RIDING ON THE TRAILS

Nurse transforms lives on ship Jenica Gammie’s work on the Africa Mercy helps patients from the outside in By Anna Sheffer

Special to Colorado Community Media Off the coast of west Africa, doctors and nurses are making a difference. Aboard the Africa Mercy, part of the organization Mercy Ships, volunteer doctors and nurses perform surgeries on patients who cannot afford health care. And they do it all for free. Jenica Gammie, of Centennial, served as a nurse aboard the Africa Mercy for nine months beginning in August 2013. Gammie first heard about Mercy Ships in elementary school and became interested in the program. “That was just always my end goal for becoming a nurse,” Gammie said. Gammie worked for three years as a nurse before joining the Africa Mercy. She lived on the third floor of the ship, where all the nurses lived and where many of the operations took place. She described it as the shortest commute to work she has ever had. Gammie worked in the A ward, where patients underwent operations as diverse as the removal of fatty tumors, cleft palate reparations and hernia reparations. As an ER nurse by training, Gam-

mie had never worked in a surgery ward before, so the experience was a new one. And for Gammie, that new experience turned out to be transformative. Gammie said she enjoyed working with the patients and giving them new hope for their futures. “It was really cool to have them onboard and show them that they are important and have something to give to this world,” she said. “Many of the patients on the Africa Mercy arrived as shy individuals who had been shunned by their communities, and they left having gained confidence and having healed on the outside as well as the inside.” Alisteria, or Alice, of Uganda, came to the Africa Mercy as it docked off of the coast of the Congo to have severe burns on the right side of her face treated. Alice had three reconstructive surgeries during her time on board, but the emotional transformation she underwent was equally amazing. Gammie said when she first arrived on the ship, Alice would not make eye contact with anyone, but by the end of her time there, she played with Gammie and spent a lot of time around her. Encouraging the patients on the ship was one way in which nursing on the Africa Mercy differs from nursing in the U.S. “Nursing over there is not just giving meds and dressing wounds,” Gammie said. “It’s [also] about showing kids what glitter glue is and making crowns with them.”

Centennial native Jenica Gammie served as a nurse on the Africa Mercy for nine months beginning in August 2013. Here, she is shown with Alisteria, a patient aboard the ship. Courtesy photo Working for the Africa Mercy had its challenges though. Since the ship can only help patients whose medical conditions can be fixed surgically, many people had to be turned away. For Gammie, explaining to potential patients that she could not help them was the hardest part of her work onboard. Gammie is determined to help those she can though. “I’ve come to realize that

it’s a place I will always come back to to help,” she said. Gammie will rejoin the Africa Mercy at the beginning of August and head to Benin for three months. Gammie’s experience with the Africa Mercy has helped her realize how blessed she is to have the opportunities she does, and that everyone has worth. “Everyone matters,” she said. “It’s something I’ve always known, but it really hit home.”

Nancy Cronk knows she’s got some lost time to make up for, but she’s hoping she can reclaim Spencer Swalm’s House District 37 seat for the Democrats. Marlo Alston was the original name in play for the Democrats, but she dropped out due to a family emergency. “Everybody kind of looked at me and said, `We need somebody with a wide network who can throw their hat in today,’ and then they just stared at me,” she said to explain her sudden appearance on the ballot. Cronk will face off against local businessman and Republican nominee Jack Tate, also a Centennial resident, in the Nov. 4 general election. The winner will replace the termlimited Swalm and represent the district that is primarily made up of east Centennial. S h e ’ s been active with the party and in the community for years, serving as precinct chair and volunteering in Democrat Nancy Cronk is running for House District her kids’ 37, the seat being vacated by term-limited Republican schools in Spencer Swalm. Photo by Jennifer Smith the Cherry Creek School District. She’s currently serving her second term on the elected board of the Cunningham Fire District. She and her husband, Dr. Saul Greenhut, have lived in their Centennial home near Smoky Hill Road and Orchard Avenue for 20 years, and their kids are all now in college. “It’s my community, it’s my home, and think I can make good decisions based on knowing what families here want,” she said. Her first priority is safety, she said, especially in light of her home’s proximity to several recent south-metro tragedies, including the shootings at Arapahoe High School and the Aurora theater. “You can’t even talk about excellent schools and how much our jobs are paying if our houses are burning down,” she said. “Floods, wildfires, shootings — these things take money, and these things have to be funded first.” Next up are supporting teachers and funding for education. “We have to bring teachers to the table, and we have to listen to them,” she said. “They are the experts in education, and I’m personally offended when somebody who is not an educator tries to run the school system.” She also wants to focus on small business. “We need a level playing field to compete with larger business,” she said. “We need to encourage nontraditional business owners, like women and minorities, to set up shop in Arapahoe County.” Her social views generally concur with traditional Democratic values, but with a slightly nontraditional twist. Raised a Christian, she converted to Judaism as a young adult. Understanding the plight of other couples that couldn’t marry in a church or synagogue, she became an ordained interfaith officiant and today performs ceremonies for all sorts of diverse couples, including civil unions for those of the same-sex variety. “I care about compassion and justice and equality,” she said. “I’m not so concerned about a label.”

South metro’s beer mug runneth over Two more microbreweries added to fast-growing list By Jane Reuter

jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com Two more craft breweries recently joined the fast-expanding family of south metro beer makers. Three Freaks Brewery opened in early June at Quebec Street and County Line Road in Highlands Ranch. And also in northern Douglas County, Living the Dream opens July 12 off Highlands Ranch Parkway and South Santa Fe Drive. “It’s exciting for everybody that lives out here and wants to enjoy a quality, craft beer,” said Three Freaks owner Jeff Atencio. “I only hope we can live up to the same standards of those that were here before us. I’m excited to be part of it.” The two tasting rooms opened just weeks behind neighboring breweries Blue Spruce in Centennial and 38 State in Littleton. Highlands Ranch’s Grist, which opened in late 2013, led the recent spate of microbrewery openings. “We’re all around the same size, all in the same stages, going through all of the growing pains together,” said Living the Dream co-owner Carrie Knose, who sees the convergence of small brewers as a plus for all. “It’s almost like Napa,” she said. “It’s the experience of going to different locations and trying different beers. You can go somewhere, do a sampler tray and say, `Let’s go down the road and do Three Freaks or Grist or Lone Tree.’” Most of the tasting rooms are in off-thebeaten-path locations, and some — like Lone Tree and Living the Dream — are tucked into strip developments among industrial neighbors. “That goes with the nature of the business,” Knose said. “Breweries typically are in industrial areas. We happen to be manufac-

turing a very likable product. It makes it almost like a scavenger hunt to find them.” To help beer lovers in their quest, south metro brewery owners are together working to start a microbrewery tour bus. “It’s almost as though as soon as you make your way up Santa Fe, you’ve entered the beer valley,” Atencio said. “What’s nice about the craft beer community is we’re not looking at somebody who’s out for a buzz. We’re looking at somebody who’s enjoying the beer and appreciating the style.” With so many breweries, “I think we’re looking at a situation where the (breweries) will attempt to challenge each other to make great beers. I’m pretty sure we’re going to see some very healthy, friendly competition. The consumer is going to benefit from that.”

Three Freaks

Three Freaks is located in a strip mall just off one of Highlands Ranch’s busiest highway interchanges, and directly backing to the C-470 bicycle trail. A longtime Highlands Ranch resident, Atencio determined long before he found the space that his business would be in Highlands Ranch. He wasn’t aiming for an easy commute. Atencio is sold on the taste of the area’s water, which he sees as key to making great-tasting beer. As a former South Metro Fire inspector and 27-year home brewer, Atencio knows a thing or two about water and beer making. “I’ve been brewing with the water in Highlands Ranch for many years,” he said. “So we’re using the same stuff now we did our homework with. That helps me to identify what we’re looking for as far as the taste. It’s been a benefit to us, and hopefully something the beer drinker can identify with.” Part of Atencio’s new job includes studying his customers’ responses to his products, and trying to ascertain what strikes the deepest chord. “The Lucky Clover (red) has been very popular,” he said. “The stout is very strong but hasn’t overtaken the red.

Photo by Jane Reuter Standing Belgian on certain evenings is the most popular; that kind of came as a bit of a surprise. So far, it’s been pretty equal among the three.” Like Living the Dream, 38 State and Blue Spruce, Atencio encountered stumbling blocks that pushed back the planned opening date of his five-barrel tasting room. “But now, we’re open,” he said. “I’m excited about looking forward, and the opportunity for us to be able to just make some fun, exciting beers.” Three Freaks is located at 7140 E. County Line Road. For more information, visit www.3freaksbrewery.com.

Living the Dream

Knose and partner Jason Bell will peel open the rolling garage doors of their sevenbarrel microbrewery July 12, with five beers on tap. The words Knose uses to describe them are enough to make even a non-beer lover salivate. The cream stout is modeled after a white Russian cocktail using “rum, vanilla, chocolate and coffee.” “I added in peanut butter to give it a nice, organic nutty background,” she said. “Our South Island Wit … is very citrusy. It screams summer.” The tasting room, meanwhile, is designed

to scream Colorado. Knose and Bell chose the name to reflect their love of the state and its lifestyle, using cast-aside skis and wood to decorate the space. “Most of us love to ski, climb, mountain bike, backpack, kayak,” said Knose, a former ski instructor. “We wanted to bring that whole outdoor Colorado theme into our taproom.” Like Three Freaks, the microbrewery just south of Littleton backs to a bicycle trail, in this case the High Line Canal. The location is a natural tie-in to Knose’s and Bell’s love of the Colorado lifestyle, and makes a summer opening ideal, she said. “We would have opened a few months ago according to plan,” Knose said. “But I think the timing is really good, especially with the bike-ability.” Knose got her start in the industry working for Samuel Adams in Ohio. The company hosts an annual employee home brewing contest, and gave its employees home brew kits, which hooked Knose on the craft. Bell also is a longtime home brewer. While Living the Dream is starting small, Knose said they already have plans and connections for future distribution. Living the Dream is located at 12305 Dumont Way.

Littleton Village work in motion Council approves final site plan for old Marathon land By Jennifer Smith jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com For the first time in the 14 years it has been empty, the activity level is set to rise on the old Marathon site in the coming weeks, after Littleton City Council approved the final site plan on July 1. “The negotiations (with the city) have been frustrating,” said Michael Downes, managing director at Watt Investment Partners. “The developer made the decision (June 25) to stop negotiating and accept what was on the table. The developer is very ready to get started.” Some work has already occurred, with the guard shack, most of the trees and even the longstanding, forlorn-looking metal Christmas tree all having been removed from the 77-acre site at Broadway and Dry Creek Road, near the border with Centennial. Watt plans to build 250,000 square feet of commercial property and up to 900 residential units. The west side of Littleton Village will be oriented toward Broadway, with boutique shops in front, and medium-size boxes — like Kohl’s or a grocery store — behind. In the middle will be a park and two apartment buildings, limited to no more than four stories. Single-family homes will fill the east side, backing up to the existing residential neighborhood. It’s basically the same plan approved after a substantial amount of public debate in 2006, which went into suspended animation after the economy crashed. It is, however, a different drainage plan,

which has caused some concern, but city staff says it’s the plan they and Urban Drainage and Flood Control originally wanted. The 2006 plan called for two-thirds of the runoff to go north up Broadway to Little’s Creek and the rest to go south to Lee Gulch. That would have required the city to maintain 3,500 feet of pipe, with the possibility of running it underneath the High Line Canal. The new plan sends it all to Lee Gulch. The city will only have to maintain 800 feet of pipe, with the rest being buried on the site. Engineers for both the city and the developer said that can be achieved without raising historic flow rates via a detention pond on the property, and the floodplain limit won’t be affected. Charlie Blosten, the city’s director of public works, said the overall effect will be a 5 percent increase in water that flows through Lee Gulch each year, and a 5 percent reduction in Little’s Creek. The deal includes $100,000 from Watt for improvements to Lee Gulch. Councilman Jerry Valdes, the sole vote against the plan, wondered if that was enough. “Well, $100,000 won’t do everything forever, but it will sure do a lot more than what we’re doing now,” replied Blosten. The city also agreed to pay for about $819,000 in public improvements for things like street lights and medians on Broadway and Dry Creek. The developer will be paying the city’s newly implemented impact fees, designed to ensure growth pays for itself. Littleton Village could potentially pay roughly $3.8 million to support things like emergency services, the museum and the library.

Lawsuit tackles K-12 negative factor By Vic Vela

vvela@colorado communitymedia.com A lawsuit alleges that a mechanism that has been used by the state to slash education funding by about $1 billion is uncon-

stitutional — the latest development in an ongoing battle over how K-12 dollars are appropriated. The lawsuit, which was filed in Denver District Court on June 27, argues that the state’s use of the socalled “negative factor” to

control education funding violates constitutional language that was put in place by voters through Amendment 23. The 2000 provision requires that annual education funding increase by the rate of inflation and enrollment growth. But in 2010, on the heels of a recession, state lawmakers created the negative factor in response to budget realities facing the

state. Those who support the use of the negative factor say it’s important to fund education at high levels, but that the requirements of Amendment 23 are burdensome and can impact budgets for other areas of state spending. But the lawsuit claims that had the Legislature not created the negative factor, K-12 funding would have been restored to 1988 levels by now — which

was the primary goal of Amendment 23. “The... negative factor and resulting funding restrictions are causing irreparable harm to students, districts and educational organizations across our state,” the lawsuit reads. Plaintiffs point out that since the adoption of the negative factor, per-pupil funding has “dramatically” decreased and hasn’t come

close to the funding levels that voters approved in 2000. The Legislature did backfill $110 million in education funding this year, in an effort to bring down the negative factor.

$500 million. The legal team behind the lawsuit includes Kathleen Gebhardt of Children’s Voices, an education advocacy group. Gebhardt was the lead attorney in the recent Lobato v. State of Colorado lawsuit that claimed that Colorado was failing to adequately fund or properly disperse funding to school districts in the state. The Lobato lawsuit ended in 2013,

when the state Supreme Court ruled that the state’s educational funding system was constitutional. The plaintiffs consist of school districts that include the Boulder Valley School District and Colorado Springs School District No. 11. Other educational organizations and a group of parents are also listed as plaintiffs. The state of Colorado, Gov. John Hickenlooper and Education Commissioner Robert Hammond are named as defendants in the case. The new lawsuit will be defended by the state Attorney General’s Office.

Dr. Oz is no wizard, but you are If you read this column today, I guarantee that you will lose at least five pounds. Half of all of the programs on television are about eating, half are about dieting and the other half are talk shows, like Dr. Oz’s. Dr. Oz went to Washington in mid-June and he was grilled by senators who were displeased with his miracle weight-loss claims. One senator said, “I don’t know why you need to say this stuff when you know it’s not true.” Money, honey. Dr. Oz (real name Mehmet Cengiz Oz) is highly respected, but not, it turns out, by everyone. He sounds fine and convincing. Kind of like an evangelist. I don’t trust evangelists, do you? I see thousands in the audience, and my imagination turns them all into sheep, and each one of them is holding up

a Visa card. The Food Network shows you exactly how to pig out: It’s now showing reruns of “Man v. Food,” because the host quit. Good for him. Adam Richman, a glutton from Brooklyn, ate appalling amounts of food in restaurants. He gained a lot of weight and became depressed. I’ve always wondered how the program

That’s no problem, that’s an opportunity If you are like me, you have probably been faced with situations or people in your life that could be considered difficult at best, and yes, maybe even a challenge. Situations or events in our lives that could be considered difficult or challenging could range anywhere from health crises, loss of loved ones, unemployment, rebellious children, addiction, expensive auto repairs, household bills, and many other things. People in our lives who seem to test us on a regular basis, if not every single day, include gossips, conceited ego-driven folks, people who seem to bring drama with them anywhere and everywhere they go, and those who are stubborn, narrow-minded, or hypocritical. I mean, we are surrounded by challenges and challenging people all the time as we try and navigate our lives at work, school, or at home. Or are we? I think that in some cases we are not surrounded by them accidentally. I think we choose to surround ourselves with people who bring the drama and conflicts. We make a conscious decision to stay associated with people in our lives for any number of reasons. They could be family, they just might be someone we have known all of our lives and we accept them and love them for who they are, or we just love the tension or excitement that they bring to every event or meeting. In many of the challenging or difficult situations as mentioned above like a health crisis, unemployment, or loss of a loved one, I believe there are people who

rise to the occasion and cope as best as they possibly can. I am so encouraged by the emails I receive every day from people who share their hearts and positive attitude as they struggle with things out of their control. You all amaze me and I am proud of you. In tragic and dark situations there is no doubt that we all experience feelings of sadness. Yet I am always astounded when goodness surfaces in the times of trouble. I love the stories of people who have lost a loved one and then find an opportunity to volunteer in an area that was meaningful to the person they lost. And the stories of the unemployed who take the opportunity to develop new skills or learn a new trade, maybe even finally pursue a career that they have a passion for instead of what they settled for. And the news of a family facing a health crisis or addiction problem behind closed doors who seek and find the opportunity to rally together to support one another physically, emotionally and spiritually, further unifying or reuniting the family. And as far as the company we keep Norton continues on Page 9

goes over in Haiti, Burundi and Angola. Since quitting, Richman has lost 60 pounds. If you are overweight and you want to lose weight, you might listen to almost anyone say almost anything. Oscar Wilde said, “Everything in moderation, including moderation.” I wish I could do it, but I can’t. I do everything obsessively, even this column. I write one, two, three columns every day. The paper prints one a week. I have two large art exhibitions coming up months from now. I have been nearly finished for months. I think artists are supposed to be up all night the night before an exhibition. Obesity in America is in the news every day. But, like I said, half of the shows on Marshall continues on Page 9

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR This time it is different?

When the crash of 2008 loomed over us and another depression was threatening many, if not most people, thought that it wasn’t like the Great Depression, that this time things were different and it couldn’t happen again. Such is the understanding of the human mind that most do not grasp the concept of cause and effect. Littleton’s city set up an Urban Renewal Authority back in 1983 and used imminent domain to take property to increase economic development. They issued a TIF (tax incremental financing) to invest city money in a project known as River Front — which lost $17 million for the bondholders, $22 million for the developer and $12 million for the city. Now that same property is considered blighted so that the same process can be done on the same property again… this time it is different. This time it will work? Betty Harris Littleton

Great clarity in story

I feel compelled to write to commend Vic Vela on his article “Judge upholds state’s gun laws” in last week’s paper. His point-counterpoint-ruling format provided great clarity on the issue and ruling. Too often proposed legislation is written with so much complexity — with double and triple negatives — that an individual is hardpressed to recognize our own position on it. The resulting chaos can hardly be considered an adequately representative vote. I also want to note that Weld County Sheriff John Cooke deserves to be immediately relieved of office for his intention to perform his duties based on his political agenda rather than on the basis of law.

July 11, 2014

Immigration deadlock is political failure In the current combative, partisan environment in Washington, compromise and cooperation are rare occurrences. That is even more evident following House Speaker John Boehner’s recent announcement that the House will not act on immigration reform this year. On June 27, 2013, more than a year ago, the Senate passed a bipartisan bill to fix our broken immigration system. We wrote the bill as a part of the Group of 8, which included Republican Sens. Marco Rubio, John McCain, Jeff Flake, and Lindsey Graham. It also included Democratic Sens. Chuck Schumer, Dick Durbin and Robert Menendez. The bill passed the Senate with nearly 70 votes. We put politics aside in order to produce this commonsense bill, and it has the support of countless organizations. The bill would strengthen our economy, secure our borders, reform guest-worker programs,

establish a rational system for the future flow of immigrants, and provide a tough but fair path to citizenship for the millions of people living in the shadows. Specifically, the border security provisions include unprecedented measures to double the number of border agents, complete 700 miles of fencing, and utilize new technology to provide 100 percent surveillance. The new guest-worker program would increase the number of visas

for workers specializing in high-tech industries and streamline the H-2A visa system for agriculture workers. According to a report from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, it would also decrease the deficit by $197 billion in the first 10 years and by $700 billion over the following decade. Perhaps most importantly, this bill was largely crafted with the help of Coloradans from every region, industry, and background. We spoke with farmers who are forced to watch their crops wither and die on the vine because they can’t hire the workers they need to harvest them. We met with the members of the state’s ski resorts and tourist industries who are struggling with an unworkable visa system for seasonal workers. The state’s rapidly growing reputation as a hub for high-tech innovation is continuously threatened as we watch our best and bright-

est — educated in our schools — sent back to their native countries to compete against us. We have also heard from thousands of young DREAMers, many of whom were brought here without their knowledge and know no other country but the United States. The success of the Group of 8 is proof that compromise and cooperation are possible — even for this Congress. Unfortunately, the House does not seem to understand the critical need to fix our broken immigration system. The House’s refusal to act has already cost us $13 billion in revenue the bill would have brought. With every day that goes by another harvest season passes, another family is torn apart, another talented student returns to their native country, and another opportunity is lost to fix our broken immigration system. Democrat Michael Bennet has represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate since 2009.

Culture, not politics, drives big decisions My service in the Colorado House of Representatives is now nearly over, both because of term limits and my desire to move on to other things. An important lesson that my time in public office has taught me is that culture is the dog that wags the tail of politics. That is, in a democracy such as ours, and except in unusual circumstances, politicians are not much more than order takers, doing what their constituents tell them to do. During my tenure, this truism was routinely drilled into us with this ominous maxim: “If you don’t represent your district, someone else will.” And what do those constituents tell their elected officials to do? What the culture, with its powerful, nearly omnipresent tools, teaches voters is important — and needs to be done. Hence, culture the dog, politics the tail. Is this a bad thing? No, it’s democracy. Which, as Winston Churchill once said, is “the worst form of government — except all the others”. But this reality places a heavy burden on our culture, i.e. entertainment: movies, TV, gaming, pop music, etc. And what do Americans learn from their culture? For one, sex. One of my favorite movies, “Blast From the Past”, tells the seriously funny story of a latter-day Adam who emerges from the bomb shelter where he

was born 35 years earlier because his eccentric scientist father mistakenly believed the Cuban missile crisis resulted in a nuclear holocaust that wiped out LA. While Adam is growing up, literally and figuratively sheltered, the neat suburban neighborhood that his parents remember just above their heads has been scraped to make way for porn shops, bars and androgynous prostitutes. As the innocent Adam looks around in stunned disbelief, the song “Pretty Babies” throbs in the background: “Everything about the world is sex / And it’s a message of popular culture. / Telling all our children how to do it right. / And all through their innocence you may ask yourself why? / Why the need? / Why the need to eroticize our children? / How they’re ready. / Oh our pretty babies. / Oh how they’re not ready.” Yes, “Blast from the Past’s” boy-gets-girl

plot is predictable. The closing scene portrays Adam and his new wife, Eve, beginning life anew in an Edenic country oasis, with Adam’s parents finally joining them from the bomb shelter. But what the movie, in its lighthearted way, celebrates, the “popular culture” overwhelmingly denigrates as hopelessly old-fashioned: sex within the bounds of a committed marriage, families caring for one another, faith, and even good manners. Is it ironic that I choose a Hollywood movie to illustrate what that culture is teaching my constituents about sex? Not really. First, “Blast from the Past” is the exception that proves the rule. Second, this is a family newspaper. And, as such, inappropriate for the many hair-curling examples that could have demonstrated what that culture far more frequently celebrates in the way of perverted sex, family disintegration, mayhem, ignorance and foul language. So were my eight years in the Legislature (six of which were in the minority) an exercise in futility? No. Politicians can do some good — at the margins. But for a conservative to turn around our sluggish ship of a state is difficult, at best. Especially when

government so often rewards, rather than penalizes, what popular culture preaches. So where do I turn from here if politics isn’t the answer but I want to make a difference in a counter-cultural way? For me, it will be the “little platoons” that Edmund Burke, the father of conservative thought, wrote of in his 1790 essay, “Reflections on the Revolution in France.” By “little platoons,” Burke meant those countless civic organizations made up of citizens who volunteer their services to fill unmet societal needs. Many inculcate those “old-fashioned” virtues, so badly needed by our nation — rather than another government program. Perhaps, for me, it means a deeper level of involvement in my church or the Boy Scouts. I’m not sure yet. But I’m looking forward to finding out. Because this time, it’s personal. My wife and I are eagerly anticipating the birth of our first grandchild this summer. The need to be more than a flea on the back of the dog that wags the tail is more urgent than ever. State Rep. Spencer Swalm serves House District 37, which includes east Centennial.

and circles we travel in, it is really up to us to find the opportunity to separate ourselves from the toxic or poison people in our lives, or to look for the good in each relationship and use that as a springboard and opportunity to deepen those relationships, again accepting those we truly love for their unique, troublesome, quarrelsome and cynical personalities.

television focus on eating. The same goes for commercials. There are commercials that offer you pre-portioned meals they send right to your home. They promise not to cut corners. The meals are scrumptious and you will lose weight while you are eating them. How is that possible? I think you are supposed to have one for breakfast, one for lunch, and one for dinner. But if you are obsessive like I am, you would eat nine of them, maybe all at once. The food trays look like doll food. I would like to lose a few pounds, but I am not interested in miracles. I can promise you this: We’ll start to see commercials in November that brag that you will lose 20 pounds by Christmas if you go on some kind of diet. If you are overweight, good luck. I mean it. I am overweight, but not by much. I

we flip that around, we can say that with each passing day we are presented with opportunities to face challenging situations. How we choose to view it is really up to each one of us as individuals. How do you view it? Is life filled with challenging people and situations? Or is life filled with opportunities to take on those people and things that challenge us the most? Either way, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And I can just bet that when we look for the opportunities in each challenge, it really will be a better than good week.

have an addiction, but it’s not a food addiction. My addiction does not show, but if you have a food addiction it shows, and it might be a challenge to go outside. People are cruel. If you are overweight and people are cruel to you, I am sorry. There are before-and-after commercials that must be hard to watch if you are overweight. They are signature examples of someone who has been lucky enough to figure out how to do it. Overcoming an addiction is almost impossible. “Almost” means that it is possible. No one, no one, can help us if we aren’t ready. One day turns into another day, and the next thing you know, a month has elapsed and nothing has changed.

Revenge-posting, fatal hit-and-runs, Jessica’s Law addressed Staff report A wide-ranging group of 50 new laws dealing with everything from Internet crimes to marijuana research to Jessica’s Law took effect July 1. The statutes are among 425 bills that passed the Legislature and were signed into law by Gov. John Hickenlooper this year. One of the more interesting laws creates a misdemeanor for the online posting of sexual photos of a person for the purposes of harassment or financial gain, otherwise known as “revenge porn.” Posting of the so-called revenge porn is often carried out by an angry lover or spouse as a way of getting back at their partner over a relationship gone wrong. The new law — which had bipartisan support at the Capitol — carries with it a maximum fine of $10,000. “The effects of someone posting intimate photos online can be devastating to the victim, but now there will be serious consequences for the perpetrators of this horrible practice,” said bill sponsor Rep. Amy Stephens, RMonument, through an e-mailed statement. Another noteworthy statute will provide $9 million for the study of the health benefits of medical marijuana. The legislation sets up a grant program to fund scientific research into the ways that medical pot can impact those who have chronic ailments. New public safety laws also took effect on July 1. They included a law that will give police more time to investigate fatal hit-and-runs. The law extends the statute of limitations for fatal hitand-runs to 10 years. Prior to the new law taking effect, a hit-and-run crime could not be prosecuted five years after the incident occurred. “This new law will go a long way toward giving law enforcement the ability to solve any fatal hit-and-runs that occur in Colorado,” said Rep. Kathleen Conti, R-Littleton, a bill sponsor. “The families of victims can now feel more confident that the crime against their loved one will not go unsolved.” Also, child sex offenders will face more stringent sentencing penalties, under Colorado’s first-ever version of “Jessica’s Law.” The law — based on a national initiative that is named after a Florida girl who was murdered by a sex offender — imposes a mandatory minimum sentencing structure that includes up to life in prison for those who commit violent sexual assaults against children. Prior to the new law, the most severe sentence a court could hand out was 24 years behind bars.

Developmental Pathways celebrates 50 years Organization aids those with developmental disabilities By Savanna Walker

Special to Colorado Community Media Developmental Pathways celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, and will do so under the leadership of former Douglas County commissioner Melanie Worley. The agency services Arapahoe and Douglas Counties, as well as a portion of Adams County, providing birth to end of life care for individuals with developmental disabilities. The agency is invested in both locating and helping children with disabilities. “The sooner we can find them, the better off they are and the quicker we can mainstream them, if that’s possible,” Worley said. She estimates about one-third of the children Developmental Pathways works with can be incorporated into mainstream society if they receive proper early attention and are given the help they need. “We can train parents to work with their

child and hopefully lessen their burden,” she said. Beyond early intervention and support for children, Developmental Pathways provides diverse services for disabled individuals of all ages. The agency owns 10 group homes with 24/7 care for individuals with high needs, as well as apartment complexes with staff on hand for those who wish to live independently. Furthermore, Developmental Pathways provides Worley pre-vocational training, job coaching and volunteer opportunities for the individuals it services. The portion of the state that Developmental Pathways covers contains more children under 3 with disabilities than anywhere else in Colorado. The anticipation is that those numbers will grow by 10 percent in the coming years, Worley said. To prepare the organization for the growing needs, Worley has instituted an extensive investigation and restructuring of the agency. One of her most dramatic

stead at what we can do within the funding stream,” she said. “If someone comes forward, we should find a way to help them. “Shame on us if we tell them no.” A key component of helping others, she said is allowing her staff to feel empowered and giving them the ability to be creative. She said she makes it a point of telling her staff, “You are empowered, look for a funding source and get creative. It’s a new day. I want them to feel good and impart that to the individuals we help.” “We still have a long way to go, especially in vocational efforts,” Worley said when asked what changes she would like to see in the coming years. “I firmly believe that individuals with disabilities can own their own businesses and own their own homes. There needs to be acceptance of their abilities, a true community and a true integration. (People need to) stop thinking of their disabilities and think instead of their abilities.” For more information on Developmental Pathways, please visit www.developmentalpathways.org.

changes was to separate Developmental Pathways into four distinct nonprofits. One effect of this reorganization is to prevent conflict of interest, she says. One nonprofit will aid families and individuals in selecting providers, while another will provide those services and coordinate other providers. “This prevents conflict of interest so families have choice, and know they’re making the decision for their own lives,” Worley said. Another new nonprofit, the Sun Foundation, will focus on raising funds to help those whose government waivers cannot meet their needs. “We want to help as many as are on the waiting list,” Worley said. In her efforts to reorganize the organization, she was able to find another $1 million that Developmental Pathways was able to put back into the community. And over two more years, another $4 million in extra funds soon followed. Worley also seeks to change the culture of Developmental Pathways. “We had fallen away from looking at what we can do for everyone, looking in-

Abortion rate also drops for teens By Vic Vela

Teenage birth rate plummets

For local news any time of day, find your community online at

ColoradoCommunityMedia.com

Birth rates among Colorado teenagers have dropped by 40 percent over the last five years, a result of a state initiative that aims to help young women avoid unwanted pregnancies, state officials announced last week. “That is not a small drop, that is a very significant drop,” said Dr. Larry Wolk, the state’s chief medical officer, during a July 3 Capitol press conference. Reducing teenage birth rates is a goal of the 2008-launched Colorado Family Initiative, a program that has provided more than 30,000 intrauterine devices at little or no cost for low-income women. As a result, Colorado moved from the 29th lowest birth rate in the country in 2008 to the 19th lowest in 2012. The birth rate drop has saved the state more than $40 million in public funds.

That’s due to a 23 percent caseload reduction for the state’s Women, Infants and Children program, which provides nutrition education and support for lowincome women and their children, according to statistics provided by Gov. John Hickenlooper’s office. Teen abortion rates have also fallen. The state saw a 35 percent drop in that number from 2009 through 2012 in counties that are served by the initiative. Wolk and Hickenlooper said that unwanted pregnancies among teenagers can have serious health and psychological impacts on women and their children. Mothers who are involved in unwanted pregnancies are at a higher risk of being physically abused and the pregnancies can sometimes lead to abortions. Children born as a result of unwanted pregnancies can sometimes experience child abuse, neglect and a range of mental health issues, officials said. “We see that waiting until the mother is in the right place at the right time and ready to have children really creates a better situation for everyone concerned,” Hickenlooper said.

From alleys to gallery

Museo de las Americas hosts unusual exhibit By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com “The marks told a story of the beautiful crude, the elaborate conversations, transforming the surface …,” artist Josiah Lopez writes. A visitor to “Outside in 303” at Denver’s Museo de las Americas walks through a darkened passage, past dingy gray (think alley) walls filled with urban graffiti, then into galleries filled with mostly brilliantly colored, edgy, lively, skillfully rendered works by artists whom curator Maruca Salazar calls “the west side warriors.” She and co-curator Gwen Chanzit turned to poetry for an unusual curator’s statement — and the seven varied artists’ statements also take a poetic turn. Allow time to read them. The curatorial statement says: “My plate is full! ... And I have devoured my place / in this world. / I smell the poison vapors of the can and am / Protected by smoking mirrors, I find cold alleys / phantom shadows and the other side of the tracks. / The cracks in the street of my neighborhood / reflect ancient peaks to the west of my heart. / Can I be swallowed by the streets and become / invisible? / I call the West Side warriors to protect the hollow ground. / But … for now I can only paint the emotions, / dreams and hopes of the voices on the walls. / To the graffiti artists of Outside In 303 / Be Brave.” This group of seven local artists, born and raised on Denver’s west side, “who typically use the environment as their canvas, face the challenges and constraints of being placed in

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson’s autographed football is being auctioned off by the American Physical Therapy Association for the Bob Doctor Golf Tournament July 26 at the Colorado National Golf Club in Parker. The football is valued at $425 with a $200 minimum bid. Here’s the link to bid: www.blacktie-colorado.com/auctions/index.cfm?fuseaction=Auctions. Item&aid=627&iid=597221. The ball not only bears Wilson’s signature, but “XLVIII Champs” is noted as well. For those still smarting from the Seahawks’ drubbing of our beloved Broncos (43-8), you might want this souvenir to kick around.

Botanic Gardens eatery opens

Paper panels by Josiah Lopez, with powerful blackand-white drawings of street people fill a wall. the `white box’ walls of a museum,” Salazar said. They are: Jack Avila, Javier Fidelis Flores, “Kans 89,” Mario Zoots, Josiah Lopez, Victoriano Rivera and Gabriel Salazar. In addition to his wall art — strong blackand-white drawings of street people on carefully arranged slabs of paper — Josiah Lopez has created a short video piece called “Enter, Escape, Viajar.” It includes transportation images, both realistic and abstracted, constant motion and an accompanying soundtrack of Denver’s urban noise. He also is responsible for a wall of patterned folk images and the mini-tagger figure standing at the edge of it, contemplating. “Kans 89” told museum staff that she has a long connection with the Museo — she remembers coming there as a 6-year-old. Her body of work, “Broken Peace’s,” speaks to her playful exploration of individual identity, including music, cartoons, graffiti art and color — some images deconstructed. She uses traditional materials and those of the graffiti artist, hoping for a dialogue between artist and viewer wherever her art is located. Jack Avila writes of his youthful fascina-

Cartoon-inspired, but edgy, this painting was done by artist “Kans 89.” She recalls visiting the Museo de las Americas as a 6-year-old. tion with graffiti: “… notices and claims of who’s been there and who stays there by inner city youth; as common as it was, always fascinated me from an early age. Like a secret language posted in public, so foreign to most it was visually discounted as garbage.… This living bulletin, virtual barometer of the streets, of all its hazards and gems, still speaks to me today….” His unmounted canvas, secured through grommets like a banner, is a large, powerful yellow and black graffiti/painting suggesting deconstructed machinery to this viewer. Beneath it, he displays his tools and as the wall progresses to the corner, there is a composition of found materials and the dictum: “Use your world.” “Outside In 303” offers a color-filled, sometimes gritty, image of Denver artists who deserve recognition as a vital part of our societal fabric. It will run until Sept. 21 and should be included in a visit to the active Denver Arts District — an area with lots of messages awaiting.

IF YOU GO

Mario Zoots’ colorful large painted canvas reflects folk patterns, cartoonish faces and precisely arranged artifacts of some sort. It glows at the viewer.

“Outside In 303” is at the Museo de las Americas, 861 Santa Fe Drive, Denver, through Sept. 21. An artist panel on July 24 from 6 to 9 p.m. will discuss “Art vs. Vandalism.” Hours: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays to Fridays; noon to 5 p.m. Saturdays, Sundays.

The two-day Colorado Day celebration at the History Colorado Center, 1200 Broadway, will include food, music, dancing and hands-on activities as well as a chance to recognize how Colorado’s past has shaped today. “No other organization can help Coloradans understand the present in the context of the past the way we can,” said Kathryn Hill, History Colorado chief operations officer. “We celebrate Colorado’s places, stories and cultures every day, and this is evident the minute you enter our museums. On Colorado Day, we offer even more for visitors of all ages to spark imaginations and stimulate conversations about our state’s issues and future.” Beginning at 8 a.m. Aug. 1, History Colorado and its partners, the Department of Agriculture, the Colorado Department of Military and Veterans Affairs and Visitor Parker continues on Page 15

Nice move by Adams

Five-time Academy Award-nominated actress Amy Adams, who was born in Italy and raised in Castle Rock, gave up her firstclass seat to an American soldier on a flight from Detroit to Los Angeles on June 27. “While Amy’s random act of kindness

was done purely from the goodness of her heart, word quickly spread of her good deed after Jemele Hill, host of ESPN’s `Numbers Never Lie,’ saw it all go down and took to Twitter to share the touching moment,” according to a story in InTouch magazine. “Just saw actress Amy Adams do something incredibly classy. She gave her 1st class seat to an American soldier. I’m an even bigger fan now,” Hill tweeted. “Once we boarded, I saw she was in first class. I was upgraded to first class and she was a couple of rows behind me. I think she must have said something to the flight attendant, because before we took off she had vacated her seat and the flight attendant brought the soldier to her seat.”

Calendar of Events Denver Beer Co. to Expand with Assistance from a complete calendar of South Metro Denver Regis University and South Metro Denver Chamber For Chamber events and for more information, The popular Denver Beer Co.’s founders Patrick Crawford and Charlie Berger met in college. They both were interested in beer. While not unusual for college students, their interest was in brewing. After graduation, Berger became a brewmaster and opened a small business. Crawford, a satellite engineer at Lockheed Martin, continued brewing beer as a hobby and often called his longtime friend for tips and advice on improving his homemade brew. Three years ago the two men opened the Denver Beer Co., a South Metro Denver Chamber member company. Recently the great success of the brewery in the Highlands led Crawford and Berger to seek an expansion opportunity. In order to explore the possibility of bottling and distributing their beer throughout Colorado, Crawford and Berger reached out to the South Metro Denver Chamber for assistance. The Denver Beer Co. was selected to

participate in a special Regis University Master of Business Administration (MBA) School of Management course titled “The South Metro Denver Chamber Project.” The course was designed to allow an MBA class to work with a business selected by the South Metro Chamber. Businesses chosen are in the process of change, growth and/or expansion. The students, under the direction of Dr. Mike Fisher, a professor in the MBA program, focus on strategic planning and solutions for the company. Students complete in-depth analysis on the company’s issue and present multiple scenarios that examine human resources, financial projections, and marketing. In the case of the Denver Beer Co., the students examined the company’s ability to expand production and distribute their product throughout Colorado. Although the conclusion of the report is proprietary, Crawford commented, “We are pleased with the conclusions and the level of

professionalism, commitment and dedication the students and their mentors displayed throughout the project.” Businesses interested in participating in this project offered by Regis University through the South Metro Denver Chamber should contact Brian Bartony, Senior Business Development Manager, South Metro Denver Chamber at 303 795 0142 ext. 114.

Synergy HomeCare, a South Metro Chamber member who has newly relocated to Littleton, held a ribbon cutting to promote the creation of a new Caregiver Training Lab within the SYNERGY HomeCare University at the center. The event was held at their downtown Littleton location at 5721 S Spotswood, was attended by 30 Chamber members and guests. It featured a welcome by Littleton Mayor Phil Cernanec. Tom Yetzer, owner/operator of Synergy HomeCare of Denver also expressed his thank to attendees and welcomed them to the facility. The HomeCare University facility was opened in late 2013 to provide an opportunity to create hands-on training for all Colorado-based Synergy HomeCare caregivers. The innovative new Caregiver Training Lab provides eight hours of training focused on memory care for patients with Alzheimer’s or dementia. The university is unique to the non-medical homecare industry because it

allows the company to provide a lab environment to consistently train and assess personal care skills. They define personal care skills as ADLS or Activities of Daily Living, which include bathing, dressing, moving and other typical daily activities. SYNERGY HomeCare of Denver is a caregiver agency and solution provider that has been serving the Denver Metro area since 2006. They offer senior home assistance, home care support, and in-home companionship services in Denver, Littleton, Aurora and surrounding areas.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) A vacation choice seems less interesting than when you first made it. Could it be a matter of the place or the people going with you? Find out before you consider a change of plans. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Someone might be overriding your leonine logic to get you to agree to “favors” you would normally avoid. Take a new look at what you’ve been asked to do and see if you’ve been misled. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Try to keep that emerging “judgmental” aspect in check this week. Too many critiques on relatively unimportant issues could create a lot of negative bounce-back reactions. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Facing unpleasant facts about an associate isn’t easy. But ignoring them isn’t wise. Ask a trusted (and neutral) friend to help guide you on what to do and how you might do it. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) A shift in opinion regarding a workplace situation could go a long way in vindicating the stand you’ve taken. But be aware that a satisfactory resolution could still be a long way off. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) It’s not like you to choose the easy way rather than the right way to do things. So, follow your instincts and feel assured they will lead you to the right decision. Good luck. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Hold off on making a personal commitment until you find out what it really entails and whose interests are actually involved. There could be hidden facts you need to know. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A new friend offers an unexpected opportunity that could lead to a career change. Check it out carefully and consider getting an assessment from someone familiar with this field. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) A surprising discovery leads to mixed reactions from those involved in the “revelation.” But as you come to appreciate the truth, you’ll be able to also come to terms with your feelings. BORN THIS WEEK: your love of travel helps you appreciate the wonders of the world. you would find a satisfying career in any travel-related industry. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

ALL SUMMER STRONG Area high school football players work on power, speed in offseason

hour of strength training. So it’s a three-hour program, four days a week. It’s basically 12 hours a week the kids spend with us.” However, many players elect to continue to work during the summer with personal trainers. “There are some real good ones and there are some that in my opinion are just taking your money,” Robinson said.

By Jim Benton

jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Brandon Leahey and Alex Keys are two of the myriad players in the south metro area who believe improvement on the football field begins months before the season commences. Almost all area high schools begin offseason drills in December after the football season ends and early in the summer when those athletes who intend on improving their strength, agility and skills start to work extra hard. Chaparral’s Leahey, a 6-foot-3, 285-pound senior offensive guard/ tackle, starts the day with a workout at Six Zero Strength & Fitness in Centennial before heading to the school for another exercise session. This is a routine Monday through Thursday and then two days a week he stops at Lifetime Fitness in Parker for speed, agility and conditioning workouts. The workouts at Six Zero are conducted by former University of Colorado and NFL player Matt McChesney, who spent one of his five pro seasons with the Denver Broncos. “I feel the training is very important,” said Leahey. “It’s my No. 1 priority this summer and come school, then school is the priority. “I’ve been doing this for four or five years. It’s been so much different from year to year on the football field. Each year I’ve gotten so much better. With all the hard work I’ve put in, it has really made a difference.” Keys, a 6-foot, 285-pound senior center, works out three hours in the morning Monday through Thursday during the summer with the Highlands Ranch High team and also attends training sessions with McChesney. He also has a part-time job during the summer.

A busy time of year

Spare time is at a premium. “It’s football and work,” Keys said following a morning workout session at Highlands Ranch. “I love off-season training. I’m always excited to come in. It’s fun to get the whole team back in the summer. It’s important to be here and I’m glad to

Under a watchful eye

Highlands Ranch center Alex Keys was ready for a morning workout at the school last week. Photos by Jim Benton be here. Former Lakewood coach Mark Robinson is the new mentor at Highlands Ranch. He outlined what the Falcons and many other schools do during the off-season. “I don’t think there is any program that isn’t doing off-season training,” he said. “After the season is over going into Christmas break that’s the time we get things started. We work technique as far as the weight room is concerned, get benchmarks set, goals set and then by January when we get back, everybody is going full speed. At that point you are getting the athlete trained. “In today’s world, if you are not developing a player you are going to fall behind and that player is behind. That’s why these kids are bigger, faster and stronger than they were 20 years ago.” Robinson has his players in the weight room five days a week starting in January for the strength phase. The spring training segment consists of improving speed and agility. “The way we run our summer program is to come out for an hour in the morning and that’s when we install our offense and defense,” Robinson said. “We also work on technique skills. We take another hour and work on speed and agility every single day and then another

One of the good trainers, Robinson said, is McChesney. “When I got the job he was one of the first people I went to talk to,” Robinson said. “I knew he has a lot of kids and has several of our kids. He’s willing to sit down and say, what are you doing with the kid in the morning to make sure he’s not doing it again in the afternoon. What Matt will do is take all the extra time that we don’t have and he will work on everything else. All the other different skills, all the other strength components that we might not be able to do with 65 guys.” McChesney has just a few athletes during his training sessions and stays with the athletes during workouts, often offering individual instructions. “Off-season training is more important than anything else they do,” said McChesney. “A lot of strength coaches have 100 or some odd kids to get through the program and there is not a lot of commitment to reps and tempo. In here it’s all dedicated to the mindset of toughness of every rep, every day. It’s constantly changing and trying to get the athlete to bend his knees to get flexibility and things like that. “We run a lot of people out because they are not used to finishing, they are not used to committing at a high level. This is the closest thing they are going to get to a college atmosphere in the state of Colorado. A lot of high school coaches disagree with what I do, the college coaches give me affirmation of what I’m doing is correct. The individuals that come here and work hard get something out of it but it also exposes people pretty quick too.” McChesney claims there is no

reason to fear the dreaded overtraining. “Overtraining is a little bit of a myth,” he said. “A lot of high school programs do core every day. If you do that every day you are overtraining as a program. We change in up in here consistently and we rarely powerlift, if ever. It’s all about range of motion, explosion and finishing.”

Different approaches Valor Christian has captured five consecutive state football championships over three classifications and Eagles coach Rod Sherman likes to keep off-season training on an intramural basis. “Our kids all train in-house with teammates,” said Sherman who noted many of his players are involved in other sports. “We don’t have many guys train with outside people. The biggest thing in the off-season training is athletic development.” Cherry Creek coach Dave Logan wants his players to be fit. “That’s an interesting phenomenon,” he answered when the use of personal trainers was brought up. “You want to encourage kids to be fit and continue to work out but you also, however, want to encourage kids to work together as a team and be in the weight room together. “Our speed and conditioning stuff in the summer is pretty intensive. We want to make sure kids are there and go through that because it does help prevent injuries, it does help you get in shape and it will test you physically. It has allowed us over the years when the season finally rolls around, at least from a physical standpoint, we are usually ready to go.” Logan, the former CU and NFL player, will be starting his 22nd season as a high school coach. He has coached at four different schools and has guided teams into the playoffs in 19 seasons and has won six state championships. Creek’s off-season training follows the basic script of many schools — he urges athletes to play other sports and to take time off for family vacations. “What we do has not changed very much,” he said. “We go Monday, Wednesday, Friday and every other Saturday morning. It is a nine-week deal. I tell the kids I’m not missing one day and all of the varsity coaches will be there. If we get 85 percent turnout rate we don’t go two-a-days in August. In 22 years, I’ve never had a two-a-day practice. I remember as a player I just thought that was counterproductive to getting off to quick start.” Logan says summer workouts are important. “If we didn’t have to do it, it would be a lot easier just to show up two weeks before school starts,” he said. “That’s how it used to be back in the day. My golf game would be a lot better than it is. You wouldn’t have to worry about anything else in the summer, just show up when school starts and say `let’s go.’ “I’ve always believed that the time you spend in the summer, not only getting yourself physically ready, but understanding what offensively and defensively we are trying to do, the time you spend in the summer really helps you get off to quick start when the fall starts.” Taking advantage of down time from training during the summer for many players is special. “I hang out with friends, usually on the weekends,” said Leahey. “I go see movies, hang out, play video games with them at their house, and get some food.”
