Finding forgiveness By Amy Woodward
awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com Louis Zamperini’s tale of surviving a vicious Japanese prisoner of war camp during World War II was unknown to many. Even when Donna Miller, a Golden native and history enthusiast, was asked nearly eight years ago if she had ever heard of Louis Zamperini — she was unaware of his story. But her lack of familiarity would not last long. Miller, an American Airlines pilot and history lover, met Zamperini through a mutual friend during a layover in Los Angeles. After hearing about his story and meeting him in person, a friendship kindled, and she would spend a handful of years traveling with Zamperini to numerous public appearances where he discussed his journey in finding faith and forgiveness after surviving years of abuse at the hands of Japanese guards. “In his forgiveness he was able to let everything go,” Miller said. “He had this very burden free, happy life.” Zamperini passed away in July 2014 at the age of 97. “Unbroken,” a movie based on the book of the same title, hits theaters on Christmas Day.
Directed by Angelina Jolie and written by Joel and Ethan Coen, “Unbroken” details the former Olympian’s hellish ordeal in which Zamperini was tortured and brutally beaten for more than two years by Japanese forces after the bombardier veteran’s B-24 crashed in the Pacific. Zamperini was one of three crewmen to survive the crash out of the 11 people that were on board. The three men spent 47 days on a raft set adrift before being picked up by Japanese sailors. “He inspired me to push harder and not give up,” Miller said. “One of things he always said was don’t give up and don’t give in.” Zamperini’s survival as a POW is only a fraction of his story. His post-war years that left him with post-traumatic stress disorder led him to find his faith and ultimate forgiveness for his captors that showed no mercy. In 1950, Zamperini return to Japan as a missionary, where he met a few of his former captors and pleaded for clemency for one of them who was in prison awaiting trial for war crimes. Clemency was never granted but Zamperini’s enduring resilience and grace has inspired thousands of people across the globe. He received many letters from people facing numerous challenges including cancer treatments, Miller said, adding that just knowing Zamperini was inspiration

touched his heart that his story could help other people,” Miller said. “I feel so honored to have known him.”

creader@colorado communitymedia.com Chest pain is one of the top reasons people visit hospitals and the Society of Cardiovascular Patient Care (SCPC) recognizes hospitals that provide the best care patients in need of chest pain treatment. Lutheran Medical Center in Wheat Ridge received full accreditation as a Chest Pain Center from the SCPC for the changes and improvements made to its chest pain treatment and outreach efforts. “Lutheran earning its Chest Pain Center accreditation shows that we have worked hard and are continuously committed to providing excellent and appropriate patient care to `all-comers’ with chest pain,” said Grant Wicklund, Lutheran president and CEO in a statement. “We are dedicated to
promoting community awareness around heart disease in an effort to reduce the number of lives it claims as our nation’s No. 1 killer.” Lutheran received its accreditation by meeting or exceeding a wide array of criteria and hosting an on-site review by SCPC. Some of the areas that Lutheran had to demonstrate expertise in include: integrating the emergency department with the local emergency medical system, having a functional design that promotes optimal patient care and supporting community outreach programs that educate the public to promptly seek medical care if they display symptoms of a possible heart attack. “We put a lot of work into our system here for high and low risk patients,” said Sara Colbert, the Chest Pain Center coordinator at Lutheran. “The process took about a year and we worked with local EMT agencies and community outreach.” The accreditation program helps physicians to reduce time to treatment during the early stages

SCPC’s accreditation process ensures that centers meet or exceed qualityof-care measures in acute cardiac medicine, according to provided information. Colbert said one of the key goals of the hospital’s Chest Pain Center is to get the word out to
residents to call 911 if they’re having chest pain — don’t wait or try to drive yourself to the hospital. “We’re making a big push for this kind of care information at schools and rec centers,” she said. “Now that we have this accreditation we have to make sure everything stays up to levels people expect.” For more information visit www.scpcp.org or www.exemplalutheran.org.
Hopeline recycling supports Family Tree By Clarke Reader
creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com Family Tree and Verizon have been working together to overcome child abuse, domestic violence and homelessness for a decade, and Verzion announced the largest grant yet to help Family Tree. Verizon’s HopeLine grant provided Family Tree with $15,000 to support direct client services for survivors of domestic violence. “This funding will directly impact our clients by providing them with the resources and empowerment necessary to create lasting, positive change in their lives,” said Scott Shields, Family Tree CEO. “The programs we will be able to offer are critical in helping our clients on the path to self-sufficiency.” The HopeLine program collects no-longer
used wireless phones, batteries and accessories from any wireless carrier and phones that can be refurbished are sold for reuse and those without value are disposed of in an environmentally sound way. Proceeds from the program are used to provide wireless phones and cash grants to local shelters and non-profit organizations that focus on domestic violence prevention and awareness. “We are proud to support an organization like Family Tree, which is making a difference in the lives of survivors of domestic violence every day,” said Chris Lewter, regional president of Verizon Wireless. “HopeLine has been a passion for Verizon Wireless for almost 15 years, and we are proud to help play a role in ending domestic violence in our communities.”
Shields said an important part of receiving the grant is being held accountable about how the money is spent, and so the organization is making sure the $15,000 is used to help their clients in the best ways possible. He said the money may go to transportation options and travel vouchers if their clients need that assistance. “These funds provide us with resources to support our clients,” he said. “We are able to provide services at a level we wouldn’t be able to otherwise.” HopeLine phone donations are accepted at all Verizon Wireless Communications stores across Colorado.

Designated drivers keep holidays safe It seems that we can find a top 10 list or the top 10 reasons to do just about anything these days. I mean, everything from places to live, cars to purchase, gadgets to own, rationale to drink coffee or tea, favorite vacation spots, and so many more. If you have ever caught David Letterman’s show, there was a Top 10 list every night, usually designed to make a satirical point. Now, with the holidays upon us, I thought I would encourage us all to drink responsibly, and if we are going to take advantage of the festivities and celebrate with our favorite spirits, to not just consider having a designated driver, but to make the commitment and ensure that we have a designated driver or safe ride home whether it is a taxi, bus, or chauffeured ride of some kind. Maybe it’s our turn to be the DD, the designated driver, or maybe it’s someone else’s turn, but either way, let’s not just celebrate the season, let’s celebrate the fact that we are driving safely and soberly and celebrate all of the DDs out there, especially during this time of year. So here it goes, the Top 10 list — Reasons to Celebrate Having a Designated
Driver: 10) Bragging rights (That’s right, I have a designated driver, don’t you?) 9) Convenience of a ride anywhere we need to go (Isn’t it really all about convenience?) 8) Others will see us as really, really smart (Women and men both love the DDs) 7) Eliminate the worry about how we will get home (Or waking up in some very strange place) 6) Freedom to celebrate as we would like to this year (Jail time is not freedom) 5) Respect from our peers (R.E.S.P.E.C.T. equals coolness!) 4) Avoidance of expensive tickets, legal
fees, and fines (If you can’t pay the fine. don’t do the crime) 3) Avoidance of jail time (Freedom is not jail time) 2) We live to celebrate another day (Party on!) … and the number-one reason is … 1) Safety for ourselves and everyone else on the road (Every day is a good day, just try missing one) If we really take a look at the list above, wouldn’t you agree that we should do everything we can to celebrate and appreciate our DDs? I am not sure about you, but I have the utmost respect for the person who volunteers to be the safety net and make sure that their family and friends arrive home safely. I also have immense respect for the people who are smart enough to plan in advance to have a designated driver in their group when they plan on partying. Parties happen, partying takes place, overindulging is a given in some cases as we celebrate during the holiday season or really at any time of year. And I am amazed and truly appreciative of the people who recognize that they have had

too much and leave their car in the parking lot or at a friend’s house, call a taxi or arrange another ride, and come back in the next day or two to pick up their car. What a great decision and definitely one worth celebrating as we celebrate. According to CDOT there have already been 435 traffic related fatalities here in Colorado in 2014, with 150 of those fatal accidents involving alcohol. As the years winds down, let’s not invite any more unwanted tragedy into our lives and into our communities. Instead, let’s celebrate, appreciate, and love on our designated drivers. How about you? Are you up for some partying this holiday season? And if so, do you have your DD plan in place?

Messages to home ICCS clients send videos to children By Clarke Reader
creader@coloradocommunitymedia. com Spending time with family is one of the reasons that so many look forward to the holidays — but not everyone has that opportunity. Some of the female ex-offenders in the Lakewood Intervention Community Correction Services (ICCS) have the opportunity to read to their children via DVDs thanks to the Community Educational Outreach (CEO) Read To Me Program. “We started the program with women reading books to their children on a tape recorder and we’d send the tape along with the book,” said CEO director of operations Vanessa Montano. “We thought we’d go with DVDs because they’re more personal — many of our clients don’t get to see their children very often.” According to CEO executive director Dory Dannettell, CEO has worked with ICCS since 2003 and plays a key role in
helping the residents with educational and employment needs. They work to bring the ex-offenders the kinds of classes needed to receive a GED and to find steady employment. “We work to help create resumes, do mock-interviews and give them the skills they need to be successful when they’re done here,” Dannettell said. “The people who have made it through the program have found that it makes a huge difference.” Greg Kildow, executive director of ICCS, said there is a lot of oversight for the women staying at the Lakewood location, and that its one of the few “halfway house” locations that was specifically designed for community corrections. “Many of the clients are sentenced here directly from the courts or are working toward a parole situation,” he said. “Many of the people we work with have mental health issues and substance abuse issues they need to work through.” In the Read To Me program, mothers were able to record themselves reading books to their children, which will be sent to them for the holidays. “I really like this because I’m able to

Photo by Clarke Reader send this video to my son, since he likes reading,” said ICCS client Tiffany Howe. “I want him to know I’m still there and think about him. I really enjoy his interested in school and reading.” For Christina Luna, the Read To Me program is an opportunity to reach out to her three children and show them she is still
invested in how they are doing. “My kids really love reading, and the love mom being involved,” she said. “Reading for the camera I was a little nervous at first but I ended up really liking it.” For more information, visit www.ceocolorago.org.
Quick selected to serve as judge AG candidate will serve in county where he was prosecutor By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Don Quick may have lost the state attorney general’s race in November, but he ended up receiving a pretty nice consolation prize. The former Adams County district attorney will soon preside over the same courtrooms where he once argued after he received a judicial appointment from Gov. John Hickenlooper on Dec. 9. “It’s a great opportunity,” said Quick. “Serving on the bench has always been an interest of mine, a way to serve the public and still be in the courtroom.” Quick will fill a bench seat in the 17th Judicial District that is being vacated by
retiring Judge Chris Melonakis. Quick will take over judicial duties on Jan. 12. A judicial commission sent the names of three finalists to Hickenlooper, who ultimately selected Quick “after receiving broad support from both sides of the aisle and from all parts of the legal community for Don’s application,” the governor said in an emailed statement. “This support and his extensive legal experience, including as district attorney for the 17th Judicial Quick District itself, makes him the best fit for the job,” Hickenlooper said. Quick served as Adams County DA from 2005 through 2013, after having held other positions in the office. While serving in Adams County, he brought forth numerous convictions in what is known as the Quality Paving scandal, and he took time to work on increasing graduation rates in
high schools. Prior to that, Quick served as chief deputy attorney general under former attorney general Ken Salazar. Quick will serve two years as a divorce court judge, before he rotates to preside over other areas of law that will include

civil and criminal justice. Quick, a Democrat, lost an attorney general’s race to Cynthia Coffman in the fall, in a contest where he received numerous endorsements including the Denver Post, Grand Junction Daily Sentinel and Durango Herald.

Buyers Often Pay More Than They Should When Buying a Home
It’s easy to predict closing costs for sellers — basically, commissions + title insurance + closing fee + HOA fees, if any — but the closing costs for buyers, unless they are paying all cash, are far less predictable. The costs paid by buyers who finance their purchase with a mortgage can definitely add up. There is little consistency among lenders as to the loan origination, document preparation and numerous other charges which are paid by buyers. Most of those charges are spelled out in what’s called the Good Faith Estimate and cannot be substantially changed prior to closing. This allows buyer to do some comparison shop among lenders, although not many take advantage of that opportunity, trusting in a lender they’ve used before or in the lender recommended by their real estate agent. If you do utilize the lender recommended by your agent, however, note that it may be a “captive” or in-house lender. You’ll know this because the Real Estate Commission requires your agent to present a Affiliated Business Arrangements disclosure listing those lenders, title companies and even inspection
companies that are partially or fully owned by your agent’s brokerage. Virtually all the big brokerages have such affiliated companies and they earn those brokerages healthy profits. Agents in these brokerages are encouraged to recommend these captive vendors to their clients and can find themselves being rewarded with incoming referrals. Affiliated business relationships can pose a conflict of interest which has not gone unnoticed by the real estate commission, but so far all they have chosen to do is require disclosure of these relationships. I know the director of the Division of Real Estate is concerned about the potential conflicts and is considering recommending other measures to protect the public. Meanwhile, if your agent does recommend their affiliated lender, simply ask the agent to provide the name of a second trusted but unaffiliated lender from whom you might get a competitive quote. That will take the form of a second Good Faith Estimate, but do also request a list of fees that may not be on the GFE, since those do exist. Regarding title insurance, the seller is probably paying the “owner’s” policy which insures
that you, the buyer, are going to have clear title to the property, and those premiums themselves are pretty competitive, but the cost of the piggy-back policy insuring your lender and the closing fees associated with that policy can vary greatly, so be sure to ask about those fees and see if another title company offers lower fees. The fee for closing services on the real estate transaction itself — as opposed to the closing of your loan — are usually split 50/50 between buyer and seller and can be as low as $100 and as high as $750. A good website for comparison shopping title companies is www.mytitleins.com. Even when the MLS listing names a title company, your contract to buy can specify another title company with lower buyer fees without shifting the cost of the owner’s title insurance policy from the seller to the buyer. Ask your buyer’s agent about this possibility. I
have done this many times when representing a buyer. Another area where buyers can pay more than they should is when the buyer’s agent inserts a “broker administrative commission” in their buyer agency agreement. The larger brokerages in particular impose transaction fees of $200 to $400 on their agents, and the agents will matter-of-factly insert that amount in their buyer agency agreement for you to pay at closing. However, you can demand that your agent absorb that fee himself, and your agent will remove it from the buyer agency agreement rather than lose you as a buyer. I feel bad for buyers when I see those fees on the settlement statements, but of course I can’t say anything about it at closing, and it’s too late then anyway. If you have other questions about how you can save money on closing or other costs as a buyer, feel free to contact me.

Partnership protects water New partnership donates funds to protect forests By Clarke Reader
creader@colorado communitymedia.com One of the key ingredients in MillerCoors beers is the famous clear mountain water. On Dec. 16 the company joined with PepsiCo and the Wells Fargo Foundation to ensure that water will be protected for millions of Colorado residents. The three organizations announced they will donate $1 million to The Nature Conservancy to protect the Front Range forests, which in turn protect a clean water source for the state. “The Nature Conservancy’s mission is to protect that land and waters that all life depends on,” said Heidi Sherk, The Nature Conservancy interim state director of Colorado. “The Conservancy works with partners to find solutions that benefit both people and nature.” On hand for the announcement were representatives from the three organizations, who highlighted the importance of protecting the state’s water supply. “This is not just a place where we do business — the Front Range forests are part of our heritage,” said Tom Long, MillerCoors CEO. “The forests catch the winter snowpack and supply water for more than two-thirds of Colorado’s population. We need to ensure we have safe, clean drinking water.” Megan Smith, PepsiCo North America Beverages director of sustainability, said simple acts often lead to big changes and this corporate partnership will have a huge positive effect for Colorado. Previous year’s droughts and forest fires have left more than 6 million acres of the state’s forest at risk for large wildfires, and 1.5. million of those acres are in the Front

Photo by Clarke Reader Range area, according to information provided by MillerCoors. The donation will help The Nature Conservancy design, implement and measure progress on several forest restoration projects over the next three years in the Front Range, including thinning trees, removing
dry vegetation and conducting prescribed burns. John Stulp, special policy adviser to Gov. John Hickenlooper on water, said these kinds of projects are needed to protect forests and watersheds that so many depend on.
“We need to expand and amplify the impact of what we do and increase the scale and scope of our work,” Sherk said. “These funds will help us to restore forest resilience. We need our forests and right now, our forests need us.”

Denver Area Housing Inventory Tight in November
November brought an 18 percent decrease compared to last month and an overall 27 percent decrease from last year, according to Metrolist, Colorado’s largest MLS and the provider of REcolorado.com. However, the decrease in housing inventory did not affect home sales which remained strong with home prices increasing. The average sold price in November was $329,306, up two percent from last month and a nine percent increase year over year.

In February 2014, Drs. Scott and Leah Hahn, D.C., F.I.C.P.A. of Body In Balance Chiropractic overhauled their practice to become Body In Balance Wellness Center. Both Dr. Scott and Dr. Leah graduated with honors from Northwestern Health Sciences University. Drs. Scott and Leah Hahn first began strictly as a Chiropractic office, and have grown tremendously over the years due to patient demand and their success in approaching health from a wellness standpoint rather than sickness. Wellness is deeply rooted in their lives, and consequently, they’ve expanded their services to now include: Chiropractic, massage therapy, nutritional and weight-loss counseling, personalized-fitness training, and many other services. This wellness approach has led to the inclusion of the 8 Weeks to Wellness® program for which the doctors are uniquely qualified. Looking at the two of them, you would know instantly that they “practice what they preach.” Both are articulate and energetic. They resonate wellness and promise the same results for their patients through motivation and instruction. They are happily married with one healthy, well “adjusted” child.

Fleetwood photos on display in Denver By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Drummer Mick Fleetwood, a founding member of the multi-hit rock band Fleetwood Mac, which played at the Pepsi Center on Dec. 12, is a many-faceted artist. Musician, yes, but also art photographer and author. As the band is touring, so is a traveling exhibit of his photographs, “Reflections: The Mick Fleetwood Collection,” which is displayed at Fascination Street Art in Cherry Creek through Dec. 31, where he
met briefly with collectors on Dec. 11. Fleetwood said, in an interview in the Arizona Republic, that his father always had a nice camera and shot photos as the family traveled — a practice the musician started himself many years ago, when on the road with the hugely popular band. Numerous prints accumulated, and a friend in Hawaii suggested he consider exhibiting them. Fleetwood and bassist John McVie formed the band in 1967, with McVie’s then-wife Christine, a keyboardist/vocalist, joining in 1970. Popularity really expanded in 1974 when Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joined on New Year’s Eve. Eventually, Fleetwood’s photographic eye turned to nature as his subject — when
Mines coach plans move to Montana Staff Report After 15 seasons and more than 100 victories, Colorado School of Mines Head Football Coach Bob Stitt is moving on to coach a Division I team at the University of Montana. Stitt became the Mines program’s alltime wins leader with his 85th in the 2012 season opener against William Jewell. In doing so, he passed Mines legend and former Golden city mayor Marv Kay ‘63. Stitt eclipsed the 100-win plateau in this seasons’ 46-0 shutout of William Jewell and finishes his career 108-62 (.635) all-time record, including an 83-44 record in Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference games. “The past 15 years at Colorado School of Mines have been very special to me and my family. I will miss all of the students, faculty and administration who helped me during my tenure as head football coach. I am sad that I will not be coaching the great group of men who return to Mines next fall, but I am confident they will do great things in the future,” Stitt said in a statement released by the school.. During his tenure at Mines, Stitt coached a grand total of 153 All-RMAC performers, 39 All-Region selections and 16 All-Americans. He held a .635 winning percentage during 15 seasons at the helm of the Oredigger football program – the
highest in school history for a coach with at least 20 games under his belt. In 2004, Stitt led the Orediggers to the best season in school history as the team went undefeated (8-0) in conference play and captured its first RMAC title since 1958. In addition, the 2004 squad posted a perfect 11-0 mark in the regular season and advanced to the NCAA Division II playoffs for the first time in program history. Stitt was instrumental in helping senior quarterback Chad Friehauf win the 19th Annual Harlon Hill Trophy in 2004 as the top player in NCAA Division II. Friehauf, who established an NCAA Division II single-season record for passing yards (4,646) in 2004, became the first player from Mines and the RMAC to win the Harlon Hill Trophy. The record-setting 2004 season helped earn Stitt RMAC Coach of the Year, Division II AFCA Region 5 Coach of the Year and d2football.com Southwest Regional Coach of the Year accolades. “Coach Stitt has been a valuable member of our school community. He has helped build Mines football into one of the top Division II football programs in the country. We wish him all the best in his new job at the University of Montana,” said David Hansburg, Mines director of athletics. The school reports immediately beginning to look for a new head coach.
at home in Hawaii or on the way to another concert. He collected photos of English gardens, before he moved his mother to live near him in Hawaii. “When I take a photo, I am primarily trying to capture a feel and a moment …,” he said. With some prints, he embellishes them with paint to emphasize shapes or colors. “I see colors and highlights that I hope the viewer also sees and with my direction, we have some of the photo canvases enhanced with paint and texture to feature those.” His collection also includes images of the changing scene in Maui, such as an old, rusted truck, abandoned and overgrown by vegetation. He also said his photos “encompass my

Looking for those little miracles How deep a hole is humanity in? Last week, in Pakistan, terrorists took over a school, set a female teacher on fire, and then proceeded to shoot and kill over 130 children. That story knocked off of the front pages the story of the disturbed man—who also thought he was a terrorist—who took hostages at a coffee shop in Sydney, Australia, and killed two in a 16-hour standoff before being overrun by police. The African country of Sierra Leone has cancelled Christmas this year because of the Ebola epidemic. I didn’t even think cancelling Christmas was within the powers of humans, but, well, there you have it. Last Sunday we passed a grim anniversary: two years ago, a very disturbed young man broke in to an elementary school in Connecticut and murdered 20 children and 6 adults before committing suicide. And this is a list that doesn’t include various wars, genocides, and scary threats we humans are inflicting on each other all over the world. Last week I wrote about holes. But that was on a personal level—what can you do for an entire race intent on digging holes for itself? Why, you would have to believe in miracles to think that we had any chance of surviving each other. Luckily, it’s Christmas — it is the time of
miracles. So, be of good cheer. A single mom, working two jobs, who still finds time to take her kid to soccer practice. That’s a miracle. A young man from a broken family, who once watched his cousin die of a gunshot wound in the street, who chooses to pursue an advanced education. That’s a miracle. A teacher, a single mother, who cares enough for her students to make sure that every child gets to participate in a Secret Santa exchange, all while preparing for her own surgery. That’s a miracle. A football team — a group of young men — who put aside their competitiveness to give a special needs student from another school a chance to score a touchdown. That’s a miracle. A popular young man who stands up next to a young girl who is being picked on and says “No more.” That’s a miracle.
A family, who takes the pain of their tragedy and uses it to energize a nationwide campaign to raise awareness of and resources to end bullying in schools. That’s a miracle. God, who so loved the world that He sent His only Son to walk among us. To jump in this gigantic hole and help us find the way out, not by force of arms or great power, but by compassion and love. That’s a miracle. The trick, I suppose, then, is to go forward from Christmas, and remember that, no matter how deep or dark we seem to be digging, there is always hope for a better tomorrow. And it doesn’t start with grand gestures by governments and great speeches by (of all things) politicians. Most of the time, it starts with little acts of random kindness and moments of courage by individuals who have a million reasons to walk past the hole and avert their eyes. God Bless those who jump in holes with flashlights, candles, mirrors, cell phones. Or less. Just because. And Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Thumbs up at Christmas, all year round Throughout the year, I collect what I call “thumbs-up” moments – the cool, generous, outstanding, amazing, or simply kind things that people do for others. Many of these selfless gestures are anonymous … that is, the kindness of strangers. I’ve written in this space before about the kindnesses I received from strangers on my Nepal trip last year, as well as from the person who delivered a cabinet I purchased from Craigslist because it was too big to fit in my own vehicle. The thumbsup moment that launched my collection occurred when a guy in a souped-up sports car slowed way down in a turn lane so that a teen in a drivers-ed car could merge safely in front of him. I’ve witnessed much spontaneous generosity in our communities and with the focus on giving at the holidays, I asked people I know to share their own thumbsup moments. In the process, I learned a lot about the true nature of our friends
and neighbors, not just at Christmas but all year round. Remember Black Friday? On that cold and frosty morning, one of my friends was first in line at an electronics store. A couple of people behind him, a young woman was shivering in just a thin hoodie. You can guess what happened next: my friend shed his jacket to share with her. When asked about this later, he shrugged and said simply, “That’s how I was raised.” Many of us have heard of random acts
of kindness such as people paying for the order of the car behind them at Starbucks or a fast food drive-through lane. One of my neighbors takes this generosity a step further – she likes to pay off people’s layaway anonymously. At K-Mart, for example, she will ask for an order with a balance due, in a certain price range, with children’s toys and clothes so that she knows it’s for a family. When she pays off the balance, the store calls the family to let them know they can pick up their items. Another friend told me a delightful story about a mother and daughter duo walking up and down the street outside shops, handing out little slips of folded paper. The one she received said: “You are perfect just the way you are.” Whole families get into the spirit at this time of year, too, playing Santa by driving a big van around to deliver donated gifts to those in need. One family goes Christmas caroling at nursing homes. By their
admission, it doesn’t always sound pretty, but with a guitar in tow and handmade cards from the kids, the residents love it. And such generosity isn’t confined to the holidays. Some friends run an outreach all year long, cooking meals for the homeless community and baking bread with them to build relationships. There is no shortage of organizations that need our donations, just as there are limitless ways to share kindness that don’t cost a cent. We can create our own thumbs-up moments – everyone we meet is fighting some sort of battle, and I truly believe that as we give away something of ourselves, we also lighten our own loads. Wishing you peace this wondrous season. Andrea Doray is a writer who believes that you are perfect just the way you are. Contact her at a.doray@andreadoray.com.
World premiere at The Edge Theater The Edge Theater is continuing its tradition of presenting new works with its world premiere of Ellen K. Graham’s “The Familiars.” I’m still processing my reaction to this quirky and sometimes slightly disjointed story. The Burdock family, which consists of the mother, Honora, siblings Kath, Chris, and Dom, along with granddaughter Diana and Dom’s girlfriend Fedosia, has once again gathered at the family home for Christmas Eve/Day. This annual meeting is rife with traditions, most of which are loathed by one or more family members. No one wants to upset Honora so they cowboy up and conform. This year, however, something seems to be amiss. Honora is acting strangely having recently sustained a concussion. Instead of directing the preparations for cookie baking, holiday table setting in the strictly prescribed manner, and fixing the main Christmas meal, Honora retires to her room for a nap. Her children are in a
‘Fiddler on the Roof’ returns to BDT Stage
tizzy. The only seemingly normal person in the room is Dom’s girlfriend who has a pragmatic deportment which I found very appealing. There are some startling revelations along the way that add multiple layers to the proceedings. All in all, it was an intriguing evening. “The Familiars” plays through Dec. 28 at the Edge Theater, 1560 Teller St., Ste. 200 in Lakewood. For tickets and info, call 303-232-0363 or visit www. theedgetheatear.com.
You simply cannot go wrong with “Fiddler on the Roof,” especially with the uber talented Wayne Kennedy as Tevye. Follow that with populating the cast with exceptionally gifted actors/singers and you have the makings of a wonderful experience. Tevye, his wife Golde (Shellie Cox-Robie) and their five daughters live in the fictional Anatevka, Russia, a tight-knit Jewish community. Anti-Semitism is growing in Czarist Russia; however, Tevye has managed to maintain good relations with the local military and the village is usually left alone. In spite of being very poor, the community members come together as a unit and celebrate life. Tevye and Golde’s three older daughters roil the waters by their choices of suitors. This is much to the dismay of their parents who believe in marriages arranged by the local Yente (Barb Reeves). Added into the mix are the
serious rumblings from the military. The continuing hope and optimism expressed by the Jews is inspiring and heartwarming. Artistic Director Michael J. Duran directs the large cast with thoughtfulness and precision. Songs in this wonderful musical include: “Tradition,” “Sunrise, Sunset,” and “Do You Love Me,” among many others. “Fiddler” plays through Feb. 28, 2015. This is the best entertainment value on the Front Range. The dinner alone is worth the price of admission. BDT Stage is located at 5501 Arapahoe Ave., in Boulder. For tickets and information, call 303-4496000 or visit the website at www.bdtstage. com. Columnist Harriet Hunter Ford may be reached at hhunterford@gmail.com.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR School district should reflect the community Money, money, money! Where does the money for Jefferson County Schools actually go? It will soon be time for the Jefferson County Board of Education to develop the budget for the next fiscal year. What is the process? Who will be involved in the process? What are the priorities? The League of Women Voters of Jefferson County supports policies that promote efficient administrative and financial practices in the Jefferson County School District. To that end we believe that citizen participation on advisory committees should continue throughout the budget process. Public workshops and hearings should be held early in the budget process and a cross-section of the community must be engaged throughout this important process. It is imperative that information be
gathered from a broad sample of Jefferson County citizens. This broad sample must include all socio-economic levels, age levels, diverse race and ethnic groups, as well as people with and without children. A survey with multiple questions would be the most cost effective and valid method by which to gather such a sample. Survey questions should be developed by professionals trained in designing surveys that accurately represent the opinions of the community as a whole. The school district budget must reflect not only the principles and goals of the district but those of the larger community as well. A well-developed budget will reflect careful stewardship of scarce resources. Patricia F. Mesec President of League of Women Voters of Jefferson County

Jeffco District Attorney’s Office accepts donation The Colorado Federal Savings Bank donated $15,000 to the Jeffco DA’s Communities Against Senior Exploitation or CASE program. The donation will be used for crime prevention information and services for seniors, as well as law enforce-
ment training on the new Elder Abuse Mandatory Reporting Law which took effect on July 1. In 2014, CASE provided 11 crime prevention programs specifically for seniors living in lower income retirement communities or at communal meal sites. One of our most popular programs provides free 911 emergency cell phones to older adults who cannot afford the cost of cell phone service. In the past two years, approximately 85 percent of the phones provided were to low-income seniors living in retirement communities. CASE also provides a Fraud Hotline, 303-271-6980, and offers free Power Against Fraud presentations to help educate, inform and prevent seniors from becoming victims of identity theft and other scams.

Teen sisters get deal for recording DMNS exhibit shows majesty, adaptability of whales By Clarke Reader
creader@colorado communitymedia.com Some of the most majestic animals on the planet are also the most mysterious. Humans only know small amount about some of the largest creatures on Earth, but the Denver Museum of Nature & Science is giving landlocked Colorado residents a chance to dive deep with whales. Whales: Giants of the Deep is on exhibit at the museum, 2001 Colorado Blvd., through Feb. 16. The exhibit is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Giants of the Deep is developed and presented by the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and was made possible WHAT: Whales: Giants of the through Deep the support WHERE: Denver Museum of of the New Nature and Science Zealand 2001 Colorado Blvd., Denver GovernWHEN: Through Feb. 16 ment 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily and the COST: $9.95 to $14.95 SmithsonINFORMATION: www.dmns. ian Instituorg/whales tion. It is sponsored in Denver by Les Schwab Tires. “This is a traveling show that we’re able to host and enhance with our own ambience, acoustics and activities,” said Zoology curator John Demboski.”People from the Te Papa Tongarewa museum said Denver is one of their favorite places to have these exibits.” The exhibit features life-size models and more than 20 real specimens on display — including the skeleton of a sperm whale that measures 58 feet long. The show features a blend of skulls and skeletons, hands-on objects, digital interactives, immersive projections, and rare artifacts. Visitors can crawl through a life-size replica of the heart of the enormous blue whale, touch real and replica whale teeth, build their own dolphin and see how it swims, accompany a sperm whale on a deep-sea hunt for a giant squid, see the model of a southern right whale featured in the film “Whale Rider,” and enter an immersive sound chamber to hear the “songs” whales use to navigate,
It was a teen dream come true for Evergreen sisters Caitlin and Sidney Powell, 16 and 13 respectively, when their band Facing West landed a record deal recently with Pando Records, a Warner Music Group Label. The Powell girls were formerly known by Two Girls With Guitars, but changed the name to Facing West. According to 9News, the band’s first single, “Anchors,” will be released nationally in early January. The rest of the album will be released in March.

Denver food scene lauded
IF YOU GO
Giants of the Deep exhibit gives visitors a rare hands-on lesson in the giant mammals on how they survive. Courtesy photo find food, and communicate. Demboski and Maura O’Neal, Communications and media relations manager with the DMNS, both said the exhibit celebrates the traditions and stories of the Mäori people of New Zealand, whose history is filled with stories of whales. Visitors will see historic cultural objects — from impressive weapons made from large whale bones to delicate ornaments fashioned from whale teeth. Of course the main attraction is the giant mammals, and the exhibit is broken up into several sections that showcase different features of whales’ history and lives. It begins with Whale Evolution, which details how the mammals moved from land to sea about 50 million years ago. “The closest living relative we see today is the hippo,” Demboski said. “We’re lucky with whales that there’s a nice fossil record that shows how their bodies telescoped to make swimming easier.” Visitors can follow the transformation by examining fossils and animations of ancient species and learn about the evolution of different whale species. The exhibit highlights the diversity of modern whales, which include dolphins and porpoises. The Life Underwater section features
many interactive activities, and two large sperm whale skeletons — a male and female — so visitors can get a sense of their biology and how they survive. Perhaps the most affecting section is Troubled Waters, which examines the dangers whales encounter related human activities. Visitors can see how ships, fishing nets, and pollution affect whales. “Whaling started in the 1700s and became big in the 1800s,” Demboski said. “It wasn’t until the past 30 years that we started seeing laws protecting whales.” Throughout the entire exhibit are features on “Whale People” — first-person interviews about the changing attitudes that have led people from hunting whales to protecting them. Whales: Giants of the Deep has been extremely popular so far, according to O’Neal, with everyone from school groups to family visiting the exhibit. “This exhibit speaks to a lot of different age groups, and doing water-based exhibits is always popular in a landlocked state like this,” Demboski said. “Here at the museum we’re able to take great exhibits like this and make them even better.” For information visit www.dmns.org/ whales.
One of the nicest nods to Denver’s bustling restaurant scene came from a recent piece by National Public Radio. The reporter sought the answer to the popular question, “What makes Denver so tasty?” when it comes to the dining business, which has doubled in sales over the past 10 years. He interviewed Food Network star chef Keegan Gerhard, who rolled the proverbial dice on Denver when he opted to open D Bar, the tiny 17th Street eatery with the longest lines. Gerhard and his pastry chef wife, Lisa Bailey, quickly outgrew the original D Bar space and last month opened a spot three times larger in Uptown. The couple shunned the bright lights and big cities in favor of building a business where they wanted to live. NPR interviewed other top chefs including Jennifer Jasinski, who with business partner Beth Gruitch owns Rioja, Bistro Vendome, Euclid Hall, and most recently Stoic & Genuine in the redeveloped Union Station. Jasinski upped Denver’s restaurant cred by winning a James Beard Award and competing on “Top Chef Masters.” Here’s what NPR said, “When you think of the restaurant scene, Denver probably doesn’t come to mind. But that’s just the latest change for a city whose population has ballooned in the last couple of years, thanks in part to a nearby oil and gas boom. Top chefs are beginning to take notice.” John Imbergamo, perhaps the most trusted man in Denver’s restaurant business, was interviewed for the story on background. Here’s what NPR didn’t discuss, Imbergamo said. “The fast casual segment was ignored but Denver is a hotbed of innovation in that segment of the industry. Chipotle, Qdoba, Tokyo Joes, Noodles, Garbanzos, Pizzeria Locale, Smashburger, the list goes on. Many of these with elevated quick food are consumer steppingstones to fine dining.” Parker continues on Page 12

Energy groups focus on supporting oil, gas New study reveals significant revenue contributions to state, cities By Amy Woodward
awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com In Colorado, the oil and natural gas industry supported 110,000 jobs, contributed $29.6 billion to the economy and generated $1.6 billion in public revenues in 2012, according to a recent study by the University of Colorado Boulder Leeds School of Business. The study also showed school districts collecting $202 million in property tax revenue in 2012, produced from activities in oil and natural gas, with the industry providing local funding for roads, parks, police and fire departments. Figures such as these are not widely discussed, and it’s why a new organization called the Jeffco Energy Action Project (JEAP) has taken shape. “The organization is not about trying to convince anybody about a ballot issue,”
said Joni Inman, chairperson for JEAP and former deputy city manager of Lakewood. “We are just trying to raise awareness about the great contributions the industry (oil and gas) has made.” JEAP is less than two months old but has acquired more than 20 members that sit on the organization’s steering committee, including CEO’s of regional and local chambers of commerce, graduate students from the Colorado School of Mines including one professor, as well as financial advisers, business owners and former state Sen. Bill Schroder, R-Morrison. In Jeffco, figures from 2012 show 142 firms, sole proprietors to larger companies, who were directly related to oil and gas. Severance taxes and federal mineral lease distributions to Jeffco and its municipalities show an annual return of $225,182 for Jeffco government and $98,538 in Lakewood, with Arvada receiving a little over $89,000 and Golden collecting $19,241. Overall, Jeffco ranks No. 7 among Top 10 counties in Colorado for oil and gas related wages. “Some people think that if you are pro oil and gas that you are anti-alternative

While we can’t guarantee they’re all angels, these are great places to start your search for a good man or two.” Denver, at No. 8, scores with 112,038 single men, the web survey says. “Denver has comparable cultural and food scenes to those in other big cities, but (it adds its) own twist with

Influential foursome
Four Denver players in the entertainment scene were named “the most influential people in Denver entertainment in 2014” by axs.com. The website said, “There were so many wonderful performances, contributions and creations that this list certainly could have featured 30 or 40 names. However, there are a few people whose work in 2014 truly stood out, making these four creative individuals among the most influential voices in entertainment in Denver this year.” The four are: Brian Corrigan for Oh Heck Yeah, a street arcade in downtown Denver in June and July; former Denver Post theater critic John Moore, who parlayed his talents into becoming the senior arts journalist for the Denver Center for the Performing Arts; Chris Zacher, founder of the Levitt Pavilion, a new amphitheater in Ruby Hill Park; and funnyman Adam Cayton-Holland as part of The Grawlix comedy show. For more on each recipient, go to www.axs.com/ the-most-influential-people-in-denver-entertainment-
them’ situation in energy,” she said. Encouraging discussion and collaboration between both industries could result in low cost energy and products, Inman said. Either way, the oil and gas industry isn’t going away anytime soon, said Rob Bender, chief executive officer at Well Master Corporation in Golden. Operating for 30 years, Well Master continues to manufacture plunger lift systems that are used to remove liquid from oil and gas wells. “The oil and gas industry actually is very, very good at regulating itself and keeping things clean,” Bender said. Medium sized companies tend to have scientists on staff, putting them way ahead of regulators. “The regulations that come out usually have been put in place and are being abided by the oil and gas industry long before they become law,” he said. “I don’t think people need to be fearful of fossil fuels.” JEAP is hosting public forums and discussions on oil and gas, beginning on Tuesday, Dec. 30 at 6 p.m. at the Community Room at the Lakewood Cultural Center at 470 S. Allison Pkwy., in Lakewood.

Apres ski hotels get nod
Not surprising to those of us who would rather apres than ski, Colorado snagged five spots in Kayak.com’s list of the 10 most popular U.S. apres ski hotels, as reported by CNN. CNN said, “Much like the 19th hole in golf, apres ski is a chance to reward oneself after a busy day of relaxation.” The Colorado top picks are Beaver Creek Lodge, Tivoli Lodge in Vail, Keystone Lodge and Spa, Aspen Meadows Resort and Vail Cascade Resort & Spa. Check out the list at www.cnn.com/2014/12/08/ travel/10-apres-ski-hotels/.

Parenting: Outdoor winter fun for kids Since many animals are nocturnal or scarce, children rarely see shy and secretive animals in the wild. However, animals leave their tracks and mysteries for children. Take a walk in your own backyard in winter or along the beach in summer. These tracks will tell a story. Observe human tracks in your yard. How can you tell which way the person is going? What are they doing? Were they taking out the garbage or delivering a package? Look at the patterns of boots and shoes soles. Observe how they are different in size, tread, and walking pattern. Do family dogs and cats leave tracks in the snow? Being able to distinguish between domestic dog and fox footprints is important.
Making tracks
Make new tracks. Drag a stick behind
like the child in the book “The Snowy Day” by Keats. Take some pictures or make drawings with markers in a science notebook. Leave some seeds and check on the spot later. Did animals visit? Now can you find some wild animal tracks in your backyard, park, or trail? Try to identify them before the snow is too deep. Explain to children that most animals are nocturnal. They look for food at night and sleep during the day. Their
tracks in the snow are often around their homes or trails where they can find food. Many free animal track keys are online and very helpful. The book “Animal Tracks of the Great Lakes” by Stall is also a handy book. Show children some common tracks in your area like rabbits, squirrels, deer, fox, birds, raccoons, chipmunks, shrew, bear, and skunks. Sometimes they will be trailing each other. Why?
Decode tracks
When you first find a set of tracks look for the most distinct print. Note the shape of the heel pad, and count the toes. Even though adults may already know the animal, make it a scientific game. Look at the animal track key, think out loud, and eliminate animals by looking at characteristics closely. Take out a ruler and show children
how to measure a track. Is there evidence that you have several animals, perhaps adults and young ones? Note the habitat. Why are the animals there? Does evidence show animals visit this spot often? Why? Look around for berries and seeds. Is there evidence your animal is a tree climber because the tracks stop there abruptly? Follow some tracks. Where do they lead? Did the animal dig, hop sideways, or run off suddenly? Note that rabbits’ long back paws lead the way because of how they hop. Although there is no substitute for first hand study, it is fun to watch trail camera wildlife videos on YouTube with children. View them alone first, however. For more fun and learning with children see grandparentsteachtoo.org and wnmufm.org “Learning through the Seasons.”

Riding safe Arvada firefighters offer parents car seat safety training By Crystal Anderson
canderson@colorado communitymedia.com A properly installed car or booster seat can cut your child’s risk for injury or death in half, but according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (http://1. usa.gov/1swXMEp), three out of four seats are installed wrong. To help ensure child safety, the Arvada Fire Protection District is offering free, car and booster seat instruction 24 hours a day, seven days a week. “We’re not an installation service, we’re an education service,” said Deanna Harrington, a life safety educator with the district. “We want parents to feel confident and capable to use the seat correctly.” The program, which is available to all parents or guardians of small children, educates individuals about proper ways to ensure child safety while riding in vehicles. Safety technicians are available at all eight stations, and will tailor instruction to each appointment. Approximately an hour long, the lesson teaches parents how to properly use their car or booster seats, how to install them in their vehicle and how to ensure maximum vehicle safety for their child(ren). “That’s my main goal, is to make sure that these parents leave here feeling comfortable, knowing how to put their car seat in, knowing how to put their child in the car seat and knowing they could teach somebody else in the family if they needed to,” said Stephen Johnson, a child passenger safety technician and firefighter within the district. According to Colorado’s Child Passenger Safety Law, all children 13 years old and under should sit in the back seat, and be placed in a car or booster seat until they reach the seat’s upper weight and height
FIVE IMPORTANT TIPS FOR CAR SEAT SAFETY 1) Don’t graduate seats early. Leave children in car or booster seats as long as possible, until the child exceeds the height and weight requirements of the seat. 2) Ensure you have the proper seat for your child and vehicle, reference both the seat and car manual for all specifications and compatibility. 3) Make sure the seat is installed tightly within the vehicle, it should not move more than one inch in any direction when pulled at the belt path. 4) Don’t put children in heavy outerwear, such as a snowsuit or puffy coat, while in the seat, this creates more space between the child and the safety harnesses, increasing the risk for injury. 5.) Before moving children to a seatbelt, make sure they can: sit in the seat without slouching, have knees naturally bend over the front of the seat with their feet flat on the floor, and the belt fits securely across their chest and upper thighs.
limits and pass the five point seat belt test. “Every time you graduate up to a different car seat, you’re loosing some safety,” Harrington said. “We try to educate parents to best practice rather than the law, which is just the minimum.” Using a five-point harness car seat or a booster seat can help reduce the distance a person travels in the case of a collision, drastically reducing their risk of serious injury or fatality. According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) (http://1.usa. gov/1aEIxQK), the proper use of a car or booster seat for infants under one year can reduce the risk for serious injury and death by 71 percent, by 54 percent in toddlers under four and 45 percent in children up to age eight. “Best practice is leave your child rear facing as long as possible,” Johnson said. “Each car seat has maximums for it, whether it’s age, weight or height, and you want to exceed those.”

Hard to picture Do I Have to Tolerate Photos of My Boyfriend’s Ex-Wife? Dear Neil: My boyfriend of 6 months has been a widower for almost 3 years. His late wife of 17 years killed herself, and had multiple addiction and mental health problems. There were no children. He has a half dozen photos of her up, mostly family group photos with her and others in his family. He says the pictures will be put away, and I am trying to be understanding, but I am coming to the end of my patience concerning those photos. We are in a serious relationship. He treats me like a queen, spends all his time with me and he says (and shows) that he loves me. In addition, his family has welcomed me. He’s told me that he’s grateful that he has been given a second chance in life by connecting with me, and I feel the same—but I can’t stand those pictures. What should I do about this?
Annoyed in Pennsylvania Dear Annoyed: A man who stays with a woman through her addiction and mental health problems is a fine man and a good catch. He spent 17 years with her and has spent 6 months with you, which only implies that he may not be over her death quite yet. You want to be careful that you don’t force him to put away her image before he is ready to do so, because he will eventually feel resentment or anger toward you if you do. It’s not that your feelings don’t matter, it’s that your feelings don’t matter more than his do. Perhaps you could afford to be gracious about his ex-wife’s photos. After all, you’re the one who has him now, not her. That way, he can honor the memory of his late wife while still being yours. Tell your boyfriend that you are touched by his devotion to his ex-wife, and that you’ll do everything you can to honor her memory and her spirit, but that her photos make you uncomfortable — as if
he is still married to her and that you are the “other woman.” Let him reflect on that for awhile. If he still doesn’t remove her pictures, he isn’t ready to yet. Perhaps it would be wise for you to wait this out. When he has finished the closure process with his late wife and is ready to commit to you, he will take the pictures down. But a man who treats you like a queen is a man worth being patient for. Dear Neil: I have a neighbor who has increasingly become a source of irritation. She became a friend, and I enjoyed the company. But she became jealous of our lifestyle, and has been attempting to copy my life by looking to buy the same clothes I have and looking to travel where my husband and I travel. I would like not to have anything to do with her anymore, but I live in a small community, and she is a neighbor. How do I get rid of her? I am too embarrassed to say anything.
Not Feeling Neighborly in New Zealand Dear New Zealand: Make yourself scarce. If you’re invited to her house or to an event with her, find reasons why you are “busy.” If she stops over to just talk and say hello, tell her you have an important meeting or phone call you’re expecting. If you bump into her at the grocery store, say hello and then say you are in the middle of a project. She will eventually get the message.

Undrafted Harris now paid like elite cornerback Bronco making quarterbacks pay in breakout year By Pat Graham Associated Press
The photo emblazoned on the front of Chris Harris Jr.’s navy sweat shirt was a tribute to his favorite Denver Broncos cornerback: himself, of course. And the “No fly zone” caption underneath the image was fitting, too, since his side of the field has certainly become restricted air space, with quarterbacks shying away from him. Still, Harris’ cover skills fly under the radar, hardly mentioned in the same breath as other elite defensive backs around the league. But he certainly got paid like one in mid-December when the Broncos rewarded him with a five-year contract extension worth $42.5 million. That’s actually a hometown discount for an organization that took a chance on the undrafted college free agent out of Kansas in 2011. Had Harris hit free agency in the offseason, he would’ve earned more. Just ask him. “I definitely could have gotten more off the open market,’’ laughed the 25-yearold Harris, who had his wife and infant daughter in the audience Dec. 15 at a news conference to announce his extension. “I know that, we all know that, but it’s not all about money at the end of the day. It’s
about being happy, and I’m satisfied.” Well, satisfied everywhere but on the field, anyway. Because he plays with an attitude after going undrafted, which he thinks is the root cause as to why he doesn’t receive as much recognition as, say, a Richard Sherman or a Darrelle Revis or even his teammate, in Denver and at Kansas, Aqib Talib. This could be the season where Harris gains more notoriety, though, possibly make his first Pro Bowl team. He’s having that kind of year for the AFC West champion Broncos, with three interceptions and a team-leading 15 passes defended in limited chances through the first 14 games. “I always thought once you get your contract, I think that’s when the accolades and all that stuff comes,” said Harris, the protege of recently retired and future Hall of Famer Champ Bailey. “But I think people are still going to see me as an underrated player just because of my size and the way I came into the league. “That’s just something where I know my whole career I’m going to have to deal with that.” Broncos boss John Elway certainly saw something in him. And after only a handful of practices, too. “He stood out and I said, `We have something here,’ Elway recounted. “Since he’s been here, he’s shown what he can do.” Especially last season, when he turned in a standout campaign before tearing his left ACL in the Broncos’ divisional playoff against the Chargers. He watched the Su-
per Bowl from the sideline and then underwent surgery. He was back in less than seven months. Hasn’t missed a step, either. “Chris just has something in his head and his heart. He don’t like to lose,” Talib said. “He’s one of the most competitive guys I’ve ever come across in my life.” “The Broncos have now made quite an investment in their secondary, locking up Harris and Talib to the tune of nearly $100 million. A hefty price, but necessary in this quarterback-savvy league. “The passing game’s a big part of the game right now and so you can’t have enough good cover guys,’’ Elway said. “To be able to have two guys like we have in Aqib and now Chris under contract, it’s very, very important.”
Next up for Elway is working out deals for receiver Demaryius Thomas and tight end Julius Thomas. Looming on the horizon is hybrid linebacker Von Miller as well. “We’re hoping that we can get everybody,’’ Elway said. “It’s never going to be easy, but Chris was the target to start with and we were thankful to get that done, so we hope that we can continue to do that and keep this team together. “I’m happy for guys like Chris. I’m happy for him because he’s the type of guy you want around, a great competitor, tough. It just gives him confidence to know what we think of him but also know that he’s got that ability to step up and be that kind of leader.” AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Stapleton contributed to this report.

Easy ideas for holiday wreaths Wreaths are synonymous with the holiday season, and they can range from intricate to simple to flashy to rustic. Creating festive wreaths does not necessarily require a lot of skill, and wreaths can be fashioned from a variety of different materials. The first step to crafting wreaths is to gather the foundation pieces. This usually involves a sturdy material that will serve as the wreath round. It can be vine, foam, branches, or even wire. You’ll also need decorative items that fit the theme of your wreath. These may be berries, ornaments, ribbons, bows, and other trinkets that will be attached to the wreath. Florist wire and tape can be used to attach the ornaments to the wreath.
“Say cheese” wreath
Purchase a premade evergreen wreath or wrap boughs of pine around a wreath frame to make your own. Glue or tie on small wooden frames with photos of the family to the wreath. Fill in the barren spots with small bows and ornaments.
Fruitful wreath
Instead of an evergreen wreath, create something festive and edible. Fruit and vegetables in vibrant colors can be used to fashion a wreath. Use picks or wire to attach oranges, lemons, limes, clementines, and any other produce desired to a foam wreath. Use leaves to fill in sparse areas and a thick ribbon to hang the wreath.
Holly vine wreath
Purchase a plain grapevine wreath and decorate it with sprigs of holly leaves and stems with berries. Simple and festive, this wreath should take only a few minutes to make and then hang.
Metallic wreath
Add a glamorous touch to an evergreen wreath with faux fruit and pine cones that you paint with glimmering metallic colors. Intersperse items in gold, copper and silver for an eye-catching piece that can adorn any spot in
your home. Add a few twinkling lights to reflect off of the metallic elements to add even more appeal.
Bells or glass ornament wreath
Use flexible wire to string a wreath of metal bells or glass ornaments together in a ring shape. Bells not only look nice but also lend a gentle twinkling sound anytime the door is opened.
Floral wreath
Make a fresh flower wreath from a florist’s wreath and fresh blooms. Soak the foam wreath in water according to the packaged directions. Trim flower stems (carnations are durable) and insert the stems into the wreath. Attach a bow to the bottom of the wreath and then hang. This is one wreath that is best displayed the day of the festivities because it has a short shelf life.
Cinnamon wreath
This wreath looks beautiful and gives off that quintessential holiday aroma. Begin with a foam wreath and wrap with a twoinch wide ribbon to cover. Use hot glue to secure cinnamon sticks all around the wreath. For more color, add sprigs of holly, bows or mistletoe.

Poll: Half of Republicans back limits on carbon Nearly as many GOP’ers say U.S. should lead fight on climate change By Dina Cappiello
Associated Press
When Republicans take control of Congress in January, top on their agenda will be undoing environmental regulations they claim will harm the economy, chief among them President Barack Obama’s plans to limit heat-trapping carbon pollution from coal-fired power plants. The results of a new poll from the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and Yale University show their priorities may be misplaced. Six in 10 Americans, including half of all Republicans, said they support regulation of carbon dioxide pollution, although they weren’t asked how. Nearly half of Republicans said the U.S. should lead the global fight to curb climate change, even if it means taking action when other countries do not. And majorities across party lines said environmental protections “improve economic growth and provide new jobs” in the long run, a popular Obama administration talking point. The picture of Republicans that emerges from the poll runs counter to the monolithic view of Republicans in Washington as a global warming-doubting, anti-environmental regulation party keen on attacking Obama’s environmental plans. And the results come as the Obama administration continues to forge ahead on its own with
aggressive plans on climate change, even if it means going head-to-head with a Republican-controlled Congress that could derail the administration’s environmental legacy. “The American people have made it clear they know climate change is real, and that we can protect the planet and grow the economy at the same time,” Frank Benenati, a White House spokesman, said after reviewing the poll results. “Climate deniers in Congress and those who would try to block efforts to address the climate challenge would do well to listen.” Still, climate change itself ranked near the bottom of environmental problems tested in the poll. “Global warming was second to last among environmental issues. That is all you need to know,” said Mike McKenna, a GOP pollster and consultant. In recent weeks and months, the White House has announced a deal with China to curb the greenhouse gases blamed for global warming and pledged $3 billion to a fund that helps poor countries prepare for climate change, further irking Republicans after a near sweep in the midterm elections. The divisions between Republicans and Democrats on global warming are real, the poll shows, and stark. A little over a quarter of Republicans believe global warming is an extremely or very serious problem, compared with 64 percent of Democrats. And while nearly three-quarters of Democrats believe global warming is happening, less than half of Republicans do. “Americans are more concerned about the economy, jobs, and affordable and re-
liable energy, which is counter to the type of regulations coming out of President Obama’s EPA,” Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., said in a statement. Inhofe, who has called global warming a hoax and dismisses the opinions of the majority of the world’s scientists on global warming, will chair the Senate Environment Committee next year. “This poll proves that Republicans here in Washington are disconnected from average Republicans across the country,” said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., the current chairwoman of the Senate environment panel. “Anyone with a pulse and a heartbeat, with the exception of Republicans in Congress, knows that climate change is upon us, and we must step up and reduce dangerous carbon pollution.’’ While issues such as global warming and the Keystone XL oil pipeline are frontburner for politicians, the AP-NORC and Yale poll shows that they are not top-line issues for many Americans, even compared with a dozen other environmental concerns. After the Senate failed to pass a bill approving the Keystone XL oil pipeline, which would carry Canadian tar sands oil to Texas refineries, Republicans vowed to try again next year. But despite protests waged by environmental groups, and the political showdowns on the issue, the new poll shows that half of Americans have no strong opinion on the pipeline; 31 percent favor it, 18 percent oppose it, and the rest are neutral or not sure. A majority of Republicans support it, but Democrats are more ambivalent than opposed. Obama has said he would base his decision on approving the pipeline on whether
it would exacerbate global warming. Yet relatively few Americans make the connection between fossil fuels, the primary culprit in global warming, and environmental risks. Only a third of people surveyed said they were concerned about coal or oil’s environmental risks, suggesting possible support for the Republicans’ defense of those industries and an energy production boom overseen by the Obama administration even as it tackles global warming. Even fewer Americans were concerned about the environmental risks posed by natural gas, which is in the midst of a boom thanks to the technology of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. Fracking has been banned in some areas because of concerns over water and air pollution. The EPA is considering whether the practice needs more federal regulation. The poll also suggests there are limits to Obama’s go-it-alone strategy on global warming: 58 percent of Americans say there should be no global treaty, or the Obama administration should only proceed to negotiate one with the Senate’s backing. The AP-NORC Center and Yale University survey of 1,578 adults was conducted online Nov. 20-Dec. 1, using a sample drawn from GfK’s probability-based KnowledgePanel, which is designed to be representative of the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 2.9 percentage points. Funding for the survey comes from the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Poll continues on Page 20

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF DEC 22, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Your love of the holidays creates a special bond between you and the people in your life. Use this as a way of building stronger relationships that will carry over well beyond this time. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) A new approach could go a long way toward resolving a painful estrangement, especially at this holiday time. And since your aspects favor friendship this week, why not go ahead and try it? GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Your positives continue to dominate, and any negative factors that squeeze in can be dealt with easily. The secret is to tackle them at once and not allow them to benefit by your neglect.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Good news: A colleague’s remarks could help you move toward ultimately resolving that persistent workplace situation. Meanwhile, enjoy the holidays with loved ones. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) No one reflects the bright holiday more than all you Leos and Leonas who love the shimmer and glimmer of the season. P.S.: There just might be a very special something from Santa. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Celebrate the holidays by being more receptive to new experiences. Overriding the Virgo reluctance to try new things could be the best gift you’ve given yourself in a long while. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Good news about a loved one makes the holidays even more festive. Expect some unexpected gifts, so be prepared with a few nicely wrapped packages of goodies to offer in return. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) The holiday season provides an opportunity to meet new people, some of whom you might even consider “worthy” enough to join the Scorpio’s select group of friends. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) You always bring your own wonderful sparkle and light to the holidays, and don’t be surprised if this year someone special reaches out to respond to your warmth in kind. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Togetherness is the dominant theme for the Goat’s holiday celebrations this year. That means reaching out to bring everyone you care for into your very own special circle of light. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A reminder of a very special moment from the past makes the holidays more memorable for the romantic Aquarian. New friendships hold the promise of a romantic future as well. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Getting into the swim of things for all you party-loving Pisceans is easy enough this holiday season. And, of course, you can expect to impress people wherever you go. BORN THIS WEEK: Your dedication brings you the success you strive for, and your generosity impels you to reach out and help others on their way up. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Services Brain activities key for ages 2 to 5 By Esther Macalady Why is it especially important to do activities with children ages two through five? It is so much easier to put them in front of a cute movie or fast moving game on our phones or any sized computer. According to research, children need to understand at least 20,000 words when they enter school. These words are learned from conversations and reading with adults. Brains with 20,000 words say, “Oh, yes. I heard this before when Dad read to me and we talked while playing blocks on the floor. No problem.” Children who sit in front of kids movies and computers and aren’t read to, learn only 3,000 words. Since the devices use the same words over and over, these children have a much harder time learning to read. They haven’t heard or used the large variety of words they encounter in grades K-3.
Making time for kids
How and when do we fit this into busy lives? Evidently this time must be scheduled. If something else must be dropped, if the house is not exactly spotless, if shopping is put on hold, if a phone call goes unanswered, if a favorite show isn’t watched, so be it. This window of opportunity happens only once in a human being’s life. Brain cells develop and make connections rapidly ages two through five. We cannot see the brain, but just observe the difference between a two year old and a five year old body. Think of what must be happening in the brain. What can we do? Schedule thirty-minute active or quiet activities so there is something to talk about. Doing activities naturally encourages conversations. These activities can involve materials already found around the home and neighborhood. For example, take a walk and talk about what you see. Pick up leaves and acorns and gather them in a bag. Search for animals getting ready for winter. Talk about who, what, when, where, why, and how questions. What colors are the leaves? Why are the squirrels scurrying around? When you make time again, children can quietly create a collage using leaves, acorns, and glue while you talk through what they are doing. When dry, tape the art on a wall or refrigerator. Praise how beautiful it is in front of others. Notice how children used their thumbs and fingers. Those muscles are building and getting ready to hold crayons and pencils correctly.
