tesa tape, inc.: Easy-open tape for corrugated board
Tesa tape's tesa® Easy Open Tear Tapes are designed as embedded opening tools for small to mid-sized corrugated packages.
The tapes are applied to the interior side of the package either during the board production process or at an off-line station. Once applied, the parcel is now packaged with a self-contained, clean "opening" tear strip, eliminating the need for additional opening tools such as knives, scissors, and box cutters. The 3 tape versions provide different mil thicknesses and feature improved adhesive systems and improved backing materials that eliminate tape shrinkage and lifting.

Beadboard on a cabinet end ?
Thinking about using beadboard on a exposed cabinet end and exposed fridge panel instead of a matching flat end. It would be bought with the cabinets so the finish matches. Has anyone done this or do you think it would look stupid?
Trying to finish up my decisions, so I can get my cabinets ordered. The longer I wait, the more changes I think of.
2little: Really don't like the flat end and doing matching door or integral end are more expensive then doing the beadboard ends. Also, probably going to do 30" deep refridgerator panels and not sure how they would look with the matching door or integral end on that wide of an end panel.
Green: The house is a traditional 2-story.
The cabinets look like they are going to be Shiloh beaded inset.
Not sure if I'm using the correct terminology, so I'm attaching a picture of what I'm talking about. It's what they used on the range hood on the picture.
Is the price difference that much? Without knowing anything about what you're planning, I would say that it has to "make sense" with the style of kitchen you're planning. Will there be beadboard anywhere else? Is it just those 2 ends?
It might be a fine idea but I don't know what you're kitchen plan is ; )

Tragic, indeed since I don't believe any conscientious patriot wishes for such conflict but IMO and at some point, disobedience to unjust law becomes a morally dutiful act.
Those who are aware of the potential costs I believe also realize the solitude of their principled position, while I do believe you are correct that others with less commitment to such a public 'profile' can follow bravery's lead.
Let us hope for the best, indeed

After extending olive branch, Los Angeles posts eviction notice on Occupy LA camp
After supporting Occupy Wall Street with City Council proclamations and invitations to stay indefinitely, Los Angeles prepares to evict the 485-tent Occupy LA encampment that has spent seven weeks on the City Hall lawn.
Jae C. Hong/AP
Arguably the most peaceful and orderly large Occupy Wall Street encampment – a nearly 500-tent occupation on two flanks of Los Angeles City Hall – is scheduled to be evicted at 12:01 a.m. Monday.
While police in cities from Oakland to New York City have clashed, sometimes violently, with the grassroots economic justice movement that sprang up near-spontaneously in October, Los Angeles has until now extended an olive branch. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, a former community organizer, has proclaimed that the movement has "awakened the country's conscience."
But even after City Council president Eric Garcetti originally told protesters to "stay as long as you need to," the city has now withdrawn that invitation, citing destruction to the City Hall lawn as one reason to evict protesters.
RECOMMENDED: Top 5 targets of Occupy Wall Street
"The movement is at a crossroads," Mr. Villaraigosa said on Friday. "It is time for Occupy LA to move from holding a particular patch of park land to spreading the message of economic justice and signing more people up for the push to restore the balance to American society."

It is difficult to say whether [Brazil] will manage to go through a stage of 'blood, sweat and tears' after so many years of 'sex, drugs and rock and roll'.

Tiling kitchen floor - Which backing board to use?
Hello All!
I'm currently renovating my kitchen and need some assistance! Which backing board is preferred for porcelain 12x24 tile (3/8" thick) Ditra, HardieBacker, or cement board?
I would like my new kitchen tile to come flush with the existing oak floor which is 3/4" thick.
Floor Joist = 2x10 (16" on center)
Subfloor = 3/4 plywood
This post was edited by ready253 on Sun, Mar 23, 14 at 4:33
The first order of business is determining how stiff the existing floor is. This depends on your joist thickness, span, and spacing as well as composition such as sawn or Truss Joist Internationals (TJI). The thickness and composition of the existing subfloor, fastening schedule, and whether or not it was adhered to the joists will effect floor deflection also. Stiffer is better, even it it means sacrificing being flush with the existing oak floor.
Ditra is an uncoupling membrane, not a "backing board" to add stiffness. I wouldn't lay floor tile without it.
Michael Byrne wrote a book published by Taunton press on tile. I'd get it and do whatever he recommends.
Large format tile requires an EXTREMELY stiff floor to not crack. It's not as simple as you think. Earch online for the Deflectometer to find out what type of reinforcement that the joists may need FIRST.
I have used Ditra very successfully with a few projects using 16x16 stone tile and another with 12x12 porcelain tile. I like that Ditra is very thin compared to backerboard and provides an isolation membrane. Ditra has a great handbook that provides specifications on joist and subfloor requirements. I picked a hard copy up at a local tile store, but they also offer them in PDF format online. In some cases with Ditra you need two plywood/particle board underlayments on top of the joists (which is something I found already in my house under the carpet and vinyl flooring) for certain sizes of tile.
Here is a link that might be useful: Schluter Ditra Handbooks
Thanks for the replies everyone.
After some calculations, looks like I have deflection rating of L/380 and I'm good to go with porcelain tile :)
The current 3/4" plywood is good condition, but I would like to add another layer of plywood for it to be perfect. So, where do I go from here to get my new tiles flush with the 3/4" oak floors?
Could I use a 1/8" plywood on top of the 3/4" plywood subfloor, add 1/8" Ditra, add another 1/8" for thinset, and finally the 3/8" tile?
Thanks in advance.
This post was edited by ready253 on Sun, Mar 23, 14 at 4:51
1/8" of plywood isn't going to add much stiffness, it would be more like a shim. I would add 1/4" with construction adhesive and a heavy fastening schedule. Check your blocking between your floor joists; more is better.
Don't forget, there is a layer of thinset for the Ditra too. Don't fuss too much about the floors being flush.
I reblocked all the joist today using 2x10's to make it more rigid.
What kind of construction adhesive do you have in mind? As for adding the 1/8 plywood, I only thought about adding it to the layup to give me a flush transition. I don't mind a little "hump", but it's a requirement from the wifey.
Any other suggestions?

Preserving Colorado open spaces with urban density
December 18, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment
Elisa Cohen |
firstname.lastname@example.com |
In the five year process of the 2010 rezoning Denver, groups of community members came out to meeting upon public meeting to review and write notes on maps and lobby for their vision of Denver's built landscape.
The 1955 enacted zoning with R2 duplex zoning in our inner core neighborhoods had not been fully taken advantage of during the 55 years it had been the law of the land. Many residents who did not like the look of the new duplexes coming into the neighborhood pointed to Blueprint Denver, the 2002 vision document for the city. The large duplexes felt like change in what was classified as an "area of stability." In these meetings, the consensus was that dense housing should be restricted to "areas of change."
So it is strange to me to see these very same residents, four years later, lamenting dense housing projects along 38th Avenue. 38th Avenue was then, as it is now, considered one of the "areas of change" in Denver. At the recent meeting reported on in this edition, the oft repeated attack about the profit motive of the developers was lobbied at both the developer and Susan Shepherd.
It is unfair to attack a developer who analyzes land with specific zoning, purchases it, and then presents drawings based on the law of the land. This is the very nature of a stable successful law abiding state. We must all be able to depend on making business decisions based on the laws on the books if we want a stable economy.
While I fully understand how unnerving it would be for a resident living across the street from such a new development to have to endure the construction phase and then get used to the new patterns of traffic, the zoning has been in place for four years now.
Recent articles in the Denver Post revealed the water crisis growing in the southern suburbs. If more people are moving to this region, then we must accommodate them in urban dense areas designated for this purpose. In addition to lower water usage in apartments, "apartment buildings with five or more units use about half as much energy as other types of homes." writes the Energy Information Agency.
Thoughtful, respectful dialog gets modifications to projects to help alleviate the burden to the neighbors. Telling the developer they can not make a profit and can not abide by the laws is a recipe for a failed battle that does no good. Profit is not a evil in our society. Every business we utilize depends on profit to exist. Change is upon us.
Denver's Northern Identity Hinges on CDOT's I-70 Decision
December 18, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment

Years ago, my daily journey took me through the streets and under the bridges in Globeville to North High School. As a Globeville native I have the firsthand experience and tools to analyze the impact of I-70 on the community in which I spent my childhood and where the people I love still live. So as I think about all the discussions surrounding the widening of I-70 or the northern reroute option through I-76 and I-270, it is a tough issue to process. I see this both as a neighborhood resident and an individual who has been trained at the Ivy League to examine public policies critically and thoroughly.
Regardless of the lens I look at this issue from, it is clear that the decision the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) will soon make will affect our North Denver neighborhoods, our city and our state for at least the next century. Thus, it is crucial that CDOT truly examines all options and alternatives.
First, let me make this point clear. This issue is not solely about two "forgotten" neighborhoods, Globeville and Elyria-Swansea. Instead, this is about the image, identity and soul of our entire metropolitan area. As Denverites, new and old, natives and transplants, we must all ask ourselves: what kind of city do we want to live in and call our home?
With all the new development that is taking place or soon will happen around Brighton Boulevard, the new Fox Street RTD light rail station at 41st Avenue, the old ASARCO smelter facility and the National Western Stock Show Complex, the answer to this question is imperative.
Furthermore, we must ask even harder questions such as: do we as a city want to continue to perpetuate racial, ethnic and economic divides by a literal east to west border? Do we as a city want to continue to fill our northern neighborhoods with pollution and car exhaust fumes? Or instead, do we as a city and as a state want to take this priceless opportunity to enact public policy that will change the landscape of North Denver for the better?
The answers to these questions are particularly important when we venture to think about what could be; a beautiful tree line boulevard that opens up our city, the Queen City of the West, to every newcomer arriving from DIA or just average Denver folks making their daily drives home. We, as Coloradans, have a once in a lifetime chance to make an entire swath of our metropolitan area drastically healthier, more small business friendly and more pedestrian friendly for generations to come.
I encourage you to reach out to our city and state elected officials, because the I-70 decision will affect everyone. Reach out to city officials like: Mayor Hancock, Councilperson Ortega, Councilperson Shepherd, Councilperson Kniech and Councilperson Montero. Reach out to state officials like: Governor Hickenlooper, State Senator Guzman, State Senator Johnston, State Representative Elect Danielson, State Representative Duran, State Representative McCann and State Representative Pabon. Write them a letter. Give them a phone call or email them.
We can remind these officials that the I-70 CDOT project has many options, and it is in our city and state's best interests that CDOT evaluates each option critically and thoroughly.

Why Our Industrial Age Schools are Failing Our Information Age Kids
November 30, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment
Educator, Researcher Describes 4 Ways to Reboot
In spite of the billions of dollars spent on educational reform since "A Nation at Risk" was published in 1987, more than half of America's high school seniors are not proficient in reading, and 75 percent can't do math, according to the recently released National Assessment of Educational Progress.
"Clearly, the current approaches to educational reform are failing," says notes educational researcher and consultant Charles M. Reigeluth, author of "Reinventing Schools: It's Time to Break the Mold" (www.reigeluth.net). "The problem is that major aspects of our educational system were devised to meet the societal needs of a bygone era."
"We need to change the paradigm – we need to move from Industrial Age 'factory model schools' to accommodate and reflect Information Age needs and realities."
The Industrial Age in the United States, roughly 1830 to 1960, was shaped by machinery and mass production. Many jobs moved from farms to factories, which required workers – and therefore students – who would follow instructions and endure repetitive, boring tasks, he says.
"We did not need to educate many people to high levels, so Industrial Age schools sorted students, promoting the few needed for managerial and professional work, and flunking out the many needed for the assembly lines," says Reigeluth, a former high school teacher and Indiana University professor.
"Today, knowledge work is more common than manual labor, and our systems are far more complex. All adults need a higher degree of knowledge just to function in society, so we can no longer afford a system that is designed to leave many children behind."
Here are four Industrial Age educational artifacts, according to Reigeluth, and how to update them for the Information Age:
• Time-based student progress: Currently students in a class move on together to the next topic according to the calendar, regardless of whether they have learned the current material. Slower students accumulate learning gaps that make it more difficult for them to master related material in the future, virtually condemning them to flunk out. The system is designed to leave many children behind.
A paradigm designed to leave no child behind would allow each student to move on as soon as he or she has learned the current material, and no sooner. This requires "personalized learning'' and "learner-centered instruction" that is both high-tech and high-touch.
• Standardized and other broad tests: Rather than evaluating a student based on how much he or she has learned in a certain amount of time, such as a 9-week period, each student should be evaluated to determine when the material has been learned, so we know when the student is ready to move on. This is called "criterion-referenced assessment," a different paradigm from "norm-referenced assessment."
"A big test with 20 different topics, as we use now, shows only how much a student knows compared to other students," Reigeluth says. "In the Information Age paradigm, all students are expected to finish learning whatever they undertake to learn. Like a Boy Scout working on a badge, each student continues to work until the material is mastered."
Assessments, then, are incremental and cover a single competency, or a small set of competencies. They certify mastery while also helping guide learning by showing students what they need to continue working on.
• The traditional grading system: The traditional grading system indicates how well a student performed compared to the other students in a class – a tool that is only effective in sorting students. It's not an effective way of guiding and ensuring individual student learning, and it tells you little about what the student has learned.
"Rather than achievement reflected as grades on a report card, it would be reflected as lists of skills and concepts that the student has mastered," Reigeluth says.
• Locking students into grades: Grade levels are incompatible with the Information Age model because students learn at different rates and become ready to move on to different material at different times. Grade levels are a key feature of the time-based, sorting-focused paradigm that served us well during the Industrial Age, but are detrimental to meeting Information Age educational needs.
Instead, group students into similar developmental levels, which typically span three to four years.
"Grouping developmentally, rather than based on age or rigid levels of content learning, accounts for the different rates at which children develop socially and emotionally," Reigeluth says. "Children can remain in their social-emotional peer group while working on projects typically tackled by students of a higher or lower age."

Too much fun can ruin future; talk before Halloween trouble
October 18, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment
By Eric Granof
As we quickly approach Halloween, one of the most popular holidays of the year, many young college kids are scrambling for the perfect costume and making big plans for that big blow out of a costume party.
Unfortunately, many holiday revelers, plan for everything except the one thing they never think could possibly happen to them: getting arrested and going to jail. Holidays with a significant alcohol component to them, like Halloween, are notorious for being times of the year when many young college-aged kids have a little too much fun, get a little too crazy and get themselves into trouble. Perhaps it is the result of inexperience or just getting used to their first taste of freedom and college life, but kids partying a little too hard around Halloween and getting in trouble with the law is an all-too-common occurrence. Whether it's being arrested for DUI, public intoxication or even vandalism, what started out as evening of fun can quickly turn into a nightmare.
When this scenario unfolds, a bail bond agent is the first person to whom young people and families usually turn. While that may be common knowledge, what may surprise many is the supportive role that bail agents take in times of crisis.
While many people know what a bail agent does, very few ever plan on needing their services. That can quickly change when a parent gets that call at 3:00 AM from their son or daughter with the words they never want to hear – "Mom, Dad – I'm in jail!"
Typically, parents don't know what to do. They may panic and cause themselves enormous stress, which does not help the situation. Fortunately the majority of bail agents are all too familiar with this scenario. In fact, the best ones do more than merely write the bond that releases the individual from incarceration, but take the time to calm families down, while explaining the process. Many become de facto counselors, guiding them through what is certainly one of the darkest moments of their lives. Sometimes it takes the form of offering some personal words of wisdom, an anecdote from their own experiences or sometimes just good, old-fashioned encouragement to help them through. Most just feel it's a part of the job.
The majority of bail agents know that it's also important to impress upon young people the severity of being in trouble with the law. They will often sit with them and explain the potential repercussions they might be facing due to their arrest. These conversations can be eye-opening and life-changing. For example, when a young person gets a DUI, the repercussions can include everything from:
• The potential loss of scholarships they have been awarded
• The high costs involved — easily $20,000 or more and the stress they have caused their family
• Losing one's driver license.
• Impacting one's ability to get future employment.
• Losing the right to vote in elections – ever.
• Hindering one's ability to rent an apartment or house
• Preventing one from being eligible for professional licenses, including those for accounting, plumbing, electrical work, insurance agent….and much more.
A good bail agent understands the impact that they have had with the individuals they have bailed out, especially young ones. From drug counseling to alcohol programs, bail agents are often called upon to provide assistance to individuals in need to receive necessary help to get their lives back on track. At the same time, they can play a crucial role in a young person's life by educating them on the possible negative outcomes associated with irresponsible behavior.
Every parent who has ever sent a kid off to college worries about them. And it's even more difficult when that concern turns out to be justified if they're arrested. While no one ever wants to actually need the services of a bail agent, it's nice to know they're available to lend a gentle helping hand – and maybe give some life-changing advice to a son or daughter who might just be in the mood to listen.
Eric Granof serves as Vice President of Corporate Communications for AIA/ExpertBail. The AIA family of companies is the nation's largest underwriter of bail and has been partnering with agents across the country for over a century.

Math and science – not just for rocket scientists
October 1, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment
By Dick Resch
Looking to get rich? Try welding.
For the third consecutive year, positions in the skilled trades are the hardest to fill, according to a Manpower Group survey of American employers. This shortage is why a master welder can earn a six-figure salary — without a college degree.
There aren't enough skilled tradesmen because our nation's schools aren't producing graduates with the math and science knowledge needed to fill these skilled jobs.
That has to change. Educators must rethink the way they teach math and science — especially to students who may not go to college. The best way to reach these kids is to scrap the age-old lecture and empower them to learn by doing.
International rankings reveal the depths of America's underachievement. Among 34 developed nations, the United States ranks 27th in math and 20th in science. More than one-quarter of U.S. students lack even basic proficiency in math. That's 13 percent higher than the global average.
This poor performance is concerning, as these students risk economic marginalization.
A million people drop out of high school each year. Most don't participate in the labor force. Those that do face an unemployment rate 50 percent higher than their graduating peers.
That low-performing quarter of students also includes many who complete high school yet still lack the math skills needed for most entry-level manufacturing jobs — let alone the skilled-trade positions that could vault them into the middle class.
Philadelphia Federal Reserve President Charles Plosser said earlier this year, "We are seeing a mismatch of skills in the workforce and the jobs that are being created."
To fill these jobs — and provide livelihoods for millions — we must keep students who struggle with math in school and find ways to boost their achievement.
According to the National Training Laboratories, the traditional lecture format yields only a 5 percent learning retention rate. Allowing students to practice by doing, in contrast, results in a whopping 75 percent retention rate.
The way forward is clear: Embrace technology, collaboration, and hands-on learning.
Already, colleges are adopting this approach. The University of Pennsylvania has built a new classroom with customized, powered round tables so students can collaborate using all manner of technology. It plans to add three to four more such classrooms over the next year.
MIT's Technology-Enabled Active Learning (TEAL) Project merges lecture, simulation, collaborative learning, and hands-on experiments in one classroom. Failure rates for freshmen in a TEAL physics course were one-third those in the traditional setting. Average gains in understanding were more than double. Gains were highest among students at the bottom of the achievement ladder.
Engaged learning models are trickling down into elementary and secondary schools, too. In Philadelphia, several schools are using the Full Option Science System, a hands-on, activity-based approach that empowers students to investigate, experiment, and collaborate to discover the material in each lesson.
Students at FOSS schools have scored higher on standardized tests. The longer they're in the program, the greater the gains in achievement.
Administrators across the country are enlisting the firm I lead, KI, to help them transform their traditional classrooms into technology-enhanced learning environments, where students work in small groups while instructors rove about, offering individualized help and coaching.
To refill the ranks of the middle class with good-paying manufacturing jobs, we must address our nation's math and science achievement gap. The instructional status quo isn't working. There's ample evidence that a more active, engaged approach will.

Neither code nor plan called for 12-story heights
July 17, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment
In two recent articles, the North Denver Tribune gave rave reviews to the proposed development on the old St. Anthony's site. The development (now called South Sloan's Lake) proposes 12 and 16 story buildings and there is also talk about 20 stories. As someone who spent over a year on a redevelopment task force, please forgive me if I do not share the rave reviews for this proposal.
The St. Anthony Central Redevelopment Task Force met for over a year. The task force included members of City Council, city agencies, community members, and members of the West Colfax Business community. We had experts testify, we had open discussions and at the end (in 2006) issued a report of our work.
Denver's comprehensive plan, the new zoning code, and the St. Anthony's Central Redevelopment Task Force never recommended 12, 16 or 20 story buildings. Yet that is what is being pushed by the developer, Enviro Finance Group (EFG).
Our current City Council representative failed to honor the work of the task force claiming that it was not an "adopted plan" even though it was included in the Colfax Area Plan which was adopted by City Council. She also failed to ensure that residents' explicit concerns were addressed during the General Development Plan process.
I asked Rafael Espinosa his opinion of the proposed development and was impressed on the depth and breadth of knowledge he had on the subject. Rafael is a candidate for City Council District 1, the position currently held by Councilwoman Shepherd. As an architect he is aware of what types of buildings enhance a neighborhood and what density is needed to make a financially viable project for a developer. The thought the St. Anthony Central Redevelopment Task Force's recommendations would have made a more successful project. However, he realizes the developer has proceeded in a way which prevents that original vision.
I asked him what he would suggest. As someone who has previously worked to get opposing sides together to work out problems, he would do this again to look at creative solutions that would include all of the stakeholders. This is the type of leadership needed to resolve not only the St. Anthony's redevelopment issue, but many other issues in our district.

Plazas and commercial sidewalks designed for public use will connect small businesses on Raleigh. These outdoor spaces, along with the reconnection to the street grid, have the potential to bring together our community for goods and services that have long been missing on the south side of lake.

Saying Goodbye to North High School

North High School has been a major turnaround school for the past four years. Earning the highest growth on TCAP scores in all DPS High schools since 2012, senior classes progressing in graduating class or scholarship money earned as a class to attend a college or university, or having the winning Aspen Challenge team this year with PLAY Denver, North is bit by bit progressing and heading in a positive direction. Every class inside of the walls of North is phenomenal, but one class that has stood out against the rest is the class of 2014. Read more
A solution for disappearing the parked cars of North Denver
February 19, 2014 by admin · 6 Comments
by Elisa Cohen
If we could disappear 200 parked cars around our busy commercial districts without having to look at a massive parking structure, should we analyze this option? We think so.
The Tribune has archive papers showing the conversation about parked cars has been going on since at least the 1940s. Ten years ago we published an idea that we believe still has merit.
Disappear 200 parked cars in 100 private garages built by the homeowners with zero interest loans provided by the city that benefits by the taxes generated in these congested areas.
On a completely voluntary basis, provide zero interest loans to homeowners who want to add two car garages to their properties within two blocks of defined commercial areas. By taking the homeowners' cars out of the parking equation, visitors to the neighborhood should be able to find easier parking, thus ensuring that our embedded retailers, restaurateurs, and service provides can continue to thrive and contribute to our tax base.
A visual survey we conducted ten years ago showed at least 110 properties within two blocks of the 32nd and Lowell area that had land available for a two car garage in off the alley. While we fully understand that not all homeowners would want to add a two car garage to their property, those who did would benefit in the following ways:
They would ensure a parking spot adjacent to their home.
They would increase the value of their property.
They would ensure the value of their property by aiding the prosperity of the merchants.
If the average two car garage costs $25,000 to build, this is a $2.5 million dollar idea if 100 garages get built. But instead of one big garage that will still be blocks away from business on either end of the commercial strip, our idea would distribute the solution throughout the corridor. Individual homeowners versus developers would benefit by this public investment in ongoing prosperity.
To fully analyze the potential of this idea, planners can utilize the information gleaned from the various surveys now underway. Financial analysts could determine the real costs to Denver by taking into account the tax revenue generated by the businesses as well as the increases in property values of the improved homes with new garages. They would need to survey homeowners for their ability and desire to invest in this way in their property.
We believe this solution could be a win for the neighborhood.
Community Member Editorial: The Train Had Left the Station and the Mayor was Aboard

One never fails to learn new lessons when dealing with neighborhood and development issues. I learned a new lesson while observing the approval process for the General Development Plan (GDP) at the former St. Anthony's Hospital site, If you want to get something done, it certainly helps to bring all the insiders together. The revolving door is alive an well in Denver and it evidently opens up directly to the Mayor and his minyans despite the wishes of the majority of neighborhood residents.
When Centura Health decided to move to Denver's western suburb of Lakewood, it left a gap in Denver's healthcare system and a huge opportunity for 30 acres of urban in-fill development. Beginning in 2005, A task force of city, business and neighborhood folks spent more than a year crafting a plan for what they hoped would be a vision broad enough to encourage good development.
Centura was to contract with MDC Holdings board member and Denver's football and baseball stadium czar, Ray Baker, and his close friend and business partner, Tim Romani to find a buyer for their 30 acre St A's property. It didn't take long before EnviroFinance Group (EFG) which claims to be a local brownfield company, announced its purchase of the property. Perhaps it was just a coincidence that Denver Urban Renewal Authority (DURA) Executive Director Tracy Huggins, sits on Baker's non-profit Gold Crown Foundation Board. Nevertheless, in 2010 and 2011 EFG had received from DURA $7 million in grants and loans for work on the polluted Dahlia Square Shopping Center and $22 million to mitigate the ASARCO toxic waste dump in Globeville. The DURA project analyst for both multi-million dollar projects was Cameron Bertron who was to become the point man for EFG on the St. A's deal shortly after leaving DURA.
In late 2011, Cameron Bertron, now an EFG official came to Neighborhood Organizations in the Sloan's Lake area to introduce himself and to say, "We are here to listen". At a Sloan's Lake Neighborhood Association (SLNA) meeting in November of 2011, members were told that there were three main principles the group expected for the St. Anthony site that were incorporated into the 2006 Task Force Plan – aggregate adequate open space along 17th Avenue; mass the tallest building in the center of the development and tier the buildings downward from the center of the tallest buildings toward the adjacent neighborhoods and the Sloan's Lake Park. Pledging to take these reasonable requests to heart, Mr. Bertron announced that the architect for the project was to be RNL.
As time went on we were to learn that Brad Buchanan, RNL principle and partner, Chair of Denver' Zoning Code Task Force and long time Chair of the Denver Planning Board, would be lead architect on the project. And, we were also to learn that the lead engineer on the project would be former Denver Planning Office staffer, Assistant Director of DURA and Planning Board member, Laura Aldrete.
In the spring of 2012, Cameron Bertron attended a meeting of the SLNA where he told those assembled, EFG would be dividing the project into seven saleable parcels. The group objected to a lack of a comprehensive plan for the development, to which he replied if they didn't like this approach, he would be pleased to work more closely with another RNO, West Colfax Association of Neighbors (WeCAN) as they were very supportive of everything EFG wanted to do. WeCAN officers were to later fully endorse EFG's GDP application without any requests for changes claiming full support of its 550 members. Councilwoman Shepherd was to use this massive 550 member support number in endorsing WeCAN's position at meetings of "smaller" RNOs all over NW Denver.
But objections to the details of EFG's GDP runs deep throughout NW Denver. Five RNOs, SLNA, Barnum, West Highlands and Jefferson Park all had objections to either the lack of open space, the height of the building or where tallest the buildings were being placed. Although Sloan's Lake Citizens Group took no position, it was clear most members had objections. After the first public meeting on June 26, 2013, the pubic had 15 days to submit written comments. More than 65 comments were received and of those 67% were negative with regard to density and size and location of the tall buildings. However, for reasons that are still unclear, that meeting was deemed invalid and those comments were to be thrown out. New comments were solicited for 15 days after a new public meeting on December 3, 2013 and, again the vast majority of those comments were negative. At the Planning Board public hearing, nearly 100 people showed up in opposition and 35 people testified in opposition. Less than 10 testified for the GDP.
But wait! There's more . There is one other little "who's who" fact here that (I will let you be the judge dear reader), likely played some role in how this drama played out. Somewhere, deep in the woods of Castle Pines, Colorado, resides the real CEO of EnviroFinance Group. He was completely invisible during the entire GDP and political process (and still is, actually). And for good reason. Even Councilwoman Shepherd, a tireless advocate for the 99%, was shocked to learn that the long time head of the EFG company was not the very visible President, Stuart Milner, but Edward K. Elanjian, former mortgage and mergers and acquisitions mogul who, up until shortly before the US economic collapse in 2007, was, according to his own biography, a main guy at Lehman Brothers and its controversial subsidiary, Aurora Loan Services. He is not a developer at all, but a Wall Street financier with questionable credentials.
Many of you know, and for those who do not, it will come as no surprise, that Community Planning and Development and the Mayoral appointed Planning Board wasted no time in endorsing the GDP 8 to 1. The new Planning Board member replacing Brad Buchanan, Jim Bershoff, was a no show. His architectural firm, Oz, had been hired by one of EFG's current contracted developers. The GDP was quickly rubber stamped by a group of Mayoral appointed department heads despite pleas from the neighborhoods. They asked to meet with the Mayor to present the almost 700 petition signature and to merely ask him to amend the GDP to scale down the building height and give more open space. .
WeCAN has now revealed how its "550" members expressed their "strong" support for the project. Turns out that anyone on the 550 WeCAN email list is considered a member. Ironically, I didn't realize when I received the December email from WeCAN that I was one of those 550 people! And here is how took an official vote….by Survey Monkey. Yes, anyone could have weighed in had I known it! Here is the question in the WeCAN email upon which, according to Councilwoman Shepherd, the entire NW Denver public opinion and fate of the GDP hinged.
Here are the questions on Survey Monkey:
WeCAN wants to know what you think about the proposed General Development Plan for the former St. Anthony's Hospital. Do you:
Support the plan
Support the plan but have concerns (list below if you'd like)
Do not care one way or another (are neutral)
Oppose the plan
Do not have enough information at this time
Here are the results of the WeCAN "vote":
Of 40 Respondents (not 550) here are the results:
21 said they supported the plan
7 said they supported the plan but had concerns – most concerns listed dealt with height
0 were neutral or didn't care one way or the other
8 were opposed and
4 didn't have enough information
So what do you think? Was the City's approval the result of a democratic planning process involving the community? Or, as we now might suspect, did the train leave the station almost as soon as it arrived?

A friend and I were disguising how GTOP tracks it's votes, and he said it tracks votes by IP and useragent as well. Well from what I know about useragents there's nothing so unique you'd be able to actually tell who someone is by that.. Low and behold, after using the site to vote with Chrome, and using my VPN to try and vote again, it had said I already voted. Alright, so it must be something with cache, or cookie session, I wiped cache, reloaded browser, and went into incognito mode on a fresh IP, it still said i voted in the past 24 hours.. At this point I gave in and loaded up Firefox to vote.. and it accepted the vote.... I tested a bit more, but wasn't able to vote a third time utill I used Internet Explorer.. So what the heck is in your useragent that can track you?
Is there something in your useragent that's really so unique to only you, or is it something else?
Help me get some sleep here lol

Actress Mona Freeman Dies at 87
Actress Mona Freeman, cast as a perpetual teenager throughout the 1940s and '50s in such films as The Heiress, Junior Miss, Dear Ruth and I Was a Shoplifter, has died. She was 87.
Freeman died May 23 in her Beverly Hills home after a long illness, her daughter, actress Monie Ellis, told the Los Angeles Times.
Freeman also was a painter, whose portrait of Mary See has been displayed for years in See's Candies stores across the U.S.
Freeman played Marian Almond, the cousin of Olivia de Havilland's character who gets engaged in William Wyler's acclaimed film The Heiress (1949). In Junior Miss (1945), she starred as 13-year-old Lois Graves, who with her older sister (Peggy Ann Garner) meddle in people's love lives. And she portrayed Ziggy, who learns some terrible habits from her mother in That Brennan Girl (1946).
Freeman also starred as Miriam Wilkins, a teen who has a pen-pal romance with a soldier (William Holden) during World War II but signs her older sister's name to the letters, in Dear Ruth (1947). She then reprised the role in Dear Wife (1949) and Dear Brat (1951).
The blonde and youthful Freeman also appeared in such films as Till We Meet and Again Together Again, both released in 1944; the musical Mother Wore Tights (1947), as the daughter of Betty Grable's character; Streets of Laredo (1949), opposite Holden and Macdonald Carey; I Was a Shoplifter (1950), as a petty thief and daughter of a judge; and Otto Preminger's Angel Face (1952).
Her TV work included episodes of Maverick, Perry Mason, Wagon Train, The Millionaire and Branded. Her final onscreen credit came in the 1972 telefilm Welcome Home, Johnny Bristol.
Always cast as a bobbysoxer even as she approached age 30, Freeman became bored with acting and turned to portrait painting.
Born in Baltimore, Freeman worked as a teenage model in New York City and was named "Miss Subways" in 1941, the first one picked. She was signed to her first movie contract by RKO's Howard Hughes.
In addition to Ellis -- who starred as Gidget in the 1972 TV movie Gidget Gets Married -- survivors include six grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

July 25—A lack of qualifying health insurance this year could result in fines of up to $2,448 for individuals and $12,240 for families, according to specific parameters set this week by the IRS.
The maximum for individuals and families of five or more members were created under the Affordable Care Act's (ACA's) individual mandate that established tax penalties of 1 percent of annual household income if they make more than $19,650. Those with incomes below that amount would result in a $95 annual fine, while no fines would result for noncompliant residents with incomes less than $10,150.
The individual mandate penalties are scheduled to increase to $325 or 2 percent of income in 2015 and $695 or 2.5 percent of income in 2016. The federal government plans to start applying the tax penalty in 2015, based on 2014 tax returns.
The maximum penalties described this week would be triggered by individuals earning more than $244,800 and by families with incomes of $1.2 million.The IRS used the Bronze level plans to calculate how much individuals should be fined. Insurance plans under the Bronze level meet the minimum insurance requirements for all adults under the ACA.
The individual mandate is expected to result in $46 billion in tax penalties from 2015 to 2024, according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO).
The Obama administration also signaled this week that it intends to continue with the rollout next year of the long-delayed employer mandate.The IRS posted draft forms that employers with more than 100 employees would need to provide to employees to satisfy the mandate, which has been twice delayed past its statutory start date by the administration.
The mandate's delay also is the focus of a lawsuit by the House of Representatives alleging President Barack Obama has exceeded his constitutional powers by failing to implement laws as written.
The forms drew early criticism from some employer groups as insufficient for them to meet the new ACA requirement.
A growing chorus of ACA supporters has called for cancelling or repealing the employer mandate as a non-essential requirement that will produce additional political complications for the law.
Most mid-sized businesses that employ 50 to 99 full-time workers will have another year to provide health insurance coverage to employees, according to a timeline released by the Department of Treasury and the IRS in February. These employers will not face fines for failing to provide coverage to workers until 2016.
Failure to comply with the employer mandate is expected to result in $139 billion in tax penalties from 2015 to 2024, according to the CBO.
