Global stature on the rise Business leaders weigh 3 million mark for Denver metro By Amy Woodward
awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com Denver may be home to more than 600,000 people, but add the surrounding cities and counties, and the Denver metro area is expected to collectively grow to 3 million people. In fact, it may have already happened, a milestone that firmly places the area on the international radar in the global competition for jobs. According to estimates from the State Demographer’s Office, the population may have hit the 3 million mark in mid-August, but demographers won’t know for sure until next July, said Elizabeth Garner, a state demographer. In July, the estimated population of the Denver area was 2.951 million people. “The growth that Colorado is experiencing right now is not that unusual,” said Garner, reporting an increase of 78,000 people last

A GREAT PLACE TO BE Colorado ranked first in the country for the lowest obesity rate. A study released by Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation considered adult obesity rates by state and reported that every state had obesity rates above 20 percent. Colorado reported the lowest rate of 21.3 percent. A recent study by WalletHub ranked Colorado as the fourth happiest state in the country. The study considered 26 key metrics including emotional health, income levels, and sports participation rates. The top three happiest states in order were Utah, Minnesota and North Dakota. Outside magazine released a ranking of the 100 best companies to work, with 28 of those businesses located in Colorado. Four of the top 10 spots and half of the top 20 were Colorado companies. Sphero, a Boulder-based robotic toy manufacturer, ranked third, the highest spot of all Colorado companies. Also in the top 20 was GroundFloor Media (4th), Zen year compared to 120,000 people at one time during the 1990s. Typical or not, local political and business leaders are taking notice of the population growth and weighing in about that means for the area. “It’s a brave new world for us,” said Tom Clark, chief executive of the Metro Denver Economic Development Corp. and executive vice president of the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce. “At 2 million people, a metropolitan region becomes a perpetual job machine,” he said, citing a study conducted by a research economist in the early 1990s. At the 2 million mark, a city begins to grow its own jobs and becomes self-sustaining, Clark explained. Money stays within the community longer and exits later while wealth and income tend to go up. But at 3 million, a city or in this case — a metropolitan area — makes its debut on the world stage. “Three million begins to put you into a global competition for jobs,” Clark said. In the past, Colorado’s biggest competitors for job locations were Phoenix and Dallas. Today,

Wheat Ridge eyes funds City considers $794,000 reserve for city general fund By Hugh Johnson Wheat Ridge City Council mentioned the Zoppè Italian Circus and the vehicle replacement program during discussions Oct. 20 to trim the city budget. In hopes of balancing the budget without getting into reserves, council directed city staff to look at areas to make cuts. This year, the revenue for the general fund is $28,990,382 but the city expects to spend $29,784,588, requiring them to use $794,206 of the reserve fund to balance the budget. The use of almost $800,000 of the reserve fund didn’t sit well with District Two Councilwoman Kristi Davis who suggested city staff
and council evaluate the budget to see where the city could make cuts. “I think this our first shot, and I think we can go back and maybe do a little better, Davis said. “So basically my consensus is that all of us, council and staff, move toward a balanced budget without using reserves.” District One Councilman William Starker suggested that the city staff look at postponing a project to rebuild the 29th and Fenton street intersection. Starker said the project will cost the city $200,000 and the city should wait until improvements to the Ashland Reservoir are complete. The improvement calls for two new underground water storage tanks. Construction began in 2013 and is expected to finish in 2017. City Manager Patrick Goff informed Starker that the city may be obli-
gated to complete renovations to the 29th and Fenton intersection in a timely manner due to restrictions imposed by an intergovernmental agreement. Jerry DiTullio, the other District One council representative, asked staff to look at the vehicle replacement program. DiTullio pointed out that the city spent $516,000 on vehicle replacement this year, noting that the city typically spends between $200,000 to $400,000 annually replacing city vehicles such as police cars and city maintenance trucks. DiTullio suggested the city could look to get more mileage out of some of the vehicles. Also, DiTullio said that $80,000 goes to the city for marketing and then another $50,000 goes to Wheat Ridge 2020 for similar purposes. He suggested that perhaps those two funds could be consoli-
dated. Davis spoke to the possibility of discontinuing the city’s partnership with the Zoppè Italian Circus. For the past three years, Wheat Ridge has been in a contract with the circus in which the city provides the upfront costs to put on the event and the circus shares some of the revenue it generates back to the city. The initial goal was that the circus’s profits would eventually exceed or at least cover the city’s investment of $100,000, however the circus has failed to do so, returning roughly 60 percent of the of money. “I’m not sure that its (Zoppè Circus) at the vision that we expected to be in after three years,” Davis said. “If I’m thinking of not giving the senior resource commuter bus $12,000 but giving a weak circus $30,000, I don’t feel good doing that.”

State’s two big races closer than expected Gubernatorial, Senate contests have incumbents on edge By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com There will be no need for manicure appointments this week for the four candidates involved in Colorado’s gubernatorial and U.S. Senate races — because Election Night is expected to be a real nail-biter. “This is one of the most exciting elections in Colorado history,” said Bob Loevy, a longtime state political observer and political science professor from Colorado College. “I can’t recall a governor’s race and a Senate race neck-and-neck, right at the same time.” The question for the Democratic incumbents, Gov. John Hickenlooper and Sen. Mark Udall, is whether they will be able to ride out an expected national Republican wave on Nov. 4. Loevy said the wave historically is a reliable one, and it’s one that could sweep U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner into the Senate and could help former Congressman Bob Beauprez become the next governor of Colorado. Loevy calls it the “six-year pushback,” which occurs every sixth year of a U.S. presidency. The pushback is born from a midterm election political environment that historically favors the party that does not control the White House. Loevy said the wave goes back as far as 1938, when Democrats lost seats in Congress during Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s presidency. More recently, Democrats dominated the 2006 midterm elections, which were held during George W. Bush’s
sixth year as president. Bill Clinton proved to be the exception in 1998, when Democrats performed well during that year’s mid-term election cycle, a result of voter backlash against the perceived overreach of Republicans’ response to Clinton’s affair with Monica Lewinsky. The wave doesn’t just impact federal races, Loevy said. “If you back me into a corner, I would say I think the Republicans are going to win the governorship because of the sixyear pushback,” he said. If that happens, Hickenlooper supporters surely will be asking themselves how things ever got to that point. “That would be most inexplicable to me,” said Eric Sondermann, an independent political analyst. “If you would have told people six months ago that when ballots are being sent to mailboxes, it would be a dead-heat race, a lot of people would have taken that bet.” Odds did not favor a Republican gubernatorial win this spring. Hickenlooper’s quirky personality and his insistence on never running a negative campaign seemed to resonate with voters through the early part of his first term. The state’s economy had been gaining steam under Hickenlooper’s stewardship, and early Republican primary polls showed polarizing former Congressman Tom Tancredo leading the pack of GOP primary hopefuls. Instead it was Beauprez who won the nomination in June — the man tagged as “both ways Bob” when he was badly beaten by Bill Ritter in the 2006 gubernatorial race. Beauprez’s baggage from his previous run left Hickenlooper supporters feeling good about their chances come November. However, for months, the Beauprez campaign has hammered away at Hickenlooper’s perceived lack of leadership in several areas. At the top of that list was the governor’s decision to grant a reprieve for death-row inmate Nathan Dunlap, who killed four people at an Aurora Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant in 1993. Hickenlooper
received criticism for taking a middle path rather than going forward with either an execution or clemency. The governor also caused a media stir over the summer during a gathering of state sheriffs, where he fumbled comments on gun-control legislation that he signed into law the year before. Meanwhile, Beauprez has mostly run a mistake-free campaign. But will that be enough to take down a likable governor of a state that typically doesn’t oust incumbents from the job? Norman Provizer, a political science professor at Metropolitan State University, said Beauprez seems to have learned from his “disastrous” 2006 bid and that part of his strategy this time is to simply stay out of Hickenlooper’s way while the governor makes mistakes on the campaign trail. “It’s basically don’t do anything stupid and don’t say very much,” Provizer said. Sondermann agrees, but added that Beauprez needs to do more than that in order to be successful Nov. 4. “He’s been the person standing by the side of train tracks and seeing if the freight train derails,” Sondermann said of Beauprez’s campaign strategy. “If it does, you’re there to pick up the pieces. Is the passive strategy enough to get him to get over the finish line or does he need a closer? My instinct is he needs a closer.”
Women’s rights in spotlight Meanwhile, the Udall-Gardner matchup has been one of the most closely followed Senate races in the country. Women’s issues have dominated the campaign, with the Udall team launching an early-and-often advertising blitz against Gardner, which has attempted to paint the conservative congressman as being out of touch or too extreme on issues pertaining to women’s reproductive rights. But Udall has been criticized for having run what some perceive to be a one-issue campaign that is obsessed with capturing support of women voters.
Provizer surmises that the Udall campaign must be seeing internal polling numbers that show the attacks against Gardner are working and that “it’s always a good political move to define your opponent.” “But it became so much of it that it lost its effectiveness,” Provizer said. Also possibly working against Udall are recent crises outside of his control that could favor Republicans this fall. Whether that’s fair to Democrats is another story. Analysts agree that the rise of ISISbacked terrorism in the Middle East and questions over the government’s response to the ongoing Ebola virus threat may help Republicans on Nov. 4, because those developments happened on Obama’s watch. “Just weeks before ballots are mailed out in Colorado, those are about the two worst things to happen to Democrats, not only for what happened, but the timing,” Loevy said. “It is awfully a tough year to be carrying the Democrat banner, particularly in a federal race,” Sondermann added. “The bloom has fallen off the rose for Obama, there’s ISIS, Ebola ... there’s just very little good news for any Democrat.” But Democrats still have a major advantage going for them that gives supporters hope — the vaunted Democratic get-outthe-vote machine. Democrats have lapped Republicans in voter efforts in recent elections, and their outreach to women and Latino voters helped Michael Bennet win a close 2010 Senate contest that he had been trailing in polls leading up to Election Day. “Everyone talks about this modern-day political, technological war out there,” Provizer said. “But there still remains a World War I aspect about a campaign, and that’s trench warfare on the ground.” Whatever happens on Nov. 4, political observers say they will be enjoying the show. “Stepping aside from who might win and lose, what an election,” Loevy said. “You can’t ask for anything more than that.”

Jeffco residents lead in voter turnout County makes official change over to mail-in ballots By Amy Woodward
awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com Jeffco Election and Voting Center at 3500 Illinois St. is buzzing with activity in its multiple ballot sorting rooms in the basement below, with mailed in ballots arriving daily. Over 76,813 votes have been cast in Jeffco, according to numbers released by the Colorado Secretary of State last week. The turnout results show Jeffco is in the lead for the highest voter turnout so far for the 2014 Election. El Paso county is the second highest followed by Arapahoe County. Of the number reported for voter turnout in Jeffco, 31,323 voters of the Republican Party have already submitted their choices, following 24,789 voters of the Democratic Party. Citizens who registered unaffiliated made up 19,998 of the votes already submitted, while members of the Libertarian Party, Green Party and American Constitution Party make up the rest. Jeffco Clerk and Recorder Pam Anderson is urging eligible voters to return mailin ballots early or head down to any voting center that is the most convenient. Fullservice voter and polling centers which are no longer assigned to a person’s place of residence are now open across Jeffco. The centers allow voters to update voter information, request a ballot or access voting equipment. Mail-in ballots assigned to voters who have chosen to receive one have already been sent out. “If you have already decided and you have your ballot, go ahead and vote and drop it off to us,” Anderson said. “Certainty, we don’t want folks to mistakenly put their ballot in the U.S. Postal Service stream on
Election Day because we are not going to receive it in time.” This election marks the start of the county’s new voting system where every eligible voter was set to receive a mail-in ballot automatically. “Eighty-two percent of us were permanent mail (in 2012), we were pretty much there,” Anderson said. Critics have pushed back on the change to mail-in voting stating it is unsafe because it allows for opportunities for voter fraud. “That is typically said by someone who is not aware or hasn’t researched the Colorado process regarding the signature verification and the integrity in it,” Anderson said. “My experience has been it’s very secure, and the process really does evaluate every ballot for its eligibility, and we communicate with voters directly,” she said. Signatures are verified by computer, and by trained experts to match the current signature on the ballot to voter signatures on record. Red flags are usually raised for first-time voters or young voters who are prone to change their signatures as they try to establish an identity, Anderson said. Voters of flagged ballots are contacted, and asked about the discrepancy. Those that do not get back to the election’s division regarding discrepancies with their signature, will have their ballot rejected and referred to the District Attorney for investigation. Common issues raised throughout the signature verification process include members of households signing for others. “People have to sign their own ballots,” Anderson said, and those exercising power of attorney does not apply. Location for ballot drop off and voter service centers can be found online at www.votejeffco.com or by calling the elections division at 303-271-8111. On Election Day, polls will be open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mail-in ballots can be dropped off in person until 7 p.m. on Election Day.

Did You Have a Bad Real Estate Experience? Here Are Some Actions You Can Take
By JIM SMITH, Realtor ®
When people know you’re a real estate agent, they want to talk real estate, and occasionally the conversation turns to bad experiences they have had with the various professionals involved in real estate transactions. I’m not an expert on where to complain about other professionals, but I thought you’d like to know where to turn when your bad experience was with a real estate agent. Most real estate agents are Realtors —that is, they are members of the National Association of Realtors. As Realtors, we are diligent about being perceived as honorable professionals abiding by our Realtor Code of Ethics — Google it to learn its provisions — and we count on buyers and sellers as well as fellow Realtors to report wrong-doing of any kind to the appropriate authorities. In this column, I will help you know where to go. First, determine whether your agent has a managing broker to whom he reports. If his/ her business card says “broker associate” he has a “broker” above him who shares responsibility for his or her actions. In that case, the first place to go would be his or her managing broker. Because brokers share responsibility for the misdeeds of their broker associates they really do want to know of any such misdeeds and can be counted on to take discipli-
nary action of their own against a broker associate who has done you wrong. If you are still in the transaction, the broker can also remove that broker associate from your transaction and assign another broker associate — or serve you him/herself. If, however, the agent you’re complaining about is the broker, you still have one and possibly two paths open to you. If your complaint involves a violation of licensing law, you should complain to the Division of Real Estate. You can file a complaint online. The URL is too long to include here—just Google “Colorado Division of Real Estate Complaints” to find the fillable online form. If your complaint is of an ethical nature, determine whether the agent is a Realtor (a member of a Realtor association). You can determine that online at www.Colorado Realtors.com or call the Denver Metro Assn. of Realtors at 303-756-0553 and ask them to help you. If the agent is a Realtor, the same person can tell you how to file a complaint. If the agent is not a Realtor, he can’t be accused of violating the Realtor Code of Ethics (a good reason to hire only a Realtor), but you can still file a complaint with Metrolist, which has a procedure for handling complaints against non-Realtors who are members of the MLS. Call 303-850-9576.

Crime lab ready for testing Regional lab to serve several cities By Amy Woodward
awoodward@colordo communtiymedia.com Civic leaders and law enforcement officials toured the expanded and improved Jefferson County Regional Crime Lab on Oct. 22. The lab more than tripled in size, from 2,500 square feet to 16,500 square feet and will bring together forensic technicians from the county’s various municipalities who are in need of better equipment, more space, faster results — all of which will eliminate the need for going to the state for help. “As we have now finished the validation stage of the DNA lab and as we bring that stuff online, we anticipate that we will be cutting some of those time frames at about half of what we have been experiencing,” said Division Chief Jeff Shrader at the Jeffco Sheriff’s Office. “That will give us the ability to set the priorities and set the number of items of what we can test at any
given place.” The cost for the campus project was $34.8 million with an estimated $12 million of the total cost dedicated toward the crime lab and storage space, Shrader said. The lab’s high-tech equipment for DNA extraction and testing costs $750,000. “We feel that we owe it to our community and our victims to analyze evidence that comes across our individual agencies in a timely and efficient manner so that we can ensure a speedy prosecution for those that rely on forensic evidence,” said Jeffco Sheriff Ted Mink. The lab houses several exam rooms for different areas of forensic investigations including DNA testing, ballistics, fingerprinting and a chemistry lab with quality testing equipment to accommodate advancing forensic science. Cities help support the crime lab through money or through staffing — technicians employed by city law enforcement agencies who will work there. Jeffco’s trend toward regionalizing certain services is part of the county’s and surrounding cities’ efforts to work together to provide better service while saving on costs. Other regional law enforcement partnerships including a regional training academy and a West Metro Drug Task
Chris Loptien, the Jefferson County Regional Crime Lab director, handles bullet casings in the ballistics lab. Photo by Amy Woodward Force with several plans in the works for the future including regionalizing a dispatch center for police and fire services. “Without the support of city councils and managers — we wouldn’t be able to do this,” Mink said. Golden City Manager Mike Bestor attended the tour along with Golden city
council members, Marcia Claxton and Saoirse Charis-Graves. “This is going to prove to be a great investment for nailing these bad guys,” Bestor said, who supported the lab project. “All the jurisdictions here work really, really well together and that makes all the difference in the world.”

According to www.civiceconomics.com, “the math for buying close to home is compelling—for every $100 spent at a locally-owned business, $73 remains in the local economy, and $27 leaves. compare that to the same $100 spent at a non-locally owned business, where $43 remains in the local economy and $57 leaves. Recent research from civic Economics indicates that local eateries return nearly 79 percent of revenues to the community, compared to just over 30 percent for chain restaurants.”

Jeffco plays pivotal role in election County is key to results for state Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Much will be on the line when ballots are counted across the state next week, but one county in particular – and voters’ reaction to controversies involving the school board there – could determine the direction of the state’s public policy over the next two years. Election results from Jefferson County on Nov. 4 will be key in deciding not only who wins the governor and U.S. Senate races, but also which party will be in control of the state Senate when lawmakers return to the Capitol in January. The swing county is evenly-balanced in political party affiliation and returns there on Election Night are expected to result in close races in three state Senate districts. And there is a wild card in play in Jeffco that could have an impact on which party wins key races out there – the Jefferson County School Board. Recent controversies involving the conservative-led school board have made national news. And Jefferson County-based candidates say they get an earful every time they talk to voters – even if the offices they seek have nothing to do with the school board or even state politics. “You want to know what the number one discussion point is at the doorstep in Jefferson County?” said Democratic U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter during a recent interview. “The Jeffco school board. It isn’t (President) Obama, it isn’t the Middle East,
it isn’t the environment. It’s been education and, more than any other one subject, it’s been the school board.” Perlmutter is running for re-election in the 7th Congressional District, which includes Jefferson County. The congressman was asked whether voter anger over perceived overreach on the part of the school board on a number of issues could end up helping Democrats next week. “I don’t know what the impact is, but it certainly has people tuned into the election and that elections have consequences,” he said. Last year, three reform candidates easily won seats in Jeffco school board races, leading to a conservative direction in K-12 district policy. Since then, the board often has been embroiled in controversy, most recently over proposed changes to the school district’s Advanced Placement history curriculum. Even though the school board members are not up for re-election this year, Democrats think that moderate and independent voters who are angry with the school board will take out their frustration on Nov. 4 and will help the party keep three Democraticheld state Senate seats: Jeanne Nicholson’s Senate District 16; Rachel Zenzinger’s SD 19 and Andy Kerr’s SD 22. They are in three districts where there is no margin for error, much less unwanted
controversy that candidates will have to deal with. Nicholson, whose district includes Golden, won her seat by just 682 votes in 2010. In Senate District 19, which includes Arvada and Westminster, Evie Hudak won reelection in 2012 by just 584 votes. Zenzinger took over her seat last year after Hudak resigned rather than face a possible recall over controversial gun control legislation. Kerr won by the widest margin of the three in 2012, but by just four percentage points in what was a big year for Democrats in the state. Right now, Democrats hold an 18-17 advantage in the state Senate. Prior to the school board drama surfacing, Democrats were already feeling pretty good about their chances of holding on to the state Senate. That’s because Republican voters in June chose conservative candidates over their more moderate competition in district primaries. Some say the primary night returns resulted in a group of Republican challengers – Tim Neville, Tony Sanchez and Laura Woods – who are too conservative to win this coming Tuesday and that reaction to the school board controversies will only make things even more difficult for the GOP. Independent political analyst Eric Sondermann said after June primary that the GOP’s chances of taking back the state Senate bordered “impossible,” because of the primary results from Jefferson County. “My assessment has not changed, it’s only exemplified,” Sondermann said in a recent interview. Sondermann doesn’t think Republicans
stand a chance to win state Senate seats in Jeffco. For example, he called Laura Woods “a huge underdog” in her race against Zenzinger in a district that is split 50/50. Sondermann’s slim hopes for a GOP take-over of the state Senate comes even as he expects a Republican wave to hurt Democrats this year. “If (Republicans) do have a good year and they knock off the governor or a senator or both and don’t see big gains in state Legislature, they are going to look at this as an opportunity lost,” he said. But state Republican Party Chairman Ryan Call doesn’t agree with Sondermann’s assessment. He said that Sanchez and Woods are working hard on the campaign trail to win over voters in their districts. “Their hard work, coupled with our party’s excellent ground game and the desire of voters to change the direction of our state will give them the advantage they need to win on Election Day,” Call said. Call also said he’s not concerned about possible voter anger over the Jeffco school board hurting Republicans’ chances there. “The people of Jefferson County will vote for each individual candidate based on their records, on their merits and on their vision for Colorado.” School board member Lesley Dahlkemper, who is not a part of the new conservative bloc of board members, said she has heard from legislators in the district that voters often talk to them about their concerns with the school board. That’s a shame, Dalhkemper said. “It’s really put Jeffco schools on the map for all of the wrong reasons,” she said. “I think it is unfortunate to see what has evolved over the last couple of weeks.”

Quantities of quality connections There are some wonderful things about living in Colorado this time of year. For instance, no matter how contentious, ugly, or, frankly, embarrassing the political debates we’re having become (I mean, really, folks — when national media outlets are referring to your senator by a female reproductive organ ...), we can all come together around one thing: The Denver Broncos. I, like, well, everybody, was glued to the TV last Thursday night for the Broncos/49ers game. And, no matter how long he’s been at this, Peyton Manning still seems to find new ways to exploit his opponents. This week, it was Emmanuel Sanders torching the enemy for three touchdowns. And then I go, “how the heck do ‘we’ (because, y’know, I am a part of the Broncos organization) have Emmanuel Sanders?” He’s really fast, he catches everything thrown his way, and he looks, for all the world, like one of the league’s top-tier receivers. But why would someone like that come to the Broncos, knowing that we already have one of the five best receivers, one of the five best tight ends, and the greatest slot receiver the game has ever seen? But it’s not just him. The three “really big” offseason pickups were all on the defense. So, why are all these major players coming to play in Denver, when they could make the same (or maybe better) money
somewhere else? And the answer is simple: quality attracts quality. These players all know that, as long as Peyton Manning is in Denver, they have a chance to win a Super Bowl. But, more than that, I think they know that, as long as Peyton Manning is in Denver, things are going to be done the right way. And, why is Peyton Manning in Denver? Because John Elway is running things, and that means things are going to be done the right way. By the way, if you want to see the converse of this idea, just watch the Colorado Rockies’ off-season. See how much “A-list” talent they attract. The old proverb advises to “judge a man by the company he keeps.” I think the same is very true of organizations, and not just sports teams. For instance, I’ve been very impressed to witness, over the last several weeks, the quality of people who have come through the doors of our church. We attend the Arvada Covenant
Church, and we’ve been trying to hire a new worship leader, and the finalists were invited to meet the congregation, and lead us in song. And the two people who came in were most impressive! And then, just this past week, a junior member of the pastoral staff gave the Sunday sermon, and hit it out of the park. I am forced to conclude that there is something very good going on in the culture of my church (thankfully—whew!) that it has been able to attract some very strong people to be a part of the organization. It speaks well of the leadership of the senior pastor, and the governance of the board of directors. The same is true of schools, and of retirement communities, and, really, of every organization (except, maybe,Trump Industries, who simply pay through the roof for talent). So I think the lesson of the Broncos’ re-ascension to dominance is simply this: if you are in a leadership position (say, of a school district), and you want to know how you’re doing, you have no further to look than the resumes of the people applying for jobs with you. If you’re doing things the right way, great people will be knocking down your door to get in. Michael Alcorn is a teacher and writer who lives in Arvada with his wife and three children. His first novel, “The Accidental Christmas,” will be available on Nov. 2 at MichaelJAlcorn.com.

My father’s advice: in every election, vote Wake up: Parents set examples for their children about participation in politics, voting, getting involved in campaigns, etc. Lucky for me, my parents were active in Jefferson County politics beginning in the l960s. I got to meet all sorts of political people. Some I liked better than others. My dad raised funds for Republican candidates such as U.S. Congressman Don Brotzman and U.S. Sen. Pete Dominick. I remember when I was in high school hearing my father on the phone asking people for donations to campaigns. He was persuasive; people donated. In their later years my parents crossed party lines for one congressional race. They had coffees in their home for Ed Perlmutter, Democrat, a neighbor, candidate for U.S. Congress. The lesson I learned was to get involved, stay open to new people and ideas, and to choose candidates carefully, not just because the party you are affiliated with tells you to vote a straight party line.
Personally, I am registered in a party — so I can vote in the primaries. I don’t vote party line, but vote for candidates who are proven to be hard workers, honest, care about their constituency , and most importantly work well with others to get things done. I joke that the U.S Congress is gummed up by members of the “Grid” and “Lock” parties. Actually it’s not a joke. It seems like the whole Congress needs therapy and lessons in listening and reflecting. No more “You did this, your party is evil. Your party sucks!” but rather how
about, “I hear you saying such and such, is that correct?” If people feel they are heard supposedly they get along better. If listening works in a marriage, why not in U.S. Congress or local political groups? We will never all agree, but at least we could listen to each other and reflect what we hear. The atmosphere might become less charged and divided. When my friends blame one political party or the other for our country’s problems, I am turned off. I know there are good people in both parties. Sure there are some duds and knuckleheads, but polarization by party lines gets us nowhere. I am looking at my ballot with candidates for Colorado governor, a race between Bob Beauprez and John Hickenlooper. The Denver Post today says, “New Beauprez ad dives into gutter.” OK, they give good reasons for attacking the television ads. It appears the Denver Post supports John Hickenlooper, Democratic candidate for governor. But what surprised me was
the Denver Post also supports Cory Gardner, Republican candidate for senate. They say Gardner works well with others. I find this fascinating that the Denver Post is endorsing two different parties in major Colorado races. I am impressed the paper is crossing party lines. That’s what my parents did. That’s what I do when I vote. Most of all I hope more people become politically informed and vote. People abroad in the Middle East are fighting so hard to vote, to have the freedom of choice that Americans have. Send that ballot in. Vote! Mary Stobie writes regularly for Colorado Community Media.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Support for sales tax As a homeowner and business owner in Wheat Ridge for 40-plus years, I support an additional one cent on the dollar sales tax increase for the city of Wheat Ridge. The last sales tax increase was 10 years ago to add more police protection. Every citizen will benefit from improvements made to Anderson Park, to our streets, roads and from additional improvements to Interstate 70 and Youngfield enabling the city to pursue additional economical potential west of I-70. It will also fix the flood plain issues that were identified after last Septembers flooding. Some homeowners have been slapped with extremely high flood insurance premiums. Fixing Clear Creek and Lena Gulch will give them much needed relief. Anderson Park is lovely to look at but needs a facelift both to the Anderson building (roof repair for one) and the swimming pool. Anderson Park hosts thousands of people every year at soccer and baseball games, the Carnation Festival, Kite Festival and family reunions and other gatherings. Most of our tax revenue comes from people outside our community many of whom are employees. They also eat at our restaurants, shop at our stores and connect through our events and activities. They will help us realize a more vibrant, well maintained city. The more we “Buy Wheat Ridge” the more we all will benefit. Vote yes on 2A. Margie Seyfer Wheat Ridge
Re-elect Jahn
I am writing in support of the re-election of state Sen. Cher Jahn. My career of more than 30 years in the Colorado commercial construction industry has seen many ups and downs but none more
severe than the 2008 recession which decimated everyone in the industry, including contractors like myself. Many of my friends and colleagues had to close their business or struggled, like many other Coloradans, to make ends meet. Fortunately, we’ve seen strong economic growth in the last couple of years that has allowed the construction industry to hire, expand and grow within the state. We have been able to rehire many of the workers and no longer have the constant fear of reducing our work force just to keep the doors open. I would like to thank state Sen. Cheri Jahn for her work supporting businesses in Colorado. She has been an ally to the business community, and uses her experience as a small business owner to craft legislation that has brought jobs to the state. I know that one of the best ways to maintain a strong construction workforce is to find ways to improve training that leads to a well-paying career. Cheri has been an outspoken advocate for vocational education and community colleges. She passed legislation to invest an additional $100 million dollars in higher education to train employees with the skills that the Colorado construction industry needs. My business and the overall industry is always looking to hire skilled electricians, plumbers, and engineers; however, we have faced a constant shortage of employees due to a lack of vocational schools to train them. Cheri’s bipartisan leadership in the state senate has been refreshing at a time when it has been most needed. She votes on the merits, not the party line, and knows how to get things done. I encourage all voters, but especially those Republicans who don’t always see the merit of looking at the other side, to vote for Cheri Jahn. Especially now, we

Mayor for 2A
Most everyone knows the City of Wheat Ridge location is extraordinary. We have nice homes, an extensive greenbelt, parks and a population with deep roots; but, more is always necessary. Our financial foundation depends upon what is called a “grocery-store economy.” It is an income that neither fluctuates radically (people always have to eat), nor flourish due to lack of a fuller retail presence. Ballot question 2A is the opportunity to make a solid investment in the future of Wheat Ridge. It boosts core income — and gives our city a chance to shine as a prospect for new families and new business. Ballot Item 2A could generate over $6 million a year in new revenue. It would be a modest one penny sales tax on the dollar, creating an income stream usable for bonding. Bonding creates essential catch-up funds needed quickly to stop

further road and bridge deterioration — so typical of infrastructure built long ago. 2A could help us rebuild the popular Anderson Park buildings. Anderson has become “bucket city” as patching no longer solves years of roof leaks. A Yes on 2A could enable funds to smooth traffic at 32nd and Youngsfield, providing better access for development of commercial land west of the intersection. A Yes on 2A could provide drainage solutions to Wheat Ridge homes recently placed in Federally adjusted flood plains — making homeowner insurance costs unbearable. Will we be competitive with other cities? Yes. Low property tax places us in a very low and enviable comparison (only $35 per year per household for property tax). Further, we will be competitive because our sales tax receipt carries no other additional, unexpected taxes often called “PIF” for public improvement fees. Bottom line, we need a yes on 2A. It is a clear and straight forward investment in the future. Joyce Jay Wheat Ridge Mayor

For Udall, there’s plenty in a name Family has history of political success in the West By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Udall family has been called the “Kennedys of the West” for their longtime sustaining of a political dynasty that has won office in six Western states. Right now, there are two Udalls in the U.S. Senate: Tom Udall of New Mexico and his cousin, Mark — who is currently in the political fight of his life right here in Colorado. Udall, a Democrat, is running his first reelection campaign since winning his Senate seat in 2008 — and it’s been a tough one against Republican Congressman Cory Gardner. The two are locked in a tight contest that has been one of the most closely watched Senate races in the country — and it’s been one that has been bruising, with no shortage of attacks between the two. “His incapacity to clearly explain where he is (on the issues) I think suggests to me and many Coloradans that there are questions about what his core is. What does he believe?” Udall said of Gardner during a recent oneon-one interview with Colorado Community Media, from inside his campaign office in Uptown Denver.
Udall has questioned Gardner’s “core” on women’s issues, in particular. Throughout the campaign, Udall has attacked Gardner, who is pro-life, as being extreme and, at best, shifty in his views on a controversial “personhood” effort that would essentially ban abortions. Gardner said he opposes a personhood amendment that is on this year’s ballot, but his name still appears on a federal anti-abortion bill. Gardner has said the latter is a show of support for his pro-life beliefs. But, in an effort to woo women voters, Udall and Democratic groups have spent millions of dollars this campaign attacking Gardner for his views on abortion and contraceptives, following a similar script written by the campaign of Democrat Michael Bennet, who won a tight Senate race four years ago. But has that effort jumped the shark? The Denver Post last week endorsed Gardner for Senate, calling Udall’s strategy to attract women voters as “an obnoxious, one-issue campaign.” The Colorado Springs Gazette said in a recent editorial that Udall’s “reproductive rights” strategy is backfiring. But Udall stresses that Roe v. Wade “is still in the balance” and that “the Supreme Court may very well be in the balance,” so it is important for voters to know where the congressman stands. “Some people feel that this is overwhelming, but this is a serious issue that creates a
Udall contrast between Congressman Gardner and me,” Udall said. While Udall has attacked Gardner on women’s issues, Gardner has spent just as much time trying to link Udall to President Barack Obama. Udall was mocked by Republicans for his remarks during a Grand Junction debate in September, where he said, “Let me tell you, the White House, the last person they want to see coming is me.” And he was criticized for not showing up for his own fundraiser
that Obama headlined over the summer. The senator insists he was tied up with important votes in Washington, D.C. Obama’s low approval numbers have caused Democrats like Udall to straddle a political tight rope this campaign — keeping the president at arm’s length while making sure they don’t come across as disloyal. But Udall has backed his support for the Affordable Care Act, Obama’s signature legislative achievement, often highlighting the popular components of the law while acknowledging that it still needs work. He has also been critical of Gardner for his focus on repealing Obamacare, without giving voters any indication of what he would replace it with. “He wants to make this about President Obama,” Udall said. “I’ve made it about my record versus his record. I’ve made it about what I’ve accomplished for the people of Colorado and where I think he’s fallen short.” Udall also believes he has the upper hand on energy issues and gay marriage, areas where Democrats have tried to paint Gardner as being outside the mainstream. While Gardner has struggled to articulate to what extent humans are contributing to climate change, Udall has long-believed that there needs to be environmental protections Udall continues on Page 12

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Boasting that anything Colorado is better than what New York offers is a favorite pastime for Republicans who like sticking it to “East Coast liberals.” But pizza, too? “The best pizza on earth is in downtown Yuma, Colorado,” gushed Republican Con-
gressman Cory Gardner during a recent sitdown interview from inside his Greenwood Village campaign office. Really? “It’s a place called the Paper Moon,” he said. “I’m a firm believer. And I think it’s April when they have their asparagus pizza. It’s like out of this world. They don’t have it now, but it’s awesome.” Gardner doesn’t need any arm-twisting to talk about his hometown — as evidenced by the Yuma history lesson he provided while pointing to areas of interest on a Colorado map at the conclusion of the interview.

But Gardner’s challenge in November is to win a political office that covers more than Yuma and the rest of the conservative 4th Congressional District he has represented since winning the seat in 2010. He is seeking to become the state’s next senator and to do so, he must take down the incumbent Democrat, Sen. Mark Udall. Many politicians would love to bottle Gardner’s energy and enthusiasm on the campaign trail. And he is widely considered a rising star in the GOP, which needs all the rising stars it can get in a swing state like Colorado. But Gardner has liabilities, Democrats believe, and the Udall campaign and outside groups have spent the entire campaign high-
lighting Gardner’s challenges in answering questions about issues that include women’s reproductive rights, immigration and climate change. Gardner says he opposes a state ballot “personhood” measure that would essentially ban abortions, but his name still appears on a federal anti-abortion effort. It’s an issue that Gardner has had to fight back against for several months as millions of dollars in television ad money has been spent by his opponents in an effort to define him. On immigration, Gardner is against provisions that would allow a path to citizenship for undocumented workers. Still, in August, Gardner voted against his own party on a bill that sought to end an Obama Administration program that shields young undocumented immigrants from deportation. Udall has said that Gardner “hasn’t lifted a finger” to get immigration reform moving and neither have his House Republican colleagues. Gardner says Democrats are the ones holding back true immigration reform. And, on issues concerning the environment, Gardner has struggled to answer questions over the role humans have had in affecting climate change. During an Oct. 6 Denver Post-sponsored debate, Gardner was asked “do you believe humans are contributing significantly to climate change?” Gardner said he’s believed “all along” that climate change is real. But when pressed to answer the yes or no question, Gardner continues on Page 12

State tightens rules for pot businesses Normalizing doses of edibles is among new regulations By Katie Kuntz
Rocky Mountain PBS I-News Medical and retail marijuana dispensaries are getting about 30 new rules related to almost every aspect of their businesses. The state Marijuana Enforcement Division released the new rules Sept. 24. They change everyReport thing from the start-up licensing fees to rules for cultivation, production, edibles, sales, employee training and product testing. The rules go all the way down to a handwashing requirement. State officials have contended that Colorado’s new recreational marijuana industry is a work in progress, and these new standards underscore that fact. “I think the new rules make a lot of sense,” said Mark Slaugh, CEO of iComply, a cannabis industry compliance and consulting firm. “We’re putting out consumer education and teaching business owners and workers how to be responsible vendors. From a business decision, it’s a nobrainer.”

in place when it comes to energy production. Udall supports new Obama Administration regulation proposals aimed at curbing greenhouse gas emissions. Udall said Colorado is already well on its way toward meeting the new regulations, having converted Front Range-located coalfired power plants to natural gas plants and
Gardner Continued from Page 10
Gardner pushed back, saying, “This is an important issue and I don’t think you can say yes or no.” During the interview with Colorado Community Media, Gardner again said that he believes the climate is changing and then pivoted to his disagreements with Udall on energy issues. When asked to what extent humans are contributing to climate change, Gardner refused to answer the question directly and said the onus is on scientists to answer that question. “Again, I think there’s scientists who may differ on that,” he said. “Again, go to
Among the new rules is a revision of a proposal that caused an uproar at a hearing earlier in September: production caps on greenhouse or outdoor grows. The proposed rule would have allowed greenhouses to produce only half the amount of plants allowed at indoor or warehouse operations. The new rules do not make that distinction and allow the same number of plants, 3,600, for the firstlevel cultivation process. “I think that the state really listened to the greenhouse workers and was responsive to the impassioned testimony,” said Meg Collins, executive director of the Cannabis Business Association, and one member of the work group committee writing the production rules. In the new rules, the enforcement division also established minimum “responsible vendor training” requirements along with minimum public health and safety requirements for anyone manufacturing edible marijuana products. The state has issued 18,666 marijuana occupational licenses. Each individual with a license will be required to meet new minimum training standards if hired by a shop, cultivation center, testing facility or product manufacturer. There are 496 licensed medical shops and 242 recreational stores in Colorado. The state has received 177 additional applications for recreational stores and grow operations that could be approved by October 1. “I believe it’s our responsibility to be as safe as we can be and make sure every
bud tender and customer knows what to expect,” said Brian Ruden, a retail and medical marijuana store owner in Denver, Louisville and Colorado Springs. “It’s just better for the industry to err on the side of caution when the whole country, everyone is looking at the industry now.” Aside from safety and health training, new rules will also normalize the amount of marijuana found in any edible — ensuring that a single serving size has no more than 10 milligrams of active THC, the intoxicating chemical in marijuana. “So that could be something as small as a peanut butter cup or bonbon or as large as a soda,” said iComply’s Slaugh. “If there is more than one serving in the product, it has to be easily identified.” The serving size rule is meant to ensure a more safe consumption of edible marijuana. Edibles have a greater risk for over-consumption because the digestion of marijuana causes a later onset of the effects. Some people respond by eating more. Testing requirements have also changed. The Marijuana Enforcement Division will not only require testing for potency in edibles, but also for chemicals like pesticides and for the presence of fungi. “I already spend a small fortune every month testing and that is only going up because of all the other things they are testing,” Ruden said. “I’m excited for more responsible regulation, but frustrated with the expenses, the licensing fees, taxes and testing.”
Others expressed concern about what the new rules don’t include. Marijuana testing facilities will only test product from licensed cultivation centers, not home growers or medical marijuana caregivers. “We’re still not able to know how to dose,” said Ashley Weber, medical marijuana patient and caregiver advocate. “From a caregiver’s side, not being able to test means you don’t know what you’re giving your patient and you are never going to be able to be on a consistent level.” Parents whose children have epilepsy that is treated with medical marijuana won’t know if they are overmedicating those children, she added. The enforcement division has not yet considered expanding testing services to caregivers. Others were concerned that the mass of new regulations might mean more costs, and continuing competition from the black market. “The more rules you have, the more challenging it is, because we are driving up the price,” Slaugh said. “We can offer a consistent, safe product and a wider variety and you don’t have to deal with a drug dealer. I think the legitimate market will always drive away the black market — except for the price.” Colorado Community Media brings you this report in partnership with Rocky Mountain PBS I-News.

having significantly reduced carbon dioxide emissions. Those opposed to the new rules say energy rates would rise and coal economies would suffer. “As economies and technologies change, there’s disruption, but I still feel we’re going to need coal,” Udall said. “It’s an important part of the mix, so let’s figure out a way to burn it more cleanly.” With gay marriage now a reality in Colorado, Udall highlights his support for marriage equality. “I do connect my commitment to pushing
forward for more inclusion — not tolerance, more inclusion — and the same civil rights for everybody in part because of my Mormon heritage, which may seem strange,” Udall said of how his background has allowed him to come around in support of gay marriage. The senator has acknowledged that he struggled over the issue for some time. “Around our dinner table, we would hear stories about how the Mormons were persecuted, literally driven across the country; in some cases, hung and murdered because of their religious beliefs.” Udall’s father — an Arizona congressman
who once ran for president — was a revered figure in politics on both sides of the aisle. Arizona Sen. John McCain, a Republican, has refused to campaign against Udall out of his loyalty to his long-time friendship with Mo Udall. Mo Udall died in 1998, but his son remembers the values that guided his father, such as being able to “disagree without being disagreeable.” “My dad, he loved being dedicated to a cause greater than his own self-interest,” he said. “It was rewarding to him in all the right ways.”
the scientists and ask them.” But Gardner believes that the Democratic playbook of painting conservatives as extremists on certain issues is no longer working, especially on women’s issues. Although Gardner is pro-life, he has touted a policy that would allow women to get contraceptives over the counter, without a prescription. Gardner said Udall is a “social issues warrior” who only talks about women’s issues because it was successful in Sen. Michael Bennet’s 2010 campaign and because Udall can’t talk about the economy, energy or the Affordable Care Act because they are not winning issues for him. “He has to run away from all of those (policy positions), so the only thing he can talk about is to try to use a playbook that was used four years ago,” Gardner
said. “The people of Colorado have seen through it. They’re tired of it.” Gardner has spent much of his campaign attacking Udall for having supported President Barack Obama’s policies “99 percent of the time.” He has long-called for the repeal of Obamacare and has tried to anchor Udall to Obama, whose low approval ratings have posed a challenge for Democratic office seekers. Udall, who voted for Obamacare, has hammered at Gardner for failing to offer solutions on health care and has said that Gardner only cares about repealing the law, while offering no alternative. Gardner touts his backing of a measure that bans health insurance companies from rejecting coverage for those with preexisting conditions — a key component
of Obamacare — but says, “It didn’t take a 2,700-page partisan bill to do that.” He also said that tort reform would help curb health insurance costs and said that Congress can find a solution to make sure that those who have since qualified for Medicaid under Obamacare will still be covered once the health care act is repealed. “Over half of Coloradans oppose Obamacare,” he said. “I think it is something that will continue to be part of this campaign.” Through the rough-and-tumble of this campaign, Gardner continues to come across as affable. And regardless of how voters respond, the town of Yuma has his back. “I live in a town where the high school is doing a cheer, ‘Vote for Cory,’ ” he said. “So, it’s a very supportive community.”

growth, and we’re seeing that we’re becoming a major metropolitan area — and companies are recognizing that and wanting to set up shop here or they want to expand out here for existing business that we do have,” said Tom Livingston, economic development specialist with Jeffco EDC. “We want to make sure that we are able to accommodate that growth and there is a lot that goes with that as far as the residential aspect.” Balancing land use with continued growth will be a challenge in Jeffco where preserving open space is an important aspect and cultural identifier of the county,

County Commissioner Casey Tighe said. “We just have to be smart about how we grow,” Tighe said. Urban centers that offer walkability and bike-friendly access in close proximity to mass transit seem to be the future for urban planning to attract millennials and businesses to the area. “You’re starting to see that happening, and we’re going to have to see about other locations,” he said, noting cities like Arvada and Lakewood that are building urban centers around train stations along the W Line light rail. The days of building homes with large
backyards are fading away, Tighe said, so it is important to preserve the county’s aging stock to also reinvigorate neighborhoods. “We still want to give people these options to fit their lifestyles,” he said. In addition to challenges associated with land use, managing water resources and keeping the air clean will also be part of the balancing act for Jeffco businesses and political leaders. “We’re going to continue to grow whether we like it or not,” Clark said. “You need to be spending money to take good care of those assets that you don’t get back if you screw them up.”

The Edge produces Sam Shepard drama By Clarke Reader
creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com Scary comes in all shapes and sizes — sometimes it’s the sensation of being watched and other times it comes from the realization that things aren’t what they seem. Sam Shepard’s 1979 Pulitzer Prize-winning family drama “Buried Child” dives behind the façade of a seemingly perfect WHAT: “Buried Child” family to WHERE: The Edge Theater plumb 1560 Teller St., Lakewood the WHEN: through Nov. 16 depths Friday and Saturday - 8 p.m. of Sunday - 6 p.m. depravCOST: $22-$26 ity that INFORMATION: 303-232-0363 or could be www.theedgetheater.com behind any locked door. “Buried Child” plays at the Edge Theater, 1560 Teller St. in Lakewood, through Nov. 16. Show times are at 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and 6 p.m. on Sunday. “I approach the show as seven orbs that keep colliding with each other,” said director Rick Bernstein. “The play is about love lost and passion lost for this one family.” When Vince (Royce Wood) and his girlfriend Shelly (Missy Moore) come home to meet his family, Shelly is initially taken by a group of people she describes as something right out of a Norman Rockwell painting. That image is quickly shattered when she meets grandparents Dodge (Dan Mundell) and Halie (Emma Messenger) — a pair of violent, alcoholics who are just the tip of the iceberg. Their
IF YOU GO
sons — Tilden (Robert Kramer) and Bradley (Brian Landis Folkins) — have their own demons. Tilden is developmentally challenged, and Bradley lost a leg to a chainsaw. What follows is an exploration of secrets at the way they rot the core of every person. The show also features Tim Fishbaugh as Father Dweis. “I see the play as one full of contradictions,” said Mundell. “The characters are constantly uttering lies and contradictions and all these little things create a sense of insecurity, not only for the other characters, but in the audience as well.” While the ending shows at least a glimmer of redemption, Mundell still describes the play as a macabre comedy that examines the changes in the American family. “I think the family is representative of American society becoming so autonomous and ceasing to communicate,” Bernstein said. “Instead they communicate by assumption.” For many people laughing — especially during inappropriate times — is the way to cope with uncomfortable situations, and both Bernstein and Mundell have heard a lot of that from audiences during performances. “I think Shepard takes audiences to the far reaches of the darker side of personalities and you might think people aren’t like this,” Mundell said. “But during any day I know I have some vicious thoughts in my mind, just like everyone else.” “Buried Child” is Bernstein’s first time directing at The Edge and he only uses superlatives in the experience, especially working with the cast on their admittedly unlikeable characters. “I told the actors not to talk to each other about their characters,” he said. “So much of the show is private and about secrets and I wanted them to maintain that.” The viewing experience is one audiences can expect to hold onto long after the show is over. “It’s a brilliant piece of theater and I think speaks to some issues in a very macabre, non-linear way,” Bernstein said. “You’ll leave the theater and keep thinking about it.” For more information call 303-232-0363 or visit www.theedgetheater.com.
The Taylor Estate, the highest-priced home in the Denver metro area, is up for sale for $27.7 million in Lakewood. The 1932-built gated spread on the shores of Ward Lake was designed by renowned Denver architect Burnham F. Hoyt, who also designed Red Rocks Amphitheatre as well as landmarks such as the Denver Central Public Library and Colorado Capitol Annex Building. According to reports, Hoyt once regarded this residence as the most beautiful home in America. This 14-000-square-foot, 26-room manor house features a paneled library, banquet-size dining room, dual master suites with nine additional bedroom suites, 12 fireplaces and a staff wing. The 122 acres include mountain views, century-old trees, a lake with a beach and boating privileges, a pool, tennis court, three staff cottages, stables, water rights and agricultural status. Guests at this storied estate have included Denver high society, British royalty and assorted dignitaries. Prince Philip and Princess Anne of Great Britain chose to stay there as guests of the Taylors. This property also includes a heated pool, tennis court, outdoor patios, a flower-cutting garden, dressage ring and stables. To see the listing, go to http://goo.gl/ IwUXMw.
2015 Restaurant Week set
The oh-so-popular Denver Restaurant Week (DRW), presented by Lexus and organized by Visit Denver, will revert to a single 10-day event in 2015, running Feb. 20 to March 1. “We talked to restaurant owners, restaurant employees, diners, sponsors and restaurant week fans, and the consensus was that seven days of DRW was too short, but 14 consecutive days was too long,” said Justin Bresler, vice president of marketing for Visit Denver. “The perfect `best of both worlds’ compromise appears to be to run it for 10 days, encompassing two complete weekends in the traditional slow period of February.” For Denver Restaurant Week’s 10th anniversary this year, at the request of participating restaurants, DRW was split into two separate weeklong events, one in February and one in late August. “While summer restaurant week was popular with both restaurants and diners, the challenge going forward was to find a week that wasn’t already occupied by an existing event, holiday or a week that didn’t have a major convention,” Bresler said. Late summer and fall are Denver’s busiest convention months. “We really don’t want to bring 10,000 convention delegates to Denver and have them find that every restaurant is booked with DRW reservations,” Bresler said, adding that the restaurants also don’t want to be offering special DRW pricing at a time when there are thousands of hungry convention delegates in town. “In the end, we couldn’t find workable dates for the summer event, and the consensus of opinion was to concentrate on the traditional February time frame,” Bresler said. More than 300 restaurants participated in the 2014 winter DRW and more than 200 in the summer DRW, making this one

Grandma Dee purchased gourds with her grandchildren and they discussed the many different shapes and sizes. What animals could these gourds become? Some had long necks like swans. A few were small round gourds perfect for hedgehogs, porcupines, little pigs, owls, and small turtles with play dough feet. Long necked gourds could be swans and geese.

Von’s Vision raises $150K-plus
Painting gourds
you’re in a hurry, dried gourds are available at craft stores and are easy to paint. Grandma and the grandkids only wanted them to last for two weeks. While the gourds dried they discussed different facial expressions that could be painted on the pumpkins and gourds. They looked in the mirror and made faces. Then to practice they drew the expressions on paper. Some of the grandchildren decided to use marker or paint to make fancy designs of triangles, swirls, curls, and squiggles with faces.
More than $150,000 was raised for Von’s Vision, Broncos all-pro linebacker Von Miller’s foundation, at the second annual Celebrity Steak Out recently at Ocean Prime. The event featured Miller and several of his Broncos teammates trading in their uniforms for aprons to serve 187 guests a three-course meal. The star-studded evening featured silent and live auctions, and guests were able to chat and take photos with Peyton Manning, Julius Thomas, Wes Welker, Lamin Barrow, Demaryius Thomas, DeMarcus Ware, Omar Bolden, David Bruton, Andre Caldwell, Tony Carter, Ben Garland, Malik Jackson, Steven Johnson, Terrance Knighton, Lerentee McCray, Brandon McManus, Will Montgomery, Rahim Moore, Corey Nelson, Brock Osweiler, Aqib Talib, Jacob Tamme, , Danny Trevathan, Mitch Unrein, Kayvon Webster and Kenny Anunike. Miller founded Von’s Vision in 2013 to
provide Denver-area youth with eye examinations and eyewear to succeed in the classroom and in life. For more information, visit www.vonmiller.org.
Completely painted gourds must go through a special drying process or paint will bubble and peel and the gourd will mold. To paint only a face or design, wash them first with soap and water. Rub the skin with full strength vinegar or mild bleach, and allow to dry thoroughly under a warm light. As a precaution place the gourds in a plastic bag over night. In the morning check for moisture in the bag. If there is none, it is fine to paint. If there is moisture, place the gourds under a light again. If

Water year it was in Colorado Southeastern part of state gets some relief from drought By Jim Trotter
Rocky Mountain PBS I-News The 2014 water year ended gently — for Colorado, at least — as monsoonal rains and the remnants of Hurricane Odile provided enough moisture to push even the drought-stricken southeastern quadrant of the state into the 70 percent to 90 percent of normal precipitation range. It’s reasonable to think of it almost as an escape, as the state was cool and wet enough to avoid the massive wildfires of the previous two years, Black Forest in 2013 and Waldo Canyon and High Park in 2012, which claimed a total of more than 1,100 homes. There was no epic September flood this time around. In comparison to California, which continues in the throes of devastating drought, and parts of Washington and Oregon, where millions of acres burned this water year, Colorado was downright fortunate. “Water year” is a Western term, and the new one began Oct. 1. It has to do with the annual cycle that includes the first snow in the high country, the accumulation of the snowpack, the spring melt and runoff, the warm summer and whatever rain might fall. One can forgive residents of southeastern Colorado if they’re not breaking out the party hats. While the late rains boosted moisture totals there toward respectability, the region has been locked in various stages of damaging drought for years. The U.S. Drought Monitor map, a product of the Department of Agriculture that is updated weekly, has five levels of dryness, from D0, abnormally dry, to D4, exceptional drought. Along with the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles, a big chunk of northeastern New Mexico and southwestern Kansas, southeastern Colorado has been firmly fixed with D3s, extreme drought, and D4s, as bad as it gets. The modern map, in fact, has looked very similar to that of the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, even though, as of now, it has moderated a bit. “Absolutely,” said assistant state climatologist Wendy Ryan from her office in Fort Collins. “As we were keeping track, particularly in 2011 and 2012, we started drawing comparisons to the ‘30s. It was as dry and as hot down there as the Dust Bowl.” The visual elements were also there: enormous dust storms, but not with the frequency or longevity of the 1930s, and tumbleweed melees that covered highways and buried barns and houses. “They have created havoc on the plains of eastern Colorado,” said Tobe Allumbaugh, chairman of the Crowley County Commission, of the tumbleweed conditions that began this time last year. “After three years of drought, we got moisture in the latter part of August. There was no vegetation to compete with the Russian thistle. They popped out and they were everywhere. We got more rain in September and it was like throwing fuel on the fire. “By November they began to roll and tumble.” That is a challenge that likely remains
from the summer rains this year. “After the last few years, a lot of the native grasses are gone,” said Ryan. “The Russian thistle is the first plant to come back with any moisture and we saw what happened last year. They had to use snowplows to clear the highways. It’s probably going to be bad again, but maybe not quite as bad. The hope is that the grasses got enough precipitation to compete (with the thistles).” The lower Arkansas River basin has a long way to go before recovery to normal, Ryan said. The late season moisture has allowed farmers there to get a start on winter wheat, an endeavor that hasn’t panned out in the recent drought years. The big word is evapotranspiration, which is the soil losing moisture with no rain, and through plant transpiration, or “plant sweat.” That is pretty much what happened in the Dust Bowl. Native grasses were plowed under in order to plant wheat, the bottom fell out of the wheat market, and with drought and heat and wind, evapotranspiration took care of the rest. The Four Corners were also dry this water year, as was the San Juan River basin, and the Rio Grande has been droughtplagued — which pretty much accounts for the southern tier of Colorado. In the northern half of the state, the picture for this closing water year has been dramatically different. The upper Colorado River basin has been flush, and beginning after last September’s massive floods, conditions along the South Platte basin have been extraordinary. Winter wheat yields on the northeastern plains were bountiful, conditions there “beautiful,” as Ryan described them. A look at the “teacup” map published weekly by the Colorado Climate Center at Colorado State University also tells the story. Lake Granby is 128 percent of average for this time of year, 98 percent full. Blue Mesa is 74 percent full, Lake Dillon is 99 percent full. Green Mountain is at 85 percent. All of this munificence is a matter of scale, of course. Downstream on the Colorado River, massive Lake Powell was only 51 percent full recently, and, on the other end of the Grand Canyon, giant Lake Mead has been losing water after years of drought like someone pulled the plug. Unrelated to the Colorado River but very related to water in the West is the map published last week by the California Department of Water Resources depicting water levels in the Golden State’s major reservoirs, which ranged from 12 percent to 39 percent full. There was actually what some climate observers are calling a drought-induced mudslide on volcanic Mount Shasta in northern California. Depending on which news story one went with, it was caused by the fracturing of one of the 14,162-foot mountain’s glaciers, or the slippage of a glacier that allowed water trapped underneath to escape and tumble downhill, gathering mud and debris.

alloween is as much about candy as it is about dressing up in fun costumes and engaging in scare tactics. Humans have loved their sweets for centuries. Early human beings made candy out of honey by drying it and forming a taffy-like confection, while many modern incarnations of candy involve dissolving sugar into water or milk to form a syrup. Candy is then made by varying the temperature of the syrup and the sugar concentration to achieve desired textures. The word “candy” is derived from the Arabic “quandi,” meaning “made of sugar.” Candy also often refers to chocolate bars and other treats that people find so delectable. Ancient Mayans and Aztecs were the first to experiment with the cocoa bean, the cornerstone
October 30, 2014
of chocolate confections, in the 1500s. However, their chocolate drinks were bitter and not the sweet delights we’ve come to associate with chocolate. It wasn’t until the 19th century that innovators began mixing cocoa with sugar to create chocolate bars. Joseph Fry is credited with making the first chocolate bar in 1847, using bittersweet chocolate. Milk chocolate came later, in 1875, when it was introduced by Henry Nestlé and Daniel Peter. Milton Hershey began producing sweet chocolate in 1894. Hershey bars, Nestlé bars and many other original candies are still in production today. Tootsie Rolls and Charleston Chews are other classic candies still produced. Good & Plenty debuted in 1893, making it the oldest branded candy in America. NECCO company Wafers were officially branded in 1901 and are another classic treat consumers can still find in the candy aisle of their nearest grocery store.
Smarties is another candy that’s bound to show up in trick-or-treat bags this Halloween. Smarties have been owned and operated by the same family since 1949. The Ce De Candy Inc. factory opened up in August 1949 in Bloomfield, NJ, and produced a candy that would not melt in the heat. Smarties are a favorite all over North America and elsewhere. When demand is too high for the NJ factory, particularly around Halloween, Smarties are also produced in a Canadian factory in Newmarket, Ontario. Smarties imported to the United States are still called Smarties. However, Smarties sold in Canada are known as “Rockets,” as another candy sold in Canada already bears the Smarties name. Halloween wouldn’t be nearly as sweet without troves of candy treasures.

NOV. 1 &2 High school hosts national leadership event SAT 9-5 & SUN 10 By Crystal Anderson
canderson@coloradocommunitymedia.com More than 600 Colorado students found a ticket to success in two days. Fueled by the theme “The Golden Ticket to Leadership,” the 2014 Colorado High School Activities Association (CHSSA) Fall Conference welcomed 600 student leaders from across Colorado to Golden, Oct. 24-25. “We have a new facility that’s a little bit over five years old, so really it’s a great place to host a conference,” said Andrew Wise, senior class president at Golden High School. “It’s the whole swap-shop idea, coming together and getting different perspectives.” Held at Golden High School, 701 24th St., the event focused on helping students learn key characteristics to help them lead activities, organize fundraisers, host events such as prom, work with media and student bodies in their respective schools. “One of our goals was to take those big things and to be really good at the big things, to look at the big picture yet think outside the box,” said Lisa Deal, teacher adviser for the event and Golden’s student council. “What can we do that’s outside the box, and that’s part of our theme “the Golden Ticket” you take that theme and you think

Working up to a gallop “Falling from Horses” by Molly Gloss
2014, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt $25 / $32 Canada 336 pages Be careful what you wish for.
No doubt, you’ve been told that before. What you want and what you need are often two different things, and desires can be dangerous. The wrong wish acquired could lead to disaster. Or, as in the new novel “Falling from Horses” by Molly Gloss, it could also be a means of escape. For Bud Frazer, Hollywood was almost a last-minute thought. Oh, the notion to go there had fleetingly occurred to him a time or two while watching westerns at the local theatre. After awhile, he reasoned that if movie cowboys could get paid for riding, then so could he; riding was something he knew well. Winning second-prize rodeo money only sealed the idea. It was 1938, and Bud’s parents worked on somebody else’s Oregon ranch, after having lost their own. Bud was eighteen, and Hollywood sounded good; he couldn’t bear to go with his folks, away from the land he considered home. There was just no point. After his sister died, there was nothing left to say. And as the bus crossed into California from Oregon , Bud met Lily Shaw. She wasn’t much to look at; she was older than Bud, but he decided he liked her anyhow. She was bold; said she was headed to Hollywood to be a screenwriter, and she seemed to know what she was talking about. Once they hit town, she even pointed him toward a place to stay. She couldn’t help with work, but Bud managed that. He spent a couple months wrangling on a ranch that provided horses for movie companies, then a ramrod gave him decent money for stunt riding. He worked a few movies, collected a few scars, and learned enough about the industry to sour him. Ev-

ery now and then, he called his parents, and he thought about Lily Shaw. She was irritating, driven, and courageous, always acting like she was smarter. She liked to pretend that she had things to teach him. It took years for Bud to learn… I had a bit of a hard time with “Falling from Horses” at first. It’s slow, and moseys a little too much; in fact, I almost quit it twice. But then, after 30 pages or so, I gasped at one of author Molly Gloss’s small plotlines. My “awwww” response was on high, and I realized that I was completely wrapped up in what’s ultimately a quiet novel of friendship and haunting memories. The kicker is in the way that Gloss ekes out her backstory. Through that, we get to know characters that are integral to the tale but that barely make an appearance in it. Those glimpses were my favorite part here because they act to smooth out the edges of the rest of the novel. And no, I can’t tell you more. Again, this book starts slow but stick with it. It’s worth it in the end, especially if you like old movies, old cowboys, or gentle tales. For you, “Falling from Horses” could be all you wish for.

Big money takes aim at GMO label proposal By Katie Kuntz
Rocky Mountain PBS I-News Colorado voters continue to be pounded by multimillion-dollar political advertising campaigns, often with the two candidates or issue opponents fairly evenly matched, with no respite in sight until Election Day. But on one particular issue the campaign ads are entirely lopsided. Labeling genetically modified food, commonly called GMOs — meaning “genetically modified organisms” — is on the ballot, and has become a nearly $12 million issue. But the “No on Proposition 105 Coalition” has spent $6.8 million more than the “Right to Know Colorado” labeling advocates, and the anti-105 forces still have $4.1 million waiting to be spent. “I can’t understand, why would they put $11 million into a Colorado campaign that has less than $500,000?” asked Larry Cooper, director of the “Right to Know” campaign. “What are they trying to hide?” Sara Froelich, a campaign spokesperson for the No on 105 Coalition, said in an email, “No one should be surprised that agriculture and food companies are stepping forward to support their customers across Colorado who will be harmed by this measure.” The agriculture and food companies against 105 include well-known names like Monsanto, Kraft Foods and PepsiCo. These three companies alone have contributed $7.4 million of the $11 million raised by this campaign. The labeling advocates, however, have raised only $441,000, and have not purchased any television or radio advertising to advocate their position. The group is operating a grassroots campaign, knocking on doors and using social media to advance their cause. This could mean that Coloradans who receive their information solely from TV

Centennial
ad campaigns think Colorado farmers do not support the labeling initiative — but that is only partly true. The Colorado Farm Bureau has donated more than $7,000 to defeat the measure, but the Rocky Mountain Farmers Union, with more than 22,000 members in Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico, actually endorsed the pro-labeling campaign. “GMO labeling is one of the things that we support,” said Bill Midcap, director of external affairs of Rocky Mountain Farmers Union. “But we know it’s going to be tough for a single state to enact.” This year, Colorado and Oregon are the only two states with GMO labeling on the ballot, and many of the same corporations are also spending millions in Oregon to defeat the initiative there. Maine, Vermont and Connecticut are the only states to have passed labeling requirements, but they will not be enacted until 2016 — or until a population of at least 20 million people in neighboring states require the labeling, too. “How would you expect General Mills to label something special just for one state, just for Colorado?” Midcap said. “Think about Kellogg or Coca-Cola. Are they willing to change just for Colorado? Maybe if 15 states did it — but this would be more effective as a national issue.” In Colorado, a Citizens Initiative Review board evaluated the labeling measure and decided by an 11-to-9 vote to approve it. Those who voted against the measure, like Bill Wright, explained that his greatest concern was that many foods may be exempt from the labeling measure. “Normally when you go into a store and read labels, you rely on the information and people want to rely on what they are being told,” Wright said. “It’s probably a lot of food (that would be exempt) and that’s going to be a lot more confusing than if you just don’t do it at all.” The measure would take effect in 2016, if passed.

Wheat Ridge routs Golden rivalry game Farmers prepare for playoffs by stalling out Demon offense By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com LAKEWOOD - Golden’s football program has had a nice comeback this season. But Wheat Ridge football is still the standard in 4A Jeffco. And the Farmers brought their talent and experience to bear against the Demons in a 43-6 victory Friday at Jeffco Stadium.
But Friday night’s game was more than just your normal Wheat RidgeGolden rivalry game, as the two schools came together with Lutheran Hospital to promote the first annual “Pink” football game. The game honored breast cancer victims and survivors and despite Golden coming up a little short on the scoreboard the event was a huge success as the student sections from both schools were draped in pink. “Lutheran is in our neighborhood and they asked us if we would be interested in this kind of event and I told them we would love to do that,” Wheat Ridge ath-
letic director Nick DeSimone said. “Both schools coming together for something like this takes the edge of the competition and focuses on our community.” Perhaps the start of what looks to be an annual tradition will renew a once strong rivalry that Wheat Ridge had dominated over the last decade — including on Friday night. The Farmers jumped out to a big first quarter lead and took a 36-0 lead into halftime. Wheat Ridge road its horse in senior running back Jordan Jones who was dominant, rushing for 130 yards on just 12 carries and producing three
touchdown runs. In addition, senior defensive back Anthony Mcginnis was the defensive player of the game after he intercepted two and deflected three more. And with just one regular season game left on its schedule Wheat Ridge improved to 6-3 (3-1 in league) under the leadership of first year head coach Dan Reardon. The Farmers will wrap up their regular season when they play Denver South Friday at 4 p.m. at All City Field. Golden (3-6, 1-3 in league) will play George Washington Friday, 7 p.m. at All City Field.
Ponderosa soccer ends Wheat Ridge season Farmers already looking forward to next year By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com PARKER - Just when it was starting to look like Wheat Ridge was producing an upset in the making their fortunes once again quickly changed. And in the matter of just a few minutes the No. 27 Farmers gave up a pair of goals to No. 6 Ponderosa who advanced with a 2-0 victory in the first round of the 4A state soccer playoffs Wednesday at Sports Authority Stadium. And once again Wheat Ridge was tough luck losers in a game where they were in position to win. The Farmers had held their opponents to a 0-0 tie with only 15 minutes left in regulation when Ponderosa scored two goals. Ponderosa senior David Patterson beat Wheat Ridge goaltender Chase O’Dean for what proved to be the gamewinning goal. And a few minutes later freshman Co-
lin Hester gave the Mustangs a 2-0 lead. And just like that Wheat Ridge went from on the verge of a huge playoff upset to seeing its season ended. But tough luck isn’t something new to the Farmers this season. Actually it will go down as the theme for the 2014 season. “We have just had such tough luck this season,” Wheat Ridge coach Tony Thomas said. “Right when we would start to get some traction or get some positive things happening for us it seemed like it quickly went the other way. The Farmers finished 8-7-1 (4-5 in 4A Jeffco) good for fifth place in their league — an indication of how good 4A Jeffco is this season. D’Evelyn, who finished a perfect 9-0 in league play as well as a 14-2 record, narrowly beat Wheat Ridge 2-1 on Sept. 18. The Farmers proved this season they can compete with the elite teams in 4A classification soccer, but they never had the luck needed to make a deep playoff run. “We knew they were much better than a No. 27 seed, and they proved that against us tonight,” Ponderosa coach Jim Engles said.

Broomfield sinks Lakewood in playoffs Tigers make great late push but fall in opener By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com BROOMFIELD - Lakewood soccer was swept out of the playoffs by Broomfield in a 3-0 loss Thursday at Broomfield High School.
The No. 21 Tigers made a brilliant late season push to put themselves in position to qualify for the playoffs but perhaps that push left nothing in the tank against the No. 12 Eagles. Broomfield got goals from junior Cody Ewing, junior Porter Milner and senior Chris Sharkey, and while Lakewood had several scoring opportunities of its own the Tigers could never find the back of the net. That is partially due to the play of Broomfield junior Michael Genge, who stopped all four of Lakewood’s shots on
goal. The Tigers finish their season with an under .500 record at 7-9 and 4-3 in 5A Jeffco. And while that resume seems modest, Lakewood did make an incredible run to get positioned to make the state tournament. The Tigers opened the season by losing seven of their first nine games. However, most of those losses came in tightly contested games that Lakewood simply couldn’t find a way to win. But just when it looked like Lakewood
was going to struggle for the entirety of its season the Tigers got red hot and reeled off four straight league victories beating Chatfield, Bear Creek, Standley Lake and Pomona. Lakewood was led by junior Alejandro Avila who scored seven goals this season. Junior goaltender Hector Moreno, who made 29 saves this season, will return in 2015 along with Avila to build off the Lakewood’s strong late season finish. Expect the Tigers to be in the mix for a 5A Jeffco league title in 2015.

A-West, Ralston Valley both win openers Mustangs roll and Wildcats survive scare as teams advance in playoffs By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com DENVER - Over the past couple season Arvada West soccer has been looked at as one of the best teams in the state.
However, the team suffered first round knock-outs in the state tournament over the past two seasons by much higher seeds. This season No. 17 A-West was on a mission to not only advance but to make a deep playoff run which they hope started with a 1-0 victory over No. 16 Montbello Thursday at All City Field. A lone second half goal by senior Brandon Oeltjenbruns proved to be the game winner and junior goaltender Andy Fendel made five tough saves, helping the Wildcats advance to the Round of 16 where they
faced Rock Canyon, Wednesday at 4:30 at Shea Stadium.
Ralston Valley rides momentum After winning its first 5A Jeffco league championship just days before, Ralston Valley soccer got a big playoff win beating Denver East 3-1 Thursday at North Area Athletic Complex. Senior Jordan Quinlisk set the tone for the Mustangs by heading in a spectacular goal midway through the first half. The Mustangs carried over the momen-

tum from completing a perfect 7-0 5A Jeffco season by beating a Denver East team that some thought had a chance to make a playoff run. But the combination of head coach Kyle Kazemi’s coaching along with a team hungry for redemption has fuelled the Mustangs fantastic season — which isn’t over just yet. Ralston Valley (10-6, 7-0 in league) then played No. 2 Smoky Hill — regarded as one of the state’s best teams — Wednesday at Smoky Hill High School.
SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF OCT 20 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Caution dominates the Sheep’s monetary aspect this week. Rams and Ewes might want to shear their big spending plans until a more favorable financial picture begins to emerge by week’s end. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Thrift counts both at home and at work. So you might want to rethink major purchases or investments. Also, be wary of a so-called revelation about a previous decision. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Both household budgets and workplace accounts might benefit from some judicious trimming of unnecessary expenses. A partnership could lead to an unexpected challenge.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) A previously overlooked opportunity could re-emerge with a new travel-related matter. Check this out carefully to see if it’s what you really want before you decide one way or another. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) This could be the start of a new career-changing phase, so start marking down your many accomplishments for those who need to know how much you have to offer. Good luck. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) It’s not too early for the sometimes procrastinating Virgo to start making those long-distance travel plans. The sooner you decide where to go, when to go and how to go, the better. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Financial matters once again figure in any major action you might take regarding career, travel or other endeavors. You’ll want a ready reserve to help you back up those moves. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Trying to resolve a problem in a personal relationship could be more difficult than you’d expected. Look into the possibility that someone might be interfering for his or her own reasons. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) A project you once rejected might be more attractive because of changes that you feel you can now work with. The weekend is especially favorable to family matters. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) This is a good week for the gregarious Goat to enjoy being with people you care for. You might even want to show off those creative kitchen skills you’re so adept at. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A colleague might think your attitude is patronizing or even outright insulting. True. That might be his or her problem. But you might want to take some reassuring steps anyway. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) It’s a good time to jettison those old concepts about a family matter you might have been holding on to. This will help make room for a new and more enlightened way of dealing with it. BORN THIS WEEK: You like to analyze a puzzling situation before you try to resolve it.

ARVADA - Faith Christian football continued to roll with its 41-0 victory over Denver West Friday, at Faith Christian High School. The Eagles overwhelmed the Cowboys almost immediately, and by the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end were playing backups and underclassmen, as they prepare for the state playoffs. Faith Christian used a total team effort to dismantle Denver West as its junior quarterback Adam Buchanan was near perfect going 8-for-12 for 143 yards and two touchdowns. Senior Jake Sanders was the recipient of both of those touchdown passes and he finished with 89 receiving yards off of five catches. The versatile Eagles also used nine different running backs throughout the game, getting 60 yards off nine carried for junior running back Trevor Olsen. Olsen also had two touchdowns and senior running back Daniel Landewisch added another, as the duo continued to terrorize its opponents. Olsen and Landewisch, perhaps the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best running back combination in any classification, has combined for 1,190 rushing yards this season and 18 touchdowns. Moreover, the duo accounts for an average of 170 rushing yards per game for the Eagles. However, while everyone is talking about how good Faith Christianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense is, its defense deserved a big chunk of the credit for their teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success this season. The Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defense has delivered four shutouts this season and has given up only 69 total points this season, giving up an average of just 7.6 points per game. Credit unsung heroes like junior Nick Cortes for some of that formidable defense. Cortes has five interceptions and a forced fumbles on his resume this season and is one of the defenseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest playmakers. Faith Christian will now enter the 2A state tournament as a No. 8 seed who will host No. 9 seeded Bayfield at a time and date yet to determined.
