Push is on for marijuana taxesCapitol rally urges voters to approve 25 percent levyBy Vic [email protected]
Supporters of a retail marijuana tax ini-tiative held a Capitol rally on Sept. 4, urg-ing Colorado voters to back pot sales taxes to ensure that the newly created industry “pays its own way.”
The rally served as a campaign kickoff for Proposition AA, which will ask voters to give the go-ahead for retail pot to be taxed at 25 percent this fall, with the revenue going to-ward school construction and support for industry regulation.
Retail pot sales will soon become a real-ity in the state, thanks to last year’s voter-backed passage of Amendment 64. The Leg-islature passed pot regulations earlier this year, but voters still must decide whether they will support the taxes needed to fund retail marijuana rules.
State Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver, who played a key role in crafting Amendment 64 legislation, said that unless voters back the pot taxes this fall, “we will have to do one of two things: Take money from education and other programs in Colorado to fund this industry, or we’ll have lackluster or lax en-forcement,”
“This campaign kickoff is to acknowl-edge and recognize to the people of Colo-rado that these taxes absolutely must pass,” Pabon said.
Proposition AA will ask voters to approve a 15 percent excise tax and a 10 percent re-tail tax on marijuana sales. Revenue from
the excise tax will go toward public school construction, while the money collected from the retail tax will back the regulations that were enacted by the Legislature.
The 25 percent state tax does not include whatever local taxes might be imposed by individual municipalities.
Brian Vicente, an architect of Amend-ment 64, said the taxes are expected to bring in about $70 million in revenue for the state.
Vicente also reminded voters that only pot-smokers will be required to cough up the tax money.
“This is a tax that really would only ap-ply to people who choose to participate in regulated marijuana,” Vicente said. “Those who do not purchase marijuana will not be subject to this tax.”
Pot tax supporters were asked whether they had concerns that competing tax ques-tions on this year’s ballot could affect the passage of Prop AA — such as Initiative 22, which will ask voters to support more than $900 million in new taxes to overhaul the school finance system.
“I think these issues will rise and fall on their own merits,” said state Sen. Pat Stead-man, D-Denver. “I think our voters are dis-cerning.”
Steadman also said that voters who sup-ported Amendment 64 last November knew that the pot industry would have to be taxed.
Proposition AA supporters also said they were pleased with the federal government’s recent guidance on states that allow legal-ized pot. The Department of Justice issued a memo saying it would not seek to block rec-reational pot sales in states that allow it, so long as the retail pot industry abides by firm state regulations.
State Rep. Jonathan Singer, D-Long-mont, who sponsored the marijuana tax bill that led to Proposition AA, said the Legisla-ture made “very responsible and very nec-essary first steps” in making sure the mari-juana industry abides by a strict set of rules.

Banquet honors community heroesBy Ashley [email protected]
It was an evening of honor and recogni-tion during the Sept. 6 Westminster Public Safety Recognition Foundation, WPSRF, annual awards banquet at the Westin West-minster. Throughout the event, 35 people were recognized for their courage and hero-ism in the acts of public safety in the com-munity of Westminster
Whether it was a police officer, firefight-er, emergency medical technician or a com-munity resident, each story told during the banquet had the common theme of bravery and endurance in a time of need.
“The foundation’s No. 1 goal is to honor

Construction near completion at airportBuffer zone helps for a safe landingBy Amy [email protected]
Rocky Mountain Metro Airport is un-dergoing construction to meet safety stan-dards required by the Federal Aviation Ad-ministration for the airport’s main runway, 11L. The project has proven to be a doozy, requiring the movement of State Highway
128.“We are in the middle of a two-phase
project that is improving safety area to the west of the airport’s primary runway,” said Kenny Maenpa, Metro Airport director.
“Currently the runway safety area is 600 feet in length off the end of the runway, and we require a total of 1000 feet of safety area to meet safety standards of aircraft that are currently operating at Metro Airport,” Mae-npa said.
In the event a plane is not able to stop by the end of the runway, or a plane taking off
does not reach high speeds in order to lift off before the runway ends, the safety area will act as a buffer to help prevent drastic consequences.
The safety area will not be paved but graded flat to prevent a plane from inflict-ing significant damage to the property or to the plane itself.
It is a two-phase project, but the good news is, phase one of the project which includes relocating State Highway 128, is 90-percent complete.
The second phase, which involves re-
moving the existing retaining wall, and building out the safety area or buffer zone will require dirt taken from several sources around the airport, with majority of the earth coming from west of the intersection of Simms Street and State Highway 128.
Officials anticipate the project to be complete by December 2013 with some mi-nor touch-ups in 2014.
“We’re still going to have come back in

communities are safe and that we build better schools.’State Rep. Jonathan Singer

Departing Noonan, Boggs express frustrationsBoard members disappointed with discussion and transparency issuesBy Vic [email protected]
Two Jefferson County school board members who are not seeking re-election this fall blame communication issues and personality conflicts that they feel exist within the body as reasons behind their de-cisions to not seek second terms.
In separate interviews, Jeffco Board of Education directors Paula Noonan and Laura Boggs listed several areas where they felt the board’s work was out of step with the desires of community members.
And Noonan and Boggs blasted their fel-low board members for making them feel as if their voices were being ignored.
“I don’t think I had the support of my other board members,” said Noonan, who represents District 5, which covers the south end of the county.
“I felt that made it very difficult for me to be productive.”
Boggs, a conservative District 2 board member who represents the west and mountain area of the district, echoed Noonan’s concerns.
“Your vote doesn’t count unless it’s in the majority,” she said.
Boggs also said that the board isn’t trans-parent in many policy areas and that the community’s input isn’t being valued.
But Board President Lesley Dahlkemper took issue with those assertions.
“I strongly disagree with the view that we haven’t asked for community input,” she said.
When asked to discuss whether there were any personality conflicts on the five-member board, Dahlkemper opted for the high road.
“As board members, we don’t always see eye to eye,” she said. “But we have pretty rigorous discussions.”
Noonan said that the board is dealing with “many contentious issues right now”; chief among them being inBloom, a stu-dent data collection system aimed at help-ing teachers better personalize instruction.
However, detractors of inBloom — which the district hopes to pilot beginning in the 2014 school year — cite security and
privacy concerns with the new system.Noonan said during the interview that
“the board does not have nearly enough input on the mission of the (inBloom) proj-ect” and that “the community needs to weigh in on that.”
Through a letter that she recently pro-vided to Colorado Community Media, Noonan expressed concerned that parents don’t know enough about inBloom, and neither does the school board.
“Apparently, parents who want to stay out are going to have to leave the district, seek private school, or do homeschooling,” Noonan wrote. “Not great options for par-ents in a public school district.”
Boggs is no fan of inBloom either. And one of her biggest areas of concern over the board’s workings is that there has been “a lack of transparency” on issues like in-Bloom or the district’s teaming with Loud-Cloud Systems to provide an instructional data system.
“Despite the promises of running on transparency, what I saw on the board the last two years was a shutdown of commu-nity conversations,” Boggs said.
That’s just not the case, said Dahlkem-per. The board president points out that the
board has overseen forums on issues like inBloom, student achievement progress, and the annual budget, where community members can become more familiar and more engaged with issues.
Last month, the board held a study ses-sion that included a panel of educational experts from both sides of the inBloom de-bate.
And Dahlkemper points to a recently-adopted community engagement policy, which states that “the board’s policies and decisions should reflect community values, good educational practice and available fi-nancial resources.”
Dahlkemper cites outside praise on is-sues regarding transparency from groups like the Independence Institute and the Center for American Progress.
“To say that we’re failing in transpar-ency and community input is just wrong,” Dahlkemper said.
Voters will decide on three open seats on the board this fall: Boggs’, Noonan’s and District 1 director Robin Johnson’s, who re-cently resigned from the board because she had moved out of the district.
Neither Dahlkemper nor District 3 Jill Fellman is up for re-election this year.
the spring and seed the new slope,” Georgi-ann Dewey, airport development manager said.
“There’s going to be a reinforced soil
slope that is 80 ft. high, so it’s a native land-scape that blends in with the area.”
“Jviation, CH2M Hill, Kelley Trucking, and American Civil Constructors have done an absolutely fabulous job,” Dewey said.

our local heroes. We do that through the awards banquet,” said WPSRF chairwoman Betty Whorton. “The banquet is our way of showing our police officers, firefighters and anyone who has stepped out to help someone else that we appreciate what they have done. It’s our way of saying thank you.”
Of the winners was police officer Cheri Spottke, who was awarded the Westmin-ster Citizen’s Police Academy Alumni Asso-ciation Officer of the Year Award for her in-volvement in the Jessica Ridgeway case. She was the liaison to the Ridgeway family and spent every waking moment with the fam-ily during the tragedy last year. She still con-tinues to support the family and has grown a very close relationship with the Ridgeway family.

“I also understand the importance of having the funding available to make sure that our communities are safe and that we build better schools,” Singer said. “This is not just about making sure that we are pro-tecting our communities, but making sure
that marijuana pays its own way.”The package of Amendment 64 legis-
lation received bipartisan support at the Capitol this year. However, no Republican lawmakers attended the rally.
Pabon said his Republican colleagues are “on the record” with their support, and also noted Republican Attorney General John Suthers’ recent endorsement of the pot tax.
“As we move forward, you’ll be seeing more and more GOP support,” Pabon said.

Burger joint makes first Colorado appearanceBy Ashley [email protected]
Hoping to bring the delicious simplic-ity of burger and fries to Colorado, Kyle and Bryan Messmer opened the very first MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes in the Rocky Mountain state. Opened on Sept. 2, the Westminster fast-casual dining restau-rant is already satisfying burger lovers in the metro area.
“Our first day was phenomenal. We had more people than expected and it’s been steady ever since,” Bryan said. “We just hope to continue to get our staff trained so they can provide the best service and con-tinue to serve up great burgers.”
MOOYAH was founded in 2007. Cur-rently there are locations in Texas, where the franchise began, Alabama, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Kansas, Montana, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Virginia, and now Colorado. Scott Adams, Colorado area de-veloper for MOOYAH Burgers, said the concept of the fast-casual restaurant is to provide made-to-order burgers with fresh ingredients paired with hand-cut French Fries and hand crafted ice cream shakes. He said the menu is simple, but it works successfully.
“We do burgers, fries and shakes, we don’t do salads. We have a very simplified menu, but we do it well,” he said. “We are very family-centric as well and we felt like this concept was missing in the Colorado market.”
MOOYAH Burgers does offer a turkey burger and a veggie burger. Whatever the choice, all burgers are served on buns baked in house.
“It’s not often that a burger place bakes their own buns,” Bryan said. “MOOYAH Burgers is just a great place for people to
come in and get a custom-made burger just the way they like it.”
MOOYAH Burgers is in the Orchard
Town Center at 14697 Delaware St. #875. Hours are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week.

Federal Heights business takes butter to the next levelNow in 20 retail stores, Epicurean Butter continues to spreadBy Ashley [email protected]
In 2004, Janey and John Hubschman came up with the idea of producing and selling compound flavored butters.
They called their endeavor Epicurean Butter, and at the time were the only retailer to take simple butter and spice it up. Now the couple’s butter is sold in over 20 retail stores across the country including Whole Foods and most recently, Sprouts.
And this delectable product is created right here in Federal Heights.
“A light bulb just kind of went off. We were looking for a business and with my background in restaurants I noticed there wasn’t a retail flavored butter product,” John said. “In restaurants they make is as a matter of course every day, but there wasn’t a product out there on the marker for the public, so we decided to start our own com-pany.”
Janey and John moved Epicurean But-ter into their Federal Heights building at 9355 Elm Court in January 2011. Every week
the couple is busy making and packaging 15 different butter flavors, with the help of their four-person production team Rosa Morales, Jessica Bermejo, Leopoldo Villegas and Renato Alvarez, who have all been with the couple from the beginning. With experi-ence as a chef in fine dining, John created each flavor and continues to create new fla-vors for custom orders.
He gets his compound butter and freshly frozen herbs from California and his spices from Denver-based Rocky Mountain Spice Company.
But with creative juices flowing, it’s sometimes hard to keep those at bay.
“We are really trying to stick with the fla-vors we have. But sometimes it’s a struggle because John is so creative,” Janey said. “Over nine years we introduced and deleted so many flavors, so we are trying to just find more retailers to sell to.”
There are savory and sweet Epicurean Butter flavors, like roasted garlic herb, the most popular, and caramel sea salt. With a variety of flavors, Janey said she hopes their product provides people the opportunity to have restaurant-quality meals in their own homes.
And although their flavored butters are shipped to places all over the country, see-ing their product on the shelves in a grocery store never gets old.
“It’s really nice to know you have created something that can stand the test of time be and to be able to walk into a grocery store and see something we created is a very sat-isfying feeling,” John said.
“Especially when you travel far away, like
to Maryland, and you see your product in the grocery story,” John said. “That’s when it really hits you.”

District 50 continues improvement in state assessment tests By Sta� report
The latest round of TCAP results show continuing
academic improvement in District 50, which was the only metro district to show increases in student pro-
fi ciency in math, reading and writing for three con-secutive years. During the same three year period, the number of students testing at the unsatisfactory level dropped in all three subject matters.
Formal individual school and district ratings won’t be released by The Colorado Department of Education until December, but early data indicates that West-minster High School, Shaw Heights Middle School, Hodgkins Elementary and Metz Elementary will move
from “Priority Improve-ment” to “Improvement” categories and Tennyson Knolls Elementary will move from “Improvement” to “Performance.”
“The numbers and trend lines are encouraging and a refl ection of our focus on rigor and accountability, but we still have a lot of work in front of us,” said Superin-tendent Pamela Swanson.
In results released Aug. 14, the district showed im-provement on 19 of the 27 testing categories for stu-dents across all grade lev-
els. In addition, the scores, which also measure student growth over time, showed that for the fi rst time “at-risk” students showed a higher growth rate than the student population as a whole.
“That is signifi cant,” said Oliver Grenham, chief edu-cation offi cer. “It shows that we are making real progress with our most challeng-ing students and our com-mitment to competency for all students is paying dividends.” Last year Dis-trict 50 also made signifi -
cant improvements when the district moved from a “Turnaround District” to a “Priority Improvement Dis-trict”.
The district now has two years to move from the “Pri-ority Improvement” catego-ry into either the “Improve-ment” or an accredited level like “Performance.”
“Our trend of improve-ment is continuing,” Gren-ham said. “But given where we are with our achieve-ment, we know we have to go above and beyond to get above the state average.”
Assembly celebrates science, new digital textbooks By Ashley Reimers [email protected]
Whether it was an eruption of Diet Coke into the air caused by the mixture of Mentos, or the creation of an electric current, students in Thornton had a new outlook on science Sept. 5.
“I used to not like science, but after the assembly I’m starting to like it,” said eighth-grade partici-pant Justyce Meeks. “Being able to be a part of learning science in a physical way is really fun, instead of just listening to someone talk about it.”
The STEM Launch school as-sembly was made possible by the Mortgridge Family Foundation and Discovery Education and featured interactive activities il-lustrating science concepts con-nected to everyday life. Lead by Discovery Education scientist Pat-ti Duncan, students in grades 5-8 were entertained by the subject of science learning that science can be cool and exciting.
Duncan stressed to students the importance of being making
observations and asking ques-tions in and out of the classroom.
“To be good science students, you always have to be watching
and asking questions,” she said. “You should be thinking about why something works, how some-thing works and what it affects.”
The assembly was a celebra-tion of a new textbook program students are using this year made possible through funding from the
Mortgridge Family Foundation. Instead of traditional pa-
per textbooks, students are us-ing Discovery Education’s digital science textbook series, which brings learning to life through au-dio, video, interactive text, digital simulations, virtual and hands-on labs and an interactive glos-sary with animations. The series also includes model lessons and continually updated assessment component.
STEM Launch principal Kel-lie Lauth said the digital textbook series is the primary science re-source and will be used by stu-dents every day in school and also at home.
She said the students now have a one-on-one tool through the digital textbooks.
“Students have access to so many resources now like inter-views and video,” she said. “Stu-dents can even interact with ex-perts. And another great part is the fact that the textbooks are up-dated all the time.”
The digital program also offers teachers full support for profes-sional development.

A cappella music hits the stage for fundraiser Mesa Elementary hoping to hit a high note for funding By Ashley Reimers [email protected]
Thinking outside of the box, stu-dents and staff at Mesa Elementary School in Westminster are hoping some live music will help raise money for their school. The school is hosting a concert featuring Face Vocal Band, a nationally-known a cappella group in an effort to bring in some money for after school programs.
“We were talking about different ways to raise money for our school, and we really wanted to do something different and fun,” said Mesa teacher Christa Conrad. “Some of the things we have done in the past weren’t working too well, so we decided to try something totally new, like a concert.”
Currently at Mesa, there are no after school programs, other than tutoring funded by a federal grant. Conrad said all of the money raised by the concert on Sept. 20 at Westmin-ster High School will go toward after school enrichment programs. She said the programs will provide students an opportunity to learn something that they normally may not learn in the classroom.
“One program, for example could be an art club or a chess club. Just something that expands the opportu-nity for learning,” she said.
As for hooking up with Face, that was easy. Face member Stephen Ross is married to Jenny Ross, a Mesa teach-
er. Once the group was approached by Jenny about the concert the decision was an easy one. Face member Ryan Driver said the group is always up for helping out a local elementary school. He said not only is the group excited to help raise money for the school, but to also expose their style of music to the community.
“It’s hard to explain our sound, but we call ourselves a vocal rock band,” Driver said. “We do a lot of contem-porary stuff, rock and pop music. And once people see us, they usually come back.”
Face is not the stereotypical bar-ber shop quartet that many people imagine when they think of a cappella music. Driver describes a cappella as a broad genre of music that is extremely
fl exible because the human voice is the most dynamic instrument. Using the human voice, a person can make it sound like just about anything with some practice, he added.
“The band is a big family and we bring that connection to the stage when we perform,” Driver said. “When people can see our connection and begin to understand what we are really about is the coolest part.”
The concert begins at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 20, at Westminster High School, 6933 Raleigh St. in Westminster. Tick-ets are $10 and can be purchased online at www.seatyourself.biz/mesa. Opening up for Face is WHS’s own a cappella group Raging Harmonies. For more information on FACE, visit www.facevocalband.com.

Workshop focuses on telework programsBy Ashley [email protected]
In an effort to educate business own-ers, 36 Commuting Solutions and Boulder Transportations Connections are host-ing a workshop focused on implementing telework programs in the workplace. The free workshop will touch on the benefits of a telework program and tips on how to make the program successful in any busi-ness size. The workshop is from 8-10 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 19, at the Boulder County Clerk and Recorders Office in the Charlotte Houston Room at 1750 33rd St. in Boulder.
Leading the workshop is telework ex-pert Stuart Anderson who will discuss the tools needed to develop a successful tele-work program. He will discuss the pros and cons of teleworking.
Teleworking is defined as extending the
workplace beyond the traditional office. Anderson said in recent years, teleworking one to two days a week has significantly in-creased in many businesses.
But in terms of full-time teleworking, Stuart said that number has not increased over the years. He said in most cases part-time teleworking is the most successful program.
“Teleworking is a management prerog-ative and replaces business-related trips,” he said. “It’s not always a full-time arraign-ment or a situation where employers send their employees home and they never see them again.”
Stuart said many employers are now realizing that teleworking and having the flexibility of working from home is some-thing that talented individuals expect from their employer and those employers who don’t implement a program may end up
losing those talented potential employees. He said the biggest pros to teleworking are profitability and a 10-20 percent increase in productivity.
“When people telework they can be more efficient and have fewer disrup-tions,” he said. “These individuals work-ing from home tend to be more organized because they have the ability to plan their day accordingly.”
Stuart said the most important thing, which he will be stressing in the work-shop, is the importance of implementing an actual telework program in the busi-ness. That way employees who do telework know the guidelines of the program and employees who don’t telework understand the impacts of the other employees being out of the office and how that affects them, he added.
“Many times people left in the office are
greatly impacted by those working from home because those in the office have to deal with emergencies that pop up,” Stuart said. “But if a telework program is in place, employees at the office have an under-standing that dealing with those types of emergencies are part of their job descrip-tion and they don’t feel negatively about it or ignored by their employer.”
Stuart will also present telework pro-gram success stories, the cost of a pro-gram, eligibility factors in employees, de-velopment in program policies and much more.
To RSVP for the workshop call 303-997-5155 or email [email protected]. US 36 area business will also be eli-gible to receive up to $2,500 for financial assistance to establish a new telework program, including hardware, software or policy development.
Adams County resident dies of West Nile virus96 human cases of virus in ColoradoBy Tammy [email protected]
A 53-year-old Adams County died Aug. 27 from West Nile virus, reported the Tri-County Health Department last week.
“This is the first confirmed death in the metro Denver area in 2013,” said Gary Sky, public information officer with Tri-County in an email. “The first Colorado West Nile virus death this year occurred in Weld
County, on Aug. 25. As of Sept. 2, there have been 96 confirmed human cases of West Nile virus in Colorado.”
West Nile is a disease that can cause en-cephalitis, a brain inflammation, paralysis and meningitis and is spread by mosqui-toes.
According to the Center for Disease Con-trol and Prevention, less than 1 percent of infected people develop serious, some-times fatal, neurologic illness.
Tom Butts, acting executive director of Tri-County said that mosquito activity will subside when the weather turns cold, but recent rains and hot weather have in-creased the number of breeding mosqui-
toes in the area.“West Nile virus is preventable by pro-
tecting yourself against mosquito bites,” he said.
“By avoiding outdoor exposure when mosquitoes are active, wearing protec-tive clothing, and applying insect repellent whenever you are outdoors — whether in the backwoods or in your own back yard. The vast majority of people who get West Nile virus are bitten by infected mosquitoes around their own home, not while on an outdoor adventure.”
Tri-County Health Department offered the following tips for mosquito precau-tion: drain all standing water around the
house to eliminate any mosquito-breeding sites - this includes flowerpots and saucers, clogged rain gutters and wheelbarrows; dress in long-sleeved shirts, long pants, shoes and socks; use mosquito repellents that contain DEET or picaridin while out-doors and avoid outdoor activities at dusk and dawn when mosquitoes are most active Tri-County also suggests to clean out pet water bowls daily and to hose out birdbaths and wading pools weekly.
Symptoms of a severe illness, which occur 3 to 14 days after exposure, are headache, high fever, neck stiffness, dis-orientation, tremors, muscle weakness or convulsions.

Transit incentive program offers prizes for bus rides on US 36
36 Commuting Solutions is sweetening the pot when it comes to their popular 36 Prize Riders transit incentive program. For every two people a participant refers, they will receive a $50 gift card. 36 Prize Riders runs July 22 to Sept. 13 and offers partici-pants the chance to win weekly prizes, including a cruiser bike, iPad Mini and more simply by riding the bus and logging their trips.
The more participants ride transit, the better their chances of winning. The 36 Prize Riders program is jointly funded
by 36 Commuting Solutions and a Fed-eral Highway Administration Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality grant. For more information on 36 Prize Riders, please visit www.36prizeriders.org, or email [email protected].
Infrastructure fee increase pays for mainte-nance needs
Westminster residents will see an increase in the monthly infrastructure fee on their utility bills beginning in 2014. The $1 per month, $12 per year, increase goes to pay for needed maintenance for streets, curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lights.
There is a similar increase of $1 per month that will begin in 2015, which will bring the fee to $6 per month from its current $4 per month. The infrastructure fee helps pay for ongoing maintenance to repair curbs, gut-ters and sidewalks that are deteriorating. Each dollar in the fee raises about $360,000 annually. This helps offset more than $1 million in annual spending to maintain curbs, gutters and sidewalks in our com-munity.

District 50 continues improvement in state assessment testscant improvements when the district moved from a “Turnaround District” to a “Priority Improvement Dis-trict”.
The district now has two years to move from the “Pri-ority Improvement” catego-ry into either the “Improve-ment” or an accredited level like “Performance.”
“Our trend of improve-ment is continuing,” Gren-ham said. “But given where we are with our achieve-ment, we know we have to go above and beyond to get above the state average.”
6-Opinion
And then there were threeFor months we’ve been led to believe
that Westminster councilors Herb Atchi-son, Bob Briggs, Mary Lindsey and Scott Major would be the candidates for Mayor of Westminster.
In fact last week the city clerk and the election commission held a drawing to determine their placement on the ballot. Now maybe you didn’t think ballot place-ment mattered.
Folks, it matters a great deal. Good top line placement can give that candidate about a 10 percent edge.
Back in the DayBack in the day when city elections were
by precinct and there were no mail-in-bal-lots, candidates campaigned right up until Election Day and precinct voting could foretell with some degree of accuracy how the vote would come out.
But then came those pesky main-in-bal-lots and it has thrown elections today into a holding pattern for several weeks prior to Election Day. Now by the end of August the city clerk has closed the window for candi-dates, and the next process was the ballot placement which took place already.
A bombshellWell, to try to make a long story short,
we all assumed the ballot would be printed with the four city councilor’s names as candidates.
However, last Friday night at a city din-ner, Scott Major announced he was drop-ping out for “health reasons.” And that, dear readers, throws the whole process in disarray when it comes to ballot place-ment.
I’ve tried in vain to get someone who is a legal authority to determine if the name just gets dropped from the mail-in-ballot or will a new drawing take place. Obvious-ly, some candidates for mayor and three council seats who got bad placement in the previous drawing would like to draw over.
Then late Monday, I received word that Westminster had decided that major’s name would be removed from the ballots, and everyone below him would move up one space.
How it is nowIf the status quo prevails, here’s how the
ballot will look for both Adams and Jeffer-son Counties in the Westminster portion of those counties.
Adams CountyFor Mayor: 1. Mary Lindsey 2. Herb
Atchison 3. Bob BriggsCity portion of Jefferson CountyFor Mayor: 1. Bob Briggs 2. Herb Atchi-
son 3. Mary LindseyThree openings for city councilor candi-
dates in Adams County:1. A.J. Elserougi 2. Emma Pinter 3. Su-
zanne Ramirez 4. David DeMott 5. Alberto Garcia 6. Debbie Bergamo 7. C. Michael Litzau 8. Bruce Baker
In Jefferson County portion of Westmin-ster:
1. Michael Litzau 2. Alberto Garcia 3. Bruce Baker 4. Emma Pinter 5. Suzanne Ramirez 6. Debbie Bergamo 7. A.J. Else-rougi 8. David DeMott
So there you have it.For a while there was a real undercur-
rent that the political Democrats and Re-publican parties are heavily involved. But now the interest will be on that vacancy for mayor. Next week we’ll delve into the District 50 mill levy override and the lack of competition for the two school board seats.
P.P.S. You should get your ballot in the mail by October 13-15.
Stay well, stay involved and stay tuned.

opinions / yours and ours
Finding clarity on pot a taxing processMore than 10 months after Colorado
voters approved the legalization of recre-ational marijuana use and sales, confusion reigns.
Sure, passage of Amendment 64 last November made a few things clear: Pos-session of up to 1 ounce is legal. People under 21 years of age may not purchase pot. It remains illegal to smoke marijuana in public places.
But a couple of the most basic questions still need to be answered: Where can one legally buy it? How much will it cost?
The first question is being explored by Colorado’s cities and counties. At this point, few Denver-area municipalities have opted to make retail sales legal, instead taking a cautious, wait-and-see approach. Some — like unincorporated Jefferson County — have already decided to out-right ban retail sales. It’s possible most of
Colorado could follow suit, leaving the state with a handful of “marijuana islands” where pot is legally sold.
The cost question is largely in the hands of the state’s voters. On top of whatever price point the marijuana market dictates, there will be taxes, and in Colorado, that means voter approval is needed.
A recent rally at the Capitol in Denver urged approval of a 15 percent excise tax and a 10 percent sales tax on the retail marijuana industry. If the state’s voters ap-prove Proposition AA in November, money from the taxes would reportedly go toward
school construction and regulation of the marijuana industry.
In general, we support approval of this proposition. It helps ensure the mari-juana industry will pay for itself, and helps schools, to boot. But we do wonder if too many taxes could lead pot customers to turn back to the black market.
The 25 percent statewide tax from Proposition AA would be in addition to whatever taxes local municipalities’ voters approve.
Denver, for example, is asking residents to say yes to a 5 percent tax. The total tax toll of 30 percent could lead to an unaf-fordable product in what figures to be the state’s largest marijuana-selling zone.
Having customers once again turn to the dealer down the street would be a clear example of the law of unintended conse-quences. But we feel taxes may be the only
way to keep the retail pot business from being a burden on Colorado, something the medical marijuana industry has been over the last few years. The state will have to bank on people’s willingness to pay the price for legality.
Even after the issues of where to buy and how much it will cost are officially answered, there will remain plenty of gray areas. For example, many people are uncertain if they will get fired from their jobs if they partake. Others aren’t clear on how much they can smoke and still legally drive.
Truth be told, it may take years — and more than a few legal challenges — before all the answers are in. But this November’s election and the actions of local govern-ments in the months to follow should add important measures of clarity amid the lingering cloud of confusion.

What are you looking forward to with the changing weather?
On a sizzling hot Saturday, we went to the Westminster Promenade to ask some folks, now that the end of summer is in sight what are you looking forward to doing as the weather cools?
“Ski, I can’t wait for it to snow.”
Olivia Maddox, Westminster
“Football! Maybe going to some games.”
Joel Lutz, Westminster
“Skiing for sure. We’re new to this side of the mountains, but traditionally we’d go to Powderhorn near Grand Junction.”
David Etter, Loveland
“This is my first winter in Colorado. I’m looking forward to it not being so hot, but I’m not look-ing forward to driving in the snow.”

Dealing with your heart breakingWhat do you do once your heart
breaks?And not the sort of heartbreak that
Taylor Swift writes songs about every couple months. I’m talking about the sort of profound, existential heartbreak that makes you wonder if the human race is worth saving.
What do you do with the story of Anthony? Anthony is a little boy stuck in Colorado’s foster care system. One week last summer, he went to Royal Family Kids Camp, a special camp up in the mountains for kids in the foster system, and he had a really good week. Until he came “home” and found out that his foster parents had given him up during that week and his next stop was a group home.
What do you do with boys like James? Or was it Addison? I’m not sure I ever heard it right. Doesn’t matter — we even-tually were calling him “Cinderella.” This is a young man, slightly older than my own son, who my family saw last weekend as
we were having a great time at Adventure Golf and Raceway (which, by the way, is an exceptionally good family outing!). The problem of Cinderella, which became a problem for us, was that he was out “having a good time” with his mother and two older sisters, and he was the constant object of scorn and ridicule. We heard, on one occasion, mom say loud enough for everybody within 20 feet “are you a retard or something?” We also saw, later, the fam-ily sitting around a picnic table with four ice cream cones — one for each sister, and
two for mom. Cinderella, understandably, looked miserable.
What do you do with the pictures coming out of Syria? No, not the one CNN decided to run with that was actually from Iraq in 2003 (“major media” credibility, anyone?), but the ones that show the bod-ies lined up, side by side, mothers next to children, whole families, an entire suburb. 1,400 dead, the victims of a Sarin gas at-tack, possibly by their own government.
In each of these situations, the instant reaction is to want to step in. It takes a few minutes to realize that an instant reaction to a broken and bleeding heart might, in the long run, be absolutely the worst thing you could do.
With Anthony, what? Give him another temporary home, only to have to eventual-ly put him back into the system, one more betrayal wiser? And what happens to Cin-derella when he gets home if somebody tries to step in out in public? And the long-term consequences of Syrian intervention
are impossible to predict, but among the possibilities is certainly a regional, if not a world, war. Being a man of Faith, of course my recourse is always prayer. But that somehow seems inadequate — so lacking in the “instant gratification” department. I want to “do” something!
And then I grudgingly acknowledge that the best — maybe the only — thing I can do is just hug my own children, laugh with them and make sure they feel loved. Changing the foster system is going to take time and legislative focus, and fixing the middle east is ... well, a bit of a bigger fish. But, gosh, wouldn’t this all be easier if everybody just loved their children more than they love control, or their habits, or their lifestyle, or their power?

Self-care is key for students embarking on new stageThe state health department has con-
firmed what no one in the mental health services and suicide prevention fields want to see: that suicide rates have risen to an historic high in the past year.
In 2012, 1,053 Coloradoans completed suicide, representing a rate of 19.7 per 100,000 people, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environ-ment’s recent report. That’s the highest number in Colorado history and a 15.8 per-cent increase from 2011. Our state has one of the highest suicide rates in the nation.
As Coloradoans, we clearly need to get ourselves educated: We need to learn how to assess for suicide risk and get comfort-able talking about – asking about – wheth-er a loved one, a friend, a colleague or a student is having suicidal thoughts.
We can do this by attending a Mental Health First Aid class, which are offered free or at a nominal cost at mental-health centers throughout the Denver area. For example, Community Reach Center offers free Mental Health First Aid courses in Adams County (find class dates by visit-ing www.CommunityReachCenter.org; a comprehensive list of Denver-area classes is available at the Mental Health First Aid Colorado website: www.mhfaco.org). In the past few months, a youth module has be-come available that addresses adolescent mental health concerns.
How might we help our college stu-dents, in particular? Suicide is the second leading cause of death among college students in this country, according to the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center in Balti-more, Md., which reports that more than 1,000 deaths by suicide occur in this age group each year.
Young college students face particu-larly strong stressors, which may include a physical separation from family, perhaps for the first time; moving far from home; living in a strange, new environment; learning new classroom and study prac-tices; working to pay the bills; and making new friendships. Their sleep, exercise and eating patterns may change as they navi-gate college life. Additionally, a pre-existing mental health concern, such as depression or anxiety, can exasperate these stressors.
If you or a loved one is heading off to college, please take note of the following self-care tips: First, stay in touch.
“Continue to reach out to your loved ones even if they’re far away,” says Katrina
Buttner, MS, an adolescent therapist at Community Reach Center’s Commerce City office. “Family is only a phone call away.”
Also develop new support systems among the students and professors at your college, she advises, and get oriented to your new surroundings as soon as you can: Know the campus, the city and the re-sources that can support you, from a cozy café to the campus counseling center.
“It gives you a better chance of feeling comfortable in your new surroundings,” says Buttner.
Stay active, beyond going to classes and studying. Keep up with your personal interests in addition to your studies; join a campus club. Volunteering at a food bank or other non-profit may help alleviate col-lege stress, too.
“Doing for others gives us a sense of fulfillment and purpose,” says Buttner.
And take time for yourself. College isn’t only about studying and making the grade.
“If you’re really social, you might be always on the go, always trying to meet people and do new things,” says Buttner. “But sometimes you need to take space for yourself – outside of academics. You need to be able to do something fun by your-self.”
Erica Eliassen, MA, a mental health clinician with Community Reach Center, recommends other self-care practices, such as regular exercise and journaling your feelings, which are healthy outlets for stress and anxiety.
“Don’t keep your emotions bottled up,” says Eliassen, who works with youth at the Adams County juvenile detention center in Brighton.
“Physical exercise helps people get their minds off all the stressors in their lives,” Eliassen says. “And writing about it – get-ting it on paper and leaving it there – it can really help, too.”
Make small goals and take small steps.
College is new. Be gentle on yourself. Prac-tice positive self-talk. If you do become overwhelmed by stress or anxiety, reach out to a professor or visit your school’s counseling center.
“Seek professional help when you know you’re not feeling like yourself or if differ-ent areas of your life – or life in general – are feeling out of control,” says Buttner. “If your mood goes down in the dumps for a period of time, if you have risky behav-iors you can’t seem to stop or if you have a past history of mental health concerns or a genetic predisposition to a mental health problem … even if it feels trivial to you, just go talk with a professional.”
That’s good advice that all of us can keep in mind as we practice healthy self-care.
Finally, if you or someone you know is in crisis, please contact the Suicide Preven-
tion Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), where help is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
This week marks National Suicide Prevention Week and Sept. 10 was Inter-national Suicide Prevention Day. To learn more about statewide and local suicide prevention programs and events, visit the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Colorado website. For more support, visit the Carson J. Spencer Foundation online, including its Man Therapy site, www.mantherapy.org.

Brenner’s loss is others’ gain
Bob Brenner, the “Extreme Weight Loss” record breaker on the hit ABC television series, was so transformed by his experience on the show that he has announced plans to become a certified life coach to help others realize weight loss success.
To achieve his life coach certification, Brenner is partnering with the Colorado-based school Coach Training Alliance to become a credentialed coach. He is expected to earn his life coach certification in November.
During his yearlong journey on “Ex-treme Weight Loss” season three (season four is being filmed at the University of Colorado’s Anschutz Health and Well-ness Center in Aurora), Brenner lost a record 253 pounds — or 56 percent of his body weight — through a commitment to healthy eating, regular exercise and mental perseverance.
His next extreme transformation is a total career makeover — going from Milwaukee undercover cop to national life coach. Brenner also remains good friends with “Extreme Weight Loss” host Chris Powell. Both guys were in Denver the first weekend in September.
Show makes a moveChinook Tavern, 6380 S. Fiddlers Green
Circle in the Regis University building in Greenwood Village off I-25 and Arapahoe, is the new venue for this year’s edition of “The John Fox Show,” which airs at 6:30 p.m. Wednesdays on 7News.
On the first show (Fox appeared via a taped interview because of the season opener against the Ravens), Broncos Ring-of-Famer and all-time leading wide receiver Rod Smith joined 7Sports anchor Lionel Bienvenu live from the restaurant.
Each week, different football guests will join Bienvenu and fans will have the op-portunity to be a part of the live show.
“Everybody knows the Broncos have an incredible hold on the heart of our city, and this is an exciting way for Chinook and our guests to go `inside the huddle’ this sea-son, which could be a very memorable one for Broncos fans,” said Clemens Georg, Chinook general manager.
Valley girls and guys?Colorado is fast encroaching on Silicon
Valley’s crown as the king of incubators for tech startup companies, according to en-trepreneur.com (www.entrepreneur.com/article/227829).
According to the story posted Aug. 14, “Four of the top 10 metro regions in the U.S. with the most tech startups are in Colorado: Boulder, Fort Collins-Loveland, Denver and Colorado Springs. That’s ac-cording to a report released (recently) by technology policy coalition engine and entrepreneurship research association the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.”
The research defines high-tech startups as “new businesses with a concentration of employees in the fields of science, technol-ogy, engineering and math.”
Here’s how Colorado cities stacked up: 1. Boulder; 2. Fort Collins-Loveland; 3. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif. (aka Silicon Valley); 4. Cambridge-New-Fram-ingham, Mass.; 5. Seattle; 6. Denver; 7. San Francisco; 8. Washington-Arlington-Alex-andria, D.C.-Va.-Md.; 9. Colorado Springs; 10. Cheyenne, Wyo.

Favorite character helps Playhouse start 78th seasonBy Clarke [email protected]
The people at Arvada’s Festival Playhouse know Opal Kro-nkie well.
The central figure of seven of John Patrick’s plays, the bag lady who lives on the edge of the municipal town
dump has been delighting audiences at the theater for years, and now she’s kicking off its 78th year of production.
“Opal’s Million Dollar Duck” will be on stage at the Festival Playhouse, 5665 Olde Wadsworth Blvd., Sept. 13-22. Showtimes are 7:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays.
“The audience really, really likes her,” said Charley Ault, Play-house owner and director of the show. “She’s really withstood the test of time, and we like to do a little more obscure plays because we’ve been doing this for so long.”
“Opal’s Million Dollar Duck” was the last Opal play Patrick wrote, and is full of his own homespun philosophies, and funny one-liners, tinged with a bit of bitterness.
In this outing Opal (Donna Ault) comes across an odd painting of a duck in the garbage, and decides to sell it at her antique junk shop. When her best friend Rosie (Karen Johnston) comes call-ing, reminding Opal that her birthday is coming up, she decides to make it a gift for Rosie. Enter Queenie (Lindsay Griebler) and Desmond (Dennis Leach), “stars” of a local summer-stock com-pany. They’re visiting on the hunt for costumes, stage props and any other materials to use in their productions, when they come
across the painting.Having just read that the town’s museum ac-
cidentally threw away a priceless painting of a duck, they put two and two together, and try to hoodwink Opal out of the painting.
“She’s able to see through them, not because she’s the brightest person, but because of her kindness,” Donna said. “She’s a very, very loving person, and sees no bad in anyone.”
Donna has played Opal around four or five times, and is able to quote some of Opal’s own brand of wisdom on a dime. She said at this point she’s got her portrayal of Opal down, and it’s pretty easy for her to slip into character.
The show is made up of familiar faces on all counts — all of the actors have been working with the playhouse for at least three years, and in some cases, more than 40.
“We’re really lucky to have actors who have experience here. As a director, I’m really able to just let them do their own thing,” Charley said. “I really like my actors to reach into their own experiences for the characters.”
Both Charley and Donna credit the words and idea Patrick imbibed Opal with as the fea-ture that keeps people returning to see her.
“Patrick really wrote a lot about these down and out people,” Charley said. “The philosophies he gave her are just as pertinent now as when they were written.”
For Donna, it comes down to a simple fact.“People remember Opal.”

Public should step up, foster state programs I sat in on Aug. 13 Division of Parks &
Wildlife Northeast Sportsmen’s Round Table, held at the Division Wildlife offi ces at 6060 Broadway. The Sportsmen’s Round Tables are designed to bring the hunting and fi shing fraternity in to share infor-mation with state wildlife professionals. The State Wildlife areas open access for hunting and fi shing; the Walk-In Areas in Eastern Colorado have expanded the ac-cess for upland bird hunting and the long standing state parks program is a very popular access program that thousands of families enjoy each year, and year-round.
The state has stepped up to provide public access to land and waters previous-ly inaccessible and the parks and wildlife staff has established and encouraged timely and open communications be-tween the state and the sportsmen. What have we done to foster and build on these
state programs? Unfortunately maybe less than we should.
The Aug. 13 Sportsmen’s Round Table public meeting which had broad press coverage drew only 13 people from the public as compared to eight Parks and Wildlife staffers present.
Not all of the round table board mem-bers were present. There certainly was a woeful lack of fi shermen, hunters, hikers,
bird watches and others with an outdoors interest.
We are seeing a nationwide infl uence by those who oppose, and very success-fully, the age-old role of hunting and fi shing in wildlife management. A recent example occurred in Michigan where a national anti-hunting organization, well-funded, sent their people and bank roles into the state to circulate petitions and generate support for overturning a long standing dove hunting season. The sports-men there laid back and wildlife support groups were less than serious and aggres-sive in countering the out of state national group of anti-hunting offensive.
The election resulted in a majority of the Michigan citizens voting to repeal the long standing dove hunting season. Con-sidering Michigan is known as one of the nation’s predominate states with favorable
habitat for wildlife and fi sh and a larger than average number of sportsmen, the election results were a surprise.
If you “google” the Internet you will fi nd an alarming number of similar successes by the anti-hunting and anti-fi shing organizations slowing limiting or literally eliminating hunting and fi shing opportunities.
It is time sportsmen get involved, get informed and become activist for hunting and fi shing. I wonder, isn’t it very possible that the estimated 5,000 plus people who attended the grand opening of Thornton’s Cabela’s store on Aug. 15 may want to be equally active and focused in support-ing and protecting hunting and fi shing in Colorado?

Blood, feathers at an Invesco Field crime sceneSeveral major crimes occurred at Den-
ver’s Invesco Field at Mile High on Sept. 5.Seriously, did anyone happen to get
the license plate number of the Well-Oiled Orange Machine that ran over 12 members of the Baltimore Ravens defense last week?
All I saw was the number 18 and the rest was just a blur — it all happened so fast.
And did anyone get a good look at the 12 guys who mercilessly pummeled Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco for much of the game? Poor Joe never saw it coming, even the monster-sized version of Flacco that audaciously hung outside of Denver’s stadium.
The Broncos-Ravens NFL opener was a beat-down of criminal proportions. For Denver, it was personal; an old-fashioned revenge-fueled hammering that made their fans forget all about January’s disastrous … OK, no need to bring all that up again.
Seriously, though. The Broncos Orange-Crushed Baltimore. Threats of lightning
may have delayed the start of the game, but the Birds ended up leaving Denver thunderstruck.
It was a Grateful Dead lyric in reverse: “If the lightning don’t get you, then the thunder will.”
The Broncos pounded the defending Super Bowl champions behind Peyton Manning’s seven — yes, seven — touch-down passes. It’s a feat that hasn’t hap-pened in real life since 1969 and it’s one that’s usually only seen these days with
game console controllers in hand.Oh, and that pounding noise you heard
in the third quarter didn’t come from storm clouds; it was the sound of every fantasy football leaguer in the country galloping to their laptops, in hopes of adding tight end Julius Thomas to their rosters.
And Denver’s defense played well without injured cornerback Champ Bailey and linebacker Von Miller, who is serving a six-game suspension.
The Broncos sacked Flacco four times and picked him off twice, while holding him to a pedestrian 69 passer rating. The Denver “D” also held Ray Rice to just 36 yards on the ground.
The clobbering of the Ravens helped fans to exorcise a heck of a lot of demons, Linda Blair-style. The demons stemmed from Denver’s historically abysmal record against Baltimore teams over the years, but they haunt Broncos fans primarily because of January’s playoff — OK, no need to bring
all that up again.I know, it was just one game. Manning
isn’t going to throw seven TDs every week. And let’s not forget that the Denver defense looked pretty darn good for much of last year’s regular season — at least until … OK, no need to bring all that up again.
But for now, let’s all just sit back and continue to bask in last week’s beat-down.
And I won’t be lending any help with the criminal investigation into what happened at Invesco Field, where a murder of crows was annihilated.
Oh, sure. I witnessed everything. But I won’t be feeling guilty for not stepping forward.
“I didn’t see nothin’.”

‘The World’s End’ not the end for � lm pals Pegg, Frost By Tim Lammers
The great thing about the sci-fi comedy
“The World’s End” is by the time the third fi lm in Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright’s “Cornetto Trilogy” wraps up, we re-alize that the “End” is hardly the end at all.
In fact, like the trio’s previous fi lms “Shaun of the Dead” and “Hot Fuzz,” the real buzzing about “The World’s End” truly begins after the curtains close, when you try to digest the head-spinning hilarity that consumed you for the past 109 minutes. Like the two fi lms that preceded it, there’s no question “The World’s End” is a think-ing person’s comedy, and as Pegg and Frost told me in a recent interview, the privilege of getting the opportunity to entertain au-diences is something that they don’t take lightly.
“It’s important to us that people talk about the fi lms while in their cars on the way home, because if you make a fi lm that winds up in such a way that you forget it before you’ve validated your parking, then you haven’t done the audience any favors,” Pegg said. “The thing that we love the most is when people the next day after seeing the fi lm, say, ‘Hey, I was thinking about the movie,’ and that for us is hugely important, because we don’t want to leave without something to talk about and think about. It’s the best you can do as an artist, if I can be so lofty, is to make people think.”
In “The World’s End,” director Wright and his co-writer, Pegg, have thought up a doozy.
After a prologue about their wild youth together, the fi lm fi nds Gary King, aka The King (Pegg), an over-grown-up teenager re-assembling his best mates — Andy (Frost), Oliver (Martin Freeman), Pete (Eddie Mar-san) and Steven (Paddy Considine) — to once again attempt a run at “The Golden Mile” in the English town of Newton Haven. It’s a legendary pub crawl of 12 brew houses in the friends’ home town that they failed to complete at the end of their school days 20 years before. The last stop on the crawl is a pub called The World’s End, but it’s not long before the fi ve friends discover that there’s something a bit off about the residents of the place they used to call home, and com-pleting their drunken run is the least of their worries. In fact, they come to discover that The World’s End could mean the end of the world, quite literally.
Now playing in theaters nationwide, the fi lm also stars Rosamund Pike as Oli-ver’s sister, Sam, and Pierce Brosnan as the group’s former school teacher, Guy.
Pegg, 43, and Frost, 41, consider “The World’s End” part of a trilogy — not because they feature the same characters and a de-veloping storyline — but because of simi-lar themes (and they all feature an English brand of ice cream called Cornetto).
In “Shaun of the Dead,” the duo and a small band of others fi ght their way through a zombie plague in London, while “Hot Fuzz” fi nds the two and a small group of of-fi cers at odds with the cult in a seemingly quaint small village in the English country-side.
In the sci-fi themed “The World’s End,” the characters played by Pegg, Frost and
their buddies run into a dominating force hell-bent on some cosmic intervention of the residents on Earth.
“After we made ‘Shaun of the Dead’ and it did really well — better than we ever ex-pected or dreamed it would do — we were given the opportunity to make a sequel. But instead of doing that, we decided make a thematic sequel rather than a direct one,” Pegg explained. “We used a sort of cinemat-ic genre trove to say things that were mean-ingful to us like friendship and camaraderie ... the loss of identity in the face of a homog-enizing force, about friendship, about the loss of adolescence and about Britain, since they’re all set in the U.K. and that they all feature me and Nick.”
While “The World’s End” completes a trilogy for Pegg, Frost and Wright, don’t ex-pect it to be the end of the team’s collabora-tions together.
“We love working together. There’s quite a lot truth that we make fi lms to hang out together. In fact, our wives think we’re working right now. That’s bulls—,” Frost said, laughing. “We love working together — me, Simon, Edgar and Nira Park, our producer — I think we’re very lucky that we get to do these fi lms and then go off and do our own kind of thing, then come back. If it’s fi ve years from now that that happens again, that’s the way it will be. But we will absolutely work together again. We have too much fun not to.”

Bear Creek wins big over Green MountainFaith Christian’s Langewisch scored four touchdownsBy Daniel [email protected]
Alameda: The Pirates fell to 0-2 on the season but their record is not an indication of how good they have played.
Alameda suffered its second straight heartbreaking late-game loss, 33-29 to Denver West, Friday at Trailblazer Stadium. In week one Alameda fell to Skyview, 36-28.
The Pirates will try and turn those losses into wins when they play at Englewood Fri-day at 7 p.m.
Arvada: The Bulldogs finally found their mojo in the third quarter of their second game of the season but it wasn’t enough as they fell 31-18 at Englewood.
After being shut out the week before, Arvada looked good at times against Engle-wood, but just could not keep the Pirates out of the end zone.
Arvada (0-2) will host Skyview Friday at 4 p.m.
Arvada West: The Wildcats got their first victory of the season in style when they shut out Rock Canyon 14-0 on the road.
A-West responded to being shut out the previous week by producing an unbreak-able defensive effort.
The Wildcats scored a pair of touch-downs in the second quarter, one a 30-yard rushing touchdown by senior Marcus Cul-hane.
A-West will host Chatfield Friday at 7 p.m. at North Area Athletic Complex.
Bear Creek/Green Mountain: After winning only two games all of last season, the Bears improved to 2-0 with a 38-20 vic-tory over Green Mountain on Friday.
Bear Creek scored a total of 25 points in the second and third quarter and the Rams couldn’t keep up offensively.
It was the second consecutive game where the Bears scored at least 36 points.
Green Mountain also showed flashes of brilliance in the loss that included a 20-yard touchdown reception by senior Mitch Sha-fer.
The Rams (1-1) will host Golden Thurs-day at 7 p.m. Bear Creek will look to stay unbeaten when they host Mountain Vista Thursday at 4 p.m.
D’Evelyn: After scoring 95 total points in their first two wins of the season, the power went out for the Jaguars in their 42-7 loss to Holy Family on Saturday.
Holy Family scored 14 points in each of the first three quarters and D’Evelyn was left in the dust.
Senior Conner Mateer had a rush-
ing touchdown for the Jaguars in the sec-ond quarter, but four turnovers doomed D’Evelyn’s chances for a win.
The Jaguars (2-1) will travel to Stocker Stadium where they will play Grand Junc-tion Central Friday at 7 p.m.
Faith Christian: The Eagles improved to 2-1 with a monster 59-18 victory over Vista Peak Prep Friday at Faith Christian High School.
Senior running back Daniel Langewisch stole the show with his epic 125-yard rush-ing effort that was capped with four touch-downs.
The Eagles had 31 total first downs and scored 41 points in the second and third quarters, fuelling their blowout win.
Faith Christian (2-1) will travel to Kent Denver for a match up Friday at 3:30 p.m.
Golden: The rebuilding Demons suf-fered their second straight big loss when they were beaten by Dakota Ridge 51-0 Fri-day at Trailblazer Stadium.
Golden, led by first year head coach Ja-son Neely, struggled against Dakota Ridge who overwhelmed them offensively.
Neely, despite the blowout, remains positive and acknowledged that it will take
some time for Golden to once again be-come a force in Jeffco football.
The Demons (0-2) will play Green Mountain Thursday at 7 p.m. at Trailblazer Stadium.
Jefferson: Even though their defense kept them in the game until its end the Saints fell to Sheridan 14-6 on Friday.
Jefferson players suffered their first loss of the season, after they threatened to tie the score late in the game.
But Sheridan’s surprising stout defense never cracked.
The Saints (2-1) are still off to an impres-sive start to their season and will try to build on it Saturday when they play at Denver Christian at 1 p.m.
Pomona: In a meeting between two of the best teams in the state Pomona fell to Cherry Creek Friday at North Area Athletic Complex, 19-15.
After a slow first half where only nine total points were scored both teams got it together in the second half.
However, Pomona couldn’t close the deal despite Chris Marquez’s big night.
The senior running back rushed for 83 yards and a touchdown, but Cherry Creek
did just enough to slow the rest of the Pan-thers’ offense down.
The two teams could see each other again in the playoffs.
Pomona (1-1) will host Lakewood Satur-day at 7:30 at NAAC.
Ralston Valley: After two big wins to open the season the Mustangs struggled in their 36-18 loss to ThunderRidge Saturday at North Area Athletic Complex.
ThunderRidge jumped on Ralston Val-ley early in the action and never let up. The Mustangs attempted to get back into the game, and if it wasn’t for sloppy play the game outcome could have been different.
The Mustangs (2-1) will travel to Grand Junction Friday at 7 p.m.
Wheat Ridge: The Farmers fell 45-18 at Monarch on Saturday, but there are positive to take from the loss.
Wheat Ridge got a glimpse at the reign-ing state champions and now has a measur-ing stick on what it takes to get to that level.
Monarch scored 14 points in each of the first three quarters before the Farmers started to get it going late.
The Farmers (1-1) will host Littleton Fri-day at 4 p.m.

Horizon football falls to RegisHawks still hunting for win in 2013 seasonBy Kate [email protected]
The Horizon High School football team suffered another loss this season, 26-7 to Regis High School Sept. 6 at North Stadium leaving the squad winless thus far in 2013.
The Hawks were able to keep up with the Raiders through the first half only be-ing down 10-0 at halftime. However, two touchdowns and a safety in the second half overpowered Horizon’s lone touchdown for the Regis victory.
“Before half I was pretty inspired,” Ho-rizon Head Coach Frank Ybarra said. “I thought we grew up a lot from last week to this week. Tonight, it was better, but we’re still not good enough to beat a quality team like Regis.”
Penalties have been an issue for the Hawks against both Regis and when they played Grandview Aug. 29. On their first drive in the opening quarter, the Hawks had a personal foul taking them back 15 yards.
In the same quarter, Horizon had to replay second down after a pass interference call.
“Right now, when we have penalties, they’re drive killers for us,” Ybarra said. “You can’t keep digging yourself out of sec-ond and 25 holes anymore. We’ve got some cleaning up to do.”
The Hawks held the Raiders to a 0-0 score going into the second quarter. With six minutes left in the second half, Regis running back Grant Neal took a handoff from quarterback Josh Aguilar-Wynn and ran the ball into the endzone for a touch-down and the 7-0 lead.
Horizon defensive back Dominick Casti-glione blocked two passes from going into the Raiders’ receivers hands and had an in-terception late in the second quarter. But it wasn’t enough since Regis intercepted the ball right back and kicked a field goal going into halftime with a 10-0 lead.
“He’s a spark plug,” Ybarra said of Cas-tiglione. “He’s a tough kid; he knows how to find the football. The interception was a great play, he needed that so bad. He’s just a fiery football player.”
The Raiders scored a touchdown and got a safety in the third quarter, leading the
game 19-0. Regis runningback Kameron Butler increased the result 26-0 just 36 sec-onds into the fourth quarter. Hawks tight end Greg Gonzales scored a touchdown off a pass from quarterback Ayden Karraker at the end of the fourth quarter, leaving the fi-nal result 26-7.
Horizon is 0-2 overall and will play a
Northglenn team who’s also 0-2 Sept. 13 at Five Star Stadium.
“Until we clean up our mental mistakes, and our kids stay focused for a longer pe-riod of time, we’re going to continue to struggle,” Ybarra said. “We got two weeks to figure it out, and then we go into league against Mountain Range.”

Golden, Faith Christian play dramatic zero-all contest Netminders shine in gamethat didn’t produce a goal By Daniel Williams [email protected]
ARVADA - Golden playing Faith Christian proved it doesn’t take a lot of scoring to produce a lot of excitement.
In perhaps the most dramatic 0-0 game in recent memory, the Demons played the Eagles to a double overtime draw Thursday at Faith Christian High School.
While there was no scoring to re-port, there was plenty of action and several near game-winning goals.
Give full credit to both schools goaltenders, which combined to make 10 total saves — with several brilliant game-saving goals.
“Both goaltenders where great to-night, one mistake by either of them, and one team goes home very disap-pointed,” Golden coach Josh Nolker said. “We wanted to win the game but are also happy we didn’t lose tonight.”
Golden junior goalie Jasper Hughes made fi ve saves — including a game-saving stop he made against Faith Christian senior Cameron Doody in the second half.
Hughes has only given up two total goals this season in three games for the unbeaten Demons (2-0-1).
The Eagles had an underclassman in net for a Faith Christian team who
has already played fi ve games this sea-son (2-2-1). Sophomore Sam Goodwin was as good as his last name would in-dicate stopping fi ve shots on goal to help preserve the shutout.
“Really both teams deserved to win the game so maybe it’s not so bad that one team had to go home disap-pointed,” Faith Christian coach Will Lind said.
And while 3A Faith Christian does have two losses on their record, it must be noted that both came to 5A opponents in Ponderosa and Lake-wood.
Lind intentionally creates a sched-ule for the Eagles that features literally the toughest of competition by playing teams higher classifi cations so that his team is battle-tested and prepared to play the best come playoff time.
That is one reason Lind and the Ea-gles have won multiple state titles and are seen as one of the elite programs in the state.
Faith Christian will play at Denver East Thursday at 6 p.m.
Golden will host Denver South Thursday at 4 p.m. at North Area Ath-letic Complex.

The Saints (2-1) will play at Bennett Thursday at 6 p.m.Lakewood: The Tigers scored twice in the fi rst half and
then hung on for a 2-1 victory over Faith Christian Friday at Lakewood Memorial Field.

However, the Tigers defense stood up and a very young Lakewood team fi nally got in the win column.
Lakewood (1-2) will play Golden Tuesday at North Area Athletic Complex.
Ralston Valley: The Mustangs stayed unbeaten with a 1-0 victory at Gateway on Friday.
Junior Jordan Quinlisk scored a fi rst half goal and his de-fense helped preserve the lead.

Wheat Ridge: The Farmers found their mojo and rolled over Columbine in a 5-0 victory Friday at Columbine High School.

The Mustangs (2-1) will travel to Grand Junction Friday at 7 p.m.
Wheat Ridge: The Farmers fell 45-18 at Monarch on Saturday, but there are positive to take from the loss.
Wheat Ridge got a glimpse at the reign-ing state champions and now has a measur-ing stick on what it takes to get to that level.
Monarch scored 14 points in each of the fi rst three quarters before the Farmers started to get it going late.
The Farmers (1-1) will host Littleton Fri-day at 4 p.m.

Legacy takes Mayor’s Cup from BroomfieldLightning wins rival game 27-23By Kate [email protected]
After losing the intra-city Mayor’s Cup to Broomfield two consecutive years, Leg-acy’s football team repossessed the trophy following a 27-23 win in a cross-town rival-ry game Sept. 7 at North Stadium.
“They battled and battled and battled and Broomfield hung tight, but we pre-vailed in the end, and I’m proud of our kids,” Legacy head coach Wayne Voorhees said.
The Lightning won a close game which started out as a comfortable lead going into halftime 20-3. In the third quarter, Legacy kicker Huntor Rainwater missed a field goal with six minutes left in the third. When the Eagles got the ball back, Broom-field quarterback Alec McLain ran the ball into the endzone shortening Legacy’s lead by only 10 points.
With a minute left in the third, the Ea-gles intercepted the ball and scored at the beginning of the fourth quarter, closing the gap even more for the Lightning, 20-17. With seven minutes left in the game, Legacy defensive back Drew Hebel made an interception.
Running back Taten Petersian scored a much-needed touchdown for Legacy, wid-ening the score 27-17.
“Drew had a good game on defense and on special teams, he did a lot of good things for us,” Voorhees said. “That pick was big in the third quarter, and I’m proud of him, he made some good plays.”
With two minutes left, Broomfield scored another touchdown, but the point after touchdown was blocked by Lightning defensive lineman Andrew LaGuardia. With 19 seconds left and the ball on the Eagles’ 19-yard line, McLain attempted to
run the ball himself but was tackled to the ground, presenting Legacy with the 27-23 win and the Mayor’s Cup.
Wide receiver Jacob Royer scored the first touchdown of the game off a pass from quarterback Matt Lynch in the first quarter.
Wide receiver Jordan Van Valkenburg also scored off a pass from Lynch in the
second quarter. Rainwater kicked two field goals in the second for a 20-3 lead at half-time. Besides the field goals, there wasn’t a Legacy player who scored multiple times.
“We try to distribute the ball a little bit,” Voorhees said. “We’re going to pound at you, and then we’re going to throw it a few times and we made some plays early. As many guys that can make touches the
better.”Legacy is 1-1 overall and will now travel
to Parker to play a Chaparral team who’s 0-2.
“Some of the things they’re going to try to do is they’re going to try to run the ball, and we have to show up our run defense a little bit,” Voorhees said. “Offensively, we just have to keep the ball moving.”
