The show, organized by the Steamboat Car Club, was an opportunity for local car enthusiasts to get together and show their cars, Car Club member Patrick Browning said. He said the 5-year-old group is pretty casual. There are no membership fees or meetings. In addition to showing cars during Steamboat’s 4th of July parade, the Labor Day weekend Wild West Air Fest, and cruising Lincoln

Avenue on the third Thursday of each month, Browning said Motorhead Madness gave them another opportunity to gather and talk about cars. “It’s just for the love of the cars,” said Browning, who was showing his 1969 Rambler American. The club started after Candy Bunn volunteered with Mike See Car show, page 13

And now it has joined an international campaign called “Image Gently.” The goal of this program, embraced by more than 2,000 medical providers, is “to ensure that all children receive safe, quality care when they undergo medical imaging examinations.” A key component of Image Gently is to raise awareness about the amount of radiation exposure involved in diagnostic imaging for medical purposes — especially in computed tomography or CT scans. “CT imaging is used more frequently now because it has replaced many invasive diagnostic procedures that were formerly done, including exploratory surgeries,” YVMC radiologist Fred Jones, M.D., said. “Additionally,

YVMC Diagnostic Imaging Director Mary Jo Wiedel said radiation exposure throughout one’s lifetime is a cumulative factor. That is why it is important to limit the amount of radiation exposure received by patients, especially children. “The benefit of the exam should outweigh the risk of radiation exposure,” Wiedel said. “This applies to all patients but is especially important for our younger patients, from infancy through the age of 18.” “Children are not adults. They are more susceptible to the potentially harmful effects of radiation exposure,” Jones added. Jones explained that everyone is exposed to naturally occurring “background radiation” within our environment. Here in Colorado, the level of natural See Monday Medical, page 15

A 15-year-old girl and a 25year-old woman were rescued Sunday afternoon near the Sarvis Creek Wilderness Area in South Routt County. They left a property on Routt County Road 16 on a horseback ride early Saturday morning on Missouri Park Trail northeast toward the wilderness area, Search and Rescue Incident Commander Dawn Alperti said. She said they planned to be gone for only an hour or two to make it back for breakfast. Search and Rescue spokeswoman Riley Polumbus said the 15-year-old girl is the babysitter of the 25-year-old’s children. Their names were not released. Alperti said family members began searching for them at about 3 p.m. Saturday and paged Search

Caterpillars in our gardens O

ne of the favorite speakers at our master gardener classes is the entomologist from Colorado State University, Whitney Cranshaw. He tells us about bugs in our gardens. According to Cranshaw, all bugs have a purpose here on Earth. It’s just that some bugs tend to — well, bug us more than others. One of the bugs we’re finding in our yards and gardens this month is the painted lady/thistle caterpillar. It is a black caterpillar with some light flecks and spiny thorn-like appendages that are harmless. The most common host plant for this caterpillar is the Canada thistle. That’s good because this noxious weed is a real problem in Colorado. However, this caterpillar will inch toward garden plants such as sunflower, hollyhock, basil, artemisia and geraniums if there are no thistles to latch onto. These caterpillars usually produce a little webbing as they feed on the leaves of plants. When this insect metamorphes, it becomes a beautiful orange, black and white spotted painted lady butterfly. Many gardeners in Steamboat also have noted hornworm

GARDENING WITH

Deb Babcock caterpillars in their yards. The whitelined sphinx is the most common. It matures into the hummingbird moth that so many of us are delighted to see in our gardens. These caterpillars are green with light striping and tend to live on aspen, cottonwood, poplar and willow trees. They rarely are found in large enough numbers to cause injury to your trees. Two other species of hornworms found in Routt County vegetable gardens are the tomato hornworm and the tobacco hornworm. These caterpillars can be quite a surprise to come across in your garden with the scary-looking horn on their hind end. The horn apparently has no known function except to scare gardeners, says Cranshaw. You can tell the difference between these two caterpillars by the color of the “horn” they sport. Tomato hornworms have a dark green horn, while that of

the tobacco hornworms are red. These caterpillars tend to tunnel into the flower buds, preventing or limiting the flowering of the plant, tomatoes as well as elm, ash and poplar trees and weeds such as purslane. The alfalfa caterpillar, present in large numbers this year in alfalfa fields or meadows where alfalfa may once have grown, has a green body with a narrow white stripe on each side. Hairs grow out of small dark spots on this insect, which is about 1 1/4 inches long at maturity. Alfalfa caterpillars consume the leaf midrib of foliage. Natural predators are spiders and parasitic wasps. When yellow and white butterflies appear in your fields, it might be a good time to cut your alfalfa before they lay eggs and the larvae begin consuming your crop. So if the caterpillars are not causing too much damage in your garden, enjoy watching them turn into beautiful butterflies later this season.

COMMENTARY

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

The losers hang on Thomas L. Friedman THE NEW YORK TIMES

JALOZAI CAMP, PAKISTAN

After spending a week traveling the frontline of the “war on terrorism” — from the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan in the seas off Iran, to northern Iraq, to Afghanistan and into northwest Pakistan — I can comfortably report the following: The bad guys are losing. Yes, the dominos you see falling in the Muslim world today are the extremist Islamist groups and governments. They Friedman have failed to convince people by their arguments or by their performances in power that their puritanical versions of Islam are the answer. Having lost the argument, though, the radicals still hang on, thanks to gun barrels and oil barrels

— and they can for a while. Because, although the radicals have failed miserably, our allies — the proAmericans, the Muslim modernists, the Arab moderates — have not really filled the void with reform and good government of their own. They are winning by default. More on that later. For now, though, it is obvious that everywhere they have won or seized power, the Islamists — in Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Lebanon or Gaza — have overplayed their hands, dragged their societies into useless wars or engaged in nihilistic violence that today is producing a broad backlash from mainstream Muslims. Think of this: In the late-1970s, two leaders made historic trips — President Anwar Sadat flew from Egypt to Israel, and Ayatollah Khomeini flew from Paris to Tehran. For the past 30 years, politics in the Middle East and the Muslim world has, in many ways, been a struggle

between their competing visions. Sadat argued that the future should bury the past and that Arabs and Muslims should build their future based on peace with Israel, integration with the West and embracing modernity. Khomeini argued that the past should bury the future and that Persians and Muslims should build their future on hostility to Israel, isolation from the West and subordinating modernity to a puritanical Islam. In 2009, the struggle between those two trends tipped toward the Sadatists. The fact that Iran’s ruling theocrats had to steal their election to stay in power and forcibly suppress dissent by millions of Iranians — according to the Committee to Protect Journalists, Iran has surpassed China as the world’s leading jailer of journalists, with 41 now behind bars — is the most visible sign See Friedman, page 9

Obama’s Henry Gates-gate Clarence Page

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

I disagree with President Barack Obama. I don’t think the Cambridge, Mass., police officer who arrested Harvard Prof. Henry Louis Gates Jr., for “disorderly conduct” in his own home acted “stupidly.” Sgt. James M. Crowley’s use of legal force was excessive, in my view, yet well tailored to fit Gates’ real offense in the police sergeant’s eyes: “Contempt of cop.” Page As just about everyone on the planet knows by now, Sgt. Crowley visited Gates in his home to find out whether he really lived there. A female passerby had seen Gates and another man forcing open the stuck front door of his own home and summoned police for a possible burglary.

MALLARD FILLMORE

The sergeant said the scholar repeatedly accused him of racism and made derogatory remarks about his mother, to wit: “Yeah, I’ll speak to your mama when we get outside.” Not nice. But Gates and his lawyer dispute Crowley’s account, calling it exaggerated and partly fabricated. After Gates was released and the charges were dropped, President Obama rekindled the controversy by saying Cambridge police “acted stupidly,” during the encounter. Obama later backpedaled a bit. He called the sergeant “an outstanding police officer,” yet maintained that “it would have been better if cooler heads had prevailed.” Indeed, it would. But that’s not easy when two versions of pride come into conflict. Obama knows Gates as I do, as a jolly 58-year-old scholar and multimedia star who walks with a cane. If he was “loud and tumultuous,” as Crowley claims — and that Gates disputes — I would

not excuse such behavior. Nevertheless, I would argue that he hardly poses a physical threat as long as he does not swing his cane at you. Yet it is not hard for me to believe he might lose at least a little of his cool after arriving home tired and jetlagged from a trip to China, only to find a police officer checking him out to see whether he really lived in that nice neighborhood. So does Paul Butler, a black George Washington University law professor and former Washington, D.C., prosecutor who has seen other minor misunderstandings explode into a blamestorm, especially when they involve possible prejudgment by race. “The police were right to investigate the call,” he said. “The former prosecutor in me says the police have to ask who you are and what you are doing. It is an unpleasant aspect of urban policing. ... See Page, page 9 Bruce Tinsley

Islam should be authentic yet modern alphabet to young boys in a sweltering tent. “They are very cruel. They chopped people’s heads off.” To the extent that the radical Islamists have any energy today, it comes not from the power of their ideas or examples of good governance, but by stoking sectarian feuds. In Afghanistan, the Taliban play on Pashtun nationalist grievances, and in Iraq, the Sunni jihadists draw energy from killing Shiites. The only way to really dry up their support, though, is for the Arab and Muslim modernists to actually implement better ideas by producing less corrupt and more consensual governance, with better schools, more economic opportunities and a vision of Islam that is perceived as authentic yet embracing of modernity. That is where “our” allies in Egypt, Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan have so consistently failed. Until that happens, the Islamist radicals will be bankrupt but not out of business.

People argue as if they were in Gates’ house Page continued from 8 But I can certainly understand how in your own home you reach a tipping point and you feel as though you have had enough — and I understand how it would make a black man ‘loud and tumultuous.’” Or as the late Lu Palmer, a black political journalist-activist I used to cover in Chicago, used to say, some situations are “enough to make a Negro turn black!” Even the biracial and normally reserved Obama seemed to be speaking from that black cultural memory as he perhaps-too-quickly attached “racial profiling” to this incident before he knew all the facts. Like Obama, Butler is a Harvard Law School graduate and, like Gates, he has been arrested for a crime that, in his case, he did not commit. In his

clever and remarkably evenhanded book, “Let’s Get Free: A Hip-Hop Theory of Justice,” Butler recounts his experiences with admirable evenhanded toward racial profilers and the profiled. It is understandable to take race into account sometimes, he allows, but it never should be the sole reason why you suspect someone. Yet he does not call Gatesgate a classic case of racial profiling. In the world of civilian-police relations, says Butler, it was more of a classic “Who’s the Man?” contest. Racial or not, he told me, the incident stopped being good policing and became a Who’s-the-Man episode after Gates handed over his ID. As Crowley prepared to leave, according to his own arrest report, which has been posted on www.thesmokinggun.com, Gates kept yelling at him.

That’s the point when the officer should turn around and leave,” Butler said. “You know the man is going to be yelling at you, but you leave.” Maybe so, but, according to Crowley, Gate was yelling at him in front of his fellow police officers. In long-standing police-civilian etiquette, that’s “contempt of cop.” You disrespect the police officer, the officer has ways of showing you that he has a longer billy club. In that sense, Crowley and the other officers probably never expected Gates’ arrest to hold up, and it didn’t. Now people across the country, including me, are arguing about what happened as if we were there in Gates’ house and can read the minds of everyone involved. Based on our own experiences, it is easy to feel as if we were, even when we only fool ourselves.

of this. The Taliban’s burning down of secular schools that compete with its mosques, and its peddling of heroin to raise cash, also are not exactly signs of intellectual triumph. The same day that President Barack Obama spoke to the Muslim world from Cairo University, Osama bin Laden released a long statement on Islamic Web sites and on AlJazeera. As the Egyptian Middle East expert Mamoun Fandy noted: “Obama beat Osama, hands down. Ask anyone about the content of Obama’s speech, and they will tell you. Ask them what Osama said, and most people will say, ‘Did he give a speech?’” In Iraq’s January elections, nationalist and moderate Muslim parties defeated the sectarian, radical religious parties, while in Lebanon, a pro-Western coalition defeated one led by Hezbollah. Here in Pakistan, the back-

lash against the Taliban has been building among the rising middle class. It started in March when a mobile-phone video of a teenage girl being held down and beaten outside her home by a Taliban commander in Pakistan’s Swat Valley spread virally across this country. In May, the Pakistani army began an offensive against Taliban militants who had taken control of key towns in the North-West Frontier Province, and appeared to be moving toward the capital, Islamabad. I followed Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, when he visited a vast, choking-hot and dust-covered refugee tent camp in Jalozai, where about 116,000 refugees have fled the NWFP, as the Pakistani army moved into their hometowns to smash the Taliban in a popular operation. “People are totally against them, but the Taliban don’t care,” a Pakistani teacher, Abdul Jalil, 41, told me while taking a break from teaching the Urdu

Disability awareness highlights challenges, opportunities Tamera Manzanares

Resources

SPECIAL TO THE PILOT & TODAY

Disability Awareness Week is a time to think about challenges facing people with disabilities or, taking awareness one step further, to pretend to have a disability. Look for something in a dark basement, for example, or tie an arm to your belt. Try to do chores with thick heavy gloves to see how it would feel to have no feeling in your hands or feet, a condition called neuropathy. After all, it’s likely most people will experience a disability some time in their lives. About one in five people live with a disability in the U.S., according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Our chances for acquiring a disability increase as we age: About 45 percent of people 65 to 69 have a disability and nearly 74 percent of those 80 and older have a disability. A disability, in general, is a physical, psychological or emotional condition creating significant barriers to performing activities of every day life. Disabilities can happen as a result of illness, injury, genetics or other causes. Sunday’s start to Disability Awareness Week coincided with the 19th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities and defines their rights, including access to public places. The ADA helped facilitate organizations such as the Independent Life Center in Craig, which advocates for individuals with disabilities and provides counseling and referrals to help them live independently. The ILC and other similar programs have highlighted challenges facing people with disabilities as well as how they can learn to cope with those challenges to live active and fulfilling lives.

��

While resources, such as transportation and affordable therapy services, can be sparse, particularly in rural areas, they do exist. Learning about these resources is one of the first steps toward becoming an active and contributing member of one’s community. That’s where the ILC comes in. The organization, one of 10 certified Centers for Independent Living in Colorado, accesses individuals’ varying needs, such as home adaptation or repair, health services or equipment, employment training and education opportunities — and directs them to local, state or national funding sources or programs designed to help. The ILC’s ultimate goal is to provide people with disabilities the tools to advocate for themselves and succeed in their goals. “That means strengthening them so they have the inner strength and self-confidence to do that,” said Evelyn Tileston, the ILC’s executive director. The ILC, for example, has a computer lab and instruction available, as well as a program helping individuals get a computer to help with education or job skills. The organization also works with programs that help with job training or employment opportunities. Rocky Mountain SER (Service, Employment, Redevelopment) program assists eligible older adults by paying their wages while they learn job skills at a host agency such as the ILC.

■ The Independent Life Center provides advocacy, support and referrals to helpful resources for individuals with disabilities and their caregivers. The ILC serves clients in Moffat, Routt, Rio Blanco, Grand and Summit counties. For more information, call the main office in Craig at 826-0833 or 1-888526-0833. ■ The Colorado Division of Vocational Rehabilitation assists eligible individuals with disabilities to become productive members of the work force through a variety of programs. For more information, call offices in Craig at 824-3246 or Steamboat Springs at 871-4853; or visit www.cdhs.state.co.us/DVR/. ■ Rocky Mountain SER (Service, Employment, Redevelopment) provides employment, training and education opportunities to disadvantaged individuals through programs such as the Senior Community Services Employment Program for unemployed people 55 and older. For more information, call 303-480-9394 or visit www. rmser.org. ■ For information and resources related to living with a disability — such as disability laws, housing, health care, employment and education opportunities — visit www.disabilityinfo.gov. ■ For more information about the Americans with Disabilities Act, visit www.ada.gov or www.adanet.org.

The likelihood of having a disability increases as we age. Organizations such as the Independent Life Center are using this week to highlight how many people with disabilities are, or can become, active and contributing members of their communities.

“We love to help people, and we are helping these people get skills they can market,” Tileston said. Much of the support the ILC provides older people with disabilities focuses on helping them remain as independent as possible so they do not have to go to nursing homes. This can involve connecting families with local adult day programs, which care for disabled and older adults during the day while caregivers work or attend other needs or finding funds to help pay for therapy services when insurance or Medicare benefits run out. Other ILC programs and partnerships, such as VizAbilities, offer ongoing support to individuals experiencing vision or hearing loss as well as information about assistive devices and technology to help with everyday tasks. In 2005, the U.S. Surgeon General issued a call to action to improve the quality of life of

people with disabilities through better health services and understanding. Increasing awareness that people with disabilities can lead long, healthy and productive lives was one of the action’s goals. Education is a key component of awareness. This week and throughout the year, for example, representatives from the Colorado Workforce Centers are available to make presentations to businesses about employing people with disabilities. ILC staff also is available to make presentations about a variety of topics, including disability etiquette, which emphasizes treating people with disabilities with respect — not making assumptions about their abilities but also not being afraid to ask questions. “There’s nothing wrong with saying, ‘Do you need a little help there?’” Tileston said. It’s important that individuals with disabilities take advantage of opportunities to educate oth-

ers by being positive role models and being open to questions. “Once people feel like they can talk to you, … you’ve created an atmosphere of negotiation and compassion, and you can’t make any progress without that,” Tileston said. Tamera Manzanares writes for the Aging Well program and can be reached at tmanzanares@nwcovna.org or 871-7606. Aging Well, a division of Northwest Colorado Visiting Nurse Association, is a community-based program of healthy aging for adults 50 and older.

Resident: These cars are running, beautiful and timeless Car show continued from 1 Gotchey, a local veterinarian, on ranch calls throughout Routt County. Bunn said she noticed classic cars — stashed away in barns or on properties in the county — that she’d never seen on the road. So she told her husband, Maury, to see whether they could find a way to get them out into the public. “That’s how a lot of classic cars start,” he said. “They’re junkers in a field.” Maury Bunn, who was displaying his 1967 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser Wagon and 1965 Shelby

Cobra replica Sunday, said the car club started with a classified ad in the newspaper. It since has grown to include 250 people on the club’s mailing list. The Motorhead Madness show Sunday also included a contingent from Craig’s car club, Colorado Cruisers. President George Vassek said 13 cars, including his 1957 Chevy Wagon, made their way from Craig to Steamboat for the show. “Steamboat’s just like Craig,” he said. “There are a lot of cars in town, and people don’t get them out. They need them out to show them.”

Other youngsters who attended the event with their families had similar responses to that of Vincent Schierenberg. Wynn Gwozdz, a 5-year-old visiting Steamboat with his family from Boulder, marveled at some of the other 30 or so cars on display. He said his favorite was a black 1932 Ford because, “It’s cool.” His sister, 8-year-old Ella, had a little more to say about the Ford, which also was her favorite car at the show. “The new cars, they all kind of look the same,” she said. “The old cars are all different.” For Steamboat resident Tony

Cacioppo, car shows such as Motorhead Madness take him back to a time when cars were of better quality and designed with unique styling — what made American-made manufacturing the best in the world. “With such a great tradition of American cars, I wonder how we got into the mess we’re in today with American car manufacturers,” said Cacioppo, who owns a 1977 Porsche 911S and a 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. “These cars are still running, beautiful and timeless. Maybe we should return to the old tradition of car manufacturing.”

In addition to performing a solo flute piece, flute master Alberto Almarza will join Strings Music Director Monique Mead for a lullaby by Iranian composer Reza Vali. Mead will play crystal glasses and Almarza will play the Shakuhachi flute, a traditional Japanese instrument made from the root end of bamboo stem. The instrument can be used to play a wide repertoire of original

Zen music, ensemble music with other Japanese instruments, folk music, jazz and other modern pieces. During the 1980s, it was shipped as a “preset” instrument on synthesizers and keyboards, and it can be heard on music by such pop artists as Peter Gabriel, Sade and Michael Bolton. The concert also will include pieces by Moszkowski, Bach and Brahms. Elissa Greene is education and

The club, which provides activities for children ages 6 to 18, has grown considerably since opening its doors about six weeks ago. On its first day, 37 children showed up. Now, the club boasts 362 members and averages about 75 children a day, Martyn said. Boys & Girls Club activities include sports and recreation, arts and crafts, and educational programming. Leadership training, health and life skills instruction and teen programming also are available. Children can earn “Club Bucks,” which then can be used to purchase prizes. Pizza parties, for example, cost 500 Club Bucks. By comparison, the city’s summer program, for children in kindergarten through fifth grade, has served 207 children, about 87 a day, said Jennifer Travis, youth program coordinator for the Steamboat’s Parks, Open Space & Recreational

Services Department. The city’s summer enrollment is down from 110 children a day last year and 116 a day in 2007, Travis said. Travis said she didn’t know whether the Boys & Girls Club had affected enrollment in the city’s program, which has been offered for about 20 years. But she said feedback the city has received from parents indicated the lower enrollment was a product of the economy. “People are losing their jobs or having their hours cut back,” Travis said. “Parents are able to stay home more with their kids, which is fantastic.” Like the city, which offers an after-school program from 3 to 5:45 p.m. at a cost of $10 per day, Martyn said the Boys & Girls club also will be available in the fall. She said they’re planning the after-school program, which will be available from 3 to 7 p.m. Martyn said it likely would be similar to the summer program,

with a variety of activities for children in addition to homework help. She said the cost for the fall program hasn’t yet been determined. Martyn said many parents who have taken their children to the Boys & Girls Club this summer have expressed excitement for the after-school program in the fall. Until the school year starts in August, the Boys & Girls Club will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. It costs $1 per hour or $10 per day. The city’s summer program is open from 7:30 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. and costs $32 per day. For more information about the Boys & Girls Club, call Martyn at 846-7710.

Wiedel: Safe care a priority Monday Medical continued from 2 radiation is considerably higher than at sea level. A CT scan can be equivalent to one to two years of background radiation exposure. The majority of CT scans performed on children are to care for emergency conditions such as trauma or appendicitis, Jones said. For emergent scenarios such as these, a CT scan can be the best diagnostic tool available. “There is a considerable amount of restraint among the medical community here in ordering CT scans only when they are necessary,” Jones said. “The potential risk of radiation exposure is weighed against the risk of not getting an accurate diagnosis.” Ed Havel, radiologic technologist and lead CT tech at YVMC, explained that radiographers apply the technique called ALARA. This means using a radiation dosage that is “as low as reasonably achievable.” Havel said YVMC adopted national pediatric protocols for CT scanning soon after they were introduced eight years ago. After a physician orders a scan for a pediatric patient, a radiologist at YVMC reviews the order. Then the radiographer sets the imaging equipment parameters based on the child’s weight so the correct dosage of radiation will be used. YVMC’s radiology equipment is calibrated by a physicist annually to ensure that it is within the manufacturer’s specifications and national standards. Image Gently recommends that parents become aware of the amount of radiation exposure their children are receiving. “We encourage parents to keep an imaging log for their children, much like an immunization record,” Wiedel said. “This can help prevent repetitive imaging, especially when more than one physician or hospital is involved in a child’s medical care.” YVMC has created cards on which parents can note the dates and types of imaging exams their child has received. Information sheets also explain medical radiation and how it is measured. “Providing safe care is our mission at YVMC,” Wiedel said. “Our Diagnostic Imaging care team has always been knowledgeable about this issue. Now we want to get the message out there to parents.” Christine McKelvie is public relations director at Yampa Valley Medical Center. She can be reached at christine. mckelvie@yvmc.org.

Ted Harvey said the bill would require state officials to use the Colorado attorney general’s legal team except in emergencies or when there is a conflict. Harvey said Ritter, a Democrat, should not have hired his former law firm, Washingtonbased Hogan & Hartson, because “it’s inappropriate and sends a bad message.” Hogan & Hartson was hired in April in a no-bid contract. The firm has been paid $40,000 through June. Ritter’s office staff said hiring the firm was proper and approved by Attorney General John Suthers.

Unclear whether mental health moves at base work COLORADO SPRINGS

A commander of the Army base where a single unit had 10 infantrymen accused of murder, attempted murder or manslaughter after returning to the United States instituted measures to stop the violence. But it’s far from clear whether they’re working. The Colorado Springs Gazette reports Maj. Gen. Mark Graham added mental health counselors at Fort Carson, ordered mandatory mental health screenings for all soldier doctor visits and had officers trained to spot returning soldiers in trouble. But it’s unclear whether the measures, some of them nearly two years old, are working. In May, police arrested a former Fort Carson soldier in the shooting death of a 19-year-old woman. Another soldier shot himself in the head this year. A third awaits trial for wounding a pregnant woman.

Woman represented by phony lawyer appeals case DENVER

A woman convicted of trying to hire someone to kill her son’s father is appealing her case because the man who represented her has been found guilty of impersonating a lawyer. Gwen Bergman was convicted in May of two federal murderfor-hire felonies. Her attorney is asking the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver to set aside her conviction or return the case to district court so her sentence can be reduced. Bergman has been in jail since 2004 and is serving a nine-year sentence. Federal prosecutors said Bergman received proper representation because a licensed attorney aided the attorney she hired, Howard Kieffer. Kieffer faces 25 years in prison when sentenced next month. He was convicted in April in U.S. District Court in Bismarck, N.D., of mail fraud and making false statements connected to his posing as an attorney there.

Boulder DA wants the possibility of 3rd term BOULDER

Boulder County’s District Attorney wants voters to decide whether he and future prosecutors elected to his office can run for an additional four-year term. Stan Garnett said he wants the county commissioners to put the question on the ballot for voters this fall to let them choose whether Boulder’s district attorneys can have three terms instead of two. The commissioners are expected to decide Aug. 4 whether to grant Garnett’s request. Garnett took office in January after being elected in November. He said an additional term would give the office continuity. Garnett said he doesn’t know yet whether he would run for a third time if given the opportunity.

School of Mines has a record fundraising year GOLDEN

Colorado School of Mines officials said the university has posted a record for fundraising this year with more than $30 million in gifts and commitments. Officials said research volume at the school also is at an all-time high with more than $50 million in awards. Officials said both figures are for the 2009 fiscal year that ended June 30. Officials said the school’s endowment is estimated at $147 million.

Luke Graham PILOT & TODAY STAFF

Average guys with awesome abilities

here’s a lot to like about action sports. The once second-tiered sports world of the X Games, Dew Tour — and anything else that involves a little bit of lunacy — has come a long way in the past 15 to 20 years. Action sports have pushed their way to the edge of the mainstream. Certainly they don’t compete with football, baseball or basketball on a national level, but they’ve certainly found a niche. It’s not hard to see why. Who doesn’t want to see Travis Pastrana do a double back flip? And talks about a triple back flip or back flip-360 have been thrown around this year. It’s that lunacy that people love. It’s seeing something and thinking, “I’d never do that.” But looking around, there is a better reason why action sports are growing: the athletes. There is a huge difference between professional athletes who play football, baseball or basketball and the ones who do flips on skis, bikes, motorcycles, snowmobiles or anything else. The extreme athletes seem more like everyday guys. NBA, NFL and MLB stars don’t want their lives in the public. They won’t tell their story, for the most part. At times, you can’t blame them. If they say something a little off the cuff or do something a little weird, they’re torn apart in the media. Extreme sports stars are different. We embrace them as crazy, off-the-cuff guys. Take three-time Winter X Games bronze medalist Colby James West, who was training at Bald Eagle Lake all week. By most accounts, West is your average guy. He sports a Mohawk, always smiles and can tell a joke. See Graham, page 22

Mike Diesburg tries to get control of his dirt bike as he hammers the throttle while pulling away from the starting line in Sunday’s Greenridge Enduro race near Phippsburg. The race sent riders on as many as five laps around the 13-mile course, testing their endurance, focus and technical riding ability.

300 riders, clouds of dust

Enduro racing returns to Routt County on Sunday near Phippsburg Joel Reichenberger PILOT & TODAY STAFF

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Racers made three, four or five laps on the 13-mile course in the Greenridge Enduro race, but it didn’t take Steamboat Springs daredevil Kerry Lofy very long to figure out why it’s called enduro racing. Lofy, who last winter became one of only a few people to have

hucked Hells Wall, took a different kind of flying leap Sunday on the Phippsburg-area course. This time, he went hurtling over the handle bars of his dirt bike midway through his first lap. In that vault, he realized how the sport got its name. “I was done right there,” he said. “I had to sit for five minutes before I could even get back on my bike.” The trail, carved into the sage

and through the forests between Oak Creek and Phippsburg, tested the endurance of all 300 riders who showed up for the first-time event. Often forcing riders to stick to the saddle for most of four or five hours, it physically drained them. Daunting uphill and steep downhill sections — interspersed with suck-it-in stretches where a trail just 32 inches wide ran between thick tree trunks — took a toll

on both man and machine. Everpresent dust often reduced racers’ visibility, clouding goggles and pushing an already worn out rider’s frayed nerves ever closer to the edge. “They don’t have races like this on the Front Range,” said Denver rider Ian Blythe, who won last year’s Rocky Mountain Enduro Circuit.

Generations of all sorts took to the courts, and that was the best part of the weekend’s Steamboat Tennis Association Championships, Jim Swiggart said Sunday after the final matches had ended. “We had 20 future high

school players playing in the Results from junior divisions, the STA tourney 11 current high See page 23 school players and six past high school players all playing in the adult divisions,” said Swiggart, director of the Tennis Center at Steamboat Springs. “It just turned out great.” The tournament was a fund-

raiser for local high school tennis teams and junior programs. The three-day event featured the largest field in its 17-year history, Swiggart said. “Probably half the field was adults who have children who no longer play for the team,” he said. “But they enjoy the event so much and enjoy supporting the program so much, they continue coming back out each year.”

Individual champions at this year’s event included Coyt Majure in the men’s 3.0-3.5 singles division, Steve Harrison in men’s 4.0 singles, Keegan Burger in 4.5 singles, Louis Nijsten in men’s 5.0 singles, Mary Weiss in women’s 3.5 singles, Christina Allevato in women’s 4.0 singles and Molly Weiss in women’s 4.5 singles.

Event back in Routt County after 15 years Enduro continued from 20 The race sent bikers away from the starting line in teams, one each from four different competitive classes. The highest class, A, ran five laps while the beginner class logged three. The idea was for racers to tear through the course at an average of 36 miles an hour, an almost impossible standard to uphold. They checked in at tents scattered across the course and lost points based on how far they had slipped from the ideal time. The event marked enduro racing’s return to Routt County after a 15-year absence. The sport first came to the area with a 1972 race in Little Red Park in northern Routt County. Organizers pulled the plug on the then-annual event in 1994. “We wanted to start it back up to give them a chance to race in the mountains,” race director Delbert Bostock said. “We’re very happy. We haven’t had any major injuries. And, for a firstyear event, we weren’t expecting

300 to show up. That’s great.” The Rocky Mountain Enduro Circuit includes races in Colorado, Wyoming, Texas and Nebraska. Sunday’s racers came from across the country. Plenty of locals took the chance to get in on the action, too. Lofy said he’s been riding dirt bikes for years, but Sunday’s was his first race. “I’ll definitely do it again,” he said. “I’ll probably train more next year.” Richard Strait is a regular at local motocross events with his sons, Soroco High School students David and Ben. The massive event seemingly in his backyard was too much for his crew to pass up. “I’m a little cramped up,” he said, wincing only moments after finishing the race. “It’s so tiring, and once you get tired, it’s hard to keep riding the way you need to ride.” As Lofy rubbed an injured shoulder and Strait made peace with the aches in his body, Vail resident Jordan Harrill was pre-

paring for the last of his four laps. “There’s nothing like this,” he said, grinning as he waited to start. “But it’s tough. The trail out here changes every lap. There are different bumps, and you have to take different lines. The sand gets loose, and it’s hard to turn. “You have to keep focused. I guess that’s why they call it enduro racing.” Results from Sunday’s Greenridge Enduro were not available at press time.

Rockies up 2 in wild card

STEAMBOAT TODAY

When traffic filled the bases, Aaron Cook’s sinker was superb as the pitch dipped and dropped to bail him out of trouble. Cook relied heavily on his trademark pitch to win his seventh straight decision Sunday, leading the Colorado Rockies to a 4-2 victory against the San Francisco Giants. Cook gave up nine hits in seven innings, yet always seemed to wiggle off the hook as he allowed just two runs.

SUNDAY’S GAME:

Rockies 4 Giants 2

“It’s not the end of the world if somebody’s on,” Cook said with a shrug. “I really don’t worry about guys on base. Once they’re on, what am I

going to do?” Let his defense go to work. The Giants rolled into 16 groundouts, including a double play in the fourth that thwarted a potential rally.

Cook (10-3) has now forced 17 double play this season, which ranks among the National League leaders. “He’s got one of the best (sinkers) in the game and good command of it,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. “When you’re facing a guy like Cook, you know you have your work cut out.” For a series in July, this almost had a playoff vibe to it. And by taking two of three, the Rockies increased their NL wild-card lead to two games past the Giants.

The Denver Broncos’ offseason of change and chagrin is about to give way to the team’s first training camp without Mike Shanahan in 15 years. New quarterback Kyle Orton and recalcitrant wide receiver Brandon Marshall are due at Dove Valley with the rookies and rehabbers today, three days before the rest of the squad reports for

new coach Josh McDaniels’ first training camp. Shanahan’s Dec. 30 firing set off a stormy offseason that has divided the Broncos’ faithful into two camps: ■ Those who welcome Shanahan’s two rookie replacements, McDaniels and general manager Brian Xanders, as they try to restore the lost luster to a franchise that has just one playoff win in the past decade.

■ And those who view McDaniels and Xanders as smug thirtysomethings who are in over their heads and hold out little hope for a quick fix. McDaniels, 33, who tutored Tom Brady and Matt Cassel in New England, has never been a head coach at any level. He got off to a rocky start in Denver when he alienated Pro Bowl quarterback Jay Cutler and eventually traded him to Chicago for Orton and a bevy of draft picks.

Action sports continue to be endearing

��

Graham continued from 20 He signed autographs for freestyle skiers and had backand-forths with numerous athletes, talking to everyone. People busted his chops, would razz him a little, and West would just laugh and offer a

counter jab. Could you imagine any athlete in mainstream sports doing that? Just last week, LeBron James and Nike had video confiscated when Xavier’s Jordan Crawford dunked on him. My guess is, if there is a video of someone dunking on West, he probably is doing the commentary for it. He also was open to sharing his life story — one that tells a lot about what skiing means to him. He quit college and moved everything he had to Breckenridge to pursue a skiing career. The dude slept in his car for almost two years. Starting your car in the morning in the middle of winter is one thing.

Waking up in it more than 400 times is something totally different. It’s crazy, wild and, most importantly, telling. Just a guess, but a guy who braves sub-zero temperatures while sleeping in his car for almost two years must love his sport, must be driven and probably doesn’t have the word “can’t” in his vocabulary. He’s also one of the reasons why action sports have become — and will continue to become — endearing to the American public. — To reach Luke Graham, call 871-4229 or e-mail lgraham@steamboatpilot.com
