Blood donor hits 70-gallon mark Highlands Ranch man honored by Bonfils center By Taryn Walker
twalker@colorado communitymedia.com Larry Cloos, 52, is addicted to saving lives. On the morning of July 14, the Highlands Ranch resident lounged back as Bonfils Blood Center technicians checked his vitals, with his 6-year-old son, Roman, clinging to his leg. Cloos squeezed a mini football with his fist and stared at hot coffee and a cup of nuts on the table beside him. This wasn’t any ordinary donation. By the end of the three-hour session, he had reached a milestone on the platelets machine, becoming the youngest donor to give 70 gallons of blood. “For every pint I give, that’s three lives I helped save,” Cloos said. “Not one drop of
this blood goes to waste.” The 235-pound man has saved 5,040 lives with his donations and gives platelets up to 24 times a year, which is the maximum. With his A-positive blood type, he can match with up to 90 percent of the world’s population and, as a result, he’s donated blood to Bonfils in Highlands Ranch 560 times. Bonfils CEO Bryan Krueger honored Cloos with a pin and a short speech, highlighting different parts of Cloos’ career of saving lives, starting with some history. “Larry signed up for his first donation in 1981 when he was 18 and today he’s giving his 70th gallon,” Kreuger said. “You know how many gallons a fire truck holds? Seventy. He’s never missed a donation in his adult life.” Although it’s said one unit of blood can help as many as three patients, it’s not exact because every patient’s need is different, Donor continues on Page 6

Ice cream social benefits Crisis Center Highlands Ranch event gets big help from Safeway
Six students from STEM School and Academy in Highlands Ranch built a payload and flew it aboard a 25-foot rocket in Pueblo on July 18. The payload is a 2-meter, 2-pound Automatic Packet Reporting System beacon that transmits radio frequencies to determine GPS data, elevation, speed and altitude while in flight at 10,000 feet. Besides providing information, the payload will help students locate where it will land by giving the GPS longitude and latitude, said Bryon Paul Veal of APRL Rocky Mountain Division. On July 13, the STEM kids, who are interns with United Launch Alliance and Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., as well as other numerous interns from kindergarten Rocket continues on Page 6

The Highlands Ranch Metro District ice cream social on July 15 was more than just sundaes and sprinkles. For only $2 apiece, people ate ice cream and snow cones and helped raise $2,828 for The Crisis Center, whose goal is to end domestic violence through advocacy, education, and prevention. HRMD Community Relations Manager Sherry Eppers said this year’s event at Civic Green Park saw about 1,400 people. Safeway Inc. donated items including the ice cream, toppings, paper products, ice and other supplies, she said. The social began 18 years ago as a way to celebrate the opening of Littleton Fire Rescue Station 18, located at Lucent Boulevard and Timbervale Trail. This year, Littleton Fire Rescue put together a demonstration using a damaged car, hydraulic tool (the Jaws of Life) and lucky volunteer. Firemen cut glass from the windshield and took off a door to “save” the volunteer in a mock car accident scene. Ice cream continues on Page 6

Gardener, happily married after 31 years What makes me tick
My goal is just to be happy and enjoy life, and that’s spending every day with my husband (Don). I also garden and have been doing it for a while. I have onions, squash, cucumbers, raspberries, blackberries and strawberries. I also have a flower garden, but I can’t remember all of the flower names — that’s newer to me.
The past
I’ve lived in Highlands Ranch for 25 years and we both used to work with Lockheed Martin. I don’t work anymore. I was there for 14 years and he was there 33 years. I miss the people, but I don’t miss the stress. The friendships were special and we all still keep in contact.
Volunteers wanted for Metro District
Fun times
I used to be a bowler and I was not bad. Sometimes I go up the mountain (Blackhawk) to play poker and slots. I don’t intend to do well — I go for fun. I’ve learned, you don’t take any more than you can afford to lose.
All you need is love
We do everything together. See, we’re out at Wendy’s having lunch together. We’re kind of opposites, yet we have a lot in common. It’s important to trust in each other and be friends first before marriage. We dated for four years before we got married, I was 37 and he was 27. A lot of couples don’t spend 24-7 together, but we do, and it works. I don’t

Do you like to get involved in your local community, or need volunteer hours for school? The Highlands Ranch Metro District is looking for volunteers to help at the Household Chemical Roundup on Aug. 8. The annual event in Highlands Ranch is presented by Tri-County Health Department in partnership with the Metro District and Centennial Water and Sanitation District. The event provides an opportunity for Highlands Ranch residents to dispose of hazardous chemicals from their homes, sheds and garages in a safe, legal, and environmentally sound manner. The chemical roundup provides an outlet for wastes that might
otherwise end up in our creeks, stormwater systems and sanitary sewers, or be disposed of illegally on public or private property. Volunteers are needed to help with registration, unloading items from vehicles, traffic control, sorting and more. Help is needed from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and can be split into a first or second shift from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., or 11:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m., or the entire event. The minimum age to volunteer is 14 with a parent’s permission. For more information or to volunteer, contact Kari Larese at 720-2404909 or klarese@highlandsranch.org.
Task force gets renovation money The Douglas County commissioners approved $175,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds for the Douglas/Elbert Task Force for building renovations July 14.

A TASTE OF GERMANY
German Fest Denver carried on over three days at Civic Green Park in Highlands Ranch, July 17-19. The Chalet Dancers, numerous German bands and the Highlands Ranch Concert Band took to the Case Pavilion Stage to entertain those snacking on smoked salmon, schnitzel and strudel. According to organization president, Bernie Benthel Saturday saw the largest attendance and people were dancing – which was just what he wanted, he said. Food was catered by Styria Catering and whipped up by Austrian chef Walter Neuhold, who’s cooked food for several prestigious people. The beer garden located near the stage was popular as Hefeweizen was served on tap. Activities for children included bubble play, face painting and various crafts and games. Several made sure to take pictures behind cardboard cutouts dressed in traditional German attire.

Legend of Agriculture award goes to group
Organization disbanded, but scholarships continue By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com An organization that no longer exists will be honored for its contribution to the Douglas County community. The Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation has selected the Young Farmers and Homemakers Association of Douglas County as this year’s Legend of Agriculture Award recipient. The YF&H will be honored as part of CALF’s annual Legend of Agriculture Award Dinner on July 31 at the Douglas
County Events Center. The Douglas County YF&H chapter dissolved in 2013, but its scholarships continue through the Douglas County 4-H Council. “We felt like the Young Farmers and Homemakers were such an important part of Douglas County — from the fair to their work with 4-H and scholarships — they left a legacy for our community,” said CALF President Brooke Fox. This is the first time that a group rather than an individual will be honored with the award. The YF&H program reached out to veterans returning to rural America from World War II and thrived in the 1940s and 1950s. Thousands of dollars of scholarships were awarded.
YF&H may be best remembered throughout the last 50 years for the hot dogs and hamburgers the group sold at the Douglas County Fair & Rodeo. In all the years the group operated the concession stands, a cup of coffee was only 25 cents. “I remember them selling the hamburgers at the fair as a kid,” Fox said. “They were such a big part of our community for a long time. They really laid the foundation for agriculture in Douglas County. So many people learned and benefited from them over the years.” CALF presents the Legend of Agriculture Award annually to those who exemplify Colorado’s rural agricultural heritage. The award is presented at CALF’s Legend of Agriculture Award Dinner, held as a kickoff to the Douglas County Fair and Rodeo.

Mile-high meandering Family explores new home in Colorado By Taryn Walker
twalker@colorado communitymedia.com As six people piled out of a white Expedition with Arizona license plates, thunder clapped in the distance. A storm was forming on the Front Range, and Daniels Park was half sunshine, half darkness. Amanda Steirstorfer sat her dog Lily on the gravel terrain, and the big-eyed Pomeranian looked up at her and started panting. Shaking their heads, the family giggled. “She doesn’t want to walk, she’s a princess,” Amanda said to her mom, Michelle, who was standing
on a rock, soaking in the vista. The group had just returned from picnicking at Cherry Creek Reservoir and was adventuring. “Look at this place, you can see forever,” Michelle Stiersorfer said to her husband and two grown kids before taking a big breath of fresh air. After moving to Highlands Ranch from Arizona a couple of weeks ago, Michelle and her husband, Steve, were jumping up and down over the 81-degree weather on that Wednesday afternoon. No one likes 110 degrees, she said. “Zach (son) found this place last week,” Michelle said. “I saw a dirt road and kept driving,” he said. Their eyes were on the prize and that prize was open space. “That’s what we really enjoy about Colorado — look at all of this
land.” Their Yorkie, Zoe, was off sniffing away at the flora. As Amanda was heading down a trail from the mesa, she scooped up her ball of fluff and gave her a smooch. Her brother Zach, who was proudly wearing a Colorado flag Tshirt, took a break from snapping photos and rested on a bench for a moment to take it all in. “I was really hoping we’d see the bison today,” Michelle said to her daughter. The roaming bison weren’t roaming that day. Daniels Park’s hairiest residents include about 20 breeding cows that have a 1,000-acre ranch to mosey about on. Another excuse to visit has arisen. “Next time,” Amanda said.

through 12th grade, showed off their hard work at an open house in Centennial. The open house included presentations, rockets being signed and printed with paint by hand and foot and photo opportunities of the Future Heavy rocket, which is the largest sport rocket in the world — set to launch in 2016. Centennial-based ULA built the Future rocket the STEM kids flew their payload on. When asked who all worked on the payload, 13-yearold Ari Martinez of Golden stepped up to say, “I did!” Two others chimed in, including 14-year-old Gunnar Enserro of Lone Tree and 16-year-old Grayson Gerlich of Littleton. A handful of the students from STEM were present at the open house and were excited to explain their project. The group is made up of beginning and advanced payload teams, a STEM academy instructor and a retired ULA engineer, Jeff Dunker said. Some of the kids, like Gerlich, have flown a payload on a rocket four or five times, while others are still learning and getting experience, he said. According to Martinez, the teams have been working on payloads for years, ever since the academy began putting together teams that meet once a week. Gerlich said he’s been on a team for five years, and over the last two months the advanced group has put in a lot of hours on
the project. “This is an example of how our school’s AB0BX amateur radio student program is offering cross-curriculum opportunities with other established class programs at the school,” Veal said. Enserro said he was responsible for building the parachute attached to the payload. “It’s like fox hunting with radios. We find triangulations that are emitted by a frequency when it launches,” he said. All three students alluded to the impact the program has on their future. “Where else are you going to get this experience and get to work with rockets?” said Gerlich in regard to the STEM program. Three sport rockets built and refurbished by ULA were propelled at the launch, with four payloads used from the dozen K-12 payload teams.
“This year’s rocket team includes approximately 60 interns and more than 20 mentors from ULA as well as 30 interns and 25 mentors from Ball Aerospace,” according to a press release. ULA has teamed up with Ball Aerospace since 2009 to offer students real-world space industry experience through internships. Work with onboard instruments and experiments that deploy, such as payloads, was incorporated in 2012. Each team has an eight-week period to work on their own time with their peers, mentors and instructors to build and test the rocket payloads.

Bonfils spokeswoman Liz Lambert said. Giving platelets is replenishing to the body, Cloos said. During the procedure, much more blood is removed than in a typical donation. Platelets, which make the blood clot, are processed. The blood is recycled and put back into the body during the process. Donors can give platelets more often because they regenerate much faster than red blood cells. Those who give whole blood can only donate six times a year. “Platelets are routinely needed for a variety of treatments, including being used to help patients — kids and adults — undergoing chemotherapy or organ transplants, things where they have a weakened immune system,” Lambert said. “They have a shelf life of only five days compared to whole blood, which is usable for 42 days. A-positive donors like Larry can be excellent candidates for platelet donations.” Cloos has also donated stem cells and bone marrow, but those require a perfect match. In fact, in early 2000, Cloos was matched to donate bone marrow to a woman on the East Coast with spinal cancer. She was given only a few months to live, but his donation pushed her through almost another

That next August, when her husband called me to tell me she passed, I could hardly say anything.” If he stays healthy, his biggest goal is to donate 100 gallons, which will take 10 years, he said.

Asked if he would follow in his dad’s footsteps, Roman looked at his dad’s arm and turned his hands in the air. “I don’t know,” he said. “Maybe.” For Cloos, the opportunity to literally give of himself never gets old. “It’s a powerful and accomplished feeling to give the gift of life,” he said. “Time should never be a factor when saving a life.

The four-time Olympic gold medalist and 2015 NCAA Swimmer of the Year joined icons from the sports world — including Peyton Manning, LeBron James and Derek Jeter — in taking home a 2015 ESPY award, an honor ESPN bestows on top pro and amateur athletes. Franklin
and Jeter, Franklin, 20, now has a major endorsement deal. Swimwear giant Speedo announced a deal with Franklin on July 18. “As part of Team Speedo, Franklin will serve as a yearround brand ambassador, sharing her love of the water to inspire others, and will wear Speedo race suits when she represents the U.S. at all major competitions globally,” the company said in a news release. Franklin is preparing for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. While still a high school senior, she won five medals in the 2012 Olympics.
led the University of California-Berkeley to an NCAA championship in March. “It was an honor to win the ESPY award for best college female athlete,” Franklin said in an emailed statement. “I am so grateful to have had such an amazing end to my collegiate career, and I owe so much of my success my amazing teammates and coaching staff at UC Berkeley.” Franklin, a 2013 Regis Jesuit graduate, is now a professional. She made the decision to go pro shortly after leading Cal to the title during a record-setting sophomore campaign. And like Manning, James

Tough love needed to fight addiction plague Maybe it’s you, perhaps it’s a child of yours or a neighbor, or a neighbor’s child, or maybe it’s just someone you know or whom you have heard about. And in any case, the problem isn’t only theirs, it’s all of ours. That’s the bad news; the good news is that part of the positive solution is also ours. What I am talking about here is the pervasive and epidemic opiate and pain medication drug problem that is plaguing our nation and our local communities right here in Colorado. This drug problem is leading to addiction and unprecedented rates of heroin use, leading to overdose and death. If you had to ask yourself, and then also answer yourself honestly, could you name at least five people or families that you know in your immediate family or circle of friends who have been impacted by this epidemic? I’ll bet the answer is yes, and for some of you the number is even higher than five. For me personally, I can sadly and tragically count well above five. Several people very near and dear to me have a spouse or a child battling this fierce addiction. And tragically I have neighbors, family and friends who have lost someone to the disease of addiction or they are currently in the throes of the battle. Those of you who read this column regularly know that I try and maintain a positive outlook and share the winning words that many of you find comfort and motivation in. Although the topic is a bit dark, there is still positive motivation in my words. As I shared earlier, the problem is ours, but
so is the solution. Part of the solution is that we can no longer pretend that it doesn’t exist, and that it only impacts other families and kids and not our own. But let me remind you of the quote by Pastor Martin Niemoller that is found in the Holocaust Museum: Michael Norton “In Germany, the Nazis came first for WINNING the Communists, and I WORDS didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.” Here is where we come in … we have to speak to our family, to our children, to our neighbors and we have to wage war. They may try and win the battles, but together we can win the war. And stay with me here, the war is not the drug cartels and the drug dealers, the government and police have to deal with that. The war we have to wage and the positive and loving message we have to deliver is to our kids, our families, our spouses, our neighbors, our
neighbor’s kids, the butcher’s family, the baker’s family and the candlestick maker’s family. The doctor’s family, the lawyer’s family, and the Indian chief’s family. I am sure you get the message, we need to deliver this message to everyone. You see, you and me, we can write these nice columns and blogs, and we can read these comforting and motivational words, but if we do not demonstrate the essence of the love and forgiveness found in these words, if we do not let all of these people in our lives know that they matter, if we do not speak up now, and I mean right now, we will lose more and more of those we love. Addiction is a nasty disease, it takes over the lives of those it afflicts as well as the lives of the families and friends who are forced to deal with it. So we have two choices, take the high road and speak up, or bury our heads in the sand and pretend it doesn’t exist. Which road will you take? Whose life will you impact? Are you capable of loving someone through addiction? Are you capable of delivering tough love to someone through their addiction and recovery? It’s time to speak up and speak up now. I would love to hear your thoughts on this and your encouragement for others at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we have the courage and the love to speak up and speak up now, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

There’s a lot not to learn about technology I see where former Reddit CEO Ellen Pao apologized. What’s Reddit? I had to look it up. I’m not interested. I am not interested in Facebook either. Facebook asked me to be on Facebook because there were some people looking for me. I found out who they were. They were people I didn’t particularly care for when they were students of mine or when we were colleagues. Why in the world would I want to know what they were doing? Or tell them what I was doing? “Great self-promotion,” someone said. There is no such thing. It’s all luck and timing. I have tried everything but billboards. You can lead a horse to art, but you can’t make it collect. I avidly research stories behind the stories, like Reddit’s. Pao attended Princeton. She attended Harvard Business School. She attended Harvard Law School. That’s impressive. She’s married to someone named “Buddy,” who is a former hedge fund manager. What’s a hedge fund? I am the kid looking through a knothole at a baseball game. “Uninformed” is my middle name. One of them. I have no idea what an “app” is. I think it is short for “application.”
Craig Marshall Smith
QUIET DESPERATION
If that is true, I don’t like it. I will shorten a few words, but not beautiful ones like “application” and “refrigerator” and “vegetables.” I would get a divorce — I swear — if my wife said “fridge” once too often. Fingernails on a chalkboard that. By the way, there is no “d” in “refrigerator.” I don’t know what a “hashtag” is. I don’t
know what a “meme” is. But I know where the expression about the thirsty horse comes from. This is what it first looked like, in 1602: “They can but bringe horse to the water brinke, but horse may choose whether that horse will drinke.” It comes from a play. “Drinke” was pronounced “drink,” but I’d like it better if it were pronounced “drinkie.” New technologies are leaving me in the dust. Jennifer’s phone got us from the Rose Bowl in Pasadena to our hotel. The damn thing knew exactly where our rental car was. But it couldn’t tell us how to start the car.
Portfolios react to China, Greece Last month investors were concerned about finding opportunities in an overpriced market. In the ensuing weeks we suddenly had a myriad of opportunities, thanks to one tiny country in the Mediterranean and one giant country in the Northern Pacific. Greece is not a large enough country to cause all the press it has been receiving. However, the possibility that other countries, such as Spain, Portugal, France, Italy or Ireland, could follow suit was the worry. Although an agreement was recently announced, I doubt this will be the last we hear from Greece. With a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) the equivalent of the state of Wisconsin, we need to remember next time that this should not be a market mover for the long term. Second quarter returns were affected while the world waited for a plausible solution. During that time, Wall Street analysts stated Greece would not be a major driver of stock prices either way. However, the possible contagion of other countries finding an exit could have a serious impact. China, on the other hand, is the secondlargest economy in the world. This impacts
every country that trades with China as well as the worldwide GDP. Currently the outlook for China’s growth is diminished in the huge shadows of previous exuberant expansion when it was still emerging. However, compared to more developed countries, China’s 7 perPatricia Kummer cent GDP still towers over the United FINANCIAL and Europe STRATEGIES States and is a significant output. Chinese markets enjoyed a significant run-up in stock prices earlier this year and are now being repriced based on its exports to countries not growing significantly, such as Europe and the U.S., in addition to its own economic slowdown and Kummer continues on Page 9
Simple, huh? You turn the key. No. You have to tap dance on the accelerator. I am not entirely in the dark. I am pretty good on my computer. It’s where I write and forward my columns, and where my books are compiled and designed, including the covers. I have never met Judy, who works in Tattered Cover’s self-publishing press service, but we have created four books together. Some of my column’s headlines are written in Oregon. I have nothing to do with my headlines, by the way. They are always a surprise to me. This morning I went to my optometrist. Thousands of images of the inside of my eye were taken in, well, the blink of an eye. New technologies are being developed all of the time, and I am not keeping up. I think I would bore Ellen and Buddy. Then I will see a tribe on the National Geographic channel. The women are topless. Men wear nothing but jock straps made out of bark. And they are doing fine. And I’ll bet none of them knows that a hashtag is “a type of label or metadata tag used on social network and microblogging services which makes it easier for users to find messages with a specific theme or content” (Wikipedia). No idea. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Be careful what you ask for
I’ve been reading with interest the issue of vouchers for Douglas County parents who would like to choose alternative schools for their children. My children’s father and I faced the same dilemma, but we didn’t wait for a high court to make the decision for us. He was an enlisted man at Buckley Naval Air Station. Imagine, if you can, a household with one breadwinner, one car, one bathroom, one telephone, one TV. It was a struggle even with those “ones,” but we didn’t think of it as a sacrifice, because it was what we wanted for our children. At some point during their grade-school experience, the school was given a few amenities paid for by the government, which seemed exciting at the time — some pieces of sports equipment for one thing. The biggie was a remedial reading teacher, with the proviso that when she/ he was in the room, any religious articles had to be hidden in a drawer. It didn’t take long for the principal of the school to say, “thanks, but no thanks,” and we went back to making do without government help. Letters continues on Page 9

Misplaced trust in Iran will come back to haunt us The president’s recent nuclear enrichment agreement with Iran is an example of dangerous naiveté, based on a trust of Iran that is entirely misplaced, coupled with a gift of over $100 billion to Iran that it is likely to spend funding terrorism. While the president quietly pats himself on the back for negotiating in good faith with a regime that murders Americans, has vowed to destroy Israel and has no compunction about breaking agreements at its convenience, I am gravely concerned. The two issues of most concern to me are Iran’s history of dishonesty and the release of funds to Iran’s government that I believe Iran will use to fund ongoing terrorist efforts rather than to improve the lot of its people. When the nuclear talks with Iran first began, the purpose and intent of the plan was to permanently roll back Iran’s nuclear program. Over the course of the negotiations, the Obama administration backtracked on the original goals time and time again. While the secretary of state and the president stood in front of podiums and promised to ensure Iran’s military nuclear program’s dismantlement at the negotiating

hedging against a credit crisis. The Chinese government is purposely putting the brakes on economic growth, hoping to ward off the credit crisis that started here at home and continued across the European continent. As of this writing China’s markets are experiencing large swings, both up and down, depending on the day. This is part of the repricing that occurs after a major economic shift. American investors may be frustrated by their portfolios dropping based on other countries’ political and economic decisions. Thanks to the Great Reces-
table they quickly abandoned that goal. Meanwhile, Iran’s ability to lie, cheat and steal its way to success is all too well documented. Just take the example of their nuclear site at Fordow. According to a 2003 agreement, Iran U.S. Sen. was supposed to acMike Coffman knowledge all sites as soon as the decision GUEST to begin construcCOLUMN tion was made. But they hid the Fordow site and refused to acknowledge it until September 2009 after it was detected by Western intelligence agencies.

sion, we are now on a global economy, and there is no way to isolate ourselves from worldwide events. Meanwhile, the U.S. is starting earnings season to announce second-quarter corporate revenue. This is expected to be dampened by exports declining and the dollar too strong to be competitive around the globe. Long-term investors will seek opportunities when domestic and foreign stock prices are falling. This is in anticipation that there will be solutions to these problems and that consumers will still need to buy clothes and food. Emerging countries will buy more cars and build more urban housing, which should fuel economic growth. This is the part of the business cycle that can be unsettling. The U.S. has been stuck in a

Absent a wide-open inspection arrangement, expecting this murderous regime to comply is simply wishful thinking. The second issue is that this agreement will provide Iranian-backed terrorists a new source of funding. While sanctions based on Iran’s support for terrorist activities, humanrights abuses and missile development are not part of this deal, estimates are that with the end of nuclear sanctions, Iran may attain access to as much as $150 billion. The key question then is what Iran will do with those funds. Given that our modernday relationship with Iran began in 1979 when the Islamic Republic of Iran allowed the seizure of our embassy in Tehran and held 52 American hostages for 444 days, I am not optimistic Iran’s government will use these funds solely for peaceful purposes. Iran has routinely provided advanced explosive capabilities to our enemies in Iraq and Afghanistan, causing the death of American soldiers and thousands of innocent Iraqi and Afghani civilians. Additionally, Iran is a major sponsor and funder of terrorist organizations such as Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis. The

Iranian government claims that the released funds will go toward peaceful purposes, but I cannot believe it. I am convinced these funds will build a lot of car bombs, improvised explosive devices, and fund terrorists that will place our citizens, friends and allies at great risk. Why President Obama thinks he can trust Iran is simply a mystery for me. While he apparently sees Iran and its religious radicals as the leaders of just another nation, those of us who served in the region, as I have on multiple occasions, see Iran for what it is — a terrorist regime that wants to kill Americans and wipe Israel off the map. The president has now chosen to trust Iran’s extremist leaders to adhere to a deal. I have no such trust and will oppose this deal when it reaches Congress. U.S. Rep.

Homes smarter in cordless world Customers get entertainment they want, how they want it
“The only reason it’s not is because they haven’t figured out how to charge for it,” Salazar said. “It’s all about content protection.” According to Forbes magazine, Comcast and Time Warner Cable are two of the nation’s largest broadband providers — broadband accounts for 47 percent of Time Warner’s value compared to 31 percent for cable TV.
By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com As an aviation electronics expert in the Marine Corps during the early 1990s, Fernando Salazar could see the future. “I worked with a lot of really high-tech stuff,” Salazar said. “Because of my background in the military, I had a firm grasp of digital electronics. (The military) is always ahead of residential use.” After retiring from the Marines, Salazar and his wife, Debbie, decided to turn his knowledge of technology into a business in 2000. “We were at the point of switching from analog to digital, and most of the businesses that were doing this prior to then were car stereo type places,” Salazar said. “We jumped in this like a fish in water when everything went digital.” The couple now owns SmartLife Audio and Video in the Castle Pines Village shopping area. They moved to Colorado three years ago from Florida, where the business began. SmartLife specializes in high-tech entertainment and home applications. Back in 2000, the Salazars recognized a cord-cutting trend in media consumption that has changed the way we consume content 15 years later. According to a 2013 Pew Research study, 70 percent of American adults have a highspeed broadband Internet connection at home. For young adults between the ages of 18-29, home broadband use is more than 80 percent. “All electronics now are network-based, so whether you’re streaming Pandora or Netflix, HBO, whatever it might be, it’s running through your home network and onto the big broadband providers,” Salazar said.
The speed of innovation Dial-up Internet connections and the first glimpses of the Web appeared around 1993. By 1996, the earliest forms or broadband had become available in North America. From 2000-01 the number of broadband subscriptions increased 50 percent, and by 2010, 65 percent of all American households had broadband access, according to Cisco. And with that, home entertainment has changed, with many leaving behind tradi-

band service is what it is these days,” Salazar said. Cable giant Comcast recently launched its new Comcast Stream, a $15 per month subscription that allows users to watch live television online. It is the first package from Comcast that will not require a cable subscription. Live television channels can only be watched while customers are on their home Internet connections. When customers are on the road, they’ll be able to watch ondemand and recorded videos but not live television through Comcast’s service. Salazar said he sees all media eventually becoming a la carte choices online through devices like Apple TV, Roku and satellite television providers like Dish Network and DirecTV.
From his chair in the middle of the showroom, Salazar flipped through what he called scenes. Morning, dinner, bedtime: With each touch, the lights, temperature, music and television change to create a specifically tailored atmosphere. “That’s where we’re at nowadays. I should be able to pull out my phone or tablet, and I should be able to watch TV, listen to music, adjust my thermostat and dim my lights,” Salazar said. The combination of these technologies makes up what he calls smart homes. Once available to the wealthy few, the move by many companies from hardware to primarily software development has made innovations affordable for the middle class. “A lot of companies used to make their own proprietary touch panels, but what they realized is that no one is better at making handheld devices than Android and Apple and those companies,” Salazar said. According to a Pew Research study in 2013, 88 percent of adults owned a cell phone, 61 percent owned a laptop and 34 percent owned a tablet. “There’s more than just a convenience to this,” Debbie Salazar said. “There’s energy savings by keeping the lights and temperature at the optimal levels, there’s the safety of being able to pull up to your home at night and having the lights come on intuitively, and it keeps your sanity for women. We tend to not care for three remote controls and wires all over the place.” Now, even the various applications from television to lights, temperature and shades on windows can be run through a single app. Streamlining and interconnectivity have become prerequisites for bringing a product to market. “I’ve seen everything change from when everything was analog to where it is now, and everything is going to end up being networked digitally,” Salazar said. “That’s the platform of the future. You’re still going to have to run cable for good broadband service, but you won’t have to pay for the things you don’t want.”

Member Spotlight: Cherokee Ranch and Castle Calendar of Events
Cherokee welcomes James Holmes as new Executive Director By Anne Marie Boger, South Metro Denver Chamber If you’ve never visited Cherokee Ranch & Castle, you’re robbing yourself of a true Colorado experience. Tucked away on a privately owned, 3400 acre ranch in Douglas County is a true gem and legacy of Tweet Kimball, a Colorado cattle ranching pioneer. Tweet Kimball established the Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation which entered into a Conservation Easement for the property on December 10, 1996. This unique venue facilitates a house museum, wildlife conservation, land preservation and has become a treasured venue for a variety of activities and site of many elegant parties. At Cherokee Ranch & Castle you can enjoy lunch on the terrace with a sprawling view from Pikes Peak to Longs Peak, take a geology hike to explore the Colorado’s largest petrified wood forest, or enjoy a front row seat to a Blues concert. There’s opportunities for high tea, castle tours, and farm to table dinners. The venue is so stunning, couples dreams come true with beautiful weddings on the veranda. Artists have recorded full albums in the great hall and music videos in the courtyard. The list goes on: private corporate events, celebration of life ceremonies, youth education excursions, wine tastings, and marquee birthday parties. Cherokee Ranch &C astle is an exquisite part of Colorado and has been since 1954. So what’s new? In March of this year, the Board of Directors of Cherokee Ranch & Castle began their search for a new Executive Director. James Holmes, a Colorado native, entrepreneur, and philanthropist had been contracted to the foundation for a short period of time and was asked to compete for the position; first by becoming the Interim Director as the board explored their option concerning a big decision. The group of candidates was narrowed to 8, then a final 3, and 3 became one. Holmes humbly accepted the position late last week, and is looking forward to the opportunities and challenges his official position will bring. So as another chapter begins for the history of Cherokee Ranch & Castle, what does Colorado have to look forward to? We stopped by Cherokee Ranch to ask the new Executive Director himself. On the history of Cherokee… The history of Cherokee is very important to Holmes and one of the reasons why he
is so passionate about his new position. The Castle was built in 1924 by the Charles Johnson; their original vision for the land was a summer home for his family. As time went on, the family found themselves using the castle less and less, and sold their summer home and surrounding properties to Tweet Kimball, a southern belle and debutante from Tennessee. Tweet needed a new home after a divorce settlement, which included her husband’s purchase of a new home for Tweet as long as she moved West of the Mississippi. In 1954 Tweet and her two young sons Richard and Kirk moved to then “Charlesford” before renaming the property Cherokee Ranch. Tweet was a trailblazer with a strong interest in cattle. Inspired by the unique Santa Gertrudis of the King Ranch, which initially refused to sell their warm climate cattle to Tweet for a ranch in Colorado. Never one to accept no for an answer, Tweet found another seller and for the first time the Santa Gertrudis breed was introduced to Colorado; this was the onset of her cattle ranching business. A business that still exists today, there are now 140 Getrudis that call Cherokee their home. Tweet went on to establish the Rocky Mountain Santa Gertrudis Association and become the first woman to ever serve on the National Western Stock Show’s Board of Directors, among numerous other accomplishments as a respected cattle rancher. On Tweet’s legacy… In 1996, Tweet worked to establish the Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation, a conservation easement that protects the land as a wildlife sanctuary. She passed away in 1999, and the Board of Directors, staff, and volunteers have been keeping her legacy alive since. Her passion for the music, art, and literature has “inspired us to make Cherokee a prominent venue for music,” Holmes said. He feels it’s what she would have been pleased to see, and went on to say he feels an obligation to uphold what Tweet would have wanted. On Holmes’ legacy… “What is it that I would want my lasting legacy to be? With a lot of non-profits, you hear about the legacy of their Directors, so if someone 20 years from now were discussing mine, I would want people to look back and say that James Holmes fully restored Tweet’s legacy, and that I made decisions that were thoughtful, and that those decisions were made with the long-term view in mind. I want to make decisions and put policies in
place that make it easy for future Executive Directors here to make good decisions. I also would like to have made a turning point financially for Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation so that we can fulfill our potential and fully realize Tweet’s dream.” Holmes’ background is anything but ordinary. A former race car driver, equestrian athlete, and cyclist turned corporate sponsorship developer, who spent 26 years in the mortgage and real estate industry as a serial entrepreneur since 1983. In 1997, He began volunteering for a lot of philanthropic organizations and political candidates and causes. Holmes developed a particular interest in the area of fundraising for public art. In 2001, he helped raise $1 million dollars for the Martin Luther King “I Have a Dream” monument in Denver’s City Park. He has been on the Denver Art Museum Board of Trustees since 2004. He’s been involved with dozens of public service organizations, appointed to several boards, recognized as a recipient of the Denver Business Journal’s “40 Under 40 Business Leaders Award,” perhaps most proud to have received the “Juanita Ross Gray Community Service Award” among other honors. “I’ve given a lot of time to the arts and non-profit organizations, so when I look at Cherokee Ranch I see lots of challenges and yet there are many more opportunities. My professional and philanthropic backgrounds are fully in alignment here,” and then added, “timing for this amazing job could not have been more perfect in this time in my life. I love coming here and I would like to be here for the next 20 years of my life.” On Holmes’ vision… “We are going to make Cherokee Ranch’s cattle operation prominent again,” he said. “Over the last few years, Tweet’s importance to the Cherokee story has become a little diluted; the idea that we are stewards of Tweet’s vision was dwindling and this will also be corrected. One of my primary objectives is to restore Tweet fully, as well as ensure her legacy stands the test of time. Tweet is the reason this place has become a Colorado treasure and a gift for all of us today.” Cherokee Ranch and Castle is a true marvel and important part of the Rocky Mountain Region. With Holmes in charge, no doubt it’s in great hands and will continue to thrive.

S1 Tavern Uptown going even more ‘up’ with rooftop 12 Highlands Ranch Herald
July 23, 2015
The building that houses the Tavern Uptown, a popular watering hole at 538 E. 17th Ave., is being redeveloped into a mixed-use project with plans to develop an eight-story building with roughly 315 apartments and 14,000 square feet of retail space, which will include the addition of a rooftop patio for the Tavern on top of the eight-story building. A joint venture between Southern Land Co. of Nashville, Tennessee, and real estate investment firm GTIS Partners LP, headquartered in New York City, has announced plans for the redevelopment of a 1.5-acre site in the Uptown neighborhood. Tim Downey, CEO of Southern Land Co., said, “We are delighted to have the opportunity to develop much-needed apartment housing in Denver while enabling a popular neighborhood gathering spot to continue to thrive and serve its loyal customers. This location offers the ideal setting to benefit the
community, businesses and residents alike.” “ W e c o u l d n’t be more pleased with the site’s proxPenny Parker imity to downtown MILE HIGH jobs and LIFE its easy access to U p t o w n’s amenities and parks” added Ken Howell, CFO of Southern Land Co. “Over the years, we’ve been approached by various developers who wanted to purchase our property,” says THG Owner/CEO Frank Schultz. ”We’ve always declined because we have a history in Uptown and could never imagine leaving the neighborhood. Tavern Uptown was our first location — the birthplace of
continues to lure millions of young and old fans to their infectious feel-good songs through films (“Muriel’s Wedding,” “Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert”) and the Broadway musical and film hit “Mamma Mia!” In an interview with the Associated Press, songwriter Bjorn Ulvaeus said that ABBA would never do a reunion tour. “Money is not a factor, and we would like people to remember us as we were. Young, exuberant, full of energy and ambition.” Well, here is your opportunity to relive the ABBA phenomenon. The Music of ABBA With Arrival From Sweden, the world’s foremost ABBA tribute show, comes to Colorado at 8 p.m. July 29 at Red Rocks Amphiteatre (doors open at 6:30). For more information, and to sample music and video on the band, go to www.themusicofabba.com. Tickets are $34 general admission (plus service charges), and available at www.ticketmas-
Tavern — so it’s pretty sentimental to us. We feel we’re part of the fabric of the community and have grown with the neighborhood. Our regular guests have been coming for years and are family to us. “Southern Land Company recognized our steadfast stance of keeping Tavern Uptown in our same location. They proposed a plan, which includes Tavern Uptown in the redesign of their new multifamily building. This is a really exciting opportunity for us to keep Tavern Uptown in the community, yet create a bigger and better version.” The Tavern Uptown will not close for rebuilding until early next year. The Tavern has seven other metro-area locations — Downtown, Lowry, Denver Tech Center, Wash Park, Ballpark, Mile High and Littleton.

‘Art Encounters’ pieces add to area’s aesthetics Douglas County program has 25 sculptures on display
IF YOU GO These pieces of public art are on display through the year. One might want to print out and tuck away a list with addresses in the glove compartment and search them out through the summer — with help from the kids. Perhaps in some cases, one could enjoy a quick picnic next to a new art piece as you get acquainted. See: douglas.co.us/artencounters/2015sculptures
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com From Jan. 1 to Feb. 14, artists submitted entries on the callforentry.org website for the 2015 Douglas County Art Encounters program, and in the second half of February, the Public Art Advisory Committee selected 25 sculptures for this year’s program. The committee then draws to determine which piece will be situated at which site in Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, Parker and Castle Rock. Funding from the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District helps with the first three, and since Castle Rock is not in the SCFD, it gets funding from the Philip S. Miller Fund. In May and June, the previous year’s sculptures are removed and each jurisdiction schedules installation with the artists chosen for the new year. (Hopefully, some will have sold — all work is for sale.) Douglas County residents can begin to enjoy new works as they visit their libraries, parks, business areas and recreation cen-

Golfers tee off on No. 10, a par 4, at The Links Golf Course in Highlands Ranch as the group ahead finishes up on the putting green. Photos by Jim Benton
Golfers urged to get moving Game’s etiquette calls for more than replacing divots By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Two young men walk toward the starter’s booth at the Broken Tee Englewood golf course. One wears jeans and a tank top, the other basketball shorts, also sporting a sleeveless shirt. Neither wears golf shoes. Traditional etiquette would have required them to wear dress pants, or maybe dress shorts, and a collared shirt for the four-hour-plus endeavor ahead of them. While some country clubs still require such formal wear, at many courses, the times have changed — and to take a line from the “Caddyshack” soundtrack, it’s “all right.” “In an industry that is oversupplied and is struggling for rounds, don’t we need to make it more friendly and less stodgy and relax dress codes?” said Ed Mate, executive director of the Colorado Golf Association. “I guarantee you, today there are very few courses that are going to turn customers away regardless of the way they are dressed. People are definitely less patient today. Maybe golf can be a part of the solution. The game is hard and takes a lot of discipline to be successful. That’s always been the case.” While patience is a virtue in the Part 2 of 3 on finding game, many beways to get better lieve the failure at and get more of golfers to pick enjoyment out of golf. up the pace during a round is the biggest violation of etiquette on today’s courses.
RAISING YOUR
GAME
A need for speed
Most golfers know, or should have been taught, that raking bunkers, replacing divots, not stepping in another player’s line on the putting green and repairing ball marks on the green are part of golf etiquette. But perhaps the biggest issue players should monitor is how well they are keeping up with the group ahead of them. “Pace of play is probably the hardest thing on a golf course to control,” said Broken Tee pro shop assistant Joe Pagnotta, who serves as a course ranger three or four times a week. “The easiest way to explain it is there is only one lane of traffic. If the speed limit is 60 and a car is going 40, the ones in front will all still go 60, but the ones
Stepping on the line of another player’s putt is a violation of golf etiquette. Photo illustration
NEED TO KNOW While you probably already know not to yell “miss it” or “Noonan” on the putting green, the following are some other golf-etiquette tips that could spare you the wrath of playing partners. The USGA adopted the “while we’re young” slogan to boost pace of play, and the message is on display near the first hole at South Suburban Golf Course in Centennial. Rose Carroll is on duty as the starter as a group gets set to tee off. behind will go 40. “That’s what happens on the golf course. One group can ruin it for the rest.” Tom Woodard, director of golf for the Foothills Park and Recreation District, emphasizes that slow play is a hazard. “Our game has been stagnant for about a dozen years,” Woodard said. “We’re slowly losing golfers, and we’re not gaining any golfers. The top two reasons people say they don’t play golf is the time it takes and cost.” In the 1980 comedy film “Caddyshack,” Rodney Dangerfield played Al Czervik, who became peeved it was taking so long for a judge, played by Ted Knight, to hit the ball, so he uttered, “Let’s go … while we’re young.” Two years ago, the United States Golf Association adopted “while we’re young” as an initiative to combat slow play.
Stepping up pace
South Suburban Golf Course in Centennial doesn’t employ marshals but has an extra person in the pro shop who tends to any course problems. They have a greeter on the first hole to remind players of golf etiquette and pace of play, and the course has signs that say “while we’re young.” Taking a page from the Denver Broncos’ Peyton Manning, the course also employs signs im-
parting “hurry, hurry.” Several local golf professionals and executives offered tips to speed the pace of play, like hitting from closer tees that are more manageable, playing courses that are not too difficult and engaging “ready golf,” which among other things, could mean ignoring “honors” and letting the first person to the tee box hit first and continue putting instead of marking your ball. “Another thing that has ruined pace of play is television,” Pagnotta said. “Golfers watch TV. The pros are playing for a million dollars, so they need to take their time and do what they do. Out here, you have to play ready golf.” Marshals or rangers, who are on the course to enforce rules like pace of play, can be intimidating to some. “I like it quicker, but I’ve been in groups that have been put on the clock,” said Broken Tee MetaGolf instructor Jason Preeo, who has played in the U.S. Open and coaches the boys team at Valor Christian. “It makes me very uncomfortable.” Rangers don’t bother Stan Wood of Denver, a men’s club member at Broken Tee. “They don’t intimidate me at all,” Wood said. “I’d like to see more of them. I can see how it could affect some players. Most of them are pretty good guys.”
From the ‘King’ A sampling of what Arnold Palmer told Golf Digest in 2008: • Repair the ground you play on, be it the tee, putting green, bunker or fairway. Before you leave a bunker, for example, ask yourself, “Would I be upset if I had to play from that spot?” In other words, replace those divots, fix those ball marks and rake those sand traps. • Be a silent partner. Stand still from the time a player sets up to the time the ball leaves the club. Never stand in the line of play. “When a player is about to hit their shot, think of the fairway as a cathedral, the green a library.” • Turn off the cell phone. Do whatever you have to do to keep the phone quiet. “If you absolutely have to make a call, move away from the other players. And keep the call brief so that they do not even know you made it.” From the PGA Tour A few tips that can be found on pga.com: • From the time you select your club until you actually hit your shot, you should take no more than 30 to 45 seconds. • Don’t step on your fellow players’ putting lines — the imaginary line that connects the ball to the hole. • Don’t hit if there’s a chance your shot might reach the group ahead of you. And if you think there’s even a slim chance the shot you just struck might hit another player, yell “fore” immediately.

Ripples could spread from soccer splash World Cup win by American women could boost girls’ interest in sport By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Jared Spires, chief operating officer for the Colorado Real soccer club, was in Maui on July 5 when the U.S. women beat Japan 5-2 to win the World Cup soccer championship. “I was fortunate to be in Maui for my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary, and just to hear all the shouts along the beach when goals were scored was awesome,” said Spires. “I could hear all the different resorts with cheers going up when we scored. It was cool.” But will the United States’ World Cup win do anything to spark interest in the general public for soccer in America? Soccer is one of the world’s most popular sports. However, in the United State it is a popular sport for mostly the young generation — for a majority of the public, it is only watched during the World Cup or Olympics as a patriotic gesture.
“Winning the World Cup does help to an extent,” said Colorado Rush Director of Operations Justin Miller. “But not enough, especially on the women’s side. One, it’s a tad bit slower than the men’s game and, two, there are just more popular faces on the men’s side. “They get all the media, and the kids watch all of that on the men’s side rather than the girls’ side. But the women have an incredible amount of power with other women. So young girls actually have more of a passion to watch older women more than the young men watch the older men.” Spires believes it could take some more time before overall soccer popularity swells in this country. “It’s a long road to relevancy, and hats off to the women’s team for being fantastic,” he said. “There were three hours of coverage of the parade. I don’t think we’ve seen that kind of coverage before. “There’s a good possibility that we can maintain this momentum but we might be a generation away. It will take when these kids that are growing up in this generation of loving the sport and have real-life experiences in the sport start having kids. We’re going in the right direction for sure.”
Family Owned, Family Run
Said Mossavian, director of operations and competitive division for the Colorado Storm, feels the American win could be a big help. “I see soccer every day,” Mossovian commented after watching his U12 girls team compete in their first scrimmage. “It’s good for us. It makes us more passionate about the game. For the average Joe that really doesn’t care, they know about it and talk about it. “So maybe the only impact winning the World Cup will have is a positive one as far as talking negative about soccer. Maybe winning things like this will have an impact on the negative opinions of the game.” The way they women won could also only help. “Success breeds attention,” said Spires of the U.S. grabbing an early 4-1 lead. “And the way they did it. For the casual observer a 5-2 game is exciting. If you watched the first 20 minutes, it squashed your belief of soccer. “Where soccer needs to get to is when that next generation comes through, a more educated fan will come through where they enjoy a small scored game, a 2-0, 2-1 game, and that’s when you will see the sport thrive.”

Renaissance Festival pleases crowds in its 39th season By Taryn Walker
twalker@colorado communitymedia.com With only a few weeks left, the Colorado Renaissance Festival in Larkspur was full of visitors on a recent day. On July 12, several hundred people were adorned in fairy wings, wizard cloaks and even pirate peg legs, snacking on turkey legs and throwing back mugs of beer — all in the spirit of making magical memories. The fest’s animals were a main attraction. With endangered cat shows throughout the day, crowds “awed” over watching panthers and tigers climb on beams to swat at what looked like kitten toys. Camels, llamas and elephants gave rides to people of all ages. White horses beamed down the jousting arena as they were applauded. Dozens of rides kept little ones busy while the jousting tournament went on. People gathered around the arena to see knights battle, which even led to a sword duel on foot with Sir William, Lord of Whitehall, claiming victory. The 39th season means a busy time for all who work at the festival, but it didn’t stop ladies and lords from charming the crowd with “Renaissance speak.” Those who need to take out a little aggression paid to thrust tomatoes at a rennie’s face, while others sat back and relaxed while watching the Kamikaze Fireflies juggle fire. The Renaissance Festival, located 650 Perry Park Ave., is open Saturday and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. For its last weekend, a Fare Thee Well & Mardi Gras Carnivale is set to take place on Aug. 1-2 to celebrate King Henry’s 525th birthday and mark a memorable wrapup to the 39th season of the festival.
