About 30 painters from across Colorado and the West are setting up their easels, brushes and palettes on Routt County roadsides this week. As part of the fourth annual Art Event, a fundraiser for Steamboat Art Museum, the artists will create a series of works through the week to sell and auction at a Friday reception and Saturday barbecue. Shirley Stocks, president/ curator for Steamboat Art Museum and co-owner of Wild Horse Gallery, was among the artists working at Rehder Ranch Nature Preserve on Tuesday afternoon. Now in their fourth year, the plein air painting sessions — “plein air” artists create work in the field — include stops across the county. Participating artists will put their three best canvasses up for sale at the end of the week, Stocks said. John Brassell, a Steamboat Springs native who is studying fine art in San Francisco, took a week vacation from school to participate in The Art Event. “I had actually attended a few of these before when I lived here, just to watch the artists paint, and this is the first time they had invited me out,” Brassell said.

If you go What: The Art Event 2009, a fundraiser for Steamboat Art Museum When: Opening reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday; plein air quick-draw competition and barbecue from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday Where: Friday reception at the Steamboat Art Museum, 801 Lincoln Ave.; quick-draw and barbecue at Wolf Run Ranch, Routt County Road 33 Cost: Reception is free; quick-draw event and barbecue is $25 for adults and $15 for children; tickets available at Steamboat Art Museum and Wild Horse Gallery Call: 870-1755

Art Event paintings will be on display and for sale at a free public reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday at the museum. From 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, participating artists will gather at Wolf Run Ranch off Routt County Road 33 for a two-hour quickdraw competition. Paintings will be up for silent auction after the competition ends, and the Yampa Valley Boys will provide live music during a catered barbecue lunch. Tickets for the Saturday event are $25 for adults and $15 for children and are available in advance at the museum and at Wild Horse Gallery. “It’s one of the rare times that you can actually go out and watch a painting come together and see exactly how it’s done,” Stocks said.

With less than a week remaining for potential candidates to gather signatures and submit a petition to run for the Steamboat Springs City Council, Kenny Reisman is still the only candidate running for the seat being vacated by termlimited City Council President Loui Antonucci. Reisman, a local businessman, said the 13 years he spent teaching middle and high school students instilled in him a sense of duty to one day run for office. In civics classes, Reisman said, he always did an exercise with his students in which they talked about citizenship and its requirements. Practices such as voting and paying your taxes made the list, but Reisman said running for office always came out on top. See Reisman, page 15

COMMENTARY

No harm in marijuana moratorium

he Steamboat Springs City Council took appropriate action Tuesday night by approving an emergency moratorium on medical marijuana dispensaries until an ordinance providing parameters for such facilities is drafted AT ISSUE and adopted. Medical The 90-day moratorimarijuana um has no effect on two dispensaries dispensaries that opened within the past couple of days. The moraOUR VIEW torium will, however, City is right temporarily block the to enact opening of several other moratorium Steamboat dispensaries while that City Manager Jon Roberts said are in the ordinance works. is drafted. The city has no intention of preventing medical marijuana dispensaries — stores where licensed patients can purchase marijuana — from operating in Steamboat Springs, nor should it. Amendment 20, passed by Colorado voters in 2000 — and overwhelmingly approved by Routt County voters — allows approved patients with certain debilitating conditions to use marijuana for medicinal purposes. Those conditions and diseases include cancer, glaucoma, HIV/ AIDS, cachexia, severe pain, severe nausea, seizures and persistent muscle spasms. Patients who have been enrolled on the state’s medical marijuana user registry can possess as much as 2 ounces of marijuana at a time, and they can grow as many as six plants, with only three of them being at maturity at any given time. Patients are granted a medical marijuana license after

receiving a recommendation from their physician and completing the state application, which includes a $90 processing fee. But the law is vague in many areas, including dispensaries. And that’s where local ordinances can and should play a role. Fortunately, Steamboat officials aren’t alone in their quest to provide reasonable, measured restrictions on medical marijuana dispensaries. Silverthorne, Frisco and Breckenridge each have enacted 90-day moratoriums on processing business applications for marijuana dispensaries. Roberts said the city plans to use ordinances crafted by other municipalities as blueprints for Steamboat’s dispensary rules. As previously expressed by Steamboat Springs Director of Public Safety JD Hays, any potential ordinance likely would govern a dispensary’s business hours, security features, location and proximity to schools. City Planning and Community Development Director Tom Leeson has said a dispensary classifies as a medical office under existing city ordinance. Therefore, after obtaining a sales tax license, a sign permit and a building permit for a tenant finish, a dispensary could open anywhere in the city a medical office is allowed. We’re more concerned about security and hours of operation. We expect that local law enforcement agencies will keep an eye on any dispensaries, and we expect dispensary owners and employees to sell medical marijuana only to licensed patients. If that’s the case, there should be less of a concern about where a dispensary is located than with its security features. A Boulder dispensary, for example, had two, 20-gallon barrels of marijuana stolen

from it in June. Of course, it’s hard to determine what the actual demand for local dispensaries will be. Dispensaries themselves are not accounted for in state law, but rather arose out of the law’s “caregiver” provision. Patients who don’t want to grow their own marijuana can establish a single caregiver and give that person their grow rights. The same person can be a caregiver to an unlimited number of patients, meaning he or she can acquire more and more grow rights. Dispensaries arose when it became more practical to open a storefront than to make individual deliveries, said Brian Vicente, a Colorado attorney and executive director of medical marijuana advocates Sensible Colorado. There are 34 registered medical marijuana patients in Routt County, making up about three-tenths of 1 percent of the state’s approximately 9,000 registered patients. But as the state roll swells, so could the local number. There’s been a significant increase in the number of licensed patients in the past two years, particularly men younger than 30 who sought medical marijuana to treat “chronic pain.” We share the concerns of some state medical officials that the law, as currently written, remains prone to abuse. But we also respect the will of Coloradans and the potential benefits of medical marijuana for those patients who qualify to use it for legitimate purposes. For that reason, the city is taking the right approach by not attempting to block the opening of local dispensaries but rather making sure any future dispensaries are operated in a way that is safe and respectful of the entire community.

LIVE TRIVIA ��

Letters continued from 8 boat houses that cost more to serve than they contribute. Every single house in Steamboat is also a net loser, tax-wise. That’s why we rely so heavily on tourism to pay our bills; that’s why we’ve never seen a tourism-related activity that we didn’t like; and that’s why any downturn in the national economy quickly forces us to make cuts in local city services. The solution, which I have been trying unsuccessfully to sell for years, is an honest, objective, scientific re-examination of our city tax structure. Right now, it’s regressive, unfair and unproductive. Steamboat 700 — and the house that’s being built next door to you — will only exacerbate the problem. We can and must address this difficult and unpopular issue before it eats us alive.

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Health care Why do so many Canadians come to the U.S. for health care? This question is raised in defense of the status quo in the current health insurance debate. The answer is quite simple. Once you know your health problem and have the funds to go anywhere, the U.S. does have the more advanced health care delivery system. The incentives in our health care economy drive scarce resources to specialty care. No matter what program is adopted by Congress, this structural problem will not be solved. Primary-care physicians are a dying breed being replaced (somewhat) by ER physicians who can bill at up to five times what an office-based physician can bill and to whose bill the hospital in which he/she works can double or triple that amount. Health insurance made available for everyone will solve one problem but increase another. Once a person has

been entered into the sickness care system and is piling up bills for necessary and non-necessary services, his out-of-pocket charges will be significantly reduced and the onus of bankruptcy will likewise decline. But it will increase another. There is no way to avoid the cost of the ER because there are not enough primary-care physicians to handle the onslaught of an additional 46 million financially capable users. Canada has a ratio of one primary care physician to about one specialist. The U.S. ratio is more like 1:3. No wonder Canadians who can pay come to the states for care. No wonder Canadian doctors trained to be specialists like to work in the states, where their income is so much greater. It is the different structure of health care personnel and concomitant availability of services in our two countries that produce the cross-border demand, nothing else.

Alice Rivlin caps this year’s round of Seminars at Steamboat Blythe Terrell

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Alice Rivlin thinks the recession has created a chance to fix the nation’s economic system. Rivlin is a senior fellow in the Economic Studies Program at The Brookings Institution, is a former vice chairwoman of the Federal Reserve Board and was the first director of the Congressional Budget Office. The Rivlin economist speaks Thursday afternoon at the final Seminars at Steamboat event. Her talk is called “The Future of Capitalism, How to Preserve What Works and How to Make It Work Better.” “I want to talk about the opportunities that we have now to repair our economic system, and particularly market capitalism, and do some of the things that we probably should have done a long

time ago but that are dramatized by this crisis,” Rivlin said. Those tasks include finding new ways to regulate the financial market and protecting vulnerable members of society, she said. Part of that latter task involves reforming the U.S. health care system. An ailing health care system puts pressure on the economy in a couple of ways, Rivlin said. “The rising cost of health care is a major problem for the economy going forward and particularly for the federal budget because the rising costs of Medicare and Medicaid are driving future federal budget deficits,” she said. The second part relates to the labor force. “We have a lot of people who’ve been uninsured for a long time,” Rivlin said, “but the exposure of people who are losing their jobs and losing their health care has really dramatized the problem and made it more urgent to get it fixed.” Jane Stein, a founder and board member for the Seminars at Steamboat, said Rivlin had

strong credentials as a speaker about the economy. “She’s a leading expert,” Stein said. “She’s a leading economist. She had been the director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, which is an appointment that has to be approved by Congress, by the Senate, so it’s a very high position.” Rivlin will address an issue that’s on the tip of many people’s tongues, Stein said. “I haven’t seen any polls, but the economy would be up there among issues that people in the U.S. care about,” she said.

At tonight’s Hayden School Board meeting, board members will discuss new bus routes and implications to local schools of the Home Rule Charter that town voters approved last month. The bus issue was raised in June when a group of parents circulated a petition opposing

a rumor that the district was considering cutting service to students who live in town. At the time, Superintendent Greg Rockhold said the district was exploring what cost savings the district could realize with the possibility of cutting the service. But he said that exploration was in the earliest stage and that no determination had See Hayden, page 17

700 dividirían el costo del proyecto de las escuelas

La escuela del distrito de Steamboat Springs ha llegado a un acuerdo tentativo con los promotores inmobiliarios de Steamboat 700, dijo la Superintendente Shallee Cunnigham, el jueves pasado. Cunninngham dijo que los abogados del distrito y los promotores inmobiliarios estuvieron diseñando el acuerdo para dividir el costo que sería necesario para la escuela, como resultado del desarrollo propuesto del nuevo anexo al oeste de Steamboat Springs. También expandirían la Escuela Secundaria de Steamboat Springs la cual está incluida en el acuerdo del costo compartido. Ella dijo que el acuerdo seria presentado a la Junta Directiva de la escuela de Steamboat Springs en Agosto 24. Cunningham entregó la presentación a la Junta Directiva durante el segundo día de la

reunión de su plan de trabajo y fijó metas para el próximo ano escolar , el cual también comienza el 24 de agosto. El acuerdo incluye $25millones para una capacidad de 600 estudiantes en el colegio de los grados kindergarten hasta el octavo grado y 5 millones para expandir la escuela secundaria. El director y Gerente del Proyecto Steamboat 700 Danny Mulcahy , dijo el jueves que el costo de la transferencia de bienes raíces pagaría por su parte del proyecto entregando un 0.5 por ciento de todas las ventas de los inmuebles. Él dijo que habrían montos dedicados al proyecto hasta que la mitad de la parte del Steamboat 700 sea cubierta para construir la nueva escuela y expandir la secundaria, mientras el proyecto permanezca consistente como está escrito hoy día. “Trabajar con la escuela del distrito ha sido un largo proceso”, dijo Mulcahy. “Están

muy entusiasmados los diferentes miembros de la Junta Directiva de la escuela con los que he conversado acerca del proyecto”. Después de la reunión, el Presidente de la Junta Directiva de la Escuela Robin Crossan, dijo que en el desarrollo del proyecto Steamboat 700 podría haber varios cientos de nuevos estudiantes en el distrito. El acuerdo es importante para el desarrollo y el crecimiento del distrito escolar, dijo ella. Mulcahy dijo que era muy difícil predecir cuándo el compromiso del proyecto Steamboat 700 podría ser alcanzado. Indicó que esto depende de las ventas y los precios de las casas La Junta Directiva de la ciudad de Steamboat Springs ha programado una primer y segunda lectura de las ordenanzas para el 22 de setiembre y 13 de octubre. Mulcahy dijo que la fecha tentativa para el

proyecto que incluye la construcción de las primeras 2,000 casas seria potencialmente para el 2,012. Se anticipa que la finalización de la construcción tomará unos 20 años. Cunningham dijo que la construcción de la escuela dependerá de cuando el distrito escolar decida incluir la opción en la balota y decida comenzar a construir. Añadió, sin embargo, que la demanda para una nueva escuela seria inmediata con el desarrollo del proyecto Steamboat 700. Ella indicó que los planes del distrito para la nueva escuela podrían ser más claros cuando el Distrito Escolar devele el plan principal el próximo año. Otras noticias de la escuela. Leah Henderson, Gerente de la oficina del Distrito, dijo el jueves que el distrito no tendrá que convocar a ningún padre de familia a la corte de pequeñas quejas, con la finalidad de cobrar la pensión del kindergarten por día completo.

Your Portal to Meaningful Community Involvement STEAMBOAT SPRINGS CHAMBER RESORT ASSOCIATION

In 1998, Leadership Steamboat was recognized in John T. Boal’s Be a Global Force of One in Your Hometown as one of “202 Common Sense, Human & Portable Ways to Restore Our Communities, Our Schools & Ourselves.” This book looked at programs nationally and identified the Steamboat Springs program as being “an innovative nine-month community leadership program … (that) has helped propel Steamboat Springs to be named as the No. 2 rated small town in The 100 Best Small Towns in America.” Started in 1992, Leadership Steamboat is one of the longest running programs of its type in Colorado. It is a collaborative effort between the Steamboat Springs Chamber Resort Association and Colorado Mountain College and owes a debt of gratitude to the late Bill Hill, its first program facilitator. In the early years, the program was primarily classroom instruction with some added community interaction. With feedback from each class, the program has evolved into more community based education with hands-on experiential learning and involvement.

Seek first to understand In many ways, Leadership Steamboat strives to follow one of the habits listed in Stephen Covey’s well-read “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People,” which says “Seek first to understand, then to be understood.” As Covey notes, “Before the problems come up, before you try to evaluate and prescribe, before you try to present your own ideas — seek to understand. It’s a powerful habit of effective interdependence.”

Leadership Steamboat course outline ■ Sept. 17 and 18: Orientation retreat (half day Thursday, all day Friday) ■ Oct. 9: Community issues ■ Nov. 6: Community field trip — agriculture and land conservation/individual and group project planning ■ Dec. 4: Professional development — getting things done — Yampa Valley style (open to the public) ■ Jan. 8: Community field trip — mining/group project planning ■ Jan. 22: Yampa Valley businesses ■ Feb. 12: Political action (city and county) ■ March 5: Community infrastructure ■ March 26: Public service forum ■ April 16: Regional perspective field trip ■ May 19 and 20: Economic summit 2010 (tentative dates) ■ June 4: Final retreat ■ June 23: Graduation

Often participants come to the Leadership Steamboat opening retreat with very clear ideas about what should be done to make Steamboat Springs a better place to be. The solutions seem obvious and simple. However, through the next nine months, the complexity and ambiguity of the issues becomes apparent. Solutions are not simple, or they would have been done. The class has the opportunity to meet community leaders from the nonprofit, private and public sectors and see the passion and commitment these individuals have and truly understand the different perspectives. “Every year is unique, the

experience is customized to the group dynamics of the class,” noted co-facilitator, Sandy Evans Hall, executive vice president of the Chamber. “As facilitators, we set out a direction, but the path is defined by the individuals that choose to participate. The class has input on the panels of presenters, the selection of topics, their individual project and the group project each year.”

New ‘City Tour’ and reading Hall and co-facilitators Grant Fenton, from Steamboat Investments and a former class member, and Randy Rudasics, the manager at the Small Business Resource Center at Colorado Mountain College and another former class member, have added a couple of new elements to the program. One is a required reading of “Leadership is an Art,” by Herman Miller Corp.’s former CEO, Max De

��

Pree. The other is a City Tour for the regional perspective day where community leaders will join the class on a visit to another similar community in Colorado to see how that community is tackling various issues that we share. The City Tour will provide two avenues for learning for the class. The first is the regional perspective that one gets from getting outside his or her “box.” Seeing a similar problem addressed in a different way opens the mind to new possibilities. The second opportunity for the class is an opportunity to get to know the other community members on the bus and better understand their thoughts on community issues. “We’re very excited about this new opportunity for the class, and look forward to making it an annual event,” Fenton said. The 2009-10 class also is the

first for required reading material. “We chose ‘Leadership is an Art’ because it is an easy book to read yet is so filled with profound wisdom and human examples that is very engaging. A group discussion of the basic premises of De Pree’s book is a perfect jumping-off point for the year,” Rudasics said. As De Pree writes in the preface, “Community is where it happens. In communities we are all given opportunities and a chance to make the most of them. Only in communities can we set meaningful goals and measure our performance. Only in communities do we grow and prosper as persons and reach our potential. Only in communities do we respect and honor and thank the people who contribute to our interdependent lives.” And discovering community is what Leadership Steamboat is all about.

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

In the course of putting together a book chronicling her 4 1/2-year circumnavigation on a 33-foot sailboat, Bonnie McGee found a scrap of paper from a Scrabble game she played at a distant port more than 20 years ago. On the back of the scorecard, the Steamboat Springs artist and author found two scrawled distances for the route back home: one took her and her companion through the Red Sea, the other around the Cape of Good Hope. “We were figuring out, ‘Where in the world do we want to go tomorrow?’ … And that kind of feeling I knew I would never experience again in my life,” McGee said. During the two decades since McGee returned from her trip, she’s compiled stories and photos from the people she met along the way. Those people are at the heart of “Voices on the Wind,” a coffee-table-style book published in February. McGee will sign copies of the book at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at the Bud Werner Memorial

Monday is last day to file petition to run Reisman continued from 3 “That definitely had an impact on me,” said Reisman, who has a master’s degree in political science. “The notion of throwing yourself out there. … I’ll work as hard as I can to try and figure out the intricacies of all the issues. I’ll listen to people in this community. Through that I’ll make practical decisions on the issues I’m confronted with.” Reisman considered running for City Council in 2007 but did not meet residency requirements. Reisman, who is originally from New York, lived in Steamboat through the early 90s, left and returned in 2007. He has a wife and two young children. His business ventures include a real estate investment business and a small property management firm. He and his wife soon will launch Sweet Dreamzzz, a business that will sell CDs with stories on them that help young children sleep through the night. Reisman said the idea is loosely based on meditation principles. Reisman, 40, is also a volunteer soccer coach. Reisman said he is most-

ly supportive of the current City Council, which has come under attack by some other candidates. One criticism has been that City Council is rushing Steamboat 700, the proposed master-planned community of about 500 acres and 2,000 homes seeking annexation. But Reisman said he has no problem with a vote on the annexation taking place in the fall as scheduled. “So long as they feel they have all the information to make the vote, then they should take the vote,” he said. “The plans that are in place have called for growth to go in that area and for growth to be concentrated. (Steamboat) 700 accomplishes both of those things. … Based upon everything I know, I would vote for it.” Reisman has been preparing himself by attending recent City Council meetings. He also was a member of the Excellence Project, creators of the social host ordinance passed by council in a 4-3 vote earlier this year. The law allows authorities to fine adults found guilty of knowingly providing a location for underage drinking. “I was in favor of it because

I thought it was important for the safety of our kids,” Reisman said. Four out of seven City Council seats are up for election this year. Other candidates who have confirmed their candidacy include incumbent Councilman Walter Magill, who holds a District 3 seat; incumbent Councilwoman Cari Hermacinski, who holds council’s two-year, at-large seat but said she will run for the four-year, District 1 seat being vacated by term-limited Councilman Steve Ivancie; former City Council President Kevin Bennett, who also is running for the District 1 seat; and local landscaper Kyle Pietras, who is expected to run for the at-large seat. Nomination petitions are available at the City Clerk’s Office in City Hall on 10th Street. The last day to file a petition is Monday. Reisman said he hopes an opponent will surface in time. “Dialogue is good,” he said. “It’s healthy. If you can have that during a campaign, that’s good.”

The ordinance likely will regulate dispensaries’ hours, their proximity to schools and other areas where children congregate, their required security features and other items. Kevin Fisher presented documents to council including a list of 26 guidelines Rocky Mountain Remedies intends to follow and a patient release form. An ordinance is expected to be brought to City Council before the 90-day moratorium expires. In approving the moratorium, Councilman Steve Ivancie said council was not expressing its opinion about medical marijuana one way or the other but simply giving itself some time to create appropriate land-use regulations governing the dispensaries.

That expansion has been aided by several developments that have made dispensaries more tenable and less risky. Colorado’s Amendment 20 made the medical use of marijuana legal, with restrictions and a doctor’s recommendation, beginning in 2001. Although marijuana still is illegal federally, the Obama Administration has decided to stop raids on operations that are compliant with their states laws. Last month, the budding industry received another boost from the Colorado Board of Health, which rejected a proposed rule that would have restricted medical marijuana providers to five medical marijuana patients each. The number of registered medical marijuana in the state stands at about 9,000 and is expected to increase to 15,000 by the end of the year, according to the state health department.

School Board will be asked to OK hires Hayden continued from 11 even been considered. Parents’ concerns were alleviated in July, when Transportation Director Festus Hagins presented the School Board with a proposal that would reduce the number of bus stops from 42 to 16. Hagins said by eliminating stops, some children would have to walk as far as half a mile but would not have to cross U.S. Highway 40, a concern raised by parents when the rumor arose that the district would cut service. Hagins said the new bus routes would allow the district to save money by eliminating wear and tear on vehicles. Rockhold said Tuesday that Hagins was working on pickup times for each stop, which weren’t presented during the

presentation in July. The board also will be asked whether to approve the new bus schedule and routes. Hayden Town Manager Russ Martin will give board members a presentation about how approval of the Home Rule Charger could affect the district, Rockhold said. The change from statutory to home rule allows the Hayden Town Council to decide whether to put new tax initiatives on ballots. Rockhold said the change also would allow the School Board to put a tax before voters. Other action items include approving the capital expenditures, the student activity fee schedule, free and reduced meal policy, child nutrition program renewal agreement, a resolution to participate in the November election, the Na-

tional Incident Management System resolution with the Routt County Schools Safety and Security Task Force, and a memo of understanding with Northwest Colorado Board of Cooperative Educational Services to support the preschool program. The board also will be asked to approve the hires of a halftime kindergarten paraprofessional, a literacy teacher for Hayden Middle School and a Hayden High School volleyball coach. The board also will be asked to renew some classified staff members. Rockhold said those would complete the district’s new hires for the 2009-10 school year, which begins Sept. 8.

A 3.7, he added, is a nondamaging event. “It’s enough that people nearby will definitely feel it, but you don’t expect any damage with a quake like that,” Blakeman said. By 5 p.m. Tuesday, 159 people in four states reported feeling Monday night’s earthquake to the NEIC. Most of the callers, 138 of them, were in Craig and reported an intensity level of 3, which is a weak shaking that generally occurs with no damage.

Analysts from the National Earthquake Information Center in Golden have adjusted the magnitude of an earthquake that occurred Monday night north of Craig. Originally, the NEIC reported the event, which originated 12 miles north of Craig, as 4.4 on the Richter Scale. It occurred at 8:55 p.m., the NEIC reported.

After more information became available and further analysis was conducted, the NEIC adjusted the magnitude to 3.7. Don Blakeman, an NEIC earthquake analyst, said the agency typically releases a preliminary magnitude to get information out to the public. “Sometimes the magnitude hasn’t been looked at as carefully,” Blakeman said. “Our mission is to get the information out as quickly as we can.”

Ritter unveils budget cuts Governor’s plan to affect prisons and medical programs A summary of budget cuts proposed Tuesday by Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter: ■ Eliminate increases for prison academic and vocational training programs, reducing the programs’ ability to serve an additional 2,000 offenders. ■ Eliminate a pilot program for 200 parolees who need mental health and substance abuse treatment. ■ Accelerate parole for eligible offenders who have achieved parole goals. ■ Reduce rates for Medicaid providers by 1.5 percent. ■ Lower the cap on non-medical transportation services to two trips per week from the current average of 3.3 trips per week. ■ Cut pharmacy reimbursement rates. ■ Eliminate the Function Family Therapy Program providing services to youths at risk of out-of-home placement. ■ Close 59 beds at the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Fort Logan, including the Children’s, Adolescents and Geriatric units, and transfer patients to community facilities. ■ Close the Nursing Facility at Grand Junction Regional Center and move 32 “medically fragile” patients from the state operated Grand Junction Regional Center to community nursing facilities. One hundred twenty-five beds will remain in Grand Junction. ■ Suspend the Aid to Needy and Disabled, State Only Program, which provides interim financial assistance to persons awaiting federal assistance. ■ Impose a $10.50 fee for gun purchase background checks. — The Associated Press

��

Gov. Bill Ritter on Tuesday laid out his plan to cut $320 million from the state budget this year, including the elimination of as many as 266 state employees and cuts to medical programs and prison services. Ritter said he did his best to protect critical programs necessary for public safety and welfare, but tough cuts had to be made. He also said he protected programs needed to help Coloradans who are struggling because of the economy. “There is a lot of sacrifice that Colorado residents will be making,” he told the Legislature’s Joint Budget Committee. Sen. Abel Tapia, D-Pueblo, asked how people will be kept safe if the state reduces its mandatory five-year parole requirement for felons. Ritter assured lawmakers the public would not be at risk. “There’s pretty good evidence a five-year mandatory parole is actually too long,” said Ritter, a former Denver district attorney. “A person fails or makes it in the first two or three years.” Ritter plans to issue an executive order that will take effect Sept. 1, but he will need legislative approval for some of his proposals, including a $10.50 fee for background checks for gun purchases. He said some of the state

funds could be replaced with federal stimulus funding and other budget transfers. Hardest hit are the departments of Corrections, Health Care Policy and Financing, and Human Services. Ritter proposed cutting $25 million from corrections, including the elimination of 34 jobs providing academic and vocational training for about 2,000 new inmates, and programs for mental health and substance abuse. About $19 million would be saved by providing a shorter parole term for offenders who achieve their parole goals early. Hospital provider rates would be cut by 1.5 percent, and nonmedical transportation would be limited to two trips a week. Pharmacy rates for medication also would be slashed, saving $1.7 million, and a 32-bed nursing facility in Grand Junction would be closed after those patients are shipped to community nursing facilities. A program that provides $200 a month to 6,400 needy and disabled people while they wait for federal assistance also would be suspended Jan. 1. Ritter said under the plan, critical programs would be protected, and he promised there will be no reduction in the number of medically indigent patients being served.

Bear attacks woman in Aspen THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AROUND COLORADO DENVER

Wildlife officers are looking for a bear that forced its way into a home and attacked the homeowner, and may have been behind other break-ins in the Aspen area this summer. The unidentified woman suffered deep scratches to her back and chest when the bear struck at her late Monday, but she didn’t have to be hospitalized, said Randy Hampton, spokesman for the Colorado Division of Wildlife. Hampton said the bear forced its way in through French doors that were closed but not locked. Based on how it entered the house and its description, officers think the same bear may have entered and tried to break into other homes in the area. They plan to euthanize the bear if they find it. “Bears that break into secured homes and bears that are aggressive toward people are too dangerous to relocate,” the division’s area wildlife manager Perry Will said. Bears are normally tagged the first time they’re caught getting in trash or being a nuissance in some other way. If they strike again, they’re put down. However, Hampton said any time bears show aggression toward humans, wildlife officers will try to kill them. Aspen police and wildlife officers have been busy with bear calls all summer. Hampton said finding a bear in a car or a house — because it broke open a door or walked in through an open door — is a daily occurrence. Aspen, a magnet for the rich and famous, also happens to be built in some of the best black

bear habitat in North America. Hampton said the resort town has one of the most aggressive campaigns to educate people about living in bear country, including the danger of not securing trash or leaving bird feeders outside. He said the city is also urging residents to lock their doors in the relatively lowcrime community. However, he said even if a few people don’t cooperate, it’s impossible to keep the bears at bay despite all those efforts. In Monday’s case, wildlife officers say the woman was in her home at about 10:10 p.m. when she passed by the entryway on her way to her home office. She told them her dog began barking and then she was confronted by a large bear. She screamed and then turned to open the front door to get the bear to leave and the bear struck her, scratching her. She fled to a bedroom upstairs and called 911. The bear remained in the house for a short time and left as police responded.

Angler burned by wildfire testifies in arson trial GLENWOOD SPRINGS

A fisherman who was injured in a western Colorado wildfire last year says he was afraid he was going to burn to death. Larry Garfinkle testified Monday in the trial of rancher Larry Gerbaz, who is charged with arson in the April 2008 fire near Carbondale. Garfinkle suffered serious burns to his head and one hand. He testified he was burned as he was lowering himself into a creek to avoid the flames. The fire also damaged four

houses. Prosecutors say Gerbaz failed to extinguish a debris fire that flared up and spread. Defense attorney Tom Silverman says no one knows how the fire started because many landowners had burn permits and winds were so strong that embers could have blown long distances.

Defense says man in kidnapping was drunk COLORADO SPRINGS

A defense lawyer says a Colorado Springs man accused of beating, binding and kidnapping a woman was drunk and trying to get a ride. Both sides made opening statements Monday in the trial of 42-year-old Timothy Allen Clapp, charged with kidnapping, robbery, assault, car theft and being a habitual criminal. Prosecutors say Clapp attacked the 59-year-old woman with a piece of wood in May 2008, bound and gagged her with duct tape and then drove away in her car, with her in the back. She was able to loosen the tape and call police on her cell phone. Defense attorney Kim Chalmers says Clapp put the woman through an “awful ordeal” after going on a vodka bender. But Chalmers says Clapp didn’t beat or rob the woman.

75M swine flu shots delayed

��

Lauran Neergaard THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

��

WASHINGTON 20494412

��

STEAMBOAT TODAY

Faced with an unexpected delay, health officials are trying to counter new problems with swine flu vaccine production including a logjam at factories that put the precious liquid into syringes. The newest calculations show the nation won’t have the longpromised 120 million doses ready to dispense by Oct. 15, but just 45 million instead. It appears to be more of a delay than a shortage: More are expected to arrive rapidly, about 20 million doses shipped every week, according to the latest estimates

by the Department of Health and Human Services. “Hopefully there are ways to bring that number up,” Dr. Robin Robinson, the department’s chief of vaccine procurement, said Tuesday. “We’re trying to bring on more manufacturing” for the final packaging step, he said, such as having companies that finish first share their facilities with stragglers. Swine flu vaccinations still are planned for mid-October, and Robinson noted that 45 million doses means a lot of people inoculated. Add in the weekly deliveries, and there should be 85 million doses on hand by October’s end, and the full 195

million the government has ordered by December, the longset date for final delivery. But he acknowledged that if there are early outbreaks in September and October, there could be higher-than-anticipated demand for the swine flu vaccine. “As we’ve all along said, if things can go wrong they will,” Robinson said. Manufacturers around the world revealed in July that they were having serious problems brewing the vaccine. The chief ingredient is grown in eggs, and companies were getting far fewer doses per egg than they usually do for regular winter flu vaccine.

Obama sees peace opportunity WASHINGTON

President Barack Obama won lavish praise from his Egyptian counterpart Tuesday and spoke of an “extraordinary opportunity” for making peace in the Middle East, saying he was encouraged by U.S. efforts to restart talks between Israel and the Palestinians. Seated next to President Hosni Mubarak, who was making his first visit to the U.S. capital in five years, Obama thanked his Egyptian counterpart for joining him in trying to construct a deal that has eluded world leaders

for more than six decades. Returning the compliment, Mubarak asserted that Obama’s speech to the Muslim world — delivered in Obama Cairo earlier this summer — had convinced Arabs the United States truly was an honest broker. The 81-year-old Egyptian leader, who was estranged from the Bush administration, said Obama had “removed all doubts about the United States and the Muslim world.” Mubarak said, “The Islamic world had thought that the

U.S. was against Islam, but (Obama’s) great, fantastic address there has removed all those doubts.” Obama’s positive assessment of the peace effort was issued in response to a question about reports that Israel had stopped granting permission for new settlements in the West Bank, even though building in progress was continuing. Obama has made a resumption of peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians one of his key foreign policy goals, hoping a breakthrough there would lead to wider agreements among the Jewish state and the Arab world.

Hacker indictment unlikely to end thefts SAN FRANCISCO

This week’s indictment of a hacker thought to be responsible for the biggest retail-store data breaches in U.S. history doesn’t necessarily make shoppers safer from having their credit card numbers plundered. Accomplices to the crimes are thought to be on the loose in Russia or other countries where U.S. authorities are less likely to get them. And the underlying security holes mined by the

hackers still exist in many payment networks. Albert Gonzalez, a Miami hacker who once worked as a government mole tracking down identity thieves, is accused of playing a critical role in all the largest credit-card heists on record. With Monday’s indictment of Gonzalez on conspiracy charges in U.S. District Court in New Jersey, the Justice Department says he helped steal 130 million card numbers from payment processor Heartland Payment Systems, 4.2 million card num-

The man told authorities the dogs never behaved aggressively toward him and that he did not think the dogs had killed the couple. “Sometimes the pack mentality can play a role. One dog gets aroused and that revs up his buddies,” Goldfarb said. The dogs were aggressive toward authorities who rounded them up using traps and tranquilizers, Huff said. At one point, a group of them cornered two people against a vehicle. There were no signs the dogs were rabid, Huff said.

A shredded piece of shirt, some strands of hair and bloodstained dirt are all that remain along the rural stretch of road where authorities think a pack of wild dogs fatally mauled an elderly couple.

Paramedics who came to the grisly scene Saturday morning found the suspected attackers

It was the same group of medium-sized, mixed-breed dogs Sherry Schweder worried about, wondering whether anyone was taking care of them as she saw them wander around.

In 2005, a rebellious and sporadically employed Israeli man flew to New York to give up a kidney to save an American businessman.

But the kidney donor, 39year-old Nick Rosen, of Tel Aviv, says that doesn’t matter. “I smoke pot.

We’ve got your next job down to a science

resonance to claims that a black market for kidneys has thrived even in the United States. Rosen made a video about his transplant experience, and near the end of it, he is seen reclining on a bed piled with cash. A subtitle says: “This is what $20,000 looks like.” It’s hard to tell the amount, but the $100 face of Ben Franklin is visible on the bills.

His tale of organ trafficking might be incredible if he had not made the video — and if the issue of black market organs had not burst into public view with the recent arrest of a New Yorker accused of brokering a kidney sale. Rosen does not know that man, who as far as he knows, had nothing to do with his own transaction.

ANALYSIS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KABUL

An open secret among U.S. officials in Kabul is that Afghanistan was the Bush administration’s second-string war. After years of neglect, Taliban violence skyrocketed, prompting President Barack Obama to boost the American commitment — in guns and gold. Now, the winner of Thursday’s presidential election and his international partners face a daunting game of catch-up if they are to turn the tide of the Taliban insurgency. They will all confront the added challenge of growing war-weariness among Afghans, Americans and other nations that provide troops. Resources are tight among coalition members facing their own domestic economic problems. The international community is desperate for an Afghan president seen as capable of tackling the problems of insurgency, narcotics and government corruption. Obama and other world leaders need such a colleague to give hope to their own constituents as casualty figures rise. President Hamid Karzai leads in the polls. Most analysts think he will win a second five-year term, barring a surge in support for his top competitor, former Foreign Minister

Abdullah Abdullah. The tw also could find themselves in an October run-off if Karzai doesn’t get more than 50 percent of the votes this week. The articulate, multilingual Karzai was once seen as a dynamic leader. Years of corruption, ineffectual government and rising violence have tarnished that image. To hold on to power, Karzai has again surrounded himself with tainted warlord power brokers, raising the question of whether Afghanistan was moving backward. The Obama administration has declared itself neutral in the contest, representing a step away from the warm embrace that the Bush leadership once held for Karzai. U.S. officials have made clear that although they would work with Karzai, they won’t accept business as usual during a second term. “If you get a new government in place that is more of the same, you fail to satisfy expectations of the people, and that would not advance the national process in the way that is so sorely needed,” said Timothy Michael Carney, a former U.S. ambassador who heads the U.S. electoral support team in Kabul. For the Obama administration, the stakes are high. With troops moving out of

Iraq, Afghanistan has become Obama’s war, and his administration has spent political capital to increase troop levels and financial resources for the country at a time when many of the president’s supporters want an end to the conflicts of his predecessor. The U.S. hopes the election will give Afghanistan’s leader a broad mandate allowing the president to carry out reform and reach out to supposed moderates in the Taliban — if any are willing to break ranks with the hard-liners.

The back-to-back arrests of two top Pakistani Taliban members are another blow to a militant network reeling from the apparent killing of its chief in a CIA missile strike and could be a fresh sign of infighting about a possible successor.

Nearly any other year, Shinjiro Koizumi could safely assume he’d win election to Japan’s parliament. After all, this seaside district just south of Tokyo has been called the “Koizumi Kingdom.” His father, a popular prime minister, held the seat for years, as did his grandfather and greatgrandfather. But this is not a normal year. The 28-year-old Koizumi is the target of growing public grumbling about the widespread practice of hereditary politics, in

which a legislative seat is passed down from parent to child like an heirloom. Critics say the system is disadvantageous to newcomers and discourages change. And this year, voters want change. Economic woes and worries about a scandal-ridden pension system and a ballooning government debt could bring down the once invincible Liberal Democratic Party, which has ruled nearly continuously for more than five decades. As campaigning got under way Tuesday, the latest poll showed the opposition Democratic Party of Japan ahead by a wide margin. The Aug. 30 election is for the lower house, which picks

the prime minister. So the son of Junichiro Koizumi, who was prime minister from 2001 to 2006, is in a surprising fight for the seat his 67-year-old father is vacating. The Democratic Party has made banning hereditary politics, called “seshu,” one of its main campaign pledges — though some of its own party members have benefited from the practice. “Seshu is turning into a politically sensitive issue,” said Minoru Morita, who has written books on politics. “The trend will be toward declining seshu because such candidates are going to have a harder time getting elected.”

Militant violence has spiraled in Pakistan throughout the past two years, but tough military action — backed by a public sickened by suicide bombings and concerned about Taliban territorial gains — has put the Islamic extremists on the back foot — even as Taliban attacks soar across the border in Afghanistan.

istani Taliban spokesman Maulvi Umar, told interrogators Tuesday that the movement’s chief, Baitullah Mehsud, had been killed in the Aug. 5 strike close to the Afghan border, according to an intelligence official who took part in the questioning. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. U.S. and Pakistani officials have said they were almost certain that Mehsud had been killed in the attack.

The accident Monday, which drowned or crushed to death 12 other workers, shut down the massive Sayano-Shushenskaya power plant in southern Siberia and left several towns and major factories without electricity. The plant provides 10 percent of Siberia’s energy needs, according to Russian media reports.

Two workers were found alive Monday in niches inside the flooded structure, RusHydro acting chief Vasily Zubakin was quoted as saying, but hope was fading for the 64 still missing. “With every hour, there is less and less chance left that we will find somebody alive,” RusHydro spokesman Yevgeny Druzyaka said Tuesday. RusHydro officials say the water temperature around the plant is about 4 C (40 F). Regional Gov. Viktor Zimin refuted allegations that rescue teams had heard knocking sounds from inside the plant after the accident, saying the dam’s thick concrete walls would muffle any sounds from inside. Federal investigators said an explosion destroyed walls and the ceiling in a room where turbines are located and caused the room to flood. One of the plant’s 10 turbines was destroyed, two were partly destroyed and three others were damaged, officials said.

The Steamboat Springs High School golf team returned from a two-day excursion to Grand Junction with a better idea of what its competition will look like the rest of the season. Maybe more importantly, the Sailors returned knowing that when regionals roll around in September, they should be right in the thick of things. “Our goals are still pretty much the same,” junior Alan Capistron said. “Getting first place at every tournament is the goal.”

Smith serves as star It’s just a question, one that really needs to be asked. After all, Broncos cornerback Alphonso Smith led college football with 15 interceptions combined during the past two seasons. He set a school record at Wake Forest with eight of those as a junior. In his four years with the Demon Deacons, he broke up 61 passes. And he returned four interceptions for touchdowns. So, here’s the question, why would quarterbacks still keep throwing the ball in Smith’s general direction? “I guess they couldn’t run it, and they had to throw it somewhere,” Smith said. “I guess I was fortunate.” Smith then proceeded to name his former teammates at Wake as the real reasons, guys such as linebackers Aaron Curry and Stanley Arnoux, safety Chip Vaughn and cornerback Brandon Ghee. And those were indeed pieces to the puzzle, but the simple fact

fired a 76, Weston shot 89, and Martin shot a 91. “We saw all of our competition,” Steamboat coach Steve Dodson said. “It was a good test.” It certainly gave the Sailors a judge of where they stand in the region. Having only one organized team practice in the past two weeks, Dodson said the Grand Junction swing helped give Steamboat some perspective on other top teams in the state. As it stands now, Montrose appears like the team to beat. “They’re good,” said CapSee Golf, page 31

There are really no secrets to today’s Buffalo Pass Hill Climb. The second-to-last race in the Steamboat Springs Town Challenge mountain bike race series takes most riders from the bottom of Buffalo Pass to the top. All told, riders pedal 11 miles, including more than 3,600 feet of elevation gain. Pro, open, expert, sport and singlespeed divisions climb the 11 miles from the bottom to the top. All novice divisions and the 16- to 18-year-old division start at the Dry Lake Campground and climb eight miles to the top of the pass. Those racers starting at Dry Lake Campground will be responsible for getting themselves to the start. All other racers can park at the bottom of Routt County Road 38. Registration for the race begins at 4 p.m. at the bottom of Buffalo Pass. Children’s races begin at 5 p.m. with adults starting at 5:30 p.m. The cost is $15 for children and $25 for adults. “A couple years ago, I tried to get rid of this race because for me, it’s the toughest logistically,” Series Director Gretchen Sehler said. “But we polled riders and everybody goes, ‘Keep the race. Keep the race. Keep the race.’ It’s one of the older races. It’s all uphill, and it’s a challenge. They like it. I’m not sure why, but they do.” Only mountain bikes will be allowed at this year’s race, Sehler said. This means bikes must have two working brakes, a tire with a minimum width of 1.75 inches and no drop handlebars. Barkley Robinson won the men’s race last year in 59 minutes, 30 seconds. Kelly Boniface won the women’s division in 1:17.39. See Race, page 31

When a 24-hour mountain bike race hits 3 a.m., after starting at noon the day before, it can barely resemble the race from 15 hours earlier. Riders on teams sleep through their turns, while solo competitors let what were 90second pit stops turn into fiveor 10-minute stays at their staging tents. However, that kind of fatigue and discord wasn’t at all the case during the weekend at the 24 Hours in the Sage race in Gunnison. A group of Steamboat Springs entrants pedaled through the night, and when the sun rose and the race ended at noon Sunday, they had all carved out high finishes. Solo woman Kris Cannon added a 24 Hours in the Sage championship to go with her title in the race from last year. The solo men’s singlespeed team of Nate Bird, Tadius Huser, Rob Peterson and Ryan Sullivan also

MOUNTAIN BIKING won its division. Jaimie Zelkin was fifth among the solo women. “We are all pretty stoked about the race,” Bird said, celebrating the victory with his team as they camped one final night in Gunnison. “We got here a couple days early, and it was terrible weather, just poured the whole time. But for the whole race, it couldn’t have been better.” Even when the temperatures dipped at night, the Steamboat riders stayed hot. Cannon recorded the fastest lap by a woman on her first goaround, making the loop in 1 hour, 11 minutes and 9 seconds, five minutes faster than her nearest competitor. She didn’t relent and actually extended her lead with every additional lap. She had the fastest lap time in each of the first 10 laps, and by the time the sun rose, she had built a lead large enough to allow for an easy-going morning. She finished with 14 laps, one

more than second-place finisher Kerry White. “I’m really happy about it,” Cannon said. “My times were better than they were last year. I started out ahead on the first lap and just kept trying to keep it going and widen the gap.” The four-man singlespeed team wasn’t able to establish control until late into the night. Nate Bird’s first-round lap time of 56 minutes and 20 seconds was the division’s fastest, but it was only good for a 36-second advantage at that point. The lead changed hands throughout the event, but the Steamboat riders finally surged ahead when one of the riders from the other top singlespeed team was injured. The Steamboat squad finished with 21 laps, one more than the Gunnison-based Team Tune Up. “It was super tightly contested until about three quarters of the way through,” Bird said. “Everyone on the team had a lot of fun. We were yelling back and forth, and it was super close.”

Previous failures at tournaments couldn’t do much to damper the Steamboat Springs U-13 girls soccer team. After going winless through several tournaments this year, Steamboat finished second during the weekend at the competitive Broomfield Soccer Tournament. “The kids are really working on their skills,” coach Jim Dudley said. “They’ve been playing a lot and worked on skills and teamwork.” Steamboat won its pool portion of the tournament and beat an undefeated Longmont team in the semifinals. The team fell, 2-0, to a Colorado Rush team in the finals. Dudley pointed out the work of Carolyn Walters and Keagan Scronek in the midfield and the defensive play of Savannah Bauknecht and Eliza Leeson as key components to the strong tournament. Despite falling in the finals, Steamboat gave up only four goals all tournament, two of which were on penalty kicks. “We won the first game, got excited and didn’t get our hopes down,” Savannah said. “We kept working really hard. We’re really proud of ourselves.”

SPORTS BRIEFS Bonesaws struggle in Aspen lacrosse tournament Fresh off a solid tournament in Breckenridge three weeks ago, the Steamboat Springs Bonesaws struggled in the Aspen Hooter’s Men’s Lacrosse Tournament on Saturday and Sunday. Steamboat — without several top players — went 1-3 at the tournament. After beating an Aspen team in its first game Saturday, Steamboat dropped three straight games. Vail — who Steamboat has beat several times this year — won the tournament.

“It was a good time,” Steamboat captain Todd Wichelhaus said. “A couple of goals in the net would have gone a long way.” In all of Steamboat’s three losses, the team fell by a single goal. The team lost to Boulder twice and to another team from Aspen. Despite the season-ending tournament not going quite as Steamboat had hoped, Wichelhaus said overall, the season was a success.

Any time three players shoot in the 70s, a coach should be happy, Dodson said.

Smith: You have to want the ball in your hands remains in the fast-twitch world of defensive backs some create turnovers and some do not. Some end up with the ball in their hands and go the other way. Some do not. “Physically, you have to be able to play the position,” said cornerback Champ Bailey, an eight-time Pro Bowl selection. “But you have to anticipate too, you have to know what’s happening around you and make the

play when you have a chance.” And while Knowshon Moreno and Robert Ayers were the Broncos’ two first-round draft picks this past April, the team treated Smith like he was one, as well, shipping their firstround pick in the 2010 draft to Chicago for a chance to select him 37th. Smith already has filled in for Bailey in the starting defense when Bailey was given a practice off this week. Smith also is taking a regular rotation as the

team’s nickel corner — the fifth defensive back in passing situations — and has been returning punts and kickoffs as well. “You have to want the ball in your hands, the desire behind it,” Smith said. “More than anything, just believe you can get to the ball and make the plays. Believe that you can do it. Know when you can take a chance, and know when you can’t. You have to play within your means and know when the opportunity is going to arise.”
