Schools: Assessing threat can be difficult Advisory committee continues work on safety, mental health Residents view a project schedule and the results of noise impact analyses related to the addition of toll lanes on C-470 between I-25 and Kipling Street.

Widening to worsen C-470 noise Meetings aim to inform about sound levels By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com With a growing population comes more traffic, and with that comes lane expansions and added noise. The Colorado Department of Transportation had two open houses at the Highlands Ranch Metro District headquarters Feb. 10 and 11 to present its analysis of traffic noise generated by C-470, which is being widened by two and, in some places, three toll lanes starting in 2016. CDOT researched noise levels during “worst-case scenario” travel hours and peak traffic times, and projected what those numbers will be when the entire widening is completed around 2018, said Jon Chesser, environmental project manager for CDOT. Officials presented the numbers to homeowners who live near the interstate, along with recommendations to mitigate the increased noise, during the open houses. The second night drew more than 60 people who had questions pertaining to everything from how the studies were conducted to what impacts the noise might have on home values. Any homeowners exposed to sound below 66 decibels are considered not impacted by traffic noise, Chesser said, citing state and federal standards. Those who are affected will have the opportunity to vote on whether they want a noise barrier, such as a wall or berm, and a vote of 50 percent in favor is required to build a barrier. The extent of mitigation measures will also be weighed against con-
struction costs. Some residents were upset that their homes were not within the zone that recommended noise abatement features. That included William Berg, who bought his home on Mallard Place, near Colorado Boulevard and Venneford Ranch Road, just six months ago. He was attending his first public meeting about the widening Feb. 11 after receiving a letter and postcard from the state. Berg, whose top concern is noise, was surprised to find there was no recommendation for a wall or berm behind his house on the poster boards at the meeting, despite his proximity to C-470. “Even though my house backs up directly to 470 and it’s going to expand closer to my house with more traffic, I’m not a candidate for noise mitiga-

tion,” he said, before pointing out homes on an enlarged map that appeared to be an equal distance or farther from the lanes of traffic that will have the option. Berg was unaware of the plans to add the toll lanes to C-470 before purchasing his home and said he is considering selling before the project starts. Others who carefully eyed the maps at the open houses were glad to see noise barriers recommended for their area of the heavily used corridor. Ray and Mary Gutkowski, who moved into the Villas at Verona near C-470 and Santa Fe Drive more than a year ago, pointed at a wall that has been suggested as a buffer between the development and the highway. Ray Gutkowski pointed out that traffic noise will also be blocked by four-story buildings on the development’s south end. They are not concerned about a drop in property value because they believe the value is “based on the property itself,” not its proximity to C-470, Mary Gutkowski said. Numerous experts in fields from sound acoustics to civil engineering were on hand to answer questions from homeowners at the Feb. 11 open house. It was the latest meeting in what has thus far been a twoand-a-half-year outreach effort to include the public.

jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com What would you do if your 5-year-old brought home an assignment that said he was going to “bloe” up his teacher and the school, when the child can’t even spell the word “blow” right? It’s an actual dilemma Littleton Public Schools has faced. Should administrators deem him a risk? Conduct a threat assessment? Alert parents? Recommend counseling? Call in law enforcement? “Threat assessment is difficult, because it can be very subjective,” Nate Thompson, director of social, emotional and behavior services for the district, told members of the Safety and Mental Health Advisory Committee on Feb. 11. After the Arapahoe High School shooting, Thompson said, the district called in a nationally recognized security professional, John Nicoletti, to review its processes. One change made as a result is that a district-level team now reviews every single incident report each week, trying to identify trends and monitor individual students, even if the student switches schools. “It’s really us trying to connect the dots across the district,” Thompson said. After Columbine, LPS implemented procedures modeled on those used by the FBI and Secret Service, as well as public-health agencies, he said. “But you will not be able to predict all the violence that’s out there, you just won’t,” he said. “That’s the nature of mental illness.” Thompson and Melissa Cooper, director of special education and student support services, outlined for the group the voluminous measures the district tries to take. Many are mandated by the state or federal government, such as data collection and reporting. Many go above and beyond, such as specific intervention tools like bully-proofing or suicideprevention programs like Yellow Ribbon. Threat continues on Page 9
Health alliance wins Hearts for Hope SMHA recognizes standouts By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Hope, says Carol Jeanotilla, is all in your head, and that’s perfectly OK. “It really is all in our minds, but in the best possible way,” she told those who attended the South Metro Health Alliance’s Hearts for Hope luncheon on Feb. 12. “Our minds and bodies connect with each other via our emotions. It’s part of why outlook is such a critical part of healing.” Jeanotilla had been a registered nurse for 20 years when what she calls a “big ol’ midlife crisis” hit. She traded in her stethoscope for sculptor’s tools, and found her life’s calling. When a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis threatened to take it away, she fought back in, literally, a big way. “I had to see this as a chance,” she said during the luncheon, held at The Fran-

Cookies for the digital age FIND A COOKIE
By Christy Steadman csteadman @colorado communitymedia.com Girl Scouts are learning a whole new set of skills this year with the rollout of the digital cookie. Girl Scout cookie sales began on Feb. 8, and this year, along with the traditional selling methods of door-to-door and booths at local businesses, people can now purchase cookies online. The digital cookie is meant to supplement each girl’s sale, said AnneMarie Harper, public relations director for Girl Scouts of Colorado. “We don’t expect the digital cookie to replace traditional sales,” Harper said. “(But) it’s another tool in their toolbox to help them meet their goals.” Girl Scouts learn a number of valuable skills from selling cookies, she said, and the face-to-face interaction with the public is still a key part. However, with the digital cookie, new skills are introduced. For example, Harper said, each girl designs her own website, and they are encouraged to personalize it. The girls can upload a video with their own “cookie-pitch” to market their product, she said, plus they can track their online sales. “Online sales are good if people are from out-of-state,” said Kaylee Eubanks, an 8-year-old Girl Scout in Highlands Ranch. “This way, you can get the cookies delivered to more people,” added her sister, Taylor Eubanks, 12, also a Girl Scout. Digital cookie is a friends-and-family sale. A person has to know a Girl Scout in order to receive an emailed invite that includes a link to the girl’s website, said Kim Foster, Girl Scout leader for troop 3869 in Highlands Ranch. “Girl Scouts keeps it as safe and secure as possible,” she said. The girls’ safety is the No. 1 priority,
Girl Scout cookies are on sale across Colorado from Feb. 8 through March 15. The new digital cookie program allows Girl Scouts to make friends and family sales online. Customers must get an invite to shop at a girl’s personal website. To find when and where cookies are being sold at local businesses in the community, visit www.girlscoutsofcolorado.org and use the Cookie Locator by entering a ZIP code where prompted. The Cookie Locator is also available as a mobile app. What the Girl Scouts are saying: “I like selling cookies because I like to see everybody smile. Cookies make people smile.” — McKenna Foster, 13. “It’s fun to sell cookies. It’s nice to wave to people when you’re selling.” — Mary Shannon Foster, 7. “The best part is the joy that people get when they open their front door and see you with all the cookies.” — Taylor Eubanks, 12
With the rollout of the digital cookie, Girl Scouts now have a new tool to reach their goal of cookie sales. The digital cookie is an optional program for girls to sell to friends and family online. Photo illustration Harper added, and girls are not permitted to post personal information on their website, plus parents are encouraged to help monitor it. Additionally, the link ensures the individual girl gets credit for her online sales, Harper said, and “people can be assured the money stays here in Colorado,” even if the sale comes from another state. “The digital cookie allows all friends and family a way to support their Girl Scout,” she said. Digital cookie is an optional program, but it is something Girl Scouts across America have been asking for, Harper said. It has been in development for the past couple of years, she said, and although sales have only been open for about a week, as of Feb. 13, it has been very popular. “We’re excited that the girls are excited,” Harper said. “And we’re excited to see what they do with it.”

Big projects cause school shuffle LPS bond issue pays for work starting in spring By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Littleton Public Schools will look like a giant game of musical chairs starting in the spring. “This is not a building-to-building move, it’s a district move, and it’s going to affect everybody,” said Terry Davis, LPS director of operations and maintenance. “If it doesn’t affect you this year, it will eventually.” The reason is that a lot of the big projects made possible by the $80 million bond issue voters approved in 2013 are getting underway, starting with the replacement of the roof at Damon Runyon Elementary School in May. That will necessitate moving the Runyon kids to the Whitman building at the Options campus, currently occupied by the Options middle-schoolers. They will move in with the Options high-schoolers, supplemented by five portables. The district has yet to figure out what to do with Transitions, a job-readiness program for 16- to 25-year-olds housed in the Options high school. “We’re trying desperately to find a permanent home for them,” said Davis, with possibilities including a storefront or other non-district building. Moving day will be May 22, which means
the kids will get an extra day of spring break. Movers will swarm Runyon, loading up everything as efficiently as possible, said Davis, to the point of wrapping up bookshelves with the books still in them. If all goes well, the buildings will be ready to welcome the kids back on May 28. They’ll stay there until the whole process is reversed over winter break. “It seems like it’s a huge jigsaw puzzle,” said LPS board president Jack Reutzel. Lots more juggling will happen over the summer, with major work at 10 schools necessitating moves for office staff and daycare programs. “We know that moving to a temporary location is an inconvenience, and we are making every effort to make the temporary moves as smooth as possible,” wrote Diane Doney, assistant superintendent of business services, in a letter to parents. Residents in the LPS district passed the bond issue by about 60 percent of the vote in November 2013, and the revenue can legally only be used for capital improvements like building maintenance and infrastructure. Because of the age of the buildings, Doney said there is a large budget for asbestos abatement, which has to be performed when there are no students inside. Most of the asbestos is in the glue that holds tiles to floors and ceilings, she said. Some of the work, like a new elevator at Newton Middle School, will bring the district into compliance with ADA require-

ments updated since 2002. Other items will help LPS meet various other federal regulations — technology upgrades to accommodate online testing and new lunch-service tables to meet nutrition standards, for example.
Other improvements throughout the district include HVAC, flooring, fire systems, roofing, repairs, plumbing, grounds repairs, lighting, electrical and ADA compliance. All work is expected to be done by August 2017.

eConstruction-defects legislation introduced Staff and wire report A simmering dispute over liability in home construction is heating up at the state Legislature. A bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced a bill Feb. 10 that addresses the construction-defects law. The law governs how homeowners can sue builders for shoddy construction. “Currently, there is a defect in state law preventing Coloradans from access to affordable housing such as condominiums,” Senate Majority Leader Mark Scheffel, R- Parker, said in an emailed statement. “Coloradans need more affordable housing and this bipar-
tisan legislation is an important step toward achieving that goal. It’s vital that we reach across the aisle and work together on the issues facing Colorado and I’m Report proud to join Sen. Jesse Ulibarri in sponsoring and advocating for this important legislation.” Developers say Colorado’s law, passed in 2005, has created a litigious environment and makes it expensive to get insurance, chilling development and contributing to a housing
shortage. Consumer advocates fear that reform efforts would push the needle too far in favor of developers. Condos represent just 3 percent of new housing starts in Colorado, compared to 23 percent in 2007, according to the Homeownership Opportunity Alliance, a coalition of Colorado businesses groups and community leaders. That leaves a lack of alternatives to either buying a single-family home or renting an apartment. “We would obviously like to see more diverse housing, having more opportunities for buyers and not having folks forced into
Capitol
the rental market,” said Loren Furman, senior vice president of state and federal affairs for the Colorado Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Some metro-area cities are tackling the issue on their own. Lakewood passed an ordinance in October. Lone Tree passed an ordinance Feb. 17, and Castle Rock is considering it if legislation isn’t passed at the state level. In addition to Scheffel and Ulibarri, DWestminster, SB 177 is sponsored by state Reps. Brian DelGrosso, R-Loveland, and Jonathan Singer, D-Longmont. — Colorado Community Media reporter Amy Woodward and the Associated Press contributed to this report.

BE INVOLVED GIVE – The B.I.G. Day 2015
Area nonprofits and hundreds of Chamber volunteers working together or joining forces makes for a good mix…. and that’s the goal for the 5th Annual B.I.G Day, set for Saturday, April 25th from 8:30 – 12:00. B.I.G stands for “Be Involved, Give.” The motivation for this event, sponsored
by the South Metro Denver Chamber’s Nonprofit & Business Partnership Committee, is to provide assistance to member nonprofits by introducing them to the people and businesses that live and work in their communities. Last year’s B.I.G. Day volunteers did everything from planting the community garden at Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield, to trail clean-up with the South Suburban Park Foundation to sorting and loading medical supplies with Project CURE. Many projects allow young children to help when accompanied by an adult - a great way to teach community involvement. Slots for non-profits to take part in this year’s event are filling up fast. Those
interested in participating, please contact Laurian Horowitz, Laurian@ColoradoLiveLessons.com. Who can volunteer? Companies & businesses, their staff, friends, family, and kids! Everyone can participate. In addition, community organizations (schools, churches, sports teams) and individuals are all encouraged. What type of volunteer activities will be offered?

Drug incidents rise in Colorado schools Uneven state data doesn’t specify substances behind numbers By Katie Kuntz
Rocky Mountain PBS I-News The first months of legal recreational marijuana in Colorado saw a jump in drug policy violations in the state’s public schools, a Rocky Mountain PBS I-News analysis of Department of Education data has found. The biggest spike in violations came in the state’s middle schools, according to the analysis. The first months of legal recreational marijuana coincided with the winter and spring of the 2013-14 school year. “Middle-schoolers are most vulnerable to being confused about marijuana,” said Dr. Christian Thurstone, attending physician for the Denver Health Adolescent Substance Abuse Treatment program. “They think, `Well, it’s legal so it must not be a problem.’” In many cases, marijuana is simply more available to younger teens, officials say. “We have seen parents come in and say, `Oh that’s mine, they just took it out of my room,’ and that sort of thing,” said school resource officer Judy Lutkin of the Aurora Police Department. “Parents have it in their houses more often, and the kids just can take it from home.” The hike in drug violations came as overall suspensions, expulsions and referrals to police for other transgressions decreased between the year of legalization and the previous academic year, 2012-13. The I-News analysis found: • Middle schools had the highest percentage increase in drug violations, rising 24 percent in the school year ending last spring. This led to a decade high of 951 drug incidents in middle schools. • Drug incidents reported by all public schools hit a decade high last school year, rising 7.4 percent to 5,377 incidents. There are more drug violations in high schools, but those numbers stayed flat during the first year of legalization. • Statewide, since medical marijuana stores opened widely in 2010, drug incidents are the only major category of conduct violations that rose in Colorado school districts, according to the data.
Details hard to come by
Still, it’s hard to discern the specific types of drugs involved in the increased number of reports, as statewide policies to measure and extrapolate teen use of marijuana and other drugs are often inconsistent and unreliable. In fact, the data collected by the Colorado Department of Education does not identify any specific drugs. Instead, this data lumps prescription drugs, heroin, cocaine and marijuana all into the same category of disciplinary cases. “I would say that at any given time, any day of the week, there are probably about 10 percent of kids in the high school that are under the influence of something,” said school resource officer Susan Condreay, of the Aurora Police Department. Marijuana is second only to alcohol in teen substance abuse, according to the Healthy Kids Colorado Survey, an annual survey from the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment. “Alcohol is by far and away the most used
substance by middle-schoolers, then it goes down for marijuana and tobacco is just below that,” said Dr. Thurstone. “Prescription drug use is number four, and it’s increasing, so that’s been an alarming increase, as well, that we need to pay attention to.” The Department of Education wants to address the lack of specificity in its drug reporting, according to Rep. Polly Lawrence, R-Roxborough. She said she was asked to carry a bill that would require schools to be more transparent with their drug reporting, particularly about marijuana. “We are still continuing with stakeholder meetings, but I am hoping to have a bill drafted and ready to go (this month),” Lawrence said. “If we don’t start now, we are not going to have a baseline to compare to in the future.” She hopes that potential new requirements will not only show how legal marijuana is impacting students, but also provide more data on other potentially harmful drugs. “Colorado ranks I think second in prescription drug abuse in the country and that is something we need to keep a constant eye on,” Lawrence said. “And I think starting to monitor the marijuana use is very important so we need to make sure that we are collecting the best data we can.”
Prescription drugs abused
The National Survey on Drug Use and Health ranked Colorado as the second worst state in the country for prescription drug abuse in 2013. That year, 598 people of all ages in the state died from unintentional drug poisoning, according to the Colorado Office of Behavioral Health. That’s nearly four times the number of deaths that were caused by drunk driving during the same period. Still, marijuana remains a top priority for school resource officers and treatment providers, especially in middle schools. Denver Public Schools hired a district substance abuse treatment coordinator this school year, who will focus greater attention on middle schools. “According to our data, middle schools are where most people begin to experiment,” said John Simmons, DPS executive director of student services. “It’s much easier to stop someone from using in the first place than it is to stop it once it’s started.” The Denver district saw a 7 percent increase in drug incidents, from 452 in 201213 to 482 in the 2013-14 year. Simmons says that marijuana accounts for almost every drug incident. But legalization supporters point out that kids aren’t coming in and buying from stores, and packages that leave the stores do not market to children. “We have gone above and beyond to make sure that we are not marketing to children,” said Meg Sanders, owner of MiNDFUL, a cannabis company that operates in several cities in Colorado. “We feel it’s our responsibility as a responsible business to card not just once but twice for any recreational customer, and medical patients have to show several documents before they can purchase marijuana.” Some say that legalization might help provide resources for addressing underage consumption of marijuana, using tax revenue generated through legal sales. “The fact is that we had a significant number using marijuana then and now (before and after legalization),” Simmons said of public schools in Denver. “We are

Some data not tracked
The Colorado General Assembly set aside $2.5 million in grants for schools from marijuana tax revenue. As of November 2014, the Department of Education had awarded $975,000 to 11 districts to hire more health professionals to help address student behavior regarding marijuana, sometimes as an alternative to traditional punishments like expulsion or suspension. But alternative or non-punitive methods currently dealing with drug incidents by districts or individual schools are not tracked by state data. “We have a lot of different things that we will do for kids who have gotten involved in drug incidents in school,” said Kenlyn Newman, the student engagement initiatives director for Adams 12 Five Star School District. She says that different behaviors require different responses, and schools will try to intervene and work with parents to address inappropriate behav-
iors. Adams 12 schools are in five different municipalities, and each of those schools has different agreements with the local government. This means that police involvement can vary from school to school, with similar incidents being reported differently to the state. But the Department of Education has no means to measure these differences in reporting. “There is no manpower to audit the data; we can’t go back to the districts to check what they say,” said Annette Severson from the Colorado Department of Education. “We just have to trust that what they report to us is accurate and then they have to sign off and say that it is accurate.” Even as Colorado has been launched into the national spotlight as the first state to legalize and commercialize the sale of marijuana for adult use, the state has yet to begin collecting comprehensive and consistent data to describe how it is impacting Colorado’s teens.

8-OPINION
OPINION Maybe the answer
8 Centennial Citizen
Y O U R S
is all in the question Have you ever found yourself so distracted during a conversation where you had to ask the other person, “What did you say?” And maybe it’s not even the fact that you were distracted — maybe the other person was just talking too slow or too fast for you to comprehend what they had said, so again you ask, “What did you say?” Or the discussion could just be very confusing or shocking and just so you make sure that you are abundantly clear on what was being said you ask the same question, “What did you say?” Many people want clarity, and some not only want clarity, they need clarity. For these folks things need to be very clear, black and white, no gray areas at all, no mystification. So they will certainly ask for someone to repeat themselves when they need more information. Then there are others who would just rather not know, they are just not that interested so they may never ask for clarity. Or they are so absorbed in what they are planning on saying or how they can talk about themselves in some way, they couldn’t care less what the other person actually said. As I spoke with some folks about writing this column I asked for opinions around listening skills, the art of conversation, and basic human interactions. The opinions were almost unanimous, “People just don’t listen anymore.” Some shared their thoughts around the fact that texting and email have done away with the need for actually speaking with someone unless you absolutely had to. Another opinion was that because
technology plays such a huge role in our lives, we are just out of practice and that no one is actually intentionally avoiding a one-on-one or group discussion, we are all just out of practice. One person I spoke with didn’t focus or point the finger of blame on texting and technology, instead they felt like we are all so busy, running a million miles an hour, and caught up in what we “have” to do that we have forgotten how to slow down and take the time to talk with others. Not talking “at” others, but talking “with” others. And when this happens, our personal agendas are so important to us that we just don’t listen anymore. How are you doing at the whole listening thing? If you are struggling with it, let me give you a few things that I have used to help me become a better listener. • Ask questions instead of making statements: The more you ask others about themselves and their jobs, hobbies, or families, the more interesting they will become. So instead of trying to jump in with your own stories, just replace what you had wanted to say with another question

LITTON LEAVES COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
Drew Litton has decided to pursue other opportunities. His cartoon will no longer appear in Colorado Community Media publications.
• Write things down: The more we write down, the more people will talk. This is usually suggested in a business conversation like a sales call, team meeting, or a job interview. However, in social settings when someone gives me a good idea or recommends something I ask if it would be okay if I made a note to myself. The other person is generally gracious and feels a sense of pride that they can be of help. • Repeating a question or statement: If you are really struggling with listening, this tip should help you the most. When you are engaged in a conversation, try repeating back what the other person had said or turn it into a question like, “Excuse me, but what I think I heard you say was that you are a respiratory therapist, is that correct?” The point of all three tips is that you become an intentional listener and not just a casual listener. This places the focus squarely on the other person and their interests and you will minimize and maybe even eliminate the need to ask, “What did you say?” So again, how about you? Are you an intentional listener already? Do you have listening tips of your own? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we take the time to become a better listener, who knows, we may just learn something along the way too. So listen up and let’s make this a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.
Bad news, sad news, not a lot of glad news “We are Charlie” seems like a long time ago now. Ferguson seems like a long time ago now. So do the marches and protests over the death of Eric Garner. Four hundred schoolgirls were kidnapped by Boko Haram. What’s become of them? I am guessing that some of them are pregnant. Boko Haram continues to terrorize and slaughter. But they have been bumped in the Most Despicable category by ISIS. I have a good friend who has a cure for all of these headlines. She doesn’t read them. Instead she travels, visits her mother, spends time with her children, goes to art exhibitions, and breathes deep without anxieties over current events.
Why can’t I do that? If I did, I wouldn’t understand a word that Bill Maher or Bill O’Reilly were saying. Maybe that’s it, or at least part of it. There is a price to be paid for staying informed. I don’t plan to build a cabin, like Henry David Thoreau did, but it has crossed my mind. I don’t have his spirit,
certainly. I couldn’t make it without my Mac. I spilled coffee on the keyboard one day, and went hours without being on the Internet. I think Smitty would be able to make it, as long as there was a tree nearby. Thoreau spent two years, two months, and two days in his cabin, built on land owned by Ralph Waldo Emerson. Thoreau didn’t have the distractions of the Internet, or television, or any of the kaboodle that we do. I do have one thing in common with Thoreau: I spend most of my time alone. I wouldn’t know anything different. Thoughts occupy my time all of the time, not just late at night when the workday is done. Smith continues on Page 9
Investment returns expected to decline Most seasoned investors are used to volatility. In fact, in recent years that is all we have ever known — that the stock market is a roller coaster. No matter what the catalyst is, whether it is foreign or domestic, economic or political, interest rates or earnings, we get constant ups and downs. The next thing analysts are predicting is lower returns. Advisors are to set the expectation for the future to be substantially lower than returns have been in the past. This includes equities and fixed income. Therefore, be careful using historical averages in your long-term planning. You may be disappointed when it does not pan out. The equity market average returns have been coming down gradually from a 12 percent return in 1926 to just 7.8 percent return average in the last 20 years. Let’s take a look at why:
1. Technology has increased efficiencies in market trading with super computers and instantaneous block trading. This has increased the volume but destabilized the price. 2. More investors are involved in the markets than ever before. Much of this is inspired by 401(k) plans, but a lot of instant access to markets via the internet has created opportunity for small investors as well. Often uninformed investors
O U R S
may buy and sell at the wrong times to gain the optimum return and this increases declines and pushes up artificial highs. 3. The economy has evolved over time. Stocks that are considered valuable today, such as Apple, would have had no value in the first eight decades of the stock market. Much of this is attributed to our economy moving away from manufacturing and more toward services, which are intangible and difficult to value. 4. Inflation has remained low for long periods of time. Inflation can be a byproduct of high growth (as measured by GDP), and full employment which can push up wages and increase prices. With very low, slow growth, we have not experienced a reason to have high re Kummer continues on Page 9

Because there is no workday. “Walden: Life in the Woods” compresses two years, two months, and two days into one year. Here’s something I didn’t know until I started to shop for cabins and lighthouses: Thoreau’s cabin wasn’t way out in the middle of nowhere. It was on the edge of town. He could have walked to the Piggly
Wiggly. Maybe he did. And another thing: He didn’t live in solitary. He kept three chairs handy for visitors, and said that he had more visitors than when he was living at home. Home was just two miles away. Finding this out was a little shattering. I thought he had really dropped out. That he was unavailable. Inaccessible. A neighbor said she was sure he sneaked home at night to do his laundry. On the other hand, if you were holed up in a huge, vacant hotel, you could designate each room as a metaphor for the rooms of life and the journeys of existence, and save one just for copies of
Playboy. I don’t know. A century later, John Steinbeck did just about the same thing, but he did it on the move, in a camper truck. He crossed America with his poodle, Charley. In every photograph I have seen of Thoreau, he looks like an elderly man. He looks older than I do. He died when he was 10 years younger than John Elway is. Thoreau said, and I agree: “Writing your name can lead to writing sentences. And the next thing you’ll be doing is writing paragraphs and then books. And then you’ll be in as much trouble as I

turns on our stocks. Earnings have been the driver, which have increased due to better technology and fewer workers. However this may not be as sustainable as growing output has been in prior decades. 5. We are now on a global economy. Prior to 2008, we were not overly concerned about what happened in Greece or any part of the Eurozone. Japan being in recession for long periods of time did not impact us significantly and Emerging Markets was a neat concept but not heavily invested in yet. Now we are indefinitely tied to what happens in other countries to the point where it affects our multinational companies’ stock price as well as bond prices. Fixed income and bond earnings may also deteriorate due to the global effect and long periods of low interest rates. The United States’ bond is considered very high quality compared to many countries that may be close to defaulting due to struggling economies. Yet with such low interest rates, there is a very narrow margin of return. The higher the quality of the bond, the lower the return. Therefore, if a bond

issued in Spain is paying say 3 percent, by comparison, a much higher quality bond in the U.S. must only yield about half that. This brings us back to the original comment that investors should plan on lower returns for the foreseeable future. I doubt that technology and high volume trading will end anytime soon. The global economy is here to stay as well. Interest rates are subject to economic growth and that remains slow worldwide for the time being. The best-case scenario is to lower your expectations and plan your longterm goals accordingly. That is the only thing you really have control over — your standard of living and level of saving. The best recipe for success is to plan on lower returns and compensate in other ways such as reduced spending, working longer, and investing prudently. Otherwise you are likely to come up short and it will be too late to make adjustments.

Local engineers become rock stars C School hosts Orion spacecraft presentations By Christy Steadman csteadman @colorado communitymedia.com
The Orion spacecraft is worldwide news, said Penny Eucker, The STEM School and Academy’s executive director, and it is happening here in the south metro area. “All the genius behind man’s next step is right in our neighborhood,” she said, as it was the local engineers at Lockheed Martin and the United Launch Alliance that made it happen. “These scientists are changing the future.” On Dec. 5, NASA’s Orion, a LockheedMartin built spacecraft, blasted off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Orion is the first “space vehicle of any kind specifically designed for human deep space exploration,” and is “America’s first human space capsule to be launched beyond low earth orbit” since Apollo 17, which was launched 42 years ago, states a media release. STEM hosted two public seminars on
Feb. 6 for students and young professionals to learn about the specifics of designing, building, testing and launching Orion. The information was presented by Lockheed Martin and ULA engineers. Following the presentation, attendees had an opportunity for a meet-and-greet with the engineers. “It was amazing to see the students treating the engineers like rock stars,” said event organizer Denise Gliwa. “The students were asking them for their autographs.” However, it is also the students who inspire the engineers, said ULA’s vice president of engineering and IT Matt Smith, so outreach to the next generation of scientists is important. “Population-wise, Colorado offers very good STEM programs,” said Gene Dionne, retired vice president of engineering and operations for classified space at Lockheed Martin. “But technical fields are not easy. Fewer students are going into STEM, and that makes it more difficult to find college graduates to hire.” But the whole nation is becoming more interested in space exploration again, Smith said, who hopes the Orion presentation stimulated “the next generation of scientists and engineers right here in Colorado.”

U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Aurora, presented Garrett Barner, of Centennial, with the Bronze Medal of the Congressional Award on Feb. 6. The award recognizes dedication and commitment to the community, as well as personal growth. The award was established in 1979 to recognize initiative, achievement and service in young people. Barner, a student at Eaglecrest High School, set goals in the four categories of voluntary public service, personal development, physical fitness, and expedition/ exploration. He spent many hours of service in Peru, assisting in building and cleaning schools to make them more suitable for learning. He also dedicated time to
reading lessons and Wednesday night church services. Being a member of the school swim team provided Barner with the opportunity to improve on his overall fitness level. For his expedition, he
planned a four-day trip to the mountains, where he spent time exploring and enjoying nature. Learn more about the Congressional Award at www.congressionalaward.
House bill targets disaster prediction Technology offers better grip on fire, flood patterns By Amy Woodward awoodward @coloradocommunitymedia.com A revolutionary new disaster prediction system could be integrated as a tool for first responders statewide. State Rep. Tracy Kraft-Tharp has championed the technology developed by the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder through a House bill, which passed its first committee hearing in a 10-3 vote Feb. 9. Using advanced computer modeling and data sampling, the fire and flood predictor would give first responders 18 hours’ warning of where and when fires and floods are likely to start, what areas they will affect and when it will reach the affected area. The bill requires an appropriation from the general fund for the imple-
mentation of the system at $10 million for the next five years. “I see this bill as one that has the potential of saving a great deal of general fund dollars,” said Rep. Don Coram, R-Montrose. “I think it will certainly be beneficial to the state in the long run.” If the bill makes it through the House and Senate, the system could go online as soon as the spring of 2016. “These Colorado-developed technologies provide Colorado with the unique opportunity to take the lead in putting these systems to work across the state to save lives and property,” said William Mahoney, deputy director of the research applications laboratory at NCAR. The disaster prediction technology will change the way firefighters think on how to fight fires, said Gary Briese, executive director of the nonprofit Colorado State Fire Chiefs group. He added that the decision process by officers in command centers will
be sped up significantly and will provide them with resources never seen # before.

csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com A little girl wants her peers to see how cool the Hello Kitty logo is on her brand-new shirt, said Highlands Ranch author Debi Smith-Racanelli. Whereas a tween wants her peers to see how cool she looks in her brand-new shirt with the Hello Kitty logo. Girls between the ages of 9 and 12 go through a lot in these tween years, SmithRacanelli said, as they transition from being a little girl to a teen. They start puberty, go from elementary school to middle school, and friend issues, and the drama around that, begins to take center stage, she said.

Larimer Square restaurant gets all spiffed up Rioja owners Beth Gruitch and Jennifer Jasinski threw a “coming out” party Feb. 9 to show off the extensive remodel of the 10-year-old restaurant on Larimer Square. Drinks flowed, bites were passed and local movers and shakers — including Larimer Square boss Jeff Hermanson — came to ogle the new digs. “We’ve grown up,” Jasinski said about the sleeker, sparer and more sophisticated restaurant decor from Denver-based Boss Architecture. James Beard award-winning chef Jasinski and business partner Gruitch reopened their flagship restaurant on Feb. 4 after a nearly monthlong complete renovation. “Our food, service and wine program have never been better,” Jasinski said. “Now, we’ve got a sexy new design to show off our skills. I can’t wait for everyone to see it.” A fully re-envisioned seating concept complete with chairs and booths covered in a sage green crushed velvet, multiple booth and banquette seating options, and a more intimate lounge area are all part of the new look. To celebrate the robust nature of the wine program at Rioja, the wine display is the centerpiece of the new design as it moved out from the edge of the space into the center of the room. Rioja is the flagship restaurant of Crafted Concepts and is located at 1431 Larimer St. More information at www.riojadenver. com or by calling 303-820-2282. Other Crafted Concepts restaurants include Bistro Vendome, Euclid Hall Bar & Kitchen in Larimer Square, and Stoic & Genuine in Denver’s historic Union Station.

What is the hardest part about being a tween girl?
De b i sa ys: What is the hardest part about raising a tween girl?
You feel like your parents are still treating you like a little kid, but you don’t want to be treated that way, so you try to not be controlled.
Finding the balance of letting her grow up and start to find her own way, but making sure that you’re still involved and able to support her growth.
What are girls most challenged with in their tween years?
What are parents most challenged with in a tween daughter?
Looking and acting cool for peers. Cool for tweens is people looking up to you and wanting to be your friend. They see the older kids having fun and hanging out together and they kind of want that, so they try to act like them, thinking all their peers will think of them as cool. Should a parent worry if they feel their tween is either too immature or too mature? I think parents should worry more if their tween is more immature than her peers, because she has more of a chance of getting bullied for it. Why is it important to pay attention to tweens? Now, with all the technology and social media, some of the things that people post are just awful and inappropriate. Parents are oblivious to that. They might not realize that people would put certain things on social media. If the parents are aware, then it’s easier for them to stop it, and stop their kids from seeing it.
When people have kids in elementary school, they have to be super-vigilant because they require a lot of supervision. Parents of tweens sometimes make the mistake of giving them too much freedom, rather than making that transition with them. Should a parent worry if they feel their tween is either too immature or too mature? Yes. If a tween is too immature, I would worry that the immaturity would allow them to be too easily influenced. If they’re too mature, I would worry that they’re at risk of becoming involved with things they are definitely not ready for. Why is it important to pay attention to tweens? Parents are not aware of all the influences that surround tweens — from the negative media content to the kids talking about drugs and alcohol to the crazy amount of stuff they see on YouTube and social media. Even if their kids aren’t involved in those things, I think parents would be shocked at just how much their kids are actually exposed to.

‘Protest’ launches exhibit that looks back Museo de Las Americas examines Chicano Movement By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com Instead of its usual First Friday opening, the Museo de Las Americas in the Santa Fe Arts District staged a “protest” Feb. 12 at its entrance, paying homage to the Brown Berets involved in the 1960s-70s Chicano Movement in Colorado, California, New Mexico, Arizona and elsewhere. The event kicked off the Museo’s exhibit “Chicano,” which runs through May 29, with installations by contemporary Chicano artists recalling the unsettled period. Installations will include video, audio, graphic images, poetry and a painting representing the 1970s artistic and political expression in Denver. The exhibit recognizes protesters “who participated in an immense call for social justice — youth, women, veterans, farm workers and others.” Featured artists are Carlos Fresquez, Delilah Montoya, Daniel Salazar and Francisco Zamora. Salazar and Zamora also collaborate as “Los Supersonicos,” beginning in 1998 — Fresquez in the U.S. and Zamora in Mexico (at that time). They each contribute works to a project, looking at the “multi-

This introspection has led to work that we both mock and pay homage to traditional icons. The tag team paintings in this exhibit display a melding of Mexican, Chicano, U.S. and global culture in the 21st Century,” says their joint artist statement. It is a painted installation called “Checking Rear View of Chicano Time.” Described as “a temporal mural that spoke of these past and recent histories, it includes a Chicano portrait of the late ‘60s, a pre-Columbian Codex figure holding a shield, and a figure of a Chicano waving a protest sign — both warriors … We are creating in the ancient future.” Daniel Salazar was a “young teenager when El Movimiento Chicano started rumbling, beckoning me, an isolated Mexican American from the suburbs of Denver to stand up and become an active participant in the struggle for justice, Civil Rights and community empowerment.” He has worked in film and photography ever since and shares an installation of B-roll foot-

Guitarist Spera to play in Parker Symphony show set for PACE Center By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com Featured soloist with the Parker Symphony on Feb. 27 will be guitarist Nicolo Spera, performing “Concierto de Aranjuez” by Joaquin Rodrigo. The title of the concert is “Festive Celebrations” and in addition to the Rodrigo work, the orchestra, conducted by Rene Knetsch, will perform Brahms’ “Academic Festival Overture” and Jean Sibelius’ “Second Symphony. Brahms wrote his piece in thanks for being awarded an honorary degree, and it includes themes from student drinking songs. Additional cause for celebration — 2015 is the 150th anniversary of Sibelius’ birth, making his popular Second Symphony a fine choice. Nicolo Spera, assistant professor of classical guitar at the University of ColoradoBoulder, holds degrees from the Claudio Monteverde Conservatory in Bolzano, and the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena, as well as an artist diploma in guitar performance from the University of Denver and a doctor of musical arts from CU-Boulder, VoHS-10.25x4.pdf

In 2013 he founded the University of Colorado International Guitar Festival and Competition, which attracts international guests, performers and students. Spera performs on both six- and tenstring guitars, as well as on the theorbo, an instrument in the lute family. His repertoire includes the music of Franco-Andalusian composer Maurice Ohana, which he has recorded and lectured about, and he is passionate about contemporary music. The Parker Symphony was founded in 1994 as the South Suburban Community Orchestra and moved to Parker when the PACE Center was built and the community welcomed its own orchestra — now in its third season.

Ballet at heart of extravaganza Opera house hosts three works through March 1 By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia. com Three works will fill the stage at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House from Feb. 20 through March 1, accompanied by the Colorado Ballet Orchestra. Artistic Director Gil Boggs said: “The first time we performed a Ballet Masterworks production in 2013, we really pushed our dancers to demonstrate their artistry, athleticism and raw talent …” They demonstrated what they were capable of outside of storybook ballets. The program includes: “Concerto Barocco” by choreographer George Balanchine, with music by Johann Sebastian Bach; “Fancy Free” by choreographer Jerome Robbins, with original score composed by Leonard Bernstein; and “In Pieces,” cho-
reographed by Val Caniparoli with music by Poul Ruders. Russian neo-classical ballet choreographer Balanchine (1904-1983) has been credited with the fusion of contemporary concepts with the language of classical ballet. He was invited to the U.S. in 1933 by arts supporter/philanthropist Lincoln Kirstein and they founded the School of American Ballet and the New York City Ballet, which he headed until his death. He said the ballerinas in “Concerto Barocco” personify the violins in “Bach’s Concerto in D Minor for Two Violins,” according to Boggs. American choreographer/ Broadway producer Jerome Robbins (1918-1998) choreographed more than 60 ballets and created dance for theater, movies and television. The comical “Fancy Free” is set in wartime New York, where three sailors on leave seek out drinks and female companionship. It premiered in 1944. Colorado Ballet premiered “In Pieces” in 2013.

reographer Val Canaiparoli began choreographing works while a dancer with the San Francisco Ballet and has works in the repertories of more than 35 dance companies. He is known for unique choices in music and “In Pieces” is set to Ruder’s “Concerto in Pieces.” Good news: The company had a record-breaking attendance for its production of “The Nutcracker” in 2014, as well as continued success with its capital campaign for its new home, Armstrong Center for Dance in the Santa Fe Arts District.

Hotel design a-maze-ing A New York architect has won the contest to create a design for the Stanley Hotel’s hedge maze, made famous in the movie “The Shining” (which was not filmed at the Estes Park hotel).

Standing won two plane tickets, hotel accommodations and two all-access passes to the Stanley Film Festival, which will be held April 30 through May 3.

She had free rein to comment and add her opinion on the topic at the end of every chapter in the book, Smith-Racanelli said. The book can provide some insight for parents of boys, Smith-Racanelli said, as some of the topics are universal, such as drugs and alcohol, bullying, pop culture and social media, but the experiences are targeted to girls. Writing it “was truly a passion project to support the relationship between parents and girls in order to make those transitional years better,” Smith-Racanelli said, “which hopefully carries forward into the teen years and beyond.”

‘Vampire Academy’ author to visit Mead will speak to fans at library about final book in series By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com One of the country’s most popular fantasy authors is coming to Castle Rock to discuss the final volume of her bestselling series. Richelle Mead, the author of the popular “Vampire Academy” and “Bloodlines” book series, will be at the Philip S. Miller Library on Feb. 20 to promote her latest book, “The Ruby Circle.” The event will run from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Books will be sold at the event courtesy of the Tattered Cover Book Store. “The Ruby Circle” is the last book of the series. With more than 10 million copies in print, Mead’s books have hit the No.1 spot on the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists simultaneously, spending a total of 79 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. In February 2014, “Vampire Academy” was adapted into a film directed by Mark Waters. The film received two Teen Choice

will be satisfied with the ending. So far, the response has been positive.” The protagonist, Sydney Sage, is an alchemist, one of a group of humans who dabble in magic and serve to bridge the
worlds of humans and vampires. They protect vampire secrets — and human lives. In the last “Bloodlines” book, “Silver Shadows,” Sydney and Moroi Adrian struggled to keep their feelings for one another hidden and to reunite in the aftermath of a catastrophic event that ripped their worlds apart. In “The Ruby Circle,” Sydney and Adrian’s secret romance is exposed and they find themselves facing the wrath of both the Alchemists and the Moroi. When the life of someone they both love is put on the line, Sydney risks everything to hunt down a deadly former nemesis. Meanwhile, Adrian becomes enmeshed in a puzzle that could hold the key to a shocking secret about spirit magic that could shake the entire Moroi world. During the event in Castle Rock, Mead will not only talk about and sign copies of the book, but she will also answer fan questions about the series. “For the fans of the series, I tried to throw in a lot of extra stuff in this one and answer some of the questions people had from the earlier books,” Mead said. “I wanted to give people closure.” Mead said that while she is wrapping things up with her most beloved work, she will still be writing more in the coming years and already has a new science fiction book planned for 2016.

Area swimmers make waves at state ThunderRidge’s Ochitwa, Arapahoe’s Moynihan each win two events By Scott Stocker
Special to Colorado Community Media Hadn’t we seen this before? That certainly could have been a question asked by the fans attending the Feb. 13 and 14 Class 5A girls state swimming championships at EPIC Sports Center in Fort Collins. After all, a total of seven individual defending event champions were back as well as the Regis Jesuit relay teams, which won all three last season. And the Raiders were again paced by the same foursomes of swimmers that accomplished the relay titles a year ago. The only event that did not return its defending champion was the 500 freestyle, but there still was a champion in the field. That designation belonged to Arapahoe’s Ella Moynihan, who was the 200-meter champion last year and had qualified second in the event for the Feb. 14 finals. Breaking individual state records was also going to be a difficult task from the get-go. Six are held by former Regis standout and Olympic gold medal-winner Missy Franklin, and as expected, none of her marks were really challenged. Fossil Ridge, coached by Tasha Marchant, came through as expected, scoring 347 points, to outdistance runner-up Regis (277) and third-place Fairview (226.5). “All our home meets are here and this is where we train,” Marchant said. “It makes it even sweeter as they set their focus at the beginning of the year. It’s nice to see them ac-
complish almost everything they wanted to accomplish.” Annie Ochitwa of ThunderRidge won both the 50- and 100-freestyle events last year and was another two-event individual champs in the field. Now, make her another two-event champion as she came through to defend her titles. Ochitwa won the 50 in 22.86 seconds and the 100 in 49.60. She edged Rock Canyon’s Abigail Kochevar, who swam 23.36, in the 50, then nipped Loveland’s Brooke Hansen, who accounted for a 49.97 effort in the 100. “We all want to repeat our individual championships and I couldn’t be happier,” said Ochitwa after her 50-win. “I’ve gone against Abby (Kochevar) for years and the competition is always tough in this event. I felt I was well prepared. I did what I wanted to do today and hit some good times. This past week I have been able to swim my fastest times and the hard work paid off. “Now, it’s off to the University of Arizona” Ochitwa said. “This is just a fun event and there are some fine girls to compete against. This is something that I think we all enjoy and I’m excited to reach the finals. Now, I’m excited for my opportunity to compete in college.” Kochevar also would not be disappointed in her state appearance as she was able to win her second title in the 100 backstroke. She swam the event in 54.17 seconds, beating Shelly Drozda of Mountain Range (55.80) and Patricia Van Law of ThunderRidge (55.88). Moynihan won her repeat title in the 200 freestyle with a time of 1:48.28. She would also pick up her second title in the 500 freestyle, in 4:54.92. And, she also knew it was going to be tough from the start. Swimming continues on Page 20

Legal Notice NO.: 1282-2014 especially if it gets uncomfortably personal. First Publication: 2/19/2015 Last Publication: 3/19/2015 TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Your Bovine Name of Publication: Littleton Independent
instincts are on the mark about that “favor” you’re being asked to do. Agree to nothing unless you get a full explanation -- which you would check out first, of course. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) A somewhat unsettled recent period should give way to a smoother time going through the week. Use this quieter time to catch up on matters you might have had to let slide. CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Feeling a little confused is understandable with all those mixed messages. Take time to list the questions you have. Then present them and insist on answers that make sense. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Cupid can be very helpful for Lions seeking a love connection. The chubby cherub also brings warm and fuzzy feelings to paired Leos and Leonas who already share a special love line. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Travel is favored this week, whether you’ll be globe-trotting or taking a trip to a nearby getaway. You might be surprised (or maybe not) by who wants to be your traveling companion. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Getting advice on your next business-related move is a good idea, but only if your advisers are trustworthy. Get references that you can check out before you make any decisions. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Getting a boost in your self-esteem is one benefit that comes with a job well done. There are other plusses as well, including being noticed by all the right people. Good luck. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) Make time to deal with family matters, especially where they concern your elderly kinfolk. Being there for them from the start can help resolve problems sooner rather than later. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Getting a project started can often be difficult. But the good news is that you won’t want for lack of assistance from colleagues who would like to work with you. So, let them! AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A lot of work-related issues might be raised this week, and you need to be prepared for whatever comes along. Things should be easier when it comes to matters in your private life. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) What might appear to be a very much unwanted change in your life right now could turn out to be a very welcome event after all. Give yourself a chance to see where it might take you. BORN THIS WEEK: You exercise your strong leadership qualities well, which is why people believe in you and feel reassured by you. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
