CASA adjusts to new rules By Pat Hill

phill@ourcoloradonews.com A decision by the Colorado Supreme Court changed the rules for Court Appointed Special Advocate as well as for the 4th Judicial District in El Paso and Teller counties. The change relates to CASA’s domestic-relations volunteer program. Since 1992, the 4th Judicial has been the only district in Colorado to rely on reports from CASA volunteers who act in the interest of the child in conflicted custody

disputes. In that time, CASA advocated for 1,000 children in both counties. “Domestic relations are those extreme nasty divorce cases,” said Dawn Ignatius, president of the CASA board and a resident of Teller County. The decision mandates that Child Family Investigators be certified and paid for their services in domestic-relations cases in Colorado. While intended to strengthen regulations for privately-paid CFIs, the ruling inadvertently impacted CASA.

In Teller County last year, 19 children were caught in conflicted-divorce cases, each of whom received a CASA volunteer advocate. “I am sorry to hear about the termination of the CASA domestic-relations program,” said 4th Judicial District Judge Robert Lowrey in a press release. “I was hoping we could find a way to work around the decision as currently structured.” The ruling affects 40 CASA volunteers in both counties, each of whom can petition the state to become trained and certified as private-pay CFIs. “The certified CFIs would then get appointed by the bench,” said Mittie Pedraza, CASA’s director of programs. “As part of the rules the state now trains the CFIs and we can’t supervise them anymore. Because we can’t recruit or train them, edit their reports or go to court with them, there’s nothing we can do.” The new rules cap the privatepayment of CFIs at $2,000 per case, or, if the family cannot afford to pay, the state caps the compensation at $1,250. However, advocating in court in domestic relations is only one part of CASA’s work to keep children safe. “The dependency and neglect cases are our `bread and

CASA volunteers always take photos of the children for whom they advocate in court. Photos by Courtesy photos by Adam Ramseth butter,’” Ignatius said. “That’s what we exist for. Those children get involved in the court system because of abuse and neglect.” For instance, last year CASA volunteers advocated in court for 409 children who suffered abuse and neglect. “That program has not been affected whatsoever, nor

has our Supervised Exchange and Parenting Program been affected,” Pedraza said. “It is what it is. Rules change. I think we had a positive impact in our work and someday if the rules change and we can get back in the game, we will. But until then we’ll concentrate on our other programs.”

RE-2 completes 300+ maintenance projects District continues to look at building, grounds safety, security By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com The maintenance and operations teams at the Woodland Park RE-2 School District has had a busy eight months since Jeff Gatlin, director of technology services, unveiled a database that tracks needed repairs and regular maintenance across the district. Of the 482 items that were identified as needing work during building walkthroughs conducted last May, more than 300 have been completed. He told the RE-2 school board at its Jan. 9 meeting that the

district also conducted some larger maintenance and operations projects. One of the largest was the installation of a new “smart” irrigation system at the high school football field that automatically adjusts irrigation to the weather. The district also partnered with the city on a new irrigation meter. Irrigation water delivered by one part of the irrigation system was billed with water used inside the high school building and was included in the district’s wastewater bill. However, the city doesn’t charge a wastewater fee on irrigation water. “We think changing out the meter will save the district $2,000-$3,000,” Gatlin said. The district also bought its own paint striper and backhoe, which will allow some kinds of maintenance and repair work to be done in-house. Maintenance crews

have upgraded all elementary school playgrounds for safety, replaced stadium lights and repaired roofs. Crews also addressed a drainage problem that typically sends mud into the high-school math wing every spring. “We think we’ve fixed the problem,” Gatlin said. “We’ll see this spring. …We did all this work without asking for more money from the district’s fund balance.” The district’s next priority is upgrading its heating and air conditioning systems. “These systems all have moving parts and moving parts eventually break,” Gatlin said. He added that he would like the district to look into creating a roof-replacement account. District Superintendent Jed Bowman said the district installed key-card entry systems and video security cameras on

all school buildings two years ago and has continued to look for ways to improve security equipment and procedures. “We practice and plan and continue to do the best we can to ensure the safety of our children,” he said. He also reported that the district is forming a budget taskforce subcommittee to look at the district’s financial future in light of continuing enrollment declines. He said the district will probably see further enrollment declines for the next five years before enrollment levels off and starts to climb again. “We are still hearing positive news from the state regarding public school funding for 2013-2014,” he said. The next board of education meeting will be at 7 p.m. on Feb. 13 in the district administration building conference room.

Weather closes down WP construction season Woodland Hardware on hiatus, two retail stores delayed to February By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews. com Frost in the ground has shut down construction of the new Woodland Hardware store at Woodland Station in the center of Woodland Park and delayed the opening of the Family Dollar and

O’Reilly Auto Parts stores at Tamarac Center behind Gold Hill South. Woodland Park Downtown Development Authority Executive Director Brian Fleer told the authority board at its Jan. 8 meeting that the city has finished its portion of the drainage work at the Tamarac site and that city Public Works Director William Alspach

won an award for his infrastructure work from the American Public Works Association. Fleer also told the board that Woodland Hardware Kelly Rodarmel co-owner said he doesn’t expect the new store to open until January 2014. Family Dollar will likely open at the end of February and O’Reilly will open in midFebruary. Opening late will not affect the authority’s tax revenue because all three stores have “payment in lieu of taxes” clauses in their contracts, said board President Dale Schnitker. The authority board went into an executive session for negotiation purposes after the public portion of the meeting but Fleer said the board reconvened the Construction continues on Page 3

Changing of the guard in Teller By Pat Hill

worked together over the years has been phenomenal,” Turley said. “At budgetary times we’ve had open communication, good partnering and you can’t ask for more than that.” Ray DuBois, general manager of the Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Co. agreed. “You’ve restored my faith in government; I wish we had people like you at the federal level,” he said. “I appreciate the support you’ve given the mine and everything you’ve done for the county.” Ann Oatman Gardner, representative from the Colorado Springs office of Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo., drew laughs by emphasizing Buckhanan’s Republican ideology. “I couldn’t come up here without having Commissioner Buckhanan telling me exactly how things stood, couldn’t get out until I heard exactly how he felt about what Michael was doing in the U.S. Senate,” she said. “I always appreciated that. As far as the new guys, you can go anywhere you want with me, because Bill has always kept me honest. I welcome it.” Apparently, Ignatius was easier on Bennet’s representative. “Jim, it’s hard to see you go because you are the go-to guy for me in understanding how PILT (payment in lieu of taxes on public lands), Coalition for Upper South Platte and the Forest Service works, so I’m gonna come find you,” she said. “You’re not off the hook. And thank you so much for your service from Michael Bennet.”

phill@ourcoloradonews.com A time to reflect and a time to say goodbye, the first Teller County commissioners’ meeting of 2013 was a farewell-hello event. As Jim Ignatius and Bill Buckhanan sat in the commission chairs for the last time Jan 8, Marc Dettenrieder and Norm Steen took their seats. While neither blushed, Ignatius and Buckhanan were heralded and their praises sung by several members of the audience. Buckhanan’s is the voice of reason, said county treasurer Bob Campbell. “We were always able to rely on your common sense and morality in making good decisions with principled ideas,” Campbell said. Buckhanan thrust the county into the national eye by serving on the public-lands committee for the National Association of Counties; locally, he was on the workmen’s compensation board for County Technical Services, Inc. A familiar figure around southern Teller County, Buckhanan could be counted on for support at community events such as Donkey Derby Days and the county fair. On the northern end of the county, Ignatius has been a “tremendous leader” for the past 9 ½ years, Campbell continued. “We praise your efforts in obtaining gaming and forest-health funds, which will be a legacy for generations to come,” he said, referring to Ignatius’s success in attracting hundreds of thousands of dollars for fire-mitigation projects. In a time of rancor among today’s state and federal leaders, Woodland Park Mayor Dave Turley recognized the two for their spirit of cooperation. “The way we’ve

BUCKHANAN AND IGNATIUS SAY GOODBYE

In bidding farewell, Buckhanan and Ignatius were reflective. “I just want to thank the people of Teller County. Back in 2004

A going-away present for exiting and term-limited Teller County commissioner Jim Ignatius, new signs at the entrance of Teller County, north, south, west and east, were part of the farewell celebration Jan. 8. A gift to Ignatius from county administrator Sheryl Decker, the signs are a response to Ignatius’s continual complaint about the off-putting message that welcomes travelers to the county. Rather than “welcome,” the signs caution drivers that Teller County is zoned. Ignatius has been “bugged” about the signs for years. Photo by Pat Hill when I ran for this office, I told people that some days I’m going to make you mad, some days I’m going t make you happy. I hope that I’ve made you happier than I’ve made you mad. “While sitting at this desk I’ve had some people upset and disappointed with me. There have been times I’ve been accused of things I didn’t do and times when I’ve done some things I didn’t receive recognition for. But, basically, I am thankful for the opportunity to work for the people of Teller County.” Ignatius took his leave with a prediction. “The transition is going to be very smooth; over the past six months Marc and Norm

have shadowed us consistently, at meetings all over the community,” he said. “They will continue to provide great leadership and vision to the county. The employees in this county are just awesome; it’s been an honor to work with each and every one of you.” At a farewell reception that evening, Ignatius offered a clue about where he found the energy to work so diligently for Teller County, at the local, state and national levels. “The political process is frustrating but unbelievably rewarding when you can make a difference for your country. This process works,” he said.

COUNTY NEWS IN A HURRY Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Co. is moving ahead with construction on preparing for extending mining operations from 2016 to 2025. Currently, the mine is in the process of removing trees in Squaw Gulch where the project includes a new leach facility and recovery center. The trees will be stockpiled and secured. As soon as the mine’s contractors can get into the area without interfering

with construction activities and, depending upon weather, CC & V will haul the trees to designated sites in Victor and Cripple Creek for public consumption. Construction on the Colo. 67 crossing at the north end of Squaw Gulch begins the week of Jan. 14. Along with the construction, the public can anticipate short stops for truck crossing on the road between Victor to Cripple Creek.

Counterfeit ring busted in Teller County By Pat Hill

phill@ourcoloradonews.com In Teller County it doesn’t pay to pass counterfeit bills. Four people tried it and are now in the Teller County jail. As of Jan. 8, Sheriff’s deputies had arrested Monica Paradise, 24, Brian Joe, 27, David Bowers, 50, and Austin Gulla, 21, in a counterfeit ring that came to light Jan. 4. Acting on tips from clerks at the liquor store and Stop `n Save in Divide, sheriff’s deputies identified the suspects from the stores’ video-surveillance cameras which also revealed a vehicle, a Ford Tau-

agents. According to Teller County Sgt. Marc Porcelli, the four are expected to be charged with theft for receiving a forgery, criminal possession and forged instruments. “We

believe we have the suspects who were passing bills up here,” Porcelli said in a press conference Jan. 8. In the interview process the suspects revealed the location of a house in Colorado Springs where that city’s police department, along with the deputies and Secret Service agents, arrested and took custody of another suspect. Officers also found a vehicle and trailer that had been reported stolen. As well, they found illegal drugs in the home. Officers also took custody of the equipment, a computer and printer, used in making the bills, in denominations of $10s, $20s and

$50s, mostly $20s. “If you looked at the bill quickly it looked like a regular $20 bill but if you inspected it, you’d notice the feel was different, the water mark you see when you put it up to the light wasn’t there,” Porcelli said. “But at a quick glance you probably would not be able to pick it out.” The arrests follow a monthlong investigation into a counterfeit operation in Woodland Park but, to date, officers haven’t established a connection, Porcelli said. “Any time anyone passes a counterfeit bill, it’s stealing and the businesses take a loss,” he added.

The authority has its monthly board meetings in an empty office on the lower level of the Vectra Bank building but within the next few weeks that office will no longer be empty. It has been leased to an unnamed party and Fleer is seeking a different meeting place for its February meeting. City Planning Director Sally Riley introduced Lisa Parnell as the city’s new planner. Former planner Scott Woodford has moved with his family to Oregon. Parnell has a master’s degree in urban planning and previously worked for the city as an administrative assistant.

Clark starts third term Three members of the Board of El Paso County Commissioners, six Judges of the Fourth Judicial District and two judges of the County Court began their new terms during an Oath of Office Ceremony Jan. 8. One of the reelected commissioners was Sallie Clark who represents El Paso County’s third district, including the Ute Pass communities of Cascade, Chipita Park and Green Mountain Falls.

In 2010, county voters passed a ballot question that gave most elected officials the opportunity of serving three terms. This year, voters reversed that decision, changing term limits for most elected officials back to two four-year terms. However, that decision didn’t affect the reelection of Clark and fellow commissioners Dennis Hisey and Amy Lathen to third terms.

Deadline looms for fire, flood recovery funding Special to The Tribune and Courier El Paso County Office of Communications

A collaborative effort which includes the Board of the El Paso County Commissioners has sent a letter to all members of the Colorado Congressional delegation urging them to support $19.8 million in requested funding for Colorado Emergency Watershed Protection. The Supplemental Appropriation for Disaster Assistance legislation under consideration in the House of Representatives supports recovery for Super Storm Sandy but does not include funding for mitigation efforts in the disastrous Waldo Canyon and High Park wildfires in Colorado. The letter highlights urgent needs in areas affected

by the Waldo Canyon burn scar including: El Paso County is working with private landowners, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), School District 14 and others to protect the City of Manitou Springs and U.S. 24 West from significant erosion and flooding issues which also threaten lives and property in the Ute Pass areas of Chipita Park and Cascade. City of Colorado Springs and Colorado Springs Utilities need additional funding to reduce flooding, sedimentation and debris flow impacts on facilities critical to collecting, storing and conveying raw drinking water to approximately 70 percent of city residents. Additionally, the Navigators and Flying W Ranch need additional funds to protect public and private

facilities, including significant historic structures such as Glen Eyrie Castle. If EWP funding for the Colorado wildfire recovery not included by amendment to Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Assistance the process will become much more difficult and the outcome more uncertain. In addition to the El Paso County Board of County Commissioners, the Colorado Springs Mayor’s Office, Colorado Springs City Council, Regional Business Alliance, Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments, Larimer County Commissioners, City of Greeley, Colorado Springs Utilities, Colorado Counties Inc. and the Colorado Municipal League are all signatories on the letter.

Legislators have big issues on their plate Democrats control both houses, governor’s office By Staff report Colorado’s General Assembly went into session Jan. 9 with Democrats in control of the House, Senate and the governor’s office. But by most accounts, jobs and the economy remain the No. 1 priority for Colorado’s lawmakers. New Speaker of the House Mark Ferrandino said as much a few days before the session kicked off, stating plans to roll out a series of economic bills. More will be reported on the topic as legislative proposals emerge. What follows is a look at other important and controversial issues legislators are expected to tackle this session, which is scheduled to end May 8. • Gun control: Last summer’s Aurora theater shooting and the more recent Connecticut school shooting have sparked new efforts across the nation to restrict access to certain types of guns and ammunition. But perhaps nowhere will the gun-control debate be more heated than in Colorado, a state that traditionally has shown staunch support for the Second Amendment. Gov. John Hickenlooper has stated that the time is right for the discussion on gun control. The Democratic Legislature appears poised to make that a priority. State Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, plans to introduce two bills, one that would expand background checks for would-be gun buyers and another that would ban highcapacity magazine clips. Other lawmakers have chosen to focus this debate on treatment of the mentally ill rather than on guns themselves. • Fracking: The popular term for hydraulic fracturing involves pumping mil-

With the legislative session beginning last week, citizens can expect a broad a range of debate under the Dome in the coming days and weeks. Photo by Rob Carrigan lions of gallons of water mixed with sand and chemicals deep underground to break up layers of rock and extract oil and natural gas. Noise, air pollution, water consumption and risk to groundwater have all become contentious issues. Changes are already under way, with the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Com-

mission recently approving a rule to require groundwater testing before and after drilling, and giving preliminary approval to increased setbacks from buildings. The panel will make a final setback decision the week of Jan. 21. Limits on noise, emissions and dust and protections against spills also are being considered.

• Marijuana: Colorado’s Amendment 64 task force is on the job. And it’s quite a task. The 24 members of the panel are charged with making sense of a multitude of issues related to recreational marijuana use, which voters made legal in the November election. The task force has only until the end of February to compile their recommendations and pass on to the Legislature. A few among the many questions they will consider: Should marijuana be regulated like alcohol as opposed to the medical marijuana model? Should pot tourism be prevented by allowing only Colorado residents to purchase it? What can be done to ensure those under 21 years of age are not able to purchase and use the plant? • Civil unions: This appeared well on its way to passing during last year’s session before last-minute maneuvering prevented a vote. Having a Democratic majority in both chambers makes it highly likely this will be taken up again and passed. As for the possibility of moving beyond civil unions to gay marriage, Ferrandino, who is openly gay, said in December, “I don’t think we’re there yet as a state.” • Education: Funding for both higher education and K-12 education is expected to draw much attention from lawmakers. House Minority Leader Mark Waller recently said higher-education funding needs to be a priority, while Ferrandino said adequately funding the K-12 system is his party’s No. 2 priority this session behind only jobs and the economy. • The death penalty: Weeks before the session began, state Rep. Claire Levy, DBoulder, said she was exploring the possibility of introducing legislation to ban the death penalty in Colorado. In December, new Senate President John Morse said, “If it is brought up this year, I will likely vote to repeal it.” The state has not executed a prisoner since 1997.

Taking balance by the horns By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one in three adults age 65 and older falls each year and many of these falls result in injury and yet few older adults talk to their healthcare provider about falling. One of the most common causes of falling in older adults is impaired balance and to help older adults prevent balance-related falls, in 2004 the CDC, the National Council on Aging and

Boston University developed an evidence-based program called “A Matter of Balance” for adults age 60 and older. With a grant from the federal Administration on Aging, through the Pikes Peak YMCA and the Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments Area Council on Aging, the program is coming to Teller County. The first series of eight weekly classes with be in Florissant and is limited to 12 people. If the Florissant class fills up, Rebecca Janecek, who has taught the class before, will offer another class in Wood-

land Park. “I can offer the class twice in Teller County,” Janecek said. “I will start a waiting list for that second series.” The class is free to people age 60 and older but is open to people of any age who have fears or concerns about falling or who feel they need to improve their balance. “A Matter of Balance” will be offered from 1:45-3:45 every Thursday Jan 24-March 14 at the Florissant Public Library. Call Janecek at 719-9360988 for more information or to sign up for the class.

Disaster relief day at Eagle Lake Camps By Cadet CMSgt Shannon Cornuke Civil Air Patrol, Air Academy Composite Squadron

Civil Air Patrol members from several squadrons in Colorado had an exciting and very hard working day at Eagle Lake Camps Sept. 2012. Cadets and senior members provided disaster relief for a camp located in Ute Pass west of Colorado Springs. This day of community service was only a

small part of what many organizations have done to help fire relief in the area of the Waldo Canyon Fire. The Waldo Canyon Fire in June 2012 destroyed a significant portion of land in central Colorado, the Rocky Mountains and Pike National Forest. Thankfully, the fires didn’t burn Eagle Lake Camps, but they did burn all around it, almost making a complete circle around the camp. It has taken months and months

of hard work from the camp employees and volunteers to help with burned land as a result of the fires. Since there were no more healthy trees to stop flooding around the area, cadets and senior members took down burned trees on difficult terrain, hammered tarps over the trees, then shoveled dirt onto the tarps. It was a long and physically tiring day for everyone involved; they had their faces covered in ash by the end

6-OPINION OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

January 16, 2013

Golden impact: Vein winds its way through area’s history Nearly everyone knows of the impact of Cripple Creek gold on the history and construction of the city of Colorado Springs. Mansions that line “Old North End” streets like Wood, Cascade, and Nevada Avenues owe their existence to the wealth generated in the mines. Public buildings like the Main Post Office, the Mining Exchange, and even the old courthouse that now houses the Pioneer’s Museum were paid for with district dirt. But few realize how deep, pervasive and intertwined that golden vein entangles area influence and origin. An example resides in the coalmines in the northwestern area of the city. “The Pikes Peak Fuel Division, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Golden Cycle Corp., produced and sold lignite coal at its Pikeview Mine, located just north of Colorado Springs, for many years,” wrote Max W. Bowen in a profile about the Golden Cycle Corp. in the December, 1960 edition of The Mines Magazine. “During the World War II period, the

power plant Pikeview, having capacity in excess of 8,000 kilowatts, served in a standby capacity to the city of Colorado Springs, thereby insuring the city of sufficient power capacity to serve the numerous armed services establishments in the region.” “The Fuel Division also operated a sand, crushed rock and gravel business, supplying most of the concrete aggregate used in the region for the past several years. Prior to abandoning the railroad (Midland) in 1949, crushed rock aggregate was produced in the Cripple Creek District and shipped to Colo-

rado Springs by rail,” Bowen wrote in 1960. The development of the Woodman Valley area is also very much tied to Golden Cycle Corp. presence as well. The Golden Cycle Corp secured clear title to Monument Park Land Company in 1913 “From 1913 this corporation, or its subsidiary Pikes Peak Fuel, held most of the land from Pikeview into Woodman Valley. From the shaft at Pikeview, tunnels ran north and west through most of the area south of Woodman Road. Although there was also coal north of Woodman Road, the surface rock made the area generally unsuitable for mining,” according John Kitch, Jr. in his 1970 book Woodman Valley. By 1959, the two smaller valleys north of where the Modern Woodman of America Sanatorium had been serving tuberculosis patients for years, were being called Hidden Valley and Red Spring Valley. “Both were slowly being settled by new residents who had purchased homesites

from the Golden Cycle Corporation,” wrote Kitch. The sanatorium closed to patients in 1947 and by 1950, it had been purchased by wealthy financier and philanthropist Blevins Davis. Davis wife was heiress to a fortune originally linked to James Hill railroad money. (Davis at one time was partial owner of The Gold Rush newspaper.) “He promptly sold off the 180 octagonal Gardiner cottages, many of which can still be seen in the Pikes Peak area. A rumor circulated at this time that the property was to be used for a Summer White House, allowing the entire presidential staff to escape the heat of Washington,” Kitch writes. The Sisters of Saint Francis Seraph were eventually the benefactors of that land, more than $2.3 million dollars, and a Broadmoor mansion. Renamed St. Joseph’s Convent, Mount St. Francis, the property was dedicated as the order’s Mother House of the Western Province in 1954. It continues to serve in that capacity.

Life in the waiting room

Doing the weight-loss math

Recently for about two weeks, because of a family member’s serious illness, I and other members of my family spent many quality hours in the Critical Care waiting room at a Colorado Springs hospital. Unlike surgical waiting rooms, in or outpatient, Critical Care waiting becomes a home away from home. We saw the same people every day. We were all waiting for news of our loved ones or chances to visit, hoping to see some sign of recognition: a squeezed hand, a fleeting smile, the nod of a head or even a just the blink of an eye. The other families waiting with us became our family, too. We shared our stories, the good ones and the not-sogood ones. We shared our fears and our hopes; we had plenty of each. When we heard the two-part tone and the voice announcing “Code Blue, Code Blue,” we froze, hoping the next words wouldn’t be your loved one’s room number. When it wasn’t, we breathed a sigh of relief but we also felt the fears of that other family who wasn’t so fortunate. Sometimes, if you’ve been there long enough, a nurse will call before the code and tell you it isn’t your sibling, spouse, child or parent. Everyone waits in a different way. Some stare into space, lost in their own world. Others wait better when their hands are busy. My sister-in-law crocheted animals and dressed dolls for every child who waited in Critical Care during the nearly two weeks we were there. I worked on a crocheted rug, tearing it out and restarting it over and over because I couldn’t concentrate on the pattern. My brother, who usually manned the overnight shift, read 64 books on his e-reader.

A recent headline in the IDEA Fitness Journal (an international educational magazine for fitness instructors) grabbed my attention. “Understand the Math of Weight-Loss” by Fabio Comana, MA, MS, tackled the complex issues of the many mathematical models that are put forward in the interest of helping people lose weight. With a recent international analysis of almost 3 million adults from around the world showing that for people with an existing medical condition survival is slightly better for those who are a bit heavier, perhaps weight-loss is not for everyone. The research study found that compared to normal weighted people with an existing medical condition, overweight people had a 6 percent lower risk of death. That’s the good news. The bad news is that people who are obese face an 18 percent higher risk of death. While those of you who are overweight ponder whether to shed a few pounds or not, let me share the latest news on weightloss math with those of you who tip the scales as obese or are close to. The Canadian website, The Globe and Mail, reported the opinion of U.S. researchers that the long-standing equation of eating 500 calories less a day would lead to a pound of weight-loss a week, based on there being 3,500 calories in a pound, was “overly simple and overly optimistic.” And that “the equation may lead to unrealistic expectations for those trying to lose weight.” The problem with the age-old formula is that it does not account for how one’s metabolism changes during weight-loss. At last year’s annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, an international team of researchers introduced a new formula for weight-loss. Taking into consideration the changes that occur in a person’s resting metabolism, the rate at which one burns calories at rest, and the fact that your body’s metabolism determines how easily you gain

Some groups had family members coming in from all over the country to help them with the long wait. When I complimented one Michigan woman on her choice of a Colorado Rockies hoodie, she said, “This is a team?” She thought it advertised the mountain range with the same name; an honest mistake for the non-baseball fan. After a while we grew used to the ebb and flow of waiting-room time. We learned, for example, that the Intensive Care Unit is closed during rounds when everyone is anxiously waiting for news from a doctor they might not know but have probably learned to trust. We also learned that we can’t visit the patient during the twice-daily shift changes and that Critical Care waiting is closed once a day for cleaning. Those are the times when waiting family members go home for a shower or a change of clothing if they live close enough to get back when shift-change or cleaning is over. Otherwise, they wait somewhere else. It’s also good to know that the coffee and tea are usually free and that while the vending machines don’t always give us what we want; the staff is always willing to help us get what we need. That’s life in the waiting room.

or lose weight, researchers from the U.S. National Institutes of Health, the World Health Organization, Columbia University and Harvard School of Public Health came up with an online tool called the Body Weight Simulator at http://bwsimulator. niddk.nih.gov/. The new formula requires people to enter their age, gender, body weight, height, and activity level and goal weight. By using this formula, the researchers found that people’s bodies adapt slowly to dietary changes. The example used in the model showed that the average overweight person would need to cut 100 calories from their daily caloric intake to lose 10 pounds over 3 years with half of that weight being lost in the first year. In contrast, the traditional 3,500 calorie formula would yield a 30 pound weight loss. The 20 pound difference between what is realistic and what most people expect may be at the root of the frustration of so many. There is encouraging news. The researchers contend that while weight loss slows down over time, you will still lose weight if you stick to your plan. They also urge Americans to abandon their quick-fix mentality and realize that weight-loss requires persistence, consistency and patience.

Getting an early take on issues at the Capitol On Friday, as a group of editors, managers and the owner of Colorado Community Media met with legislators in the hallowed halls of the Capitol, it occurred to me how much change can be jammed into a short, little span. With the November election and the Democrats gaining control of both chambers, leadership in the House and Senate has taken on a decidedly different look in the General Assembly session that just started. For all intents and purposes, the same topics and concerns are likely to surface. The approach, however, I expect, will raise some eyebrows. And perhaps, some voices. Because I live and work in Republican-

landia, and travel back and forth between workplaces in Monument and Woodland Park via Ronald Reagan Highway, I often forget how evenly divided, and differently aligned, the state’s voters can be. The state’s tale is of two Colorados (though not always the same two) - rural Capitol continues on Page 9

Taking a trip to the `mall’ In my last column I mentioned going into town, checking, among other things, mail. A trip into town was like today’s trip to the mall. Have things changed all that much? On their trip into town they bought bulk groceries, animal feed, clothing, tools, parts for their vehicles and, sometimes, ate and had haircuts! Sometimes all in the same store! Now, this was not a mall, it was the town’s general store. Usually going to town wasn’t a long trip; this is what made small towns useful. Occasionally there might be a need to go into a bit larger town. Someone living near Woodland Park might need to go to Colorado Springs but only for some hard-to-get item. A hundred years ago my grandfather and his father would go into town in a wagon maybe once a week. A trip from Monument into Colorado Springs might take all day! Today we might expect to find some of these things in a big box store

and go to the store at the drop of a hat, even driving to a store many miles away, even Denver. Many of the commonly used items could be bought down at the general store but, unlike today, they rarely wanted to see a wider variety of items. If there were several general stores in a town, maybe they might each have a different selection; otherwise there were also the Sears & Roebuck or Montgomery Ward’s catalogs! Things ordered in the mail might come in on a train in two weeks! In Colorado Springs, every Saturday was shopping day! There were a

number of stores that specialized in serving those living out in the country. In fact there were many stores in the area along Colorado Avenue between Tejon and Nevada that catered to farmers and ranchers from all over who did this kind of shopping. They carried the basics, in large quantities. There was even a corral in the middle of the block where they bought and sold horses, cows and even sheep. This all ended in the 1950s when things became easier and quicker to do. The trip into town could even be done over the phone, and now on line! You can be at Walmart in minutes, but do not forget those local merchants. You can still find local businesses that can trace their history back a hundred years, and sell items not found in those big box stores.

YOUR VIEW Why newspapers fail

Dear Editor, So why are so many newspapers failing? I say it is not the competition from “digital”. It is the failure to deliver value. As a consumer (and an experienced business person), it occurs to me that if one delivers real value, then people will seek and pay for that value. Changing the medium of delivery from paper to internet should not have any effect on that value proposition. In fact, it should be a huge boost since the costs are cut dramatically. Major newspapers have largely become reprint houses for a few national wire services. There is little journalism left. A “Journalist” now is merely an ideologue who wants to “change the world” with the socialist bias that s/he learned in our government schools. Facts be damned. Real research, real investigation, real turning confusion-into-clarity…. well… that is now harder to find. I have two suggestions for the Courier. One, put all available energy into real journalism. Folks want to know what is really happening in their community. They have no other source but

LETTERS POLICY The editor welcomes signed letters on most any subject. Please limit letters to 300 words. We reserve the right to edit for legality, clarity, civility and the paper’s capacity. Only submissions with name, address and telephone number will run. MAIL, E-MAIL OR FAX TO:

gossip if the Courier does not deliver the true stories. I say we will pay for deeply researched and true stories about our community. If they are delivered on the internet instead of expensive paper - so be it. Value is value regardless of the medium. In the case of the Courier, I think the glass here is half-full. Your reporters do an above average job now of telling the story without preaching their personal politics. Pat Hill, for example, stands out in that regard. Two, transition the Courier into a true internet resource. Having a copy of the newspaper available on the web isn’t what I mean. Jump with both feet, into the internet-provided paradigms of communication and interaction. Here are just a few examples: (there are more) Make this a coffeehouse - not just a web page. Make this the very best place for us to share our opinions, new facts,

and advice with everyone in the community. But let’s do that in the context of authoritative articles - not just emotional ramblings of the social networks. Have your journalists participate in discussion here. Have the person or people who are mentioned in the article participate in the discussion. Figure out a way to encourage them to do that. I don’t know if this dialogue should be in the “comments” section or in a social network or both. The Gazette seems to like using both. The important point is the Courier’s resource becomes THE place to feel the pulse of the community and have a voice. Promote, promote, and promote the transition from paper to interactive coffee house. For example, at the end of every printed article - point the reader to the website version where s/he can interactively share thoughts about this

topic with all the other readers. Invent ways to lead people to the coffee house at every single opportunity. Strengthen the archive search capability and make the Courier site THE place to go research past events of the community. This is important. Where else can we go without a lot of effort? In summary I say, make this transition not about survival. Make it about thriving and prosperity like never before! Be clear what your value proposition is and jump on it. Give us something that social network gossip cannot provide - an authoritative, well-researched, unbiased, source of truth - presented in a medium that stimulates social interaction and participation. I hope these thoughts are useful to you. Best Regards, Curt Grina Teller County

TELLER COUNTY ARRESTS The following list of arrests is provided by area law enforcement agencies. An arrest is not an indication of guilt or innocence and there might be several people with the same name living in the county.

Teller County Sheriff ’s Office

Dec. 18 Jason Lee Harper, 30, of Florissant, while incarcerated, was served with two warrants; first warrant charging failure to comply on an original charge of obstructing a peace officer and driving under the influence, Bond was set at $50,000 and the second warrant charging failure to comply on an original charge of driving under the influence, Bond was set at $5,000.

Bond was set at $500. Dec. 19 Sierra C. Wiedman, 21, of Woodland Park was arrested on charges of domestic violence, violation of a protection order, harassment and third degree assault. Bond was set at $1,000. Richard Ryan Torres, 23, of Woodland Park was arrested on charges of domestic violence, violation of a protection order, harassment and third degree assault. No bond set, pending advisement. Torres was also arrested on two warrants; first warrant charging failure to comply on an original charge of domestic violence and criminal mischief and the second warrant charging failure to comply on an original charge of felony menacing,

third degree assault and protection order violation. Both warrants were no bond warrants. Sierra C. Wiedman, 21, of Woodland Park was arrested on two warrants; first warrant charging failure to comply on an original charge of criminal impersonation, no bond and the second warrant charging failure to comply on an original charge of felony menacing which was also a no bond warrant. Dec. 20 Gary Lyn Barton, 55, of Woodland Park was arrested on a warrant charging possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine-2 grams or less), possession of drug paraphernalia and registration violation (fictitious plate). Bond was set at $1,000. Brady Donald McAleer, 19, of Woodland Park was arrested on a warrant charging failure to comply on an original charge of felony menacing and third degree assault.

and urban, Front Range and Western Slope, and Democrats and Republican, and so on. The lines are likely to be drawn over the expected issues: • Legalization details for marijuana • Gun control measures • Death penalty • Increased school safety • Civil unions The fights will also occur in unexpected areas. We received hints of possible work areas during our meeting. House Minority Leader Mark Waller, R-El Paso County, said he plans to make higher education “an absolute priority.” Because education creates opportunity, he says, he will pursue efforts to establish meritbased scholarships and increase opportunity for technical training, and he thinks bipartisan efforts in these areas will bear fruit. We also met briefly with other Republican legislators: Sen. Mark Scheffel, R-District 4; Rep. Cheri Gerou, R-District 25; Rep. Carole Murray, R-District 45; and their various communications directors and staff. Another area of concern is Medicaid and health care, which Gerou said “affects our two largest populations, children and the elderly” and will naturally be a hot topic. Waller also wants to address how returning veterans are dealt with as it relates to mental health, courts and the justice system. From the Democrats,

Mark Ferrandino, D-Denver, who replaced Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, as House speaker, sees the focus this session being dominated by jobs and the economy. As his baby crawled around on the speaker’s conference room floor, he says he sees opportunity in helping businesses through “economic gardening.” He pointed to a jobstraining bill proffered by Rep. Pete Lee, D-District 18, and other efforts aimed at job training and reducing the skills gap. Ferrandino also cited K-12 education as being severely and seriously underfunded, and expects to tackle that, perhaps even with bipartisan efforts. One of the most difficult jobs is going to be figuring out what to do after voters’ approval of marijuana for recreational use by adults. Rep. Dan Pabon, D-District 4, says he volunteered to serve on a 24-member, bipartisan task force that

includes perspectives from health care, law enforcement and other government and non-government disciplines. And sifting though public policy decisions and recommendations regarding how to deal with issues related to potency, law enforcement, employee relations and more might be a serious test for the new industry. And then, of course, there is transportation, where a plan is in the works to free up nearly $300 million in development funds for road projects. As Rep. Max Tyler, DDistrict 23, and chair of the Transportation Committee, observed, “Everyone is the parent of a good idea.” Rob Carrigan is the editor and publisher of the Pikes Peak Courier-View and the Tri-Lakes Tribune, Colorado Community Media publications.

Panthers come up short against Wasson 65-point loss leaves sour taste in Woodland Park’s mouths By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com COLORADO SPRINGS - The Woodland Park High School boys basketball team began the new year by winning two of three games. In doing so, the Panthers improved to 5-6 overall, 1-1 in the Class 4A Metro League. The Panthers’ wins were over Vanguard (47-43 on Jan. 5) and Harrison (47-46 on Jan 12). In each instance, Woodland Park controlled the tempo of the game from the outset and played solid basketball. “We played four quarters of intense basketball against Harrison,” said first-year Woodland Park coach Joel Herman. “We have to be able to play hard and win those one-point games.” It’s those 65-point losses that are the tough ones to stomach. Such was the case on Jan. 10 when the Panthers traveled to Wasson for their league opener and wound up on the short end of 85-20 score. “They are a good team, for sure,” Woodland Park senior guard Evan lays said of Wasson. “But we let them dictate the pace. We have to take care of the ball to have success, and we didn’t do that tonight. “We have to work a lot harder and be more prepared the next time we play them. That next time will be Feb. 2

Woodland Park’s Jacob Censner goes up for a shot against Vanguard. Photo by Paul Magnuson (Groundhog Day for those who are keeping track) in Woodland Park’s more intimate gym. Wasson featured a squad that included three players over 6-feet4. But the tallest of the group 6-10 Laurenz Stalcup - was not in uniform due to an illness. As

it turned out, the Thunderbirds were just fine without him. Woodland Park’s tallest starter is 6-2 Jacob Censner. From a Woodland Park perspective, the game wasn’t pretty from the outset as the Thunderbirds built a 16-4 first quarter

lead. It went downhill from there as Woodland Park was outscored 23-0 in the second quarter and trailed 39-4 at the break. Wasson was led by the stellar play point guard DJ Hanes (game-high 19 points and nine rebounds). Four other Thunderbirds finished in double figures in points. Herman chalked up the loss as a learning experience, but he was visibly upset that Wasson coach Damion Copeland continued to play his starters more than three minutes into the fourth quarter after his team had built a 60-point lead. “He has no class,” Herman said of Copeland. “You’re up by 50 points and you want to run your starters? That’s just wrong. “Don’t’ get me wrong. They’re a great team. They know how to play basketball. But my second team can’t match up against his nine or 10 guys.” Herman elected not to play any of his starters in the fourth quarter. At one point, the Panthers featured a lineup that included freshman team members Matt Cox and Dominic Cunico. Wasson’s biggest lead was 85-18 at the 2:03 mark on a pair of free throws by Marcellus Thomas. Hanes said it is common practice for the Wasson starters to play deep into games. “We usually play three to four minutes into the fourth quarter,” said Hanes, who is a Division I football recruit. “If we lay off it cheapens what we’re trying to accomplish.” Wasson 6-5 senior power for-

ward Gabe Ehrlin scored 12 points, including his first 3-point basket of the season midway through the fourth quarter. “If we gave (Woodland Park) any sort of confidence, there’s a chance they may come back,” Ehrlin said. “We never stop playing hard. That’s the way we’re coached.” In addition to being more athletic, taller and skilled, Wasson also has the advantage of four talented senior transfers - Stalcup, 6-4 Kyler Hinton, Monico Morin and Dominic Garcia. “When you have (four) guys who transfer in that gives you an advantage over a lot of teams,” Herman said. Herman’s son, Dakota - a 6-2 sophomore swingman - led the Panthers in scoring against Wasson with six points. Herman also played well against Vanguard (eight points) and Harrison (seven). Censner led the way against Vanguard and Harrison, scoring a team-high 11 and 15 points, respectively. Lays had 13 points against Harrison. Woodland Park has league games this week on the road at Sierra and home against Widefield. “If we don’t go .500 in league I’m going to be a little disappointed,” Joel Herman said. “We’re senior strong and I think we can do some things.” Eight of Woodland Park’s 10 varsity players are seniors. The Panthers’ five victories are one just less than their combined win total from the previous seasons when they were 6-59.

Hatfield brings good cheer around the world Woodland Park senior hits New York and London By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com WOODLAND PARK - The life of a cheerleader can be quite busy. Just ask Ashley Hatfield. In a span of six weeks, the Woodland Park High School senior participated in the famous Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York and the London New Year’s Day Parade. She also kept up her cheerleading duties with the high school, as well as her elite cheer team in Colorado Springs. And she did all that while performing her functions as the student body president. “It’s all about time management,” Hatfield said with a smile. “I just don’t have a much of a social life out of school.” Hatfield has been a member of the school’s spirit squad since her freshman year. It was then that she first tried out for the London New Year’s Day Parade. She was selected, but finances kept her from making her way over “The Pond” and into the heart of Great Britain. Fast forward to last summer and that is when Hatfield’s already busy life went into warp speed. While attending a cheerleading

camp at Regis University in Denver, Hatfield garnered two awards and was invited to take cheer in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Her parents - Gary and Carrol - decided to pony up the money and send their daughter to what is arguably one of the world’s most famous parades. “We kicked off the parade,” said Hatfield, who was joined by 700 other girls from around the nation. “We rehearsed four hours a day at a large ball room at the Hilton Hotel where we stayed. The day of the parade we had to be outside of Macy’s at 6 a.m. It was cold. All we had on was our skirt and our top. “But it was so much fun. It was a long walk. We walked 50 blocks, got on a subway and booked it back to the beginning, where we met up with Santa and marched the route again.” Hatfield spent several days touring New York and hanging out at the hotel near Times Square. “I’ve been to New York before, buy I never had that type of experience,” she said. Also over the summer, Hatfield tried out for the London New Year’s Day Parade and was selected to represent another contingent of hundreds of excited high school girls from around the United States. She left for London the day after Christmas and returned Jan. 2.

“We only had one two hour rehearsal in London,” said Hatfield, who maintains a 4.1 GPA. “During the parade we stopped a lot and did a dance like 20 times. “It was actually more fun than the Macy’s parade. They weren’t as demanding over there.” As was the case in New York, Hatfield toured London and visited such sights as the Tower of London. St. Paul’s Cathedral and Windsor Castle, and took photos of Big Ben and the outside of Buckingham Palace. But there is more to Hatfield’s adventurous senior year. In September, she was awarded a fouryear Naval ROTC scholarship. She had already been accepted to the University of Colorado, so she will apply the scholarship toward college, where she plans to major in aerospace engineering. In April, Hatfield will try out for the Colorado cheer squad. “Ashley is so much more than I ever was,” said Carrol Hatfield, who works as Woodland Park High School’s suspension supervisor. “She’s an amazing person. She’s the most amazing cheerleader.” Hatfield will continue to cheer for the school, as well as take part in competitions with her Colorado Elite All-Star team. The traveling team’s next competition is Jan. 2627 in Greeley. The squad travels to Anaheim in March for nationals.

WIN The Woodland Park girls basketball team started 2013 off right with a dominating 42-21 Class 4A Metro League victory over Wasson on Jan. 10. With the game tied at 10-10 at the end of the first quarter, Woodland Park coach David Graf switched to a suffocating 1-3-1 defense and his team responded positively. Wasson was held scoreless in the second quarter and did not score again until midway through the third as the Panthers went on a 19-0 run. Seniors Elin Saxon and Hannah Erickson paced Woodland Park with 15 and 12 points, respectively.

Governor Hickenlooper calls for gun checks State of State also mentions civil unions, marijuana, economy By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews. com

Gov. John Hickenlooper gives the State of the State address Jan. 10 to senators and representatives in the House Chambers of the State Capitol.

Gov. John Hickenlooper acknowledged that “there are no easy solutions” to issues involving guns, but said a debate on how best to deal with firearm-related violence is something “our democracy demands.” The Democratic governor, addressing the General Assembly during his annual

State of the State speech Jan. 10, also proffered his opinion on one area of gun control that is certain to be one of the most passionately debated topics lawmakers will take up this legislative session. “Let me prime the pump,” Hickenlooper said. “Why not have universal background checks for all gun sales?” That suggestion certainly caught the attention of lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. “It is just completely unenforceable,” House Minority Leader Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs, said of Hickenlooper’s call for all sales of guns — including those involving person-toperson transactions — be contingent on background checks. But Democrats applauded the governor’s stance. “He made some risky points,” said Rep. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, D-Arvada. “He wasn’t afraid to jump into that.” Gun control, one of many issues that legislators are expected to take up over the next five months of the session, was just one area that Hickenlooper addressed. Economic matters, civil unions and, of course, regulating the marijuana industry were also touched on during his 40-minute remarks.

Common ground sought

Taking on the issue of gun violence is a top agenda item for this Democraticcontrolled General Assembly, especially on the heels of last year’s Aurora theater killings and the December

massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. But just talking about guns has always been a dicey political issue, as the governor acknowledged. “Some point to guns, others to a violent culture,” he said. “Still others believe that the line between community security and individual freedom must be re-drawn.” In spite of those varying viewpoints, the governor urged action. “Surely, Second Amendment advocates and gun control supporters can find common ground in support of this proposition: Let’s examine our laws and make the changes needed to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people.” Hickenlooper also sought “support for a comprehensive overhaul of our state’s mental health system,” something that he hopes can help mentally ill individuals get treatment before they commit gun crimes. Republicans said there is a bipartisan consensus on dealing with mental health issues, but that Hickenlooper’s calls for universal background checks on gun sales is problematic. Rep. Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs, called such an effort “a regulatory regime” that won’t do anything to curb gun violence. “It makes people feel good, but it doesn’t do anything to solve the problem,” he said. Gardner also said that it’s unrealistic that “drug dealers on street corners are going to abide by that regime.” But Democrats have the numbers this session, and are primed to move on guns. “It’s a tough issue for everybody,” said Democratic Rep. Max Tyler, DLakewood. “It’s a `let’s do

everything’ approach. Let’s do background checks. Let’s support our citizens’ mental health needs.”

Civil unions could pass

Tyler also praised the comments on civil unions by Hickenlooper, who said: “Some of us tried very hard, but it didn’t get done last year. This year, let’s do it. Let’s pass civil unions.” “The Legislature sometimes doesn’t get things done the first year,” Tyler said, referencing civil unions. “It’s been up and over and over again.” With Democrats in charge, civil unions finally are expected to pass this session. However, Waller “wants to make sure that Democrats are being completely transparent with that bill,” arguing that language in civil union legislation shouldn’t contradict the existing gay marriage ban in the state Constitution. Then there’s another big deal that elected officials will have to take up in the coming months. “Oh yeah, Amendment 64,” Hickenlooper quipped, referring to November’s voter-approved legalization of recreational marijuana use. A task force is working on finding ways to regulate the marijuana industry and will forward its findings to legislators by the end of February. Hickenlooper said it is important for the drug not to reach children, and he wants to expand DUI laws for those driving while impaired on marijuana. Waller, who is sponsoring a bill that deals with driving under the influence of marijuana, said he was pleased to hear the governor address that issue. With so many hot-button issues coming up this session, it may be easy to lose focus of what Colorado residents perhaps want lawmakers to pay the most attention to over the next five months. “We do know it’s the economy,” said Kraft-Tharp. “It’s jobs.” Hickenlooper praised Colorado’s “economic rebound” following “a historic recession.” The governor said he wants to “keep improving and building on the foundation we have in place,” and that he plans to put forth a budget that “builds the state’s financial solvency.”
