THE UPDATE

Call it a Lego lover’s approach to a new parking structure.

Avon resident Jon Becker has invented a 750-space metal grill parking structure that could sit five feet off the ground in Ford Park in the winter.

In the summer, the structure would be dismantled and stored for an estimated $350,000. The structure would pay for itself, based on cost estimates from Becker and colleague Harvey Robert-son, a principal at RMT Architects.

“We’re the best ski town in the world with the most bush-league parking,” Becker said. “This is more convenience for your customers to get to the lift.”

Becker has pitched his idea to town of-ficials and to Vail Resorts, but so far, no one seems interested.

“It’s worth offering the option to peo-ple to let them understand that you don’t have to build a huge concrete mess,” Becker said. “When you see the pictures of what we’re proposing, not only is it not expensive, but it’s pretty good look-ing.”

Vail officials plan to discuss a Ford

Park parking study on Oct. 20 that could discuss building a parking structure un-derneath the playing fields. A series of three related parking studies is expected to cost the town $250,000 or so.

In addition, Vail’s parking committee earlier this week discussed a new plan to sell parking passes to Vail workers for the North Frontage Road — a plan that would presumably free up more of Vail’s 2,200 or so parking garage spaces to keep cars from overflowing onto the South Frontage Road.

Investors retreated further from stocks Friday as the pile of disappointing economic reports grew larger. A mod-est slide left stocks lower for a second week, the first consecutive drop since July. On Friday, the Dow Jones industri-al average fell 21.61, or 0.2 percent, to 9,487.67; the Standard & Poor’s 500 in-dex fell 4.64, or 0.5 percent, to 1,025.21; the Nasdaq composite index fell 9.37, or 0.5 percent, to 2,048.11.

God invented chrome, which explains why Cars and Coffee meets Sunday mornings.

Cars and Coffee is an all-comers car confab at which any cool car is welcome. If you think it’s cool, it’s cool enough, says organizer Don Welch.

“There’s no fee. Just show up and enjoy yourself,” Welch said. “It’s a chance to release your inner gear-head.”

They’ve been experimenting with different locations. This Sunday it’s 8:30-11 a.m. in Vail Village, by the Covered Bridge.

Because it starts at 8:30 a.m. and because God loves you, you’ll have time to pay proper tribute to cool cars, and still make church. Because, as any gearhead can tell you, paying tribute to cool cars on a beautiful day is pretty much a religious experience.

And besides, this is still America. We invented rock & roll and the V-8 engine.

Welch will be there with his Shelby Mustang. You’ll find Corvettes, Ford Model A hot rods, Ferraris, Porsches.

“Everything from a Ferrari to a Ford pickup truck, and everything in between,” said Mike Rose, who’s helping organize this one.

Rose will be tooling up in his pristine 1968 Camaro.“If it goes fast and you don’t see them around much,

we probably have one,” said Rose. “There are a bunch of people around with cars and we’d like to get the word out to them.”

This is the fifth local Cars and Coffee this summer. They’ve rolled through Eagle and Edwards, and the Vail confab is the summer’s last. They’ll start again next spring.

Cars and Coffee are weekly grass roots auto shows that are popping up all over the country. It started in 2005 in Irvine, Calif.

A couple California car lovers saw the need for an organized, centralized location, staked out some space in a parking lot and invited a few buddies for a little early morning conversation. A few weeks later, Cars and Coffee had a drawn a crowd.

Besides the weekly gatherings, there’s an online community that sees almost 100,000 page views per month.

Saturday, October 3, 2009 Vail Mountaineer 3

Around 1400 youth soccer players and a few thou-sand more family and friends will inundate the valley once again for the annual Vail Valley Soccer Cup. The tournament, which began many years ago as the Vail Valley Challenge cup, is specifically designed for Clas-sic and Challenge competitive leagues and as such, it has only added to the popularity. Premiere (first divi-sion) teams don’t participate.

Up to 70 referees from around the state, some joined by their families, will also add to the numbers.

The tournament has also left a good impression over the years on participants, and it has helped with a repu-tation not only as a friendly tournament, but a friendly valley. The stereotype ugliness of some competitions has been historically absent, instead good sportsman-ship and behavior in a fun and memorable atmosphere reigns.

There are 79 teams from all over Colorado, and the Wyoming 307 club from Gillette is sending a U14 boys team.

Area boys teams did very well last year, with the Vail Crush club taking first place in U12 and U14 boys, and a second in U13 boys, and a third in U10 boys.

The tournament began many years ago as the Vail Valley Challenge Cup. Former Vail Valley Soccer Club president Cindy Eskwith and the club put in a lot of effort over the seasons to found and develop the tourna-ment, and it quickly grew to a big tournament that not only has brought large numbers of people to the valley over the weekend, it also has been estimated that its positive economic impact locally has exceeded a mil-lion dollars each year (see related article).

Games will be played at Ford Park and Golden Peak in Vail, the upper and lower Avon fields at Notting-ham Park, and Freedom Park and BMHS in Edwards. With more fields upvalley now, fields in Eagle are no longer needed, making things run more smoothly, not just for teams, but for referees that in the past have had to scramble more to make games in the complicated schedule.

According to Tournament Director Jodi Teague, it has required the help of around 100 volunteers, and numer-ous local sponsors are contributing in various ways.

The tournament is one of the most popular in the state, with a fantastic fall setting, and for many, the chance to get away from the Front Range and play in cooler weather in the mountains. If you like soccer, it is also a chance to see some very good play under fore-cast good sunny October weather.

Soccer fever hits ValleyVail Valley Soccer Cup begins today at Ford Park

The Vail Valley Soccer Club U-12 boys team, the “Vail Crush” won their toughest game yet in Denver last Saturday on this winning goal by Donnie Leavitt. The inset photo shows Donnie being congratulated by Dylan Cunningham and Sebastian Avila while the distraught opponent reacts. The Vail team was down 2-0 at halftime and rallied to come back in a stunning upset 5-3! Coach Hayden Scott attributes the team’s conditioning as the key element in their victory. Rex Keep photos.

A bill that would designate more than 9 million acres in southern Utah as wilderness hit congress Thursday.

The America’s Red Rocks Wilderness Act is taking the same path that Hidden Gems hopes to follow later this year.

Hidden Gems is a coalition of Colorado wilder-ness advocates. The Colorado group hopes to have a bill designating more than 600,000 acres of new wil-derness to congress by the end of the year. They’re still meeting with local groups trying to hammer out boundaries for new wilderness areas in Eagle, Summit and Gunnison counties.

The Utah package would designate as wilderness places like Cedar Mesa, the San Rafael Swell, the Green River and the West Desert.

America’s Red Rock Wilderness Act was first intro-duced in Congress in 1989. Advocates say the areas are threatened by oil and gas drilling, uranium and other mineral mining, roads and off-road vehicle use.

Almost 4,000 opponents turned out this week in Salt Lake City to protest the package, according to the organization Take Back Utah.

“We want this movement to sweep the western United States,” the group said in a written statement. “We know this is something that neighboring states need.”

Supporters say they’re taking the long view.“Oil and gas interests have tried and tried again

to get their hands on Utah’s most valuable pristine lands,” said Sharon Buccino, Director the Lands and Wildlife Program at the Natural Resources Defense

Council. “We believe wilderness is central to our na-tion’s natural heritage. Future generations deserve to enjoy it as we have.”

The local angleLocally, wilderness advocates writing a bill to add

400,000 acres of wilderness want to introduce it to Congress by the end of the year.

Hidden Gems wants to immediately add 400,000 acres of wilderness in two national forests.

Of those, 204,907 acres are in Eagle County. An ad-ditional 300,000 acres is possible in the future.

Advocates say the time is now, that no one’s making any more wilderness and it should be preserved while that’s still possible.

Opponents call it a land grab and say it’s designed to ban motorized national forest users and mountain bikes from wilderness areas.

Political winds are blowingIt would take about a year for either wilderness bill

to make its way through congress, and the timing is not lost on either side. Colorado’s congressional del-egation is dominated by Democrats sympathetic to the wilderness cause, a situation that could change with the 2010 election – and both opponents and support-ers know that.

Boulder Democrat Jared Polis has expressed sup-port for the proposal. He represents Eagle County and the 2nd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. Western Slope Democrat John Sala-zar has also expressed tentative support. He represents the 3rd Congressional District.

The proposed new wilderness areas are in their dis-tricts.

New health hazard signs at abandoned Gilman mineArsenic, asbestos contaminate EPA site

The Gilman mine is a superfund site, as in an aban-doned waste location requiring clean up of hazardous substances that may endanger public health.

That’s not to be confused with a super fun site, like Vail’s China Bowl.

A security officer will be on patrol and signs outlin-ing human health hazards in English and in Spanish will be posted in and around the EPA Superfund site about two miles south of Minturn in the near future.

Crave Real Estate officials now overseeing the site told Environmental Protection Agency officials about the new signs this week. A company spokesman did not return a call for comment. Crave has taken over as developer of the 5,000-acre private ski area plan for Battle Mountain. CBS Corp. is responsible for the EPA Superfund property in question following a series of mergers and takeovers.

“It appears to me that Crave is taking steps to address [concerns]. They’re being responsive, which I think is good,” Jim White, Minturn town manager.

Arsenic and asbestos are still contaminants at the EPA site, said Warren Smith, a spokesman for the hazardous materials and waste management division of the Colo-rado Department of Public Health and Environment.

New signs on old tailings pile“Some signs have gone up around the old tailings

pile,” Smith said. “They are going to be putting up the signs that spell out the health risks and the dangers.”

Cadmium at the site also can be hazardous to humans, according to an environmental consultant following the clean-up.

More than $70 million has been spent on clean-up in and around the old buildings at Belden and Gilman.

“There are often people camping out, there,” Smith said. “On one site visit, (public health officials) found a child sliding down the tailings debris.”

Minturn Police Chief Lorenzo Martinez said he’s happy to hear there’s a new emphasis on security at the site after months of asking for more help. Martinez has asked for a new police officer to help with an increase in town police calls, including the calls police now han-dle on the annexed Battle Mountain land that used to be handled by Eagle County Sheriff’s deputies.

Two big-name movies were filmed at the Belden

mine site in the 1990s: “Tall Tale,” with the late Pat-rick Swayze and “Under Seige 2: Dark Territory” with Steven Seagal.

Second Journeys in Living Spirituality event is today

The second Journeys in Living Spirituality will be held this Sat-urday, October 3 from 3:30 to 5pm at the Avon Library Community Room. This week’s topic will be on “Living Spiritual Relationships.”

“Relationships are our mirror into how we are or are not living a spiritual life. They reflect back to us what it is we are putting out into the world,” states Zeeb. “If, for example, you’ve not learned boundaries, you may experience re-lationships that are constantly test-ing your boundaries – and without boundaries, you may feel used by

others. Another example could be that you believe a relationship is more than it truly is, leaving you feeling insecure, jealous or feeling like a victim.”

The Directors/Pastors of Jour-neys in Living Spirituality are Nar-da Reigel and Rev. Catherine Zeeb, PhD. Reigel is a Certified Spiritual Director trained in the Vincentian Model of Spirituality from the Cen-ter for Spirituality at Work in Den-ver. Rev. Catherine Zeeb, PhD, is ordained through the Metaphysical Universal Ministries, Pennsylvania. She is a local therapist specializing in Spiritual Counseling, Marriage & Family Counseling, and Addic-

tion Counseling as well as a variety of healing modalities and ceremony services.

Journeys in Living Spirituality will meet on the 1st and 3rd Sat-urdays of each month from 3:30 to 5pm at the Avon Library com-munity room. “The next session of Journeys in Living Spirituality will be held on October 17 and the dis-cussion will be on “Living with In-tention,” reports Reigel.

You can contact Reigel at 970-376-3268 or Zeeb at 970-376-6660 or visit her website, www.healing-spirits.net, for fur-ther information or questions about Journeys in Living Spirituality.

On October 1, 2009 at approximately 9:05 p.m., the Eagle County Sheriff’s Office (ECSO) received a re-port of an armed robbery at Edwards Liquors located at 429 Edwards Access Road, Unit A204.

Edwards Liquors is one of the only liquor stores in the Valley to stay open past 10 p.m. with a closing time of 11 p.m. on week nights.

The suspect is described as being a white male, be-tween 5’7” – 5’9” tall, weighing between 170-180 pounds with a medium build, with no visible scars or tattoos, and at the time of the incident was wearing a grey AC/DC hooded sweatshirt.

The suspect produced what appeared to be a gun, demanded money and threatened to shoot the store’s

clerk. And shoot him he did, multiple times. Thank-fully the gun was only a BB gun, but before leaving he also sprayed the clerk with pepper spray. The suspect tried to grab the register drawers but was unable to get to them. The suspect fled in what appeared to be an older model brown vehicle that was last seen headed south on Edwards Access Road.

If you think you may have any information about the suspects or this crime, you are asked to call the Eagle County Sheriff’s Office at 328-8500 or Eagle County Crime Stoppers at 328-7007, 1-800-972-TIPS, or by submitting your tip online at www.tipsubmit.com. If your tip leads to the arrest and indictment of any sus-pect involved, you could earn up to a $1,000 reward from the Crime Stoppers.

Determine reasons for behavior problems, learning diffi culties, attention problems, and motivation concerns.


The year was 2004 and Eagle was beginning to gain traction among locals as a viable and affordable alter-native to Eagle County residents. Nevertheless, what little activity there was, was relegated to old downtown Eagle and if you wanted to have a bowling party for your kids or just roll a few frames it meant a long drive to the next county.

It was around that time that a new concept in fam-ily entertainment arrived on the scene. A state of the art bowling center with computerized scoring systems, automatic gutter guards for kids, a giant game arcade and a fine-casual café and sports lounge, complete with high definition TV’s, pool tables and more.

The Back Bowl Family Entertainment Center cele-brates 5 years of business this month. It has since been touted by many as the most incredible bowling alley they’ve ever seen, breaking the stereotype most expect from a bowling alley. With a clean, smoke-free, con-temporary interior, dazzling lighting and an amazing sound system, The Back Bowl has won or been nomi-nated for numerous industry and business awards over those years, including: ‘Best New Business’, ‘Business of the Year’, ‘Best Bowling Center Interior’ and ‘Best Lounge & Restaurant’ from Bowler’s Journal Interna-tional.

General Manager Doug Cahill says the original vi-sion of the Back Bowl remains intact. ”Our vision was to reach out to people looking for a fun, high-energy environment for their family entertainment.” Cahill continues, ”Judging by the sights and sounds of the many families and groups we see on a daily basis, I think we can safely say that we’ve achieved our goal.”

In addition to it’s 20 state of the art lanes, the Bowl-mor Café and Lounge continues to break the mold, by offering an eclectic blend of creative fine casual foods in addition to the traditional bowling alley fare. The sports lounge provides the best in satellite sports view-ing – all on plasma screens – as well as live entertain-ment, including the popular ‘Comedy Night at the Bowlmor’ live comedy series, karaoke and live music.

Beginning this weekend, as part of it’s October 5-year anniversary celebration to thank the Eagle County resi-dents for their support in rediscovering their love of bowling, The Back Bowl will be offering 20 percent off all regular bowling and shoe rental rates with local I.D.

“We want to show our appreciation to the people who have supported us and enabled us to reach this mile-stone,” says Cahill.

If you have a space of your own, chances are there’s some area of it lacking in illumination, accent or deco-rum.

Everyone who walks through the doors of Nest Fur-nishings in Avon’s Chapel Square will find a little some-thing to decorate and brighten their home’s design.

“Nest is a new experience every time you walk through the door,” said owner Patty Cuny. A continu-ously changing cycle of furnishings makes it necessary to visit Nest often.

Customer Judy Johnson, who has hangs her hat in both Larkspur, Colo. and just outside Silverthorne, rec-ommends Nest to all her friends.

“Every time we come up, or I have company coming, I recommend they stop in, I have been coming here since she opened” said Johnson. “I have bought some of my most fun stuff here, it’s truly Colorado’s best kept secret.”

Former part owner of Treasures, Cuny opened Nest opened two and a half years ago with Judy Conklin.

“We just thought the valley was in need of a better resource for consignment and thought we’d do a high end version,” said Cuny. “I’ve always shopped con-signment and enjoyed finding those unique pieces…and there are so many people in the Valley reinventing their living spaces.”

Nest offers a gamut of great deals on designer and eclectic name brands from a set of Louis Vutton suit-cases and a Ludwig Hohlwein print to practical sofa and sleepers and mirrored armoires.

Since the store’s opening, Nest has undergone a few makeovers and additions, the most recent being that Cuny bought out Conklin so she could spend more time with her family in Florida.

In addition, the Nest showroom has expanded to in-clude a 5,000 square foot second floor addition dubbed “The Loft,” making the store a total of 10,000 square feet of head to toe deals.

With a personal flair for individualized customer ser-vice, Nest has become quite famous for serving home baked cookies to customers, an extra bonus they plan to heat up again this winter, one that customers in the store rave about.

“My husband just loves the cookies,” said Johnson.Nest consigns furniture and designer items strictly

from the homes of valley residents, even reserving spe-cial up front counter space to showcase local artists.

You can pick up a CD from local musician Pat Ham-ilton, hand sewn Rocky Mountain Heat Pads by Jodi Sforzo of Edwards, lazered ski signs by Bart Gunder-son of Avon and gift cards from Libuse Petrova made from nature shots by her husband and once sold in their Frisco art gallery.

“We’d love to do more of his, so local artists, bring in your stuff,” says Cuny.

Nest offers free pickup of items from Vail to Gypsum.

“So often we’ll get people who just bought a house completely furnished and they don’t want any of it, or someone that just wants to change a few things,” said Cuny. “We come out and preview the pieces before they come in to the store and we schedule a free pickup, it comes in and we price it and sell it.”

Most of the items Nest doesn’t sell stay in the econ-omy of the Valley, as Cuny donates them to either The Thrifty Shop in Edwards or Habitat Home Outlet in Gypsum.

There’s quite a lot of recycling that goes on here in the store, not only because what some people think is useless other see as something new and exciting pieces for their home,” said Cuny. “When we’ve done our best to sell something, but it has reached its expiration pe-riod, we donate them.”

If you stop into Nest, be sure and hit Threads by Out-back Steakhouse, which is loosely affiliated.

Threads is a consignment clothing store that used to be a part of Nest, but has recently branched out into its own store and owner Krist Pittman is in the process of a grand remodel.

“Threads kind of grew out of Nest to complete our consignment desires because clothing is very popular part of the consignment experience,” said Cuny.

The Nest continues to evolve Avon shop has furnishings plucked from Valley homes

Nest owner Patty Cuny and assistant Jodi Sforzo are the friendly, personable smiles behind the Avon consignment store. The shop recently expanded to include a 5,000 square foot second floor show-room dubbed “The Loft,” while its partner cloth-ing consignment store Threads has moved into its own space across the parking lot in Avon’s Chapel Square.

And, yes, it didn’t help that South America had never had an Olympics.

Chicago’s leaders left here the same way they came in: convinced they had the best plan to host the 2016 Olympics. If only that was all that mattered in Olympic politics.

Turns out the Second City never had a chance, writes the AP’s Tim Dahlberg. They got 18 votes. That’s right, 18 stinkin’ votes. Hardly worth even gassing up Air Force One — a cool $1 million 14-hour trip. Actually, embarrassing might be too mild to describe this Olym-pic-sized whipping. Humiliating would be more like it, writes Dahlberg.

Having turned a seemingly deaf ear to Obama’s en-thusiastic endorsement, the IOC on Friday sent the games of the 31st Olympiad to Brazil’s bustling, fun-loving but crime-ridden city of beaches and mountains, romance and slums – Rio de Janeiro.

“It is Brazil’s time,” said the country’s charismatic president, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. The win was de-cisive: Rio beat Madrid by 66 votes to 32. Olympians, we’ll see you on Copacabana beach in 2016. Let Car-nival begin.

Dutch treat Detroit-styleA Detroit man has been sentenced to at least two years

in prison for stealing a woman’s car after skipping out on the check during their first date. Twenty-four-year-old Terrance McCoy was sentenced Friday in Oakland County Circuit Court to two to 10 years in prison.

McCoy pleaded no contest Sept. 18 to unlawfully driving away a vehicle. A no-contest plea is not an ad-mission of guilt but is treated as a conviction at sen-tencing.

Police say McCoy dined with the 27-year-old South-field woman on April 24 at a restaurant in Ferndale. The woman told investigators McCoy said he forgot his wallet in her car and asked for the keys. Police say McCoy then took off in the car.

Defense attorney Terri Antisdale says McCoy is a “very nice man who made a bad decision.”

Evidence of Roman settlement found in LA

Film director Roman Polanski agreed to pay his sex-ual assault victim $500,000 to settle a lawsuit 15 years after he fled the United States, according to court docu-ments made available to media outlets Friday in a Los Angeles courthouse.

Polanski and the victim, Samantha Geimer, reached the deal in October 1993. The terms of the settlement were confidential, but the amount was disclosed in court documents because of a two-year struggle to get Polanski to pay.

Court records do not indicate if Polanski, now 76, ever paid. The last court filing in August 1996 shows Polanski owed Geimer $604,416.22, including inter-est.

Polanski’s attorney, David Finkle, said he couldn’t

remember details of the case and declined comment.“It’s ancient,” Finkle said.

Ghost of Monica stalks Letterman

Since David Letterman went public about having sex with members on his staff, one of his myriad humilia-tions is having all those millions of “sex with interns” jokes he made about Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky turned back at him, writes Gawker’s Brian Moylan.

Gawker.com remembers the late ‘90s as a heady time for the late-night monologist, with all the easy jokes about stained blue dresses and cigars. Letterman made such a franchise out of it, he had a hard time letting the convention die, writes Moylan. Now that every-one knows he’s been guilty of the same behavior with members of his own staff, he’s going to have to endure the sting of the same jibes from Leno, O’Brien, Fallon, and even poor, forgotten Kimmel.

U.S. non-farm payrolls plunge 263,000 in Sept.

U.S. employers cut a deeper-than-expected 263,000 jobs in September, lifting the unemployment rate to 9.8 percent, according to a government report on Friday that fueled fears the weak labor market could under-mine economic recovery, reports the Reuters news agency. The Labor Department said the unemployment rate was the highest since June 1983 and payrolls had now dropped for 21 consecutive months.

Analysts polled by Reuters had expected non-farm payrolls to drop 180,000 in September and the unem-ployment rate to rise to 9.8 percent from 9.7 percent the prior month, according to the report. The poll was conducted before reports, including regional manufac-turing surveys, showed some deterioration in employ-ment measures.

The government revised job losses for July and Au-gust to show 13,000 more jobs lost than previously reported. Preliminary annual benchmark revisions, re-

leased together with September’s employment report showed that total non-farm payroll employment for March would have to be revised down about 824,000.

Record cold in DenverFor the first time this fall, the Front Range woke up

yesterday morning to freezing temperatures. It was cold enough in Denver to break a record, reports The Denver Post.

The combination of the calming winds and clearing skies made for a unseasonably cold morning through-out Colorado today.

9NEWS Meteorologist Becky Ditchfield says Den-ver had its first official freeze of the season: The tem-perature at Denver International Airport dipped to 27 degrees just before 5 a.m. This was low enough to set a new record low for Oct. 2. The old record low had been 30 degrees set in 1999, according to the report.

Record cold in MichiganIt was colder this morning in Port Huron than it has

been in more than seven decades, according to The Times Herald newspaper.

The Port Huron waste water treatment plant recorded a temperature of 32 degrees at 8 a.m., one degree colder than the record low set Oct. 1, 1935, according to infor-mation from the National Weather Service in Oakland County’s White Lake Township, reports The Herald.

Amos Dodson, a weather service meteorologist, was quoted saying no records were broken elsewhere, in-cluding at Detroit Metro Airport in Romulus and in Flint.

Obama meets with top Afghan war commander

At a pivotal point in the administration’s Afghanistan strategy, President Barack Obama and his top Afghan war commander met privately aboard Air Force One Friday for a talk the White House described as produc-tive.

The 25-minute meeting with Army Gen. Stanley Mc-Chrystal, aboard Air Force One as it waited to carry the president home from Denmark, gave Obama a chance to step outside the circle of advisers he has convened to study the problem of Afghanistan. His war council has been sharing differing opinions on whether the U.S. should send thousands more troops to tamp down the Taliban, or shift to a narrower focus on al-Qaida in neighboring Pakistan.

The Copenhagen meeting was an extension of those war council sessions “as we reassess and re-evaluate moving forward in Afghanistan,” White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters afterward.

He said Obama and McChrystal “both agree that this is a helpful process.” No decisions were made at their meeting, Gibbs said.

Hours after Obama and McChrystal met, the Pen-tagon said that the general’s official request for more troops for the war will not be sent to the White House

Senate Finance Committee Democrat calls

health bill ‘gibberish’Sen. Thomas Carper (D.-Del.), a member of the Sen-

ate Finance Committee, reportedly told CNSNews.com that he does not “expect” to read the actual legislative language of the committee’s health care bill because it is “confusing” and that anyone who claims they are go-ing to read it and understand it is fooling people.

“I don’t expect to actually read the legislative lan-guage because reading the legislative language is among the more confusing things I’ve ever read in my life,” Carper was quoted telling CNSNews.com.

Carper reportedly described the type of language the actual text of the bill would finally be drafted in as “arcane,” “confusing,” “hard stuff to understand,” and “incomprehensible.” According to CNSNews.com, he likened it to the “gibberish” used in credit card disclo-sure forms.

‘I’ll be back’ line coming to life

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said on Thursday that movie director Roman Polanski should

be treated like anyone else if he came to the United States to face sentencing for having unlawful sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1977, according to the Reuters news agency.

Asked if he would con-sider pardoning Polanski, the actor-turned-governor reportedly told CNN: “I would not treat his situa-tion any differently than everyone else’s.”

Schwarzenegger would have the authority as California governor to grant Polanski a pardon, if asked, once the “Chi-

natown” director is extradited from Switzerland where he was arrested this weekend on a U.S. warrant, writes Reuters’ Jill Serjeant.

Polanski, who has dual French and Polish national-ity, fled the United States in 1978 after pleading guilty in a California court to unlawful sex with a minor. He served 42 days in a prison, but left the country when he believed a judge would sentence him to years behind bars despite having made a plea agreement for time al-ready served, reports Serjeant.

According to Reuters, his lawyers have said he will fight extradition.

Pop star finds new BrandPop star Katy Perry is the latest beauty to fall for the

charms of comic Russell Brand, reports The San Fran-cisco Chronicle. She was reportedly whisked away on a romantic trip to Thailand with the British funnyman.

The pair was rumored to have hooked up at last month’s MTV Video Music Awards in New York.

But things heated up after Brand sent the singer a poem, and when asked to reply with an equally melodic verse, Perry sent back a snap of her cleavage embla-zoned with the words “poem”, The Chronicle reports.

And the duo got on so well that they decided to jet to Thailand for a romantic break, according to Britain’s The Sun newspaper.

A source reportedly tells the publication, “Russell has fancied Katy for ages. When they were both in New York for the music awards, Russell finally got his chance to work his charm on her.

Gov. Bill Ritter didn’t waste any time labeling October as “Rocktober” in honor of the Rockies clinching a playoff spot. Players celebrate in this pic-ture from Thursday’s game.

After the Rockies’ 9-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday, it didn’t take Gov. Bill Ritter long to pro-claim October as “Rocktober” in honor of the team’s advance to the playoffs.

The Rockies clinched their second playoff berth in three years and kept their NL pennant hopes alive by knock-ing off Milwaukee in the series finale Thursday afternoon. Prior to the start

of their game Friday night, Colorado could still catch the Dodgers for the NL West pennant if the Rockies sweep a weekend series in Los Angeles.

Ritter pumped the state up in similar fashion two years ago when the term “Rocktober” was born on the team’s way to its only appearance in the World Series.

‘Rocktober’has arrived Tiger Woods has become the first

athlete to surpass $1 billion in career earnings according to a recent article in Forbes magazine.

The magazine estimates that golf’s top-ranked player crested the plateau when he earned $10 million for win-ning the FedEx Cup last Sunday.

Forbes reported on its Web site on Tuesday that Woods entered 2009 hav-ing earned $895 million since he joined

the PGA Tour in 1996. Prize money, appearance fees, endorsement fees, bo-nuses and his golf course design busi-ness were calculated to have pushed him over $1 billion.

The magazine says former NBA great Michael Jordan and former Formula One driver Michael Schumacher, at $800 million and $700 million, respec-tively, are Woods’ closest competition in career earnings.

According to Forbes magazine, Tiger Woods recent $10 million bump re-ceived from winning the FedEx Cup made him the first athlete in history to top the $1 billion mark in career earnings.

Sharapova to face JankovicFinals are set for Toray Pan Pacific in Japan

Maria Sharapova has struggled since returning from a 10-month injury layoff, but after a win in Tokyo at the semifinals of the Toray Pan Pacific, Sharapova is looking to write another chapter in her story of strong performances in Japan.

Maria Sharapova will have a chance to add to two previous career successes in Japan after advancing Fri-day with a 6-3, 2-6, 6-4 win over Agnieszka Radwans-ka of Poland. Radwanska saved two match points in the final game to pull back to 30-40 but Sharapova closed out the match with a crosscourt backhand.

The Russian will face seventh-seeded Jelena Jank-ovic of Serbia in Saturday’s final at Ariake Colosseum, hoping to break a title drought that extends back to April last year. She has won four of her previous five matches against Jankovic, who defeated China’s Li Na 6-4, 6-3 in Friday’s other semifinal.

“She’s a very solid player,” Sharapova said of Jank-ovic. “She’s a great mover and makes you hit a lot of balls. The points are never easy so it will be a tough match.”

Jankovic, the highest seeded player left in the tournament, said she was looking forward to facing Sharapova.

“It will be a difficult match,” Jankovic said. “She is a strong hitter. I haven’t played her in a while and don’t know how she is playing so it will be an inter-esting match.”

Top-ranked Dinara Safina of Russia, Venus Williams and French Open champion Svetlana Kuznetsova all lost their opening matches after first-round byes.

Robber: I thought you trusted meHe could’ve at least brought a bb gun ...HAVERHILL, Mass. (AP) — Police say a Lawrence

man’s attempt to rob a convenience store was thwarted when a clerk demanded to see his gun.

Authorities said a flustered Adam Alsarabi fled from the White Hen Pantry in Haverhill and later was caught in the woods by police. No gun was found on him.

Police reports said the 22-year-old entered the store about 12:45 a.m. Friday, and told the clerk to give him money and that he had a gun.

The clerk said he could have the money, but had to show the gun first.

Police said Alsarabi then ran out of the store and into the woods.

He pleaded not guilty Friday in Haverhill District Court to trespassing, resisting arrest and attempting to commit a crime.

It’s unclear if Alsarabi has hired an attorney.Moving along ...

new parking at Ford Park.Becker’s idea is to build a massive

cement caisson foundation underneath Ford Park that would anchor the tempo-rary structure in the winter. He estimates it would take three months or so to build, and that the caissons would be accessed through a series of one-foot circles on

the field.The structure would cost about

$15,000 per space to build, Becker said, or $11.25 million. Based on a 50 per-cent occupancy rate at $25 per day per space, the structure would break even at 25 years.

Avon resident Jon Becker wants Vail officials to consider his plan to build a temporary metal parking structure at Ford Park with 700 spaces.
