THE UPDATE

The president’s controversial video address to the nation’s school children next week will be beamed into Eagle County schools, school district officials

said Thursday.Your kids do not have to watch it, if

you don’t want them to, officials said.President Obama will try to inspire

the nation’s schoolchildren. The origi-nal proposal erupted in controversy Wednesday, and the White House did a

little editing to change a suggestion that teachers around the nation assign an es-say on how to “help the president,” and what students think the president wants them to do.

The broadcast is scheduled for noon local time.

Art, wine, snacks and a good causeTonight’s Connoisseur’s Trail benefits Small Champions program

What could be more decadent than an art walk with special gourmet treats and wines at every stop?

The Connoisseur’s Trail — tonight in Vail — has been a wild success with those three simple elements. And the $30 ticket always goes to a great cause — this time to the Small Champions program, which gets disabled Eagle County kids into a variety of activities, including skiing and rock climb-ing.

“It has evolved into this great community gathering centered around the different res-taurants and galleries,” said Tom Bassett, sales director at Claggett-Rey Gallery. “It is our collectors, our clients, but also a lot of locals.”

The gallery will feature paintings by Kent Lemon, a Colorado artist who recently was in the Vail Valley to do plein air (outdoor) studies. The true measure of a good artwork is if it has a longevity with the viewer, some-thing that Lemon does well, Bassett said.

Locally, it’s a classroom-by-classroom and school-by-school decision.

“Showing the broadcast is each class-room’s choice,” said Skjonsby. “We need to inform parents about it.”

‘I’ve been skiing for 81 years’10th Mt Vet shares stories at ski museum tonight

Sandy Treat is veteran of the 10th Mountain Division of World War II. He’s got some great stories, and he’ll be shar-ing them tonight, and every Friday, at the Colorado Ski Museum in Vail.

“I’ve been skiing for 81 years,” Treat said. “I moved here in ’63, and I didn’t come to play golf.”

He said there are all kinds of things he could potentially talk about at the presentation, which will begin at 3 p.m. “It all de-pends on who shows up,” he said. “Some people like to talk

about the equipment that we had back then, the training we went through (at Camp Hale) and the war. Everyone wants to talk about skiing.”

At last week’s event, there was a coronal from WWII in the audience. They discussed the importance of the 10th

Vail’s different daily alternative

Brian McCartney is one of those folks you always see around town.

The 35-year Vail Mountain veteran retired from his job as vice president of operations at the beginning of the year and started following new dreams, including a plan to run a foundation for disabled military veterans.

As part of the recent changes in his life, McCa-rtney also is looking to downsize from his current 3,600-square-foot bedroom home in Singletree to a smaller place somewhere else in the valley. The four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath house is great for enter-taining, but it’s a lot of maintenance, too.

What that means is a great opportunity for potential buyers. The house is listed for $1.175 million

“I love the house I live in. It has beautiful views and a big yard for the dogs to run around in,” McCartney said. “But it’s a big house for what is now me and the dogs.”

McCartney’s hobby of “putzing around in the gar-den” means that there’s spectacular and mature land-scaping for a new homeowner.

Great for entertaining friends“Everybody who comes in loves this house,” Mc-

Cartney says. “It’s really a pretty lot, and you can see from Beaver Creek to Cordillera from the deck. I’m spoiled.”

McCartney said his new home will need a place to grill and to have friends over, point-ing out that the Singletree home easily plays host to a pick-up din-ner for 20 friends in the summer.

It’s also in the center of the ac-tion, in terms of area golf cours-es — including Sonnenalp Golf Course next door — and it’s close to skiing in the winter without be-ing socked in by snowy weather as much as Vail is.

“You don’t have to be here 365 days a year for 35 years to feel this place is home,” Mc-Cartney said. “It’s a special part of the Vail Valley.”

If you want to see for yourself, McCartney’s Realtor Barb Murray will host an open house from 12 to 3 p.m. at the Singletree residence. The house is at 161 Chapar-ral Road.

Hungry? Thirsty? Vail’s got you covered this week-end.

Gourmet on Gore, an open-air tasting of world-class wines, spirits and beers with the best fare from through-out the Vail Valley, returns to the streets of Vail Village this weekend. The three-day festival will feature free live music and will kick off with the Connoisseur’s Trail Art Walk.

The best chefs in the Valley will be whipping up taste-size portions of their favorite Labor Day cuisine. So, you can have a little of this and a little of that.

Wet your appetite…La Tour is serving beef tenderloin sliders with black

truffle cheese and mushroom fondue with organic summer vegetable cous cous salad and hand squeezed fresh lem-onade. Chef Paul Ferzacca says Gourmet on Gore is a great Labor Day tradition.

“It’s a great time for people to get out and enjoy Vail Village, taste samplings from the many restaurants involved and do some shopping in our unique retail shops,” he said.

Terra Bistro’s dish is Colorado Sweet Corn Tamale with Slow Roasted Pork, Smoked Tomatoes and Onion Cream.

Executive Chef Kevin Nelson says “By using fresh local corn for the tamale filling, we can achieve an in-tensely sweet corn flavor and transform the common pork tamale into a gourmet dish that showcases Colo-rado-grown ingredients.”

On Saturday, Up the Creek will be preparing pan-seared Mero Sea Bass from Hawaii with an Asian noodle cake and Hebi nachos with wakame kelp and an avocado wasabi puree on wonton crisps. They’ll be grilling up elk, ostrich, caribou sausage and achiote-marinated quail on Sunday

Larkspur is cooking up Salmon Creek BBQ pork buns with gypsum farm slaw and Grandma Navarro’s saltine toffee crunch.

Executive Chef Armando Navarro says, “The toffee

has been in my family for generations, for good reason. You just have to try it!”

Kelly Liken will be serving an heir-loom cherry tomato ceviche with shaved baby radishes in a pastry cup with a ba-con crisp. The tomatoes are coming fresh from Whynn Farms in Palisade.

This year’s Gourmet on Gore will be the largest in the festival’s four-year history. Other participating Vail Valley restaurants include: Alpenrose, Batter Cupcakes, Big Bear Bistro, Blu’s Res-taurant, Bully Ranch, Café Milano, Davinci, La Bot-tega, Larkburger, Lord Gore, Marketplace on Meadow Drive, Moe’s BBQ, Ocotillo Prime, Pastatively, Rim-ini, Sushi Oka, Sweet Basil, Tap Room, Terra Bistro, The Wildflower and Two Guys Catering.

And to wash it all down…Gourmet on Gore will combine specialty dishes with

complimenting wines, spirits and beers from the wide assortment of international and domestic varietals, says Missy Johnson of Highline Sports and Entertainment, the event’s organizer.

“With wines from France, Italy, Australia and South America, as well as domestic varieties from California and the Northwest, Gourmet on Gore will showcase Sauvignon Blanc to Super Tuscans to vodkas and rums and everything in between,” she said.

The festival will feature varietals from Bonterra Vineyards, Canyon Wind Cellars, Five Rivers Ranch, Jekel, Korbel, Little Black Dress, Sanctuary, Sonoma Cutrer, Hoegaarden and Stella Artois.

Throughout the weekend, winemakers and somme-liers will be on hand to discuss their wine and spirit selections and educate attendees on the tasting process. Each wine tasting portion will be priced in $1 incre-ments.

“Much like the wine tasting portions, fare samples will also be offered at affordable prices,” Johnson said. “Gourmet on Gore is intended to make the traditional high-end food and wine festival more accessible to the general public.”

There is no charge for admission.

This summer has been an amazing one for events and the Vail Jazz Party is ready to blow out Labor Day this weekend. The 15th Annual Labor Day Weekend Party has a remarkable schedule of events that includes five days and nights of some of the world’s greatest jazz performances.

As the Executive Director of the Vail Jazz Founda-tion, I am particularly proud of what we’ve accom-plished this summer, from Jazz at the Farmer’s Market every Sunday to our performances at Vail Square to our educational activities. We accomplished our mission of both entertaining and educating our guests. The Jazz Festival is not the only success of the summer, either. Both Bravo! Vail Valley Music Festival and the Vail International Dance Festival (VIDF) saw increased at-tendance at this summer’s festivals: Bravo! saw an 8% increase in attendance (35,000 to 38,000 guests) and VIDF saw a 20 percent increase in attendance (12,000 to 15,000 participants).

Vail is truly a destination for cultural activities and enrichment in the summertime. Through the efforts of the tremendous work by countless organizations and the town as whole, we’ve established Vail as a world-class hub of cultural events and experiences. We are not done yet.

Through my position as a member as of the Vail Lo-cal Marketing District Advisory Council (VLMDAC), a nine member council appointed by the Vail Town Council, sitting as the Vail Local Marketing District (VLMD), I’ve had the opportunity to see how crucial it is for Vail to move forward, especially in these tough economic times. We’ve gathered a wealth of research and industry knowledge to help us plan for the future.

We have learned that while the “decade of luxury” is coming to an end; the “decade of wellness” is being ushered in on the higher end of the demographic spec-trum. Fortunately, the analysis found that this audience is increasingly defining their wellness by a greater com-mitment to their pursuit of active recreation outdoors. One of the realizations of the VLMD is that we have the innate talent, infrastructure and lifestyle to adapt to and position ourselves from a marketing perspective-in light of this fundamental shift in the marketplace.

The fundamental goal of the VLMD is to drive non-

ski season business to our Vail lodges, restaurants and businesses. Vail could well be America’s mecca for the confluence of wellness and active outdoor recreation. So, we’re exploring the potential for partnerships with other leading organizations that can not only help ex-pand Vail’s reach and offerings, but also contribute to the economic wellness of the community by driving lodging revenues and contributing to businesses as a whole. We will capitalize on the elements that already exist in Vail that contribute to our focus on the inter-section of wellness and active outdoor recreation, and further develop assets that are already in place.

The Vail Local Marketing District is staying vigilant and focused in planning for the upcoming year. We extended (from winter) and implemented a targeted Front Range promotion with Vail All the Love. Over-all occupancy in Vail for the summer is higher than our competitive average—anywhere from seven to nine percent higher. While the numbers are still being tabulated, there is no doubt that the marketing efforts of the VLMD and town as a whole contributed to this success. It is imperative that we continue to hold and grow market share. Strategic collaboration in the busi-ness community creates success for many. We remain in lock step with both Commission on Special Events (CSE) and the VLMD. We know that it is equally im-portant to both produce and market the special events which attract so many people to Vail.

VLMD believes in the strategic implementation of a national PR and media campaign positioning Vail as a leading summer destination. We continue to see suc-cess in this area, not only in traditional avenues such as magazines, newspapers and television, but also in new online and social media arenas.

It is during these uncertain economic times that we are given the opportunity to be bold and strategic, giv-ing more people a reason for Vail to be the resort of preference for active vacationers. I’m excited not only for what we’ve accomplished, but also for the path that we’ve set out upon.

Have a great holiday weekend. I hope to see you at the Vail Jazz Party.

On behalf of the Vail Local Marketing District,Mia Vlaar

Election season heats up

Election season is heating up in Vail — if you want to run for office, you can get a petition starting on Sept. 14.

Four council seats are up for election in the Nov. 3 election.

One council seat is open after Councilman Farrow Hitt has said he will not run for office again. Council-men Kevin Foley and Mark Gordon have said they will run again for their seats. Councilwoman Kim Newbury has said she does not know if she will run or not.

Mayor Dick Cleveland, Mayor Pro-tem Andy Daly and Councilwoman Margaret Rogers are up for re-elec-tion in November 2011.

Any candidate who wants to run for the town council must be a U.S. citizen; must be a registered voter in town; must be at least 21 years of age and must be a Vail resident for two years immediately preceding the election.

Town elections are non-partisan. In accordance with the town’s charter, the three candidates receiving the highest number of votes in the regular election will serve four-year terms, while the fourth highest vote-getter will serve a two-year term.

Incoming council members receive a salary of $625 per month, while council members elected prior to No-vember 2007 receive a salary of $500 per month so as not to benefit from their earlier approval of a salary in-crease. The mayor receives a $1,000 monthly salary.

Candidates can pick up petitions at the Vail Town Clerk’s Office from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, 75 S. Frontage Road. Candidates have until 5 p.m. on Oct. 2 to circulate and return the nominating petitions. A minimum of 10 valid signatures from reg-istered voters is required for certification.

Voters have until Oct. 5 to register to vote in the up-coming election. Early voting begins Oct. 22.

For more information, call the Vail Town Clerk’s Of-fice at 479-2136 or visit www.vailgov.com.

Good food is meant to be enjoyed slow, not savored from a cardboard box in the driver’s seat of your car.

Chef Kelly Liken, who operates two Valley restau-rants with her husband Rick Colomitz, is teaming up with Lance and Anna Hanson at Jack Rabbit Hill, own-ers of Colorado’s one and only sprawling 70 acre bio-dynamic organic winery and distillery to host Plein Air Farm Dinner Series in Hotchkiss.

“We are setting up outdoor community tables under the cottonwood trees on the property and eating family style while the sun sets,” said Liken. “It’s a really awe-some opportunity for people to see a different side of Colorado, slow down and see how our food is grown and take the time enjoy our delicious meal in a natural setting.”

Liken will be featured tomorrow, Sept. 5, and plans to prepare four farm fresh courses showcasing the lo-cal variety of farmers in the region, to be paired with Hanson’s organic and biodynamic wines and spirits. She will be cooking with Jenna Johansen, chef/owner of Dish Restaurant in Edwards.

The dinner will begin with Liken’s hors d’oeuvres, followed by a selection of summer salads using a huge variety of locally grown greens, including both an heir-loom tomato and a cucumber salad.

Liken will also whip up grilled Colorado rack of lamb, which is all natural, with sweet corn succotash. Desert will include Palisade peach cobbler.

Along with a variety of Jack Rabbit Hill wines, Lik-en will is throwing her mixed tomato consume martini and cucumber lime elixir organic gin and vodka, which have both won the People’s Choice Award at Taste of Vail, into the mix.

This is the first year Jack Rabbit Hill will host such a rare event, said Hanson, whose hoping to expand the series next year.

“The genesis of the dinner was really the interest we

have gotten over the years to the property from peo-ple who have come up and said ‘Gee I wish you guys would do a farm dinner out here,’ so this summer we finally stopped procrastinating,” said Lance. “Our idea is to feature one of Colorado’s finest artists and chefs at each dinner, to bring their expertise and their wonder-ful product to our farm.”

But don’t get all gussied up for the dinner, Lance ad-vised.

“It’s not going to be real informal, hopefully the guests will find the food and the wine to be top quality, but this isn’t about having a white tablecloth experi-ence,” he said. “It’s going to be a family style format, we want to make it fun.”

Seating will begin at 6 p.m., but Hanson suggests showing up anytime after 4 p.m. to explore all the farm has to offer, including the Peak Spirit Distillery, which will be hopping before the feast, along with 70 acres of vineyards and diversified livestock. The only biody-namic farm in the state, Jack Rabbit Hill holds itself to a rigorous organic standard. The Hansons raise chick-ens to regulate the insects, sheep to graze on the weeds and cattle to produce their own manure.

Seating is limited to 75 guests; cost is $75 per person. Call Lance Hanson at 835-3677 or e-mail [email protected] for details and reservations.

killed, told the parole commissioners that she would have a 40-year-old nephew if her sister had lived. She said of Atkins, “I will pray for her soul when she draws her last breath, but until then I think she should remain in this controlled situation.”

Atkins, 61, had been expected to die of brain cancer over a year ago but continues to cling to life. She also had a leg amputated from cancer-related health issues.

Single digit health careOne man bit off part of another man’s finger when a

health care reform demonstration turned violent.William Rice said doctors did not reattach the bitten-

off part of his left pinky after he got in the middle of a Southern California rally Wednesday night that he said was “very scary.”

Ventura County Sheriff’s spokesman Eric Buschow said the confrontation erupted after the biter crossed from the MoveOn.org side of the street to the counter-protest, where Rice was standing.

Rice was treated at Los Robles Hospital and Medical Center. The top joint of his pinky, including his whole fingernail, was severed, hospital spokeswoman Kris Carraway-Bowman said. She said his treatment was covered by Medicare.

Rice said he and his attacker did not have a conver-sation about health care, “unless you want to call him screaming in my face that I’m an idiot a conversation.”

Dumb thumb storyA bank in Florida refused to cash a check for an arm-

less man because he could not provide a thumbprint, according to a report by the Reuters news agency.

“They looked at my prosthetic hands and the tell-er said, ‘Well, obviously you can’t give us a thumb-print’,” Steve Valdez was quoted as having told CNN on Wednesday.

But he said the Bank of America branch in downtown Tampa, Fla. still insisted on a thumbprint identification for him to cash a check drawn on his wife’s account at the bank, even though he showed them two photo IDs, writes Reuters’ Pascal Fletcher.

In the incident last week, a bank supervisor told Val-dez he could only cash the check without a thumbprint if he brought his wife in with him or he opened an ac-

count with them, reported Fletcher.According to Reuters’ report, Bank of America said

in a statement cited by CNN: “While the thumbprint is a requirement for those who don’t have accounts, the bank should have made accommodations.”

Eliminate that nervous Twitter for $14,000

Ben Alexander spent nearly every waking minute playing the video game “World of Warcraft.” As a re-sult, he flunked out of the University of Iowa.

Alexander, 19, needed help to break an addiction he calls as destructive as alcohol or drugs. He found it in this suburb of high-tech Seattle, where what claims to be the first residential treatment center for Internet ad-diction in the United States just opened its doors.

The center, called ReSTART, is somewhat ironically located near Redmond, headquarters of Microsoft and a world center of the computer industry. It opened in July and for $14,000 offers a 45-day program intended to help people wean themselves from pathological com-puter use, which can include obsessive use of video games, texting, Facebook, eBay, Twitter and any other time-killers brought courtesy of technology.

The trick is to set very low goals

Defending a costly plan to revitalize the economy, Vice President Joe Biden on Thursday said the govern-ment’s sweeping stimulus effort “is in fact working” despite steady Republican criticism and public skepti-cism.

Nearly 200 days into the effort, Biden delivered an upbeat report card about the $787 billion rescue effort that President Barack Obama pushed through Con-gress. He quoted estimates by private analysts that the plan has created or saved 500,000 to 750,000 jobs so far. But many million people remain out of work.

The effectiveness of the two-year program is a matter of sharp political debate, and Biden sought to counter critics with a listing of tangible results.

“One of the criticisms is that it is simply a grab bag of different programs,” Biden said in a speech at The Brookings Institution. “But the fact that the recovery

Natural gas prices hit seven-year lows

Natural gas prices tumbled again Thursday, hitting new seven-year lows as the country pares down on en-ergy usage and more unused supply is put into stor-age.

That will mean huge savings for a lot of people this winter when the heating bill arrives.

Natural gas for October delivery gave up 20.7 cents to settle at $2.508 per 1,000 cubic feet on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices dropped as low as $2.50 per 1,000 cubic feet — the lowest since March 2002 — after the government reported that U.S. natural gas supplies grew again last week and are now nearly 18 percent above the five-year average.

While in Cuba, Fidel and Oliver discuss the evils of torture – in the

United StatesFidel Castro discussed the political “errors and hor-

rors” of former US president George W. Bush with filmmaker Oliver Stone, the Cuban leader wrote Thurs-day, according to an AFP report.

Castro, 83, in an editorial carried in official media, said he had a long talk with Oliver Stone regarding his film “W” about the Bush presidency.

The AFP reports that in slamming Bush for dragging the United States to war in Iraq and failing to sign the Kyoto Protocol on global warming, Fidel Castro said he told Stone “my point of view about Bush’s responsi-bility” for those and other political missteps.

Castro was quoted having written, “after the political errors and horrors of George W. Bush,” former US vice president Dick Cheney appallingly justified torture.

“Let’s get this straight, it is a question of political eth-ics: ‘the end does not justify the means.’ Torture does not justify torture; one crime does not justify another crime,” Castro added, according to the report.

Spitzette spreads the guilt around

According to the New York Post, the high-paid escort who notoriously romped with disgraced ex-Gov. Eliot Spitzer has a message to New York ladies: You’re no better than me!

“Get real and get over yourself,” Ashley Dupre was quoted telling all the women out there who “just love to judge.”

Dupre, responding to a front-page Post exclusive about Spitzer contemplating a return to office, said she is tired of people looking down on her, writes The Post’s Neel Shah and Jennifer Fermino.

“Let me say this -- most girls, to varying degrees, of course, want to be pampered and have nice shoes, designer handbags and gorgeous clothes,” Dupre, 24, was quoted writing in a blog post on hip-hop impresa-rio Russell Simmons’ Global Grind Web site.

“I see this all over New York City. Some women aren’t as vindictive, but still dive into relationships with wealthy guys who they don’t love or even find attractive, but they stay in it because they have a nice home, a car and spending money,” she was quoted hav-ing blogged.

“They would rather stay in an unfulfilling or loveless relationship than lose that security.”

2nd round US Open actionAmerican

Melanie Oudin delivers first major U.S. Open upset

17-year old Melanie Oudin was on the delivering end of the biggest upset so far at the U.S. Open.American tennis got a bump

Thursday when Oudin, ignoring the pain of her left thigh injury, defeated No. 4 seed Elena Dementieva 5-7, 6-4, 6-3.

Oudin played most of the third set with a heavy wrap on her leg, an injury that briefly reduced her to tears as she headed to the baseline to serve. But the day ended with a loud shriek when she painted the corner with her serve on her third match point at Arthur Ashe Sta-dium.

No. 1 seed Safina struggles in 2nd round

Dinara Safina pulled off another comeback victory over a low-ranked opponent at the U.S. Open Thurs-day.

Beset by shaky nerves and poor play, Safina had 15 double-faults but still managed to hold on to beat 67th-ranked Kristina Barrois of Germany 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-3.

This comes after Safina barely avoided becoming the first No. 1-seeded woman to lose in the U.S. Open’s first round. She had 11 double-faults and 48 unforced errors in that match, a three-set win over 167th-ranked Olivia Rogowska.

Safina needed more than two hours to get through each match so far.

Grieving Jankovic upsetJelena Jankovic’s heart and mind were not in her

match Thursday.The night before her the No. 5 seed’s match, her be-

loved grandmother died back home in Serbia.“I was very sad and emotionally I was really not on

court,” Jankovic said. “I really tried my best to be there and to try to play, but it was really hard.

Yaroslava Shvedova, a 21-year-old from Kazakhstan, won 6-3, 6-7 (4), 7-6 (6).

American James Blake advances to 3rd round

Always a crowd favorite, James Blake has advanced to the third round of the U.S. Open with a 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (6) 6-3 victory over Olivier Rochus of Belgium.

No. 21 Blake, the second-highest seeded American in the tournament behind Andy Roddick, trailed 6-3 in Thursday night’s third-set tiebreaker but won the next five points for an 8-6 win. He broke Rochus’ serve in the sixth game of the fourth set and closed it out three games later.

Blake has now advanced to at least the third round of the U.S. Open in his last seven appearances, but has yet to get past the quarterfinals of any major.

His next match is against 14th-seeded Tommy Ro-bredo.

Andrei Greipel wins 2nd straight stage at Vuelta

Germany’s Andrei Greipel won the fifth stage at the Spanish Vuelta Thursday to take the overall lead.

Greipel overtook Tom Boonen of Belgium in the fi-nal few yards to capture 108-mile fifth stage in 4 hours, 27 minutes, 54 seconds, his second stage stage victory. The Team Colombia-High Road rider supplanted Fa-bian Cancellara of Switzerland as race leader. Cancel-lara had led since the opening time trial and dropped to fifth place.

Boonen, who rides for Quickstep, trails Greipel by six seconds in the standings after fading in the sprint finish.

Italy’s Daniele Bennati of Liquigas finished third. He is in third place overall, trailing Greipel by 17 seconds. Tyler Farrar of the United States finished fourth Thurs-day and is fourth in the standings.

Riders were coming off a rest day after the first four stages were run across the Netherlands and Belgium.

The sixth stage Friday starts and ends in Xativa, a 109-mile stage with two testing mountain climbs.

Last year’s Vuelta champion, Alberto Contador, and Lance Armstrong skipped the three-week race that ends in Madrid on Sept. 20.

Alberto Contador won’t race World Championships2009 Tour de France champion Al-

berto Contador has withdrawn from the cycling world championships.

Contador, who won his second Tour title in July, is not in top shape and doesn’t want to prevent another rider from competing at the worlds, spokesman Jacinto Vidarte said Thursday in an e-mail.

“After looking back at my season, and given the fact that I haven’t

competed since the Tour de France, we have decided it was better to give up my place to someone else,” Contador said in a statement.

The worlds road race is scheduled for Sept. 27 in Mendrisio, Switzer-land.

Thursday night now has a new name in Minturn — “$5 night.”

Every restaurant in town now will offer at least one menu item for $5 and one drink or drink special for $5 every Thursday night. With a variety of options every week, you can’t go wrong!

Stop by Gourmet Cowboy — the original home of a great list of $5 menu items on Thursday night, Chili Willy’s or the Minturn Saloon. Kirby Cosmo’s BBQ Bar will offer up great $5 barbecue specials and the Minturn Country Club will do what they do best with fresh meat and hot grills.

Newcomers like The Pantry and Ali’s Kitchen also have some great eats. Old-timers will head for The Turntable, with its familiar booths and yummy Mexi-can food

For the price, maybe you want to think of Thursdays as “cheap date night.” Just don’t tell your date.

And if you don’t have a date, don’t worry — there’s plenty of great entertainment for singles and families as well. Regional favorite The Radiators and a wine and cheese reception at a new art gallery kick off the enter-tainment for the premier event on Thursday.

Tickets to The Radiators are $25 in advance or $30 at

the door at Mango’s Mountain Grill in Red Cliff. Call (970) 827-9109 to make sure you get a spot at what is sure to be a sold-out show.

Gallery 151 holdsThe new Gallery 151 had so much fun at its recent

grand opening party, that owner Lael Engstrom is ready to do it all over again.

“We’re all businesses that are dependent on people coming to town. We’re not seasonal businesses (so) we’re trying to be creative and think outside of the box,” Engstrom said.

When other business owners realized how well Gour-met Cowboy restaurant was doing well with a $5 din-ner promotion, more of them decided to jump on the bandwagon, Engstrom said.

The Uptown Store, filled with for-sale furniture piec-es and other unique finds also will be open late, as will the ever-popular Holy Toledo stores, with their upscale consignment clothing.

“We want to keep from being a tumbleweed town in the offseason,” Engstrom said.

For more information about specific specials, call the restaurant you’re interested in patronizing. Or check in with Jay Raiola, president of the Minturn-Red Cliff Business Association and owner of My Mountain Real-tor. She’s at (970) 827-5371.

Hawaii court upholds freedom of smellThat proposal to bar smelly people from Honolulu

buses turned out to be a stinker.HONOLULU (AP) — The Honolulu City Council

had considered making it illegal to have “odors that unreasonably disturb others or interfere with their use of the transit system.” Anyone convicted of being too smelly could have been fined up to $500 and/or given a six-month jail term.

But officials and others wrinkled their noses at the plan during a hearing Thursday.

Lawyers from the city and the American Civil Lib-erties Union said it was vague and could lead to un-constitutionally subjective judgments. Members of the public pointed out that bad odors could be produced by disease, or be carried from a person’s workplace.

The council’s transportation committee then shelved it.But the idea still seems to be wafting around. Coun-

cilmen Rod Tam and Nestor Garcia say they may make revisions to their bill and reintroduce it later.

Mountain Division, which continues to play a crucial role in operations in Afghanistan today.

In fact, a couple active 10th Mountain troops came by to see Sandy’s presentation a few weeks ago. They were amazed with the rudimentary equipment used in the early days. “Today the equipment is fantastic, not like the pea shooters we had,” Treat said.

Sandy has been volunteering at the Ski Museum for the last two years. He says it’s his way of giving back to the ski community that has been so good to him over the years.

The Colorado Ski and Snowboard Museum was es-tablished to preserve and interpret the history of ski-ing and snowboarding. The Museum honors those in-

dividuals who have made significant contributions to the sport and educates the public about Colorado’s rich skiing legacy.

The Ski Museum highlights the 10th Mountain Divi-sion as one of the biggest influences on Colorado ski-ing history. The 10th Mountain Division of World War II trained 30 miles south of Vail at Camp Hale.

Known as the “Ski Troops,” the toughened soldiers learned to survive at high altitudes in sub-zero weather. With 90-pound packs on their backs, they scaled sheer cliffs and skied across treacherous mountain passes.

Pay Sandy a visit tonight and hear all about it. The Colorado Ski Museum is located within the Parking structure in Vail Village.

know exactly where he was stand-ing, almost,” Bassett said. “If the painting is done well, the subject almost becomes of secondary im-portance.”

Raila Kundolf, director of Mas-ters Gallery, also loves the “com-munity camaraderie” generated by the event.

“It’s more about people who … are too busy to smell the roses com-ing into the galleries,” Kundolf said. “It’s an energy and a buzz.”

Colorado artist Carrie Fell will be in the gallery signing posters to benefit Small Champions. Fell also donated the painting Gentle Lead-

ers to the group, which is being auc-tioned off.

Masters Gallery will serve up su-shi for the event from Manor Vail’s Lord Gore Restaurant.

Pismo Gallery, which displays and sells contemporary art glass, will be paired with La Tour restau-rant, its neighbor next door. Direc-tor Eva Pobjecka places the food in an artistic category all its own.

“Their dishes are always very colorful, which is a nice connection with our pieces,” Pobjecka said.

Worth Home also is showing off its home furnishings in the event, including the new Calvin Klein

furniture collection, said Julie Sera-cuse, a spokeswoman for the store.

“It’s going to be a great time for a great cause. We’re really excited about it.”

The Connoisseur’s Trail is from 5 to 7:30 p.m., and you can get tickets at any of the galleries. It kicks off the Gourmet on Gore event, held on the streets of downtown Vail with jazz and salsa performances, but without the art component.

For pre-sale tickets, call 476-6600. Maps to the galleries will be avail-able before the event at a tent set up near the main Vail Village parking structure.

they don’t have to.“If parents don’t want their children to watch it, we’re

providing alternative activities.”You need to call your school to find out if they plan

to show it.Angie Stevens isn’t shy about her disagreement with

the president’s plan, or the school district’s decision to make it available. She has one child in Eagle’s Brush Creek Elementary School and another in Eagle Valley Middle School.

“I teach my children to respect the office of the pres-ident,” Stevens said. “But we do not agree with this president’s beliefs or policies and I don’t want my chil-dren being indoctrinated with President Obama’s so-cialistic ideology.”

The White House helped craft the proposal for the U.S. Education Department, which is handling the broadcast. The idea sparked a firestorm of criticism from organizations accusing President Obama of try-ing to politicize the education system.

For prekindergarten to sixth-grade students, the Obama administration the kids “write letters to them-selves about what they can do to help the president.”

They were also encouraged to listen to the speech, then discuss what “the president wants us to do.”

The Obama administration rewrote their lesson plan. By Wednesday night, it suggested students “write let-ters to themselves about how they can achieve their short-term and long-term education goals. These would be collected and redistributed at an appropriate later date by the teacher to make students accountable to their goals.”

The White House insisted Thursday that the presi-dent’s speech is “about the value of education and the importance of staying in school as part of his effort to dramatically cut the dropout rate.”

Conservative talkshow hosts and Web sites are hav-ing a field day with the issue. From the other side, Democratic strategists said they could not think of any-thing less partisan.

Obama is not the first president to speak directly to the nation’s school children.

President George H.W. Bush did it 18 years ago, sending around a videotape, the cutting edge delivery system of the day. Bush, though, did it without the ac-companying homework.
