in the River North Neighborhood. His restaurants can be found across the city. He also has a Sushi-Rama in Lone Tree, with a new location set to open in Aurora by the end of the year. Off of Broadway in the Baker neighborhood, Joseph Kim is also working toward building a restaurant empire. The Denver native opened his first Dae Gee Korean BBQ restaurant in Westminster in 2010. Since then, he has opened two locations in Denver, and a location in Aurora. He has two other locations lined up that are under construction: a second spot in Aurora, and one in Ft. Collins.

The green fields and stoic buildings of a shuttered college campus in Denver’s Harvey Park neighborhood are on track to become part of a walkable district of homes, businesses and gathering spaces, but some neighbors want to stall redevelopment, claiming the process is marred by conflicts of interest. Members of the Loretto Heights Community Initiative (LHCI) want the city planning department to hit the brakes on a local blueprint for the area expected to shape the site’s future. The “small area plan” recently got underway with a public meeting. In a letter to City Councilman Kevin Flynn, the group of around 30 residents demanded “comprehensive cultural, historical, topographical, environmental and aesthetic assessment reports” before the process commences. In a year-old document, the neighborhood group says it wants any redevelopment to maintain views and curb traffic impacts. Still, Jim Gibson, a spokesperson for the LHCI, told Denverite the group isn’t “trying to jump to any conclusions right now” about the developer’s intentions. “We want to make sure that the process is open, fair and transparent … and that there’s no taint in the process,” he said.

Bringing the world closer to home As Denver continues to grow, so does its vibrant restaurant scene BY KAILYN LAMB KLAMB@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

On a Wednesday afternoon, the staff are getting ready to open at 12@ Madison in Congress Park. Music plays while Chef Jeff Osaka rolls out dough for a lemon dessert. Osaka opened his first 12 restaurant in the Ballpark neighborhood on Election Day in 2008. Back then, the city was still a steak and potatoes kind of town, with few options for adventurous diners, he said. The

location closed in 2014, and he opened the new one in Congress Park in 2016. Over the years the city has grown, and that growth has brought in a more diverse group of people that are looking for a wider range in their cuisine. As a Japanese American growing up in Los Angeles, Osaka was one of those people. Back in California, Osaka tried food from around the world, including the ramen dishes his family would eat at home. “People are starting to venture out,” he said. Since he opened the first 12 location, Osaka has been building a miniature empire. He is now the chef at Osaka Ramen, three Sushi-Ramas -- with two more set to open, 12@ Madison, as well as Tammen’s Fish Market in the Denver Central Market

This theater ‘changes people’s lives’ Actors with disabilities find their voice, share their passion, on stage BY KAILYN LAMB

Amber Marsh plays the ukulele after her character is committed to a mental institution during a dress rehearsal of Phamaly Theatre Company’s production of “Harvey.” Marsh is performing the role of Mrs. Tewskbury. KAILYN LAMB

Joy Carletti was in junior high school when she discovered her love for the stage. She had won the audition for the lead role in the play. But soon after rehearsals started, she found herself breaking off in the middle of lines and being unable to return to that point in the script. It felt, she said, as if she was daydreaming. The director thought she was having difficulty memorizing her lines. But, in reality, Carletti was having seizures. By the time doctors had diagnosed her with epilepsy, the director had removed her from the play. He told her: Epileptics don’t belong on stage. “Those words have stayed with me,” Carletti, 45, said. But they haven’t stopped her from following her passion for acting, which she continued to do throughout high school and college. And today, Carletti is an actor with Phamaly Theatre Company, a Denverbased nonprofit that puts on one musical every summer, as well as performances, workshops and classes. She performs the role of Veta in “Harvey”

IF YOU GO Phamaly Theatre Company will be performing “Harvey” at the Olin Hotel Apartments at 1420 Logan St., Denver, through Nov. 11. Tickets are $29. Friday and Saturday performances start at 7 p.m. Sunday performances start at 2 p.m. On Nov. 4 there will be American Sign Language interpretation as well as audio description. On Nov. 8 the company is hosting a special “pay-what-you-can” performance, which is first-come, first-serve. “Harvey,” written by Denver journalist Mary Chase in 1944, won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1945. It tells the story of a man named Elwood whose best friend is a human-sized rabbit that only he can see. His sister, Veta, tries to have him committed to an institution and is instead committed herself. For more information, or to buy tickets, visit https://www.phamaly.org/harvey. this month at the Olin Hotel Apartments in Denver. The play is about a man named Elwood whose best friend is a human-sized rabbit that only he can see. His sister, Veta, eventually pushes to have him committed to an institution and is instead committed herself. “I’ve just always wanted to do something where I was able to let my creative juices flow,” Carletti said. “When you find a passion for something, you

want to keep going with it. It was like that theater bug bit very quickly.” Phamaly was founded in 1989 by five students who graduated from the Charles Boettcher School, which served disabled children in Denver from kindergarten through high school. The founders were disappointed in a lack of theater opportunities for disabled people and founded Phamaly to give actors with disabilities a place to perform and be themselves. Members’ of the company have all nature of disabilities: physical, cognitive, intellectual, and emotional. The company does a mix of musicals, comeday and drama shows. The company has performed shows such as “Fiddler on the Roof,” “The Velveteen Rabbit,” “Our Town,” “Beauty and the Beast” and more. Since Phamaly will be celebrating 30 years in 2019, artistic director Regan Linton said the company is looking ahead to how the company can continue embracing its mission in changing the way the world sees people with disabilities. That includes making daring choices in staging productions, such as it did with its show “disLabeled,” a sketch comeday show about living with disabilities. “Really,” Linton said, “we’re just doing the same thing that any other company would do.” SEE THEATER, P7

At the time he opened the first Dae Gee, which means pig in Korean, Kim said that Psy’s song “Gangnam Style” had just become popular. With a growing fascination in K-Pop (Korean Pop) music and the culture around it, Kim said the time was right to enter into the restaurant market. But Kim has bigger plans than reaching the small population of Koreans in Colorado. He’s hoping he can use K-Pop’s popularity to bring its food into the mainstream. Eventually, he wants to bring Dae Gee to other states. “(K-Pop) put Korean culture on the map,” he said. “We’re not trying to reach a small Korean population here. There’s a huge opportunity.” Both Osaka and Kim had to start small. In Asian foods, there are some more exotic flavors and ingredients that Americans aren’t used to eating, Kim said. By taking something like barbeque which crosses both cultures, Kim said he has been able to educate people coming in to Dae Gee about some of Korea’s popular dishes such as bulgogi, marinated slices of beef or pork that have been cooked on a grill. “I think that’s helped us tremendously to bridge that gap,” he said. Osaka agreed. For restaurants it can also be expensive to bring in the more exotic menu items without knowing if locals will eat it, Osaka added, saying “there’s not enough of a native population to warrant that.”

ChoLon Restaurant Concepts Where: ChoLon is located at 1555 Blake St., Suite 101 Hours: Lunch on weekdays from 11 a.m.-2p.m., dinner is served daily starting at 5 p.m. For more information, including the company’s other concepts: https://www.cholonconcepts.com/ Jeff Osaka’s Restaurants: 12@Madison Where: 1160 Madison St. Hours: Wednesday through Saturday for dinner from 4-10 p.m., Sunday from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. for brunch and 4-9 p.m. for dinner. For more information: https:// www.12atmadison.com/ As Denver has grown, so has the restaurant scene. Jeff Osaka, who runs several ramen and sushi restaurants throughout the state, said that when he first moved here in the mid-2000s, the city was still a “steak and potatoes” place. COURTESY OF OSAKA RAMEN But Colorado’s palate is changing. People have become more interested in international cuisines. This is a benefit for both diners and the chefs, Osaka said. Chefs are beginning to push the boundaries when it comes to food. Even classics like French food are beginning to see a more modern resurgence. ChoLon has been serv-

ing Chinese-style soup dumplings with a French onion-style soup filling and gruyere cheese. The restaurant’s owner, ChoLon Restaurant Group is also opening a modern French restaurant next door to ChoLon on the 16th Street Mall. Fusion foods are becoming more common, Osaka said. Chefs that started out making one food are starting to pair it with another. “A lot of chefs are diversifying their portfolio,” he said of the trend. Location can also be a factor. Osaka opened Osaka Ramen in the River North neighborhood in Denver in 2015. Around that time, the neighborhood was beginning to become more popular. The neighborhood has restaurants from around the world, with few doing the same types of food, Osaka said. Even having an international airport can change the way people eat. With direct flights to and from places around the globe, people have many opportunities to expand their palate, Osaka said. “It really brings the world a lot closer.”

Free Denver workshops for parents, caregivers, infant-care professionals BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It’s not common knowledge for people to know that 3,600 babies die every year because of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) or from a sleep-related infant death, said Alison Jacobson, CEO of First Candle, a national nonprofit dedicated to the education, advocacy and research of SIDS. “No one wants to talk about it,” Jacobson said. “But until we have those conversations, nothing will change. We have to talk about it.” To help, a partnership between First Candle and The Boppy Company — the Golden-based manufacturer of Boppy infant products — is bringing a special training class to the Denver area for the first time. The Straight Talk for Infant Safe Sleep classes will provide attendees an opportunity to learn about the Safe Sleep Guidelines developed by The American Academy of Pediatrics. They are trainings, Jacobson said, but “it’s really a conversation.” Attendees will be empowered with the right information and skills to problem-solve any obstacle or challenge they may face with following the Safe Sleep Guidelines, Jacobson added. Two Straight Talk for Infant Safe Sleep classes will be offered in Denver — one for parents and caregivers and another for healthcare professionals. Both classes take place at the mama ‘hood, which is a place for new-and-expecting mothers that offers a variety of classes and a curated retail boutique. The parent/caregiver class will entail an explanation of the top five of the approximate 18 Safe Sleep Guidelines, and the reasons behind these recommendations. The class will also include a group conversation to brainstorm what challenges parents face with meeting Safe Sleep Guidelines and how to overcome the challenges. The group will also share past successes and create

To learn more about the mama ‘hood, 2902 Zuni St. in Denver, visit www.themamahood.com. a network of support. This is education and training that’s difficult to find anywhere else, Jacobson said. And it needs to begin early, she added — even as early as when you start setting up the nursery, or even as soon as you learn you’re pregnant. The healthcare professionals’ class consists of a thorough overview of the Safe Sleep Guidelines and the reasoning behind each one. This class will also include group discussions, but also role play. Attendees will learn how to create a two-way conversation with parents and gain knowledge on how they can help parents create a plan to implement safe sleep and breastfeeding in each household that considers each family’s beliefs, values and living and working situations. Considering the average size of each class is 35-to-40 attendees, Jacobson said, following the training, each of those participants will have the knowledge and ability to reach at least twice that many people in their community. It is important to spread the word about this infant-care information and education, said Mimi Wogtech, marketing manager for The Boppy Company. The Boppy Company has had a long-time partnership with First Candle and launched its The Momkind Project — a corporate social responsibility program with a mission of educating, empowering and supporting families in their new parent journey — in March 2018, Wogtech said. “There’s so much education for people to learn on their new parent journey, and safe sleep practices for infants is vital to healthy, growing families,” she said. “This is information that can save lives.”

IF YOU GO Parent/caregiver class: 2-3:30 p.m. Nov. 11 at the mama ‘hood, 2902 Zuni St., in Denver. This class is open to any expecting or new parent, family member or caregiver. The class is free, but attendees are asked to provide a $5 donation to benefit the scholarship program at mama ‘hood. Snacks and refreshments will be available for purchase. The first 25 people to register for the class will receive a Boppy goodie bag. To register for this class, visit https://goo.gl/Wpe5wr.

Healthcare professionals’ class: 10 a.m. to noon Nov. 12 at the mama ‘hood, 2902 Zuni St., in Denver. This class is open to any professional in infant care including, but not limited to, doulas, midwives, lactation consultants and daycare providers. The class is free, and a free lunch will be provided following the class. To register for this class, visit https://goo.gl/ v2o9Dn.

One reason Carletti enjoys theater is because of the community feel that comes from putting together a show. With Phamaly, that feeling is amplified because of some of the barriers she and other performers face, she said. But, on stage, the boundaries the Phamaly actors face in society become something that helps push their artistry. “You want to accommodate everybody’s needs,” Carletti said. But “it’s not about making those allowances — it’s about `Let’s see how we can push this further.’ ” For Carletti, watching a story unfold on stage is an opportunity, and she loves the “a-ha” moment when it all comes together. Linton oversees the bigger picture, making sure all performers have a place to perform. But more than anything, she wants Phamaly to be a place where actors and actresses can take pride in themselves. “It’s necessary for every human being to have a place where they can have a voice and feel valued,” she said. “It changes people’s lives.”

CALM AFTER THE STORM

C ol

Linton, 37, a Denver native who graduated from East High School, understands her actors’ passion well. Acting, she said, was how she found herself again after a car accident in 2002 that left her paralyzed. Three years later, she was back on stage. “It was a really rough period after my injury feeling like everything had changed,” Linton said. “It was pretty terrifying at first, to be honest. This (was) my coming out as a person with a disability.” Carletti recounts how at one point, before finding medication that worked, she was having 30 to 50 seizures a day. Sometimes, the medication would affect her memory. When she couldn’t work in scripted plays, she relied on improvisation shows. She found Phamaly last year when she performed in the company’s production of “Annie.”

Zoning in spotlight A more urban Loretto Heights will require different zoning rules. And that’s one reason for a small area plan — without it, no vision for the campus exists beyond the developer’s wants and what current zoning allows. “The planning process, particularly for something like this, is us wanting to get ahead of something that may happen,” said Alexandra Foster, a spokesperson for CPD. “It’s something that we want, and the community clearly wants this opportunity to shape what the area will be.” Without a plan, the developer could proceed as he saw fit (within the constraints of current land use rules). “Postponing the small area plan would be an unmitigated disaster for the future of this campus,” Flynn said. “It will actually permit what others are concerned about the most — proceeding with the redevelopment of the campus without the input of the community.” That being said, Flynn said in a letter to residents that he’s committed to preserving the Loretto Academy chapel and cemetery and the views of Loretto Academy from Federal Boulevard. He’s also against letting through traffic from Federal into Dartmouth Heights and Harvey Park neighborhoods. “I have taken only four key positions on redevelopment of the campus, and the group raising these concerns has adopted them and backed me on all four,” Flynn said. “I will support the community consensus, whatever it is, that results from this plan.” Denverite is an online local news source for everything you need to know about Denver in 5 minutes.

Gibson claims campaign donations and an internship have tainted things. The group asked Flynn, whose district covers the campus, to return $3,000 in donations from campus owner Andrew Klein, his company Westside Property Investment and developer ACM High Point. Gibson and company called out a fourth donation worth $1,000 but Denverite could not confirm the donor’s role. Flynn called the donations a “red herring” in an interview. “It’s not uncommon for campaign contributors to be involved in decisions you’re a part of.” He won’t return the funds, citing several instances when he’s sided against donors with his vote. He voted against allowing the Grandoozy music festival, for example, despite promoter contributions to his campaign, Flynn said. Same with a no vote to increase drainage fees for a food project tied to I-70. “What I’m saying is, I have no hesitation to vote against campaign contributor when it’s in the best community interest of District 2,” Flynn said. Neighbors also made claims against Jason Morrison, the Denver Community Planning and Development planner heading the small area plan. They demanded he recuse himself because of ties to the Pachner Company, a consulting firm that now works with Westside. Morrison worked for Pachner five years ago — as an intern — before Pachner worked with Westside, according to CPD. Residents did not file an official complaint, but Denver Board of Ethics executive director Michael Henry sees no conflict of interest. “From the circumstances that the planner explained to me, there’s nothing that will violate the Denver code of ethics, particularly because

it was such a long time ago,” Henry said. “And in addition, at least listening to the planner’s side of the story, he never worked for this particular owner in any way, shape or form for this particular project. So there’s really nothing that causes me any unofficial heartburn.”

Amazon 4-Star store opens at Park Meadows Location features products rated four stars or higher, trending products in the area BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Shoppers can go from browsing the latest technology to cookware to the hottest books in one brief stroll around the Amazon 4-Star outlet store, the newest attraction at Park Meadows mall in Lone Tree. Amazon 4-Star opened Nov. 1 and is an assortment of products found on Amazon.com rated at four stars or better. Real customer reviews and average online ratings, up to five stars, accompany product price tags. Some displays are advertised as “Trending in Denver,” marking the placement of products with high online popularity from Denver-area shoppers. Other displays are labeled “Frequently Bought Together” and “Most Wished-For,” popular categories when shopping on Amazon. “It’s all about product discovery at a place like this,” said Cameron Janes, vice president of Amazon 4-Star. “These products are on Amazon. com, but you’re not often exposed to them because you’re searching for your specific thing.

Amazon 4-Star is just the second

of its kind in the United States. The first Amazon 4-Star opened in New York in September. The space at Park Meadows was initially reserved for an Amazon Books store, another brickand-mortar Amazon shop, of which there are 17 in the country, focusing mostly on books and tablets. SEE AMAZON, P11

VOICES Art’s reward is the gift of other people

M

att and I won a prize. You still have a chance to see our prize winner at the Lone Tree Arts Center. We collaborated on an art project for a juried exhibition that will be up until Nov. 26. Because of the prize, we will be included in the exhibition that follows as well. I have been winding down my art career for the past two years by collaborating with other artists, two of my (deceased) mentors, and former students. The career began at a kitchen table in Pennsylvania a hundred years ago, and got me as far as UCLA, and three teaching positions. It has also provided me with homes, cars, turtlenecks and toothbrushes. Everything, really. And it led me to Matt Hendrick. I might have read the article about him even if I weren’t an artist, but when I found out that he paints with a brush in his mouth, I knew I wanted to communicate with him, to meet him, and

until he had a chance to see the ribbon for himself. Matt’s not crazy about crowds, and there was a possibility he wouldn’t attend, but the front doors opened, and I watched a friend of his push his wheelchair inside. I introduced him to Jennifer, and then we led him back to our painting, which I had completed in my studio — and he had not seen. I watched his face. He looked happy and pleased and proud. I looked at Jennifer and we both might have teared up a little. During Parent Weekend in 1991 at the Rochester Institute of Technology where he was pursuing photography, Matt was airlifted by helicopter from the crashed car his mother had been driving. He returned to Colorado (he graduated from Rangeview High School in 1989), paralyzed from the neck down. He spent six months at Swedish

Medical Center and Craig Hospital. At first he tried to reconnect with photography, but maybe that was too easy. You can click a camera with almost anything. Why not try to mix oil paint with a palette stick in your mouth? Why not try to create distinctive portraits with a paintbrush in your mouth? And that’s what he has been doing. Perhaps the most well-known artist with limited mobility, Chuck Close, also paints portraits. Close had a “catastrophic spinal artery collapse” that left him partially paralyzed, but he is able to work with his hands, and continues to paint large-scale portraits that are placed in museums and private collections worldwide. This ride Matt and I are on is one more immeasurable gift that art has given to me. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.

Cooking is the currency of love

eople who love to eat are always the best people.” Julia Child wrote that in a letter to her friend, Avis DeVoto, in early 1953. Julia is known around the world for her love of food — especially butter — and many people use her quotes about not liking diets, cakes or quotes on how she found cooking to show their own love of food. But this particular quote is my favorite because it also combines Julia’s great love for people. In the various memoirs written about her life, Julia is constantly prepping for dinner parties. She loved to cook for other people, particularly for her husband Paul Child. Alex Prud’homme, the Childs’ greatnephew, wrote in “The French Chef in America: Julia Child’s Second Act” that people were always knocking at the Childs’ door of their Boston home for dinner. I have been so lucky in my own friendships. In my last few years of college at MSU Denver I met my boyfriend, Will,

to make him an offer. We communicated, we met, and we collaborated. Even though it was created apart in our own studios, it became a harmonic duet. We worked sepaQUIET rately on small, wood DESPERATION panels. He went first, and an assistant delivered his panels to me. I added mine, in some degree of similarity, glued them side by side, and gave them a title. “Never Known” is on a back wall at the center, with a Craig Marshall first-prize ribbon beneath it the size of Smith an apron. The center’s events director, Allissa Dailey, arranged a wonderful reception for the exhibit. Jennifer and I arrived before Matt did, and we kept the news of the prize to ourselves

and eventually several of his friends. In 2013, Will and I joined in on our friends’ family dinner tradition. One of us would host and everyone would bring a dish. On Sunday nights we’d catch up on life over plates of homemade noodles, tikka masala, guacamole, whatever the theme was for that day. Food tastes better when it’s shared with friends. To me, cheesy as it sounds, cooking is the currency of love. Over the years, friends have moved away, new friends have joined and, although we don’t Kailyn Lamb get together to cook every week any more, we still make sure to meet up every once in a while over a homemade meal. My love of cooking for people goes back to childhood family holidays. We’d pack up the car and head to my grandparents’ house in Westminster. Food would sit on the kitchen coun-

The holidays were when my family would get together and laugh over our meal, enjoy each other’s company and, depending on the day, cheer on the Broncos or the Avalanche. As an adult, I now bring my own dish to the table at family meals. I love planning for my family’s various events — a raspberry pie for the whole family because it’s my grandpa’s favorite, potatoes at my dad’s because he doesn’t like vegetables, adventurous international foods with my mom, and so on.

cooking, there are few people with whom I would rather share a kitchen. Sharing a meal brings warmth to friendships. For me, it starts with a good cookbook: What should I make? What will people like best? Over the years I have collected cookbooks with cuisine from around the world, including “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” by Julia, with her co-authors and friends, Louisette Bertholle and Simone Beck. My favorite pages are usually earmarked or stained with flour and oil. The recipes don’t have to be complicated. The presentation doesn’t need to be on par with the finest restaurants in the world. Julia spent the later years of her life making cooking accessible to everyone, assuring viewers of “The French Chef ” that it was OK to break a few eggs in the kitchen.

Health law sign-ups begin with stable premiums, more options ‘Obamacare’ proves resilient nearly two years into Trump presidency BY RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Affordable Care Act’s sixth sign-up season opened Nov. 1 amid stabilizing premiums and more choice for consumers. Nationally, average premiums are going up only by low single-digit percentages for 2019. In some states, and for some types of plans, premiums will decline. Fewer areas will see increases. Insurers also are expanding their participation. Health care ranked among voters’ top concerns heading into the midterm elections. A year ago, it wasn’t even clear if former President Barack Obama’s signature program would survive repeated efforts by President Donald Trump and Republicans to repeal it. There have been changes. It might be more difficult finding help in enrolling, after the Trump administration sharply scaled back funding for sign-up counselors known as “navigators.” Even so, independent community groups still guide consumers through the paperwork. And in a change that takes effect Jan. 1, those who decide to opt out of health insurance won’t be penalized come tax time. Consumers have until Dec. 15 to sign up through HealthCare.gov. Mike Hewitt plans to re-enroll. “God bless Obamacare,” said the

self-employed remodeling contractor from Austin, Texas. The first year he signed up under the ACA, Hewitt fell off a roof he was working on, shattering his left heel and tearing an arm muscle. “It allowed me to get good health insurance to fix my body,” said Hewitt, who’s in his 50s. He believes the coverage has been worth the $290 he pays monthly in premiums. “When you have it, it keeps you proactive on taking care of yourself,” said Hewitt. About 10 million people have private policies through HealthCare. gov and state-run insurance markets, with roughly 9 in 10 getting taxpayer-financed help to pay their premiums. An estimated 12 million more are covered through the ACA’s Medicaid expansion, aimed at lowincome adults. Income-based tax credits to help pay premiums remain available. The HealthCare.gov website and call center will be up and running. Coverage is available even if you don’t qualify for financial help, but many cannot afford to pay full freight and self-pay customers have left the market in droves. The 2019 sign-up season begins just days before the Nov. 6 midterm elections, when voters were set to determine control of Congress. Democrats have made preserving the ACA’s protections for preexisting medical conditions a major issue. Trump and Republicans have been hitting hard against Sen. Bernie Sanders’ “Medicare for All” plan, saying Democrats are out to destroy Medicare. Republicans haven’t backed off their vow to repeal

networks, and to gain approval from state regulators. It’s unclear how widely available they’ll be. A new Kaiser Foundation study estimates that if not for the changes by Trump and Congress, premiums would have been substantially lower next year. Standard “silver” plans will cost about 16 percent more than they would have otherwise, the analysis found. But no one is predicting “Obamacare” will collapse, as Trump repeatedly did last year. “It will shrink maybe a little bit, but it doesn’t fall off a cliff,” said Standard & Poor’s analyst Deep Banerjee. About 11.8 million people signed up during last year’s open enrollment, only about 3 percent fewer than the final season under Obama. It was a surprising result, and experts saw it as evidence of the program’s value to consumers. Although federal funding for signup season has been slashed, independent groups are trying to get the message out. At Foundation Communities, an Austin nonprofit that serves low-income workers, calls and emails have already been going out to clients with reminders about open enrollment. Kori Hattemer, director of financial programs, said the goal is to help enroll 5,000 people. The center had the same target for this year and exceeded it. “There’s a lot of confusion around whether the Affordable Care Act still exists,” said Hattemer. “We’re making sure people know financial help is available. There’s just lots of mixed messages out there.”

According to Amazon officials, the company changed its mind and brought a 4-Star instead. Evelyn Scott, a local librarian and Park Meadows shopper, was surprised to see an Amazon 4-Star, but said she thinks the store will be useful when trying to find gifts for her granddaughter. Scott said she is an Amazon Prime member and will still likely shop online primarily. Scott said she thinks the store would be helpful to test out newer products. “I think it’s interesting that we’re heading so much toward technology and things online, but then we come right back to people still want to touch and see it,” Scott said. The store also features Amazon’s h flagship products like the Kindle e-book reader, Kindle Fire tablet and Ring, an easy-to-use front door . security camera. Amazon Prime members are offered a discount price, which matches the product’s online price. Products in the store are constantly changing, Janes said, reflecting changes in local trends or seasonal products. Janes added that a prod-

“Obamacare.” After repeal failed last year, the Trump administration and GOP-led Congress continued to chip away, making changes that could lead to fewer people enrolling. If younger, healthier people stay out of the market, it will increase taxpayers’ cost of covering those who remain. Among the major changes:  Repeal of the unpopular requirement that Americans get health insurance or risk fines, gone as of Jan. 1. Experts agree that will reduce enrollment, but differ by how much. Some argue that the so-called “individual mandate” was never very effective, since the Obama administration issued numerous exemptions, and the Trump administration added more. “This is not the death blow for the market that was thought,” said Chris Sloan of the consulting firm Avalere Health.  Greater availability of shortterm health plans in most states. The Trump administration is allowing such plans to cover up to 364 days, and renewals up to 36 months. Premiums are much lower than for ACA plans, but pre-existing conditions are excluded and plans don’t have to cover basics like prescription drugs. “It’s uncertain how popular these cheaper and more bare-bones plans will be among the healthy people who will qualify for them,” said Larry Levitt of the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation.  Expansion of “association health plans” for small businesses and sole proprietors. These plans, which can be sold across state lines, are broadly similar to employer insurance. But it takes time to set up provider

People age 20 to 34 made up about 23 percent of that metro area in 2017, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. That metro area also had the 10thhighest percentage of college graduates among people age 25 to 34 in large metro areas nationwide, according to a February report by the Brookings Institution based on 2015 numbers. For out-of-state residents moving to the metro area, meeting people can be difficult, particularly if they have jobs where they work remotely in their apartments, said Dr. Mary Ann Watson, a clinical psychologist and professor emerita at Metropolitan State University of Denver. And when young people do meet, housing can become a challenge, Bacon said. “Younger people are living with their parents more,” Bacon said.

or the entire second half of the 20th century and beyond, most Americans were presented with one perspective on the island nation of Cuba. Thanks to governmental changes in both nations, many are gaining a better understanding of the nation than ever before. That all important cultural and environmental exploration can begin at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science’s, 2001 Colorado Blvd., new exhibition, “¡CUBA!” This family-friendly exhibition — presented in English and Spanish — is free with general admission entry. “The exhibits covers many aspects of Cuba, both as a natural ecosystem and as a culture,” said Hugo Valdez, muCOMING seum programs ATTRACTIONS specialist at the museum. “It is important we provided new perspectives on the island. We want people to know how vibrant the culture is there.” The island nation is actually Clarke Reader an archipelago of more than 4,000 islands and keys, and home to 11 million people. Cuba is also one of the region’s most ecologically diverse countries, with the Caribbean’s healthiest coral reefs, most significant wetlands and largest rainforest. The main feature of the exhibition is a replica plaza, which gives attendees the chance to learn more about day-to-day life in a Cuban town. By wandering through the plaza, visitors can learn about everything from dominoes, foods and coffee and music that can be heard on a local radio station. There’s also information on the nation’s 16 baseball teams and the vintage cars that make Cuban streets such a colorful and nostalgic means of travel. On the more natural side, visitors can explore re-creations of the island’s habitats, with lifelike models representing its distinctive wildlife, both modern and extinct, and live lizards. About 50 percent of Cuba’s plants and 32 percent of its vertebrate animals are endemic, found only on the island.

long with traffic and housing costs, the population boom in the Denver metro area can affect a less obvious part of residents’ lives: navigating the dating world. “While that doesn’t make us different from New York or San Francisco, it is a change here,” said Dr. Tracy Bacon, a sociology professor at Arapahoe Community College in Littleton. “It makes dating a lot harder because dating is expensive.” From deciding when to move a relationship under one roof to the types of people in the dating pool, Bacon said, a changing population can make the nerve-wracking process even more complex. Added obstacles among young people can affect looking for marriage, too. “Most people do still get married eventually, but I feel like with millennials, the difficulty with finding financial stability, finishing education and having all these student loans can make a long-term marriage commitment seem kind of far off,” Bacon said.

DATING

FINDING OTHERS WITH SIMILAR INTERESTS

FROM PAGE 12

That’s not a deal-breaker, but “it’s a little harder to date if you’re living at home as an adult. You might see people moving in together before they want to because it saves money — more of a financial decision than a good relationship decision.”

Online and face to face Despite the popularity of dating apps like Tinder, many people in their 20s often continue their “college kind of dating experiences” — namely, in bars, Watson said. “I’m not sure that’s a very good setting,” Watson said. “In a bar with 200 people there, there might be one or two people more compatible with you.” Watson contrasted that with volunteering or attending a meetup, a group activity organized online. Meetup.com has options throughout the metro area — from Castle Rock up to Thornton and in between. People age 30 and up commonly take part in meetups, centering around interests like dogs, cooking, tennis and “all sorts of opportunities,” Watson said. “I find that’s usually much more helpful. Particularly, volunteer opportunities are a good way to meet people.” Craig Barber, a Littleton-area resident who runs meetups on the 5280 Singles, 5280 Singles Over 40 and 5280 Singles Adventures groups, said young singles should stop relying so much on technologies.

The Denver metro area offers many ways to meet people outside of looking through profiles on an app. Here are some events and meetups — group activities organized online — across local cities and towns. For the meetups, please note there are several other options per area — these are some examples. • Step it Up Broomfield/ Thornton — A group focused on healthy living: meetup.com/step-it-upbroomfield/ • Westminster Art and Community — Focused on “creativity and connection”: meetup.com/ Westminster-art/

• Wheat Ridge Nerdatorium Board Game Group: meetup.com/WheatRidge-Board-Game-Meetup-Nerds/ • Lakewood and Denver West Euchre and Pub Trivia — For the card game and pub trivia: meetup.com/DenverWest-Euchre-and-Trivia/ • Littleton Comedy Meetup — Focused on scene work and improvisation: meetup. com/Littleton-ComedyMeetup/ • Highlands Ranch Cycling Club: meetup.com/Highlands-Ranch-Cycling-Club/ • Parker Dungeons & Dragons Meetup — For the role-

“Social media isn’t even social,” said Barber, whose meetup groups boast more than 10,000 members combined. “Social is talking.” But online dating can have its upsides, and it’s much less stigmatized than it was years ago, Bacon said. “When online dating came out, people were like, ‘Oh, what’s wrong with you?’” Bacon said. But “in some ways, it makes it easier — you can weed people out. When you’re in a city with so many people, it’s much more efficient.”

playing game: meetup. com/Parker-DungeonsDragons-Meetup/ • Castle Rock Vegans: meetup.com/Castle-RockVegans/ • Parker-Franktown-Elizabeth Paper Crafting Club: meetup.com/Parker-Franktown-Elizabeth-PaperCrafting-Club/ • Denver Singles Events and Adventures Club — For activities like fireworks cruises, skydiving, paintball and more: eventsandadventures.com/Denver • SpeedDenver Dating — For speed dating: speeddenverdating.com

Denver because of a perceived gender imbalance, dates back years and has caught on in local media — and the statistics appear to back it up in the dating world. In the metro area — the broad Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, 10-county definition — males outnumber females roughly 224,000 to 183,000 among ages 20 to 34 for people who have never married, according to 2017 Census Bureau data. That gap remains wide all the way up through ages 55 to 59, according to the data. For LGBTQ singles, gay bars sit in central Denver — people in places like Aurora, Highlands Ranch and the

outskirts of the metro area are “kind of restricted to coming into town,” Watson said. Other options include LGBTQ choruses and even LGBTQ issue-based groups, given the current political climate, Watson said. Many meetups are geared toward LGBTQ residents in the area. For older singles in their 60s and 70s, existing friends can be a road to new connections, Watson said. “Let them know you’re open to meeting new people or dating new people,” Watson said. Meetup groups are successful with older singles, too, said Watson, who encouraged them to rekindle activities and interests they haven’t taken up since earlier in life. Celeste Tarantola, an Arvada resident who said she’s middle-aged, was looking to get out and interact with people after a relationship ended. She doesn’t believe in dating sites, she said, but meetups “got me out of my apartment.” She sat at one such event Oct. 26, watching people learn steps to a country-style dance at Stampede, a country bar and club on the west edge of Aurora. Barber, who organized the event and sat next to Tarantola, said in an area with such an influx of outsiders, people will encounter different viewpoints, and it’s important to listen and be caring. But in general, his dating advice boiled down to having fun. “Go out and do the things you like,” Barber said. “Live life, because life is short. That way, at least you’ll have something in common.”
