Council not biting on eatery To detractors of Hooters, it’s more than a wing thing By Jane Reuter

Event showcases Spanish culture SkyView students display language skills By Christy Steadman
csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com
Spanish is a different type of class, said SkyView Academy teacher Jessica Lui. Students generally look forward to Spanish class, she added, because they watch videos, do some role playing, sing and listen to music. Spanish language and culture is taught at SkyView, a tuition-free public charter school in Highlands Ranch, to all students from preschool through eighth grade, and high school students have the choice to continue the courses as a foreign language option. Spanish class is fun, Lui said, but the students are learning a lot — a few hundred vocabulary words each year plus sentence structure, she said, so they can have a basic conversation by at least the time they are in middle school. When a person begins to study a foreign language at a young age, Lui said, they can Spanish continues on Page 9
Siena Negrón points out her assigned country, Puerto Rico, on a map. Negrón, a third-grader, explained that each student was assigned a Spanish-speaking country to study, and students spent about three weeks researching information on their country. The research was then presented to attendees of SkyView Academy’s Spanish celebration on May 2.
A motion to approve Hooters’ liquor license languished for lack of a second during the May 5 Lone Tree City Council meeting. Mayor Jim Gunning’s request for a second, repeated twice, was both times met with silence from council members who already had voiced their reluctance about the restaurant opening along County Line Road. “There wasn’t an approval or denial (given),” City Manager Seth Hoffman said. “One of those things needs to happen. “There are limited reasons a liquor license can be denied under state statute. Any denial would have to be articulated within the scope of the statutes.” The issue will be continued during the council’s 7 p.m. May 19 meeting. Between now and then, Gunning said the council will work with staff to answer some remaining questions regarding the application. Hooters, known for its chicken wings and waitresses, or “Hooters Girls,” is applying for a liquor license at the former TGI Fridays at County Line Road and Yosemite Street. The space has been vacant since TGI Fridays closed in 2014. Lone Tree Hooters Inc. has already signed a 10-year lease for the site. The stall came after Hooters’ representatives gave extensive testimony about a community survey showing support for the Lone Tree location, the chain’s recent efforts to become more family friendly, its “very strict uniform standard” and history of liquor license violations. Gunning called for a vote. “It’s a legitimate business,” he said. “It’s located in a mostly business area of town. The residential impact there is very little. The survey was 80 percent in favor of doing it. We have very little grounds to say no to an established franchise moving into another building that an established franchise occupied.” Hooters continues on Page 9
Solutions to financial needs differ by district
Littleton Public Schools didn’t wait on state By Jane Reuter
jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com The outgoing Littleton Public Schools superintendent said his community shares the Douglas County School Board’s concerns about Colorado’s school-funding formula, but decided it couldn’t wait for help from the state. “This is not my district, it’s not our staff’s district, it’s the community’s district,” said Scott Murphy, reflecting on its decision to put an ultimately successful bond issue on the 2013 ballot. “The Murphy community has to decide what it wants its schools to do and be. “We’d gotten to the point where we could wait all day for the state, but we decided not
to.” Like Douglas County, Littleton needed money to repair and maintain aging buildings — its average structure is more than 50 years old. It’s using the funds to replace boilers and roofs, update electrical and plumbing systems, and improve technology infrastructure. About 60 percent of voters approved the LPS measure, which Murphy said was not controversial. In part, he believes that’s because the school board was united in support of the issue. With passage of the 2013 measure, LPS extended its mill levy, and taxpayers’ school bills stayed the same. Had voters not approved the question, their tax bill would have decreased by $36 a year, or $3 a month. The situation is almost identical in Douglas County today. DCSD, which has a $275 million list of unfunded projects, could ask taxpayers in November to approve a new $200 million bond. Because it would replace a bond that is maturing, homeowners’ school tax bills would

FUNDING OUR SCHOOLS
LPS continues on Page 10
Douglas County School Board President Kevin Larsen strongly supported a school-funding measure in 2010, but now says the school district shouldn’t rush to meet the increasingly narrow window of opportunity to put a similar issue on the November 2015 ballot. He also doesn’t entirely disagree with Littleton Public Schools Superintendent Scott Murphy’s contention that a district shouldn’t rely on the state changing its formula to help solve capital needs. “I think there’s some truth to that, but you have to have a community that’s informed in order to be ready (to approve a ballot issue),”
Larsen said. “I’m not going to stop trying to win at the state level, because I think the amount we’re shortchanged is significant.” The Douglas County and Littleton school districts are among the lowest funded on the Front Range. “At the same time, I think the discussions that are going on in the community (about capital needs) are helpful,” said Larsen, adding that more such talks are needed before the board can decide on a course of action. A November 2015 bond issue measure could generate about $200 million for DCSD, addressing most of the $275 million in capital needs identified by the district’s Long Range Planning Committee. The board voted in 2014 not to put the measure on the ballot, saying Douglas County residents — already overburdened and paying a disproportionate share of taxes — were unlikely to approve a local funding question. It has cited similar Larsen concerns this year, the last chance to propose a bond to maintain tax bills that would otherwise DCSD continues on Page 10

At 50, ACC gets its own day College launches time capsule as part of anniversary fest
IF YOU GO WHAT: 50 Years of Excellence at ACC
By Jennifer Smith
WHEN: 7 to 11 p.m., May 21
jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com Allan P. Crawfurd, the first president of Arapahoe Community College, could never have imagined that the college would livestream its 50th anniversary party from the trendy new cafe on its Littleton campus to its Parker and Castle Rock locations — or even imagined what “livestream” might mean. Today, ACC’s students can learn all about livestreaming and pretty much anything else they want: nursing, law enforcement, mortuary science, retail management, psychology, automotive service … the list goes on and on. “It’s such an honor to get to carry on its legacy,” said Diana Doyle, current president, during the celebration on May 5, exactly 50 years since the local election that created the college in 1965. “ACC has such a rich history, and we have every intention of keeping that intact as we move forward.” Students, faculty and community members were on hand to hear Doyle read Gov. John Hickenlooper’s proclamation declaring it “Arapahoe Community College Day” in Colorado. The proclamation notes ACC was founded through a grassroots movement and was the first community college in the metro area. It has grown from the original student body of 550, which met at various houses and a former elementary school in the neighborhood, to today serving more than 22,000 students on three campuses and online. “The mission of Arapahoe Community College is to provide innovative and responsive educational and economic opportunities in an accessible, inclusive environment that promotes success for students, employees, and the community … and Arapahoe Community College upholds the highest academic standards and supports the growth and success of each individual,”

reads the proclamation. Carol Patterson, Doyle’s executive assistant and head of the celebration committee, can vouch for that. Her daughter Susan graduated from ACC in 2013 with an associate degree and is now majoring in business at the University of Colorado-Denver. “ACC is a great place to go for an education,” she said. A highlight of the event was the big reveal of what’s going into a time capsule mounted on the wall outside ACC’s new café, which will be bolted up tight for the next 25 years. Along with ACC promo items like pens and coffee mugs, there’s a photo of the first faculty, a CD performed by ACC philosophy instructor and accomplished guitarist Jeff Broome, that day’s Denver Post, this year’s course catalog, a cell phone and perhaps the thing that will be least familiar to young students 25 years from now: a wired mouse. The most inexplicable item is a time capsule from 1998 that staff dug up while looking for items to place in the new one. It has no instructions as to when to open it or why it was there in the first place, though Patterson said 1998 is around the time work began on the Weber Center for Learning Resources, named for then-retiring president James Weber and completed in 2001.

A video depicts scenes from ACC’s past, including the original nursing department on Rapp Street. “We wanted to dive in, but it’s not time,” said Patterson. “We think it should be at least 25 years.” Patterson invites the entire community to the 50th anniversary’s last big shindig, a
gala event on May 21. “Anyone can come, including alumni and community members, and anybody who has an interest in supporting ACC into the future,” she said.

No campaign violation found for school district Appeals court reverses decision handed down in December By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Colorado Court of Appeals reversed a lower court’s decision and found the Douglas County School District did not violate the state’s Fair Campaign Practices Act. The school district issued a short press release announcing the reversal, saying it “was pleased” with the decision. Larkspur resident and former school board candidate Julie Keim filed the original case, alleging the district crossed a legal line when it sent a positive, district-financed report on its education reforms to 85,000 people two months before the contentious November 2013 school board election. The three-judge Court of Appeals panel was split in its May 7 ruling, with one judge voting to uphold the administrative law judge’s decision. Denver Judge Hollyce Farrell’s December 2014 ruling stated distribution of the report — “The Most Interesting School District in America?” — by Rick Hess and Max Eden constituted a contribution to the reform-slate candidates. The school district paid half of the $30,000 contracted fee for the report. The Douglas County Educational Foundation — the district’s nonprofit fundraising arm — paid the rest. Keim said she doesn’t yet know if she will appeal the case to the Colorado Supreme Court. She has 42 days in which to decide. “I’m still digesting the opinion and contemplating what the future may hold,” she
said. “I would encourage anyone to read the opinion, and then ask themselves if this is really a win for Douglas County, if they are proud of their school district and if they feel the school district’s behavior is acceptable — and if they want to live in a society where we allow our public dollars to be spent unfettered to influence elections.” School board president Kevin Larsen did not immediately return calls for comment. To date, Keim has spent about $25,000 to battle the case. Since October 2013, DCSD has paid about $161,500 to Brownstein, Hyatt, Farber, Schreck, the legal firm that has represented it in the case. Judges Richard Gabriel and Laurie Booras said the report did not constitute a contribution. “There was no evidence in the record that the district made a payment to a third party for the benefit of any candidate committee, issue committee, political committee, small donor committee, or political party,” they wrote in their ruling. They also agreed the lower court “applied an incorrect legal standard” in concluding the report was designed to support a candidate. Though two judges reversed the original ruling, they rejected the district’s contention that no public funds or resources were used in connection with the report. “In its answer to Keim’s amended complaint, the district admitted that district resources were used to fund the Hess Report,” they wrote. Gabriel and Booras also chided the district for the tone used in some of its arguments. They said its references to Keim’s

arguments “with inflammatory (or perhaps sarcastic) language” and other references “to certain of the ALJ’s findings in a derisive way … were inappropriate and unfounded.” Dissenting Judge Daniel Taubman agreed with the lower court that the report was crafted to promote the reform candidates, and that it constituted a “significant” contribution.
“To me, it is undisputed that the dissemination of a report shortly before the election praising the reform agenda to 85,000 residents in Douglas County would benefit the school board’s reform candidates,” Taubman wrote.

Group discusses race and violence Q ‘Black Lives Matter’ event looks at roots of racism
A m i
By Jane Reuter
B
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com The roots of racism are historic and tangled, and they continue to grow in the form of recent police shootings of unarmed black men, pastor and Denver Freedom Riders founder Anthony Grimes told a group of people at ThunderRidge High School on May 11. Grimes was the featured speaker during “Black Lives Matter,” a presentation at the school library organized by Max McBride, a sophomore. McBride is a black student who said he wants to open the door for more discussion on such issues in predominantly white suburbs. About 30 people came to listen to Grimes, McBride and activist Theo Wilson share their concerns about modern-day race issues and ways to combat them. McBride said he was dismayed by his classmates’ lack of response to the 2012 shooting of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin and subsequent violent incidents involving AfricanAmericans. “Robin Williams’ death got more buzz than any innocent black man being shot down by a police officer, and I didn’t feel that was right,” he said. Wilson said many people misinterpret the saying “Black Lives Matter,” a movement that began in 2013 after George Zimmerman was acquitted in Martin’s death. “The statement ‘Black lives matter’ is not saying that white lives don’t,” said Wilson, deputy executive director of Shop Talk Live, a Denver-based group that advocates for improved human rights. “The reason why that hash tag was created … is because they weren’t mattering as much in the legal system. “We really thought Obama was going to get us into the post-racial society. Now we’re once again grappling with this old demon we thought we kicked.” Wilson describes racism as “a system of power and privilege” that began when Africans first came to the United States. “We were brought over here as a labor class,” he said. “There was no other intention.” Caucasian Americans, he said, “have a 400-year head start on wealth accumulation, property ownership and political power.” “Now we’re living in the modern era with these structures still in place,” Wilson said. “The judges and the lawyers still have this system that was written for white people.” Grimes said his concern is not with white people, but white supremacy. “I love white people,” he said. “Ya’ll gave us John Elway. I love going to IKEA. I love Eminem. I’m a lover of all people;

Photos by Jane Reuter that’s what I believe as a Christian. But we’ve got this problem with white supremacy. “The problem is for far too long we’ve been mattering for the economic benefit of other people.” Grimes said much of the problems rests with the American prison system, which he says is a new and accepted form of slavery. “There are now more African-American men in prison than were enslaved in 1850,” he said. “The only way a black man can make money for his community is in prison. Prison labor can be as profitable as sweat shops in third world countries. “If we don’t get at the economics of (race problems), we will never really solve the issues.” Several ThunderRidge students attended both to support

McBride and learn more about the issues. One teen said she’d lived in a predominately black Georgia neighborhood for four years before coming to Highlands Ranch. “To hear (my friends’) stories of being afraid to walk in their own neighborhoods and down the streets at night and during the day, it makes me want to be more educated about racial issues and be able to address them in my own community,” she said. “I was born and raised in Highlands Ranch, so I’m really oblivious to everything,” said another classmate, adding she came because she wants to help in some way.

Michelle Medina, 39, was charged with theft and was being held at the Arapahoe County jail on $7,250 bond as of May 9. Medina confessed to taking a shiba inu puppy valued at $1,100 from the Perfect Pets store at 6840 S. University Blvd., the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release. On May 7, sheriff’s office investigators interviewed Medina, whom they had identified as a suspect with the help of tips

deliberation and first-degree assault with a deadly weapon in the stabbing of 24-year-old coworker Francisco Arredondo. The two had argued in the Qdoba kitchen about 8 p.m. on March 20, 2014, and Alston allegedly then walked behind Arredondo in the food line and stabbed him with a 10-inch knife. The report states that when the officer who initially examined Arredondo moved the victim’s arm, “he began to lose consciousness” and was “gasping for air.” Arredondo was transported to Littleton Adventist Hospital with stab wounds to his right side. The Qdoba manager said Alston and Arredondo apparently had no previous problems and did not know why Alston stabbed Arredondo.

Catching right wave is crucial to success “Success begets success” — a simple three-word statement that can become a tsunami of positive outcomes in our personal and professional lives as we ride the wave of success. Now be careful, because just as quickly, we can get pulled under by the wave. Let me share what I mean here. When we are experiencing success, happiness, and joy, it seems that we are attracting even more success, more happiness, and even more joy. More opportunities seem to come our way, people want to hang out with us, and our lives become more enriched with each day that passes. This happens as we come to expect the good things in life to become manifest in our lives, and in all areas of our lives. We ride the wave. Yet the same holds true for when we start feeling low or down in some way. Maybe we lost a sale or a deal, maybe we didn’t get the job we had hoped for, and maybe a relationship we are in is suffering or has maybe even ended recently. We are so low we forgot what the top of the waves look like or feel like. We lost the sense of the sun and wind hitting us as the undertow drags us further under with each negative feeling or belief.
So if we can say that success begets success, can we say that defeat only brings on more defeat? Only if we hold on to a belief system that says success is for others and not for me. We say things like, “I lost, and I will lose again.” But when we hold on to the belief that a defeat only makes us stronger, we will win the next one, we are already swimming out and looking for the next wave to ride in. We say things like, “Bring it on, I am ready.” We are riding the wave. A wave could be a mighty force of nature. We have seen as waves have devastated homes and communities as they wreak havoc upon the shoreline. And we have also seen the beauty and majesty of the waves as they crest upon the shore. We have watched in person or on television as surfers of all skill
levels and ages have ridden the tops of the waves to glory just like champions. Our success, yes, our own personal success can be found atop the waves we ride in our own lives. If we are in a relationship that is going beautifully, then we need to ride that wave and make it even stronger — doing more each day to enhance that relationship. If our business is delivering results beyond what we are expecting or forecasting, we need to ride that wave and raise the bar even higher. And I know I don’t have to tell you what to do if you have been crushed recently by a wave of negativity. I know that you are already aware that it’s time to swim back out and find the next wave to ride atop of, riding the wave of success and current of positivity. How about you? Are you riding the tops of the waves or feeling crushed by the weight of the water? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we ride the waves of success it really will be a better than good week.

Fight’s over, so it’s back to the century After the Mayweather-Pacquiao “Fight of the Century,” both boxers were sued. I couldn’t be happier. Mayweather was sued for $20 million by the mother of three of his children. Pacquiao was sued for not disclosing a pre-fight injury. I decided to come up with a list of things I would rather do than to watch two men fight each other. Digest my breakfast. Open a jar of pickles. Wave to my mail carrier. Fold towels. Learn how to say, “No more pancakes,” in German. Switch to Geico. No, maybe not. Read Steven Tyler’s autobiography. No, maybe not that either. But I’m sure I would much rather read Norman Fell’s autobiography. True or false? Fell made a brief appearance in “The Graduate.” True. I guess there must be something viscerally masculine about watching men — and women — knock the yogurt out of each other. I think I would rather spend the day trying to find out everything there is to know about yogurt, than to watch two men fight each other. But I would watch if Simon and Garfunkel got into the ring. Weren’t they at odds for years anyhow? And they wrote that great song about
Barbara Boxer, the United States senator from California. I love that song. “In the clearing stands the Boxer,” right? She is a feisty senator, that’s for sure. Maybe I am missing a chromosome. I am not sure why boxing doesn’t interest me. Or watching action films. I like the action between two intelligent and clever and witty people who have a conversation. Now you’re talking. When it comes to beating each other up, I just don’t get it. I guess Floyd Mayweather has had some problems separating his profession from his personal life. Remember Sonny Liston? Connections with the underworld. Failed to answer the bell for the seventh round in his fight with Muhammed Ali in 1964. Liston may have had his trainer put an astringent on his gloves before the fifth round, to get it into Ali’s eyes.
Professional — and amateur — boxing has been soiled by corruption for a long time. There even have been numerous incidents in the Olympics. It’s one of the reasons why I don’t watch anything that is judged. Here’s another beautiful name: Don King. I would like to see him go 10 with Robert DeNiro. Director Martin Scorsese was as disinterested in boxing as I am, but nevertheless he created one of the best films ever made involving a sport: “Raging Bull.” The next time you watch it, I want you to notice where the camera is when Jake LaMotta is determined. It’s in the ring. When LaMotta is not determined, the camera is outside the ring. Brilliant metaphor. In one fight LaMotta decides enough is enough, and the camera moves from outside the ring to the inside. And notice the blood on the ropes. Of course, there have been times when I wished I could have socked someone, but I know I would have regretted it. I do not have violent impulses that lead to fist fighting. I take my anger out in writing. I like to put 8-ounce gloves on my verbs and adjectives, but now and then, I have regretted even doing that.

How changes in Medicare could affect you In April, Congress passed legislation that’s supposed to fix once and for all the formula the government uses to pay doctors who treat Medicare patients. The so-called doc fix legislation has been a political hot potato since the late 1990s, when Congress tried to slow down healthcare costs by cutting doctor payments. The docs complained when Medicare tried to cut their payments, and 17 times Congress stopped the cuts. This time was different, though. Democrats and Republicans came together to fix the formula, gave doctors a small raise, and began to change the basic Medicare benefit that has helped millions of seniors and disabled people for 50 years. Changing Medicare from an insurance plan that pays virtually all a person’s medical costs (assuming they have Medigap coverage) has been a longstanding goal of many Republicans and Democrats, too. The end game is to convert Medicare into what’s known as a premium support or a voucher plan. Under this arrangement the government would give seniors a sum of money to buy whatever coverage they wanted in the open market. The plan would be similar to the subsidies that 8 million or so Americans receive for Obamacare policies. Whether such vouchers will keep pace with medical inflation over the years is unclear. The same applies to Obamacare subsidies. The current legislation doesn’t go that far yet, but senior advocates see it as a foot in the door. Here’s
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Hooters should stay out of Lone Tree
what it will do:
More means testing of Medicare premiums The premise of Medicare was that it was social insurance. Everyone paid the same premium and everyone had the right to receive the same basic benefits. But in 2006 Congress changed the law so that individuals with incomes over $85,000 and $170,000 for couples paid more. The House bill changes the rules again so that some people already paying higher premiums will pay more, a measure that could further erode universal political support for the program. The president’s budget proposal would have required higher premiums for even more seniors. Stacy Sanders, the federal policy director for the Medicare Rights Center, an advocacy group, told Medicare continues on Page 9
I was surprised to learn that a Hooters restaurant plans to move into the building previously occupied by TGI Fridays on Yosemite Street and County Line Road. Although it’s my understanding this business does not violate any code in Lone Tree, Hooters is not a business I support in our community. Hooters demeans young women by requiring them to wear skimpy, inappropriate uniforms. I feel we should admire young women (as well as young men) for their gifts, skills and abilities, not their body parts. I value young people too much to not say anything. In a culture that objectifies women, I choose to support family values and uphold others’ dignity. Margarita Nelson Lone Tree

Council member Kim Monson made a motion to approve the license, even after expressing gratitude toward opponents who spoke. “However, I feel this is really a property rights and freedom-of-speech issue,” she said. “We have to be really careful in America where we don’t honor property rights and freedom of speech, even if we don’t like what somebody else says. If we start to go down that road, we could lose a lot of our freedoms. “Your freedom is, if you don’t like that establishment, you don’t frequent it.” None of the other three council members seconded the motion. Gunning asked if the council would reconsider but again was met with silence. Monson asked if she could speak but Gunning advised against it. “We’re subject to a legal action now,” he said. “I think they’re going to exercise their legal right.” Attorney Jack Rotole, who represented Hooters during the meeting, offered little comment after it concluded. “There’s nothing to say because no decision has been made yet,” he said. Brian Weston, Lone Tree Hooters president, did not return calls for comment. During the hearing, council member Susan Squyer said she doesn’t like the idea of a Hooters in Lone Tree.
learn it fairly quickly. “They’re able to distinguish the sounds more easily.” But students are not only learning a language, Lui said, they also do research projects and learn about the different cultures in all the Spanish-speaking countries of the world. On May 2, the school hosted a threehour Spanish celebration where at least 600 students, pre-K through 12th grade, got to boast their Spanish-language skills and cultural knowledge. “It’s a full-school Spanish celebration,” Lui said, “to showcase what they’ve learned.” Students from each grade level performed skits and had their art and schoolwork on display for attendees to view and learn about what the students studied. Cultural entertainment included Zumba dance lessons, a salsa-tasting contest, games, Argentine folklórico music and flamenco dance performed by Natalia Perez del Villar, accompanied by Mark Herzog on guitar. The students’ accomplishments are something to be proud of, said Spanish teacher Jennifer Garrett. The Spanish celebration was “their moment,” she said. “It gives me great pride my students get to learn about the different cultures.”

me, “This is problematic because eventually middle class people would pay more. If the president’s proposal were implemented today, beneficiaries with incomes around $45,000 in today’s dollars would pay higher premiums.”
Require more skin in the game That means some seniors will have to pay more out-of-pocket. No one who becomes eligible for Medicare in 2020 or thereafter will be able to buy coverage for Medicare’s Part B deductible, which applies to physician
Applicants for the Lone Tree Hooters, including president Brian Weston, second from right, leave the City Council chambers after their liquor license failed to gain approval. Lone Tree resident Doug Nelson, left, is among those opposed to the restaurant. Photo by Jane Reuter “It’s more about the image and what that brings to our community,” she said, but noted the council lacks legal grounds to deny a liquor license. “I will abide by the law, but I probably won’t come in to Hooters.” Four people — all members of the same family — testified against granting the license during the May 5 meeting. “This establishment would compromise the quality of life we currently have in Lone Tree,” said Margarita Nelson, whose daughters also spoke against the proposal. “We would be promoting the idea that over-sexualization of women is acceptable in Lone Tree.” Council member Harold Anderson said Hooters’ record of liquor license infractions in Colorado is high and “almost embarrassing” to read.
Since 1999, 14 liquor license suspensions or citations were recorded in Colorado at 10 different restaurants owned by Weston’s Restaurants of America. The company owns several Colorado Hooters and Li’l Ricci restaurants. Weston defended it as “a very impressive record for as long as we’ve been in this state and the number of liquor licenses we have.” The planned Hooters building is within an area of Lone Tree the council zoned for sexually oriented businesses in 2013, after a Fascinations adult store tried to open in the Entertainment District. But Hoffman said that doesn’t come into play with Hooters. “It’s not relevant because this is not a sexually oriented business,” he said. Hooters has more than 430 locations in 28 countries.
and outpatient services. Those who work with seniors worry that’s a first step to totally redesigning the benefit to require more and more skin in the game. Future changes could mean much higher deductibles (it’s currently $147) and requiring beneficiaries to pay high out-of-pocket maximums before their Medigap insurance kicks in. A few years ago some proposals called for maximums in the $5,000 to $7,000 range. Those pushing for higher cost sharing for seniors cite an old study from the RAND Corp. that found when patients have to pay from their own pocketbooks, they don’t go to the doctor as often. The theory and the hope is that if Medicare and private supplement plans pay less and individuals have to pay more, healthcare costs will decrease.
But RAND also found patients couldn’t discriminate among necessary and unnecessary care. “You may see savings at the front end, but you’ll pick up the costs at the backend in emergency room use and more hospitalizations,” says Bonnie Burns, a policy specialist with California Health Advocates. What’s at issue here are future tax increases that may be necessary to fund Medicare, and powerful stakeholders like employers don’t want to pay them. In his blog post Douglas Holtz-Eakin, president of the American Action Forum, a center right policy institute, said the House bill fixes the doctor payment formula and introduces structural changes in Medicare, adding the two changes balance each other over the next 20 years “without raising taxes.”

Cuts to seniors and lower government payments to hospitals fund part of the doc fix. The rest of the tab is added to the deficit. Apparently it was a price many members of Congress who’ve railed for years against deficit spending were willing to pay to get what one senator called a “down payment” on entitlement reform.

Lawmakers pass Claire Davis bills By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Two bills supported by the family of Claire Davis, who was slain at Arapahoe High School in December 2013, have passed the state Legislature and now await the signature of Gov. John Hickenlooper to officially become law. Michael and Desiree Davis, Claire’s parents, released a statement thanking several state education associations and the Colorado Criminal Justice Committee for their willingness to negotiate support for the bills. “These groups started out opposing the measure, but were willing to work with us on amendments that improved the bill and allowed them to withdraw their opposition,” wrote the family. The Claire Davis School Safety Act, SB 213, will recognize the responsibility of schools to protect their students, faculty and staff from reasonably foreseeable acts of violence within school facilities and at school-sponsored events. The measure also provides a narrow definition of the circumstances in which a lawsuit could be brought against a school for breaching that responsibility and sets a cap on the damages that can be recovered. “The General Assembly acknowledges that times have changed in this country and in this state because there have been so many acts of school violence in which students and teachers have been killed and injured,” reads the bill. “Parents have a reasonable expectation that when they send their children to a public school that the school and its employees will have taken steps to keep the children safe.” The second bill, SB 214, creates a permanent committee on school safety and youth mental health and charges it with examining ways to improve how schools and the mental-health system deal with troubled youths. Both bills had bipartisan sponsorship, passing unanimously in the Senate and with just a handful of opponents in the House. Locally, Sen. Linda Newell, a Democrat, and Rep. Kathleen Conti, a Republican, each voted for them. “(This sends) a clear message to public educational entities that the status quo is no longer acceptable,” write Michael and Desiree Davis. “It’s time for our schools to change and evolve. It’s time to make our schools safer by helping kids in crisis.”

remain unchanged instead of dropping by about $36 a year. School board members say they haven’t yet decided if they will put the question to voters. In 2014, the Douglas County school board cited concerns about state funding as the reason to not put a local funding measure on the ballot. Board vice president Doug Benevento said at a February meeting he won’t support such a question until the state addresses its school finance formula. Littleton Public Schools is funded at almost the same dollar amount as DCSD. The state’s estimated 2015-16 per-pupil funding for LPS is $7,022.19. For DCSD, it’s $7020.08 — a difference of $2.11 per student. LPS is much smaller than DCSD, however. It serves about 15,000 students, compared to Douglas County’s 67,000.

go down by about $36 a year per homeowner. Larsen said he’s learned a great deal since 2010 about the state funding formula and how it interacts with the district’s budget. He also gained significant insight when the measure he pleaded for in 2010 later was defeated by voters. “If we don’t supplement our anorexic funding with some financial nutrition very soon, we are going to see a starving system with drastic consequences,” Larsen told the Douglas County School Board during its Feb. 16, 2010, meeting. “Keeping our schools strong, even if you don’t have a kid in them, keeps Douglas County a desirable place to live. The extra mill levy is a very small insurance premium for my property value and home equity.” Larsen pleaded for a united board to endorse the proposal. Though the board
Like Douglas County officials, Murphy is concerned about Littleton’s state funding, which is lower than that of most other metro-area districts. He’s been involved for years in trying to rectify the situation, and currently serves on the Colorado School Finance Project board that advises policymakers. Murphy, who will retire in June, said the formula doesn’t provide an equal playing field for all districts. “We are rapidly approaching the place where our funding doesn’t guarantee what the (Colorado) Constitution asks for, which is a thorough and uniform public education,” he said. “The gap between where we (the state) are in funding and the national average continues to get wider and wider.” Murphy said LPS sets those concerns aside for its schools, which rank among the highest-performing statewide and typically outperform DCSD. “We’re in a relatively conservative community,” he said. “But when it comes to the values they have, education is big. People come here because they want the education we provide in Littleton. They don’t want to see it sacrificed because of state funding.
“We can continue to lobby the state, but under its current structure of funding, I don’t believe they will ever have the money to keep up with what our community expects. “There comes a point where you can’t squeeze blood out of a turnip, when there isn’t money unless the community steps up.” LPS voters have never rejected a schoolfunding ballot question. In Douglas County, voters defeated such measures in 2008 and 2011. In pitching its 2013 measure to voters, Murphy said, “We put it in terms of, `What do you want your schools to be? What do you want your neighborhoods to look like? Do you want people saying, `I want to live here because this great facility is a great reflection of the programs you have inside?’” “We try to take the politics and ideology of tax increases out of it,” Murphy said. “We have people on the political spectrum on all kinds of issues. But when I go into a room, I still couldn’t tell you who’s a Democrat, Republican or independent. People here are the education party when I meet with them.”
eventually agreed to put the question on the November 2011 ballot, voters rejected a $200 million bond for capital improvements and a $20 million mill levy override to finance a pay-for-performance plan. He was elected to the board in 2011 and named president in 2013. “From the position I was in 2010 and where I am today, I know a lot more both in how the local and state interact, and what might and might not appeal to the community,” Larsen said. The Douglas County School District has not done any surveying to determine community support for a bond issue. “There’s expense in doing that and making sure it’s representative,” he said. “I think the first stage is to see what are all the ways we can increase revenue … and have we explored every option that may be a better deal to the taxpayer (than a bond).” Larsen acknowledged the board would need to decide soon whether to put a question on the fall ballot. “This November isn’t the only window of consideration,” he said. “I think we’ve got to
look at what we’re going to do in the long term for the district.” The school district also will benefit from property values that are rising as the economy improves. With those rising property values and accompanying increased tax revenue, Larsen sees “a very compelling case to make at the Legislature next year” for increasing school funding statewide and further reducing the negative factor. The negative factor is a recession-driven legislative cut to K-12 funding. Since 2010, it has reduced K-12 funding statewide by about $1 billion annually. Regardless of what does or doesn’t happen in November, Larsen said schools will be kept in good condition. “We’ve not had a boiler break. We’ve not had a roof get so leaky we can’t hold school,” he said. “We’re able to keep these schools safe and operating. We’re going to have the resources to do what’s necessary to keep our schools going this next year and even beyond that, while we continue looking at a longer-term approach to everything.”

Pickin’ chicken gets easier with Thrillist’s help

A Mother’s Day surprise
By Taryn Walker
twalker@colorado communitymedia.com Synergy HomeCare of Denver donated flowers to be delivered by Daisy Girl Scouts Troop 3933 and Boy Scouts from Troop 461 on May 9 at Orchard Park Health Care in Centennial. Children ages 5 to 8 went room-to-room hand-delivering colorful carnations to residents for Mother’s Day. Patients had just wrapped up lunch and were surprised by the cheerful greeting, as the event was called “Mother’s Day Surprise.” Synergy representative Kim Paul said the thought of seniors not having family with them for the holiday made her think of the idea. She teamed up with Orchard Park activities
assistant Karen Faust to organize the event and it was a success, both said. “We want to make sure our local moms aren’t forgotten this year,” Paul said. In a release about the event, Paul wrote, “A health and retirement study found that loneliness and isolation can increase depression, stress and raise blood pressure, and lead to premature death.” Troops were elated to see welcoming faces as they entered rooms. One resident, Mary Claire Alkford, who was sitting near her window when she was given her carnation, had fun trying to guess the ages of some of the Girl Scouts members. Troop members even prepared songs to sing before their delivery and practiced saying “Happy Mother’s Day” in their “quiet voices.”
Orchard Park Health Care resident Mary Claire Arkfeld admires her carnation after a surprise visit after lunch from a Girl Scout in Centennial.
Eight-year-old Boy Scout Eli Yetzer of Littleton giggles as he tries to pick out a song he’d like to sing while he delivers flowers to residents at Orchard Park Health Care in Centennial. Carnations were handed out to patients for Mother’s Day by Daisy Girl Scouts Troop 3933 and Boy Scout Troop 461 from SkyView Academy.
Here’s a best list I can get my beak around. Thrillist.com, the arbiter of all things “best” in Denver’s food world, has assembled a coop of 13 local eateries serving the best fried chicken, in the opinion of the Thrillist hipsters. And although fried chicken heads up my last meal wish list, I can’t say I have found a place yet that makes me want to scratch my way back over and over again. Lou’s FoodBar, mentioned first on the Thrillist list comes closest, but I am willing to try out the rest of the top chick picks to find a fave. Here’s what Thrillist said, “If good fried chicken were as easy to come by as it is to describe, there’d be a lot fewer vegetarians in the world. When it’s crunchy and well-seasoned on the outside yet tender and juicy on the inside, resistance is futile. But far too often, the skin is doughy or dripping grease or peeling off like a nasty scab while the meat is half-raw or dry and stringy. Then no one eats it, and everyone’s depressed that a bird had to die for nothing, and the herbivores win.” Fortunately, 13 places help preserve the integrity of the food chain by serving the best damn fried chicken in and around Denver. The list: Lou’s FoodBar, Sunnyside; Welton Street Cafe, Five Points; CoraFaye’s Cafe, Park Hill; African Grill & Bar, Green Valley Ranch; The Asian Cajun, Southwest Denver; Funny Plus, Aurora; Jamaican Grill, Santa Fe Art District; Kirk’s Soul Kitchen, Aurora; Jus Cookin’s Restaurant, Lakewood; Jezebel’s Southern Bistro & Bar, LoHi; The BSide, Uptown; Block & Larder, Berkeley; The Post Brewing Co., Lafayette. And assorted special mentions. Check out the whole story at www. thrillist.com/eat/denver/the-best-friedchicken-in-denver.
Blues show hits the big 3-0
“Blues from the Red Rooster Lounge,” heard Sunday nights from 9 to 10 p.m. on 97.3 KBCO, celebrates its 30th anniversary this month. Producer Cary Wolfson, aka the Red Rooster, came to Boulder in the early ’70s, beginning his radio career at local community Boulder radio station KGNU. He served as a DJ, music director and director of the station’s radio training program. While possessed of wildly eclectic musical knowledge, Cary made his mark on behalf of the blues, the bedrock of most of America’s best popular music. He helped found KGNU’s still-running “Blues Legacy,” where he created the character of the Red Rooster, a music-loving hipster who spins the hottest and duskiest discs. In May 1985, Wolfson moved the program to 97.3 KBCO. Soon, the program was picked up by the Longhorn Radio Network, which distributed it to a small group of stations scattered around the country. Produced for KBCO every week, today “Blues from the Red Rooster Lounge” can also be heard on stations around the country.

REVIEW
With shades of Gray, Marshall Tucker Band still has it
By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com
They came. They saw. They Southern rocked the joint. Anyone who thought they were going to see the Allman Brothers Band’s less-talented cousin at the Parker Arts, Culture and Events Center May 7 and 8 was quickly proven wrong in the first few songs. The Marshall Tucker Band might have only one original member left — growling lead singer Doug Gray — but the cast called up to fill in the gaps over the years showed themselves capable of fulfilling legendary shoes. Guitarist Chris Hicks practically stole the show with a frenzy of scorching leads and controlled soul-grit vocals, earning a standing ovation May 8 for one haunting, unaccompanied performance under a quiet spotlight. Flautist-saxophonist-keyboardist Marcus James Henderson injected a youthful spark of energy with his foot-stomping solos, and he presented with precision the smile-inducing flute lead on “Heard It In a Love Song,” one of the band’s most wellknown hits. The group made no apologies for its oldfashioned ways. Gray told stories from the road and joked with younger-looking audience members about certain songs coming out before they were born. The six-member Marshall Tucker Band drew a more boisterous crowd than the PACE Center is accustomed to. They stood and screamed when the mood struck, even if those around them weren’t doing the same, and shouted between songs, including one man who loudly declared his last time seeing the band was in Florida in 1979, to which Gray replied that both he and the yeller were probably too inebriated to remember details. The high-energy set was catapulted into orbit when Hicks and guitarist Rick Willis churned out interweaving guitar solos, at one point harmonizing sweetly and bringing people to their feet. But as with any show, the May 8 install-
Doug Gray, lead singer of The Marshall Tucker Band, greets a front-row fan during the Southern-rock group’s May 8 set at the PACE Center. Photo by Chris Michlewicz ment wasn’t without its hiccups. The rhythm section charged through minor timing snafus, and a handful of solos ran too long. Gray shied away from the tougher notes by pointing the microphone at the audience and, at times, he deferred to his sidemen to sing tunes he once sang (they all did a fantastic job). Gray’s attempts at vocal complexity on the ballad “Georgia Moon” sounded weathered, and he occasionally stood back and simply watched the band play without him.
But the front man still performs 200 nights per year after 44 illustrious years with the same band, an impressive feat by anyone’s standard. Besides, Gray’s rapport with the crowd and ability to tell a good story, including one about being in a studio while the Bee Gees were recording the “Saturday Night Fever” soundtrack, kept everyone loose. The Southern-rock gods banged out explosive sets on consecutive nights after the first one on the calendar quickly sold out.
The second show came complete with the favorites — “Can’t You See,” “Heard It In a Love Song,” “Fire On The Mountain” and “Take The Highway” — leaving no one disappointed. Near the end of the two-hour set, Gray remarked on the friendliness of the crowd in a town with which he wasn’t previously familiar. “I wasn’t sure where Parker was, but I (am) now,” he said.

Vista beats Arapahoe when it counts Munro’s four goals spark a 9-5 playoff win By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com For the past two seasons, Arapahoe has kept the Mountain Vista boys lacrosse team from advancing in the Class 5A state playoffs. The Golden Eagles finally turned the tables on their nemesis on May 9, earning a 9-5 quarterfinal decision over the Warriors in a Class 5A lacrosse quarterfinal game at Legacy Stadium. Arapahoe, which has won three state titles, edged Mountain Vista 12-11 in last season’s quarterfinals, and the Warriors ousted the Golden Eagles in the first round of the 2013 playoffs by a score of 15-9. “Arapahoe is a great team, and they’ve always kind of been a thorn in our side the last two years,” said Vista coach Jake Herman. “We’d get up on them and all of a sudden they climb, scratch and claw back. That’s a testimony to how good their staff is, and those kids are resilient kids. It felt good to win. It was a year in the making after losing last year in the quarterfinals.” Warriors coach Guy Cerasoli noted that Vista played hard. “They were about due,” he said. “They were playing with a chip on their shoulders, that’s for sure.” Key moments: Arapahoe, which trailed 4-1 at halftime, pulled to within 5-3 with 5:22 left in the third period, but Vista scored the next four goals to grab a six-goal lead. Sophomore Colin Munro scored three of
Arapahoe’s Will Danuser (9) hits the turf and Mountain Vista’s Demetri Kambietz (6) is waiting to scoop up the ball. Mountain Vista went on to win 9-5 over the Warriors in the 5A quarterfinal at Legacy Stadium on May 9.
Mountain Vista’s Colin Munro, center, has Arapahoe’s Tanner Sparks, left, and Lou Sugo closing in but still manages to pass the ball. Munro led all scorers with four goals in the 5A quarterfinal as Mountain Vista won 9-5. Photos by Paul DiSalvo those four goals. “We have a lot of good talent on this team,” said Munro. “Against Arapahoe I stepped up. In other games Christian Barker stepped up or Bryan Hancock stepped up. Whoever is feeling it that day or has a matchup that day, we’re going to ride that person.” Key players/statistics: Munro had four goals, Barker three and Hancock two for the
Eagles (16-1-0), who whipped Arapahoe 13-7 in the final game of the regular season Brian Wilson and Tanner Sparks each had two goals for the Warriors, which finished the season with a 10-6-0 record. This will be only the third time in the past nine seasons that an Arapahoe team will not be in the state semifinals. They said it: “We’re on a mission,” said
Herman. “We knew this was a game we really needed to win to kind of make up for last year. You want to finish the year strong. We’re not done yet.” “We have made it to the semifinals every year that I’ve been here,” added Cerasoli. “I’m a little disappointed. It’s been kind of an underachieving year. We had the potential, but we just couldn’t put it together for some reason.” Going forward: Mountain Vista will probably again play with a chip on its shoulder for a semifinal match against Regis Jesuit on May 13. Vista’s only loss this season was a 13-7 setback to Regis.
Grizzlies advance with win over Warriors ThunderRidge makes it to the girls lacrosse quarterfinals By Chase Ellis cellis@coloradocommunitymedia.com ThunderRidge and Arapahoe met on May 8 in the second round of the girls lacrosse state tournament with matching 12-3 regular-season records, but Arapahoe received a No. 5 seed compared with ThunderRidge’s No. 12 seed. That meant the Grizzlies entered the tournament feeling slighted. Coach Kelsi Goings had one simple message to her team: “Prove that you are not a 12 seed.” ThunderRidge responded with a 13-9 victory. Both teams started fast, with two goals each way in the first two minutes before the defenses settled. ThunderRidge trailed 4-3 with 12 minutes to play in the first half then went on a 7-1 run to close the half with a 10-5 lead. After halftime, ThunderRidge improved its lead to 12-6 before going scoreless for 14
Alexis Linhardt spins between two ThunderRidge defenders before firing home a goal that cut Arapahoe’s deficit to three goals late in the second half of a 13-9 loss to ThunderRidge. Photo by Chase Ellis minutes of play. Keeping Arapahoe at bay during the scoreless stretch was sophomore goalie Jordan Moilanen, who made seven of her 10 saves
in the second half, including an impressive reflex save that started a counter-attack with the Grizzlies clinging to a 12-8 lead. Key moments: The Grizzlies seemed to
be heading to the half with an 8-5 lead before Kirsten Greenlaw scored two goals in the final 31 seconds of the half to extend the lead to 10-5. Moilanen recorded seven second-half saves, including a save from a shot from Arapahoe’s Alexis Linhardt that would have cut the Grizzlies lead to three with four-anda-half minutes to play. Key players/statistics: Greenlaw finished with five goals and an assist, and Meghan Gordon scored three goals as she played a relentless game in all aspects. Moilanen recorded 10 saves in goal, including seven in the second half, as she energized her team from between the pipes. They said it: Goings spoke about her goalie after the win, and said Moilanen “keeps stepping up to every challenge. As a sophomore, I am so incredibly proud of her leadership. For her to have a game like that, especially in the state tournament, is amazing for us.” Going forward: ThunderRidge (13-3) was scheduled to face No. 4-seed Denver East (12-4) in the quarterfinals on May 13 with a chance to advance to the semifinals, which will be played on May 16.

Erik Peters was in goal for the Jaguars. Again, unofficially, he made 12 saves.

SALOME’S STARS FOR RELEASE WEEK OF MAY 11, 2015
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A seemingly stalled romantic situation could benefit from your reassurance that you want this relationship to work. And if you do, use a tad more of that irresistible Aries charm. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Going to new places and meeting new people appeals to both the Taurean’s romantic and practical sides. After all, you never can tell where those new contacts can take you. Right? GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) That career-change opportunity that didn’t work out when you first considered it could come up again. But this time, remember that you have more to offer and should act accordingly.

GALLERY OF GAMES
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) There could be some tensions in relationships -- domestic or workaday. But a calm approach that doesn’t raise the anger levels and a frank discussion soon will resolve the problem. LEO (July 23 to August 22) It’s a good idea to begin preparing for that career change you’ve been thinking about for a while. Start to sharpen your skills and expand your background to be ready when it calls. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Bless that Virgo skepticism that has kept you from falling into traps others seem to rush into. But you might want to give a new possibility the benefit of the doubt, at least on a trial basis. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Travel and career are strong in your aspect. Perhaps your job will take you to someplace exotic. Or you might be setting up meetings with potential clients or employers. Whatever it is, good luck. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Someone might use deception to try to push you into making a decision you’re not fully comfortable with. But those keen Scorpio senses should keep you alert to any such attempt. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Romance dominates this week when Cupid spears the Archer, for a change. Positive things also are happening in the workplace. Expect important news to arrive by the week’s end. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Anyone trying to bully the Sea Goat -- whether it involves a personal or a professional matter -- will learn a painful lesson. Others also will benefit from the Goat’s strong example. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Congratulations. With things going the way they are, you should be able to spare some time and take a break from your hectic schedule for some well-earned fun and games. PISCES (February 19 to March 21) Your sharp Piscean intuition should be able to uncover the true agendas of those who might be trying to catch the Fish in one of their schemes. BORN THIS WEEK: Your flair for innovative art and design keeps you at least a step ahead of most everyone else. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

Freshman leads Chaparral over Rock Canyon Eliot Edwards scores winner in double-overtime victory By Jim Benton
Jbenton@Colorado CommunityMedia.com Reggie Jackson was given the nickname Mr. October for his clutch hitting for the Oakland Athletics and New York Yankees in the postseason. Eliot Edwards is Ms. May for the Chaparral girls soccer team. Edwards, a freshman, scored the gamewinning goal as the 23rd-seeded Wolverines upset 10th-seeded Ralston Valley, 2-1, in overtime during the first round of the Class 5A state playoffs. Then, Edwards once again came through with the goal off an assist by Malak Rafik with 8:06 left in the second overtime in a 2-1 second round triumph over seventhseeded Rock Canyon on May 8 at Sports Authority Stadium. “I guess things are just going my way,” Edwards said. “I just happened to be the person that was there. It was a great ball by Malak. The last goal against Ralston Valley was caused by Tori (Bernabei) and it was right in front of me. So it’s not just me.” Key moments: Rock Canyon’s Alex Vidger pushed Rock Canyon into a 1-0 lead with a goal in the 17th minute but the senior midfielder injured her knee and didn’t play after she was hurt with 11 minutes left in
