THE UPDATE

Take a trip back to the early ’90s to-night with mellow pop rockers Toad the Wet Sprocket.

The group is playing a free show at the Ford Amphitheater for the second to last Hot Summer Nights concert of the season.

Named in honor of a sketch by the Monty Python comedy troupe, this 4-piece band of Santa Barbara, Calif.,

high school cronies came to be known as Toad the Wet Sprocket in 1986. To this day, their mellow, melodic folk-pop sound made them one of the most successful alternative rock bands of the early 1990s.

Singer Glen Phillips, guitarist Todd Nichols, bassist Dean Dinning and drummer Randy Guss spent time honing their skills in area bars. Then, in 1988,

they entered a nearby studio and came out with their debut LP, “Bread and Cir-cus.” Recorded in justeight days and for a cost of $650, this inaugural recording was originally sold in Santa Barbara area record stores as a homemade cassette. While the band was recording their sec-ond album, “Pale” (16 days and $6,000) they caught the attention of the LA of-fices of Columbia Records.

After agreeing to the band’s request to reissue “Bread and Circus” only in its original form -- without any alterations or remixes – Columbia Records signed Toad the Wet Sprocket.

Again I’m reading about our county commissioners and a ballot question about increasing their term limit from two terms to three.

This is another example of government wasting the taxpayers time and money. The staff that have been directed by the board to finalize the ballot language, hopefully, have more important issues to deal with. If not, then maybe we have to much staff.

All taxpayer funded entities should be working on providing essential services and infrastructure in the most cost effective way possible. This ballot question does not qualify as an essential anything.

To my county commissioners and all government employees, stop wasting my time and money.

Vote Van Beek for Sheriff

I am honored to have an opportu-nity to stand up for a friend, James Van Beek, a man who would like to be, and should be, the next Sheriff of Eagle County.

I met James during the course of an investigation he was working on in Eagle County, while I was liv-ing there (a 20-year resident). Af-ter 9/11, I moved away, and James was already working in the Balkans helping build a police force in Ko-sovo. After about 3 ½ years there, he accepted an invitation to go Af-ghanistan and help establish a dem-ocratic police force. All this time, he’s been working overseas, so that his wife Carrie, Operations Manag-er for “Can Do Multiple Sclerosis” (formerly known as the Heuga Cen-

ter) and two young sons would be safe at home in Eagle County, and in the world at large. He did it be-cause that’s where he comes from. It’s what his family does: the right thing.

James impressed me the first time I met him, and since then, my re-spect for him has only grown. Over the years, I’ve been a fortunate re-cipient of photos he’s shared of the violence and conflict in Afghani-stan. It’s a tad more dangerous than Eagle County, if you don’t count a December with no snow. He’s the very first person I would turn to in a crisis.

I’m the first to admit that I find myself judging other people a doz-en times a day: by the clothes they wear, by the company they keep, and not what they say, but by what they do (and okay, shoes). I put a very high value on character and in-

tegrity. I’ve seen James respond to a variety of situations (always with knowledge and class), and heard his modest opinions on many subjects. I’ve found him to be open-minded, level-headed, down-to-earth, and very often funny. His seeming lack of ego is a rare find.

I believe James to be honest and incorruptible, and a wholly decent human being. He doesn’t just wish for a better world, he walks the walk. He takes positive steps to-ward the goal. He and his family have sacrificed for that goal. Every day. Imagine.

James always leaves things bet-ter and safer where he has been. His next stop should be as Sheriff of Eagle County.

The Eagle County Board of Com-missioners is expected to approve a new developer for Stratton Flats at today’s board meeting.

The project is located just off of Jules Drive in Gypsum. The coun-ty’s agreement with the previous developer required approval from the county for such a transfer.

After months of negotiations, the county has come to an agreement that will result in the transfer of the project to Stratton Flats Homes LLC, an entity created by the prin-cipals of the Pauls Corporation. The transfer will bring an influx of

new dollars to expedite completion of Stratton Flats. Loans previously made by Colorado Business Bank and the county will remain in the project and are to be repaid from sales of units.

The Pauls Corporation is bringing an additional $3.5 million in capital to the development.

“We believe Stratton Flats Homes LLC and the Pauls Corporation, with its 30 years of Colorado con-struction experience, brings the best opportunity for a successful completion to Stratton Flats,” said Commissioner Sara Fisher.

“We reviewed our options and felt moving forward with this arrange-ment provided the best opportunity

to ensure a viable project, put our locals back to work, and provide the best opportunity to protect the previous investments made by the county,” said Commissioner Peter Runyon.

In addition to a new developer, the project will have a new unit mix as well. Of the approximately 300 units, one third will be dedicated and restricted to local workers. The remainder will be listed as free mar-ket units. Previously, the project was required to provide two-thirds restricted units, half of which con-tained price cap restrictions. Under the new agreement, there will be no price cap restrictions on units at

The popular Hanging Lake Trail in Glenwood Canyon is scheduled to reopen Monday after being closed since early May for repairs. The $1.1 million repair project has given the trail a new boardwalk and rail-ing leading up the final section of the hike. Some stone work has also been completed around parts of the lake. White River National Forest public information officer Pat Thrasher estimates 1 million hikers had used the old boardwalk since it was installed in 1992. Work will continue after the trail reopens to divert natural debris that has been flowing into the lake. The trail will close again Sept. 17-19 so vol-unteers can make other improvements. The Hanging Lake Trail is one of the most popular recreation attractions along the I-70 corridor with more than 80,000 visitors annually.

RECREATION

Page 5: Document

Tuesday, August 17, 2010 Vail Mountaineer 5

It started with a small gathering of hardy men and women on a chill morning while the sun peeked out through the mountains and down the streets of Eagle. By 7 a.m. the group had grown to almost 40, with legend names like Jake Wells, John Klish, Courtney Gregory and Steve White leading. Some would be lost, some would turn and flee, but 15 would finish the bru-tal Hardscrable Humper.

Sunday’s Humper was a mountain bike epic that en-compassed the best of Eagle’s trails and arguably some of the best riding in the world. With 6,800 feet of climb-ing in just less than 40 miles, it verges on the ultra end of the scale, particularly as it was almost all off-road and most of that was the swooping, elegant lines that this valley has become well known for.

Larry Grossman one of the people behind the ride described the inspiration for the Humper

“What we have here is unique,” said Grossman. “Al-most every other big race has lots of roads. Here we can

ride almost completely off-road and 70 to 80 percent of that is singletrack.”

The terrain varied from cool, wooded hill sides with open fields of wild flowers at the peak of bloom, to the loose, dusty Gypsum tracks that slice into steep hill-sides. Much of the beautiful views could be absorbed during the 45 percent descent that is the Plunge or the 25 percent incline on the Upper Firebox Toad.

Grossman is careful to describe the idea of the Hard-scrable Humper as a group effort from local riders to show off what a great local resource we have. Jake Wells’ family, Linda and Tatum, manned an impromptu aid station at the mid point of the course while others left caches of food and water on the trails for riders. It was in no means an organized race, instead it was a gathering of like-minded bikers, a Gran Fondo group ride with some racing, others enjoying the atmosphere. It was something uniquely Eagle, an event almost en-tirely promoted by word of mouth and supported by the good will and efforts of the locals.

As Grossman said, “This shows how much soul this county has.”

While trying to get pregnant, a happily married woman realizes her life needs to go in a different direction and, after a painful divorce, takes off on a round-the-world journey in “Eat Pray Love,” based on the memoir by Elizabeth Gilbert.

Scott Pilgrim must defeat his new girlfriend’s seven evil ex-boyfriends in order to win her heart in “Scott Pilgram vs. the World.”

Nic and Jules (Annette Bening and Julianne Moore) are married and share a cozy suburban Southern Cali-fornia home with their teenage children, Joni and Laser (Mia Wasikowska and Josh Hutcherson). Nic and Jules – or, when referred to jointly by Joni, “Moms” – gave birth to and raised their children, and built a family life for the four of them. As Joni prepares to leave for college, 15-year-old Laser presses her for a big favor. He wants Joni, now 18, to help him find their biological father; the two teenagers were conceived by artificial insemination. The most talked-about movie at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, and the winner of the Teddy Award for Best Feature Film at the 2010 Berlin International Film Festival, “The Kids Are All Right” is directed by Lisa Cholodenko (“High Art,” “Laurel Canyon”) from an original screenplay that she wrote with Stuart Blumberg (“Keeping The Faith”).

“Rather than expansion upon a proposal by two large communications companies with a vested financial in-terest in the outcome, formal FCC action is needed,” they wrote.

The letter – sent by Democrats Ed Markey of Mas-sachusetts, Anna Eshoo of California, Mike Doyle of Pennsylvania and Jay Inslee of Washington -- said that the FCC should maintain a free and open Internet.

Reuters reported Julius Genachowski, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, saying any outcome or deal that does not preserve an open and free Internet for consumers and entrepreneurs would be un-acceptable.

The proposal from Google and Verizon would give the FCC authority to enforce rules for wired networks by prohibiting broadband providers from discriminat-ing against or favoring Internet traffic. The proposal would allow the agency to impose a penalty of up to $2 million on companies that violate the rules. Wireless carriers, which have more capacity constraints, would not be subject to the restrictions, although they would have to disclose their network management practices.

In a conference call with reporters, Google CEO Eric Schmidt and Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg said their proposal would preserve the openness of the Internet, but still give phone and cable TV companies room to experiment with “managed” services that could send video, games and other bandwidth-hungry applications over separate systems.

Ground Zero mosque backer moving forwardReid speaks out on location

Backers of the plans to build a mosque near the site of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks vowed to move ahead with their plans yesterday.

“Everything is on track and we are moving forward with the location,” El-Gamal, chief executive of Soho Properties, which owns the building, was quoted say-ing yesterday in a Reuters report.

Senate majority leader Harry Reid came out against the plans yesterday, moving away from President Obama on the controversial election-year issue. Locked in a tight race, Reid became the highest profile Demo-crat to respond to the President, who last week backed the right for the developers to build the mosque.

“The First Amendment protects freedom of religion,” said Jim Manley, a Reid spokesman. “Senator Reid re-spects that, but thinks that the mosque should be built some place else.”

Critics have said the location of the mosque is insen-sitive because the terrorists who struck were Islamic extremists. The plans call for a $100 million Islamic center two blocks from where almost 3,000 people per-ished when hijacked jetliners slammed into the World Trade Center towers on Sept. 11, 2001.

Couple stoned by TalibanTaliban militants in northern Afghanistan stoned a

young couple to death for adultery, which a rights group said was the first confirmed use of the punishment here since the hardline Islamist regime was ousted in 2001.

The Taliban-ordered killing comes at a time when international rights groups have raised worries that at-tempts to negotiate with the Taliban to bring peace to Afghanistan could mean a step backward for human rights in the country. When the Islamist extremists ruled Afghanistan, women were not allowed to leave their houses without a male guardian, and public kill-ings for violations of their harsh interpretation of the Quran were common.

This weekend’s stoning appeared to arise from an affair between a married man and a single woman in Kunduz province’s Dasht-e-Archi district.

The woman, Sadiqa, was 20 years old and engaged to another man, said the Kunduz provincial police chief, Gen. Abdul Raza Yaqoubi. Her lover, 28-year-old Qayum, left his wife to run away with her, and the two had holed up in a friend’s house five days ago, said district government head, Mohammad Ayub Aqyar.

They were discovered by Taliban operatives on Sun-day and stoned to death in front a crowd of about 150 men, Aqyar said.

First the woman was brought out and stoned, then the man a half an hour later, Aqyar said. He decried the punishment, which he said was ordered by two local Taliban commanders.

A spokesman for the provincial government also condemned the act.

“It is against all human rights and international con-ventions,” said spokesman Mabubullah Sayedi. “There was no court. It was cruel.”

Amnesty International said it was the first confirmed stoning in Afghanistan since the fall of Taliban rule in the 2001 U.S.-led invasion.

It called the stoning a “heinous crime” that showed the Taliban and other insurgent groups “are growing increasingly brutal in their abuses against Afghans.”

Michael Douglas has throat cancer

Oscar-winning actor Michael Douglas is will under-go chemotherapy for throat cancer, People magazine

reported yesterday.Douglas, who is 65, was set to re-

ceive eight weeks of radiation and chemotherapy treatment, his spokes-man told People online. He is expect-ed to make a full recovery.

“I am very optimistic,” Douglas said in a statement.

Douglas has starred in hits such as “Fatal Attraction” (1988), “Wall Street” (1988), “War of the Roses” (1990), “Basic Instinct” (1992), “Traffic” (2001), and is the son of

screen legend Kirk Douglas. He is married to actress Catherine Zeta-Jones; the pair has two children.

China is now No. 2Japan lost its place as the world’s No. 2 economy to

China in the second quarter as receding global growth sapped momentum and stunted a shaky recovery.

Gross domestic product grew at an annualized rate of just 0.4 percent, the government said Monday, far below the annualized 4.4 percent expansion in the first quarter and adding to evidence the global recovery is facing strong headwinds.

The figures underscore China’s emergence as an economic power that is changing everything from the global balance of military and financial power to how cars are designed. It is already the biggest exporter, auto buyer and steel producer, and its global influence is expanding.

China has been a major force behind the world’s emergence from deep recession, delivering much-needed juice to the U.S., Japan and Europe. Tokyo’s latest numbers, however, suggest that Chinese demand alone may not be enough for Japan or other economic giants.

“Japan is the canary in the goldmine because it de-pends very much on demand in Asia and China, and this demand is cooling quite a bit,” said Martin Schulz, senior economist at Fujitsu Research Institute in To-kyo. “This is a warning sign for all major economies that just focusing on overseas demand won’t be suf-ficient.”

China has surpassed Japan in quarterly GDP fig-ures before, but this time it’s unlikely to relinquish the lead.

China’s economy will almost certainly be bigger than Japan’s at the end of 2010 because of the huge differ-ence in each country’s growth rates. China is growing at about 10 percent a year, while Japan’s economy is forecast to grow between 2 to 3 percent this year. The gap between the size of the two economies at the end of last year was already narrow.

Japan’s nominal GDP, which isn’t adjusted for price and seasonal variations, was worth $1.286 trillion in the April-to-June quarter compared with $1.335 trillion for China. The figures are converted into dollars based on an average exchange rate for the quarter.

Japan has held the No. 2 spot after the U.S. since 1968, when it overtook West Germany.

Big shrimpin’ in Louisiana

Fishermen who spent much of the summer mopping up oil from BP’s disastrous spill got back to work as the fall shrimping season in Louisiana’s coastal waters opened Monday amid anxiety over whether the catch will be tainted by crude and whether anyone will buy it even if it is clean.

Scores of shrimpers headed out at first light, and ear-ly reports indicated a plentiful and clean catch.

“We’re not seeing any oil where I’m at. No tar balls, nothing,” said Brian Amos, a 53-year-old shrimper who trawled in his 28-foot skiff, The Rolling Thunder, in a bay near Empire.

It was a step toward normalcy for many coastal towns that have been in limbo in the nearly four months since the spill shut down fishing, an economic linchpin for dock owners, restaurants and many other businesses along the Louisiana coast. Louisiana ranks first in the

nation in shrimp, blue crab, crawfish and oysters, and the state’s seafood industry overall generates an esti-mated $2.4 billion a year.

Teachers union threatens boycott of L.A. Times

The LA Unified School District Teachers Union has started urging labor groups in Southern California and across the country to boycott the Los Angeles Times.

The call for boycott stems from the Times’ recent coverage of teacher performance using so-called “grade the teacher” statistics.

“You’re leading people in a dangerous direction, making it seem like you can judge the quality of a teacher by … a test,” A.J. Duffy, president of United Teachers Los Angeles, said Sunday. United Teachers Los Angeles has more than 40,000 members.

“Based on test-score data covering seven years, The Times analyzed the effects of more than 6,000 elemen-tary school teachers on their students’ learning,” Times reporter Jason Felch wrote, describing the coverage. “Among other things, it found huge disparities among teachers, some of whom work just down the hall from one another.”

Miracle in ColombiaA Boeing 737 jetliner filled with vacationers crashed

in a thunderstorm and broke apart as it slid onto the runway on a Caribbean island Monday. Only one of the 131 people on board died, and the island’s governor called it a miracle.

The plane hit short of the runway on Colombia’s San Andres Island and skidded on its belly as the fuse-lage fractured and bits of landing gear and at least one engine were ripped off. The jet wound up on one end of the runway, crumpled and in pieces, as passengers scrambled or were helped to safety.

Of the 125 passengers and six crew members aboard the Aires airline jet, the only one killed was a 68-year-old woman, Amar Fernandez de Barreto, said San An-dres Gov. Pedro Gallardo.

“It was a miracle and we have to give thanks to God,” Gallardo said.

Officials were investigating a range of possible causes and looking into reports that Aires Flight 8520 was hit by lightning before the crash on the resort island, Co-lombian air force Col. David Barrero said.

“You can’t speculate. Lightning? A gust of wind? The investigation will say,” Barrero said by telephone from San Andres. “The pilot’s skill kept the plane from colliding with the airport.”

Officials said 119 people were treated or checked at clinics and five of them were seriously injured.

The airline said at least five U.S. citizens were on the plane, while the U.S. Embassy in Colombia said that four Americans and one U.S. permanent resident suf-fered injuries. The embassy said one critically injured American was being flown to Bogota for care, while the others were treated and released.

The jet crashed at 1:49 a.m. on the island, a resort area of 78,000 people about 120 miles east of the Ni-caraguan coast.

Aviation experts said it was too early in the investiga-tion to speculate about what caused the accident.

American men found their speed early in the season as Warner Nickerson of Gilford, N.H. led Olympic gold medalists Ted Ligety and Bode Miller to a giant slalom podium sweep Monday at Coronet Peak.

Up-and-comers Will Gregorak of Longmont and Colby Granstrom of Lake Stevens, Wash., the reigning Junior World Champion in combined, also landed in the top 10 with fifth and seventh, respectively. Grego-rak is a former ski and snowboard club Vail racer. Van-couver Olympian Megan McJames of Park City posted the top U.S. women’s result with fifth, followed closely by Julia Ford of Plymouth, N.H., in seventh.

The races kick off the second stop of the 2011 Aus-tralian New Zealand Cup series and fall near the end of the U.S. Ski Team’s annual summer on-snow camps in the Southern Hemisphere.

“The general energy of the entire group at this camp has just been awesome,” said men’s Head Coach Sasha Rearick. “Bode, Ted and all the guys have been giving incredible effort and just training like mad. It’s a really positive scene.”

Both Rearick and women’s Head Coach Alex Hoedl-moser gave credit to the Canadian Ski Team for inject-ing a few trails with water prior to the Team’s arrival allowing both programs to hit the ground running. The U.S. program then added a few more injected slopes providing the Team with incredible winter conditions for training.

“The men’s and women’s teams each brought an in-jection bar and we had a couple extra lanes already set thanks to the Canadians,” said Hoedlmoser. “So far the conditions have been great. We’ve been able to train with the guys a lot, and the girls are getting in the laps.

It’s exactly what they need at this time of the year.”Hoedlmoser and Rearick also noted excellent results

on equipment testing with Hoedlmoser pointing out in-credible feel from three-time Olympic medalist Julia Mancuso on her new equipment from Voekl.

“Julia has had some solid results with her giant slalom and super G skis and we’ll get things worked out with slalom. Lindsey [Vonn, of Vail] is also figuring some things out, particularly with her GS and slalom skis,” said Hoedlmoser. “We’re getting great feedback from the girls all the way around, both positive and nega-tive, but it’s all working towards making sure they’re on the fastest, most comfortable equipment by the time we start racing.”

McJames, and teammate Chelsea Marshall are also working out equipment switches with McJames mov-ing to Fischer and Marshall now working with Head. Additionally Hailey Duke made the move to Fischer boots, but still races on Voekl skis.

On the men’s side, Ligety took the first race runs of his career with Head racing and reported positive re-sults with his second place finish, while Marco Sulli-van is getting in laps on his new set-up from Rossignol and Lange.

“Marco is looking great,” said Rearick. “He’s show-ing some good ankle flexion and feeling positive about his new gear. Ted hasn’t lost any ground and is just flat out charging. He definitely has some things to figure out, but it’s all moving along nicely.”

A pair of slalom races are set for Tuesday at Coronet Peak with the women’s camp wrapping up the follow-ing day. The U.S. men will remain in New Zealand an-other week.

Woods high on Pavin’s list for Ryder Cup . . .

Tiger Woods remained No. 1 in the world ranking Monday, though not even close to that on two lists—the Ryder Cup and FedEx Cup—that mean much more these days.

Woods failed to qualify for the Ryder Cup for the first time—he had led the standings every other time since 1997—and now must rely on U.S. captain Corey Pavin spending one of four wild-card picks on him.

In a hotel conference room Monday, Pavin sat at the head table between two poster boards, each showing the final standings for the eight American qualifiers. Woods’ name was nowhere to be found between Phil Mickelson at No. 1 and Matt Kuchar at No. 8.

Pavin would only say that Woods is “high on my list” and will be a “big consideration” when he announces his selections Sept. 7.

“I’m looking at him in essence like any other player. He isn’t … but he is,” Pavin said. “I’m certainly not going to disrespect other players by considering him different from other players. I have to look at the way he’s playing, the way he played, and I have to look at his body of work as well. If anyone can turn it around quickly, it’s him.”

Woods should have at least one more tournament to make an impression.

While he wound up No. 12 in the Ryder Cup stand-ings, equally troublesome is that Woods is No. 108 in the FedEx Cup standings. The top 125 are eligible for The Barclays next week at Ridgewood Country Club in New Jersey, the start of the PGA Tour playoffs. Only

the top 100 in the standings advance to the second round of the playoffs at the Deutsche Bank Champion-ship outside Boston.

Woods is so far down in the FedEx Cup standings he’s one spot behind Pavin.

“He’s ranked a lot higher on Ryder Cup points,” Pavin said with a laugh, “and probably the world rank-ing, I’m guessing.”

Bunker rule unlikely to change at Whistling Straights in 2015

When the PGA Championship returns in five years to Whistling Straits the rules on playing the countless bunkers may still be in place.

The golf world was still reeling Monday over the two-shot penalty given to Dustin Johnson on the final hole. He grounded his 4-iron in the sand to the right of the fairway, not aware he was in a bunker.

Johnson had a one-shot lead when he teed off on the 18th. He missed a 7-foot par putt and seemed to slip into a playoff. But when he learned he had let his club touch the sand during his preshot routine, Johnson added two shots to his score and tied for fifth.

Asked if there was any consid-eration to change the unusual lo-cal bunker rule for 2015, PGA of America president Jim Remy said, “Not at this point.”

“Obviously, it’s the day after,” Remy said. “I’m sure (champion-ship director) Kerry Haigh will do his due diligence. He made the decision not to do it from 2004 to 2010. My guess is that probably the way we’re leaning is to leave it that way.”

It wasn’t the first time someone paid for the bunker rule at Whis-tling Straits.

When the PGA Championship was first played there in 2004, Stu-art Appleby was penalized four shots late in the third round for re-moving a dead piece of grass (two shots) to the right of the 16th hole and touching the sand on a practice swing (two shots).

What never will be known is how Johnson would have fared in the three-hole playoff, which Martin Kaymer won over Bubba Watson. It was the most shocking finish involv-

ing rules at a major since Roberto de Vicenzo signed for a 4 when he had made a 3 on the 17th hole of the final round in the 1968 Masters. He had to accept the higher score and finished one shot behind Bob Goalby.

Johnson said he didn’t look at the rules sheet that had been posted all week in the locker room and on the first tee throughout the week, ex-plaining that every bunker was a hazard, even if they were outside the ropes where the gallery had been standing.

“It was unfortunate for Dustin. I feel bad for him. He’s a PGA mem-ber, just like I am,” said Remy, the general manager of Okemo Valley Golf Club in Vermont. “I feel sad for him the way it all unfolded. But that’s the rules of golf. Those things happen in sports, and nobody feels good about it.”

Levi Leipheimer to race Tour of Utah

ATHLETIC STUFF

Coming off his win at the Leadville 100 Saturday, Lance Armstrong’s teammate at the 2010 Tour Levi Leipheimer will try his hand at the Tour of Utah.

Leipheimer will try to best a 143-man field that in-cludes previous Tour of Utah champs Jeff Louder (BMC Racing) and Francisco Mancebo (Canyon Bi-cycles), among an elite selection of U.S. based stage racers.

Arguably the most difficult non-UCI stage race in the U.S., the sixth annual Tour of Utah kicks off Tuesday at the State Capitol above Salt Lake City. Over the next six days, riders will face more than 20,000 vertical feet of climbing in three road stages, a hot, exposed desert time trial and a downtown criterium at 7,000 feet.

Levi Leipheimer smashed Armstrong’s Leadville 100 record setting a new mark of six hours, 16 minutes, 37 seconds. Lance Armstrong’s time from 2009 of 6:28:50 was also beaten by runner-up Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski, of Boulder, who crossed the line in 6:25:21.

Armstrong probe could take yearsWorld Anti-Doping Agency direc-

tor general David Howman thinks a U.S. probe into cheating in pro-fessional cycling could take years to complete, and says his group is helping investigators indirectly.

It takes time to gather evidence in cases like the wide-ranging cy-cling probe, Howman said in a telephone interview with The Asso-ciated Press. It could take months, or even years, for all the pieces to fall into place. Investigators have reached out to sponsors and report-edly to former teammates of seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong as part of the investi-gation. The probe gained attention after disgraced rider Floyd Landis, who was stripped of his 2006 Tour victory, admitted doping and impli-cated other riders—including Arm-strong—this spring.

Howman said that cooperation be-tween sports and international law enforcement agencies has gotten better because of the long-running BALCO case— which exposed ste-

roid use in track and field and base-ball and sent sprinter Marion Jones to prison.

“That is a very good example of how you can do these things inter-nationally and share information,” Howman said.

The common denominator be-tween the cases is that federal inves-tigator Jeff Novitzky has been heavi-ly involved in both. Now an agent for

the U.S. Food and Drug Administra-tion, Novitzky is working alongside prosecutors in Los Angeles. WADA has been able to help U.S. authorities smooth over international jurisdic-tional issues because it has a dedi-cated liaison officer assigned to the French government who works with international police agency Interpol, based in Lyon.

“We can go to Interpol and say we have been asked by another country to engage police or other agencies in Europe,” Howman said. “That is what we have done in this inquiry.

“I want to ensure that they get the best information they possibly can. Only in that scenario can you say the air has been cleared.”

Howman said Montreal-based WADA did not have access to evi-dence and had not yet been contact-ed directly by U.S. investigators. WADA also was working through the United States Anti-Doping Agency, though he did not rule out agency staff and documents eventu-ally being questioned.

Stratton Flats; the county will have the option of add-ing additional deed restrictions through is down pay-ment assistance program.

“The current economic climate, as well as the price points proposed by the new developer warranted flex-ibility in the deed restriction requirements. We still feel very confident that this project will remain the local workforce housing that was originally intended,” said

Commissioner Jon Stavney.Once approved, the three entities will continue to

work toward a quick transfer so that construction can resume.

“We are committed to the project and excited about the opportunity to work with the Town of Gypsum and Eagle County to successfully complete construc-tion and bring much-needed workforce housing to the

community,” said Brian Pauls, principal of the Pauls Corporation.

“At the end of the day, we all want the same thing,” said Fisher. “We want to provide an opportunity for three hundred families to own their own homes in this valley. We feel this agreement provides the best chance for that opportunity.”

According to Decent, the club will be a great way to meet new training partners, train for competitive events or just have fun running the roads and paths of Vail. Strides meets at the base of Vail Mountain near the Vista Bahn chairlift.

SANDBAR IS THE STACHE SPOT TONIGHT. Comprised of Pete Haugh and Ben Koelker from Hustle as well as Jimmy Vonesh slappin’ the base, the Stache power trio lays it down a little heavier than Haugh and Koelker’s other projects.

home is a truly unique property.The driveway loops around the front

of the house, where a small pond and custom swimming pool with waterfall greet guests as they approach the front of the residence. It’s an unusual ar-rangement, having the pool in the front of the house, but when your backyard is a cliff, it makes for a safer swimming environment.

The property extends all the way down the cliff band to the Eagle River below. The property owner will enjoy exclusive water rights for fishing, boat-ing and irrigation.

Six bedrooms, including a separate caretaker quarters, make up the resi-dence. Every single room in the moun-tain modern home is exposed to breath-taking, cliffside scenery. The kitchen features top-of-the-line modern appliances and granite counter tops with panoramic views.

The complex also features an 11,000-square-foot indoor equestrian center, with enough corals to house 10 horses. The temperature-controlled fa-cility can be utilized year round for horse activity; however, it could also be transformed into just about anything the new owner would like – say a field house, a skate park, ice rink or all of the above.

In addition to the three-car garage attached to the

home, there are also two separate four-car garages. That’s enough space for 11 cars, in case you lost count.

The home is beautifully decorated with furnish-ings to be negotiated.

At a 50-percent reduction, the Vista Estate is a great bargain and a one-of-a-kind property.

came a top-20 hit. Gavin’s airplay reports also listed it as No. 1. After “Fear” was certified platinum, another single from the LP, “Walk on the Ocean,” also became a success-ful track for the band. They played more than 300 shows on the “Fear” tour, a two-year marathon ending in throat surgery for Phillips’ overused pipes.

Three years later, Toad returned with “Dulcinea”, gener-ating yet another top-40 hit (not to mention a six-week run as number one on Billboard’s Modern Rock Tracks) with the single “Fall Down.” “Dulcinea” then also sold enough copies to reward Toad with another platinum certification.

1995 brought “In Light Syrup,” a collection of unreleased material, B-Sides and movie soundtrack songs. Featuring “Good Intentions,” another hit single that’s also been fea-tured on the platinum selling “Friends” TV show sound-track, “In Light Syrup” recently became certified gold.

“Coil,” Toad the Wet Sprocket’s fifth proper LP, followed in 1997. Then, in July 1998, the group parted ways. Even so, in 1999, “PS (A Toad Retrospective)” was released. And then in 2004 Columbia/Legacy released Toad’s live CD: “Welcome Home, Live from the Arlington Theater.”

In late 2002/early 2003 Toad the Wet Sprocket played a run of sold-out shows. And now, 2010 finds the band look-ing to reassemble their fans as they take to the road for a series of 18 concert dates this summer.

All Hot Summer Nights free concerts get underway at 6:30 p.m. with the gates of the amphitheater opening at 5:30 p.m. Food, commercially sealed non-alcoholic bev-erages and leg-less lawn chairs are permitted in the Ford Amphitheater, however dogs should be left at home.

My name is Jackson and I’m around 4-years-old. I’m a fun-loving Rat/Fox Terrier Mix. I was found shot and

left for dead and my abdomen was torn open from animal bites. Some

nice people fixed me up, but then I got pneumonia.

I survived that ordeal but was almost put down due to overcrowding at the shelter. Lucky me, I was brought to Vail! I am currently up for

adoption. I love to hike and chase tennis balls, and I’ve never met a person or dog that I didn’t like!
