The Christian Heritage School was full of tiny ranch­ ers, hunters, skiers and even one furry horse Friday as the school and the younger chil­ dren celebrated their love of the Yampa Valley and its history. During the annual Fall Fest­ ival, a celebration when students dress up in costumes, which stands in for an elementary Halloween party, students got a chance to fish, camp, rope and play as they honored Yampa Valley and Steamboat Springs history. The theme this year was the brainchild of Lauri Bradt, the fourth- and fifth-grade teacher.

Yampa Valley Medical Center Assistant Director of Radiology Julie Isaacs and her team plan to start using the hospital’s new digital mammography machine in early November. The $500,000 machine was purchased using money raised from the annual Penguin Plunge and other fundraisers.

Steamboat Springs

For the past four years, Mary Jo Wiedel has been lobbying for adding digital mammography to Yampa Valley Medical Center’s diagnostic imaging department. The director of that department, Wiedel wanted to replace YVMC’s 10-year-old film mammography system with easyaccess digital imaging. About three months ago, the hospital met its fundraising goals and bought a GE Senographe Essential full field digital mammography machine — the equipment has a price tag of about $520,000. Two weeks ago, that machine arrived at YVMC. On Thursday, the YVMC Auxiliary will host

an open house celebrating the equipment and a newly remodeled diagnostic imaging space. The free event is from 3 to 6 p.m. at the hospital. “What we’re doing is we’re capturing the images digitally, which makes for a shorter appointment time because we do not have to go develop the images; they’re automatically there,” Wiedel said about the new equipment. In turn, the radiologist can lighten, darken,

zoom in on and crop the image to get a closer look and more information. The department’s recent changes also include a system to digitize old images that were saved on film, allowing radiologists to view old information simultaneously with the new scans and share that information with other specialists, she said. “You always need to compare previous years so you can make sure there have been no changes,” Wiedel said. Fundraising for the machine started with a $100,000 lead gift from Gloria Gossard. The Healthcare Foundation for the Yampa Valley provided $300,000, and the Yampa See YVMC, page 6

The water and sewer enterprise funds are projected to be slightly smaller in 2010 than 2009 but are expected to generate enough revenue to cover expenditures. That’s due in part to the town’s recent increase of water rates and tap fees, which will generate additional revenue for the town, and a $45,000 contribution from the general fund to make up an annual $75,000 to $80,000 gap. The next budget workshop, which will address the budgets of the remaining town departments, is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Thursday. Martin will prepare an updated proposed budget after that meeting if council members suggest any tweaks. He said a final budget would be drafted in mid-November, which would be followed by the Town Council’s first reading of it. Should voters approve the 3.5 percent car rental and lodging tax increases in the Nov. 3 election, Martin said funding generated from the tax — an estimated $143,500 — would be dedicated to reserves or capital expenditures as directed by the Town Council. — To reach Jack Weinstein, call 871-4203 or e-mail jweinstein@steamboatpilot.com

Meth. One word that means so much: pain, anesthesia, stimulation, devastation, perceived freedom, true imprisonment, madness, power, loneliness, pride, shame and death. We live in a community where the effects of methamphetamine are everywhere. We know it personally. We have felt the anguish of meth addiction in our lives and the lives of people we love.

I know that there is an extraordinary person behind his past of drugs, lies and violence. I see love, generosity, desire — someone who I am drawn to so strongly, and he’s so easy to talk to. I’ve never met anyone like him, so I am willing to risk being hurt and take a chance on believing in this man. I do get hurt. But I still think that God has a different plan for him. He gets clean, but spends a month in jail — his relapse has violated his probation. After that month, he stays clean. He accepts Jesus. Three months later, Judge Michael O’Hara allows him to go to a six-month rehab. I have fallen in love with him, and we are engaged before he leaves.

This man that I am falling for so quickly, the one who is so charming, so exciting, so considerate, tells me he is clean off of meth. He used to use it, he tells me, but not anymore. Cool, I say. COOL. With absolutely no clue what that means — meth, meth addiction, clean off of meth. That is, until he relapses. How do I know he has relapsed? I don’t. I just know he’s different — all of a sudden he is acting crazy, paranoid. He disappears, doesn’t call me back, tells me some insane story about having to hide at a friend’s house 17 miles away, that people are looking for him, he can’t talk to me anymore and he is going to jail. Then he reappears a couple of weeks later, needing a place to stay, and he crashes on my couch for two weeks. What is wrong with him? I’m thinking, “All he does is sleep on my couch.” He’s coming down now, but I don’t understand it. My family warns me. My friends warn me; everybody warns me. They know him. He uses meth, and he has a temper. He is notorious in this small town — he‘s been arrested so

est round of talks broke down Tuesday, however, the union asked for approval from its headquarters in Washington, D.C., to allow a strike to begin. “Workers are prepared to go on strike because the company has been giving them the same bad offer since May,” said Chapin, who said workers’ pension plans were the biggest sticking point in negotiations. Chapin characterized the approval from union headquarters as a formality that is expected within days, but she said a strike is not necessarily imminent because Safeway could reopen negotiations and make concessions to prevent it. Safeway spokeswoman Kris Staaf did not return a phone call and e-mail seeking comment Friday.

Wiedel said. The new mammography machine completes the digital imaging department’s transition from film to digital equipment, according to the release. “Because we’ve expanded our cardiology services significantly, we felt a need to bring them together in the same area and provide enough space for them,” McKelvie said. YVMC specialists went through training to use the digital mammography equipment during the past week, and the staff has conducted a few exams on local women, Wiedel said. — To reach Margaret Hair, call 871-4204 or e-mail mhair@steamboatpilot.com

Chapin said King Soopers could negotiate with its workers separately and would not be forced into locking them out but has decided instead to negotiate mutually with Safeway. “Lockouts are absolutely god awful because it’s really confrontational,” she said. “People who want to work are physically prevented from it.” In addition to wages and pensions, health care costs also are at issue between the union and the companies. United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local No. 7 represents 17,000 workers in Colorado. Should a strike and lockout occur, Chapin said it would be the first such event since 1996, when there was a strike and lockout for 42 days at Safeway and King Soopers stores. — To reach Brandon Gee, call 367-7507 or e-mail bgee@steamboatpilot.com

Commentary

Can civility be lost if it was never found? Jonah Goldberg

Tribune Media Services

There is much gnashing of teeth and rending of cloth these days about the death of civility. Apparently, like Cupid with his arrow or a pixie with fairy dust, some magical sprite used to enchant America’s political combatants, ensuring that all public discourse was full of beg-your-pardons and please-and-thank-yous. But we have offended our little leprechaun. He’s Goldberg taken his Lucky Charms and gone home, leaving Americans angry, cranky and rude. Or at least that’s what I gather from all this talk of lost civility. Personally, I’m not sure I know what people are talking about. When was this Golden Age of civility? Was this glorious era of politeness

during George W. Bush’s presidency? Funny, that’s not how I remember it. So maybe the 1990s was the last great outpouring of lovingkindness? Hmmm, no. At least I don’t think Clarence Thomas would say so. Nor do I think anyone who watched the Clinton show would claim it was a hallmark of sober debate on either side. Clinton’s minions attacked victims of his sexual aggression or revelations about his accomplices in his adultery as “bimbo eruptions.” Was civility the norm when Rep. Charlie Rangel said of Newt Gingrich’s Contract with America, “Hitler wasn’t even talking about doing these things”? Was it the 1980s, when Ronald Reagan was routinely dubbed a nucleartrigger-happy “amiable dunce”? I was young then, so I’ll check with Robert Bork and see what he thinks. Perhaps it was in the 1960s and 1970s? Sure, there was admirable civil disobedience in the beginning, but there was a lot more uncivil disobedience, what with

all the domestic terror attacks and the protesters asking LBJ how many kids he killed today. The 1950s? Who knew the McCarthy era was such a high-water mark of domestic tranquility? What about the 1930s? America saw its worst labor violence, and FDR had to put up with demagogues like Huey Long and Father Coughlin (who attacked him from the left, by the way). How about the 1910s, when Woodrow Wilson threw political opponents in jail? Or in 1919, when he dubbed “hyphenated Americans” (i.e. “German-Americans) traitors? “I cannot say too often — any man who carries a hyphen about with him carries a dagger that he is ready to plunge into the vitals of this Republic. ... If I can catch any man with a hyphen in this great contest I will know that I have got an enemy of the Republic.” OK, enough of all that. See Goldberg, page 9

We have promises to keep in Afghanistan Mary Sanchez

Tribune Media Services

In the media and in conversations anywhere people gather, all sorts of compelling arguments are being made against the United States deepening its military commitment in Afghanistan. But somehow they’re not quite compelling enough. You’ve heard them by now. They include: “We don’t need another Vietnam.” “The U.S. can’t solve all the world’s problems.” Sanchez “We have enough to deal with at home with the economy on the skids.” “Those people have been fighting tribal wars since time immemorial. Their country is ungovernable.” We’re hearing these arguments more and more now that Gen.

Mallard Fillmore

Stanley McChrystal, commander of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan, has made a bold pitch to the Obama administration for a new “surge” to put down terrorist attacks in that country. In McChrystal’s view, recommitting to the long process of nation building is the only path to follow. He argues that without 40,000 more U.S. troops, and stepped up training of Afghan police and military, the U.S. mission there will fail. And that failure will be on President Barack Obama. That puts the president in a dilemma. Obama views the U.S. role in Afghanistan largely as McChrystal does. But if he ramps up forces and the Afghans fail to uphold their end of the deal, he risks entrapping the United States for perhaps another decade in a mission it cannot possibly accomplish. Critics are salivating as he ponders.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney accused Obama of “dithering.” More likely, he’s being careful, a virtue too long absent from U.S. policy toward Afghanistan. I hope his deliberations lead him to understand that we have no alternative other than helping build a strong, credible government in Afghanistan. If we do not, we will almost certainly leave the nation to the extremists who harbored terrorists in the past. That would be bad for our domestic security. And it would be yet another American betrayal of the Afghans. Quite simply, we owe these people. The United States has cut and run there once before, after aiding the Afghans in defeating the Soviets. Then we conveniently left the shattered country to its own devices, helping to create the vacuum that the Taliban See Sanchez, page 9 Bruce Tinsley

The Boathouse

People in power are ones who complain Let me offer a sincere denunciation of rudeness for rudeness’s sake. Let me also concede that there is no shortage of bilious, nasty rhetoric on the right. But here’s the thing. First, it was ever thus. American democracy has always been a hurlyburly. More important, a lot of the complaints about incivility today are really complaints from the people in power or their supporters in the media, aimed at the folks who won’t shut up and get with their program. And there’s something distinctly undemocratic about that. The civility caterwaulers claim President Barack Obama’s opponents are trying to “delegitimize” the president, often

suggesting that such efforts are racist. But what some see as delegitimization, others see as criticism. What strikes me as truly uncivil is the effort to demonize critics of the president with racial bullying. In fact, I think Obama really does have a problem with dissent. In August, he said: “I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way ... I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking.” On health care he’s been saying the time for debating his plan is over, even though the president didn’t even have a plan to debate. Now his White House is targeting Fox News and urging other news outlets to ostracize

it. Does any serious person in America think that if Fox News were supportive of the president’s agenda, this White House would be bemoaning the network’s lack of objectivity? Democracy is about disagreement, arguments. Citizenship in America requires speaking your mind. Indeed, it’s worth recalling that the freedom of the press enshrined in the First Amendment always envisioned a partisan press. “Objective” journalism is a 20th century confabulation, as alien to the Founders’ vision as transporter beams and time travel. Civility came to mean politeness in the 16th century; before that it meant being a citizen. It seems to me that authentic civility requires some incivility.

Bailing will exacerbate Afghan problems Sanchez continued from 8 arose to fill. It may be a message our nation’s ultra patriots want to hear, but the United States has been more than a little complicit in the rise of some of the terrorist groups that now afflict the world — largely by failing to do the right thing in Afghanistan. Now is our second chance. A reliable touchstone on the Afghanistan quandary is a professor in Omaha. Thomas Gouttierre leads the Center for Afghanistan Studies at the University of Nebraska. Gouttierre is the leading American scholar of Afghanistan, and the U.S. military is tapping him for advice. The center has been

hired by the U.S. government to help improve literacy in the Afghan military, as well as to train U.S. military commanders in three-week immersion seminars on the culture of Afghanistan. I spoke to him again earlier this month, after he returned from a two-week visit to Kabul, having talked with our military and Afghan officials. Bailing yet again from Afghanistan will only exacerbate the country’s problems, he said. He echoed the question he posed after 9/11, when U.S. policy was driven by a rage for revenge. “Once we drive (alQaida) out (of Afghanistan), how do we keep them from coming back?” To Gouttierre, the answer is

to help the Afghans stabilize their country. Hire Afghans — not foreign contract workers — to rebuild their roads and other infrastructure. Help them get back a country they are willing to protect from the Taliban. Continued U.S. attention also is about loyalty repaid. Many Afghans have risked their lives and the lives of their families to help the U.S. military. Leaving now would be a death sentence to those people, Gouttierre said. He acknowledges that the United States will have to evacuate eventually. But for now, he said, “we should stay there so that we do things correctly.” History, after all, is unlikely to offer a third chance.

News in brief

The city of Steamboat Springs released a report Thursday stating that a roundabout at the intersection of Routt County Road 129, known as Elk River Road, and U.S. Highway 40 is not feasible. “This intersection is better served by a traditional traffic signal,” project engineer Laura Anderson said in a news release. “High through-traffic on U.S. 40, combined with unbalanced turning movements, pedestrian movements, and higher volumes of large trucks all contributed to this finding.” A roundabout technical memorandum is available online at www.us40west.com. The report is part of the National Environmental Prot­ ection Act traffic study paid for by the Steamboat 700 annexation, with a budget of just less than $1 million, Anderson said.

Keystone Resort vice president of mountain operations Doug Lovell said the final “capstone” to the River Run Gondola project is ready for the 2009-10 season: a skier bridge connecting the slopes with the gondola for a shorter walk. The resort purchased five new snowcats this year, and a variety of parking improvements have been made. Lovell said grooming will be improved with more black and advanced-intermediate terrain included. The Keystone Scratch Game occurring Nov. 6 to Dec. 20 includes a chance to win a two-bedroom condominium overlooking the gondola for the entire season. “With every purchase of a lift ticket, night of lodging, Ski and Ride School lesson and $25 or more at an on-mountain restaurant” guests receive a scratch

Arapahoe Basin Ski Area kicked off the ski year with its earliest day on the books — two days after Loveland Ski Area opened Oct. 7. A-Basin improvements include an overhaul to the front of the Black Mountain Lodge with better flow for food service. The A-Frame got a new menu and a facelift — with repainted walls and a new floor in the bar. A-Basin CEO Alan Henceroth said the ski area now has a more vibrant online presence, with employee recruiting “virtually 100 percent online” through sites such as facebook.com and twitter.com. “We get so many people coming through with electronic applications,” Henceroth said, adding that the retention rate (returning customers) last season was the highest ever. He said the growth of the ski area’s Facebook friends has been impressive (2,332 as of Thursday).

About 20 dropoff spots are to be available. On-mountain improvements this year include relocation of the Trygve’s pipe on Peak 8 to Country Boy on Peak 9. Dirt work this summer for the Freeway Terrain Park superpipe is to require less snowmaking this winter. Other improvements include a Chair 7 re-grade for easier access from the Peak 8 base area.

Mexican drug kingpin pleads guilty Miguel Quintero faces up to 20 years in prison; sentencing expected Feb. 4 Ivan Moreno

A Mexican drug kingpin who led a fearsome cartel for more than a decade pleaded guilty Friday to U.S. drug and racketeering charges. Miguel Angel Caro Quintero pleaded guilty in Denver federal court to one count of racketeer-

ing in Colorado and one count of conspiracy to distribute marijuana in Arizona. He faces up to 20 years in prison, but could serve as little as 10 years. He is expected to be sentenced Feb. 4. Caro Quintero, 46, led the Sonora Cartel, which U.S. authorities say smuggled thousands of tons of marijuana and cocaine to the United States in the 1980s. His brother, former cartel leader Rafael Caro Quintero, was convicted in the 1985 torture-slaying of undercover Drug Enforcement Administration agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena Salazar. Rafael Caro Quintero was arrested in Costa Rica in 1985 and extradited to Mexico, where he is serving a 40-year prison term for Camarena’s murder. Authorities say Miguel Caro Quintero took up the drug operation after his brother’s capture. In 2000, the brothers were identified as significant foreign narcot-

ics traffickers under a federal law known as the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act. Caro Quintero seemed relaxed and smiled as he talked to his attorneys Friday. When U.S. District Judge Philip A. Brimmer asked if he understood the implications of his plea, he responded in Spanish: “I feel perfectly fine.” He was led away in handcuffs. “I know Mr. Quintero is very pleased to be on the road to getting closure on these cases,” said his attorney, Walter Nash. In exchange for Caro Quintero’s plea, prosecutors agreed to drop several other charges that would have sent him to prison for “many, many years,” Nash said. U.S. Attorney David Gaouette called it a “very significant case” and one of the largest drug distribution schemes ever in Colorado. “I also think it showed the determination of law enforcement to pursue this, even though

this occurred in the ’80s,” he said. Prosecutors described an elaborate operation in which Caro Quintero exported two to four tons of marijuana a month to Colorado between 1985 and 1988. It was distributed throughout the United States by aircraft and vehicle. Prosecutors estimate Quintero may have supplied more than 100 tons of marijuana and received more than $100 million during that period. The Sonora Cartel’s Colorado connection was uncovered in 1988, when a motel maid in Boulder found $42,000 in cash and reported it to authorities. The room’s tenant said he was working for the cartel, and his arrest ultimately led authorities to seize about $10 million in cash, gold, artwork, rare coins and other valuables associated with cartel proceeds from storage lockers in Colorado and Arizona.

out-of-control aircraft was loose. “That’s what they’re going to be looking at, that call,” said Joseph Gutheinz Jr., a retired Army pilot and former FAA and U.S. Department of Transportation inspector. “If this guy was calling the FAA reporting a false emergency, and that disrupted other air traffic, that would be the bigger issue here.” Richard and Mayumi Heene reported last week that their son Falcon was in the escaped balloon hurtling through the air as millions watched on live TV. The boy was later found safe at the family’s Fort Collins home, and authorities say they think the balloon scare was a hoax. The FAA is saying little about what it is investigating. The balloon episode caused a brief disruption at Denver International Airport last week, with some planes sent to different

runways as a precaution, but no flights were grounded. If authorities determine the phone call was a hoax, the U.S. Department of Transportation could pursue a federal criminal case. Mary Schiavo, a former inspector general for the Transportation Department, said she suspects the FAA will wait for local law enforcement to figure out whether the Heenes’ reports were intentionally false. “They have to prove intent for a criminal case,” Schiavo said. Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden said he expects to recommend charges including conspiracy, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, making a false report to authorities, and attempting to influence a public servant. The most serious charges are felonies and carry a maximum sentence of six years in prison.

The parents who reported last week that their 6-year-old son may have been on board a giant, runaway balloon could potentially be in more trouble with the Federal Aviation Administration for making a phone call than for setting loose the saucer-shaped craft, aviation experts say. Most FAA rules on the release of unmanned balloons, rockets and kites don’t take effect until aircraft or property are put in danger or the craft enters restricted airspace. Hobbyists don’t even need a pilot’s license to fly an engine-less craft weighing less than 155 pounds. Most likely, analysts say, the FAA is focusing on a phone call it received from the boy’s father, Richard Heene, who reported the

Workshop- 1:1 help filling out the FAFSA

The mother of the 6-year-old boy once feared missing inside a runaway helium balloon admitted the whole saga was a hoax, according to court documents released Friday. Mayumi Heene told sheriff’s deputies that she and her husband, Richard, “knew all along that Falcon was hiding in the residence” in Fort Collins, according to an affidavit used to get a search warrant for the home. She reportedly told investi-

gators the incident was a hoax meant to make them more marketable to the media. “Mayumi described that she and Richard Heene devised this hoax approximately two weeks earlier. ... She and Richard had instructed their three children to lie to authorities as well as the media regarding this hoax,” the affidavit said. Richard Heene has denied a hoax. His lawyer, David Lane, said Friday that he is waiting to see the evidence in the case. Mayumi Heene’s lawyer, Lee Christian, was traveling and didn’t immediately respond to messages left with his office.

Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden has said he will recommend charges against the Heenes including conspiracy, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, making a false report to authorities, and attempting to influence a public servant. The most serious charges are felonies and carry a maximum sentence of six years in prison. Alderden said authorities also would be seeking restitution for the costs of the balloon chase, though he didn’t provide a figure. His office has said it will likely be next week before it forwards its findings to prosecutors to decide on charges.

Pilots miss Twin Cities by 150 miles Investigators look at fatigue as possible cause Joan Lowy

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON

Were the pilots distracted? Catching up on their sleep? Federal investigators struggled to determine what the crew of a Northwest Airlines jetliner were doing at 37,000 feet as they sped 150 miles past their Minneapolis destination and military jets scrambled to chase them. Unfortunately, the cockpit voice recorder may not tell the tale. A report released late Friday said the pilots passed breathalyzer tests and were apologetic after Wednesday night’s amazing odyssey. They said they had been having a heated discussion about airline policy. But aviation safety experts and other pilots were frankly skeptical they could have become so consumed with shop talk that they forgot to land an airplane carrying 144 passengers. The most likely possibility,

they said, is that the pilots simply fell asleep somewhere along their route from San Diego. New recorders retain as much as two hours of cockpit conversation and other noise, but the older model aboard Northwest’s Flight 188 includes just the last 30 minutes — only the very end of Wednesday night’s flight after the pilots realized their error over Wisconsin and were heading back to Minneapolis. They had flown through the night with no response as air traffic controllers in two states and pilots of other planes over a wide swath of the mid-continent tried to get their attention by radio, data message and cell phone. On the ground, concerned officials alerted National Guard jets to go after the airliner from two locations, though none of the military planes got off the runway. With worries about terrorists still high, even after contact was

sale re-established, air traffic controllers asked the crew to prove who they were by executing turns. A report released by airport police Friday identified the pilot as Timothy B. Cheney and the first officer as Richard I. Cole. The report said the men were “cooperative, apologetic and appreciative” and volunteered to take preliminary breath tests that

were zero for alcohol use. The pilots, both temporarily suspended, are to be interviewed by NTSB investigators next week. Investigators don’t know whether the pilots may have fallen asleep, but National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Keith Holloway said Friday that fatigue and cockpit distraction will be looked into.

Bank failures surpass 100, most since 1992 The cascade of bank failures this year surpassed 100 on Friday, the most in nearly two decades. And the trouble in the banking system from bad loans and the recession goes deeper than the number suggests. Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of other banks remain open even though they are as weak as many that have been shuttered.

At the end of June, the FDIC had flagged 416 as being at risk of failure, up from 305 at the end of March and 252 at the beginning of the year.

Regulators are seizing banks slowly and selectively — partly to avoid inciting panic and partly because buyers for bad banks are hard to find. Going slow buys time. An economic recovery could save some banks that would otherwise go under. But if the recovery is slow and smaller banks’ finances get even worse, it could wind up costing even more. The bank failures, 101 in all, are the most in any year since 120 collapsed in 1992, at the

It’s the boldest idea yet to rein in Wall Street recklessness: Put the Federal Reserve in charge of policing not just the nation’s banks, but also how much their employees are paid. But can it work? Some experts say the plan might help correct a pay system that has long rewarded those who make the sort of high-risk bets that triggered the financial crisis.

Others see it as merely a shortterm fix that will have little effect on making banks act more prudently. The biggest concern is that as long as the government stands ready to rescue troubled banking giants, there’s little to discourage traders from making potentially calamitous gambles on stocks, bonds and exotic financial products. “Outsized pay that is a result of taking lots of risk is a problem,” said Bill Fleckstein, a Seattle-based hedge fund manager. “But the real problem is the fact that these institutions have a setup where it’s heads they win, tails the taxpayer loses.” Signs suggest that system still exists today.

utives, traders or loan officers. Even banks that didn’t benefit from the taxpayer-financed bailout would be subject to the Fed’s compensation oversight. The Fed plan would require the 28 biggest banks — including Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Citigroup Inc., Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co. — to submit compensation plans for review. Thousands of smaller banks also would face supervision. The Fed’s plan was unveiled the same day that the Treasury’s “pay czar,” Kenneth Feinberg, announced plans to slash pay at seven big firms that haven’t repaid their government bailout money. Those companies must cut their top executives’ average total compensation — salary and bonuses — in half, starting in November.

loans and other federal subsidies. If those bets were to go bad, the loss to taxpayers could be immense. That’s led some critics to call on the government to ban big commercial banks from trading risky securities — or shrink them so their collapse wouldn’t jeopardize the economy. The Obama administration and the Federal Reserve have resisted such calls, opting instead to seek the authority to take over and wind down large banks that get into serious trouble. On Thursday, the Fed took a different tack, detailing plans to address the outsized compensation and risk-taking blamed for fueling the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Under the plan, the central bank wouldn’t set compensation, but it would review pay polices — and veto those found to encourage excessive risk-taking by exec-

Health care legislation taking shape in the House carries a price tag of at least $1 trillion within a decade, significantly higher than the target President Barack Obama has set, congressional officials said Friday as they struggled to finish work on the measure for a vote early next month. Democrats have touted an unreleased Congressional Budget Office estimate of $871 billion in recent days, a total that many officials acknowledge understates its true cost by $150 billion or more. That figure excludes several items designed to improve benefits for Medicare and Medicaid recipients and providers, as well as public health programs and more, they added.

The officials who disclosed the details did so on condition of anonymity, saying they were not authorized to discuss them publicly. Some moderate Democrats have expressed reluctance to support a bill as high as $1 trillion. Last month, Obama said in a nationally televised address before a joint session of Congress that he preferred a package with a price tag of about $900 billion. Obama’s speech provoked enough concern among House Democrats that senior presidential aides were called to a meeting in the Capitol to explain precisely what the president had in mind when he set the target. The figure of $871 billion “is a coverage number. I think the White House has made that very clear. It is a number about coverage,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi said

recently when asked about the size of the measure. House Democrats took steps to fulfill another of Obama’s goals during the day, announcing their legislation would completely close a gap in Medicare prescription drug coverage within a decade, five years faster than originally contemplated. After months of delay, Democrats in the House and Senate are aiming for votes next month on legislation to fulfill Obama’s goal of expanding coverage to millions who lack it, banning insurance industry practices such as denying coverage for pre-existing conditions and slowing the growth in health care spending nationally. The House bill will also lift the insurance industry’s exemption from federal anti-trust laws, a provision under consideration in Senate negotiations, as well.

US drones protecting ships from Somali pirates NAIROBI, Kenya

For the first time, sophisticated U.S. military surveillance drones capable of carrying missiles have begun patrolling waters off Somalia in hopes of stemming rising piracy. Three ships have been seized in a week off Africa’s lawless eastern coast and Vice Adm. Robert Moeller, the deputy commander for the U.S. Africa Command, said pirates continue to pose a significant challenge. With the monsoon season now ended, there have been a rash of attacks as pirates return to the open seas. More than 130 crew members from seven ships are currently being held, including about 70 from the latest attacks.

Iran to respond to UN nuclear proposal next week TEHRAN, Iran

Iran put off until next week a formal response to a U.N.backed plan to ship much of its uranium to Russia for enrichment, the country’s nuclear envoy reported Friday. The West sees the proposal as a way to curb Tehran’s alleged efforts to make nuclear weapons. Ali Asghar Soltanieh, Iran’s representative to the In­ternational Atomic Energy Agency, said Tehran is still studying the proposal and would inform the U.N. nuclear watchdog “next week about our evaluation.” “We are working and elaborating on all the details of this proposal,” Soltanieh told state Press TV. The plan was put forth Wednesday after three days of talks between Iran and world powers in Vienna. The United States, Russia and France endorsed the deal Friday, when an official response from Tehran had been expected.

NATO considers beefing up Afghan war support BRATISLAVA, Slovakia

Top NATO and United Nations officials signaled Friday they may request more international troops to join American forces in Afghanistan as the top U.S. defense official said President Barack Obama is still weeks from deciding on a shift in war strategy. At a Friday meeting of 28 NATO defense ministers, Pentagon chief Robert Gates said allies indicated a willingness to boost military and civilian aid — even as Obama remains undecided about whether to escalate U.S. troop strength to counter Afghan insurgents. NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen cited

AROUND THE WORLD “broad support” from defense ministers to stick with a war strategy devised by American commander Gen. Stanley McChrystal that calls for tens of thousands more combat troops — including as many as 80,000 Americans.

Suicide bomber kills 7 at major Pakistani air base ISLAMABAD

A suicide bomber on a bicycle attacked a major Pakistani air base on Friday, killing seven in an escalating campaign that strikes at the heart of this nuclear-armed nation’s security forces.

The strike was one of three bombings in northwest Pakistan that killed 24 people and wounded at least 28 as the army pushed a seven-day offensive deeper into al-Qaida and Taliban territory close to the Afghan border. About 200 people have been killed this month in a string of militant attacks on military, police and civilian targets nationwide. The onslaught is undermining confidence in the U.Sbacked government and risks sapping public support for the assault in South Waziristan. The civilian government and politically powerful military are under intense international pressure to root out Islamist militants that also are blamed for increas-

ing attacks on U.S. and NATO troops across the frontier in Afghanistan. The army has undertaken several offensives along the border in recent years, losing hundreds of soldiers, but questions remain about the country’s commitment to the fight against militants that it nurtured for years for use as proxies in India and Afghanistan.

$205-million man says he sold meth chemical MEXICO CITY

A Chinese-Mexican businessman arrested after police found a $205 million stash of cash in his Mexico City mansion has

Zhenli Ye Gon’s lawyers, who are fighting efforts to extradite him to Mexico from the United States, vehemently deny their client admitted anything illegal and call the report misinformation intended to sway public opinion against him. Mexico’s deputy attorney general in charge of extraditions, Leopoldo Velarde Ortiz, said U.S. prosecutors told him about conversations with Ye Gon in which he said he sold tons of a chemical used to make methamphetamine on the black market.

Norwood outdoes Soroco Rams fall short of undefeated season Joel Reichenberger PILOT & TODAY STAFF

OAK CREEK

Soroco football coach David Bruner didn’t say it to be critical of his team’s fourth-quarter effort, and he wasn’t set on accusing Norwood of running up the score in Friday night’s 41-20 home defeat. He said it because although Friday’s game: Soroco picked up Rams 20 its first loss of the Mavericks season in its last 41 game, missing out on a chance for the school’s first undefeated fall in more than 40 years, he could feel nothing but pride in the way his team played. “People are going to look at that, and they’re not going to know,” he said. “That wasn’t a 20-point game. “I’m awfully proud of my kids tonight.” Norwood, 8-0, remained undefeated thanks to a grueling running attack that gained nearly 500 yards. Soroco ended its season with a 7-1 record, one of the best in the program’s history. Norwood’s physical style eventually took a toll on the Rams, and Norwood was able to add two touchdowns late in the fourth quarter to walk away See Soroco, page 23

Steamboat Springs football takes rivalry game against Moffat County Luke Graham

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

The difference between the 2008 and 2009 versions of the Steamboat Springs High School football team was on full display Friday against rival Moffat County. The Sailors, who let early opponent scores do them in last

season, waded through the first punch Friday and delivered a 42-14 blasting of the Bulldogs, earning their fifth straight playoff appearance in the process. Moffat County scored with its first drive of the game, a 44-yard strike from quarterback Matt Linsacum to running back Pablo Salcido for a 7-0 lead. Whereas early deficits

against Palisade, Glenwood Springs and Pueblo County wilted Steamboat last year, Moffat’s lead Friday seemed to simply wake up a dangerous, dangerous Sailors team. Steamboat poured on 28 points in the second quarter behind two touchdown runs from Joe Dover, one from Austin Hinder and a beautiful catch from Jack Spady.

Defensively, Steamboat allowed only three Moffat County first downs after the Bulldogs’ initial drive. “You just can’t let it get you down,” Steamboat senior Bryce Mayo said. “You’ve got a whole game to play. I wasn’t worried. I had all the confidence in our 11 on defense, and we stepped See Sailors, page 23

Cheers erupted from the stands Friday night when Hayden quarterback Graig Medvesk hit receiver Ben Fulton for a 45-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter. But there was too little of that for the Hayden Tigers, and too much of Meeker’s 6-foot-2, 208pound Mitchell Jacob. Jacob and fellow back Tyrel Gerloff used their size and speed

to help the Cowboys improve the team’s record to 7-1 this season with a 36-7 win against the Tigers. “It felt good,” Fulton said about the fourth-quarter touchdown. “This was my last game on this field, and it was nice to put up some points. We are never going to give up.” Fulton said the pass was intended to get a first down, but he was able to break several tackles and find the sideline en route to the Tigers’ only score of the game. Fulton finished the game with 80

yards on two catches. Medvesk led the Hayden running game with 40 yards on 13 carries. He was nine of 20 for 121 yards passing the ball. But the Tigers offense could never get on track and finished with less than 160 yards in the game. “We knew they were big, and we knew they were going to be physical going into the game,” Hayden coach Shawn Baumgartner said. “They’ve run over teams all year long, and See Hayden, page 23

After two games Friday night, things didn’t look good for the hometown Hayden Tigers. But it takes three games to win a volleyball match, and the Tigers were not going to give up at home. “It was nice to see our team fight back,” coach Greg Johnson said. “We were just too inconsistent, and that got

us in the end.” Meeker jumped out to the lead by winning the first game 25-22 and then dominating the second, 25-7. But just when it looked like the Tigers were going to be swept out of the team’s own gym, they turned the tables on Meeker. The Tigers got things rolling behind a strong effort by seniors Rachael Koehler and Brittany Turner and sophomore Erin Koehler. The Tigers fought back to win the third game, 25-15, and then evened the match with a 25-17 win in the fourth game. Rachael Koehler finished with seven kills, eight blocks and four aces. Erin Koehler added seven kills and four blocks, and Turner sparked the home team with seven kills

and eight digs. Jarah Woodley, in her first game back after an injury, also had an inspirational showing with eight digs. But the Tigers couldn’t complete the comeback and lost to Meeker, 15-8, in the final, deciding game. “It was a great match, and I can’t say enough about our players,” Johnson said. “We need to pass the ball better, and we need to be more consistent.” The Tigers play Soroco today. The varsity match is scheduled for 3 p.m. The junior varsity plays at 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. The team also is scheduled to play a district playoff game at home Tuesday. The time of that match has not been announced. —To reach John F. Russell call 871-4209 or e-mail jrussell@steamboatpilot.com

Sailors expected to be 3rd seed SSHS continued from 21 ment. There, Montrose is expected to be the top seed, Mullen the second, Steamboat the third and Palisade the fourth. Judging by seasonal results, it appears it could be the toughest district in the state. Mullen, despite playing a Class 5A league all year, drops down to 4A for the playoffs. “It’s really tough,” Hall said. “It’s tough when you get these qualifiers in taking second seeds and taking a first seed away. So it’s a little frustrating how that’s set up. But that’s what we’re stuck with.” On Friday, Steamboat initially looked like its old self. The Sailors dominated in the first game, before the Panthers came back in the second. Steamboat won the third and fourth games, but Hall said it wasn’t in the fashion she would have liked to see. Colleen King led Steamboat

with 14 kills and seven blocks. Devin Wilkinson added 11 kills and seven blocks, Lilly Hoff had four kills and Maggie Stanford had six blocks. “We had a couple shaky games,” Hall said. “We haven’t played a match from start to finish for a couple weeks. So definitely there is concern amongst us, as there should be.” Steamboat will have the weekend off before returning Monday for a full week of practice. Hall said it would be good to have the full week, especially considering the task ahead for the Sailors. “It’s getting our confidence back,” she said. “We need to get back in sync with each other again. We’re making mistakes we did in the beginning of the season. We need to fine-tune everything. We need to get back into the gym and work really hard this week.” — To reach Luke Graham, call 871-4229 or e-mail lgraham@steamboatpilot.com

2 girls entered to compete Cross-country continued from 21 in the state tennis tournament. Jeff Sperry, Hunter Thompson and Byron Brane have given the team depth. Steamboat also will have two girls entered, Cassady Daley and Katherine Lynch. “They’ve all had some very good races,” Reust said. “We’ve been telling them all along that every meet is practice until this one. Now they know this is the one where they either make it or their season is over.”

They will tear across the Aspen Golf Course, a different venue than the team saw in a trip to Aspen earlier this month. “We haven’t seen it, but it’s probably like Haymaker without any substantial uphill climbing, maybe with some rolling or gradual hills,” Reust said. “It will be slower because it will be all grass, but times don’t matter anymore. Only the place does.” — To reach Joel Reichenberger, call 871-4253 or e-mail jreichenberger@steamboatpilot.com

Coach: Focus turning to something bigger Sailors continued from 20

2 teams were undefeated Soroco continued from 20 with the seemingly comfortable win. There was nothing comfortable about most of Friday night’s clash, however. The two previously unblemished teams traded blows throughout the contest. Soroco’s high-water mark came late in the third quarter, when senior Alex Estes rejuvenated his team with a go-ahead 95-yard interception return for a touchdown. That catch and long run — he dipped and ducked through what seemed like the entire Mavericks squad — put Soroco up 20-18 with 1:18 left in the third quarter. Norwood’s offense isn’t called grueling for no reason, though. It had been methodically driving for the dagger-to-the-heart touchdown before Estes’ interception, and it went right back to work afterward. Jordan Nielson finished with an astonishing 300 yards on 40 carries and led the Mavericks straight down the field to open the fourth quarter, first to retake the lead and then to add insurance. “Their guys were just so strong up front,” Soroco senior lineman Gage Achtner said. “They could get three or four yards every time, and that really adds up.” That Norwood was able to ride its highly acclaimed running

attack came as no surprise. That Soroco couldn’t manage to answer with its usually scintillating offense, however, did. Rams quarterback Cody Miles took his team’s first offensive play 80 yards for a 6-0 lead in the first quarter, and he hooked up with Estes from 11 yards out to tie the game at 12 in the second. Mostly, though, Norwood applied the same physical mentality on defense that was so effective on offense. Soroco didn’t handle it much better. The Mavericks cornerbacks jammed the Rams receivers, blocking them hard at the line of scrimmage and throwing Soroco’s precision passing attack into disarray. Norwood’s defensive line hounded Miles all night, and its linebackers and safeties never lost sight of him. The senior rarely found room to run even when he managed to avoid a sack. “We knew what he could do if he got some space, so we tried to keep the pocket tight around him,” Norwood coach Tom LaFramboise said. “We played tough, but they played tough too. It was just a great game.”

Hayden next plays West Grand Hayden continued from 20 they just wore us down.” Meeker’s big backs took control of the game early, controlling the line of scrimmage and putting the Cowboys in a position to score. Meeker jumped out to a 22-0 first half lead. Jacob rushed for 114 yards in the game on 12 carries. He had one touchdown and pounded in two, two-point conversions.

When Jacob didn’t have the ball, the Tigers had their hands full with Gerloff and Cowboy quarterback Brock Campbell. Gerloff finished the game with 43 yards on 12 carries and netted two first half touchdowns. Campbell had 93 yards on seven carries and scored the opening touchdown of the game. Hayden will be on the road Friday for a 7 p.m. Contest against West Grand.

“I feel good. It’s the best I’ve felt playing football since seventh grade,” Dover said. “It makes it easy for me. I’ve got that extra gear, sure, but the line blocks and I get the perfect hole. So thank you to them.” Moffat’s Jasen Kettle scored from 37 yards out in the final minute to put the score at the final 42-14. Steamboat, at 8-0 overall and 6-0 in the Western Slope League, now will shoot for a league title. The team plays at 7 p.m. Friday against Buena Vista at home before concluding its season at Glenwood the next week, a game that could be for the league title. But Steamboat coach Aaron Finch said on the heels of the team’s best performance of the year, the focus is

The game features the top high school players in the nation and is broadcast live on NBC. Previous representatives in the game have included Reggie Bush, Vince Young, Adrian Peterson and Tim Tebow. Hinder will be joined in the game by Grandview linebacker and University of Notre Dame commit Chris Martin.

starting to turn to something bigger. “To get that done in Week 8 is a good thing,” Finch said. “It allows us to think through how we want to finish the regular season and set some short goals. Now we’ll start talking about the golden football. We’re there, now we got to figure out how to win it.”

up.” They certainly did. After Moffat put together its 10-play, 62-yard drive to start the game, Steamboat’s defense was too much. The Sailors limited the Bulldogs to 16 plays the rest of the first half, including three 3-and-out drives. And when the defense does its job, that means the potent Steamboat offense is on the field. Steamboat put together scoring drives of seven, eight, two and five plays in the second quarter to take a 28-7 lead into halftime. After the two teams traded long scoreless drives in the third quarter, Dover again took over. The senior, who finished the game with 187 yards rushing on just 13 carries to go along with four touchdowns, scored on runs of 22 and 48 yards in the fourth quarter to put Steamboat up 42-7.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2009 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Monica Arnold, 29; Ben Gillies, 30; Kevin Kline, 62; F. Murray Abraham, 70 Happy Birthday: If something has been bothering you, do whatever you can to ensure your own success. Getting ahead and helping those less fortunate will all bring satisfaction. Don't let the alterations at home take you by surprise. Make the right choices for yourself now and you will expand your interests throughout the upcoming year. Your numbers are 3, 8, 14, 20, 31, 36, 44 ARIES (March 21-April 19): If there is someone or something that draws you from your past, revisit that place or experience. You will be emotional about matters pertaining to partnerships. As long as you learn from experience, you will not make the same mistakes. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may feel that you are being forced into a position but, before you get your back up, consider the benefits. You stand to make professional and personal lifestyle gains. Be articulate and what you want is what you will get. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Work on something you enjoy whether it's self-improvement, finishing a job or working on a hobby. Your love life will pick up if you put time aside for romance late in the day. Stick close to home.

★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Relationships will suffer if you are too possessive. Let everyone do as they please. It's better to spend quality time with family and friends instead of trying to orchestrate every minute of their day.★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don't get angry by the way things are being done at home. Use your charm to talk others into doing things your way. Don't hire contractors or make costly residential changes until you have done more research. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Take on a challenge or do something that will update your look or add to your efficiency. You can take care of an emotional matter that has been bothering you. You will see someone in a different light by the reaction you receive. ★★★★★

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take care of any complaints quickly and be compassionate to the mood swings of the people around you. Refrain from taking anything or anyone for granted if you want to come out a winner. Giving your all emotionally and physically will result in respect and support. ★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Take care of the emotional and personal aspects of your life by conversing with the people from whom you need approval and support. Any resistance you receive will be in the form of protective deception. Read between the lines; information will be withheld.

Cathy ® Cathy Guisewite

★★★★

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don't get angry or aggressive when it comes to money, donations or debts. It's not worth getting upset over something that cannot be helped. Instead, concentrate on ways to replace, in other ways, whatever you've lost. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Discovering new and innovative ideas, tactics and financial possibilities will lead to a change in the way you view someone you are close to. Don't let someone you love lead you astray or take you for granted. ★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone is playing emotional games with you. Do not let this person or anyone else take advantage of you financially, legally or physically. Love is in the stars but you must proceed with caution. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Change is good and the more you do to update your appearance or include a different lifestyle to the one you already have, the easier it will be to round out what's been missing from your life in the past. Good fortune is heading your way.

Monty ® Jim Meddick

★★★★

Birthday Baby: You are inquisitive, inventive and imaginative. You are a pioneer and a volunteer -- forceful, aggressive and a powerful advocate for the underdog.

came the ruined relationships, the jail time, the loss of respect, my self-worth, the loss of businesses and friends. I could write a book. When I finally quit meth, I was living in a storage shed, going through my second divorce and losing custody of the youngest of my three kids. I was facing felony charges yet again — surely this time I was going to prison. My life was over. My kids were better off without me. I wanted to die. What I really wanted was to get off meth, but that was impossible. I had tried so many times before only to fail, again and again. I had been given so many chances, yet I always messed them up. I found myself in jail once again. I called the only person who still would accept my call. I could tell she was devastated by my relapse. I had lied to her. I had hurt her. I expected her to tell me not to call again, but she didn’t. Instead she started writing me in jail, sending me bible scriptures. After a month she bailed me out of jail, but only if I would start going to church with her. Of course, I said I would. Just get me out of jail. A few months later I decided not to do this on my own. I needed help. I asked God to lead my life, help me beat my addiction to meth. A couple months later I was allowed to go to rehab in Grand Junction. I was ready. I had been clean seven months, my mind was clear, my heart was being healed and I had hope.

God made my life new again. I knew I had a long road ahead, but I was ready to work for my recovery. Jessie and I married three days after I got out of rehab. Our lives have been blessed so much.

Our story It’s our desire and passion to help others who are hurting. We are involved in Com­ munities Overcoming Meth­ amphetamine Abuse because we believe in the message we carry. We are involved with Celebrate Recovery because God is changing lives up there. We have been a part of Celebrate Recovery for the past five years, knowing that it is the strength of God and the support of others who are walking the same walk that helps us stay living as right as we can. Today, we are convinced more than ever that we have to be persistent in our involvement in the lives of those who are struggling with addiction and in the lives of the kids in our community. We’ll never know how far the effects of our efforts reach. That makes us no less determined. Determined to do what we can to help kids understand what just a taste can lead to. We welcome anyone and everyone to join us — join us at Celebrate Recovery on Friday nights, join in COMA’s efforts in our community, join us in supporting Drug Court clients. If you are hurting, or know somebody who is, call us. Our numbers are: The Journey at First Baptist, 824-5926; the Cramers, 826-4000; COMA, 824-COMA.
