When Lawrence Chiles wanted to buy an identity, it cost him $200 on a corner in East Los Angeles, he said in Routt County Court on Friday. Chiles, who had served 87 days in Routt County Jail, pleaded guilty to a Class 1 misdemeanor and was released with no additional fines or jail time in this case, though he faces additional charges in California.

“Any kind of ID, any state,” can be purchased on the corners, Chiles said. Chiles used the personal information he bought to open store accounts at home improvement stores in California to charge several large purchases. Chiles said Friday that he thought the identity belonged to someone who had died. The identity actually belongs to Steamboat Springs resident Chris Wening. Chiles pleaded guilty to unauthorized use of a transaction device, a Class 1 misdemeanor

punishable by six to 18 months in jail and $500 to $5,000 in fines. But according to the plea agreement, Chiles, 66, will not serve any additional time because of his failing health and more pending charges in California. Chiles reportedly was kept in Yampa Valley Medical Center on Saturday night because of an unspecified medical problem. He appeared in court in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank. Routt County Public Defender Sheryl Uhlmann said Chiles faces probation revocation in a

felony case in California and possibly more jail time. Chiles was scheduled to fly from Denver to California on Friday evening. Chiles used his chance to address the court during his sentencing to apologize to Chris Wening and his wife, Jamey Wening. “I would really like to apologize to you, sir,” Chiles said as he faced the Wenings. “You were supposed to be deceased; that’s what I was told.” See ID theft, page 14

Pedaling Posse Parade kicks off OktoberWest

eople piled into the parking lot at Howelsen Hill on Friday afternoon for the kickoff to Steamboat’s OktoberWest, the first Pedaling Posse Parade cruiser bike ride. At the end of the ride, the event proved a pretty popular excuse to party in Little Toots Park. In a world where bicyclists are willing to invest thousands of dollars to acquire the latest, greatest carbon fiber, fully suspended, lightest bikes possible, cruiser bikes are a phascinating phenomenon (Yeah, that’s pronounced with a soft “P”.) John and Amy Stonitsch have retired their mountain bikes and are in love with their Electra cruiser bikes. “We’ve been on these bikes every weekend for the last five years,” John said. “They make you happy. They make you comfortable.”

Tom Ross PILOT & TODAY

He grew up on Long Island, and in the winter he would put a hockey puck in his jacket pocket, sling his hockey stick through loops tied to the frame of his 10-speed and ride off to skate on a frozen pond. Amy’s Electra Hawaii model is a pink sensation tricked out in a Polynesian theme, right down to tire treads in the pattern of hibiscus blossoms. Rob Peterson had one of the coolest bikes at the parade, a 1971 Schwinn Stingray that is one year older than he is. A See Ross, page 12

Karen Van Scoyk arrived at the first Pedaling Posse Parade, part of OktoberWest festivities, on a sunflower bike she calls Jade. The cruiser bike parade drew 50 to 60 riders on classic and classic replica bikes for a slow ride down Howelsen Parkway to Yampa Street and Little Toots Park.

Routt County’s unemployment rate decreased in August, to 6 percent from 6.9 percent in July. But the rate is up from August 2008, when the county’s

unemployment stood at 3.2 percent. The numbers released this morning aren’t adjusted for normal seasonal changes. The county’s labor force increased between the two months, from 15,074 in July to 15,249 in August. Of that

number, 912 were unemployed in August. In July, 1,039 were unemployed. Statewide, Colorado’s unemployment rate decreased half a percent to 7.3 percent. Those figures are seasonally adjusted.

Steamboat hung on to a top-10 ranking this year in Ski Magazine’s poll of best North American ski resorts. Steamboat Ski Area slid in at No. 10, a two-spot slip from last year’s No. 8. The rankings come from a poll of Ski Magazine readers. The resort ranked No. 1 in family programs. “We’re always ecstatic to be recognized by our guests, which are basically the people who voted in the Ski Magazine survey,” said Loryn Kasten, a spokeswoman

City editor Mike Lawrence moderated the chat. The full, unedited transcript is available on www.steamboatpilot.com. PILOT & TODAY STAFF

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Moderator: My name is Mike Lawrence, and I’ll be moderating today’s chat with Danny Mulcahy, principal and project manager of the proposed Steamboat 700 annexation. … Danny, the first thing I’ll ask about is (Thursday night’s) Planning Commission meeting where Steamboat 700 received a recomMulcahy mendation to City Council. What’s your take on how the discussion went last night? Danny Mulcahy: I was impressed by their attention to detail. I thought they all had a good grasp of the facts. It was

a lot of information, and they studied it for more then a year. Moderator: Concerns about Steamboat 700 appear to be concentrated around the size of the project. Traffic impacts, housing impacts, infrastructure needs, etc. If City Council approves the annexation on second reading Oct. 13, what are short-term and long-term timelines for development? Mulcahy: Very good question. This is a very long-term development and even (planning commissioner) Sarah (Fox) last night pointed out it could very well take more than 20 years to build out, as most of the other annexations in the city have. Our shortterm goals are to start the design and engineering of the infrastructure and then, depending on the market conditions, start that infrastructure in 2011. Again, depending on market demands, we hope to start residential construction in 2012. Obviously, if there is not any demand within that time period, we will not start vertical construction. Fortunately, we have a variety of product types the market doesn’t

have, so we should have some opportunities from apartments to small lots to row houses to commercial. Long term, the development will be phased according to our infrastructure requirements and market conditions. Moderator: What was the biggest concern you heard from the Planning Commission last night? Mulcahy: Traffic concerns and the (13th Street) bottleneck in particular. Moderator: What’s your response to traffic concerns? Mulcahy: Traffic has been a problem for years and will continue to grow if the community doesn’t take action. Unfortunately, our growth policies have pushed more of our work force out of the city limits and forced them to drive into town. Without services, housing, recreations and transit solution in the west part of town, we force everyone through town. The only way to solve traffic is to actually deal with it and the best way to do that is to form partnerships.

Members of Steamboat Dance Theatre perform an African dance piece during the group’s 2007 concert. Auditions for the 38th annual Steamboat Dance Theatre concert are at 2 p.m. Sunday. Everyone who auditions will be put in the show, which is scheduled for Feb. 25 to 27.

Steamboat Dance Theatre holds open auditions for its 38th annual winter concert Sunday, and everyone who signs up to be in a piece will be cast in the show. “Really, this is just an open invitation to have people come and dance with us this year, and there’s no pressure at these auditions,” said Jenny Meier, co-producer for the concerts, which are scheduled for Feb. 25 to 27. “It’s a very relaxed, fun time where everybody gets to see what different dances are going to be in the show this year and try to see what different dances would be the best fit for them,” Meier said. Registration is at 2 p.m. Sunday at Northwest Ballet Studio on Oak Street. Auditions start at 3 p.m. A $20 annual membership fee to Steamboat Dance Theatre is required but dance experience is not.

There are more than a dozen pieces scheduled for the dance program, said artistic director Tiana Buschmann. Styles include African, belly, hip-hop, jazz, lyrical, Broadway jazz, contemporary, hula hoop, Irish step and modern dancing. “I personally have been challenging my choreographers to put a little bit of edge or a little bit of uniqueness into their choreography so that our show gets better and better every year,” Buschmann said. Buschmann, Meier and coproducer Kelly Erickson chose a variety of styles and skill levels to open up the annual concert — and the five months of working and bonding leading up to it — to as many people as possible, Meier said. Each piece rehearses for an hour once a week from October through the show at the end of February; there are more rehearsals in the “tech week” leading up to the concert.

COMMENTARY

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

Health care on the threshold Paul Krugman

THE NEW YORK TIMES

So Sen. Max Baucus, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, has released his “mark” on proposed legislation — which would normally be the basis for the bill that eventually emerges from his committee. And serious supporters of health care reform soon will face their long-dreaded moment of truth. You see, it has been clear for months that whatever health care bill Krugman finally emerges will fall far short of reformers’ hopes. Yet even a bad bill could be much better than nothing. The question is where to draw the line. How bad does a bill have to be to make it too bad to vote for? Now, the moment of truth isn’t here quite yet: There’s enough wrong with the Baucus proposal as it stands to

make it unworkable and unacceptable. But that said, Baucus’ mark is better than many of us expected. If it serves as a basis for negotiation, and if the result of those negotiations is a plan that’s stronger, not weaker, reformers are going to have to make some hard choices about the degree of disappointment they’re willing to live with. Of course, those who insist that we must have a single-payer system — Medicare for all — won’t accept any plan that tries, instead, to cajole and coerce private health insurers into covering everyone. But while many reformers, myself included, would prefer a single-payer system if we were starting from scratch, international experience shows that it’s not the only way to go. Several European countries, including Switzerland and the Netherlands, have managed to achieve universal coverage with a mainly private insurance system.

And right here in America, we have the example of the Massachusetts health reform, many of whose features are echoed in the Baucus plan. The Massachusetts system, introduced three years ago, has many problems. But as a new report from the Urban Institute puts it, it “has accomplished much of what it set out to do: Nearly all adults in the state have health insurance.” If we could accomplish the same thing for the nation as a whole, even with a less-thanideal plan, it would be a vast improvement compared to what we have now. So something along the general lines of the Baucus plan might be acceptable. But details matter. And the bad news is that the plan, as it stands, is inadequate or badly conceived in three major ways. First, it bungles the so-called “employer mandate.” Most reform plans include a provision requiring that large employers provide their workers with See Krugman, page 9

Obama’s critics and racial denial Clarence Page

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

People are asking, but President Barack Obama’s White House team denies that racism has anything to do with recent Tea Party rallies and other protests against his health care policies. That’s smart. The same approach worked in last year’s presidential campaign. In public, team Obama constantly said race didn’t matter, while in private they never forgot that it Page mattered a lot. Race still matters, though it’s not always easy to say how much. Why do some people think, for example, that the “9/12 Project” Tea Party protests on the Washington Mall were racially tinged? Maybe it was the sign that television networks photo-

MALLARD FILLMORE

graphed that said, as I remember the quote, “The zoo has an African lion; The US has a lyin’ African”? Other signs promoted the idea that Obama is not really a naturally born citizen or that maybe he should just die. But, in fairness, most of the signs weren’t like that. I’m sure most of the folks who showed up in the Mall didn’t have race first and foremost on their minds. Yet their efforts to appear racismfree seemed downright poignant at times. For example, somebody made the effort to produce some pre-printed signs that offered helpfully: “Not a race issue, not a party issue, just an old American freedom issue.” Dear sign carriers: I’m sure you mean well, but every time a black American of my generation hears someone say, “It’s not a race issue,” I immediately think, yup, it’s a race issue. The great success of the civil rights revolution was to illegalize discrimination under the law and make any sign

of racism a taboo in decent society. Yet as serious racism recedes, suspicions of racism rush in to fill the gap. People are afraid to talk about race for fear of offending someone or of being accused of “playing the race card.” Yet one of the by-products of having a black president, it seems, is the unexpected lesson some of the white people I know are receiving in how it feels to be black. Specifically, they are learning how it feels to hear that something is not a race issue when you plainly and clearly think that it is. For example, my column-writing colleague Maureen Dowd arched many eyebrows with this bit of mind-reading after Rep. Joe Wilson, a South Carolina Republican, rudely blurted out, “You lie!” during Obama’s health care address to Congress: “Wilson clearly did not like being lectured and even rebuked See Page, page 9 Bruce Tinsley

Can reformers accept the Baucus plan? tion in which it changes. It would be disastrous if health care goes the way of the economic stimulus plan earlier this year. As you may recall, that plan — which was clearly too weak even as originally proposed — was made even weaker to win the support of three Republican senators. If the same thing happens to health reform, progressives should and will walk away. But maybe things will go the other way, and Baucus (and the White House) will, for once, actually listen to progressive concerns, making the bill stronger. Even if the Baucus plan gets better, rather than worse, what emerges won’t be legislation reformers can love. Will it nonetheless be legislation that passes the threshold of acceptability, legislation they can vote for? We’ll see.

In the age of Obama, race still matters Page continued from 8 by the brainy black president presiding over the majestic chamber. ... Wilson’s shocking disrespect for the office of the president — no Democrat ever shouted ‘liar’ at W. when he was hawking a fake case for war in Iraq — convinced me: Some people just can’t believe a black man is president and will never accept it.” My response: Welcome to my world. Judging by the polls, about 15 percent or so of the country was in shock and even ran to their gun shops to stock up, according to news reports, when they heard Obama won. Some of them naturally show up at protests like the 9/12

march or buy “I’m with Joe Wilson” T-shirts. Yet on a more cheerful note, a scene you probably did not see on TV happened after the protests as the mostly white protesters wandered home through the nearby Black Family Reunion, an annual two-day street fair on the Mall. Although it sounds like a set-up for a zany Hollywood movie, everyone was civil and courteous. Some of the protesters mingled and bought some lunch. That’s the Washington way: Never let political differences get in the way of a good meal. In judging Obama’s performance, it would be wrong to make too much of the role played by race, though it would

be foolish to make too little of it. Team Obama came into office with a lot of defensive boasting about the big jobs they had to do with two wars, economic catastrophe and a broken health care system. How do you separate the racial backlash against him as the first black president from the political backlash against his being the first to take on so many problems on Day 1? Still, I am amused by the conservatives like Rush Limbaugh who insist that racism has absolutely nothing to do with Obama’s problems. Only a few months ago, they were blaming white guilt for his success. Folks, you can’t have it both ways.

health coverage or pay into a fund that would help workers who don’t get insurance through their job buy coverage on their own. Baucus, however, gets too clever, trying to tie each employer’s fees to the subsidies its own employees end up getting. That’s a terrible idea. As the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities points out, it would make companies reluctant to hire workers from lower-income families — and it would also create a bureaucratic nightmare. This provision has to go and be replaced with a simple pay-or-play rule. Second, the plan is too stingy when it comes to financial aid. Lower-middle-class families, in particular, would end up paying much more in premiums than they do with the Massachusetts plan, sug-

gesting that for many people insurance would not, in fact, be affordable. Fixing this means spending more than Baucus proposes. Third, the plan doesn’t create real competition in the insurance market. The right way to create competition is to offer a public option, a government-run insurance plan individuals can buy into as an alternative to private insurance. The Baucus plan instead proposes a fake alternative, nonprofit insurance cooperatives — and it places so many restrictions on these cooperatives that, according to the Congressional Budget Office, they “seem unlikely to establish a significant market presence in many areas of the country.” The insurance industry, of course, loves the Baucus plan. Need we say more? So this plan has to change. What matters now is the direc-

Large elk herd posing hazard along U.S. 40

Colorado State Patrol troopers are warning drivers that a large herd of elk is moving through the area in the early morning hours, creating potential traffic hazards along U.S. Highway 40. Trooper Tonja Cowan said about 70 to 100 elk are regularly crossing U.S. 40 near mile markers 124 to 125 early in the mornings just east of

Milner. She said the herd comes down from the hillside and crosses between about 3 and 6 a.m. On Friday morning, a woman reportedly swerved to avoid an elk carcass on the road and drove off the highway. Steamboat Springs Fire Rescue medical crews took the woman to Yampa Valley Medical Center.

Builder studies hotel options Creek View developer gets Hayden’s OK to seek $10,000 grant HAYDEN

Hayden developer Stefanus Nijsten is hunting for answers to a question floating around town: Does Hayden need a hotel, and where should it go? Nijsten and his brother, Louis, are developing the Creek View project in western Hayden and have proposed a commerce park near Yampa Valley Regional Airport with partner Bob Zibell. The Hayden Town Council threw its support Thursday behind Stefanus Nijsten’s grant request for a study of lodging needs and options. He’s applying for a U.S. Department of Agriculture rural development grant for the study. Nijsten is looking at two possible hotel locations: one at Creek View and one near YVRA. “If I don’t act on it or I don’t use it, the information will be there so someone else can,” he told the council. Mayor Lorraine Johnson said she supported the idea of a study. “Everybody keeps saying we need a hotel, but do we really?”

Local man to run for Congress Army veteran Bob McConnell to enter 2010 GOP primary Mike Lawrence

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Steamboat Springs resident Bob McConnell intends to enter the Republican primary for Congress in 2010. McConnell, 63, is a retired U.S. Army colonel who moved to Steamboat Springs in 2007 with his wife, Phyllis. He has lived in Colorado since 1984 and is a former Airborne McConnell Ranger; military and labor lawyer; founder of the Everest Environmental Project, which worked to clean up expeditions on high peaks; and is a current volunteer on Steamboat Ski Patrol. McConnell announced his intentions Wednesday night at a meeting of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4264 in Steamboat Springs. He described himself Friday as “a constitutional conservative” who would increase energy exploration on the West-

ern Slope. “The 3rd District needs a strong leader right now to get us through health care reform; create energy-related jobs, especially in mining; create jobs harvesting 2 million acres of dead trees north of I-70 before they burn; and to get our schools back on track,” he said. McConnell said federal roadless initiatives are “exactly the opposite way from where we need to be going,” adding that energy exploration can be done with environmental responsibility. “I really want to focus on bringing jobs into Colorado — and the full range of energy production,” he said. McConnell would face Ninth Judicial District Attorney Martin Beeson, of Rifle, in a Republican primary. The 3rd Congressional District covers 29 counties across the Western Slope and southern Colorado. The Congressional seat currently is held by U.S. Rep. John Salazar, a San Luis Valley Democrat who defeated Republican Greg Walcher, of Palisade, in 2004. Salazar

successfully defended the seat in 2006 against Scott Tipton, of Cortez, and again in 2008 against Wayne Wolf, of Delta County. Salazar has raised $279,626 for the 2010 election cycle, according to www.OpenSecrets. org. Beeson has raised $6,100, according to the Web site. McConnell acknowledged that he faces an uphill battle. “I just opened a bank account today,” he said Friday, referring to a new account for campaign funds. McConnell added that he is working on a Web site and plans to begin campaigning in the district this weekend. McConnell said he has led people all his life, in the Army and in several environmental nonprofit organizations after his military service. “I’ve never run for political office before in the public forum,” McConnell said. “I’m up for it. … I’ve faced challenges all my life, and I’m looking forward to being involved.” — To reach Mike Lawrence, call 871-4233 or e-mail mlawrence@steamboatpilot.com

Riders daydream about childhood bikes Ross continued from 2 good buddy gave him the bike as an extra-special 28th birthday present. If you didn’t own a Stingray when you were a kid, some punk in your neighborhood did. They stood out with their banana seats, high handlebars and a chrome back rest that evoked a Harley. Peterson’s pal, Jay Matylecisz, customized the vintage bike with some flame decals and even drilled out a pair of dice and used them to replace the original inner-tube caps. Karen Van Scoyk has pined all these years after the green Peugeot 10-speed racing bike she bought for herself in high school, but a new bike named Jade has healed the wounds left by a “friend” who permanently

borrowed her bike shortly after she moved to Steamboat. Jade is a surfer bike from Huntington, Calif., covered with sunflowers. It has almost succeeded in easing the painful memories of the long lost Peugeot. “As dorky as that Peugeot was, I rode it everywhere,” Van Scoyk said. “Then, I lent it to someone, and she stole it. I was so (bummed). I still think about that bike.” Jenette Settle didn’t own her first bike until she was in high school. She made up for it by waiting until her sister, Suzette, was away at school and took Suzette’s Schwinn out of the garage. Just to rub it in, she rode the purloined bike over the dirt. “I’ve been in love with

mountain bikes ever since,” she said. But promise you won’t tell Suzette, because to this day, she doesn’t know about Jenette and her bike. Cathy Neelin, who once owned a pretty blue Schwinn American three-speed, has a theory to explain why some people still have the bicycles of their youth and others are left to daydream about theirs. “If your parents didn’t move very often and didn’t clean out the garage,” she said, perhaps you’re still riding your childhood bike. Otherwise, probably not. Tom Ross is a longtime Steamboat resident. His column is published Tuesdays and Saturdays in Steamboat Today.

National unemployment rate at 9.7 percent Unemployment continued from 3 Unemployment appears to be stabilizing, Donald Mares, executive director of the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, said in a news release. “This improvement is encouraging news for the state,” Mares said. The unemployment rate

decreased in 62 of Colorado’s 64 counties, according to the release. Employment in three sectors increased statewide, the release stated. Government added 4,200 jobs as educators returned for the school year. Leisure and hospitality payrolls increased by 1,300 jobs, and other services were up 200. Professional and business

services and education and health services each contracted by 1,200 jobs, and the mining and logging, construction and manufacturing sectors each declined by 800 jobs, the release stated. Financial activities and information declined by 700 and 400 jobs, respectively. The national unemployment rate was 9.7 percent in August.

Music director: Orchestra concerts are family-friendly Stephanie Sant’Ambrogio is the guest soloist for SSO’s season-opening concert, which is at 7:30 p.m. today at Strings Music Pavilion. Tickets are $25 at the door for adults and $10 for students. “There’s no question that a culture has come up through our family. … Our approach is similar (and) we’ve had a lot of the same training,” John Sant’Ambrogio said. That culture helped the Vivaldi concerto come together quickly, the Sant’Ambrogios said. “It’s sort of like we’re having a conversation, and everyone else is participating, too, but also listening. … The orchestra comments on what we’ve just said, so to speak, and there’s a lot of interplay and dialogue, which I find exciting,” Stephanie Sant’Ambrogio said. Stephanie Sant’Ambrogio — who teaches violin at the University of Nevada, Reno,

spent 13 years as concertmaster of the San Antonio Symphony and founded the Cactus Pear Music Festival — is featured on the first half of today’s concert. Her program includes the Vivaldi concerto; Schubert’s Konzertstuck for Violin in D Major, a piece for solo violin and orchestra; and Fritz Kreisler’s Tambourin Chinois, a piece the violinist/composer wrote to show off his virtuosity. Beethoven’s Symphony No. 4 anchors the second half of the program. Steamboat Springs Orchestra Music Director Ernest Richardson describes the symphony, commissioned while Beethoven was in the midst of writing his iconic Symphony No. 5, as “one of the most joyful pieces (Beethoven) ever wrote.” This is the orchestra’s third fully programmed season. In the past several years, the ensemble has shifted from a volunteer community group to a professional organization that continues to feature mostly local musicians. The

2009-10 season features orchestral standards including Mozart’s Symphony No. 40 and Dvorak’s “New World Symphony.” Eroica Trio cellist Sara Sant’Ambrogio — the younger of the two Sant’Ambrogio daughters — is scheduled to play a winter soiree event and community concert with the Steamboat orchestra in February. “What we’re doing over the course of several years is really introducing the orchestra in the standard orchestral repertoire,” Richardson said. The process builds a foundation for the orchestra’s members and prepares audiences for later, heftier pieces in the classical canon, he said. In addition to keeping concert programs accessible for listeners, going through the classics in a concert season also helps characterize the Steamboat Springs Orchestra, Richardson said. “What it’s really doing is defining the sound of this orchestra and defining our approach to orchestral music,” he said.

Steamboat 700’s development is completely dependent on the U.S. 40 improvements. We are contributing $16 million plus to the community, which over the long term should enable the community to partner with the state and feds. If that never happens then the total build out of Steamboat 700 will likely not be realized. mstensland: What do you think a three-bedroom, two-bathroom single-family-home will cost in Steamboat 700? Mulcahy: The pricing runs the gamut. We have lots as small as 4,500 square feet to half acres, and the small lot house should start in the low- to mid- $300s. Moderator: The next two questions address a key point: What happens if City Council denies Steamboat 700, or a citizen-led petition drive overturns a council approval?

mstensland: Have there been times when you have thought this project would not come to fruition? Mulcahy: There are a number of alternatives, but it will likely be developed as 35-acre or 5acre conservation district and will be deed-restricted never to allow urban development. kbchiampa: How much of 700 do you plan to develop and how much are you going to sell off to other investors? How are future developers required to adhere to the plan you have proposed to the council? Mulcahy: As the master developer, (we) will deliver all the backbone infrastructure and build various housing and commercial types as our experience and the market dictates. We will always maintain the creative control to ensure a harmonious development. Other builders will be held to an exact standard resulting from our

design guidelines. Moderator: Thanks again, Danny. And thanks to readers for checking in today. Mulcahy: Thank you. I will answer all the remaining questions on my blog at www. steamboat700.com.

Chiles said the identity of a living person costs $50, and a dead person costs $200. “I really apologize to both of you for any inconvenience,” he said. After the hearing, Chris Wening said he was pleased with the outcome, but Chiles wasn’t the person he really wanted to find. “The person who started selling my identity, that’s who I want to see,” he said. Wening was informed about the identity theft in April when a store called him regarding an order he had placed. He had never visited the store and quickly realized his personal information was compromised. He worked with Steamboat Springs Police Department Detective Nick Bosick to track down the thief, and Bosick issued a warrant for Chiles’ arrest. Chris Wening said that although he would have liked to see Chiles serve more time for his crime, he prefers that the California jails house him to take the cost off of Routt County. Chiles was ordered to pay $184.50 in court costs. Routt County Judge James Garrecht said he did not want to assign any fines at this time because he would prefer all money go toward restitution. Chris Wening said he spent 80 hours and some expenses as he responded to the theft. No cost of restitution was determined Friday, and prosecutors have 90 days to decide on the amount.

The fastest growing crime in America is identity theft, Steamboat Springs Police Capt. Joel Rae said, and Steamboat residents are not immune to the national, international and increasingly local attack from identity thieves. “It has something to do with the economic state that we’re in,” Rae said. “I think that one is definitely a category that can be attributed to that.” Steamboat Springs residents have reported scams from “Africa to Jamaica,” Rae said. Many, but not all, attempts are thwarted when would-be victims identify the scam. During the previous quarter, from April 1 to June 30, 97 thefts and larcenies were reported, compared to 65 during the same time last year. The increase in thefts and larcenies also was apparent in the early part of 2009, with 100 cases reported from Jan. 1 to March 31. Bosick said there are a few attacks that are becoming increasingly common, and residents should be aware of techniques to protect themselves. One attempted scam that

State help The Colorado Attorney General’s Web site includes an “Identity theft repair kit” with a 28-page downloadable booklet of advice. The site also includes links to the three major credit bureaus and information about how to request a credit freeze from each. To access the repair kit, and other identity theft information and support,

local businesses have repeatedly reported is a large order placed through a speech-to-text service. “The order is usually for a large amount of merchandise, whether it is for pizza, windshields or floor tile,” Bosick wrote in an e-mail. “Once the order is accepted by the vendor, arrangements are made to have the merchandise shipped via a fraudulent shipping company.” The caller provides a fraudulent or stolen credit card that appears to process normally. “Once the merchandise is ordered, the shipping company contacts the vendor and advises the vendor needs to Western Union the shipping costs to the shipping company. Once the vendor sends the money via Western Union, the scam is completed,” Bosick wrote. “Generally, the suspect(s) will try to milk the vendor several times until the vendor catches on. It takes a little time before the vendor is informed that the credit card number was stolen. By that time, it is too late. “More often than not, the Western Union money transfer was sent to another country, causing any investigative efforts to come to a screeching halt,” he wrote. Bosick said that he knows about only one business in town that lost money in such a scam. The company sent $6,000 to

The nonprofit company does not charge for advice or assistance. The Identity Theft Resource Center recommends these actions if you think someone has opened an account in your name: ■ Ask to speak to the company’s fraud department about all identity theft matters. ■ Ask what process the company requires to clear this account from your name. This most likely will be a copy of the police report, a fraud affidavit, copies of two utility bills and a copy of your driver’s license. ■ Contact the three major credit reporting agencies to place a fraud alert on your credit reports, and order your complimentary credit report. Review your credit reports to identify all fraudulent accounts. ■ Contact your local law enforcement officers to make a police report. You will want to order a copy of that police report. ■ Send a fraud affidavit package certified with return receipt. This fraud package most likely will include a police report, a fraud affidavit, a copy of a utility bill and a copy of your driver’s license. You also will want to request copies of the application and the transaction records, a letter of clearance and for this account to be removed from your credit reports. ■ Give the company 20 days to respond.

$8,000 through Western Union. The money ended up in South Africa before the credit card was declined. A second common scam is an “over-payment” on a condo or apartment, Bosick said. A landlord will get an e-mail from a person claiming to be an interested renter or buyer. After arrangements have been made, the tenant is told to send a predetermined amount of money. The person will send a check that is more than the agreed amount and will ask for the landlord to send the extra back via wire transfer. After the landlord returns the money they find out that the check was fraudulent and they did not get any money from the transaction, and they are unable to get back the “extra” money they transferred. Bosick said the third common scam is when a person calls a potential victim and tells them that they owe money on a fictitious account. The potential victim is warned that if they don’t pay the money immediately they will be arrested. “People actually fall for this and will give credit card information to these people and authorize them to charge the card for the fictitious debt,” Bosick wrote. “Oftentimes, all it takes is access to the Internet and a little time to protect yourself,” he wrote.

Carolyn Sackariason THE ASPEN TIMES

ASPEN

The Aspen city government laid off 12 employees Thursday and eliminated four other positions, shaving $1.36 million off its operating budget. “It is incredibly sad to say good-bye to people we have worked beside for years,” said City Manager Steve Barwick. “We regret the enormous impact these layoffs will have on their lives and hate that the extreme economic realities around us have led us to make these difficult decisions.” Staff salaries also will be frozen for 2010. Thursday’s personnel cuts follow more than $2.4 million in cuts made to the city’s 2009 general fund budget, which included eliminating or freezing 20 positions with nine employee layoffs. In February, the city froze all employee salaries and eliminated or reduced some benefits and bonuses. Those personnel

and benefit cuts amounted to about $1.4 million in savings, said Sally Spaulding, the city’s community relations officer. The latest $1.36 million in cuts does not constitute salaries alone — it includes all costs associated with an employee, including benefits and overhead expenses. The Aspen City Council recently told Barwick to create a sustainable budget for 2010 and the years to come. Barwick met with council members individually in recent weeks to inform them of the cuts. “I’m sick about it,” said City Councilman Steve Skadron. “It’s our responsibility to manage the public’s money, and we gave direction for a balanced budget, and we were aware this was part of it. “Hardly a fun day. ... It’s not like, ‘Yahoo, we balanced the budget,’” he added. “It keeps me up at night knowing that every decision we make has an impact to the public.” Sales tax collections continue

to be weaker than projected at the beginning of 2009, and city officials don’t anticipate the winter season to bounce back. Year-to-date city sales tax collections were down 18 percent from last year through July, while lodging taxes were down 27 percent. Building and planning fees were down 46 percent year-todate through August from last year. The city is anticipating only a 1.5 percent increase in sales and lodging taxes for 2010 from 2009 levels. Building and planning fees are projected to be flat. “Some of these layoffs are in areas where workloads have diminished, such as building activity and parks construction,” Barwick said. “Other layoffs are designed to minimize impacts to customer service while adjusting the budget to fit the parameters for 2010 and the next few years.” Seven of the layoffs were in the city’s general fund, four were in the parks and open space fund and one was in the

Snowmass, Aspen skier rankings slip Scott Condon THE ASPEN TIMES

Snowmass slipped a bit and Aspen Mountain tanked it in the annual ski resort rankings by Ski Magazine. Snowmass fell from fourth last season to sixth in this year’s popularity contest. Aspen Mountain fell out of favor, dropping from seventh in last season’s preseason poll to 14th.

If there is any consolation for Aspenites, Vail failed to crack the top two for the first time in a decade. Aspen Skiing Co. officials aren’t losing sleep over the results. “Those who end up on top seem to celebrate and trumpet it. Those who don’t move on. It’s not going to make it or break it,” said Skico spokesman Jeff Hanle. Ski’s ranking are based on

a reader survey. Good results make for fun bragging rights. The results don’t attempt to explain why resorts rise or fall from one year to the next. Perhaps most Ski readers were priced out of Aspen last season because of the recession. Deer Valley, Utah, retained the top spot in 2009. WhistlerBlackcomb, B.C., moved up to second from third while Vail slipped to third from second.

They also will be given severance packages — for every year of work, employees will be given one week of pay, with a maximum of eight weeks. Employees who have worked for the city for more than 15 years will receive an additional two weeks of pay.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder insisted Friday there was no immediate danger. “There are no imminent threats, on the basis of what we have uncovered,” Holder told reporters in Minneapolis. “The FBI is working this case around the clock in both cities and in other parts of the country. And we will make sure that if there are crimes that were committed that they will be charged and people will be held accountable.” Najibullah Zazi hasn’t been arrested, and his attorney, Arthur Folsom, says he doesn’t expect him to be.

tion-only forum attended by more than 170 people who support sustainable living initiatives. The South Lincoln Park Homes development, operated by the Denver Housing Authority, is in a neighborhood built on a once-contaminated area. A mass transit light-rail system has helped boost business in the area, and the grant will pay for ongoing redevelopment plans. Union Station opened in 1870 to serve new railroad service in the city. Today, it is the central hub for the Regional Transportation District’s mass transit network and has helped attract housing and businesses to the area.

The Justice Department has launched an investigation into whether former Interior Secretary Gale A. Norton illegally used her position to steer lucrative oil leases to Royal Dutch Shell PLC, the company she works for now, officials with both departments confirmed to The Associated Press. The criminal investigation is focused on a 2006 decision by the Interior Department to award three oil shale leases on federal land in Colorado to a Shell subsidiary. Oil from the leases eventually could earn the company hundreds of billions dollars. Investigators are looking into whether Norton, named by President George W. Bush to run the agency in 2001, violated a law that bars federal

employees from discussing employment with a company if they are involved in a decision that could benefit that company. Months after granting the leases to Shell, Norton left the agency. Shell later that year hired her as an in-house counsel for its unconventional fuels division, which includes oil shale. Justice Department and Interior investigators also are trying to determine whether Norton violated a broader federal “denial of honest services” law. Under the statute, government officials can be prosecuted for violating the public trust for directing government business to favored firms. Officials spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case.

Union Pacific gives OK to revived Colorado Ski Train DENVER

The Ski Train may be back this winter after the Union Pacific Railroad agreed to let a new owner use its tracks between Denver and the Winter Park resort. The special passenger train was in danger of dying when the previous owner folded the operation last spring after a 69year run. Chicago-based Iowa Pacific Holdings, which operates freight and excursion trains in six states including Colorado, wants to take over the service. On Thursday, Omaha-based Union Pacific agreed to let Iowa Pacific use the same route the previous Ski Train owners used. Iowa Pacific President Ed Ellis says the train would use his company’s equipment and that Amtrak would provide the crews.

Mixed messages abound on texting and driving At least 22 states that ban texting while driving offer some type of service that allows motorists to get information about traffic tie-ups, road conditions or emergencies via Twitter. Nineteen states and the District of Columbia have banned all texting while driving, and eight others prohibit texting by younger drivers only, according to the Governors Highway Safety Association. Meanwhile, places offering traffic information via Twitter include: California, Colorado, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Virginia.

Colorado state senator apologizes for remarks DENVER

A Colorado state senator has apologized for suggestive remarks he made about the chairwoman of a legislative committee earlier this month. Republican Sen. Shawn Mitchell, of Broomfield, said Friday his remarks about Democratic Sen. Morgan Carroll, of Aurora, were inappropriate and unprofessional. Mitchell says he was trying to make a witness feel comfortable when he said that when he’s nervous about testifying before a committee, “I relieve that by imagining the chairwoman in her underwear.” Carroll told Mitchell she accepted the apology.

It took Darian Buelter three looks to see that he had realized a nose tackle’s dream. He looked at his hands, looked up and then looked down and realized he was in the end zone. The burly Steamboat Springs High School senior’s first career touchdown Friday against Montezuma-Cortez highlighted Steamboat’s most complete football game of the year.

And while his third-quarter interception in the end zone had little bearFRIDAY’S GAME: ing on the evenSailors 49 tual outcome Panthers 6 — Steamboat cruised to a 49-6 victory — it was something not many lineman experience. “At the core, I’m a position coach. I’m an offensive and defensive line coach,” Steamboat head coach Aaron Finch said after the game. “It’s every linemen’s dream to score

a touchdown somehow. I never scored one. I couldn’t be happier for Darian.” Buelter, who has played since fourth grade, said he’s never come close to scoring a touchdown. But after a Jack Spady punt pinned the Panthers on their own 2-yard line, Buelter got his opportunity. Bryce Mayo looked like he’d get the safety when the ball squirted out and found Buelter’s arms to put Steamboat up 360. “It was probably one of the best feelings I’ve ever had,”

Buelter said. “The ball landed in my arms. I didn’t know what to think. I looked at it, I looked up, and I looked down and realized I was in the end zone.” Buelter’s play was just a microcosm of a Steamboat defense that dominated from the first snap Friday. The Sailors (3-0 overall, 2-0 in the Western Slope League) defense gave up just 127 yards and held the Panthers to 11 yards on the ground. Steamboat also forced six See Sailors, page 21

PREP FOOTBALL the Faith Baptist Pioneers. But even the water couldn’t rain on Soroco’s parade. The Rams overcame an ugly first quarter and a relentless running back, relying on a huge

night from senior quarterback Cody Miles to knock off the Pioneers, 45-26. The win improved the team’s record to 3-0. “That feels good,” Rams coach David Bruner said. “All of the kids played really well. We came out flat, but we

turned it around and played great.” Miles was phenomenal. He, too, slipped up at the start, fumbling the ball away on his team’s first possession. He more than made up for it, See Rams, page 22

A day after a maddening loss in which the Soroco volleyball team seemed to be able to do little right, the team excised its frustrations. The Rams crushed visiting DeBeque on Friday night, evening their record at 3-3 with a three-game victory. Soroco won, 25-22, 25-17, 25-21. “I was pretty frustrated, but we had to shake it off because we had another game,” junior Caitlyn Berry. “We didn’t get mad at each other, and we passed much better. Our hitting wasn’t as great, but we pulled it together.” Soroco picked the right time to get back on a winning track. After splitting back-to-back matches Thursday and Friday, the team travels Monday to play West Grand. If it packs along the kind of game it had Friday, that could be a successful trip. In a three-game Thursday loss to North Park, Soroco struggled to handle serves and turn them into killable sets. Berry repeatedly was called for lifting the ball from her setter’s position. An hour of practice before Friday’s game helped smooth things over, coach Kim Reeves said. When game time came, Berry was on top of it, laying the groundwork for the three easy wins. “Caitlyn had a rough night (Thursday). Before the game, she was working on things, and she came out and did everything we’d talked about,” Reeves said. “She played an outstanding game.” It wasn’t only Berry that played better one day later. “Our serve receive was way, way better,” Reeves said. “Our offense was quicker, and we moved the ball around a lot better on offense. We had more blocks and better defense. “That’s what we need to do when we go to West Grand. That won’t be an easy match.”

Tigers doomed by slow start

Hayden High School football team falls to Grand Valley, 28-17 STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Two early touchdowns were too much for the Hayden High School football team to overcome Friday at Grand Valley. The Tigers fell, 28-17. Grand Valley scored on a long touchdown on its second offensive play from scrimmage to take a 7-0 lead. The Cardinals scored another long touchdown on their next possession and followed that up with a fumble recovery deep in Hayden territory to eventually take a 21-0 lead early in the game. But the young Hayden team (2-1 overall) battled back.

Treyben Letlow scored from 1 yard out late in the second quarter to send the Tigers into halftime down 28-7. On Hayden’s first possession of the second half, quarterback Graig Medvesk found Rene Valdez from 10 yards out to cut the lead to 2814. Valdez hit a 32-yard field goal on the Tigers’ next possession to cut the lead to 2817, but it was too little, too late. “The kids responded in the second half and got a good pace going in the third quarter,” Hayden coach Shawn Baumgartner said. “I like the

effort and attitude we came out with in the second half. We didn’t give up. As a young team we could have folded, but they didn’t. “Defensively, we shut them down pretty well. We said our challenge would be on our defensive backs. They did a good job once they settled down and got things clicking. Hopefully, we can build on this.” Hayden next plays at 1 p.m. Saturday in Delta against Dolores.

turnovers and didn’t allow a first down until 27 seconds left in the first half. “Mostly, we were focused on playing 48 minutes,” linebacker Connor Landusky said. “It was all about the defense. It was going as hard as we could every single play. When we play our game, we’re hard to beat.” Steamboat’s offense wasn’t needed to be the high-powered attack it normally is, but it didn’t stop the Sailors from putting up points. Steamboat gained 419 yards of total offense and did pretty much whatever it wanted. Steamboat took a 31-0 lead into halftime thanks to two touchdowns from Joe Dover — a 71-yard run and 22-yard reception — and touchdowns from Austin Hinder and Dylan Pivarnik. In the fourth quarter, after the Panthers (0-3, 0-1) scored on a 3-yard run from Minh Phan, Tyler Samlowski and Evan Hornstein each scored rushing touchdowns for Steamboat to push the margin to 49-6 Still, the story was the defense. “One of the best things I see coming out of this game is the defense flying around,” Finch said. “They got that feeling going and continued it through. They played aggressively. It was exciting to see them play like we need them to play. “We have better and better teams coming down the pipe. Tougher opponents are to come, so we need to keep getting better.” Steamboat next plays at 7 p.m. Friday at Eagle Valley.

JEFF WHEELER/MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE

It’s outta here

The Minnesota Twins’ Michael Cuddyer hits a 413-foot, two-run home run in the fourth inning against the Detroit Tigers. The Twins defeated the Tigers, 3-0, at the Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minn., on Friday. This is the closest the Twins (75-72) have been to first place since Aug. 2. They’re 6-1 at home this year against Detroit. Tigers (78-69) have stumbled since Labor Day, failing to get their bats going and take advantage of the problems bothering the Twins and Chicago White Sox. T Pct 0 1.000 0 1.000 0 .000 0 .000

Intel report on Iran drives new US missile plan Pamela Hess and Lolita C. Baldor THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON

Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Friday that the new missile defense system planned for Europe has the flexibility to adapt to changes in Iranian missile capabilities even if U.S. intelligence about Tehran’s slower-than-expected pace turns out to be wrong. President Barack Obama’s decision to scrap a Bush-era missile intercept system in Europe was based largely on a new U.S. intelligence assess-

ment that Iran’s effort to build a nuclear-capable long-range missile would take three years to five years longer than originally thought, officials said earlier. Gates, a former CIA director, said that even if Iran moves more quickly on its long-range missile program, the revised program will have the flexibility to deal more quickly and effectively with the change. “We actually are better able to deal with a changed situation — in which the intelligence assessments are wrong — with the new architecture than we

were with the old one,” Gates told reporters. The new assessment asserts Iran is unlikely to have a nuclear-capable intercontinental ballistic missile until 2015 to 2020, a U.S. government official familiar with the report told The Associated Press. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the report remains classified. It is the second time in two years U.S. intelligence has revised downward the threat posed by Iran’s weapons programs. Obama on Thursday abrupt-

ly canceled a long-planned missile shield for Eastern Europe, replacing the Bush-era project that was strongly opposed by Russia with a plan the president contended would better defend against a growing threat of Iranian missiles. The United States no longer will seek to erect a missile base and radar site in Poland and the Czech Republic, virtually on Russia’s doorstep. President George W. Bush contended that the missile base was needed to shoot down any Iranian missile if it ever devel-

oped one with adequate range to threaten the United States or Europe. The U.S. already has a similar missile site and radar in Alaska. Previous intelligence assessed that Iran would have an ICBM capable of menacing Europe and the United States sometime between 2012 and 2015, another U.S. government official said. The assessment changed because Iran has not been conducting the kind of observable development expected to accompany a robust long-range missile program, the second official said.

Iran protesters march in defiance of regime Nasser Karimi

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TEHRAN, IRAN

Tens of thousands of protesters — many decked out in the green colors of the reform movement and chanting “Death to the dictator!” — rallied Friday in defiance of Iran’s Islamic leadership, clashing with police and confronting state-run anti-Israel rallies. In the first major opposition protests in two months, demonstrators marching shoulder-to-shoulder raised their hands in V-for-victory signs on main boulevards and squares throughout the capital. Lines of police, security forces and plainclothes Basij militiamen kept the two sides apart in most cases. At times they waded into the protesters with baton charges and tear gas volleys. The demonstrators responded by throwing stones and bricks, and setting tires ablaze.

Targeted attacks robbing al-Qaida of key leadership Paisley Dodds

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON

Recent targeted attacks that killed militants in Somalia, Indonesia and Pakistan have chipped away at al-Qaida’s power base, sapping the terror network of key leaders and experienced operatives who train recruits and wage attacks. Intelligence officials said Friday that the military strikes have reduced al-Qaida’s core leadership to only a few men and diminished its ability to train fighters. This, they said, has forced al-Qaida to turn to its global

affiliates for survival. The killings of Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan in Somalia, Noordin Muhammed Top in Indonesia and Baitullah Mehsud in Pakistan — all in recent weeks — have been the latest blow. A U.S. counterterrorism official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak on the subject, said the deaths deal “a major near-term blow to their respective militant groups.” Since the start of the year, American forces have stepped up strikes against militants in terrorist hubs, including Pakistan and Somalia.
