School board poised to pick superintendent Interim leader Erin Kane did not make the list of three finalists BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
BLAZING A TRAIL: Meet
women and girls who are changing perceptions about their place in the fields of science and math P7
The Douglas County School Board is expected to announce its choice for the permanent superintendent position this week, paring down a list of three finalists. Erin Kane, who has served as interim superintendent for nearly two school years, is not among the finalists for the job that became available after the departure of Elizabeth Fagen in July 2016. School board President David Ray said he could not comment on why Kane wasn’t selected as a finalist, but he commended her work in the school district over the past 18 months. The three finalists — each a superintendent for a district much smaller than the Douglas County School District — have “unique” skill sets, talents and gifts that will help the district move forward, he said. “In our interviews with them, we really felt that they were very passionate and knew Douglas County well. All of them did their research,” Ray said. “They weren’t just looking for another superintendent position. They were looking for Douglas County — they wanted to be in Douglas County.” According to a March 29 email to Douglas County families from Ray, the three finalists to lead the district of 68,000 students are: • Educational specialist Karen Brofft, superintendent of the Lewis-Palmer School District in Monument. She has 28 years of experience in Colorado school districts, including 20 years in Douglas County. • Daniel Clemens, superintendent of North Kansas City Schools in Kansas City, Missouri. He has 23 years of experience serving in Missouri public school systems. • Thomas Tucker, superintendent of Princeton City Schools in Cincinnati. He has 29 years of experience serving in the Kansas and Ohio public school systems. SEE FINALISTS, P10

Family story is face-off of fear and faith
his is the girls’ story. That’s what doctors told Kendal and Tyler Conley as they worried and prayed and waited for their twin babies, fighting a rare medical condition, to be born. This is a story, too, about the marvels of medicine: That’s what Kendal and Tyler will tell you saved their babies. But more than anything, this is a story about family. And love. And faith that a happy ending would be written. ••••• Ann Macari Meet the Conleys: Kendal is 33, an acHealey count manager for a wine and liquor distributor. Tyler, 38, in software sales, works from home. They live in Golden and have a 2-yearold son, Beckham, whom they call “little man.” Beckham now also has two little sisters, whose story began June 25, when Kendal’s home pregnancy test unequivocally read “PREGNANT.” Eight weeks later, the ultrasound technician began laughing. “Do you have twins in the family?” she asked Kendal and Tyler. “Nooo....,” Kendal said. And then, “Oh, my gosh.” “Yes,” the technician said, “there’s two in there.” Kendal and Tyler were ecstatic. Beckham ran around the doctor’s office in circles. But a hint of concern shadowed the happiness when the ultrasound also showed the fetuses, who were identical twins each in their own amniotic sacs — bags of fluid in which the fetuses grow and develop —were sharing one placenta. That meant a higher risk for the rare and serious Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome, or TTTS, which in simple terms means babies share blood vessels that lead to one baby receiving extra blood flow and the other baby getting too little. Untreated, one or both of the babies die 80 to 100 percent of the time.

But with treatment, the outcome is drastically different: One or both of the fetuses survive in 96.5 percent of pregnancies; both survive in 83 percent of pregnancies, a recent review of cases at Children’s Hospital Colorado in Aurora shows. Most cases, however, have one or more complicating factors that can reduce survival rates. At 12 weeks, the couple began consulting with specialists from Children’s Colorado Fetal Care Center. “We know that when they share a placenta . . . almost all the time you’re going to see interconnecting vessels, but about 15 percent of the time, that will cause problems,” said Dr. Nicholas Behrendt, one of the maternal fetal medicine specialists working with the Conleys. “We watch these babies very closely.” From then on, doctors ordered ultrasounds every three days to monitor any changes in the amount of fluid in the amniotic sacs and make sure kidneys, bladders and hearts were working properly. If TTTS were to kick in, the kidneys of the baby receiving too much blood flow would essentially work overtime, filling up the sac with the extra urine being excreted. The bladder would be larger; the heart would beat faster to help the kidneys work harder. SEE HEALEY, P21

Starting an art career I loved art at an early age and in 1982 I was the recipient of a full-tuition scholarship to Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design. I was exposed to many different mediums but decided to major in commercial art. I worked as a freelance graphic designer for many years and I’m still working in the advertising field. I decided to pursue my passion for painting with watercolor in 2008 after some big life changes which included a divorce. I painted purely for fun and relaxation. I entered a few art shows and in 2014 I was asked to be in a local gallery. I paint exclusively with watercolor from my own photographs and my passion is color. I love to paint local historic buildings and scenery from Castle Rock and across Colorado. In 2016 my painting “Castle Rock Feed & Supply” was chosen for publication in the book “Splash 17,” which features the best of watercolor art from around the world. Winning art I was excited to enter the art competition for the 100-year celebration of the Douglas County Fair & Rodeo. The fair is such a rich part of the history of Castle Rock and Douglas County. Local history provides painting inspiration for me, so this was a perfect fit. Using some fun techniques with color, I chose to paint a collage representing several aspects of the fair throughout the

The Human Library project seeks volunteers to be ‘books’ Douglas County Libraries hosting event that aims to fight stereotypes BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A worldwide movement called The Human Library that aims to fight stereotypes and bring people together will be coming to Castle Rock in the fall, but before then Douglas County Libraries, which is hosting the event, is looking for volunteers to act as “books” during the event. The Human Library project was developed in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2000. At the events, people from various backgrounds act as “books” for attendees to “check out.” When someone “checks out a book,” they are really engaging in conversation with someone who, in theory, will have a different life perspective or different life experiences to share with them. Books can be virtually anyone with a story to tell — examples listed
on the organization’s website include someone who’s unemployed, a single mother and a refugee, among several others. Today, the organization estimates The Human Library has traveled to more than 70 countries. Douglas County Libraries will host a local version of The Human Library on Sept. 23 at its Castle Rock location. They are accepting applications from community members who want to volunteer as books in the event until May 6. Ideal candidates will have unique, personal stories they are willing to share through conversations with event attendees called “readers,” said Tiffany Curtin, the adult literacy specialist with Douglas County Libraries. “We’re looking for people who have life experiences that maybe, when they were going through those experiences, it would have been helpful for them to have somebody who had a similar experience, to talk to,” she said. “It’s pretty open, as far as the folks who can be a good book.” SEE LIBRARY, P27

Sheriff’s office likely to receive more safety equipment County commissioners will be asked to approve $450,000 budget request
WHAT THEY’VE REQUESTED
BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
After the 2016 shooting in Dallas that killed five police officers, the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office went to county commissioners with a budget request for more armored shields, worried a similar event could unfold at home. Commissioners approved their request and the sheriff ’s office received 20 shields. On Dec. 31, 2017, one of those shields was carried by Douglas County Deputy Taylor Davis during the shooting in Highlands Ranch that injured two civilians, four officers and killed Deputy Zackari Parrish. “We are convinced,” Douglas County Undersheriff Holly Nicholson-Kluth said of the shield, “it saved her life.” Following the New Year’s Eve shooting, Douglas County commissioners are preparing to authorize another budget request of nearly $450,000 worth of equipment for the sheriff ’s office. Official approval may come as soon as their April 10 business meeting.
The shield carried by Deputy Taylor Davis during the Dec. 31 shooting that killed Deputy Zackari Parrish is believed to have stopped three bullets from striking her as well.
SEE SAFETY, P11
Douglas County commissioners are likely to approve a budget request from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office on April 10 for $450,000 of safety equipment in response to the death of Deputy Zackari Parrish in the New Year’s Eve shooting that left six other people injured. Among the items requested are: • Point-blank shields for officers and ballistic shields for vehicles. • Rifle plates that can be inserted into officer’s bullet-resistant vests. • Vests for officers needing replacements and for new employees. • Tools to open doors, so officers do not need to kick them open. • Nearly 70 additional rifles to outfit the entire patrol division. • Rifle suppressors for SWAT team members, which reduce the sound of firing the weapons. Undersheriff Holly Nicholson-Kluth said the agency hopes the suppressors will prevent hearing loss among officers. • Short-barreled rifles for school resource officers and bike patrol to carry at large-scale events like school assemblies or sporting events. They would not be carried all of the time and would be kept in officers’ cars or a safe when not in use. • Tactical Emergency Casualty Care: kits for officers to administer aid to themselves and injured civilians before medical crews arrive to an incident. Includes a tourniquet, combat gauze and chest seal. An additional 50 “officer-down” first aid kits are included in the request.

County commissioner accepts appointment as U.S. marshal for Colorado Republican Party has 10 days from April 1 to fill the seat of David Weaver BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Douglas County Commissioner David Weaver has accepted the appointment of United States Marshal for the District of Colorado, according to a news release issued March 27 by Douglas County. He vacates his seat as county commissioner this week, eight months before the end of his first full term. Weaver “Although my plan had been to not only complete my first term as commissioner and then run for a second term, the honor of this nomination and opportunity to serve in law enforcement at the federal level as the U.S. Marshal for Colorado was an opportunity as a public servant I knew I must do,� Weaver, who previously served as the county’s sheriff, said in the release. “It has been an honor to serve Douglas County for the past 38 years and I hope I leave it a better place.� President Donald Trump nominated Weaver, a Republican, for the role in November. On March 20, the U.S. Senate confirmed Weaver as a nominee. Duties of the position include protecting the federal judiciary, apprehending fugitives, transporting prisoners and
protecting witnesses, a news release from the White House said. Prior to being elected as commissioner of District I in 2014, Weaver served as Douglas County sheriff for two terms. He was employed by the sheriff ’s office for 33 years. The Douglas County Republican Party has 10 days from April 1 to make a decision on who will fill Weaver’s seat as county commissioner, or else Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper would make the appointment. A vacancy committee, formed of about 360 board members, elected officials, district captains and precinct leaders, is waiting on a venue to cast the vote, said Tanne Blackburn, chair of the Douglas County Republicans. She expects the vote to take place on April 9, 10 or 11. Blackburn said it is “most likely� that one of the two Republican candidates running for Douglas County District 1 commissioner in the general election will be appointed. Those candidates are Abe Laydon, an attorney at a law firm in Denver, and Douglas County Treasurer Diane Holbert. Weaver will leave big shoes to fill, the county’s two other commissioners said in the news release. “We will miss Dave’s leadership, his positive approach to problem-solving and the experience he brings to all opportunities and challenges,� Roger Partridge said. Said Lora Thomas: “I’ve known Dave since 1984 when I was a trooper and he was a deputy serving Douglas County. Dave’s concern for Douglas County is obvious and he will be missed.�
Refugee bill aids foreign interpreters for U.S. military STAFF REPORT
The state House gave preliminary approval to a bill to create a pathway to higher education for military translators and other refugees who have been relocated to Colorado from war-torn parts of the world. SB18-087, sponsored in the House by Reps. Michaelson Jenet, D-Commerce City, and Faith Winter, D-Westminster, would grant in-state tuition rates at Colorado’s public colleges and universities to people who meet the United Nations definition of a refugee. “This bill is one way to welcome these unsung heroes to Colorado,� Jenet said in a news release. “As a descen-
dant of refugees who benefited from access to education in this country, I know firsthand the impact this bill will have for many generations simply by educating one.� Among the people who will benefit are those who have been placed in Colorado to save their lives after serving, at significant risk to themselves and their families, as interpreters and guides for the U.S. military in Iraq, Afghanistan and other foreign battlegrounds. “Our country owes these people a debt of gratitude,� Winter said. “This bill will speed their integration into Colorado society.� SB18-087 will go to Gov. John Hickenlooper’s desk to be signed into law.

Numbers of women in STEM fields growing, but equality elusive BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
W
endy Weiman’s high school counselors suggested social work as a good career for her. But even as a child, Weiman knew she wanted to become an engineer. And as she got older, her curiosity for how things work only grew. “I just liked it,” Weiman, 49, said. “I had a desire to learn math and science — specifically civil engineering. You get to design and see things happen. You get to be a part of it all.” Weiman has done just that: She’s the project engineer for North Table Mountain Water and Sanitation District, overseeing the district’s projects and new development. But the path to get there — in fields long dominated by men — wasn’t always easy. “When you’re the only woman, sometimes it’s difficult,” Weiman said. “But as more women enter STEM careers, I anticipate that a lot of the prejudices will go away.” Fighting culture, gender bias The number of women in the engineering field has grown since Weiman graduated with a civil engineering degree from Colo-
rado School of Mines in 1996, but women remain drastically underrepresented in science and engineering careers. According to a 2017 report from the U.S. Department of Commerce Economics and Statistics Administration, women in 2015 filled 47 percent of all U.S. jobs but only 24 percent of STEM — or science, technology, engineering and math — jobs. Studies point to cultural and gender stereotypes and biases that eventually discourage interested girls from pursuing those careers and social and environmental prejudices that can make the workplace difficult for success. “Not only are people more likely to associate math and science with men than with women, people often hold negative opinions of women in ‘masculine’ positions, like scientists or engineers,” a 2010 report by the American Association of University Women (AAUW) concluded. “When a woman is clearly competent in a ‘masculine’ job, she is considered less likable. Because both likability and competence are needed for success in the workplace, women in STEM fields can find themselves in a double bind.” But a growing awareness around the importance of supporting
Wendy Weiman, the project engineer for North Table Mountain Water and Sanitation District, checks the water clarity at the organization’s water treatment plant near Highway 93 and West 64th Parkway in Golden. CHRISTY STEADMAN and encouraging STEM interests among young girls, along with universities’ commitment to providing support systems and changing cultural environments are beginning to make a difference, academics and professionals say. “We believe that teams having diverse perspectives and complementary skill sets generate the best solutions and innovations,” said Mines President Paul Johnson, who is driving an effort to increase
female enrollment from its current 29 percent to 40 percent by 2024, the school’s 150th anniversary. “Thus, we should have a STEM workforce that more closely mirrors our general population. This means we need to roughly double the number of women pursuing STEM careers.” Many of the women entering the field say they are determined to make that happen. SEE STEM, P8

“Don’t be afraid of the reputation that there are no women in STEM because there are,” said Miranda Schiffbauer, a 2017 Arvada West graduate pursuing a degree in civil engineering at Mines, a world-renowned teaching and research university in the engineering and applied science fields that offers expertise in the development and stewardship of the Earth’s natural resources. “And it’s growing.” Her fellow Arvada West graduate Leigh Robinson, studying chemical and biological engineering at Mines, agrees. “If I can be somebody who is a strong leader in perhaps an area that is known to be male-dominated,” she said, “I’ll feel that that is a great accomplishment.” Situations can be challenging According to the 2010 report by the American Association of University Women, girls and boys take math and science courses in roughly equal numbers in elementary, middle and high school, and graduate equally prepared to pursue science and engineering majors in college. However, the report states that fewer women than men pursue those careers and only 20 percent of college graduates who earn a bachelor’s degree in physics, engineering and computer science are women. Their representation continues to decline at the graduate level and again in the transition to the workplace. Percentages of women studying in STEM fields at several area universities vary, but overall indicate a higher number of women enrolling and graduating in those areas. Of the 1,034 bachelor’s degrees in 13 different engineering disciplines that Mines awarded in the 2017 graduation fiscal year — which includes summer and fall 2016 and spring 2017 — nearly 27 percent of them were earned by women. At the University of Denver, 296 degrees in engineering, computer science, natural sciences and math-
‘
FROM PAGE 7
ematics were awarded in the 2017 graduation fiscal year, and slightly more than 52 percent of them went to women. Graduation data show the number of female graduates has increased almost every year since 2014, and enrollment figures at several universities show more women are enrolling in STEM fields. About 27 percent of Metropolitan State University of Denver’s 19,500 students are pursuing a STEM degree — 40 percent of those are female. At University of Colorado-Boulder, 38 percent of students in first-year engineering classes are women. These numbers suggest that more women pursue STEM degrees in Colorado in comparison to the rest of the nation. This could be because the state has a multitude of K-12 STEM school choices and excellent colleges and universities that offer science and technology degrees, said Ana Cross, who leads Lockheed Martin’s Crew Module Engineering Integration Team on Orion and is a director for civil programs at Stellar Solutions. In addition, the state has a number of career choices that offer good pay for doing work in exciting areas, such as space exploration, Cross added. For example, she said, Jefferson County is ranked second in the nation for the private aerospace employment. Young female students need “to know that working in a STEM field is an option for them,” Cross said. Whether it be STEM or non-STEM, it’s important that society shows women that they can pursue and accomplish whatever they want, said Meagen Puryer, 24, a grad student at the University of Denver focusing on mechanical engineering with a concentration in fluids. Puryer will be the first in her immediate family to earn a college degree. “We don’t have to perform one way to fit into society,” she said. “There’s no reason it shouldn’t be equal in the workforce.” Still, the stereotypes exist, showing up in sometimes small ways. Puryer recalled a comment from a male student who sat next to her on her first day of college. Although

he didn’t object to her presence, he did express surprise to see a woman studying mechanical engineering. Since then, Puryer has twice been the only female in her classes. But none of her professors or fellow students has treated her any differently, she said. Christine Reilly, 21, who is pursuing a master’s in aerospace engineering from the University of ColoradoBoulder, said people have told her certain opportunities were given to her because she’s a woman, rather than because of her qualifications. Others expect her to be the note-taker on a project rather than doing a more hands-on job. “It’s not that they intend to do it,” said Reilly, one of about 20 women of the 130 or 140 students in her senior project class. But they are surprised that a woman is pursuing a degree field primarily dominated by men. Reilly also said she has been fortunate to have professors and mentors of both genders who are passionate about their students’ success. “The amount of passion they bring really convinces me that we (women) belong here,” Reilly said. Kylie Auerbach, 13, of Littleton, who says STEM subjects are a good fit for her, is counting on women such as Reilly and Puryer to lead the way.
“My parents always talked to me about the importance of STEM for the future,” Auerbach said. “Especially because they noticed I was interested in math and science more than any other subject.” Auerbach’s best guess is that most of her classes at th e STEM School in Highlands Ranch consist of about 60 percent boys. “But,” she said, “the girls tend to push themselves more and gravitate toward the more accelerated courses.” Simi Basu, a middle school computer science teacher and cyber security coach for kindergarten through 12th grade at the STEM School, notes how important it is to encourage girls’ interests in science and technology areas. “Girls really do want to make a difference, and we need to give them a hand to show them how relevant and how fun STEM can be,” Basu said. “Both girls and boys can explore curiosity and make a change in the world.” Basu came to the U.S. from India after earning a master’s in information technology and an MBA in business administration. For about 14 years, she worked in the corporate computer science field for IBM. SEE STEM, P9
ENGINEERING INTO THE FUTURE — PROFILES IN PERSEVERANCE
Presenting a unified front Although gains still must be made to even the gender balance in STEM fields, the U.S. is at least open to women holding leadership roles in those careers as compared to some other countries. That’s what Nikki van den Heever found. She will graduate from the University of Colorado-Boulder this December with a master’s in civil systems engineering with a focus on engineering in developing communities. Van den Heever runs CU-Boulder’s Engineers Without Borders, and in the summer of 2015, she was the project manager for a project in
Rwanda that implemented rainwater catchment systems. The CU-Boulder team consisted of van den Heever and three men. But in Rwanda, they worked with an additional eight or nine men on the project. “I was making the calls and decisions, but I felt some resistance (from the Rwandan team) because of the cultural differences,” van den Heever said. So she and the rest of her team discussed the issue and discovered the best way to resolve it was to demonstrate a unified approach to van den Heever’s lead.

“We need to close that misconception that only men pursue those jobs,” Basu said. “If girls are engaged and motivated, it can help close the gap in the workforce.” Support programs and role models are key Mentors and and role models of females interested in STEM at a young age must take charge to keep the girls interested in these subjects as they grow older, educators and STEM professionals say. Especially when they begin to think about their future career aspirations. “Getting involved with a STEM career is different than sticking with a STEM career,” said Angela Fioretti, a former graduate research assistant at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden. She is now in Switzerland doing a postdoctoral fellowship where she works with electrical contact material for solar cells. “It’s really important for younger women to see other women in senior positions in STEM careers so that they know it’s a viable path,” said Fioretti, who earned her PhD in material science from Mines in December 2016. Beginning in about middle school, there are STEM-related clubs, extracurricular activities and academic programs that do just that. One of them in the Denver-area is Girls in STEM. After about 20 years working as a licensed mechanical engineer, Wendy Merchant realized there were still more men than women entering STEM careers. So in 2014, she founded Girls in STEM, a local nonprofit that works to inspire middle and high school-aged girls to visualize and empower them to pursue STEM careers. Nowadays, big companies and colleges are looking at ways to attract and retain women to even the numbers in STEM professions, said Karen Ramon, director of operations and teacher adviser for Girls in STEM. “They’re doing their part, but it needs to start earlier than college,” Ramon said. “It’s important for younger girls to know they have a voice, and that they’re not being judged for enjoying STEM subjects. Our goal is to expose them to everything. It’s all about the exposure.” Kim Medina, director of admissions at Mines, agrees. Through partnerships with local schools and community groups, Mines has implemented a number of outreach programs and initiatives to get younger girls more interested and involved with STEM subjects. Special events include Girls and Science at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, which took place March 3, and Girl Scouts Engineering Day. At the University of Denver, annual Engineering Summer Camps and CodeART Workshops aim to get students excited about careers in engineering, mathematics and other science-related fields through hands-on activities. Both camps have specific weeks that they are offered exclusively to female middle and high school students.

WHEN DID STEM BECOME A THING? A 2015 blog post by Liana Heitin Loewus in “Education Week,” a national newspaper that covers K-12 education, notes that Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) became a common educational term — even recognized by Congress — within the first decade of the 2000s, but that educators were starting to combine the subjects before 2001. Another successful program is Mines’ Discover-Explore-Create Technology (DECTech). It is led by female Mines students and designed to foster an interest in STEM among young girls through creative and interactive activities. DECTech was founded in 2012 by Tracy Camp, a professor and the head of Mines’ Computer Science Department, in response to studies that show girls’ interest in science and engineering starts to decline the closer they get to middle school. But Heather McKay, 33, defied the odds: She knew she wanted to pursue a career in aerospace since middle school. “I just thought space was cool,” said McKay of Littleton, who pursued her dreams and graduated from Mines in 2006 with a degree in mechanical engineering and earned her master’s in systems engineering from Mines in 2007. She has worked at Lockheed Martin for about 10 years. Being inspired by a relatable role model helped maintain her interest, McKay said. McKay’s mother, Carol Angel, was an influencer in her life, she said. Angel was a single mom when she started at Lockheed Martin as an administrative assistant and over her 30-year career there, she worked her way up and retired as an engineer. One day, Angel brought McKay to work with her for Lockheed Martin’s annual Young Minds at Work day, which is similar to a bring-your-childto-work day. McKay, who was 10 at the time, got to meet the late Bruce McCandless, a former astronaut who in February 1984 became known for being the first person to fly untethered in space. Now, McKay is the Orion launch abort system manager and works with a team of about 30 people. About 10 are women. At Lockheed Martin, McKay said, men and women have equal opportunity to contribute and succeed in the workplace. “I get to be a part of a team that is
DID YOU KNOW? Florence Caldwell Jones, the first female student at Colorado School of Mines, graduated with a degree in civil engineering in 1898. accomplishing something that has never been done before. We’re trying to go to Mars,” she said. “We need everybody. It takes a whole team to accomplish such a big goal like exploring the universe.” Similarly, eighth-grader Sophia Eakes’ interest in STEM started in fifth grade. She enjoys the teamwork aspect of her STEM courses at Bell Middle School in Golden. “I get to do stuff that I have never gotten to do in any other class,” Eakes said. “It’s so much fun and you realize you can do so many things.” In the sixth grade, she started to learn some basic programming skills, and last year seventh grade, she and her fellow students in an engineering class built a high-quality video game. This year, Eakes is programming robots. And, she said, she plans on continuing her STEM education until she someday becomes a surgeon. Eakes has been involved with Bell Middle School’s Girls in iSTEM Club for about two years. In February last year, she and her friend Maddie Rice won the Jefferson County Public Library’s Girls in STEM Competition. About 50 girls presented 18 projects at the competition, which was judged by Mines’ DECTech. Eakes and Rice won for a bionic hand designed for the biomedical engineering field. “I like solving problems and putting things together,” Eakes said. “I enjoy applying my knowledge to real-world problems that scientists and engineers are working on right now.” Combating misperceptions Despite all these efforts, a change isn’t going to happen overnight, Ramon said, noting that Girls in STEM is still too new of a club to know its effectiveness. And even though Mines is slightly above the national average for women attending the school to pursue a STEM degree, the number of females in freshman and transfer undergraduate classes has plateaued in the past 10 years, Medina said. In 2016, about 28 percent were women, and in 2015, the number was
about 31 percent, she said. Part of the reason for the plateau at Mines may be that female students might have a misperception of what attending Mines would be like, Medina said. She added that females may think, because their male counterparts outnumber them, they would not have many as opportunities to get involved in extracurricular clubs or activities. But it’s actually quite the opposite, Medina said. Aside from its four sororities, Mines hosts an active Women in Science, Engineering and Mathematics office on campus and is home to the largest membership of Society of Women Engineers compared to any other campus in the nation, Medina said. The school strongly encourages campus visits from female high schoolers to help combat any misperceptions, she added. “We’re trying to get them on campus to show them what it’s really like,” she said. “Sometimes, it takes seeing it to believe it.” One example is Girls Lead the Way at the Colorado School of Mines, which took place Feb. 10 this year. The event is an annual conference focused on women in STEM careers, put on in partnership with Mines and the Society of Women Engineers, during which, on average, more than 100 high school girls attend. ‘Diversity makes us richer’ Despite the work still to be done, there’s no doubt progress has been made, academics and professionals say. When Barb Goodman was attending Mines in the 1980s, it was rare for a woman to pursue and enter a STEM career. She was often the only woman in her classes. “Back then, if you liked science or math, you’d go to school to become a teacher,” Goodman said, “rather than a researcher or engineer.” But as a single mother, she wanted a viable career with which to support her two children. She worked two jobs while in college — tutoring math and waiting tables in a restaurant. Often, she and her children did their homework together at the kitchen table. And when Goodman had academic assignments that required a computer, she would hire a babysitter so she could spend the late-night hours — sometimes until 3 a.m. or 4 a.m. — using the school’s computer lab. “It was a lot of hard work for the four years that I was there,” Goodman remembered. “But I was passionate.” Goodman graduated in 1984 with degrees in chemical engineering and petroleum refining engineering. Now in her 60s, Goodman is executive director of institutional planning, integration and development at NREL, where she has spent nearly 33 years. As technology evolves, new thoughts and skillsets will become extremely important to solve future issues and challenges, Goodman said. And more women are needed to bring new and different perspectives. “Diversity makes us richer,” she said, and that “will lead us to a better and brighter future.”

FINALISTS FROM PAGE 1
In December, the Douglas County School Board contracted with an executive search firm to find candidates that met qualifications gathered from online surveys, community input meetings and board priorities, according to Ray’s email. The search firm received more than 1,100 inquiries from nearly every state. It reviewed about 55 applications and narrowed the list to 12 people, which the board picked from. “Of those that ultimately submitted applications, the search firm screened and narrowed the pool of candidates based on their match to the leadership profile,” Ray said. “From there, the Board of Education screened the candidates and selected the finalists.” The leadership profile was established in February by the school board and traits sought included strong communication skills, experience re-
interest in the permanent post in January, took over as interim at the beginning of the 2016-17 school year, after Elizabeth Fagen left the district for a position in the Humble Independent School District in Texas. In December, the school board hired a firm to conduct a national search for a permanent superin-
tendent. The firm received 1,100 inquiries from nearly every state. After narrowing the list to 12 people, the school board selected three finalists that fit a leadership profile established earlier this year with community involvement. SEE KANE, P27

what is best for kids and they have an outstanding track record of demonstrating that.” In January, Kane announced she would apply for the permanent superintendent position. She was hired in 2016 after Fagen resigned and took a position in the Humble Independent School District in Texas. Many teachers and parents blamed Fagen, who was hired in 2010 by a school board majority of reformminded members, for policies that led to an exodus of teachers and administrators over the past several years. During her tenure, the school board severed ties with the teachers’ union. In January 2016, the Douglas County School Board extended Kane’s contract through the 2017-18 school year. Hiring a permanent superintendent was a hot topic leading up to last year’s school board election, when voters elected four anti-reform candidates, Kevin Leung, Krista Holtzmann, Chris Schor and Anthony Graziano, who in their campaigns backed a nationwide superintendent search. They joined like-minded members Ray, Wendy Vogel and Anne-Marie Lemieux on the board. At 6 p.m. April 5, the board will hold a special meeting in the DCSD Board Room, 620 Wilcox St., Castle Rock to announce a sole finalist for the position. The meeting will be live streamed at https://livestream.com/ DCSDK12/events/8129771. On April 2, the three finalists met with focus groups comprising randomly selected staff, educators, parents, community members and students. The next day, a meet-the-finalists event was held with the general public. The board was excited to present the three finalists to the community, Ray said. “I am proud to be part of a Board of Education who values staff and community engagement and maintains a focus on what is best for our students,” Ray said in his email.
MEET THE FINALISTS The following information is from bios of the finalists posted on the Douglas County School District’s website, www.dcsdk12.org. Karen Brofft She is the superintendent of LewisPalmer School District, made up of five elementary schools, one middle school and two high schools, serving more than Brofft 5,800 students. In 2011, as assistant superintendent, Brofft helped create a communications plan to pass a $50 million bond initiative and a $1.5 million mill levy override in Englewood Schools. She was also instrumental in the success of an $8 million Colorado Department of Education BEST grant. At Lewis-Palmer School District, Brofft has supported two mental health programs for middle school students: “Path to Empathy” and “Sources of Strength.” Under her leadership, the school district implemented a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report process and a Student-Based Budgeting system, as well as expanded its Career Technical Education. Daniel Clemens He is the superintendent of North Kansas City Schools in Kansas City, MisClemens souri, made up of 22 elementary schools, two sixth-grade centers, four middle schools and four high schools, serving 19,717 students. During his first year as superintendent, Clemens collaborated with the board of education to ensure that 100 percent of the district’s graduates were accepted to a twoyear technical school, a four-year college/university or enlisted in military service. As a result, 97.4 percent of the district’s seniors graduated and 100 percent of them had post-high school plans. Clemens was the first superintendent in the state of Missouri to get a $100 million bond referendum passed in his first year in the position, his bio says. Voter approval rate was 82 percent. Thomas Tucker He is the superintendent of Princeton City Schools in CinTucker cinnati, Ohio, comprising eight elementary schools, one middle school and one high school, serving 5,633 students. In 2012, Tucker helped pass an incremental levy and no-new-taxes $40 million bond issue. He was the first superintendent in Ohio to attempt and pass an incremental levy and bond issue on a single ballot. Tucker was named National Superintendent of the Year by the American Association of School Administrators in 2016 and the National Alliance of Black School Educators in 2013.

SAFETY FROM PAGE 5
“This is related to five officers being shot,” Nicholson-Kluth said. The equipment would be paid for through the county’s general fund and the Law Enforcement Authority fund, which typically pays for patrol activities. The list includes a variety of safety gear. There are rifle plates in several sizes that can be inserted into officer’s bullet-resistant vests to “protect them against rifle rounds,” NicholsonKluth said. There are also stronger bullet-resistant vests that can stop most handgun and some rifle rounds. The sheriff ’s office confirmed Parrish’s vest did not stop the caliber of weapon used in the Dec. 31 attack, but declined to offer further detail while
an investigation into the incident continues. Among the weapons used by the shooter, Matthew Riehl, were a shotgun, an M4 rifle, an M16 rifle and a .45-caliber handgun. School resource officers in Douglas County will also receive shortbarreled rifles to carry at large-scale events, such as school assemblies or sporting events, in which many people are gathered and there could be greater casualites in the event of a shooting. The school resource officers are already armed with handguns while on duty. The short-barreled rifles are collapsible and would be stowed in a backpack if an officer chooses to carry them at an event, the undersheriff said, so people shouldn’t expect to see officers walking around with rifles at the next sporting event at their school. The mornings of March 27 and 28, the three county commissioners met
with a roomful of deputies at the sheriff ’s office headquarters in Castle Rock as many got off night shifts and others came on to day shifts. Commissioners seemed poised to approve the request and emphasized they designate public safety as one of their annual board priorities. They hope granting the budget request would ensure officers are never under-equipped to handle a situation. “Something like this is usually a year-end budget item,” Commissioner David Weaver, former sheriff of Douglas County, told the deputies. “You have no idea how much we think and pray for you.” “We want to take good care of you so you can go out and take good care of our citizens,” said Commissioner Lora Thomas, a former member of the Colorado State Patrol. Nicholson-Kluth said the agency held two days of meetings with special teams and the officers involved
in the Dec. 31 shooting as part of a report examining how incidents like the shooting that killed Parrish could have been handled better. One result of those meetings was this budget request, she said. “This is only the equipment side of that,” Nicholson-Kluth said. “We also looked at policy, tactics, mental health, legislation and trauma issues.” From those meetings, the agency will publish an official officer action report on their findings from the Dec. 31 shooting, she said, although a date was not available. For now, she’s glad commissioners are working to get them more safety gear, she said. “I think it’s huge for the officers and the command shift to know that we have the ability to protect our officers as best we can,” Nicholson-Kluth said, “and ultimately they protect the citizens.”

Colorado House sends $29 billion budget bill to Senate Transportation needs are expected to be a priority BY JAMES ANDERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
Colorado’s Democrat-led House passed a $28.9 billion budget bill March 29 and sent it to the Republican-led Senate, where the focus will be on how much transportation — long an underfunded priority — should receive. A strong economy propelled by record oil production, rising wages and the new federal tax law is giving legislators a cushion to make catch-up investments in roads, schools, school safety and state pensions in the fiscal year that starts July 1. The House passed the budget bill 42-22 after hours of debate, defeat-
ing Republican amendments to add millions of dollars more to fix aging roads and bridges. The Senate now takes up the bill, and a separate bill that would issue bonds to generate $3.5 billion for roads will influence the debate. That legislation unanimously passed the Senate and is before the House, whose leaders, citing the prospect of an eventual recession, are hesitant to commit $250 million a year for 20 years to back the bonds — a sum that would siphon funding from K-12 education and other funding should Colorado’s economy falter. The bond issue depends on the bill passing this session and voters approving it in November 2019. Democrats argue asking Coloradans for a tax increase is a better option. “The dollars we are investing in transportation may not be available
to us in future years,’’ said House Speaker Crisanta Duran, D-Denver. “I’m open to a responsible amount of bonding, but we cannot simply mortgage away our future.’’ A companion budget bill passed last week commits $455 million to transportation regardless of whether the bonding bill succeeds. Republicans objected to a provision that allocates about $68 million of that amount to so-called “multimodal’’ needs that could include sidewalks and other safety improvements, public transit or other infrastructure. They argued for straightforward roads funding. “I recognize that we have finally made transportation a priority in this building,’’ said Rep. Polly Lawrence, R-Roxborough Park. “But we also need to recognize the fact that these local communities know what they
need better than we do.’’ “This encourages (rural communities) to think about everybody in the district, and not just about cars,’’ said Democratic Rep. Barbara McLachlan, whose district includes several rural southwestern counties. Republicans, citing Colorado’s history with school shootings and the February massacre at a Parkland, Florida, high school, added $35 million to the budget for school safety projects and training. That boosts total K-12 funding to more than $600 million. Tuition at most public colleges and universities will be capped at no more than 3 percent next year, and $225 million would go to the troubled state public employee pension plan. Another bill is designed to rescue the plan, whose unfunded liabilities are between $32 billion and $50 billion.
Governor candidates address mental health at forum STAFF REPORT
Some of the candidates for governor addressed mental health policy issues March 23 at Mental Health Colorado’s gubernatorial forum. About 400 people heard the candidates answer questions on topics including school mental health services, taxes for mental health and substance use programs, and extreme risk protection orders. Nine candidates attended — Republicans Stephen Barlock, Cynthia Coffman, Lew Gaiter, Greg Lopez, Vic Mitchell and Doug Robinson, and Democrats Mike Johnston, Donna Lynne and Erik Underwood. Former State Treasurer Cary Kennedy, a Democrat, was slated to attend but was sick, and Democratic U.S. Congressman Jared Polis was in Washington, D.C., after voting late the night before on a budget bill. Both sent policy staffers to give brief statements on their support of mental health programs and services for Coloradans. Republican State Treasurer Walker
Stapleton declined to participate. All nine candidates agreed that Colorado should have an extreme risk protection order law that would allow authorities to temporarily take guns away from people who are a danger to themselves or others. Mental Health Colorado is proposing this to state lawmakers this session. Another question asked at the forum had mixed responses. When asked if they would support state or local tax measures dedicated to mental health care, Gaiter, Johnston, Lynne, and Underwood said yes. Lopez said yes, if the citizens voted. Barlock, Coffman, Mitchell, and Robinson said no. “Put nine candidates on a stage together, and you might not expect them to agree at all. But when it comes to improving mental health care, we found at least two points of consensus: Colorado ought to make it harder for people who pose a danger to themselves or others to get guns — and easier for them to get treatment,” said Andrew Romanoff, president and CEO of Mental Health Colorado.

Fake tale of kidnappers frustrates police Social media helped spread false human trafficking rumor, detective warns
that human trafficking, kidnapping and related crimes are big problem in the area right now. But it didn’t happen, according to Westminster Police Investigator Cheri Spottke. “By the time we’d found out about the post, it had been shared more than 4,700 times to Facebook and it kind of started to create some chaos,” Spottke said. “People were upset, concerned, calling for safety meetings. And it just kept kind of growing legs.” Spottke said it’s a prime example of social media blowing a rumor completely out of proportion to reality. “It was interesting to watch but it was frightening,” Spottke said. “We just could not track it down fast enough.” She urges people to take what they read on social media with a grain of salt, double-checking a tale before they forward it along.
BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
It was a scary story, to be sure. It just wasn’t true. Readers were told that a young girl, leaving work from Westminster’s Orchard Town Center, was followed home by a mysterious car. According to the tale, she called police, who stopped the car and found two men carrying items of “ill intent” in their back seat. The story was posted to social media by the girl’s mother, who wanted to convey to others in Westminster and surrounding communities her belief
“Don’t just automatically share things,” she said. “Call us if you have a question: We are an open book, and we might not be able to give you details, but we can confirm or deny something. And then, you can go ahead and share it or not. But if you do post, share what you know. Don’t post assumptions and hearsay.” Investigating a rumor The story first appeared on the Nextdoor social media app for several Westminster neighborhoods about March 18. From there, a screen capture of the original story was posted to Facebook and shared even more. Spottke said her department learned of the post on March 20 and she began investigating. “We had limited information off of the first post, so we checked all of our calls for service going back a week
and then asked Broomfield, Thornton and other agencies,” Spottke said. “In that area, those boundaries are all very close, so we checked with all of them. But nobody had any record of the call and we began to think it was completely made up.” She posted to the Westminster Nextdoor page asking to be put in touch with the original poster. “We eventually got in touch and found out what jurisdiction the call was placed from and some other information,” Spottke said. Spottke said she eventually talked to the police officers who talked with the daughter. Spottke declined to identify what city they were from, but said their story differed widely from the social media tale.

If you’re not watching for dog food falling from the sky, you should be QUIET DESPERATION
Craig Marshall Smith
H
eads-up. Your dog food might be on its way down. Amazon (our new neighbors?) just received a patent for packages with inflatable air bags. Amazon wants to make deliveries by drone from as high as 25 feet. Why not have the drones come in for a landing? It uses too much of the drone’s power. I have always wondered how Amazon (and others) make home deliveries to remote areas, up
mountain roads, in the sticks, to off-the-map places. It can’t be costeffective. Drones might be the answer. I thrive on unintended consequences to fuel these articles, and it would seem that aerial drone drop deliveries would be full of them. All it would take is the wrong house number, and Buzz up the street gets clunked with your case of Gaines-burgers. Or what if the incoming dog food encounters a flock of
seagulls in midair? Or your delivery is scheduled for 2 p.m., but the drone is early while you’re out back drinking 40s. The bag doesn’t inflate and you are felled by dog food. How does that look in your obituary? I benefit from new technologies, certainly, but maybe we have enough of them. Maybe I have enough of them. Thoreau would be throwing up. “Simplify, simplify,” he said. “Complicate, complicate,” is what we’re doing.
In Tempe, Arizona, a fully autonomous car killed a 49-year-old woman as she walked her bicycle across a street. CNN reported the investigation does not show the vehicle slowing before the crash. A 44-year-old Uber test driver was behind the wheel. There was a driver, but the car was on self-drive. Did anyone else foresee this, or just Old Craig? SEE SMITH, P16

W LETTER TO THE EDITOR Now, parking is a concern? It amazes many of us that some in the Castle Rock Town Council are now concerned about parking in downtown. Wait! Councilmembers such as Green, Valentine and Ford approved these developers. Developments are approved utilizing data from developers, and individuals from the Castle Rock EDC, but the planning commission and councilmembers are the checks and balances. It is stunning that these developments will not have adequate parking when complete, and in fact will add to an already bad situation. Why do members of the town council, and the county commission, approve all development, without consideration

of the traffic on I-25, and the congestion within the Douglas County cities? Finally, did certain members of the Castle Rock Town Council put developer’s interest over the Castle Rock quality of life? I have no misconceptions that people should be able to move where they want, and that property owners should be able to develop their land. However, it is imperative that development include proper infrastructure. Think about it! Where can citizens park for the star lighting, the Oktoberfest, the county fair parade or any of the other community functions that make Castle Rock a great place to raise a family?

e have all had this conversation, haven’t we? You know the one I am talking about, when we run into someone we haven’t seen in a while, it sounds something like this, “Hey, how’s it going, how you been, what’s new?” and the other person re- WINNING sponds politely WORDS and says, “Great to see you too, everything is pretty much the same, what’s new with you?” The question, “What’s new with you?” has been around forever. Michael Norton And most times the responses are exactly like the scenario above, “Not much, same-old-same-old going on around here.” I think that sometimes we reply in this way because we feel like we don’t want to share what is new in our lives. And I think that other times, we really don’t think about all the new things happening or we do not have a full appreciation for them. And maybe, the new things going on in our life are new, but
maybe they aren’t necessarily good things that are going on and we would rather not share that part of what’s new with others just yet. So new doesn’t always connect with being good, but most times it does. A new car, a new dress, a new suit, a new restaurant, a new friend, a new or renewed love, a new attitude built on the pure, the clean, the powerful, and the positive. The new way we look at each other, the new way we see the world and all the beauty that comes with it. You see, the marketing slogan “New and Improved” isn’t just for businesses, “New and Improved” should be and can be about us too. Now for most people there seems to be two times a year when they think of things being new and maybe put a little more effort and emphasis on the newness of life. New Year’s Eve is one as we set goals and talk about resolutions, dropping bad habits and picking up new and healthier habits. And the other time of the year is right around now, springtime and Easter.

OBITUARIES MAUL
Paul Wayne Maul 7/19/1928 - 2/19/2018
Paul Wayne Maul passed away peacefully on February 19, 2018 surrounded by his loving family. He was a kind, gentle and humble man who deeply loved his country, his family and his God. Many friends, family members and colleagues say that Paul was the best man they have ever known. Paul was born July 19, 1928, in Anderson, Indiana of parents Paul T. Maul and Paulene (Wiley) Maul. Paul grew up in Anderson and graduated from high school in 1946. He attended college at Indiana University where he lettered in Cross country and earned a BA in Journalism and English in 1950. While in school, he married his high school sweetheart, Oleda Mills. His later education included an MS in International Affairs in 1968 from George Washington University and an MBA from the University of Nebraska in 1983. He was a prolific student of American history his entire life as witnessed by his large library of writings from Thomas Paine to Ron Chernow. Paul received his commission into the Air Force in 1950 whereupon he began a 30-year career
which took him to 16 bases throughout the world for permanent assignment. Paul completed pilot training in the B-29 in 1952 where shortly thereafter he flew combat missions in the Korean War in the KB-29. Once the war ended, he flew the B-47 and served on alert at Homestead Florida during the Cuban Missile crisis, followed by 3000 hours flying the B-52 and finally, the EB-66 with which he flew 102 combat missions out of Takhli AB, Thailand in 1968-69 during the Vietnam conflict. He served as the Wing Commander with the 99th Bombardment Wing at Westover AFB, Mass in 1973 and the 509th Bomb Wing at Pease AFB, New Hampshire. He ended his military career serving as the Deputy Director, Command and Control Head Quarters Strategic Air Command, Offutt AFB, Nebraska in 1977 where he retired as a full Colonel with over 6000 pilot hours. Paul loved his time in the service and kept in contact with scores of his old buddies throughout the rest of his life. One of
ILGEN
them from his EB-66 days who is now a renowned author of Air Force history in this country recently wrote, “He was one of the best pilots I ever knew”. Paul was a command pilot who earned military awards and decorations including the Legion of Merit with oak leaf cluster, The Distinguished Flying Cross awarded during combat in 1969, the Air Medal with three oak leaf clusters, the Bronze Star and the Meritorious Service Medal. After leaving active duty, Paul served as a Corporate Manager with General Dynamics Corporation before his “final” retirement in 1993. During that time, he worked in both Omaha and Alexandria, Virginia on the first generation of cruise and Tomahawk missiles. Paul married Ruth Anne Holmes in 1988 and settled in Castle Rock, Colorado in 1998 where he spent much time volunteering in various capacities and serving as treasurer and head of the Finance Committee of First United Methodist Church in Castle Rock, Colorado. He and Anne WESSEL

Meet Ryan the Robot at event in Castle Rock
A
team of engineers at the University of Denver led by professor Mohammad Mahoor is developing a socially assistive robot called Ryan that provides companionship to seniors with dementia and/or depression. There is emerging LIVING & research in the field of robotics that aims AGING WELL to use social robots to engage effectively in social and conversational interaction with seniors with dementia to improve their socio-emotional behaviors, cognitive functions, and wellbeing. Mohammad H. Dementia is an Mahoor overall term for diseases that deteriorate individuals’ memory and other mental skills. Dementia can significantly reduce elderly individuals’ ability to live independently and safely in their homes. Associated with the decline in cognitive abilities, depression is often one of the symptoms of dementia. Due
to dementia and the rapid aging of the population, nursing homes have been facing a challenge to provide care. The University of Denver partnered with DreamFace Technologies to develop a social robot, called Ryan, for this purpose. Ryan is a lifelike social robot with the capability of showing facial expressions, visual speech, emotion recognition, subject movement tracking and eye gaze. She can maintain a spoken dialogue and is designed for face-to-face communication with individuals in different social and therapeutic contexts. One of the key features of the robot is its animated face. The face uses a patented rear-projection system that allows her to change her appearance to appeal to the users and be more expressive. Also, the animated face helps easily sync her “lips” to her voice, which is important for understanding her. Another interesting feature of Ryan is her ability to recognize a user’s emotions through artificial intelligence. This ability allows her to understand the user’s mood and react appropriately. Combining this ability with her expressive face gives her a sense of
empathy and helps create a stronger bond with the user. Ryan is not just a pretty face, though. Users can have meaningful conversations with her too. Unlike Amazon Alexa or Google Home, she is not an assistant, but a companion. Ryan is proactive, she does not only answer your questions, she can start a conversation about anything and keep the user engaged. The robot is also equipped with a screen on its torso with features such as cognitive games, a music player, narrated photo albums and a video player. It even reminds the users to take their medicine on time and stay on schedule. A pilot study has been conducted with 12 seniors to demonstrate the feasibility of using Ryan to improve their quality of life with moderate dementia and/or depression over a four-week period. Overall, the seniors felt the robot helped them maintain their schedule, improved their mood, and stimulated them mentally. The common sentiment among users after the pilot study was best described by one user’s comment, “She (Ryan) was just enjoyable. We were sad to see her go.” Looking
toward the future, the second version of Ryan is already being developed with new features to further improve seniors’ quality of life. This column is hosted by the Seniors’ Council of Douglas County. Please join us May 2 at the Douglas County Event Center in Castle Rock for our day-long educational event, Vintage & Vibrant: Exploring the Latest Trends in Living and Aging Well. This exciting event includes three keynote speakers, numerous interactive breakout sessions, morning and afternoon refreshments, as well as lunch and door prizes. A $5 registration fee covers it all. Attendees will also have an opportunity to meet Ryan and Dr. Mohammad H. Mahoor. For more information and to register, visit: www.douglas.co.us/community/ senior-adult-services/seniors-council-2/ vintage-vibrant. Dr. Mohammad H. Mahoor is an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Denver. He received his Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Miami.

because of the forensics involved in determining why an airplane crashed. Frequently there is something wrong in the design. It might even be a bolt. One plane lost all of its hydraulics. “One in a billion,” a pilot said. The fault was in the design, and the
design was corrected. Maybe there will never, ever be another death caused by an autonomously driven automobile. “The self-driving industry,” CNN said, “has found quicker-success with highway driving” than dealing with pedestrians and bicyclists. I used to think that my father’s car’s cruise control feature was both unnecessary and kind of decadent. Until later in life when I drove through Nebraska. Even so, whenever I have used cruise control, I’ve felt some guilt. It is not what Henry Ford intended. The true automobile experience is betrayed. The same goes for the films I watch on television. Films were meant to be watched on a big screen with big sound in a big theater.
And they weren’t meant to be watched in intervals, or interrupted with trips to the kitchen, or to let the dog out They were meant to enrobe you from start to finish, completely, and without qualification. I apologize to Auguste and Louis Lumiere, French pioneers in filmmaking, every time I watch a film on my little flat screen, and go back and forth to my office or to my studio. We seek convenience at every turn, and I am no exception. But I can tell you right now what would to happen to my Gaines-burgers. They would land on my roof.

The “What’s new with you?” question can also be a newfound appreciation and sense of gratitude. Maybe it’s this year, this spring, right now that we can recognize just how grateful we are and how we fully and deeply appreciate all the people, sights and sounds, and things that we have been blessed with in our lives. If this is a new concept for you, give it a shot as gratitude and appreciation are two of the healthiest of all our emotions. What’s new with you? I really would love to hear what’s new with you and your “new” story at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can identify and appreciate the feeling of something new, it really will be a better than good week.

With springtime come the flowers, the budding of the leaves on the trees, extra daylight, warmer weather, a little more spring in our step and bounce in our ounce, and maybe even a new and positive attitude. And at Easter we know that all things are made new as we celebrate the newness that the meaning of Easter brings. Are you prepared for the question, “So what’s new with you?” I’ll bet if you really think about it, the response will not be, “Not much, just the same-old-same-old around here.” I’ll bet you can think of something that is new, something you are doing in your life, whether it is at home or at work, that has you energized and hopeful. Something that is putting a little extra spring in your step and bounce in your ounce.

Democrats underscore differences at forum Kennedy, Polis, Lynne, Johnston discuss energy, transportation, health care
REPUBLICANS APPEARED IN FEBRUARY
The Denver Business Journal and the Colorado Business Roundtable hosted a candidates’ forum for the Republican gubernatorial candidates Feb. 21 at the History Colorado Center, 1200 N. Broadway, Denver. See our coverage here: bit.ly/2uwavnf
BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A crowded governor’s race that has seen more than three dozen declared candidates has pared down to a handful of top contenders, and those on the Democratic side carved out different niches for themselves just weeks away from the state assembly. “I’m applying for a very small promotion,” said Lt. Gov. Donna Lynne, to laughs from the audience at the Democratic Governor Candidate Forum in Denver. The event at the History Colorado Center on March 29 saw Lynne playing up her experience in her secondto-the-governor role, as U.S. Rep. Jared Polis of Boulder cast himself as keeping businesses on his mind and former state Sen. Mike Johnston, D-Denver, took the audience into the details on policy. Former state treasurer Cary Kennedy — who is giving Polis a run for his money in polling and grassroots support — made the most plays for relatability in the forum, which was hosted by the Denver Business Journal and the Colorado Business Roundtable, an organization that advocates for business interests in legislation. It’s possible several candidates may get onto the ballot for the June 26 primary election. In a race that may come down to the wire, here’s what gubernatorial candidates had to say on some of 2018’s most prominent issues.
Kaiser Permanente executive, favors opening the state-employee plan to small businesses, areas with high costs that lack coverage choices and local-government entities. “Twenty-six states already do this,” Lynne said, “opening it up to local communities, counties, towns, school districts.” Johnston said those who would pay more than a certain percentage of their income — his website says roughly 10 percent — on premiums should be able to buy into Medicaid. He’s also for tax incentives to bring health providers to rural communities.
Health-care expansion The Bernie Sanders-esque call for “Medicare for all” is alive and kicking in Polis’ and Kennedy’s platforms, while Johnston and especially Lynne are more conservative in their ideas. “Particularly on the Western Slope, I hear from families spending $2,000 a month, $3,000 a month,” Kennedy said. Some Colorado counties have among the highest costs in the nation, she added, referring to premiums in mountain and western counties. Kennedy wants to open up Medicaid for anyone and also make available the plans currently available to state employees. She said the Medicaid initiative wouldn’t cost taxpayers anything — analyses of similar proposals say government spending would need to increase, although health care costs overall could drop due to eliminated need for advertising and administrative spending in the private sector. How the trade-off would turn out is hotly debated. Kennedy also said the state would have leverage to negotiate lower costs with health-care providers. Polis also supports a single-payer option, which he said could take burden off of businesses. He also pointed to the issue of people going to emergency rooms and shifting costs onto others. On the other hand, Lynne, a former
Modes of transportation All candidates acknowledged the importance of multimodal transportation — which generally means including mass transit like light rail — in bolstering Colorado’s infrastructure. Polis supports efforts toward a rail line that serves the Front Range, potentially connecting places between Fort Collins and Pueblo. Johnston brought up the “last-mile” issue, commuters needing a solution to connect to their destination after using certain transit. Kennedy talked up more funding for transportation projects, lamenting the reliance on private fees to use roadways in lieu of tax increases, which must be approved by voters in Colorado. “It can’t just all be private pay or user pay,” Kennedy said. “We have to make the investment in rural roads (and) highways.” Lynne echoed that — saying that the state needs to pass a tax to prevent revenue problems that could arise when, inevitably, the next recession comes — and also said transportation needs may change. “If we finance something with a 20-year view, which I’m not opposed to, we need to take technology into account,” said Lynne, adding that advancements like self-driving cars could be factors.
Candidates featured included Walker Stapleton, state treasurer; Victor Mitchell, former state representative of Castle Rock; Doug Robinson, former investment banker; and Cynthia Coffman, state attorney general.

The other candidates at the forum were, from left, U.S. Rep. Jared Polis of Boulder, Lt. Gov. Donna Lynne and former state Treasurer Cary Kennedy. ELLIS ARNOLD Move to renewables Polis and Johnston support moving Colorado to 100 percent renewable energy by 2040, while Kennedy and Lynne don’t go so far. “It reduces long-term rates,” Johnston said, adding that drilling shouldn’t take place in “environmentally sensitive” places. The move would bring green jobs
that can’t be outsourced, Polis said. “There are tremendous opportunities for job growth and savings for consumers,” Polis said of the plan that’s become the hallmark of his campaign, to much criticism from conservatives. Colorado would be irresponsible to talk too far into the future, said Lynne, who has in the past highlighted efforts by Gov. John Hickenlooper’s administration to support renewable energy and reduce carbon emissions. But, Lynne said, “We have to be realistic.” Similarly, Kennedy said Colorado “is and should continue to be” transitioning to renewable energy sources. “That doesn’t mean the oil and gas industry aren’t important. We are one of the biggest producers in the country,” Kennedy said, adding, “I am not one of the folks you’d see wanting to do harm.”

At just a cursory glance, one could almost be forgiven for being unimpressed by the Dead Sea Scrolls. After all, they appear as indecipherable writing — unless one speaks Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek — on scraps of paper to the untrained eye. But when one considers these papers survived for more than 2,000 years and contain excerpts from some of history’s most important documents, they start to look a lot more impressive. For the first time, Denver residents have the opportunity to not only examine some of the scrolls up close, but also hundreds of other artifacts from the same era in Israel at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. “People say the discovery of the scrolls was one of the great archaeological discoveries of the 20th century,” said the museum’s archaeol-

ogy curator, Dr. Steve Nash. “You can take away 20th century and replace it with all time.” The scrolls can be seen at the museum, 2001 Colorado Blvd. in Denver, through Sept. 3. This is the first time these documents have stopped in the Mile High City — the closest they’ve come before was Salt Lake City in Utah. The exhibition is organized by the Israeli Antiquities Authority. These oldest-known biblical documents were
discovered in 1947 by young Bedouin goatherders, who wandered into a cave along the shore of the Dead Sea, near the site of the ancient settlement of Qumran. They found an assortment of clay jars, inside of which were scrolls wrapped in linen. Over the next nine years, archaeologists and Bedouins searched the surrounding caves. After extensive excavation, more than 900 remarkably preserved scrolls were recovered. Before the discoveries of the scrolls, Nash said, the oldest biblical texts were from about 900 in the Middle Ages. For the exhibit, the scrolls are presented within a massive exhibit case featuring carefully regulated individual chambers, along with the full English translation. SEE SCROLLS, P26

t. Patrick’s Day weekend was a busy one for Adam Goldstein, CL Morden and Kenny Martinez. But that’s not much of a surprise when you’re in an Irish band. Which makes the trio — better known as Avourneen — even more excited about its upcoming performance at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, April COMING at Swallow Hill’s ATTRACTIONS 5, Quinlan Café, 71 E. Yale Ave. in Denver. “We were playing pubs, and when that’s the case, you’re working extra hard to be heard and get people dancing,” Goldstein said with a laugh. “But at a place like Clarke Reader this, which has been so significant to artists in the community, it gives us a chance to play some of the calmer, slower stuff.” Avourneen started in 2014, when guitarist and vocalist Goldstein and violinist and pianist Morden met as part of another Irish band. They loved the music of the Emerald Isle, but came at it from different angles — that’s how Avourneen came to life. “We wanted to blend trad (traditional), energetic music with some of the more ballady stuff and inject some pop into it,” Goldstein said. “When I fell in love with Irish music, it was that blend of musical chops and sentiments. You can have all this energy and then the most heartrending content.” Goldstein and Morden were recently joined by Martinez on stand-up bass and vocals, which has given the group new creative avenues to explore. They’re looking at new ways to explore the Irish music that audiences might be familiar with — songs like “Sparrow,” “Banks of the Liffey,” “Whiskey in the Jar,” “Come Out Ye Black and Tans” and “Drowsy Maggie.” The band has discovered a passionate fanbase for this kind of music all over Colorado and have some exciting concerts this spring and summer, not SEE READER, P26

‘Divergent Divas’ features works by three artists IF YOU GO
BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Co-curators Moira Casey and Karina Elrod have organized a spring exhibit, “Divergent Divas,” to relate to the wellknown musical, “Sisters of Swing,” a story of the Andrews Sisters, which plays April 6 through May 6 at Town Hall Arts Center in Littleton. “Divergent Divas” features works in varied subject matter, styles and mediums that make visual harmony together, just as Laverne, Patty and Maxine did with their voices in the 1940s. Think “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” or the sentimental “Apple Blossom Time.” Artists Teri McCans, Wendy Seebohar and Jennifer M. Collins bring varied backgrounds and a love for artistic storytelling to their exhibit, which hangs through May 11 in the Stanton Gallery at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center. They will host an artists’ reception to meet the public prior to the April 13 performance (5:30 to 7:30 p.m.). The gallery is open weekdays and during performances. • Wendy Seebohar grew up in Littleton and currently lives with her husband and three children in Roxborough, where she is inspired by the foothills and mountain landscape. She writes that she began her career in arts as a jewelry designer and metalsmith and started painting to satisfy a need to work at a larger scale. She painted for family and friends for a few years and made a career change as a self-taught artist who works with gouache, acrylic, pastel and pencil, “creating layers of color, form, texture and markings …” With a B.S. degree from Colorado State University, she is represented by the Rox Gallery and, until its recent

She also has exhibited at local art walks in Colorado. wendyseebohar.com. • Teri McCans’ visual language reflects a complex world she inhabits and witnesses. She grew up in rural New Jersey, surrounded by beauty, quiet and family support to develop her skills. Her dedication to and study of art began early and was interrupted when, after the 9/11 tragedy, she felt a desire to contribute to her country’s security and safety and joined the military. She had multiple deployments to Iraq and kept up with creative work and college study when possible, earning a BFA from the College of New Jersey. She studies stability vs. fragility, strength vs. weakness, male vs. female, working in strong black and white and color. In 2014 she moved west to Colorado, where she works in law enforcement and continues to explore her world in art. She belongs to the

With mixed media, she interprets contemporary themes of “shelter and ravens, layers of collected collage, intricate patterns, transparent colors and thick impasto …”; elements of watercolor, acrylic paint, graphite and found object become “part of every painting and every figure. My work is expressive of journeys and guidance, shelter and pathways. Colors harmonize and patterns move to lure you.” Collins works full-time at a graphic design agency and paints part-time in her studio, surrounded by “old maps, buttons, sticks+stones, love letters and wonderful colors that all join to create the artistic expression.” Her works are shown in galleries and in corporate collections.

Englewood artist exhibits in Smoky Hill Library BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Marlea Taylor said, “For 31 years, my world was a classroom. Now, my classroom is the world.” She was once a printmaker, as well as a teacher (including at All Souls School in Englewood) and now also works with the ancient art form of mosaic, which she said is “on the floor of Midas’ Palace and on the walls of St. Peter’s Basilica.” She creates new pieces in her light, color-filled home studio in Englewood. During the month of April, a special selection of her artwork, an exhibit called “Shadows,” will be displayed on the walls of the café at Smoky Hill Library, 5430 S. Biscay Circle, Centennial. Since her retirement, a focus on travel has carried Marlea and her husband, Bob, across many miles, in many directions, and the mosaics in “Shadows” reflect some favorite photos shot “in wonderful places” — each with the shadow made by the figures depicted. “My modern materials include tile, glass, metal and porcelain,” she says. And a look at her website brings up some really skillful applications of

(Just to see if she could?) She lectured at the PACE Center in Parker in 2015 about “Modern Mosaics,” related to an “Assemblage” exhibit, and participated in constructing a beautiful panel that hangs at Children’s Hospital Colorado, a Colorado Mosaic Artists group project. The exhibited artworks at the Smoky Hill Library are framed and hung on the café walls. They reflect visits to Beijing, Alexandria, New York, London, Venice, Copenhagen, York in England — on sunny days — hence the shadows. Each location is identified in this exhibit, Taylor said, adding that the wall at the library is “beautiful and well-lighted.” Other favorite locations include Aus-

The Taylors are happily planning the next excursion: a river trip in Russia that will include St. Petersburg and Moscow, as well as some less-traveled canals and waterways. It is a tour operated by a Russian company, with accommodations reminiscent of an old Pullman car, including a long corridor and bunks — NOT one of those huge cruising ships, the Taylors emphasized.

Anxiety began to consume Kendal. A pit of worry settled in her stomach. She didn’t want to name the girls: “I was scared to get attached.” Tyler, unsure the babies would survive, didn’t tell anyone, except for family and close friends, that Kendal was pregnant. “Every time we went, we worried,” Tyler said. “How are their bladders? Are there heartbeats? We were waiting for the bad, bad news.” Between 13 and 17 weeks, the ultrasounds showed some discrepancy in fluid between the babies, but it would self-correct, and the worry would ease. At 21 weeks, however, Kendal’s stomach became so swollen and taut she felt like a huge balloon. The ultrasound showed one baby floating in a pool of fluid. The other looked shrinkwrapped. Doctors said the condition had progressed so fast the only option was laser surgery to separate the blood vessels. The babies underwent a battery of tests to ensure their hearts and brains were healthy enough for the procedure. Behrendt and Dr. Henry Galan explained the condition, the plan, the risks, the options. “Knowledge is power,” Tyler said. “The more you know, the more you understand. We had so many questions.” A week later, a team of specialists including Behrendt and Galan performed a successful 2-minute, 34-second laser surgery that separated 11 blood vessels. They also drained 2 1/2 liters of fluid. But to separate those vessels, it was necessary to rupture the membrane that divided the babies’ amniotic sacs, which put the twins at high risk of entangling their umbilical cords. As a precaution, Kendal went on bedrest at home. At 26 weeks, she moved to the maternal fetal center at Children’s, where she continued on closely monitored bed rest. Ultrasounds three times a day checked the
Kenna, left, and Zoey Conley, born Jan. 4 — nine weeks premature after battling Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome — left Children’s Hospital Colorado on March 2, just four days before their original due date. “They’re little miracle babies,” their mother Kendal said.
Tyler and Kendal Conley spend time with their twin babies in the neonatal intensive care unit of the Colorado Fetal Care Center at Children’s Hospital Colorado.

babies’ heartbeats and made sure their cords remained untangled. And despite being afraid to get attached, Kendal and Tyler got to know their babies well: Baby A, as she was called, was a spitfire, a wiggle worm who kicked and hiccupped and rolled around all the time. Baby B was mellow. Quiet. Peaceful. ••••• On Christmas Eve, at about 30 weeks, Kendal’s water broke. But the goal was to reach 31 weeks — nine weeks before the original March 6 due date — to give the babies more time to grow and a better chance of surviving and developing without complications. On Jan. 2, fluid began to build up again, igniting concern that some vessels might still be attached. So two days later, on Jan. 4 at 11:25 a.m.,
WHAT IS TWIN-TWIN TRANSFUSION SYNDROME? Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome, or TTTS, is a rare and serious medical condition that occurs in about 15 percent of identical twin pregnancies in which the fetuses share a placenta and the blood supply becomes connected through shared blood vessels. One baby, called the recipient, receives too much blood supply and the other baby, called the donor, receives too little. “We watch these babies very closely, every two weeks at least, starting at 16 weeks to the end of pregnancy,” said Dr. Nicholas Behrendt, 37, a maternal fetal specialist and fetal surgeon at the Colorado Fetal Care Center at Children’s Hospital Colorado. “If the imbalance occurs, both babies can become very sick from the disease,” he said. “If the disease progresses, then severe complications such as heart failure or death can occur.” Left untreated, one or both babies die in 80 to 100 percent of pregnancies, statistics show. The number of deaths from TTTS exceeds those from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). But when treated, and without complicating factors, the center expects 96.5 percent for survival of one or
both fetuses and 83 percent for survival of both babies, according to a recent review of cases at Children’s. But 90 percent of TTTS cases have at least one or more complications that can reduce survival rates. Before ultrasounds, the condition was diagnosed only after the babies’ deaths, Behrendt said. The laser surgery to separate the blood vessels has been used since the 1980s. But he said survival rates have drastically improved over the past decade because doctors are better at the technically challenging procedure that requires a team of doctors and support staff to perform. “It’s a satisfying feeling . . . to be able to take care of these patients,” Behrendt said. The Colorado Fetal Care Center, which opened in 2010, performs between 100 and 130 TTTS laser procedures a year involving families from throughout the country. “I get a lot of satisfaction out of being able to educate the families about what is going on with their pregnancy,” Behrendt said. “At the end of the day, it’s great to feel that we give as many families a shot in a pretty dire situation.” — Ann Macari Healey
doctors performed a C-section and delivered two little girls. Kendal didn’t see the babies before they were whisked away — each with her own eight-member team of neonatologists, neonatal nurse practitioners, nurses, respiratory therapists and pharmacist — to the room next door. But when she heard them both cry, she cried, too. The babies were immediately put on ventilators to help them breathe — lungs don’t fully develop until 36 weeks — for the first 24 hours. Tyler drifted back and forth, between mom and babies, like a passenger following directions. He actually doesn’t remember much. When she finally met her babies, Kendal felt her anxiety ease. Baby A, the one receiving the extra blood flow, became Kenna. She weighed 4 pounds. Baby B — Zoey —
weighed 3 pounds, 10 ounces. On March 2, just four days before their original due date, Kenna and Zoey left their side-by-side cribs in the neonatal intensive care unit and went home. Kenna weighed 8 pounds, Zoey 7 pounds, 6 ounces. Their parents brought with them oxygen equipment to help them breathe, a stethoscope to monitor heartrates, the meds and supplements needed to add calories to breast milk. In the first 10 days home, the babies woke at night and slept during the day. Kendal and Tyler estimate their sleep totaled 15 to 20 hours during that same time. But the babies are growing and will soon not need the extra oxygen help. Life, Kendal said, “is beautifully chaotic.” ••••• When she and Tyler look back on the journey, they say they have witnessed two miracles. The first is the medicine — the doctors that educated and included them in the process and the procedures and care that gave their children life. “Seeing how these babies started and seeing how good they are — 20 years ago these babies wouldn’t have survived,” Tyler said. “What’s incredible is how medicine saved these girls.” The second is the girls themselves. “They’re little miracle babies,” Kendal said simply. “We are overjoyed.” Love. Faith. Family. A happy ending. Ann Macari Healey writes about people, places and issues of everyday life.

Dentist group makes push to limit opioid prescriptions ADA encourages using other types of painkillers BY LINDSAY TANNER ASSOCIATED PRESS
The American Dental Association wants dentists to drastically cut back on prescribing opioid painkillers. The association announced a new policy recently that “essentially says eliminate opioids from your arsenal if at all possible,’’ said Dr. Joseph Crowley, the group’s president. The Chicago-based group represents around 161,000 dentists. The group is also pushing for limiting opioid prescriptions to no more than a week and mandatory education for dentists that encourages using other painkillers. Dentists write fewer than 7 percent of U.S. opioid prescriptions, but new research shows that practice has increased in recent years, despite evidence that ibuprofen and acetaminophen work just as well for most dental pain and are less risky opioids, which can be addictive. In many dental cases involving opioids, dentists prescribe Vicodin or Percocet for short-term pain from procedures including removing wisdom teeth and other tooth extractions, root canal work, or

SCROLLS FROM PAGE 18
Ten scrolls will be displayed when the exhibition opens. Because of strict preservation requirements, 10 different scrolls will arrive halfway through the run to replace the 10 initial scrolls. Each rotation includes a scroll that has never before been on public display. For this first rotation, the neverbefore-seen scroll is Tohorot (Purities) A. This text focuses on ritual purity, a common topic of the Hebrew Bible. “If guests look only at the scrolls, they’re only getting one perspective on one religion at the time,” Nash said. “The goal is to give some context to what was happening at the time, to show how the writers of the scrolls were influenced, and the world they influenced.”
The Dead Sea Scrolls require all kinds of maintenance and protection to keep them safe. Due to strict preservation requirements, 10 different scrolls will arrive halfway through the run to replace the 10 initial scrolls.

He also serves as host and executive producer of various shows including NBC’s “The Wall” and the upcoming “The Awesome Show.” Previously, Hardwick served as host and executive producer of Comedy Central’s twotime Emmy Award-winning nightly comedy game show @midnight, which aired its 600th and final episode in August 2017.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week - Dan Auerbach at Paramount Theatre Most people are familiar with guitarist, singer and songwriter Dan Auerbach as half of the blues rock duo, The Black Keys. But Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney have been on hiatus for the past few years, taking time to do their own thing. For Auerbach, he’s had the chance to embrace the rock and country sounds of Nashville, where his Easy Eye Sound Studio is located. Last year, he released his second solo album, “Waiting on a Song,” and he’s stopping by the Paramount Theatre, 1621 Glenarm Place in Denver, at 8 p.m. on Thursday, April 5. Attendees will get more than a performance by Auerbach — the tour is named The Easy Eye Sound Revue and features Robert Finley, Shannon Shaw and Shannon and the Clams Date and Time, all who have played in the studio. Auerbach has been making music with sessions legends like drummer Gene Chrisman and keyboardist Bobby Wood, musicians who have played with titans like Elvis. He’s taken that passion for honest music and brought it on his tour. Finley, 64, worked as a carpenter in Louisiana until three years ago, when he started going blind. He was performing on the street when he was discovered by the Music Maker Relief Foundation, according to an article in “Rolling Stone.” For tickets, visit www.altitudetickets.com/events/detail/dan-auerbach. Colorado Book Award finalist reading Every year, the Colorado Humanities organization hosts the Colorado Book Awards to celebrate the accomplishments of Colorado’s outstanding authors, editors, illustrators and photographers. Awards are presented in at least 10 categories including anthology/collection, biography, children’s, creative
jewelry and a three-ton stone from the Western Wall in Jerusalem, believed to have fallen in 70 CE (Common Era). “Just like at the Western Wall in Jerusalem, guests are leaving notes and prayers in the cracks. When the exhibits is finished, they’ll be sent to Jerusalem, to the real wall,” Nash said. “There’s also a live feed where people can watch what’s going on at the Western Wall in Jerusalem while they see the stone here.” Unlike many exhibits that come through the museum, what each person takes away from seeing the scrolls depends on their own beliefs. But there’s no contesting the impact these documents have had on the world and its three enormous faiths of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. “This exhibit is really about the epic sweep of humanity,” Nash said. “History is always more complicated, messier and more interesting.”
nonfiction, fiction, history, nonfiction, pictorial, poetry and young adult. This year, the winners will be announced on June 2. Colorado Book Awards finalists in the Mystery, Science Fiction/ Fantasy and Thriller categories will participate in a reading at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 6, at BookBar, 4280 Tennyson St. in Denver. The emcee for the evening is two-time Colorado Book Award winner in the Thriller category, Carter Wilson. Some of the authors reading will be Barbara Nickless, who will read from her mystery novel “Dead Stop;” Charlotte Hinger, who will read from her mystery novel “Fractured Families;” and Michael F. Haspil, who will read from his science fiction/fantasy novel “Graveyard Shift.” To learn more, call 303-894-7951 or visit coloradohumanities.org. Join the Mile High Soul Club at the opera Soul and R&B music is one of the best and most overlooked genres in contemporary society. There was a time, in the ‘50s and ‘60s, when soul was the style of music for artists looking to explore the height of their creativity and simultaneously make music you could really dance to. The Mile High Soul Club is one of the best ways for Mile High residents to tap into that energy, with their monthly soul nights. DJs Tyler Jacobson, DogBoy, Steve Cervantes and Jason Heller play classic soul, R&B and funk vinyl 45s that are guaranteed to get you on the dance floor. This month’s Mile High Soul Club part is at 9 p.m. on Saturday, April 7 at the Syntax Physic Opera, 554 S. Broadway in Denver. For more information, visit www. milehighsoulclub.com.

Finalists were announced on March 29. Kane, who is being paid $240,000 per year as interim superintendent, declined to comment on the board’s decision. School board President David Ray said he could not comment on why Kane didn’t make the list of finalists because information on applicants who entered the search process is confidential. He can only comment on the three names that have been made public, he said. Kane helped found charter school American Academy, which has a location in Castle Pines and two in Parker.

Schools Coalition, an organization composed of parents, students, teachers and community members, with an interest in the school district, said she has faith the school board is making the right decision given the community input it has received. “I’d assume if Kane didn’t make the cut, she didn’t match up with what the community was asking for,” said Mutton, whose child went to Douglas County schools. In an evaluation released last fall, the seven school board members at the time — which included current board members Ray, Wendy Vogel and AnneMarie Lemieux, and four members no longer on the board — rated Kane based on four criteria: creating a work environment to increase employee satisfaction and reduce turnover, bringing stability to the district, performing budget analysis and communicating the need for a mill levy and bond tax measure.

LIBRARY FROM PAGE 4
In the Douglas County event, approximately 12 volunteers serving as books will be arranged in a room at the Castle Rock library. In 20-minute intervals, they will have conversations with people attending the events who can hear their stories and ask questions. Readers will be given a booklet with a synopsis of each book’s story and will be escorted by a volunteer to whichever book they want to check out. Curtin cautioned that anyone who wants to act as book in the event should be prepared to answer some difficult questions, although they will receive training for how to handle conversations and how to establish boundaries during them before the event takes place. The “readers,” or people attending the event to meet the books, will also be given guidelines for how to approach conversations and ask questions respectfully. For more information on applications, the interview process, training and the event, visit DCL. org/volunteer. “We’re really looking at people who have stories of resilience, of forgiveness and acceptance,” she said. “And just the desire to connect deeper with the community.”

Area teams use break to sharpen skills Baseball players get chance to shine in warm-weather locations BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
South metro-area baseball teams are anxious to open league play after tuning up with spring break trips to Arizona, California and Florida. Twelve teams from area schools compiled a 30-19 record in out-of-state games during spring break. Highlands Ranch went 4-1 in the Coach Bob National Invitational in Phoenix. “Our trip went well,” said Falcons coach Joe Gleason. “We feel like we saw competition that will prepare us for league play back here in Colorado.” In the Falcons’ final tournament game, senior Zac Dammel pitched 2.1 innings of scoreless relief to pick up the win in an 8-6, eight-inning win over Long Beach Poly. Sean Arnold
collected three hits in the victory. “It was nice to be able to play five days in a row without a worry of weather and on very nice fields,” Gleason said. “Playing five days in a row also gave us an opportunity to see all of our players in a competitive varsity setting. “As a team we were able to spend time together and have team events. We had a lot of fun together and grew as a group. Overall, it was a great experience for our kids and we grew as a program because of it.” Castle View, which plays Regis Jesuit in its Continental League opener on April 9, won three of four games in the Coach Bob tourney. “We played some good teams,” said Sabercats coach Jose Diaz. “The trip was helpful. We got to play, see new teams, the weather was good, our kids were exposed because there were scouts at the games and the competition was there. “We play the same teams over and over here, so we got to see other teams from out of state and
that keeps us sharp.” Arapahoe went 3-0 in Arizona and was scheduled to open Centennial League play April 3 against Mullen. In a 19-12 win over Thurston (Springfield, Oregon) on March 29, Spye Turnbeagh entered the game with the bases loaded and no outs but worked his way out of the inning without giving up a run. He pitched three inning to earn his first varsity victory. Heritage was 2-0 in a pair of games in Phoenix. Justin Perry pitched three innings of scoreless relief in a 7-4 win over Potomac (Dunfries, Virginia) on March 26 and the Eagles scored three runs in the bottom of the seventh in a 6-5 victory over Gresham (Oregon) on March 27. The Eagles open Continental League play April 9 against Highlands Ranch. Douglas County headed south early and went 3-1 in four games in the Coach Bob National Invitational. The Huskies will be idle for 22 days before facing Chaparral in its Continental League opener on April 13.
his is not breaking news because everybody knows by now that spring weather in Colorado can be unpredict-
able. A warm pleasant day with the temperature in the 70s is followed by heavy, wet snow OVERTIME and rain the next day. I once had an assignment to write a poem in elementary school and my rhyme went something like this: When it’s springtime in the Rockies and muddy on the Jim Benton streets, please help your mother and clean your feet. That was the case a couple days last week when snow storms moved across the Denver area on March 26 and March 28, which forced six of the seven spring sports to scramble to secure indoor practice space. Boys swimming is an indoor sport and is not affected by the weather. This involved mostly Douglas County schools last week since Cherry Creek, Littleton, Jeffco and Adams 12 schools were on spring break. “We ended up creating an indoor weather schedule so teams come in and use the gym or the commons,” said Legend athletic director Kevin Boley. “Girls golf will go upstairs to the wrestling room. They have something like a birdie ball that they can hit. Indoor type things. The tennis team was hitting balls into the curtain in the gym or off the wall to work on technique. Everybody can do conditioning in the hallway.” Baseball teams can sometimes rent a facility to take batting practice, and it isn’t unusual to see athletes running over hurdles in the hallways. Rock Canyon athletic director Tom Brieske was at Shea Stadium on March 28 watching as the turf got covered with snow during a girls soccer game and wound up postponing the ensuing boys soccer game against Colorado Academy. “It gets real hectic,” said Brieske. “There are a lot of moving parts. The safety of the kids is the prerequisite. You have to get creative. It’s a balancing act.” Rescheduling for three levels of each sport can be challenging for coaches and ADs.

For ex-major leaguers like Helton, retirement no easy transition Former Rockies star calls it ‘hardest thing’ he’s ever done BY JANIE MCCAULEY ASSOCIATED PRESS
Todd Helton now regularly drives his two daughters to school or other activities back home in Tennessee, a huge life change for Colorado’s former All-Star first baseman. He had no idea walking away from baseball would be such a daunting and overwhelming adjustment. The daily routine that had become part of his DNA — the bantering, the batting practice, the games — replaced by chauffeuring kids, helping around the house and some golf. “It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life,’’ Helton, 44, said. “I’ve been a baseball player since I could walk, always knew I was going to be a baseball player.’’ As baseball begins anew, many former players realize just how tough it is. No more opening days. No adrenaline rush from batting with the bases loaded and two outs in front of 40,000 fans going crazy. No clubhouse camaraderie, sharing a goal of reaching the World Series. The planes, the hotels, the autograph seekers and, sure, the money. But a structure totally built around being at the stadium, suddenly replaced by mundane tasks with nobody watching. “You step away and the game goes on without you, no matter how great you were,’’ former outfielder Randy Winn said. “And there are some really great players standing around here that aren’t playing anymore: world champions, All-Stars, Barry (Bonds) walks in and some of the greatest of all time. And the game goes on. There’s younger people that come in that get talked about. That’s maybe not the hardest
Todd Helton, who retired after the 2013 season, was one of the best first basemen of his era with the Colorado Rockies. “Stopping playing and taking your kids to and from school, that’s a big adjustment,” he said. “It was hard.’’ SHUTTERSTOCK IMAGE thing but it’s kind of the `What’s next for me?’ that is the hard part.’’ Injuries forced ex-San Francisco pitcher Noah Lowry to retire early , and he now owns an outdoors store in Northern California and joined the Chamber of Commerce. Like Helton, he also felt lost without his sport. “I felt dead inside,’’ Lowry said. One-time Giants teammate Jack Taschner became a police officer in Wisconsin. He blossomed into an internet sensation last fall when he showed up at a high school football game and fooled fans by leading a group cheer in the stands. Helton retired after the 2013 season following a 17-year career, all with the Rockies. He returned to Coors Field last Sept. 15 for a reunion of the 2007 NL champions who were swept by Boston in the World Series. While there, Helton visited a back room in the clubhouse and reminisced while looking at the bat
rack where his lumber once rested. It can be a difficult change even when you know your time’s up. Especially for those players who didn’t earn the kind of salaries to support them for decades to come. “If you’re lucky you’re in your mid-30s, right? Let’s say you make it to the big leagues when you’re 25 and if you’re lucky you play five years — you’re 30 years old,’’ said Winn, who retired in April 2011 after 13 major league seasons in the outfield with Tampa Bay, Seattle, San Francisco, the New York Yankees and St. Louis. “You have 50 years of being retired, so that’s daunting. Even if you do play 20 years you still have a lot of years on the other side to figure out kind of `What do I want to do?’ Fred McGriff told me when I first retired — that’s my guy, he took me under his wing when I was a rookie — he said, `Randy, there’s only so much golf you can play.’ ‘’ Retired reliever Scott Eyre, who
pitched 13 big league seasons with five teams, announced “I need a job!’’ in a g Facebook post on Aug. 31. t w A new role o Those still working in baseball w realize how fortunate they are to have t stayed part of the game they love. “I always planned to be involved in c the game. I never dreamed I would be t managing, that was new for me,’’ said t A.J. Hinch of the World Series cham- t pion Houston Astros. “But being able c to be in the game, it’s what we know, fi it’s what we love. We’re used to the s rigors and the routine of the season. e “It’s hard to be away. You spend so h much time on a baseball team or in a j baseball season, it’s impossible not to b miss it.’’ t Winn said the regimented baseball schedule always has players somewhere at a specific time — from buses to flights to stretching and batting practice. And that’s often all these men have known for years. “And even in the offseason, you don’t have somewhere to be but you have a goal,’’ said Winn, now a Giants special assistant and analyst. “You take however much time you take off then you have a goal — I want to be ready for spring, so that requires me being places: at the gym, cardio, throwing, hitting, kind of on a regimented schedule.’’ To be part of a team for so long, for most way back to their Little League days, and then no longer having that daily interaction and togetherness can take a toll. A 13-year big league catcher, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny had to walk away because of about 30 concussions from years of taking foul tips and hard collisions at the plate. “It happens to everybody in any walk of life, it just happens to our SEE RETIREMENT, P33

Registration now open for PGA Junior League Boys and girls of all backgrounds and skill levels are invited to register for the PGA Junior League. The program offers team golf experiences with expert coaching and instruction from PGA and LPGA professionals in the Denver area. The two-person scramble format encourages mentorship, builds confidence and promotes sportsmanship. The league is for ages 13 and younger, although some programs are for ages 16 and younger. The PGA Junior League reported record-setting numbers last year, with 42,000 boys and girls playing on 3,400 teams nationwide. Of those players, 80 percent were beginner or recreational golfers. Open registration means that families do not have to have an existing

guys a lot younger,’’ Matheny said. “I think some guys handle it extremely well. Most of them have a balance and once again they kind of do figure out what is going on in their life besides the game.’’ “There’s other guys that are very content with the fact of putting the title on themselves they’re going to be a lifer. They’re going to be in this game no matter what. ... It all comes down to most of the guys just finding peace with where it is they’re supposed to be,’’ he said. “It’s not easy. I’ve talked with some guys who have had unbelievable careers. They just can’t get their mind around not being part of something or part of a team.’’
relationship with the golf course for the kids to participate. Go to PGAJrLeague.com to search for a team by ZIP code or facility, and to register online. Participating golf courses in the area include: • Indian Tree Golf Club, Arvada • Riverdale Golf Club, Brighton • South Suburban Golf Course, Centennial (16U) • Broken Tee Englewood, Englewood • Fossil Trace Golf Club, Golden • The Links Golf Course, Highlands Ranch • Highlands Ranch Golf Club, Highlands Ranch (16U) • Raccoon Creek Golf Course, Littleton • Legacy Ridge Golf Course, Westminster • The Greg Mastriona Golf Courses at Hyland Hills, Westminster
Finding purpose Helton is accustomed to his new, fardifferent routine. He golfs, he goes fishing, he is director of player development for Tennessee’s baseball team. He works out most mornings, while acknowledging “it’s a lot harder to work out now when you don’t have anything to work out for.’’ “I thought I was totally prepared for it. I knew it was coming, so it’s not like it was any surprise. I was 40 years old and still playing,’’ he said. “Stopping playing and taking your kids to and from school, that’s a big adjustment. It was hard.’’ He came to the point he appreciates being there for all his girls’ after-school activities. Helton had to fight through being down the way he did a hitting slump. He had been No. 17 for so long. “Life’s good again. It took a couple years,’’ he said. “Every day’s a Sunday for me.’’

There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorated share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale. When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling 10% of the Secretary’s bid in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not be accompany each oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of 10% of the Secretary’s bid must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash.

At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them. The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extension will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit, or at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder. There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act.
