Four Routt County residents accused of taking part in a Jamaican lottery scam were part of a wide-ranging network that bilked dozens of people across the country out of tens of thousands of dollars, according to arrest warrants filed in Routt County District Court. Evidence, charges and information continue to pour in from investigators, who say the ongoing investigation is being done cooperatively with federal law enforcement agencies. Steamboat Springs residents Troy Cox, Yanique Mendez, Simon Guthrie and Catrina Graham were arrested in May, and each face felony charges of violating Colorado’s Organized Crime Act, in addition to other charges. The preliminary hearing for Cox and Mendez was continued Thursday. Their attorneys recently received more than a thousand pages of discovery from investigators. Routt County Judge James Garrecht agreed to the continuance and set a new preliminary hearing for July 13. “They targeted elderly people, telling them they won either the Jamaican or Australian lottery,” See Scam, page 14A

ike many Americans, I often root for the underdog. Lately, given the economic headwinds and increased sniping from a small but vocal group of rabble-rousers seeking to derail any construction in the Yampa Valley, I find myself pulling for the development community to succeed against the odds. Unfortunately, some of our un-neighborly neighbors in Routt County believe it is their role to assault developers, builders and Realtors verbally and in writing at every opportunity. Amazingly, these malcontents fire their cheap shots in spite of the hypocrisy of their living on land and prospering from homes and businesses made possible by the very development they loudly protest. The oft-repeated mantra of these community connivers is this: “Now that I’ve got my slice of paradise, no one else can live here unless I say so!” These selfish souls profess that “developers” are performing Satan’s handiwork right up until the day arrives when they cut their own deal with

the devil to sell or develop their property in search of heavenly dollars. But until they cash in, the word developer is spat from their lips awash in condescending vulgarity. Case in point. Last Sunday, the Steamboat Pilot & Today reported that Kim and Peter Kreissig have placed Rollingstone Village — an approved but not yet constructed development off Pine Grove Road — back on the market. As Peter told the Pilot, “We have carried Rollingstone since 2007. Given market conditions, we have no immediate plan to commence building. We can technically continue to carry the land, but with the market rebounding slowly, it just doesn’t make good business sense for us to wait it out.” The Kreissigs paid $5.75 million for the property in 2007 and now are asking $6.9 million, which, according to the Kreissigs, will be a loss after

deducting costs incurred to date. The article was greeted on the Pilot’s Web forum by the usual real estate development haters spewing their typically shallow insights: “Sounds like all the rest of them. Atira, Timbers, Green Court (sic), 700, 360, Wildhorse. Wanna take bets on who goes down first.” “That sure was a commitment. Another fair weather developer bites the dust. $2 1/5 million profit in less than two years? Not too shabby.” When Fred Duckels rose in defense of builders, writing, “You guys had better start rooting for these people,” he was met with, “I root for smart people not greedy ones.” But then something I’ve been waiting a long time for happened. The “greedy, fair-weather developer” decided enough was enough and stood up for her family’s business. Not only did Kim Kreissig confront the know-nothing know-it-alls, she challenged them, writing, “If you are honestly interested in the facts behind our sale of Rollingstone, please call me on my cell See Douglas, page 20A

Trustees debate budget Hayden employees speak out; home rule charter headed to vote Blythe Terrell

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

HAYDEN

Budget talks fired up the Hayden Town Board of Trustees and town workers at the board meeting Thursday evening. Department heads stood up to protest planned furloughs, which would slice four hours off each employee’s week. Town trustees reacted with concern and questions, plus a reminder that failing to balance the budget is not an option. They also discussed concerns about the proposed Hayden town charter.

Trustees opted to address the budget questions at a work session with department heads and Town Manager Russ Martin at 7 p.m. Tuesday. “It’s tough,” Trustee Tom Rogalski said. “There’s only so much pie to go around, and everybody gets a smaller slice.” Department leaders spoke fervently about the possibilities for reduced services. Streets Superintendent Sam Barnes said cutting employee hours could have severe consequences. “Which roads get plowed and which ones don’t on 36 hours, I don’t know the answer to that,”

Barnes told the board. “That’s something you guys will have to answer.” Plowing could become even more of a concern if the Hayden School District cuts bus routes in town, which has been suggested. That change combined with increased time needed to plow because of staffing shortages could have dangerous consequences, Barnes suggested. “That’s going to put a lot of kids out on the street early in the morning walking to school,” he said. “Do we want to be plowing See Trustees, page 21A

COMMENTARY

Do you have something to say about a story we’ve written?

Hold the fries Maureen Dowd

THE NEW YORK TIMES

WASHINGTON

Even as he grows arugula in the White House vegetable garden, President Barack Obama never again wants to be seen as the hoity-toity guy fretting over the price of arugula at Whole Foods. That is why the president ends up sending mixed signals about food. He clearly feels strongly about nutrition and fat. The child who looks a little chubby in that famous picture of himself with his Dowd long-lost father in Hawaii grew up to be extremely careful about eating and drinking in a healthy way. The willowy commander in chief urges out-of-shape and overweight aides to go to his Chicago trainer who now works part-time at the White House — and even

offers to treat especially recalcitrant cases. On a date night this spring with Michelle at the Georgetown restaurant Citronelle, the president showed how calorie-conscious he was when, during a three-hour meal, he managed the impossible feat of nibbling only one french fry. “He wants to stay skinny, you know?” chef Michel Richard mischievously told “Extra” afterward. On the campaign, Obama seemed an organic proselytizer for healthier eating, telling black audiences to stop serving their kids cold Popeyes chicken and “give ’em some breakfast.” It was easy to imagine a scenario in which the president and his body man, Reggie Love, would have their own earlymorning TV show called “Downward Facing Dawn,” coaxing a reluctant nation into a regimen of yoga and yogurt. When he talked to the American Medical Association on Monday, the president again urged Americans to make

their children “step away from the video games and spend more time playing outside” and cut “down on all the junk food that’s fueling an epidemic of obesity.” He said he was trying to instill this lesson in his own daughters and at schools across the country. “As some of you know, we started a White House vegetable garden,” he noted. “I say ‘we’ generously, because Michelle’s done most of the work.” But often, when the cameras are rolling, Obama puts his organic tea aside and makes a show of heading for the nearest greasy spoon. He boosted the business of Ray’s Hell Burger in Arlington, Va., after he took Joe Biden there in a monster motorcade for lunch and ordered a cheeseburger with Dijon mustard (a spicy detail that amused Republicans). When Brian Williams did his day-atthe-White House special two weeks ago, See Dowd, page 9A

NYT: Duke lacrosse players killed Meredith Kercher Ann Coulter

UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

Whether it is Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Weather Underground, Central Park rapists, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Jim Jones and the People’s Temple, welfare recipients, Palestinian terrorists, murderers, abortionists, strippers or common criminals — liberals always take the side of the enemies of civilization against civilization. In the view of The New York Times, every criminal trial is a shocking miscarCoulter riage of justice — except the ones that actually are shocking miscarriages of justice. Thus, in last week’s Times, Timothy Egan wrote about a shocking miscarriage of justice being carried out against a “highspirited” American girl accused of murder by a crazed prosecutor in Perugia, Italy.

MALLARD FILLMORE

Egan’s column bears as much relationship to the facts of the case as — well, I guess as anything printed in the Times. And yet every American news network has embraced Egan’s version and is flacking for the accused. Amanda Knox, her erstwhile boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, and another man, Rudy Guede, stand accused of murdering Knox’s roommate, Meredith Kercher, on Nov. 1, 2007, at the house Knox and Kercher shared with two other girls in Perugia. Egan triumphantly cites an “outside expert hired by CBS News” who calls Knox’s prosecution, “the railroad job from hell.” Egan does not mention that the “outside investigator” is Paul Ciolino of the “Innocence Project,” whose investigations always seem to conclude that the accused is being railroaded. Ciolino’s theory of the crime — adopted unquestioningly by Egan — is that the third man, Guede, who already has con-

fessed to the crime, acted alone. Despite Ciolino’s careful analysis of the evidence, his theory is contradicted by Guede himself, as well as the coroner and a leading forensic geneticist, both of whom have testified that Kercher’s massive injuries could only have been inflicted by multiple assailants. It also is contradicted by the court’s 106-page report, released in January, explaining the judge’s reasons for refusing to release Knox and Sollecito on bail. Even the “48 Hours” executive producer doesn’t endorse Ciolino’s preposterous “single knifeman” theory, admitting: “Do we know every piece of data? No. Is there some troubling DNA? Yes.” Hey, does anyone know whether CBS hired more than one “outside investigator” to look at the Knox case? Because if Egan considers one CBS “outside investigator” the Rosetta Stone of this case, it See Coulter, page 9A Bruce Tinsley

Maybe Obama should avoid burger photos the president took the anchor to a Five Guys burger joint. He ordered himself a cheeseburger and fries and, in an extravagant attempt to prove his meaty regular guydom, brought back $80 worth of burgers and fries in a greasy bag for White House staffers. (After a tour of the Sphinx in Egypt, the president evoked his love of red meat again, saying “Five Guys was good. This is better.”) Michelle sometimes takes her staff on impromptu lunch trips to Five Guys or other burger and barbecue spots. But Tuesday, when schoolchildren were harvesting crops in the White House vegetable garden (though not the Thomas Jefferson lettuce, which had gone to seed), they were brushed back from fried food by Michelle and

her associate chef, Sam Kass. “This is a healthier version of fried chicken,” the first lady, wearing orange jeans, said as the kids prepared their own baked chicken snack. Kass added: “Breaded and baked is the new fried.” Michelle said she had wanted the organic garden as a way to underscore the need for better nutrition. “Nearly a third of the children in this country are either overweight or obese, and a third will suffer from diabetes at some point in their lifetime,” she said. “In Hispanic and African-American communities, those numbers climb even higher so that nearly half of the children in those communities will suffer the same fate.” She said America has become so unhealthy because too many kids “are not eating right and they’re not moving

their bodies at all.” When she was growing up, she recalled that desserts and fast food were rare: “It was a special treat. And we would beg to get it, and it was exciting if we drove into a fast-food place and got a hamburger. We were thrilled. It was like Christmas. ... If we got pizza on a Friday night, that was a treat.” Obama ostentatiously treats himself to fries and burgers to beef up his average-Joe image (even though he’s anything but). Yet maybe when Charlie Gibson and Diane Sawyer come next week to broadcast a special on health care from inside the White House, the president should forgo the photo-op of the greasestained bovine bag and take the TV stars out for what he really wants and America really needs: some steamed fish with a side of snap peas.

Easy to see how the Times is lying this time Coulter continued from 8A would be odd if he didn’t mention the conclusions of another CBS outside investigator. Why, yes there was! The second investigator, Paolo Sfriso, didn’t pronounce judgment, but he did cite some of the evidence. “(I)f Knox and Sollecito had killed Kercher and were in that blood-splattered room, why is there no physical trace from them on the body? A print? A swap of DNA somewhere? After all, Kercher had died after a brutal strangulation, evidence of considerable struggle, with knife pokes in the neck.” Read the trial transcript, Matlock. Egan does acknowledge the bloody bra strap covered with Sollecito’s DNA but dismissively writes: “(T)hey discovered

Kercher’s clasp nearly six weeks after the murder — a highly suspect and tainted piece of evidence from a contaminated crime scene.” True, the defense has tried to minimize all the evidence by throwing out the old “contamination” chestnut, but without proof of systematic contamination of the evidence, this is just a boilerplate defense, much like “but he hit me first.” (Next, the defense will be vowing to look for the “real killer.”) When the defense tried the “small amount of DNA” argument at trial, forensic biologist Patrizia Stefanoni replied, “If the blood evidence is a positive match, it is not always important how much there is — and the material on the blade matches the victim.” Even the accused murderess has a better theory to explain the

DNA on the knife. Knox wrote in her prison diary: “I think it is possible Raffaele went to Meredith’s house, raped her, then killed her and then when he got home, while I was sleeping, he pressed my fingerprints on the knife.” These are only a few examples of the wildly deceptive account of the Amanda Knox trial printed in the Times. The reason this is important is that this is how the Times portrays all criminal prosecutions: Ruthless prosecutor railroads innocent bystanders for mysterious reasons. (Unless the victim is a late-term abortionist or the accused is a Duke lacrosse player.) The only difference in the Knox case, compared to run-ofthe-mill criminal cases, is that the copious foreign reporting on the case makes it child’s play to see how egregiously the Times is lying this time.

Board adopts 2009-10 budget Hayden education officials OK more than $5M financial plan Jack Weinstein

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

HAYDEN

The Hayden School Board adopted the 2009-10 budget Wednesday night. The more than $5 million budget is about $100,000 more than the previous year, Jnl Linsacum, the district’s finance director, said Thursday. Linsacum said additional perpupil funding from the state of Colorado and increased expenditures including step increases and 1 percent raises for all staff contributed to the budget increasing next year. The budget will be amended after the Oct. 1 student count before it’s submitted to the Colorado Department of Education on Dec. 31. The state’s public school districts are funded

on a per-pupil basis, so exact revenues can’t be determined until after the fall student count. Last year, 465 students attended Hayden schools from preschool through 12th grade, according to the Oct. 1, 2008, student count. The district is projecting 458 students in the fall, but that could fluctuate by the time the official student count is taken. Linsacum attributed the slight decrease in students to last year’s graduating class being larger than the projected incoming kindergarten class. Board members also approved an interest-free loan resolution for the 2009-10 school year. The state loan program allows districts to borrow from the state department of education while they wait for their property tax

payments to be allocated. Linsacum said 54 percent of the district’s revenue comes from property taxes, some of which are allocated beginning in March. That’s problematic because the district starts spending money in the fall. Linsacum said that sometimes, revenue from property taxes isn’t paid until June. For that reason, she said, the district will request a maximum loan of $2 million, more than the $1.6 million it requested last year. “A lot of revenue didn’t come in when we expected it to, so we wanted some cushion with the maximum amount we could borrow,” Linsacum said. Of the remaining 46 percent of the district’s revenue, 32 perSee School Board, page 17A

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Mainstreet Steamboat Springs President Towny Anderson made a compelling pitch to the Steamboat Springs City Council on Tuesday, but the city is likely to respond coolly to his request to make a substantial additional investment this year in the organization that promotes downtown. En route to requesting the funds necessary to hire an extra

staff person to assist Executive Director Tracy Barnett, Anderson noted that there is about 30,000 square feet of vacant commercial space downtown that, if rented, could generate hundreds of thousands of dollars in tax revenue for the city. “We have unused infrastructure,” Anderson said. “It’s not contributing to the city. The biggest thing we can do is invest in that unoccupied space. … This immediate period is going to make or break a lot of merchants.”

An investment in Mainstreet Steamboat Springs, Anderson argued, would help create an environment conducive to investment. “Downtown is our brand,” he said. “The first place we can generate new tax revenue is downtown. … What we need is help for Tracy. We’re running at capacity.” The city has contributed $50,000 to Mainstreet Steamboat Springs this year. Anderson See Mainstreet, page 18A

Who is YVSC?

Yampa Valley Sustainability Council

��

2009 YVSC Board of Directors

The Yampa Valley Sustainability Council evolved out of a citizen committee known as the Green Team established by the city of Steamboat Springs in 2005. The Green Team was composed of city employees and citizens with a passion to learn more about sustainable and green topics, but the focus was limited to how these principles applied to Steamboat’s public buildings. As interest in sustainability grew, the limited focused citizen committee could not meet the demands for environmental leadership the community sought. Thus, the Green Team returned to its roots of developing sustainable practices specifically geared toward city government offices and operations. The citizen aspect of the group went on to form the Yampa Valley Sustainability Council. The mission of YVSC is to provide leadership to advance environmental, economic and social sustainability for current and future generations through education, programs

and building collaboration among individuals, organizations, businesses and government. From its inception, membership has grown to about 300. Topics include green building, clean renewable energy, energy efficiency, multi-modal transportation, zero-waste, land-use, collaboration and room to grow as the organization and needs grow within the community. Until YVSC receives its 501(c)(3) designation, it operates under the Yampa Valley Community Foundation. In the past year, YVSC has launched three programs from the Governor’s Energy Office, which are ENERGY STAR for New Homes, Insulate Colorado and the Colorado Carbon Fund. ENERGY STAR for New Homes is a joint program with the city of Steamboat Springs and Mountain Energy Consultants and is geared toward educating builders, Realtors, appraisers, architects, trades, develop-

4 suspects remain in Routt County Jail

��

Routt County Deputy District Attorney Carl Stahl said. The suspects are accused of telling victims they would first have to pay “reduced taxes” of as much as $60,000 to claim their prize of as much as $5 million. The letters were followed by phone calls to the victims. The total amount allegedly taken from victims is unknown. Guthrie’s arrest warrant indicates the victims, often elderly, lived across the country. Alleged victims are named in Wisconsin, Michigan, Texas and Denver, among other places. Stahl said most targeted people identified the scam as a fake, but some bought into the alleged scheme and paid large sums of money in hopes of collecting the fake lottery winnings. In one case, a woman reported that her 83-year-old grandfather who lives in Michigan sent as much as $66,000 to various addresses after being told he won $5 million in the Jamaican lottery. According to the arrest warrant, the man was instructed to send payments to Guthrie’s Steamboat mailing address. The victim then received a letter claiming to be from the FBI and the Department

of Homeland Security. That letter informed the victim that the money he sent to Guthrie was being used to support international terrorism and that if the victim told anyone about the payments, he would be arrested. The letter also directed him to send additional money to addresses in New York, Florida and Las Vegas in order to avoid arrest and prosecution for aiding terrorists, according to the warrant. Stahl said the suspects likely purchased a mailing list to contact potential victims. It is not clear whether any of the victims of the alleged scam lived in Steamboat, but Guthrie’s arrest warrant indicates several Steamboat residents were targeted by smaller scams conducted by the same suspects. That includes credit card fraud and thefts of several thousand dollars, according to the arrest warrant. Randall Salky, Mendez’s attorney, said he has received about 1,400 pages of documents from Steamboat Springs investigators, as well as some from state agencies. Salky said that even with the continuance, he doubts the hearing, or a trial, will happen in

Guthrie

Graham

Routt County. “To be honest with you, in reality, I think that it’s not really going to go forward because it sounds like the federal government is going to have an indictment before that date,” he said. Salky said that, generally speaking, when the federal government passes down an indictment, the state will dismiss charges and allow the federal prosecution to proceed. Stahl said he was aware of only one other arrest in the case — a person who allegedly received money in Jamaica — despite the long list of accomplices listed in the arrest warrant prepared by Steamboat Springs Police Department investigators. Cox, Mendez, Guthrie and Graham are charged with violation of the Colorado Organized Crime Act, a Class 2 felony. Cox also has been charged with three counts of theft; Mendez with two counts of conspiracy to commit theft and nine counts of theft; Graham with two counts of conspiracy to commit theft; and Guthrie with four counts of theft. All four suspects remain in custody at Routt County Jail.

consisting of about 70 cars each. Union Pacific since has told Xcel it will allow only fullunit trains of 115 cars each. Mary Brown, representing Xcel Energy, said at Thursday’s Planning Commission meeting that initial plans included an atgrade crossing at C.R. 27, and Xcel proposed 70-car trains to limit the amount of time they would block the road. Since the county ultimately required Xcel to construct a separatedgrade crossing, Brown said the increased train lengths would have little impact. She also said fewer train trips would be required since the trains are shorter. “The total number of cars at the end of the day would stay

the same,” Brown said. The Planning Commission also approved other minor amendments. One will reduce the number of wildlife underpasses Xcel will be required to construct from four to three. The underpasses were required to allow for the safe passage of wildlife through the rail spur’s retaining wall. Since 2007, Xcel has purchased the Garcia property. Now that it no longer has to work within the confines of its right of way on that parcel, Brown said Xcel now has room to build an earthen berm, rather than a retaining wall, that wildlife will be able to cross at any point. The Routt County Board of Commissioners still must approve amendments to the special-use permit.

Also Thursday, in a 5-2 vote, Planning Commission approved a conceptual proposal from Ty Lockhart to convert a 1.89 parcel in Heritage Park designated for use as an athletic field into three duplex lots and a 0.4-acre open space parcel. The parcel in question is between U.S. 40 and Brandon Circle near the entrance to the subdivision. In arguing for the change, Lockhart wrote in a letter that he sees no demand for additional athletic fields in the subdivision. Two Heritage Park residents wrote letters opposing the change, saying the open space is valued and asking the county to stick to the provisions of Heritage Park’s approved development plan. Planning Commissioners Sandi Gibson and Donna Hellyer agreed and were the dissenting votes. Other commissioners, however, pointed out that the parcel is dedicated for athletic fields, not open space, and noted that Heritage Park residents rejected the city of Steamboat Springs plans in 2005 to construct additional athletic fields in the subdivision. Planning Commission also met with major stakeholders in the Stagecoach area in South Routt County to discuss issues to be addressed in the county’s update this year of the Stagecoach Community Plan.

The VNA says flu-like symptoms include a fever higher than 100 degrees, body aches, cough, runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. People experiencing such symptoms are advised to stay home and avoid contact with others. A VNA news release says people with mild symptoms don’t need to be tested, but people with severe symptoms should seek medical care from their primary physician. Other steps to help prevent the spread of the flu include: ■ Avoid close contact with sick people ■ Cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing ■ Wash your hands frequently ■ Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth

I don’t want to.” The proposed cuts also would reduce Parks and Recreation Director Kathy Hockett’s week to 20 hours and Parks Superintendent Dave Bantam’s week to 10 hours in about a month. Hockett and Bantam said that move could affect parks services and the town’s new baseball fields and building at Dry Creek Park. “I know the economy is bad everywhere, as is quite apparent, but to maintain what you guys have worked so hard to establish is going to be really difficult,” Bantam said. Police Chief Ray Birch and Systems Manager Frank Fox noted that even if their hours were cut on paper, they’d still work until the work was done. Birch’s statement seemed partly intended to assure the public that their police will be there when needed. “We’ll do the best we can with all we have,” Birch said. “We’ll be there when people call, when people have an emergency, if we have to roll out from our house or our bed to respond.” Trustees Tim Redmond and Jim Haskins said they didn’t think they had enough time to absorb the cuts and their ramifications. Martin informed them about the furlough plan earlier this spring. He was ill and absent

from Thursday’s meeting. Several town employees also said they were disappointed with the way cuts were handled. Martin announced the furloughs in May, and the next Town Board meeting was canceled. Furloughs were scheduled to start Sunday. Fox, Birch and Town Clerk Susan Irvine said they’ve cut their departments to bare bones. Barnes said he thought he could find more cuts at Public Works. Throughout the conversation, Redmond requested more conversation. “I kind of feel that I don’t know that we’ve looked at all of our options, and I don’t think we’ve investigated the situation as much as we should have as a board,” he said. The board called Martin at home to ask about the process. Martin said furloughs were a last resort that affected him, too; he also had agreed to take a 10 percent pay cut. Martin said he was open to meeting with staff members and the board. “I have no reason to be opposed to it,” he said. “If someone has a better answer, I would just have assumed they would have come up with it before today.” Tuesday’s meeting will be a work session, with no allocated time for public comment and no decisions. The board wouldn’t be able to take action until the

July 2 meeting. The discussion also raised concerns later in the meeting, when board members dealt with the proposed Hayden town charter. Redmond and Haskins said they’d spoken with town employees who were hesitant to talk about issues. “I hate to say it, but I think there’s a climate of intimidation out there,” Redmond said. Haskins said he sometimes heard that he was making decisions on the board without all the relevant information from staff members. The board discussed ways to change the climate. As it stands, the town manager has the power to hire and fire town staff. Eventually, the board decided to try to open the lines of communication by discussion. That could come up at Tuesday’s work session. The board approved the charter, and Hayden voters will decide whether to approve or reject it at a July 21 election. Also at Thursday’s meeting, the board transferred the liquor license from Quintero’s Mexican Restaurant to Wolf Mountain Pizza, which took over the location. Members also gave Wolf Mountain a temporary liquor permit. They approved a change of manager at the HiWay Bar, which is under new management by Lori Fournier and Brian Brittingham.

Financial industry taking aim at proposed watchdog agency Daniel Wagner and Stevenson Jacobs THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Of all the financial regulatory changes the Obama administration has proposed, one stands tallest as a threat to bank industry profits: the creation of an agency to protect consumers from risky products. Banking lobbyists already are trying to curb the agency, which is fast becoming the first big battleground about the financial overhaul. But it’s up against an industry with a track record of staying one step ahead of regulators.

If approved by Congress, the Consumer Financial Protection Agency could curtail or ban a host of dubious — but lucrative — bank practices such as ballooning mortgages, excessive credit card interest rates and surprise overdraft fees. The administration says such safeguards could have minimized the meltdown’s damage. But a concerned banking industry is taking aim at the proposed watchdog. Saying they’re being unfairly cast as the villain, banks fear a new agency would create conflicting layers of regulation — and give outsiders broad sway of their products and services.

“We think this agency is a mistaken piece of the overall program and not something that needs to be done,” said Wayne Abernathy, who heads financial institutions policy at the American Bankers Association. “This agency is going to be deciding what products we should offer instead of our customers telling us what they want.” Abernathy said his group, which represents most of the nation’s estimated 8,000 banks, would push the administration to “replace” the agency with another entity. In response, about 200 consumer protection groups are joining forces to defend the proposed agency.

Child porn found on suspect’s computer Illegal materials seized from accused museum shooter’s home WASHINGTON

Child pornography was found on a computer belonging to the white supremacist charged with shooting and killing a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, the FBI said in court documents. Agents found the material on a desktop computer seized from the Annapolis, Md., apartment where 88-year-old James

von Brunn lived with his son and son’s finacee, FBI Special Agent Ronald Farnsworth said in an affidavit filed Wednesday in support of a search warrant. Investigators searched the home last Thursday, taking more than 30 items, including ammunition, computers, thumb drives, CDs, memory cards, cell phones and videos. Authorities will analyze who had access to the computer to determine whether the pornography was von Brunn’s, or if it

could have belonged to someone else, prosecutors said. No decisions about charges have been made. The documents didn’t say what form the pornography was in, or how much of it was there. In separate documents filed on Wednesday, the FBI said it found 35 rounds of .22-caliber ammunition in a search last Thursday of von Brunn’s car, which was parked outside of the Washington, D.C., museum during the shooting a day earlier.

Financial, health care stocks pull market higher THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK

Investors can’t seem to get the stock market rally back up to full speed again. Stocks closed mostly higher but down from their highs of the day Thursday following three straight days of losses. Investors piled back into financial and health care companies and moved out of industries such as technology that had been leading the market.

Several upbeat economic reports encouraged investors after a slide earlier this week that dragged the benchmark Standard & Poor’s 500 index down 3.8 percent. Investors also sold Treasurys, feeling less need for the safety of government debt because of the signs of economic improvement. A private research group said its forecast of economic activity increased more than expected in May, marking a second straight gain after seven months of declines.

And the government said the overall number of people drawing unemployment benefits declined last week for the first time since early January. The drop broke a string of 21 straight increases. Separately, the Philadelphia Reserve Bank said manufacturing activity picked up in the mid-Atlantic region. The reports helped reassure investors that a recovery still is emerging. But analysts caution that there still may be more air to be let out of the market’s huge advance since early March,

which added as much as 40 percent to the S&P 500 index. “I don’t think that this rally is sustainable,” said Scott Armiger, portfolio manager at Christiana Bank & Trust about Thursday’s move. “I still think we have to give up a little bit more.” The Dow Jones industrials increased 58.42, or 0.7 percent, to 8,555.60, its biggest one-day gain in two weeks. The Dow had been up 98 points. The S&P 500 index increased 7.66, or 0.8 percent, to 918.37, while the Nasdaq composite index slipped 0.34, or less

��

than 0.1 percent, to 1,807.72. With trading light as the summer slowdown begins, analysts say more volume is needed in order to move the market significantly in either direction. Shares of major banks increased as Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner appeared before the Senate Banking Committee, defending the regulatory overhaul announced the day before by President Barack Obama. He also said he’s seen evidence of healing in the financial industry.

It’s well known as Father’s Day and the first official day of summer, but Steamboat Springs skateboarders will celebrate Sunday for an entirely different reason. Sunday is National Go Skateboarding Day, and The Click skateboarding shop in Steamboat will honor its most sacred holiday with a free competition meant to thank its customers and raise money for a concrete skate park in Steamboat Springs. The event will start at 3 p.m. Sunday at the skate park at the base of Howelsen Hill in downtown Steamboat. It will include a barbecue, music and a spotlight for riders of all skill levels to show their stuff. “We’re doing this for a couple different reasons,” The Click manager Philip Johnston said. “We always try to have a few contests every summer, and we like to give back to the kids and the community.” Johnston said the skateboarding competition will be open to all riders: locals and visitors, young and old, and rookie and veteran. This year’s winners will score some big prizes. Organizers have collected items from area businesses including Blue Sage Pizza, Ben and Jerry’s, All That Jazz and Backcountry Provisions. “We’re just trying to get the kids out of their houses, get them to have some fun and goof off without getting in any trouble,” Johnston said. “We want to promote skateboarding in a positive way.” Part of that promotion will be the continued push for a permanent concrete skate park in Steamboat Springs.

Crested Butte has been proclaimed one of Colorado’s premier mountain biking destinations. A number of Steamboat Springs riders will have the chance to determine that this weekend during the next leg of the Mountain States Cup competition. The Wildflower Rush event, the fourth in the eight-race summer series, will run through the weekend in Crested Butte. The event starts today in conjunction with the Crested Butte Fat Tire Festival and bike week. A half dozen Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club riders will be among Routt County’s entrants into the competitions. “Crested Butte is considered the capital of mountain biking. It’s a real festive atmosphere, so it will be pretty exciting for those guys to go check it out,” said Winter Sports Club biking program coordinator Ben Clark. Linnea Dixson will lead the Winter Sports Club bikers. After qualifying for the national championships in the Category 2 Sport division, Dixson will take the step up and race in the Category 1 Expert class. There also will be a pro division and a Category 3 race at the weekend’s event. “I think she’s a shoo-in to qualify again,” Clark said. “She’s super strong and motivated to do really well.” Sarah Dixson, Dane Dixson, Jeffrey Gay and Aiden Rohde will race in the Category 2 class. Alec Schaffer will race in the Category 3 division. — To reach Joel Reichenberger, call 871-4253 or e-mail jreichenberger@steamboatpilot.com

The Steamboat Springs American Legion baseball team will play in a tournament in Green River, Wyo., today, Saturday and Sunday. The team — mostly made up of high school baseball players and a few who have graduated — will play as many as seven games in the three-day tournament. It will be the fifth year in a row the team has attended the tournament. “It’s a lot of fun,” manager Dave Roy said. “They’re a great host, and like I said, we’ve been going to it for a number of years.” Those expected to play include former high school players Lars Johnson, Elliot Girard and Ryan Tibbetts.

Current high school players Ryan Hall, Brandon Clark, Alan Capistron, Matt Watwood and Hondo Anderson also are expected to play. The Steamboat team is 5-7 on the year, while playing in a Western Slope League with 12 other teams. In addition to Steamboat, Moffat County, Middle Park, Rifle, Eagle Valley, Summit, Coal Ridge and two teams from Rifle are some of the teams that make up the league. “We’ve been playing pretty well,” Roy said. “We’ve been pretty strong this year. Our first five or six hitters have been smashing the ball this summer.” Steamboat’s next home game is at 3 p.m. Wednesday at Emerald Blue against Eagle Valley. A second game will follow.

Flooded course, crowded lot spell Open fun Tim Dahlberg

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FARMINGDALE, N.Y.

Talk about brutal conditions at the U.S. Open. The wind was gusting, blowing rain sideways and creating waves in puddles that were nearing ankle deep. Umbrellas were deployed with a mission in mind because by now it was clear it was every man for himself. Dahlberg This was no time to get in the way in the parking lot at Bethpage Black, where it was a miracle the best players in world didn’t trample each other as they paired off with their caddies in a mad dash through the rain Thursday afternoon to the safety of their waiting Lexuses. They were the unlucky ones, this group of morning starters that included Tiger Woods. Now, wet, tired and sick of sitting around the locker room, they were beginning to realize just how unlucky they might really be. They would be the ones getting up at dawn for the foreseeable future, hoping to slog through another messy day. They would be the ones still at the course late into the night. They might even be the ones lying awake at night wondering who Johan Edfors and Jeff Brehaut are. Luck often plays a role in a big golf tournament, as Fred Couples so famously found out one year at the Masters. But luck of the draw could be a big factor in who wins this Open championship when — and if — the lake once known as Bethpage dries out enough for them to finish playing it. Somewhere, Sergio Garcia had to be laughing. Somewhere, Phil Mickelson was grinning and dry. In the player’s parking lot, Padraig Harrington was neither. “I don’t think there’s a guy who hasn’t teed off today that is not sitting very happy right now in their hotel room right now or maybe at the cinema watching a movie, something like that,” Harrington said.

Already played on a long course, the U.S. Open suddenly turned into a long week. Tiger Woods began his title defense Thursday on soggy Bethpage Black by having his caddie hold an umbrella until it was time to hit his opening drive. Facing a 15foot birdie putt on the second hole, Woods Woods stepped away so workers could mop up the green with a squeegee. He didn’t finish seven holes before Bethpage was too soaked to continue. “We probably played more holes than we thought,” Woods said. Relentless rain covered the greens in water and created tiny streams in some of the fairways, forcing the first round to be suspended after only 3 hours, 15 minutes.

GOLF — US OPEN No one played more than 11 holes. Phil Mickelson never even made it to the golf course. And with rain in the forecast the rest of the week, no one was sure when it would end. “If the forecast we’ve got right now for Saturday and so on were absolutely accurate ... yes, absolutely finishing on Sunday would be borderline impossible,” said Mike Davis, the USGA’s senior director of rules and competition. The last time a U.S. Open finished Monday without a playoff was in 1983 at Oakmont, won by Larry Nelson. The 78 players who got started were to return this morning, and if weather allows the first round to finish, the second round would begin immediately until it was too dark to play. Of the four players atop the leaderboard at 1-under par, Jeff Brehaut was the only one who saw more than four holes. He was on the par-3 third hole, his

12th hole of the round. Even for a short day of work in the rain, it was clear that Bethpage Black would be long and tough from so much rain. Brehaut’s first birdie came on the par-5 13th when he hit a 5wood for this third shot into 10 feet. He hit fairway metals for his second shot on par 4s three other times. “It played even longer than the practice rounds,” he said. Justin Leonard was through seven holes at even par, despite making three birdies. He hit a 4-wood on the 216-yard third hole and smoked a driver on the 408-yard sixth that traveled only 222 yards in the wind and rain. Leonard then hit 4-iron to 2 feet. “My goal was to forget about par and do the best I could,” he said. Also at even par was Masters champion Angel Cabrera, whose lone birdie came from a 30-yard pitch on the par-5 fourth hole that spit up water as it checked up inside a foot from the hole. Woods was 1 over after a shaky start.

Clint Barmes hit a two-run homer to help Ubaldo Jimenez win his third straight start in Colorado’s victory against Tampa Bay.

They took the final two in this three-game series after Tampa Bay snapped their 11-game winning streak Tuesday.

Derrek Lee and Geovany Soto hit consecutive homers to tie the game in a four-run eighth inning, then Alfonso Soriano singled home the winning run in the ninth to give the Chicago Cubs a 6-5 victory against the White Sox on Thursday. The late comeback gave the Cubs a two-game split in a rain-shortened set at Wrigley Field. They are 34-34 against their crosstown rivals in interleague play.

PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA

If this was a dress rehearsal for next year’s World Cup, the United States showed it’s far from ready. The U.S. was beaten soundly for the second time in a four-day span at the Confederations Cup, getting outplayed throughout a 3-0 loss to Brazil on Thursday. Felipe Melo scored off Maicon’s free kick in the seventh minute and Robinho made it 2-0 in the 20th, completing a counterattack that began when DaMarcus Beasley and Landon Donovan failed to combine on a short corner kick. Maicon added the third goal in the 62nd. “They’re always going to be the better team, right?” U.S. goalkeeper Tim Howard said. “It’s just for us about going out and trying to give a good showing of ourselves because the best team doesn’t always win. Today it did. We were overpowered, and sometimes you just come up against Goliath and David doesn’t win.” Brazil outshot the Americans 23-9, including 11-2 for shots on goal. And the United States (0-2) finished a man short for the second straight game. Sacha Kljestan was ejected by Swiss

SOCCER referee Massimo Busacca in the 57th minute for a rough foul on Ramires. “He played the ball off before I got there, and I got him in the foot,” Kljestan said. “I don’t know if it was a red or not, but the end state is that I let my team down today.” Combined with an opening 3-1 loss to Italy on Monday and Egypt’s 1-0 upset of the Azzurri on Thursday, the defeat left the United States with an outside chance, at best, to reach the semifinals. The Americans could advance by beating Egypt by at least three goals, and either Italy scoring three fewer goals than the United States in a loss to Brazil or the victory margins of the U.S. and Brazil totaling seven or more. Missing injured defenders Carlos Bocanegra, Steve Cherundolo and Frankie Hejduk, the United States has been shaky in the back. Melo’s goal marked the third time in four matches the Americans fell behind within the first seven minutes. “We had a very nervous, tentative start to the game,” U.S. coach Bob Bradley said. “An early goal off a set piece really put us in a difficult situation right from the start.”

Butterworth and Walsmith said. On “Almanac,” fans can track Butterworth and Walsmith’s every songwriting move and watch as tracks come together with guitarist Ross Vanderwerf, drummer Ian Shepherd and longtime bassist Jon Locker. “For us, it’s always been about an interaction and relationships with our fans, and technology is really breaking down those barriers and making that easier to do,” Walsmith said. Fans can chat with one another about the songs as they’re created, watch videos of mixing sessions and listen to the completed cuts as they’re released. The exposure can be strange at times, Butterworth said. Working “is really weird when you’re sitting around in your jimmies eating cereal and writing a song. It’s like the Internet ‘Real World,’” he said.

When Mike Butterworth and Jason Walsmith, of the Iowabased Americana rock band The Nadas, say they’re currently working on a record called the “Almanac” studio project, the timestamp isn’t an exaggeration. “When we say currently working on it, I’m standing in front of a microphone where I’m supposed to be doing vocal takes,” Walsmith said by phone from the band’s studio, where The Nadas will lay down 12 tracks in 2009, one for each month. Walsmith and Butterworth said they likely will play the songs already recorded for that project in a Thursday show at Ghost Ranch Saloon. Music starts at 9 p.m., and tickets are $8 in advance and $12 on the day of the show. The Nadas started more than 15 years ago when Walsmith and Butterworth were in school. They shared a musical dynamic that Butterworth — acknowledging that he’s about to use a cliché — describes this way: “He was a little bit country; I was a little bit rock ’n’ roll.” On records, that meant Walsmith brought an alt-country, folk element to the songs, while Butterworth infused them with rock ’n’ roll energy. Through the mid-90s, that Americana sound moved closer to flat-out rock and since has drifted back toward its folk roots. On stage, the high-energy rock element always stands center,

to the founding members of The Nadas as the evolution of their band: a melding of the best parts of their own musical tastes, with changes that are present but are noticeable only from a distance.

other than live bait.” With the help of Curt and Tara Weiss, of Walton Pond Mini Storage, the Optimist and Rotary clubs provide volunteers from 9 to 10:30 a.m. to help children fish, set them up with their own rods or one of about 20 loaners, and take down the size and time for each catch. In the 20 years Hands has been involved in the event, he said there hasn’t been a rain-out he can remember, and it seems most young fishers have luck at the pond. “The pond has just been stocked with 1,000 trout … and they’re hungry,” Hands said. The event is sponsored by Hands’ Mountain Home Realty, The Egg & I, Wal-Mart,

Steamboat Flyfisher, Colorado Group Realty, Walton Pond Mini Storage, Starbucks, Vectra Bank and Wells Fargo Bank.

Free Family Fun Fest The third annual Free Family Fun Fest offers more activities and a new location compared to years past. By teaming up with Steamboat Ski and Resort Corp. and shifting from the event’s former venue at Colorado Mountain College’s Alpine Campus, organizers at KFMU 104.1 FM are able to offer a more confined area and a more central location for families, said Lee Smith, office manager for KFMU. “We decided that teaming up with the mountain on their opening weekend was good for both of us,” Smith said. Organizers

expect about 1,500 people to turn out for the event, she said. All activities during the event are free and open to children of all ages; parents who want to participate are welcome on most of the attractions, Smith said. The festival offers a bungee trampoline, mechanical bull, bouncy house, giant climbing wall, human gyro, ropes course and face painting. Bear River Bar & Grill, Gondola Joe’s and City Café will sell food at the event. Local businesses and nonprofits will have displays, and costumed entertainers will be on hand. Children younger than 18 will need a waiver signed by a parent to participate in most activities; waivers are available at six locations, Smith said, including Ride Sports and the Gondola Transit Center.

Parker surrogate’s home burglarized

2 officers investigated for attempting to steal and sell photos Joe Mandak

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MARTINS FERRY, OHIO

Two Ohio police chiefs are being investigated in a suspected burglary aimed at supplying a tabloid with photos and other information about the surrogate mother carrying twins for Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, an official told The Associated Press on Thursday. The alleged Parker burglary took place in mid-May in the eastern Ohio town of Martins Ferry, and the allegations against Police Chief Barry Carpenter and Bridgeport Police Chief Chad DoJack surfaced about a week later, said the knowledgeable law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation continues and no charges have been filed. The targets were “pictures, phone messages, all those things” at the home of the surrogate, Michelle Ross, who is

no longer believed to be staying in the Martins Ferry area, the official said. Published reports have said she’s due to give birth in July. The official said the allegations are that “two police chiefs were breaking in and trying to sell it to the tabloid,” but did not identify the publication. Agents from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation have been investigating, and a special prosecutor, T. Shawn Hervey of Harrison County, has been appointed. Carpenter and DoJack didn’t return messages seeking comment. Martins Ferry Mayor Phil Wallace confirmed the bureau was investigating Carpenter but wouldn’t elaborate. Parker, the 44-year-old star of the TV show and film “Sex and the City,” and Broderick, her 47-year-old husband and fellow actor, have confirmed they’re expecting twin daughters by a surrogate because they’re unable to conceive since Parker gave birth to a son, who is now 6. “Matthew and Sarah Jessica have complete faith in the

legal system,” publicist Simon Halls said in a statement. “But because it’s a criminal investigation — we will not be making any more comment. What I can say is, the entire family looks forward to the healthy delivery of their daughters later on this summer.”

Asbestos-coated town East Coast wonders: to get federal cleanup ‘Who’ll stop the rain’ EPA takes unprecedented step in Montana THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

��

LIBBY, MONT.

��

Yvonne Resch remembers thinking as a child that the vermiculite mine only added to the area’s natural beauty — its lights on Zonolite Mountain looked like a castle. But the mine and its processing plants spewed asbestos over her town for more than 70 years, coating homes, schools and ball fields. Now her father, mother and two brothers are among many residents who suffer the coughing, hacking and wheezing of asbestos-related diseases, which have been blamed in more than 200 deaths since the late 1990s. The Environmental Protection Agency took the unprecedented step this week of declaring Libby a federal public health emergency, vowing to finally finish a cleanup that has languished for nearly a decade.

��

“We need to get this cleaned up and cleaned up right,” Mayor Doug Roll said Thursday. The agency pledged at least $125 million to speed the work of going door-to-door, raising tents over contaminated homes, removing contaminated soil and vacuuming out attics and any other surface once contaminated by miners returning from work. The alarming declaration so has far been met with Western stoicism. Many residents seem to have accepted that they share this scenic valley of towering pines and snow-covered mountain peaks with a silent killer. For decades, ore was brought to processing plants in Libby, where a smokestack released as much as 24,000 pounds of dust a day. Asbestos-contaminated mine waste, known as tailings, also were used to line an elementary school skating rink and to build running tracks at local junior high and high schools.

WASHINGTON

Mud season has been extended. From North Dakota to Long Island, rain after rain after rain has dampened spirits and swamped roads. Picnics and kids’ baseball games have been washed out, rescheduled and rained out again. Big-time sports, too. ■ In Farmingdale, N.Y., Tiger Woods’ defense of the U.S. Open championship was delayed Thursday as rain pelted an already soaked course and postponed most of the first round until Friday. “Where’s my canoe,” England’s Ian Poulter wrote on his Twitter feed. ■ In Bismarck, N.D., heavy rain swamped streets, stressed storm sewers and stalled vehicles. Roads were shut down, and the roof of a bowling alley collapsed under

the weight of water. ■ Rainfall has totaled 5.32 inches so far this month in New York’s Central Park, more than double the normal 2.17 inches for the period. “This has been a very rainy spring,” observed Victoria Cahn, 27, dodging puddles on a lunch run from her office on the University of Pennsylvania campus. “Usually in June, we have the air conditioning on half the time at least.” The lifelong Philadelphia resident said, “I’m a volunteer sailor on the (1883 tall ship) Gazela ... and we’ve been trying to find dry time to work outside on the weekends, and it just hasn’t been there — we always find ourselves interrupted by a thunderstorm or two.” The City of Brotherly Love has sloshed through 3.40 inches of rain so far this month, far above the 1.81 normal reading.

Iranian supporters of defeated presidential candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi take part in a rally in Tehran, Iran, on Thursday.

hundreds of thousands. Foreign news organizations are barred from reporting on Tehran’s streets. The demonstrators had marched silently until they arrived at the square, where some chanted “Death to the dictator!” one witness said. Press TV showed them making Vfor-victory gestures and holding pictures of Mousavi and signs that say “Where’s our Vote?” A participant said by telephone that the rally stretched for more than three miles through downtown Tehran from the square. Photos posted online showed Mousavi talking through a portable loudspeaker, dressed in a black suit and dark blue shirt as he raised a hand to address the crowd. The participant confirmed the authenticity of the images. He described watching “a sea of people” march across a bridge in a constant stream for three hours. “I remember one old man talking about how the will of the people has started and no one can stop it,” he added. The participant and the witnesses spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity for fear of government retaliation. On their way home, some demonstrators held a candlelit

gathering in front of Tehran University, where Mousavi supporters have accused pro-government militia of attacking students in dormitories. On Monday, hundreds of thousands turned out in a huge procession that recalled the scale of protests during the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Seven demonstrators were shot and killed that day by pro-regime militia in the first confirmed deaths during the unrest. After dark Thursday — as they have done on other nights this week — people went to their roofs and chanted, “Mir Hossein!” in support of Mousavi, and “God is great!”

Mousavi

��

Hundreds of thousands of protesters wearing black and carrying candles filled the streets of Tehran again Thursday, joining opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi to mourn demonstrators killed in clashes about Iran’s disputed election. The massive protest openly defied Iran’s supreme leader, despite a government attempt to placate Mousavi and his supporters by inviting the reformist and two other candidates who ran against hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to a meeting with the country’s main electoral authority. Mousavi and his followers allege Ahmadinejad stole the election. Many in the huge crowd carried black candles and lit them as night fell. Others wore green wristbands and carried flowers in mourning as they filed into Imam Khomeini Square, a large plaza in the heart of the capital named for the founder of the Islamic Revolution, witnesses said. Press TV, an English-language version of Iranian state television designed for foreigners, estimated the crowd at hundreds of thousands and said the people listened to a brief address from Mousavi, who called for calm and self-restraint. A Mousavi Web site said that the crowd exceeded 1 million. Independent witnesses said that, based on previous demonstrations at the site, the size of the crowd appeared to be in the
