Switch from ACT to SAT pushed to 2017
Colorado Department of Education changes test for high school juniors
By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com State officials avoided possible student panic and further controversy by delaying the switch from the ACT to the SAT for high school juniors until 2017. The move to the SAT had been scheduled to begin this spring but was pushed back until the next school year after an outcry from concerned parents, students, teachers and administrators. State superintendents wrote a letter to the Colorado Department of Education urging them not to rush the transition. The CDE announced the decision to postpone the switch on Jan. 11. Douglas County School District Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen said it was a mistake to move away from the ACT, which has been given to juniors since 2001. “The original decision was to do that this March, which is a ridiculous timeline,” Fagen said. “I immediately received an email from a parent who said, ‘I’ve
WHAT’S NEW ABOUT THE SAT? This March, students taking the SAT will encounter a new version of the 3 1/2-hour college entrance exam. This new version is similar to the ACT and will draw from the Common Core standards, which emphasize skills in interpretations of text, reading, vocabulary usage and depth math skills, according to the Colorado
been preparing my child for the ACT. We’ve been studying. We’ve done ACT prep courses.’ She said she had spent a considerable amount of money.” Fagen also said she worried that abandoning the ACT would mean losing data the district has accumulated over the past 14 years. “This is the one piece of long-term longitudinal data that we have, and they want to get rid of it,” Fagen said. The department of education is working with the College Board, the ACT and school districts to ensure the data isn’t lost, according to Dana Smith, CDE’s interim communications director. In December, the department of education signed a contract for juniors to

take the SAT and sophomores to take the PSAT — a practice assessment that gives students a feel for the SAT. The department of education and the College Board, the company that sells the SAT, PSAT and Advance Placement assessments, entered into a $14.8 million, five-year contract to administer the SAT and PSAT. A committee of 15 educators — urban and rural district administrators and one representative from the CDE — approved the switch from the ACT to the SAT in December in response to a bill passed last year aimed at reducing overall standardized testing.

Tax statements are being mailed to Douglas County residents the week of Jan. 18, and many will notice a hike in their property taxes due to an increase in property values. Per state law, homes in Colorado are reappraised every other year in odd-numbered years. The most recent appraisal was in 2015, and the tax notices going out this week will be the first time homeowners see the changes. The countywide market saw a 15.5 percent jump in 2015, according to Douglas County Assessor Lisa Frizell. Entry level housing, such as townhomes and condos, saw the greatest increases, 25 percent to 40 percent in value. What the county defines as the Highlands Ranch area, which includes Lone Tree, was the region with the largest increase in property value, with a 19.29 percent increase from 2014 to 2015. Castle Rock was next in line with an 18.11 percent increase. Taxes continues on Page 22

HELLO
... My Name Is
A glimpse of the people in our community
SAVANNAH ASMANN Athlete, outdoor lover, student About me I’m 16 and I moved here 10 years ago from Memphis, Tennessee. It’s a huge difference. I really like Colorado. There’s a lot more to do here. I love the outdoors I like hiking and fishing a lot. We go kayaking and camping in the summer. It’s a lot of fun. There’s a lot more outdoor stuff to do here. I like the outdoors because you get to see new stuff and it’s just fun because you don’t have everything provided for you — so you get to figure it out yourself. Hiking is really fun because you get to see new stuff. In the moun-
tains, there’s always new things to see. My favorite places I like kayaking at Monument Lake and my favorite place to go during the summer to camp and hike is Salida, Colorado. It’s really nice down there and they have rivers right on the edge of the town. Playing sports I like sports. I’ve played pretty much all the sports girls can play here. I play tennis right now for Douglas County High School. After high school I want to go to a big university and major in athletic training and kinesiology. I want to be an athletic trainer for a sports team, preferably football or hockey. I’ve been to a few college football game and seeing what they do on the field is really cool. I’ve also taken athletic training classes and it’s just really interesting to me to learn about the human body.

CSU Extension panel has opening The Colorado State University Extension Advisory Council has an opening for a volunteer to fill the remaining two years of a three-year term set to expire in January 2018. The mission of the 11-member advisory council — which serves as a review body to counsel, advise and deliberate with CSU Extension staff regarding program efforts — is “to provide information and education, and encourage the application of researchbased knowledge in response to local, state, and national issues affecting individuals, youth, families, agricultural enterprises, and communities of Colorado.” The successful applicant must have experience in the field of agriculture and be able to meet quarterly on the third Thursday of January, April, July and October. The position is an atlarge position, meaning the vacancy may be filled by a resident who lives anywhere in Douglas County. Applications are due Feb. 15. Those interested may fill out an online application at www.douglas. co.us/government/commissioners/ advisory-boards-committees-andcommissions-vacancies/ or print out the application and mail it to: Douglas County Commissioners’ Office, 100 Third St., Castle Rock, CO 80104. Northbound I-25 closures planned Following overhead sign bridge installation that was set to completely shut down northbound Interstate 25 at C-470/E-470 overnight on Jan. 20-21, and additional northbound closure in the area is planned for overnight on Jan. 21-22, with another overnight closure set to begin on either Jan. 24 or Jan. 25. All work is weather permitting and subject to change. Visit www.codot. gov/projects/i25lanebalance for more information on planned highway closures including detour maps. If schedule changes occur, information will be posted on the website and on variable message signs along northbound I-25.
Detours for the night of Jan. 21 are as follows: Northbound I-25 will be closed at Lincoln Avenue (11 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. Jan. 22). All northbound motorists will be detoured off I-25 at Lincoln Avenue (exit 193), travel east (right) on Lincoln Avenue, head north (left) on Peoria Street, and enter westbound E-470 to access the on-ramp to northbound I-25. E-470 tolls will not be collected along the detour route while the full closures are in place. Southbound I-25 will remain open. In February, there will be an overnight closure of southbound I-25 while an overhead sign structure is put in place on the west side of the highway. The I-25 Widening Project adds an additional lane in each direction on I-25 from Lincoln Avenue to County Line Road, resulting in four lanes in each direction south of the C-470 / E-470 interchange. In addition to expanding capacity on I-25, crews have replaced asphalt with concrete to better match the I-25 corridor. This project improves traffic patterns from and to all affected ramps as well as provides new pedestrian connections. Funded by CDOT, Douglas County, City of Lone Tree and the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG), this $32 million project is ahead of schedule with anticipated substantial completion in early 2016. Job fair scheduled for Feb. 4 The Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce is hosting the Douglas County Job Fair to raise awareness about employment opportunities in Douglas County from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Feb. 4 at the Douglas County Events Center, 500 Fairgrounds Drive, Castle Rock. Employers attending the job fair will represent a wide variety of industries and have several different types of positions for which they will be hiring. This event is free for the public to attend.

Cops engage community Monthly event helps link police, public By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com As Castle Rock Police Cmdr. Jason Lyons sat at Lost Coffee in downtown Castle Rock on a recent Tuesday morning speaking with residents, a child came up to him. The young resident wanted to show Lyons his Lego police helicopter. He wants to be a police officer when he grows up. “If we can affect their perception of us today, then 10 years from now, they have respect for law enforcement, which is something this country is losing,” Lyons said about making an impression on youths. Lyons and two other members of the Castle Rock Police Department were at the coffee shop Jan. 12 for the monthly Coffee with a Cop event, in which residents may come and pose questions to law en-
forcement or talk with them about things happening in the community. “We’re really pushing for community engagement,” Lyons said. “Some people come to show support or listen or with a specific concern or question.” The location of the event changes each month to a different coffee shop in Castle Rock and is designed to be a casual conversation. Lyons said residents pose a lot of questions about how law enforcement is adapting to growth in the town. “We haven’t seen a rise in crime,” Lyons said. “Statistically, it has remained constant.” But Lyons said the number of calls for service has gone up. The top types of calls are about community engagement, welfare checks, medical assistance, suspicious people and mental health. The next Coffee with a Cop is actually a Cops and Cupcakes event scheduled for 10 a.m. Feb. 20 at Smallcakes, 34 E. Allen St., Castle Rock.

Castle Rock eatery owners excited about making change By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Known for its breakfast and lunch menu, Pegasus Restaurant has been a downtown Castle Rock establishment for almost 30 years. But a six-month analysis of revenue by restaurant owners John and Janie De Lay has persuaded them to eliminate dinner service. “People view us as a breakfast and lunch venue,” John De Lay said. “We weren’t doing the business at night.” The new hours, 6:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week, took effect the first of the year. The restaurant is known for its American classics and Mexican and Greek fare, and the staff is working to bump up the menu with items including bananas Foster, French toast and additional Mexican dishes. When asked about the analysis, John De Lay said that dinner Thursday through Saturday was packed, but that during the week, sales did not outweigh labor costs. Carolyn Livingston, of the Colorado Restaurant Association, said Pegasus’ decision to close for a portion of the day is not surprising, as most restaurants are open for breakfast and lunch or lunch and dinner, but not all three. But the restaurant will not be empty at night. One of the reasons the De Lays decided on the change in hours was to create a special-event space in the evenings, called Pegasus After Hours. “There’s a shortage of venues that accommodate 75 to 100 people in Castle Rock,” De Lay said. “This is a positive move and the response has been overwhelming.” Pegasus seats 160 people indoors and 45 on the patio. Special-event fees are still being determined. All special events will be catered by Flying Horse Catering, which John and Janie De Lay own with John’s brother, Jim De Lay. “The phone has been ringing off the hook for wedding receptions,” John De Lay said. The first wedding reception at Pegasus is scheduled for April 16 for 85 people, and three more are booked. The venue also will be available for corporate functions, birthday parties and fundraisers. “I believe in what we’re doing,” De Lay said. “I’m pumped up about it.”

Swords stay sheathed as Legislature opens Bipartisanship is lauded as session gets underway By Ann Macari Healey ahealey@coloradocommunitymedia.com As Marolyn Scheffel, 85, watched her son, Senate Majority Leader Mark Scheffel, prepare to start Colorado’s 2016 legislative session, she reached back in time to his high school days when he first became involved in the Republican Party. That was 42 years ago, she said, and the Republican spirit was a big part of family life: Marolyn has led the Douglas County Republicans and Colorado Federation of Republican Women, and volunteered for campaigns of former congressmen Tom Tancredo and Joel Hefley. And now, she and her husband, Norm, 87, sat in the Senate chamber as their son helped kick off his last session — Mark Scheffel Scheffel, who represents Castle Rock, Parker, Castle Pines, Franktown and Larkspur in District 4, is termlimited. “We promoted good Americanism in our home,” Marolyn Scheffel said. “And, as a result, this is where he is today — and I think I had a little something to do with that.”
The state’s 100 legislators gathered Jan. 13 to open Colorado’s 70th General Assembly amid ritual and patriotic ceremony at the state Capitol in Denver. The positive tenor of bipartisan workmanship underlying openingday speeches in the Senate and House echoed earlier remarks by Mark Scheffel: “I always enter every session very optimistic.” Leaders of the two chambers underscored their varying philosophical approaches to dealing with the major issues of budget, affordable housing, transportation and education over the 120-day session. But several also called for putting the best interests of the state before politics. “Performing our duties to the best of our abilities means finding the best solutions,” said Senate President Bill Cadman, a Republican from Colorado Springs, who emphasized how bipartisan collaboration in 2015 resulted in successful legislation. “We didn’t seek Republican solutions or Democratic solutions; we sought the right solutions, and we succeeded.” House Minority Leader Brian DelGrosso said that “reasonable people can differ.” The Republican who represents Loveland added: “I encourage all of you to welcome our differences and look beyond party affiliation as you consider the merits of legislation this session.” The biggest issue, said Rep. Kim Ran-
som, a Republican representing Parker and Lone Tree in District 44, will be finding common ground to pass a state budget through the Republican-controlled Senate and the Democrat-controlled House. “Thank goodness we can’t go start raising taxes to meet whatever” funding requests are presented, she said. “The citizens of Colorado are not undertaxed.” In the House, Speaker Dickey Lee Hullinghorst, a Democrat from Boulder, strongly urged the chamber to fight to preserve a “Colorado way of life” that brought more than 100,000 newcomers to the state last year. Doing so, she said, includes ensuring fair workforce regulations, closing offshore tax loopholes that benefit large corporations, Report providing greater jobtraining opportunities, eliminating inequity in pay for women and implementing policies to fight climate change. “Our economy will wither if employers stop hiring Coloradans because we lack the education and training that allow us to compete for high-quality jobs,” Hullinghorst said. “Commerce will suffer if our roads are crumbling
Capitol
and overwhelmed by congestion. Our magnificent mountain vistas are worse than worthless if they are hidden under a blanket of smog.” Republican legislators such as Scheffel have eliminated the possibility of moving the hospital provider fee from under the TABOR cap, saying that doing so violates the state Constitution. But Hullinghorst said colleagues should expect to see a bill that would do just that. It would “give us flexibility” to pay for the state’s needs and invest in the future, she said. Along with Scheffel, Sen. Linda Newell also will be leaving the Legislature because of term limits. Shortly before the gavel sounded in the start of the new session, her eyes unexpectedly welled with tears. “It’s hard to leave something that I love so much,” the Democrat said as she began her eighth and final legislative session as a state senator representing District 26, which includes Littleton, Englewood, Columbine Valley, Bow Mar and a portion of Centennial. “It’s become a passion for me, not just a job.” And like the cooperative tone of the day’s speeches, Newell looked forward to leaving a record of cooperation. “I, hopefully, will leave a legacy of nonpartisan, bipartisan work,” she said. “I’m so proud of the work I’ve been able to do with collaboration.”
Taxes, spending highlight State of State speech Governor says refund money should be used for investment
LEGISLATORS REACT TO SPEECH
By James Anderson Associated Press Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper urged Republicans in his State of the State address to find a way to invest in roads and schools in the fast-growing state by avoiding taxpayer refunds. Hickenlooper, a Democrat, made the pitch to the General Assembly on Jan. 14, insisting that lawmakers must determine how to pay for transportation and schools in the long term to keep Colorado’s economy robust and support its growing population. At some point, Hickenlooper suggested, lawmakers should revisit constitutional spending limits that require taxpayer refunds — money the governor wants to use for investment. Republicans oppose his proposal to remove about $750 million in state hospital patient fees from the spending limits known as the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. “If we can’t make this very reasonable change — like many already allowed by TABOR — then what choice do we have but to re-examine TABOR?” the gover-
State Rep. Daniel Kagan, D-Cherry Hills Village, House District 3: “The governor was bold. He unflinchingly spelled out the severe fiscal problem we face in Colorado, but also offered a very practical solution. Conflicting provisions in our Constitution prevent us from adequately funding our schools and transportation infrastructure, and Gov. Hickenlooper’s sensible, straightforward solution — the re-categorization of the hospital provider fee — involves no new taxes or fees. I hope the Legislature will have the courage to implement it this year.”
nor said. Under the limits, he said, his proposed budget calls for a $20 million cut in higher education with no increase in financial aid. Senate President Bill Cadman, a Colorado Springs Republican, is among those who have called the plan illegal, citing a nonbinding legal opinion from the Legislature’s lawyers. Hickenlooper is seeking a formal opinion from the attorney general.
State Rep. Patrick Neville, R-Castle Rock, House District 45: “Our general fund has grown by 47 percent and almost $3 billion since 2009. Yet we have not given a penny to roads until last year when we saw less than 1 percent of the general go to roads. Now the governor thinks it is a “compromise” to raise your taxes because a 47 percent increase was not enough. This is outlandish — we don’t need more of your money. We need to make transportation a priority within the budget we already have.” Sen. Tim Neville, a Republican from south Jefferson County, said Hickenlooper ignored increasing Medicaid spending that many Republicans blame for the financial state. “Unless he solves the Medicaid issue, everything else seems to be pretty moot,” Neville said. Hickenlooper also focused on economic development, affordable housing and the environment. He announced the creation of a National Cybersecurity Intelligence Center in Colorado Springs

The governor wants Colorado to loosen liability rules on builders and developers as a way to create more affordable housing and called for extending a tax credit for those building low-income housing.

Some Democrats say it could hurt consumers and probably wouldn’t lead developers to build cheaper condos. Hickenlooper also said Colorado is putting together a list of contaminated abandoned mines. Such mines have been a fresh priority since August, when 3 million gallons of toxic wastewater spilled from the Gold King Mine north of Silverton. A federal crew accidentally triggered the leak, tainting rivers in Colorado, New Mexico and Utah. The governor said he favors federal “Good Samaritan” legislation to encourage companies and nonprofits to clean up abandoned mines by protecting them from liability for environmental accidents.

Staff report A Falcon man received a 24-year prison sentence in connection with a drunkendriving incident and vehicle pursuit that sparked a fire along southbound Interstate 25. Garrett Dean Neugebauer, 42, was sentenced on Jan. 15 by Douglas County Judge Paul A. King. “Every time someone chooses to drink and drive, they put themselves ahead of the families and loved ones of our community,” said District Attorney George Brauchler. “Whether by pure luck or divine intervention, no one died after Neugebauer’s alcohol-induced rampage in our neighborhoods and streets. He had many chances for therapy and treatment, and it’s clear that the only way for him to take it seriously is to have him incarcerated. He can’t drink and drive in prison.” The prosecution gives this description of the events of Feb. 6, 2015: Neugebauer had a business dinner and drinks in the Denver metro area. He drove a Dodge dually pickup truck that belonged to his boss. Once the event ended, he began to drive south on I-25 toward his home in El Paso County. Around 9:35 p.m., a witness reported seeing the defendant in the area of Castle Pines Parkway and Debbie Lane. The witness said that the defendant drove over several curbs and that he almost hit two cars while driving on the wrong side of traffic. The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office located the defendant five miles south from the point of the initial report. Deputies attempted to conduct a traffic stop near North Castleton Drive. The defendant responded to the deputies by slowly driving into a gas station. He then quickly accelerated and drove his truck out of the location. In the process of driving off, he struck a sedan that was stopped at a stop sign. At this point, numerous DCSO deputies responded and joined the pursuit.
Neugebauer drove southbound on I-25 and utilized the entire roadway, shoulder to shoulder. He cut and swerved in and out of traffic. Deputies reported that the vehicle traveled in excess of 100 mph. The defendant struck vehicles near the Plum Creek Parkway interchange. One car with two passengers was traveling approximately 75 mph when the defendant rearended their vehicle, forcing them to go in excess of 90 mph despite them attempting to brake their car. At milepost 175, DCSO deployed stop sticks and in the process, blew out the defendant’s right front tire. At milepost 177 or 178, sparks from the truck’s front wheels were observed. The sparks caused a 579-foot brush fire in between the mileposts. The defendant continued to drive and pulled into a parking lot at the southwest corner of Plum Creek Parkway and Wilcox Street in Castle Rock. When the deputies approached the vehicle, he refused to comply. The defendant’s blood-alcohol content was .269 percent, over three times the legal limit. The investigation revealed that Neugebauer had three previous alcohol-related convictions. This case resulted in his fourth. The defendant was on probation for a 2012 Larimer County alcohol-related case. He was also wanted in Otero County for a traffic case at the time of the incident. On Oct. 23, 2015, a jury found the defendant guilty of charges including two counts of attempted first-degree assault, vehicular eluding, driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident. Chief Deputy District Attorney Chris Gallo and Deputy District Attorney Megan Rasband tried the case. “When we can look back at a crime and the best thing we can say is that we’re thankful no one died, it’s clear that the community was at serious risk of harm with the defendant’s actions,” Gallo said. “We’re thankful that the judge recognized that and sentenced this defendant to a prison term that is appropriate for the gravity of his actions.”

Street closure idea sparks concerns Community members speak at open house on quiet zone
‘I think the public has been given a limited view as to what the options are to create a quiet zone.’
By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com A traffic study conducted by the Town of Castle Rock showed that intersection improvements will need to be made if the town council pursues the option of closing Second Street to create a downtown train horn quiet zone. Traffic and safety implications of the possible closure were the main focus of an open house on Jan. 12. The idea of closing Second Street was brought to council Nov. 17 by Bob Goebel, the town’s director of public works, as a low-cost alternative to other methods. By closing Second Street, Castle Rock could pursue the creation of a train horn quiet zone in downtown. This method would also require minor modifications to be made to the medians and accesses at Fifth Street and a “No Train Horn” warning sign would be added to Third Street. This option could cost as little as $10,000 and be implemented sooner than the other options, Goebel said. Many residents were in attendance at the open house, which did not follow a traditional meeting format, but rather
Chip Wilson, Castle Rock councilman displayed information on traffic and safety routes on large poster boards for residents. Residents also had the opportunity to talk to experts and provide written feedback, which will be collected and presented to the town council in February. Many residents at the open house expressed their dislike of the option of closing Second Street through written feedback. “I am 100 percent against closing Second Street,” said Craig and Gould resident Jeremy Crum. “I think it’s a bad idea to in any way limit access to downtown. Not only that, but I think you’re limiting access to an elderly population, an economically challenged population, and I think it’s extremely short-sighted. I think it will be bad for traffic and I think it’s a terrible idea.”
Councilman Chip Wilson said he was a little disappointed with the way information was presented to the public, but happy that citizens had the opportunity to see the study. “I think the public has been given a limited view as to what the options are to create a quiet zone,” said Wilson. “The only option that seems to be presented is closing Second Street, which I don’t think a lot of people in Castle Rock are excited about, including me.” Wilson said that the option of installing four-quadrant gates is still the best. “I think with the four-quadrant gates, you can keep all of the at-grade crossings in the downtown open,” Wilson said. “It’s the safest because nobody can circumvent the gates at all to cross and the horns wouldn’t be
required to blow, so it would solve the problem of creating a quiet zone area. It would also enhance safety downtown.” Whether or not council chooses to pursue the full closure of Second Street for the quiet zone creation, intersection improvements will still need to be made because of the partial closure for the Festival Park redesign. The traffic impact study showed several problem areas impacted by the expansion of Festival Park, the biggest being the intersection of Third and Perry streets. To combat the congestion, the study showed that the implementation of a roundabout would be the best solution. “That was kind of a surprise — that as part of Festival Parks enhancements, we’re going to have to look at signaling or roundabouts for other intersections,” Wilson said. “Those are going to have to be voted on and paid for as well.” The presentation provided to attendees of the open house is available online at CRgov.com/TrainHorn. Residents who could not attend the open house are encouraged to go online and send in their feedback. Town council will revisit the issue at a council meeting in February. “I think that the public in Castle Rock need to know that their voice matters,” Wilson said. “They need to be vocal about what they want to see.”

Mad world requires hope, calm approach Do you remember the Billy Joel song “We Didn’t Start the Fire?” Billy Joel takes us musically through a history lesson as he shares everything from Harry Truman to heavy metal, the cola wars and everything in between including Woodstock, punk rock, Watergate, AIDS, crack, terror on the airlines, etc., etc. The chorus goes like this: “We didn’t start the fire, It was always burning, Since the world’s been turning, We didn’t start the fire, No we didn’t light it, But we tried to fight it.” As I have overheard many times over the past several months, “The world has gone mad.” I have even caught myself thinking it or saying it as I watch or read the news. I mean, Billy Joel could probably rewrite the lyrics to the song to include everything from ISIL/ISIS, the three-ring circus of a presidential race, ebbs and flows of social media opinions, rants, debates, immigration, ranchers taking over federal buildings, drug addictions at epidemic proportions, celebrity breakups and connections, weekly professional athlete antics and arrests, and the list goes on and on. Have you found yourself thinking it or saying it, “The world has gone mad?” If so, just remember, “We didn’t start the fire, It was always burning, Since the world’s been
turning, We didn’t start the fire, No we didn’t light it, But we tried to fight it.” There are so many things we can do to “fight it,” many things we can do locally and that may have an impact globally. Those ideas are for another Michael Norton column or email exchange as right WINNING now the focus of this WORDS column is on what we can do for ourselves when we find ourselves reeling from the feeling of the world going mad. Or better yet, going, going, going, gone mad. First we should try and remember that, “It was always burning, Since the world’s been turning.” And generation after generation has survived most of it. Secondly, we need to stay true to our belief system and not get caught up in the attempts at influence of others where it conflicts with our belief system. And lastly, at least for today, we need to live with hope. Not false hope, or empty
promises of hope and change, but the kind of hope that fuels our everyday attitudes, the kind of hope that drives encouragement to make changes or to be a difference maker, and the hope that the next thing we hear and see on the news will be one thing we can build upon in our own personal lives and for our families. We didn’t start the fire, but somebody did. It has been burning since the world’s been turning, and it will always be burning in some way. No, we didn’t light it, not most of us anyway, the majority of the world is still good. But we do try and fight it, and we do that through a commitment to our belief systems, positive actions, and by living with hope. How about you? How are you dealing with a world that has gone mad? Are you caught up in the madness or are you a believer of hope? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we stay committed to our belief system, action, and hope, it really will be a better than good week.

David Bowie died. He died a couple of days after turning 69. We were both born in the same year. I just looked at the calendar and wondered where those numbers came from. Two thousand sixteen. What goes along with it, are my own num-
bers. Bowie was so hot in the ’70s that there were lotteries for his concert tickets. My favorite Bowie song is “China Girl,” which he cowrote with Iggy Pop. Pop was in love with a Vietnamese girl at the time. Pop was raised in Ypsilanti, Michigan, and attended Pioneer High School in Ann Arbor. We would have been schoolmates, if my family had stayed in Ann Arbor. Pop and I were born in the same year too. We have lived very different lives. I was 55 when I retired, and wondered what I was going to do every day. I wondered if I would have enough to do, or if I would wind up not doing very much of anything. It’s not like that. I have never been more productive in my life. I have a much better outlook. Being a schoolteacher at a school where accountability was all over us was wearing me down. And so were the students. More and more of them were being accepted who didn’t belong in college. I was on the Internet today at 4 a.m., and there was the Bowie story. Good morning, Craig. “The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off (The The).” And then on one of my playlists I heard Smith continues on Page 11

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Extreme views won’t help Colorado What a difference between the two Colorado legislators, Rep. Patrick Neville and Sen. Mark Scheffel in your Jan. 14 issue. Both were writing in response to your questions. Sen. Scheffel replied with concise and informative comments that gave a good sense of his priorities for the new legislative session. By contrast, Rep. Neville took the opportunity to set blame, do some name-calling and to generally set a tone of extreme partisanship. Someone should tell Rep. Neville the election is over — he won. Now it’s time to get to the business of the state, and stop the partisanship. Aren’t the lessons of Washington enough for him? There, little is getting done because
extreme partisanship prevents solving the nation’s problems. From Rep. Neville’s comments, it would seem he would be more comfortable in Washington than in Denver. We don’t need those extreme views here — we need people who can roll up their sleeves, put their differences aside and work through the messy business of governing our state. Rep. Neville’s comments are like election sound bites about the evils of liberalism and “the enemy.” Here’s hoping he figures out soon that he has a critical job to do and casting aspersion and creating enemies is not the way to get results.

Social Security rule change coming soon Congress recently approved a budget deal that eliminates two popular Social Security claiming strategies for married couples. Planners have recommended for years that couples take advantage of claiming first under spousal benefits and delaying their own, earning Delayed Retirement Credits. This would allow the benefit to grow until they collect at a later age. This was popular for couples who were similar in age but at least one planned on working to full-retirement age (FRA) and possibly longer. There are only a few months before the April 30 deadline to determine if you are still eligible to claim under the Restricted Application or the File and Suspend. Typical of a government agency, you need a primer to understand the options. Here are the basic strategies using our sample couple, John, age 65, married to Mary, age 62. Both will be FRA at 66. • Mary can collect a reduced benefit at age 62 if she is not working and earning more than $15,720 per year. However, her benefit will be reduced indefinitely. • If Mary turned age 62 prior to Dec. 31, 2015, and John turns 66 prior to April 30, 2016, then John can File and Suspend
(and keep working) so Mary can file a Restricted Application, restricting her benefit to half of John’s. This will allow Mary’s benefit to accrue to a higher value when she is older. She can file at any time just as Patricia Kummer long as she was 62 FINANCIAL before the turn of STRATEGIES the year. • John, however, can only File and Suspend for the purposes of Mary collecting a spousal benefit by April 30. This is part of the 180day grandfather rule that started when Congress passed the law on Oct. 30, 2015. • At age 70 John can collect his maximum Delayed Retirement Credits, which will accrue at 8 percent per year up to age 70. • Mary can turn on her own benefit anytime between age 66 and 70, and collect her Delayed Retirement Credits that
were accruing while she was collecting half of John’s benefit. This works best if John continues working and contributing to his Social Security amount. • The File and Suspend in order for your spouse to file a Restricted Application is expiring. If the wage earner is not age 66 by April 30, and if the spouse was not at least age 62 prior to the end of 2015, then these strategies are no longer available. Keep in mind there are still many tax and income strategies you can plan for around when and who should collect Social Security and at what ages. Unfortunately, the ability to double-dip, such as collecting a spousal benefit while your own accrues, will no longer be available. There are still good planning techniques associated with spouses purposely collecting at different ages. One benefit is when the highest wage earner delays collecting until age 70. This creates the highest possible benefit for the wage earner or the surviving spouse. Non-working spouses are still eligible to collect under their working spouse’s benefit, but the option to collect under a Restricted Spousal benefit and accrue
higher benefits under your own wages is expiring this April. It is important to plan your retirement strategies well, including IRA distributions and other taxable income, as well as calculating the optimum age for collecting Social Security benefits. Some couples may also be impacted by pension plans, Government Offset Provisions, and Public Employee Retiree Account (PERA) offsets. Therefore, meeting with your advisor well in advance of retirement gives you the best planning ideas to enhance your overall retirement.

SAT Continued from Page 1
While cost was a factor in the decision to make the switch, it wasn’t the main reason for the move, Smith said. The switch better fits the Colorado Academic Standards — the expectations of what students need to know and be able to do at the end of each grade — and what students are expected to know in the age of 21st-century education, she said. “The committee’s reasoning was in reaction to a desire to streamline state assessments,” Smith said. “It’s one small part of the overall solution to reduce testing.” The SAT and PSAT will be given each spring for the next five years. This year’s 10th-grade class will be required to take

“My Back Pages.” I guess someone wants me to think about mortality today. “I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now.” I can vividly remember 15, 16, 17 and 18. But 41, 42, 43 and 44? No idea. I know I was a schoolteacher, that’s about it. Keeping a grade book, hiring part-time instructors and feeling sorry for them. They had no benefits. The school had benefits because they were far less expensive than I was. I planned to retire in 2003. One morning I opened an email from the school president. She said she would give me a satchel of money to leave, ostensibly to replace me with less expensive employees. Who wouldn’t have my benefits. There has to be a moment when the mirror tells you the truth. Mine has been telling it for a few years now. And then I’ll read about a death, and a

Matt Reynolds, the Douglas County School District’s chief assessment and system performance officer, said the version of the SAT that students in Colorado will be taking is new and that new study materials for the test probably won’t be available until next year. “With the old SAT, you would lose points for a wrong answer — with the new one you don’t,” Reynolds said. “So, that dramatically changes how someone would approach the test.” The state will pay and provide for the administration of the SAT, as they have done with the ACT. But starting next year, students who wish to take the ACT will need to pay for it themselves. Fagen said it is likely many students will do just that. “I think what we will see is students opting out of the SAT and taking the ACT,” Fagen said. piece of me goes with him. I have squandered some of my life. Maybe I was supposed to. It’s given me gratitude. That’s a strange word. It sounds like it belongs in an AA meeting. I should know. The only Bowie song I own is “China Girl.” His death won’t affect me like the evening I heard from an unlikely source that John Lennon was dead. Or the day that I read that Phil Everly, 74, had died. Woody Allen used to say that his one regret in life was that he wasn’t someone else. My one regret — well, I have had more than one — is that I wasn’t one of the Everly Brothers. They came out of my very first transistor radio. A little Toshiba gem. Bowie was too weird for me at first. Later on, he became very elegant, like Bryan Ferry, only more androgynous.

John Travis
1/22/1943 - 1/13/2016
Jim was born in Kalispell, Montana. Survived by wife Sandy, four daughters and eleven grandchildren. There will be no funeral, but a family memorial at a later date in Montana.
He was a man of strength; his persistence could get him just about anything. He could fix anything, and showed care for his family by making sure everything was in good working order! He loved the outdoors, and took his family on many wonderful adventures in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, skiing, backpacking and especially Jeeping--bouncing along precarious mountain cliffs as his children shrieked with delight along the way. He kept his grandchildren laughing around the campfire with silly stories and songs. Ken enjoyed woodworking, gun collecting, photography, Bronco games, and golfing with his son, Jeff. After his hard work, he relaxed on the porch swing, enjoying a good cigar. He left this life on Monday, January 11th, 2016. He will be missed.

More than treatment Craig Hospital offers patients and their families housing, assistance and support Yurik Resetnikov, left, his wife, Lindsey, and their daughter Kona talk about the day’s activities in the apartment where the family lives while Resetnikov undergoes treatment for a traumatic spine injury at Craig Rehabilitation Hospital. The Craig program also provides families counseling and other assistance while loved ones undergo treatment.

urik Resetnikov and his family didn’t know anyone when they arrived at Craig Hospital from Hawaii in early November. But that changed immediately. “The first hour we got to Craig blew my mind,” said Resetnikov, 40, a firefighter now in a wheelchair with limited use of his arms and legs after a body surfing accident in October. “This place is amazing, and it was unbelievable the way everyone took us in and made us feel welcome. I felt like everyone here was taking care of a family member.” And that’s exactly what Craig staff hope their patients feel because treating the body is just one part of the rehabilitation process. Caring for the spirit of the patient and the family is just as important. Craig continues on Page 13
ABOUT THE FAMILY HOUSING Craig Hospital covers the cost of families staying in the 47 apartments for 30 days. After that, they can find other accommodations or remain in the facility and pay a small fee based on the family’s ability to pay or, in some cases, the Craig Foundation pays the cost of a family’s extended stay. Kenny Hosack, director of marketing and public relations for Craig, said some other area hospitals do have arrangements for family housing, such as the Ronald McDonald Houses in Denver and Aurora. But he said he knows of no area hospitals with the extensive support and assistance programs for families that Craig has.
Craig founded in 1907 Focus shifted to treating brain, spinal cord injuries By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Craig Hospital traces its roots to 1907, when Frank Craig established a treatment “camp” to work with indigent men suffering from tuberculosis. The facility changed and the mission continued for 50 years when, with the decline of cases of tuberculosis, Craig Medical Director Ed Young intensified the hospital’s focus of treating patients with traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries. Kenny Hosack has been with Craig for more than 40 years and he said treatment of patients has always been a focus, but the program grew to also assist families because of Dr. Scott Manley. “Dr. Manley saw the impact of traumatic brain or spinal cord injury to a loved one had on the family. He wanted to help the families and, in 1968, he created the family services department which added a master lever counselor for the patient and the family to the treatment team,” the director of marketing and public relations said. “The family service department expanded over the years and now is the critical care management department.” Craig treats about 520 patients a year and family members accompany the majority of those patients. The hospital also provides treatment for about 1,400 outpatients a year. Stephanie Percival, director of the critical care management department, said the focus is assisting family members while the patient is undergoing treatment. “Our team does a thorough assessment for each patient to determine what he or she needs while here at Craig and at home,” she said. “We also (help) the family deal with challenges ranging from finding a handicapped accessible place to live, to dealing with insurance companies to helping find resources to assist them as they adjust to a new way of life.”

A guide to an adventurous musical year
Try a different era of music There’s no era in which all its music was great all the time. That notion is one of those tricks of memory that make everything seem better in hindsight. Ignore the tendency to stay in something familiar. Instead, investigate music several decades removed from your favorite. For young people, give a spin to music that was big when your parents were in high school. Avoid the obvious stuff — Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin, etc. Depending on when your parents were born, this window into their worlds could lead to some truly spectacular music. In my case, it’s Traffic, Cream and Linda Ronstadt, to name just a few. For adults, investigate the music of the past five years. Music has become more interesting and diverse in the past decade, despite what the blandness of radio would

“When a loved one suffers a traumatic spinal cord or brain injury it also has a major impact on the lives of the family members,” said Stephanie Percival, director of clinical care management. And individuals of all ages and backgrounds, along with their families, come from throughout the world to Englewood’s Craig, which treats patients with traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries. While Resetnikov is in the hospital, his wife, Lindsey, and daughters Mehana, 10, and Kona, 13, are living in Craig’s family housing facility. “Almost as soon as they showed us to our apartment, other families came to meet us and offer to do anything they could to help us,” Lindsey said. “It was pretty amazing and very special for all of us.” Mehana agreed. “We came from the sands of Hawaii to the snows of Colorado,” she said with a smile. “Everyone was so nice. For example, all we had was summer clothes when we got here and the folks here at the hospital got us some coats and winter things.” Support also came from outside Craig. After learning a fellow firefighter was a patient at Craig, crews at the Jefferson Fire Station in Englewood have scheduled weekly visits. The crew also hosted the family at the fire station for Christmas dinner. Resetnikov’s accident occurred in October. “I caught a good wave and hit the bottom as you always do body surfing,” he said. “I tried to get up, couldn’t move and I knew something bad had happened.” Friends pulled him from the water. He wasn’t breath-
When possible, Yurik Resetnikov’s wife, Lindsey, and daughters, Mehana and Kona, join him during treatment sessions. “When I go to water therapy in the pool, Lindsey is usually there with me and, if she can’t make it, Kona joins me,” he said. “It is great to have them there with me during treatment. It encourages me to keep working at it.” A recent recreational therapy session included a pool table, a foosball table and assorted games and activities. The purpose of such sessions is to help the patient develop the skills needed to do things he or she did before their injury and to have fun doing it, said Tom Horan, a certified recreational therapist. At this session, Resetnikov and Lindsey decided to play

allows new talents to hone their skills, and lets old hands enter the ring when they feel like it. By making so much music free, these artists aren’t beholden to any labels or marketing strategies, which allows complete creativity and lyrical honesty. That’s how you get artists like Kendrick Lamar, who made last year’s best and most political album, and Chance The Rapper, who is tackling Chicago’s myriad problems with exuberance and positivity. There’s also Run the Jewels, the duo of EL-P and Killer Mike that combines activism and earthshaking beats. To hear our society in a microcosm, rap is the place to go.

ing and had no pulse. Several people administered CPR for about 20 minutes until the ambulance arrived. Resetnikov arrived Nov. 4 and expects to be at Craig until February. Back home on the big island of Hawaii, extended family members are working to make his home wheelchair-accessible. But before he returns, he and his family will transition to a larger apartment at the Craig facility. The family’s current living facility is like a small apartment with sleeping quarters, a living space and a kitchen. When Yurik joins the family, they will move into a family suite in an adjacent building. The family suite is described as similar to a large hospital room with an adjacent living room and a few cooking facilities. There, with hands-on training sessions, they can learn the skills they will need as a family to support Resetnikov. Each patient at Craig has a treatment team of 10 to 12 people that includes staff members in a variety of specialties, Percival said. The team works with the patient and the family. Peer counseling sessions with current or former patients and their families also take place. “The focus is helping everyone understand the challenges they are facing and ways to deal with those challenges,” Percival said. The team also provides the patient all the equipment and materials he or she will need when they leave the hospital. “We feel they are still our patients when they leave us so we to continue to keep in touch with them,” she said. “We want the patient and the family to know we don’t just help them while they are at Craig, but we try to continue to help them as long as help is needed.” The Resetnikovs said they are grateful for what Craig has done.

Listen to more rap What folk and soul music were during the tumultuous 1960s, rap is to contemporary times. There is no genre more reflective of society’s challenges and opportunities, and the inequality and disenfranchisement still facing so many citizens. Hip-hop’s ability to convey so many messages isn’t new — the social aspect of the music has been front and center since N.W.A and Public Enemy broke through in the late ’80s. But hip-hop artists today have made better use of the Internet than any other genre’s musicians. The online mixtape scene is vibrant and fascinating. It

pool. Resetnikov said he was pretty good before his injury. Horan worked with him, providing aids like a bridge to help him control the cue stick to hit the ball and send it where he wanted to go. Their daughters joined them, learning for the first time how to handle a pool cue. “We have fun doing things like this,” Kona said. As the girls were learning about pool, Resetnikov made a new friend, Jake Mutschler, also in a wheelchair. The two men talked about their experiences and shared information. Mutschler told Resetnikov about an attachment to his wheelchair that enabled him to have water with him all the time. “Talking together like this is helpful to both of us,” said Mutschler, a Boulder resident. “We hear about equipment or things that will help us that we may not know existed. It is great information and it is coming from someone who is experiencing the same challenges we are experiencing.”
rado when we have Red Rocks. But dealing with crowds and traffic can be a pain, and the famous venue seems to continually grow more expensive. Instead, this year visit the area’s great smaller venues, from the Bluebird, Gothic and Ogden (all in Denver) to the Fox and Boulder theaters in Boulder. Don’t forget the Buffalo Rose in Golden and Grizzly Rose in Denver. The cost is almost always cheaper, and even the rowdiest show provides an intimacy and immediacy that is lost in those big places. Most of my favorite concerts have been in small venues. And I wish you the same experiences this year. Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week.

Helpful hints to land first job Toyour advertise Gain some relevant experience. While college is the best time to gain some experience that’s relevant to your field, that does not mean you can’t still earn an internship now that you have donned your cap and gown and received your diploma. Many businesses look to recent graduates to fill their internships, as recent grads have years of study under their belts and, because they are no longer enrolled in classes, more flexibility than current students. If the job market in your chosen field is tepid, start looking for internships. These can be a great way to start making some professional contacts, and many people find themselves ultimately working full-time for the company where they first landed an internship.
Another way to establish an online presence
is to beginbusiness a blog. The blog should nothere, be your used as a tool to discuss your personal life, but rather to express your thoughts on topics relevant to the career you hope to pursue. Demonstrating an understanding or even just a passion for the industry can be a great way to show prospective employers that you are looking for a career and not just a job.
call Karen at 303-566-4091
Establish an online presence. Another way for recent graduates to get noticed is to establish a positive online presence. Something as simple as creating a profile on the professional networking site LinkedIn can help recent graduates get noticed by prospective employers. Even if you have little or no relevant professional experience, create a profile that includes your education history, interests, accolades or awards you earned while in school and even a brief summary of your career goals.
Join a professional organization. Other options to network and improve your chances of landing your first job can be attained by joining a professional organization. Many such organizations welcome new members, even those with relatively little or even no professional experience. Your university may even sponsor such an organization and host regularly scheduled forums relevant to your industry. Such forums often feature lectures or talk sessions with already established professionals who can provide advice on landing a first job or internship or furnish grads with industry contacts who might offer similar help. Memberships in such organizations is often free or inexpensive, so take advantage of this opportunity if it presents itself.
Use the resources at your disposal. Many college graduates are unaware that they have valuable resources at their disposal that can greatly increase their chances of securing a job out of college. The career services office at the university is an invaluable resource that is plugged into the business community in its town or city. Such an office can connect you will fellow alumni, many of whom want to help their fellow graduates establish their careers. A career services office also can help new graduates fine tune their resumes and cover letters so they have a greater chance of landing a job. Parents also might be a great resource in your job hunt. Your parents may have a career’s worth of professional contacts who might be able to help you land a job. Don’t be hesitant to ask your parents for help.
Hope for humanity lies behind intense story of alien empire By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “I wanted to turn convention on its head and tell a story of a character who could definitely be a villain, but definitely isn’t. Basically a dark story rooted in hope rather than the apocalypse … It’s dark, it’s intense, it’s grim, but the world behind the story is one rooted in hope for humanity’s very near future on earth.” Mason Torall says he always wanted to tell stories, and his novel “The Dark Element” is born out of a story he came up with in sixth grade. “Originally I thought that meant Hollywood blockbusters, but after failing miserably at film school for college, I realized that the written word felt more intimate and much more my style.” “The Dark Element” is available through Amazon. Torall lived in the Littleton area near Columbine until 1998, “when we moved east of Parker so we could have horses and a dog boarding kennel.” His parents divorced soon after the move and “teen years were messy (whose isn’t, though).” He credits his schooling with giving his writing a boost. He attended the nontraditional Rocky Mountain Expeditionary School in south Denver for high school, “where they teach that rote memorization isn’t learning and learning to think and be curious is more important than winning …” A bit of a synopsis: “Unity took us to the stars. The stars brought aliens to earth. Our trust cost us everything … A hungry alien empire called ‘The Collective’ has betrayed humanity, Earth is taken. Day by day the ruthless Overseer harvests the planet we worked so hard to save and Cover of “The Dark only a group of individuElement” by Mason als have found any success against him. The Elementals. Torall. Courtesy photo Damien Vilan is one of those human enigmas …” By day, the 25-year-old writer works as a pharmacy tech for Kaiser and writes when he can. He moved home to Parker and ran his own Kickstarter, started in 2014, to fund publication of “The Dark Element,” which is down to limited copies now. He originally saw it as the first of a five-part sci-fi epic and is a workaholic, he says. He cherishes living alone and looks forward to days of nonstop writing at some future point. Other interests: Denver’s craft beer scene, “and I’m a committed nerd with ‘Star Wars’ tabletop games. I’m slowly returning to the hiker’s life that we Coloradans consider a prerequisite to living here (as it should be).” He has a signing scheduled for 1 to 4 p.m. Jan. 23 at Dry Dock Brewing Company South Dock, Hampden Villa, 15120 E. Hampden Ave., Aurora. (Bring a book if you have one — copies are limited, he says.) Watch for episode 2!

Southwestern art shines in Denver exhibit Painters were part of Taos movement a century ago
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “A Place in the Sun: Paintings of the Southwest by Walter Ufer and E. Martin Hennings” is in the Gallagher Gallery on the first floor of the Hamilton Building/ Denver Art Museum. The exhibit fills the space with images of the sunshine, landscapes and people these Europe-trained artists found in Taos, New Mexico. Both achieved national prominence, exhibiting in major U.S. shows, while they were painting in the early 20th century as members of the lively Taos artists’ colony, but they are less recognized today. As a window on a place and time, as well as examples of expertly crafted work by a pair of German-American painters (originally based in Chicago), these paintings will be of interest to many local art lovers. The exhibit runs through April 24, when it will travel to the Philbrook Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma, which is known for its Western art collections. In a catalog introduction by DAM director Christoph Heinrich, he speaks of the museum’s nationally recognized Western American art collection and an initial exhibit, “Picturesque Images of Taos and Santa Fe” in 1974 and a more recent “Art in New Mexico 1900-1945” in 1987. In 2001, the Harmsen collection was given to the museum, and in 2011, the Western collection of Henry Roath was
IF YOU GO “A Place in the Sun: Painting of the Southwest by Walter Ufer and E. Martin Hennings” runs through April 24 in the Gallagher Gallery on the first level of the Hamilton Building/Denver Art Museum. It is included in general admission.

received, which included major canvasses by most of the Taos painters. In 2012, the collection of Dr. George C. and Catherine M. Peck meant that “today, the museum’s holdings are as good as any art museum and a strength of the Western American collection,” according to Heinrich. Thomas Brent Smith is curator and editor of the handsome catalog, which is dedicated to Henry Roath. Walter Ufer (1876-1936) and E. Martin Hennings (1886-1956), like many American art students of their day, studied art in Munich, which called itself “the art city,” developing great skill with the brush and palette. Both were children of Germanborn parents. They met as art students in Chicago, a city increasingly visible in the arts world after the 1893 Chicago World’s Columbian Exposition. When they returned from Europe, as war loomed, both found support from a syndicate of wealthy Chicago business-
men who encouraged a focus on the American Southwest and would finance the artists’ living expenses in exchange for a given number of canvases. Ufer first visited New Mexico in 1914, according to Smith’s catalog introduction, and “found an environment that suited his painting and subjects that suited his idea of creating a distinctively American art.” Henning’s first visit was in 1917 (he had been occupied with commercial artwork in Chicago) and he returned four years later, settling in for longer periods and becoming a member of the Taos Society of Artists. The two were markedly different in temperament and approach to painting. Ufer painted “alla prima,” layering wet paint over wet paint with a spontaneous effect. “I design the painting there. I don’t make any small sketches of my models first, but put my full vitality and enthusiasm into the one and original painting,”
he said. Hennings methodically planned and painted his canvases, with numerous preparatory sketches. As he painted, he allowed layers to dry between applications of paint. “A painting is a great adventure — thinking over the subject — making many sketches, designing, composing, organizing, planning its color, its lighting, shadows and interweaving contrasts — until you’re certain it has everything for a strong and effective painting. Then you go to work on your canvas with your models,” he wrote. This survey of work by two American painters includes about 40 works, including important paintings that won national awards. Both found inspiration in the American Indian and Hispanic people they met — some became regular models — and the distinctive landscape that surrounded the town of Taos — a destination that continues to attract many of us today.

Douglas County downs Rock Canyon Huskies storm past Jaguars, 68-46 By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County’s girls basketball team has already won more games than last season, and it opened the Continental League campaign with a 68-46 win over Rock Canyon on Jan. 15 in the Huskies’ gym. “I’m extremely excited about how our season has gone,” said second-year Douglas County coach Todd Dickson. “Our kids are playing really, really hard and buying into a new system. We have two more wins than last year, and this was actually our first home opening conference win for our seniors. They won one game in league last year.” Douglas County is 9-5 overall and got off on the right side of the ledger in the tough Continental League. Rock Canyon saw its four-game winning streak snapped, and the Jaguars are 4-9 overall. Key moments Douglas County went on a 12-0 run as Rock Canyon was scoreless for final 4:03 of the first period, and the Huskies grabbed an 18-4 lead. “We just started off really slow, really flat,” said Rock Canyon coach Becky Mudd. “We got down big early and had to change some of the things we wanted to do. We never could close the gap.” Key players/statistics Olivia Vier, a 5-foot-10 sophomore, paced the Huskies with 24 points. Senior Clara Larson finished with 16 points and a team-high seven rebounds. Junior Jordan Acosta added 11 points for Douglas County, which played without injured starter Gabby Haneke and sixthplayer Sydney Avrin. Acosta had eight assists. Vier leads the league in steals and scored the first points of the game on a layup after a steal. Vier had eight assists to raise her season average to 4.6. Julia Doherty was the Jaguars’ top scorer with 14 points, and Katie DiDonna, the league’s leading rebounder with an average of 12.9 a game, finished with 13 points.

Douglas County’s Jordan Acosta looks for a way around Rock Canyon’s Julia Doherty during the Huskies’ 68-46 win on Jan. 15. Photos by Jim Benton They said it “This is like no other team that this program has seen,” said Acosta. “It’s been a long time since any of us have felt a win like this, especially with an opening league game. We have an amazing coach, and he is really building the program with all these younger kids.” Douglas County has just three seniors on its team. “We’re pretty young,” admitted Dickson. “We are developing our young kids. That’s how you have to build a program.” Acosta said the big difference this season is the intensity. “We always treat each game with the highest level of intensity and highest amount of energy. And then the results will come. We work really hard in practice to make the games seem easier. The Rock Canyon game was our building block. This was a step up.
It’s different going from nonconference into league. This was a great eye-opening experience, and we’re just going to get better every game.” Rock Canyon needs to regain confidence. “We started off the season really struggling to figure out who we are and what we could do and then came back from Christmas break and won four in a row,” said Mudd. “It was a great confidence boost for us. Then to come out flat against Douglas County, we quickly went back to that place of doubt that we need to overcome. We need to be able to play with confidence and effort.” Going forward Douglas County plays host to Ponderosa Jan. 22 while Rock Canyon is a home the same night to face Chaparral.

Pregnancy doesn’t slow down coach Valor Christian girls basketball coach Jessika Caldwell likes to be hands-on and very demonstrative during practice. That didn’t change while she was pregnant. With the baby due in just days, Caldwell was still out on the court demonstrating moves — and some of her players were a little worried. “There were definitely some times when we wanted her to calm down because she is so passionate and loves the game,” said Valor senior Heidi Hammond. Caldwell, whose son Boden was born Jan. 5, said she just “kind of made it work.” “This was my third go around,” she said. “The girls probably got a little more nervous than I did. I was out there showing them what to do, and they were like, ‘Eek.’” Caldwell missed Valor’s game Jan. 6 against Wheat Ridge but was back guiding the Eagles Jan. 8 against Golden. She has two other children, Emersyn and Bryce. “She was confident and got back on the floor so quick, it was incredible,” Hammond said. “We love having her back.” Green Mountain grad a college standout Green Mountain graduate Ryan
Stephan is having a stellar season for Colorado Mesa’s basketball team. The 6-foot-10, 250-pound senior ranked among the top 25 in nine different NCAA Division II statistics before last weekend’s games. He Jim Benton led the nation with 10 and OVERTIME double-doubles picked up his 11th on Jan. 16 against Adams State. He was second in defensive rebounds with 8.8 per game, fourth with 122 free throws made and fifth with a 25.3 scoring average. Top girls swimming times According to the Jan. 13 report compiled by PrepSwimCo.com, Valor Christian senior Brooke Stenstrom has the best Class 4A times in three events. The defending Class 4A 50-yard freestyle state champion swam a time of 23.54 seconds in that event and a 51.81 in the 100 freestyle. She, her sister Lindsay, Madison Hoehn and Abbey Owenby have the top 4A time of 3:32.19 in the 400 free-
style relay, a school record. Owenby, a sophomore, is the fastest in the 4A 500 freestyle with a 5:01.48 clocking. Rock Canyon senior Abigail Kochevar, two-time defending 100-yard backstroke champion, has the best Class 5A times of 54.74 in the 100 backstroke and 23.79 in the 50 freestyle. Heritage sophomore Kylie Andrews’ time of 51.78 is the best among 5A swimmers in the 100 freestyle. McCaffrey, Pugh to be honored Christian McCaffrey and Mallory Pugh will be honored during the April 19 Colorado Sports Hall of Fame induction and awards banquet at the Denver Marriott City Center. McCaffrey, the former Valor Christian athlete, is the Amateur Athlete of the Year for the 2015 calendar year. He is a sophomore running back for Stanford and was named the Associated Press Player of the Year. He was the Heisman Trophy runnerup after setting an NCAA record with 3,864 all-purpose yards. Pugh, a senior at Mountain Vista, is the girls High School Athlete of the Year. Pugh was tabbed as the Gatorade Colorado Girls Soccer Player of the Year and the National Player of the Year. She is a member
of the United States U20 national team. From gymnastics to diving It seems like more and more divers are former gymnasts who have switched to the water. Douglas County junior Lexie Barker, who competes for the Douglas County/ Castle View team, is a new diver who won the event at the Smoky Hill Invitational with 462 points. She liked gymnastics, but injuries took their toll. “I’ve been diving a little over a year,” she said. “I was a gymnast for nine years and I had like seven stress fractures in my back, so I had to retire. My parents told me to try diving, and I kind of fell in love with it.” Ralston Valley’s Neal leads the way After the completion of games on Jan. 16, Ralston Valley’s Cody Neal was the state’s leading scorer in hockey. He has 32 points on 18 goals and 14 assists. He has three power-play and two short-handed goals. Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media.

Taxes Continued from Page 1
“It’s similar to the late ’90s, early 2000s,” Frizell said. “That’s the last time we saw this kind of increase in Douglas County.” To reappraise a home, the assessor’s office uses the market approach, which studies home sales in each specific area. The 2015 reappraisals used sales from July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2014. “It’s important to note that we don’t value property in Highlands Ranch the same as in Castle Rock — they are two different markets with different sales,” Frizell said. “For example, we only use sales in The Meadows to value Meadows houses.” Property taxes are determined by multiplying the assessed property value by the mill levy and dividing it by 1,000. “This is not the county making the decision,” Frizell emphasized. “There’s a lot that goes into it. The real estate market is robust. That combined with no decreases in mill levies outside of the school district makes taxes higher.” But while checks are written to Douglas County, the county does not keep all the tax money. Of the total taxes due, 18.774 percent goes to Douglas County. The rest goes to various taxing authorities within the county, including the Douglas County School Dis-
trict, the library district, water and sewer, fire and law enforcement. There are 178 taxing authorities throughout Douglas County that are levying taxes for 2015. Each taxing authority has its own mill levy, and residents will see different taxing authorities on their statement depending on which district they live in. “We want to prepare folks that they will see an increase and we want them to understand where the money is going,” Frizell said. “While they write the check to the county, those dollars are distributed to the entities that provide services to that property.” Residents will either receive a postcard or a full statement in the mail depending on whether they escrow taxes through their mortgage or not. Either way, residents have the ability to view their statement in full online at douglascotax.com. “I encourage folks to go online and look at their tax bill,” Douglas County Treasurer Diane Holbert said. “We are also encouraging people to pay online this year. E-checks are free and we accept all major credit cards.” Postcards and statements will also have QR codes, which residents can scan with a smartphone or tablet to be brought straight to their individual tax statement online. The next reappraisal process will begin this summer and study home sales from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2016. Property will be reassessed again in 2017.

All Wrong going in the right direction Local band proving it has what it takes to succeed
By Katie Pickrell Special to Colorado Community Media The four teens who make up the punk-indie band All Wrong use their life experiences to compose music that connects with their generation: They write about girls. They write about other bands. But they also write about loss, depression and mental health challenges. “We’ve all had our own problems in the past,” said band member Tyler Felske, a senior at Mountain Vista High School in Highlands Ranch. “Getting it down in lyrics or in poetry is extremely helpful. Cliché as it sounds, loss inspires songs.” Besides Felske, who plays guitar and sings, the other band members are Kayson Clarke, lead bassist and backup vocalist; Aaron Albury, the drummer; and guitarist Nick Gunnare, also a vocalist. Bailey Gordon sometimes steps in on vocals. All members except for Clarke are seniors at Mountain Vista. Clarke graduated from ThunderRidge High School last year. Just over a year old, the band has its own line of merchandise, has released its first album and is recording its second EP. It also is headlining at the Marquis Theater in Denver on Jan. 30. It played the Marquis for the first time last November. Mountain Vista senior Noah Hirshorn was among the more than 100 fans at the November Marquis show. “It was great to be able to see his band actually play a pretty legit venue,” Hirshorn said about his friend, Felske. “They have talent beyond just playing instruments. They have the talent of musicians.” All Wrong shared the stage with other local bands such as 888, Defy You Stars
Kayson Clarke plays bass during the band’s November concert at the Marquis. “The performing key is the biggest motivating factor of what we do,” Clarke said. “Even as small as we are now, a lot of people would love to be able to play shows in front of a crowd the way we do.” Photos courtesy of Jordan Altergott shorn said. and Almost Maine. “After our Mar“That show was IF YOU GO quis show, we had a surreal,” Felske lot of fans come up said. “We had seen What: All Wrong concert to us and say that some of our favorWhere: Marquis Theater, 2009 Larour music, lyrically, ite bands perform imer St., Denver got them through a at the Marquis, so When: 7 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 30 rough time or even to share a stage Cost: $8 online or $10 at the door just a day at work,” with them is such Visit: themarquistheatre.com Clarke said. an honor.” To find out more about All Wrong Gordon, the Many stuand its shows, go to AllWrongCO. band’s occasional dents attended All bandcamp.com or Facebook at All vocalist, also recogWrong’s Marquis Wrong and Instagram at AllWrongnizes that connecshow, not only CO. tion. because of the con“When I met nection they share the band and started to relate to them, with band members, but also because of I realized, ‘Hey, it’s not just me who’s the connection with their music, Hir-
going through this,’” she said. “Because of that connection, we understand each other and incorporate it lyrically. That understanding is how we reach a lot of the fans.” Gunnare always takes a moment during each show to talk about depression and how people will always be there to help out. A lead writer, he’s transcribed his personal struggles into lyrics and music. “Because of what I’ve been through,” Gunnare said, “a lot of my experiences write the songs for me.” For Mountain Vista counselor Emma Schofield, the connection between music and mental health is not surprising. “I’ve had several students come to me when they’re having an issue and they’ll go through the process of journaling or writing it down and it makes them feel better,” she said. “With musicians who are composing, it helps them to process whatever they’re going through in a very therapeutic way.” Though Gunnare uses music as an emotional outlet, he also hopes to make it a career. “My ultimate goal would be to do this as a job and have it make the money for me,” he said. “I think that’s a main part of what keeps me going.” The band released its first album, “Dead Eyes,” in May. It began working on its second album, “We’re Bitter,” in December. And band members hope this is only the beginning. “The goal is for people to look at us and say, ‘All Wrong is something I can get away from the world with,’” Clarke said, “‘All Wrong is something that I can be myself (with) because … All Wrong is all right.’” Katie Pickrell is a senior at Mountain Vista High School and editor of Mountain Vista Media.
Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF JAN. 18, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Aspects call for care in preparing material for submission. Although you might find it bothersome to go over what you’ve done, the fact is, rechecking could be worth your time and effort. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The week is favorable for Bovines who welcome change. New career opportunities wait to be checked out. You also might want to get started on that home makeover you’ve been considering. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might have to be extra careful to protect that surprise you have planned, thanks to a certain snoopy someone who wants to know more about your plans than you’re willing to share. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Family ties are strong this week, although an old and stillunresolved problem might create some unpleasant moments. If so, look to straighten the situation out once and for all. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Although the Lion might see it as an act of loyalty and courage to hold on to an increasingly shaky position, it might be wiser to make changes now to prevent a possible meltdown later. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Your gift for adding new people to your circle of friends works overtime this week, thanks largely to contacts you made during the holidays. A surprise awaits you at the week’s end.

TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Don’t hide your talents. It’s a good time to show what you can do to impress people who can do a lot for you. A dispute with a family member might still need some smoothing over. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Be open with your colleagues about your plan to bring a workplace matter out into the open. You’ll want their support, and they’ll want to know how you’ll pull it off. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Trying to patch up an unraveling relationship is often easier said than done. But it helps to discuss and work out any problems that arise along the way.
Answers
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) While your creative aspect remains high this week, you might want to call on your practical side to help work out the why and wherefore of an upcoming decision. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Dealing with someone’s disappointment can be difficult for Aquarians, who always try to avoid giving pain. But a full explanation and a show of sympathy can work wonders. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Getting a job-related matter past some major obstacles should be easier this week. A personal situation might take a surprising but not necessarily unwelcome turn by the week’s end. BORN THIS WEEK: You can be both a dreamer and a doer. You consider helping others to be an important part of your life. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

If you believe that your lender or servicer has failed to provide a single point of contact (38-38-103.1 CRS) or they are still pursuing foreclosure even though you have submitted a completed loss mitigation application or you have been offered and have accepted a loss mitigation option (38-38103.2 CRS), you may file a complaint with the Colorado Attorney General (720-508-6006) or the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (855-411-2372) or both. However, the filing of a complaint in and of itself will not stop the foreclosure process.

Baby Boomers Benefit From Knee Arthritis Treatments Their Parents Could Only Dream About Cutting-Edge Treatments and Technology Are Helping Knee Arthritis Sufferers Avoid Knee Replacement Surgery and Stay Active In Their 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and even 80’s
If you would like to discover a safe and effective medical treatment for knee arthritis pain and stiffness that has already helped thousands just like you, this will be the most important information you ever read. Here is why: Back in 2010, a medical clinic in Colorado Springs, CO named Osteo Relief Institute did something that would change the lives of thousands and thousands of people. They developed a knee arthritis treatment program specifically designed for the knee arthritis sufferers who not only want to relieve pain and stiffness... but also want to stay active. As patients got results... the word spread like wildfire. Now the clinic receivesan overwhelming number of new patient inquiries per
month. It seems like every knee arthritis sufferer in the area wants this treatment. Some travel as many as 3 hours to be treated by the experts at Osteo Relief Institute. But here’s where the story gets really good... for YOU Because they knew how frustrating knee arthritis is and how life changing relieving their pain was... many patients wanted to share their story with others. That’s why they are willing to travel to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and tell their stories for a special documentary being made about Osteo Relief Institute and their knee pain treatment methods. Patients like William La S. flew to Florida and told how he couldn’t play golf due to arthritis pain - and now after
“ I wish I had known this 5 years ago...”
“ I just thank God for this treatment”
“I’ve had trouble with my knee walking. I’m a golfer and want to play golf but I couldn’t. I made the call and went down [to the Osteo Relief Institute] and it’s the best thing I ever did. It’s just – now I can play golf, I can walk, I can climb stairs, I can do things I did many years ago”. “It’s the smartest thing I ever did. Since I’ve been going to Osteo Relief for my knees I don’t take any pills, I take no over the counter medication...” “This is a good alternative to surgery. I am so glad I went. I’m so confident I feel so good about it and I recommend it to everybody.” “Call up Osteo Relief. What have you got to lose. Have them check it out and they may help you.” “I wish I had known this five years ago.”
“I really, couldn’t hardly walk. They wanted to replace both my knees, and I did not want both my knees replaced.” “Since I had the treatment I had been able to walk, I was able to walk up the steps. I was able to bend my knee and I’m able to shop in the supermarket with the carriage, which I was never able to do all the time - now I’m able to walk down the street and able to walk in the park. I’m able to even lift things and go up the steps which is a miracle. I just thank God for the treatment.” “It made me feel like a new woman. It was amazing.” ”I can’t thank that doctor and staff enough for what they had done for me. I would tell anyone who has gone through what I have to take the step.” ”I wish I’d known about this option years ago.”
