Project moving forward

Construction on multi-use complex should start next year By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com

A Christmas tree of memories Beginning in 1947, Centennial woman, 90, has collected more than 550 ornaments By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Annette Matthews paces around the artificial Christmas tree in her living room. A vintage train sits beneath it, motionless. But the tree is full of life, meticulously decorated with more than 550 ornaments. And every one has a story.

“I got this one after the war,” she says, pointing to the clear bulb she bought in 1947 at the end of World War II. “It’s plastic because you weren’t allowed to use glass back then.” Like all the others, the ornament isn’t just a decoration — it’s a memory. Matthews, 90, was born and raised in Denver. She was first inspired to collect ornaments in fourth grade. She recalls a home just down the street from her elementary school that had a large, decorative Christmas tree in its sunroom, so the students could see it. “I decided then,” Matthews says, “that’s the kind of tree I wanted.”

Her collection started in 1947 when she was in her 20s. She married the same year, but her late husband rarely participated in the tree decorating. It was her project, and she liked it that way. “I didn’t want his help,” says Matthews. “He wouldn’t have spent the time that I did.” Her collection grew over the years. She acquired an ornament every time she traveled, received some as gifts and bought some for herself,

Construction is expected to start early next year on a 300-unit apartment complex with 2,000 square feet of retail space on East Mineral Avenue, said Allison Wittern, Centennial’s public relations manager. The complex, comprised of six levels with retail on the ground floor, is part of the Opus Group 42-acre development known as Jones District that also will include office and hotel space. “It will most likely have a coffee shop or café of some sort that will serve the community as well as the residents of the project,” said Peter Coakley, senior vice president and general manager of Opus Development Company. The development is marked by a Jones District sign, north of Ikea off Interstate 25, erected about 60 days ago, said Neil Marciniak, the city’s economic development manager. Opus has submitted a final plan to the city. Once the city issues a building permit, construction can begin, Marciniak said. The long-term project is expected to take 10 to 15 years to complete. “Our hope is that the economy will continue to remain strong,” Coakley said, “and the demand will continue to be there.”

Snowsports complex would be second in country

By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com A year-round snow sports facility — only the second of its kind in the United States — slid one step closer to becoming a reality in Castle Rock when the Town Council entered into a memorandum of understanding with P3 Advisors LLC, the company interested in developing the synthetic-snow park tentatively named SnowSports365 at Philip S. Miller Park. “I am 100 percent behind this project,” Castle Rock Mayor Paul Donahue said. “I think we have a lot of things going on here in Castle Rock and families are looking for more.” No contractual rights or obligations

have been established yet, but now that council voted unanimously Dec. 1 to continue with the project, both parties can move toward a potential development agreement. The project cost is estimated at $28 million, all of which will be paid for by the developer. However, P3 requested a $2.7 million loan with 2.5 percent interest from the town of Castle Rock to help pay for improvements that will help benefit the entire park, including additional parking lots, utility extensions and additional lighting. The loan was approved as part of the Dec. 1 agreement. SnowSports 365 would be built on 9.5 acres at the Philip S. Miller Park, which is Snow continues on Page 9

ARAPHOE COUNTY CHRISTMAS

Watch out for sheriff ’s elves

Deputies collecting toys for little ones Staff report

Arapahoe County sheriff’s deputies will be pulling double shifts as elves this holiday season to brighten the spirits of children who might otherwise not enjoy Christmas. The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office is participating in two toy drives, which means deputies need help getting double the new, unwrapped gifts for little ones. First up is the Cops Fighting Cancer’s 13th Annual Long Blue Line Toy Drive, benefiting children at Children’s Hospital. On Dec. 17, deputies will join more than 250 other law enforcement officers to take gifts to children who cannot be home for the holidays. More information is available at www. copsfightingcancer.org. Next up is Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office FOP Lodge 31 Holiday Toy Drive on Dec. 19.

‘On a daily basis, deputies come across a lot of heartbreaking family situations. Many of the situations leave children sad and confused. Giving a child a reason to smile during the holidays may be the only thing we have left to offer.’ Sheriff’s ofﬁce news release “On a daily basis, deputies come across a lot of heartbreaking family situations,” reads a sheriff’s office news release. “Many of the situations leave children sad and confused. Giving a child a reason to smile during the holidays may be the only thing we have left to offer.” Deputies will wrap the gifts and deliver them on Dec. 19. For those who would like to donate, there are boxes in the sheriff’s office lobby at 13101 E.

Broncos Parkway. All toys should be new and unwrapped. Toys for the Long Blue Line Toy Drive should be donated by Dec. 15. Toys for the FOP Holiday Toy Drive will be accepted through Dec. 17. Contact Deputy Brian McKnight at 720-874-3750 or bmcknight@arapahoegov.com with questions or for information about how to donate cash or gift cards.

Two walk away from plane crash Staff report A small plane crashed just before 8 p.m. Nov. 30 near Upland Drive and Grasslands Drive, south of Centennial Airport. When emergency crews arrived, the two people aboard had already

gotten out of the plane. They were checked out by paramedics, but did not need treatment. There was no fire, a spokeswoman for South Metro Fire Rescue said. A report on the Federal Aviation Administration’s website says the aircraft “force landed in a field and

flipped over.” Temperatures were low, but it’s unknown if weather was a factor in the crash. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the cause.

Project Continued from Page 1

The property has a regulating plan, which prescribes what types of properties can be built and how much of each, said Coakley. Altogether, the office, multifamily, hotel and retail space will total 1.866 million square feet. The nearby Dry Creek light rail station has plans for a kiss-and-ride, or drop-off area, and an additional south entrance and exit, which doesn’t currently exist. It will open up access from the station to the Ikea area, said Coakley. There are also foreseeable plans for two office buildings on the land formerly owned by the Larrick family, Coakley added. The Jones District is expected to be a prosperous addition to Centennial with easy access from Dry Creek and County Line roads and unobstructed views of the west. “It’s one of the best underdeveloped sites in all of Denver,” Coakley said. “It’s in the heart of Denver’s southeast suburban submarket — one of the strongest economic areas in Colorado.”

Candace Moon steps in as husband steps out Will develop leadership style to reﬂect community needs By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com District 1 City Council member Vorry Moon said farewell at his last district meeting on Nov. 30, as his time on council will soon be ending due to term limits. But he will still be involved — his successor is his wife, Candace Moon. “She’s more diplomatic,” Vorry said. “And with everything, even our kids, we have our own strengths.”

Candace ran for city council because she wants to see Centennial grow and diversify, she said. And in the Nov. 3 elections, she received 43 percent of the vote in a three-way race. She will be sworn in for her new post as District 1 council member on Jan. 4. She plans on developMoon ing her leadership style based on the needs of the community. She considers herself a listener and a doer, and said she isn’t following the legacy of her husband. “He’s still here,” she added. “And he

will continue to be involved in the city in whatever way he wants.” Candace’s District 1 counterpart will be Councilmember Kathy Turley, who’s worked with Vorry for the past three years. Turley’s confident the new duo will make a strong team, she said. “Vorry’s been my mentor and I’ll miss him terribly,” Turley added. “But Candace is coming in with a lot of knowledge — further along than most new council members.” Candace has been married to Vorry for 30 years. They have seven children and 11 grandchildren. Vorry was first elected as District 1 council member in 2003. He’s served on and off for over 10 years.

“It’s time,” Vorry said. “It’s the end of my four-year term and I’ve been on council long enough.” Vorry describes himself as a personable guy who values communication. He compares his leadership style with his military experience — he rarely gave orders. “I gave three or four direct orders,” Vorry said. “Instead, I learned the art of working with people.” Even though his term ended, he will be a part of his wife’s future endeavors on city council. “She will accomplish just as much as I did,” he said. “But she won’t do it the same way.”

Annette Matthews, 90, reminisces about a lighthouse she traveled to in North Carolina. “This here is the same one,” she says.

Every year, Annette Matthews’ family sets up the artiﬁcial tree and she spends days decorating it — all on her own. “There’re about 550 to 600 ornaments this year,” she says. Photos by Alex DeWind

often from Hallmark. She even started making her own by gluing festive stones onto satin bulbs. “She ties a homemade ornament on every present,” her grandson David Matthews, 36, says. “So we have a ton.” Every year, a relative puts up the tree in Matthews’ Centennial home. She unpacks each ornament from its original box and

makes a list of her collection. And then spends days decorating her tree. Some ornaments represent family, like the small white bulb with her greatgrandson’s tiny blue footprint. Some represent places, like the Christmas tree that her grandson brought her from Germany. Some are connected with experiences, like the replica of a lighthouse she visited in North Carolina. And some are for pure enjoyment, like the Hallmark teddy bears. Matthews will take her tree down midJanuary. The process is a lot of hard work, but to her, it’s worth it. “This,” she says, “is Christmas.”

Matthews started collecting ornaments in 1947. Her tree represents four generations of her family.

When asked which ornament is her favorite, she carefully scans the tree. “They’re all my favorite,” she says.

New retail, dining development on the table for Lone Tree

The Yard would bring urban design to suburbs

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com The developers behind the Promenade at Castle Rock want to bring a new retail and dining development with an urban twist to Lone Tree. Called The Yard, it would be an outdoor, open-air expanse development located southwest of the exit ramp off C-470 at Yosemite Street near Park Meadows Mall, according to Don Provost, principal of Alberta Development Partners. The western border is Willow Creek and the Willow Creek Trail. The new development will offer first-to-market restaurants, patio dining and gathering spaces, parklike landscaping and specialty retail, Provost said. “It’s really the last large undeveloped plot of land in the Park Meadows area.” The development will not include residential dwellings and will be strictly retail and dining space, Provost said. It will feature a more city-like feel where “no two buildings will look the same.” The Yard would be situated on 14 acres of land with more 84,400 square feet of leasable space that will create 400 permanent jobs, according to Alberta Development Partners. “We think we are bringing something different to the Park Meadows area,” Provost said. “We are bringing a unique urban design to the suburbs.”

The Yard is a proposed retail and dining development for Lone Tree. Alberta Development Partners said it plans to present a formal proposal to Lone Tree in early 2016. Courtesy rendering Alberta estimates the project will generate more than $4 million in annual sales tax revenue, with more than $1 million of the annual sales tax revenue going to Lone Tree. The project also will add an estimated 400 new jobs to the community. No plans or applications for development have been submitted to the city yet, said Kristin Knoll, spokeswoman for Lone Tree. Alberta is still in the process of meeting with the city and community members to gauge their input on the development and has plans

for submitting a formal application to the city early in the New Year. It wants to start construction in mid-2016 if approved, according to Provost. “The Yard will be a destination place to go for unique dining,” Provost said. “Our goal is to bring first-to-market dining concepts to the Denver market and blend it with an engaging landscape to provide visitors with a one-of-akind experience.” For more information and updates on the project, visit Facebook/TheYardLT.

Residents of the SSPR district can drop off trees seven days a week, from sunrise to sunset, in Cornerstone’s parking lot adjacent to the soccer fields, or at Willow Spring in the designated enclosure by the front gate. Most trash and waste-removal companies do not accept Christmas trees, so residents are encouraged to take advantage of this free program. All decorations need to be removed from the tree, includ-

ing lights, ornaments, garland, tinsel and stands. If the tree is wrapped in a plastic bag, it must be removed. Flocked or artificial trees and yard refuse will not be accepted. The trees will be mulched and used in landscaping throughout the district. Residents can obtain free mulch starting Dec. 30. It’s available weekdays, 7:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. at the Willow Spring site, or in Littleton at the northwest corner of Prescott Street and Prentice Avenue. Residents are responsible for loading and are encouraged to bring bags or trash cans and a shovel or pitchfork.

love to the masses,” Vito said. “Here especially, if you want to go snowboarding, it’s an expensive sport to be involved in. With this, it’s something kids can try at an affordable rate and see if they like it. If they do, invest in a season pass into the mountains.” Vito said he isn’t trying to replace the mountains, but SnowSports 365 would allow people to get involved in the sport at a low cost. Vito visited the Snowflex at Liberty University for a test run during the research phase of the project. “It is different,” he said. “For me, it took two or three runs to get used to it. But you can carve. I met people who learned on there, that have done both now — they said the main difference was that on snow, you’re a lot faster.” Cost for slope participants is expected to be less than $20 an hour with hourly, daily, monthly and seasonal pass options. Castle Rock residents will be given a 10 percent discount. “I think we’re really fortunate here in this town that we can partner with developers,” Councilman Brett Ford said. “I hope the project is wildly successful and I’m excited to have it in my backyard.”

25. The artificial ski surface is made of premium, engineered polymer surface called Snowflex. When misted with water, the surface provides a similar skiing experience to snow, but offers softer falls. Various jumps, moguls, rails, a lift or moving carpet system could also be included. An area for tubing and a lodge or concession building are also in the preliminary plans. The lease for SnowSports 365 would establish a commitment of 20 to 25 years with two subsequent 10-year option terms. The attraction is expected to draw more than 170,000 people annually. Several of these systems exist around the world, but the only other Snowflex full slope in the United States is located at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia.

Keep running strong as year is running out Some companies follow the calendar year as their fiscal year and others may follow a different fiscal year with many of them starting their year in October. So for those who started in October, the focus is on starting strong, Michael Norton and for those who began their journey WINNING back in January, WORDS the emphasis is on finishing strong. For most individuals, we started our year back in January and we are now looking at winding down the year and looking ahead to next year. So for both individuals and businesses, here we are, either at the beginning of the year or at the end of the year. And the question is, how are we doing on our strength-meter? Have we gotten out to a great start or are we struggling? In either case we have to ask ourselves: Why? This is important because if we can recognize where our strengths are and what has gotten us off to that good or fast start, we can build upon those strengths so that we can maintain positive momentum and stay strong in the pursuit of our goals. It is equally important to acknowledge why and where we may be struggling or even failing. An honest reflection and assessment on our personal goals and business goals will allow us to course-correct and make adjustments to our actions, behaviors, and maybe even our teams in order to get back on track. Whenever I think about this topic or talk with business executives or people I have coached, I am always reminded of one of the sayings someone shared with me when I first started skiing here in Colorado. It was a really cold day, and as we were putting on our gear in the lodge and debating the topic of how we should or shouldn’t layer up, someone from ski patrol passed by and shared these word, “start warm, stay warm, and you will finish warm.” Brilliance. The same holds true for how we pursue our personal and professional goals and objectives, we need to start strong, stay strong, and finish even stronger. At this time of year, many people are so close to achieving and even surpassing their own personal goals. And then the holidays hit, party invitations, big meals, rich desserts, a little more wine, a little more beer, and before we know it, we have forgotten to finish what we started and talk ourselves into starting all over again next year. You have to remind yourself to stay strong, finish even stronger, and that you are almost there. The same holds true for some businesses, especially sales people. They are so close to meeting and exceeding quotas, but then they allow themselves to believe that their customers and prospects are on vacation or taking time for the holidays and they make the crucial mistake of waiting until January to reengage and make contact again. And what they find is that their customer or prospect found an alternate solution and partner to provide the needed products or services. How do we start strong? Set proper goals, prepare and plan for success, and then focus on action and execution. How do we stay strong? Recognize what we are doing right and repeat the pattern and leverage successes. Look at failures and understand what went wrong so we can modify our plans and get back on track. How do we finish even stronger? Don’t take your foot off the accelerator. Think about what you have done, the behaviors you have been doing that have gotten Norton continues on Page 11

Expansion does a number on common sense There are 15 members of the Big Ten Conference. It’s ridiculous. What do you tell your son or daughter, who might just be learning basic mathematics? I guess you could tell the kid that there are 10 big members and five little members. But wait a minute. If you think you’ve caught me in a typo, not this time. And I’ll bet that there aren’t 15 of you who can name all 15. I can name the colors and nicknames of all of them, which tells you something. I am going to give you 10, and let you think about the other five. My father attended Michigan. I know that he would not be happy with the expansion. One of the schools, maybe two, simply don’t belong. OK, here we go. Michigan and Michigan State. It’s a great rivalry. Ohio State. Ugh. Indiana, Illinois and Iowa. Northwestern should be in the Ivy League. The Wisconsin Badgers, Purdue Boilermakers and Minnesota Golden Gophers. Great nicknames. Are you ready for the next five? I’ll bet you a blue jay you can’t name the 15th. A few years ago all of the major conferences expanded. My school’s league, the Pac-10, admitted Colorado and Utah. I was happy about it, because it meant that I would get more local Pac-12 coverage. I don’t know how CU fans feel about it, because the football team has done very poorly. But that’s not the only sport in town. CU track and cross-country are top ranked programs. Notre Dame was asked to join, but declined. They are in their own world, although some Irish teams compete in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Makes no sense. The best league addition was Penn State, annually a football powerhouse, until recently, and always excellent in women’s volleyball. Then Nebraska was lured out of the Big 8, which they completely dominated for years (along with Oklahoma). The Cornhuskers are struggling in the Big Ten, and their fans aren’t used to struggling. The Huskers are 3-5. When did that last happen? They might not even make it to a

bowl game. Then things got weird. Rutgers and Maryland were added. Why? The thinking is that Rutgers would give the Big Ten some visibility in the New York City area. Craig Marshall Smith Unfortunately, QUIET Rutgers came in DESPERATION wearing some dirty laundry. I don’t get Maryland. And they have some of the ugliest uniforms in the NCAA. I slipped a hint in here, about the fifteenth member. Time’s up. Johns Hopkins. Johns Hopkins is an “affiliate member.” The football team is undefeated, 7-0. But they don’t play in the Big Ten. They have played and beaten schools like Susquehanna, Muhlenberg and Gettysburg. Those are Division III schools. Now maybe you can guess which Johns Hopkins teams compete in the Big Ten. Lacrosse, where they excel. I said that I would bet you a blue jay. That was the hint. They’re the Johns Hopkins Blue Jays. And they bring glamour to the Big Ten, at least in one sport. The men have been national champions nine times, but not since joining the Big Ten. Do you know who won the 2015 national championship? The University of Denver Pioneers. From 1998 to 2007, the school’s mascot was a red-tailed hawk. Makes no sense. DU subsequently considered an elk and a jackalope. Which makes no sense either. My father used to sing a strange little song about his school. “Don’t send my boy to Illinois, a dying mother said, Don’t send my boy to Ohio, I’d rather he were dead, But send my boy to Michigan ...” Let me know where to send the blue jay.

Cultural celebrations enrich local holiday tapestry Metro area’s diversity reflected in festivities from Chinese New Year to Kwanzaa to Hanukkah By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The holiday fever that generally focuses on the Christian Christmas and American New Year celebrations can overshadow the multitude of other religious and cultural traditions that reflect the diversity of the Denver metro area: Buddhists celebrated Bodhi Day on Dec. 8. The event recognizes the day Buddha experienced enlightenment. Those with a Mexican heritage celebrate Our Lady of Guadalupe Day on Dec. 12 to honor the patron saint — the Virgin Mary — of Mexico. And there are so many more, including the African-American Kwanzaa, the Jewish Hanukkah, and the Vietnamese Tet and Chinese New Year festivities. “Colorado is known for its welcoming spirit,” said Kelly Brough, president and CEO of the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce. “Not just at the holidays, but year-round, our community benefits from the richness that comes as a result of celebrating different cultures and perspectives. It’s that spirit of collaboration and openness that make us such a top destination for the next generation.” Christmas Images marking the Christmas holiday include nativity scenes and Santa Claus. The nativity scene symbolizes the religious celebration of the birth of Jesus. Many churches hold Christmas Eve and candlelight services. “Christmas is one of the two most important dates on the Christian calendar,” said Scott Carranza, pastor of Jesus of Nazareth Compassionate Ministries and church in Lakewood. “Christmas marks the birth of Jesus and a time to celebrate the arrival of our savior. The other date is Easter, when we mourn Jesus dying on the cross for our sins, but then celebrate his resurrection.” Carranza pastors a Spanish church, which has an early Christmas Eve service so families can get home for the traditional celebration. “We also do a posada, which is the re-enactment of Mary and Joseph seeking lodging,” he said. “We rent a donkey, dress the parts and, with Mary riding the donkey, the group tours the neighborhood singing Christmas carols.” Of course, images of Santa are everywhere as the season of shopping for gifts shifts into high gear. Santa’s helpers are available to speak to children in a variety of locations, and the red-suited elf or his helpers visit hospitals, nursing homes and other locations. Hanukkah For the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah — also known as the Festival of Lights — celebrated this year from Dec. 6-14, the primary symbol is the menorah. The nine-pronged candlestick represents the rededication of the Jewish temple in Jerusalem in 165 B.C. after the Syrians-Greeks had desecrated it by placing idols of their gods there. “The holiday celebrates the miracle of oil for lighting the eight branches of the menorah in the temple,” said Zev Pomeranz, assistant rabbi at Aish Denver, a Jewish learning center in Greenwood Village. “There was only undesecrated oil to keep the menorah lighted for one day, but it would take eight days to purify oil. However, the miracle is there was enough oil for all eight days.” On the first day of Hanukkah, one candle in the menorah is lit. An additional candle is lit each day until all eight candles are burning. The ninth candle is used to light the other candles. Jewish congregations gather for Hanukkah services, reciting special prayers thanking God for the miracle of oil for the menorah and singing songs of praise. “There are also social gatherings where traditional Hanukkah foods … like latkes, potato pancakes that are cooked in hot oil,” Pomeranz said.

A girl pets the nose of one of the lion dancers during a past Chinese New Year celebration at the Twin Dragon Restaurant in Englewood. The restaurant is among a number of locations in the metro area that celebrates the holiday with fireworks and lion dancers. File photo Kwanzaa Kwanzaa celebrations are held from Dec. 26 to Jan. 1, primarily in locations around the Five Points neighborhood at the northeast edge of Denver’s central business district. “We have special programs on each of the seven days,” said Thedora Jackson of the Kwanzaa Committee of Denver. “Kwanzaa is a time to honor African heritage in the African-American culture, and there will be music, food and dancing reflecting African culture.” Last year’s first-day celebration attracted several hundred people, Jackson said. Kwanzaa began in 1965 when Maulana Karenga, professor of Africana Studies at California State University at Long Beach, sought to bring the African-American community together in a positive manner following the Watts riots in Los Angeles. The celebration was intended as a way to help African-Americans reconnect with their African cultural and historical heritage. The Kwanzaa celebration began in Denver in the early 1970s, Jackson said. Early celebrations were small, but they’ve grown in size and attendance every year. “We have many different activities,” she said. “One important activity is we take time during the celebration to honor and recognize those who have been active in our community.” Chinese New Year Firecrackers and dragons are images of the Chinese and Tet new years that are celebrated in late January or early February in the Denver area. As the name indicates, Chinese New Year celebrates the turning of the Chinese calendar. According to customs and traditions, it is a time to clean the house to sweep away all ill fortune and make way for incoming good fortune. Traditions also include lighting firecrackers and giving money gifts in red paper envelopes to children and the elderly. Although Chinese New Year is Feb. 7 and 8, the annual celebration at the Twin Dragon restaurant in Englewood will be Feb. 12 and 13. “We have the lion dancers come in to set off strings of firecrackers and to perform for our customers,” restaurant owner Shiou Yun Wang said. “The firecrackers and the dancers are traditional. It used to be the Twin Dragon event was the only celebration in the area. But now other restaurants and other locations in Denver’s Chinese neighborhoods are holding the celebrations.” Tet New Year Tet is the celebration of the Vietnamese New Year. The formal Vietnamese name means the Feast of the First Morning of the First Day. It is usually celebrated on the

Drummers take part in last year’s Kwanzaa celebration in the Five Points area of Denver. The celebration of African culture and heritage is planned again this year. Courtesy photo same day as the Chinese New Year. Traditions include visiting a friend, honoring ancestors, giving gifts and opening a business. The Vietnamese neighborhood called Little Saigon, on South Federal Boulevard between Alameda and Mississippi, holds some Tet celebrations. A Tet celebration was held last year at the King’s Landing Seafood Restaurant at 2200 W. Alameda Ave. that included lion dancers, fireworks and traditional Vietnamese food. The restaurant plans to celebrate Tet and Chinese New Year on Feb. 8, which will include lion dancers and other Tet holiday activities. Nguyen Cao Phan, 66, who lives in Denver, recalled the Tet festivities of his native country. “I lived near Natrang and Tet was a huge time of celebration,” he said during a shopping trip to Little Saigon. “I have been here since about 1979. Tet isn’t celebrated like it was in Vietnam, but there are restaurants that celebrate Tet and the Chinese New Year together. It is OK, I guess, but I wish there was a big Tet celebration to honor our heritage.”

Time to make lists — but don’t miss a musical gem There’s so much music available these days that people are going to miss — no matter how hard they try not to — some truly great pieces of work. That’s why this time of year is my favorite. It’s not because of the pretty lights, the baked goods or the gifts. It’s because for the rest of the month critics will be making their lists, checking them twice and picking everything from favorite songs, albums, most overlooked release, worst release, best reissue and a myriad of other musical categories. The approach a critic takes to this process is personal. I’m sure as many different methods and systems exist as there are critics. As someone who has been an unofficial critic for nearly a decade — compiling my own year-end list since 2008 — it’s a challenging process. For me, it begins with a deceptively simple question: Am I picking my favorite music — or the best? The difference in answers is huge. For instance, according to most critics, Bruce Springsteen’s “Born to Run” is his best album in that it represents his most radical leap forward as a musician and represents some of his most penetrating lyrics. On the other hand, “Darkness on the Edge of Town” or “Tunnel of Love” connect with me on a

far deeper level as a listener. So which receives more weight? That’s the challenge of being a critic — separating your feelings and examining the music objectively. You need to recognize what makes a piece of music special or Clarke Reader relevant, even if you don’t love it. LINER It’s a hard line to NOTES walk, and I only successfully do it some of the time. For a while, I tried to live up to a critic’s consensus of music. My first few year-end lists were less of a reflection of my favorite music than what I saw other critics choosing. At some point, you have to embrace the fact that music is a profoundly personal experience, and since it’s impossible to reach complete consensus on any kind of art, why bother trying? Instead of trying to build some kind of critical agreement, these lists should serve as a kind of personal time capsule.

The lists that most reflect the personality of the critic or staff are the best for this very reason — they focus on music that had the largest impact over the past 12 months. Those are the lists that show you something new. That is, after all, what these lists are for — to foster discussion and to funnel the best music into the ears of people who might’ve missed it. Such lists have helped me discover some of my favorite music: The placement of Miranda Lambert’s “Four the Record” on Rolling Stone’s 2011 list opened the door to country after nearly a lifetime of disinterest. A list on National Public Radio that same year introduced me to the searing soul sounds of the Alabama Shakes. And Complex’s year-ender, also in 2011, first alerted me to hip-hop virtuoso Kendrick Lamar, who has grown into one of the most important artists of our generation. Be willing to keep your ears open this time of year. Try a genre or artist you’ve never considered before. Finding a musical gem you may have missed is the perfect way to cap off the year. Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Adele’s “25,” released on XL Records Review: Adele returns after four long years with that once-in-a-lifetime voice, and a group of less sad songs. She looks to be only getting better with time, and her expanded influences bring a new sensibility to her music. Favorite song: “Hello” Most romantic line: “But when the pain cuts you deep When the night keeps you from sleeping Just look and you will see That I will be your remedy.”

mediums, including: Ken Elliott - oil and pastel - Elliott is a landscape artist with a keen focus on color and composition. His works are direct, showing the lessons of the impressionist as well as modern schools. Victoria Eubanks - encaustic - Eubanks brings 30 years of graphic sensibility and design experience to her studio. Her work pulls from the common place, with objects or themes richly portrayed in the translucency of wax. Through layers of color, imagery and texture, she enables the mundane to become exotic. Janice McDonald - collage - McDonald creates collages with fragments of paper and recycled imagery collected from her daily life and wanderings. She is especially intrigued with the often-overlooked backgrounds, colors, textures, shapes, and negative spaces in everyday printed materials. Carol Ann Waugh - fiber - Waugh is an award-winning mixed media fiber artist. Her work explores unexpected connections and juxtapositions that can lead to new ideas and artistic expressions. Mary Williams - wood sculpture - By combining striking colors and bold imagery, Williams creates playful sculptures and wall installations that reach out to all ages. Her inspiration comes from patterns in nature that she carves as shapes, lines, and textures to create abstract imagery. The artists exhibiting in Running Dialogue have shown their work together for the past five years at Denver-area venues including the Madden Museum, aBuzz Gallery and Denver International Airport. Running Dialogue can be viewed during LTAC open box office hours: weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and two hours before live performances. Performances include theatrical, musical and educational productions for

Wrestling rankings put Pomona on top

Tim Yount has released his preseason On The Mat rankings. In Class 5A, Pomona was the preseason topranked team. Ponderosa was sixth, Chaparral seventh, Castle View 11th and Arvada West 12th. Two-time state champion Tomas Gutierrez Jim Benton of Pomona was ranked No. 1 in the 120-pound class OVERTIME while Jackson Huffman of Horizon topped the list of 126-pound wrestlers. Cherry Creek’s state champion Matt Finesilver was No. 1 at 145 pounds. Other top-ranked wrestlers were Chaparral’s Dawson Cranmer at 170 pounds, Mountain Vista’s Trent Schultz at 195 pounds and Ponderosa’s Cohlton Schultz at 220.

Valor rallies to claim another title Eagles’ fourth-quarter comeback secures sixth championship By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Valor Christian looked a lot like a prizefighter during the Class 5A state championship football game at Sports Authority Field at Mile High. The Eagles were staggered and taking knockout punches from Pomona but pulled themselves off the mat to rally for a 29-26 victory Dec. 5 to capture their sixth state championship in the past seven seasons. Valor Christian trailed 26-14 with 8:55 remaining in the game, but rallied for 15 unanswered points with the help of a costly Pomona turnover to increase its state playoff record to 31-1 over a seven-season span in three classifications. The lone loss playoff loss was a 25-24 setback to Cherry Creek in last season’s 5A title game. The title win over Pomona avenged a 28-14 loss to the Panthers in the Eagles’ second game this season. “We were a little bit on our heels at

Bruins tie for third at mat tourney Cherry Creek, Arapahoe, Heritage part of 17-squad field By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Cherry Creek wrestlers who placed at state last year helped the Bruins tie for third place with Northglenn in team standings at the Dec. 5 Warrior Invitational wrestling tournament hosted by Arapahoe High School. “We are a senior-dominated team with a lot of guys coming back. Matt and Josh Finesilver were first and third at state, plus a lot of good seniors returning, so we should be pretty strong this season,” said Bruins coach Mike Luhring. “Coming to this tournament is good for Tourney continues on Page 23

Plains Conference Most Valuable Player Ponderosa senior tight end Matt Brady was named the 4A Plains League Most Valuable Player, according to Mustangs coach Jaron Cohen. Brady caught 51 passes for 522 yards and five touchdowns. He was also valuable on the defensive line. He had 37 total tackles that included five for losses. Other Ponderosa first team selections were wide receiver Nick Wilson, offensive lineman Jake Grimm and offensive lineman Zach Birkbeck. Back home from Dominican Republic Chaparral senior Emily Moore is back home and more enlightened about life in the Dominican Republic. Moore, 17 other softball and baseball players, a few parents, and Chap softball and baseball coach Alan DiGiosio spent the week of Thanksgiving in the Dominican Republic to complete Phase Two of the Diamond Project in which softball equipment donated last fall was sent to the Dominican Republic. “It was an amazing trip,” recalled Moore. “We played four games against teams from the DR and we also put on a fast-pitch clinic for local girls. It was so awesome to see how even though we live 2,500 miles away in different countries with a language barrier, we still understand the same game with the same rules and same passion. “We got to spend a lot of time in the towns and hanging out with the locals. Everyone was so nice and friendly and generous to us. It was really an eye-opener. Most people down there have so little, yet they still are so kind and happy. Here in the United States we have so much and unfortunately we often just take it all for granted.” Community Connection International, which helped arrange the trip to the Dominican Republic, is accepting donations that are mainly used to give the literacy coaches in Consuelo a meager monthly salary. The goal this December is to increase the four monthly donors to 20. Information can be obtained from Chaparral teacher Angie Bennett, who is the CEO of the nonprofit CCI, at bennettcci@gmail.com. International Bowl participant Cherry Creek junior linebacker Santino Marchiol has been named to the United States Under 18 national football team that has been assembled by USA Football. He will be one of 56 players on Team USA who will play a team from Canada in the 2016 International Bowl, which will be held Jan. 31 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas. Perfect season for placekicker Arapahoe placekicker Nate Rapue didn’t miss when he was sent out to convert an extra point or kick a field goal. Rapue made 26 of 26 points after touchdown kicks and connected on all six of his field goal attempts to finish the season with 44 points.

Eagles win hoops opener

Heritage boys roll to victory, outscoring Littleton 56-30 By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Heritage found the range early, quickly built a lead, and went on to beat Littleton 56-30 in its Dec. 1 boys basketball game, the season opener for both teams. “We are a young team with two seniors, so it will it will be a building process for us early in the season,” Heritage coach Sam Cruz said before the home game. “We had four senior starters graduate, so we are sort of starting over.” Littleton coach Ryan Fletcher said the Lions also are inexperienced and fairly young. “We knew we would be an inexperienced team coming into this season,” he said. “We just hope we can accelerate the learning curve so we quickly become a solid team.”

zKey moments Heritage scored the first 13 points of the game while the Lions struggled to hit their stride shooting. Their first points came with 44 seconds left in the initial quarter on a pair of free throws. The Eagles continued to hit outside shots, plus drive to the basket to build a 31-17 advantage by halftime. Despite the difference in the score, Littleton continued to play hard, diving to the floor to try to control the loose basketball and looking for ways to get open for a good shot around the aggressive Eagles defense. Key players/statistics Walker Andrews was the scoring leader for Heritage with 17 points. He also pulled down five rebounds, made two steals and blocked four shots. Teammate Carl Opitz had 15 points and a pair of steals. Lions junior Sam Kail was his team’s scoring leader with 15 points, which included three from three-point range. He also had five rebounds and two steals. Ethan Vasquez,

I feel we will develop into a pretty good defensive team. These kids play hard every time on the court and that is all a coach can ask.” The Littleton coach said after the game the Lions would get off to a better start. “The Heritage defense press got to us a little bit in half-court play,” Fletcher said. “Give them credit, their defense kept us from ever

Littleton takes 32-28 victory over Heritage in hoops opener By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Littleton-Heritage Dec. 1 girls basketball game looked like it was going to be a blowout early, but it became a nail-biter down the stretch as the Lions won the game, 32-28. “We are a young team this season. We have a lot of talent but I didn’t know what to expect in a game situation,” Littleton coach Adam Williams said before the game at Heritage. “The team played well tonight and this will be a building block as we move forward with the season.” Heritage coach Renee Hemmie said there are seven seniors on the varsity but none have significant varsity experience. “We are an inexperienced team learning to play together,” she said. “But we can pull it together and have a season with more wins than last year.” Key moments The youth and inexperience of both teams was evident as the score was still 0-0 almost two minutes into the game.

Littleton found the range and built an 11-2 advantage late in the first quarter. Heritage battled back and took the lead for the first time at 16-15 with 1:34 left in the half. The score remained close for the remainder of the game. The score was tied at 19 midway through the third period before Littleton pulled ahead 23-19 at the end of the quarter. It stayed close but the Lions hit a couple free throws as time ran out to make the final score 32-28. Key players/statistics Littleton’s scoring leader was Gabbie Matl with 15 points that included two field goals from outside the three-point line. She also had six rebounds and three assists. Teammate Katie Puchino scored 10 points for the Lions. The leading scorer for Heritage was Haily Cechini with 12 points. Her sister Baily, a senior, had 10 rebounds and four steals. They said it “I was surprised at our quick start in this game,” Lions coach Williams said after the game. “We are so young that our team Girls continues on Page 23

That is a great experience for them.” Legend took the tournament championship by amassing 170 points, well ahead of the 136 points scored by Fruita Monument. Cherry Creek posted a score of 133 points and shared third place in team standings with Northglenn. Arapahoe scored 89 points and finished in sixth place, while Heritage scored 54 points and finished 13th in the 17-

team field. With almost 200 wrestlers competing, it was a day of nonstop action. Wrestlers earn team points for match wins in both championship and consolation brackets, as well as points for pins, technical falls, forfeits, byes and major decisions. Points are also awarded for placement in the bracket. Wrestlers compete according to weight, and the meet has 14 weight divisions ranging from 106 pounds to 285 pounds. Cherry Creek brought many wrestlers to the tournament, which allows a team to enter more than one athlete in each weight division. Most of the Bruins’ entries earned points for the team. Josh Finesilver won the weight division championship at 132 pounds, and his twin brother, Matt, won the 152-pound weight division title. The Bruins have 42 wrestlers on their

has been up and down in summer league play and in scrimmages so far this season. We looked pretty good last Wednesday but not so good Saturday.” He said the win over rival Heritage is big because, when he started as head coach six years ago, the Lions didn’t expect to beat the Eagles. But this is the fourth year for a Littleton win and a big boost for the young team heading into the season. Haily Cechini said it was a difficult night for her Heritage team. “We only have four returning varsity players, so that is a challenge for us this early in the season,” the junior said. “But we will be going to Reno this weekend (to the High

getting into our offense. We will just keep working to get better.” After the game, Heritage player Casey Opitz was smiling. “I had a pretty good night. But it is not about me, it is about the team,” he

roster. “We have quite a few freshmen this season,” coach Luhring said. “Some of the freshmen have come up though our youth wrestling program, and some are new to the sport. We brought quite a few young kids to this tournament so they can see that being on varsity is a big step, and you have to wrestle hard every match to place in tournaments like this.” Steve Sisler, Arapahoe coach, said the Warriors will be a gritty team that works well together, works hard and competes every chance they get. “We have a mix of returning veterans as well as some seniors and some underclassmen that are new to the varsity this season,” he said. Foster Houts is a returning Warriors letterman.

Sierra Winter Challenge in Nevada) for four games and that will give us the court time to get to know each other better as a team.” She said basketball is her only sport and she only plays during the high school season, so it was hard getting back into the swing of the game, particularly with her new teammates. But she added that she feels the team will come together and her goal is just to have fun and enjoy playing basketball. Matl said everyone on the Lions team was a little nervous taking the court in the opener against rival Heritage, but everyone put their hearts in their play and it worked well. “I wasn’t shocked at our first shot because I know our girls can play at that level, but I was happy to see it all come together that quickly,” she said. “I was a little nervous down the stretch when the score was so close and wanted to see those final couple of minutes go by quickly. For me personally, I know three of the Heritage players from middle school so I wanted to show how much I have changed and what

said. “We played an unbelievable game tonight and we shared the ball. There are some things we can clean up, but it is a good start to the season.” He said he knew this team was special. “Most of us have been playing together for two years so this should be our year,” Opitz said. “Personally, I want to do what I can to make us a better team.”

Going forward Heritage played one nonleague game before going on the road to play traditional rival Arapahoe on Dec. 16. The Eagles will close out the 2015 portion of the schedule Dec. 18 on the road at Lakewood. The Lions had one nonleague game before taking part in the annual Spartan Tournament at Berthoud High School Dec. 11-12.

“I am excited to be back in wrestling, and I am looking to move up in the rankings,” he said. “I wrestle all year, and I am a better wrestler now than I was at this time last year because my technique has improved and I am stronger.” He said he went to state last year, and his goal is to keep working to get back there again this year. Houts had a good tournament as he finished second in the 220-pound division. His teammates Dakota Gutierrez (106 pounds) and Dane Carr (160 pounds) each finished third in their weight classes. Heritage is a young team this season. The Eagles wrestled well, and Jared Todd paced the team as he won the 160-pound championship. His teammate Alejandro Gardara finished fourth at 152 pounds.

our team could do.” Going forward Littleton had two more nonleague games before hosting the annual Mane Event Tournament, a six-team tournament that will be held Dec. 11-12. The Heritage schedule after the Reno trip includes one nonleague game before the Eagles play rival Arapahoe at home Dec. 12. The next weekend, the Eagles host the eightteam Heritage Memorial Hoopla Tournament Dec. 17-19.

FOR RELEASE WEEK OF NOV. 30, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might feel that you have all the answers right now. But it might be wise to listen to other ideas before you decide to close the lid on other possibilities. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Bovines give and expect loyalty, so it might not be easy to reconcile with someone you feel let you down. Why not ask a neutral party to set up a clear-the-air meeting? GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Anticipating the holidays with family and friends fuels your must-do Gemini energies. But try to pace yourself so you’ll be up for whatever comes along later. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) More background information might come through regarding a decision you expect to make. Be sure to check the source carefully before you move. LEO (July 23 to August 22) The strong, nurturing nature of the Lion comes through this week as you reach out to family and friends in need of your warm and loving support. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A relationship that has almost totally unraveled could be close to being restored with more effort on your part to be more patient and less judgmental. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your sense of fair play is strong this week, which can cause a problem with a longtime relationship. But in the end, you’ll know what decision to make. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You might not know all the facts behind an unwelcome development, so keep that Scorpion temper in check and resist lashing out at anyone. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) This is a good time to reinforce relationships -- family, friends, colleagues -- that might have been overlooked in recent years.

Super Crossword & Sudoku Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Family situations continue to thrive. Business associations also improve. Some holiday plans might have to be shifted a bit. Be flexible. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Avoid any influence of negative energy in this week’s aspect by not allowing small problems to grow into large ones. Work them out immediately. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) A friend might need advice on how to deal with a challenge to his or her moral values. And who better than you to give the honest answer? Good luck. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a sense of adventure that inspires others to follow your lead. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
