THE UPDATE
With nearly three feet of snow in the last week, Vail Mountain announced yes-terday that the resort will open tomorrow with 1,150 acres of skiable terrain and nine lifts – nearly double the skiable
acres reported late Monday. “This opening scenario is probably
better than we even dare to hope for and it doesn’t happen very often,” said Chris Jarnot, chief operating officer of Vail
Mountain. “We’ve been blessed with some of the best early-season snow we’ve ever had, and our crews have worked in-credibly hard to prepare as much terrain and as many lifts as possible. I know ev-
eryone in town and certainly everyone at Vail Resorts is excited to kick off Vail’s winter season on Friday.”

Schleper takes lucky gator out of retirement, wins raceWhile Vail local Abby Ghent has a 5th place finish at FIS contests this week
Vail local Sarah Schleper was back at the top of the podium yesterday at an In-ternational Ski Federation (FIS) race at Copper Mountain.
Schleper said she skied well on the soft snow, but her decision to take her lucky gator out of retirement may have also played a role in the win. Her friend Kiley Staples made the pink and purple bandana for Schleper and a few other ski team members; it has given Schleper luck in the past and didn’t disappoint yesterday in its first appearance of the season.
The race, a slalom, was another in which Schleper found herself the master of the second run: She won it after taking 2nd to Katie Hitchcock in the first run.
Schleper, who was the fastest female Slalom skier in North America at the 2010 Olympics, had the 4th-fastest time
in the world in the second Slalom run at the first World Cup event of this season in Soelden, Austria, in October. She was
hoping for an even better finish at the second World Cup race of the season last weekend in Levi, Finland, but wasn’t able to put a strong run together there.
“The snow in Levi was very grippy and my edges may have been too sharp,” Schleper said yesterday about that race. “That’s part of the reason why I wanted to get back on the softer snow and see how I would do, and obviously I was happy with the result.”
Whether the snow is hard or soft, for Schleper – who is 31 and has been ski-ing Vail her whole life – ski racing is just another part of skiing. The more varied the ski curriculum, the happier she is and the better she races. That’s why she was absolutely thrilled to get 100 or so fresh powder turns yesterday after the race ended.
Scheper’s day began at 4:45 a.m., she left Vail at 5:15 and had won the FIS slalom before the lifts had even started running at Copper. Her journey from the bottom of the course to her car was pure
No, that’s not a 10th Mountain Division sol-dier in a furry white marching band hat. That’s a foot of snow on top of the 10th Mtn. memo-rial in Vail Village this week. Heavy snow has allowed for one of Vail’s largest opening days in recent memory. Connor Walberg photo.

Vail Resorts announced yesterday that after 35 years with the company, Jim Roberts, vice president of mountain operations for Beaver Creek, will retire from his position next year. Roberts will remain with Vail Resorts working on special company projects includ-ing those related to the 2015 World Alpine Ski Cham-pionships such as the construction of the new women’s downhill. Late in the summer of 2011 the resort will seek his replacement.
“This announcement is bittersweet for me personally and for the company,” said John Garnsey, co-president of Vail Resorts’ Mountain Division. “While Jimmy’s vision, leadership and sharp attention to detail will be missed on a day-to-day basis at Beaver Creek, in his new role he’ll be an instrumental part of the projects associated with the 2015 World Championships and we’re excited he’ll be able to pursue personal interests while still providing a great service to the company.”
Roberts said his time with Vail Resorts means the world to his family and him.
“It’s incredible to wake up each day and share in a passion where we come together on the slopes and the thrill of making turns on any trail brings a huge smile to every face,” Roberts said. “I’ve been fortunate to work with so many outstanding individuals during my time here and I couldn’t be more proud of the mountain ops crews and the many individuals at the resort that I work with every day who go the extra mile to provide argu-ably one of the best ski experiences in the world. I’m looking forward to putting on my hunting boots and fishing waders a bit more, and I’m also eager to focus on special projects.”
Roberts began his career with Vail Associates in the fall of 1975 where he worked at Vail Mountain. In ad-dition to running ski racing events at Vail, Jim oversaw many on-mountain construction projects including sig-nificant resort terrain expansions into China Bowl and
Blue Sky Basin. International ski racing also made its way to Vail and with a solid background in trail con-struction, course building naturally fell under Roberts’ guidance. This led to his oversight of the construction of the Bernard Russi-designed 1989 World Alpine Ski Championships courses in Beaver Creek along with major course modifications in Vail.
In the fall of 1997, using course designer Russi’s plans again, Roberts and his team built the Birds of Prey speed courses that stand as one of the world’s toughest and most respected annual stops on the men’s World Cup. The course also has some of the most advanced safety netting and features to protect not only the rac-ers, but also the race officials. This model has been put into practice at other race venues around the globe.
During the fall of 1999, Roberts moved to Beaver Creek to work as the director of mountain operations and in 2003 he was promoted to vice president of mountain operations. While at Beaver Creek, Roberts oversaw terrain expansions including Grouse Moun-tain, Bachelor Gulch and Stone Creek Chutes. His ex-pertise also was an integral part of building not only the Birds of Prey race course but also working with the Vail Valley Foundation and the International Ski Fed-eration (FIS) to host the 1999 World Alpine Ski Cham-pionships. He was a part of the organizing group that successfully landed the 2015 Championships and his leadership and experience building venues are a critical component in the event’s preparation.
“On behalf of Vail Resorts, we wish to acknowledge and thank Jimmy for his numerous contributions to the Company and the ski industry over his 35 years here and we are happy he will remain part of the Vail Re-sorts family, though he will be moving into the next chapter of his impressive career,” added Garnsey.
2015 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships will be held February 3-15, 2015, at Vail and Beaver Creek.

Celebrating 10 Years
The Minturn Town Council had their first look at potential open burning regulations last night, and their response was anything but welcoming.
Town Planner Chris Cerimele presented an early draft of to rec-reational burning regulations to the council at their work session. The single-page document has less than seven items, but a few members of the council said even that was too many.
Under the proposed codes, Mint-urn residents would have to obtain a permit from the Eagle River Fire
Protection District for any recre-ational fire. This rule is in place under the current codes, Cerimele said, but is not enforced by the town. More than any other item, the permitting requirement was op-posed by members of the council.
“To me this just seems a little nuts,” said council member Earle Bidez. “I understand the rationale behind the code, but this permitting thing is a very alien and strange thing to me.”
Bidez said he favored an ap-proach more in line with nuisance ordinances, which would allow law enforcement to extinguish a fire if it was creating a disturbance.
Restrictions on the size, location
and timing of fires are also in the document. If the code was adopt-ed as put forth last night, Minturn residents would not be allowed to have a fire before 12 p.m. or after 11 p.m., could not burn a fire for longer than three hours, and would have to keep all fires within 3 feet in diameter and 2 feet in height.
There would also be restrictions in place on the location of fire pits, which could not be within 30 feet of the river or 25 feet of any structure.
Mayor Hawkeye Flaherty said he agreed with the rules that keep fires away from the river, but rejected most others, including those that would keep them away from homes

The Sanctuary at Finis Boni is wrapping up a month long celebration of Thanksgiving this Sunday afternoon from 4 to 6 p.m. In recent years science has developed the tools to prove the physical benefits of a practice of gratitude. A practice of gratitude is good for both your mind and your body.
According to Julia Clarke, who taught the first work-shop of the series “The Institute of Heartmath has done substantial research showing that spending only five minutes a day in appreciation lowers the blood pres-sure and stress hormones in the body, boosts the im-mune system and elevates serotonin levels for up to ten hours. Their research has shown that engaging in a state of appreciation, or any core heart feeling such as love, care or compassion, produces more coherent heart rhythms. Since the heart has the most powerful electro-magnetic field in the human body (5,000 times greater than the brain), it influences the brain, the im-mune system, blood pressure, hormones, energy ... therefore, a more coherent heart equals a more coher-ent body and mind.”
This Sunday’s workshop “Get Hip to Your Heart” of-fers a playful full spectrum all-levels practice that will open the physical body and invite participants to con-
template gratitude and all they have to be thankful for. Local yogi and artist Robin Nash will lead the work-shop and had this to say about Sunday’s practice: “We live in a very active area, where many of our activities cause our bodies to be very strong . . . and tight, this practice will create openings and relieve stiffness, it is so much easier to practice gratitude and feel Thankful when your body is free from pain.”
The workshop will include hip and shoulder open-ing, breathing exercises and end with a few restorative poses. Ending with restorative will allow workshop participants to be fully relaxed at the end of the prac-tice. Restorative yoga uses props to support the body, and encourages a gentle release of muscle tension and stress. Nash teaches the Sanctuary’s weekly Restor-ative yoga class on Thursday evenings from 7:15 - 8:15 p.m., where all are welcome.
Sunday’s workshop is $30. To reserve your space, call The Sanctuary at Finis Boni at 926-9060, week-ends call 390-6813 or register online at www.finisboni.com.
The Sanctuary at Finis Boni is located in the River-walk, 1st & Main Bldg, across the street from the movie theater between Salon Axis and the Main Street Grill.

Crazy ’80s party starts tonightEdwards brewery to serve beer and ski classics
It’s time to dust off the headbands and break out the neons. For the next three nights, Crazy Mountain Brewery in Edwards is host-ing a throwback to the 80’s.
Starting at 6 p.m. Thurs-day, Friday and Saturday, the brewery will show clas-sic ski movies. Tonight’s flick is “Blizzard of Aah-hhs”, while Friday and Sat-urday will feature “Aspen Extreme” and “Hot Dog: The Movie.”
“We were just trying to think of something fun to do for the start of the season,” brewmaster and founder Kevin Selvy said.
Patrons who show up in their best ’80s gear will pay just $1 per beer. Cos-tumes don’t have to be perfect to qualify for the discount, Selvy said, but “more dressed up than like a scrunchie in your hair.”
Anyone who comes to the event is welcome to bring their own food, Selvy said, and shouldn’t worry about making it in time for the start of the movie. They will also have an encore presentation of each film around 8 p.m.
The staff at the brewery are planning to stay late all three nights, he said.
“We tell people we close at seven but we usually stay until everyone leaves.”

Mr. Anonymous to play an eclectic opening day show
You might want to save some of those ski legs on Vail’s opening day for some dancing legs at Samana’s Mr. Anony-mous show, fronted by The Samples drummer Jeep Macnichol.
It should be like no other show you’ve seen, combining elements of reggae vo-cals, two DJs, drums, guitar and lights.
The band’s two-DJ setup was inspired by a show put on by Mos Def when he came through Boulder.
“After I saw that show, I said, man, I’ve got to get two DJs,” Macnichol said in an interview with the Mountaineer. “I’m a guitar player, a bass player and a drummer. So a lot of the things that I was writing after I left the Samples were real reggae dancehall grooves. It’s always been a part of my musical pallet, ever since I started playing music – it’s been with a love for reggae.”
After the Mr. Anonymous’s second album, Macnichol was inundated by re-quests to transform the work he had done in the studio into a live performance. The
band collaborated with Pretty Lights – a Colorado band that pioneered the DJ-plus-drummer duo. It was at that point that Mr. A realized his studio project could become live show.
“But the style of Mr. Anonymous is not really reggae at all,” Macnichol said. “It features reggae singers, but it’s more psychedelic, trip-top and dancehall dub – more than straight reggae. It’s like Thievery Corporation taking on Reg-gae.”
As founding member and drummer of the Colorado based pop/jam band The Samples, Macnichol’s musical journey included six national album releases, sharing the stage with Sting, Dave Mathews, Steel pulse, Flaming Lips, The Wailers, Sonic Youth, Blues Trav-eler and a performance on the Jay Leno show.
Mr. Anonymous said he’s really thrilled to be playing Vail’s opening day, and he hopes everyone brings all the great en-ergy from the hill to the show.
The show is free before 11 p.m. and $5 thereafter.

than seven days.U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan had thanked the
jury, saying the outcome showed that justice “can be rendered calmly, deliberately and fairly by ordinary people — people who are not beholden to any govern-ment, even this one.”

House Democrats keep Pelosi as their leader
House Democrats elected Nancy Pelosi to remain as their leader yesterday despite massive party losses in this month’s congressional elections that prompted some lawmakers to call for new leadership. Pelosi, the nation’s first female House speaker, will become mi-nority leader when Republicans assume the majority in the new Congress in January.
She defeated moderate Democratic Rep. Heath Shul-er of North Carolina, 150-43, in secret balloting in a lengthy closed-door gathering of House Democrats in the Capitol.Pelosi, 70, overcame a rebellion from party centrists, and even some fellow liberals, who argued that the party needs to offer a new face of leadership af-ter losing at least 60 House seats on Nov. 2. She remains popular among the liberals who dominate the party’s House caucus. But Shuler’s level of support - plus an earlier 129-68 vote against postponing the election that Pelosi wanted to wrap up quickly - underscored the degree of discontent in a party that Pelosi had largely bended to her will in the past four years.
GOP governors already looking to 2012 electionThe 2010 elections barely over, nearly three dozen
current and incoming Republican governors already are looking to the next election, aiming to capitalize on victories in presidential battlegrounds while working to shed the GOP’s white-guy image.
Still a full two years away, the 2012 contests - and who should lead the party during the next election cy-cle when President Barack Obama will be up for re-election - hung over the Republican Governors Asso-ciation’s annual conference.
No fewer than four potential presidential candidates, including outgoing RGA Chairman Haley Barbour and Vice Chairman Tim Pawlenty, as well as a slew of GOP rising stars were among the 34 Republican leaders at-tending the two-day gathering.
Palin says she coulddefeat Obama in 2012
Sarah Palin says she could defeat President Barack
Obama if she seeks the White House in 2012. In an ex-cerpt of an ABC News interview released yesterday, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee says she’s considering a presidential run. When asked directly if she thought she could defeat Obama, the former Alaska governor replied, “I believe so.”
An Associated Press-GfK poll earlier this month found Palin the most polarizing of the potential 2012 Republican presidential candidates. The poll says 46 percent of Americans view her favorably, 49 percent unfavorably, and 5 percent don’t know enough about her to form an opinion.
Yet among adults who identify themselves as Repub-licans or GOP-leaning independents, 79 percent view her favorably.
Wis. man accused of shooting TV over Palin
A rural Wisconsin man apparently enraged by Bris-tol Palin’s “Dancing with the Stars” routine blasted his television with a shotgun, leading to an all-night stand-off with a SWAT team, investigators said.
Steven Cowan, 67, was arrested Tuesday morning af-ter officers coaxed him out of his house in Vermont, a rural community near Madison. Cowan, who is accused of threatening his wife with the gun after destroying the television, appeared in a Madison courtroom yesterday on a charge of second-degree reckless endangerment. His bail was set at $1,500.
Cowan’s attorney at the hearing, Jonas Bednarek, de-clined to comment.
Cowan’s wife, Janice Cowan, told investigators that her husband suffers from bipolar disorder and had threatened her life in the past.
Air Force warns troops about Facebook feature
The Air Force is warning its troops to be careful when using Facebook and other popular networking sites be-cause some new features could show the enemy exactly where U.S. forces are located in war zones.
In a warning issued on its internal website earlier this month, the Air Force said that “careless use of these services by airmen can have devastating operations security and privacy implications.” The message was also sent to senior commanders, who were asked to get the word out to their forces.
The sites are a concern for U.S military services, which have 95,000 troops in Afghanistan and roughly 50,000 in Iraq. The Army, which provides the bulk of the battlefield forces, said it intends to circulate a simi-lar warning about location services to key personnel next week.
The applications, which are offered by a variety of services including Facebook, Foursquare, Gowalla and Loopt, can identify a person’s location, even pinpoint it on a map.

Bush, Maya Angelou awarded
top honorPresident George H.W. Bush, poet
Maya Angelou and investor Warren Buf-fett are among the 2010 winners of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the na-tion’s highest civilian honor.
President Barack Obama will present the awards to the 15 honorees early next year, the White House announced yes-terday.
Other winners include a civil rights hero, Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., plus St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Famer Stan “The Man” Musial, Boston Celtics legend Bill Russell, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
Obama’s bipartisan gesture in picking the first President Bush for the honor is not unprecedented. Former President Bill Clinton, a Democrat, awarded a Medal of Freedom to former Republican President Gerald Ford.
US wants tribesmen to fight Taliban
When members of the Alikozai tribe rose up against the Taliban in this criti-cal insurgent stronghold, neither coali-tion forces nor the government in Kabul lifted a finger to help them.
The Taliban promptly crushed the re-bellion. And just to make sure everyone got the message, they chained the upris-ing’s leader to the back of a pickup truck and dragged him to another province.
That was three years ago, when Af-ghanistan was not a priority for the Bush administration, coalition forces lacked resources and the Afghan government was worried about stirring up tribal ri-valries.
Now, U.S. Marines hope they can per-suade the Alikozai that this time will be different. They want the tribesmen to take up arms again and help drive the Taliban out of this river valley in south-ern Helmand province’s Sangin district - the deadliest piece of real estate for co-alition forces this year.
Report details how hospitals can be
risky placesMedicare’s new chief called for more
steps to improve patient safety Tuesday, in the wake of a government report that said one in seven hospitalized Medicare patients is harmed during their stay.
About 1.5 percent of those patients, or 15,000 people a month, suffered a com-plication that contributed to their death, the inspector general for the Department of Health and Human Services said.

Berwick, a well-known quality-care specialist, told re-porters.
His agency unveiled a new Medicare “innovation center” Tuesday designed to develop and test ways to improve quality of care and lower health care costs for everyone, not just Medicare recipients. The program is one of several established by the new health care law to help Medicare spur improvements in patient safety.
Feds holding firm on intrusive airport securityDespite a deluge of complaints over intrusive pat-
downs and revealing airport scans, the government is betting Americans would rather fly safe than untouched. “I’m not going to change those policies,” the nation’s transportation security chief declared yesterday.
Responded a lawmaker: “I wouldn’t want my wife to be touched in the way that these folks are being touched.”
The debate over where to strike the balance between privacy and security, in motion since new safety mea-sures took effect after the 2001 terrorist attacks, has intensified with the debut of pat-downs that are more thorough, and invasive, than before, and the spread of full-body image scans.
A week before some of the busiest flying days of the year, some passengers are refusing the regimen, many more are complaining and the aviation industry is caught in the middle.
Nigeria: 19 oil hostages released in military raid
A military raid freed 19 hostages held in Nigeria’s oil-rich southern delta yesterday night, a negotiator said, striking a stunning blow to a resurgent militancy in a region vital to U.S. oil supplies.
The negotiator, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity, said the operation freed seven expatriate workers kidnapped Nov. 8 from an oil rig working an offshore field for London-based Afren PLC. Another seven Nigerian hostages came from an attack carried out Sunday on an Exxon Mobil Corp. rig operating nearby. The origin of the remaining hostages remained unclear yesterday night.
Others kidnapped included workers for construction company Julius Berger Nigeria PLC.
The negotiator spoke on condition of anonymity as the operation to free the hostages was still ongoing. An Afren spokesman declined to immediately comment yesterday night, and officials with Exxon Mobil did not immediately return a call for comment.
Target predicts happier holiday season
Target Corp. is projecting a merry holiday as the dis-counter counts on a 5 percent discount for its credit and debit card customers and its storewide remodeling
The upbeat report comes as Target reported a 22.6 percent increase in third-quarter net income, helped by improvements in its credit card business and expansion into food.
The cheap chic discounter said it expects a key rev-enue measure to rise more sharply than it has in any pe-riod in the last three years as it reaps the benefits of its new 5 percent discount offer for those buying with its branded credit card or debit cards. The store remodels feature an expansion of fresh food as well as brighter lighting in cosmetics and better shoe displays.
Foreclosure class actions pile up against banks
Foreclosure-fraud class action lawsuits are starting to pile up against major banks across the U.S., threaten-ing a besieged industry with billions more in potential losses. Bank executives are swarming Capitol Hill this week to defend themselves against multiple foreclosure-related investigations, including one by all 50 state attor-neys general. Talks are under way in that probe in hopes of reaching a settlement, but that wouldn’t extinguish the mounting threat of an avalanche of class actions.
A congressional watchdog said in a report issued Tuesday that the foreclosure document debacle could threaten major banks with billions of dollars in losses, further prolong the housing depression and damage the government’s effort to keep people in their homes.
Exxon to pay $25M for NYC oil spill
Exxon Mobil Corp. has agreed to pay $25 million to resolve complaints over its handling of a huge under-ground oil spill in New York City.
The settlement with Attorney General Andrew Cuo-mo and a related agreement with the environmental group Riverkeeper will settle years of litigation over the toxic legacy of the refineries that once lined the Brooklyn waterfront.
It will also hasten a decades-long cleanup of the neighborhood that now sits above the oil plume, Cuo-mo vowed yesterday.
For the first time, the company will be held to dead-lines for cleaning up portions of the spill, said Cuomo, New York’s governor-elect. Exxon Mobil will also be required to clean contaminated soil and ensure that fumes from the spill are not entering people’s homes.
“They have to do more, better, faster,” Cuomo said.An estimated 17 million gallons of petroleum once lay
beneath land that was a major production center for Stan-dard Oil, and later was the home of refineries and fuel distribution terminals for several energy companies.

vorce basketball star Tony Parker, citing irreconcilable differences.
Parker, a three-time NBA All-Star with the San An-tonio Spurs, made no hint as to what caused the split between him and the star of TV’s “Desperate House-wives” during a brief meeting with a throng of report-ers outside his team’s locker room about an hour before a game.
“It’s a difficult time right now for me and Eva,” Park-er said. “We got a joint statement and everything else is our private life.”
Fla. gov. wants The Doors’ Jim Morrison pardoned
The time to hesitate is through, no time to wallow in the mire: Florida’s outgoing governor wants to posthu-mously pardon rock ‘n’ roll wild man Jim Morrison, the lead singer of The Doors who was famously con-victed of exposing himself at an anarchic 1969 concert in Miami.
Gov. Charlie Crist, a 54-year-old baby boomer and Morrison fan whose favorite Doors song is “Light My Fire,” said the evidence that Morrison unzipped his pants was flimsy and prosecutors were trying to make an example of the singer, whose on-stage excesses and appetite for sex and drugs were legendary.
“There’s some troubling aspects to it as to whether there was a valid conviction. The more I learn about it, the more I’m convinced a wrong may have been done here. My heart just bleeds for his legacy and his fam-ily,” said Crist, who leaves office in January and figures “it’s sort of now or never.”
Wayne Newton wants to open his house to world
Wayne Newton’s Las Vegas estate is a lavish wonder-land complete with South African penguins, sweeping crystal staircases and a memorabilia collection to make a celebrity junkie salivate: a Frank Sinatra champagne glass, Nat King Cole’s watch, Steve McQueen’s Rolls-Royce and a Johnny Cash guitar.
The estate is so resplendent, Newton said, that he plans to open his gated home to the public and turn it into a tourist attraction. The project some have dubbed “Graceland West” won initial approval from a local government board yesterday, paving the way for New-ton to open his tours in late 2011 as planned.
The attraction has caused friction between the en-tertainer and neighbors opposed to noisy tour buses, unyielding traffic and inane gift shops flooding their affluent neighborhood of ranches and mansions just six miles from the Las Vegas Strip.
Woman allegedly tries to cut tattoo off man
Lincoln police said a woman tried to slice a tattoo of her name off her boyfriend’s neck. Capt. Anthony But-ler told the Lincoln Journal Star that the 19-year-old woman and her 30-year-old boyfriend had gotten into a dispute around 6:40 p.m. on Friday. That’s when she tried to cut off the tattoo.
Butler said the boyfriend suffered only minor inju-ries, mostly scratches.

The soulful sound of Americana rock and roll comes to Eagle Friday night at the Grand Avenue Grill. The Great Divide Duo, John Michel and Michael Jude will be perform-ing a mix of new original songs blended with classic hits that will keep you entertained by their tight vocal harmonies and world-class guitar tones.
Grand Avenue Grill is a great venue to relax and try out new ma-terial, says guitarist and vocalist John Michel.
“We enjoy coming to Eagle, no one knows us there. I actually heard someone say, ‘what are they doing here, these guys are great!’ It made me laugh,” says guitarist and vocal-ist Michael Jude. “It’s great to have a place to call home when we come off the road. We would also like to bring some of the other great play-
ers from our valley in the future.”Jude and Michel reside in the
Roaring Fork Valley, and play worldwide with the John Oates band.
“The Grand Avenue Grill is a venue that has become a perfect fit for us to play new original tunes and our favorite classics” Jude added.
Christine Ryan, Grand Avenue Grill co-owner, wanted to bring quality music entertainment to Eagle and enhance the after dinner business.
“We saw that there was not a lot going on after dark in Eagle and de-cided to try and change that,” she said. “It’s been good, but we need to get the word out that these guys are here.”
Michel just returned from play-ing Music City Roots Loveless Café with John Oates, Sam Bush
and Jeff Black. The performance was broadcast live on the radio on Lightening100 in Nashville. A video recorded version is on Mu-sic city’s website. Jude and Michel have recorded and played with some of Americas finest musicians, John Oates, Bobby Mason, Sam Bush, David Crosby, Warren Haynes, The Beach Boys, Billy Joel, Phoe-be Snow, Tommy James and The Shondells, John Corbit and many others. They have also appeared on Jay Leno and Regis and Kelly.
Their experience shows as they perform classic hits of Dave Ma-son, Steely Dan, Van Morrison, and James Taylor. To listen to the bands songs go the their newly launched facebook page, Great Divide Band. Check them out this Friday night at the Grand Avenue Grill in Eagle at 7:30 p.m.

On Tuesday, Nov. 23, Fusion! Café in Eagle will do-nate half of all sushi sales directly to the Roundup Riv-er Ranch. The owners and staff of Fusion! Café in Ea-gle are longtime supporters of Roundup River Ranch, which is a provisional member of the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps for children with serious medi-cal conditions. The camp is free of charge to the camp-ers and their families and will provide year-round camp experiences with appropriate medical care to children with life-threatening illnesses.
Fusion! Café is located at the corner of Highway 6 and 4th Street in Eagle and is open from 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. The money raised from Tuesday’s event will help send children to camp at Roundup River Ranch. As Paul Newman, founder of the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps, once said “It’s not that the children say ‘Thank you for a wonderful time’… it’s that they say ‘thank you for changing my life.’” For more infor-mation, call 328-1234.
The camp will open to campers in the summer of 2011. In its opening season, Roundup River Ranch will serve hundreds of children in the Rocky Mountain re-gion suffering from various life-threatening illnesses, including cancer, serious gastrointestinal disorders, organ transplants, and asthma and lung disease.
The Association of Hole in the Wall Camps was founded by Newman in 1988 for children with serious medical conditions. As a provisional member, Roundup River Ranch continues to work toward meeting the set of requirements that will allow them to apply for full membership. These requirements are designed to ensure the highest level of safety, programming, and financial sustainability at the camp. Following the completion of the camp’s first season, Roundup River Ranch will seek full membership within the Association. Roundup River Ranch is located near Dotsero along the Colo-rado River. For more information on the camp, visit www.RoundupRiverRanch.org or call 748-9983.

One of Vail’s classic acts will make his debut appearance at the Bowlmor Lounge on Saturday, as Jeffrey Clay takes his turn at the Back Bowl’s “Jammin’ at the Bowlmor” music series
Saturday’s show is slated to start at 8 p.m. with no cover charge.
Back when there was but a hand-ful of musical acts plying their craft in the valley, Jeffrey Clay was there, putting in his time on the après ski circuit, playing for
drinks and tips, just hoping the gig would last long enough to bridge until the next. More than 30 years later, he is still plying that craft. His penchant for entertaining peo-ple sharing his love for music with appreciative crowds has taken on many incarnations, but his passion remains the same.
Clay was one of the founding members of the popular Emer-son Biggins Band which was the house-band for the landmark Sun-
dance Saloon. As he segued into the ’80s, he began playing all over the U.S., Europe and the Islands as a solo act, logging the miles that eventually led him back to our the Vail Valley, where he has reestab-lished himself as one of the area’s preeminent solo acts, much to the delight of many long-time locals, while introducing a new gen-eration of fans to his “feel-good” sound.

WADA dismisses Contador’s meat claimTwo-time reigning Tour de France champion faces uphill climb to clear name
Alberto Contador’s lawyers are chal-lenging a World Anti-Doping Agency document that concludes his positive drug test at the Tour de France could not have been caused by tainted meat.
El Pais newspaper said a WADA team visited the slaughterhouse and butcher’s shop in Irun, Spain, that provided the beef Contador contends led to the posi-tive finding for clenbuterol.
El Pais said it obtained a WADA re-port that determined the clenbuterol in Contador’s sample “could not have come from possibly contaminated meat” and also ruled out asthma medication as a cause.
“None of the inspections and none of the tests on samples of meat found traces of clenbuterol, a banned drug used to fat-ten cattle quickly,” El Pais said.
In a statement released by Contador spokesman Jacinto Vidarte on Wednes-day, the rider’s legal team said that af-ter studying all the material it received from the International Cycling Union—including the WADA report—“it is im-possible to determine that the meat was not contaminated.”
Contador’s legal team argued that WADA’s investigation “lacked strength” since it did not investigate all the pos-sibilities of food contamination and was limited to questions—rather than actual analysis—related to the slaughterhouse and ranch where the meat came from.
“The European Union’s present sys-tem of monitoring meat is not perfect nor sufficient enough in detecting fraud
where it exists,” the Contador statement said.
WADA spokesman Frederic Donze declined comment.
Contador, a three-time Tour de France champion, remains provisionally sus-pended. He risks losing this year’s Tour title and a two-year doping ban if found guilty of doping.
The WADA report was passed on to the Spanish cycling federation from the UCI. The Spanish disciplinary commit-tee is investigating Contador’s case and will issue a ruling.
The 27-year-old cyclist, who has threatened to quit the sport regardless of the outcome, said he would be willing to submit all of his team’s own investiga-tion to the Spanish federation and meet with the panel in the coming days.
According to El Pais, WADA’s report said Contador’s “main problem” in at-tempting to clear his name is that “his entire defense rests on the involuntary ingestion of the meat contaminated with clenbuterol in such a tiny amount that it had no effect on his performance.”
WADA referred to a 2008 European Union study in which 300,000 meat samples were tested and traces of clen-buterol were found in only one. It added that farmers will not slaughter their cattle until at least 20 days after the last dose of clenbuterol has been administered to avoid being caught and allow the steroid to have its full “fattening-up” effect.
Contador signed a two-year deal to ride for Saxo Bank from 2011.

Tiger Woods joins TwitterNow the world’s No. 2 golfer, Tiger Woods has taken
a lot of heat over the past year for all the girls he twit-tered -- of course in this case we’re not referring to the popular social networking site, which he has now joined, as well.
Returning from a two-week trip to Asia and Australia, Woods posted his first tweet on Wednesday: “What’s up everyone. Finally decided to try out twitter!”
The Twitter account actually was launched in June, the name—“TigerWoods” — reserved about a year be-fore that. The previous three tweets were to announce a new twitter page, website design and Facebook page.
The first tweet from Woods came at 11:08 a.m. Woods had just over 90,000 followers then, and within an hour, he already had added some 10,000 more.

Former No. 1 Moya retires from tennisFormer French Open champion
Carlos Moya announced his re-tirement from tennis on Wednes-day after a 15-year career, citing a nagging foot injury.
The former No. 1 said differ-ing medical opinions on resolving the lingering right foot injury had provided more stress than solu-tions and left him with little op-tion but to retire.
“It’s not how I dreamt of ending my career,” the 34-year-old Moya said during an emotional news conference.
Moya said he knew it was time after his last match, a 6-0, 6-2 loss to Benjamin Becker at the Madrid Masters in May.
“I wanted to play the big tourna-ments and say goodbye but I got to the Madrid tournament and I still wasn’t 100 percent but moti-vation pushed me on,” Moya said. “But I realized with that match that the moment had arrived.”
Moya won 20 ATP titles, in-cluding the 1998 French Open.
He was the first unseeded finalist in 16 years at the 1997 Australian Open, but fell to top-ranked Pete Sampras. His last title came in Croatia in 2007.
He became the first Spaniard to become No. 1 in the rankings in March 1999.
After leading Spain to the 2003 Davis Cup final, he spearheaded the team to the 2004 title, beating Andy Roddick to clinch the final in his last tie.
He was an early training partner of Rafael Nadal. Both hail from the island of Mallorca.
Former players Manolo San-tana, Albert Costa and Carlos Costa were all on hand for the an-nouncement.
“I’ll keep on with my gym in Mallorca. I have a sports business and I’ll dedicate more time to my wife, my daughter and my family (now),” Moya said of his future. “I’ll definitely miss tennis, how-ever.”

Porter broke free from Sharks defenseman Kent Huskins and beat goalie Antero Niittymaki with a
low shot as Porter was tumbling to the ice.
Trailing 3-1 midway through the third period, the Avalanche tied up the game on goals from Chris Stew-art and Paul Stastny.
Kevin Shattenkirk also scored for the Avalanche, his first NHL goal.
Peter Budaj finished with 40 saves, including a flurry in the closing sec-onds of regulation.
Logan Couture, Dan Boyle and Mike Moore added goals for the Sharks, who had their winning streak halted at three games.

and snowboarders will have access to the following lifts and portions of terrain in these areas on Vail Mountain:
• Avanti Express Lift (#2) • Wildwood Express Lift (#3) • Mountaintop Express Lift (#4) • Game Creek Express Lift (#7) • Born Free Express Lift (#8) • Northwoods Express Lift (#11) • Little Eagle Lift (#15) • Vista Bahn Express Lift (#16) • Eagle Bahn Gondola (#19)Additional terrain will open to the
public as soon as conditions and weather permit. Both the Lionshead and Vail Vil-lage base areas will be open including lift ticket/season pass and ski school offices. The Small World Nursery will be open at the Golden Peak Children’s Center.
Eagle’s Nest, Buffalo’s, Wildwood and the Look Ma level of Mid-Vail will be open for on-mountain dining beginning Friday. Express Lift at Mountain Plaza will also be open.
Vail will celebrate opening day by of-
fering $1 breakfast burritos again this year, as well as complimentary hot co-coa, Muscle Milk samples and other giveaways throughout the day, all at the base of the Eagle Bahn Gondola (#19) in Lionshead and the base of the Vista Bahn Express Lift (#16) in Vail Village.
Skiers and riders are asked to observe all posted signs and closures, especially during the early season. Closed trails may contain hazards due to early snow coverage. Crossing an on-mountain clo-sure is a violation of the Colorado Ski Safety Act and will result in the loss of skiing privileges and could involve pros-ecution and a fine of up to $1,000.
Paid parking in the Town of Vail’s parking structures and outlying lots re-sumes Friday, Nov. 19 at 6 a.m. Park-ing is also available at Solaris and valet parking is available at the Arrabelle at Vail Square.
Big Gigantic opening dayThe biggest, most gigantic opening
day in Vail in years will be accompanied by a perfectly named band to celebrate the occasion. On Friday afternoon, front-range band Big Gigantic will play a free show in Lionshead to celebrate the com-mencing of the ski season in Vail. Big Gigantic showcases an array of grip-ping composition, combining elements of a DJ and a live band setup. Made up of saxophonist Dominic Lalli from The Motet and drummer Jeremy Salken, the band “flavors the electronic music scene with powerful sax solos and soulful synth lines on top of super hot beats,” their promotional material says. The show is scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. at Vail Square in Lionshead.
VR: Epic Pass only available until Sunday
Vail Resorts says the Epic Pass is only available for a few more days, and this time we believe them. On the table un-til Sunday for $629, the Epic Pass offers unlimited, unrestricted skiing and riding
at all six Vail Resorts mountains – Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone, Heavenly and Northstar-at-Tahoe – as well as at Arapahoe Basin and Sierra-at-Tahoe.
Northstar-at-Tahoe was the most re-cent addition to the Vail Resorts family of ski hills, yesterday the company an-nounced the appointment of Bill Rock as the new chief operating officer of that resort. Rock will assume responsibility for all mountain and village operations associated with Northstar-at-Tahoe and will report directly to Blaise Carrig, co-president of Vail Resorts’ Mountain Di-vision.
Rock joins Vail Resorts from In-trawest’s Snowshoe Mountain Resort in W.V., where he was president and chief operating officer since 2005. He also has simultaneously served as president of Intrawest Spain since 2009, overseeing operations of the Madrid SnowZone.
freshies, and she was loving every minute of it. “The more I freeski, the better I race,” she said. “And
I hadn’t been able to do any freesking in a while … It felt incredible.”
Ghent 5th in GSSchleper wasn’t the only Vail native to have a good
result at Copper. The day before, Abby Ghent took fifth at the giant slalom FIS race there. Ghent and Schleper are both former Ski and Snowboard Club Vail racers;
Schleper had good things to say about the 18-year-old development team skier.
“I think she’s an incredible GS skier; I was really im-pressed with her when we were training together this summer,” Schleper said. The two trained together at Mt. Hood a few months ago.
“She’s got the eye of the tiger; she’s definitely a race horse ... I’m looking forward to watching her career and skiing with her,” Schleper said of Ghent.
Ghent said while she has done a fair amount of train-
ing at Copper, she had never raced there before and was happy with her finish.
“It was a pretty slow first run, the second run was much faster for everybody,” Ghent said yesterday. “There was one really technical part of the course, but I got through it and was happy with the finish.”
That race was won by none other than Kiley Staples, the good-luck gator designer herself. E-mail [email protected] to get yourself one of the Schleper-endorsed, fleece lined, bandana-style gators.

or other structures and those regulating the time fires are allowed.
“If they want to go out there and roast marshmallows at 10 o’clock in the morning, who cares? To me this is way beyond what we need. Way, way beyond what we need,” Flattery said.
The general consensus by the council was that they would like to see some fire
guidelines, but that permits should not be required.
After hearing from the council, Town Manager Jim White clarified that the current codes do not allow any open burning at all without a permit in Min-turn. He also said numerous problems had demonstrated a need for some firm rules for fires.
“The culture here in town is that peo-ple do like them, but not everybody is safe and reasonable and smart,” White said.
An update to Minturn’s open burning codes has been in the works for about three months, White said. It came to a head at a council meeting last month, when more than a dozen locals showed
up to weigh in. At that meeting, the over-whelming majority of people told the council they didn’t want to see any more onerous open burning regulations.
Cerimele said he plans to put a revised version of the regulations before the council at their next meeting on Dec. 1.
