” The finished product was bound in red Moroccan leather with gold tooling. Material sent from the Smithsonian said that Jefferson had no intention of publishing this volume.
Thomas Jefferson’s Bible, “The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth,” which he assembled, will be exhibited at the History Colorado Center through May 27. Courtesy photo He realized his unorthodox views would offend some religious authorities and could be used against him by political opponents. The book stayed with his family until the Smithsonian’s librarian purchased it from Carolina Randolph, Jefferson’s great-great-granddaughter, in 1895. In 1904 lithographic reproductions were made for members of Congress.
This historic treasure, which will be exhibited through May 27 at History Colorado Center, was very fragile and underwent meticulous conservation, according to Smithsonian curator Harry Rubenstein. He and Janice Stagnitto Ellis, senior paper conservator at the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution, accompanied the Jefferson Bible to Denver.
She oversaw the conservation treatment, which is detailed at http://americanhistory.si.edu/ JeffersonBible. Making this historic treasure publicly accessible was a key goal behind its conservation, said Rubenstein, expressing his pleasure at loaning it to History Colorado, a Smithsonian affiliate institution. It will be exhibited with two English editions of the New Testament that Jefferson used to excerpt passages. Clips from the Smithsonian documentary, “Jefferson’s Secret Bible,” will be shown. Museum staff has planned numerous related programs, which will be listed online at HistoryColorado.org/calendar. For those who want to read the text, a facsimile edition will be for sale in the museum shop, including all four languages and Jefferson’s handwritten notes ($35).
The Celtic Tavern at 1801 Blake St. is in its 13th year of doing business and is ready to branch out by providing Denver’s only Off Track Betting facility. “We have changed as the business grew,” said owner Noel Hickey, “by expanding in 2004 into the space next door, opening Delaney’s cigar bar and lounge. We are now ready for the next change. On April 6, we will open the only Off Track Betting facility in the City and County of Denver. “It will add excitement in both bars. We will open at 10 a.m. every day. On May 4, Kentucky Derby day, we will be hosting one of the biggest Derby day parties seen in Colorado. With the help of our friends at the Ninth Door and Vesta Dipping Grill, the Blake Street trifecta will be the place to be.”

Brothers shift between worlds Magical play sparks dream-like state By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Rhythms, dramatic lighting, percussion, mythology, magic …. One walks out into the night after an evening with “The Brothers Size” in a somewhat dream-like state. Images and sounds from a different world remain with a viewer, setting her/him apart from the city traffic and lights for a time. This is the sort of experience one would wish for in every visit to the theater, but it seldom comes together so strongly. Young playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney, whose “Brother/Sister Plays” yielded “The Brothers Size,” is hailed as one to watch, moving fast into the theater community after a patchy start in a Florida project, with a crackaddicted mother. He graduated from Yale School of Drama’s Playwriting Program, working with the great August Wilson on his last play, “Radio Golf.” He was playwright-in-residence for the Royal Shakespeare Company and is a member of Chicago’s prestigious Steppenwolf Theatre Company … and more. Director Dee Covington has developed a sensitive, magical tale for today. The audience arrives at Curious Theatre, where “The Brothers Size”
If you go “The Brothers Size” plays through April 13 at Curious Theatre, 1080 Acoma St., Denver. Performances: 8 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays; 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: curioustheatre.org, 303-623-0524
Laurence Curry (Oshoosi), Damion Hoover (Elegba) and Cajardo Lindsey (Ogun) bring African rhythms and dance to “The Brothers Size” at Curious Theatre. Courtesy photo by Michael Ensminger plays through April 13, noting a steel jungle-appearing set with angled beams and a few platforms. Through Shannon McKinney’s dramatic lighting, it becomes a home, a jail, the bayou, a mechanic’s shop, inhabited by three men named for gods from the Yoruba Cosmology, which slaves brought to America many years ago. Jason Ducat’s sound design ties the work together. He writes of listening to recorded spirituals from the Alan Lomax collection, as well as studying music from the Yoruba culture. In rehearsal, he said the actors picked up on the music and it all came together. These three fine actors dance at times (The Alvin Ailey Dance Company was a strong influence on McCraney), use whatever is at hand for percussion and speak their stage directions as well as their lines, all in a strong rhythm.
They also sing at times, including a rousing version of Otis Redding’s “Try a Little Tenderness” and traditional spirituals. In Yoruba mythology, Ogun, the elder brother (Cajardo Lindsey), is the god of war and iron, while younger brother Oshoosi (Laurence Curry) is a forest spirit and divine hunter — also a wanderer. Elegba (Damion Hoover) is a messenger between the gods and the world, a shape-shifter. Sturdy Ogun, an auto mechanic who works from dawn to dusk, hopes his brother, just released from jail, will settle down and work with him, but charming Oshoosi lazes in bed, dreaming of women and cars. Hovering is jail-mate Elegba, in a contest for Oshooi’s soul — and body. McCraney said beautiful Yoruba tales were complex and had not-sohappy endings, which fits this contemporary, yet otherworldly, story. This is a true “don’t miss” for theater-lovers.

Tamayo adds bottomless brunch
Tamayo, the 12-year-old Larimer Square high-end Mexican spot that recently went through a major renovation, has upped the ante on brunch. Some gal pals and I got invited to a friends and family tire-kicking try-out of brunch on Sunday, which featured a $35 all-you-can-eat and drink “bottomless Margarita bunch” for $35. But the “drink” part isn’t limited to Margaritas. Mimosas made with traditional orange juice, guave, mango or blood orange, as well as Bloody Marys and Bloody Marias are included.
And, if you’re a teetotaler, the price drops to $20; $10 for children 12 and under. The menu includes sopas y ensaladas, antojitos (starters), tacos and tortas and cazuelas (baked eggs).
Glass Half Full unveils drink menu
Glass Half Full, the stand-alone bar inside Alamo Drafthouse Littleton, unveiled its cocktail menu available to moviegoers when the theater and bar opened this week. The bar pours locally distilled spirits from companies such as Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey and Leopold Bros., as well as a seasonal cocktail menu curated by Alamo Drafthouse Beverage Director Bill Norris. “With the signature drinks at Glass Half Full, we’re trying to bridge the gap between the beer drinker and the cocktail drinker,” said Norris.

success helps build Legend program 89 players tried out for four teams this spring By Jim Benton
sports@ourcoloradonews.com Parker — In 2009, when Scott Fellers gave his first signals from the coaching box for the Legend baseball program, he had 20 players divided into two teams and everybody played in every scheduled game. This spring, there were 89 players trying out for the four teams in the Titans program. Success, it seems, is inviting. After going 3-8 in its first season in the Class 5A Continental League in 2011, Legend tied for the league championship last spring and the Titans were second in the state tournament. “Every year, we’ve built another piece for those kids that have stayed with us,” Fellers said. “We’re finally at the point now where we are deep.” Deep enough to be one of the preseason favorites in the Continental League along with Chaparral, Regis Jesuit, ThunderRidge and Mountain Vista. “Our league is pretty deep,” Fellers said. “From top to bottom with our top six or seven teams, it is a fight every game.” Legend heads into this season with renewed confidence after a 19-7 campaign in 2012 that saw the Titans win league extrainning road games in 16, 10, and nine innings, and then come within one game of
claiming the Class 5A state championship. Regis beat unbeaten Legend to force a championship game against Cherry Creek in the double elimination state tournament. Cherry Creek, which had lost to the Titans earlier in the tournament, won the title game, 6-0. “We always say in terms of coaching, your season is usually done May 3 if you don’t make the playoffs,” Fellers said. “We went until May 26. It gave us more weeks of practice, preparation and playing highly intense games where you learn from that. “It was kind of a deer in the headlights when we played Creek the second time. We beat Creek the first time we played them. That kind of woke us up to say we can compete with these guys. The longer we went in the tournament, helped us realize we can compete with people. Going into this year, we have a lot more confidence. The confidence is there, the experience is there and it will help our program.” Legend has six starters back but lost 19 pitching victories with the graduation of Brooks Trujillo, Jake Jenkins and Tyler Honahan. However, versatile returning All-State player Bobby Dalbec, Legend’s all-time batting leader, will assume the role as the Titans’ No. 1 starter and will also play shortstop. “I was the ace my freshman and sophomore years,” said Dalbec, who has signed to play for Arizona next year. “It might take a game or two to get back into being a starter, but I think I’ll be fine. My arm feels real

good. “I think we can get back this year to where we were and win it. Our lineup is stronger and balanced. We don’t have a power pitcher necessarily, but we have a lot of pitchers who can handle themselves. We were underdogs last year. We’ve always been underdogs since this school started. I think we’re going to turn people’s heads again.” Senior Mickey Templeton, one of the state’s best defensive catchers, feels the Titans’ non-league schedule will get the team ready for Continental League play and another possible state tournament appearance. “We’ll compete,” Templeton said. “We have a lot harder schedule this year.

We’re going to have to prove ourselves again. The target we have on our backs and the schedule we have at the beginning of the year, we have to push through that and learn from that. “We had a great season last year, but at the end we failed, so that’s something we can use to get right back where we were and try to change the story.” Legend is off to a slow 1-4 start this season and Regis is 1-2 in the early going. Chaparral has yet to play a game, ThunderRidge is 2-0 and both teams are heading to Arizona this week. Mountain Vista could be a team that should also contest, as the Golden Eagles have been impressive in winning their first two games.

All-state girls put on five-game show Contests held at Arvada West By Scott Stocker
sports@ourcoloradonews. com It couldn’t have been a better night for Horizon’s Kaylie Rader with her appearance in the Colorado Coaches of Girls Sports Allstate Basketball Games. Rader, along with teammate Gabriela Jimenez, scored a game-high 28 points as she led the Red team, coached by Caryn Jarocki of Highlands Ranch, to a 91-59 victory against the Blue in the 5A game. It was one of five played on the evening during the CCGS Awards and All-state Games weekend. The games were played at Arvada West High School March 24, while the awards dinner was held March 22 at the DoubleTree Hotel in Westminster. The games were played following college rules, as all the players in the games have completed their senior seasons at their respective high schools. The Blue was coached by Grandview’s Josh Ulitzky. Rader was certainly a force inside for the Red team, which, for the most part, was on the short side. Behind her 14 first-half points, the Reds built a 4027 halftime lead. She added 14 more in the second half. Jimenez would add all 10 of her points to the secondhalf run. “It was such a great honor to have played in the All-state Games,” Rader said. “From the beginning we were able to get out and run. For the most part, our team is composed of guards and we clicked right from the beginning.” Ralston Valley’s Lauren Yowell was the second-leading scorer for the Red as she popped in 17 points, 14 of which came in the second half. “It was just real cool to play with all this talent,” said Yowell, who will head to Black Hills State in the Fall. “We learned the plays in just one afternoon of practice. I’ve never played on a team that has scored
100 points and, at least, we came close. I’ve played against some of the others on our team and against some from the Blue. It was just a great night.” Chaparral’s Katie Longwell was the leading scorer for the Blue in the 5A game with 15 points. The only other player to reach double figures was Denver East’s Francesca Sally with 12.
`Great experience’ in 4A
The Blue, under coach Jeff Beatty of Mesa Ridge, had the scoring punch in the 4A game, coming through with an 86-59 victory. Four players scored in double figures for the winners, with Lyndy Puckett of Centaurus scoring 16. Windsor’s Korbyn Ukasick popped in 15, Ifti Dunne of Mesa Ridge had 14 and Kendra Martin of Denver South, 13. “This was really a great experience and so much fun to play with the best players in 4A,” Puckett said. “Since we didn’t have any big girls we had to run-and-shoot. I’m not sure about college for myself, but I certainly want to play.” Anna Hubbell, also from Centaurus, only scored six points, but was one of the assist leaders with six. “It was a great opportunity to play and we had an awesome coach,” said Hubbell. “This team was mostly composed of guards and that was a key as we were really able to move the ball. We had the composure and the ball handling was great.”

Parachute pioneer lauded Legendary jumper Hall honored with benefit for son By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com At 86, retired Air Force Brig. Gen. James “Jim” Hall may not be suiting up for another free-fall jump, but many of the technical improvements he engineered decades ago still are. A master parachutist with more than 1,800 jumps, Hall became a legend in the field of parachuting, including helping launch the Air Force Academy’s premier parachute program. Hall, accompanied by his family, was toasted at a March 24 reception at the Glenmoor Country Club in Cherry Hills Village. Lauded by the likes of former Colorado Gov. Bill Owens, U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman and former U.S. Rep. Bob Beauprez, more than 150 guests attended the Irish-themed event that also served as a benefit for his special-needs son, Eagle Hall, who hopes to continue to participate in the Special Olympics James Hall, who is a graduate of the both the Army Parachute School and the U.S. Forest Service Smoke Jumper School,
is credited with creating the “buddy system” for free fall and the “4-line cut” for parachuting emergencies. In 1959, Hall and a partner founded the first professional parachuting firm ever. “Almost every parachute development done for the U.S. Air Force Academy in the first 30 years came from Gen. Hall,” said retired Lt. Col. John Buckley, a former combat pilot. “Brig. Gen. Hall’s developments saved lives.” Hall’s life accomplishments are the stuff from which legends are made. From conversations with Fidel Castro and Che Guevera, to Hollywood stuntmen, Hall’s accomplishments are the stuff from which legends are born. In 1965, Hall suited up to conduct the first zero-zero ejection seat test for the F-106. The test was known as Project 90, and zero-zero refers to the fact Hall was propelled more than 400 feet in the air from an aircraft cockpit at zero feet in altitude and zero knots velocity. Hall often jokes about the event, saying he has been “kicked in the a-- harder than that.” Irish tenor Anthony Kearns performed a short repertoire of traditional Irish ditties, much to Hall’s delight. “Wow, I didn’t know I had this many
