Every May the Colorado allen irefighter oundation honors and remembers men and women that have made the ultimate sacrifice in the

line of duty in protecting the people of Colorado. irefighters ensure the public safety and well being of the public in many cases putting themselves in harm’s way in order

to save others. This year three more names were added to the Colorado allen irefighter Memorial wall. Brett Anderson of Adams County Fire Rescue, James R. Schaefer of

Arvada Fire Rescue and Aaron Lybarger of West Metro Fire Rescue were etched into the stone wall, bringing the total to a 150 names on the memorial. Family and friends of the

fallen were accompanied by members from Arvada, Denver, Colorado Springs, Evergreen, South Metro and West Metro Fire Rescue to pay respect and tribute to the fallen.

CHV city council at odds about Kent Denver School Everyone on the Cherry Hills Village City Council agrees that Kent Denver School is a valuable community asset and a dedicated partner to the city. The view on what Kent should do about traffic congestion caused by

its operation is murkier. In September, 2017, Kent asked CHV to grant it an expanded use permit to construct a new school building. The city raised the question of traffic congestion nearby the school and how it might be mitigated. That led to traffic engineers recommending the installation of a roundabout at

Quincy Avenue and Colorado Boulevard, which initially seemed to make practical sense to city council and staff. Then the idea was shared with the community, who made it abundantly clear that it absolutely did not want it built. City council immediately abandoned the idea, though the whole chain of events

left the community bruised. It also impacted Mayor Russell’s Stewart’s decision to get back into local politics (he was formerly on city council). After the roundabout idea was dead and buried, there remained language in Kent’s development agreement which said that Kent agreed to convey to the city land

needed to build the roundabout, should CHV decide to do so anytime through 2026. CHV’s regular city council meeting agenda for Tuesday, May 7 included a proposal to simply remove that language. Mayor Stewart made it clear that

FAA making changes regarding air flights; noise levels at Centennial may change BY DORIS B. TRUHLAR GOVERNMENTAL REPORTER

The Federal Aviation Administration has made a draft environmental assessment that may result in impactful changes in noise levels, and also arrival and departure procedures, at multiple airports throughout the Denver metropolitan area. Communities that may be impacted include Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, Lone Tree, Greenwood Village, Parker, Aurora, unincorporated Arapahoe County and Douglas County. It appears there is likely to be an impact on the general area, particularly related to the noise generated by the airports. Some members of the City of Centennial staff and City Council

Moon, who is married to Vorry Moon, a former Centennial councilman who served two and one-half terms on the council and is also an Air Force veteran as well as a pilot, said that the new rules the FAA is considering will only apply to “instrument ying rules.” The effect of what the FAA is proposing will be that airplanes departing from DIA will “have to get to 10,000 feet above ground level from departure very quickly,” she said. This proposed change in the environmental assessment may present challenges to Centennial Airport, as well as to all the communities impacted in Arapahoe and Douglas counties.

he felt strongly that the proposal should be approved. He said that “this was a campaign issue for me.” He went on to state that in his legal opinion, the agreement was unconstitutional and should never have happened because it lacked the proportionality and nexus required under Colorado law. Asked to weigh in, CHV’s city attorney politely disagreed. Jerry Walker testified at length on behalf of Kent Denver. He told city council that Kent planned to add a second late-start day next year and planned to offer preferred parking spots to students who carpooled to school. Both those actions were hoped to mitigate traffic congestion around the school. Mayor Pro Tem Katy Brown asked Walker whether Kent would consider making its start

time later every day to help with traffic congestion. Walker said that Kent could only do that if the city allowed the school to install lights on its athletic fields, since sports activities would likewise have to occur later in the day. Adding lights to ent’s athletic fields is an idea that has been strongly opposed by CHV residents. Brown also asked Walker if Kent would consider capping its enrollment at a number lower than the 805 students it is presently permitted, since Walker said Kent’s intention is to maintain enrollment at around 700. Walker said he could not do so. Other city council members asked Walker similar questions. Several community members, including Kent parents, recommended that city council approve the removal of the language as proposed. Former CHV Mayor Laura Christman

and Earl Hoellen, former CHV city council member, recommended the city think hard before saying yes to the proposal. Christman said, “I don’t care now and I didn’t care then if there’s a roundabout. The issue is traffic and safety. The reason I’m here is that Kent Denver seems to use lights (on its sports fields as a way to leverage this issue.” Hoellen said, “None of us have any idea what traffic conditions might be like 8 years from now or what the citizens of CHV might think about how to solve them. It was always intended that this provision of the Development Agreement was to give the City an option to deal with traffic problems at that location.” Tension increased when Brown proposed an amendment that would lower Kent’s enrollment capacity from 805 to 720. It failed to garner a second and the mayor declared it dead. Council member Dan Sheldon proposed a two-week continuance to collaborate with Kent on the subject of traffic. Council member Afshin Safavi expressed strong support for the original proposal and observed out loud that a tie vote would be broken by Mayor Stewart. That proved true. The vote on the question of the two-week continuance failed on a three to three tie vote, after which the mayor voted no. Also voting no were Safavi, Randy Weil and Mike Gallagher. Voting yes were city council members Brown, Sheldon, and Al Blum. The vote on the original proposal was the same, in reverse. Safavi, Gallagher, and Weil voted in favor of removing the language requiring Kent to be potentially obligated to convey a small amount of land to the city during the next eight years. Again, Mayor Stewart broke the tie, voting yes. Fmiklin.villager@gmail.com

Death of a mentor

In everyone’s life, there is a person who has a profound in uence on your life. One who instills in you the confidence to find the courage to accept a challenge that stretches your natural abilities way beyond your imaginations. I was fortunate to have someone that afforded me that opportunity nearly 60 years ago. As a young 16-year-old boy, I was always fascinated by aviation. I would build model airplanes, read books about famous aviators and ride my bicycle to our local airport to watch the air-

After the tour of the airport, rancis bought me a coke and we sat down in the operations building and began talking about our mutual love of aviation.

I took a deep breath and said, “I’d like to learn to y.” Adding that I, nor my parents, could afford training costs.” To my surprise rancis said, “That should not be a problem.” “How could that be ” I asked with a puzzled look on my face. rancis e plained

Silo Park, at 9300 E. Orchard Road in Greenwood Village, was built 23 years ago. It was time to replace the aging playground equipment when city staff couldn’t even get parts to fi it any longer. Last June, a public input meeting was held that included children telling city staff from the parks, trails, and recreation department what types of equipment they wanted. After a bidding process, Star Playgrounds was chosen for the job. Their proposed design was presented to the community for feedback in November. Construction was done during the winter to minimize

the Koelbel and Company announces plans for “watershed” in River North Promenade and Company. “Collectively, they represent the flagship buildings of our commercial portfolio. The River Promenade district and all it will offer to the area can’t be found anywhere else in Denver and will surely make RiNo the location of choice for Denver employers.” Catalyst recently earned significant recognition for its innovation in the market, as

Area Destined to Become Denver’s Most Iconic New Business District CONTRIBUTED BY KOELBEL AND COMPANY

Koelbel and Company, in conjunction with L&M Capital, is proud to unveil Watershed the next iteration of visionary commercial design in Denver’s River orth Art District Ri o . Slated to break ground next year, this nine-story, 180,000 square foot building along the River North Promenade district is destined to become the commercial ne us of the neighborhood. The complex will include 167,000 s uare feet of office, 13,000 square feet of ground oor retail, three levels of parking and five oors of office. Watershed is scheduled to break ground in early 2020 with anticipated completion mid-2021. Always striving to incorporate forward-thinking concepts, oelbel’s plans for Watershed include the most sought-after amenities in the marketplace. Watershed will include more than 9,000 square feet of dedicated/private outdoor space- a rare commodity in the Denver commercial landscape. The building’s design integrates a series of eight stepping patio outdoor spaces cascading toward the latte River. E periential retail located along the “paseo” - from Brighton Boulevard into the activated alley - will be a draw for the building’s tenants and visitors alike. Watershed’s western façade is accessible and open to respond to the river and mountains. A daylit vertical stair pulled to the building’s exterior serves as a connector between building and neighborhood, linking workspace to the abundance of amenities that define the playground of Ri o. According to Dean oelbel, Director of Leasing Operations for oelbel, who oversees Watershed, one of the most powerful attributes of the innovative complex is its access to top talent

and public and commuter transit. “The building itself will be a draw to potential employees and the proximity to where they live is significant to companies looking to attract the top talent – especially the ones relocating from out of state,” says Dean oelbel. “We believe we’re at the peak of the bell curve. Larger tech companies understand that RiNo is the place to be in Denver.” Located along the A-Line Light rail corridor that runs into downtown Denver from Denver International Airport, Watershed offers prime proximity to commuter rail, the new highly anticipated River North Promenade district, open spaces and trails, as well a vibrant mix of hotels, restaurants, local breweries and art galleries – all bringing an eclectic energy to the area. Watershed’s striking, masonry façade will create a timeless presence on Brighton Boulevard, punctuated by the artful nature of window apertures, balconies, and pockets of open space breaking up large oor plates. ptions for inter- oor connectivity and customization will allow the building to synthesize its creative occupants. Watershed’s architecture embodies the uid undercurrents that define Ri o creativity, ingenuity, risk and transformation. Watershed will rise ne t to Catalyst, the pace-setting real estate development in RiNo that broke ground just three years ago, co-founded by Koelbel, Mike Biselli and L&M Capital. Catalyst’s Health-Tech Innovation campus set the tone

for imaginative commercial endeavors in RiNo by bringing together stakeholders in the health, wellness and health care industries in a collaborative setting to fundamentally transform traditional health care. Watershed is poised to become the ne t in ection point between old and new RiNo, creating a more sophisticated character for commercial projects. When Catalyst was introduced to the market, the mix of amenities offered to tenants set the tone for new commercial projects in our market,” said Jon Gambrill, Principal at Gensler, the architect for the project. “Watershed represents this continuation of that dynamic vision to push the boundary in our market of how a building and the amenities within can create a thriving community that supports any and all companies housed within. We are also e cited that this development will be recognized by tenants for supporting how they work at a different level and will become the turning point for Ri o’s commercial viability.” Drawing on its long history of attracting top-tier companies to the region, Koelbel views Watershed and Catalyst as forces tapping into a groundswell of energy by companies choosing to relocate to this iconic new business district. “Koelbel’s involvement in RiNo started with Industry, a collaborative office complex, followed by Catalyst and now Watershed,” said Buz Koelbel, President of Koelbel

evidenced by ColoradoBiz naming Koelbel’s partner Mike Biselli, 2019 Entrepreneur of the ear Watershed will be the partnership’s next commercial creation where companies will also thrive. L&M Capital Investments, is another of Koelbel’s key partners on the Watershed project. The general contractor is JE Dunn.

Centennial finalizes 5 annexations BY DORIS B. TRUHLAR GOVERNMENTAL REPORTER

Five annexations of enclaves in Centennial, totaling more than 31 acres, were approved on final reading by the City Council at a meeting last week. There was no opposi-

tion to the annexations at public hearings. The council also approved unanimously initial zonings on all five parcels of land. Under existing law, an enclave annexation is one in which the entire parcel of land is surrounded by the city. The five parcels anne ed,

the number of acres in each property, and the zoning are as listed in the paragraphs that follow. --Dry Creek Crossing Condos, southeast of East Dry Creek Road and South Yosemite Street, a 8.5-acre enclave, urban residential zoning allowing multi-family

housing of up to 30 dwelling units per acre. --Cubesmart enclave, 3.41 acres northwest of the intersection of East Easter Avenue and South Kenton Street, with zoning business park 100, which allows for self-storage and office. --Fox Run Condos, 8.75 acres southeast of the intersection of East Fremont Street and South Blackhawk Street,

urban residential zoning, allowing up to 30 units per acre. --Neighborhood Self Storage Boat & RV, a 7.73-acre parcel east of East Davies Avenue and South Blackhawk Street, with industrial zoning. --Windmill Creek Storage Condos, a 3.0-acre parcel northeast of the intersection of East Easter Place and South Blackhawk Street, industrial zoning.

MADD Colorado and State Farm empower teens to #ProtectURSquad light tips and real-life examples of underage substance use consequences from MADD’s teen booklet and on the powerofyouth.com website. “Young people who drink are a danger to themselves, their friends and others,” said MADD National President Helen Witty. “My daughter’s life ended when a 17-year-old made the deadly decision to drink alcohol and smoke marijuana – then get behind the wheel of a car with a group of her friends. My daughter, Helen Marie, had just turned 16 when she was struck while rollerblading on a bike path just a few blocks from home. She died a sudden, violent death. Her teen killer went to prison. Countless lives changed forever, including mine. MADD is grateful to State Farm for helping share the important message that teen alcohol use alters – and takes –

lives. About 4,300 teens die each year from this epidemic. Two out of three of these deaths do not involve a vehicle.” This year’s focus, #Protect -UrSquad, is about encouraging youth groups to support each other by agreeing as a group to avoid underage drinking and never ride with someone who has been drinking or consuming cannabis. “State Farm is proud to support MADD and the Power of You(th)® program in their efforts to help keep teens safe,” said Tamara Pachl, Public Affairs Specialist with State Farm. “We encourage teens to take a stand by sharing positive messages, engaging their high schools and friends, and helping to promote safe and healthy communities.” Cannabis and alcohol are drugs associated with serious

developmental problems for those consuming these substances under the age of 21 while the brain and body are still in a rapid period of development. Research shows: Cannabis accounts for 50 percent of the seven million people age 12 or older dependent on or abusing a drug. From 2006-2010, alcohol was a factor in an average of 492 suicides; 1,269 homicides; 245 reports of death from alcohol poisoning, falls, burns or drowning; and 1,580 deaths from motor vehicle crashes of people under the age of 21 each year. Even if no death occurs, teens can get seriously hurt by drinking alcohol. In 2011, 188,000 people under the age of 21 visited an emergency room because of alcohol-related injuries. Young people who begin drinking at 15 are six times more

likely to become substance dependent or even abuse substances later in life. Adolescents are more vulnerable to substance-induced brain damage, which contributes to poor performance at school and in future jobs. Students who binge drink are more likely to do poorly in school, be victims of dating violence as well as participate in dangerous activities such as riding with a drunk driver, smoke cigarettes or cigars or vape underage, and attempt suicide. “Please have fun, but keep yourself and your friends safe by not drinking alcohol or consuming cannabis under the age of 21,” Witty said. “This is a season of celebration. Let’s keep it that way.” View the Power of You(th) booklet and learn more at www. powerofyouth.com.

event from DC regarding National Mental Health Day, the Substance Abuse Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) had an impressive speaker line-up including Colorado’s own Lynn Johnson, now the Director of the Administration of Children and Families. Speakers essentially used the same language to prevent depression and suicide. The words that were oft-repeated were belonging, connectedness and communities of care. As a curriculum and programming director for public health strategies regarding optimal health, I realize there is a need to operationalize these concepts and make them

user-friendly and interactive. The question that starts the activity is, Who do you belong to? Students answer that question by saying, “Parents,” “My friends,” “My family.” If Isaiah says he doesn’t belong to anyone, I lean in with love and caring to get Isaiah connected to at least one of his classmates. I ask the class, who will be connected to Isaiah? Who will volunteer to be his 2 o’clock in the morning friend? Students responded overwhelmingly, “I will,” We need to ask the right questions and help teens get connected. For more information: joneen@myrelationshipcenter. org or www.myrelationship center.org

To be grammatically correct, the question should be asked, “To whom do you belong?” No matter how it is asked, this question is a game changer. Isolation and loneliness are at epidemic proportions. According to a 2018 survey from The Economist and the Kaiser Family Foundation, more than two in 10 adults (22 percent) say they always or often feel lonely, lack companionship, or feel left out or isolated. Add to this a recent Cigna survey revealing that nearly half of Americans always or sometimes feel alone (46 percent) or left out (47 percent), 54 percent said they always or sometimes feel that no one knows them well. Unfortunately, these kinds of statistics are ubiquitous. Comfort animals, cable television and social media have replaced human interaction. This has huge implications for mental and public health. Scientists have known for years that loneliness and isolation are emotionally painful leading to depression, anxiety and other mental health disorders. Recently, however, researchers have recognized that social isolation triggers cellular changes resulting in chronic in ammation triggering high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, cancer and Alzheimer’s.

Has anyone noticed most of the school shooters have been individuals who have been described as loners or disconnected? The human condition requires that we bond and attach to others. We were born with proximity seeking behaviors. When our needs are met as infants, we learn to socialize and attach in healthy ways. When trauma or neglect is prevalent in childhood, this proximity seeking behavior overrides judgment, self-reg-

ulation and personal power. We settle for unhealthy relationships, which, for some, is better than no relationships. Some adolescents attempt to escape pain by cutting, rebelling, using substances, becoming violent, or getting involved in early sexual activity experimenting with same sex or opposite sex partners. There should be no judgment or shaming. We must work together to combat this level of loneliness and isolation and target interventions to issues of the heart, not the behavior.

Many of us like great barbecue and I visited Smokin’ Dave’s BBQ and Brew on Arapahoe Road, down the road beyond Benedicts and Macaroni Grill at the bottom of the hill. The building has been remodeled, with new signs and new menus. Owner Dave Oehlman from Estes Park is opening his sixth BBQ at this location in Centennial. I sampled the Texas beef brisket and they are the real deal with a wide menu of ribs, famous New Orleans red beans and rice, and southern cornbread.

THE LAW

Dear Readers, In this column, I will provide useful information to seniors, their families and caregivers, regarding legal topics and current law. You are encouraged to contact me regarding your questions. The topic for this column is powers of attorney, art 1 of 2. Did you know that simply being married does not give you the legal right to gain access to your spouse’s medical records or make medical decisions on

your spouse’s behalf, even in an emergency? This problem can be resolved through the use of appropriate powers of attorney. A power of attorney is a legal document that grants legal rights and powers by a person creating the document the “principal” to another the “agent” or “attorney-in-fact” to make decisions on behalf of the principal. The agent is a “fiduciary,” meaning that the agent is legally re uired to act in good faith on behalf of the principal. The agent must follow all instructions given by the principal and do what is in the principal’s best interest. A “durable” power of attorney allows an agent to make decisions even if the principal later becomes incapacitated. This is important if you become incapacitated because of an accident or illness because your agent

can then immediately make decisions for you without going to court to obtain a guardianship and/or conservatorship (which will be the subject of another column . Because power of attorney documents should be custom-tailored to your particular circumstances, they should be prepared by an attorney to ensure that your intentions are clearly expressed and are legally enforceable. This includes determining when a power of attorney should take effect, such as a “springing power” which means the documents will take effect only when a particular described

event takes place. A “standing power” takes effect immediately upon signing by the principal. otably, a power of attorney does not take away a principal’s right to make decisions. Additionally, a principal may change his or her mind and revoke a power of attorney at any time, provided the principal has the capacity to do so. eople often ask whom should they name as their agent under a power of attorney. The agent should be a trusted individual, which may include a spouse, an adult child, a sibling, a trusted friend or a professional fiduciary. It is always best to

learn from the person you want to name as agent, for permission to do so, to ensure that they are willing to accept the appointment. It is also helpful to appoint a successor agent, to serve if your first choice of agent cannot serve due to death, incapacity, resignation or unwillingness to accept the appointment. In the ne t column art 2 Types of power of attorney documents and agent’s duties.

The gut-healing supplement you never knew you should be taking Your gut is the foundation for your overall health and well-being. A compromised gut has been linked to many modern health problems, including anxiety, depression, autoimmune conditions, and even cancer. One common misconception is that you have to be having gut symptoms-like diarrhea, bloating, food intolerances, and gas-to have gut dysfunction; that is simply not the case. About 22 percent of people with underlying digestive problem do not have any sort of obvious digestive symptoms. So what happens when your gut health is out of whack? When your gastrointestinal tract is damaged, undigested food particles and toxins end up entering your bloodstream, leading to a cascade of chronic inflammation. Microbiome imbalances such as SIBO and candida overgrowth can also upset your gut and contribute to chronic health problems. The good news is that when it comes to healing long-standing health problems-no matter what ails you-you can start by healing your gut. The total surface area of your gut is covered in a type of cell called an enterocyte. These cells continually regenerate so that every two to three weeks you generate an entirely new gut lining! Because of this rapid regeneration, if you’re dealing with non-chronic gut problems you heal your gut in about 2 to12 weeks. But if you’re dealing with a completely damaged gut along with other autoimmune-inflammation spectrum problems, it can take the average adult between 12 and 24 months or more to fully heal the gut and see sustainable changes. There are many ways to approach gut healing. One very popular way is through supplementing with L-glutamine. You’ve probably seen L-glutamine supplements throughout vitamin and health food stores

advertised as the perfect way to rebuild and repair muscle tissue, especially for athletes. This is the most abundant amino acid in your blood and is used in the biosynthesis of protein to be used throughout your body. L-glutamine is all about repairing tissues in the body. Because of its powerful ability to repair tissue, L-glutamine is categorized as a conditionally essential amino acid since your body uses it in such large amounts during times of physical stress. And when it comes to gut health, L-glutamine is necessary for the health and growth of the enterocytes that line your gastrointestinal tract. As the preferred fuel for these enterocytes, L-glutamine is one of the most powerful tools you can have in combating leaky gut syndrome. So now we have all this information about how good L-glutamine is for your gut, but how do you know if it’s right for you? Well, ultimately it depends on the status of your gut. If you’re struggling through chronic health problems, yes, an L-glutamine supplement in addition to nourishing food medicines can give your gut the jump-start it needs to fully repair. But if you just need a reset, a bone broth protocol combined with the addition of sauerkraut may be all you need to do to achieve the results you’re looking for. To better determine if an L-glutamine supplement is right for you, seek out microbiome labs to assess the status of your gut health. If you decide that supplementation is right for you, a good general dose is between 2 and 5 grams per day. You can find supplements in either capsule or powder form. While both are fine, I am partial to powdered L-glutamine as it can be easier on your gut than capsules-especially if you are taking multiple vitamins and supplements a day.

be ‘mineral-based?’ Dr. Dawson: There are two categories of active ingredients in sunscreens – mineral blockers and chemical blockers. The mineral, or physical, blockers are zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. The chemical blockers include all of the other major sunscreen active ingredients – avobenzone, oxybenzone, octinoxate, etc. In a general sense, the mineral blockers work by reflecting UV radiation as it hits the skin. On the other hand, the chemical blockers function by absorbing the sun’s radiation. This means that they hold heat against the skin, which can be irritating and can trigger a rosacea or acne flare.

Dr. Dawson Dr. Annelise Dawson is a renowned Harvard- and UCSF-trained boardcertified dermatologist and a Littleton, Colorado native. She recently opened a beautiful, new practice, Cherry Hills Dermatology, and will serve as our in-house skin expert in a new column in The Villager.

The Villager: I find that mineral sunscreens leave a whitish film on my skin. Is there any way to avoid that? Dr. Dawson: Many companies are making very elegant mineral formulations that do not leave a heavy film or residue. Some add a tint to the sunscreen, which helps the sunscreen to blend in.

The Villager: Summer is fastapproaching and I am looking for a new sunscreen but don’t know how to choose one – how should I pick a sunscreen? Dr. Dawson: Great question! There are so many sunscreens on the market that it is hard to sort through them all. No sunscreen is effective if it just sits in the tube unused, so my goal is to help patients find a sunscreen that has a texture they like and that they are willing to use on a daily basis. As a rule, sunscreen should be at least SPF 30 and should provide broad-spectrum – meaning UVA and UVB – coverage. I also prefer sunscreens that are mineralbased. The Villager: What does it mean to

The Villager: Let’s talk about sunscreen safety. It seems this is an area of controversy. Can you comment on this? Dr. Dawson: Recently there have been questions about the safety of chemical blockers. Some chemical ingredients may cause skin allergies. Others have been suggested to demonstrate hormone-disrupting effects in laboratory studies. In February, the FDA proposed new regulations for sunscreen that would prioritize additional testing and impact sunscreen labeling by requiring that sunscreen active ingredients be listed on the front of packaging. The FDA has designated the mineral blockers, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, as

“generally recognized as safe and effective,”or GRASE. The FDA has indicated that there are insufficient data to give chemical blockers a GRASE designation and has requested further study of these agents. The Villager: Has this impacted your views on sunscreen? Dr. Dawson: I have always been a proponent of mineral blockers because I find them to be less irritating and find the safety data behind them to be compelling. I especially prefer mineralbased sunscreen for children and for pregnant women. That being said, the FDA has not deemed the chemical blockers to be unsafe – they have just stated that there are inadequate data informing their use. Most chemical blockers in the U.S. have a long track record of safety, and I do not think we need to summarily avoid them because the FDA requested more research. There are wonderful sunscreens out there that are formulated with chemical blockers and some patients just do better with these. The Villager: So, what is your favorite sunscreen? Dr. Dawson: My favorite sunscreen, for the face anyways, is MD Solar Sciences Crème Mineral Beauty Balm SPF 50, which is a lightly tinted mineral sunscreen. I also love EltaMD Physical Broad-Spectrum SPF 41. These brands can be purchased in physician offices like ours or online. The Villager: Any last thoughts? Dr. Dawson: No sunscreen will replace good sun habits – seeking shade, avoiding peak sun hours, and wearing hats and long sleeves when possible. Colorado has intense sun and sun protection requires a multifaceted approach with sunscreen as just one part of the equation!

Rockies offense heats up in homestand wins BATTERUP

Western Division. One way to counter Before we get to the the effects of a falterpitching problems, let’s ing starting rotation look at the Rockies hitis to overwhelm your opponent by scoring ters as the weather and double-digit runs as the their bats begin to warm Rockies did in Thursup. The usual suspects lead the way with Nolan day’s game with the BY B.T. GALLOWAY Arenado batting .319 Giants in a 12-11 win, which includes 33 RBI, in Friday’s game with 10 home runs and 22 extra base the Padres with a 12-2 win, and hits. Charlie Blackmon has found in Sunday’s homestand finale his groove in the last two weeks with the Padres in a 10-7 win. Admittedly, this is not a long-term and now sports a .305 average with 25 RBI including 8 home solution to pitching woes but this runs and 24 extra base hits. Trevor time around it kept the Rockies Story’s batting average is .275 in the hunt with 19-21 record, 6.5 but he has accounted for 26 RBI games back of the Dodgers in the

with 9 home runs and 18 extra base hits. oung outfielder Raimel Tapia’s power hitting has moved him into the spotlight. He’s batting .313 with 18 RBI including 8 home runs, 4 triples and 12 doubles. It’s hard to interpret what all these statistics mean as the season progresses. We ask ourselves, “What’s important? Is there a trend here?” I mentioned some performance indicators we can look at in an earlier column. Here’s one we can use to gauge how well the Rockies hitters are doing. It’s called OPS (On-base Plus Slugging). OPS adds on-base

percentage and slugging percentage to get one number. It’s meant to combine how well a hitter can reach base with how well he can hit for average and power. For our purpose, let’s consider performance of .850 or above as special. Currently, Nolan Arenado’s OPS is .957, Charlie Blackmon’s is .941, Trevor Story’s is .853 and Raimel Tapia’s is an impressive .979. Let’s keep an eye the hitters’ OPS as we move forward. And now to the problems with the Rockies starters. Until Jon Gray delivered his 6.0 inning, 3 run perper formance in Saturday night’s disappointing 4-3 loss, the Rockies had not had a quality start (6 innings with 3 runs or less) in 13 games. Happily, Antonio Senzatela delivered another quality start in Sunday’s win. The outlook has been grim. Kyle Freeland has experienced some serious control problems that have left

him with a record of 2 wins and 5 losses and a cringe-worthy ERA of 5.84. German Marquez has been roughed up by the long ball. His ERA is 3.43 but he still has salvaged a record of 4 wins and 2 losses. Jon Gray has a 3 win, 3 loss record. He’s also had too many control lapses which have led to an ERA of 4.25. Finally, Antonio Senzatela’s ERA of 5.35 shows that he’s had his difficulties but his performance on Sunday was encouraging. Consistent quality starts are essential. They were a major factor in the Rockies 90 wins last season. This week the Rockies head to BosBos ton for a two-game series with the Red Sox at Fenway Park. Then they’ll move on to Citizen’s Bank Park for a three-game weekend series with the Eastern DiviDivi sion-leading Phillies. btgalloway@villager publishing.com

Gov signs pair of bills to increase opportunity for Colorado students SUBMITTED BY CO HOUSE DEMS

Gov. Polis signed a pair of bills at Overland High School last week that will increase educational opportunities for students across the state. House Democrats were committed to investing in education this legislative session.

“It was always a priority of my late husband John to help students grow and succeed in their academia. This new law continues his legacy and will help kids realize their full potential.” said Rep. Janet Buckner, D-Aurora. Rep. Buckner’s children and

grandchildren joined the signing ceremony. The bill signing took place at Overland High School where the late John Buckner served as a dedicated school principal for 17 years. The school gymnasium is also named after him.

Rep. Janet Buckner’s bill, SB19-059, creates a pilot program to increase the number of students taking advanced, honor, or accelerated courses. A grant program would be created under the Colorado Department of Education that will provide support for districts
