Food on the move
Mobile meal vending is not just a passing fad By Christy Steadman
csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com Las Cazuelas Mexican restaurant in Lakewood has a 40-year history, Tony Silva said, but he “got tired of being confined to the same four walls.” So he started the Tony Guacamole Food Truck last July. The menus, however, are completely different. With the food truck, he is able to specialize in guacamole, and offers three or four different guacamole selections at any given time. “I wanted to take a staple element, like guacamole, and elevate it,” he said on a recent Thursday, his food truck parked at 38 State Brewing Co. in Littleton. In recent years, food trucks like Silva’s have been popping up with greater frequency in the south metro Denver area at breweries, special events and other venues. It’s part of a national trend. A 2012 study by Emergent Research projects the food truck industry in the United States to generate about $2.7 billion in annual revenue by 2017. That’s a fourfold increase over 2012 sales. “From a marketing perspective, the concept of a food truck is kind of brilliant,” said Andrea LaRew, president of the

The Tri-County Health Department serves Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties. On its website, it says a food truck vendor who is licensed in Denver would have to get a different license to operate in the Tri-County area. “Your Denver license is valid only in the City and County of Denver. To sell in Tri-County, you must obtain a State of Colorado Retail Food Establishment License, which authorizes you to sell anywhere in Colorado except the City and County of Denver.” Find more information at www.tchd.org/445/Food-TrucksPush-Carts
Denver’s Rick Benge joined friends Larry Franklin, of Denver, and Randall Holt, of Littleton, on the patio at 38 State the afternoon of Feb. 7. They enjoyed craft beer and raved about the fare from Brooks Smokehouse, the food truck stationed just a few yards away. The convenience factor is the single most appealing aspect of food trucks, Benge said. “But it’s good quality. I think it’s better than the fast-food chains.”

The Littleton Public Schools Board of Education would like volunteers to help interview finalists for the superintendent position on March 14. Superintendent Scott Murphy announced in October he will retire effective June 15, after 25 years with the district. As part of the process to replace him, the board is forming two interview committees made up of members of district advisory committees and employees, along with the LPS community at large. Members will participate in the interview process and serve in an advisory capacity to the board. Interested residents of the school district can apply at www.littletonpublicschools.net by Feb. 20. They must be able to attend a twohour training session on March 12 and a full day of interviews on March 14. Last fall, the Colorado Association of School Boards held a forum on what qualities a new superintendent needs. Everyone in the room agreed the new superintendent will have a lot on his or her plate. They hope the person will be forceful enough to advocate for local interests against state and federal mandates, but patient enough to listen to the community. They expect someone who will stick around for the long haul with a longterm vision, not just someone to play a transitional role. Above all, they want someone who values transparency and demands it across the district. What’s expected to be two to three finalists should be announced on Feb. 26. The public will be welcome to observe the finalist interviews, but no questions or comments will be allowed. The school board alone makes the final decision and expects to announce it by March 19. For more information, contact LPS at 303347-3376.
Lawmakers deny death legislation Concerns over reaction from state health care system By Amy Woodward
awoodward @colorado communitymedia.com
While food trucks are heading into new territory, mobile meal vending is hardly a new concept. In 1866, Charles Goodnight devised a mobile kitchen to be part of a wagon train to feed the pioneers of Western expansion. The 1900s brought field kitchens for American soldiers, Oscar Mayer’s Wiener Mobile — the first hot dog cart — ice cream
After 10 hours of emotional testimony from more than 100 witnesses, Colorado state representatives rejected the “death with dignity” bill, which would have allowed terminally ill patients to end their lives with the help of medical practitioners. Lawmakers on the Public Health Care and Human Services committee voted down the bill 8-5 on Feb. 6. “The principal of personal choice is

Playing with the dogs of war ‘Y’ was his lucky letter
World War II-era veteran Herbert Bowman, 86, talks with Red Cross volunteer Ken Yaphe about his time serving in the Army Corps of Engineers as the two men meet at the Holly Creek Retirement Community on Jan. 27. Photo by Christy Steadman Herbert Bowman, 86, joined the military on his 18th birthday on June 21, 1946. His reason for joining was to get the education package as part of the GI Bill. A person received two months of schooling for each month of service, Bowman said. “That was very attractive to me,” he said, and he later went on to earn a degree in nuclear physics. Bowman, a private in the Army Corps of Engineers, was sent to Los Alamos, N.M., a secret site where the atomic bomb was being designed and built. Although Bowman had always been a “techy,” he said, his responsibility was to train war dogs, specifically, the K9 unit that provided area security.
“It was a rather unique service,” Bowman said, and “it was about as good a duty you could ask for —playing with dogs for five or six hours a day.” There were different kinds of war dogs, which included messenger and casualty dogs. All were highly trained animals, but Bowman’s dog, King, a German shepherd, was a silent scout dog, he said, which were the highest trained and expected to perform equivalent to today’s police dogs. After the war ended, Bowman got to sit in on lectures from the country’s greatest scientists, and ironically, went back to Los Alamos to work on nuclear weapons development. — Christy Steadman

Photo by Jennifer Smith In 1944, Storekeeper First Class Paul Youngren missed being deployed with the USS Lexington by just a few letters. “Luckily for me, they started with the beginning of the alphabet,” said Youngren. Instead, he stayed at Pearl Harbor, overseeing the Navy’s shopping center. “I felt fortunate to be in a supporting role and not fighting,” he said. Pearl Harbor was still a grim scene, he said, with damage from the Japanese attack still evident and the USS Arizona still in the harbor. “They eventually had to give up trying to recover the bodies,” said Youngren. “They’re still entombed in the hull of the ship.” Even though he missed serving on the
USS Lexington, it played a large role in his military career. It carried him from San Francisco to Pearl Harbor, zigzagging all the way to avoid possible enemy submarines. “I had no problem with being seasick,” he said. “That was not the case for everybody, though.” Later, he helped decommission the aircraft carrier in a San Diego port. He was in charge of the storerooms, and collecting items that could be used elsewhere. It gave him the chance to watch pilots practice landing on the ship. “This is quite a sight to see,” he said. “As a young kid, it was exciting.” — Jennifer Smith

House Dems vote down proposed gun laws Parties divided over legislation By Amy Woodward
GUN LEGISLATION HB 1009: Repeal large ammo magazine ban: Failed in
awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com
House committee
HB 1049: Deadly force against intruders in businesses
There was a fervor for gun legislation at the State Capitol last week with seven proposed measures going through House and Senate committees. Republicans and Democrats dished out party-line votes that left both groups at an impasse on many of those bills. Five gun bills that concern permits, background checks and private firearm transfers were some of the measures heard in the House State, Veterans and Military Affairs committee. The measures predictably failed while the Senate Judiciary committee passed two gun measures with a Republican majority vote, 3-2. A House bill proposed by Rep. Janak Joshi, R-Colorado Springs, which repeals the state’s requirement for criminal background checks prior to a private gun transfer, garnered a duplicate measure in the Senate. With the House version failing, the Senate bill is expected to die as well, once it reaches the Democratic controlled House. Attempts by Republicans to reverse contentious gun laws was anticipated for The this year’s legislative session, but some Smithlawmakers were left scratching their heads at bills that have received past bin hispartisan support. San One of the Senate bills heard in comll themittee last week aimed to lift restrictions nes. on the carrying of a concealed handgun sick,”by getting rid of the permit requirement very-which was passed into law in 2003. The bill would not change existing prohibie air-tions from carrying concealed guns in ceras intain public places such as school grounds. Sen. Michael Merrifield, D-Colorado cting Springs, who sits on the Senate Judiciary gave Committee inquired about the changes to ctice the 2003 law he helped to establish. “It was a bipartisan bill,” Merrifield d. “As said. “I’m curious as to what’s wrong with what we did 14 years ago … what’s broken?”
HB 1050: Repeal Gun Transfer Background Check requirement and fee for private firearm transfers: Failed in house committee HB 1086: CBI produce certificates for gun transferees HB 1127: Reducing civil liability for businesses that permit the carrying of concealed handguns: Failed in House committee
HB 1138: Concerning concealed handgun permits; the bill allows a valid Colorado concealed handgun permit to substitute as an otherwise authorized criminal background check pursuant to the transfer of a firearm: To be heard in committee
HB 1168: Permitting the carrying of concealed handguns on public elementary and secondary school properties: To be heard in committee
Supporters and opponents alike turned out in large numbers to testify on the numerous gun laws proposed by Republicans. In the Senate Judiciary Committee, staff used remote testimony for the first time, allowing voters such as Janet Johnson of Grand Junction (pictured) to speak on proposed measures.

Accepting most major insurances
SB 32: Allows a person who legally possesses a handgun
Do You Suffer With Sciatica?
under state and federal law to carry a concealed handgun in Colorado with receiving a permit; passed in Senate committee
SB 86: duplicate of HB 1050; passed in Senate committee Proponents for the bill argued that the state’s mandatory criminal background check for gun purchases should be all that is needed to carry a concealed handgun. “This bill really doesn’t change anything except decriminalize the right to carry a concealed without a permit,” said Dudley Brown, executive director of the Rocky Mountain Gun Owners and president of the National Association for Gun Rights. The measure passed the Senate 3-2 and moved to appropriations. But if last week’s division is any indicator, the bill will not travel very far before it is voted down in the House.

Everyone served at Cafe 180 Customers can pay for meal with cash or their time By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Café 180 received an endorsement from a homeless man who said the staff provided lunch and treated him like he was a paying customer. Fred Snyder, who said his home is where he happens to hang his hat, said he was asking people for money to get something to eat when a police officer told him about Café 180. “I went to Café 180 and told them I was broke,” he said. “They said it didn’t matter and served me a really nice meal. They told me if I wanted to, I could come back as a volunteer in return for the meal. I am not a volunteering kind of guy, but I am considering volunteering there.” Café 180 is located at the corner of Broadway and Floyd in Englewood, serving lunch from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. The café is different than most restaurants because there are no prices listed for the menu
items. Paying customers are asked to pay what they feel the meal is worth, and those who can’t pay are asked to serve as volunteers in return for their meal. On Feb. 4, the café was filled with the hum of conversation and the smell of the lunch choices. Customer Melinda Percell said she stops in Café 180 for lunch whenever she is in the area. “I love this place. I love the food and I love the fact they are providing food to people who might not be getting enough to eat,” she said. “I have always enjoyed having lunch here and I have never had any menu item I didn’t enjoy. It is a great organization and they are doing a great service to the community.” In the kitchen, volunteer Richard McClung was filling orders for salads. “I live in Lakewood, but I volunteer here because I like what the café is all about,” he said. “Everyone is smiling and it is a welcoming atmosphere so it is fun to be here. It also feels good to volunteer here because I know I am providing healthy, tasty food to people who normally wouldn’t have such a nice lunch.” Suzanne Steinberg, café manager, said a friend brought her to Café 180 for the first time to have lunch, founder Cathy Matthews talked to her and two days later she was hired. “We are blessed with people who volunteer to help us keep the café operating because we have huge community support, strong church support and support from other organizations,” she said. “We have six people on a shift and four of them are volunteers.” She said on an average day, 40 to 50 people will come in for lunch. On a busy day we could see 70 or more customers at our counter. “Many people come in for the first time plus we have quite a few people who are frequent customers,” she said. “I would say the most popular items on our menu are our soups because we make two really good soups every day. Our salads are also popular as are our turkey spinach wraps.” The project has expanded and now includes a catering division and a kiosk on the 16th Street Mall in downtown Denver. “I helped start the catering division that now is located at the University of Colorado facility at Fort Logan,” said Steinberg, a Centennial resident. “We also have the outlet downtown. There are set meals and not choices like here at the café.” She said the café has purchased three food carts that are
expected to be put in place and doing business in the late spring and early summer. Steinberg said she feels the café is becoming more popular as a spot to eat lunch. “I think people enjoy the quality of the food we serve but I also think people appreciate our mission to provide good, healthy meals to people who may not be eating regularly,” she said. “We try to create a welcoming atmosphere. This is a wonderful place and we love to have people come to have lunch with us whether or not they can pay for the meal.” Sara Lesyinski, executive director, said all customers select the items they want for lunch from the café menu. “We just ask those who can pay what they feel is appropriate for the meal and we also ask those who don’t have money to sign up to volunteer here at the restaurant in return for a meal,” she said. “But everyone who walks up to our counter is served a meal.” The café opened its doors in August 2011. The basic menu has remained unchanged, offering pizza, wraps, salads and soup. The pizza and soup choices change daily. “I have watched our popularity as a place to have lunch grow in the three years I have been here,” Lesyinski said. “I think we have an average of twice as many people join us for lunch now as we did when I started.”
Cafe 180 in Englewood is open for lunch Tuesday through Saturday. Customers are asked to pay for lunch if they can, but if they can’t, they are asked to volunteer at the restaurant in return for the meal.
Customers chat and eat lunch at Cafe 180 on Feb. 4. Paying customers and volunteers come to the restaurant for lunch Tuesday through Saturday.

Judge uses kindness to get results Bonnie McLean, of Parker, appointed by governor last fall By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com Fairness, accountability and understanding reign in Bonnie McLean’s court. McLean, a Parker resident since 2001, was appointed by Gov. John Hickenlooper in September to fill a seat left vacant by the retirement of 18th Judicial District Court Judge Vincent White. She began presiding over cases in mid-January. People who find themselves on the wrong side of the law could only hope for their case to be handled by McLean. While some judges are notorious for making examples out of offenders, McLean represents the compassionate side of the bench. Her top priority is to affect positive change in the lives of those who appear before her, whether by traditional or inventive means. Instead of seeing offenders as the next name on the docket, McLean becomes fully invested in their lives, and relishes the visits she gets from former defendants who thank
her for putting them on a better track. “I don’t care if I’m in the middle of a 50-person docket,” she says. “If a former juvenile (offender) wants to stop and say ‘hi,’ I’ll take a few minutes to chat with them.” McLean worked as a clerk for a juvenile court judge while attending law school at the University of Denver, and it solidified her desire to become an attorney, as well as her passion for helping kids. She went on to serve as a deputy district attorney in the 18th Judicial District, which covers Douglas, Arapahoe, Elbert and Lincoln counties, and was appointed as county court magistrate at age 32. For the last four years, McLean McLean has been exposed to a range of different types of cases while serving as a district court magistrate. The role enabled her to focus on “problemsolving” courts, including specialized courts for drug offenders, defendants with mental health issues, and military veterans. The programs rely more on rehabilitation than incarceration. “Traditional court intervention is not always that effective in these types of cases,” she said. “This is innovative and treatment-based
and it adds an extra layer of accountability. We’re getting better results.” The programs are rooted in frequent court intervention and a series of incentives and sanctions that result in “intense behavior modification,” she says. Theresa “Traci” Slade, an 18th Judicial District Court judge, said McLean lobbied for and developed the specialty courts, which have since become a model for other agencies to follow. “She’s so patient with people, yet firm enough that she is able to convince people to make the change that they always knew they needed to make,” Slade said. Because of the staff and space needed to accommodate proceedings in the James Holmes theater shooting trial, McLean has started out at the Douglas County Justice Center handling domestic relations cases from Arapahoe County. As a district court judge, she will invariably be assigned by 18th Judicial Chief District Judge Carlos Samour to different types of cases, which she believes will make her a more well-rounded judge. Her gentle approach is a natural extension of her inviting personality. McLean is aware of the public perception that judges are no-nonsense hardliners, “but that’s not who I am, and I’m not going to change who I am.”
“I do not want people to come into my courtroom and be intimidated because I don’t think that gives us the best result,” said McLean, who at 40 is younger than most district court judges. “I try to put the litigants at ease so they feel free to open up.” That was evidenced by a recent graduation ceremony for participants in the Veterans Treatment Court. When everyone got down and gave 20, McLean was right there beside them doing push-ups in her robe. McLean’s transition into her new position as district court judge should be a smooth one because there are still a “lot of places to make that real human connection,” Slade said. “There are so many opportunities to make some significant changes in people’s lives and opportunities to change their course that you get to be involved in as a judge or a magistrate,” Slade said. “She’s perfect for this job.” For someone who “never gave a whole lot of thought to being a judge,” McLean is an example of the type of forward-thinking adjudicator who is shaping the future of substantive resolution in an arena starving for such advances. “You have to realize at the end of the day that these are people’s lives and the decisions you make affect these people’s lives,” she said. “You don’t take that lightly.”
Director of troubled Denver VA hospital to retire Reports of secret waiting list surface Associated Press The director of the veterans health care system for Denver and eastern Colorado is retiring, days after a report that a Veterans Affairs sleep clinic in Denver had a secret waiting list. Lynette Roff is stepping down, a spokesman for the VA said Feb. 3. No other details were immediately released.
Former VA employee Tommy Belinski obtained a paper waiting list — separate from the official computerized list — that could have been used to hide lengthy waits for appointments at the sleep clinic, KUSA-TV in Denver reported. The list had more than 500 names on it, Belinski said. The VA has said officials discovered an “unofficial list” in 2012 and abolished it. Dan Warvi, a spokesman for the VA in Denver, said in an email to The Associated Press that no secret list exists. Roff didn’t immediately respond
to a request for comment made through a spokesman. Investigators following up on whistleblower complaints have discovered large-scale improprieties in the way hospitals and clinics around the country scheduled veterans for appointments. Eight months ago, an audit found that 1,600 new patients had to wait 90 days or longer for appointments at eastern Colorado VA medical facilities. It wasn’t clear if the sleep clinic was included in the audit. The Colorado facilities were included in a nationwide audit on
a single day in May. All told, more than 57,000 patients faced delays of 90 days or longer. The review also indicated that 13 percent of schedulers reported being told by supervisors to falsify appointment schedules to make patient waits appear shorter. In July, the VA announced it planned to fire two supervisors and discipline four others in Colorado and Wyoming after they were accused of falsifying health care data. A veterans hospital under construction in Aurora has encountered massive cost overruns and
delays, but it wasn’t clear if Roff had any role in planning or supervising the project. U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Colo., welcomed Roff’s departure, saying veterans deserve better leadership. “She did the right thing by leaving,” he said. Coffman has asked the VA to investigate the Denver-based eastern Colorado system. Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo., described Roff’s departure as an opportunity and urged the VA to find a leader to push for better care for veterans.

Fracking ban could result in compensation Oil, gas task force offers glimpse of recommendations By Amy Woodward
awoodward @coloradocommunitymedia.com A number of members of the state House of Representatives are supporting a proposed fracking bill that will require compensation to royalty owners for the value of lost revenue not received due to local governments that elect to implement a hydrau-
lic fracturing ban. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Perry Buck, R-Windsor, awaits its hearing in the House State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee, but has accumulated co-sponsorships by 17 other Republican representatives. “Government cannot take your property without just compensation,” Buck said of her bill. It’s the first piece of legislation related to fracking to come from the General Assembly this session. Most lawmakers are waiting for recommendations from the governor’s oil and gas task force, which was
created last September, before introducing other fracking bills. Last week, the task force approved a number of proposals with a straw vote on increased local government involvement for drilling operations, which included support for permitting processes for operators that would require local government approval. The operator may seek mediation through the land dispute resolution board if a local government does not approve, and the operator may appeal to a district court if the mediation is not successful.

something I have worked for my entire career,” said Rep. Jessie Danielson, D-Wheat Ridge. “...this bill has honor in it its intent, and this was a struggle for me, but right now this bill today is not the solution.” Testimony received from people living with disabilities who stated the bill lacked any safeguards for discrimination from the state’s health care system that already provides obstacles for treatment options underscored some lawmakers votes for denial. “There just aren’t enough safeguards, especially for our most vulnerable population,” said Rep. Justin Everett, R-Jefferson County. “We have to make sure that everyone is protected.” Carrie Ann Lucas, a resident of Windsor who has multiple disabilities, including a progressive neuromuscular disease, said the passing of the Colorado Death With Dignity Act would drive insurance companies to help disabled people to die instead of getting them the help they need. “I’ve had to fight insurance denials that refuse to pay for my dental
State Rep. Kathleen Conti, R-Littleton, reacts to testimony Feb. 6 during a legislative hearing on a proposal that would give dying patients the option to seek help ending their lives. Conti voted against the measure and it was rejected 8-5.

Colorado’s bill was modeled after Oregon’s. The bill would have required dying patients who have
six months left to live to receive approval from two doctors for lethal medication. In the U.S., three states — Oregon, Washington and Vermont — have adopted similar right-to die legislation. States such as New Mexico and Montana have either ruled that it’s a patient’s constitutional right to obtain aid in dying, or, as the case in Montana, doctors are protected from writing a lethal dose prescription. Some proponents for the bill tes-
The 19-member task force will be working through the final drafts of its proposal in the coming weeks, with a pending deadline to submit its recommendations to the governor on Feb. 27. The task force will meet for the last time on Feb. 24. “After listening to the task force meetings … it gets really, really complicated,” said Rep. Su Ryden, D-Aurora. “That is probably my biggest concern with this bill, is that it would be, I think, very difficult to even try to carry out with so many unknowns involved — nobody really knows what a well is going to produce until it actually produces it.”
tified on behalf of religious views, but supporters argued the choice to end one’s live is a personal freedom. David Hibbard, a 77-year-old hospice physician who has Parkinson’s disease and lymphocytic leukemia, testified in support of the bill. Through his medical experience and education, Hibbard knows all to well what lies ahead as his illnesses progress. “I will be hunched-over, either bed bound or in a wheelchair unable to emulate because my muscles no longer work because of the Parkinson’s,” he said, his hands shaking. He will be unable to feed himself, swallow or speak. “I don’t want to endure this scenario and I certainly don’t want to have my family, my wife and three children, have to endure watching me grow through this rapid deterioration,” he said. “There are so many patients of mine that feel the same way I do, who want to have the ability and the choice to end their lives peacefully and quickly when they are actively dying and their suffering becomes intolerable.” Although lawmakers denied the bill, representatives stated the bill started a very important discussion. California and Pennsylvannia are considering right-to die laws.

Needing a ‘sorry’ may hold you back Sometimes when we hold out for an apology we become trapped in the event or episode that caused a hurt in our lives instead of freeing ourselves from the burden of carrying it around with us forever. We have all been hurt or disappointed at some point in our lives. And it has either been because of someone else, an event or situation, or something we have done to ourselves that brings on those feelings of hurt and maybe even anger. As we approach Valentine’s Day we are reminded of love. We are encouraged to remember those we love the most through cards, candy, flowers, gifts, romantic dinners and affection. And I think one of the very best ways we can demonstrate love is through forgiveness. Even though there is that old saying about love means that we never have to say we are sorry, I believe that love and forgiveness are the best way to overcome the need for an apology. Does it feel good when someone apologizes? For some it feels really good, and for others it is an uncomfortable moment, maybe even awkward. The apology may serve to ease the tension and stress that have been building and escalating over time and open up the doors of communication again. Then again, the apology could create a weird kind of “now what?” moment, leaving both parties wondering, “Where do we go from here?”
If love means never having to say you’re sorry, does that mean we just live our lives through the spirit of forgiveness? Unconditional forgiveness for those who have hurt us, events that have occurred, and ultimately and most importantly for ourselves for the mistakes, missteps, and choices we have made could trump the need for any apology. I don’t know about you, maybe you are someone who really needs to hear the apology, I know I used to be that way too. I used to use the words or phrases like, “I need an apology,” “I want an apology,” or “I expect an apology.” I am not sure what I was really looking to gain. I came to realize it was either one of two things; I either wanted to other person to show remorse and feel bad for what they had done, or I needed to feed my own ego by being the one who deserved and received the apology. Both were extremely unhealthy for me
as I never felt good with either outcome, as a matter of fact, sometimes I even felt worse. Freedom is birthed through forgiveness as we learn to absolutely forgive others and ourselves at the very core of who we are. There is nothing that anyone can do to me or that I can do to myself where I will allow that situation to hold me hostage from my happiness. Does this mean I will forget the event or circumstance? Absolutely not, but forgiving is very different than forgetting. By not forgetting I can learn from the experience and make decisions about my future where I can potentially avoid the same kind of hurt. And by forgiving, completely and unconditionally forgiving, I am free to enjoy every other aspect of my life. So for Valentine’s Day my hope is that you will all enjoy the flowers, candy, cards and romantic gestures and that your ultimate demonstration of love this year will be the spirit of true forgiveness. How about you, are you enjoying the many benefits and freedom of forgiveness? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we allow forgiveness to trump apologies, it really will be a better than good week.

Something a little unsettling about applause Please hold your applause. On the final day of the term at my alma mater, professors were applauded at the end of the lecture. The enthusiasm in the applause, and the duration of it, were directly related to the appreciation the students wanted to express for the quality of the professor as an educator. Sometimes there was polite applause and sometimes there were standing ovations. One near-legendary philosophy professor invariably got a standing ovation. It went on and on. Remembering that this morning made me wonder where applause, applauding and clapping come from. Why not some other expression of approval, like grunting? I can answer the first part, but not the second part, although I have a pretty good idea. Applause, generally, is a pleasant sound. Grunting admirers may have worked after Moog brought down a pterodactyl. But it wouldn’t work after the Colorado Symphony performed Mozart. Like so many things, it all began with ancient Romans. They had a “set ritual” of applause for public performances, which expressed “degrees of approval.” It included waving the flap of the toga, which sounds like Groucho, Chico and Harpo. There are countless variations, and applauding can be accompanied, with foot stomping, for example. Applause can precede, interrupt, or follow an appearance or performance — or all three. Robin Williams would be introduced on
Letterman, and the applause was loud and long. Then he would say something unbelievably witty, and there would be more applause. When his segment ended, there would be more of the same. That wouldn’t go over so well in church. Or in a classical music concert. You’re supposed to wait until the end of the entire work. But if you haven’t been to a classical music concert before, you might not know that, and make a boob out of yourself. Is applause ever annoying? Yes. It’s one of the reasons why I can’t watch the State of the Union address. Someone always keeps score, and the number of times the President is interrupted with applause is in the papers the next day. Half the time, the applause seems insincere. Perhaps because half of the audience is playing for the other team. Slow clapping can mean two things. The audience is displeased, for one, or in films, it can be a crescendo from slow to furious, to signal a dramatic turning point (“Napoleon Dynamite”).
Can applause be derisive? Yes. Earlier this basketball season, my alma mater fell behind to Kentucky, 24-0, before finally scoring. I knew exactly what was coming. Derisive applause. Some of us are applauded more than others, and some perhaps never at all. I have been, and it always makes me a little uncomfortable. For others, it would be uncomfortable if there were no applause. I took a few classes with dud professors, and I almost cringed when the time came to give our approval rating. The sound of one hand clapping. One of the most interesting after effects of sustained applause is the encore. I have been to concerts — Fleetwood Mac in Phoenix — that have had three or four encores. You needed hand lotion afterwards. I can tell you right now that this column is not going to get a standing ovation. It’s informative, but there is very little amusement in it, or unusual insights. But for once, there is no sarcasm, no facetiousness, no borderline nonsense. However, I am not above pandering. Don’t we live in the greatest state in the country? You bet we do. The purplish mountains and the sunny sunshine, not to mention the babbling Platte. It really is heaven on earth. (Columnist exits to polite applause.)

Time for feds to reimburse Colorado Coloradans, perhaps more than anyone else, appreciate the beauty and adventure of the great outdoors, the innovation and job creation that come with a $600 billion recreation economy, and the importance of preserving our national treasures. Nearly one-third of our state is federal land, and we have more national parks than 46 other states. This year we are celebrating the 100th anniversary of one of those parks. Whether you’re climbing Longs Peak, watching the elk during the fall rut, or just driving Trail Ridge Road, Rocky Mountain National Park offers some of the best hiking, scenery and wildlife viewing that Colorado has to offer. It’s no wonder almost 3 million people visited the park in 2013. And Colorado’s national parks are seri-
ous business. In Colorado, more than 5 million people visited our parks spending more than $330 million and supporting nearly 5,000 jobs in 2013 alone. Nationwide, more than 273 million visitors spent about $14.6 billion in the surrounding communities.
Unfortunately, the national park system was caught up in the dysfunction of Washington. When Congress shut down the federal government in 2013, the national parks closed along with almost everything else. More than 400 parks and monuments across the nation, employing more than 20,000 Americans, were forced to close their gates. Fortunately, six states — Arizona, New York, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah and our own home state — advanced the National Park Service $2 million to temporarily reopen iconic parks like Rocky Mountain National Park, the Grand Canyon, Mount Rushmore and the Statue of Liberty. After 16 days, Congress managed to Bennett continues on Page 9

trucks, taco stands and kebab vans. The food truck craze was in motion. By 2008, the Kogi Korean BBQ food truck began tweeting its location to serve its Korean-Mexican fusion cuisine to the clientele of the hottest spots in Los Angeles. And in June 2014, the National Food Truck Association was formed. “Mobile vending has seen a monumental shift in the past five years,” says the organization’s website, www.nationalfoodtrucks. org. “What was an underground and unseen industry has become one of the fastest growing trends in food service.”
The next generation
Today’s food trucks feature new and creative twists. And they are a fun way to serve good food, said Jack Doyle, owner of BTO Frozen Yogurt in Highlands Ranch. “It’s about as close to your customers as you can get,” he said. Doyle’s YoMobile — a mini version of the store on wheels — was at about 100 public events last summer, including weddings and fundraisers, school, corporate, sporting and community events. People love having food trucks at large community events, said Cindy Shoemaker, the Highlands Ranch Community Association’s events coordinator. The organization’s annual events can attract thousands of people, she said, so it’s great to be able to offer guests a variety of specialty food options. “They’re not the main draw to the events, but a great complement to them,” Shoemak-

Food trucks provide an atmosphere of excitement, said Larry Galves, operations manager for Manna from Heaven Gourmet Food Truck & Catering, which serves the Denver area. “This is especially true when multiple trucks are parked together, creating a mobile food court,” he said. Doyle takes prides that the YoMobile of-
fers a condensed, but the same, service as his frozen yogurt shop. But some vendors prefer to have just their food truck or just their brick-and-mortar restaurant, he said. “There’s lots of restaurant (owners) that get into the food truck business,” Doyle said, “and vice versa.”
A perfect pairing
Food trucks partnering with breweries — and in the south metro area, this pairing can be found at several establishments — benefits everybody, said Jason Stockmyer, marketing and service manager for 38 State. It is a good thing for the brewery’s patrons not to drink on an empty stomach, he said, so the establishment features a different food truck every Wednesday through Saturday. In fact, 38 State never wanted to have a kitchen, Stockmyer said. It is a dog-friendly establishment, which means health codes would not permit it to have a kitchen, he said, plus there is less overhead cost by not having the additional staff. “We’re about the brew, and there’s not a shortage of food trucks,” Stockmyer said. Vendors with food trucks generally have

They have to have a passion for food, yet they also have to love people. “When you have a get-together at your home, it is common that everybody gathers around the kitchen. So, we bring the kitchen to you,” Galves said. “We like bringing food to the public. We get to participate in, or create, the party instead of waiting for the party to come to us.”

Striving for Moe better barbecue Moe’s Original Bar B Que in Englewood serves unique Southern soul food, said the Mobile BBQ Pit’s owner Jay Grantham, and it’s all made from scratch. The food truck only caters to large private or public events. “Everything we do has to be guaranteed money before we even move the truck,” Grantham said. This is because the meats they serve are cooked for up to 20 hours. The truck has special equipment for temperature regulation, so everything is prepared

end the manufactured crisis. However, the states that stepped up to foot the bill were never repaid. That’s why we are teaming up with Republican senators including Cory Gardner, Jeff Flake, John McCain, Lamar Alexander and others to sponsor the National Park Access Act. This bipartisan bill will ensure that states are reimbursed for the funds they spent to temporarily reopen national parks during the shutdown. For Colorado, the shutdown couldn’t have come at worse time. It fell during one of Rocky Mountain National Park’s peak seasons, as visitors flocked to see the changing aspen leaves. Worse, communities like Estes Park, which rely on the tourism, were still reeling from devastating flooding. While Congress was wasting time in endless debates, Coloradans were dealing with an unprecedented natural disaster. An entire year of rain fell in one
at the restaurant and loaded onto the truck for the event, he said. It’s very sought after, he added, and the food truck stays booked. Wayne Forst is a regular patron of Moe’s Original BBQ because they serve “delicious barbecue.” “I choose Moe’s because I know I enjoy their food. Their pulled pork is excellent,” he said. “(And) their prices are reasonable.” — Christy Steadman
day, damaging more than 18,000 homes, forcing tens of thousands of Coloradans to evacuate, and tragically killing 10 people. The revenue generated by the visitors to the legendary park was crucial in helping Estes Park rebuild following the catastrophic destruction. Thankfully, Colorado intervened to keep the gates open when Congress couldn’t get their act together to pass a funding bill for the year. From the Great Sand Dunes to Mesa Verde to Rocky Mountain, our national parks are not only one of the most valuable legacies we can pass on to the next generation, but are also key economic drivers for towns and cities throughout Colorado and the nation. Thankfully in a time of crisis, our state took the necessary steps to keep the park gates open and support recovering communities. It’s about time that the federal government kept its promise and reimbursed Colorado and other states, and our bill will make certain that happens. Democrat Michael Bennet has represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate since 2009.

Bang-up year for museum Many gifts were received through successful 2014 By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com As the Denver Art Museum begins a new year, it has issued a report on important acquisitions in the past year — most of them gifts. • The largest gift ever given to the museum leads the list. On Jan. 13, 2014, the announcement was made that Denver philanthropist Frederic C. Hamilton, the museum’s chairman emeritus for whom the new building is named, made a bequest of 22 impressionist masterworks from his own collection. Included: Van Gogh’s “Edge of a Wheat Field with Poppies,” the first Van Gogh in the collection. There are also four works by Monet, three paintings by Boudin — also a first in the DAM collection — and one by Cezanne — another first. Works by Manet, Moriset, Pissaro, Renoir, Sisley, Chase and Hassam are included. • The Architecture, Design and Graphics Department acquired furniture by British designer Faye Toogood — the first museum to acquire her work. It also was given floor tiles and flatware by Gio Ponti, who designed the North Building. • The Asian Art Department acquired three Japanese woodblock prints, including “Today’s Special” by Masami Teraoka. Curator Ronald Otsuka retired at the end of 2013 and this print was in his final exhibition: “At the Mirror: Reflections of Japan in 20th Century Prints.” Other Asian artworks were acquired or given in his honor. • The Modern and Contemporary Art Department received “A Beautiful Fall” by Joseph Stashkevetch and “White Rose” by Agnes Martin, which will be exhibited in May in “Showing Off: Recent Contemporary Acquisitions.” • The Native Arts Department added to all three collecting areas: American Indian, Africa and Oceania, including 25 katsina figures, four Micmac quilled boxes, 12 contemporary ceramic works and seven west African textiles.
Elitch Lanes owner Cal Eichinger is striking out to Arvada after the original bowling alley on Tennyson Street closes on May 17. When I spoke to Eichinger about the popular bowling spot’s closing after losing its lease, he told me that he was zoning in on a new location (sadly) outside of Denver’s city limits. “We’re going to take a bunch of our equipment, paint the inside just like Elitch Lanes,” Eichinger told Westword. “We’re going to make it feel as much like Elitch Lanes as we can and operate it with our philosophy — which is F.U.N. We don’t take it seriously.” The new Elitch Lanes will open at 10000 Ralston Road in Arvada, in the former Western Bowl. Eichinger — who has been in the bowling business for 40 years and has spent well over a decade as Elitch Lanes’ owner — says his new place is going to look and feel just like the old spot. “Most bowling centers still have some core business, based on traditional league bowlers that take bowling too seriously,” Eichinger said. “They treat it like a ‘win at all costs’ game and it’s like, really? We’re all amateurs. We like fun.” To honor the good times at the old location, Elitch Lanes will be having a weekend blowout celebration before its May 18 opening in the new spot. The original Elitch Lanes at 3825 Tennyson St. is open through May 17. The closing celebration will be from May 15 through May 17 with a $40 per person rate for all you can eat, drink and bowl from 6 to 9 p.m. or 9 p.m. to midnight daily. The new Elitch Lanes at 10000 Ralston Road in Arvada will open for business May 18. For more information, visit www.elitchbowling.com or call 303-477-1633.

Town Hall exhibits four artists’ work Littleton show is good fit with theme of play By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com
With the musical “Next to Normal,” about a family struggling to stay focused, running on stage, “The Art of Focus” would seem an appropriate title for a related art show. The exhibit runs through March 25 at the Stanton Gallery in Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center. Artists Jean Caggiano, Ugljesa Janjic, Sherry Sherman and Jam Wong exhibit their work at Town Hall, with a public meet-the-artists reception planned for Feb. 20 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Caggiano, a Colorado resident for more than 25 years, worked with color and composition as a graphic artist and has studied painting and color theory at the Art Students League of Denver. She has exhibited in ASL’s annual Summer Art Market for the past five years, as well in juried and invitational shows at Republic Plaza in downtown Denver, Lone Tree Arts Center, Curtis Arts and Humanities Center and Madden Museum in Greens on wood Village, and Children’s Hospital Colorado in Aurora. e Her oil paintings “capture the humble ing beauty of the vegetable,” she writes. “I’ll g in often go to the produce section searchning for the next subject to paint … quite often the subject chooses me.” She blurs the distinction between realism and abitch straction. Her titles illustrate a sense of e humor: “Beets Me” or “Kindred Spears.” h Janjic’s story begins with his birth in r Belgrade, Serbia in 1958 and his arrival in take the U.S. to attend the University of Washington’s architectural program in Seattle. “At that time, watercolor was the preferred medium for architectural illustrao tion because of its rapid application and 0 as efficiency.” He writes that he has “meandered ce through many jobs — from urban pland ome ning to graphic design, architecture and gue interior design — and through three cony,” tinents and multiple cultures …” A constant has been a wish to express at

He writes of the precise timing needed for watercolor and how that suits his personality. Since 2001, he has lived in the Front Range of Colorado, in Gunbarrel, between Boulder and Longmont. He belongs to the Colorado Watercolor Society and the American Institute of Architects. Pastel painter Sherman started drawing at age 2, imitating her mother — and continued to draw and paint through school and college years (Oberlin, Stanford, Harvard.) She then embarked on a career in law, with drawing “confined to ballpoint pen drawings on legal pads” until the new millennium arrived and she realized she needed more art in her life.
“Pastels suit me for their immediacy, vibrancy of color and the direct experience of application they provide.

Buntport offers its take on Colorado history ‘Yesterado’ is treat for schoolchildren By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com The always-imaginative Buntport Theater members have an education division, as
well as the basic playwriting/producing core members. Actors take fine-tuned productions about history, mythology and language out into the community for schoolchildren. “Yesterado,” a Buntport take on Colorado history, will be presented at 10 a.m. Feb. 23 to 26 at Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., Lone Tree. Buntport writers combed through pulp newspapers from the 1890s for interesting characters and gossipy tales.
Charming Jack “Father of Colorado Theater” Langrishe and tightrope walker Marietta Ravel, performers who destroy con man Soapy Smith’s scam, usher children through their unique version of Colorado History. Margaret “Molly” Brown had a rocky trip from the Colorado mines into Denver’s social scene, where she was snubbed by the “sacred 36” and campaigned for women’s rights. Denver cyclist Dora Roberts, who set national bicycling records in the 1890s, fueled
a controversy over whether women should wear pants. Two Longmont folks had a front page faceoff over who had rights to do what in the new state of Colorado. Westward migration, different cultures and a start-up government will be addressed in this 55-minute production, suitable for grades K-6.

Culinary Colorado blog. Here’s what Food Network said: “Denver may be better known for snow bunnies than snow peas, but Chef Lon Symensma (who cut his teeth at Buddakan, Spice Market and Jean Georges Shanghai) is making a name for himself at his modern upscale bistro in the lively LoDo district, where he presents wildly creative Southeast Asianinspired dishes such as bacon ‘thrice fried rice’ carbonara. He’s also managed to turn the traditional Asian soup dumpling on its head. Inspired by the classic French onion soup, Symensma fills his dumplings with sweet caramelized onions, melted Gruyere cheese and a sherry-infused broth that bursts when you bite into them.” Not to take anything away from ChoLon’s delightful dumplings, but also try TAG restaurant’s take on the French onion soup dumpling and let me know which dumpling does it for you.

tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com
Arapahoe couldn’t find the range, but Mullen was on target as the Mustangs bested the Warriors 64-44 in league boys basketball action Feb. 4. “We are a young team, but honestly, we weren’t ready to go tonight and you can’t win if you do that against a good team that plays hard the way Mullen plays,” Arapaogan.hoe Coach Brad Jensen said after the game l, “We had three games in a row we felt very n the good about the way we played. That wasn’t oet” the case tonight because we just didn’t play n of well.” a After the Feb. 4 game, Arapahoe is 6-12 are overall and 1-8 in league. The Warriors had order a home game Feb. 11 against Overland and are at home Feb. 13 against Smoky Hill before going on the road to Cherry Creek on Feb 18. The Feb. 4 game was a battle from the open tipoff. Both teams shot well early, and nd a buzzer-beating basket helped put Mullen s a up 13-9 at the end of the first period. teBoth teams played a fast-pace style and a Mullen’s accuracy from outside combined He iswith successful drives to the hoop helped ling the Mustangs build on their advantage as his they led 28-16 at halftime and 43-29 at the end of the third period. or Fouls called on Arapahoe frequently put ur Mustang players at the free throw line late uth in the third period and all of the fourth pes riod. Throughout the game, Mullen hit just a- about 18 of 22 charity shots to add to points scored from the field to win, 64-44. off “One problem was we didn’t shoot very well,” Jansen said. “We shot 18 percent from 3-point range plus 34 percent from twopoint range. We came here tonight and laid an egg. We need to learn from tonight and

He also led the team in rebounds with seven. “It was a lot of banging under the basket but that is part of the game and I try to play through it,” he said after the game. “I am on the post so a lot of my shots are inside. But I am working on my outside shot a little bit because I want to add that to my arsenal

Fourth-quarter confidence carries Creek girls Bruins pour it on in final minutes to get wins By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Not a single Cherry Creek player raised her hand with four fingers pointed up to indicate the fourth quarter was about to start. However, the Bruins’ girls have become a team this season that seems to play better in the final eight minutes of games. That was the case Feb. 6 when the Bruins outscored Mullen 20-8 in the fourth quarter to earn a 59-42 Centennial League victory over Mullen in the Mustangs’ Hutchison Fieldhouse. “We’ve done that the whole year,” said Bruins coach Chris Curneen. “We play really good at the end of games. It’s kind of been our goal. We just kind of feel each other out, and once my girls figure out what they’re doing in the fourth quarter they kind of take
over.” Cherry Creek’s fourth-quarter surge against Mullen helped the Bruins improve to 10-0 in the league with four regular season games remaining and a two-game lead heading into the stretch run. “Next two games are at home, which is a great advantage for us,” said Curneen. “And then we play Arapahoe on the road and Smoky Hill on the road.” Creek, coming off an emotional overtime win over rival Grandview, will need to shoot better in its remaining contests. The Bruins shot 24 percent for the game and led 39-34 going into the final quarter. However, Creek hit six of eight field goals in the fourth period to pull away from the Mustangs and sealed the victory by going six-for-10 from the foul line in the final 3:08 while using a four-corners offensive set. Molly Rohrer, the Bruins’ 6-foot-1 senior, scored 21 points including eight in the fourth stanza. Sophomore Laura Pranger finished with 15 points and had eight in the final quarter.
“Our shots just weren’t falling and we were starting to get a little frustrated,” confessed Rohrer. “We just had to keep going to the boards and keep defending because that was the only way we were going to get out of that funk. “We all started to realize we needed to start finishing in order to pull this game out. It was back and forth the whole game. We were just more focused and more aggressive in the fourth quarter.” Rohrer, who hit the game winning layup as the overtime expired in a Feb 4 win over rival Grandview, feels it took some time get the intensity back against Mullen. “We were relived to just have beaten that tough team (Grandview),” added Rohrer. “In my opinion they are our biggest competition in the league. We weren’t taking the Mullen game as serious as we should have. “We can’t take any of these next four teams lightly. We have to take every game seriously and play as hard as we can and keep getting better so that when we go into the playoffs not only can we go in as league
champs but go in feeling confident in what we’ve been building.” Cherry Creek was 3-6 heading into the Christmas break but now have a 13-6 record and have won 10 consecutive games. “Before Christmas we had some new pieces we had to add this year,” said Curneet. “Brittanee (Bivins) and my freshman Sydney (Mech) didn’t play until the first of January because she was out with an injury. She adds a lot to the team. “We were just generally inexperienced coming into the year. Players like Allison (Dwinnell) and Hannah (Colter) have grown over the course of the year, and now they are comfortable. It nice to have a senior leader like Molly. And, we’ve grown together as a team.” Creek plays Eaglecrest Feb. 11, Overland Feb. 13, Arapahoe Feb. 18 and Smoky Hill Feb. 20. Those teams have a combined 14-26 Centennial record but the Arapahoe game will be tough. The Warriors beat the Bruins in the finals of a holiday tournament but lost to Creek in a league game.
