City digs into new facility Public works complex is first one owned by Centennial By George Lurie
glurie@ourcoloradonews.com Donning hard hats and hoisting ceremonial shovels, Mayor Cathy Noon and members of the city council helped kick off renovation work on the city’s new public works complex at an Oct. 1 groundbreaking. The city paid cash to acquire the 9.2acre property, which is located at 7272 S. Eagle St. and was formerly the BMC West lumber yard. “The city council should be proud of itself for stepping up and paying cash for this facility,” City Manager John Danielson said at the 8:30 a.m. ceremony attended by about 60 people, including a
number of city employees. “Centennial has no debt,” Danielson said. “The council recognized that it’s time to stop leasing and renting facilities and own something.” Danielson called the new complex, located a block west of Jordan Road, “a legacy project that will be here for 20 or 30 years and allow the city to maintain continuity of operations. And it’s paid for in full from day one.” By acquiring the abandoned parcel at below market value and moving to consolidate public works in one location, Noon said the city council was “trying to be innovative and seize opportunity. Owning this facility instead of renting allows the city to be more efficient in providing services at a lower long-term cost.” The city purchased the abandoned parcel in September 2012 for $2.75 million, one-quarter of its original market value. Council has budgeted an additional
$2.7 million to complete the renovations. Since Centennial’s incorporation, the city has contracted its public works services through CH2M HILL and rented both office space and a maintenance building for public works through its contracts for these services. When renovation work on the Eagle Street facility is complete, the complex will house all of the city’s public-works services as well as animal services, code compliance and the city’s 24/7 Citizen Response Center. The property already includes a 14,550-square-foot office building, a 12,500-square- foot warehouse, a 15,000-square-foot shed and a concrete yard covering approximately five and a half acres. Modifications to the property’s existing structures are scheduled to be finished by the end of the year. Saunders Construction is the general contractor for the site improvements.
Lawyers, officials tackle aid for poor Litigants frequently face tough tasks in non-criminal cases By Jennifer Smith

At one time, Maria Nunez was a single mom struggling alone to reach a settlement with her ex. Today, she’s a confident personal trainer with fair child support and visitation agreements. Nunez credits help she got from Metro Volunteer Lawyers. “I felt that I was in the middle of a big support group,” she says in a video shown to elected officials and others from throughout the 18th Judicial District during the Access to Justice Hearing, held Sept. 24 at the Arapahoe County Justice Center. “It was nice to see how that
helped Maria grow,” attorney Steve Cook says in the video. When someone facing criminal charges shows up in court without an attorney, the judge can appoint a public defender at taxpayer expense. But there is no such provision in civil cases like divorce, probate and custody battles — situations that people who can’t afford an attorney commonly face. “I was drowning in debt, as everyone was at the time,” said Patricia Crowe, who saved her house from foreclosure with help an attorney from Colorado Legal Services. “He was very good and very thorough, and he was with me through the whole deal.” Hobbs presented data indicating there are 85,000 people living in poverty in the 18th Judicial District, a number that is projected to grow by 45 percent Justice continues on Page 23
“Come on baby, light my fiber!” That’s the catchphrase promoters are using in campaign literature to convince Centennial residents to vote yes on ballot measure 2G. The Citizens for Centennial Foundation, which is sponsoring the ballot measure and also backed the city’s home rule charter campaign, says a yes vote on 2G will bring “more choice, faster speeds and lower prices” to Centennial Internet users. “2G is about selfdetermination and regaining control of our fiber network,” said District 3 Councilman Ken Lucas, who is leading the council charge in trumpeting passage of 2G. In a nutshell, the ballot question asks voters to restore the city’s legal right to explore opportunities to partner with the private sector to develop its existing fiberoptic network. That right was taken away from cities like Centennial when state lawmakers passed a controversial bill in 2005. Comcast, CenturyLink and AT&T have lobbied against the ballot measure, which they say represents an indirect attack on existing service providers, who’ve built their own fiber optic networks at no cost or risk to taxpayers and should not have to compete with new players who could be allowed to tap into Centennial’s existing fiber and conduit network. But passage of 2G, Lucas said, would be just the first step in the city’s exploration of “developing more opportunities to better use” its existing fiber network.
Analysis needed
If voters OK the ballot measure, Lucas explained, a business plan would be drawn up and a feasibility study conducted before a final decision on whether or not to move forward was made by council. “As a ‘contract model’ city, we already put everything out for competitive bid,” said Lucas. “As the economy changes and our needs change, being able to put contracts out for bid gives Centennial the biggest bang for our buck. The 2G ballot initiative is an extension of this model.” The city council approved the ballot language for 2G by a 9-0 vote on Aug. 19. Lucas said the unanimous council vote was meant to send a message: “Citizens should take back their right of self-determination from the state” because basic broadband service is not sufficient for Telecom continues on Page 23

Storyteller helps others reach within He doesn’t remember quite what motivated him to offer a class to senior citizens on how to write your own life story. But then, for Garrett Ray, at 77 no youngster himself, life has been all about stories. The first page of his in-progress book starts this way: “Our stories begin as fragments in an attic trunk, nearly forgotten, then rediscovered, sometimes to our surprise. We pull out bits of fabric, examine the colors, move the scraps around, enjoy each one as a unique link to our past. Then we begin to place them side by side, discovering patterns we had not seen before, rearranging, looking again.” When you think about it, that’s who we are, isn’t it? A jumble of pieces steadily stitched into a narrative that somehow, one day, amazingly and unexpectedly, becomes a good story. You just have to see it. “Everybody … has stories to tell,” says Ray, in his soft and quick-paced voice, “if you can just get them to think that way.” The classes began in 2010 in the Highlands Ranch retirement complex he and his wife of 53 years moved to after a first career as a newspaper reporter and editor and a second one as a journalism professor. He calls this his third act. Offered once or twice a year for five hours over five weeks, the classes average 10 to 15 students. Even though he wrote weekly newspaper columns for more than 20 years, Ray uses Lois Daniel’s book, “How to Write Your Own Life Story,” to help teach his students. “A lot of them think if you’re going to write your life story, you’ve got to start with the first day,” Ray says. But you don’t. You look for the moments. “It might be a happy incident … or a house you lived in,” Ray says. “And that’s
where you ought to start, and guaranteed … you have enough stories to string together to make a pretty impressive package.” That’s what Dottie and John Talbott are doing. The couple, in their 80s, attended one of Ray’s classes last year. John, who can no longer type or write, is in a motorized wheelchair and speaks very softly. So he dictated his stories to Dottie, who typed them on the computer. “We figured out what things to talk about and what things to put in his memoir up to his sophomore year in college,” Dottie says. That’s when they met. “It was great fun,” she says, with a laugh. “I heard a lot of things I didn’t even know about him and we’ve been married for 63 years.” This winter, Dottie plans to write her part, which also will end at sophomore year in college. Then, she and John will compile the rest together. When the story is complete, one of their three daughters will add photographs and print the book. Their children, seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, Dottie says, “will know who we are.” ••• Ray’s passion for writing started when he was 11 in Greeley, where he grew up. He, his younger brother and sister and a
couple of friends published a weekly newspaper called “The Neighborhood News” for three summers. They wrote about lost dogs and vacation trips and home improvements. He learned a bit about storytelling from his mother, a reporter and editor at The Greeley Tribune. His tenure as editor and publisher at The Littleton Independent from the 1960s to 1981 won him state and national acclaim — he was recently inducted into the Denver Press Club Hall of Fame. And he continued sharing his love for storytelling with students as a professor at Colorado State University until retiring in 2001. When you get it just right, writing is a gift, Ray says: “The human being … the eccentricities of people, the joys of people, the sadness of lives. … Almost anything will shape itself into a story if you can figure out how to start.” He smiles, blue eyes earnest behind his glasses, as he answers a question about the writing of his life story. Working on it, he says. “I’ve got to give myself a deadline — I only respond to deadlines, I think.” But he has a good start. A white utility binder encompasses 70 or so pages, some copies of the “Scratch Pad” columns he wrote for the newspaper, others written more recently. Each carries a simple title. There’s “The house on the corner.” “When we turn the corner by the house, I always hope someone will be standing outside so I can stop and say, ‘I grew up here!’ Here is where my parents planted the iris garden, and here, my grandmother grew roses, feeding them coffee grounds each evening.” And “Playing back the old tapes.” “We carry old tape recordings in our unconscious minds. …” And “Farm boys” and “Understand-
ing Dad” and “Thanksgiving at Grandma Ray’s.” And “In 2007 I became old.” “I have begun to notice the darkening beauty of our mountain ridge against the last light in the western sky. I wait for the dusk, grateful for the purity, the clarity, the nightly gift. “I dance with Bailey, overflowing with 18 months of toothy grins and joyful rhythms, to ‘Sleeping Beauty’ and ‘Mary Had a Little Lamb.’ “I cry easily, in sadness, in joy, in gratitude, in celebration. “In 2007, I became 71. I forgave myself. I began to wonder what happens next.” Ray calls his in-progress book “Partial Recall” because he doesn’t remember every detail. Just bits and pieces stand out. His life story, he says, is not cohesive. “This is not going to have the nice, smooth flow that a memoir would have. I don’t know if it will work or not. But it doesn’t make any difference if it works or not if I’m happy with it.” In the end, he hopes his grandchildren and their children, whoever reads his words, will think “it was worth their time.” Remember the first page, where Ray describes stories as scraps of fabric that we constantly rearrange and lay side-by-side into stories that matter? Here is the last line to that paragraph: “Before our eyes, a larger scene emerges, full of memories and color. Finally, our patchwork quilts reveal the stories of our lives.” We all have one. We just have to see it. Ann Macari Healey’s column about people, places and issues of everyday life appears every other week. She can be reached at ahealey@ourcoloradonews.com or 303-5664110.

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com A shift in how Littleton Public Schools teaches kids who are learning English is going smoothly, say administrators. Rather than pulling students out of regular classrooms to focus on language acquisition, LPS is piloting co-teaching at two of its schools. Under that model at Field Elementary and Goddard Middle School, a second teacher comes into a classroom to work on English acquisition. “With our old pull-out model, students were spending lots of time in transition,” said Andrea Scott, an English-language acquisition teacher at Field. “They were leaving during tier-one instruction, not finishing the tasks in the classroom and then coming back into the classroom as lost little lambs, trying to catch up with what they missed. Now instruction feels more seamless. Students are a part of the magic that happens in the classroom.” This year, Field has 45 students who are not proficient in English, 114 with limited proficiency and 2o who are fluent but not quite ready to exit the program. It has five full-time ELA teachers. Across the district, there are 830 English learners who speak about 50 different native languages. There are ELA programs in place at Centennial, East and Field elementaries; Goddard and Newton middle schools; and Littleton High School. Mandy Leensvaart, the district’s ELA
‘Co-teaching opens the
Co in to access the grade-level for
door for our EL students curriculum.’
Crystal Reid specialist, told the board that all incoming students are tested, and those who could benefit are offered spots in those schools. “But some parents really want their child to be in the neighborhood and be in that community, and we support that choice, as well,” she said. There are about 195 of those kids scattered throughout the district, served by two specialists. Leensvaart said the ELA program also has a new emphasis on teaching academic language and requiring proficiency not just in English, but also in the subject being taught. “English-language instruction should not stand alone, but be anchored in content,” she wrote in her memo to the board. She likened it to a little girl in a wheelchair waiting in the snow to get into school while the maintenance worker shovels the steps. If he had shoveled the ramp first, all the kids could get in; instead, he made one wait. “Co-teaching opens the door for our EL students to access the grade-level curriculum,” said Crystal Reid, ELA teacher at Field. “It eliminates the disconnect.”

Tate campaigns on business background Council candidate in three-way race for District 4 By George Lurie
‘The challenge will be attracting new businesses and creating additional revenue.’
glurie@ourcoloradonews.com If elected to city council, first-time candidate John Allen Tate believes his strong business background will help him be a “good steward in guiding the city’s continuing success.” Tate, 46, lives in Piney Creek in east Centennial and is running for the District 4 city council seat currently held by term-limited Ron Weidmann. He has two opponents in the race, William Turner and Charles Whelan. As general manager and vice president of Littleton-based Investive Building Projects, Tate heads up a strategic business unit for the $100 million private company, developing and managing capital projects related to improving infrastructure. “My company has provided for many municipalities and state agencies important projects that address critical needs in such a way that they are self-funding, without requiring the use of scarce capital,” he explains. Besides having an executive leadership role and the requisite experience with budgets and the bottom line, Tate also writes and negotiates contracts and manages deliverables for cities like Centennial. “When working in a technical field, you get pretty used to not having all of the answers,” he says. “A core man-
John Tate agement skill of mine is the ability to bring together a team, whether of tradesmen or stakeholders, to identify possible solutions to a problem and choose the best path forward.” Tate believes his business background allows him to “connect with folks of all levels and interests, from the CFO to the boiler mechanic” and believes that “understanding that the unexpected happens is part of being prepared.” “In a capacity as an elected representative, you have the dual role of trustee and delegate,” Tate adds. “Citizens are looking for someone with my background, experience and skills to roll up my sleeves and tackle an issue in depth acting on their behalf and best interest.” Since making the decision to run for council in July, Tate has made an effort to learn “about the city, its history and philosophy, and most importantly, the expressed views and needs of its residents.” To this end, he says he has met with hundreds of city residents, going doorto-door conducting personal interviews, engaging HOAs and attending city-sponsored events and meetings.
Born in Nashville, Tenn., to a professor and nurse, Tate said his upbringing taught him “the fundamental value of education, respect for other people and an interest helping a community champion its identity.” He has an engineering degree from Duke University and his wife, Kathleen, is a surgeon. The couple has three children. “I think the city is going to get bigger,” he says. “The challenge will be attracting new businesses and creating additional revenue.” Tate said he supports the 2G ballot initiative. “The city has an asset (its fiber network) and needs to find ways to generate income while it’s still worth something.” If elected, Tate promises to “work diligently to maintain our city’s successes, like a low crime rate and high levels of customer satisfaction.” “It would be disingenuous for me to say anything negative about the city because I think it is very well run,” he adds. “I’m not really an ideologue. I just have a good skill set for the city council.”

Education tax plan debated School-finance proposal includes two-tiered hike By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Opponents call it the biggest income tax increase of our time, and say it’s a disproportionately designed, untested proposal. Proponents say Amendment 66 exacts a minimal fee that in the long run will translate into an improved economic scenario for all. Four people, including the coauthor of the amendment, argued on both sides of the issue during a Sept. 26 Highlands Ranch library forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters as the upcoming election nears.
The ballot question will ask voters to approve a two-tiered income tax hike that would raise about $950 million for public school funding. Colorado’s current flat income tax of 4.63 percent would change to 5 percent for those earning $75,000 or less. Those above that mark would pay 5 percent on the first $75,000 and 5.9 percent on earnings above that. State Sen. Mike Johnston, who also led the charge for Colorado educator effectiveness law in 2012 — also known as Senate Bill 191 — said Amendment 66 will transform Colorado’s education funding. “Not just where those dollars go, but the results we get from those dollars,” he said during the forum. The money would fund full-day kindergarten, allow for schools to extend school days and/or calendar years, expand technology and education options, restore programs lost to
budget cuts and change the funding formula to avert looming future financial snags. But opponent Steve Durham, a former Colorado senator, said there’s no proof the proposed changes will work as intended, adding that higher income taxes could deter productivity and ding the economy. “I’ve always come from the school that if you tax something, you’ll get a little less of it,” he said. Great Education Colorado director Liane Morrison said the amendment will more equitably distribute education funds so children in poorer communities have opportunities similar to those in Douglas County. “You want (your children’s) colleagues to have an equal experience like you’re trying to get your kids,” she said. “We either put it in at this end, or the other end. If you put it in early, society reaps great benefit.”

opinions / yours and ours
We love letters, but stay within lines In an era in which readers are more likely to post comments at the bottom of an online article or on a blog or on Facebook, we believe there is still a place for the good old-fashioned letter to the editor. Unlike online commenting, letters to the editor must go through something of a vetting process before being published. Largely, this is in order to maintain a measure of civility that, sadly, is often lacking online. On our opinion pages, we aim to provide a forum to stir community conversation. We appreciate diversity of thought and do not pick which letters run or don’t run based on our viewpoint. If you’re wondering why your letter wasn’t printed or are hoping to have one that is, read what follows. These do’s and don’ts will make the process easier for you and our editors. Do: • Your homework. In other words, check your facts. We have a small staff and can’t
our view do this for you. If you’re unsure of something, look it up. If you include a nugget of information that is not widely known, include where you found that fact. • Express your opinion. Tell us what you like or dislike. We particularly appreciate it when you comment on our articles and opinion pieces regarding local issues. But state, national and world issues are also on the table, if they are of relevance to our readers. • Keep it short. Our policy calls for letters of 300 words or fewer. Sure, we try to be a little flexible, and from time to time, you might see a letter a little longer but still in the ballpark. If you must go way over the limit, it won’t run, at least not as a letter to the editor. Consider requesting a guest
letters to the editor Amendment 66 is wrong course
Referendum C set TABOR’s tax baseline at the highest amount collected between 2005 to 2010. Ref C’s big-spending advocates promised that its tax burden would last only five years. But Coloradans still pay $1 billion each year. Now our state wants Amendment 66, an additional $1 billion annually. Rather than its ever-expanding bloated budget, the state should eliminate inefficiencies and consolidate or privatize government functions. Education consumes 37 percent of the budget, roughly $10,000 per pupil. Still, despite billions of tax dollars spent on education, pupil achievement remains essentially flat. Moreover, the state will impose more regulations, taking yet more control of their children’s schooling away from parents. High taxes stifle the economy, reduce the amount individuals have to spend, and limit the ability of businesses to expand or to maintain employee benefits. Amendment 66 carries a $1 billion price tag that will grow every year. Its goals cannot be measured. Colorado taxpayers deserve better. Peg Brady Centennial
Pick Noon for mayor
I am writing to support Cathy Noon’s re-election for mayor of Centennial. I have worked with Cathy serving on the Centennial Senior Commission, the Arapahoe County Commission on Aging and serving with her at Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) Advisory Committee on Aging. Because of the changing demographics and the fiscal challenges that face our community, the decisions being made now will affect us for many years. I believe that Cathy has the wisdom and insight to continue to lead the Centennial as the city and region face these challenges. She has been an able spokesperson for the growing senior population and has an understanding of their needs and the demands placed on their caregivers and local governments. She advocates in a reasonable manner without creating a sense of panic or exaggerated urgency. I appreciate her calm professional approach when addressing sensitive issues. She seeks to understand by asking for input from others and learning about an issue before reaching a decision. She has a strong but measured leadership style that invites collaboration with others in order to reach a consensus. I can confidently recommend that Cathy Noon be re-elected mayor of the City of Centennial. Jim Fleenor Centennial
3B deserves voters’ support
As a Colorado native, I’ve been a district resident for 50 years. I attended (LPS) K-12, am a Littleton homeowner and a Littleton employer. I support measure 3B, to refinance our debt to invest in our school buildings.
• LPS is a great district, and continued funding to maintain our buildings will help maintain that high achievement: — LPS ranks #1 in overall student achievement in the Denver metro area in reading, writing and math in all grade levels — LPS is the highest performing district in the metro area — Has been Accredited with Distinction (only district in the metro area to receive four times) • It is important for our property values that we invest in our schools, and although LPS is the top school district in the metro area, it’s time to perform much-needed repairs and maintenance. • Because of historically low interest rates, WITH NO TAX INCREASE we can raise $80,000,000 to invest in our schools. • We need to keep schools safe and in good working order. The useful life of our buildings can be extended, but major upgrades and repairs are necessary. • A YES vote for 3B will ensure that all district-owned facilities, including all 15 elementary schools, all four middle schools and all four high schools will receive repairs and upgrades. • LPS has a history of sound financial management, • A Citizen/Staff Capital Improvement Committee studied district facilities, and the Citizen LPS Financial Advisory Committee recommended that LPS move forward and passed the Board with full support. • A Citizen/Staff Oversight committee will govern how the money is spent. • Some of the funds from this refinance will be used to retrofit classrooms for STEM — Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. Let’s give our students the tools they need to compete in a global economy. Dan Miller Littleton
Help schools with 3B vote
I support Littleton Public Schools’ ballot issue 3B, which would raise $80 million for school repairs. As the executive director for South Suburban Parks and Recreation District, I am keenly aware of the costs to maintain facilities. As facilities get older, it takes more money just to maintain them: Roofs leak, boilers need to be replaced, air conditioning needs to be upgraded; ADA requirements have changed and require alterations to facilities; asphalt parking lots and concrete sidewalks need repairs; etc., etc. The program that voters are being asked to approve — 3B — is just for maintaining the school district’s aging infrastructure, which helps maintain our property values. And, it would not raise the tax rate. It’s a great opportunity to make important repairs to our schools. Vote YES on 3B. David A. Lorenz, Executive Director South Suburban Parks and Recreation District Letters continues on Page 9
column instead — but we have limited space for these. • Email your letter to letters@ourcoloradonews.com. You can also email one of our editors, but it is more efficient to send your letters to the address specifically designated for them. • Let us know who you are. Include your full name, address and phone number with your letter. We won’t publish your digits, don’t worry. We just need to give you a call to make sure the letter was actually written by you. Yes, “letter-to-the-editor fraud” does happen. Don’t: • Put words in someone’s mouth. You can write in support — or opposition — of another person, such as a candidate for public office, but don’t assign any thoughts, opinions or actions to an individual that haven’t been publicly documented. If you do so, we may consider it a news tip and investigate the validity of your claim, but we won’t run it as a letter to
the editor. • Buy a stamp. “Snail mail” isn’t efficient when it comes to letters to the editor. As mentioned, we have a small staff and can’t take the time to retype your letter (which, we’re guessing, was written on a computer anyway). Email your letter to the address mentioned earlier. It will get to us faster, something you will appreciate if you want to see it published in the upcoming edition of the newspaper. • Inundate us with letters. By this, we mean from one person. We want everyone to have their say, so don’t expect to see more than two of your letters printed in any given month. • Be surprised if we edit for grammar or punctuation. We approach this very judiciously, however. A tip: DON’T WRITE IN ALL CAPS or use a lot of !!! • Use profanity or call someone a word you wouldn’t use in front of your mother. Your letters really do matter. We look forward to seeing more of them.
Too good for our own good Just even saying that we are “too good” at something is kind of like saying we are having “too much fun,” or “we have too much money.” None of these statements makes a whole lot of sense, as I can’t recall a time when I actually had too much fun and I never found myself saying there was no more room in my bank account because I simply had too much money. However, I can look at times when I had reached a certain level of expertise or accomplishment at a specific skill or craft and can probably say that I had become “too good” at that particular skill. It’s not being good at something that is the problem, it’s when we become complacent or even maybe careless because we start to operate on autopilot. I have met many extremely talented and skilled individuals and teams who are wonderfully accomplished. They never cease to amaze me with their capabilities and productivity. But even some of these folks have gotten caught in the trap of complacency or carelessness. Always be willing to learn even more. No matter how good we believe we are, regardless of how strong, fast, accomplished or experienced we believe ourselves to be, there is always someone better, smarter, stronger, faster, and more productive than we are. Always. So we need to be willing to develop an attitude of being a constant student of the game, especially when it comes to those things that we are most passionate about. Another good idea is to imagine that we are teaching someone how to do the very

same thing that we do. Even if we are alone performing a task or utilizing a skill, if we place ourselves in the role of the teacher, and remind ourselves the importance of safety, productivity, quality, and value we will certainly deliver a product or accomplish something we can truly be proud of.

Conflict resolution is worth fighting for
Since 2009, every October during Conflict Resolution Month, I’ve been writing and presenting town halls about reducing conflict in our lives. Yet we are again dealing with a partial federal government cient shutdown due to the stubbornness in the As U.S. Congress. an’t And why? Apparently, some people ch, just don’t know how to manage conflict uter effectively. ss Or maybe their egos have run amuck, r, and they think they don’t have to govern ant efficiently in order to remain in office? ition Maybe they need to hear from us that they need to find a better way of governing; a e more collaborative method. one Every year in the workplace, employers (including the government) across the n country are losing millions of dollars in employee absenteeism, lost productivity, r and employee turnover due to people not knowing how to prevent or solve people ITE problems. How many marriages could be saved if people knew how to stop yellord ing and start listening? And how many er. k

taxpayer dollars could be saved if members of Congress could drop their egos and collaborate on solutions rather than fingerpointing? Colorado’s No. 1 employer is the federal government, so we’re certain to be affected by this dysfunction. This is why I have once again sponsored Conflict Resolution Month. And isn’t it ironic that as we watch the U.S. Congress implode, that in Colorado, we’re honoring October as Conflict Resolution Month? What is Conflict Resolution Month, and how can it help our communities?
Across Colorado during October, there are local and regional events that range from workshops, to town halls, to open dialogues where people can learn tips and techniques about preventing or resolving their own conflicts. I’m very proud that we now have all the cities and towns in Senate District 26 proclaiming to spread the awareness of Conflict Resolution. Imagine if every elected official, government employee, or contractor collaborated with each other in their work. The efficiency and effectiveness of government would soar. The cost savings would rise. And trust in government could be regained. How can it help you personally? Imagine having more peace in your home or peace among your friends or neighbors. Think of hearing your kids bragging about solving their own problems on the playground or in the classroom. And what if you knew how to handle that cranky coworker, customer, or boss? Your workday would become easier and more enjoyable.
If we had the tools to prevent or minimize just some of our conflict, imagine how much better life would be for all of us. Doctors tell us that when we reduce the stress in our lives, we reduce our chances of heart attack, high blood pressure, stroke, etc., and the list goes on. And what creates stress? Usually, some sort of conflict — internal or external. Please join me at my Conflict Resolution Town Hall on Oct. 12 at Blueberry’s on Littleton Boulevard at 9 a.m. We will be providing conflict resolution tips, tools, and resources that are available locally. Go to senlindanewell.com, conflictresolutionmonth.org, or call 303-866-4846 for more information.

Flies bring out the buzz-kill inclination
I have written a haiku for you today: I despise all flies McFly is OK, that’s it The rest are pests. Swat I hate flies. I am sure that I would feel the same way about jellyfish and cane toads, but I never see them in my neighborhood. I haven’t seen a single Gaboon viper either. Gaboon vipers have the largest venom yield of any venomous snake. No attempt was made to give flies a unique name, like butterflies and dragonflies. A fly is just a fly. It’s entry-level naming. “What does it do?” lone “It flies, that about it.” “We’ll call it a fly.” we Sometimes you can’t even see them. er, of They just buzz around the kitchen, and do we one touch-and-go after another. mof. s emy

purce. Continued from Page 6 ou o. Yes on 3B is right choice e I want the best for my children and I u plan to vote in favor of Littleton Public at Schools ballot question 3B. We moved to Littleton because of the excellent educary tion this school district provides children. LPS offers hands-on opportunities in science, technology, engineering and math (also known as STEM) in EVERY school, s not just in a few buildings. This is one of g the major reasons our school district is so der excellent. However, I am worried the facilities are old and are not kept up to the same standard of excellence because of a lack of funds. I was encouraged by the Board of Education’s decision to ask the voters for permission to issue $80 million in bonds, with NO tax rate increase and a normal payment schedule. Our schools require a robust technology infrastructure that will support a one-to-one computing environment. The integration of technology into my son and daughter’s classroom has helped their writing and science test scores improve dramatically. This integration is possible because of improvements made possible through previous bonds passed by voters more than a decade ago. I believe that our aging schools must be repaired and upgraded in order to accommodate today’s hands-on learning that teaches students the skills necessary to compete and lead in the 21st-century workforce. Vote Yes on 3B to make it happen. Holly Biggers Littleton
Kelly Perez for school board
I first met Kelly Perez a few months after she had given birth to her fifth child. She was an active member of the Powell Accountability Committee, the woman who contributed to discussions while burping her baby. That was 12 years ago.
Flies are completely useless. I guess lizards like them, and that’s better than nothing. Otherwise, they are no more than nuisances. Quite unnecessary, dark, flying specks. At least mosquitoes led to medical breakthroughs because of malaria. Flies? Nothing. “Some strains are immune to most insecticides.”
Kelly has served as PTO President for Damon Runyon Elementary, Powell Middle School, Heritage High School and Arapahoe High School. She has participated on other building committees — Recognition and Accountability Committees, to name two — and has volunteered for the District ETAC, District Financial Advisory and the District Wellness committees. She knows the thinking of the school district. She is also among the first to tackle difficult tasks. Kelly is also a community member. She listens to the educational concerns of her friends and neighbors on telephone and sidewalk, as wells as shopping malls and grocery stores. Kelly shares community opinions with school decision-makers. Once a district direction has been decided, Kelly distributes the information to community members, thanking them for the educational difference they have made for our youth. For these reasons, I endorse Kelly Perez for her bid for Littleton School Board. Kelly has impressed me with her hard work, drive, integrity and intelligence. Her leadership will take Littleton in the right direction. As a side note, all five of Kelly’s children have been educated in LPS. They are/were excellent students in LPS and will/have maintained these outstanding academic standards at prestigious U.S. colleges. Linda Arnold Centennial
There is fly fishing, and fly balls, and “a fly on the wall.” In the urban dictionary, “fly” means cool. But I am reaching. Flies are 100 percent irksome. There is one in the house right now. It’s in the kitchen. It may be a reincarnation. In fact, I am certain of it. I’m pretty sure it’s a former student of mine who once told me that she had a Mr. Smith doll that she put pins into every night after class. But something went wrong, I guess, because Esther spent the last four weeks of the semester in the hospital. I figure she wanted to come back as a daffodil, but goofed that up too, and came back as a fly. Flies are believed to have gotten their start 65 million years ago. It doesn’t look like they have evolved very much, does it? “They are capable of carrying over 100 pathogens, such as those
causing typhoid, cholera, tuberculosis and anthrax.” Why are they here in the first place? Why do we have to have more pests? Aren’t Howard Stern and Jerry Springer enough? If you are having a bad day, the sight of a butterfly can improve it immediately. If you are having a bad day, the sight — and sound — of a fly in your kitchen makes it worse. I am having a good day, but knowing that Esther is in the house is bothersome. Knowing she is downstairs, perhaps sitting on a crumb, is unacceptable. I have the business section rolled. Wish me luck. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast. net

Centennial man faces 20 years Sur La Table heads Ex-Rock Canyon coach agrees to lengthy term in child sex assaults By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com A former Highlands Ranch middle school teacher and high school coach, charged last November in an alleged sexual assault of a former female student, has pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual exploitation, agreeing to serve 20 years in prison. Richard Johnson, 32, of Centennial, left the Douglas County School District in March 2012 after serving as both an eighth-grade teacher at Rocky
Heights Middle School and as a basketball coach at Rock Canyon High School. According to Rock Canyon Principal Andy Abner, Johnson left the district for personal reasons unrelated to the allegations. Johnson was arrested and charged in November with 30 felony counts, including 10 counts each of sexual assault on a Johnson child by a person in a position of trust and patterned sexual assault on a child by a person in a position of trust, as well as five counts each
of sexual exploitation of a child and enticement of a child. According to Senior Deputy District Attorney Chris Gallo, who was prosecuting the case for the 18th Judicial District, all of the charges involved one victim. Johnson pleaded not guilty to all counts in June, but reached a plea agreement with the district attorney’s office prior to a motions hearing that had been scheduled for Sept. 27. As part of the agreement, Johnson also agreed to 20 years in the state’s Sex Offender Intensive Supervised Probation program after he is released from prison. Johnson will be officially sentenced Nov. 27 in Castle Rock.

There was a bounce house for the little ones, games and activities including a hockey goal shoot for young athletes, food, beverages and lots of tables and chairs to just sit and chat about the sport and the association. “This is a pretty nice event,” Laura Taylor said. “My son keeps talking about wanting to play hockey, a neighbor told me about today’s event and I decided to check it out.” The Centennial resident said everyone was friendly and helped her answer a lot of questions about youth hockey. She smiled and said her son is excited and, while she hadn’t decided, it is possible she might sign him up for one of the teams. The ice rink that became the initial home of the Littleton Hockey Association was purchased and brought from Amarillo, Texas, in 1963. It was an outdoor rink originally set up at Arapahoe County Fairgrounds, the site that eventually became Cornerstone Park. South Suburban Ice Arena was built in 1969, and the original outdoor rink equipment was moved to the arena in 1974. South Suburban Ice Arena and the

Kent Murphy Ice Ranch at Littleton are home ice for the multitude of teams playing under the Littleton Hockey Association banner. There are about 675 boys and girls, ranging in age from four to 18, playing on association teams. There are about 180 4- to 8-year-olds on association teams while there are 19 teams of 9to 18-year-olds. The largest single age group are the 13- and 14-year-olds who fill the rosters of the 14 association teams in the under 14 division. While many of the teams play only in the metro area, the upper level agegroup teams often travel to tournaments at different locations around the country. Brian TenEyck, director, said Littleton Hockey has been developing great hockey players and citizens for 50 years. He said he knows from experience the association is a strong family and community organization because he was a player, his dad was a coach and he eventually became director. The association honors players who are program alumni who went on to play hockey at a Division 1 college or higher by placing their pictures on the wall of fame. Six new inductees were added to the 75 pictures on the

wall at South Suburban Ice Arena. Kent Murphy started with Littleton Hockey in 1994. He had played hockey in North Dakota and coached in a major program in Minnesota before a job transfer brought him to Colorado. “I became a coach for the Littleton Hockey Association because it was the best program in Colorado,” he said. “I coached pee-wee teams made up of 13- and 14-year-olds for about 15 years. We were blessed to have good athletes and we won three national championships during the time I coached the teams. We traveled to the national playoffs 10 times and won three championships in a five-year span.” Ashley Hunt noted it takes a family commitment to have a child play hockey. “My 10-year-old son is playing hockey and a child playing hockey requires a family commitment of time, effort and finances,” she said. “Hockey probably is more expensive than most sports, and that cost goes FAMILY FEED # 3 # up when traveling is involved.

THEMES of SCHEMES ‘Dirty Rotten
Scoundrels’ on stage at Town Hall
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcolorado news.com The audience files in at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center to see a set with white balustrades against a blue sky — the sort that mark a promenade along the seashore in towns on the French Riviera. Lighting will change the mood, but we know where we are. David Yazbek’s lively score kicks in, played by musicians on a marble-railed balcony set high on the side. Palm trees on wheels glide in and a procession of dancers in glitzy
and
gowns and tuxedos follows as the lights go up on a truly delightful musical bonbon: “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,” directed by the skilled Nick Sugar. Based on a 1988 movie with Michael Caine, Steve Martin and Glen Hedley, the musical opened on Broadway in 2005 with book by Jeffrey Lane and lyrics and score by David Yazbek. The con is on at a Riviera hotel as Lawrence (Keegan Flaugh), Andre (Brian Murray) and the ensemble sing “Give Them What They Want” (schmoozing wealthy women). Lawrence, a smooth operator, talks about getting those gullible women to “make the check out to cash.” His buddy Andre, chief of police, keeps an eye out for new arrivals with potentially
DREAMS
fat purses. Enter an older woman, Muriel, played by a charming Margie Lamb, who reminisces: “What Was a Woman to Do?” Andre takes note and another story begins. Word comes that another con man is in the territory — a threat to Lawrence’s operations? Freddy (Tim Howard) is as casual at Lawrence is classy — with a sob story about a poor old sick grandma who needs money. The two joust a bit verbally and figure they can work the scene together. Their joint number, “All About Ruprecht,” is devised to get rid of Oklahoma heiress Jolene, who has gotten too seriously interested in Lawrence — and packs a pistol. It gives Howard a chance to show his bent for physical comedy as
Ruprecht, supposedly Lawrence’s brother, intellectuallychallenged and randy to an extreme. (Probably not politically correct, but very funny.) American heiress Christine (Rachel Wood) appears on the scene and both men fall for her. The show goes on with several parallel story lines, bubbly score and clever dance numbers — as well as some mutual bamboozling. With Sugar’s sure direction and Donna Debreceni’s band, the pace never lets up — what will happen next? You’ll need to visit Town Hall and find out! “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” is onstage until Oct. 13, in the theater at 2450 W. Main St. in Littleton. For tickets, go to www.townhallartscenter.com or call 303794-2787.
Duesberry retrospective opens at museum Greenwood Village painter prefers working outdoors By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcolorado news.com Prolific painter Joellyn Duesberry, a Greenwood Village resident, opens a retrospective exhibit of her oil paintings Oct. 5 at the Loveland Museum/Gallery, where it will remain until January 12, 2014. A variety of events, classes and public programs will accompany the exhibition. Duesberry’s website artist statement speaks of her preference for painting “en plein air,” outdoors, when weather permits. She has created an oversized easel structure that can secure her large canvases in the windy and adverse conditions she sometimes experiences, especially in the west. In bad weather, she sometimes makes monoprints from her paintings and may tear them to create collages. “From my first landscape painting, I became a part of the landscape, with a good animal understanding of it while within it,” she said. Paintings in the exhibit range from small canvases to massive triptychs and represent her work from the 1980s to today.
Her distinctive style presents strong, swooping, sometimes swirling brushstrokes in earth tones and natural greens that draw a viewer into the site. Primarily self-taught, she began her painting career in New York City, but in 1986, she got a National Endowment for the Arts grant to paint for a month with well- known California abstract artist Richard Diebenkorn. After that, she felt compelled to move to Colorado for its light and dark contrasts and landscapes. She has offered workshops, on her Greenwood Village farm and elsewhere, called “Abstraction Masquerading as Landscape,” which would suggest that the Diebenkorn experience remains part of her inner makeup, after years of painting all over the world. Many canvases do verge on abstraction, although clearly landscapes. She will exhibit in a visiting artists show at the Art Students League of Denver this fall and her “Memory Time Lapse Ground Zero” will be at the Fulginiti Pavilion for Bioethics and Humanities at the Anschutz Medical campus. She will make three appearances at the Loveland Museum/Gallery: a members- only preview on Oct. 3, an artist demonstration at 2 p.m. Nov. 2 and a gallery talk at 5:30 p.m. January 12.
I have the deepest respect for Denver restaurant owner and super chef Jennifer Jasinski (Rioja, Bistro Vendome, Euclid Hall) for her stellar performance in Bravo’s “Top Chef Masters,” which ended sadly not in her favor on Sept. 25. In losing, as part of the final three, she was nothing but gracious, of course. Here’s what James Oseland, editor-in-chief of Saveur magazine, had to say about the end results: “I thought I had a handle on Jennifer’s excellence as a cook, and then during the finale meal, she served us her paella gnocchi. My God, it was the single best dish I ate all season — so perfectly balanced, so beautifully executed, so lovely to look at. Unfortunately, for her chances at winning the season, her other three courses — while very, very good — didn’t come anywhere near the glory of that dish. Still, if we’re handing out prizes for individual plates of food, this one is the season five gold-medal winner.” Not to be overlooked was her remarkable job of snaring the most money for her charity: $35,000 for Work Options for Women, a Denver nonprofit that teaches food service skills to women in poverty. “I have no regrets at all about this experience,” Jasinski said after being defeated by chef Douglas Keane. “Top Chef Masters” win or lose aside, Sept. 25 was still a good day for the Denver chef. Two of her restaurants, Rioja and Euclid Hall, were named among the Top 25 Best Restaurants in the October edition of 5280 magazine.
Another Boulder best
The University of Colorado-Boulder is back in the top 10. No, not its football program, but on Playboy magazine’s top 10 party schools. CU ranked third in Playboy’s 2013 list in the October issue. West Virginia University topped the list, followed by the University of Wisconsin. CU topped the list in 2011 and has been a regular in Playboy’s poll, which began as the top 40 party colleges in 1987. CU did not make the list a year ago. This year’s list was determined by Playboy’s editors, who used data from resources including the National Center for Education Statistics, the NCAA and the U.S. Economic Census, as well as feedback from Playboy’s more than 12 million social media fans. The 2012 top party school, University of Virginia, failed to make the 2013 list.
Restaurant Week does the splits
“Aqueduct Early Morning, MT” by landscape painter Joellyn Duesberry, a Greenwood Village resident, is included in an exhibit of her work at the Loveland Museum/Gallery through Jan. 12, 2014.

Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays; 10a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursdays; 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays; 12 to 4 p.m. Sundays.
Admission is $5. (Free days Nov. 6, Dec. 12, Jan. 10) Guided tours with a docent every Friday. 970-962-2410, lovelandmuseumgallery.org.
Denver Restaurant Week(s), one of the most popular events in town for the generous portions for a small price, is doing a double take by splitting its personality with two weeks spaced out during the year. In observation of the event’s 10th anniversary, Visit Denver’s Denver Restaurant Week will double the fun by holding one week from Feb. 22-28 and a second week Aug. 23-29. The new price per meal per person is $30, FYI ... Not a bad deal when you factor in inflation with the cost of food, etc. As you may recall, in several of the previous years, Denver Restaurant Week was two weeks, which in many cases put a mad crush on diner volumes, although the financial gains, in many cases, were well worth the effort.

“A summer version of the event offers restaurants a lot of interesting serving and meal options,” said Richard Scharf, president and CEO of Visit Denver, the creator and organizer of DRW. “Restaurants will be able to offer outdoor dining and feature fresh Colorado produce.

Mickey Liebrecht, an Arapahoe High School junior, was one of nine high school students from across the nation who received the 2013 VSA (Very Special Arts) Playwright Discovery Awards. It meant a weekend of participation in pre-professional activities at the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., working with the other students and theater professionals — actors, directors, playwrights — who coached and mentored the Club young artists as they refined their skills. The competition encourages high school students to look at org. their world and address how disability affects lives. The play could be about real or fictional Leg-characters. The 2013 recipients ing’swere chosen from more than 150 Oct.applicants. Main- Liebrecht’s play, “Broken Bodies,” was one of three selected for .org.a professional stage reading, and Oct.a 10-minute excerpt, her Scene ns inFive, was live-streamed from the Millenium Stage on Sept. 1, broadcast on the Kennedy Center website and archived for the future. “Broken Bodies” focuses on a traditional Southern family,
Mickey Liebrecht, Arapahoe High School junior, was a winner in the VSA Playwright Discovery Competition. Courtesy photo with a controlling mother who wants to schedule deaf Alaine for cochlear implant surgery, which she resists. She reads lips and uses sign language. “Why wouldn’t she want it?” the mother asks. The girl says, “I like the way I am.” “I had been watching `Switched at Birth,’” Liebrecht said regarding the inspiration for her play. The award-winning TV series in the first to use deaf and hard-of-hearing actors and scenes shot in American Sign Language. At the Kennedy Center, “I got to meet real directors and mentors and was told to `keep running with it.’ … Seeing it performed onstage, I thought I was daydreaming,” said Liebrecht,
who was the youngest playwright there. VSA, a program of the Kennedy Center, was founded 35 years ago by Ambassador Jean Kennedy Smith to provide arts and education opportunities for people with disabilities and increase access to the arts for all. The AHS student is a longtime member of the Young Voices of Colorado choir, where she learned to read and make music. She is enrolled in honors and AP courses and will continue to write — a craft she has pursued since fifth grade, when a teacher who recognized a budding talent urged her mother to bribe her if necessary to keep her interested in writing. “I daydreamed a lot,” she recalls.
The Arapahoe Philharmonic performs its “60th Anniversary Celebration Concert” on Oct. 11, conducted by Devin Patrick Hughes in his first year at the orchestra’s helm. The orchestra plays in the large sanctuary of Mission Hills Church in Littleton. Pianist Jamie Shaak will be featured soloist, performing the “Egyptian Piano Concerto” by SaintSaens, which Hughes describes as “rarely played and undeservedly so.” Shaak, a Denver native, has a long history of performing with the orchestra. Also on the program: Stravinsky’s “Firebird Suite” and Berlioz’s “Roman Carnival Overture.” “Along with bringing in a scent of opera with Berlioz’s `Roman Carnival Overture’ (originally taken from his initially-failed, but wonderful opera `Benvenuto Celinni’), and a taste of ballet, this concert has a taste of exoticism,” Hughes said in a news release.
“Stravinsky’s music to the `Firebird’ was the beginning of a style that would shatter the music world by challenging the very nature of dance and art music. `The Firebird’ is marked by a gorgeous, rich and romantic, although at times foreboding, atmosphere and a triumphant finale, that would not be repeated in his following ballets, `Petrochka’ and `Rites of Spring.’” The orchestra learned recently that it had received a grant of $10,000 from Colorado Creative Industries to support its 60th season celebration. It also receives funds from the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District and from individuals. Future programs will include: “Carmina Burana” on Nov. 8; a holiday concert on Dec. 6; “Made in America” on Feb. 7; “Classic Traditions” on March 14 and “Love’s Arrow” (“Carmen” highlights in concert) on May 9.

Glass sales to help flood victims Englewood shop owner has Littleton links
If you go The Annual Friends of the Library/Museum Craft Fair will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 5 at Ketring Park, just north of the Littleton Museum, 6028 S. Gallup St., Littleton. Art by 300 artisans will be available, as will food and beverages.
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews. com Jane Watkins, a longtime Littleton resident, is co-owner of Watkins Stained Glass, located in Englewood and formerly on Littleton’s Main Street. For a number of years, she has created a new “Main Street Miniature” glass Christmas ornament to sell at the annual Friends of the Littleton Library/Museum Craft Show (happening Oct. 5 at Ketring Park). The 2013 edition has an image of pouring rain and part of the proceeds from her sales will be donated to a relief fund for the many flood victims in Colorado. “We own the very first cabin on the St. Vrain River in Boulder County,” she said, “and we feared the worst. However, we were able to get up there when some roads
The St. Vrain River runs past the cabin of Jane and Phil Watkins, owners of Watkins Stained Glass in Englewood. They were relieved to learn that recent flooding left their cabin, the oldest along the St. Vrain in Boulder County, undamaged. Henry, the Watkins’ Bernese mountain dog, helped clean up debris. Courtesy photo by Jane Watkins opened last weekend to find the cabin safe and undamaged.” Earlier generations of the Wat-
kins family preceded Phil as Colorado stained glass creators (Brown Palace, First Unitarian Church …)

5th Annual Women in Leadership Conference Inspires Women
KWGN Anchorwoman Natalie Tysdal giving the keynote address at the 5th Annual Leadership Awards Luncheon.
On Friday, September 20th, the South Metro Denver Women in Leadership (WIL) hosted its fifth Annual Women’s Leadership Conference themed “WIL to Prosper.” This exciting and enlightening event took place at the Embassy Suites DTC and included free mammograms, 9 different morning and afternoon break-out sessions, the Annual Women’s Leadership Awards Luncheon, and a cocktail reception to end the day. The conference was a great experience for the 165 business women who attended. The early morning hour of 7:30 featured a delicious buffet breakfast as the gathering women listened as Chamber President & CEO John Brackney and current WIL Chair Gina Kaelin-Westcott of Extreme Relationship Management welcomed the ladies and gave insights regarding the day’s events. Several Chamber Investors took advantage of the opportunity to present their products and services at booths throughout the day. Kuni Honda on Arapahoe, Schomp Automotive, Arbonne International, Park Meadows, Silpada Jewelry, Take Shape for Life, Lovett Family Chiropractic and Wellness Center, University of Colorado Hospital
and the South Metro Denver Small Business Development Center were present with an enthusiastic audience. The 5th Annual Women’s Leadership Awards Luncheon began with a presentation by Heather Halpape, Public Affairs Manager for Safeway Denver, of a check for $3000 to Project C.U.R. E. Laurie Porter for Project C.U.R. E. spoke on the great work the organization does with getting much needed medical supplies set to developing countries. Outstanding women who have demonstrated outstanding leadership in their businesses and community were then honored. To rounds of applause Pamela Kelly of Park Meadows was christened Outstanding Leader of the Year Holly Mullins, Farmers Insurance Agent/Owner was named Emerging Business Leader of the Year, Bridget Lovett, Co-Owner of Lovett Family Chiropractic and Wellness Center gained Community Leader of the Year, Kristie Nelson, Realtor with Remax Alliance was the Inspirational Leader of the Year, and Leah Dirks, Vice President at 1st Bank was named Philanthropic Leader of the Year. KWGN anchor Natalie Tysdal was the keynote speaker for the luncheon. During her honest and sometimes emotional presentation, Natalie spoke on her decision to become a reporter in order to be sure that people were portrayed by the media with compassion and integrity. Her conflicts with being a woman in a male-dominated arena and her stance on what is appropriate to report and what is not were covered as well as her new entrepreneurial endeavor, EverWise Entertainment. The conference presented 9 seminars including three panel discussions. Semi-
nar topics were wide ranging and included Empowerment by Dynamic Leadership, The Power of Saying “No”, Making Connections, Maximizing Social Media, Mastering Your Influence and Credibility, Creating Culture, Time and Stress Management, Branding Yourself and Your Business and Strategic Thinking. Throughout the day, the University of Colorado’s “Pink Lifesaver” mobile mammogram bus was parked in front of the hotel, offering free breast screening to any conference participant who wished. Others took the chance to sit in and experience the new 2014 Honda CRV and Mini convertible presented by Kuni Honda on Arapahoe and Schomp Automotive. The day ended with a Networking Cocktail event in order to allow the attendees the opportunity to unwind and share their experiences among themselves. A variety of WIL supporters held drawings for items such as gift baskets, and evenings out on the town during the event. The day’s events were sponsored by Safeway, University of Colorado Hospital, Park Meadows, and Schomp Automotive. The Chamber’s Women In Leadership Group brings together women of different backgrounds: business leaders, activists, educators, and many others. They feature influential and inspirational businesswomen as speakers at many Chamber investor sites to share their career path, the challenges they have overcome and new ways to help businesses of all sizes to prosper through Collaboration, Empowerment and Transformation . For more information about this dynamic group, contact Ali Recek at 303795-0142 or arecek@bestchamber.com.
she shot of the roaring river, carrying bits of debris to help with cleanup. “We were so fortunate and I would like to do something to help the flood victims. … I do this fair only because it is a fundraiser for the Littleton Library and Museum. Watkins Stained Glass made the stained glass window in the Children’s Room and it feels good to help the library in whatever way we can.” She now has eight different designs, including the 2003 blizzard, 9/11 sunset, starry nights inspired by Van Gogh — and pouring rains and floods. As she has in the past, she wrote a “Christmas on Main Street” poem and she will presumably have copies at the craft fair.

Eagles edge Lions in soccer Evenly matched teams battle for entire 80 minutes of game By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Fans watched a classic high school soccer match between two evenly matched teams Sept. 24 when Heritage got a goal in each half to edge Littleton 2-0 at Littleton High School Stadium. Both teams played an uptempo style and it was a constant battle to win the ball and mount a successful attack that stretched from one end of the field to the other. Each team mounted attacks, put solid shots on goal and both goalies, Riccardo Cominelli for Heritage and Edgar Cervantes for Littleton, made difficult plays to keep the ball out of the net. After the game, Heritage coach Adam Buseck said his young team played very well. “We graduated 14 or 15 seniors from last year’s team that were the Continental League champs, so we have a lot of young kids in starting roles this season,” the coach said. “We played good soccer and the win tonight against a crosstown rival was important as we move ahead this season.” Littleton coach Pedja Vajzovic
agreed it was a tough game. “I thought we played them even in the midfield but we gave up two goals in close,” he said. “We had chances and I thought we had a stronger attack, but we didn’t score the goals. We deserved the win but we gave away two goals.” The Sept. 24 battle was a good one from the opening kickoff. About four minutes into the game, Heritage mounted a sustained attack, drove in close and Jacob Bruno put the ball into the net. The score remained unchanged until just past the midway mark in the second half. Heritage had a free kick and Conrad d’Leeuwen lofted the ball into the mouth of the goal. Teammate Johannes Coopeneur out jumped the players around him and headed the ball past the diving goalie and into the net. Eagles coach Buseck said his team played well against Littleton. He said he feels the defense is one of the strengths of the team. “We have two strong seniors helping anchor our defense,” he said. “We are working on our offense and it is coming along.” Eagle senior midfielder Josh Peil said Sept. 24 was a really big game for the Heritage team. “Littleton is a very good team and it was a battle out there tonight,” he said after the game. “They came out, gave it everything they had and the game was Soccer continues on Page 22

Winning softball games requires good defense, solid pitching and timely hitting. On Sept. 26, Arapahoe had the fielding and pitching elements, but Warrior bats didn’t find the range and they lost to Mullen, 6-2. “Our defense looked good today, pitching looked good today, but our bats are just too inconsistent,” said Warriors coach Jeannie Krueger. “We are working on hitting in every practice because you have to hit the ball. I don’t think it is a matter of the pitching because most of the girls play competitive summer softball and have seen these pitchers before. I think a lot of it is mental, and the girls are thinking too much when they come to the plate.” The loss leaves the Warriors 3-9 in league and 4-13 overall as they head into the home stretch of the schedule. Arapahoe traveled to Village Green Park Oct. 1 to play Cherry Creek, and then are on their home field at DeKoevend Park Oct. 3 to play Cherokee Trail, the game that ends the regular season. Mullen came into the Sept. 26 game 9-3 overall, which includes an 8-2 league record, so the Mustangs are battling hard to capture one of the top spots in the league. The Mustangs scored a pair of runs early and combined aggressive base running and timely hits to push four runs across the plate in the top of the sixth inning. But the Warriors kept battling. A walk, sacrifice bunt, stolen base and fielder’s choice resulted in Arapahoe scoring a run in the home half of the sixth. After holding the Mustangs scoreless in the top of the final inning, the Warriors sought to put together a solid rally in the
bottom of the seventh. Michaela Shea was hit by a pitch, went to second on a wild pitch and went to third on another wild pitch. Caroline McPhillips put down a wellplaced bunt, allowing Shea to score, and Morgan Medina, who walked and moved up on the wild pitch, moved to third base with only one out. But a pair of strikes ended the inning and the game, giving Mullen the 6-2 win. Krueger said things have changed for her team. “Our bats were our strength early in the season, but as the season progressed, hits were harder to come by so we had to depend on solid defense and good pitching to be competitive,” she said. “I think our girls have played well, and the good news is just about all these girls are underclassmen so we should be a better, more competitive team next season.” The Warriors expected to have two pitchers this season but, a week into the season, one pitcher went down with a knee injury, so Arapahoe had depended on freshman Ashlynn Krueger to do all mound duty for the team. “When I was about 8 and playing recreational league softball, my coach asked me if I wanted to pitch, I said yes and I’ve been at ever since,” the freshman said. “I found that I really liked to be the pitcher because you have the ball every play.” She said she has sought to improve her techniques by working with a pitching coach. She said, over the years, the coach has helped her develop her catalog of pitches to include a fastball, a change-up, a drop ball, a rise ball and a curve. “My most effective pitch is my drop ball. I don’t know why, it just seems to work best for me,” she said. “During the off season, I plan to work on my attitude plus try to tune up my mechanics so I can throw faster, harder and move the ball around in the strike zone.”

played by both teams. Fortunately, we put a couple balls into the back of the net, which gave us the win. We had sort of a rough start this year, but the win tonight is a plus as we head into the rest of the season.” Vajzovic said his team played well, and it is always tough to swallow a loss to a rival and league opponent. “We fought hard in spite of the fact we are a young team with only five seniors on the roster,” he said. “All the guys played well, but there were a couple mistakes by the net and they got the two goals. We put this behind us and keep battling as we head into the second half of the season.” Littleton senior Will Paton said the game was all about the Lions sticking together even though they gave up two unlucky goals, something that sometimes gets a team down. “We didn’t let down after goals and kept after it. Heritage is a good team and it was a battle as both teams kept pushing the ball and looking for openings that weren’t there,” the Lions captain said. “I play outside midfield and I like it there because you can see what is going on all over the field. I used to play defense but moved up into the midfield.” He said soccer is his game but he also swims for the Lions.

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Littleton Rotary is on a mission to prevent hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia among students at Centennial Academy. No, it’s not their latest health cause like Shots for Tots or Project CURE. Neither is it a service project to help lonely hippopotamuses (or hippopotami, if you prefer). It’s the fear of long words, and Rotary is battling it with free dictionaries and thesauruses (or thesauri). “They’ve really been just so helpful in getting the materials we need,” said teacher Stacey Helbig. “It makes their writing so much better. It encourages them to think more and make better word choices.”

She is here for the whole school year, attending Heritage High School and staying with the family of Olivia Holt, who spent a year in Belgium as part of the program. “It’s been difficult, but I’m having fun meeting new friends and getting to serve the community,” said Zabala. “I also like little children, that’s why I volunteered to read.” Zabala said she volunteers on service projects with Rotary in her hometown, too, something the Littleton group, which celebrated its 90th birthday this year, would love to see more of. Without some younger faces, many of the club’s good deeds could go by the wayside: Books for Babies, Littleton Free Clinic, Breakfast with Santa, Flower Power and Hands Across Littleton, and scholarships for students, just to name a few. “We love our association with Rotary and all the senior volunteers who come and help us,” said Centennial’s principal, Mary Ellen Dillman. “It’s a wonderful partnership.”

Whiting, the Littleton club’s first female president, taught there before she retired. It’s where she started Rotary’s I Can Read program, pairing members with students for one-onone reading time. “I saw this sea of people out there, and I thought, `We need to get them involved in this school,’” she said. “It’s great that there are these positive male figures, gentle, intelligent and caring, who come in and work with some of these kids.” Flowers recalled his first little reader, a timid little girl who got picked on a lot. “I saw the door open, then I saw her little tiny face, then she came running down the hall with her arms wide,” he said. “It melted me.” Veronica Zabala, 17, was the day’s added bonus.

before the year 2040. In 2012, more than 82,000 civil cases were filed in the district, mostly in county court. There are efforts throughout the district to provide help for people facing civil battles, whether they are defending themselves or filing a claim. For example, Douglas and Arapahoe counties both have “pro se clinics” to guide people representing themselves through the court system. There’s also a new self-help center at the Arapahoe County Justice Center that’s seen more than 1,000 people since it opened at

21st-century Internet users — “and especially businesses — which require faster connections.” “The council feels strongly that the voters should determine what to do next with its existing fiber network, not current providers,” said Lucas. “The average home in Centennial currently has between 5 and 30 megabits per second of service,” said Dave Zelenok, Centennial’s chief innovation officer. Zelenok explains that one gigabit equals 1,000 megabits and that if Centennial, by teaming with private partners, can provide “gigabit or better” service, it would effectively boost broadband capacity “by a factor of 200 times.” “Businesses tend to locate where their needs can be met,” Lucas said. “Having gigabit bandwidth will give Centennial a competitive edge over cities around us.”
Chattanooga model
Zelenok cited Longmont and Chattanooga, Tenn., as examples of cities that have successfully developed their public fiber-optic network. “Ten thousand jobs came to Chattanooga after they became a gigabit city,” he said. In 2008, the city began installing an ad-
the beginning of the year. Its director, Lindsey Adams, said domestic-relations cases make up 76 percent of those she sees. In divorce cases, for example, people can pick up a packet from the clerk’s office, fill it out and file everything themselves. But they often get stuck. “There’s a real emotional factor,” she said. “Even though it has instructions, it can be overwhelming.” Organizations like MVL and CLS provide volunteer attorneys to the indigent, but they rely on state and local funding. Representatives from those organizations say the money is unpredictable, insufficient and dwindling. “Despite our best efforts, the American Bar Association estimates only 20 percent
of the legal needs of the poor are met,” said Jonathan Asher of CLS. “We, in fact, turn away one person for every person we help.” Part of the money comes from fees tacked on to filing charges, which some consider controversial. “There is a real philosophical debate around funding our judicial system and access to it by charging the participants in the system,” said state Sen. Pat Steadman, D-Denver. “At some point, you can start to price it out of reach.” Such assistance doesn’t just help the poor, notes Colorado Supreme Court Justice Gregory J. Hobbs. He says it speeds up the process for everyone by keeping incorrect paperwork and confusion from leaving cases languishing on the dockets. And the
longer they languish, the more they cost in the way of attorney fees, staff time and other resources, he said. “It puts us as judges in a very difficult position, because we can’t go out of our way to offer them legal advice,” he said. “We can help them along, but we can’t offer them a whole lot of guidance.” Elbert County Commissioner Robert Rowland wondered about the other extreme, asking if a lot of pro se cases are frivolous and clogging up the courts unnecessarily. “I have no doubt that some pro se people have meritless cases,” said Asher. “There are some who no reasonable lawyer would take their case. Some get that message, and some go ahead and file pro se.”
vanced telecom network as part of a public works “transportation and street light optimization” program, which Zelenok said has enhanced connectivity between city assets, including traffic signals, weather stations and other public facilities. The 42-mile-long network was financed primarily through grants and contains 96 separate strands of fiber-optic line encased in half-inch-wide conduit. “Right now, we’re using just one strand,” said Lucas. If 2G passes, Centennial would “reserve one to three more (strands) for city use and the rest could be open to use by potential private partners.” More than 80 percent of Centennial’s businesses are located within a half-mile of the city-owned fiber-optic line and more than 50 percent of residences are also within a half-mile of the network. If 2G passes and the city decides to move forward with a public/private development plan, Lucas said Centennial would make its existing, so-called “middle” mile of fiber line available to private telecom companies, which, at no cost to the city, would build out the “last mile” of cable to connect homes and businesses to “competitively priced, gigabit service.”
2g Ballot language
and nearly 10 times more in reserves than is required by law, spending $100,000 to explore the possibility of developing a city asset makes sense to Lucas, who worked in the venture capital and private equity markets before retiring several years ago. “Right now we’ve got an underutilized asset,” he said. But earlier this year during a public hearing on the proposed ballot initiative, AT&T Colorado President Bill Soards told city councilors that, historically, municipal fiber-optic networks have been “less than successful.” Soards pointed out that his company has invested millions of dollars in the Denver area, including in Centennial, and sees the city’s plan as a competitive threat. “I find it interesting that, as part of the rationale, this somehow is going to increase competition or be good for business,” Soards said. “The business models of dozens of telecommunications companies in Centennial are at risk of being undercut by free or significantly subsidized networks.” Lucas disagrees. Comcast and CenturyLink “have a duopoly in Centennial right now,” he said. “We have plenty of fiber, so lots of companies could come in and compete.” Passage of 2G, Lucas said, is “simply the first step in taking our right back from the state. Then we can have an intelligent discussion about where we go from here.”

Ballots will be mailed out on Oct. 15 and Centennial voters have until Election Day, Nov. 5, to return them — either by mail or by dropping them off at the Civic Center. The 2G ballot question asks voters: “Shall the City of Centennial, without increasing taxes, and to restore local authority that was denied to all local governments by the state legislature, and foster a more competitive marketplace, be authorized to indirectly provide high-speed Internet (advanced services), telecommunications services, and/or cable television services to residents, businesses, schools, libraries, nonprofit entities and other users of such services, through competitive and non-exclusive partnerships with private businesses, as expressly permitted by Article 29, Title 27, of the Colorado Revised Statutes?” 2005 state law enacted to stop local municipalities from developing existing public fiber-optic infrastructure. But a provision in SB 05-152 does allow a city, through passage of a citywide referendum, to regain control of its telecom infrastructure and to partner with private companies to develop that infrastructure. If the telecom initiative is approved, Lucas said the city is likely to spend “about $50,000 to $100,000” doing its due diligence before a final decision is made.
