By Peter Jones John Brackney, the longtime community leader who steered the South Metro Denver Chamber for a decade, has resigned. The nonprofit organization’s president and CEO made his announcement March 24 in an email to members of the largest chamber of commerce in the south metro area. “It has been an awesome ride, one I have appreciated and cherished every day,” Brackney, 47, wrote. “Admittedly imperfect but always driven, I hope I have made some small contribution to the success in your business and your life. My greater hope is that we all recommit to building an increasingly vibrant business community and quality of life.” Although Brackney’s email made note of “new steps” the chamber must take, he offered no specific personal reason for his
Admittedly imperfect but always driven, I hope I have made some small contribution to the success in your business and your life.
- John Brackney, outgoing president of South Metro Denver Chamber, in a letter to members departure, nor did he indicate any particular plans for the future. “I hope our paths cross frequently as I remain at your service, only in a different capacity,” the outgoing CEO wrote in closing. At press time, Brackney had not returned a request for comment. The lifelong resident of present-day Centennial entered public life as a two-term Arapahoe County commissioner elected as a Republican in 1996. He earned
his law degree at the University of Denver. Brackney was credited as a cofounder of the City of Centennial, which was incorporated by public vote in 2001. He was later elected to the Centennial Charter Commission, which drafted the city’s home-rule charter. Brackney’s CEO position had changed last year when the chamber’s board of directors reconfigured the management structure by promoting Jeff Holwell to chief operating officer. When Holwell assumed most of Brackney’s internal staff-management responsibilities, Brackney began focusing more on external communications and leading the chamber’s political front. The board of directors has begun the process of hiring a new CEO, according to a press releases issued by the chamber. “I personally wish the very best to John Brackney in his future endeavors,” Chair Herm Brocksmith said in a statement. “John has brought great passion and

Arapahoe High School celebrates namesake Continued from Page 1
By Tom Barry A friendship was renewed last week. Fifty years ago, Arapahoe High School opened its doors on land once inhabited by the Arapaho Nation – now part of the city of Centennial. Years later, Ron Booth, the recently retired principal, initiated contact with the Arapaho people. In 1992, they together forged a blueprint for a longstanding cultural and educational friendship. “By working together within the boundaries of respect to our cultures, we have set precedence in our communities, providing a positive solution for our future in the midst of mascot controversy,” a printed program said. On March 20, the first full day of spring, the Arapaho tribe members drove more than 400 miles in six hours of wind, rain and snow to reach their destination at Arapahoe High. The next morning, students, staff, administrators and guests filed into Sitting Eagle Gymnasium for a “Ceremony to Renew Our Relationship” with more than 2,000 people filling the wooden bleachers. At center court, six tribal members began to loudly beat the ceremonial drum as the Arapaho Legion Post 84 Color Guard entered the gym wearing their colorful tribal outfits. Elder Leonard Moss, attired in his full Arapaho Nation regalia, provided the invocation, while Elder Darrell Lone Bear served as master of ceremonies. Tribal Elders Nelson White and Jerry Redmond were also involved. Mark Soldier Wolf, 86, the special original tribal representative, also actively participated in the noteworthy event that occurs every two years. Cassie Soldier Wolf, his daughter, coordinated the occasion. LPS Board members Jack Reutzel, Lucie Stanish, Kelly Perez and Carrie Warren-Gully and Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon joined Arapahoe Principal Natalie Pramenko on stage. Dan Maas, the CIO, and Diane Leiker, director of communications, were also there, along with other top administrators. Arapaho tribal members, young and old, performed several rituals. Soldier Wolf addressed the students, enlightening them with thoughts, wisdom and humor. He reflected upon his first meeting with the school and said he missed seeing his friend Booth, whom he had gotten to know over the years. Soldier Wolf’s granddaughter Buffalo Soldier Wolf Vila participated in the cultural performances. She is the only member of the Arapaho tribe to have graduated from AHS.
so fortunate to have the special and unique relationship with them. We learn from them and help our students understand and appreciate the differences in our very diverse cultures. Arapahoe students and staff have tremendous respect for the Arapaho.” Arapaho members then went into the stands and selected someone to do a ceremonial Round Dance encompassing the entire gym floor. After the first stroll, the tribe then encouraged all of the guests to join in the ceremony. More than 2,000 people poured onto the gym floor as tribal members and guests encircled all of the participants. Pramenko spoke briefly and then representatives of the AHS student council presented the Arapaho people four substantial gift baskets. A special prayer was offered in the Arapaho native language at the conclusion of the colorful and memorable ceremony.

The Arapaho people presented Pramenko a special ceremonial blanket, calling her a friend of the Nation. Several of the women then draped the blanket around Pramenko’s shoulders and proceeded to walk in a circle around the gym floor. Cassie Soldier Wolf, Mark’s daughter, then invited Amanda Clark, Pramenko’s assistant, the honor of being included in the dance. “I was completely surprised by the honor and am deeply grateful,” Pramenko said. “The Arapaho are very special people and real friends to our high school.

Southglenn Library’s studio offers opportunities for everything from converting old LPs onto digital files to recording one’s new music on CD.
Southglenn Library debuts recording studio It’s the district’s second facility – but won’t be the last By Peter Jones A little more than a year after opening its first recording studio at Smoky Hill Library, Arapahoe Library District is making records – or at least setting them –when it comes to offering newer media for audio and video recording. Beginning next week, the district will officially open its second and much larger recording studio at Southglenn Library at The Streets at SouthGlenn development. The new studio is the latest example of how libraries are redefining themselves in the face of new technologies and patron expectations. “We’re trying to work in a role that will access technology that is out of reach for most people financially,” said Nicolle Davies, the district’s executive director. “This is a great example of how ALD is bridging that gap for people in the community. … No longer are libraries dusty warehouses of information, but rather transformative community centers where patrons can experience and use cutting-edge technology.” The Southglenn facility is the district’s second all-purpose studio, but it will not be the last in its system of eight libraries, Davies said. Like the district’s original stu-
dio at Centennial’s Smoky Hill, the Southglenn facility is equipped with a high-definition video camera, microphones and all the software needed to record and edit audio and video content. There is also 3D capability and a “green screen” for virtual studio backgrounds. While the relatively compact workspace at Smoky Hill has been able to service little more than three people working on the same project, the new Southglenn studio has three stations outside the actual soundproof room, each designed for an assortment of other high-tech production work – and just plain fun. After all, a virtual-reality rollercoaster may not do much for the production on your song or school project, but it can’t hurt. “What’s great about that is it’s got sensors that react to your movement. You look up, you’ll see the sky. A lot of people try to stand and immediately sit down,” explained Oli Sanidas, the district’s director of digital services. For those who find the mere mention of high technology dizzying, help is available through Arapahoe’s Book-a-Librarian program, by which librarygoers can pre-arrange help from a knowledgeable staff member. “Our goal is to expose people to the technology, whether they
know what they’re doing or not,” supervisor Kevin Maas said. Even the tech-savvy staff is green around the edges when it comes to some of the equipment, such as the studio’s digital DJ scratch pad. “We’re trying to figure that out,” Sanidas said. While the 3D printer and soundproof four-track recording studio may come in handy for school projects, a musician’s audition or vanity ventures of all stripes, the most popular feature is expected to be the station where patrons can restore and dub their old VHS tapes to digital files and DVDs. “We’re anticipating a lot of people wanting to use the VCR to digitize home movies. That is directly from patron request,” Sanidas said. Vinyl fans can also digitize their old albums, clean up old photos or scan their slides and photo negatives. Southglenn Library will formally introduce the new studio to the public with its Tour de Tech open house on Saturday, May 17, 1-4 p.m.
By Peter Jones In the wake of the Arapahoe High School shooting, the Littleton City Council has approved a request from the city’s police department to place a full-time school-resource officer in all three of Littleton’s middle schools. The city and Littleton Public Schools will share the cost of the two new positions, $260,000. Superintendent Scott Murphy said the move ties directly to the district’s commitment to continuous improvement in all areas. “This is another example of the close, ongoing relationship between LPS and the Littleton Police Department that has become a model in Colorado,” he said. “It’s one of the many ways in which we work together to keep our community safe.” Littleton City Manager Michael Penny said the move would significantly enhance the community’s ability to ensure the protection of students “We bring value to our citizens when we are able to partner on issues such as the safety of our
children,” he said. School-resource officers, stationed inside schools, act as liaisons between the schools and the police. They are trained to provide first response in the event of a school tragedy. The new officers will be selected through the police department’s internal competitive process and will be assigned this fall. Two new officers will subsequently be hired for the positions left vacant by the new assignments. LPD currently has officers assigned full time to both Heritage and Littleton High Schools. Although Arapahoe High School, where last year’s shooting took place, is part of Littleton Public Schools, it is in the City of Centennial. The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office supplies its school-resource officer. A third officer splits her time between the three middle schools in Littleton. “The school-resource officer position is important as it allows direct interaction between police officers and students, enhances the safety and security of the school, and provides a link between the schools and the police department,” the city said in a statement.

Holen and wife seek to understand low-income challenges
By Peter Jones Amid controversy over food stamps, Arapahoe County Commissioner Bill Holen decided to put his money – as limited by federal rules – where his mouth is. “There are a lot of misconceptions about the so-called food-stamp program,” the Aurora Democrat said. “We wanted to see what it was like to experience that.” In recent years, Arapahoe County has seen a substantial increase in its number of citizens qualifying for the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. In 2007, about 9,000 households in the county received food assistance. That number more than doubled to nearly 21,600 last year. To get a better grip on the experiences of their less-fortunate constituents, Holen and his wife, Aurora City Councilwoman Debi Hunter Holen, decided they would live on the equivalent of a SNAP allowance for one week. For a family of two, that meant $80 a week for food and $90 for certain nonfood purchases. For purposes of the experiment, the couple acted as if any other hypothetical income was being spent on housing, utilities and other necessary expenses. On Feb. 17, the Holens took their $80 in cash and a grocery list to King Soopers. “We realized our list had way too much food,” the county commissioner said. “So we kind of threw away the list. I started at the clearance basket.” That is where Holen found a couple boxes of day-old cereal, a crushed can of peas and other items marked at 50 to 60 percent off. The couple also pulled out a few coupons for free items and other discounts. What was usually a half-hour run through the grocery aisles had
Bill Holen become a 90-minute mix of a scavenger hunt and a jigsaw puzzle. The pieces included a chicken, a pork leg, some sausage, rice, potatoes, milk, bananas, apples, vegetables, butter and several other items all for less than the $80 limit. “Debi is a very good cook, so when we got home she began to plan and was able to prepare several wonderful meals,” Holen said. “One day, we roasted the chicken, and when we were done we threw it into a big pot with some vegetables to make some soup that lasted us pretty much

the rest of the week.” Lunches consisted of peanut-butter sandwiches and fruit. “We couldn’t have a glass of wine during the week or any desserts at all,” Holen said. The couple split the $90 nonfood allowance. The commissioner devoted his entire $45 allotment to gas for his daily commute from Aurora to the county building in Littleton. Debi had much the same experience when she drove her mother to several doctor’s appointments, virtually exhausting her weekly allowance. Commissioner Holen says the experience was challenging, but not impossible. “It left you hungry during the evening sometimes,” he said. “It woke us up to the fact that we could shop a little more carefully and stretch our food budget longer. You can literally cut your budget in half if you shop smartly.” Holen also cut his waistline by a considerable measure – losing 10 pounds in total. “I’m still watching my food intake,” he said. “For me personally, it was a good experience. It kind of woke me and Debi up about how lucky we are to have good sustainable jobs.” The experiment has also helped shape the commissioner’s publicpolicy views. He thinks requiring local SNAP recipients to take foodstamp-geared cooking classes would be an idea worth exploring. The Democratic official also laments this year’s U.S. Farm Bill, which cut SNAP benefits by $8 billion over the next decade. “You’re not cheating the government by living on $80 a week,” Holen said. “If [Congress] were to do something like Debi and I did, it would certainly open their eyes to the struggles that poorer and lowincome families face.”
Arapahoe County Sheriff Walcher announces promotions Sheriff’s Office promotes first woman captain
By Tom Barry New Arapahoe County Sheriff Dave Walcher announced promotions of four command-staff members – including the county’s first woman captain. “I had several options. I could have maybe looked externally, but felt we had the absolute internal talent within our organization and I’m thrilled about these promotions we just made,” Walcher said. The common thread of the four appointments is that each new command officer graduated from Metropolitan State College of Denver and attended the Daniels College of Business’s Public Safety Leadership Program at the University of Denver. The new appointments were prompted by the appointment of Walcher, who took office Jan. 31
when Sheriff Grayson Robinson retired in advance of the end of his final term. The announcement prompted the county’s Board of Commissioners to appoint Walcher, the former undersheriff, who had already been an announced candidate, to serve a full term. Two weeks ago, Louie Perea was appointed undersheriff to succeed Walcher. Perea had been a bureau chief of Administrative Services whose duties included running the county jail. Perea had been with the sheriff’s office since 1986. He has a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice. He has also attended programs at Northwestern University of Police Staff and the FBI National Academy. This week, it was announced that Glenn Thompson has been tapped as chief of the Public Safety Bureau, where he will be responsible for the daily operations of the patrol and investigation sections. He was hired by the sheriff’s office in 1988 and is cur-
rently attending the FBI National Academy. Christopher George has been appointed captain of the Public Safety Bureau, where he will be responsible for day-to-day operations of patrol services. George also attended the Northwestern University School of Police Staff and Command and the Daniels College of Business Public Safety Leadership Walcher promoted Laurie Halaba-Riedmuller, as Arapahoe County’s first woman captain. “I look to her to be one of the future leaders of the organization. She certainly has very good leadership skills now and we will continue to develop those skills,” Walcher said. “Hopefully, she has more input and more influence with our organization as the years go by.” Halaba-Riedmuller will head the Detention and Administrative Services Bureau. She earned her master’s in organizational leadership from Colorado State University.

Future of United States is not Final Four KINDLING
By Robert Sweeney
Looks like the lost airplane may be found in the South China Sea. I’m growing very weary of the ongoing news coverage of this lost airplane. Airport security is massive but not perfect, it will never be totally free of sabotage by those who wish to promote terrorism around the planet, and there are plenty of those
folks still around. Someone commented to me last week that the terrorists wanted to capture the airplane as a potential weapon, could be? Another person told me that Putin had taken Crimea to pay for the $50 billion spent on the Olympics, could be? There are many opinions on geopolitical subjects. It was interesting to see Gov. Romney on Face The Nation Sunday morning. I think we would have a different world situation if he had been elected president. It is what it is. My view is we need to quit being the world’s caretaker and let Europe deal with Russia and many of their European challenges, such as massive Muslim immigration from the Middle East where there are no jobs and opportunities. Those left behind are waging civil wars to attempt to
expand their religious beliefs and to replace their governments. It is hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys. That is equally true in Afghanistan and Iraq. The first lady is touring China and while we can use the public relations, the bill for the trip will give the GOP something major to rail about. It would seem we should go back to the Monroe Doctrine of supporting Mexico and Latin America and concentrating more on our own backyard, including our Canadian friends to the north. Russia is going to do whatever they wish and no military action will be taken to stop whatever they wish to do. There is such a weak response over Crimea that Putin may decide to take back the Ukraine, which I think is highly unlikely. Locally, political parties are hav-
ing their assemblies and nominating candidates for the November election. A Republic depends upon electing representatives to govern us through a democratic process of letting the people decide on leadership. As American citizens, it is our duty to be registered and to be involved in the selection process. It is also important to support those who wish to lead and take the time from their personal lives and families to represent the people. Support can be done by volunteering and by sending contributions to candidates who share your political philosophies. The United States’ future doesn’t depend upon the results of the Final Four, but upon the leadership in our state and nation’s Capitol. We need to get our priorities in order.
‘Don’t be agnostic – be something’ REMARKS
By Mort Marks
“Don’t be agnostic be something,” wrote Robert Frost, and many political activists have acted on those words. In fact, they stopped being agnostics both morally and politically and have actually brought their pro and con religious beliefs into the political world. Most Americans were not prepared for the various conflicts that then followed over specific issues – such as abortion, school prayer and the placing of the Ten Commandments in public schools and buildings – or over the larger question of

King Soopers is in the process of demolishing its old store on the southwest corner of Littleton Boulevard and South Broadway. The store and fuel station were closed earlier this year at the Littleton Square strip mall. All that stands now is the front east wall to the structure. An electronic sign along South Broadway flashes, “Retailers are OPEN,” in expansive red letters. The sign then notes the individual merchants.

Debate continues on I-25 corridor plan in Greenwood Village By Jan Wondra The I-25 corridor is a major source of economic vitality for the entire south metro area and businesses are known to seek a Greenwood Village business address. With that background, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council’s review of the corridor planning area objectives include heightened interest around the build-out of the sub area known as The Village Center Project. The Village Center includes the light rail station area west of I-25 and the land to the east of I-25 next to the RTD station and the vacant land north of Caley and west of Yosemite. Debate focused on planning-vision wording: whether the city’s bias to-
ward single-family homes was maintained and whether mixeduse development (which includes street-level retail, and higher floor offices topped with residential units) meant the city was encouraging rental units, or whether it meant only owner-occupied residences. The Village Center is intended as a gathering place, where people come to shop, eat and linger. “We want to make sure there is a balance between what is required of a business to locate here and making sure that they are economically viable,” said Aaron Heumann, Greenwood Village Transportation/Land Use planner. “This is the middle of the road, of our discussions, not the end of the road.” Mayor Pro Tem Gary Kramer
Letters to the Editor Russia will not return Crimea
I agree that “...it’s really none of our business.” The irony of it all is that it will only be 238 years on July 4 that the United States is celebrating its Independence from Great Britain. If Crimea wants independence from the Ukraine and to return to Russia, it IS their right. The U.S. and the international community is biting off more than they can chew. Judith Underwood Denver
Newton was inaccurate
Charles Newton said many things in his letter published March 13 that were inaccurate. Oppressed Egyptians first threw the established government out of office. Egyptians then elected a new government that included a majority from the Muslim Brotherhood. The Egyptian military then threw the elected government out of office and established a new government. That new government than said the Muslim Brotherhood was a terrorist
organization. Obama was only supporting the government that was freely elected and the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt was not called a terrorist organization at that time. When Syria used chemical weapons to kill about 1,000 people, Obama began discussions with other nations to respond to that use with military attacks against Syria. During those discussions, John Kerry suggested that Syria could avoid such an attack it they agreed to destroy all their chemical weapons. Syria, with the encouragement of Russia, agreed to the destruction of all their chemical weapons. All of Syria’s chemical weapons making facilities have already been destroyed and some of their chemical weapons have been removed from Syria. There have been no continued use of chemical weapons by Syria and all their remaining chemical weapons will be removed from Syria by the end of June. When Russia sent troops into one part of Ukraine, Obama began direct discussions with Russia to have those troops removed. Obama also began discussions with other na-
said, “I’m reminded of what Buzz Koebel called activation. We have to activate an area with people who live there. I work downtown, and believe me, there is a difference between a retail and office area where people leave at night, and where they live. I don’t see that this plan violates our emphasis on single-family homes. Some projects are special.” “I would like to be able to consider high quality projects,” said Councilwoman Leslie Schulter. “We need to be careful not to legislate and box ourselves in with words, or set hard and fast limits on the type of residential implied by vertical mixed use. The reality is that mixed use goes from the ground up and I want us to be open to quality projects.”
tions to organize economic sanctions against Russia if the troops were not removed. A military attack against Russia is not considered an option by any nation. John Kerry is again participating in the discussions. Newton also chose to repeat accusations against Kerry that were made in a book written specifically to smear Kerry when he was running for President in 2004. Those accusations have been discredited and nearly all of those who served with Kerry have stated that those accusations were false. John Kerry volunteered for military service during the Vietnam War and then volunteered for particularly hazardous assignments when in Vietnam. During his service there, Kerry was awarded several combat medals (including one Silver Star and three Purple Hearts). For Newton to call into question the awarding of those medals is to call into question all medals awarded to those who have served bravely in the defense of our country. Donald R.

Attorney promises ‘positive’ campaign in HD37 Ledbetter made contentious run for coroner in ‘10 By Peter Jones Attorney Jay Ledbetter learned a thing or two from his combative run for Arapahoe County coroner in 2010. “I got my teeth cut on that,” he said. “I learned how to campaign and how to debate. I felt a little bit ambushed in the whole thing, but people told me I did a credible job.” The unusually high-profile race for the functionary countylevel position was as colorful as it was contentious. By the time incumbent Democrat Michael Dobersen eked out his victory, there were accusations of corruption, countercharges of slander and a criminal investigation by the Colorado Attorney General’s Office. Flash forward 2014: With Dobersen retiring and his Republican heir apparent seeking the coroner’s job, Ledbetter hopes to fill an open seat representing Centennial’s District 37 in the state House of Representatives. “I’ve had my eye on this position for several years,” he said. By Ledbetter’s reasoning, his run for coroner was the perfect preparation for representing west Centennial and its surrounding neighborhoods. “Already 16,000 people in this district have voted for me once, and I won this district against that Democrat opponent by better than 2,000 votes,” he said. Ledbetter, 62, is one of four Republicans vying for the nomination to replace the term-limited Republican Rep. Spencer Swalm. The other hopefuls are first-time candidates Michael Fields and Carrie Penaloza, and Jack Tate, who lost his bid for Centennial City Council last year. The nominee will take on Democrat Marlo Alston. Because HD37 is an open seat, many believe the once Republican-safe
district is up for grabs. In 2006, the last election of comparable equity, first-timer Swalm narrowly defeated his Democratic challenger. Ledbetter, an Army and Air Force veteran, a onetime oilman and a former prosecutor, is known for his Jay Ledbetter bravado, whether he is discussing his political activism, business background, prosecutorial career or his vaguely described stint in a “Top Secret Special Operations unit” in Central America. The longtime GOP organizer, who has served as precinct leader, district captain and vice chairman of Arapahoe County Republicans, insists that the choice for District 37 lawmaker should be easy. “In 35 years of practicing law, I’ve been watching how these laws affect people’s lives,” he said. “I’ve also demonstrated leadership qualities, and if I can handle Special Operations over an entire continent, I’m probably going to be able to handle this job. I understand fracking because I’ve done it safely. And I don’t just have a slogan about being tough on crime. I’ve put away criminals to the point where on at
least two occasions there were hit contracts on my life.” That alleged experience has colored Ledbetter’s view on guns. The candidate would support repeal of 2013 legislation that banned ammunition magazines of more than 15 rounds and would take a close look at the expansion of background checks imposed on all private firearms transfers. “Under some of the new laws, people wouldn’t be able to protect themselves like I used to be able to do,” he said. “How many rounds of ammunition do you need in a magazine? I would say one more than the guy trying to kill me.” For Ledbetter, repeal of such laws would be more of an emphasis than any effort to enact new ones. “I think we’ve got way too many laws,” he said. “We just overburden ourselves to death with stuff. I don’t have a flaming torch for anything other than giving people better jobs, a better economy and more choices in life.” Ledbetter hails from Texas, where he worked in the oil industry. After his military service, he earned his law degree at Baylor University, a private Christian

college in Waco and worked as general counsel for Dallas-based televangelist Zola Levitt. In 1986, Ledbetter moved with his family to south metro Denver to practice law in Colorado. He is now semiretired, though he still does occasional legal work and is paid to manage a multimilliondollar financial trust. In 2010, Ledbetter waged his fiery challenge to Dobersen, who had recently switched his affiliation from Republican to Democrat. The combative crusade against the forensic pathologist raised eyebrows among some in Ledbetter’s own party who viewed the coroner post as apolitical and saw Dobersen as more qualified. The campaign reached its peak of controversy when Ledbetter accused Dobersen of manipulating evidence at a criminal trial – a charge that Ledbetter later disavowed. He subsequently apologized to Dobersen in an email and in the press. Dobersen eventually filed a complaint with the attorney general, accusing Ledbetter of violating a state law that prohibits knowingly or recklessly making false statements to affect an election. No charges were filed because Ledbetter had considered his single source credible and later withdrew the allegation. The candidate says it is a mistake that he will not make again. “You have to be very careful with your sources,” he said. “I also learned negative campaigns don’t really do any good so I’m focusing on positive.” That in mind, Ledbetter has included his salsa recipe on his campaign literature. “My opponents have described it as the most valuable part of my flier,” he said. “If people want to review the content and see why I might be a good choice, that’s great, but at least I gave them something they can take home and use.”
Littleton man guilty of mortgage fraud By Peter Jones A Littleton man was found guilty last week of multiple counts of wire fraud, mail fraud and money laundering related to a mortgage scam. Peter Vincent Capra, 56, was taken into custody pending a bond hearing. He could be sentenced to multiple decades in prison and millions of dollars in fines. According to the indictment, Capra’s crimes were committed while president of Golden Design Group, a homebuilder and seller. He was also the registered agent for Distinctive Mortgages, which used space within the same office building and provided mortgages to some of Golden’s customers. Between 2005 and 2008, Capra defrauded several lenders by allowing buyers to receive substantial amounts of lenders’ money at closing without the knowledge of the lenders. He also sold a large volume of homes to unqualified buyers. Capra netted more than $11 million as a result of his scheme. Loan applications were submitted through several mortgage brokers that failed to question the accuracy of false information on applications, including fraudulent representations of income and liabilities. At closings, funds ranging from $85,000 to more than $200,000 were distributed to the buyers in ways that prevented the lenders from finding out. Capra was found not guilty of one count of obstruction of justice.

Cherry Creek Schools Foundation Luncheon honors students, leaders By Glory Weisberg The Cherry Creek Schools Foundation Luncheon featured Columbine High School graduate, Nirvan Mullick, who made a YouTube film, Caine’s Arcade, about 9-year-old Caine Monroy. Monroy built a cardboard arcade in his dad’s auto parts store one summer, charging $1 per person, hoping to raise $25,000 for his college education. At first Monroy couldn’t get fellow kids to pay to play. Then Mullick came into the store to buy a door handle for his car and helped Monroy out. What followed is an amazing success story that not only funded the child’s future college education but went around the world as www. cainesarcade.com and eventually raised $240,000 for their upstart Imagination Foundation. To date, it’s gotten 8 million views and reached 41 countries. Among nonprofits now sharing the loot is the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Monroy’s Cardboard Challenge followed and the Cherry Creek Schools held a competition for district students to come up with their own arcade games made up
of cardboard and other recyclable parts. From bottle tops to golf balls, the Challenge made for a wonderful learning experience. The 400 competitors were judged in four categories, from K-2 to high school. The top contenders’ entries were on display at the foundation’s pre-lunch reception and guests got to vote on the spot for their favorite entry. One entry featured a functioning piano, another a football field, a maze game with golf balls that navigate twists and blind alleys, and a prosthetic arm, which featured plastic drinking cups. Winner in the K-2 grade level was Gavin Bradshaw; the 3rd5th grade category was won by Hannah Jenkins and Angie Cave; in the middle school level the winner was Joshua Hojinowski and Andy Mills was the high school grade winner. The firm of EKS&H was honored with the 2014 Champions of Education award. The foundation luncheon also served to introduce four award winners. The Catherine Canny Educator Advocate Award
Retired Cherry Creek Schools Superintendent Dr. Monte Moses, Educator Award winner Jim McDermott and school board member Karen Fisher went to Jim McDermott; the Monte Moses Future Educator Scholarship went to Breana Stampley, the Giving Generations AVID Graduate with Distinction Scholarship was accepted by Kalya Hardin-Lawson and Jasmin Jimenez, as reported in The Villager last week. From just a few campuses, the Cherry Creek School District now has 59 schools where more than 54,000 students are enrolled. gloryweisberg@comcast.net

ancer League of Colorado has its Hope Ball, Dedicated to the Ones We Love, May 10, at the Hyatt Denver Tech Center. Every year, Dealin’ Doug Moreland donates an auto to the raffle. This is an outright donation, not a lease and he’s dedicated to giving the nonprofit an auto for as long as he’s an auto dealer. He’s been doing so for decades and this year he’s donated a $40,000 crystal black Jeep Cherokee, loaded with extras. I hate cold steering wheels – by the time they’ve warmed up, my hands are icy cold, but this Jeep has a heated steering wheel. “Be still my heart,” as a saying goes. Raffle tickets are $20 each or six for $100. There are only 7,000 raffle tickets and one Cancer League past president has already sold $900 worth. The winning raffle ticket will be drawn during the gala but the winner does not have to be present to win. You may get a phone call from someone at the ball telling you to come get the keys and title at your convenience. One memorable year, the winner refused to believe he’d won the car and it took about 20 minutes to convince him he had but he finally accepted the keys, asking, “Can I drive it around the curve here?” He could drive it to Alaska for all we cared, as soon as taxes and registration were paid. Gayle Novak is chairing the Hope Ball and the Jeep is often parked in front of her restaurant, The Summit, and other CLC members would also be happy to sell you raffle tickets.

Chihuly comes to Botanic Gardens
The first major outdoor exhibit of Dale Chihuly glass art is coming to the Denver Botanic Gardens, starting June 14, lasting there through Nov. 30. The art will be presented at 12 locations at the site, responding to surrounding plants, flowers and architecture. If your first exposure to Chihuly was the foyer at The Ellie Caulkins Opera House or in a Cherry Creek North art store, you really need to go see this exhibit. It is only at the Botanic Gardens main site on East York Street, none at the Chatfield site. Among the great ways to see this collection is at Chihuly Nights, a special nighttime viewing, as the art will be illuminated to “enhance their bright colors and translucent nature.” I couldn’t have said it better. I just worry about this fragile glass and its exposure to our hailstorms, ready to strike when it’s too hot to snow. We can only assume the Gardens has a proverbial Plan B.

Republican Bob Beauprez in the race for governor Claudia Beauprez was introduced as someone who would make a great first lady. She gave her remarks at a recent Cherry Hills Country Club luncheon in her honor. Her family moved to Colorado from Buffalo, N.Y., when she was a teen. And, she was not happy about it at the time. “I will never date a rancher or a farmer,” she declared. So much for that! Claudia and a farmer, businessman, author, editor and chief of A Line of Sight public policy website and politician have been married for more than four decades, have three sons and a daughter and…now raise buffalo on a ranch. “I’m so proud of what my husband has done for Colorado,” she said. “It would have been simple to stay on the ranch, but this election is really important. We thought about our children and grandchildren. The phone rang with encouragement. We asked ourselves: If not now, when? If not Bob, then who? “If anyone can turn Colorado around, it’s Bob. He has reached the top with leadership skills and he rolls up his sleeves and gets it done. He has conviction and a good moral compass. He is a fifth generation Coloradan on his mom’s side and third on his dad’s. As governor, you won’t be disappointed.”
Mary K Lowe, Michelle Lyng and Monica Owens of Owens Public Affairs Some of the Beauprez family members surround Bob and Claudia at the luncheon – daughter Melanie Fuller, granddaughters Virginia Anne Fuller (whom Bob calls his chief of staff) and Katherine Fuller, and daughter-in-law Erin Beauprez Beauprez grew up in a family of dairy farmers, and always made things better whether on the farm or in business. His tenacity and forward thinking led to development of Holstein embryo chips to be shipped, rather than the large animal, and he became a leading world exporter. He later saved the hometown bank taking a failed institution with $4 in assets to $400 million, from one employee to 150 with 13 branches. It became the envy of the industry. (Claudia later successfully took the reins while Bob was in Congress.) He has been a grassroots politician for more than 30 years. He has
served as Boulder County Republican Party chair and Colorado Republican chair. Seven is his lucky number. In 2002, he was the seventh candidate in the race for the 7th District and won the Congressional election. It appears that he was the seventh to enter the race as Republican nomination for governor this time. “I consider myself traditional with an eye on the future,” said Beauprez. “My traditional values come from my late parents. What I’m hearing is that people don’t feel good about themselves anymore. This has been the slowest recovery since WWII. There has been an explosion of mari-
I’ll make government work at the speed of business, not the speed of government. – Bob Beauprez juana shops but oil and gas has been shoved to the corner. Our economy begins with energy. Can you imagine energy independence if we don’t kill the golden goose? What is getting in the way? I will look at Colorado department by department, area by area. Bobby Jindal cut 25 percent of expenses in Louisiana. Former Colorado Gov. Bill Owens vetoed 141 bills and saved Colorado hundreds of millions of dollars.” About education, he shared that roughly 30 percent of our third-grad-
ers are not reading at level and about Common Core – we should set our own standards. “With regard to technology – we can’t seem to find enough engineers. We have been devoid of leadership. Our governor signed a mandatory early release, which led to killings. We need to build things up, not tear them down. I’ll make government work at the speed of business, not the speed of government,” he said. “I’ll finish by applauding Claudia. We’ve been a team for 44 years.”
Triple header at Cherry Creek Republican Women
During this election cycle, three outstanding officials in Arapahoe County who are candidates for county offices, but whose influence extends far beyond the county, addressed Cherry Creek Republican Women: Arapahoe County Assessor Corbin Sakdol, Commissioner District 2 Nancy Sharpe and Sheriff Dave Walcher. CCRW Program chair Mary Wenke introduced Walcher by saying: “Thank God for Grayson Robinson and his succession plan.” Walcher, who had been undersheriff, was appointed sheriff on Feb. 1 after Robinson resigned. The Colorado native has 33 years of law enforcement experience, including deputy sheriff of Jefferson County and seven years with the FBI. He earned a master’s in criminal justice from CU-Denver, teaches at CU-Denver and serves on the board of Aurora Mental Health Center and is co-chair of the Colorado Correctional Treatment Board. He has a passion for keeping us safe. Among his responsibilities - he is in charge of a $75 million budget, a staff of 400 at the correctional facility, patrol, school enforcement, where seconds matter, and crimes related to what happens on the Internet. He is also involved in the educational programs with Kaiser on prescription drug abuse and the new law enforcement issues with marijuana, as well as mental health
Arapahoe County Sheriff Dave Walcher, County Commissioner Nancy Sharpe and Assessor Corbin Sakdol issues for inmates. He is proud of the promoting-from-within policy and the first female captain. He runs an efficient law enforcement program at $200 per capita as compared, for instance, to Arvada at $260 per capita. Arapahoe County Assessor Corbin Sakdol is serving his second term. He has worked for the Assessor’s Office since 1990. He is a licensed general appraiser, was a licensed real estate broker for more than 20 years, teaches real estate brokers and has a degree in architectural technology. He was elected president of the Colorado Assessors Association in 2014, voted CAA Assessor of the Year by his peers in 2012 and has served as chair of the CAA Public Relations Committee. He oversees the office that discovers, lists, classi-
fies and values all real and personal property in Arapahoe County. His office is also responsible for maintaining public records including ownership and parcel maps. “I’m running on my third term and it seems that my first was only yesterday,” he said. “Arapahoe County is huge. We talk about Arapahoe County trivia at the dinner table.” Arapahoe County Commissioner District 2 Nancy Sharpe was mayor of Greenwood Village and a member of Greenwood Village City Council. District 2 includes Centennial, Greenwood Village, a small portion of Aurora and unincorporated central Arapahoe County. Many don’t understand what it is that commissioners actually do. She oversees the Human Services, Open Spaces
Cindy Acree, who has announced her candidacy for Arapahoe County Commissioner, with Linda Tweedy and Arapahoe County Republicans leader Joy Hoffman and Intergovernmental Relations departments. Commissioners also have the responsibility for budgeting since Arapahoe does not have a county manager/administrator as some do. Sharpe also represents Arapahoe County on a number of local and regional issues, including the Board of Social Services and Housing Authority. She was elected by her peers to serve as chair of the Metro Area County Commissioners. At the national level, she served as vice chair of the National Association of Counties’ Aging, a subcommittee of the Human Services and Education Committee. “I represent the county on lots of different boards and committees because millions and millions of dollars
come in to our county and we need to make sure it goes where it belongs. I feel a social and fiscal responsibility and also want to help people get off more public assistance programs. I also worked on the Elder Abuse Task Force. Our county is addressing the impact of our aging population. For cities, the aging represents less revenue. We want to join forces with resources to help the elderly whether they want to stay in their homes or need additional assistance.” She’s focused on economic development and viability in our county. “That means: living within our means, keeping regulation to a minimum and offering quality services whether people want to live or work in Arapahoe County,” she said.

ICON Awards 15th Martinis are Forever By Steven Weisberg The annual ICON Awards Gala celebrated its 15th anniversary downtown at the Grand Hyatt Denver to recognize many events-industry vendors’ specific accomplishments and to recognize winners via a judges track and a people’s choice track. A James Bond theme was adopted with Aston Marton vehicles parked at the valet and master of ceremonies Ed Greene performing a like-minded comedy skit via a pre-recorded session. As an event by the events industry for the events industry, it never lacks for energy, decoration, on-stage entertainment or participation on the dance floor. Founder and event chair Terry Vitale was not able to address the crowd, although M.C. Greene made a brief attempt to imitate her. The awards ceremony was long yet engaging as a result of the excellent video production that featured numerous visual examples and the multiple rounds of cheers that several finalists garnered. Five different companies provided entertainment and attendee participation following dinner was very strong. For more information, visit www.coloradoexpression.com or call Lisa at 303-694-1289

Summer Reading Program
Literacy: The Gateway to Learning
Literacy is the most important skill a person has in today’s society. No matter where we go, words surround us. Traffic signs, food labels, medicine bottles and news articles all contain words conveying information needed to live safely. One cannot travel across cyberspace without using reading skills. Today, you cannot be a chef, nurse, construction worker or store owner without reading skills. Without reading, daily living is a challenge. Today, far too many children cannot read. Numbers of the functionally illiterate, school age children in America are estimated to be in the millions. Visit www. NationsReportCard.gov to access data on reading skills of our country’s youth. The good news is, K-12 educators are now infusing research-based reading programs
into instruction. Many students learn to read easily, but about 30-35 percent of students do not. Several computer programs now exist (e.g., Lexia Core5 or Let’s Go Learn), providing struggling readers with the intervention needed to develop fluency. Summer programs are also effective, especially when teachers have experience in effective reading intervention. If you have a son or daughter struggling with reading, access resources on the web (e.g., ChildrenOfTheCode. org or ReadingRockets.org) to learn about the reading process and effective programs. The more you know, the better you will evaluate interventions used with your child. Mary Spencer is a third grade teacher at Grant Ranch School in Denver. She is the founder of American Reading Corps, LLC, an organization providing summer reading intervention services to struggling readers. For more information, visit www.AmericanReadingCorps.com.

Cherry Creek Schools Day at the Capitol Submitted by CCSD State lawmakers got an earful from Cherry Creek Schools parents during the annual Cherry Creek Schools Day at the Capitol, March 21, which was sponsored by the Cherry Creek Community Legislative Network. The parents, passionate about quality education for their children and concerned about several key issues, including high stakes testing and adequate funding for public schools, asked legislators to really listen to parents and educators, and act accordingly. Sen. Michael Johnston, Senate sponsor of House Bill 141292, the controversial “Student Success Act,” was challenged by parents who are worried that
some items in the bill create more bureaucracy but won’t benefit students. Day at the Capitol participants also met with Sen. Nancy Todd, Sen. David Balmer, Rep. Spencer Swalm, Rep. Daniel Kagan and Rep. John Buckner. Both Todd and Balmer indicated they will not support the bill in its current form with the earmarks, saying that locally elected school boards should decide how to spend funds to benefit students in their home districts. Dr. Harry Bull, superintendent of Cherry Creek Schools, reiterated the position taken by superintendents across the state, that so-called “negative factor” funding be restored without mandates.
Jim O’Brien, president of the CCSD Board of Education, said it is an “inconvenient truth” for legislators that the Colorado Constitution gives control of local school districts to locally elected boards of education. CCCLN is a non-partisan committee promoting awareness of education issues, legislation and the legislative process. In addition to the Day at the Capitol, the group hosts a Breakfast with Legislators in the fall, a Legislative Overview at the beginning of the session, and a Legislative Wrap-up at the end of the session. That event will be held from 8 to 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, May 15, at West Middle School, 5151 S. Holly St., Greenwood Village.

Cherry Creek Schools and MSU establish Aviation/STEM pathway Metropolitan State University of Denver and Cherry Creek School District have established an aviation/STEM pathway providing students college credit in high school for completing the district’s new capstone course in aviation fundamentals. MSU Denver faculty will teach the six-credit course at the university’s south campus in Greenwood Village from 1:30-2:50 p.m. two days a week, alternating days in conjunction with the district’s block schedule. While Cherry Creek Schools is the anchor administrator for the partnership, the program provides an opportunity for students from Douglas County, Englewood, Littleton and Sheri-
dan to also participate. “While the concept of concurrent enrollment isn’t new, the establishment of college preparatory aviation/STEM pathways in one of Colorado’s key industries is new,” said Harry Bull, Cherry Creek’s superintendent. “When MSU Denver approached us with this opportunity for our students to gain college credit, we jumped at the chance because it dovetails well with the district’s STEM education initiatives.” The new course can accept up to 20 students for fall 2014. There are already 10 students registered from Cherry Creek and Littleton Public Schools. Students will study aircraft and components,
aerodynamics, basic aircraft systems, the airport environment, airtraffic control procedures, federal aviation regulations, the basic elements of air and radio navigation and a review of aviation weather. “Cherry Creek is one of the only school districts in Colorado to offer a college-preparatory program focused specifically in the field of aviation,” said Jeffrey Forrest, chair of the MSU Denver Department of Aviation and Aerospace Science. “This partnership enables us to educate local students of today for the jobs of tomorrow, while moving the state away from its historical pattern of importing talent for local aviation and aerospace jobs.”

Cherry Hills Village turns out to help Ryan Dunne
Boy suffers from rare form of muscular dystrophy
By Jan Wondra They streamed in from everywhere on March 18 to Cherry Hills Village Elementary School, at University and Quincy. Children, parents, educators, law enforcement and public officials all came out to do a simple thing: create an event that would help expedite the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of a medication that can save 9-yearold Ryan Dunne. “Help Ryan Dunne, help Ryan Dunne,” echoed across the school yard as organizers coordinated the flash mob, filled with red hair bows, red pon pons, mini-cheerleader outfits and handmade “Help Ryan Dunne” signs. “He’s a little overwhelmed by all this,” said dad, Chris Dunne, as Ryan, dressed in his favorite Broncos-orange jacket, leaned against him, hiding his face in his father’s jacket. “He can’t believe that all of this is for him.” “I officially declare this day, March 18, as Ryan Dunne Day in Cherry Hills Village,” said Mayor Doug Tisdale in his opening remarks. “ To see our community pulling together like this to help this important cause is incredible to see.” Ryan Dunne is a third grader who has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a terminal disease with no known treatment. Children with this genetic defect begin to weaken in elementary school, move to an electric wheelchair by middle school, and as they lose the function of their lungs and heart, few survive into their 20s. Last year, Ryan participated in a six-month FDA clinical trial of two new drugs that halt the progression of the disease. He, along with other boys in the trial, showed marked

The purpose of the assembly was to create a video to include in the family’s appeal to accelerate approval of the life-saving drugs. “I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to see all of you,” said Ryan’s mother, Jennifer Dunne, to the assembled crowd, which participated in the filming of the flash mob video. “We need these drugs to receive FDA approval now. We don’t have years.” “We are completely overwhelmed by the support that we have received from the CHV community,” said Chris Dunne. “Everyone from Mayor Tisdale and the police department
to the administration and staff at Cherry Hills Village Elementary school has been amazing donating time, effort and facilities in order to support Ryan. We had a wonderful group of moms organizing the events and tirelessly working with social media to get the word out, and
three dedicated and talented young women from Cherry Creek High School responsible for creating the website. This was a true showing of community spirit and an amazing example of what a group of people can do when they work together.” The FDA drug approval process

is normally a rigorous, years long process to assure the safety of drugs brought to market. Very few drugs are placed on a fast track for accelerated approval, even when they show success, like those in the trial in which Ryan participated. The main treatment drug goes by the tonguetwister name, eteplirsen. According to the drug’s lead investigator, Jerry Mendell, the two drugs in the DBD trial work. “We recognize the huge unmet medical need in Duchene muscular dystrophy, and the devastating nature of the disease for patients and their families and the great urgency to make new treatments available,” said Mendell. “Every child in the trial showed improvement and the drug had no side effects,” said Chris Dunne. “The thing is, the earlier the treatment, the better the results. This drug seems to halt the progression of the disease. If children can receive it before they hit the wheelchair phase, before requiring a ventilator to breath, they can stabilize.” The family, including big brothers Connor, 13, and Jack, 11, is focused on the approval of the drugs as a treatment, not a cure. “The way I explain it, my brother has diabetes, he’ll never be cured, but he can be treated,” said Jack. “This drug isn’t a cure for DBD, but it is a treatment.” For an accelerated approval of the drug to be considered, a public groundswell first needs to be created. The Dunne family has started a petition on www.WhiteHouse.gov. The window to collect signatures is only 30 days long and requires 100,000 signatures within that 30day window. At press time, the family had collected more than 94,000 signatures and has until March 29 to reach the mark. “The thing is, this is just the first step,” said Chris Dunne. “Once we collect the signatures, then we move onto the consideration phase. Every month delay means something to families like ours.” More information is available at www.helpryandunne.com.

Greenwood Village study session highlights citizen water conservation effort The Jasmine project receives standing ovation
By Jan Wondra While the March 17 Greenwood City Council study session covered multiple topics, but no other topic received the standing ovation given the citizen volunteer effort called the Jasmine project. “I’ve been working on this council for 10 years and I can’t recall a single citizen effort of such importance,” said Mayor Ron Rakowsky. “To say I give you high praise is not sufficient.” The study, a joint effort of the City of Greenwood Village, instigated by Greenwood Hills resident Bob Doyle working with Denver Water, demonstrates that water conservation practices, and some practical attention to logistical and physical aspects of irrigation and water use, can pay off. The Jasmine study, named for the street Doyle calls home, involved 14 neighbors who volunteered to participate. Following their initial water audits, they worked with Denver Water to see if they could reduce water use and realize savings in
their water bills. In previous years during summer months, the 14 residences had water bills ranging from $300 to $1,000 per month. At the end of the study, 13 of the 14 residents had reduced their water use by 70,000 gallons per resident and saved, on average, $700 on their water bills. (The 14th homeowner embarked on a massive landscaping project with new irrigation system and new plantings, which required more water.) “We wanted to see if by applying best practices to water use, and adjusting our equipment and irrigation arrangements, if we could cut down on water use and save money,” said Doyle, a retired environmental engineer. “We found that good awareness of water scheduling, some of us even programmed to adjust for rainfall, really works. At the start, we repaired our sprinkler heads, adjusted our watering patterns and water pressure, and looked for leaks. With the audit, one of us found a major leak under the driveway, that was wasting water.” Brandi Honeycutt, of Denver Water, who was water consultant on the study, said, “By employing
water audits, we were able to identify the higher water usage, compared to the neighbors. It identified that there must be a leak, and the homeowner could make the repair, saving thousands of gallons of water per month. “In April, as a direct result of the study, Greenwood Village will begin a monthly, single family home communication project, sharing the study findings, providing homeowners with comparisons of their water usage with neighbors, offering recommendations for how to cut residential water consumption. Denver Water will be offering a program called “Garden in a Box,” filled with low-water plantings and a planting model to beautify yards while using less water. Greenwood Village is reviewing the addition of some sample xeriscape public gardens in locations throughout the city, to show residents that beauty and water savings can coexist. “Denver Water will be offering free residential irrigation water audits to Greenwood Village residents, but residents have to request one,” said Honeycutt. “As long as we have capacity, we’ll offer them.” Submit your letters online at: www.villagerpublishing.com or email to: editorial@villagerpublishing.com 303-773-8313

South metro welcomes expanded Rx compounding center Brown’s debuts 38,000-square-foot stateof-the-art facility By Peter Jones So with a pharmacy in almost every grocery store, why would a consumer travel to the expansive Brown’s Compounding Center in Douglas County? “A patient, for example, may be allergic to a dye or a filler in a medication, but needs the medication nonetheless,” said Founder/Owner Darby Brown. “So we use the raw chemicals to put all those together without the dye or filler.” Likewise, a baby with a heart condition would not be able to swallow the standard-sized capsules filled in 15 minutes at a chain pharmacy. “We’ll take those tablets, crash it up and put it in a suspension they can swallow,” Brown said. “Also, they’re going to be using much smaller doses.” In short, Brown’s is a specialorder pharmacy where each prescription is filled with the hyperspecifics of the individual patient in mind. From psychiatric medications and hormone-replacement drugs to topical creams and suppositories, Brown’s delivers – quite literally – to patients and doctors across the United States. “Consumers are looking for the best alternatives in health care,” Brown said. “This isn’t a new science by any stretch of the imagination. Pharmacists were doing this back in the ‘50s before manufacturing became really prevalent. We’ve carried that same science into the future with a lot more technology.” Most major insurance, excepting Medicaid and Medicare, is accepted. Ten-year-old Brown’s has been successful enough to prompt its expansion last month to a new sprawling location near the intersection of E-470 and Peoria Street. The new
facility has allowed the company to expand its national customer base and increase its state-of-the-art focus. Among many other features, Brown’s new building boasts a special lab designed for creation of high-risk compounds and a hazardous-drug room for chemotherapy drugs and other biological agents. “There is no other facility I have been in, to date, that would stand head and shoulders to what this facility has,” said Eric Kastango, CEO of Clinical IQ, the company that designed much of this pharmaceutical powerhouse. The 38,000-square-foot solarpowered laboratory, located at 13796 Compark Blvd., is more than 10 times larger than Brown’s previous location in Parker and is believed to be the largest facility of its kind in the nation. Although Brown’s now serves customers in 38 states and growing, local walk-in customers constitute about 50 percent of business – and some walk in on four feet. The pharmacy offers handcrafted veterinary medications. “We had a Chihuahua with pulmonary hypertension,” said Brown, a registered pharmacist who got his start with vet meds. “We prepared a medication that contained the same ingredient that’s in Viagra. It actually caused dilation of the vessels so the heart would function.” The dog had no obvious side effects from his medication. Aside from providing another option for the community’s health care, Brown’s has nearly tripled its staff to 96, including 14 pharmacists, as noted by U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Aurora, at Brown’s March 19 ribbon cutting. “This is really a bright star in what probably has not been the best economic recovery in this country,” he said.

Senioritis rampant among end of school year students Kevin Iverson
COLLEGE PLANNING: Searching for solutions
By Estelle Meskin
Dear Estelle. With college applications complete, a few acceptances, and half of second semester gone, our senior has assumed a new persona. She no longer gives adequate time to homework, finds high school activities boring, and expresses an interest in doing things that my husband and I consider risky. Friends with seniors indicate their children are experiencing similar personality changes. Is this normal or should we be concerned and consider acting proactively with her? We don’t want college acceptances in

jeopardy due to bad grades. SCHOOL MATTERS - C. Thompson, parent, Highlands Ranch Just this week while attending a Kent Denver/Cherry Creek High School soccer game, I was chatting with a few moms. They mentioned their seniors were devoting little time to homework, seemed to have lost their focus and spend hours hanging out at Starbucks with their friends. Your daughter, like so many others, is experiencing senioritis, a malady exhibited By Judith Baenen St. Mary’s Academy by numerous seniors who already have their feet in college, even though they may not know yet where they’re going. Recalling the terrible two’s and middle school behavior, this is another transition time for your child. They are ready for more independence, and parents, concerned about the changes they see, are reluctant to give it to them. In her book The Launching Years, author-psychologist Dr. Laura Kastner outlines three distinct behaviors that constitute this period in a senior’s bid for independence. The Academic Slump: Students become indifferent to school or make less of an effort. They may be

occasionally truant or want to drop a class. Some may become confrontational with teachers whose expectations have not changed. Blahs to Everything: Nothing is interesting to them, neither their friends nor their activities, which typically engage them. Everything is boring. Power Surges: During this period, it is not unusual for the student to feel the need to call his own shots and make his own decisions. Many By Jim Miller exhibit an attitude of heightened competency coupled with the need to be trusted. For students who have slacked off and fallen into an academic slump, consider the possibility that colleges have the right to rescind your application. Somewhere in all those college admission letters, after the “congratulations” part, is a sentence that states, “Admission is conditional upon the student completing high school with the same academic and personal achievement on which your acceptance was based.” Each year colleges rescind offers to students whose grades have plummeted after they were admit-
