Police recover more than 40 stolen guns Arrest leads to discovery of more than $20,000 worth of property Staff report The Parker Police Department has arrested two suspects in connection with the theft of more than 40 guns from a Parker residence. Casey Allen Riedel, 20, and Jacob Lee Whitlock, 18, both of Elizabeth, are facing charges that include second-degree bur-
glary, possession of a firearm by a previous offender, criminal mischief and conspiracy to commit theft. The district attorney may add more charges, according to a news release by the Parker Police Department. The investigation is ongoing. Both suspects were booked into the Douglas Whitlock County Jail. Riedel is free after posting a $50,000 personal recognizance bond while Whitlock
remains in custody on a $15,000 bond. A witness called police at 7:34 p.m. April 2 to report the suspects exiting the home, the news release stated. Police tracked the suspects’ car based on a description provided by the witness. While searching the suspects’ car, officers found more than 40 guns, Riedel as well as alcohol, jewelry, coins and other property. The value of the items was estimated to be
in excess of $20,000. The Parker Police department credits the witness’ help, the quick work of officers on duty and efficient detective work for the capture of the suspects and the recovery of all of the stolen items. “This case highlights the incredible partnership between the Parker community and its police department,” said Parker Police Chief David King. “Without this strong partnership, community vigilance and the trust the community has in reporting suspicious activity, this case would not have been resolved so rapidly.”

Striding past a century Parker woman going strong at age 102 By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Edith Tonnessen grew up in a time before cars and airplanes reached her hometown in Norway. For much of her life she had to walk almost everywhere she went. She may have been onto something. On April 2, Tonnessen turned 102, and she didn’t show any signs of slowing down. Her clear, sky blue eyes scanned the room sharply and her voice never wavered as she talked with family and friends. When someone announced lunch was ready, she walked gracefully to the buffet table, passing other diners who had a head start. “She’s still kicking butt and taking names,” said Tom Lane, a driver at the
Parker Senior Center who transports Tonnessen to and from the center every Friday. “I usually try to get out and help people to their door, but I get out and she’s already gone.” The staff and her friends at the center threw a party for Tonnessen on April 1. Four generations of her family were represented, as her daughter and son-inlaw, granddaughter, and great-grandson all came for the party. Born in Norway in 1914, Tonnessen came to the United States after her two sisters. She took a boat and landed in Brooklyn, New York, in 1940, and lived there with her sister. “Where I was, there was no work there, so we had to get out,” she said. In New York she got trained as a masseuse, a job she remembers fondly. She lived in Connecticut and Florida before moving to Colorado in 2010. She Birthday continues on Page 5

‘Reality TV’ candidacy a hard lesson in reality Mark Kroll, 22, is alarmed. Katie Pickrell, 17, is disappointed. Sianna Elmanouzi, 22, is quite baffled. The reason for their reactions? The 2016 Republican presidential camAnn Macari paign, defined by Healey uncultured, crass, hateful vocabulary and behavior typically more reflective of the worst in reality TV than a contest for the leader of our country. Much of the blame, these young people say, rests with Donald Trump, the billionaire real-estate mogul who has used his trademark offensive — and bigoted — bluntness to somehow rally enough supporters to move him to the front of the Republican pack. “I would like to think no one believes those things,” says Elmanouzi, a fiscal conservative and social justice liberal who registered as a Republican when she voted in her first presidential election four years ago. “But I’ve been overwhelmed by how much support he’s received. So it makes me second-guess what kind of society we live in.” Me, too. Regardless of where we fall on the political spectrum, Trump’s mean, simpleminded, often racist and sexist rhetoric shouldn’t be celebrated or replicated. And yet it has been. His campaign rallies draw overflow crowds. A recent NBC News/Survey Monkey weekly election tracking poll shows Trump has the support of 48 percent of registered Republicans and Republicanleaners. His abrasive style has lowered the bar of what’s acceptable to debate among candidates — from penises to wives — and degenerated the conversation into playground-like name-calling and glossovers.
“Respect,” Pickrell says, “is missing ...” Pickrell, who turns 18 in time to vote in November, has been canvassing for Democrat Bernie Sanders. She likes his focus on the environment and education, among other issues. Although energized by contributing to the political process, she’s also been shocked by what Trump’s influence has uncovered. “He’s kind of solidified (people) can be prejudiced or bigoted toward other people,” she says. “We’re taught you can’t say things based on skin color or where people come from, but he has done just that ... It’s almost like they were waiting for Donald Trump to come around and to say it’s OK to think things like that.” Mark Kroll, who graduates in May with a sociology degree from Coe College in Iowa, echoes Pickrell’s belief. People “have these views, have this rhetoric in their everyday vocabulary with their friends, family …” he says. “Now they have someone who’s talking like them — that’s kind of the scary thing about it.” Kim Gorgens, a clinical associate professor of psychology at University of Denver, also concurs. Research shows Trump “is a mouthpiece for a large percentage of the populace who hold these beliefs — much like pushing the Like button on a reply for Facebook or thumbs-up on Reddit for ugly sentiments,” Gorgens says. The rise in bullying rhetoric — of the acceptance of “cruelty and exclusion” — to such national prominence doesn’t necessarily surprise Gorgens. Psychologists and sociologists have been sounding the alarm for at least a decade, she says: A society increasingly separated from one another by the use of technology that promotes virtual rather than personal relationships is leading to the mainstreaming of inappropriate online behaviors, such as cyberbullying and Internet trolling. “As there’s been more and more access to, and exposure to, more opportuni-
ties to broadcast cruelty - cruelty has increased — and you’ve seen a gradual corrosion of social norms to include more pro-aggression, pro-violence sentiments,” Gorgens says. In simpler terms: “As the space between us gets reduced, instead of more opportunities for building interpersonal networks, we’ve used that space to broadcast really ugly sides of ourselves.” But, Gorgens says, the good news is research also shows we are most influenced by the people who are closest to us — family, friends, mentors — who, hopefully, don’t espouse the kind of philosophy that tears us apart. As it usually does in our country, it comes down to We the People. And, so far, we have generally allowed this state of affairs to continue without forceful outcry. We thought it wouldn’t get this far. We thought, initially, it was kind of funny. We thought Trump didn’t stand a chance. Even much of the media, I’m embarrassed to admit, has been swept away on the Trump hyperbole, bypassing legitimate coverage of other candidates and asking questions that perpetuate a conversation of little substance. Instead, we got taught a lesson in the reality of what happens when you don’t stand up to the bully from the very start. So let’s listen to the young people coming behind us, even though we are supposed to be older and wiser. This year’s excursion into the presidential campaign for Pickrell, a high school senior so passionate about politics she wants to be either a political journalist or a politician, has shown her not all is as it seems. She’s discovered some longtime friends have layers she didn’t know: They talk about supporting Trump, then make jokes about African-Americans, Hispanics, Muslims, gays. “It’s actually forced me to break down some of my relationships with people because they’re so hateful towards those who don’t support the kind of country Trump is after,” Pickrell says. “We should
be looking for a leader who will bring the nation together and build people up, not tear people down and reverse the progress that we’ve been making.” The possibility of a Trump presidency disillusions Kroll, who believes much of his support comes from a populace previously uninterested in politics and uneducated about issues. But, he wonders, how do you “try to teach your kid, `Don’t speak like this’ when it’s all over TV and (Trump) has a legitimate shot at becoming president? ... Reality TV has so much influence on young people. It’s eye-opening that there’s somebody who belongs on reality TV and is now in a more serious context.” They all agree, as Elmanouzi says, that young people don’t want an “aggressively demeaning” leader. Or one who is hateful. Or divisive. Or intolerant. They want a leader who respects others, who sees the broader good, who can work with all segments of society, who can meet in the middle. “I think young people are more willing to compromise, more willing to work together,” says Elmanouzi, who graduates from University of Colorado-Boulder in May with a degree in political science and business and a certificate in peace and conflict studies. “We’re kind of done with not being able to have conversations.” The political rhetoric of this campaign year has all but obliterated any suggestion of dialogue, much less a respectful approach to leadership. “It’s definitely a lesson learned,” Elmanouzi says. “The younger generation always looks to the mistakes of the generation before us.” Make no mistake: There’s a lesson here for all of us to learn.

Going orange and blue to raise some green Mayor Mike Waid dyes hair to promote St. Baldrick’s fundraiser for research By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Most mayors do their charity work in offices or reception halls. Last week, Parker Mayor Mike Waid did his in a hair salon. “I’m not a traditional mayor,” Waid said. Waid was taking the first step in promoting his annual Shave the Mayor promotion for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, which raises money for pediatric cancer research. When he left Haircolorxperts on Parker Road, his hair was bright orange and blue. St. Baldrick’s raises money by hosting fundraisers across the United States. Participants recruit sponsors to make donations, then get a thorough haircut.
Waid will be among participants shaving their heads for donations at Vehicle Vault in Parker on April 23 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. But before he shaves it off, Waid’s hair will turn heads and raise awareness for the event. Every year, Waid selects the contributor who made the largest donation to choose his hair color. This year an eleventh-hour donation of $510 secured the decision for a family that has won that honor two of the last three years. An offshoot of the competition will decide whether or not Waid will retain his beard. In addition to supporting the St. Baldrick’s event on April 23, visitors to the fundraiser’s website, www.shavethemayor. com, can make a donation and designate whether Waid should shave his beard or keep it. As of March 29, those donating to keep the beard were in the lead. Waid first became involved with the St. Baldrick’s Foundation four years ago, when a coworker’s young son was diag-
nosed with cancer, Waid decided to use his influence as a public official to make the event as successful as possible. In the four years Parker has held the fundraiser the town has raised more than $62,000, and the number of participants keeps growing. This year, Waid even convinced his 15-year-old son Matthew and Town Council member Joshua Rivero to lose their locks. Waid said he doesn’t mind looking silly when he considers the children the fundraiser will benefit. “If there’s one kid who’s going through chemo,” he said, “the thought that if some kids might go up to that child and tease them… that kid can turn around and say `You might think I look funny, but have you seen what the mayor looks like?’ ” Betty Daniels, owner of Haircolorxperts, talked with Waid about traffic lights as he scratched at his scalp with a barber’s comb. Daniels donates her company’s services each year to color Waid’s hair. She
credited Waid for involving in the fundraiser, but gave herself credit for adding the brightly-colored twist. “We had not heard of (St. Baldrick’s) before, only through Mike,” Daniels said. “The first year we only shaved… and then we suggested `Next year you need to get you hair colored,’ so that’s how this came about. It gives (the fundraiser) more exposure and helps raise more money.” The dyeing process lasted three hours. Even before it was over, Waid was generating buzz for the St. Baldrick’s event, posting updates on social media and recruiting potential donors from among the other salon patrons. As stylist Yadi Ordonez applied the blue dye to the sides of Waid’s head, Daniels reminded him to use old pillowcases and towels for the next few weeks to avoid stains on any “nice” linens. Waid nodded knowingly. “We don’t have any nice towels anymore,” Waid said.

Silverthorn said. “These numbers are concerning, and I will not blindly defend them. I want answers. I care about our staff and our students too much to leave this unaddressed.” DCSD’s turnover rate continues to be higher than some of its closest neighbors. Littleton (9.3 percent) and Cherry Creek (10.4 percent) turnover rose about 1 percentage point each from the previous year. In Jefferson County (16.3), it went up slightly less than 2 percentage points. Meanwhile, turnover among principals in the Douglas County School District rose to 23 percent from 20.7 percent the previous year. Principal turnover in Littleton for the 2015-16 school year was 7.1 percent, and in Cherry Creek it was 9.6 percent. Jefferson County’s figure is 16.3 percent, the same as the state average.

Assistant Superintendent Ted Knight said the district retains nearly all of its teachers who are rated “highly effective” and “effective” under the annual evaluation system. “Our goal is to keep the very best teachers in front of our students,” Knight said. DCSD officials have said in the past they disagree with how CDE calculates turnover because the state includes teachers or administrators who are promoted or go to other schools within the district as turnover. Board of education member David Ray said the district needs to stop debating whether or not the data is accurate and seek a solution that will keep teachers and principals from leaving. “Data is a curious thing,” Ray said. “You can embrace it, justify it or dismiss it. For too long, our district has been

dismissing it and trying to justify that the data is being calculated incorrectly. But what cannot be dismissed is that the CDE data is the same metric used, and calculated the same way, for all school districts. It is unacceptable, disheartening and disturbing that we are now above the state average for turnover and two times more than our neighboring districts.” Board member Doug Benevento said the state data is not reflective of the reality of turnover in the district. “We are retaining 95 percent of our highly effective teachers and 90 percent of our effective teachers,” he said. “What David Ray is advocating for is retaining our least effective teachers, a policy that the board has not supported in the past and does not support.” Ray strongly disagrees with Benevento’s assertion. “I find it unfortunate that Director Benevento states that he knows what I am advocating for when we’ve never spoken about it,” Ray said. “Given my 25-year career as a principal in the district, I take offense to anyone suggesting that my intent is to retain the least effective teachers.I have worked tirelessly to place only the best teachers in classrooms for our learners and my record for retaining these teachers far exceeds the district’s unfortunate turnover trends of the past five years. Forging ahead with practices that have resulted in high percentages of teachers and principals leaving our system is unacceptable.”

Rounding a corner Cottonwood resident prepares to return home after transplant By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Alan Lammle’s long-awaited to Colorado is almost upon him. After almost a year of anticipation and worry, Lammle successfully received a pancreas transplant on March 15. The surgery went well and Lammle is healing, albeit slowly. He is scheduled to have his staples removed on April 8, and he and his wife, Amy Simons, hope to return to their Cottonwood home shortly thereafter. Lammle left Colorado in April 2015 to be close to the University of Minnesota Medical Center, where he had decided to pursue a transplant. Doctors advised them to move close to the hospital so
Lammle wouldn’t miss his chance for a new pancreas due to complications like inclement weather or flight delays. After three months of waiting in Minneapolis, Lammle and Simons decided to explore other venues for the surgery. “I felt severely upset to be left in a `holding pattern’ for almost three months,” Lammle said in an email. “I felt hopeless and depressed and wanted to go home. I decided to go online to find other hospitals and found the University of Wisconsin.” Lammle and Simons rented a car and drove 270 miles to Madison, Wisconsin, and took up residence at the Restoring Hope Transplant House, a facility designed to provide affordable, comfortable living conditions for people in Lammle and Simons’ situation.

“Our whole mission is to serve transplant families like we were served, to pay it forward,” said Cindy Herbst, executive director and co-founder of Restoring Hope. Herbst’s family went through a similar experience while a family member waited for a bone marrow transplant. Usually families at the Restoring Hope house have already been approved for a transplant and have a specified amount of time they will stay. Lammle was still waiting for a pancreas to even be found. After speaking with Simons, Herbst made an exception to their admittance guidelines. “I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to be in Minnesota for so long,” Herbst said. “Not just the expense of it all, but the emotional toll of all that waiting.” The financial toll hasn’t been small either. Simons estimates she and Lammle have spent at least $30,000 since they relo-

cated, not counting medical expenses. “We have spent more money than we ever thought we would have spent,” Simons said. The family has held several fundraisers to help cover Lammle’s expenses and they are planning more. Even though his surgery is behind him, Lammle still faces more procedures and expenses. He will be on an immunosuppressant diet for the rest of his life and will need airfare to return to Wisconsin four times a year for follow-up appointments. In addition to barbecues and silent auctions, the family has a fundraising website, https://helphopelive.org/campaign/8797, where donations of auctionable items like event tickets and sports memorabilia are sold. The profits go to the family. “Our community in Parker has been exceptional,” Simons said, referring to those who helped with finances as well as her “extended family” taking care of her home and dogs. Lammle’s staples will come out on April 8. He and Simons hope to return soon after. “I miss my puppies and my kids,” he said.

Turkey vultures return Castlewood Canyon State Park will host Welcome Back Turkey Vulture Day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on April 16. The park is the largest nesting area in Colorado. Anyone with a valid state parks pass is welcome to attend. The birds are notable because of their dihedral wing pattern. They are deft fliers but appear to be out of control in flight. Turkey vulture-themed activities are planned as well as a hot dog and hamburger lunch. The park’s address is 2989 S. Highway 83, Franktown.

Joy more attractive than misery Maybe you have been part of a group discussion before where the initial conversation and topics seem benign and harmless enough. The tone and flow of the early discussion leads you to believe that you can probably enjoy spending time with the group, possibly offer some insights, and maybe even learn something along the way. And then it happens, a light-hearted and seamlessly simple discussion turns sideways, and before you know it the differences of opinion stands out like a ketchup stain on a white glove. At the risk of not being liked or accepted, certain individuals will join the dark forces of discontent and misery, and either remain silent in their conforming to the negative but popular rhetoric, or will jump right on the bandwagon of gloom. Heck, this could even be a conversation between two people, never mind a group of people. Has it ever happened to you, have you ever been the instigator of such a discussion? Or have you ever just decided it’s easier and less confrontational to quietly listen, even if the torrent of sadness is nothing you agree with? Don’t worry if your answer is yes, you are actually among the majority, as most of us would rather not engage in a conflict or battle. But what happens is this, we think about it, we go home or go to work and we share or propagate the misery as we retell the story and event that we just heard. And now, we are part of the misery trail, whether we wanted to be or not. But sooner or later, friends, family and coworkers will begin to avoid us. The old saying “Misery loves company” may be true, but the truth is that it is a temporary kinship or friendship. Misery is not sustainable. If it becomes sustainable
it will contribute to stress and other health issues. The opposite is joy. And joy attracts companions, strangers, neighbors, friends and family. Joy can even attract a crowd, or it can be enjoyed individually or amongst Michael Norton a close intimate group of people, maybe even WINNING just one or two people. You see, misery can be WORDS viewed as infectious, kind of a negative connotation. Where joy is often associated with be contagious, like when someone you are with begins to laugh so hard and joyful, you can hardly contain yourself from laughing along with them. And usually we have no idea what they are laughing about, but we join in the fun because it seems and feels like the right thing to do. Misery erodes relationships and contributes to the attrition of the people we had hoped to keep in our lives. And there is no doubt that joy attracts companions, companionship, love and trust, and fuels the positive energy of hope and encouragement that naturally draws others to us. And the best news of all is that we get to choose which path we want to pursue in our lives, the misery loves company path, or the joy that attracts companions path. Too black and white for you? Maybe your personal style leads you to be more gray in this area, staying far enough away from the
negative conversations and misery so that you don’t get painted with that same brush, yet close enough to hear what they are wallowing in. And maybe even maintaining your safe distance from the jubilance and perhaps overly optimistic and joyful folks so that you don’t get caught up in the hype of happiness bubble. I mean it’s probably safer in the middle, right? For me, I choose the benefits of joy attracting companions. The positive energy and conversations around possibilities and what can be achieved far outweighs the gloom and doom of the misery loves company group where limiting beliefs paralyze the potential for moving forward or ahead in life. The next time you are out and about, meeting in a bar or restaurant, gathering at a dinner or party, try and pay attention to the conversations, tonality, and body language of those around you, whether in your group or not. I just bet you will be able to quickly pick up on the joyful groups or just as quickly identify the reasons you want to distance yourself from the misery-driven conversations. How about you? Did you find this column to be a source of misery for you that will fuel a negative discussion, or did the column further strengthen your resolve as a joyful optimist? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can avoid the misery and attract the joy, it really will be a better than good week.

Tell me if you have heard this one. A snake goes into a bar. The bartender says, “I can’t serve you.” The snake says, “Why not?” “Because you Craig Marshall Smith can’t hold your liquor.” QUIET My father DESPERATION never told a single joke in my lifetime, at least not when I was around him. Maybe he did when he was on one of his business trips, but I doubt it. And he may have told a joke or two when he was growing up, or when he was stationed in Scotland during the war. But again, I doubt it. It also means that I never heard him tell a dirty joke. I don’t tell dirty jokes, and I don’t listen to dirty jokes. I am never going to a comedy club. There aren’t many comedians I appreciate anymore. It doesn’t mean that I am Mr. Rogers. A skeleton goes into a bar. The bartender says, “What can I get you?” The skeleton says, “A beer and a mop.” Looking back, and realizing that my father didn’t tell jokes, but that he was very witty, makes me think we had that in common too. The truth is, I am witty. And I give the credit to my father.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Teacher turnover story lacked balance I’m not sure what efforts you have made to find alternative viewpoints to the article about teacher turnover. You talked to plenty of parents and teachers who all have the same viewpoint that the school board is basically causing the teachers to leave. Please allow me to offer an alternative viewpoint as a parent of children in the DCSD. It hardly seems like a major story that the turnover rate in Douglas County is near that of the state average. The story should be that the turnover rate is so low given the change in culture that the school board has brought to this district. Whenever someone implements processes and ideas that are innovative and against the status quo, there are bound to be a group of people who are not going to like it. I very much applaud the school board for prioritizing the desires of parents and students. The support of charter schools and the creation of the voucher program shows that the board cares very much about
giving parents choices and alternatives that they would not have under the status quo. A pay-for-performance system shows that they care about keeping the best teachers in the district. I don’t understand the pushback against pay for performance. Shouldn’t we all want the best teachers to be rewarded? I can’t speak to the validity of the evaluation system, but no system for professional evaluation is perfect. One final thing: Can we get the facts straight about the voucher program? Setting aside the “concerns” about money potentially going to scary religious schools, the assertion that it is taking money away from the public schools simply isn’t true when you break it down on a per-student basis. If I recall correctly, the individual vouchers are only 75 percent of what the per-student funding is to the school district. The district keeps 25 percent of that money, which could be used to reduce overall class sizes, allow Letters continues on Page 11

Senior fairs: a wealth of information under one roof Change is inevitable, and it seems to be harder to adjust to it the more we age. The changes seem to be bigger the older we get; seniors have to adjust to retirement, loss of family members and friends, health issues, financial constraints, extended family situations, and planning for the future. On top of that, many seniors make cross-country moves in order to be closer to family. The best way to deal with change is to become informed so you can make the right personal choices, whether it is where to live, what to do to stay busy, or estate planning. Due to the growing and active senior population in Douglas County, more businesses, organizations and programs are available for seniors, whether they are 60 or 90 years old. Services are being tailored specifically for the senior population and may involve exercise and staying healthy, transportation options, places to go to participate in activities, or the building of new housing develop-
ments. The issue for both seniors and their family members is to find the information they need. One way to do that is to get out to some of the senior fairs and events where senior advocates come together Deb Santy in one place and LIVING attendees can meet AND AGING with them to collect information for WELL all the changes in their lives. Family members may obtain materials on home care agencies to help their parents stay independent in the months and years to come. Seniors still living in their homes might attend to become informed on housing options. Families may visit
booths to receive information on difficult topics such as funeral planning or hospice services because they know it’s a good idea to be prepared. These resource fairs can be invaluable ways to navigate the maze of services and programs available all in one stop. The next one to catch is the April 21 Senior Life Expo being held from 3-7 p.m. at the Douglas County Events Center, 500 Fairgrounds Road (corner of Plum Creek Parkway and Perry Street) in Castle Rock. While located in Castle Rock, it is a countywide event with more than 60 partners representing all facets of senior life joining together. Besides being able to talk to representatives at individual booths, there will also be seminars with topics of interest to seniors by leading experts in their fields. This free event is organized by the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center, and more information is available at www.castlerockseniorcenter.org or 303-688-9498. “It is important that an event of this
caliber is taking place in Douglas County, and we are glad to be a part of it,” said Jennifer Eby, community and resource services manager for the Douglas County Department of Community Development. “Resources for seniors are growing with the demand by organizations, government programs and businesses throughout Douglas County, and it’s valuable for seniors and their families to become informed even before services are needed.” If you can’t make the Expo, The Senior Connection, an event being run by Trade Shows by West Wind, is just a week later on April 26 from 9 .m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Wildlife Experience Center in Parker. Other popular Denver-area senior resource fairs include Salute to Seniors in May and The Amazing Aging Expo in August. Deb Santy is the assistant director at the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center. She can be reached at 303-688-9498 or crsc@crgov.com.
Regenerative medicine helps fight diseases
U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman
GUEST COLUMN
The development of regenerative medical treatments is one of the most exciting aspects of modern medicine. In fact, a recent report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office states, “virtually any disease that results from malfunctioning, damaged or failing tissues may be potentially cured through regenerative medicine treatments.” These treatments, developed from adult stem cells, show potential to fully restore or establish normal function in damaged human cells, tissues, or organs. Currently, the Food and Drug Administration oversees the development of regenerative applications based on a patchwork of regulations. The FDA simply does not have an approval process in place to best

He found sideways humor in things, in the moment. Obviously nothing was scripted or prepared like a Carson monologue. It was off-the-cuff. At one time, men wore paper cuffs and notes might be written on them, to remember later. Therefore “off-the cuff” — meaning unprepared — really means that something was prepared. I think the best kind of humor is offthe-cuff and in the moment. Few do it well. Robin Williams was phenomenal to the point that it might have been a burden sometimes to be funny. I make stuff up all the time, and I don’t have an audience. Have you ever seen a laughing dachshund? Holding his sides? Me either. But it doesn’t keep me from saying things to him, in hopes that some day I might hear some laughter coming out of that russet muzzle. One day I said, “Smitty, if you can tell me how many chickens I have in this gunny sack, I will give both of them to you.”

for more specialty teachers, and even improve some infrastructure. Aren’t these good things? The opponents of the voucher program don’t like it simply because it takes money away from the teachers’ union. Then again, that’s the source of the opposition to everything the school board is doing, isn’t it? T.J. Paulsen Highlands Ranch Article brings to light teachers’ flight I want to congratulate the newspaper, and Mike DiFerdinando, on the excellent article last week on why teachers are leaving.
consider these new, innovative therapies. As a result, other countries, particularly Japan and the United Kingdom, are quickly outpacing the United States in the development of regenerative treatments. I recently introduced the REGROW Act, which addresses the lack of FDA standards in the regenerative treatment field by creating standards that will lead to regulatory predictability regarding manufacturing processes and controls, and ensures the safety of these treatments. The legislation also protects approval pathways under sections 351 and 361 of the Public Health Service Act, while creating a new category for regenerative treatment products. I think every American has lost a loved
No response. I told him that I bought a thermos because it keeps hot things hot and cold things cold. I pretended that he said, “What do you have in it?” “Soup and ice cream.” Nothing. A Methodist, a Lutheran and a Catholic go into a bar. The bartender says, “What is this? Some kind of a joke?” There are people who tell jokes, are funny, and are funny-looking too. Number one on that list is Rodney Dangerfield. Dangerfield began writing one-liners for comedians when he was 15. Humor starts early, like everything else. Its reward is laughter. Once you get a little laughter, you want more. I could sense that I was amusing my friends. Nothing has changed. I would rather amuse my readers than harumph on something. But I am good at that too. True, I’m a curmudgeon. But that does not mean that I am malevolent. The best curmudgeons come with a side order of humor. August Strindberg said, “I loathe people who keep dogs. They are cowards I am not a teacher. In fact, I don’t even have kids in school anymore. But I believe strongly in building the future of our community, and country, through strong educational values and a strong system. I have noted with alarm the teacher turnover rate but I was unaware it had soared in the last five years. As much as the superintendent and the longest-serving board members would like to ignore this, or to attribute it to coincidence, as leaders, they must take note of this alarming statistic. They would be delinquent in their responsibilities if they did not take this extremely seriously and develop solutions. Hopefully, and thanks to this article, the days of worrying more about vouchers and saving money, rather than the quality of education in Douglas County, are over for this group of people.

That’s why I have introduced this bill and have made it one of my priorities in Congress to support the kind of medical research that seeks cures to prevent these heartbreaking losses.

SOME TIPS FOR WARMING UP, COOLING DOWN, STRETCHING Warm up: • Engage in five to 10 minutes of submaximal exercise, focusing on increasing intermuscular temperature and activating the cardiovascular system. Choose dynamic movements that mimic exercises that will be completed during the workout or activity. Cool down: A light, five- to 10-minute walk or jog will help gradually slow down heart rate and increase blood flow back to the heart. Although the acute effects of stretching are debatable, a stretching routine should be included in your cool down as it can improve range of motion and physical function and help decrease blood pooling.
Grant Medina, exercise physiologist and health fitness specialist for MillerCoors’ Wellness Program, says stretching is just one part of a proper cool down following exercise. “A proper cool down is just as important as warming up,” he said. “Post exercise your heart is still beating faster than normal and your blood vessels are dilated, meaning a sudden stop in exercise will cause blood pooling in your extremities, and you can become dizzy or even faint. A light jog or walk for five to 10 minutes will aid in gradually slowing down your heart rate and increase the blood flow back to your heart.” Photo by Stefan Brodsky
T
he secret’s out. Earlier this month, U.S. News called Denver the best place to live in all of America. Colorado Springs came in fifth. While myriad attributes factored into the rankings — including job market, cost of living, schools and transportation— quality of life carried the most weight, accounting for 30 percent of a city’s scoring. And in Colorado, all along the Front Range, quality of life is code for vast recreational opportunities and ample natural resources. After all, where else can a person go skiing, snowboarding, ice skating, sledding, tobogganing, snow tubing or snowshoeing in the morning, only to travel back “down the hill” and find opportunity for hiking, biking, running, golfing, kayaking, a mountain of team sports and a host of other outdoor activities? With so much to choose from and lots of sunny skies to be had, it’s easy to get carried away. Which is why it’s important not to let ambition turn into affliction. Downhill danger Ask Dr. Mark Wisthoff about the most serious winter sports injury he’s ever seen and his warm smile frowns at the corners and his tenor takes a somber tone. “This dad was skiing with his 9-yearold kid. They were from the east coast, and they were not wearing helmets,” said Wisthoff, who recently joined St. Anthony North Campus in Westminster, working in primary care and sports medicine. “Well, the kiddo lost control and hit a tree.” The child was transported by helicopter to a nearby trauma center, but “ended up passing a few hours later,” Wisthoff said. “It was one of those horrific accidents you never forget. That’s why it’s so important, whatever you’re doing, to just wear your helmet. It only takes a few seconds.” That advice is a no-brainer, said longtime ski enthusiast Mike Wodzianski, of Golden, who likes to “get after it. “These days adrenaline is the only buzz for me, so I like to ski fast and take harder lines and kind of push myself,” said Wodzianski, who has skied injuryfree for four decades. “But when you push yourself you’re opening yourself up to the potential for more injuries … So, for me an ounce of prevention is definitely worth a pound of cure.” Prevention means stretching, proper training and nutrition, and gearing up for whatever he might find, below or above the tree line. “I’m wearing a helmet but also the

right gear, the right clothes,” Wodzianski said. “It’s better to have it and not need it.” Similarly, insufficient food and water can lead to dehydration and fatigue, he added. Improper nutrition “can predispose you to injury because you’re dehydrated and tired and hungry — everything kind of adds up and you get injured from that,” he said. Start at the bottom So before even looking to the top of the mountain, Wodzianski and Wisthoff
recommend first starting slowly at the bottom. “A lot of people have to drive to get to the slopes and are just sitting in the car, and then when they get there they jump out and just go for it,” Wisthoff said. “I know you want to get on the slopes, but you really need to be careful.” Wodzianski stretches his legs, shoulders and back before strapping on his skis. Wisthoff recommended adding active warm-ups — slow cardiovascular Fitness continues on Page 13
ONE TOKE OVER THE LINE While doctors and outdoor enthusiasts alike agree there’s a certain advantage to “staying loose” in terms of avoiding injury, being too loose can be equally dangerous. “I know this is going to sound crazy in Colorado, but drugs and alcohol when you’re skiing is not a good idea,” said outdoors enthusiast and longtime skier Mike Wodzianski, of Golden. Dr. Mark Wisthoff, who recently joined St. Anthony North Campus in Westminster, working in primary care and sports medicine, has witnessed firsthand the negative impacts. “With collision-type injuries, you’re involving someone else,” Wisthoff said. “The most no-
table (I saw) was this lady, she was 82, skied in Colorado since she was 16 and had never, ever been injured. And a snowboarder came plowing down, out of control, intoxicated, and slammed into her. She fractured her hip.” The chance of a collision is compounded by crowded slopes, Wisthoff added. “At that intensity, where you’re coming down a mountain at a pretty good clip, where you could injure somebody else, you really want your senses to be top-notch,” he said. “If you’re blunting your senses with alcohol or marijuana or any other substance, your risk of injury goes up exponentially, as well as the risk of injuring others.”
Stretching With stretching, stick with dynamic, static or proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (active and pasive) techniques. Avoid bouncing. A routine of at least 10 minutes that focuses on major muscle/tendon groups is recommended post-exercise for most adults. Only stretch to tension or mild discomfort. Stretching should not be painful. Stretches could include: • Runners’ lunge with side stretch. Begin in a low lunge position with your right (forward) knee bent above your right foot. Extend your left leg directly behind you. Extend your left arm directly above you and lean to your right side, and drop your left knee for deeper stretch. Repeat on the other side. • Seated hamstring stretch. While seated, extend your legs straight. Bend the unstretched leg in at the knee to protect your lower back. Then, lean forward, bending at the hips towards the foot of the straight leg until you feel tension. Repeat. • Pigeon pose. Cross one leg in front of you with a bent knee while extending the other directly behind you. Place the outside edge of the forward leg on the floor, then lean forward, bending at your hips while keeping your hips squared forward. Repeat. • Downward-facing dog. Begin on your hands and knees with your hands shoulder-width apart. Raise your buttocks into the air straightening your legs until you feel tension, then lower your head between your arms, straightening your spine. Push your heels into the ground until you feel tension. • Twisted arm stretch. Bring your arms out in front of your body, bend your elbows to 90 degrees, and cross your arms one over the other. Twist your hands such that your palms are facing each other and try to touch your fingers together, then push your hands towards the ceiling to get a deeper stretch. • Chest-opener stretch. In a standing or seated position, straighten your back and pull your shoulders down and back. Interlock your hands behind your back and, with straight arms, bring your hands towards your head until you feel tension.

Schumann show set for Englewood stage Englewood Arts Presents, which now handles booking for Hampden Hall, will present one of its popular Saturday afternoon concerts at 2 p.m. April 16 in Hampden Hall in the Englewood Civic Center, 1000 Englewood Parkway. It will feature Colorado Symphony’s principal cellist, Silver Ainomae, performing Schumann’s “Cello Concerto,” a work written late in the composer’s short life, but “enormous in scope,” according to Englewood Arts’ Eric Bertoluzzi. The program will also include Sibelius’s “Impromptu in B Minor” and Tchaikovsky’s “Souvenir de Florence.” Featured musicians include Silver Ainomae, Yi Zhao, Ben Odhner, Anne Ainomae, Danielle Guideri and Brian McLean. Tickets: $20, adults; $15, seniors, Free under 18. Englewoodarts.org or at the door one hour prior to concert time. Little Free Libraries The Rotary Club of Centennial will place — and maintain — two Little Free Libraries in pedestrian-heavy South Suburban parks: at deKoevend Park, near the tennis courts, and at Willow Creek Park, adjacent to the playground. An April 9 dedication, with entertainment, a special Dr. Seuss reading and refreshments, will be held at noon at Willow Creek Park and 2 p.m. at deKoevend Park. Children’s literacy is one of Rotary’s focuses in its volunteer work in the community and it will provide additional books and library maintenance as needed. Camera club meets “World Travels With 1 Camera and 1 Lens” is photographer Don Mammoser’s topic for his April 12 talk to the Englewood Camera Club. He made a 21-month nonstop journey to 23 countries — a life-changing experience. He visited Florence, the Pyramids and the Taj Mahal, but also tiny islands of Indonesia and remote Siberia. He is a nature, travel and wildlife photographer and nonfiction writer, who will share stories and images. The club meets at 7 p.m. at the Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit, 6400 S. University, Centennial. (Doors open at 6:15 p.m.) Guests are welcome.

exercises — to fully prepare. Yet, all the preparation in the world won’t do any good if technique is poor or training is insufficient. And when it comes to training, Wodzianski said it’s imperative to seek certified instructors, rather than a relative, spouse or partner. “For instance, a husband teaching a wife, not only is that a good way to get into a really big argument, but they’re probably going to learn bad habits,” he said. “Professional instruction is huge, and they should be up to speed with their latest certifications, so you’re learning from somebody who has the latest and greatest training.” Dr. Vance Schuring, who along with his wife co-owns Denver Sports Medicine in Lakewood, agrees. “There’s huge importance in making sure athletes have the proper technique or foundation before they go out and exercise, so they don’t injure themselves,” he said. “Generally (injuries are caused by) either faulty training, shoes or musculoskeletal imbalances, not training before they go out and do sports specific activities, as well as not being properly evaluated by a training professional. Schuring also recommends an evaluation in addition to proper training. “We put people through functional movement screens, as well as proper movement analysis, to look for these weaknesses and prescribe a unique treatment plan for these individuals to get them better,” Schuring said. Fine line between cavalier, confident After that, it’s a matter of knowing when to be confident rather than cautious, Wisthoff said. “I definitely think there’s got to be a balance because I have a lot of people who get injured and then they’re too timid and wind up injuring themselves more,” he said. “But I see a lot, especially younger athletes … they just go for it and aren’t calculating. It’s best to start with something lower first and make sure you can do

it before you just start going.” Trail runner Ellen Lambert Bagnato, of Broomfield, said it was that cavalier approach that contributed to her broken ankle a year ago. “I think that taking things for granted, your ability to avoid injury, to avoid hazards, is easy for some of us to do, but can ultimately lead to injury,” Bagnato said. Once the commitment is made, however, Wodzianski said an athlete has to trust his or her abilities. “You never know what you’re going to see when skiing, and so you have to be comfortable, relaxed with a lot of different conditions,” he said. “I think that keeps the body at ease and you’re a little looser.” Spring forward Down the hill in Denver and along the Front Range, spring sports present their own pitfalls and potential for injury. One of the most common roots of injury, according to Wisthoff, is essentially eagerness and foolish pride. In other words, spring fever causes many outdoor enthusiasts to forget how they spent the previous three to five months. “For instance, we see (a lot of injuries) when people start running programs,” he said. “They go out and jog six or seven miles and when they come back they have all these injuries because they didn’t start slowly enough.” Trail runner Greg Wobbema, of Lakewood, sees it happen all too often. “I have already (heard) three stories about friends who upped their weekly routines too heavily and ended up with injuries,” he said. “The best advice I ever got was to start small. You make a mistake and hurt something this early in the season, it could have a drastic effect on your entire season.” For some, the key to staying injury free is to simply keep moving. And that’s where the year-long activities afforded to Colorado residents comes into play. “The best way to not get injured in spring is to keep active in winter, whether that is running, hiking, snowshoeing, skiing or the gym,” said Denver all-around athlete, Amy Lease. “To avoid injury, stay active and think about the terrain that exists for your activity.”

Wonderbound’s ‘Dust’ is anything but dry Dance, theater, music join forces for new production

“Integrating our artistic companies and redefining the limits of our collective art forms is an essential part of what makes the `Dust’ collaboration so exciting,” said Dee Covington of Curious Theatre Company, who has written a script for “Dust,” a combination dance, theater and music production that will appear at three venues in April: Performing Arts Complex at Pinnacle Charter School, Federal Heights; PACE Center, Parker; and Newman Center for the Performing Arts, Denver. The project was initiated by choreographer Garrett Ammon, artistic director of Wonderbound Contemporary Ballet Company, who makes a practice of collaborating with other artists and has worked with these pros in the past. The production features all new music from Jesse Manley and His Band. “Dancers will act, actors will dance,” said Covington. She continued: “Dawn (Fay, Ammons’ wife/partner), Garrett, Chip (Walton, Curious director) and I sat down together well over a year ago to discuss the possibilities of a collaboration.” Curious had called on Ammons several years ago to help with the staging of “Eurydice,” a poetic retelling of Greek mythology ... “… We landed on taking a deeper look at Colorado’s history with the land during the Dust Bowl of the 1930s. Naturally, Garrett chose Jesse (Manley) to complement our work because Jesse’s creative voice and sound as an artist is so well attuned to this era: both hauntingly reminiscent of this era and also incredibly progressive — the perfect collaborator and a true complement to the project. “In this very early conversation, I wrote the phrase `snake oil salesman’ in the margin of my notes … the phrase stuck with me as I began to dig into the

possibilities of a Dust Bowl narrative,” Covington continued. “As I learned more about the people living through this apocalyptic time, I was struck by their vulnerability, their loss and their need to keep some kind of faith alive in order to continue to survive.” Two points of view surfaced: one Biblical and the other leaning toward a “rainmaker” to bring salvation and rain. Each character has to define “What will I do?” Covington and Garrett are co-directing and he is choreographing the work. Manley, in his fourth collaboration with Ammons, said he grew up in Oklahoma, “exploring the experiences of those who lived through the Dust Bowl and intrigued by the music that is native Dust continues on Page 15

LOCAL
ALL-SOUTH METRO GIRLS AND BOYS BASKETBALL TEAMS
The Best and Brightest I
t was a high school basketball season to remember in the south metro Denver area. For starters, consider that in 2015-16, four girls teams from the area played in state championship games. ThunderRidge beat Highlands Ranch for the Class 5A state title in March, and those two schools have combined to win 11 championships since 2000. Highlands
Ranch won seven and ThunderRidge four. Valor Christian won its second straight Class 4A girls crown, while Lutheran captured the 3A title for the second time in three years. On the boys side, Valor Christian lost in the Class 4A state championship game, and Lutheran’s boys lost in the 3A semifinals but captured third place in the tournament.
The girls and boys brackets each had 11 teams from the south metro area qualify for the state tournaments across 3A, 4A and 5A. Local boys teams were 17-13 in the tourney, while the girls were even better: 24-10. In short, players from the area displayed tall talent in 2015-16. And, as we do following each basketball season, we are recognizing the best and bright-
est on the Colorado Community Media All-South Metro Girls and Boys Basketball Teams. The 10 players on each team were selected by the CCM sports staff, with input from area coaches. Eligible players attended schools in Douglas County and the Littleton Public Schools district, along with Englewood and Cherry Creek high schools.

Wolverines win lacrosse league opener in battle of unbeaten teams By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Chaparral, unbeaten in its nonleague schedule, faced another unbeaten team in Highlands Ranch during the Douglas County boys lacrosse league opener March 23 at Sports Authority Field. The Wolverines improved to 5-0 with a dominating second half performance to notch a 10-5 victory over the Falcons. “We moved the ball quick,” said senior Zach Adams. “We put the ball in the net and finished strong. The talk on defense was just amazing. We put it all together and pulled out the win. We’re 5-0 so we’re looking pretty good. I think we’re going to go deep in the playoffs.” Key moments The game was tied at 4 when Chaparral’s Nichols Neff scored with 5.5 seconds left before halftime. Then the Wolverines got goals from senior Jake Graefe, Adams and junior Trevor Orndoff in a 2:25 span early in the third period to expand their lead to four goals. “That goal at the end of the first half was great,” said Chap coach Kevin Graefe. “Lacrosse is a huge game with momentum. It’s a great game because you can get a lot of goals quick, so you get that momentum and keep building on it.” Key players/statistics Adams and Orndoff each had three goals, and Orndoff also had an assist. Chaparral picked up 46 ground balls. Sophomore Brett Boos was credited with 15 ground balls wins, and he also won 13 of 18 faceoffs. Junior Nick Gallegos scored twice for the Falcons, who
came into the game averaging 42 ground balls a game, but didn’t come close to that figure against Chap. They said it “Chaparral came out with a good defensive game plan, and they destroyed us on ground balls, and that was the biggest difference in the game,” said Highlands

Ranch coach Matt Bocklet. “We took a team to Arizona during spring break, and it really brought the team together,” said coach Graefe. “So look for great things from us this season. We had a very young team last year. This year all the juniors from last year are now seniors. We have a big senior group and just having that senior leadership is very
important. We’re doing pretty well out of the gate, but it’s really one game at a time.” Going forward Chaparral has a league encounter scheduled April 8 at Palmer. Highlands Ranch (3-1) faces a league game April 8 against Lewis-Palmer.

Snow much for that baseball tournament Mountain Vista’s baseball team didn’t get out of town soon enough. Instead of playing games in the Rawlings Classic in Emerson, Georgia, the Golden Eagles spent spring break watching it snow in the Jim Benton Denver area and tryto remain sharp OVERTIME ing with batting-practice sessions. The Golden Eagles were scheduled to leave March 23 for the March 24-26 tournament but the team couldn’t even get to Denver International Airport because of the heavy, wet snow that closed Pena Boulevard. All flights were canceled and the first re-booked flight Mountain Vista could get was March 26 — which was too late. The team did get its money back. Ralston Valley also was entered in the Georgia tournament and left the day before the storm. The Mustangs went 2-2
and had Tanner Hauptman, Reed Hutchin and Lane Kimbro make the Rawlings Select Classic all-tournament team. Missing the four games left Vista with only 15 scheduled games, four less than the minimum of 19 contests. The Golden Eagles have added two games with Cherokee Trail, which was also stuck in the snow and couldn’t get out of town, and one with Broomfield. Playing one less game will not damage Vista’s RPI standing — a computer ranking —which will be used to determine qualifying teams for the state tournament. According to a statement from the Colorado High School Activities Association, “Because the RPI system works off of averages, it won’t make a difference in the final formula if a game cannot be rescheduled. It would not penalize, nor benefit, any team involved in that scenario.”
followed by not allowing a hit in a fiveinning, 16-0 victory. “AJ did a good job and we scored four runs in the bottom of the sixth, so he didn’t have to pitch the seventh,” said coach Ralph Nance. “Then the kid that pitched the JV game which followed right behind the varsity game threw a no-hitter as well. We’ve never had two (no-hitters) in a row.” Stephens, who will pitch at Garden City Community College in Kansas next season, struck out 14 batters, walked three, threw 93 pitches and came up with big pitches as he often pitched from behind in the count during the game. He also helped his own cause by going 3-for-3 at the plate, scored twice, had two runs batted in and stole two bases. Thorne walked three batters and struck out 11 in his no-hit effort.
Two no-hitters: same school, same day Faith Christian senior lefthander AJ Stephens threw a six-inning no-hitter in a 10-0 win over Machebeuf April 2, but what makes the day more amazing is freshman junior varsity pitcher Michael Thorne
Following in his father’s footsteps Brent Gilbertson was a hurdler for Nevada-Las Vegas and Northern Colorado in the 1970s. He became a teacher and wanted to get his two children, son Max and daughter Zoe, involved in sports.
Gilbertson coached Max in little league football and Zoe played club soccer. Both have competed in track programs since they were young. Max is now a senior at Mountain Range and Zoe is a junior. They are two of the top hurdlers and sprinters in the state. Brent, now a retired English teacher, is the Mustangs’ hurdles and sprints coach. At the April 2 Mountain Range Invitational, Max won both hurdles events and Zoe was first in two girls hurdles events and the 100-meter dash. “Max and Zoe have made steady progress over the years and it is starting to pay off,” said Brent. “Max’s progress has been hampered over the last few seasons due to football injuries but he seems to be back to his competitive self and Zoe just keeps improving each week.” Max tied a (North) stadium record and set a new meet record with a 14:54 in the 110-meter hurdles. In the 300 hurdles, he tripped going over the fourth hurdle but had such a big lead that he got up and still won. He was fourth in the 100 but broke Benton continues on Page 21

Legend to host formal gala, fundraising Rio Carnival is theme of event set for Denver Tech Center
Kevin Boley, Legend High School’s athletic director, stands next to a stack of shoulder pads at the school on March 31. Boley says the gala fundraiser is a great opportunity for the community to come together and support the Legend athletics program. Photo by Tom Skelley
By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloraodcommunitymedia.com Legend High School is inviting members of the Parker community to come together for an evening of food, formal wear and fundraising. The school will host the third annual Legend Gala at the DoubleTree Hotel in the Denver Tech Center at 5:30 p.m. April 9. “It’s a really special night,” Legend Athletic Director Kevin Boley said. “It’s just really neat to see the community come together.” Boley said the school’s lacrosse team adding a third level and baseball field renovations are just two improvements the school has made as a result of funds raised in the past two galas. The money raised by the event supports several other school programs other than athletics, including the band, the art department, the Future Business Leaders of America, the Chinese Club and the Technology Student Association. Each group collects their own items for the auction and receives all of the proceeds from the sales. Funds are raised in silent and live auctions containing memorabilia from local professional teams and other donated items. The theme for the event is “Rio Carnival” and festivities include live music, cocktails, appetizers and dinner. Boley said that while fundraising is the main objective of the gala, the event also builds community between teachers, students, coaches and families. “It’s a really special night,” he said. “Obviously the overall purpose is to support Legend High School and Legend athletics and other activities… but to see the community come together, families
that may or may not know each other, coaches that may or may not hang out… it’s a really neat opportunity.” The fundraiser has grown each year. Staci Batterson, Assistant Principal at Legend, estimates attendance the first year was close to 200 people and about 300 people attended last year. She expects between 350 and 400 people at this year’s gala. The event raised just less than $50,000 last year alone. “It’s nice to have just one event where people know they’ll receive 100 percent of the profit,” Batterson said. Jill Beyer, a parent and substitute teacher at Legend, manages the online silent auction. She said the money raised isn’t the only positive outcome of the event. She said Legend’s philosophy has always been family, and the gala exemplifies that theme. “Having been a parent since the school opened, we’ve always said that Legend values family,” she said “Since I’ve been working on the gala, I’ve seen that we really, truly do operate as a family. Having one event where all the different clubs work together shows a lot.”
IF YOU GO WHAT: Third Annual Legend Gala WHEN: 5:30 p.m., April 9 WHERE: DoubleTree Hotel, 7801 East Orchard Road, Greenwood Village FOR MORE INFORMATION or to purchase tickets, go to: http:// gala.legendtitans.org/ To view items in the silent auction, visit: http://legendgala2016.auction-bid.org/micro2. php
CARRIER of the MONTH
CONGRATULATIONS The Walton Family WE APPRECIATE ALL YOUR HARD WORK & DEDICATION ENJOY YOUR $50 GIFT CARD COURTESY OF
Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF APRIL 4, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Regarding your upcoming challenges, the Aries Lamb should very quickly size things up and allow you to make the best possible use of whatever resources you have on hand. Good luck. TAURUS (April 30 to May 20) You rarely blame others for missteps that worked against you. But this time you need to lay out all the facts and insist that everyone acknowledge his or her share of the mistakes. Then start again. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might want to start making vacation plans. And don’t be surprised by unexpected family demands. Maintain control. Be open to suggestions, but don’t get bogged down by them. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Work with both your Moon Child and Crab aspects this week to keep both your creative and your practical sides balanced. Your intuition sharpens, giving you greater insight by the middle of the week. LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Big Cat finally should have all the information needed to move on with a project. If not, maybe you’ll want to give everything a new and more thorough check before trying to move on. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Too much emotional pain caused by someone you can’t win over as a friend? Then stop trying to do so. You have other things you need to work on this week. Go to it, and good luck.

TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) It’s a good time to reassess where and how your strengths can help you build, and where your weaknesses can hinder you. Remember to build on your strongest foundation. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) That personal matter that seemed so hard to deal with should be less confusing now. Don’t rush. Let things happen easily, without the risk of creating even more puzzlement. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Change continues to be a strong factor in many important areas. Keep on top of them, and you won’t have to worry about losing control. A personal situation takes on a new look.
Answers
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A business offer sounds intriguing. But if you don’t check it out thoroughly, you could have problems. Take a set of questions with you when you attend your next meeting. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Your self-confidence should be coming back. That’s good news. But it might be a bit over the top right now, so best to let it settle down before you start making expensive decisions. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your life, your decisions. Good enough. But be sure you have all the facts you need to put into the decision-maker mixing bowl and hope it will come out as it should. BORN THIS WEEK: You find much of your creativity with new people who give you much to think about. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.
