The Yampa Valley Community Foundation’s Sunday event at Yampa River Botanic Park was more than a celebration of its 30 years assisting nonprofit groups in Routt and Moffat counties. It also was an opportunity to announce a joint fundraising effort with Routt County United Way to raise $30,000 in 30 days. The Community Cares Fund has a special mission — to assist those residents who have been adversely affected by the economic recession. “It’s really a short-term emergency fund, a safety net sort of thing to help people with basic needs,” said Betsey Jay, executive director of the Community Foundation. Jay said the need was identified after the Community Foundation conducted a survey in January of area nonprofit organizations to assess how different groups of people were affected by the economy. Among other things, the survey revealed that nonprofit groups were hurting as a result of dwindling resources. Smaller budgets have meant some health and human service organizations haven’t been able to provide an adequate level of service to folks in need. Jay said Community Cares Fund revenues could be dedi-

Lee Stroncek, left, sold a classic pair of Head Competition giant slalom skis to Santino Antonucci for $5 last week. Decades ago on the Jersey Shore, Antonucci traded his surf board for a similar pair of skis.

Place of honor for skis that changed the sport

��

orty-seven years ago this summer, Santino Antonucci decided it was time take up a more respectable sport. Reluctantly, he gave up the beach for the mountains. He sold his surfboard to buy a pair of long black Head Competition racing skis. “My buddies and I surfed near Ocean City, N.J.,” Antonucci said, “but were always getting chased off the beach. I got tired of being chased by the cops, so I sold the board and took up a sport where I could be like a regular adult.” I’m not absolutely certain that skiers are regular adults. And if you’re thinking it’s a little early in the 2009-10 season to be writing ski pieces, you’re right. We could leave the stories about great old skis of yesteryear until November. However, the end of June is prime time for middle-aged guys scouting around for a replacement pair of their first serious boards at garage and estate sales throughout snow country. Antonucci let his original skis slip away a long time ago. And he already had a pair of surrogates in his Steamboat home when he stumbled on Lee Stroncek’s 205 cm beauties at an estate sale on Aspen Street on Friday. So why purchase another pair?

Tom Ross PILOT & TODAY

“I’m buying these for my buddy,” Antonucci said with conviction. He picked up Stroncek’s well-used skis (sorry, bindings not included) for five bucks. Score! It was 1962 when Antonucci first made the switch from surf to frozen turf. He was going to school at Wagner College on Staten Island. The Verrazano Bridge hadn’t been built yet, so Antonucci used to shuttle to and from campus from Brooklyn via the ferry. During one memorable commute he demonstrated the adventurous personality needed to become a strong skier. In the midst of the ferry trip, he hopped in a lifeboat and took the oars to assist the crew in rescuing a woman who had gone overboard. Antonucci quickly fell in love with his new sport, spending many weekends at Hunter Mountain about two hours north of campus. Later, he See Ross, page 12

here in support of the Routt County Commissioners’ efforts to make country roads safer,” Routt County Riders President Robin Craigen said. “The county master plan calls for a multi-modal system highways and pathways (that will make) movement throughout the Yampa Valley safe and efficient. It sounds great, but I don’t think it’s where we are today.” The commissioners couldn’t help but lament the failure of a 2007 bond issue that would have created a local funding source for road improvements. A comment that resonated with the commissioners first was

made by cyclist Stuart Handloff and then repeated often throughout the two-hour session. “Good roads for cycling are good roads for everybody,” Handloff reminded the commissioners. “I’d never thought of that idea before,” Commissioner Diane Mitsch-Bush said. “I thought it was a very good one.” She also expressed enthusiasm for the remarks of Linda Kakela who has lived along Strawberry Park Road (Routt County Road 36) for 50 years and enjoys the many bicyclists who pedal that route.

The Routt County Commissioners are steering in the direction of drafting policies influencing future road projects to make them safer for multiple forms of transportation — motorists and bicyclists alike. The next step comes July 6 when the commissioners host a second public meeting on the subject. “We have to get down to meat and bones,” Commission Chairman Doug Monger said before an audience of more than 50 people Monday night. “From now on, whenever we fix a road, we need to fix it to certain standards so that it will include the things all of us need on those roads.” Monday night’s meeting was billed as an open discussion on the shared uses of county roads, one that would take into account the needs of pedestrians, people who move livestock on county roads, bicyclists, and to a limited degree, snowmobiles. Not everyone in the audience was a cyclist, but virtually everyone who stood up to address the commissioners closely identified with a perceived need to make Routt County’s roads more bicycle friendly. “The cycling community is

It appears the fire danger in Routt County, and nearly all of Colorado, will remain low throughout the week and into the Fourth of July holiday. With personal and professional fireworks shows igniting small fires during recent Independence Day celebrations, Routt County Emergency Management Director Bob Struble said the decreased danger provides a welcome change of pace. “We’re in pretty good shape for once, it doesn’t happen very often this time of year,” he said. Even so, fireworks that shoot into the air or have a “report” remain illegal by municipal and

state law. “In a nutshell, anything that leaves the ground or goes ‘boom’ is illegal,” Struble said. Steamboat Springs Police Department Capt. Joel Rae said officers issue between 10 and 15 summonses every year for illegal use of fireworks in Steamboat Springs. “It usually starts a couple weeks before the Fourth of July, and as you can see, we’re getting the calls,” he said. “We just ask people to comply with (the laws) and also to be kind to their neighbors.” Rae said explosives always carry a risk of fire, even in relatively wet conditions, and he warned that “fireworks are not See Fireworks, page 14

1st family of funk The Neville Brothers get ready for back-to-back Strings shows Margaret Hair

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

When The Neville Brothers take the stage at Strings Music Pavilion on Thursday and Friday, there won’t be any fancy light show or background dancers. The performance will be a lot of funk, a little gospel and some of those sugary ballads Aaron Neville seems to love so well — it’ll be “music that’s played from the heart,” saxophone player Charles Neville said. “What we do is not putting on a show, it’s presenting our heart and our spirits the way that they are. We do what we do the way that we do it, and we do it that way all the time,” Neville said on the phone from his home in New Orleans. The Neville family has used the Crescent City as a touch point for an eclectic brand of rhythm and blues music for more than 30 years — and much longer than that, if you count the brothers’ solo projects.

hen the bright moon is not in the sky, the dark summer night reveals one of its most spectacular treasures: the soft, misty glow of the Via Lactea, or the Milky Way. Contrary to what the ancient Romans believed, the Milky Way is not made of milk at all but is the combined light of billions of distant suns, unresolved by the unaided eye. In China, the Milky Way has been known as the “silver river,” and many aboriginal people know it as “the backbone of the night.” One of my favorites is the Cherokee name that means “the way the dog ran away.” Their legend is of a mischievous dog that grabbed a bag of cornmeal and ran off to the north, spilling a trail of cornmeal along the way. If you look through a pair of binoculars and sweep slowly

“X” marks the spot of the center of our Milky Way galaxy in this image of the summer Milky Way. A dark interstellar dust cloud in that direction obscures our view of the bright center beyond. Look for the Via Lactea, or Milky Way, on any clear moonless night this summer.

across the Milky Way, you will rediscover what Galileo did in 1610: a multitude of faint stars! The situation is similar to flying high over a sandy beach and seeing the white sand stretch for miles in both directions and, yet, you cannot see the individual sand grains that make up the beach from that height. In this case, the grains of sand are the stars that populate the Milky Way.

The Milky Way is really our home galaxy, a spiraling collection of hundreds of billions of stars, more or less like our sun. The word “galaxy” literally means “milk,” from the Greek word “galax.” Because it is flattened like a pancake, and we peer outward from within that pancake, we see the spiral arms wrapped gently around us in a See Westlake, page 15

COMMENTARY

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

Betraying the planet Paul Krugman

THE NEW YORK TIMES

So the House passed the WaxmanMarkey climate-change bill. In political terms, it was a remarkable achievement. But 212 representatives voted no. A handful of these no votes came from representatives who considered the bill too weak, but most rejected the bill because they rejected the whole notion that we have to do something about greenhouse gases. And as I watched the Krugman deniers make their arguments, I couldn’t help thinking that I was watching a form of treason — treason against the planet. To fully appreciate the irresponsibility and immorality of climate-change denial, you need to know about the grim turn taken by the latest climate research.

The fact is that the planet is changing faster than even pessimists expected: Ice caps are shrinking, and arid zones spreading, at a terrifying rate. And according to a number of recent studies, catastrophe — a rise in temperature so large as to be almost unthinkable — no longer can be considered a mere possibility. It is, instead, the most likely outcome if we continue along our present course. Thus researchers at MIT, who were previously predicting a temperature rise of a little more than 4 degrees by the end of this century, now are predicting a rise of more than 9 degrees. Why? Global greenhouse gas emissions are rising faster than expected; some mitigating factors, such as absorption of carbon dioxide by the oceans, are turning out to be weaker than hoped; and there’s growing evidence that climate change is self-reinforcing — that, for example, rising temperatures will cause some Arctic tundra to defrost, releasing even more carbon dioxide into

the atmosphere. Temperature increases on the scale predicted by the MIT researchers and others would create huge disruptions in our lives and our economy. As a recent authoritative U.S. government report points out, by the end of this century New Hampshire may well have the climate of North Carolina today, Illinois may have the climate of East Texas, and across the country extreme, deadly heat waves — the kind that traditionally occur only once in a generation — may become annual or biannual events. In other words, we’re facing a clear and present danger to our way of life, perhaps even to civilization itself. How can anyone justify failing to act? Well, sometimes even the most authoritative analyses get things wrong. And if dissenting opinion-makers and politicians based their dissent on hard work and hard thinking — if they carefully had studied See Krugman, page 9

Fame: I’m (not) Gonna Live Forever Cal Thomas

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

“How fevered is the man who cannot look Upon his mortal days with temperate blood, Who vexes all the leaves of his life’s book, And robs his fair name of its maidenhood ...”; So wrote English poet John Keats in “On Fame.” It’s worth re-reading as we overindulge in the recent deaths of Michael Thomas Jackson and Farrah Fawcett. Ed McMahon’s death the same week received somewhat less coverage because he was neither beautiful, nor weird, though he qualified as a celebrity. At least McMahon served in two wars as a Marine, which was a real accomplishment.

MALLARD FILLMORE

What is it about celebrity that so fascinates us? And it is celebrity, not fame. As the now defunct New Times magazine editorialized 30 years ago, “There are almost no famous people anymore; only celebrities.” That’s because, the editorial writer said, fame is too suggestive of steady achievement. Almost anyone can be a celebrity. Listening to the Michael Jackson tributes would make one think he had created something of lasting value. Some said his music will “live forever.” No it won’t. No one today hums Stephen Foster songs or ditties from World War I, or the Great Depression, which were better songs and understandable. Can anyone quote the lyrics from Gus Kahn’s greatest hits? Somehow “Butterflies all flutter up and kiss each little buttercup at dawnin’”) doesn’t seem to have the ring it had in 1922. Tony Bennett is a singer. His songs

have a better chance of longevity than Jackson’s because they are about love and relationships, which are common to every generation. Bennett and his contemporaries, including Frank Sinatra, Mel Torme and Ella Fitzgerald, are in a league far above the “pop” culture headed at one time by Jackson, whose biggest hit “Thriller” came before the younger generation was born. Our culture celebrates and promotes beauty, which fades. Farrah Fawcett attempted to remind people she was still around after her initial splash in the ’70s by having plastic surgery, among other things, and appearing nude in Playboy. Michael Jackson, who had numerous plastic surgeries and other “treatments” to his skin and body, was rehearsing for a “comeback” when he died of an apparent prescription drug overdose.

studies of the bill’s economic impact, which all suggest that the cost will be relatively low. Still, is it fair to call climate denial a form of treason? Isn’t it politics as usual? Yes, it is — and that’s why it’s unforgivable. Do you remember the days when Bush administration officials claimed that terrorism posed an “existential threat” to America, a threat in whose face normal rules no longer applied? That was hyperbole — but the existential threat from climate change is all too real. Yet the deniers are choosing, willfully, to ignore that threat, placing future generations of Americans in grave danger, simply because it’s in their political interest to pretend that there’s nothing to worry about. If that’s not betrayal, I don’t know what is.

So many refuse to cling to ‘real stuff’ in life Thomas continued from 8 proclaimed “king of pop,” got more coverage in newspapers and on the networks, especially cable TV, than Elvis Presley, the “king of rock and roll,” received when he died of a drug overdose in 1977. Diana, Princess of Wales, trumped Mother Teresa in TV coverage of their deaths, but who made the greater contribution?

will produce more of one and less of the other. “Why then should man, teasing the world for grace, Spoil his salvation for a fierce miscreed?” Keats asked a good question. So did the writers Jule Styne, Betty Comden and Adolph Green when they wrote “Make Someone Happy” (reprised by the late Jimmy Durante in the film “Sleepless in Seattle”): “Fame, if you win it, comes and goes in a minute. Where’s the real stuff in life to cling to?” The list of celebrities whose lives turned into a train wreck is long and lengthening. Why would so many want to follow

these people and their broken and lousy relationships, drug use, and plastic surgeries, especially when we see where it leads for so many of them? Last Thursday night, more people watched a Farrah Fawcett special on ABC than a Michael Jackson special on CBS, suggesting that beauty beats weirdness. Far fewer watched ABC’s health care special with President Obama. By almost anyone’s standards, health care is far more important than dead celebrities. That ratings disparity is a commentary on our shallowness and the refusal of so many to cling to the “real stuff” in life.

the issue, consulted with experts and concluded that the overwhelming scientific consensus was misguided — they could at least claim to be acting responsibly. But if you watched the debate Friday, you didn’t see people who’ve thought hard about a crucial issue and are trying to do the right thing. What you saw, instead, were people who show no sign of being interested in the truth. They don’t like the political and policy implications of climate change, so they’ve decided not to believe in it — and they’ll grab any argument, no matter how disreputable, that feeds their denial. Indeed, if there was a defining moment in Friday’s debate, it was the declaration by Rep. Paul Broun, of Georgia, that

climate change is nothing but a “hoax” that has been “perpetrated out of the scientific community.” I’d call this a crazy conspiracy theory, but doing so actually would be unfair to crazy conspiracy theorists. After all, to believe that global warming is a hoax you have to believe in a vast cabal consisting of thousands of scientists — a cabal so powerful that it has managed to create false records on everything from global temperatures to Arctic sea ice. Yet, Broun’s declaration was met with applause. Given this contempt for hard science, I’m almost reluctant to mention the deniers’ dishonesty on matters economic. But in addition to rejecting climate science, the opponents of the climate bill made a point of misrepresenting the results of

Police arrest burglary suspect Steamboat man accused of breaking into convenience store, cars Zach Fridell

Police arrested a 19-yearold Steamboat Springs man Sunday on suspicion of breaking into a gas station and stealing two bags of chips, as well as taking spare change from six unlocked cars. Jacob Michael Preston remained in custody at Routt County Jail as of Monday evening. Preston Steamboat Springs Police Department Detective Jerry Stabile said officers were led to Preston while investigating a report of a stolen ring. Stabile did not say what specifically led to Preston being identified as a suspect.

racing skis added a neoprene damping layer that made them less prone to chattering at high speeds. Stroncek and Antonucci agreed that one of the disadvantages of ski equipment in the mid-1960s was the longthong bindings that kept them connected to the skis even when they released. There were no safety brakes in those days, and a long strip of leather wrapped repeatedly around the ankle kept the ski from streaking away after a bad fall. The bad news was that they windmilled at the end of the thong, sometimes injuring the skier attached to them.

Quaint safety straps or not, Head Standards and Head Competitions were the skis to rip on in the early to mid1960s, before fiberglass overtook Howard Head. Some guys mourn for the 1965 Mustang they foolishly traded in. They spend years trying to find one like it, if not the exact car. Other guys are content to preserve valiant old warriors like the Head Competition giant slalom skis that changed hands from Stroncek to Antonucci last week. — To reach Tom Ross, call 871-4205 or e-mail tross@steamboatpilot.com

Commissioner Nancy Stahoviak had some specific goals for the July 6 meeting. She wants to obtain more detailed cost figures from Road and Bridge Director Paul Draper on sweeping county roads of gravel and debris to make them safer for cyclists. “We’re cutting back on road maintenance already, so we need to prioritize,” sections of roads for sweeping, she said. Second, Stahoviak wants to confront the touchy subject of registering all bicycles in the county in much the same way that motor vehicles are. “We need to have a discussion about the pros and cons,” she said. Finally, Stahoviak wants to clear up any con-

fusion among motorists and cyclists about the role of the white stripes along the perimeter of county roads known as the fog line. Draper said the fog lines were created as a guide for motorists and not to denote formal bicycle paths. However, Stahoviak said she’s convinced many motorists see them as boundaries for bicyclists. Monger said one of his primary goals is to help move drivers and cyclists beyond the divisiveness that underlies the issue in Routt County. – To reach Tom Ross, call 871-4205 or e-mail tross@steamboatpilot.com

Fireworks are blamed for half of those fires, more than any other cause of fire. Rae said the massive fireworks display put on by the city is closely controlled by crews spraying Howelsen Hill, the launching site, with water for days before the show and fire trucks on scene in case of emergencies. Even so, technical problems, coupled with small fires near the launch sites, cut short last year’s show. This year’s show, scheduled for 9:30 p.m. Saturday, will include more launching sites and a practice run Friday.

Fireworks safety tips

For more

■ It is illegal for anyone younger than 16 to purchase fireworks. ■ Fireworks permissible in Routt County include sparklers, fountains and ground spinners. ■ Fireworks that do not explode or leave the ground are legal in Colorado. But even legal fireworks burn at high temperatures and can ignite clothing easily; always keep children away from fireworks. ■ Firecrackers, rockets (including bottle rockets), Roman candles and mortars are not legal anywhere in Colorado. ■ Never relight fireworks that have gone out, they still could be live and go off unexpectedly. ■ Establish a safe viewing area away from houses and shrubbery; never light fireworks inside. ■ Fireworks of any kind are illegal on U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management lands. ■ For more information or assistance in preparing for a safe Fourth of July celebration, stop by the Steamboat Springs Fire Rescue Mountain Offices at 2600 Pine Grove Road between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, or call 8790700 or 879-7170. — Source: Steamboat Springs Fire Rescue

The U.S. Forest Service is reminding people to leave their fireworks at home if they are visiting the Routt National Forest this Fourth of July holiday. Fireworks never are allowed on national forests. Campers also are reminded to be responsible with their campfires and to watch out for falling trees — a heightened danger with the large number of dead lodgepole pines from the mountain pine beetle epidemic. There are no fire restrictions as of Saturday, but some campgrounds are closed because of the removal of beetle-killed trees, construction or snow conditions. The Granite and Hahn’s Peak Lake campgrounds in the Hahn’s Peak-Bears Ears Ranger District will be closed during the holiday weekend. In the Parks Ranger District, Aspen, Pines and Teal Lake campgrounds also will be closed. Call the Hahn’s Peak-Bears Ears Ranger District at 870-2299 or the Parks Ranger District at 7238204. All campgrounds on the Yampa Ranger District are open. Call the Yampa Ranger District at 638-4516.

Nevilles grew up in a musical household Nevilles continued from 5 Brothers release in 1978, the four musicians gathered a rich set of influences. “That’s kind of what makes what we do sound so unique, the fact that we have these different influences. And we have some common influence, too, and that’s what makes it interesting and really different from anything else,” Charles Neville said. “I’m a jazz musician, and the way I play when I play with my jazz group, it’s the same way I play with The Neville Brothers. Aaron sings the way he sings no matter where he is, and Art is more influenced by the funk and the doo-wop stuff. … When those things come together, the funk is there … and the fire of Cyril’s soulinspired performance makes the gumbo that is The Neville Brothers,” he said. The Nevilles grew up in a musical household, listening to gospel, early blues, traditional New Orleans and modern jazz, 1940s and ’50s R&B, doo-wop, country and zydeco, Charles Neville said. “We came through the differ-

ent musical periods in America where the music was changing, and we picked up some influences from there,” he said. The group drew from the 1970s soul movement to update its rhythmand-blues roots, and took varied styles into account as the American musical consciousness became integrated, Neville said. The end result is what Neville calls “dance music or movement music,” a blend of funk, jazz, Latin, voodoo and New Orleans rhythms that keeps the beat up and the energy high. “We grew up listening to music together, and we started playing together around the same time, and one of the things that I discovered about it is we’ve got this natural ability to blend our different ways of playing music,” Neville said. “We don’t have to sit down and say, ‘If we play this song you’ll have to do this and I’ll have to do that.’ … It’s kind of automatically planned, and I think that’s one of the things that comes from us being from the same family.” — To reach Margaret Hair, call 871-4204 or e-mail mhair@steamboatpilot.com

See the galaxy we’re apart of Westlake continued from 6 narrow band that runs almost north to south on summer evenings. Look closely and you’ll notice that the band of the Milky Way seems to split into two parallel branches just south of the familiar Summer Triangle of stars, Vega, Deneb and Altair. This “Great Rift” in the Milky Way, as it is known, is caused by enormous clouds of opaque dust and gas, thousands of light years away, which eclipse our view of the stars beyond. South of the Great Rift and above the Teapot asterism of Sagittarius is one of the brightest regions of the Milky Way. When we peer off into this direction, we are looking directly toward the center of the Milky Way galaxy, about 28,000 light years away. We cannot view the center directly, though, because of the intervening stars, gas and dust. Experiencing the subtle beauty of the Milky Way has become a privilege that many Americans will never have. A large percentage of our nation’s population lives in or near a

large city where human light pollution drowns out this natural wonder. To them, the Milky Way is something that you read about in a book or see pictures of in a planetarium. Streetlights and spotlights aimed skyward scatter so much unnecessary light into the night sky that it overwhelms all but the brightest stars. Many cities are making efforts to curb this urban light pollution to preserve the beauty of the nighttime sky. For the time being, at least, in Northwest Colorado, all we have to do is step out in our backyard to see the galaxy of which we are a part, the majestic Milky Way.

New state law affects rainwater �

��

NEW YORK

A federal judge rejected Bernard Madoff’s plea for leniency Monday, sentencing the 71-year-old swindler to spend the rest of his life in prison for an “extraordinarily evil” fraud that took a staggering toll on thousands of victims. U.S. District Judge Denny Chin cited the unprecedented nature of the multibilliondollar fraud as he sentenced Madoff to the maximum of 150 years in prison, a term comparable only to those given in the past to terrorists, traitors and the most violent criminals. There is no parole in federal prison so Madoff will most likely die there. “Here, the message must be sent that Mr. Madoff’s crimes were extraordinarily evil and that this kind of irresponsible manipulation of the system is not merely a bloodless financial crime that takes place just on paper, but it is instead ... one that takes a staggering human toll,” Chin said.

Only white firefighters scored well enough on the test to be promoted. No blacks. So New Haven, Conn., threw out the test. In an important reverse discrimination ruling Monday, the

Supreme Court rejected that decision, cautioning employers nationwide against changing the rules once the game has begun. New Haven discriminated against its white firefighters by ignoring the results of a promotion exam on which they did well, but no African-Americans scored high enough to be promoted to lieutenant or captain, the justices said in a 5-4 ruling. High court nominee Sonia Sotomayor had endorsed the city’s position as an appeals court judge — ammunition for supporters and foes in her upcoming confirmation hearing.

Fireworks over Baghdad as Iraqis take over cities BAGHDAD

Iraqi forces assumed formal control of Baghdad and other cities today after American troops handed over security in urban areas in a defining step toward ending the U.S. combat role in the country. A countdown clock broadcast on Iraqi TV ticked to zero as the midnight deadline passed for U.S. combat troops to finish their pullback to bases outside cities. “The withdrawal of American troops is completed now from all cities after everything they sacrificed for the sake of security,” said Sadiq al-Rikabi, a senior adviser to Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. “We are now celebrating the restoration of sovereignty.” The Pentagon did not offer any comment to mark the passing of the deadline.

DENVER

One new law set to take effect Wednesday will allow Colorado homeowners to collect rainwater, if they can prove they’re not infringing on other water users’ rights. That’s right, rainwater. It will be legal for homeowners to use rainwater for fire protection, animals, irrigation and household use. It’s a touchy issue in the state, which does not import water from other states or regions and is forced by law to send it on to other states downstream. The law establishes a pilot program that people will have to apply for. The program’s size hasn’t been determined. “People are shocked that some developer or water provider owns the water that falls out of the sky,” said Rep. Marsha Looper, a Republican from rural Calhan, southeast of Denver, who sponsored the legislation. Recent dry spells convinced lawmakers this year it was time to try harvesting rain — not that anyone was prosecuted under the old ban.

A jump in oil prices sent investors rushing to put money into the stock market in the final days of the second quarter. Energy, industrial and materials stocks pulled the market higher in light trading Monday as investors raced to keep up with the gains in oil. Crude increased $2.33 to

settle at $71.49 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange after China said it would boost oil reserves and Nigerian militants partly shut down an offshore oil platform. With the quarter’s end coming up today, some money managers were making last-minute adjustments to their portfolios just ahead of issuing quarterly reports to their clients. A benchmark against which many funds are compared, the Standard &

Poor’s 500 index, is up 16.2 percent since the start of the AprilJune quarter. Analysts cautioned against seeing the upswing as a sign of conviction among investors that it was time to move into the market ahead of an economic recovery. Stocks seesawed in the early going but jumped after oil gained. After running the S&P 500 index up 37 percent since March on a litany of “less bad” economic

data, investors have become more cautious about the pace of the economy’s recovery this month and are looking for more concrete signs of growth. The Dow Jones industrial average increased 90.99, or 1.1 percent, to 8,529.38. The S&P 500 index increased 8.33, or 0.9 percent, to 927.23, while the Nasdaq composite index increased 5.84, or 0.3 percent, to 1,844.06. Stocks ended last week mixed.

There was little economic news Monday but the week, which is abbreviated by the Independence Day holiday Friday, brings key data that could give investors a better sense of where the economy is headed. The Dow is up 30.3 percent from a 12-year low on March 9, though it has declined 3.1 percent from a five-month high June 12. The blue chips now are down only 2.8 percent in 2009.

PARIS

When the Tour de France starts Saturday, some cyclists may as well wear targets on their backs. Pat McQuaid, the head of the International Cycling Union, says the race will be the most rigorously tested sports event in history. There will be about 520 doping tests, and several of the 180 riders already are in the crosshairs even before the three-week showcase begins in Monaco. Focusing on suspicious competitors is one of the major innovations at this year’s Tour, which is hoping to repair its battered image. McQuaid says he’s “neither an optimist or a pessimist” that this could be the year without scandals. “There’s always an idiot out there who will try something,” he said by phone Monday. In recent weeks, 50 riders likely to compete in the Tour have faced enhanced testing. McQuaid said that includes team leaders, race favorites and an unspecified small number of riders with suspicious profiles. The list of suspects has been drawn from the UCI’s new biological passport program. In it, riders have provided blood or urine samples compiled in individual body chemistry profiles that officials can compare to their race-day parameters. Any fluctuations from known baseline levels could possibly signal doping. Officials, in effect, are searching for evidence of doping rather than individual illegal substances. McQuaid calls the passport a “huge deterrent” to cheating. Levi Leipheimer, an American with the Astana team who has three race victories and four stage wins this year, said the passport suggests “they are tightening the net around doping and dopers.” “I think that’s a great thing,” See Tour, page 22

Rockies fall, 4-2 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES

Andre Ethier hit a tworun homer in the 13th inning, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Colorado Rockies, 4-2, on Monday night in the opener of a suddenly significant series between National League West teams. Rockies closer Huston Street wasn’t available to pitch, having saved all three victories at Oakland last weekend, so manager Jim Tracy had to

scramble for the right combination out of the bullpen. Joel Peralta, the sixth Colorado pitcher, began his third inning of work by giving up a single to Casey Blake in the 13th. The next batter was Ethier, who drove the right-hander’s 39th pitch to right field on a 1-2 count for his team-high 15th homer and 14th at home. Three of those came Friday night against Seattle.

Peralta (0-1) had made 11 straight scoreless appearances since May 25 against the Dodgers at Coors Field when he gave up an RBI single to Russell Martin. The Rockies remained the only team in the majors without an extra-inning victory, dropping to 0-4. James McDonald (21), the eighth Dodgers pitcher, struck out two in a perfect inning for the win.

Aaron Stewart walked onto the 18th green at Pinehurst’s No. 2 course on Monday and allowed himself a peek at the imposing figure standing near the clubhouse. Yes, his dad was watching. The late Payne Stewart still casts a long shadow at Pinehurst — both physically, a statue of the first U.S. Open champion crowned at No. 2 looms larger than life just off the 18th, and figuratively. Now, almost exactly a decade after the last pro victory of Stewart’s career, it’s up to his 20-year-old son to carry on that legacy when he plays his first tournament at the famous course, this week’s North and South Amateur. “A lot of people talk about, ’It’s been 10 years,’ (and) if this is going to be particularly hard because it’s been 10 years,” Aaron Stewart said. “Anybody that’s lost someone who has been such a big part of their lives, you think about that person every day. So it’s not like 10 years is going to be any different than seven years or something like that. It’s still going to be another day when you’re thinking about him.” The younger Stewart, who’s entering his redshirt sophomore season at SMU, is making a rare trip to the course in south-central North Carolina where his father’s second U.S. Open title came four months before his untimely death in an airplane accident. Aaron Stewart, a 10-yearold at that time, didn’t develop a serious interest in golf until he was in high school and visited Pinehurst last month for the first time since the statue was dedicated in 2001. He played 18 holes at No. 2 for the first time Monday. “Our family has always thought very highly of the people here and Pinehurst overall, See Golf, page 22

Aaron Stewart eager to create own identity Golf continued from 21 so when I found out about the North and South, I thought if I could get in, it’d be a lot of fun to play,” Stewart said. A quick glance at the younger Stewart and it’s obvious who his father is — minus, of course, the tam-o’-shanters and plus-fours that became trademarks of Payne’s during his nearly two-decade pro career. But they’re sharing more than just facial features this week. Aaron’s caddie, Mike Hicks, also carried the clubs for his father during his victory in the 1999 Open. And Aaron brought his father’s yardage book from that tournament.

“The mannerisms and the way he conducts himself, there’s a few things that remind me a lot of his dad,” Hicks said. A successful week at the North and South and the Stewarts will have matching tournament victories at No. 2, though Aaron Stewart faces a daunting path through two days of stroke play just to qualify for the match-play round. Then again, he didn’t rule out mimicking the fist-pumping pose struck by his father after his 15-foot putt sealed the Open victory, immortalized in the statue by the 18th green. “There’s hopes and desires and dreams, but it’d be awe-

some” to win at Pinehurst, Stewart said. “I can’t think of a better caddie to have on the bag, so it would be really special. I’m just going to go out (Tuesday) and play my best, and whatever happens from there, keep focusing on that and not think about the outcome. Stay present.” Someday, Aaron Stewart wants to follow his father into professional golf. But as proud as he is to be Payne Stewart’s son, he also is eager to create his own identity. “I’m very happy to have (the Stewart last name) and I’m very proud of my name, and I do want to be known as my own player,” Stewart said. “But that will come in time.”

Race winner, 6 cyclists automatically tested Tour continued from 21 he said Monday during a conference call. “Maybe in the future, we’ll look back and say it improved from this date.” Among other new tactics, testers will indicate which riders they want to target as late as 15 minutes before the end of each stage — hoping to catch cheaters off-guard. Testers also will freeze riders’ samples and store them in the hope that if checks are unable to turn up drug use today, maybe some day they will. As in years past, the stage winner and overall race leader automatically will be tested after each stage, along with six other cyclists. The designer drug of choice

��

in recent years has been the blood-booster EPO and — increasingly last year — an advanced version called CERA. Doping chiefs are also on the lookout for blood doping, a practice in which riders extract their own blood, store it and inject it when needed. Such transfusions have been difficult to detect, but the top anti-doping official in France has said he expects a relevant test to be perfected. Pierre Bordry, the head of France’s anti-doping agency, said in an interview last week that his testers understand blood doping better thanks in part to former rider Bernhard Kohl. Kohl, who retired last month, finished third at last year’s Tour before being caught using CERA. He has said his doping went undetected despite giving numerous samples. The World Anti-Doping Agency has given sports authorities the go-ahead to use revised methods to catch athletes cheating with EPO — one of the most widely abused banned substances in cycling. Bordry, whose agency is working with the UCI this year, has refused to reveal the new techniques of his testers to deter cheaters. Before the Tour starts, all riders will give two blood samples that will be tested and stored. Then, throughout the race, two testers will conduct the sampling after each stage. Cyclists will have chaperones to escort

them to test centers. Spain’s Alberto Contador, the 2007 winner, sat out last year after organizers excluded his Astana team because of doping allegations. Two years ago, Contador was able to win in part because thenleader Michael Rasmussen of Denmark was ousted for lying about his whereabouts during doping controls before the race. Six riders were disqualified in doping scandals last year. Former German rider Joerg Jaksche retired last year because no one would hire him after he detailed doping practices. He says he will assume that whoever wins the Tour will have doped. “I experienced it myself — doping simply helps too much,” Jaksche said in Sunday’s edition of Berlin’s Tagesspiegel newspaper. He was the first cyclist to acknowledge blood doping in the 2006 Spanish scandal known as Operation Puerto. He cooperated with sports authorities in exchange for a reduced one-year ban. Some riders still grumble about cycling’s image. “It’s so narrow-minded to think cycling is a sport for dopers,” British sprint specialist Mark Cavendish recently told The Associated Press. “It’s not like you’re born, you’re a cheat and you go: ’Oh, cycling’s the sport for me.’ It doesn’t work like that but that’s the perception of it.”

Last chance for resolution Mayfield battles NASCAR after suspension for failed drug test Jenna Fryer

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE, N.C.

Jeremy Mayfield will go head-to-head with NASCAR this week in what very well may be his last shot at racing again this season. If a federal judge agrees Wednesday to lift his indefinite suspension for a failed random drug test, Mayfield has indicated he’ll go straight to Daytona International Speedway to attempt to resurrect his career. But if the decision goes for NASCAR, then Mayfield is in for a long legal battle that potentially will destroy him personally and professionally. As the first driver suspended under a toughened new drug policy, Mayfield was thrust into a career-killing drama that’s mushroomed since a random sample collected May 1 came back positive for what NASCAR deemed “a danger-

NASCAR ous, illegal, banned substance.” He immediately denied drug use and has blamed his positive result on a mix of Adderall for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Claritin-D for allergies. His explanation, debunked by the program administrator, confused NASCAR’s competitors and forced chairman Brian France to address the drug policy in a rare town hall meeting. Then Mayfield sued to have his suspension lifted, and things really got interesting. The past 30 days have been a flurry of legal activity, culminating in last week’s filing of hundreds of pages of documents as both sides prepared for their showdown in U.S. District Court. Among the paperwork was a six-page affidavit in which Mayfield laid out his side of the story. He said he’s never used

methamphetamines and doesn’t know how his drug test came back positive. He also said the suspension has crippled his career, forcing him to lay off 10 employees, borrow money from family and sell personal assets to meet his living expenses. Mayfield said sponsors won’t work with him, and he’s not been able to send his team to the track the past five weeks. So Mayfield needs a miracle to get back on track. The question remains, though, just what does he have to return to? Mayfield started the season as one of NASCAR’s feelgood stories. Out of steady work since a 2006 firing from Evernham Motorsports, he put everything he had into Mayfield Motorsports. It was a low-budget, understaffed organization thrown together weeks before the Daytona 500 without a prayer of being successful.

Murray edges Wawrinka under roof Howard Fendrich

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WIMBLEDON, ENGLAND

They played into the night on Centre Court, later than anyone ever had in Wimbledon’s long history, and they played indoors, the first match contested entirely under the new roof. And at 10:39 p.m. Monday, when No. 3-seeded Andy Murray, of Britain, finally finished off a 26, 6-3, 6-3, 5-7, 6-3 victory against No. 19 Stanislas Wawrinka, of Switzerland, to reach the quarterfinals at the All England Club, the partisan fans celebrated their guy’s victory with quite a roar. “It was pretty special,” said Murray, who dropped to his knees when the match ended, then stood and swatted a ball straight up so hard it hit the roof. No man from Britain has won Wimbledon since Fred Perry in 1936, and, like his countrymen, Murray — a 22year-old from Scotland — is more interested in that sort of history than the sort he and Wawrinka made Monday. Still, these circumstances were rather extraordinary, what with Centre Court’s roof shut, the lights on and a chance to play the match until its rightful conclusion, no matter how late. That’s never before been the case at Wimbledon, where unlike the U.S. Open, there never has been lighted courts, and matches often are stopped in progress because of darkness. Previously, no Centre Court point had been played later than 9:35 p.m.

TENNIS — WIMBLEDON “I’ll have a pretty deep sleep after that one,” Murray said. At a tournament that began in 1877, not a single point had been contested indoors until earlier Monday, when a light sprinkle interrupted No. 1-ranked Dinara Safina’s 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory against 2006 champion Amelie Mauresmo. After the fifth game of the second set, the translucent roof above the main stadium was closed, and Safina and Mauresmo finished up underneath — even though by the time they resumed, the rain had stopped. Because forecasts called for later showers (none arrived), organizers left the contraption sealed for Murray-Wawrinka, which turned out to be a fortuitous decision, even if Murray found the conditions “very, very heavy and very humid; sweating so much.” “When I finished, it was like I’d been in a bath,” he said. Five-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer won easily, as did two-time runnerup Andy Roddick and No. 4 Novak Djokovic. Venus Williams, like Federer chasing a sixth title at the All England Club, was way ahead when her opponent, former No. 1 Ana Ivanovic, quit with a thigh injury. Williams’ younger sister, Serena, herself a twotime Wimbledon champion, and No. 4 Elena Dementieva were never challenged in their straight-set victories.

Wimbledon at a glance A look at Wimbledon on Monday: Weather: Brief rain, high of 87 degrees. Roof: The new retractable roof on Centre Court was closed during play for the first time in tournament history. Attendance: 44,478, an increase of 3,526 from the second Monday in 2008. Men’s Fourth Round: No. 2 Roger Federer beat No. 13 Robin Soderling, No. 3 Andy Murray beat No. 19 Stanislas Wawrinka, No. 4 Novak Djokovic beat Dudi Sela, No. 6 Andy Roddick beat No. 20 Tomas Berdych, No. 22 Ivo Karlovic beat No. 7 Fernando Verdasco, No. 24 Tommy Haas beat No. 29 Igor Andreev, Juan Carlos Ferrero beat No. 8 Gilles Simon, Lleyton Hewitt beat No. 23 Radek Stepanek. Women’s Fourth Round: No. 1 Dinara Safina beat No. 17 Amelie Mauresmo, No. 2 Serena Williams beat Daniela Hantuchova, No. 3 Venus Williams beat No. 13 Ana Ivanovic (retired with an injury while trailing), No. 4 Elena Dementieva beat Elena Vesnina, No. 8 Victoria Azarenka beat No. 10 Nadia Petrova, Sabine Lisicki beat No. 9 Caroline Wozniacki, No. 11 Agnieszka Radwanska beat Melanie Oudin, Francesca Schiavone beat No. 26 Virginie Razzano. Stat of the Day: 10:39 p.m. — The time Murray’s five-set victory against Wawrinka finished, more than an hour later than anyone ever had played on Centre Court. On Court today: Safina vs. Lisicki, Serena Williams vs. Azarenka, Venus Williams vs. Radwanska, Dementieva vs. Schiavone in the women’s quarterfinals. Today’s Forecast: Sunny, with a high of 86 degrees. Today’s TV: ESPN2, 5 to 8 a.m. MDT and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. MDT; NBC, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., all time zones.
