THE UPDATE

Last summer a Colorado judge opened the door to medical marijuana dispensa-ries in the state by ruling that more than five patients could receive treatment at a single facility.

Yesterday, the Eagle County Com-missioners took the final step to bring

the voters of Eagle County into that dis-cussion. The commissioners approved a resolution which will place a ques-tion on November’s ballot asking Eagle County residents if dispensaries should be allowed to operate in unincorporated county areas.

The commissioners have no jurisdic-tional powers over incorporated parts of the county, however the cities of Gyp-

sum, Vail and Avon have already banned dispensaries inside their city limits. The town of Minturn is planning to let resi-dents vote on allowing dispensaries to operate inside city limits in November. This could leave Eagle as the only city in the county where dispensaries could legally operate, as the council there has approved dispensaries within the city.

The county’s resolution approved the following language: “Shall medical mar-ijuana businesses be allowed to continue to operate in un-incorporated areas of Eagle County subject to regulations as determined by the board of county com-

missioners.”This language is similar to what the

town of Minturn is using. Minturn voters will vote on both the county’s question on dispensaries, as well as their own in November, which reads: “Shall the oper-ation and licensing of medical marijuana centers optional premises cultivation op-erations, and medical marijuana-infused products manufacturers be prohibited in the town of Minturn?”

The commissioners said the ballot question will be used like a straw poll to understand public opinion, and said it was a non-binding initiative. The coun-cil is planning on using the results of the election to guide its planning, if the vote is overwhelmingly against it they could be prohibited, and if it is overwhelming in favor the council would revisit current regulations.

Hustle’s front man returns to valleySean Healey playing Main Street Grill tonight with FGF’s Trevor Jones

By Chris HoffMountaineer Contributing Writer

The valley lost some of its Hustle last fall when Sean Healey and his family moved back to Boston to care for a sick family member. Tonight at Main Street Grill in Edwards, the Hus-tle vocalist/guitarist will play his first show back from hiatus alongside his buddy, Trevor Jones of Frogs Gone Fishin’.

At tonight’s show, which starts at 10 p.m., you’re likely to hear some of the music that Healey’s been writing while out of town, original Hustle and Frogs tunes and a few covers.

“It’s about more than playing music,” Trevor Jones said. “He’s a great friend. We love his family, and it’s great to have them back in Colorado.”

Because Healey wrote most of Hustle’s original music, the future of one of the valley’s favorite rock bands was very much doubtful when the Healeys indefinitely moved back East. The group, which has not played under the Hustle banner since then, recently announced a comeback show at Main Street Grill on October 1.

“I want the valley to be awesome for people who love mu-sic,” Healey said yesterday. “This valley is stronger than ever with the local talent, and I’m just really excited to be a part of that again.”

Hustle has been practicing at a top-secret studio in an undis-closed location, dialing in the old stuff and learning a couple new tunes in anticipation of the group’s resurgence.

Comprised of four down-valley locals, they have fashioned their own unique brand of jam-rock that often coincides with a pretty fun party.

Cordillera noise wall facing more delaysOriginally approved in 2007, wall requires 14 spruce trees

In May of 2007 the county commissioners gave initial approval for the construction of a noise abate-ment barrier along the north side of I-70 in Edwards, between the Cordillera Valley Club golf course and the freeway.

At the time of the approval, a number of conditions were placed on the project, and the commissioners didn’t give it final approval until December of 2009.

The original planned unit development, or PUD, re-quired 14 spruce trees, each 14-feet in height, to be in-stalled every 100 feet along the barrier. At yesterday’s meeting of the County Commissioners, Bob Narracci, community development planning manager for the county, explained the space available in some areas does not allow for this number of trees to be installed and reach a healthy maturity. The original approval also discussed a $20,000 fund that would be used to create a bike path, and would default to a county fund for trail development after one year if not used. That was period was extended when the commission gave final approval last December.

Narracci made a request yesterday for that deadline

to be extended another year.In 2007, the proposal was approved with a construc-

tion period of six months. The new proposal would ex-tend that to a five-year period, with construction taking place in phases throughout that time period.

Commissioner Peter Runyon expressed concern about the 2-year delay from 2007 to 2009. This was shared by the other commissioners.

Commissioner Jon Stavney expressed concerns about construction mitigation, and re-vegetation issues like dust and dirt blowing across I-70 if a project was left in a state of semi-completion.

Commissioner Sara Fisher was concerned about the lack of public input for the proposed changes.

“I don’t feel comfortable making changes, as minute as they might seem,” said Fisher. Her understanding, she stated, was the community wasn’t interested in a long construction period. She went on to explain that without understanding how comfortable the homeown-ers were with the changes, she wasn’t comfortable with said changes.

To take an opportunity to review the history, and re-open some of the issues which may have changed in the last three years, the matter was tabled until a future meeting.

Construction crews work on the Vail’s new fire station Tuesday. The new station will be located on the site occupied by the former Wendy’s restaurant in West Vail and is expected to cut response times by three and a half minutes across Vail, from 7:41 to 4 minutes, according to fire department studies. The town’s total budget for the project is $5 million, including $2 million the town paid for the site in 2007. The building will be 15,000-plus square feet equipped with three apparatus bays. It will house four on-duty personnel and up to 12 resident firefighters. The new station will be the new headquarters for Vail’s fire and emergency services and is expected to be operational by the end of the year.

Actively seeking iPhones Edwards/Gypsum retailer now providing Apple’s coveted device

You can now get an iPhone in Gypsum and Ed-wards.

Starting today, Active Communications will become an official iPhone retailer, filling a void for the exclu-sive Apple smartphone that could only be purchased here in Eagle County at Wal-Mart before today.

As of right now, an iPhone will only make calls if AT&T is your provider.

Since Active Communications is the largest AT&T authorized retailer in western Colorado, they will have the largest chunk of available iPhone stock, explains owner Anita Denboske.

But there’s already a waiting list.

“We’ve been taking a waiting list since we knew we were getting the phones, so the initial shipment of 30 is already spoken for,” said Denboske. “But we should be able to fill the waiting list within a week.”

If you want an iPhone from Active, Denboske rec-ommends you get on that list.

“I think we’ll be able to keep a steady supply because of our size,” she said.

The iPhone’s price will be the same at Active as it is at the Apple Store and everywhere else: $199 for a 16G phone with a 2-year contract.

Active Communications is open seven days per week with locations in Gypsum and Edwards.

Active Communications owner Anita Denboske, center, and staff are excited about becoming an authorized retailer of Apple’s iPhone, now available at their locations in Edwards and Gypsum. Avery Cunliffe photo.

NO MO’ MOJOLOCAL BIZ

Avon record store closes after 20 years

Mojo Music closed its doors for the final time yesterday after a solid 20-year run as an Avon record shop. Owner Shawn McKeown says he’s psyched to be opening up a music instrument store in Minturn later this month.

“It’s been crazy – really busy,” McKeown said yesterday. “Every-one has really come out and support-ed us since the article was published on the cover of the Mountaineer.”

He said people have been stop-ping by and sharing stories about the record store. Most people in the community are more attached to the store than McKeown, who’s owned the place for the last three years, but he feels bad for the longtime local customer, he said.

He was able to move about 75 percent of the store’s CD and DVD inventory; the remaining will be sold online.

In an industry that has become dominated by $1.29 iTunes singles, the Avon music store has been un-able to stay afloat as purely a record shop.

It’s a trend that McKeown says he researched before buying the business in 2007. The intent has always been to move towards sell-ing musical instruments and cater to

the growing vinyl industry, both of which he will continue to provide at his new shop in Minturn.

“I kind of knew this day would come,” McKeown said. “I had hoped to stay in this location, but it just hasn’t worked out that way.”

In 1989, the Avon music shop opened under the name Poor Rich-ard’s. 10 years later, during the height of the compact disc’s reign over the music industry, Jeff Sadler

bought the place, changed the name to Mojo Music and lit a bunch of incense.

Mckeown said when he acquired Mojo, he transformed the shop from one that relied almost entirely on media to one that is split 50-50 with instrument sales.

Eagle Valley Music and Comics in West Vail will be the last inde-pendently owned music shop in the Vail Valley.

Carlotta Walls LaNier poses for a photo outside of The Bookworm in Edwards last night. LaNier is in town for The Women’s Foundation of Colorado’s 2010 Vail Valley Luncheon, where she will appear as the keynote speaker today.

In 1957, at age 14, LaNier and eight other stu-dents integrated Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. This act of courage and defiance became the catalyst for change in the American educational system. Violent opposition threatened their safety

and motivated President Dwight D. Eisenhower to dispatch the Army’s 101st Airborne Division to pro-tect their constitutional rights. LaNier went on to graduate from Central High School in 1960. She and her fellow students, who became known as the Little Rock Nine, understood that a good education was needed for a promising future.

As of late Monday, there were still a few spots available for today’s luncheon at the Park Hyatt. Contact Lisa Pease for tickets, 471-3396.

Drinks and door prizes will be the order of the evening tonight from 5:30-7:30 p.m. as Vilar Performing Arts Center staff members Kris Sa-bel, Martha Brassel and Jason Den-hart move behind the bar at Lark-spur for an entertaining evening of “Cocktails For A Cause” to benefit the theatre’s STARS (Support The Arts Reaching Students) Program.

Twenty percent of all bar sales will be donated to the STARS Pro-gram for new initiatives this winter targeting high school students.

“The STARS Program is a tre-mendous opportunity for students from throughout our region,” ex-plained Kris Sabel, Executive Di-rector of the Vilar Performing Arts Center. “Each year, the Vilar Cen-

ter provides free transportation and tickets to more than 5,000 Eagle and Lake County students to expose them to the thrill of live performing arts. We hope everyone will stop by Larkspur to see us on Wednes-day because it truly is for a great cause.”

In addition to supporting the per-forming arts and helping students, participants will also have the op-portunity to win numerous door prizes throughout the evening, in-cluding $50 and $100 gift certifi-cates from Larkspur, along with a private chef’s table for four at the restaurant, which represents a $580 value.

Vilar Center door prizes will include two tickets to a classical

music performance at the theatre during the 2010-11 season, a pair of tickets to the winner’s choice of Aspen Santa Fe Ballet or Parsons Dance and a Bud Light Under-ground Sound package for the win-ter season.

If all this is not enough, partici-pants will also receive double Loy-alty Points from Larkspur on any food or drink purchased Wednesday evening. Larkspur is located at the base of Vail Mountain in the Golden Peak Lodge.

The Vilar Performing Arts Center is a project of the Vail Valley Foun-dation. For additional information on the Vilar Center, visit www.vilarpac.org.

ENTERTAINMENT

The founder of the national pro-gram that resulted in the creation of Celebrate the Beat will make a trip to the Vail Valley Saturday, September 4, as internationally renowned arts education leader Jacques d’Amboise conducts a special Celebrate the Beat master class for top students from the Avon Elementary School program.

Scheduled from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Gerald R. Ford Amphi-theater and open for public viewing, the class will provide an intimate be-hind the scenes look at the program, culminating with a 20-minute dance demonstration at noon.

“We are honored to be able to host Mr. d’Amboise in Vail,” explained Jean McSpadden, Director of Educa-tion for the Vail Valley Foundation, “and it will be an incredible treat for

the Celebrate the Beat students to learn from the master.”

Recognized as one of the fin-est classical dancers of our time, d’Amboise is now a leader in the arts education field with a model program that transforms thousands of school children via the magic and discipline of dance. In 1976, while still a principal dancer with New York City Ballet, he founded the Na-tional Dance Institute in the belief that the arts have a unique power to engage and motivate students to-wards excellence.

He is the recipient of numer-ous awards, including the Kennedy Center Honors and the MacArthur Genius Award. Since its inception, National Dance Institute programs in New York City and associate pro-

grams, including Celebrate the Beat, have reached and influenced over 2 million children.

The gates of the Ford Amphithe-ater will open at 10:30 a.m. in antici-pation of the master class.

Celebrate the Beat was incorporat-ed into the Vail International Dance Festival in 2007 via a one-week pro-gram that brought free movement and joy to the inaugural group of Vail Valley children. The program was added to the curriculum of Avon Elementary School in 2008 and cur-rently serves nearly 1,000 students in Eagle County thanks to the sup-port of the Vail Valley Foundation.

Celebrate the Beat is a project of the Vail Valley Foundation. For ad-ditional information, visit www.vvf.org.

World renowned arts education leader Jacques D’Amboise will be teaching the Celebrate the Beat master class at the Ford Amphitheater on Saturday. The event is open for public viewing.

“Our most urgent task is to restore our economy.” It was a telling sign of the domestic troubles weighing on Obama’s nation and his own presidency that he would put such emphasis on the dire state of U.S. joblessness in a major war address.

Even in turning control of the war over to Iraqis — and trying to cap one of the most divisive chapters in recent American history — Obama is escalating the conflict in Afghanistan. He pledged anew that the Unit-ed States would keep up the fight in that war, the lon-gest one since Vietnam.

And in Iraq, for all the finality, the war is not over. More Americans are likely to die. The country is plagued by violence and political instability, and Iraqis struggle with constant shortages of electricity and wa-ter.

Obama is keeping up to 50,000 troops in Iraq for sup-port and counter terrorism training, and the last forces are not due to leave until the end of 2011 at the latest.

Earl could force US evacuations ahead

of Labor Day Powerful Hurricane Earl threatened to sideswipe

much of the East Coast just ahead of Labor Day, wor-rying countless vacationers who planned to spend the traditional last week of summer at the beach.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency warned people along the Eastern Seaboard to prepare for pos-sible evacuations and islanders in the Turks and Caicos hunkered down in their homes yesterday as the Cat-egory 4 hurricane steamed across the Caribbean with winds of 135 mph.

Earl was expected to remain over the open ocean before turning north and running parallel to the East Coast, bringing high winds and heavy rain to North Carolina’s Outer Banks by late Thursday or early Fri-day. From there, forecasters said, it could curve away from the coast somewhat as it makes it way north, per-haps hitting Massachusetts’ Cape Cod and the Maine shoreline on Friday night and Saturday.

“My guests are calling and they don’t know what to do and I don’t know what to tell them,” said Dave Dawson, owner of the oceanfront Cape Hatteras Motel in Buxton, N.C.

Forecasters cautioned that it was still too early to tell how close Earl might come to land. But not since Hur-ricane Bob in 1991 has such a powerful storm had such a large swath of the East Coast in its sights, said Dennis Feltgen, spokesman for the National Hurricane Center.

“A slight shift of that track to the west is going to im-pact a great deal of real estate with potential hurricane-force winds,” Feltgen said.

Miller declared winner in Alaska

U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski has conceded her Senate primary race to Joe Miller.

Murkowski made the concession speech last night, a full week after the primary.

Murkowski trailed Miller, a Fairbanks attorney, by 1,668 votes after last week’s primary. Election officials began counting absentee and outstanding ballots yes-

terday. Murkowski made slight gains, but was never able to get Miller’s lead below 1,200 votes.

Muslims harassed at JBS meatpacking plants

Muslim Somali workers at two JBS Swift & Co. meatpacking plants in Colorado and Nebraska face on-going harassment because of their race and religion, in-cluding being prevented from getting a drink at one of the plants after fasting all day during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, the Equal Employment Opportu-nity Commission alleges.

A lawsuit filed by the EEOC late Monday in U.S. District Court in Denver alleges JBS officials shut off water fountains at its Greeley meatpacking plant, keep-ing Muslim Somali workers from getting a drink at sundown.

A second lawsuit filed by the EEOC in U.S. District Court in Omaha, Neb., alleges similar acts at the com-pany’s meatpacking plant in Grand Island, Neb.

Swift officials did not immediately return messages. Many workers named in the suit could not be reached for comment.

The lawsuit claims that Muslim workers trying to pray at the Greeley plant have been denied bathroom breaks, and are regularly harassed when they pray during their scheduled breaks or in the bathroom, with co-workers or managers using racist slurs and curse words. One restroom had graffiti with the words, “f--- Somalians,” f--- Muslims,” and “f--- Mohammed.”

pins. Edgar Valdez Villarreal, known as “the Barbie” for his fair complexion and green eyes, grinned broadly yesterday as police described a life of luxury and vio-lence that made a battleground of central Mexico, where he waged a war for con-trol against his slain boss’s brother.

The 37-year-old Valdez faces charges in three U.S. states for trucking in tons of cocaine. As a U.S. citizen living illegally in Mexico, Valdez could be deported to the United States if Mexico agrees, or he could face prosecution in Mexico for drug-related crimes. Mexican authorities say he could be responsible for dozens of murders.

The arrest was portrayed by Mexico’s government as a victory for President Felipe Calderon as he tries to recover public support for his war on organized crime in the face of escalating violence.

Proposed pot farm in Colorado angers

residentsThe investor saw potential in the

scrubby 67 acres tucked away amid mul-timillion dollar homes: He would turn the land into a vast pot farm and capital-ize on the booming medical marijuana industry.

But Scott Mullner, a city councilman from Laramie, Wyo., infuriated his Col-orado neighbors with his plan to place a marijuana farm in the midst of their idyl-lic Northern Colorado countryside.

They say the project will damage prop-erty values and attract more unwanted attention than the previous business at the location — an organic egg farm.

“Nobody is going to come out and steal a chicken,” said Lance Messinger, 56, who lives less than a mile from the proposed marijuana site. “So it was pret-ty benign to the neighborhood, is what I’m saying.”

Despite a flurry of e-mails and calls from residents opposed to the idea, Boulder County commissioners decided against holding a public hearing on the issue yesterday, allowing Mullner’s ap-plication to proceed.

The county banned medical marijuana growing operations in agricultural areas in June but Mullner was able to get his application in before that. Commission-ers said they had to abide by the rules at the time.

Mullner still must proceed through the rest of the regulatory process and oppo-nents say they’ll continue the fight.

“We’re going to keep working on it, we’re going to make it difficult for them and we’re going to grow our numbers. It’s unconscionable, I cannot believe

that they did that,” said resident Nancy Peters, 62, one of 40 opponents who at-tended the meeting.

Google, AP reach new deal on

licensing rights Google Inc. will be able to continue

posting content from The Associated Press under a new licensing deal the two companies announced Monday af-ter months of sometimes thorny negotia-tions.

The AP said in a statement that the two companies also will work together in ways to improve discovery and distri-bution of news.

Financial terms and the duration of the contract were not disclosed.

Google, the Internet’s most profitable company, began to pay for AP’s con-tent in 2006 after the not-for-profit news agency threatened to sue. That contract expired in January but was extended while the negotiations on a new deal progressed. The talks got so thorny that at one point, Google stopped hosting AP content.

Even after the 2006 agreement, Google and AP still had an uneasy relationship.

Google also has signed contracts with Agence France-Presse, UK Press Asso-ciation, Canadian Press and other out-lets.

Under these licensing agreements, Google publishes entire stories from the AP and other outlets in the news section of its website.

Corruption probe ruffles US-Afghan

relationsA bribery probe involving a top ad-

viser to President Hamid Karzai has an-gered the Afghan leader and threatens to damage U.S. relations with Kabul just three months after a White House visit that seemed to smooth ties at a critical stage in the war.

Instead, tensions have risen over the aide’s arrest by a U.S.-advised team, and the U.S. says it is watching the next anti-corruption steps closely.

In the days that followed, Karzai bluntly criticized U.S. war strategy and ordered private security companies in the nation to disband in four months. He also signed off on the forced retirement of a veteran corruption-fighter amid alle-gations by the ousted prosecutor and oth-ers that cases against high-ranking gov-ernment officials were being blocked.

U.S. officials have been pressing Karzai to step up ef-forts to root out corruption, and he has pledged to do that. At the same time, he has pushed back, saying the international community needs to do more to eliminate corruption in its own procedures involving contractors and eliminate terrorist havens outside Afghanistan’s borders.

Watch out Yogi!Wildlife officers have killed a mother bear and her

two cubs after the cubs broke into a Colorado Springs home.

The bears got into the house yesterday after pushing down on the door handle. Retired state District Judge Richard Hall says the bears rummaged through his trash and opened a drawer.

The cubs fled through a window when he yelled at them.

The three bears ran to a nearby house and eventually up a pine tree. State wildlife officers tranquilized and euthanized the bears.

Colorado Division of Wildlife spokesman Michael Seraphin says the bears had to be euthanized because they likely would have entered another house.

Area residents had reported seeing the bears milling around the neighborhood before and entering a ga-rage.

Maine man says NY bomber was partyer

A Pakistani man detained during an investigation of a botched car bombing in New York City’s Times Square says he knew the plotter years ago as a partying college student—not as the radical Muslim who later said he received explosives training from the Pakistani Taliban. Mohammad Shafiq Rahman told The Associated Press yesterday that he was a computer programmer work-ing 18-hour days in Connecticut when he met Faisal Shahzad through his employer’s brother. Rahman said he and others joined Pakistani students on weekends at Shahzad’s dorm in Bridgeport, Conn. He recalled Shahzad as a typical student who drank and partied.

Rahman, who last saw Shahzad in 2002, distanced himself from Shahzad and terrorism in his first pub-lic remarks since being released from federal detention last week.

“The Taliban are terrorists. They are not Muslim extremists. They are terrorists. Period,” said Rahman, joined by his wife in Portland’s Deering Oaks Park. “It doesn’t come from faith. They’re using the faith, devotion of the faith, and manipulating the faith into wrong.”

Billy goat Gruff captured

A wandering Missouri goat whose ex-ploits have been chronicled on a popu-lar Facebook page has been captured. KXEO reported that a man named Mervin Beechy noticed the goat yesterday after-noon while he was driving around the eastern Missouri town of Mexico.

Beechy fetched his trailer and horse and returned to the area. He told KXEO that he only had to chase the goat on horseback for about a quarter-mile be-fore lassoing him.

The goat had been eluding capture since Aug. 21.

Animal control officers had been call-ing him Billy Goat Gruff.

The Facebook fan page that someone started for the goat has more than 9,000 followers. A post yesterday afternoon, written from the goat’s perspective, says he’s been kept out of traffic until he can “bust back out” or “figure out what’s next.”

Villagers return to slopes of Indone-

sian volcanoVillagers returned to their homes

along the fertile slopes of an Indonesian

volcano that spewed hot ash and smoke after laying dormant for more than four centuries—an eruption that caught sci-entists off-guard.

Betta Tarigan, a 48-year-old farmer, piled into the back of a crowded pickup truck and headed up Mount Sinabung early yesterday to check on his cattle and crops, all blanketed in heavy gray soot.

The air was thick with the smell of sul-fur.

“There’s not going to be a harvest this year ... look at these tomatoes,” Tarigan said sadly, after grabbing clothes and blankets for his wife and children so he could head quickly back to one of many emergency shelters along the volcano’s base.

The eruption of the 8,000-foot volca-no on Sunday was followed by a much more powerful blast Monday, forcing the evacuation of more than 30,000 peo-ple and putting the region on the highest alert level. Some domestic flights had to be diverted because of poor visibility.

How many penalty strokes for starting

a wildfire?Forget “Fore!” “Fire!” was the cry

of the day for a golfer whose off-target swing sparked a 12-acre blaze in South-ern California. The golfer at the Shady Canyon Golf Course in Irvine landed a shot in the rough Saturday.

On his next swing, his club snagged a rock, causing a spark that lit the rough ablaze and eventually attracted 150 fire-fighters to the scene.

Fire officials say the fire burned through the rough, into vegetation next to the course and over two dry, brushy hillsides.

No charges were filed against the golf-er, whose name was withheld.

This is a picture of “The Mexico Goat” from his Facebook page, which now has more than 9,000 fans.

Legendary cyclist Fignon dies at 50Told all in autobiography published last year

Laurent Fignon, the Frenchman who won the Tour de France in 1983 and 1984 and lost to Greg LeMond in 1989 in the race’s closest finish, died Tuesday of can-cer. He was 50.

His death was confirmed by the French government and the French cycling federation. Fignon said in June 2009 he had advanced cancer of the digestive system and was undergoing chemotherapy.

Fignon had been a television commentator in France since 2006. He worked through this year’s Tour, which ended barely a month ago, his voice gravelly from his illness and treatment.

“He was a great champion who used a combination of talent and will to win the Tour de France twice,” French Cycling Federation president David Lappar-tient told The Associated Press. “He had an iron will, and was also a very intelligent man.”

Seven-time Tour champion Lance Armstrong, a can-cer survivor, called Fignon a “dear friend” and a “leg-endary cyclist.”

“I will never forget the early 90s when I first turned pro, of course terrified of these ‘older guys.’ Laurent was always a friendly face with words of advice,” Arm-strong said in a statement. “He was a special man to me, to cycling, and to all of France.”

In 1989, Fignon lost to LeMond by eight seconds. The two dogged each other for weeks, the leader’s yel-low jersey passing back and forth. Finally, with only the last-day time trial left, Fignon had a 50-second lead that appeared decisive.

But LeMond, riding with an aerodynamic helmet and new triathlon handlebars that Fignon maintained were illegal, set a blistering pace. It was the fastest full-length time-trial stage ever ridden at the time.

Fignon rode last, using traditional handlebars and with his ponytail blowing in the wind. He gave every-thing he had, collapsing to the ground after finishing. But it was not enough. LeMond took the Tour by the smallest margin of victory.

“The cyclist who doesn’t know how to lose cannot become a champion. … But to lose like that, on the last day, with such a small gap, and principally because of handlebars that were banned under the rules, no, that was too much for one man,” Fignon said in his autobiography, “We Were Young and Carefree,” pub-lished last year.In the book, Fignon admitted to dop-ing, describing drug-taking in the 1980s as widespread. He said it was recreational rather than performance-enhancing— aided by the strong Colombian involve-ment in cycling at the time and accompanied by large quantities of cocaine.

He said doping in cycling was revolutionized by the arrival of the blood-booster EPO in the early ’90s. Fi-gnon said he refused to take it and retired from com-petition in 1993 when he realized that mediocre riders were now keeping up with him.

Fignon took up cycling because his friends did—initially against the wishes of his parents, who disliked the fact that amateur cycle races took place on Sun-days, which they considered a day for family activi-ties.Despite his reputation for being well-read and his nickname “The Professor,” Fignon dropped out of col-lege. He competed in races while completing his army service before being signed up by respected sporting director Cyrille Guimard to the Renault team.

Fignon is survived by his wife, Valerie, and a son from a previous marriage.

Three-time Tour de France cham-pion Alberto Contador has slightly injured his right knee after crashing during training.

Contador’s spokesman, Jacinto Vidarte, says the rider fell while

training on the outskirts of his home-town Pinto on Monday after losing control of his bike at a roundabout on a road made slippery by oil.

Vidarte says Contador was able to get back on his bike but felt pain

during the night and medical checks revealed a knee inflammation.

Contador signed a deal earlier this month to compete for Team Saxo Bank next season after deciding to leave Astana.

Anton wins stage-4 of Spanish Vuelta

Igor Anton gave the Spanish Vuelta its first Spanish stage winner after he won a mountainous fourth leg on Tuesday, and Philippe Gil-bert of Belgium remained the over-all leader.

The Euskaltel Euskadi cyclist broke away 300 meters from the finish for a one-second victory over Vincenzo Nibali of Italy, Peter Velits of Slovakia and Joaquin Ro-driguez of Spain. Anton finished the 183.8 kilometers (114.2 miles) in 5 hours, 29 seconds.

Anton had trained on the same stage route before the 65th edition of the Spanish classic.

“It was worth it,” the Basque rid-er told Spanish state TV. “It was one of my objectives, so it brings great satisfaction to win here.”

Frank Schleck of Luxembourg and Denis Menchov of Russia both

finished 19 seconds behind Anton, while 2008 Tour de France champi-on Carlos Sastre of Spain was 1:34 back in 25th.

Gilbert finished five seconds back to hold a 10-second overall advan-tage over Anton and Rodriguez. The Belgian’s overall time is 13:56:30. Nibali is 12 seconds behind Gilbert and Velits trails by 16 seconds in fifth.

“The last climb was really steep and maybe I started too late my sprint,” Gilbert said of the narrow street finish. “I still have the jersey and it’s nice.”

Schleck was 50 seconds behind Gilbert in eighth, Menchov 1:14 in 14th and Sastre, a climbing special-ist, 2:15 behind in 22nd.

Wednesday’s fifth stage is a 198.8-kilometer (123.5-mile) ride from Guadix to Lorca.

Sharapova rallies for victory

Down a set in the first round of the U.S. Open, Maria Sharapova sat in her changeover chair, briefly closed her eyes, and took some deep breaths.

“I knew,” she would say later, “that it wasn’t over.”Whatever problems she encountered Tuesday, what-

ever the level of her game, all that mattered to Sharapo-va was the outcome. Overcoming a deficit and a big-hitting opponent to avoid a significant upset, the 2006 U.S. Open champion put together a 4-6, 6-3, 6-1 vic-tory over 60th-ranked Jarmila Groth of Australia.

Groth hit 14 double-faults, including on the final point of the second set. She was by far the more ag-gressive of the two, taking risks that sometimes paid off and sometimes did not. She hit 24 winners to 19 for Sharapova, and made 48 unforced errors to 17 for Sharapova.

Djokovic wins in five setsIn the second official match he ever played, Novak

Djokovic faced Viktor Troicki in the under-10 divi-sion.

“He destroyed me,” Djokovic recalled Tuesday.The scene was being repeated about 15 years later in

the first round of the U.S. Open.“Today he was the better player on the court—for

a while,” the third-seeded Djokovic said of his friend from Serbia.

Djokovic, a year younger but now ranked 44 spots higher, rallied in the searing heat for a 6-3, 3-6, 2-6, 7-5, 6-3 win.

Down two sets to one, Djokovic had his serve broken in the first game of the fourth set. Troicki nearly went up two breaks, but the 2008 Australian Open champ fought off break points in his next two service games.

Troicki had 23 aces. In winning the second and third sets, he hit 71 percent of his serves in—and won 87 percent of those points.But Djokovic started picking up Troicki’s serve better in the final two sets and outlasted the sun.“You just have to try to be patient and wait for the shadows,” he said, “like I did.”

AS WE APPROACH FALL, one event that has spurred the interest of many Eagle County locals is the “Gingerbread Holiday House Competition” to benefit CASA. The High Altitude Quilt Guild, with members from Vail to Gypsum, has spent many hours working on a quilt to be raffled off between now and November 26. Besides the quilt, they are donating “crutch totes” and “walker totes” to the Vail Valley Medical Center gift shop. Another service project the quilt is participating in is the “1 Million Pillowcase Challenge,” a national project to supply handmade pillow cases to communities throughout the country. The Guild will be making and distributing more than 50 cases to deserving charities in Eagle County. The “Ski Quilt” will be showcased at the Minturn Farmer’s Market this Saturday, September 4. Raffle tickets are $10.00 each, the drawing will be held November 26 and the winner need not be present -- he or she will be contacted. For more information call CASA at 970.513.9390, or contact them through their website at www.mtncasa.org.

Nike silver/grey frames lost on Rugby Field in Vail on

Saturday, August 7.

My name is Rocket Man and I’m a 4-year-old male

American Eskimo. I was res-cued from a mill breeder in Washington state where I lived in a shopping cart for

the first 3 years of my life. I’m currently fostered in Vail

where I love to hike up moun-tains and play with my friends at doggie daycare. I do my special “Rocket Dance” at

feeding time because I’m so excited. I’m timid at first but I

am learning to be less shy. I will get better with time and love!
