Movement at the mall Redevelopment to begin late summer at former mall site By Ashley Reimers

areimers@colorado communitymedia.com By late summer, residents will see some action happening in the area of the former Westminster Mall. Construction of the basic street grid network will begin at the 105acre site at U.S. 36 and Sheridan Boulevard as part of a plan that calls for a high-density, urban development with residential, commercial, retail and other uses. Along with seeing the start of construction, the city will also be negotiating a development agreement with San Diegobased OliverMcMillan, to be complete by late fall. In early May, the city of Westminster, the Westminster Economic Development Authority, WEDA, and OliverMcMillan entered into an exclusive agreement for the redevelopment of the former mall. The design firm was founded in 1978 and has developed more than 8 million square-feet. “We are thrilled to announce the alliance with OliverMcMillan. This firm is exactly what we need and want for this project,” said Westminster Mayor Herb Atchison. “They have extensive experience in mixeduse development, plus a great track history of sensitivity to each community’s uniqueness. With patience and our strategic actions, we have set the stage for ourselves to partner with someone just like this and it is now paying off.” The city was first introduced to OliverMcMillan back in 2008 after the city sent out a request for proposal to developers regarding the development of the former mall.

By late summer, Westminster residents will see construction happening at the site of the former Westminster Mall. At that time, the city will begin constructing the street grid. Photo by Ashley Reimers OliverMcMillan was one of the proposers. City manager Brent McFall said representatives from the firm came in for an interview, but after further review of the site and project, OliverMcMillan declined to move forward on the project due to variables involved in the project. “Although OliverMcMillan thought we had a great site, they decided there were too many unknowns on the project, like the fact that at that time, the city didn’t have control of the site and could possible face litigation with the owner,” McFall said. “Since then, the city has taken control of the site, took care of the demolition of the construction on the site and also resolved any potential lawsuits by acquiring the site. So now, the timing is right for them and for us.” McFall said the final touch on the deal

was the city beginning the process of designing the horizontal infrastructure on the project by planning the street grid. With the street grid in place as well as the base level entitlements in place, McFall said OliverMcMillan will be able to come in and get their permits, planning approval and get under construction for phase one by fall of 2015. “This is a great site and we see an excellent opportunity to create a place that will endure into the future,” said Morgan Dene Oliver, CEO of OliverMcMillan. “The city of Westminster has shown visionary leadership in the ideas that are under consideration for the adaptive reuse of this site.” McFall said throughout the process the city will have community outreach meetings, as well as public hearings at planning commission and city council meetings to give people input on the project. The city is also going to start drawing people back to the area with events at the former mall site, like a farmer’s market happening this summer, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. “We want to bring people back to the site and build some excitement about what is going to happen in the future,” McFall said.

Next year Westminster High School will have a new leader. Last month Kiffany Kiewiet was selected as the new principal of WHS, taking the place of Michael Lynch, who will move to the position of Director of Secondary Education for District 50. Kiewiet’s previous position was as assistant principal and athletic director. “I’m so excited to work with the kids and teachers and be able to have an impact on their lives,” she said. “Interacting with the kids in the hallways is really important to me. It’s all about the kids, and I have to make sure to never lose sight of that.” Kiewiet started her career in education teaching Kiewiet math in an at-risk program at a high school in Wisconsin. She then moved to a position as the dean of students. That was her first experience working outside of the classroom building community among the school and partnering with local law enforcement to deal with gang issues. About five-and-half years ago, Kiewiet moved to Colorado and started as a community liaison at Manual High School in Denver. She soon moved into the position of assistant principal, before coming to Westminster High School two years ago as the assistant principal and athletic director. Kiewiet says she’s always made sure to have a lot of experiences within the education world, also working in the special education program and overseeing safety and security at WHS. “In my past careers I’ve always made sure I was learning new things,” Kiewiet said. “I’m a lifelong learner. I’m constantly asking questions because I want to make sure I have all the info I need before I make a decision.” One thing Kiewiet will be focusing on this fall is improving the overall attendance at the high school. She said attendance is slowly getting better, but she wants to make sure the school is providing the necessary services students need to make it to school, whether that be mental health services or drug and alcohol services. She also wants to ensure every classroom is engaging. “I want students to be in class and want to come back the next day and have good relationships with their teachers,” she said. “Engaging classrooms are so important for that to happen.” Overall Kiewiet is excited to connect with students in the role as principal and see students’ successes collectively and individually in a school she says is overwhelming accepting. “The kids here accept each other regardless of race, sexual preference and background,” she said. “I love that about our school. And it’s my job to make sure and do what’s best for every kid.”

Regular school for an extraordinary Joe Allow me to tell you about Joe. Joe was a student I had, oh, 15 years ago, and Joe was brilliant! He was smart, a gifted musician, and one of those guys who was genuinely well-liked in every social circle of the school. Joe thrived because Joe was ambitious and hard-working. Period. That industry and ambition were fed by a very supportive family and, frankly, Joe would have thrived anywhere. In fact, there was a music program just down the road from us that was quite a bit more successful than the one I was in charge of, and I wonder if Joe ever thought to transfer there. In reality, it wouldn’t have made much difference for Joe — he would have still thrived. But, thanks in no small part to Joe’s presence, our program had a couple really spectacular seasons while he was there: what talent there was gravitated towards Joe, and they created some pretty cool opportunities for themselves. After graduation, Joe went on to one of the top music schools in the country, and is now making a living as a musician. I say this to illustrate why I am not a

big believer in school vouchers, or, for the most part, in the way we attempt to do charter schools around here. Had Joe been in just an abysmal situation, his highly interested and supportive family would have sought out a brighter opportunity for him, and the end result for Joe would have been about the same as it was. But the students left behind would have been deprived of a great experience. I know, as I write this, that I’m breaking in philosophy with some of my friends. But my experience teaches me that the end result of a voucher program, taken ad absurdum, would be an awful stratification of our education system.

Students from good homes would all end up flocking together in “good” schools, and students from less ideal situations — whatever that means — would get “left behind” in “the system.” And I know, as a parent, that it’s not my job to worry about other people’s children; and I certainly know that it’s not Joe’s responsibility to rescue his peers. But, from a public policy standpoint, we should be looking at the whole spectrum. Are there places where vouchers should be tried? Yeah. Places where the system is already so irrecoverably corrupt and harmful to students that rescuing any of them is a greater good. I’m thinking about places like Washington, D.C., New York, or Chicago — places where the bar of success is set somewhere around getting through the day without a stabbing at school. But, not here. Likewise, I am unimpressed with the charter school system. Granted, a couple of them—Peak to Peak comes to mind — have had impressive success; but just as many, if not more, are failures, and most of them show little, if any, improvement

over neighborhood schools while offering far fewer curricular choices. Were charter schools treated like petri dishes, and all their successful reforms co-opted by neighborhood schools, that would be one thing; but, as it is, I just don’t see broad, systemic value in expanding charter schools. What kind of school would have provided greater benefit to students like Joe? Well, I’m out of column-inches for this week, so that dissertation is going to have to wait for another week. Let me just leave you with this: it is my belief that there is nothing in our current debates that offers great hope for widespread change. The systemic inertia is too massive. Change will come to the system when we start to change how we think — and argue — about it.

Spaceport license application in final stages County works on getting Front Range designated for space transport By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Adams County should hear by the end of 2014 if Front Range Airport will have a spaceport designation. The county is in the final stages of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) application for a license that would allow the airport to launch space-bound payloads, which could include passengers. “We’re really excited about the potential this has for Adams County, the region and Colorado,” said Kristin Sullivan, Adams County economic development manager. “We believe (the designation) would be an incredible catalyst for the aerospace industry for all of Colorado.” Some of that potential would be the economic boost of spacecraft development and manufacturing, space tourism and point-to-point traveling. Sullivan said that the average salary for jobs in the aerospace industry is $120,000 annually. “These are the types of jobs we’re looking to attract,” she said.

Point-to-point traveling could mean a traveler could get to Europe in three hours as opposed to the 12 hours it takes now, Sullivan said. “It seems far-fetched but this is what the new space industry looks like,” she said. FAA Associate Administrator for Commercial Space Transportation George Nield toured Front Range May 19. Front Range is one of six locations nationwide applying for the FAA license. There are already eight licensed facilities. “Commercial space transportation has grown at an incredible pace,” Nield said in a statement. “Ten years ago it was the space shuttle and it was the government operating. Now we have two private companies operating, with many more in the development process.” The county began in February 2013 the application process, which has included an environmental assessment, a safety evaluation and a business plan. A required public hearing and public comment period are among the last steps of the application and should happen during the summer. Sullivan said the application should be submitted in September and the FAA will have 180 days to evaluate it and issue a ruling. In a March 12 letter to Nield, U.S. Sens. Mark Udall and Michael Bennet, and U.S. Reps. Mike Coffman, Ed Perlmutter, Cory

A view of Front Range Airport from the tower. The airport has nearly 4,000 acres of land, mostly vacant, which makes it ideal for growth if it receives the spaceport designation by the Federal Aviation Administration. Courtesy photo by Adams County Gardner, Diana DeGette, Jared Polis and Doug Lamborn expressed their support for the airport’s designation as spaceport. “Located on 4,000 acres of land and surrounded by 6,000 acres of privately owned industrial property, Front Range Airport is remote yet only six miles from Denver

International Airport,” the letter states. “These natural advantages, combined with the resources available from Colorado’s aerospace community, have Front Range Airport well-situated as a key cog in the effort to further develop commercial space transportation in Colorado.”

president of the Mentor Consulting Group. She spoke about the importance of mentoring. “I don’t like the term ‘at risk’ for children,” she said. “I would rather use the term ‘on the brink of success’ for those kids out there.” Hoffman said she hopes the conference installed a commitment to the vision that all kids can be successful in Adams County. She referred to the conference as a pep rally. “Really what this conference did was help build the toolboxes of all who attended,” she said. “Hopefully people left with resources and tools on how to support students who are dealing with different situations in their lives, whether that be poverty or learning the English language.”

District 50 facing budget cuts By Ashley Reimers

June 14 thru August 3

County Youth Initiative, ACYI, was filled with workshops in topic ranging from mentoring and poverty prevention to family engagement and adoption. ACYI executive director Becky Hoffman said a big focus for ACYI is increasing school attendance, which was also discussed at the conference. “We are looking at ways to authentically engage young people and their parents,” she said. “And also looking at services we can provide families to help our youth get to school and be successful.” Kicking off the conference were Adams County commissioners Eva Henry and Chaz Tedesco, who both spoke about their upbringing, lives and how they made it to where they are today. Following the commissioners was key note speaker Susan Weinberger,

areimers@colorado communitymedia.com Adams County School District 50 is facing a $3.8 million cut in funds for the 2014-2015 school year. The cut in the budget comes after a $5.25 million mill levy override failed at the ballot box last November, which would have replenished reserve funds used to balance last year’s budget. “We had to make some difficult decisions,” superintendent Pam Swanson said. “As I have stated on many occasions, the failure of last year’s mill levy override had a profound impact on our budgeting process. While our financial position remains strong, it is critically important that

we stop deficit spending in District 50.” During the budget process, the district’s Financial Oversight Committee proposed three budget cut options: a minimum cut of $2.5 million, a mid-range cut of $3.8 million and a maximum cut of $5.25 million. Staff settled on the $3.8 million budget reduction recommended to the school board, which must approve a budget by June 30. Sandra McClure, chief financial officer for the district, said with the $2.5 million option, more cuts will have to be made next year and with the $5.25 million option, there’s a chance the district could receive more funds from the state, which could result in overcutting. “It’s rough to have to

make cuts. We’ve been able to get by, but now with the mill levy override failing, we don’t have enough money in reserves to fill that cut,” McClure said. The major changes in the proposed budget include the elimination of 63 positions, done through attrition and retirement, increased pupil-teacher ratios by 1.5 students, increased walk distance of a half-mile for students using transportation services, reduced summer school programming, elimination of the Young Parent Program at Hidden Lake High School and a mandatory .9 percent increase in funding for Public Employees Retirement Association PERA. McClure said with such a big cut, it’s difficult not to

affect classroom size. “We met with every principal and they were okay with the increase in class size because it’s easier for them to try and absorb that than cutting out programs like music or the arts,” she said. “Principals are shuffling around teachers and classrooms, and combining classes to accommodate the change.” The school board will be reviewing the budget and possibly adopting the budget at the June 10 meeting. At that time, the community is welcome to voice any concerns or ask questions regarding the budget. Before then, the public can view the entire budget online at www.adams50.org.

Gone, but not forgotten: Students honor Miss Jo Students remember memory of faculty with reading bench By Crystal Anderson

canderson@colorado communitymedia.com For years Miss Jo saw each student at Warder Elementary School, welcoming them with a smile and a hug. Prior to the start of the school year, Miss Jo, who had been suffering from cancer, passed away, to the shock and sadness of her family, friends, colleagues and students at Warder Elementary School. “She was like our grandma,” said Jeffery Ortega, a student at Warder. “She always had a smile on her face, and we loved her, she came into our family, and we miss her — a lot.” To keep her spirit smiling, Warder’s student council decided to build a reading bench, in honor of her favorite activity and her loving spirit. After searching through magazines and books for a memorial bench, Warder’s student council, and their teacher

aide, Lauralee Huff, decided to collaborate with the tech education department and students at Wayne Carle Middle School, to design and build a bench in honor of her memory. “I want my students to do real life projects,” said Joe Buzzitta, a tech education teacher at Wayne Carle. “It gives them a buy in to something bigger than themselves, to say hey, this is a school lost a staff member, let’s step up and build something that can be in her memory.” Four students designed and built the bench in a few weeks. The final design, an oak reading bench with her image engraved on the front, was dedicated to Miss Jo’s husband and daughter in May by Buzzitta, his students and the Warder Student Council. “She was a spitfire of a grandma,” Huff said. “She loved her job and looked forward to coming to school every day. She adopted all of us.” Miss Jo was the kitchen manager at Warder Elementary with a long history in the district. Prior to her time at Warder, she was an avid member of the Russell Elementary School community and was an active participant in school events and activities.

Students from Warder Elementary sit, gathered around Ms. Joe’s memory bench, giving her a big group hug. Photo by Crystal Anderson Her bench now sits in Warder’s front hallway. For her students, Miss Jo was more than a lunch lady, she was a teacher, a grandmother, a friend, and her spirit lives

on, within her memory and the bench. “She’s ... her spirit is still in the bench with us,” said second grade student council member Anthony Niehoff.

County signs $9.8M purchase agreement Westminster property to house various human services operations By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Adams County has agreed to buy a parcel of land in Westminster to house some of its operations. The Board of County Commissioners voted 2-0 during its May 19 regular meeting on a purchase and sale agreement with IBC Denver VIII, LW, VI, LLC. District 1 Commissioner Eva Henry was absent. The parcel of land is located in the Park 12 Hundred commercial redevelopment at 1200 W. 120th Ave. The county has agreed to pay $9,836,393.20 for approximately 23.44 acres of land that has a three-story, 297,172 square-foot office building. “In late 2013, our Facilities, Planning and Operations Department was tasked with identifying properties that might accommodate two of our older and most inefficient buildings, specifically the Human Services and the CFC (Children and Family Services Center) buildings,” said Deputy County Manager Ed Finger. “And as a result of that, using a broker and looking at

a number of different properties, we came to the conclusion that the one at 1200 W. 120th Ave. was probably the most operational advantageous to us.” Park 12 Hundred sits on 106 acres on 120th between Huron and Pecos streets. The land used to house Western Electric, and most recently, the telecommunications company Avaya. Avaya moved its lab operation into the former Quest data center on Grant Street, north of 120th, in Thornton. The property has 1,231 existing parking spots and there are plans to add 136 spots in the future. The site is close to a RTD park `n ride and Interstate 25. Finger said the agreement provides for an initial 90-day inspection period and an option for an additional 30 days for inspection that the county would use to do appraisals and inspections to make sure the building is fit for purchase. “We have virtually an unlimited out from this agreement if for any reason we decide this building doesn’t meet our needs,” he said. He added that staff would update the board monthly on how the inspection efforts were going and give a final recommendation before the inspection time ran out.

Garage sale more than a deal Community event includes evening entertainment By Ashley Reimers areimers@coloradocommunitymedia.com For years, the Countryside community in Westminster has hosted a garage sale event, offering the public ample opportunity to browse a variety of sales at homes. For this year’s sale the neighborhood is also offering evening entertainment. This year’s sale is on June 6 and 7 in the Countryside subdivision, located near 100th Avenue and Garland Street. The sale is sponsored by two Realtors who live in the area, Stacey Alyk and Chris George, in collaboration with the Neighbors for Country-

side, NFC, a grassroots organization of concerned residents who own private property in the Countryside subdivision. Dave DeMott with the NFC said the community sale has been around for many years, he even remembers it when he was a kid. He said for this year’s event, the NFC wanted to focus on a community aspect in an effort to bring together the neighbors in the subdivision. Part of that effort is a movie night and sidewalk chalk competition. The movie night starts at 7 p.m. on June 7 at the Countryside little league baseball fields. Families are welcome to bring chairs, blankets and picnics to the movie. The sidewalk chalk competition will happen near the West View Recreation Center during the late afternoon hours. The winners will receive prizes donated from Sonic.

“We really want to have a community feel here in Countryside,” DeMott said. “We want to welcome the new, young families into the neighborhood and get them involved in the community too.” As far as the sale goes, DeMott said he expects to have at least 50 homes participate. After he complies the final list of addresses, DeMott plans to post the list on the NFC website, www.countrysidecommunity.org. “With the list online, people can then go to the list with their smart phones, click on an address and then have directions to the house they are looking for to do some shopping,” he said. A start time for the garage sale hasn’t been established yet, but DeMott said the NFC website will have all the details posted before the sale begins.

CDOT Project Direct Mark Gosselin said it’s necessary to close US 36 to begin the demolition of the northbound section of the McCaslin Boulevard bridge. The work is part of Phase 2 of the project, which will widen the existing McCaslin Boulevard bridge to accommodate the Diverging Diamond Interchange. Traffic will be detoured at the US 36 off-ramps to McCaslin Boulevard and routed immediately back onto U.S. 36 via the on-ramps. Following this partial demolition of the McCaslin Boulevard bridge, crews will construct the abutments and build the center pier. After that, crews will set the girders and pour the concrete bridge deck. For more information about the project, visit us36expresslanes.com or our mobile website at m.us36expresslanes.com.

Jeffco Board of Education hired Daniel McMinimee as superintendent for the Jefferson County School District with a split vote. Despite disagreement among board members and chanting from the audience, the board May 27 approved hiring of McMinimee by a 3-2 vote, with board members Jill Fellman and Lesley Dahlkemper opposed. “I think we made an outstanding choice for the superintendent of Jeffco, and I am delighted we are able to move forward with the hiring process,” said Board President Ken Witt. The board had a lengthy discussion about McMinimee’s hiring and key points — such as salary and performance measures — in his contract. In the process, several motions, subordinate motions and amendments were voted down by a threetwo vote of the majority. McMinimee is assistant superintendent of secondary education in Douglas County School District. He has been with the district for 12 years and started as the founding principal of Rock Canyon High School in 2003. “I think tonight’s meeting sent the wrong message to our community,” Dahlkemper said. “I have never seen this district more divided than it is right now. My hope is that we would be able to come together, and we would work together.” Prior to the discussion, the board received a copy of a petition, gathered by community member Michael Clark, and heard 22 of the 87 people signed up to address the board. During the allotted 45 minutes, many people urged the board to not hire McMinimee, and said the board should follow set practices, be transparent, listen to the community and reopen the search process, which cost $40,000. “I have become very concerned with what has been going on,” Clark said. “The board has done a lot of things that has violated their own board policies, including the fact they didn’t properly follow their superintendent search. I actually did vote for

The newly-appointed superintendent, Daniel McMinimee, left, was greeted by a community members following the Jeffco Board of Education meeting, Tuesday, May 27. Photo by Crystal Anderson both Mr. Witt and Mr. (John) Newkirk and that makes my disappointment that much greater.” Out of 63 applicants, McMinimee was named the sole finalist for the position on May 10, instead of narrowing the process to three candidates at that point. In his new position, McMinimee will manage more than 85,000 students who attend the district’s 155 schools. “Moving forward we want to do everything that we can that’s in the best interest of kids and continue to work towards those goals that set student achievement,” Dahlkemper said. According to the draft contract, McMinimee will earn a base salary of $280,000, with the addition of bonuses and some covered expenses over the next five years. The salary is about 27 percent more than his predecessor, Cindy Stevenson, who made $204,000 annually. The board will discuss and vote on the final details of his contract during its next scheduled board meeting June 5. His start date is July 1 on the proposed contract but has been confirmed. Despite the evening’s interactions, some community members, such as Lisa Lee, a teacher at Wheat Ridge Middle School, felt excited about the unity she’s seen among the Jeffco teachers, parents and the community, since the new board was seated last November. “Other than everything else that you’ve probably heard, I’m mostly excited,” Lee said following the meeting. “I’m excited because it’s unified our community with a common cause that I’ve never seen before.”

opinions / yours and ours

Wildfire reports sound a call to action With the recent rain and hail that pounded much of the Front Range, bringing flooding to some areas, wildfires may not seem like an imminent threat. But trends tell us otherwise. It’s not a matter of if, but when. Earlier this spring, the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control released some chilling information in a special report to the governor and General Assembly. The report focused on strategies to enhance the state’s aerial firefighting capabilities. In making its case for that, the report stated that since the 1990s, “the number, intensity, and complexity of wildfires in Colorado have been growing exponentially, and experts predict that it will continue to worsen.” The length of the wildfire season is

our view growing, too, the report said. “In general, Colorado sees short periods of increased fire occurrence throughout the year with just a few of the fires reaching a significant size or complexity. However, the drought conditions and fire activity experienced throughout 2012 — one of the worst wildfire seasons in state history — may be representative of a new normal. Experts warn that drought and the other causal factors could result in repeats of 2012 with widespread fire activity and extended, year-long wildfire seasons.” In recent months, several reports have

blamed wildfire trends like this across the West on global warming, perhaps further evidence of a “new normal.” Given the bigger picture, it’s difficult for us to find solace in the mid-May prediction by state experts of a “normal” 2014 wildfire season. Even a pre-2012 “normal” means an average year in Colorado would see thousands of fires, with 30 of them being large, destructive blazes. But if 2012 — when 260,000 acres in the state were scorched, more than 600 structures destroyed and six people killed — is a sign of things to come, that’s truly alarming. To their credit, state legislators and Gov. John Hickenlooper took action this past session. On May 12, Hickenlooper signed into law a bill creating the state’s first aerial firefighting fleet. The legislation,

which comes with a $21 million price tag, creates a fleet of four planes — two leased and two owned by the state — and four leased helicopters and designates money for a center to study high-tech firefighting tactics. The primary goal, as outlined in the division of fire prevention’s report, is to keep fires small. If the fleet can help cut down on an average year’s $42 million in fire-suppression-expenses, while saving lives, acres and property, it will be money well spent. One thing is for certain when it comes to wildfires in Colorado: Inaction is not an option. With the ominous reports that have surfaced, lawmakers here and in other Western states would be wise to read and react for years to come.

This is not a “hot off the press” news flash, but rather a simple yet powerful reminder: “Common sense is not always common practice.” You have certainly heard this before, and I have absolutely heard it myself and even repeated it in classroom training, keynote speeches, and from time to time have shared it in this column over the past few years. What I wanted to do in this column is take this principle to the next level. Recently I shared how important fundamentals are to success in both our personal and professional lives. However, now let’s talk about not just common sense, but those lesser-known best practices that actually deliver uncommon results. For a few of us, we are exactly where we want to be in life. We are settled, content, happy and may have no desire or need to look for anything that elevates or disrupts our splendid contentedness. Now for the rest of us who truly desire “uncommon results,” we need to continue to follow the blocking and tackling fundamentals that have gotten us this far, but now we need to look beyond the basics and proven fundamentals and search out the advanced ideas and best practices to help propel us as we continue on the upward journey of our success. So where do we go or how do we search for those best practices that can add value to our lives? Here are three ideas that have helped me over the years and that you may also find useful and help lead you to uncommon results. 1. Identify the person, group, or team that you believe excels in the area you are trying to advance in or improve. Upon connecting with them, invite them to coffee or arrange a call or meeting and just ask them what they have found to be the differentiators or best practices that have helped them to achieve uncommon results. You will be amazed to find out just how open and willing they will be to share

their success story with you. 2. Get out of your comfort zone and try something new. Even as you are enjoying the benefits of your success or achievements, push yourself to try something new that will stretch you and push you to the next level. 3. Look for biographies, articles, stories, and case studies of people, companies, or groups that achieved greatness or exceeded expectations by doing something out of the norm or beyond common practices to realize uncommon results. Again, if you are content and happy with where you are with the achievements of your goals and dreams, that is awesome. But if you have ever dreamed of going higher, further, or faster and truly desire more in the way of achieving uncommon results, apply all or at least one or two of the above best practices and see if you too can be one of those people whose achievements shout out “uncommon results.” Whether you are in the land of contentment or on the road to uncommon and better results, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And as we appreciate where we are or pursue uncommon results, it really will be a better than good week.

Fund would boost infrastructure Last month, I had the honor of attending the grand opening of Denver’s Union Station. The new transit hub pays homage not only to the miners and pioneers who — more than 150 years ago — envisioned our city’s bright future, but also to our parents and grandparents who had the foresight and generosity to build the highways, waterways and energy infrastructure that helped make the American economy the largest in the world. Unfortunately, we have not had the dignity to maintain the assets that they built for us, much less build the infrastructure our children will need to compete in a 21st-century economy. At a time when other nations are constructing cutting-edge road, rail, Internet and education capacity, our public infrastructure investment has dwindled to half of what it was 50 years ago. The Highway Trust Fund, the funding vehicle that pays for most of the bridge, highway and road construction in this country, is expected to run out of money this summer. Last year, the U.S. received

a D-plus letter grade on the Infrastructure Report Card from the American Society of Civil Engineers. To make matters worse, the bill that authorizes transportation projects called MAP-21, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century, is set to expire Sept. 30. It’s clear that we are falling woefully behind. We can and must do better. Rather than arguing over which party got us into this dire situation or pointing fingers at who’s to blame, some of us in Congress have been working on solutions. Here’s one that will help. Earlier this year, Republican Sen. Roy Blunt and I introduced the Partnership

to Build America Act. It establishes a $50 billion infrastructure fund to support hundreds of billions in loan guarantees and financing authority for state and local governments. The fund could be used to finance the construction of roads, highways, ports, canals, schools and other infrastructure projects — urgently needed projects like the Arkansas Valley Conduit in southeast Colorado or the widening of Interstate 25 north of Denver, to pick just two examples. The act would also encourage public-private partnerships, which will help stretch the fund’s financing to cover more high-priority projects. Even by the most conservative estimates, these projects would create thousands of jobs across the nation. The fund itself would not be created by taxpayers, but by U.S. companies. The act encourages businesses to contribute to the fund by creating an incentive to bring a limited amount of their earnings back to the country from overseas. This bill is not a cure-all. It is not a per-

manent fix to the insolvency of the Highway Trust Fund, nor will it take the place of MAP-21, both important legislative vehicles that Congress needs to address in the next four months. Whether it’s an interchange reconstruction in El Paso County to improve traffic flow, or a road-widening project in Alamosa County to improve visitor access to the Great Sand Dunes, this bill will provide a valuable tool in the toolbox so that local mayors, county commissioners and city councilors don’t have to wait on a dysfunctional Washington to get moving on much-needed infrastructure projects. As Denver’s Union Station shows, we’re a nation and a state that builds big things, and builds them to last. Each generation has labored to leave more behind for their kids. Ours should be no exception. This commonsense, bipartisan legislation will help us take a step in that direction. Democrat Michael Bennet has represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate since 2009.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Moving forward with pride I was one of the 60-plus who did not get a chance to speak during public comment last night, despite being signed up. So, I’m submitting my prepared 2-minute comment, which I would have preferred to share directly and in person with the Jeffco School Board, here: New superintendent Dan McMinimee has said publicly that he understands our district needs to heal. Meanwhile board members Ken Witt and Julie Williams continue to pick at the scab by making divisive social media posts and doing nothing to promote transparency. I believe Mr. Witt intentionally wants

to drive a wedge between Mr. McMinimee and the community, so that Mr. McMinimee will not feel empowered to advocate for what is right — things like holding this board accountable to board policies and state laws. I believe it was Mr. Witt’s intention all along to put forth just one finalist to avoid any public vetting of candidates. This does not help Mr. McMinimee be successful. I believe Mr. Witt was researching superintendent candidates well before it was appropriate — we’ve heard rumors about Mr. McMinimee being groomed for this job, even chosen before the search began. Mr. Witt’s actions give credence to these rumors. Again, this does not help Mr. McMinimee be successful.

Add to that Ms. Williams’ Facebook post noting that the, quote, “Reform minded board members and Dan McMinimee need your support today.” I’m guessing Mr. McMinimee would prefer to avoid that kind of co-branding. Earlier in the post, Ms. Williams warns her followers that their voice might, quote, “be drowned out by the progressives.” How is this even remotely in keeping with Policy GP-08, Board Member Covenants, which says that “Board members commit to communications that build MUTUAL expectations and TRUST.” From the moment you were sworn in, there has been distrust and chaos in our district. We are becoming a joke in the

metro area, around the state and even around the country. You hold in your hands the futures of 85,000 students — students who will carry the Jeffco brand on their diplomas as they venture out in the world. You also hold in your hands the professional reputation of Mr. McMinimee. Thus far, Mr. Witt and Ms. Williams, I am not seeing anything that makes me think you take pride in Jeffco’s character, intend to be thoughtful about Jeffco’s reputation, or even care about the controversial position in which you’ve placed your sole superintendent candidate. Kelly Johnson Golden

Whatever happened to loyalty? Loyalty seems to have gotten run over by a Mack truck over the years. What is loyalty anyway? It is a quality or state of being faithful to your country, a person, an institution, a belief, a cause, a business etc. There is an adherence to the person, institution, cause etc. in which you have faith and in which you believe. Back in the day, major league baseball players were “loyal” to their team and their fans and usually played for a single team during their entire career. It wasn’t about the money. It was a relationship where both parties were treated fairly. Shoppers use to be more strident in their loyalty to particular retail stores i.e. “I always shopped at May D&F” or “They have the best maintenance service at my car dealer.” The public used to be loyal to their bank, their school district, their car dealer, their television provider and you get the point. Whatever happened? What happened to this intangible “gluelike” relationship between two parties? I always thought as an employee that I should be loyal to my employer. My father-in-law was a banker in a small Midwest town. His family had a belief that they should shop and do business with those companies and retailers who had a business relationship with the bank. “Loyal customers” of a restaurant are those who eat there regularly and you see them there come rain or shine. “Loyal followers” of a particular book author will read each book written by the author regardless of the reviews. I have a few favorite authors which include Nelson DeMille, John Grisham, Ken Follett and Daniel Silva. I read their books with some books being really good (from my perspective) while others were “just so-so.”\ Will I purchase or check out the next offering of these authors regardless of their last book? Yes, indeed I will. That is loyalty. Enticed by the best offer Today’s fickle shopper is not influenced by loyalty. They are looking for the best possible deal. Whether it is the price of gasoline, the best “bundle” deal on TV, Internet and telephone or getting a free electronic device for opening a new banking account, today’s shopper is motivated by the best

deal and best price. Then when the 12 months or minimum contract is fulfilled, they will jump ship and sign up with a competitor. Such a scenario is not a surprise with today’s thinking. Perhaps it is a generational thing. Us “seniors” tend to be loyal while Baby Boomers and younger folks probably are more about the deal. However, who gets the short end of the lollipop when you do practice loyalty? It’s the loyal long-time customer. They don’t get the 12 month cut-rate pricing on the latest “bundle.” They don’t get the free electronics for being a customer of the bank for 20 years or more. Is that fair? No, what if everyone had the mindset of wanting the best offer, the lowest rate, and the free enticement? Let’s face it; businesses depend on a portion of their customers or clientele to remain with them “come rain or come shine.” Something for the loyal customer So, what is the punch line in this “Loyal Customer’s Lament”? It is simple. Retailers, service providers like financial institutions, professional service providers like accountants, doctors and dentists and restaurants etc. should be more cognizant of their loyal customers and give thought to some sort of a “loyalty program” to reward them. Bring back something like the S&H stamp booklets or nine punches on the card, and your 10th frozen yogurt is free or re-structure the enticing offers to sign up brand new customers with a premium or two for your long-time “Steady Eddie” customers or clients. Or, drop the whole enticement strategy/lower initial rates for new customers and depend solely on good service and quality products. Nuf said!!

Did Josh McDaniels help build the Manning-led Broncos? This isn’t going to be easy to do. I am going to try and make a hero out of the ultimate Denver Broncos’ villain. In 2009, the Broncos fired iconic head coach Mike Shanahan and hired 33-year-old Josh McDaniels. McDaniels went on to win the first six games of his coaching career, but then went 5-17 after his fast start and was fired before the completion of the 2010 season. However, during his short tenure McDaniels was more than just a coach. McDaniels, like Shanahan, was given general manager power as well as head coaching duties and was able to orchestrate the 2009 and 2010 NFL Drafts for the Broncos. What McDaniels did — and didn’t do — with those two drafts would eventually lead to John Elway’s eventual hire, as well as Peyton Manning’s historic swan song that he is currently leading. Let me explain. Denver had five picks in the first two rounds of the 2009 draft. The Broncos had two first round picks selected Knowshon Moreno No. 12 overall and then Robert Ayers No. 18 overall. McDaniels then drafted Alphonso

Smith, Darcel McBath and Robert Quinn all in the second round. Five seasons later none of those five Broncos remain with the club and those misses in the draft played a giant role in the Broncos having little success and going 4-12 in 2010. But the 2010 draft would go on to be one of the most historic in the team’s rich history for a lot of different reasons. Denver again had two first round picks in 2010 and would draft Demaryius Thomas No. 22 overall with their first pick. The Broncos and McDaniels then shocked the sports world by trading back into the first round and drafting Tim Tebow with the No. 25 overall pick. Also in the 2010 draft Denver selected

Zane Beadles in the second round followed by both J.D. Walton and Eric Decker in the third round. Again, the Broncos were a complete disaster in 2010, leading to McDaniels firing before the season’s end. Elway and then John Fox were then hired by the team. 2011 brought in new hope but with Kyle Orton still the team’s starting quarterback the team started 1-4, and possibly due more to fan reaction than actually earning the job, Tebow was inserted into the lineup and NFL history was made. Tebow led the Broncos to six straight wins, an AFC title and an incredible playoff win over the Steelers, all with a team that had no business even making the playoffs. Credit Tebow, credit Elway or Fox, credit Mile High Magic, but I am going to credit McDaniels — not only for what played out in 2011 but moreover for what has played out since. Hidden under the Broncos’ miracle 2011 season was an ugly 2010 4-12 disaster. But somehow, someway, Tebow covered up that stink and the Broncos won the AFC West in 2011.

The following offseason Peyton Manning became a free agent. Manning flirted with the San Francisco 49ers, the Tennessee Titans and the Houston Texans, but because of the Broncos surprising success in 2010, Denver became a proposition that looked more and more enticing to the future Hall-of-Famer. The combination of that 2011 success paired up with a great young offensive group that consisted of Thomas, Decker, Beadles and Walton — all 2010 McDaniels’ draftees — made the Broncos the most attractive team to Manning. Since Manning chose the Broncos the club has had two of the most prolific seasons in the franchise’s history. Whether or not Denver will go on to win a Super Bowl under Manning is still very much an unknown. But one thing that has become clearer is that McDaniels drafting of Tebow and Thomas helped lure Manning to Denver and helped lay down the groundwork for much of their current success. Is McDaniels a hero? That might be pushing it. But is he the ultimate Broncos’ villain? Not to me.

It’s Miller time again The other day I opened up the patio door and out flew several miller moths. During the course of the next days they became more prevalent. Now they are swarming around the intersections and we now will have to put up with those pesky creatures for several weeks.

It was horrendous Some years ago when the children were younger we rented a cabin on Sauk Lake in Sauk Center, Minnesota. We were the first of the season occupants and as soon as we opened the door the dance began. They literally flew in swarms and they were everywhere. Of course the children were frightened especially when they found them in the bedding and in the bath. We killed miller by the dustpan full of the ornery moths. There wasn’t a space to sit on or a table to eat on. We should have contacted the cabin

owner but that meant we would have a place to stay so we kept swatting Miller moths for the whole week. We never did get the upper hand and vowed to never rent a cabin unless it had been de-millered.

The worst ones But the worst of the miller moths are the ones that get in your car. They can cause one to get in an accident trying to roll the windows down and drive them out. Of course another place they love

to congregate is around the lamp lights. It is so agitating in the bedroom to have them flying around the lamp shades. I can put up with a little spider in my bedroom but I go ape when a miller invades my space and I can’t quit swatting until they are dead. Now I read that they are really on their way to Nebraska for their summer stay. Well to Nebraska I say, “please welcome them and keep them coming your way. I’ll keep on killing them with a vengeance.” Stay well, stay involved and stay tuned. Vi June is past Democratic state representative for House District 35.

Museum honors veterans during event By Tammy Kranz

The Adams County Museum will honor veterans Sunday with its 11th Annual Tribute — D-Day Remembered. While all veterans will be honored, a special recognition will be made for World War II soldiers as June 6 marks the 70th anniversary of D-Day — the Allied invasion of Normandy. “We originally were trying to do something for Veterans Day but there were so many things going on so we decided to do something unique — celebrate D-Day,” said Casey Hayes, who spearheads the annual event. Hayes was too young to serve in the war, but he is full of knowledge about the battles and the lives lost. “World War II has been said to be the last good war, but I don’t know what war could be good,” Hayes said. He added that most World War II veterans are now in their 90s and more and more are dying each year. “This is the first year we won’t have a

World War II veteran (as part of the tribute),” Hayes said. Usually more than 100 people attend the free annual event, which will feature live music and a light lunch. “This event seems such a small tribute, but it’s something we can do from the bottom of our hearts,” the museum’s administrator Dixie Pierce said. Pierce recalled how one veteran in a past event cried because he was so honored. “These men just have such heart, they are so patriotic,” she said. The Golden Eagle Concert Band — a 50-piece community band — will play music from that era, such as George M. Cohan and John Phillip Sousa. Most of the buildings at the museum complex will be opened to the public. Military posters, uniforms, equipment, flags will be on display. The event takes place at 2 p.m. Sunday, June 8, in the Hoffman Hall at the museum, 9601 Henderson Road in Brighton. Attendees are encouraged to bring their vintage cars or military vehicles. For more information, call 303-659-7103 or visit www.adamscountymuseum.com.

World War II bomber visits Denver By Tammy Kranz tkranz@colorado communitymedia.com Most World War II veterans are in their 90s and the number of them living is dwindling. According to the U.S. Veterans Administration, 555 veterans die each day. “With each death goes another story of courage and valor,” said Scott Maher, director of operations for the Liberty Foundation. “This airplane we hope properly represents those stories.”

The Liberty Foundations’ B-17 Flying Fortress will be in Denver this weekend at Rocky Mountain Metro Airport as part of its 2014 Salute to Veterans tour. “We visit 50 cities a year,” Maher said. “We travel the country to honor our veterans, preserve our aviation history and teach current and future generations the high price of our freedom. This is hands-on history. This isn’t something you find between dusty pages of a book.” There were a total of 12,732 of these bombers

produced between 1935 and 1945, 4,735 of those planes were lost in combat. The B-17 in Denver this weekend was made at the end of World War II and never saw combat, Maher said. Today only nine of B-17s are still flying, and only four offers flights to the public, he said. Flights are available on the B-17 this weekend for $450 per person. All proceeds go toward the plane’s operational costs. “It costs $5,000 an hour to fly the plane,” Maher said. “We can burn through

$15,000 worth of fuel in just one weekend.” He added that the annual insurance cost is $100,000. The flights last about 30 minutes and passengers only have to be in their seats for the takeoff and landing. “While they’re flying, they can visit the cockpit, the class nose and all crew positions to really get a feel for what this historic aircraft was like during the war,” Maher said. Those crew positions include the Bomb bay, radio room and the waist gunner stations.

The B-17 Flying Fortress will be at Rocky Mountain Metro Airport Saturday and Sunday offering flights and ground tours. Photo by Tammy Kranz Maher said people who cannot afford the flights are still welcomed to come out to the airport, watch the plane fly and take a free ground tour after the flights are finished. The B-17 Flying Fortress

will be at the Rocky Mountain Metro Airport, 11705 Airport Way in Broomfield, Saturday, June 7, and Sunday, June 8. For more information or to reserve a flight, call 918340-0243 or visit www.libertyfoundation.org.

weight-loss season gets glitzy kickoff 3-day event features speakers, art and history exhibit, movie By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@colorado communitymedia.com Rocky Flats stopped producing nuclear weapons in 1989 after the FBI and Environmental Protection Agency raided the facility. It has been 25 years, yet there is still ongoing community dialogue about the land and facility rocky flats — the then and now health impact WHAT: Speakers, movie, on its exhibits, performance emarts ployWHERE: Arvada Center ees, the 6901 Wadsworth Blvd. conWHEN: June 6-8 taminaCOST: Free tion of INFO: https://arvadaradiocenter.org/on-stage/ active rocky-flats-then-andwaste now-2014 leaks, the housing developments on the southern and eastern borders, to just name a few topics. To mark the 25th anniversary of the raid, the Arvada Center for Arts and Humanities is hosting a comprehensive three-day multi-faceted event June 6-8. Rocky Flats Then and Now:

A 1978 demonstration protesting the work done at Rocky Flats.

25 years After the Raid will feature panel discussions focusing on the raid; an art and history exhibit (including photographs and artifacts from the plant); a viewing of “Dark Circle,” an Emmy Award winning documentary — all activities will be free. “We have a chance to look at this story from a variety of perspectives and shed some light on it,” said Philip C. Sneed, executive director of the Arvada Center. “We’ll hear from different people with different points of view of Rocky Flats then and now.” Among the people scheduled to speak are Len Ackland, who authored “Making a Real Killing: Rocky Flats and the Nuclear West”; former Colorado Gov. Roy Romer and former U.S. Rep. David Skaggs, both who were in office during the raid; former FBI agent Jon Lipsky; author Kristen Iverson, who wrote “Full Body Burden: Growing up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats”; poet Anne Waldman; and former plant workers, neighbors, activists and scientists and other experts on the topic. “Rocky Flats is an important part of Arvada’s history,

and yet it’s a story with regional, national, and even international impact,” Sneed said. He stressed that the event is neutral and not meant to reassure either side of the debate about Rocky Flats. The goals of the event are to educate the public and promote respectful dialogue. “We’re hoping we’re giving enough information on both points of views that attendees can make up their own mind,” Sneed said. The event will also feature several artists from different mediums, Sneed said, “So,

we’ll get a sense of how the artistic community responded to Rocky Flats.” Sneed said it the center is hosting the event for free to gauge the community interest in these types of activities. “This is the new thing for us, to try and live up to the second part of our name (humanities),” he said. He added that arts and humanities are important ways to tell a story. “When you put both the arts and humanities disciplines together you get a far greater, and deeper, and broader understanding of the things that affect us, Sneed said. For more information on the event and a complete schedule, visit http://arvadacenter.org/on-stage/rockyflats-then-and-now-2014.

The fourth season of ABC’s reality series “Extreme Weight Loss” debuted May 27 with a red-carpet reception at The United Artists Denver Pavilions Theatre downtown. Charita, the Colorado Springs contestant, was guided on her yearlong weightloss journey by Anschutz Health and Wellness Center’s Dr. Holly Wyatt along with other participants who spent the first three months of their quest at the center in Aurora. Wyatt, alongside fitness specialist Chris Powell, was the guiding force behind steering participants toward their yearlong goal of safely losing up to half their body weight. ABC will air 13 twohour episodes of the hit show locally, 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesdays on Channel 7. Charita, who is featured with Oklahoma resident Ty in the first episode, and Wyatt attended the red-carpet premiere along with more than 200 community and Anschutz medical campus leaders and CEO/executive producer JD Roth. During the run of the show, Wyatt is writing a blog at www.thedenverchannel. com/entertainment/extreme-weight-lossmedical-director-holly-wyatt-blogsabout-charita-ty-weight-loss-journey.

Thrillist (www.thrillist.com), a national website that has an opinion on all things food and drink-related in the U.S., has bestowed “bests” to three Denver eateries. Included in The 21 Best Southern Restaurants Outside of the South is Tom’s Home Cookin’, 800 E. 26th Ave., a Denver favorite for Southern fare. Thrillist recommends the fried catfish paired with green beans and fried okra. “The name here says it all — this is home cooking, and even if you’ve never met Tom, you’ll be begging to be adopted so you can inhale this instead of whatever you’re hacking at your house.” Sweet Action Ice Cream, 52 Broadway, was included in Thrillist’s 21 Best Ice Cream Shops in America. Here’s the scoop: “What you’re ordering: Pocky and Red Bean if you’re feeling interesting, Milk Chocolate if you’re feeling boring. Our man in Denver tried every single one of the flavors at Sweet Action, and, although he didn’t care much for vegan Maple Walnut or Vanilla Rose, he can vouch for nearly every other flavor as being worth at least several samples. But as sexy as Salted Malt Butterscotch and Cinnamon Roll sound, the champion of the taste was a simple milk chocolate described as `a scoop of goodness ...’” If you prefer drinking your calories instead of eating them, check out Williams & Graham, 3160 Tejon St., the Denver speakeasy that made Thrillist’s The 33 Best Cocktail Bars in America. “A cocktail-themed bookstore is the front for this barely-lit speakeasy coowned by a guy named the 2014 Bartender of the Year by the Nightclub and

Mentally ill add to jail populations State facilities offer few hospital beds By Kristin Jones

Rocky Mountain PBS I-News In unit 4C of the Pueblo County jail, any human presence draws inmates to the narrow windows of their solitary cells. They bark requests and complaints, or just grin and make small talk. One man’s ceiling is leaking; another wants to know how many more days he has left in segregation. “Ma’am, do you work here?” asks a tall African-American man with a steady, serious gaze, who wants to know when his glasses will be delivered. “I’m the warden, Darlene Alcala,” she replies to the man needing glasses. Alcala is small and elegant in black, and sports a friendly smile at odds with the cinderblock bleakness of the jail. “You can call me chief.” Though they live on opposite sides of the jail’s heavy doors, these two have come to see eye-to-eye on a crucial point: Inmates like him don’t belong here. The man has been in 23-hour-a-day lockdown for a year and a half. Like most of his fellow residents in what’s known as administrative segregation, he is mentally ill. Brief interactions with the staff are nearly the only contact he has with the world outside his cramped cell. As a shortage of funding has depleted options for those in need of treatment for mental illnesses, there’s still one place that can’t say no: jail. Inpatient psychiatric beds have dwindled to 1,093 for the state’s entire population, according to state human services data, a decrease of 20 percent from five years ago. People with mental illnesses are more than five times as likely to wind up in jail or prison. “Years ago we deinstitutionalized mental-health treatment,” says Boulder County

Sheriff Joe Pelle. “People felt it was shameful that we had people in custody or locked up in mental health facilities. Now, instead, we lock them up in jail.” The burden on jails is growing. A 1992 jail survey found that 11 percent of Colorado inmates had a serious mental illness, according to research by Public Citizen’s Health Research Group and National Alliance for the Mentally Ill. This year, 10 county jails surveyed by I-News reported that, on average in 2013, 18 percent of their inmates were mentally ill. Sheriffs say the trend is noticeable from year to year. At the Douglas County jail, for example, the number of mentally ill inmates has grown 10 percent in the past three years, even as the general daily population has dropped 28 percent. Once they’re in, inmates with behavioral health problems have more trouble getting out. The seven metro Denver counties in 2008 found that mentally ill inmates stayed an average of five times longer than other inmates. In Pueblo, an inmate detained for a misdemeanor stays an average of 28 days; mentally ill inmates jailed for similar offenses stay between 171 and 180 days. “Jails and prisons have become the warehouses for people who aren’t getting treated elsewhere,” says Attila Denes, a captain at the Douglas County jail. “It’s among the most expensive and least humane” ways to provide care. Solitary confinement is routine. Even as Colorado’s new state prison chief, Rick Raemisch, has pledged to remove mentally ill prisoners from isolation because of concerns that it is counterproductive and inhumane, jailers say they still use 23-hour lockdown to keep staff and other inmates safe. Denes, a student of history, sees patterns in American society’s treatment of people with mental illnesses. As early as the 1650s, the plight of so-called “lunatics” in prisons attracted a call to the colonial legislature to find alternative housing.

Erin Hedden writes a letter in her cell block at Pueblo County, Colo., jail on April 4. Hedden said she has bipolar disorder and used crystal methamphetamine to self-medicate after she lost her insurance and couldn’t afford medication to treat her illness. She’s serving a four-year jail sentence after she crashed her car while driving on drugs, killing a 69-year-old woman. Photos by Rocky Mountain PBS I-News “We’ve gone full circle,” says Denes. “We’re back today to where we were in the 1650s.”

Jail officers get training

The confinement of thousands of mentally ill Coloradans in jails and prisons can make a striking contrast with the sensibilities of the people whose job it is to confine them. Alcala first took a job as a receptionist at the Pueblo jail 30 years ago to get health insurance for her newborn son. Her ambition to become a deputy was stoked by a supervisor who told her she was hired “to look pretty and answer the phone.” It was in the 1990s that she became aware of the prevalence of mental illness in the jail; There was a woman who smeared feces on the wall, and an inmate who licked the floor. Alcala recalls that the detention officers had no real tools for handling what they simply saw as strange behavior. Alcala and other staff have worked to acquire the skills to communicate with inmates in the throes of a crisis. She enrolled in crisis intervention training eight years ago, says Alcala, adding: “I wish I’d had it 15 years earlier.” Sheriffs are increasingly enlisting mental health professionals to improve care for the mentally ill in jail, by training detention officers to communicate through a crisis and by offering therapy to inmates. John Parsons, who was released from the Pueblo jail in March, says he got help from a jail-based program called Moral Reconation Therapy — a type of cognitive behavioral therapy — to handle his depression, anxiety and alcoholism. “MRT told me how to handle the stresses and pressures of life in the way normal people do,” Parsons said in April. Jagruti Shah runs the state’s offender mental health programs, overseeing a budget of about $2.7 million to help con-

nect inmates with treatment for substance abuse and co-occurring mental health disorders. The programs run in 33 counties, reaching about 90 percent of the state’s jail population. Shah says the programs have had some success in treating inmates while they’re jailed. But the short-term stay of most inmates means they walk out with only a few days’ worth of medication. Outside, care can be hard to come by — both before and after incarceration. “Quite often people don’t have the opportunity to engage in these treatment programs until they hit the front door of the jails,” says Denes. Pueblo inmate Erin Hedden says she tried. After symptoms of bipolar disorder emerged when she was 28 years old, Hedden was prescribed a laundry list of drugs. Each one failed until she found a combination that worked: Prozac and Zyprexa. But when she left a job as a nursing assistant to work on her mother’s ranch, Hedden lost her insurance. At $1,000 a month, the medication was out of reach. It took three months for the symptoms of mania to resurface, and Hedden says she sought refuge in crystal methamphetamine. Three years later, Hedden is in jail on a four-year sentence for drugged driving. She was behind the wheel in a crash that killed Linda Sue Sublett, a 69-year-old woman she never met. The county now pays for her Prozac and Zyprexa.

tal Health Institute at Pueblo, one of only two state psychiatric hospitals. Beds at the state hospitals have disappeared steadily even as Colorado’s population has boomed, the victim of federal and state budget cuts and a change in philosophy that emphasized removing people from institutions. In 1980, there were 1,103 public psychiatric beds in Colorado; in 2014, there are 553, many of them earmarked for those charged with or convicted of crimes. Pueblo Sheriff Kirk Taylor says the state psychiatric hospital sends its patients to the jail when they lash out or act violently, including people who have previously been found not guilty by reason of insanity. At the same time, Taylor and other county jail officials complain that the state hospitals frequently turn away inmates who have been put on emergency mentalhealth holds for posing a danger to themselves or others. “These people don’t need to be in jail,” says Taylor. “They need to be in a therapeutic community.” Bill May, who heads the state hospital in Pueblo, believes it’s appropriate for some of the hospital’s patients to be arrested and sent to jail if they commit a crime while stable in treatment. Meanwhile, state psychiatric hospitals can’t receive people on mental-health holds unless they’ve been treated and cleared first for any physical problems, says Dr. Patrick Fox, a Colorado Department of Human Services official who oversees the hospitals. He suggests taking inmates to the emergency room. At issue, in part, is the question of who bears the high costs of housing mentally ill inmates. Psychotropic medications, additional security and lengthier stays all add to the costs. A seven-county study in the metro Denver area found the cost of accommodating seriously mentally ill inmates to be around $44.7 million a year in 2010, up from $36.5 million in 2006. Costs

haven’t declined since then, and are likely to have increased, says Regina Huerter, the director of Denver’s Crime Prevention and Control Commission. The influx of ill inmates has contributed to overcrowding in Boulder, say jail officials there. Boulder is reconfiguring its cells to expand the special management unit where mentally ill inmates are housed. But that means taking space from other areas, says Division Chief Bruce Haas. In Denver, the construction of a new jail in 2010 took into account the extra medical resources and supervision demanded by an increasingly ill population, says Sheriff Gary Wilson. Like the homeless, mentally ill inmates often have trouble meeting judges’ standards for bail, which take into account qualifications such as stable housing, employment and family support, says state public defender Douglas Wilson. This is despite the fact that their crimes may be low-level offenses. “The reality is, most of the time what we’re talking about is trespasses, the guy who roller-skated into somebody’s garage because he thought it was a roller rink, public urination,” says Wilson. Denver recently found that the 99 people most frequently jailed for low-level offenses had a high rate of mental illness — around 35 percent. They were also frequently homeless and addicted to alcohol or drugs, adding to the complexity of treating them. Some get into more trouble behind bars, committing crimes that lengthen their stays, says Sheriff David Walcher in Arapahoe County. “They commit crimes on the inside; there are assaults on staff. They tend to get more charges when they’re in jail,” says Walcher. “They’re a more challenging population overall.”

Harsh world

From their stark walls to their locked doors to their narrow, light-deprived spaces, jails are meant to confine criminals, not promote recovery. “There’s nothing soft about what we do,” says Alcala. “We’re built for offenders.”

Hedden has sharp memories of her episodes in 23-hour lockdown. The 35-yearold inmate, who is being treated for social anxiety and depression along with bipolar disorder, says her last 12-day stay there led her to a breakdown. “All day long it’s a cacophony of voices, of screams, of shouting,” says Hedden. “There is no human interaction except for what’s between you and the guard, and who you can yell at next door through the wall. The loneliness is overwhelming. I get a sense of intense anxiety like I just want to claw at the door. I just want to get out. I would do anything to get out. I beg to get out.” A growing understanding of what it means to isolate people who have mental illnesses is leading to changes in the state prison system. When former prisoner Evan Ebel shot dead prison chief Tom Clements last year, the incident raised questions about Ebel’s time in solitary confinement and his direct release into the community. Clements’

replacement, Raemisch, has criticized the overuse of solitary confinement nationwide, and has pledged to stop placing mentally ill inmates in administrative segregation. And the state legislature recently passed a bill — now pending Gov. John Hickenlooper’s signature — banning longterm solitary confinement for seriously mentally ill prisoners. But 23-hour lockdown is still widely used as a tool to control mentally ill inmates in jails. Jailers in Douglas County, Arapahoe County, Boulder, Pueblo and elsewhere say they try to minimize the use of it, but none said they were considering doing away with it. “Most jails are pretty close to full if not overflowing,” says Denes, in Douglas County. “Sometimes when you have people classified as dangerous offenders and you have people packed into a housing unit, the reason that you use (23-hour lockdown) is to prevent victimization of inmates from other inmates.”

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Holding back on a decision might be difficult, considering how long you’ve waited for this opportunity. But until you’re able to resolve all doubts, it could be the wiser course to take. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) You still need to move carefully where financial matters are concerned. Better for the Lion to move slowly than pounce on a “promising” prospect that doesn’t keep its promises. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) A rejection of an idea you believe in can be upsetting. But don’t let it discourage you. Get yourself back on track and use what you’ve learned from the experience to try again. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) The early part of the week could find you looking to balance your priorities between your family obligations and your career responsibilities. Pressures begin to ease by week’s end. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to nov 21)An associate’s problem could cause unavoidable delays in moving ahead with your joint venture. If so, use the time to look into another project you had previously set aside. SAGITTARIUS (nov 22 to Dec 21) Although a financial problem could be very close to being resolved in your favor, it’s still a good idea to avoid unnecessary spending for at least a little while longer. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Support for some unwelcome workplace decisions begins to show up, and continues to build, so that by week’s end, the gregarious Goat is as popular as ever. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Congratulations. Deciding to attend a social function you might have earlier tried to avoid could turn out to be one of the best decisions you’ve made in a long time. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Getting into a new situation could prove to be a more difficult experience than you expected.

Jeffco springs sports MVPs CCM selected the best of the best Jeffco has to offer this season By Daniel Williams

dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com Everyone measures value differently. When looking for an MVP (Most Valuable Player) does one define it by who scored the most points or goals for their team, or who made the most impact on a winning team? But what if the most talented player played on a losing team? Or what if a player’s defense was crucially important to their team winning games, something unmeasured by stats? It is not easy to select the best from a group of the best, but the spring prep season is over and now is time to reflect on some of the most spectacular seasons that played out all over Jeffco this year. Now that the season is in the record books we can now award who we think were the most valuable players on Jeffco this season. Baseball MVP — Green Mountain senior catcher Justin Akiyama Akiyama not only had a fantastic stat line that consisted of having a .396 batting average, 36 hits (team leader), 21 RBI and eight doubles, but his legendary bases-loaded full-count at bat that in the bottom of the seventh inning against Durango in the state playoffs that eventually led to a walk-off game-winning hit will be remembered forever. Baseball MVP Runner-up — Wheat Ridge senior Nick Ricigliano Ricigliano had a monster stat line that featured a .456 batting average, 26 hits, 27 RBI, 27 runs scored and six home runs. Ricigliano also went 2-0 with a 4.20 ERA for the Farmers. Girls’ Soccer MVP — Ralston Valley sophomore Alyssa Kaiser While there were plenty of upperclassmen across Jeffco who had great seasons, none had one like Kaiser. Her 2.438 points per game is an incredible stat but her teamleading 17 assists in 16 games proved that she got her teammates involved in literally every single game she played this season. Kaiser’s middle name is unselfish. Runner-up soccer MVP — Green Mountain junior Jenn Brundson who helped fuel her team’s surprising run to the 4A state semifinals. Brundson had the Lady Rams peaking at just the right time behind a stat line that included 11 goals and 14 assists. Boys’ Lacrosse MVP — Wheat Ridge senior John Roach Few have ever been as dominant at what they do then Roach has been as a Farmer.

Green Mountain senior catcher Justin Akiyama was awarded as our CCM Jeffco Baseball MVP after his unbelievable regular season and performance in the state tournament. In addition, his Rams’ team was awarded as our CCM Most Valuable Spring Team after winning the 4A state baseball title. Photo by Dan Williams After winning a state title in the previous season Roach returned to produce the most prolific offensive season in Colorado high school lacrosse history. Roach’s 56 goals and 41 assists this season translated to the senior producing over five points per game for his Farmers. Roach is a Jeffco all-timer. Runner-up Lacrosse MVP — Lakewood senior Adam Zimmerman Zimmerman was quietly one of the state’s best players all season and certainly 5A Jeffco’s most talented player. He tortured defenders with 43 goals and 33 assists this year. Girls’ Lacrosse MVP — Golden junior Olivia Hayden. Hayden didn’t play for the best team in the state but she might have been the state’s best player. The Lady Demons’ leader scored an unbelievable 63 goals and 36 assists in 15 games (translating to 6.6 points per game worth of production). Co-runners-up Girls’ Lacrosse — Ralston Valley sophomore’s Marin Felsoci and Olivia Sandoval They scored a collective 89 goals this season, one of the best scoring duos in the state. Boys’ Swimming MVP — Lakewood ju-

nior Aaron Sett Sett set a new Jeffco record in the 500 freestyle (4:39.77) and was Jeffco champ in that event plus the 200 freestyle. Co-runner-up Boys’ Swimming —D’Evelyn senior Jake Sbarbaro and junior Daniel Graber Both helped the Jaguars swim to a Jeffco League Championship plus a third place overall finish at the state tournament. Boys’ Track & Field MVP — Bear Creek senior Olabisi Johnson Johnson was not only Jeffco’s best in both the 110 and 100 meter hurdles but he was crowned state champion in the 110 meter hurdles with his time of 14.34. Girls’ Track & Field MVP — Golden senior Payton Miller. Miller has long been known as Golden’s fastest lady and she also finished second in the state tournament in all three of the 100-meter, 200-meter and 400-meter dashes. Girls’ Tennis MVP — Wheat Ridge No. 1 singles Erika Land Land worked her way up to No. 1 singles and she finished her senior season with an impressive 9-2 record, despite being in a team that finished under .500. Runner-up Girls’ Tennis — D’Evelyn No.

4 doubles team of senior Julia Oblack and freshman Maggie Hime The two were an unlikely but awesome pairing who dominated Jeffco this season. They also beat Valor Christian’s Emilie Benedict Jackie Pettet 7-6, 6-4 to claim third place at the state tournament. Most Valuable Spring Team — 4A state baseball champion Green Mountain baseball. The Rams (20-7, 9-5 in 4A Jeffco) made a historic run through districts and the 4A state baseball tournament capping it off with a 10-2 victory over Niwot in the state title game. Green Mountain survived rival Wheat Ridge, Durango, Longmont and Niwot to earn a state championship, needing a dramatic comeback to beat Durango in walkoff fashion. Runner-up Team — 5A state runnerup Ralston Valley girls’ soccer It was truly a Cinderella story that nearly ended with a state championship. The No. 10 seeded Mustangs (12-4, 6-2 in 5A Jeffco) went on a incredible run, beating Boulder, Cherry Creek, Rock Canyon and Pine Creek before falling to Columbine 3-1 in the state title game.

Colorado preps turning collegiate at record rate State is producing future college talent By Daniel Williams

dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com While Colorado may not produce Division I football talent like Texas or California it certainly does produce plenty of future collegiate athletes. And at record numbers this year. According to CHSAA, a total of 905 Colorado prep athletes have signed to play their sport in college. Of those, 343 have signed with Division I programs, with baseball

producing 45 D-I players. While CHSAA only started tracking recruiting statistics since 2002, the next closest total for producing D-I baseball players was 2008 when the state produced 28 top level players. Boys’ basketball produced 12 Division I players and girls’ basketball produced 18, both the most since stats were tracked in 2002. Colorado prep football will be sending 31 players to D-I FBS schools, the most since 2008 when 33 players went D-I. Another 16 will head to D-I FCS schools. Additionally, these stats provided by CHSAA only include athletes who are arriving on campus as signed scholarship

athletes. There are many more who will walk-on and have the opportunity to make collegiate rosters.

Girls’ prep golf

D’Evelyn junior golfer Emilee Strausburg was selected as a part of the 2014 AllColorado girls golf team. Strausburg finished third overall at the state tournament finishing (+18) after shooting rounds of 82 and 80.

dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com DENVER - The Colorado prep baseball season isn’t over just yet. The state’s best players will have at least one more at-bat and one more chance to make a play as the rosters have been set for the Colorado Rockies annual Futures Game Sunday at Coors Field. The format for the game, as well as its selection process, have changed over the years, but basically the state’s best senior players will play against the state’s best underclassmen. That means teammates will be playing against each other, as well as rivals who will now become teammates. A few more players than in past years were selected to the team partially because several of the selected players won’t be able to participate in the game. The Futures Game will start roughly 30 minutes after the end of the Rockies-Dodgers game which starts at 2:10 p.m. In addition, the Rockies will honor all of the Futures Game team members and their families by bringing them onto the field before the start of the Rockies-Dodgers game. A complete list of the Futures Game rosters: Senior team Austin Anderson, Columbine, SS Brock Burke, Evergreen, P Nick Chamberlain, Chatfield, IF Jeff Clarke, Fairview, 1B/3B Noah Draper, Mountain Range, P Chase Dunker, Sedgwick County, P Keenan Eaton, Chaparral, OF Grant Farrell, Cherry Creek, OF Cameron Frazier, Fairview, OF Max George, Regis Jesuit, 2B Hayden Gerlach, Valor Christian, 3B/1B Lucas Gilbreath, Legacy, P Devlin Granberg, Holy Family, OF/1B Jordan Holloway, Ralston Valley, P A.J.

A unique message “Postcards from Cookie” by Caroline Clarke 2014, Harper $24.99 / $31.00 Canada 312 pages Among the usual fliers, bills, and donation requests in the mail last week, there was something you haven’t seen in ages: someone sent you a greeting card. It wasn’t marking any special occasion. No, it was sent as a pick-me-up from a friend, a nice surprise at a time when mail usually has an “e” in front of it. But, as you’ll see in the new memoir “Postcards from Cookie” by Caroline Clarke, some snail mail can make your heart zoom. She was only looking for medical records. As an adoptee, Caroline Clarke knew she had the right to learn at least that about her birth mother, but health data was only part of the unhidden information in the sealed records. There were lots of clues in what Clarke was told on that chilly afternoon; enough to help her figure out who her biological mother might be. The shocker was that Clarke had known her birth mother’s family for years. From the time she was almost 8 years old and learned that she was adopted, Clarke told everyone that she wasn’t interested in finding her birth mother. Secretly, though, she dreamed of making the woman proud, and fantasized about accidental, happily-ever-after meetings. She loved the parents who raised her – adored them, in fact – but “all adoptees are curious about their beginnings,” and Clarke was no exception. Her Daddy was shaken by the news. Her Mommy said to contact the woman. Clarke’s husband was excited for her, but she sat on the information until she couldn’t stand it any longer. So she mustered up the courage and called Carole “Cookie” Lane. Cookie was the eldest (adopted) daughter of Nat “King” Cole and, while away at

college, had become pregnant. It was 1964 and that sort of thing was scandalous – especially since the father was a white Jewish boy. Maria, Cookie’s adoptive mother, sent her away to a home for pregnant girls. Cookie was twenty years old. As Cookie and Clarke excitedly began to erase the years they’d missed, and as they shared “synchronicities” through phone calls and huge boxes of mail, they also got “on each other’s nerves.” Clarke craved Cookie, but they obviously irritated one another – enough to make Clarke wonder whether their experience was “going to have that fairy-tale ending after all.” Though adoption-reunion stories are becoming commonplace due to social media, author Caroline Clarke’s is unusual in that there were some amazing coincidences that led her to Cookie, before and after. Obviously, Clarke is awe-stricken about those and yes, I was pretty impressed, too. And yet, “Postcards from Cookie” has a bit of a Peeping-Tom element: this is a very personal story of adoption and love. While I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, it’s easy to feel uncomfortable watching two vastly different personalities dance around one another, trying to get along. So, ultimately, do they? I’m not telling. You’re going to want to read this book. No, seriously — you’re going to want to read this book because “Postcards from Cookie” will send you away satisfied.
