Answers sought in teen suicides State’s second-leading cause of death among young people claims 4 locally in 2 weeks By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Four Douglas County teens were lost to suicide in less than two weeks — a number equal to the total of teen suicides in the county in 2013. The deaths recorded between Jan. 31 and Feb. 11 appear unrelated and do not point to copycat syndrome. “We have not found there’s any communication, any tie between them,” Douglas County Coroner Lora Thomas said. “But

like many of the suicide cases we have sadly investigated, mental illness can play a role in suicides.” Thomas would not discuss specifics about any of the cases, including the manner of death and what led to the fatal decisions. The children range in age from 15 to 17, and include 15-year-old Mountain Vista High School sophomore Robert Klamo. He fatally shot his mother and then himself in their Highlands Ranch home Jan. 31; he reportedly was undergoing treatment for mental illness. Two of the four attended Douglas County High School. The teen deaths have prompted communitywide concern.

The Douglas County School District sent an email to parents that included suicidal behavior warning signs, resources and tips for talking to students. Two Castle Rock churches held prayer vigils. The cases haunt Thomas, who has studied suicide extensively to try to slow or prevent the incidents, and who visited this week with one of the teen’s parents. “These parents loved this kiddo desperately and they did everything they could,” she said. “It’s almost like he was this fragile little Christmas ornament. They carried him along for so long to protect him, but something happened and he slipped out of their hands. “When I look in the eyes of these par-

Defense with discipline

ents that are devastated…” Thomas trailed off and paused before continuing. “Gosh, what can we do to help these kids?” Thomas and others in the mental health field hope publicizing the suicides will prompt vital conversations between teens and adults. In 2002, the suicides of four Jefferson County School District teens in an 11-month-period prompted community members to form the Second Wind Fund, which provides children and teens with 12 no-cost therapy sessions. The program has served 3,500 people in Colorado, and has proven highly effective. Suicides continues on Page 9

Martial arts studios teach anti-bullying techniques to kids By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com The escalation of school violence has parents and their kids seeking the most effective ways to avoid becoming a victim. The sometimes-tragic consequences of bullying have made national headlines in recent years, highlighting the need for proper defense training from kindergarten on. Martial arts — among the most popular outlets — utilizes verbal methods first to defuse potentially dangerous situations. Trent Quinn, chief instructor at Tiger Rock Martial Arts near Mainstreet and Dransfeldt Road, says bullying prevention is “something that’s on the forefront of everybody’s mind.” Quinn and his team of instructors have visited several elementary schools in Parker, spending a few days teaching bully defense techniques during gym class. Lessons include the use of “verbal weapons” and assertive body posture to deter bullies. “They won’t go after someone who is Bully continues on Page 9

Parker Town Council unanimously approved a lease-purchase agreement that paves the way for millions of dollars worth of construction over the next two years. Councilmembers voted 6-0 to issue $21.9 million in certificates of participation to fund the expansion and renovation of the Parker Recreation Center and a second public works facility, the latter of which is needed due to growth in that department. There was no public comment during the Feb. 18 meeting during which the agreement was approved on final reading. The Town of Parker will take on annual debt payments of more than $1.6 million; incremental decreases will occur over the 20-year term. Approximately $7 million of the COPs, as they are commonly known, will be used for the overhaul of the Parker Recreation Center, a facility built in 1993. Recreation director Jim Cleveland estimated that the project will take 12-14 months. Mayor Mike Waid has pointed to continued public interest in recreation amenities as a reason to further invest in infrastructure. The town will use $13.5 million for a new public works building on Hess Road, just west of Motsenbocker Road, to house the streets, traffic and stormwater departments. Parker’s facility maintenance staff will remain at the public works headquarters on Motsenbocker Road. That facility, on the western end of Salisbury Park, is a refurbished horse barn that has become cramped as the department has grown. The aggregate principal amount of the base rentals payable by the town, pursuant to the lease, cannot exceed $21.9 million. According to the agreement, the maximum repayment amount by the town, including principal and interest, “shall not exceed $37 million” over the 21-year term of the lease. Annual payments will not go

New Parker eatery to embrace history

Brent Walker to bring old style to former Warhorse Inn By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ coloradocommunitymedia.com The restaurateur who bought the shuttered Warhorse Inn is developing a concept that embraces the history of the building. Brent Walker, the man behind the three Earl’s Restaurant and Bar locations in Colorado, purchased one of the most coveted spots on Mainstreet in January after an “aligning of the stars.” His vision for the locale is one that celebrates the storied life of the Parker Garage, an old auto repair and filling station that has been converted into various uses since. Walker makes it clear that he is not seeking to establish a theme restaurant, but rather a gathering place that allows the “old architecture to tell the story.” Of course, such an endeavor is not exactly an easy or inexpensive process. “It’s an older building,” Walker says. “It’s got a lot of challenges that we’re discovering on a daily basis as to what it’s going to take to get it reconditioned, make it look a lot like it used to.” The interior spots that have been stripped to the original brick reveal scorch marks from one of three fires to hit the building in its first seven decades. The new owners, including two in-state partners, are awaiting permits to get a closer inspection. The ultimate goal is to “take everything down to the original walls and build everything back up on the inside,” said Walker, who was 20 years old when he started as a bartender at an Earl’s that was opening in a suburb of Edmonton, Alberta, in Canada. The timing in which the restaurant changed hands was opportune. Walker, who lives in Tallyn’s Reach in southeast Aurora, left Earl’s last spring in search of a

fresh adventure in the restaurant industry. A friend who works in downtown Parker mentioned last fall that the famed Warhorse Inn was up for sale. A tour of the building, guided by Warhorse Inn founder Stevan Strain, brought Walker to a faded picture on the wall. The image showed the simple façade of the Parker Garage with two men in period dress standing out front. It prompted Walker to dream up the restaurant concept, one that uses the name of the first business there. The interior will include an open kitchen that enhances an atmosphere already enlivened by the old brick, metal trusses and barrel roof. There are good restaurants in the Parker area, but the landmark’s character will help separate it from the “usual suspects,” Walker said. Walker traveled the world while working with Earl’s and had a chance to see the role that food plays in different cultures. That international flair will periodically find its way onto the menu. “We want to bring the world to Parker and share some of those experiences that we’ve got,” he said. “We really want to change the landscape of dining in Parker and have people look forward to a different experience.” While many of the details are still being worked out, including the menu and a definitive opening date, Walker is eager to share his experience and love of food and wine with Parker. Likewise, the neighborhood is anticipating the arrival of a new independent eatery. Josh Rivero, who owns Fika Coffee House across the street from the future Parker Garage, says it’s encouraging that Walker comes from the restaurant business. “Everybody on Mainstreet is excited,” Rivero said.

Quality Child Care

Davis, of Evergreen, first built the Parker Garage in 1915 or 1916.

The brick garage and gas station was constructed on an unused part of a lot occupied by the Littleton Creamery facility at Parker, one of many milk separation stations built along railroad lines throughout Front Range. Ownership changed hands four times between 1919 and 1928, at which time it was purchased by Simon Flierl. Flierl sold the business to the Ryan Bros. in 1944 after he became tired of labor shortages. “All the young people went off to war,” said Larry Smith, a member of the Parker Area Historical Society.

The building has had a history of destructive fires, the first being in December 1923 when a fire started in the workshop and badly damaged a car. On April 3, 1929, the garage burned to the ground with several vehicles and a tractor inside. The Charles O’Brien Construction Company, using near-exact plans to those of the original building, then rebuilt the building. The only part that changed was the modernized windows, Smith said. Since the closure of the garage, the building has been a

feed store, auction house, electronics outlet and a western wear store, the latter two of which also experienced fires. It became the Warhorse Inn in 1983. The building has been landmarked by the Town of Parker.

Grand opening set for Christian Brothers Castle Rock couple opens auto repair shop based on Christian values By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@coloradocommunitymedia.com It won’t be possible down the road to get a car repaired on Saturday and Sunday at the new Christian Brothers Automotive shop in Castle Rock, say the owners, Steve and Andrea Peterson of Castle Rock. For a couple of months, the new store at 5271 New Abbey Lane, which opens at 7 a.m. Feb. 24, will be open on Saturdays while they develop a customer base, but after that it will be closed all weekend long, Saturdays and Sundays, so employees can have that time off. “Everyone has the right to a family life,” Andrea Peterson said in a recent interview. And that’s only one of several operational requirements for this faith-based store that’s the 125th store in the Christian Brothers chain, started in Houston by two born-again Christian friends who were frustrated about not being able to find a trust-worthy mechanic. Franchise owners such as the Petersons must be bornagain Christians, but it’s not a “hard-and fast-rule” that employees are, the Petersons said. What is hard and fast is that the shop operates with Christian values in mind. On the back bumper of Andersons’ courtesy vehicle that will take customers to the near-

Every quarter the Petersons, as well as the shop’s manager and two technicians, will participate in a community service day project — and twice a year they will provide free oil changes for low-income people. If the mechanics find something else that would make the car unsafe, they’ll repair that, too. The Petersons said they’ll enlist churches’ help to find people in need.

er at Christian Brothers Automotive in Texas where they formerly lived. And he always had their two daughters, college students, take their cars to a local Christian Brothers shop. “We know they won’t take advantage of them,” Andrea Peterson said. When Steve and Andrea Peterson, who had always loved Colorado for skiing vacations, decided on a new chapter, being empty nesters now with both daughters in college, they decided on Colorado — and on owning Christian Brothers franchise, in part because of the chain’s reputation for honesty and integrity. And they were greatly impressed during a meeting with the Christian Brothers’ founder and general counsel that they were asked to join them in prayer, to ask God to reveal if this was the right opportunity for the Petersons and for the company. Things fell into place, and the couple moved to Castle Rock more than a year ago to get established in a church and in the community. Steve Peterson is on the town’s Public Works Commission, among other efforts. Andrea teaches tourism and hospitality classes at Metro State University. “It was a God thing,” Andrea said, that led them to getting this location for the shop, which is close to The Meadows, a community full of young families with newer cars. And it’s a Peterson thing to make sure it’s worthy.

But it wasn’t typical delivery fare like pizza or Chinese food; the business capitalized on a market that presumably has always existed. We Deliver Killeen allowed customers to get any dish from any restaurant with carry-out, and Davis has brought the franchise to Parker. Since opening in November, We Deliver Parker has partnered up with eateries like India Kitchen and Kimono Sushi, which offer discounted rates for deliveries. But for a slightly higher price and a delivery fee of $7, homeowners living as far away as Pradera and the Pinery can get food from just about every establishment in Parker delivered right to their doorstep. Davis says she is even willing to work with those

outside of the 80134 or 80138 zip codes, although a $3 fee might apply. Davis left the Army after suffering a back injury and decided to revisit her old stomping grounds. She says she was surprised that a delivery service had not been established in Parker and she “jumped on it” as quickly as she could. “I figured Parker doesn’t have anything like this and (the town) has grown so much since I left, it would be the perfect place,” she said. Business has been booming. Aided by four delivery drivers, We Deliver Parker has been adding more satisfied customers every week. Open seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., dinner tends to be the busiest time, especially on weekend nights or when it snows. And, worry not, the dishes are kept warm by insulated food carriers. Like a lot of start-ups in Douglas County, the business is home-based; Davis takes orders and completes transactions on her laptop or over the phone. Word has started to spread, not only among busy families but restaurants too. “When I started talking to the restaurants, no one had heard of it before,” she said. “They didn’t know it would work and it was hard to get partners at first. It’s gotten easier

once I proved it has worked.” The service could be particularly enticing for seniors who cannot get around easily or no longer drive. We Deliver Parker will bring groceries to seniors at a lower rate and the company also offers a “heroes discount” to members of the military, active-duty spouses, veterans, police, firefighters, EMTs and teachers.

Lone Tree’s first chief seeks Pueblo sheriff’s seat Former Parker resident started law enforcement career in Pueblo County By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Former Lone Tree Police Chief Steve Hasler is running for sheriff in Pueblo County. Hasler, Lone Tree’s first chief, served from the department’s 2004 launch until his controversial August 2012 firing. Hasler, who worked for the Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office in the early ‘90s, seeks to unseat current Pueblo County Sheriff Kirk Taylor. He did not return calls requesting comment on his campaign. Hired in 2004 to head Lone Tree’s police department, Hasler was dis-

missed “without cause” by former Lone Tree City Manager Jack Hidahl in 2012. Hasler filed a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in March 2013, alleging retaliatory termination. He consistently maintained the action was linked Hasler to a harassment/hostility complaint filed against Hidahl from a female police department employee. Hidahl, who retired in January after 18 years as city manager, never discussed the reasons for Hasler’s dismissal. He also declined to comment on the former chief’s Pueblo County campaign. Lone Tree city attorney Neil Rutledge said he has no new information

on Hasler’s case. “He filed a complaint with the EEOC; I have heard nothing since,” Rutledge said Feb. 12. Hasler’s attorney Michael Mills said his office has not received notification the case has been dismissed; he believes it is under investigation by the EEOC. An EEOC spokesman said it cannot comment on cases, even to confirm or deny a charge was filed. Hasler worked for the Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office in 1991. He met his wife in Pueblo, and the couple started their family there, before he accepted a job with the Manitou Springs Police Department. He was Erie’s police chief for 10 years before taking the job in Lone Tree. Formerly a resident of Parker, county records show Hasler and his wife bought a home in Pueblo in June 2013.

District files notice to appeal election ruling School leaders say decision could limit talks with public By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com When a judge ruled that the Douglas County School District violated campaignfinance law in the lead-up to the November school board race, the decision left the board intact and the district was not fined for its actions. But DCSD has moved to have the ruling overturned, saying if left to stand, the decision would severely limit its ability to communicate with the public. On Feb. 13 — just inside the 49-day window open for it to do so — the school district filed a notice of appeal with the Colorado Court of Appeals. The filing is short on details, but notes an appeal may question if the Administrative Court erred when it found DCSD’s pre-

election distribution of a district-financed report constituted a contribution to the reform candidates’ slate. Those four candidates, including incumbents Doug Benevento and Meghann Silverthorn, and newcomers Judi Reynolds and Jim Geddes, won the Nov. 5 election. DCSD so far has paid more than $62,500 to the law firm representing it in the case. Unsuccessful school board candidate Julie Keim filed the case in October, alleging the district violated the Colorado Fair Campaign Practices Act and attempted to influence the outcome of the election in several instances. In a Dec. 24 ruling, Judge Hollyce Farrell agreed with her on one of the points — which Keim said was the central issue. The use of district funds to pay for a September 2013 report praising DCSD’s reforms was the equivalent of a contribution to the four reform-slate candidates, Farrell ruled, because many of those who received it were potential voters in the November school board election. The judge did not levy a fine because Keim did not request one.

District officials said in late December they would not only appeal, but seek to have their legal costs covered. The most recent statement, issued Feb. 14, does not mention pursuing legal costs. “The Administrative Law Judge seems to have concluded that it is unlawful for the district ever to disseminate positive news involving its education policy if there also are candidates running for school board, or who may even run in the future, who happen to be pleased by that policy,” reads the email attributed to Douglas County School Board President Kevin Larsen. “The district does not agree with the Administrative Law Judge and believes her ruling is simply inconsistent with the law of Colorado.” The ruling would limit or “even silence” the school district’s ability to communicate with the community about important policy matters for “extensive periods before, during and after school board elections,” the statement continued. “We believe the Administrative Law Judge’s ruling, if left to stand, would effectively muzzle our school district and all public bodies from undertaking appropri-

ate, meaningful communication with the relevant community, now and in the future, unrelated to any specific candidate or campaign.” Keim said she’s disappointed in DCSD’s notice of appeal. “But I’m not surprised,” she said. “I just think once again they put their own selfinterest and egos ahead of taxpayers and students. “Public institutions should be able to disseminate unbiased information. However, the district’s actions went over the line and violated (the campaign act). I believe the judge’s ruling says it best: `The Hess Report was not a third-party, unbiased study’ and `The Hess Report was purchased with public money to influence the outcome of the Board election.’ ” The report titled, “The Most Interesting School District in America?” was written as part of a DCSD contract with Rick Hess of the American Enterprise Institute. The district emailed 85,000 community members about the “just-released white paper” in mid-September, and did not identify it as a district-paid product.

School district seeking public relations help Bids sought as communication expenses continue to rise By Jane Reuter jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Douglas County School District is looking to hire a public relations firm. When asked why the school district needs a PR firm, spokeswoman Paula Hans wrote in an email, “We constantly review ways to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our communications.” The request for proposal asks for qualified public relations firms to “assist the community relations and development department” in “crisis communications,

media relations and training, social media development (and) branding DCSD,” by developing new communication methods and PR marketing/strategy. The RFP is not posted on DCSD’s website, but on the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System website. It notes that the contract for additional communications services will be “a firm, fixed price,” but doesn’t specify an amount. “This is not a competitive bid,” states the request, which allows DCSD to “select the vendor that best meets the needs of the district,” based on price, products, service capabilities and vendor qualifications.” The effort to hire a PR firm comes as the district’s spending on communications continues to rise sharply. In the last six months of 2013, the dis-

Vote to Modernize IREA’s Articles of Incorporation! Mail ballots will be sent out in February asking IREA’s member-owners to approve amended and restated Articles of Incorporation.

trict spent about $325,000 in communications-related expenses — nearly six times as much as it did in the same six-month period in 2012. About $217,500 of that was paid to Educational Measures LLC to redesign the district’s website. Some community members debate the necessity of enhanced communications, including hiring a PR firm. “As a taxpayer, parent, and grandparent, I question why DCSD needs a public relations firm when it has full-time communications professionals,” said Highlands Ranch resident and business owner Judith Purcell. “In its request for proposals, DCSD listed `crisis communications’ assistance as (a) PR need. However, DCSD could avoid this need and the associated expense if it stopped creating crises of public confi-

dence in Douglas County.” Also part of the spike in spending in the latter half of 2013 was $33,000 paid to marketing company Strategic Advantage, reportedly contracted to help write content and produce stories for the district’s electronic and printed newsletters. District officials say the increase is an investment that pays off in much-improved communications. “Two years ago, one of the biggest complaints we heard was regarding the quality and quantity of communication,” Hans wrote. “Over the last two years, we have invested in our district communication efforts to improve quality and consistency, as well as developing new tools.”

Former tech innovator to lead libraries By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Robert “Bob” Pasicznyuk has a reputation for changing the face of a library with technology tools. He was hired in 2004 when Jamie LaRue, now retired, was Douglas County Libraries’ executive director. Then in 2009, Pasicznyuk — pronounced Paz-nick — left his senior technology role when Cedar Rapids, Iowa’s library system, devastated by floods, needed a leader that could bring it back. He reportedly brought it back. Now, he’s back. The Douglas County Libraries Board of Trustees has selected him to replace the recently retired LaRue as the next director of the libraries and he’ll assume his new role on May 5. “With today’s announcement, we feel we have found the right person for the job. We chose Bob because of his experience with strategic planning, his broad knowledge of information technology, and his overall business acumen,” said Bob Morris, Douglas County Libraries board president.



  

In Iowa, Pasicznyuk was project manager for two simultaneous building projects: a $46.6 million flagship library and a $2.5 million branch library. In addition, he reversed a decade of eroding library support and steady decline, according to a news release. “Over the years, Bob has been acknowledged numerous times by both his peers and community and Pasicznyuk is recognized as a leader in libraries,” Morris said. “He impressed us as a strategist and outstanding project leader. We are excited to have him join the team at Douglas County Libraries and lead the organization.” Pasicznyuk said some people perceive libraries as being only warehouses for books. But he said LaRue helped him realize how libraries could assist in fulfilling people’s dreams… and become the heart of the community. He said in Cedar Rapids, the main library is now the community’s hub. “We just booked our 19th wedding in

the building,” he said. And the high school seniors in a town 30 minutes away want to hold their prom at the library because it’s viewed as being that cool. But Pasicznyuk said he’s returning in part because Colorado is deeply in his blood — and because of this tremendous opportunity with another stellar staff. “I am honored and humbled by this opportunity. I look forward to joining this innovative organization and working in a community I have always thought so highly of. I am excited to work with the talented

staff and our community partners as we continue to advocate for literacy and lifelong learning.” LaRue, who retired in January after 23 years, said recently that Pasicznyuk was the “key architect of the district’s move to self check.” LaRue also described Pasicznyuk as a bright and insightful man with a wonderfully dry sense of humor. He is also an historian and technologist by inclination. If he were to compare Pasicznyuk to any book or book’s character, “I’d put him as Lincoln in `Team of Rivals,’ ” he said.

Free lunch program expanded under new bill Students would be eligible through high school By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com More Colorado school children would be eligible for free lunch at school, under a bill that passed a House committee on Feb. 10. Right now, kids who qualify for the state’s reduced lunch program can have their meal “co-pays” waived through the second grade. House Bill 1156 would make free lunches available to children through high school, if they qualify. “The reality is, when these families are hurting, they are hurting,” said Rep. Dominick Moreno, D-Commerce City, the bill’s sponsor. “And that doesn’t stop at the third grade.” Moreno — who once was a recipient of free and reduced lunches when he was a child — has paid close attention to school

nutrition issues since he first came into office last year. During the 2013 legislative session, Moreno passed a bill that would require schools with high poverty rates to serve breakfast at the start of the school day. Moreno’s new effort passed the House Education Committee following a partyline vote of 7-6. Republicans balked primarily because the bill would send more money to the program that handles school meals in Colorado, which has been the recent target of an audit for mismanagement of state funds. The bill would mean that parents like Tamara Frawley of Thornton would no longer be required to pay any sort of reduced fee for their kids’ meals. In Frawley’s case, that amounts to about 40 cents a day, per child. “Forty cents doesn’t sound like a lot, but when you’re on a limited budget, it’s an insurmountable amount” she said. Frawley, who has two children who are enrolled at Mapleton Public Schools in Adams County, said she has struggled to pay bills ever since her husband was diagnosed

with cancer six years ago. “I hold down a 40-hour a week job and two temp jobs, but it still isn’t enough,” Frawley told committee members. Because many more children would be eligible for free lunches, the bill would require an additional $2.4 million in annual state funds to go to a state-run school meal program. However, those costs would be offset — and then some — through federal reimbursement through the National School Lunch Act. Federal reimbursement is expected to be substantially higher than what the state will be paying for the additions to the free lunch program. Mapleton Schools, through a pilot program, currently covers the reduced lunch costs of their students, a district where more than 70 percent of children qualify for the program. “We serve a community that is heavily impacted by the effects of poverty,” said Virgina Styles, assistant director of Mapleton Schools, who was reading a letter in support of the bill from Superintendent Charlotte Ciancio.

But committee Republicans wondered whether it was a good idea to send more funds to a state program that is not doing a good job of handling money right now. Auditors recently determined that the state’s School Lunch and Breakfast Programs forfeited more than $2 million in federal grants and reimbursement dollars, going back to 2009. Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, offered an amendment to Moreno’s bill that would set up an oversight task force to make sure that the money was appropriated correctly. “It hardly makes sense to expand a program that has obvious problems,” McNulty said. McNulty’s amendment failed. Moreno said he trusts that Department of Education administrators will implement the audit’s recommendations so that there will not be any problems going forward. The bill now heads to the House Appropriations Committee before it receives a vote from the full House.

As expected, Republican efforts to repeal a law that limits ammunition magazine rounds failed in majority Democrat legislative committees last week. But one of the hearings produced unexpected comments from a lawmaker who would end up having to do some damage control over his remarks concerning events that took place during the 2012 Aurora theater shooting. Sen. Bernie Herpin, R-Colorado Springs, told the Senate’s State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee on Feb. 12 that it may have been a “good thing” that Aurora theater shooting suspect James Holmes was carrying a 100-round ammunition magazine because it jammed. “If he had instead had four, five, six 15-round magazines, no telling how much damage he could have done until a good guy showed up,” Herpin told committee members. Herpin was trying to make the point that larger capacity magazines are unreliable and that fewer people were killed or injured because Holmes’ weapon jammed. He later apologized for coming across as being insensitive. Herpin’s comments were met with outrage by Tom Sullivan, the father of 27-year-old Alex Sullivan, who was one of 12 people who were killed in

the July 2012 Aurora theater shooting. “I’ve had a lot of thoughts since July 20, 2012, and I can tell you that I never have once thought that it was better that that man walked into that theater with a 100-round drum, and opened fire on the over 200 people that were in that theater,” Sullivan said. Herpin is a freshman senator who won a recall election against J o h n Morse last fall. Morse, Report who at the time was Senate president, was one of three Democratic lawmakers who were either voted out of office or resigned in the face of recall elections over their votes on gun bills last year. Herpin isn’t the only lawmaker who has raised eyebrows for comments having to do with gun legislation. Last year, Rep. Joe Salazar and then-Sen. Evie Hudak, both Democrats, made comments regarding rape and gun violence that, like Herpin’s comments last week, made national headlines. Herpin was in front of the committee to sponsor a bill that sought to repeal a law from last year that banned ammunition magazines from carrying more than 15 rounds. The bill was one of two GOP-sponsored repeals that failed at the Legislature last week, each one falling on party-line votes in the Democrat-led General Assembly. Two days earlier, a House committee rejected a separate effort sponsored by Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, which also sought to repeal the maga-

Capitol

zine limit law. Holbert argued that limiting the number of rounds in a magazine is arbitrary and does nothing to promote public safety. “This legislation doesn’t make us safer,” Holbert said. “It doesn’t limit a criminal’s ability to do something monstrous. All it does is punish a lawabiding citizen.” But Democrats and other supporters of magazine limits say the law saves lives because the fewer rounds that a killer can get off, the less damage they can cause. The law was drafted in response to recent mass shootings like the one in Aurora and at Connecticut’s Sandy Hook Elementary School the same year. Jane Dougherty’s sister, Mary Sherlock, was a school psychologist who was killed during the Sandy Hook massacre. “Twenty-six souls were lost in fewer than 11 minutes that Friday morning,” Dougherty said. “We hear over and over again about gun owners having their rights taken away from them. … I ask you, ‘What about my sister’s rights?’” In a nod to the ramifications from last year’s recall efforts, Holbert tried to appeal to Democrats on the committee to seize the “political opportunity” by supporting his repeal bill. “Are you willing to risk political capital?” Holbert said. “I ask you to please keep an open mind.” But Rep. Mike Foote, D-Lafayette, took exception to Holbert’s comments. “I don’t think we should be making a decision based on what’s politically expedient or politically smart,” Foote said.

School board transparency bill advances Passes through House following lengthy debate By Vic Vela

vvela@ coloradocommunitymedia.com A contentious House floor debate preceded the Feb. 13 passage of a bill that aims to shine more light on school board members’ private discussions. House Bill 1110 would expand current law that already requires the recording of all conversations that take place during school board executive sessions to include those involving attorney-client discussions. Most Democrats supported the measure, saying that it holds elected officials accountable for what happens behind closed doors and bol-

sters the public’s right to know. But all House Republicans joined three Democrats in voting against the bill. Several spoke out against the bill, calling it an affront to attorney-client privilege. They also argued that the bill unfairly targets a handful of school boards that have been the subject of controversy over executive session matters, including boards in Douglas and Jefferson counties. “This is targeted and punitive to a few school districts to this state,” Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch said. “We should not use the power of legislation to punish.” McNulty’s comments came during a Feb. 12 House floor debate. The House passed the bill the next day on a 34-31 vote. Under the bill, sponsored by Rep. Cherylin Peniston, D-Westminster,

recordings of attorney-client discussions during executive sessions would be stored and would be made available only through a successful petition through the courts. If a filer believes that what was being handled during executive session doesn’t warrant a behind-closeddoors discussion, a judge would listen to the recording to determine whether that information should be made public. If the judge believes that to be the case, the recordings would be released. The bill also requires that school boards post the topics that are discussed in executive session, the same way they do through the posting of board meeting minutes. The topics would require enough of a summary Board continues on Page 9

Bully

aggressive vocalizations are deployed to de-escalate or turn a situation in their favor. In the lobby of his studio on Pony Express Drive, Luft points to a word written on the wall: confidence. It’s a common

theme in the martial arts world and it often comes into play before physical toughness is required. Luft says the process of learning to defend oneself from physical attacks instills a confidence that makes it less likely for a person to be attacked verbally or physically. However, both can still happen. Chris Turnquist, master instructor at the Parker Academy of Martial Arts, says the majority of bullying situations are verbal, but preparedness for the ones that aren’t is a routine part of class. “Obviously, things can escalate and at that point, it’s good to know what to do when you don’t want to get yourself hurt or get into a situation where you hurt some-

one else,” said Turnquist, who has been teaching martial arts for nearly 12 years. Every few months, Tiger Rock offers a bully prevention seminar and adds something new each time. They teach, for example, how to fall correctly, how to reverse a position if a bully gets on top and how to prevent a chokehold. Both Tiger Rock and Parker Academy of Martial Arts use roleplaying to reenact common bullying scenarios, enabling kids to practice their defensive moves in an adrenalized state. “There are ways you can get out of stuff without seriously hurting someone,” Turnquist said. “The goal is to protect ourselves and make sure it doesn’t happen again.”

in your school or community.’ “Ask them specifically: ‘I need to know what’s going on for you. Is everything OK with you? Have you had thoughts of suicide yourself?’ And then the important thing is to really listen to what their response is. Usually, if you ask somebody a question about suicide directly, they will let you know.” If parents have any concerns, Eveleigh suggested contacting their student’s school counselor. While Thomas sees no evidence the four recent deaths are related, teens are particu-

larly susceptible to suicide contagion — an amplification of self-destructive emotions triggered by the death of a friend or peer. “It’s incredibly important kids don’t promise confidentiality,” Eveleigh said. “They should tell a trusted adult if they are concerned about a friend of theirs — a school guidance counselor, teacher, anybody who is likely to take action. “The definition of a good friend isn’t promising confidentiality. It’s promising, `If you need help, I’m going to connect you to some help because what you’ve got to tell me is too important to keep secret.’ ”

Students also can help with gestures and words that may seem small, but can have vital impact. “Being friendly to people, smiling at people in the corridor, being proactively social — that kind of peer support is really important,” Eveleigh said. “Being able to say, `You look a little lonely. Would you like to have lunch with us?’ Any positive kind of social engagement like that is huge.” Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people nationally. It is second in Colorado, according to the 2011 biannual Healthy Kids Colorado Survey.

confident in defending themselves,” Quinn says. Kids can also ignore the taunts, agree with them to take away control, or rob the bully of the emotional reaction they are seeking, he said.

Second Wind Fund executive director Richard Eveleigh said Douglas County parents need to talk with their teens, and students need to talk to one another. “If you’re a parent, it’s absolutely important you have the conversation with your kids,” he said. “That is to say something like, ‘Hey, obviously there’s been a lot of talk recently about the tragedy of these suicides

of what was being discussed during the session, but wouldn’t have to go into detail of the privileged conversations. “The value of this bill is for the community who wants to know whether our elected officials are using their privileges correctly,” Peniston said prior to the House vote. “It’s a transparency issue.” Peniston insisted that the bill is not directed at any particular school district. But Republicans believe otherwise. The Douglas County School Board has been the subject of criticism over its use of executive sessions. The conservative board has pushed for controversial reforms, including those that would limit the influence of teachers’ unions. New conservative members of the Jefferson County Public Schools Board of Education have also received criticism. In De-

Rep. Kevin Priola, R-Henderson, blasted the “terrible” bill, not only for what he feels is the unfair targeting of certain school boards, but for also being a veiled reaction to last year’s school board elections across the state. Last November, reform candidates were swept into school board posts at Douglas and Jefferson Counties. “I can’t believe how obvious of a target this bill is of certain school boards in this state, because of the fact that elections were won by reform groups in this state,” Priola said. Republicans also took aim at what they believe is a violation of attorney-client privilege. Rep. Bob Gardner, a Colorado Springs Republican who is also a lawyer, took to the well often to offer sharp criticism of the legislation. Gardner said the bill would make it difficult for attorneys to have candid conversations with their clients and it would soak up judge’s use of time.

opinions / yours and ours

Freshen up with the newness factor Don’t you just love the feeling of receiving something new or experiencing something new? I sure do. And I am a traditionalist by nature, some may even say very set in my ways and in my thinking. And yet I still enjoy that feeling or sense of “newness.” Whether it’s a fresh coat of paint, new hardwood floors or carpeting, the smell of a new car, the feeling of new furniture or a new mattress, or maybe a new home or place to live, there is just something fresh, clean, and exciting about “new.” They even sell stuff that we can spray that fills our cars with that “new car” scent. Maybe it’s a new job or a new position. Maybe it’s a new city or location. And maybe, just maybe, it’s the sense of adventure that something or anything new creates in our hearts and minds. The “newness” factor is cool for sure,

but I also believe there is a lot to be said for just viewing some of what we already do, some of what we already have, and a little of who we are through a “new” lens. You see “new” doesn’t always have to be brand new, “new” can be perspective too. Our car with a fresh coat of clean and wax, windows cleaned and maybe even a little of that new car air freshener could bring back a little of that same excitement as when we first purchased the car.

letter to the editor Biased school coverage

I am wondering if you need a donation to buy a thesaurus for your school board reporter, Jane Reuter. It seems “controversial” is the only word she knows to describe policies implemented by a board elected by a majority of Douglas County residents. Her one-sizefits-all approach to describing every action by a duly elected body does a disservice to your readers. Douglas County is at the forefront of

school change. Some things will work; some probably won’t. But my own experience with the Douglas County School system and government innovation in general, is that there is plenty of room for improvement, and change is never easy with a bureaucracy. How about some real journalism and balanced assessments? Maintaining the status quo should never be good enough. Wendy Allen Highlands Ranch

A look at long-term investing Investors are not likely to be successful if they view their portfolio as something that needs to perform every day. This age of instant gratification and constant information has trained us to focus on the wrong calendar. Instead of worrying about this month, quarter or year, we should be looking at different phases of the life cycle and invest based on our own time clock. One of my favorite authors, Dr. Ken Dychtwald states that our life span used to be linear. We went to school, got a job for life, lived in the same house for at least 30 years, retired with a pension and died of old age. Now we have different phases of life. We may go to back to school several times, change jobs and houses on average five times or more, and … there will be no pension. We may also have phases of high expenses such as college or relocation, elder care or raising more than one generation. Our life currently moves in cycles rather than a straight path. Our investments should reflect this. It is contrary that the longer we live and the more dynamic our life patterns are, the shorter-term our investments become. Ideally, it makes more sense to invest one pool of money — such as an IRA or 401k — for 30 or 40 years. Therefore, it does not matter what the account balance is today or tomorrow, in fact you might consider choosing investments more for an inflation hedge, than current return. Otherwise you could find yourself halfway through retirement with no cost of living clause in your income. Based on Ned Davis Research, the average holding period of stocks has decreased from 20 years from 1939 through 1970 down to just 1.67 years in 2012. This can be based in part on the fact that until the 1970s, the typical investor was a wealthy family passing down holdings from one generation to the next. Today, the largest share of investment activity is driven by retail investors. Historically, the focus was on fundamentals and long-term growth. Today, the focus is on today’s news or economic report. The media is partly to blame as they are paid to get your attention. This works best through hype and making insignificant information sound exciting. The aver-

age investor does not know what commentary is relevant and what is general noise since the announcers do such a good job of reporting with enthusiasm. Better use of technology also has a role in the short-term focus. A vast amount of timely information is available in every medium at no cost. You don’t have to listen to Granddad explain about the Great Depression and what price he bought the blue chip stock you now own, you can find anything you need in an instant. This constant stream of data causes us to think we could bypass losses by understanding the latest economic reports. In reality, markets work in very long cycles, rarely impacted by one quarter’s earnings or jobs report. Returns compound over time, which gives the investor the best riskadjusted returns. Making short-term changes rarely enhances your long-term performance. It is important to have a strategy and time frame for each goal. Enlist the help of an advisor or mentor to diversify your investments and rebalance your portfolio to keep profits working for you. We don’t have to go back two generations to learn how to invest. We should take advantage of all the tools and technology we have today, but filter out the noise that causes us to focus on the day or month instead of our life goals.

If our jobs have become mundane or boring, you know the same-old, same-old, day in and day out, maybe it’s because we stopped looking at the work we do with fresh eyes or inspired meaning. Sometimes the best “new” job is the job we already have, we just have to adjust our scope and look for the good, even look for opportunities to do something new that will make things better for ourselves, our associates, and even our clients. Think about it, we can be in control of creating something new, viewing something new, and experiencing new things in our existing world without ever having to actually purchase something brand new. Now don’t get me wrong, I love a new car, I love new golf clubs and skis just as much as the next golf and ski enthusiast, however, what I really enjoy is having the ability to look at my existing situation and

surroundings and finding ways to build “newness” into those areas that need a little freshening up or excitement. Our homes, friends, cars, relationships, jobs, workout routines, and just about everything we have or do can be enhanced if we would just apply a little “newness” imagination and fresh coat of thinking to each and every situation. How about you? Is there an area in your life that could benefit from a little bit of the “newness” factor? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we look at every aspect of our lives through a “new” lens, it will be a better than good week.

What’s that you say? It’s always something, isn’t it? Now there is something called “vocal fry.” I can’t even explain it. You will know it when you hear it. High school girls do it. It’s referred to as a “closing drawl.” It happens at the end of a sentence. There is something called “uptalk,” which also occurs at the end of a sentence. It turns everything into a question, as if something needs to be filled in by the listener. I had — had — a friend who began every statement with a question, which I felt obliged to answer. “Do you know how some people bite their forks? I think it is a sign of insecurity.” I never understood why she didn’t just say, “I think it’s a sign of insecurity when people bite their forks.” Perhaps it is her way of attempting to draw a listener into the conversation. She wondered why we stopped meeting for lunch. Also, have you ever “ssssshhhhhed!” someone in a library or a theater? It has a name. It’s called a “fortis voiceless alveopalatal fricative.” It’s just as annoying as whatever it is that you are “ssssshhhhhing.” Bob Hope used to make a throat sound in his movies whenever something startled him, or whenever Dorothy Lamour had a sarong malfunction. I used to practice it on Saturday mornings, and I finally got it. Now I find out it has a name. “Pulmonic-ingressive breathyvoiced rising tone neutral vowel.” It just sounds like someone who is partially gagging and gasping at the same time. Do you know anyone who tongueclucks? I don’t hear that very much anymore. It’s often a sign — a sound — of disapproval. We all misbehave much more than we used to, so it would be non-stop tongue-clucking if we didn’t think we would

be tongue-clucked right back. A tongue-cluck is referred to as an “alveolar, alveopalatal, or postalveolar click.” I have difficulty with some words. I have a heck of a time saying “Social Security.” And I can’t say “Little Italy” without taking it real slow. I once was told I had a “liquid L,” and that’s why pronouncing “Little Italy” is difficult. My parents named a dog “Lolly.” I refused to call her that. I called her “Janet” instead. I think I might have enjoyed studying speech disorders and speech impediments, and regional speech characteristics, like Professor Henry Higgins did in George Bernard Shaw’s “Pygmalion.” (“Pygmalion” was made as a film, and titled “My Fair Lady.”) I think most of us can tell when someone is from Fargo, or Brooklyn or Mayberry. It’s not as easy as it once was, because we all move around more than we used to, and accents are intermixed. No one would ever be able to pinpoint my regional speech. It has no quirks. It’s quirkless. There’s probably a long name for it though. But it’s not “velar-ingressive linguadental fricative.” That’s sucking your teeth.

Core standards delay rejected Bill would have pushed back start date of new school testing standards

‘(Common Core) is a sticky jar of molasses that was voted on by a State Board of Education that didn’t know what it was doing.’

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A Republican-sponsored effort to delay implementation of controversial new standardized school testing mandates failed in a legislative committee on Feb. 13. The federal Common Core State Standards Initiative sets guidelines for what every K-12 student should know about math and language arts at each grade level, in hopes that the kids will be better prepared for college. During a Feb. 13 Senate Education Committee hearing, supporters of the initiative — which the state adopted into the Colorado Academic Standards in 2010 — lauded the assessment as an optimum way to set minimum standards that give kids the knowledge and skills they need to be successful in life. But opponents insisted that the standards are expensive, burdensome on districts to implement, and also argued that students are drowning in assessment tests already. That polarization was the motivation behind Senate Bill 136, which would have delayed all new, statewide assessments for a year. It also would have set up a task force designed to look into the adoption and implementation of the Colorado Academic Standards in an effort to determine whether the state’s participation in the Common Core initiative is worth it. “All it’s asking for is nothing special; no changes, just a time out,” said Sen. Vicky Marble, R-Fort Collins, the bill’s sponsor. Marble told the committee that implementation costs associated with the stan-

Sandra Stotsky, opponent of Common Core standards dardized tests are “enormous” and that the state would benefit from the delay. But the majority of committee members didn’t agree. The Democrat-led committee rejected Marble’s bill on a 4-3 party-line vote, following a lengthy and often emotional hearing that even resulted in a couple of lawmakers trying to hold back tears. Although he heard testimony that “will give him a lot of things to think about going home,” Sen. Mike Johnston, D-Denver, said he is supportive of the standards. “I am still a believer that we can build a set of rigorous standards,” he said. “I don’t think the answer is to pause on this.” States can voluntarily adopt Common Core standards and 45 states and the District of Columbia have done so. Colorado’s State Board of Education decided to adopt the standards after a study determined that the federal math and English standards were closely aligned with those that the state was already using. Colorado schools adopted the standards through its participation of the PARCC multi-state consortia — Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers. Through PARCC, Common Core testing is set to begin next year. Testimony on Marble’s bill lasted several hours inside the Old Supreme Court Chambers, the Capitol’s largest committee hearing room. Supporters of the bill cited several reasons as to why committee mem-

bers should put the standards on hold. Sandra Stotsky, a longtime educator and national opponent of Common Core standards, began her testimony by telling the committee that New York lawmakers had voted the day before to delay its Common Core implementation for three years. She said that New York has it right because Common Core’s math standards don’t prepare them for the next instructional levels and that the ability of local school boards to dictate their own curriculum “was wiped out overnight” by the 2010 State Board of Education decision. “(Common Core) is a sticky jar of molasses that was voted on by a State Board of Education that didn’t know what it was doing,” she said. Others were critical of the demands that assessments place on school districts’ technology. Stephanie Pico of the Cherry Creek School District said that lack of human and technological resources cause stress “and a sense of helplessness” among teachers who are already overwhelmed by technology issues. Others testified that the federal standards dictate curriculum, which undermines local control of how schools should operate. Monument Academy Principal Lis Richard told the committee that the connection between assessment standards and curriculum is “inseparable.” “I believe the intentions have been good, but ill advised,” she said. “Adopting a

national form of standards has never been proven to reform education. Our footprint for the instructional time we’re going to miss (leaves us) very concerned.” Others said that students are buried under assessment tests to begin with. George Sader, a former educator, testified that assessment standards like Common Core force a child who is slow to develop in school “to run faster than he can run.” “We’re reaching the point where we test more than we teach,” Sader said. But Common Core supporters said the standards help students develop critical thinking across all instructional areas and that it helps develop equity in the learning system. Elizabeth Miner, a physical education teacher who was named the 2014 Colorado Teacher of the Year, said the uniform standards provide students “a consistent and clear understanding of what students are required to learn.” And Jessica Keigan, a teacher at Thornton’s Horizon High School, said the standards “help kids grasp complex ideas.” Kerrie Dallman, president of the Colorado Education Association, said her organization strongly supports Colorado Academic Standards, which she said affords equal footing for students without placing a ceiling on what they can learn. Dallman said the problem isn’t with assessment testing, but with teachers’ lack of resources in the classroom. “A lack of resources negatively impact implementation of those standards,” she said. “It’s the perfect storm of implementation and lack of resources.” The hearing, which lasted more than six hours, became emotional toward the end with one witness offering tearful testimony in support of the bill. And Marble and Sen. Nancy Todd, D-Aurora, each had to compose themselves prior to the committee wrapping up the hearing.

LEGISLATIVE NEWS IN A HURRY Bar closing bill moving forward

Legislation that would allow bars to stay open past 2 a.m. continues to move forward. The House on Feb. 14 gave initial approval to House Bill 1132 and was expected to send the measure to the Senate following a final vote this week. Current state law prohibits bars from operating between 2 and 7 a.m. The bill would allow bars to stay open as late as 4:30 a.m., with local government approval. The bill, which is sponsored by Rep. Crisanta Duran, D-Denver, was drafted in response to problems in downtown Denver, where police have had to respond to several violent situations as bar patrons exit drinking establishments at closing time. Supporters say by allowing bars to stay open later, there would be fewer people leaving bars at the same time. However, opponents believe the bill just puts more drunks on the streets later into the morning.

Flood legislation heads to governor

County governments would be allowed to use general fund dollars for flood-related repairs, under a bill that’s now headed to the governor’s desk. Senate Bill 7 allows county governments to tap into their general funds for bridge and road repairs that become necessary as a result of a natural disaster occurring, such as flooding. The bill has cleared both legislative chambers, most recently going through the House on Feb. 10. Right now, counties are prohibited from using funds for that purpose. The bill would give more leeway to local governments, so long as the governor declares a disaster emergency within that county.

Fallen deputy honored

Lawmakers last week paid tribute to a

Jefferson County Sheriff’s deputy who was killed in the line of duty. A 27-year veteran of the sheriff’s office, Sgt. David Baldwin died on Jan. 26 in a head-on collision on Highway 93. Lawmakers held a memorial tribute to Baldwin on Feb. 11, with Rep. Sue Schafer, D-Wheat Ridge, lauding Baldwin’s “highly-decorated” career. “We honor him for his dedication and service,” Schafer said. The tribute included a Colorado flag that was presented to Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office members.

College Affordability Act clears committee A bill that would cap college tuition rate hikes and pump more money into financial aid cleared its first legislative hurdle on Feb. 12 as the Senate Education Committee passed Senate Bill 1, the College Affordability Act, following a 6-1 bipartisan vote. The bill would cap tuition rate hikes at 6 percent annually and would allocate an additional $100 million for colleges, with much of that money going toward student financial aid. The bill now heads to the Senate Appropriations Committee.

Prison credit bill moves forward A bill that could impact a prisoner’s “good-time” credit cleared a House committee last week. House Bill 1114 would give the Department of Corrections flexibility to withdraw earned time credit that they receive for good behavior behind bars, if they re-offend in prison. The bill, which is sponsored by Reps. Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs, and Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, received unanimous support from the House Judiciary Committee on Feb. 13 and now heads to the House for a full vote there.

Screening saves man’s life Ed Peterson got first colonoscopy at age 69 By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Ed Peterson readily admits he was 19 years late in getting his first colonoscopy. It’s the type of screening that’s easy to put off, especially when there is no cause for alarm. But when Peterson got winded trying to keep up with his family during a March 2013 vacation to Disneyland, he decided a physical was in order. By chance, his physician asked if he had ever had a colonoscopy. “None of the doctors I’ve ever gone to really made a big issue out of a colonoscopy and no one I’ve ever known has had colon cancer,” he said. A month later, the 69-year-old’s screening at Parker Adventist Hospital revealed an apricot-sized tumor that almost completely blocked his small intestine. Peterson was still under anesthesia when Dr. John Sun delivered the news to Peterson’s wife, Della, who was sitting in the waiting room. Coincidentally, she had already gone through this once. Her first husband died after a long battle with cancer. Peterson, her husband of five years, had been the “healthiest man I know” up to that point. “I was just waiting, had no anticipation of anything being wrong. It was just a normal routine procedure,” she said. “And Dr. Sun came out and said, `I am so glad he came in’ and he showed me the picture they had taken of the tumor.” Surgery was immediately scheduled and a PET scan was performed. It confirmed that the stage-2 cancer, which Sun

PREVENTION TO TREATMENT Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancerrelated deaths, yet among the most treatable of all cancers if caught early. Join colon and rectal surgeon John Sun, MD, for an event called “Colorectal Cancer: From Prevention to Treatment” to learn how colonoscopies have changed over the years. The seminar runs from noon to 1:30 p.m. March 12 in the Inspiration Conference Center at Parker Adventist Hospital. Registration is required by calling 303-777-6877, ext. 1.

FIXED PRICE OFFERED Parker Adventist Hospital is exclusively offering a $1,000 fixed priced colonoscopy to uninsured patients. This includes the entire procedure including anesthesiologist and all lab costs, so those without health insurance don’t need to worry about any hidden fees.

believes had been growing for five to six years before it was caught, had not spread to his lymph nodes. “That was the good news, so I was glad we caught it when we did, and obviously it saved my life,” said Peterson, who lives in Saddle Rock in southeast Aurora. All of the information — from surgical tools to survival rates to recovery timeframe — was laid out on the table.

Now that it’s known that colon cancer runs in the family, his children have been instructed to get regular colonoscopies starting at age 40. The general recommended age for a first colonoscopy, after extended dialogue between insurance companies and medical associations, is 50 years old, although Sun believes it should be earlier. However, insurance will not cover colonoscopies before age 50, Sun said. Sun says colonoscopies are just as important as regular mammograms for women, and actually have a higher yield in discovering polyps or cancerous growths.

“The most common symptom of colon cancer is no symptoms, and that’s why screening is so important,” he said. The entire procedure, from pre-op to post-op, has gotten easier on patients and it takes 10-35 minutes. Doctors have found better ways to find abnormalities and use anesthesia to reduce discomfort. Peterson had surgery two days after his four-year anniversary, and his wife could not be more grateful for the outcome. Della Peterson is unquestionably devoted to her husband, but she has gained a real affinity for Sun. “I love that man,” she said, referring to the doctor as an advocate for his patients. “I trust him with Ed’s life.”

Siblings shine in Puppy Bowl Franktown family fostered TV stars Loren and Laney By Chris Michlewicz

At least one team from Colorado had a good showing on Super Bowl Sunday. Loren and Laney, brother and sister Brittany Spaniel mixes that were fostered in Franktown, got starring roles Feb. 2 in Puppy Bowl X, the canine alternative to the big game aired annually by the Animal Planet. The program features pups from around the country that need a home, and Loren and Laney made the most of their moment in the spotlight by each adorably scoring a touchdown. Lisa Petri, president and volunteer at the Colorado Animal Welfare League in Castle Rock, said she was flooded with phone calls after the Puppy Bowl. Compassionate viewers reached out in the hopes that one of the siblings was still available, but, alas, the segment was filmed in October, shortly before Loren and Laney were adopted by families in Golden and Wellington, respectively. “People were very interested in them,” said Petri, who attended a Puppy Bowl party at the Watering Bowl in Denver and discovered the messages the next day. Petri, a Franktown resident, raised Loren and Laney during their first three months. She received a chance phone call from the Animal Planet in August asking for entries for the 10th installment of the popular Pup-

py Bowl. More than a month after sending in audition tapes, both Brittany Spaniels received an invitation to New York. With help from Petri and her husband, Kyle, the puppies packed their beds, food, bowls, toys, chewies, leashes and vet records and headed off to the airport. “Growing up in Franktown, Colorado, the puppies had never seen anything like New York City,” reads a travel log entry on the welfare league’s website. “Neither one of them had ever walked on a leash, been to a dog park or (been) driven in a taxi.” When it came time to perform, the duo delivered. They posed valiantly for “hero shots” that soon went viral online, and the Petris’ voices were taped while they described the siblings. The green room where the stars were staged was littered with more than 60 frolicking puppies and their foster parents. “Laney was in the first group and was quickly whisked off to perform. What a star!” Petri wrote in the travel log entry. “Kyle and I could watch on the television in the green room and we could see how well she was doing. She played with all the puppies and even splashed in the water bowl.” The hopefuls who wanted to adopt the puppies were disappointed, but Loren and Laney did their job by highlighting the importance of giving dogs without families a forever home.

Sonodas LoDo location closes

Kenny Sonoda, founding father of the Sonodas chain of sushi restaurants, has opted to call it quits on his LoDo eatery at 1620 Market St. after nearly 19 years. Sonoda, 65, is trying to retire, but his original spot at 3108 S. Parker Road in Aurora, a place he opened in 1995, will remain open. Here’s what Sonoda posted on www. sonodassushi.com: “With over 26 years in the business now behind me the time has come for me to hand up the knives and announce my retirement. And yet it is with more than a bit of sadness that I announce the closure of my Downtown Restaurant on Market Street on Feb. 15. “In 1973 I first came to Denver, Colorado, to help build and open the Gasho of Japan, a Japanese Hibachi style steak house in downtown Denver (1627 Curtis St.). In 1976, I returned to Denver to build a freestanding building of Gasho of Japan Restaurant. This time I build a replica of a 400-year-old Gasho farmhouse, found in Takayama City of Japan, the sister city to Denver, Colorado. This Gasho of Japan restaurant was located in DTC on Belleview and I-25 where Shanahan’s is currently standing.”

Visit the worlds of the Maya Denver Museum of Nature and Science travels back 13 centuries By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Excitement is high as the Denver Museum of Nature and Science opens a new educational wing and a major exhibit on the ancient — and living — Maya: “Maya: Hidden Worlds Revealed.” The exhibit, organized through collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota; Museum of Science, Boston and San Diego Natural History Museum, is the largest exhibition about the Maya civilization ever to be displayed in the United States, according to the DMNS. It will run until Aug. 24. It combines artifacts that have not been exhibited before with hands-on activities and immersive environments such as an underworld cave, a recreation of a night sky and a mural room, enabling the visitor to explore once elegant cities as well as today’s Maya people. As they enter the exhibit, families will be introduced to the giant ceiba tree, which connected cities and villages with Heaven and the underworld, through its deep root system.

The exhibit looks at royalty as well as the common people — laborers and servants. Replicas of ancient stone structures carry stories of royal dynasties. As these structures are rediscovered, the understanding of an ancient world remains a study in progress. Families will learn how archaeologists decipher the glyphs they discover —and kids can learn to make their own glyph, one of many interactive opportunities. A timeline explores the history and translation of the glyphs. The Maya were sophisticated astronomers and a new show in the Gates Planetarium will elaborate on Mayan skies, in addition to materials in the Anschutz Gallery exhibit.

Art community urged to ‘make contact’ Center for Visual Art brings artists together By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Metropolitan State University art faculty has developed “Making Contact,” a new exhibit running Feb. 21 to April 5 at its Center for Visual Art, through various kinds of interaction with individual communities: artists, students, alumni, etc. Related events are still developing, according to Creative Director Cecily Cullen. Recently, Cullen writes, there has been increased emphasis in the nonprofit, cultural field on collaboration, with a view to engaging audiences and breaking down barriers between groups of people. The CVA’s mission is to serve as a bridge between the university and the public and “… to provide diverse, high quality art experiences that advance the global urban dialogue.” Art lovers are invited to enter in the dialogue. Artwork by faculty members will connect with their

communities in some way, depending on the individual artist’s inclinations and skills.

No sentimental goodbyes hover in this air. “I realize you’re not actually going to be there to enjoy it … just try to be positive,” she tells him, reinforcing the sense that this marriage has meant 40 years of unhappy days for her.

Son Curtis (Preston Lee Britton), a short story writer, appears with a huge — and, given the circumstances, entirely inappropriate — plant and further unpleasantness ensues. Ben can’t accept Curtis’ sexual orientation. Curtis’ encounter with Brian (Nathan Bock) in Act II adds tarnish. Active playwright Nicky Silver has created an unrelentingly dysfunc-

tional Jewish family — which is not a new concept in dramatic literature. Vintage Theatre’s production of “The Lyons” is a regional premiere of the 2012 Broadway hit. Tart comments on society have been crafted better. Persoff’s Rita has some clever lines that lighten the play on occasion and this veteran actress makes the most of the part, but Silver’s script doesn’t allow these otherwise skilled actors much room for the comic relief it needs to avoid being one-note — a deeply minor note. Darcy Kennedy, as a no-nonsense nurse, offers some relief and the play’s ending twists into the sunshine — sort of... Given a choice, I’ll go for a new play almost every time and Vintage is to be complimented of giving it a production, but the reward from a new or unique perspective was missing for this viewer.

Woman thrives with experimental cancer drug Centennial’s Ellen Smith is a ‘pioneer’ in groundbreaking clinical trials By George Lurie

glurie@coloradocommunitymedia.com In March 2008, Willow Creek resident Ellen Smith developed a nasty cough. “My doctor treated it as pneumonia but it just wouldn’t go away,” Smith says. “Finally, he sent me to the emergency room, where they discovered a large mass on one of my lungs. I never was a smoker so it was a big shock.” After Smith had a lung removed in August 2008 and then spent the following year battling lung cancer, her doctor told her the disease had progressed to Stage 4 and nothing more could be done. “It was a death sentence,” says Smith, 64, a former Douglas County kindergarten teacher. “But my family and I just didn’t accept it.” So Smith sought a second opinion, making an appointment at the Anschutz Medical Campus of the University of Colorado Hospital’s Cancer Center. She had heard doctors there were doing clinical trials on an experimental lung cancer drug. Made by the drug company Pfizer, the experimental drug, Crizotinib, was somewhat controversial when it was introduced in 2009, in part because of its cost — nearly $10,000 for a month’s worth of treatment. In June 2009, Smith was accepted into the

CU Center’s program and became one of the first people in the world to receive the experimental drug. “It was exciting, but it was also frightening,” Smith says. “There were no precedents.” Almost immediately after starting the drug regimen, Smith began to feel better. While the Crizotinib did have a number of side effects, it kept her cancer in remission for two years. Smith took full advantage of her new lease on life: She got married again, watched her daughter get married, traveled with her husband to Europe and welcomed three new grandchildren to the world. “I’ve had a fantastic support system,” she says. “There’s a reason I need to be here. There’s a lot to live for.” Smith’s remarkable story of survival is inspiring — and encompasses many “firsts in the world of lung cancer research,” said Dr. Ross Camidge, director of the lung cancer program at the University of Colorado and Smith’s oncologist. “Ellen originally came to see me for a second opinion,” Camidge explains. “When we examined her, we found she had this very specific molecular abnormality in her cancer. Even if you look within the lung cancer, there are very specific subsets of cancer on the molecular level.” Smith’s subsets responded very favorably to Crizotinib. “It’s not a cure but it’s a great way of controlling the cancer,” Camidge said. While Camidge marvels at Smith’s tenac-

During a trip to Italy, Ellen Smith said she was drawn to this tree, which is missing a portion of its trunk but is otherwise healthy. As part of her cancer treatment, Smith had one of her lungs removed. Courtesy photo ity, Smith is also a big fan of her doctor. “He is brilliant and yet so down to earth,” she says. “I couldn’t ask for a better doctor.” In 2011, when Crizotinib stopped working, Smith again became a medical pioneer, undergoing a new kind of “targeted chemotherapy” that Camidge says kept her cancer at bay for another 18 months. “After we learned how the cancer evolves to get around the drug, that’s when we started the new chemo program we call `weeding the garden,’ ” Camidge said. “Ellen has been the first to get these new types of treatment. They have beaten her cancer back — and proven new findings that will benefit many others.” These treatments include what Camidge calls “re-challenging” the cancer with the original targeted drug after intervening with chemotherapy, which the doctor says allows the cancer to “forget” about its previous resistance to the drug. Recently, a very small spot of Smith’s cancer has returned and Camidge has begun treating her with a second-generation version of Crizotinib.

Smith remains upbeat and extremely hopeful that the medical advances she is helping prove will once again save her life. “There is so much research and discovery going on right now,” Smith says. “If you have to have cancer, this is the time to have it.” The Anschutz-University of Colorado Hospital and Cancer Center’s thoracic oncology program is among the top in the nation, with five-year lung cancer survival rates almost four times the national average. “We in Colorado are so lucky to have the Anschutz Center right here on our doorstep,” says Smith. Patients travel from all over the U.S. and from as far away as Asia and South America to be treated at the facility. For many who receive treatment, Camidge says, lung cancer isn’t a death sentence but rather a chronic condition. “If Ellen hadn’t come for that second opinion, she would be dead,” Camidge said. “Sometimes it’s scary to be a pioneer. But Ellen has real steel inside her. When she agreed to treatment, she told me: `Somebody’s got to go first.’ ”

Trader Joe’s comes to south metro area Opening of popular, Polynesian-themed grocery store attracts thousands By George Lurie

glurie@coloradocommunitymedia.com More than 3,000 people shopped and gawked at the new Trader Joe’s in Greenwood Village on Feb. 14, the store’s first day in operation. Rhonda MacDonald made the drive from Castle Rock to check out the new store. “We moved here from San Jose (California) a couple of years ago and the thing I missed most, except for maybe the ocean, was Trader Joe’s,” she said. “None of the other grocery stores around here are quite like them.” Centennial resident and Colorado native Tim Hunter and his daughter Julie spent more than three hours — and several hundred dollars — shopping at the new store on Feb. 14. “I’d heard a lot about Trader Joe’s but had never been to one until today,” said Hunter. “It’s cool. I like the vibe here. And the prices are really good, especially on things like nuts and dried fruit. We’ll be back.” Store manager Dan Guarjardo, whose business card lists his job title as “captain,” said his staff “wasn’t sure what to expect” on opening day. “We’re prepared for a brisk turnout but honestly, I don’t know how many people

will show up,” Guarjardo said. “Hopefully, we’re ready for everything and everybody.” 4.12doors H x opened, 5.04 W Three hours after the crowd control was the biggest challenge. The parking lot was full and checkout Chronicle Parker lines snaked the length of the store as employees, dressed in red T-shirts, answered Run date: Feb. questions about food items and directed customers pushing overflowing shopping carts to available check stands. ThePolynesian-themed, 10,000-squarefoot store, located in the Cherry Hills Marketplace on South University Boulevard at East Orchard Road, features more than a dozen murals of area landmarks, including Fiddler’s Green Amphitheater, the High Line Canal Trail and Dinosaur Park. The California-based company, which started in 1958 as Pronto Markets and changed its name to Trader Joe’s in 1967, has stores in nine states. The company, which opened its first Colorado outlets on Valentine’s Day, has a cult following, fueled in part by its selection of low-cost, private label products. But south metro-area wine aficionados who visited the Greenwood Village Trader Joe’s were disappointed: Only the Denver store (at 8th Ave. and Colorado Blvd.) has a liquor license and sells the company’s popular “two-buck Chuck” wine. “Bummer,” said customer Phil Stevens of Highlands Ranch, when informed by a store employee there was no wine at the Greenwood Village Trader Joe’s. “If I have to drive all the way in to Denver for cheap wine, I’m going to buy a case or two. Not just a few bottles.”

Legend’s Mervin advances to state 132-pound Titan earns trip with third-place finish at 5A regional tourney By Tom Munds

tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Legend High School wrestling coach Nick Rider watched his kids battle hard but only one, 132-pounder Ty Mervin, finished strong enough to advance to the state competition Feb. 20-22 at the Pepsi Center. There were almost 200 wrestlers at the Feb. 13-14 Class 5A Regional Tournament at Coronado High School in Colorado Springs. Mervin,

the third-place finisher in his weight class, was among the 64 wrestlers who advanced to state by finishing in the top four in their respective weight divisions. Mervin had a first-round bye and then scored a 16-0 technical fall in the second round. He lost in the semifinals, but reentered competition in the consolation bracket, where he won his initial consolation match and then defeated Donte Landry of Arapahoe 7-0 for third place. Rider said he brought a young team to regionals that included only four seniors. “The rest are all sophomores,” the coach said. “They are learning under fire. But we have kids who are willing

to battle, give it their best on the mat and that’s all you can ask of athletes.” While only one of the 10 Trojans in the tournament qualified for state, seven of the other nine wrestlers won at least one regional match. “This is the sixth year of wrestling at Legend and I am the team’s fourth head coach,” Rider said. “This is my second year as head coach and the program is getting better. We have a varsity, a junior varsity and about a third of a C-level team. We should have a good foundation for next season.” Rider said he also took on reorganizing the youth wrestling program. He said the program needed a lot of help when he took over and now is improving and growing.

Ponderosa is sending 11 to the State High School Wrestling tournament Feb. 20-22 at the Pepsi Center in Denver. The Mustangs will be represented by seven regional champions: Hayden Karren, Kade Snider, Devin Hoose, Joseph Huber, Torry Williams, Kelton Good and Dylan Gabel.

Chaparral loses lead, game to Golden Eagles Mountain Vista gets revenge on Wolverines for 2013 setback By Jim Benton

jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Chaparral coach Rob Johnson never felt Mountain Vista was better than his boys basketball team — that is until the Golden Eagles got their transition game on track in the third quarter of a Feb. 14 game at the Eagles Nest in Highlands Ranch. The Wolverines rebounded well and played good defense in the first half and led by 10 points at one point before taking a 30-25 lead into the intermission. Chaparral, however, turned the ball over too many times in the second half, which helped ignite Mountain Vista’s fast breaking offense as the Golden Eagles rallied for a 70-61 Continental League victory. “We knew if we kept turning it over they would have two-onones and three-on-ones,” said Johnson. “We knew if we could stop turning it over, we wouldn’t have to watch their transition game so much. But we couldn’t. We just made some bad decisions, lots of off-balance passes. “That is probably our Achilles heel. When the game gets real fast we have a hard time seeing

the court. We kind of get lost and make bad passes. Without that we were right in the game. I think we missed nine free throws in the second half. I thought we could have won the game. Not one time did I think they were that much better than us.” Mountain Vista was hyped for the game after what happened last season, though. On Feb. 15, 2013, Mountain Vista came in unbeaten and closing in on the league title but Chaparral dealt the Golden Eagles a 66-62 setback. Mountain Vista then lost to Highlands Ranch a week later, settling for a runner-up finish in the Continental League. It looked a lot like a rerun from last year in the first half against Chaparral on Valentine’s night as 6-foot-7 senior Hayden Dalton sparked a solid rebounding and defensive effort for 16 minutes for the Wolverines. Mountain Vista coach Bob Wood, whose third-ranked team improved to 20-1 on the season, recalled the 2013 setback to Chaparral. “Last year we had 19 wins going into the Chap game,” said Wood. “We were 19-0. This year we played one more game but had 19 wins. So it felt a lot alike but the difference was we were playing at home. That’s pretty big. We haven’t lost at home in two years.” Jonathan Moore, a 6-2 senior, directed Mountain Vista’s come-

back in the third period, scoring the Golden Eagles first five points of the stanza as Mountain Vista overcame the five-point halftime deficit to seize a 49-46 edge heading into the final quarter. “Coach riled us up a halftime,” said Moore who scored all 13 of his points in the second half. “He said we can beat Chaparral. We just have to play Mountain Vista basketball. We went out in the third and set out minds to do that. We got it done.” Wood was pleased with the play of Moore and his team in the second half. “He played well in the second half, he responded,” the coach said. “Chaparral is a talented team. They are really big and go to the boards hard. I thought we were able to get enough rebounds and they send so many guys to the boards that we got our fast break going and got some transition layups and made free throws down the stretch to put the game away. “We played totally tight and tense in the first half. After the second (half) came around, we totally changed. We were way more aggressive and got a lot more running baskets and it was just basketball like we are used to playing. We did a great job with our zone defense and that was really the difference in the game.” Mountain Vista had only two Chaparral continues on Page 22

Ochitwa must have dreamt about state championships as well as cakes because she claimed both the 50 and 100 freestyle championships on Feb. 15 at the Veterans Memorial Aquatic Center in Thornton. After finishing second as a freshman and sophomore in the 50 and coming in second and third in the 100 the past two seasons, she was motivated to stand on top of the podium this year. Ochitwa captured the 50 with a time of 23.11 seconds, which was 0.15 of a second better than Legend junior Lauren Moden, who touched up for second. “I really wanted to win and I knew I could,” Ochitwa said. “After the past two years, it made it even better to win this year. I was confident but swimming against all these girls, you get nervous. But I was confident the whole time.” In the 100-yard freestyle, Ochitwa’s 49.92-second swim, again placed her ahead of Moden, who was second with a time of 50.45. “I put all the pressure on myself,” said Ochitwa. “I didn’t feel any pressure from anyone else. It’s

amazing. It makes it so much better to win twice after the last two years. I definitely want to be first again next year.” Ochitwa, who became the first individual state swimming champion in school history, also swam a leg on ThunderRidge’s 200-yard medley relay team that was fifth.

South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce announces Calendar of Events 4th Annual “B.I.G. Day” For a complete calendar of South Metro Denver Chamber Local nonprofits with projects to complete can apply Dozens of area non-profits with thousands of volunteers working together makes for a great day. And, that’s the goal for the 2014 edition of the B.I.G. (Be Involved Give) Day set for Saturday, April 26th from 8:30 to 12:00. The fourth installment of this annual event promises to be bigger and more productive than ever. “Last year’s event surpassed all our expectations,” says John Brackney, President and CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce. “Over 300 volunteers spent a Saturday morning at 22 non-profit agencies. Non-profits got to showcase all they do to volunteers from the business community and relationships were created. Best of all, everyone had a great time. We expect this year to be continue the tradition of getting bigger and better each year!” B.I.G. stands for “Be Involved, Give.” Because of the huge success of last year’s event, the goal is to have over one-thousand volunteers spend Saturday morning at even more non-profits. Laurian Horowitz, Owner/Instructor of Colorado Life Lessons is again coordinating the sign-up of local non-

profits interested in taking part in what’s become an annual event that thousands look forward to. “The B.I.G. Day is an amazing day where our community can come together to volunteer.” says Horowitz. “For a nonprofit, it is a great opportunity to showcase themselves, to a new audience perhaps, and gain long term volunteers, monetary and in kind donations, as well as join forces with service organizations to complete huge projects in a short period of time.” Last year’s B.I.G. Day volunteers did everything from planting vegetables at Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield, to painting and preparing for the summer season at Dinosaur Ridge, to trail clean up with the South Suburban Park Foundation, to putting together and delivering meals for TLC Meals on Wheels - the list goes on and on. Children are welcome for most activities making it a fantastic family event and one that will build a sense of community in young minds. Slots for nonprofit organizations to take part in this year’s event are beginning to fill up and Horowitz urges those interested to contact her either by phone at 303-257-9589 or e-mail

at Laurian@ColoradoLiveLessons. com. There are currently 21 nonprofit organizations signed on and nonprofits do not need to be Chamber Investors in order to get involved in this event. Sign up for individual and corporate team volunteers will begin on March 1st. Brackney adds, “Imagine all that we can accomplish with thousands of volunteers?! And all of the projects our community non-profits can get done through this great event!” For updated information about the 2014 B.I.G. Day, visit the South Metro Denver Chamber Meetup site at www.Meetup.com/bestchamber/ events/124096422 or contact Laurian Horowitz at 303-257-9589.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF FEb 17, 2014

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Some unsettling facts about a past situation could come to light. And while you’d love to deal with it immediately, it’s best to get more information to support your case. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) A straightforward approach to a baffling situation is best. Don’t allow yourself to be drawn into an already messy mass of tangles and lies. Deal with it and move on. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Don’t be discouraged or deterred by a colleague’s negative opinion about your ideas. It could actually prove to be helpful when you get around to finalizing your plan.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Ignore that sudden attack of “modesty,” and step up to claim the credit you’ve so rightly earned. Remember: A lot of people are proud of you and want to share in your achievement. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) A financial “deal” that seems to be just right for you Leos and Leonas could be grounded more in gossamer than substance. Get an expert’s advice to help you check it out. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Don’t ignore that suddenly cool or even rude attitude from someone close to you. Asking for an explanation could reveal a misunderstanding you were completely unaware of. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Unless you have sound knowledge, and not just an opinion, it’s best not to step into a family dispute involving a legal matter, regardless of whom you support. Leave that to the lawyers. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) An awkward situation presents the usually socially savvy Scorpian with a problem. but a courteous and considerate approach soon helps clear the air and ease communication. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) A calmer, lesstense atmosphere prevails through much of the week, allowing you to restore your energy levels before tackling a new challenge coming up by week’s end. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Your approach to helping with a friend or family member’s problem could boomerang unless you take time to explain your method and how and why it (usually!) works. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Someone who gave you a lot of grief might ask for a chance for the two of you to make a fresh start. You need to weigh the sincerity of the request carefully before giving your answer. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Too much fantasizing about an upcoming decision could affect your judgment. better to make your choices based on what you know now rather than on what you might learn later. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of seeing the best in people and helping them live up to their potential. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
