When it comes to hunting for mush-rooms in Colorado, there’s no simple trick for tracking them down. But every-one’s got a theory or two.

Mycologist Bill Windsor has dedicated most of his life to understanding where and why mushrooms grow, but he says folks looking learn about mushrooming should begin by focusing on one or two species and take it from there.

“It can be very daunting to try and identify them all at once,” Windsor said yesterday after leading mushroom semi-nar hosted by the Vail Valley chapter of Slow Food USA. “You should pick one or two mushrooms with very specific characteristics and just focus on those; that’s a great way to start.”

Windsor, a former president of the Colorado Mycological Society, said the three best mushrooms to focus on in this area are the king boletus (or porcini in

Italian), the morel, and the chanterelle.Luke Meyer agrees. The longtime lo-

cal and founding chef of the Left Bank restaurant in Vail Village has enjoyed mushroom hunting in the Vail area for

decades, and included his findings in many of the Left Bank’s dishes before he retired.

“I love to prepare them,” Meyer said.

Jacky Terrasson Trio plays Lionshead tonightJacky Terrasson is no stranger to the spotlight. When Terrasson won the prestigious Thelonious Monk piano competition in 1993, he proceeded to lead one of the defining jazz piano trios of that decade. By the mid-’90s, Terrasson was being hailed as one of the bright young lions on the traditional jazz scene. His self-titled 1995 debut for Blue Note Records drew high praise from all corners of the jazz world. His feathery keyboard touch is coupled with power and pas-sion and a complete understanding of the blues and improvisation. Terrasson is also a gifted arranger. Terrasson will be joined on stage by drummer Gerald Cleaver and bassist Ben Wil-liams. The show takes place at Vail Square in Lionshead, is free, and starts at 6 p.m.

Minturn finalizes medical marijuana ballot question

The Minturn Town Council approved the official medical marijuana ballot language for the November election at last night’s meeting with only one question about its wording.

The ballot question will read, “Shall the operation and licensing of medical marijuana centers optional premises cultivation operations, and medical marijua-na-infused products manufacturers be prohibited in the town of Minturn?”

Councilman Earle Bidez asked if there were any is-sues with the wording of the ballot question.

City Manager Jim White said, “No, there’s none.”And that’s that. Registered voters in Minturn will

weigh in on the above ballot question at the November 3 general election.

Other businessAlso at last night’s Minturn Town Council meeting,

Councilman Matt Scherr announced his resignation from the board.

“The October 6 meeting will be my last. I will be retiring my position,” said Scherr.

Scherr did not give a reason for his departure, howev-er later in the meeting he announced a possible move.

The council swore the three Planning Commission-ers that they previously voted in at the previous town meeting.

Frank Lorenti of Minturn, who put his name in for the possible open seat, showed concern over a potential “conflict of interest” against a previous board member and local architect, Stuart Brunnett.

“This is a non-issue. In the last two years this has come up two maybe three times, and I removed myself from the project,” said Brunnett.

‘Shall the operation and licensing of ... medical marijuana-infused products manufacturers shall be prohibited in the town of Minturn?’

Improvements to the Vail Golf Club will take place this fall and include rebuilding of the upper tees or back tees on hole seven, replacement of the bridges located on holes eleven and 17 and building new weather shel-ters on holes three and 11. Weather permitting, work will begin Sept. 27 and last through November and in-clude a variety of impacts to play at the golf course with the entire course scheduled for a single-day clo-sure on Oct. 4.

Vail Golf Club Superintendent Stephen Sarro says the improvements are taking place to address safety concerns and replace 40-year-old aging structures. Sar-ro says depending on the area of work taking place, the golf course will have from six to 13 holes open for play during construction.

“We’re scheduling work with the least impacts fea-sible to our golfers while being able to complete the work as quickly as possible,” said Sarro. “These proj-ects are going to result in positive impacts to both golf and Nordic experiences. Safety for our users is a top priority and these improvements will also ensure a safe and enjoyable course for future years.”

A schedule of the work is as follows and is subject to change:

• 7th Tee Box: Sept. 27 to Mid-NovemberThis six-week project will include work on the walls

and soil structure during the fall with final irrigation work and sod being installed during the spring. From Sept. 27 to Oct. 4, holes one, two and eight through 18 are scheduled to be available for play.

• Weather Shelters: Sept. 27 to Oct. 31

Weather shelters will be installed along holes three and eleven. The shelters will provide cover during storms, a shaded resting place and shelter when the lightning detection system sounds off. Construction of the shelters will not impact play on the golf course.

• Bridges: Oct. 4 to Oct. 31 Work to replace the bridges across Gore Creek on

holes 11 and 17 will take approximately two to four weeks and during installation will require closure of holes 11 through 17. Approximately six holes of golf will be available at all times during this work. Replace-ment of the bridges is needed to address the aging structures, enhance the creek banks and repair damage from the high creek water that occurred late this spring. The bridges will be wider than the current bridges to allow for year-round maintenance equipment.

Additional work is scheduled during the improve-ments including removal of beetle killed trees on holes two, five and eight, hollow tine and top dressing work on all practice greens and winterization of the irrigation system.

Discounts for daily green fees will occur during the work and vary depending on the amount of play avail-able. 2010 Punch Cards will not be valid in 2011 as the golf club will offer a variety of options to entice golf-ers to play at the Vail Golf Club during construction, including opportunities for unlimited play.

“We understand the work will be an inconvenience for our golfing community,” said club director Alice Plain. “We’ll offer great fall deals so that our golfers, both guests and visitors, can enjoy the best experience possible during the work.”

Golfers interested in following the progress of the fall construction and other information on golf course maintenance, can follow Sarro’s Blog at vailgcm.blog-spot.com. For details on the course work, contact Sarro at 479-2262.

Here in the U.S., you know you’ve made the big time as a skier when the U.S. Ski Team press office dedicates their staff entirely to you for one of their semi-regular news releases.

Yesterday, we received a re-lease dedicated solely to Heidi Kloser, the Vail native and World Cup Freestyle rookie of the year in 09-10. The ski team press of-fice had great things to say about the local up-and-comer.

“She has a bright future and has worked really hard to get to

this point,” Head Coach Scott Rawles was quoted saying in the release. “She went out to Lake Placid and worked with Wes Pres-ton, who helps Hannah [Kear-ney] when she’s jumping there. She trained with him in between camps in Park City, so she’s had a really busy summer.”

The focus of the release was to point out how hard Kloser’s been working, splitting her time be-tween Lake Placid and Park City.

“Kloser has dedicated her summer to flying high at the Lake

Placid and Utah Olympic Park wa-ter ramps,” it said.

Heidi’s dad Mike Kloser, said he was pretty excited to see the release, as well.

“I saw the posting hit the In-ternet yesterday, and I thought it was pretty cool that it was solely about Heidi. As her father, now I guess I have the right to brag a little bit,” Kloser said.

Other U.S. Ski Team members to receive releases entirely about them this year include Lindsey Vonn and Bode Miller.

ENTERTAINMENT

Now playing in the Vail Valley

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

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

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

“The Expendables” is a hard-hitting action/thriller about a group of mercenaries hired to infiltrate a South American country and overthrow its ruthless dictator. Written, directed by and starring Sylvester Stallone, the dynamic cast also includes Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Steve Austin, Terry Crews and Mickey Rourke.


gade, 2nd Infantry Division, it was a moment of relief fraught with symbolism. Seven years and five months after the U.S.-led invasion, the last American combat brigade was leaving Iraq, well ahead of President Ba-rack Obama’s Aug. 31 deadline for ending U.S. combat operations there.

American presence has become commonplace in Iraq since the invasion began on March 20, 2003.

That presence is far from over. Scatterings of combat troops still await departure, and some 50,000 will stay another year in what is designated as a noncombat role. They will carry weapons to defend themselves and ac-company Iraqi troops on missions (but only if asked). Special forces will continue to help Iraqis hunt for ter-rorists.

So the U.S. death toll — at least 4,415 by Pentagon count as of yesterday — may not yet be final.

Egg recall tied to salmonella grows

to 380 millionHundreds of people have been sickened in a salmo-

nella outbreak linked to eggs in four states and possibly more, health officials said yesterday as a company dra-matically expanded a recall to 380 million eggs.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is working with state health departments to investigate the illnesses. No deaths have been reported, said Dr. Christopher Braden, a CDC epidemiologist involved in the investigation.

Much of the investigation so far has been centered on restaurants in California, Colorado, Minnesota and North Carolina. They are not necessarily breakfast places — it’s possible some got sick from eating a salad dressing that had a raw egg in it, or eating soup with an undercooked egg dropped in, Braden said.

Initially, 228 million eggs, or the equivalent of 19 mil-lion dozen-egg cartons, were recalled by the company Wright County Egg of Galt, Iowa. But that number was increased to nearly 32 million dozen-egg cartons.

The initial recall was issued last week. Eggs affected by the expanded recall were distributed to food whole-salers, distribution centers and food service companies in California, Colorado, Minnesota, Arkansas, Arizona, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Oklahoma, Oregon, Missouri,

Nebraska, Nevada, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wis-consin.

The most common symptoms of salmonella are diar-rhea, abdominal cramps and fever within eight hours to 72 hours of eating a contaminated product. It can be life-threatening, especially to those with weakened immune systems.

This form of salmonella can be passed from chickens that appear healthy. And it grows inside eggs, not just on the shell, Braden noted.

Thoroughly cooking eggs can kill the bacteria. But health officials are recommending people throw away or return the recalled eggs.

Dr. Laura plans to end radio show at end of yearTalk show host Laura Schlessinger says her desire

to talk freely without having affiliates and sponsors at-tacked led to her abrupt decision to end her “Dr. Laura” radio show later this year.

Schlessinger said she is walking away a week after apologizing for saying the N-word 11 times on the air while talking to a black woman with a white husband, then saying “if you’re that hypersensitive about color and don’t have a sense of humor, don’t marry out of your race.”

She apologized a day after the Aug. 10 remarks, but Media Matters for America called for her removal from the talk show. The group encouraged its members to contact show sponsors and affiliates and urge them to drop “Dr. Laura.”

Schlessinger said Tuesday on CNN’s “Larry King Live” that her daily talk show will end when her con-tract expires this year, with the last show probably around Christmas. She said she was wrong to say what she said, was sorry for it, but “there are people who won’t accept my apology.”

traceptive enhances the brain’s “conversation hub,” a discovery that will certainly give women plenty to talk about.

Grey matter essential for memory and social skills also grows in size, the article says. Differences in brain structure between the sexes have been studied many times before but this is the first study that has looked at the impact of the hormonal contraceptive on the brain, the Mail reports.

The study found that the contraceptive of choice of 3.5 million British women -- a quarter of all 16 to 49-year-olds -- increases brain size by around 3 per-cent, according to the article.

Not a fairy tale endingA Muslim woman who works as a hostess at a Dis-

neyland restaurant alleged yesterday the theme park would not allow her to appear in front of customers while wearing her head scarf. Imane Boudlal, 26, ap-peared outside the resort’s Grand Californian Hotel af-ter filing a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

She said when she wore the hijab to work Sunday, her supervisors told her to remove it, work where custom-ers couldn’t see her, or go home. Boudlal, who wore the scarf in observance of Ramadan, chose to go home but reported to work for the next two days and was told the same thing.

Disneyland spokeswoman Suzi Brown said Disney has a policy not to discriminate. The resort offered Boudlal a chance to work with the head covering away from customers while Disneyland tries to find a com-promise that would allow Boudlal to cover her head in a way that fits with her hostess uniform, Brown said.

“Typically, somebody in an on-stage position like hers wouldn’t wear something like that, that’s not part of the costume,” Brown said. “We were trying to accommo-date her with a backstage position that would allow her to work. We gave her a couple of different options and she chose not to take those and to go home.”

Arnold sending troops to Mexican border

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger yesterday said he was sending more than 200 national guard troops to the California-Mexico border, according to the LA Times.

After a tour of the border yesterday, Schwarzenegger said he plans to have 224 troops in place by Sept. 1, the Times reports.

“These men and women will provide much-needed assistance to help secure our border, but it’s important to remember that this is only the beginning,” Schwarzeneg-ger was quoted saying in the article. “We must find a permanent solution to our broken immigration system.

We need the federal government to step up with even more manpower and funding, and I will continue to push President Obama and Congress for action.”

J.D. Salinger’s toilet up for auction

It’s almost as if “The Catcher in the Rye” author J.D. Salinger saw this moment coming in 1953 when he re-treated in growing distress about

his own fame to small-town New Hampshire and be-came a notorious recluse, according to NewsObserver.com.

Salinger’s toilet, the ultimate symbol of privacy for a man notorious for defending his, is being auctioned on eBay, writes the Web site’s Jay Price.

A well-known memorabilia and collectibles dealer based in Kernersville who has stalked Salinger items for years is reportedly asking the standard eBay hey-look-at-this-bizarre-thing-I’ve-got price of $1 million but said he’s open to reasonable offers.

Sin City named most stressful

Forbes magazine found Las Vegas to be the most stressful city in the country, followed by Los Angeles, Calif., and Houston, Texas, according to Yahoo.com.

To pinpoint the most stressed-out cities, the report measured the country’s largest metropolitan areas on six metrics that can either cause or be caused by stress: high unemployment, long commute times, long work hours, limited access to health care, poor physical health and a lack of exercise, the article says. Tampa, Florida, and Riverside, California, reportedly round out the top five.

Tongue patch for dietersThe LA Times has reportedly received PR materials

on a recently popular Californian weight-loss treatment in which you tie up your tongue “as a constant and dai-ly reminder of [the] desire and choice to lose weight,” according to the newspaper.

On further reading, it doesn’t seem quite like tying (but it still sounds uncomfortable), as, according to the PR information, the tongue is measured, then a patch is cut from surgical mesh and attached to your tongue, the article says. While affixed, it reportedly “causes discomfort when the patient tries to eat or chew.” The “ideal patient” can experience 15 to 30 pounds of weight loss in a month on a liquid diet, the publicists are quoted saying in the article, and then the patch is removed.

Take off patch when near chocolate

The destructive effects of illicit anabolic steroids on heart function, as well as the helpful effects of choco-late consumption, may be widely assumed by physi-cians and patients, according to the LA Times. But two new studies - published by the American Heart Asso-ciation - actually deliver the evidence, the article says.

Most know that eating chocolate - particularly dark chocolate - lowers blood pressure and risk of cardio-vascular disease, according to the Times. But a study, published online on Monday, reportedly finds that it protects women, at least, against heart failure as well.

Researchers followed 31,823 Swedish women ages 48 to 83 for nine years and tallied their chocolate consump-tion, according to the article. For those who ate one to three servings of chocolate per month, their risk of heart failure fell 25 percent, and those who ate one to two serv-ings of chocolate per week saw a 30 percent reduction in risk during the study period, the Times reports.

Famous implant surgeon plunges

car off Malibu cliffCelebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Frank Ryan, who made

headlines for performing multiple sur-geries on reality TV star Heidi Montag, has died. He was 50 years old.

The California Highway Patrol says Ryan’s 1995 Jeep Wrangler went off the side of Pacific Coast Highway near Malibu and landed on its roof Monday afternoon. He was reportedly texting at the time of the crash, and may have had his border collie, Jill, riding in his lap. According to the doctor’s twitter page, he had just stopped and snapped a pic of his dog atop the beach dunes to post on the social media Web site. Besides Montag, Ryan’s celebrity clientele in-cluded musician Vince Neil, actor Lorenzo Lamas, re-ality stars Lisa Gastineau and Adrianne Curry and sev-eral models and beauty queens.

Montag, who underwent 10 procedures in one day with Ryan late last year, took to Twitter to share her reaction to his death.

“I am devastated,” the 23-year-old wrote on the micro-blogging site Tuesday. “He was the most amaz-ing person I have ever known. He was an angel and changed my life and the lives of everyone he met. He was the most brilliant talented surgeon who will ever exist. Dr. Frank Ryan changed the world.”

Woods/Williams breakup unlikelyNot to be confused with Woods/Woods breakup

Tiger Woods caddie Steve Williams told New Zealand radio yesterday that he and Woods remain close friends and there is no possibility their working rela-tionship is about to end.

“I’m sure if there was going to be some sort of parting of the ways, I’d be the first to know,” he said. “From my point of view, I don’t see any chance of that happening.”

Williams said Woods had no plans to change his key personnel, though he has struggled to regain form after taking a break from the PGA Tour amid revela-tions of marital infidelities.

“People speculate. He’s not playing well and his results aren’t what we’re used to,” Williams, of New Zealand, said. “Tiger and I are very good friends and we’ve been through a tough time. There’s no question about that.

“I’m fully supportive of the guy and he’s been great through this whole situa-tion with me.”

Woods consulted with swing coach Sean Foley at the PGA, but it’s unclear whether he will work with him full time.

“He hasn’t decided if that’s the coach who’s going to be with him, but I really like what this new guy had to say and

what his theories are,” Williams said. “If Tiger decides to stick with Sean, I be-lieve he’ll get better. It might take a little while.”

Woods finished 28th at last week’s PGA Championship in Wisconsin, a week after posting the worst 72-hole total of his career—18 over par—at the Bridgestone Invitational event in Ohio.

Williams said nobody should rush to the conclusion Woods was losing his ability or his aura.

“At the end of the day, Tiger Woods is Tiger Woods,” Williams said. “He’s won 14 majors and 71 PGA Tour events. Regardless of what’s gone on, you can’t take that away from the guy.

“Tiger knows how to win and people know that he knows how to win. When he gets back in the situation where he’s playing well again and he’s in contention to win, he’ll get the job done.”

Williams said Woods remained hope-ful of being selected by U.S. captain Corey Pavin for the Ryder Cup.

“It’s one of the biggest events in the world and anybody that’s played in it before always has the desire to play in it again,” Williams said. “We’ve got a couple more weeks to show him (Pavin) that he’s playing better.”

Tiger Woods and caddie Steve Wil-liams watch a ball on the third tee during a practice round for the PGA Championship golf tourna-ment in Haven, Wis., last Tuesday. Steve Williams doesn’t believe his job as Tiger Woods’ caddie is under any threat, despite media speculation about their 11-year association and concern over the champion golfer’s form. AP Photo.

Brett Favre rejoins VikingsThe last time the world

saw Brett Favre in action, the 40-year-old was barely able to walk off the turf fol-lowing a beating at the hands of the New Orleans Saints in January’s NFC title game.

Favre was one play away from his goal—taking the Minnesota Vikings to the Super Bowl—when he threw an interception in the final minute of regulation, then watched from the sidelines as the Saints kicked the win-ning field goal in overtime.

“Believe me, when I left New Orleans, a big part of me was—I don’t want to say done—but the fact that we lost that game, how hard it is,” Favre said, his voice trailing off.

Ryan Longwell, Steve Hutchinson and Jared Al-len, his three closest friends

on the team, unexpectedly arrived at his doorstep on Monday night.

“We need an answer, yes or no,” they told Favre. “We’re either going home with you or moving on with-out you.”

So here we are, with Favre about to start his 20th NFL season.

“I’ve done it all. There’s nothing left for me to prove,” said Favre, who joined the Vikings for practice yester-day. “I’m here to have fun, help these guys win. I really enjoy this group of guys like you wouldn’t believe. I think the feeling is mutual.”

The gray-haired Favre threw 33 touchdowns and only seven interceptions to lead the Vikings to the NFC North title last season.

WHY NOT?: Minnnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre addresses the media during a news confer-ence after NFL football training camp yesterday in Eden Prairie, Minn. The Vikings in need of an answer, Brett Favre announced he would return to quarterback the team this season. AP Photo.

Allen Agency to host Chamber mixer tonight

The local BMX bicycle race se-ries runs every Sunday afternoon until it’s too cold to ride, and that won’t happen this week.

Signups start at 12:30 p.m. Rac-ing follows as soon as everyone is signed up.

The track is in Eagle, next to the Eagle pool and ice rink.

Local BMX racers dedicated the new track a few weeks ago with a ribbon cutting and general fun hav-

ing. The town of Eagle donated the land and WECMRD is helping run the program. Local volunteers helped build it. You can do a one-race trial for free. A one-month membership to the American Bicycle Associa-tion costs $35; a year membership is $45.

You are required to wear full face helmet is required to race. That keeps you from getting your nose scuffed up if you crash, which race

organizers say hardly ever happens except to someone else. You also need to wear long sleeved shirts and long pants.

The American Bicycle Associa-tion is the largest BMX sanctioning body in the world right now.

For information call Mountain Pedlar in Eagle at 328-3478.

They’re also running starting gate practice at the BMX track, 6:30 p.m. Thursdays. It costs $3.

“I really like the chanterelle sautéed in olive oil and chalets. And then when they’re just right, you add butter, some fresh herbs and salt and pepper. That’s a very good way. Or you can add them to a nice risotto or with pasta.”

Meyer is originally from France, and he said he enjoys hunting for mushrooms in Colorado, where we have a plethora of public land, more than in Europe.

There, everyone is looking for mushrooms – but they go with a gun, Meyer said with a laugh.

Boletus is KingThe King Boletus, which is associated with

pine trees, is one of the most sought-after edibles in the world. It thrives here in the Colorado high country because the elevation changes allow for a longer season. They may thrive at 9,000 feet one week and at 10,000 feet the next, whereas in flat environment, they’ll come and go more rapidly.

Windsor was introduced to mushroom hunting at a young age by his uncle in Ger-

many. As a college student in Long Island, his continued interest was driven by really wanting to eat them and by the fact that they were free, as a lot of college students can ap-preciate.

“I would really study the area,” Wind-sor said. “Where are these things growing? Are they growing near the water? Are they growing next to dead trees? Are they grow-ing next to live tress? Are they growing on a hilltop or a hillside? Over time you get a very good sense of the different environments that mushrooms grow in, but there’s no single, quick trick for finding them.”

Windsor said the percentage of mushrooms that are prime edibles and percentage that are deadly poisonous are exactly the same: 2 percent. Everything in between is simply compost. But, if you do some research, con-suming wild mushrooms that you’ve picked yourself is extremely safe.

The nutritional benefits vary from ’shroom to ’shroom, but several contain protein that is more easily digested in the body than that from meat. Mushrooms also contain minerals

and polysaccharides that can prevent cancer, build the immune system and lower blood pressure – just to name a few of the healthy benefits.

The best way to get involved in mushroom hunting is by contacting a mycology society (there are several in Colorado) or by check-ing out a book on the subject. Windsor says the two best for this area are “Mushrooms of Colorado” by Vera Evenson, which is avail-able at the Bookworm in Edwards, and “All that the Rain Promises and More” by David Aurora.

There are also several mushroom festivals happening this summer including the local Eagle Mushroom Festival in Eagle this week-end, the King Boletus Festival in Buena Vis-ta, also this weekend, and the Crested Butte Wild Mushroom Festival.

The Eagle Mushroom festival starts tomor-row and runs through Sunday. Check out the Eagle Ranch Pavilion Studio Building Satur-day evening for a mushroom cook-up as part of the festival.
