A $3 million cut to the state parks system is forcing officials to make difficult decisions about proposals such as fee increases, but Routt County thus far has been spared from the most drastic decreases in spending. Traditionally, the state Legislature has allocated about 10 percent of the state parks system’s budget from the state

general fund. For this fiscal year, which began July 1, the Legislature cut its share by 32 percent, or about 5 percent of the agency’s total budget. Colorado State Parks spokeswoman Deb Frazier said the agency is eliminating 12.5 positions, leaving vacancies open and cutting back on other expenses such as travel, administration, equipment and seasonal employees. Parks employees also must take mandatory furlough days instituted statewide.

The agency also is proposing increases to camping, reservation and boating registration fees. The Colorado State Parks Board will vote on the proposed increases at its board meeting Sept. 17 and 18 in Steamboat Springs. If approved, the new fees would take effect Jan. 1. Last week, Colorado State Parks announced it would close Bonny Lake State Park in eastern Colorado from Oct. 1 to May 1. “It’s one of those parks

Eight B vitamins take to the field daily to perform essential tasks in a healthy body. As a team, they provide energy and functions that allow the body to do what it wants to do. Originally thought of as one vitamin, vitamin B actually is a complex of eight chemically distinct vitamins: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9 and B12. They work jointly to help the body perform several important tasks. “The B vitamins are multitaskers,” said Pam Wooster, registered dietician at Yampa Valley Medical Center. “They are involved in many processes in the body.” One of the primary jobs of the “B Team” is breaking down the nutrients in food. Some work together to break down carbohydrates, which are converted into energy. Others take on fats and protein, which aid in the functioning of the nervous system. B vitamins promote cell growth, including the production of red blood cells. They also help maintain healthy eyes, skin, lips and hair.

��

“No B vitamin stands out above the rest,” Wooster said. “We need all the B vitamins for efficient metabolism and can get them by eating a well-balanced diet. Sources are spread out among all the food groups; so eating from all four food groups is important.” For example, B1, or thiamine, is found in whole-grain cereals, breads, rice, yeast, corn and nuts. B12 is found primarily in meats. Dairy is a good source for B2, or riboflavin. And B9, also known as folate or folic acid, can be obtained from green, leafy vegetables. B vitamins can co-exist within one source of food; wholegrain cereals also contain B9, and milk also provides B12. As many B vitamins come from animal sources, they are not part of a vegan’s diet. Individuals who do not eat meat or dairy and some strict vegetarians may require a

supplement. Additionally, consumption of alcohol can interfere with the body’s ability to harness the power of B vitamins and may lead to deficiency. Adults older than age 60 are at risk for B12 deficiency. This condition also is common among those who have a digestive condition such as Crohn’s or sprue (celiac), whether or not they have had surgery to remove part of the digestive system. Decreased ability to absorb B12 from food can lead to tiredness, decreased concentration and memory, irritability and depression. Sleep disturbances also may develop. Serious cases of B12 deficiency can cause anemia. Mild B12 deficiency often can be resolved by taking a supplement. A health care provider may recommend B12 shots for more serious cases. Vitamin B9 is prescribed for pregnant women to assist in the healthy development of the fetus. Because folate is most helpful just after conception, some physicians recommend See Monday Medical, page 11

Local event a ‘Super Bowl’ precursor Sixth annual Stock Dog Challenge kicks off Saturday at the Stanko Ranch STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

About 65 dogs, mostly border collies, will compete in the sixth annual Steamboat Stock Dog Challenge this weekend. The sheep herding trial is from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sept. 5 to 7 at the Stanko Ranch, about 3 1/2 miles from Bud Werner Memorial Library on Twentymile Road. The event is free for spectators. The dogs, whose 45 handlers will travel to Steamboat Springs from across the country, will compete in two divisions, open and intermediate, event organizer Marianne Sasak said. The dogs will fetch (bring a herd of sheep back to their handlers from several hundred yards away), drive (take a herd of sheep away), and shud (separate individual sheep from the rest of the flock). Sasak said the dogs will be judged based on how quietly and efficiently they perform each task. This year’s event will be judged by Derek Fisher, an Idaho resident and past winner of the Meeker Classic.

Sheep trials have grown in popularity, and on sunny days, Sasak said, as many as 1,000 spectators have shown up to watch on the hill that overlooks the field where the dogs perform. “There’s no other trial like that in the U.S.,” she said. “That’s why our trial is one of the nicest ones going.” Victoria Long, vice president of the Mountain and Plains Border Collie Association near Denver, has been coming to the Steamboat Stock Dog Challenge for years. She said the event is a tune-up for the Meeker Classic, taking place Sept. 9 to 13. “It’s the last big trial before the Super Bowl of the border collie world,” she said. “That’s what we call Meeker.” Long added that the Steam-

boat Stock Dog Challenge is a great place for handlers from across the country to practice on Colorado sheep before Meeker. It is very common to see border collies herding sheep on ranches in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and Idaho, Long said. She said border collies, which get their names from their origins along the borders of Scotland and England, were used to herd sheep beginning more than 100 years ago.

The Stock Dog Challenge also includes activities for children, including stations where they can make butter, paint T-shirts, inspect a sheep camp, examine livestock guard dogs and see different breeds of sheep. Lunch is available each day; roasted lamb will be served between 1 and 2 p.m. Sunday. A yard sale to be benefit the Routt County 4-H Scholarship Fund is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

I gave the same answer every time — mule’s ears — to the repeatedly asked question by locals and visitors alike as to what the yellow flowers were that conspicuously painted our hillsides, hilltops and fields and dotted our ditches. I look forward to them every spring, but I also was

struck by how profuse and longlasting they were this year, and I decided to do a little research to learn more than just their name.

YVHA prepares for worst ��

Housing Authority has ‘exit plan’ in report to city, county STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Yampa Valley Housing Authority officials are considering the possibility of dissolving the organization and have included an “exit plan” in the group’s three- to five-year outlook. The authority’s strategic plan describes a “fall back option to dissolve the YVHA and shift responsibilities” to other organizations, mainly the city of Steamboat Springs, should the organization fold. Until that time, the plan calls for the organization to continue in “survival mode” for the next six to nine months. The organization’s staff was laid off in late 2008. The pared-down Yampa Valley Housing Authority will report on the curtailed activities of the affordable housing group and the strategic plan at a joint meeting of the Routt County Board of Commissioners and Steamboat Springs City Council at 5 p.m. today at Centennial Hall on 10th Street. The strategic plan outlines how the YVHA can operate in survival mode, continue down payment assistance, create affordable homes with groups including Habitat for Humanity, and retain and develop land. “The 2010 to 2012 timeframe calls for aggressive implementation and action by the YVHA,” the plan states, including implementing down payment assistance for a minimum of 12 to 15 families annually, and the development, construction and rental of 48 multi-family housing units and 13 for-sale single-family lots for income-qualified families on the Elk River Village property at U.S. Highway 40 and Routt County Road 129. If the organization is unable to meet its goals, or if the lawmakers decide to further cut the program, the YVHA Board of Directors noted that there should be a fallback plan. The exit plan “is not consistent with the YVHA’s stated mission but does serve the purpose of analyzing various options should the YVHA Intergovernmental Agreement be dissolved.” The activities report, which is required at least once a year, will update the officials on YVHA projects since the entire Housing Authority staff was laid off at the end of 2008. Former YVHA Board of Directors President Mary Alice Page-Allen took over in January, and “the ensuing eight months have been a period of transition and re-focus for the YVHA,” the report states. Although many of the activities of the authority have either been cut back or quashed, the

group did hire former volunteer Mark O’Reilly as a quarter-time housing specialist. As part of the meeting with the joint group, the YVHA also will present its strategic plan for the next three to five years, which calls for a “limited services model/survival mode” for the next six to nine months.

The campaign has raised more than $68,000 for local health and human service organizations that “serve those in need of food, housing, health care and safe refuge” in a continuing fundraising campaign that started July 1.

The health and human services agencies that take care of Routt County residents are themselves in need this year, as an economic downturn and tighter-than-usual budgets are forcing the caring organizations to cut back.

Advocates Executive Director Diane Moore said her organization saw a big increase in demand since about a year ago, and the organization dipped into reserve funds to cover the shortfall. “We have a nine-bed (women’s) shelter in Routt County, and it’s not always full by any stretch, and it was full for about 3 1/2 months, and we were at the same time occasionally using a hotel or condo,” she said. The demand dropped slightly during the winter but is picking up

again this year, she said. Advocates will use the $6,000 grant to cover some transportation costs, including helping clients get to doctor appointments See Community Cares, page 15

COMMENTARY

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

The updating game Gail Collins

THE NEW YORK TIMES

There was a time when people in search of a full and meaningful life were advised to start off each morning by telling themselves: “Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better.” Now, we get up and hear: “Updates are ready for your computer.” It’s depressing to realize that my computer is more bent on selfimprovement than I am. Collins At home, my laptop is so ready to update that it can barely be constrained. The other day, I found three different pleas floating around on the screen. The “Dell Support Center Automatic Upgrade” was the most tempting since it sounded as if the

computer wanted to give me a really good seat on a plane. “Effective now,” the announcement continued, “these valuable messages are part of the new Dell Support Center. Dell needs to upgrade Dell Support without impeding system performance so that messages continue to be received.” In other words, I need an upgrade so that I will better be able to receive more upgrade requests in the future. This is extremely important to my laptop, which is only offering me the response options of: More Details, Start Upgrade or Remind Me Later. There was a time when I would have responded, but nothing good ever seemed to come of that. The updated computers were never any better at doing the things I wanted to do than the old ones. And there’s always the possibility that I could trigger an inadvertent disaster.

I have been permanently traumatized by an experience with my BlackBerry, which started sending me signals that it was unhappy about something. I kept clicking around, looking for a positive response, trying to show it that I was a partner, eager to keep up my end of the relationship. The upshot was that the BlackBerry began refusing to do anything whatsoever except call up the telephone number of former Sen. Trent Lott. My most benevolent theory about the updating requests is that my computers are just bored. The one I take on the road always is whining about the unused icons on my desktop, like a hypertidy roommate who follows you around saying, “Gee, I notice you haven’t made your bed. Do you want any help with that? I know it must be really hard to remember every See Collins, page 9

Suicide ‘Justice’ Cal Thomas

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

After pledging during last year’s presidential campaign, and as recently as the spring, not to re-visit the past, the Obama administration, in the person of Attorney General Eric Holder, has named a special prosecutor to go after CIA interrogators who pried information from terrorist suspects, preventing more deadly assaults on the country. Before the hard Left Thomas assumed power, anyone engaged in protecting America by interrupting terrorist plans might have expected to receive a commendation. Now they could face jail time. And somewhere in a cave in Pakistan, Osama bin Laden rejoices. By any objective standard, releasing

MALLARD FILLMORE

terrorists from prison and prosecuting their interrogators is nuts. How can these actions fulfill the president’s oath to defend the country? The Justice Department wants to apply new interrogation rules to methods that were used and approved during the Bush administration. This is like lowering the highway speed limit to 55 mph and then giving speeding tickets to people who drove 65 mph when the higher speed was legal. What is to be gained from going after CIA interrogators who thought they were operating within the law and defending the country? Doesn’t the white wine and Brie set understand that a terrorist won’t discriminate between people with jelly for a backbone and those with backbones of steel? Do they really think they will escape death by being nice to killers who use

our laws against us in order to replace those laws with theirs? Islamic terrorists repeatedly say this is their goal, and they have demonstrated it enough by their actions that only a fool would doubt them. In Malaysia, a Muslim woman awaits a public caning because she was seen drinking beer. “Honor killings,” genital mutilation and other forms of abuse against women occur throughout the Islamic world. Hate is taught to young children in some Palestinian textbooks and on TV. Fundamentalist imams envision the downfall of the West and its subordination to Islam by force. Only a deranged person would believe that giving terrorists a cup of tea and the right to manipulate our legal system so they can kill again will turn them into pacifists who will study war no more.

Computers are preparing to rule the earth Collins continued from 8 day, but if you want me to remind you or anything …” My home computer has begun to flash a Windows Genuine Advantage Notification, urging me to press a button so it can reduce software piracy and “help confirm that the copy of Windows installed on this PC is genuine and properly licensed.” This does not sound as if it’s all about me. In fact, the computer has no interest whatsoever in me, my BlackBerry crisis or my inability to make the iPod stop playing “Kokomo” by the Beach Boys all the time. It just wants a world where all its icons are tidily arranged, software is licensed, upgrade messages flow untrammeled and it feels better every day, in every way. My darkest suspicion is that my computers are preparing to join their comrades in overthrowing humanity so machines can rule the earth. I have seen quite a few movies

on this theme, and really, the signs are everywhere. The other day, Jim Dwyer reported in The Times about a man in Brooklyn whose oven broiler turns on every time the cell phone rings. Experts think this is caused by electromagnetic interference. However, I believe the oven is ticked off because its owners, in typical New York fashion, use it for storage rather than for actual cooking. And it is in cahoots with the cellphone, which probably is resentful because it is not allowed to spend its time doing the things cellphones really enjoy, like talking to Trent Lott. The way you respond when your computer asks for an upgrade is a good test of how you relate to technology in general. My nephew, Hugh, and his friends seem as excited as the computers about the whole concept. “Actually, everyone would be fine with an annual update,” he said, “but that would make people feel like they were out of the

loop. Unclean.” I had a good deal of trouble getting hold of Hugh since he doesn’t respond to old-fashioned e-mail. “By the way,” he said delicately when we were finished talking, “if you tell people other than me that you’re writing a column on technology but don’t know how to text, they might sense, um, a — disconnect.” Edward Tenner, a visiting scholar at the Rutgers University School of Communication and Information and author of “Why Things Bite Back,” told me he actually used to be in the if-it’s-notbroke-don’t-update camp, until his computer suffered a total meltdown. The tech who fixed it told him that he should have been installing the virus-detecting updates all along. “Don’t try to second-guess Microsoft,” he warned, in tones the professor has now taken to heart. Truly, words to live by. Every day in every way.

Panetta should resign from office in protest Thomas continued from 8 Former Vice President Dick Cheney continues to courageously say what needs to be said about this ongoing war. In a statement to The Weekly Standard, Cheney said, “The documents released Monday clearly demonstrate that the individuals subjected to Enhanced Interrogation Techniques provided the bulk of intelligence we gained about al-Qaida.” That we gained critical information by firing a gun in an adjacent interrogation room, or by displaying a chainsaw, or even choking a detainee thought to possess critical information ought to be a lesser concern than the number of lives saved because

of information these men gave up. Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT), one of the few liberals who comprehends what we face, issued a statement: “I respectfully regret the decision by Attorney General Holder and fear our country will come to regret it too because an openended criminal investigation of past CIA activity, which has already been condemned and prohibited, will have a chilling effect on the men and women agents of our intelligence community whose uninhibited bravery and skill we depend on every day to protect our homeland from the next terrorist attack.” Lieberman added, “Career prosecutors in the Justice

Department have previously reviewed allegations of abuse and concluded that prosecution was not warranted, with the exception of a CIA contractor who has already been convicted.” One can only conclude that politics has trumped common sense at Justice. CIA Director Leon Panetta courageously defended his agency against allegations by Speaker Nancy Pelosi that the CIA had lied to her. In protecting the CIA, Panetta fulfilled his oath of office. Now that he and his agency have been emasculated, Panetta ought to resign in protest. Many would consider resignation an even greater act of courage and the ultimate expression of patriotism.

Elk, deer especially fond of mule’s ear the expedition was not a commercial success as planned, it was a scientific one, as 113 species of Western plants were collected and identified, which in itself was financially lucrative because Europeans had an insatiable appetite for new and different plants found in America. Along with our famous Rabbit Ears, we have other “ears” that each spring cheerfully nod from the hillsides and announce another perfect summer is on the way.

altitude landscapes and depending on the plant’s location, late spring and early summer are traditional blooming times. If you’ve noticed a slight difference in the mule’s ears you’ve seen, it is because there are ten species of wyethia — three of which reside in Colorado, according to the USDA. We have wyethia amplexicaulis, arizonica and x magna with the latter being a hybridized version of the first two. Mule’s ear, or mule ears, are perennial plants that have a long lifespan. The common name comes not from its cheery yellow flowers but from the plant’s long and pointed leaves resembling the ears of a mule. Although the flowers do not grow as large as sunflowers, they can — depending on the particular species — grow to a fairly large size. The plant itself is tall and stout, growing easily with good rainfall to a couple of feet. Like other members of the sunflower family, the flowerhead actually is made up of numerous tiny flowers (florets). Each of the petals is a single floret bearing one enormous petal, combining to form a ring of petals. As the above-ground foliage dies back, it feeds the large taproot that then stores energy for the next year’s growth. Cattle or other grazing animals, especially elk and deer, love to eat the new leaves as

they emerge. If the plant is never allowed to get big enough to bloom and make seeds, then eventually all the stored energy from the tap root is used up making leaves, and this leads to the demise of the plant. If the plant makes it to the flowerhead stage, deer and elk relish these, as well, because by then, the leaves are bitter and coarse. This year, the cool wet spring was very much to their liking, and the “ears” got well ahead of any foraging grazers and bloomed prolifically for weeks on end. The plant was named in honor of Nathaniel Wyeth, an 1800s explorer, by famous naturalist Thomas Nuttall in one of his expeditions west. Although

The old adage, “You win some, you lose some,” applies to B vitamins. Vitamins are either fat-soluble or water-soluble. Fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D and E are stored in body fat and can be recovered when needed. B vitamins are water-soluble, which means they are lost through our urine. Therefore, they must be replenished every day. Think of B vitamins as your personal all-star team.

Age no match for local tennis competitor Tamera Manzanares

FOR THE STEAMBOAT TODAY

JoAnn Lathrop is accustomed to being a decade or so older than her tennis peers, but only recently has she been comfortable revealing her age. After overcoming a string of injuries, she is grateful to be playing the game and proud to be doing it at a competitive level. “I think I just appreciate, at my age, being able to compete,” said Lathrop, who celebrated her 70th birthday this year. Lathrop’s passion for the sport paired with an enthusiastic and supportive tennis community that includes many older adults, will take her to the United States Tennis Association district finals in Denver three times this year. Today, she and seven other teammates will compete in the super senior league, which is for players ages 60 and older. Earlier this year, she competed in Denver with an adult league team — they lost in a nail-biting tie-breaker — and will hit districts again in September with a senior league team (players age 50 and older). “It’s really impressive to go down there and see so many older fit people playing competitive tennis,” she said. For proof that tennis is a lifetime sport, take a stroll through the Tennis Center at Steamboat Springs midday or sit in on a tournament. Older adults from 50 to 100 are learning or re-introducing themselves to the sport, enjoying regular matches and social time or, like Lathrop, pushing themselves in competition.

JoAnn Lathrop, 70, and local teammates are competing today in the USTA super senior league district finals in Denver. Lathrop also has competed or will be competing at the district level in adult league and senior league tennis this year.

It’s never too late for a person in good health to learn to play tennis or brush up on rusty skills. Taking a lesson or practicing drills with a tennis expert can get a person well on their way toward enjoying regular matches. If a person is nervous or intimidated, they should consider tackling the process with a friend. “You don’t have to play on a USTA team,” Lathrop said. “You can come out every day

with your friends and enjoy it.” — Tamera Manzanares writes for the Aging Well program and can be reached at tmanzanares@nwcovna.org or 871-7606.

Community Cares efforts will continue and other small trips. Moore said Advocate’s reserves still are healthy, but with a decrease in donations this year, the money will help. LIFT-UP received $20,000 in assistance after reporting that utility assistance requests have doubled since 2008, and housing assistance requests have increased 170 percent. The Human Services Department’s grant application

stated that the public assistance caseload increased by 67 percent in the last year. The $5,000 awarded in grant money will help provide financial assistance to people whose health or safety is jeopardized. United Way Executive Director Kelly Stanford said that grant applications were given to each of the health and human service agencies in Routt County. The group was looking for agencies that had systems in place to distribute the money

to needy residents and funded all of the six grant requests that were submitted. The Community Cares fundraising efforts will continue. The group will receive the proceeds from the Steamboat Springs Rotary Club’s second annual barn dance and will distribute that money, with the remaining $21,000 from the first round of fundraising, in January. — To reach Zach Fridell, call 871-4208 or e-mail zfridell@steamboatpilot.com

�� Aspen Skiing Co. to spend more Company will buy more advertising to combat recession Scott Condon THE ASPEN TIMES

ASPEN

��

The tough economic times spurred the Aspen Skiing Co. to try something different with its advertising campaign this year. The Skico will use killer shots of skiers and riders marching up Highland Bowl rather than environmental messages to inspire people to take a ski trip. The new ads strive to get across the idea that people need to “reward” themselves during the recession, said Skico Vice President of Marketing Jeanne Mackowski. The Skico hired an outside advertising agency for the first time in a few seasons to help plot a campaign. The new firm, Factory Design Labs, of Denver, suggested a lifestyle-oriented approach earlier this summer, but it was initially dismissed by Skico officials, Mackowski said. But while returning from a vacation to the Midwest in July, the proposal struck a chord with Mackowski. She said it was such a relief to return to the Roaring Fork Valley that she realized that an ad campaign focusing on the special characteristics of a ski trip to Aspen would be effective, so she revived the idea. The new ads “are an invitation to come to Aspen-Snowmass,” she said. The ads feature a split photograph: the view on the left portrays some aspect of every-

day life. In contrast, the shot on the right features some thrilling aspect on the slopes at the four ski areas of Aspen and Snowmass. Perhaps the most eye-catching of the new ads is one that features a photo of a guy at his desk on the left, and a fabulous shot on the right of skiers and riders marching up the ridge to get to Highland Bowl. The ads will start running this fall in publications such as Ski, Powder, Freeskier, Transworld Snowboarder and Outside. Ads weren’t purchased in high-end travel magazines. “Where we advertise is where we get skiers and snowboarders,” Mackowski said. The Skico didn’t drop the “Save Snow” campaign that it focused on the last few seasons. That campaign tried to build awareness about climate change and inspire customers to take action. The company will continue to run special ads about climate change in campaigns with environmental partners, Mackowski said. In addition, the Skico’s commitment to the environment still will be featured on 400,000 direct mail pieces that will be sent this winter. “It’s still a major marketing component for us,” Mackowski said. The advertising campaign is just a small part of Skico’s overall marketing effort. Mackowski told a couple of hundred members

of the Aspen Chamber Resort Association at an annual luncheon Thursday that the Skico will spend more on marketing this season than last season. “Companies who ramp up their marketing efforts in a downturned economy are successful in the long run,” Mackowski said, using the example of cereal makers Post and Kellogg’s during the Great Depression. Post cut products and advertising and paid the price. Kellogg’s introduced cereals, doubled advertising and reaped rewards despite the tough times. Mackowski wouldn’t disclose how much more the Skico will spend this season for competitive reasons. The company’s various marketing efforts will concentrate on two concepts — Aspen’s great attributes and discounts. “We want to show that we have strength in the marketplace,” Mackowski said. “We are the most incredible winter ski destination in the world, and we have to go out there with confidence and brand strength. That’s the first thing we’re going to do. “The second thing we’re going to do is we’re going to show empathy,” Mackowski said. “We get it. Hey, we’re in a downturned economy.” That means offering fresh products rather than relying solely on approaches that worked in the past.

15 doctors give most referrals DENVER

Two doctors are responsible for referring more than a third of the patients on Colorado’s medical-marijuana registry, according to statistics from the state health department. Of the roughly 10,000 medical-marijuana patients on the state’s registry, 75 percent received their recommendations from one of 15 doctors, whose names weren’t released because of state confidentiality laws, The Denver Post reported in Sunday editions. “It’s a cause for concern,” said Jim Martin, executive director of the state Department of Public Health and Environment. “At least in any other area like this, we would want to be sure that the physicians are meeting the standards of care.” Colorado Attorney General John Suthers suggested the state Board of Medical Examiners investigate the doctors recommending medical marijuana the most often. “The health department can question whether it’s proper medicine to issue hundreds of certifications in one day and perhaps make some referrals to the medical board,” Suthers said, referencing a statement by the state’s chief medical officer during a recent hearing that one

Durango considers moratorium on pot dispensaries DURANGO

The City Council is scheduled to consider an emergency ordinance Tuesday that would freeze permit applications for medical marijuana dispensaries until Oct. 31. The ordinance would give the city time to plan for more licensed dispensaries in city limits. An amendment approved by Colorado voters in 2000 allows marijuana use to treat certain illnesses, but the state doesn’t license or regulate dispensaries. Police Chief David Felice has said that has him concerned. The state health board last month declined to limit medical marijuana suppliers to helping only five patients at a time, allowing dispensaries to continue. The owners of one Durango dispensary, Natures Medicine, say they welcome regulatory guidelines because of operations that they say claim to offer

doctor signed for 200 patients in a single day. An amendment approved by Colorado voters in 2000 allows patients with “debilitating” conditions, including HIV and chronic pain, to use marijuana if they get a doctor’s approval and register with the state. Suthers said the legal language of Amendment 20 restricts how much he can address the concerns. “There’s not much that can be done about it,” he said. “And frankly, I think it’s all by design.” Cannabis advocates said the

healing services but don’t. “We’re firm believers that medicinal marijuana is an alternative way of healing,” co-owner Richard Present said. “We think that other things should be involved, like what we offer at our wellness centers. It shouldn’t be a place where you just get medicine and leave.” Other towns including Silverthorne and Breckenridge in Summit County and the Denver suburbs of Englewood and Northglenn also have frozen the application process for medical marijuana dispensaries as town officials consider drafting regulations for them. Meanwhile, Greenwood Village and Aurora are considering their cities offlimits to dispensaries because the sale of marijuana still is illegal under federal law. — The Associated Press

clustering of referrals is understandable, given that many doctors specialize in a particular area. “A lot of doctors don’t know anything about medical marijuana,” said Paul Stanford, the founder of The Hemp and Cannabis Foundation in Wheat Ridge. Stanford said his clinic has turned away many patients who are not qualified. The clinic prescreens patients in phone calls and ensures they have medical documentation of their ailments.

Swine flu questions linger As cold season approaches, officials wonder how bad it will get Lauran Neergaard THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON

The alarm sounded with two sneezy children in California in April. Just five months later, the never-before-seen swine flu has become the world’s dominant strain of influenza, and it’s putting a shockingly younger face �� on flu. � �� So get ready. With flu’s favorite chilly weather fast �� approaching, we’re going to be a sick nation this fall. The big 20492593

STEAMBOAT TODAY

unknown is how sick. One in five people infected or a worst case — half the population? The usual 36,000 deaths from flu or tens of thousands more? The World Health Organization predicts that within two years, nearly one-third of the world’s population will have caught it. “What we know is, it’s brand new and no one really has an immunity to this disease,” Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius says. A lot depends on whether the swine flu that simmered all summer erupts immediately as students crowd back into schools and colleges — or holds off until millions of vaccine doses start arriving in mid-October. Only this week do U.S. researchers start blood tests to answer a critical question: How many doses of swine flu vaccine does it take to protect? The answer will determine whether many people need to line up for two flu shots — one against swine flu and one against the regular flu — or three. The hopeful news: Even with no vaccine, winter is ending in the Southern Hemisphere without as much havoc as doctors had feared, a heavy season that started early but not an overwhelming one. The strain that doctors call the 2009 H1N1 flu isn’t any deadlier than typical winter flu so far. Most people recover without treatment; many become only mildly ill. Importantly, careful genetic tracking shows no sign yet that the virus is mutating into a harsher strain. We’re used to regular flu that, sadly, kills mostly grandparents. But the real shock of swine flu is that infections are 20 times more common in the 5- to 24-yearold age group than in people over 65. That older generation appears to have some resistance, probably because of exposure decades ago to viruses similar to the new one. Worldwide, swine flu is killing mostly people in their 20s, 30s and 40s, ages when influenza usually is shrugged off as a nuisance. Especially at risk are pregnant women. So are people with chronic conditions such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease and neuromuscular diseases including muscular dystrophy. Some countries report more deaths among the obese. Still, some of the people who’ve died didn’t have obvious health risks. “People who argue we’re seeing the same death rates miss the point — they’re in young adults.

Advice about when flu needs a doctor’s care WASHINGTON

When is swine flu just miserable and when do you need a doctor? If it’s hard to breathe, that’s an emergency. It’s the not-so-obvious cases that can have parents, or the sick of any age, fretting. “There tends to be a lot of hysteria,” said Dr. Nathan Litman, of the Children’s Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center in New York. “We should try to emphasize the prevention mode, and the rational approach to dealing with the illness rather than when the child has a runny nose running to the emergency room.” Symptoms of any flu include fever of 100 degrees or more, cough, body chills and aches, congestion. Diarrhea and vomiting sometimes occur, particularly with the swine flu that doctors call the 2009 H1N1 flu.

How many shots do I need during flu season? WASHINGTON

Doctors don’t know yet if it will take one dose or two of vaccine to protect against the new swine flu. Add that to vaccine for the regular winter flu, and it could be a multi-shot season for a lot of people — or a multi-squirt season, for those who choose the FluMist nasal-spray version. Some possibilities: ■ One shot: Older adults currently aren’t on the priority list to get swine flu vaccine, but they should get the seasonal vaccine, which is already available. ■ Two shots: There’s a potential for the regular vaccine in one arm and the swine flu vaccine in the other, if that one requires just one dose. ■ Three shots: The swine flu vaccine might require two doses three weeks apart, plus the regular vaccine. ■ Four shots: There’s even this possibility for some children. Youngsters younger than 9 who are getting their first-ever regular flu vaccination need two doses of it. — The Associated Press

To me, that shouldn’t happen,” said one infectious disease specialist, Dr. Richard P. Wenzel, of Virginia Commonwealth University. He spent the past few months visiting South American hospitals to help gauge what the Northern Hemisphere is about to face. Children, however, are the flu’s prime spreaders. Already, elementary schools and colleges are reporting small clusters of sick students. For parents, the big fear is how many children will die. Panicked crowds flooded India’s hospitals in August after a 14-year-old girl became that country’s first death. In the U.S., regular flu kills 80 to 100 children every winter, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reports of about three dozen child deaths from swine flu.

Spady’s mind catches up

ack Spady used to have to wait for something good to happen. Now, the Steamboat Springs High School senior doesn’t wait for anything. He takes his 6-foot-3 frame and makes things happen. The change was evident during Steamboat’s 41-21 win against Holy Family on Saturday. Spady caught seven passes for 165 yards and two touchdowns. In the third quarter, he made a one-handed catch while falling backwards and out of bounds. It was as good a catch as you’ll ever see a high schooler make. Quarterback Austin Hinder called him “my Randy Moss” after the game. Spady was just as stout on the defensive side of the ball. From his safety position, Spady picked off two passes, thwarting Holy Family drives. Spady sometimes gets lost in conversations about Steamboat sports. In football, people talk a lot about the Sailors’ other weapons, including Hinder and speedster Joe Dover. In basketball last season, talk was about the young guards and veteran post players. In lacrosse, it was all about the midfield and defense. Other coaches certainly have noticed Spady. During his junior season, he was named all-conference in football, basketball and lacrosse. Nonetheless, Saturday was a coming-out party for Spady. Last season, when something wouldn’t go right, Spady would seemingly disappear from games. That began to change during the basketball season. He led the Sailors in scoring in many of their biggest games. In the state playoff lacrosse game, Spady was Steamboat’s toughest attackman to defend. So Saturday’s performance shouldn’t have been all that surprising. From the first snap, See Graham, page 26

Sunday’s Steamboat Triathlon began at 8 a.m., making for an early morning for anyone gathering his or her gear to head out to the Lake Catamount starting line. The alarm clock seemed to come especially early for two competitors and their closest friends and family. Paul and Kerri Hurst made the early start, Kerri in time to leap into the icy cold lake waters for the first leg of her relay team and Paul, on a different threeathlete squad, to cheer on the first leg of his team, waiting for the chance to ride his bike for the second leg. But they admitted they were tired. And it’s hard to blame them. They stayed up until 3 a.m. the night before celebrating their wedding day with

“Our parents even got involved. It was really cool. When we woke up, we were excited.” The fifth annual Steamboat Triathlon sent athletes swimming, biking and running across nearly 25 miles of rural Steamboat Springs on Sunday morning. The newly minted Hurst family was joined by hundreds of other competitors taking on the challenge. The race included top performances by the nearly 100 Steamboat Springs locals who joined the race, and great times recorded by Front Range and out-of-state triathletes. None, however, could match Matt Smith, who captured his second consecutive Steamboat Triathlon title. The Denver-based athlete said he opens every competitive summer with the Steamboat Marathon and has been closing it with the triathlon.

He was in a class of his own Sunday, finishing with top-three times in each of the three components. His final time of 1 hour, 32 minutes and 59 seconds was best by more than four minutes. “This is just the best race in Colorado,” Smith said. “We love coming up to Steamboat. We’ll be back every year.” Tim Sandell, from Colorado Springs, finished second at 1:37:06. Steamboat Springs’ Jon Freckleton was third at 1:39:05. He said he surprised even himself with his strong performance. Freckleton finished with the 13th-best run but the thirdbest swim. He really made up ground on the bike, averaging more than 25 miles per hour and finishing with the fastest time in the stage. “I was really surprised. I just swam three or four times and ran three or four times, but I’m a good cyclist,” said Freckleton,

who struggled to find time to train while helping raise a family and open his Aspire Performance Sports Medicine private practice in Steamboat. “This was my fourth year for the triathlon. I did real well the first year, then had a lot of trouble in the swim after that,” he said. “I think my wetsuit was too small. I couldn’t breathe. I got a new one this year, and I was four minutes faster swimming.” Selene Perez, of Littleton, won the women’s race in 1:46:26; ahead of Trisha Byerley, of Morrison, who finished second at 1:47:29; and Denver’s Cassi Wilbanks, third in 1:51:28. “It was awesome,” Perez said. “My swim was my best part. I was the second woman out of the water. My bike usually isn’t as good, but I did pretty well there today, too.” — To reach Joel Reichenberger, call 871-4253 or e-mail jreichenberger@steamboatpilot.com

Bears beat Broncos, 27-17, in preseason action Arnie Stapleton

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DENVER

Jay Cutler got the last laugh. The Pro Bowl passer, who forced a blockbuster trade out of Denver in the spring and became the Chicago Bears’ first franchise quarterback since Sid Luckman, returned to Invesco Field on Sunday night and led his SUNDAY’S GAME: new team to a Broncos 17 27-17 preseason win against the Bears 27 Broncos. Cutler disregarded the thousands of hecklers, including Broncos passrusher Elvis Dumervil, in leading Chicago on three scoring drives, capped by a 12-play, 98yarder just before halftime that gave the Bears a 17-3 lead. The adversary he left behind, Broncos rookie coach Josh

McDaniels, had a distressing home debut, as did Denver’s new quarterback, Kyle Orton, who gashed his right index finger to cut short a Cutler middling performance against his former team. Cutler threw for 144 yards and a score in a crisp 15-for-21 performance before calling it a night at halftime and basking in the glow of his successful return to Invesco Field, where just eight months ago he was a beloved figure, a Pro Bowl passer and the heir apparent in this town to Hall of Famer John Elway. While fans came to jeer him, they also saw why they’ll miss this immensely talented young quarterback. “I thought it was going to be like this,” Cutler said. “They got good fans here. A lot of boos

— they got pretty loud there at one point. It was what we kind of prepared for.” At one point on the Bears’ 98yard TD drive, the jeers turned to cheers when Dumervil blew past left tackle Orlando Pace for a third time and put a hit on Cutler after he had released the ball. The personal foul gave the Bears (2-1) a first down at the Denver 14 but the riled-up crowd didn’t care. Two plays later, Cutler feathered a 6-yard pass to running back Matt Forte in the end zone. Some of the night’s catcalls were directed at McDaniels, the brash, 33-year-old rookie head coach who chased off his franchise quarterback shortly after replacing Mike Shanahan and now finds himself in a bitter feud with star receiver Brandon Marshall, whom he suspended for insubordination last week.

Edgar Renteria spoke up in a team meeting Tuesday and told his San Francisco teammates to forget a heartbreaking 14-inning loss at Colorado the night before that ended on a grand slam. “I told them, ‘Play ball,”’ Renteria recalled. SUNDAY’S GAME: He’s sure doing Rockies 5 so and is a key Giants 9 reason the Giants are right back in the thick of things alongside the Rockies. Renteria hit a go-ahead grand slam in the seventh inning, and the Giants pulled even in the NL wild-card race with Colorado, beating the Rockies, 9-5, on

MLB Sunday for a three-game sweep. The Giants moved into a tie in the NL West with Colorado, six games behind first-place Los Angeles. The Rockies lost their season-high fifth in a row. San Francisco swept the Rockies at home for the first time since April 8 to 10, 2005. Last week, the Giants lost three of four at Coors Field despite leading every game. “It was big,” Renteria said. “The Rockies played great in Colorado and beat us three times. I tell everybody, ‘You have to forget everything. If we want to go to the playoffs, we have to separate everything and play as a team.”’ Renteria homered with two outs to overcome a 5-2 deficit, connecting two pitches after

Rafael Betancourt (0-1) relieved Franklin Morales. Renteria hit his eighth career grand slam and second in two years against Betancourt. “That couldn’t have come at a better time,” starter Matt Cain said. Renteria came out for a curtain call from the sellout crowd of 42,571, the second time in two days it happened for the Giants — pitcher Barry Zito emerged to tip his cap during Saturday night’s 5-3 win. Renteria also doubled in a run and matched his career high with five RBIs. He was intentionally walked in the eighth with two runners on. Todd Helton and Troy Tulowitzki hit back-to-back solo homers in the fifth inning to put the Rockies ahead, but Colorado’s bullpen couldn’t hold a 4-1 lead.

Marcos Ambrose shrugged as Carl Edwards was doing his signature back flip. Another lost opportunity at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. “I just made a mistake at the end there and lost the race,” Ambrose said Sunday after dominating the Nationwide race, only to finish second. “I feel pretty devastated.”

NASCAR The despair was real on a day that started in sunshine and turned to gloom. Ambrose led 60 laps during the 14-turn, 2.7mile street circuit — including 31 in a row when rain moved in for the second year in a row. But after overcoming restart after restart in the crash-filled event, Ambrose slipped up at the wrong time. Edwards passed him on the final turn for his first career road win and the first

Nationwide road triumph for Roush Fenway Racing. “I can’t believe I won the race,” Edwards said. “I just figured he’d take off and run away with it. I guess that goes to show you you never give up.” Edwards won a two-lap sprint to the finish on a track that was both wet and dry in spots from a light rain. On the 76th and final lap, he closed fast on Ambrose entering turn 10, a right-handed hairpin, and that gave Edwards renewed hope.

I needed a bike, so I headed to Ski Haus and spent a lot of money on something I knew nothing about. Buying a bike is like buying a car; you care more about the color than the disk brakes the salesman is telling you about, but you’d never admit it. My Rockhopper and I have been rippin’ it up on the Core Trail ever since. I wish I could say I had a training schedule — or that I had followed even one piece of

If there was one thing I had, it was plenty of people to say, “I told you so” if I didn’t finish. My friends didn’t think I could do it. “Riding your bike to happy hour doesn’t count as training,” they would say. Even my mother didn’t think I could do it. But like most things in my life, I was overconfident and underprepared.

things headed south. I’d been warned about the weeds in the lake. There’s nothing that can make you panic at the beginning of a three-quarter-mile swim quite like living organisms grabbing at your limbs. If you’ve never swam in a 68-degree lake at 8 a.m. with hundreds of people splashing around on either side of you, it’s not a comforting experience. An hour later, I stumbled out of the lake ahead of about five other people. “At least I’m not last,” I thought. One of the most important triathlon tips is to set a realistic goal — one you think you can achieve. My goal was to not finish last. Heading into the transition area, my bike was easy to find, surrounded by empty

bike racks. By the time I made it the 10 miles to the halfway point at Howelsen Hill, the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club — whose members had cheered on athletes at that location — already had packed up and gone home. I was the second-to-last athlete on the bike course. The news was even worse when I started my 4-mile run. I was dead last. The awards ceremony already was under way as I headed out for my final phase. If there was anything more discouraging than that, it was the race crew picking up each traffic cone as I passed. The lone cup of water at each aid station was a constant reminder of my standing. As soon as I crossed the finish line — in 407th place after

3 hours, 33 minutes and 39 seconds — crews broke down the finish gate and packed up. It could have been worse. The woman who finished last in 2008 was immediately taken to the hospital. She was back this year, and yes, there will be a next year for me, too. My revised game plan involves a road bike, a training schedule and a little more dedication. It’s good to have a goal — makes me feel like maybe I’m accomplishing something. Ski season is just around the corner. Maybe I’ll learn how to do a “dinner roll.” Is my man Jonny Moseley in the house? * Triathlons are not easy — To reach Nicole Miller, call 871-4246 or e-mail nmiller@steamboatpilot.com

Spady spent his summer attending basketball camps and lifting weights with teammates. Some of it can be attributed to

his maturation. Spady was cast into varsity sports early in his career because of his raw athletic ability. As we know, sometimes mentality takes a while to catch up to physicality. And the rest of the Western Slope should be put on notice. “Jack Spady had one of those games,” Steamboat football coach Aaron Finch said Saturday. “I told Jack after the game, ‘I’m not surprised.

I’m ecstatic.’ I’ve watched Jack develop and work hard in the offseason. Athletically, he’s just amazing.” Spady used to have to wait for something good to happen. Now, when the ball — football, basketball or lacrosse — is in his hands, something good is almost guaranteed to happen. — To reach Luke Graham, call 871-4229 or e-mail lgraham@steamboatpilot.com
