THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION
by ANDREW TRAVERS
POPULAR MUSIC G. LOVE and Special Sauce bring their hip-hop infused blues back to Belly Up Aspen on Thursday, March 30. The Philadelphia band and frequent local guest were most recently in town last winter, when they played their most recent album — 2015’s “Love Saves the Day” — from start to finish, then did a second set taking requests and playing from the band’s whole catalog. After an eight-year break from recording together and a run of solo discs and tours, G. Love reunited with Special Sauce (drummer Jeffrey Clemens and bassist Jim Prescott) for 2014’s “Sugar.” Soon after, the band made “Love Saves the Day,” which came out in late 2015. It showcases the band on the grittier, harder-rocking side of its trademark hip-hop blues sound and working with guest collaborators on six of the 12 tracks — highlights include Citizen Cope (on “Muse”), Lucinda Williams (on a cover of Leadbelly’s “New York City”) and Los Lobos guitarist David Hidalgo (on the roaring title track). “Our music is rooted in the Delta blues,” G. Love told The Aspen Times last year. “And if you keep pushing the blues, you’re going to end up on the rock ‘n’ roll side of town, and I feel like this is our most rocking record.” Tickets range from $35 for general admission to $65 for reserved seats, available at www.belly upaspen.com and the Belly Up box office.
G. Love and Special Sauce will headline Belly Up Aspen on Thursday, March 30.

The perfect home for Lucy would be one without kids under 8. She needs someone who will take her on walks everyday and being a Beagle - she will need to stay on a leash. Lucy is up to date on shots, spayed and microchipped. To meet this sweet girl, please fill out an application first at luckydayrescue.org.

1950 ASPEN
“WINTER FILM SERIES HELD EACH MONDAY,” announced The Aspen Times on Jan. 8, 1953. “The Aspen winter film series began this Monday and is scheduled for the next four weeks, each Monday evening at 8:00 p.m. at the Wheeler Opera House. A ski short is featured with each showing and the movies to appear next are: on January 12, ‘Meet John Doe’ with Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck; on January 19, ‘Stagecoach’ with John Ford directing and John Wayne acting; on February 2, ‘It Happened One Night’ with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert; and on February 9, ‘Pygmalion’ written by George Bernard Shaw and stars Wendy Hiller and Leslie Howard. The film series is under the management of Mrs. Joan Lane and proceeds will go to the Aspen Grammar and High School, Pitkin County Library, and Aspen Institute of Humanistic Studies. An added feature at the showing Monday will be a short movie by Bob Murri, ‘Mountain Madness’ starring Shady Lane, John Doremus and Dagmar (the Lanes’ honey colored collie).” The photo above shows an audience inside the Wheeler Opera House in the early 1950s.

GEAR of the WEEK
by STEPHEN REGENOLD
WEAR IT: SWEDISH ABISKO TREKKING TIGHTS A CLASSIC LOOK and simple functionality set the Abisko Trekking Tights apart. Made by Fjallraven, the legwear offers a Swedish aesthetic for your Saturday hike. Or, take them on a serious trek. The Abisko Tights are made for dedicated trompers of the woods and trail. For the uninitiated, tights are often a superior choice over pants for the outdoors. The closer fit and articulation improves your stride. Fabric doesn’t swish or rub as much between the thighs, and the tighter fit makes for less snagging off trail. I hiked and ran in the new Fjallraven tights over the past month for this review. They are comfortable at both speeds. Fjallraven uses the right materials and offers a svelte Nordic design. Caveat: You pay for the niche pants offering, which are made in Lithuania. At $175, these leggings cost a good margin more than common hiking pants. For the extra money you get a closer fit and some material advantages over traditional pocket-laced trail pants. Notably, the company adds a unique fabric on the knees and the rear end. These spots, more prone to ground contact, get a waterproof splay. The chosen fabric is textured and rubbery, a durable membrane against dewy grass and wet boulders if you choose to kneel or plop down for a break. The rest of the tights are made of a woven synthetic fabric that is not waterproof but has copious stretch. At no time wearing the Fjallraven Abisko Trekking Tights did I feel restriction. They are comfortable for trail running, backpacking and moderate climbing. Multiple pockets offer stowage for small items. There are belt loops and a zipper-andsnap fly area instead of a drawstring at the waist. The fit is true to size and looks pro. People will see you’re a serious hiker in these tight-fitting leggings. But Fjallraven eased back on the definition of tights with the Abisko. They fit my legs closely, but not “tight,” despite the name. The result is a comfortable pair of pants that perform for hiking, running, and activities even more extreme. Just be sure you’re ready for the callouts referencing style and a retro look as you sport these paneled, zippered, purely Scandinavian hiking tights heading down the trail.

ASPEN UNTUCKED
by JILL BEATHARD
No visit home would be complete without a ski day with this year’s Aspen socialite (left); and still on top (below).
YES, YOU CAN GO HOME AGAIN SITTING AROUND the table on the ranch in Texas, I try to keep up as my uncles fill my mom in on the talk of the town back in my family’s Ohio hometown. Both of my parents were born and raised there, with roots that stretch back generations. My family’s name is plastered on business signs all over town. Everyone I’ve ever met there knows JILL my parents, or my BEATHARD grandparents, or is in some fashion distantly related to me — yup. Despite never having lived there myself, it has always felt like my true home. We’re having a mini family reunion in Texas as I’m home on spring break from law school and several of the “Beathard boys” drove in to go hunting with my dad. When they get to talking around the dinner table, I recognize a lot of the names, even of people I can’t remember meeting, because their stories live in infamy in my family’s folklore. I realize I’ve been looking for that all my life. That “sense of community,” that abstract concept I heard over and over again at public meetings in Aspen and Snowmass
Village without really appreciating what it meant. Little did I know I was living and creating it right then. I would still argue that “community” isn’t easy to define, much less create with anything made out of brick or mortar. For me last weekend, it was the feeling of arriving in town with very few plans and bumping into just about everybody I know at the office, at the bar or on the mountain. It was feeling like more of a VIP than the actual VIPs at the World Cup tent, and catching up on all the
latest news from what’s going on with this year’s elections to what the kids are up to. Driving into Snowmass Village, I was amazed to see that so many things I used to write about — the roundabout, Base Village, new restaurants — are or soon will be coming to fruition. Community exists in a lot of places. It certainly existed where my parents grew up. For some people, their church is their community. For others, it’s their running club. We have a community in the Sturm College of
Law, where we all spend the whole day in the same building: eating lunch in the forum, studying in the library and exercising in the gym across the street. (We literally have lockers — might as well call it Sturm High.) Aspen is probably unique among small-town communities, though, in how accepting it is. Our code of conduct is simple: Do what you want, just don’t cause any harm. It helps if you like to ski, but if not, you can still meet us for après, and there’s plenty of other things to do anyway. We take all kinds, and in fact it is the diversity of homeland, talent, wealth and age group that constitutes the Aspen demographic. No wonder it’s so hard to leave. I felt that a lot when I came back last weekend, and it was incredibly difficult this time to pull myself away. But if my parents can maintain a connection to London, Ohio, 30 years later, then I’m pretty sure Aspen, with its ever-open arms, can be there for me. Jill Beathard is the former editor of the Snowmass Sun. She is now in her first year as a law student at the University of Denver. Email her at jill.beathard@gmail.com.

WINEINK
TIME TO THINK AND DRINK PINK ROSÉ SEASON IS NEARLY UPON US ...
MY FAVORITE T WEET of the week came not from the White House or Congress, and it had nothing to do with health care or unmasking. No, my favorite tweet of the week appeared last Monday, the first day of spring, as a retweet of an Instagram post (I think I got that digital path right) from Wineman KELLY J. Bobby Stuckey. It HAYES read, “Today is spring equinox also known as the official start date of Rosé Season.” It was a missive that may have arrived a bit early, as snow still sits on the decks of many of our homes. But nonetheless it was an unabashed celebration of sun and the seasons to come, when rosé will once again be our wine of choice. AMERICA TURNS PINK
Over the past decade, one of the great stories in American wine has been the rise in the consumption of rosé. Once considered a light, regional wine style best enjoyed on a hot afternoon on the coast of France, or perhaps before dining in a Sicilian seaside village, rosé is now a summer staple for wine lovers. There are a plethora of reasons for the growth of the category. Start with the premise that it was overdue. In a world where people are craving lighter styles of dry wines that are generally a bit lower in alcohol, fresh, young rosé wines are a perfect fit. And, when you combine that refreshing style with the beauty of the range of pink-hued wines that reflect the summer sun, you have magic in a glass. For winemakers, the beauty has to do with economics. Rosé can be, and is, made from just about any red grape. And because it is released shortly after harvest and rarely sees extended aging, winemakers can reap the profits quickly from one season to the next. For producers who are used to releasing red wines years after they are harvested, made, and aged, there is a benefit to making a wine that they can sell quickly, freeing up space and resources in their wineries for the next vintage.
10
A S P E N T I M E S W E E K LY
F
This also allows the wines to be sold inexpensively to consumers. Of course there are premium priced rosés, including those of Miraval (made by Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Marc Perrin, and no, the winery is not on the market despite the divorce), or the extravagantly packaged Domaines Ott, whose wines can range over $25 a bottle. But a perfectly good import or domestic rosé can be purchased in the $10- $15 range. A steal. While traditionally in the south of France and the Southern Rhône, rosé is made from blends of grenache, syrah or mourvedre, today you will find global winemakers who make rosé from other red grapes, including pinot noir, cabernet franc or zinfandel. The Italians make Rosato, their pink wines from the regional grapes in their neighborhoods (think sangiovese in Tuscany or nebbiolo in Piedmonte). In Spain, Rosado is often produced from garnacha or tempranillo. And let’s not forget the rosé Champagne from France that is made by using the color of the pinot noir grape skins in blends with chardonnay. In America, rosé has become a favorite for consumers due to its versatility as both a quaffer on its own and as a wine to pair with the foods of summer. The acidity and structure of a good rosé can transport you to a place where the breeze blows, the sun shines, the seafood is fresh and life is, well, sublime. THE WINEMAN COMETH
So I used the description “Wineman” in my introduction of Stuckey, much like the phrase that Hawaiian’s use, “Waterman,” to describe someone like Laird Hamilton. It connotes someone who is deeply, passionately and completely into water, or in Bobby’s case, wine. As a member of the Court of Master Sommeliers, he has gone on to create, along with partner Lachlan MackinnonPatterson, Frasca Food and Wine in Boulder, one of America’s top wine destinations. Coincidently, Frasca last week received a James Beard nomination for “Outstanding Restaurant” in America. And he has become a champion for the wines of Italy, especially those from the Friuli-
Mar ch 30 - Apr il 5 , 2017
Nothing says spring — or summer — like a refreshing glass of rosé.
Venezia Giulia region, where he has produced and imported wines under the Scarpetta label The second part of that spring tweet/post from Stuckey heralded the American arrival of his rosé made from the Italian nero d’avolo grape, noting “Our Squadra Rosato lands across the US today. Enjoy.” Bobby and the boys have made a rosé with a label that pays homage to their love of cycling. Sounds like the perfect wine after a long ride. Over the next few months, you will see an ocean of stories about America’s growing passion for pink wines, but just remember, you saw the first one here. In the spring. Thanks to tweet from a Wineman. Kelly J. Hayes lives in the soon-to-be-designated appellation of Old Snowmass. He can be reached at malibukj@aol.com.

FOOD MATTERS FOOD MATTERS
TASTE THE RAINBOW
A LIFETIME OF NUTRITARIAN WISDOM AT PYRAMID BISTRO NO OFFENSE to chefs who sear steaks, but the prettiest plates are composed largely of fruits and vegetables. Not only that— research confirms that foods in rainbow shades tend to be highest in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. Nutritarian cuisine, as it’s called, aims to pack as much plantpowered good stuff (phytochemicals) AMANDA RAE into a finished dish as possible. “Every color identifies a different nutrient,” says Martin Oswald, chef-proprietor of Pyramid Bistro, “the country’s first nutritarian restaurant,” according to Dr. Joel Fuhrman in his bestselling “Eat to Live Cookbook” (HarperOne, 2013). “The allium family has a totally different phytonutrient content than butternut squash,” Oswald continues. “Mushrooms, something brown, will be different from an onion. And a variety of colors is much more appealing.” A glance at Oswald’s Instagram page — a vibrant mosaic of leafy green salads, hand-pressed vegetable patties, and berries galore — proves the point: nutritarian dishes are dazzling. The philosophy, which maintains that one’s health may be predicted by nutrient intake divided by calorie consumption, was conceived by Fuhrman more than a decade ago in his bestselling book, “Eat to Live” (2003, Little, Brown and Company). Since then the boardcertified family physician and prolific medical researcher, who specializes in preventing and reversing disease through nutrition, developed the ANDI (Aggregate Nutrient Density Index) scores seen on labels at Whole Foods Markets. With six New York Times bestsellers

F
to his name, Fuhrman has sold more than three million books. “The genius behind it — and the reason why tens of thousands of people follow it — is to look at what has the most nutrition,” Oswald explains. “It’s a breakthrough in nutritional science.” Despite its virtuosic roots, the nutritarian lifestyle does not prohibit consumption of animal products. Instead, such proteins are used sparingly so that other whole foods — produce, nuts and seeds, legumes, grains — take center stage. “A vegan diet has nothing to do with a nutritarian diet,” cautions Oswald, who features fish, shrimp, chicken, duck, and yes, tofu, on his menu at Pyramid Bistro. (Red meat is excluded, he says, in deference to vegetarian predecessor Explore Bistro.) “(Fuhrman) discovered how a vegan diet doesn’t necessarily lead to health. They were eating junk food! You need the more nutrient-dense foods.” Though Oswald worked in posh, macrobiotic health resorts in his native Austria in the 1980s — “Back then, we didn’t know about micronutrients… whole grains were the name of the game,” Oswald shares — he began this journey in earnest seven years ago, before opening Pyramid Bistro above Explore Booksellers in December 2010. “(Dr. Fuhrman) was my idol — I had read his books,” Oswald says. “I lost 35 pounds in two months,” after leaving Syzygy and Ute City restaurants, where he was executive chef for 15 years. “I did it with the nutritarian lifestyle. It’s not so much about weight loss, though. Can you bring cholesterol and hypertension down, get off medication? That’s where it gets really fascinating. Everything he talks about is scientifically proven.”
Mar ch 30 - Apr il 5 , 2017
Pyramid Bistro found immediate success among health-conscious Aspenites. Just as Fuhrman promotes “GBOMBS — greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, and berries, which boast powerful anti-cancer and anti-fat storage effects — Oswald relies heavily on these ingredients, using minimal oil, across seasonal menus. It wasn’t long before Oswald found himself cooking for a very special guest: Fuhrman himself. “He was smitten,” Oswald says of the doc’s serendipitous 2011 visit. Thus began their professional collaboration, starting with the first-ever Nutritarian Festival at Pyramid Bistro in 2011, attended by 300 people. Later Oswald contributed a few nutritarian recipes to Fuhrman’s “Eat to Live Cookbook” (Lemon Cauliflower Risotto; Arugula Pesto). And he’s featured regularly at seminars and cooking demonstrations, including the Dr. Fuhrman Culinary Getaway: Perfect the Art of Nutritarian Cooking in Newport Beach, Calif. (May 21-27). Now Dr. Fuhrman returns to Aspen to reprise a popular
wellness ski retreat (April 2-8) launched here last year as a fundraiser for heart disease and diabetes investigation at his Nutritional Research Foundation. “They come to the restaurant— about 40 people last year — and every day I cook dinner: eight different dishes with sauces,” Oswald says. “Dr. Fuhrman talks about the science behind it.” For his part, Oswald has contributed to the research. In 2014 he worked with Dr. Laurie Marbas at the Grand River Hospital and Medical Center in Rifle, Colo., during a month-long trial involving 29 overweight individuals with myriad health issues. Oswald cooked nutritarian lunch and dinner daily for participants, 26 of whom completed the study. “We had a 27.7 percent cholesterol loss in 30 days— that’s huge!” Oswald says. “Five people off hypertension; three people out of prediabetes. An average eight-pound weight loss. One man went from 280 (pounds) down to 200. Fantastic results.” Oswald’s biggest takeaway: A person doesn’t need to commit
by AMANDA RAE
to a nutritarian plan for a month or even two weeks to see results. “(We saw that) you can lower your blood cholesterol by three points after the very first day.” Armed with this knowledge, Oswald consulted on the 2016 launch of Bolay, a healthconscious Florida restaurant opened by a founder of Outback Steakhouse, who was inspired by a visit to Pyramid Bistro. In April the group opens its fourth location. “It’s not justified to call it restrictive,” Oswald says, stressing that nutritarianism is not a fad. “A whole plant-based diet does not allow for any meat or fish at all. And restrictive would indicate that you’re restricting how much you eat. The nutritarian diet asks you to eat one pound of cooked and one pound of fresh vegetables daily. That’s an unbelievable amount of food!” Pyramid Bistro will remain open for regular dinner guests — reservations recommended — during Fuhrman’s retreat week (April 2-8). “Every day is something different,” Oswald says. “Forbidden rice ‘neatballs’ with yuzu-carrot glaze and broccoli… It’s all about elements with different textures. Although (Fuhrman) does not advocate a totally plant-based diet, when we do the retreats we stick with (that). These people seek inspiration to go into clean-as-can-be diet.” Additionally, Dr. Fuhrman will lecture at Paepcke Auditorium on Saturday, April 8, at 7 p.m. Tickets are $25 and available at the door or by contacting the Nutritional Research Foundation at 888-5114443 or nutritionalresearch.org.

VOYAGES
DESTINATION | PORTUGAL
PORTO: WINE, HILLS AND SUNSETS IN PORTUGAL’S SECOND CITY I WAS LOST, looking for port wine caves dug into hills across the bridge from Porto. I trudged up a hill and rounded a blind corner, sidling against a stone wall to avoid tour buses flying toward me, when I stumbled on the highlight of my day: a nearly empty tasting room and private wine-cellar tour. It was a reminder that in Portugal’s second city, everything cool seems to be right around the corner, or more likely, just up a hill. Porto’s historic core is set upon two hills, with the rejuvenated downtown between them spilling down to the Douro River. A pedestrian promenade lined with medieval merchant houses and cafe tables runs underneath the two-level Luis I Bridge, which joins the upper and lower sections of Porto and the city of Gaia. On one side is the twindomed Porto Cathedral, on the other is the circular Monastery of Serra do Pilar. When the sun sets, the colors of the white monuments, stone towers and terra cotta roofs blend together,

and the entire city glows orange. It’s one of the world’s most spectacular cityscapes. Porto is small enough to walk past the highlights in half a day, but I spent nearly a week hoofing it around, taking in one stunning sunset after the next. Lookout points are labeled on tourist maps as miradouros. Each is unique, though none is a match for Praia da Luz, or beach of light. A historic trolley runs from the center to where the river flows into the ocean in the Foz do Douro neighborhood. A short walk north through a seaside park brings you the rocky beach, where I nursed a glass of vinho verde, Portugal’s light, dry white wine, on a plush lounge chair. The sun dipped into the Atlantic where medieval maps once depicted fire-breathing sea serpents. Fortunately, there’s more to Porto than postcard-worthy pictures, with more to come. The thwack of hammers echoing off the tiled facades on nearly every street heralds a tourist boom. Already, the downtown around Avenida dos Aliados, which was seedy as recently as five years ago, has new life.
Mar ch 30 - Apr il 5 , 2017
Concept stores run by collectives of crafters have opened along Rua do Almada. Workshop Popup combines four stores into one for cork handbags, locally designed clothes and handmade souvenirs actually worth buying. It also offers private cooking lessons for a bargain at a show kitchen in the back. For nightlife, the string of bars and restaurants around Rua da Galeria de Paris has a range of choices, from sophisticated to rowdy. The bars get busy almost every night of the week but often not until 11 p.m. or later. One of Porto’s best-known sites is Livraria Lello, a bookshop in a grand neo-Gothic 1906 building on Rua das Carmelitas that features a massive curved staircase, elaborate painted plaster ceiling and a stained-glass skylight bearing the Latin phrase “Decos in Labore” (dignity in work). There’s a fee to enter (tickets are 5.5 euros online), but the fee entitles you to a discount on purchases. I waited until the end of my trip to dive into port wines, those supple, fortified dessert wines the city is known for. After
dinner at a friend’s apartment, my hosts, an architect and an owner of a design studio, pulled out a white port made by Taylor that’s typically served chilled as an aperitif. They recommended visiting Taylor’s tasting room, one of the biggest, and Croft, the oldest. They also urged me to stay away from the expensive, flashy options along the riverfront. It was while searching for Croft the next day that I stumbled on Churchill’s, which isn’t listed on most maps of the port circuit. Their wine was rich and full, and slightly less sweet than others. A guide led me through the “cave,” a warehouse dug into the granite hill with a steady temperature in the 60s F (15-21 C). Hundreds of oak barrels were stacked four high, aging port for up to 40 years. Turns out the British commercialized a product the Portuguese had been making for centuries, which explains the Anglophile names. At Croft, founded in 1588, the charming tasting room with tables and stools made from wine barrels led into an impressive cellar with stone arches and casks the size of small houses. Taylor was the most commercial of the three, but the 10-euro entry fee includes a threewine sample and self-guided audio tour, so it’s a good choice for a novice with time for only one stop. Sufficiently buzzed, I asked a clerk to recommend somewhere for a quick bite before rushing off to the airport. The five-star Yeatman Hotel hit the mark with a cheese plate, a glass of dry Douro Valley red and an expansive patio overlooking the city. It was just around the corner, and just in time for sunset.

IF YOU GO... PORTO, PORTUGAL: http://www.visitporto.travel. Located three hours by train from Lisbon. Stay near the Clerigos Tower in the Vitoria neighborhood, the center of nightlife and only a 15-minute walk from the higherpriced tourist spots near the river. Also, try francesinha, a Porto specialty that’s like a meatier croque monsieur. Cafe Santiago near the Coliseu music venue serves up a gut-buster drenched in a tangy beer sauce, and locals like the francesinha at Cufra on Avenida da Boavista.

FROM ASPEN, WITH LOVE
GUNNER’S LIBATIONS
TAKING FLIGHT Last week, when it seemed like spring had sprung in Aspen, I was thinking of a deck tour for this Libations column. But
by JEANNE MCGOVERN
STILL THIRSTY? Join us on a video tour of “flights” around town at https://vimeo.com/191233492
when I awoke to the slop outside Tuesday — and looked at the weather map calling for variable conditions through the next week — my mind wandered back to a cozier drink tour. In the fall, Aspen Times photographer Anna Stonehoues hit the town in search of great flights, from beer and wine to mezcal and whiskey. Here’s a foursome of sips to whet your whistle. At the Limelight Lounge, which every fall retires its sangria flight in exchange for more wintry offerings of beer and whiskey; the beers we sampled out of the ski-shaped flight boards ranged from Aspen Brewery’s Brown Bear Ale to Escape to Colorado IPA to Stella Artois (you can choose any four beers on tap or in a can for your flight), while the whiskeys we sipped were all Colorado-based (Stranahan’s, Woody Creek Distillers, Leopold’s and Breckenridge). Upping the ante a bit was the Hotel Jerome’s The Living Room, where we drank in the good life with a fine flight of Glenmorangie Scotch (La Santa, Quinta Ruban and Nectar D’Or, paired with citrus, chocolate and Luxardo cherry), followed by a trip around the world with a unique and luscious Madeira flight. Of course there are plenty of other flights to be found in Aspen — Aspen Brewing Co. and HOPS Culture immediately come to mind — but the fun of enjoying a good flight cannot be overdone. And soon, we will be sipping full-fledged cocktails on sun-drenched decks and patios. Cheers!

Ones to watch at Aspen Shortsfest 2017 by Andrew Travers
THE WORLD IS COMING TO THE MOUNTAINS on the big screen in 64 films from 31 countries at Aspen Shortsfest, now in its 26th year. As cinephiles have come to expect, the festival — running April 4 to 9 in Aspen and Carbondale — includes a diverse constellation of stories and styles, from drama and comedy to kid-friendly animation and otherworldly experimental films and revelatory documentaries. These movies, all under 40 minutes, are the best that the short form has to offer. “There’s something freeing about having these restrictions placed on you with the format, because you really can just get to the story,” says Shortsfest director of programming Kathleen McInnis. “The filmmakers in the short form can embrace the restrictions as an advantage and use that to tell the story.” The legion of Shortsfest alumni who’ve sprung from here to the heights of Hollywood include this year’s Oscar winner for best director Damien Chazelle and leading auteurs like Jason Reitman, Jean-Marc Vallée and Sarah Polley. The emerging filmmakers whose films have been selected from the 4,000 submissions for Shortsfest 2017 are the next generation of great cinematic storytellers. Bringing those artists and their work together with industry leaders and audiences in Aspen, McInnis said, is the Shortsfest mission. “There are three parts of the puzzle that are equally important: the artist, in this case the filmmaker; the industry, because that’s the vehicle by which the art gets to the world; and the audience,” McInnis says. “All three of those are equally important and valuable.”

These are some of the standout films to watch for at the festival. Pick up The Aspen Times for daily coverage of additional films and filmmakers throughout Shortsfest: ‘LOU’ Tuesday, April 4, 8:15 p.m. Paepcke Auditorium Sunday, April 9, 1 p.m. Wheeler Opera House; 7:30 p.m. Crystal Theatre
The latest animated delight from Pixar gives us a toy-stealing bully, a lost-and-found box and a crowdpleasing seven minutes. After its premiere at SXSW in March, the film earned raves and even some very, very early Oscar buzz (Vanity Fair’s “Little Gold Men” podcast singled it out as an early pick for next year’s Animated Short prize). “Lou” will be released in theaters in June, playing before “Cars 3” around the world.
‘AFTER THE SMOKE’ Wednesday, April 5, 5:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House Saturday, April 8, 5 p.m. Crystal Theatre
An elegiac portrait of the rodeo riding tradition, “After the Smoke” is set in Australia but may as well be about Colorado or Texas. It’s shot in a lush black-and-white that captures the bucking broncos, the crowds and carnival atmosphere of the rodeo, along with the rural decay and the paramedics carrying stretchers. Its meditative narrator talks about riding with an aching regret over the deadly risks and rich culture of the sport. The nine-minute film is getting its North American premiere in Aspen.
‘MIXTAPE MARAUDERS’ Wednesday, April 5, 8:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House Saturday, April 8, 7:30 p.m. Crystal Theatre
This smart and sweet love letter to music nerd-dom follows a pair of young stoners as they talk about the art of making a “mixtape” CD. “I can’t say things with words,” one of the boys confesses as he attempts to make the perfect mixtape for a girl he likes. “All I can do is outsource my feelings with pop music and Swans songs.” Anybody who has ever made a tape or CD or playlist for somebody they care about will fall for this film, which runs 17 minutes and includes a killer sixsong soundtrack. It’s making its world premiere at Shortsfest.
‘BARTLEBY’ Thursday, April 6, 5:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House
Everybody reads Herman Melville’s “Bartleby the Scrivener” in high school. And just about everybody who goes on to work in an office is haunted by it later. Co-directors Laura Naylor and Kristen Kee have reimagined the classic short story for the 21st century in an inspired stop-motion animation adaptation. Here, Bartleby, the office drone who “prefers not to,” stages his resistance amid a world of street protests, smartphones and dating apps on contemporary Wall Street. Thursday night’s screening is its world premiere.

‘NOTHING EVER REALLY ENDS’ Friday, April 7, 5:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House
A bittersweet triptych of bad romance, this brilliantly written Norwegian short follows a hip young couple — he’s a musician, she’s an actress — over the course of three New Year’s Eves. Annually as the fireworks go off and the Champagne pops, they break up and make up and break up again. They grow and they regress, they fight and they fall in — but never quite out of — love over the course of 23 roller-coaster minutes.
‘ALL EXCHANGES FINAL’ Friday, April 7, 5:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House
A weird, wise and hilarious high-concept comedy that, in its 29 minutes, touches on birth, death, parenthood, sibling rivalry and love, “All Exchanges Final” also boasts a gem of a cameo from Thomas Lennon (Lt. Dangle from “Reno 911!”). Dom (played by Ava Cash of “You’re the Worst”) goes to visit her comatose sister in the hospital, with her newborn in tow, only to discover the strange bureaucracy of the Office of Soul Exchange, which might be able to bring her sister back. This odd and poignant short is having its world premiere at Shortsfest.
“There’s something freeing about having these restrictions placed on you with the format, because you really can just get to the story.” –Kathleen McInnis, Shortsfest ‘SCHOOLYARD BLUES’ & ‘INTO THE BLUE’ Friday, April 7, 8:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House
Both of these gripping films take place in worlds almost entirely without adults, ruled by the oftenskewed logic and harsh social terms of childhood. “Schoolyard Blues,” from Sweden, follows a boy on his first day of school, before which his outcast older brother attempts to toughen him up and prepare him for the schoolyard. In “Into the Blue,” a CroatianSlovenian-Swedish production, a 13-year-old girl is caught in a tense power struggle among friends as they hang out on seaside cliffs at Lokrum on a hot, seemingly harmless summer afternoon.

‘EYES OF EXODUS’ Saturday, April 8, 2:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House Sunday, April 9, 5 p.m. Crystal Theatre
The latest of several short documentaries to offer deep insight into the Syrian civil war and refugee crisis, following stand-outs like “The White Helmets,” “4.1 Miles” and “Watani: My Homeland.” The 28-minute “Eyes of Exodus” focuses its sensitive lens on the idyllic Greek island Kastellorizo as hundreds of Syrians arrive daily, fleeing the war. The film offers a moving portrait of the refugees, along with the stark contrast between those who welcome them and those who shun them.
‘(le) REBOUND’ Saturday, April 8, 8:30 p.m. Wheeler Opera House
Astoundingly clever and refreshingly bold, “(le) Rebound” is 19 minutes of cinematic genius. It gives us Claudia, a heartbroken American woman on the rebound. She meets a hipster boy, Milos, in a bookstore and heads to France with him for a hedonistic stay at an artists’ retreat. With an arch narrator guiding us along the way, Claudia falls into an X-rated comedy of errors with a French lothario, his wild photographer consort and the ever-disappointing Milos. Saturday is the film’s world premiere.
‘THE WORLD’S MIDDLEST FISH’ Sunday, April 9, 1 p.m. Wheeler Opera House
When little girl Ingeborg enters a fishing contest in her seaside town, her catch doesn’t win the trophy for being the biggest or the smallest. But, it is the “middlest,” which makes Ingeborg and her fish international media sensations in this charming and whimsical animated short from Norway. “The World’s Middlest Fish” is one of six films in Sunday afternoon’s family-friendly program. atravers@aspentimes.com

IT’S ONLY BEEN A WEEK or so since the seasons changed yet it’s already spring feverish on the social calendar. Earlier this month, the Aspen chapter of Room to Read hosted a reception at the Tesla store downtown, welcoming friends and supporters for drinks and hors d’oeuvres. The international organization, focused on literacy and gender equality in education, works with communities and local governments across Asia and Africa to develop literacy skills for primary school children. Room to Read also supports girls to complete secondary school and develop the life skills they’ll need to succeed in school and beyond. Aspen chapter board members Susan Lodge and Lisa Baker shared an important milestone

Main St., Suite 104, Aspen CO 81611-1991, aferguson@hollandhart.com; mwinokur@hollandhart.com. Name of structures: Moment of Truth Water Supply and Steeplechase Mid-Mountain Water Supply. Previous decrees: Original decree: Case No. 94CW306; Water Division 5, decree entered on March 24, 1997 (“94CW306 Decree”). Subsequent decrees awarding findings of diligence: 10CW76, Water Division 5, decree entered February 5, 2011; 03CW56, Water Division 5, decree entered March 31, 2004 (“Diligence Decrees”). Moment of Truth Water Supply: (i) Legal Description: The original legal description contained in the 94CW306 Decree is: The water supply is located in the SE¼ of the SW¼ of Section 22, Township 10 South, Range 85 West of the 6th P.M., Pitkin County, Colorado, at a point North 75°0’ West, 3,150 feet from the Northeast corner of Section 27, Township 10 South, Range 85 West of the 6th P.M., Pitkin County, Colorado. Applicant has confirmed that this legal description is correct. Subsequent to entry of the 94CW306 Decree the legal description was converted to coordinates from the section lines. The Diligence Decrees contain only the converted legal description, which Applicant has determined is incorrect. The correct legal description utilizing the current digital BLM section lines is: SE¼ of the SW¼ of Section 22, Township 10 South, Range 85 West, 6th P.M., Pitkin County, Colorado, at a point 815 feet north from the South section line and 2,215 feet east from the West section line.

Application as Exhibit A. (ii) Source: Springs tributary to Maroon Creek, tributary to the Roaring Fork River, tributary to the Colorado River. (iii) Appropriation date: August 5, 1994. (iv) Amount: 0.10 c.f.s. (50 gallons per minute), conditional. (v) Uses: Domestic, industrial, irrigation and commercial; all industrial uses being limited to those associated with the construction, operation and maintenance of the restaurant, lift and vehicle maintenance facilities and all uses being restricted to the mid-mountain portions of the Aspen Highlands Ski Area. Steeplechase Mid-Mountain Water Supply (i) Legal Description: The original legal description contained in the 94CW306 Decree is: The water supply is located in the SW¼ of the NE¼ of Section 27, Township 10 South, Range 85 West of the 6th P.M., Pitkin County, Colorado, at a point South 35°0’ West, 2,800 feet from the Northeast corner of said Section 27. Applicant has confirmed that this legal description is correct. Subsequent to entry of the 94CW306 Decree the legal description was converted to coordinates from the section lines. The Diligence Decrees contain only the converted legal description, which Applicant has determined is incorrect. In addition, due to a typographical error in the final decree in Case No. 10CW76 the water right is erroneously identified as being located in Section 22, rather than in Section 27. The correct legal description utilizing the current digital BLM section lines is: SW¼ of the NE¼ of Section 27, Township 10 South, Range 85 West, 6th P.M., Pitkin County, Colorado, at a point 2,325 feet south from the North section line and 1,390 feet west from the East section line.

No other change is requested hereby. The decreed location of the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1 is described above. The legal description of the actual location of the point of diversion of the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1, to which the decreed location should be changed, is: SE1/4 SE1/4 Section 20, Township 10 South, Range 84 West of the 6th P.M., 992 feet from the South section line and 862 feet from the East section line.

A map depicting the decreed and actual (changed) location of the point of diversion of the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1 is attached to the Application as Figure 1. No injury: The only change requested herein is to correct the legal description of the point of diversion to reflect the actual, intended location of the structure on the Applicant’s property. The requested change of water right changes the point of diversion to a location downstream of the decreed location, and thus will not injuriously affect the owner or user of a vested water right or decreed conditional water right. Claim for Change of Appropriative Right of Exchange: As a result of the change of legal description of point of diversion of the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1, as set forth above, Applicant also requests to change the legal description of one of the upstream termini of the decreed appropriative right of exchange (being the upstream terminus that is located at the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1). None of the other upstream termini or the downstream termini of the exchange is changed hereby, and no other change is requested hereby. The decreed location of the subject upstream terminus at the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1 is described above. The legal description of the actual location of the subject upstream terminus at the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1, to which the decreed location of said upstream terminus should be changed, is: SE1/4 SE1/4 Section 20, Township 10 South, Range 84 West of the 6th P.M., 992 feet from the South section line and 862 feet from the East section line. No injury: The only change requested herein is to correct the legal description of the upstream exchange terminus at the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1, in accordance with the change of water right requested above. The requested change moves the subject upstream terminus to a location that is downstream of the decreed location, thereby shortening the exchange reach. Thus, the requested change will not injuriously affect the owner or user of a vested water right or decreed conditional water right. Name and address of owner of the land upon which any new diversion or storage structure or modification to any existing diversion or storage structure or existing storage pool is or will be constructed or upon which water is or will be stored: Applicant. Wherefore, the Applicant respectfully requests this Court to determine, adjudge, and decree: (i) a change of water right for the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1 to change the legal description of the point of diversion to its actual location; and (ii) a change of legal description of the subject upstream terminus of the appropriative right of exchange to reflect the changed legal description of the First Enlargement of the Lewis Warren Creek Ditch No. 1.

The estimated heating demand for selected hotels and lodges in Aspen in approximately 231 billion BTU per year. Much or all of the heating demand for these hotels and lodges is expected to be met through heat exchange with the bedrock ground water system using the Aspen Geothermal Wells. Aspen will use the well for either withdrawal or reinjection purposes, or both, as provided in the decree entered in Case No. 2008CW83. ii. Aspen Geothermal Well Number 6: Municipal geothermal uses, namely reinjection of geothermal fluids withdrawn from the Aspen Geothermal Wells Numbers 1 through 5 back into the aquifer. 4. Detailed outline of what has been done toward completions or for completion of the appropriations and application of water to beneficial use as conditionally decreed, including expenditures: The water rights decreed in Case No. 2008CW83 were appropriated to provide a legal water supply for the development of municipal geothermal uses to heat buildings, residences and sidewalks in or near Aspen by use of a nonconsumptive, closed-loop system that withdraws water from the geothermal bedrock aquifer, delivers the water through a geothermal heat exchange system, and reinjects the water into the same geothermal aquifer after use in the geothermal system. These water rights are a part of Aspen’s Canary Initiative program to achieve its goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, including by reducing greenhouse gas emissions from existing buildings by 20% and providing 100% of the Aspen’s electricity from renewable energy sources. During this diligence period, Aspen explored the geothermal resources in the geothermal bedrock aquifer, including appropriating and expending approximately $37,500 for a test well program. As part of this test well program, Aspen retained Dan’s Water Well and Pump Services to drill a geothermal test wel1/monitoring hole that was later converted to a monitoring well under permit no. 295453 to collect water temperature, composition and pressure data, to determine the depth and confirm the top of the Leadville Formation, to assess the local drilling conditions and geothermal gradient, to estimate the potential yield of the Leadville aquifer, to characterize the groundwater chemistry, and to determine the local piezometric head; and it retained Rocky Mountain Water Consulting, LLC, to prepare an analysis and study of the drilling, construction, and geophysical logging from the geothermal test well. During this diligence period, Aspen also completed other steps necessary to achieve its greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals established in the Canary Initiative, including partnering with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to obtain technical assistance in identifying projects to help Aspen meets its renewable energy goals; entering into a new hydroelectric contract with the Tri-County Water Conservancy District; and entering into a supplemental wind energy contract with Municipal Energy Agency of Nebraska. Aspen also defended these conditional water rights against applications filed by others in cases where the City has determined that injury to its water rights could occur in the absence of appropriate terms and conditions. During this diligence period, the City has expended approximately $597,000 in attorney fees, of which a portion was expended specifically in opposition to water court applications in order to protect and defend the City’s water rights, including, without limitation, Case Nos. 10CW147, 10CW286, 11CW97, 11CW198, 13CW3108, 14CW3096, 14CW3176, 14CW3179, 15CW3014, 15CW3050, 15CW3052, 15CW3053, 15CW3110, 15CW3116, 16CW3013, and 16CW3113. 5. Names and addresses of owners or reputed owners of the land upon which any new diversion structure or storage structure, or modification to any existing diversion or storage structure is or will be constructed or upon which water is or will be stored, including any modification to the existing storage pool: The Aspen Geothermal Wells Numbers 1 through 6 will be located on property owned by Aspen. The water will be placed to beneficial use in selected business and residences and to heat sidewalks, in or near the Aspen city limits.

BOOK REVIEW
‘CONVICTION’
NOTEWORTHY
JULIA DAHL’S examination of the myriad communities that exist — sometimes not so harmoniously — in Brooklyn, New York, fuels her third excellent novel featuring freelance reporter Rebekah Roberts. In “Conviction,” Dahl effectively uses the backdrop of the Crown Heights riots that pitted the Hasidic and black communities against each other during 1991 that had ramifications for decades. Racism and anti-Semitism are smoothly woven into the plot as Dahl shows how a violent nature can be formed and that ethical journalism matters and can change lives. Rebekah agrees to look into the case of DeShawn Perkins, who has been in prison for 16 years in the death of his foster parents and foster sister in 1992. DeShawn claims he’s innocent, but Rebekah knows that

shows the drudgery of real reporting — slogging through court files and paperwork, interviewing those who remember the murders — and how this sleuthing for facts can pay off. Dahl proved her skills as a strong storyteller in her debut, “Invisible City,” which won several awards and was nominated for an Edgar. “Conviction” illustrates how her talents continue to grow. A formidable view of a changing neighborhood, believable characters and intriguing twists that keep the reader guessing the outcome until the satisfying finale meld for the ubersmart “Conviction.”

“Conviction” Julia Dahl Minotaur, 2017 344 words, hardcover
almost every convicted murderer says that. Before the murders, DeShawn had been rebelling against his very loving foster parents — a situation well-known in the community and at the tight-knit church the family attended. The pastor and several of his parishioners were quick to blame DeShawn, who says he was coerced into confessing and that a policeman took a crack addict’s identification without questioning it. “Conviction” easily moves between 1992, showing a neighborhood still reeling from the tensions that sparked the riots, and the present with a gentrifying Crown Heights community. Rebekah’s investigation leads to ex-cop Saul Katz, a former Orthodox Jew who is now involved with the reporter’s mother, politicians and area landowners. Dahl succinctly
