Cally Smith’s mother, Cammy, shows where Cally’s processor attaches to a cochlear implant under her skin. Cally, 9, was born with bilateral hearing loss and had surgery for a cochlear implant at 14 months old. Her device works by picking up sound and transmitting it to a series of electrodes that stimulate the hearing nerve in her inner ear.

Technology gives sisters the chance to hear BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

COOS BAY — The decision to put a child through surgery is hard enough, but when the procedure is to place a cochlear implant in a deaf child, many in the deaf community see that as a threat to deaf culture. Cammy and Josh Smith lead a relatively normal life raising seven children in Coos Bay — but two of their daughters were born with bilateral hearing loss. Jaycee is an eighth-grader at Marshfield High, and Cally is homeschooled in third grade. Both have cochlear implants. Cammy and Josh didn’t know Jaycee was deaf until she was 5 months old. One day when baby Jaycee was crying in her crib, Cammy slid in the room so Jaycee couldn’t see her and stood behind the crib. “Jaycee. Jaycee, I’m right here,” Cammy called out. Jaycee didn’t react. Doctors confirmed what they knew, that she was deaf, and discussed cochlear implants. The implants are devices surgically placed under the skin that use electric, instead of acoustic, stimulation to represent sound and speech. “She was perfect how she was,” Josh said. “I wasn’t against (cochlear implants), but I was concerned by the risks.” When Jaycee was 3, the family moved to Coos Bay and put her in the South Coast Education Service District’s preschool program, where she worked on sign language and speech. Deafness is not a “life or death” situation, Cammy pointed out, though she did support the implant. Josh was hesitant, but then he thought, what if Jaycee couldn’t hear a car coming? That idea brought him on board. “But that’s hard to explain to a 5-year-old,” he said. “We asked her: Do you want to hear?” She did. “It’s a heated subject in the deaf community,” said Dr. Todd Landsberg, South Coast ESD audiologist. “It’s a real controversy ... because they see professionals as possibly trying to ‘fix’ their culture.” With the implants, Jaycee and Cally don’t spend much time with other deaf people. “A lot of people think you have to be one or the other: hearing or deaf,” Josh said. “They say you can’t be both. It’s ridiculous.” Landsberg has handled three cochlear implant cases in Coos and Curry counties during his three years with the ESD. SEE IMPLANTED | A8

Sisters Jaycee and Cally Smith were born with bilateral hearing loss and had surgery for cochlear implants at ages 5 and 1. While the Smith family decided to get cochlear implants for their daughters, many in the deaf community deeply oppose changing their culture with technology.

SPECIAL VIDEO REPORT: IMPLANTED

COOS BAY — The initial directors of the South Coast Community Foundation adopted the new bylaws — and resigned immediately after. On Friday, the original three people who were called upon to build and direct the formation of SCCF — Bill Lansing, John Whitty and Joanne Verger — decided to hand over the organization to a new board and leave. “...the directors felt that they had done all things necessary to allow the foundation to move forward,” the three wrote in a news release. They approved the amended SCCF bylaws proposed by the Community Enhancement Plan work group, recognized the foundation’s four Inside members and appointed Port picks SCCF reprefour new directors, all sentative; cities to effective Monday. appoint members in Jordan Cove Energy coming weeks. Page A2 Project’s application for a rural long-term enterprise zone property tax exemption must be decided by the four Bay Area Enterprise Zone Coos County, the Oregon sponsors: International Port of Coos Bay, and the cities of Coos Bay and North Bend. In lieu of property taxes, the agreement would require Jordan Cove to pay a community service fee every year. Those fees would be funneled through a proposed Community Enhancement Plan, currently being hashed out by a work group of local officials from the four enterprise zone sponsors. SEE SCCF | A8

Coos Bay to leave cross atop veterans memorial ■

COOS BAY — A controversial memorial cross in Coos Bay’s Mingus Park will remain where it is for the foreseeable future. Mayor Chrystal Shoji confirmed Friday that the Mingus Park Vietnam War Memorial and its cross will remain where they are, and that the city plans to deal with any legal challenges as they come down the road. “The council is taking no action on the veterans memorial in Mingus Park,” Shoji said Friday. “That’s all we have to say.” The mayor’s statement comes after a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling affirming the constitutionality of legislative prayer. The city had previously cited the then-pending ruling in delaying its decision on what to do with the memorial’s controversial cross, whose removal has been demanded by the Freedom From Religion Foundation and the American Civil Liberties Union. After a heated public meeting in March 2013, the city retained the services of the Texas-based Liberty Institute to conduct a legal assessment of the cross. The results of the assessment, which were discussed by the council in executive session, haven’t been publicly released.

Port appoints commissioners to SCCF seats BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

COOS BAY — The South Coast Community Foundation now has a fourth director on its board. Oregon International

Port of Coos Bay commissioners unanimously approved commission Vice President Eric Farm as their SCCF member representative at their meeting Thursday night. The member representative will speak and vote for the port at

SCCF’s annual member meeting. The port also appointed commission Treasurer Brianna Hanson to SCCF’s board of directors. So far, Bill Lansing, John Whitty and Joanne Verger have been appointed as the three initial

directors by three of the four Bay Area Enterprise Zone sponsors: the North Bend and Coos Bay City Councils and the port. Coos County commissioners will vote on the matter at their June 3 meeting. The port received one

statement of interest for the SCCF board position, from Mill Casino-Hotel sales manager Lucinda DiNovo. “I think she’s an excellent candidate to serve on the foundation board, but in its initial stages, while the

Deputy rescues couple from Coquille swamp COQUILLE — A South Coast couple who got lost in a swamp Wednesday night were rescued by a Coos County marine deputy. According to the Coos County Sheriff's Office, 34year-old Melissa Bishop of North Bend and 38-year-old Michael Wellard of Coquille were rescued just after 4 a.m. Thursday in the Beaver Marsh area across from Coaledo Scales. The couple had called 911 10:40 p.m. around Wednesday saying they had gotten lost while hiking. Wellard had lost his sandals early on in the hike and suffered scrapes on his feet. Deputies couldn’t get to the area on foot because of thick vegetation, and ultimately used a boat to return the couple to the highway.

A MINUTE MESSAGE From

NORM RUSSELL

Memorial Day America has untold thousands of memorials that you could find without much searching. Some of them bring to mind momentous victories while others are reminders of something unpleasant. Some are dedicated to people while others are a reminder of some event that took place that changed the course of history. God was big on memorials in the Old Testament. He used rocks and feasts as a reminder of something. One memorial became a source of trouble for Israel. It was the bronze snake that Moses made when God sent venomous snakes into the crowd of people. God told him to make a snake and put it on a pole and if anyone who was bitten by a snake could look at the pole with a snake and live. In II Kings 18, We find that Israel had taken that bronze snake and was worshiping it. The Lord gave us memorials. The Lord’s Supper, often referred to as communion, is a reminder of what Jesus did for us on the cross. It is to be a time of reflecting and as we each partake, we look inward and thank God for His grace. Come worship with us Sunday.

Tangible support for our vets Our view Ceremony is nice, but our military veterans need real health care to feel genuinely respected.

What do you think? The World welcomes letters. Email us at letters@theworldlink.com.

This is the Memorial Day weekend. Typically, we think of this three-day weekend as the beginning of the summer vacation season, filled with parades, cook-outs, picnics, festivals, etc. But we also remember every year the real reason for the holiday — to remember the men and women who died while serving in America’s Armed Forces. We gather for services, sometimes listen to inspiring words from speakers, we salute our flag and say prayers. We find it tragically ironic that news from our nation’s

capital seems to fly in the face of those whose memory we honor this weekend. Earlier this week, we learned along with Congress about obscenely long wait times being endured by military veterans needing service, and how VA employees kept false records to hide the facts. Some vets died while waiting for care. How can that be? Not many productive answers have been forthcoming from the Obama administration or Congress, for that matter. Calls for the ouster of VA Secretary Eric Shinseki is so much grandstanding. Shinseki’s own offer to resign, rejected by

President Obama this week, is no answer of substance either. And what’s more tragic, this story of disrespect toward veterans by our government has been repeated too many times in our history. Our government mouths platitudes, but fails to follow through with fiscal commitment. Think, for example, of the Bonus Army, World War I veterans who marched on Washington, D.C., in the summer of 1932 demanding payments they believed they were owed. In response, President Herbert Hoover had the Army run them off. We can stage all the parades and memorial serv-

ices we want. But we won’t be making a difference in the lives of our veterans while travesties like this is allowed to continue. So, this weekend, while you’re raising an American flag in your front yard, take a moment to raise hell with your Congressional representative. Hold our elected officials accountable. Insist they fund VA programs adequately and pick the right people to administer them. And don’t ever let up. Respect for our veterans has to be something more than a parade or a memorial service.

Cheers Jeers

& Sweet sound of success

Way to go, North Bend High School symphonic band! First place in the 4A division at the 2014 Band/Orchestra Championships. State First time in the school’s history. Nice work, students and band director Amber Yester. Nice work, too, proud parents. We bet that this makes all those hours having to listen to ear-splitting practice scales worth it. Bask in the glory, NBHS!

Letters to the Editor

Raising funds to raise good kids Hats off to all who helped the Boys & Girls Club of Southwestern Oregon raise about $35,000 last week at the 17th annual Ladies Luncheon. About 500 showed up for the organization’s third largest fundraiser to dine and mix with club volunteers and youth who’ve benefited from the services Boys & Girls clubs offer. It’s a good thing.

Feathered friends — or fiends? Environmentalists say they’ve spotted the federally protected murrelets in a section of the Elliott State Forest that a timber company just bought. Seneca Jones was planning to cut trees in the Hakki Ridge parcel it just bought. Then Coast Range Forest Watch comes along this week and says it sees murrelet nesting behavior. Don’t fire up the chain saws just yet, guys.

Bless this boat Time for blessings of the fleets. Port of Bandon holds its ceremony today at 11 a.m., followed by a marine swap meet. The Charleston Marina ceremony is scheduled for Monday, 10 a.m. Names will be added to the plaques in memory of fishermen and the industry, as well as one name to the “Lost at Sea” plaque — Robert Allen Partipilo. A coffee and cake reception follows at the Porter Hall Activity Center. Stay safe this season, mariners.

Smack II So, Bandon’s got its hired gun for this spring’s mosquito control in the Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge. At a community meeting last week, Dan Markowski of Vector Disease Control International gave residents the best predator control quote since Robert Shaw’s promise to the residents of Amity in the movie “Jaws:” “That’s all I do, pretty much, is go out there and kill those suckers.” Yikes!

Remembering the fallen U.S. military death tolls in Afghanistan as of Friday:

Critics should go; not the cross Your opinion to let the cross go? Why not let The World newspaper go instead. And vote out any city council member who goes along with this. You and people like you are the same who spit on us and called us baby killers. All of us vets who served have guts to fight to keep it where it is. Dale Lemmons Coos Bay

Mingus cross should stay put What does a Supreme Court ruling concerning Christian prayer have to do with a Vietnam memorial in Mingus Park? The cross is not in the park as a religious symbol, it is a memorial to our veterans. Why does The World newspaper side with the idiots from out of town and refer to it as a reli-

gious symbol? Once in an article about the bombings and now in an editorial. Leave our memorial where it is. Carol J. Taylor Coos Bay

Vets sacrificed for that cross Now let me get this straight, The World is encouraging the Coos Bay City Council to get on it’s knees before the Freedom From Religion Foundation and to turn it’s back on the very veterans who fought, were wounded and died to ensure the rights of the United States Constitution, so even perverted and cowardly organizations like the one mentioned above can exist! The World feels the council “should avoid what could be a costly and time consuming legal battle". I ask The World, can you put a dollar amount on the life of a United State Marine? A simple cross, in a public park, in a city, county, state and country that

exists only because of the sacrifices of the men and women who served in our armed forces. Shame on you. The “infrastructure problems” are real and need to be addressed but not at the cost of turning our backs on our veterans. As for the Freedom From Religion Foundation, I doubt if any of them know the feeling of being in a firefight or going weeks without a hot meal or dry socks. As a United States Navy hospital corpsman, who proudly served two tours with the United States Marines, I can only say I’m sickened by your opinion on the Vietnam War Memorial Cross. God bless our veterans. Jay Straley Bandon

Memorial Day event is a treat The Marshfield High School Memorial Day Assembly is a unique multimedia event that

fosters respect for local and national history, and Memorial Day. The presentation, which has a different theme each year, elicits emotion and promotes understanding by combining anecdotes, music and images. We are able to relate in a personal way. This year, the assembly honored service and sacrifice of the armed forces during World War I. Student research, art and presentations are the basis. Public speaking, technology and music are all key components. The students provide this wonderful program at an assembly, and members of the public are invited to attend. Thanks to MHS Principal Douglas Holland, advisors Stacy Gulseth and Cricket Souls, and all of the teachers, students and community members who participate in this wonderful program.

From anti-bullying to positive norms BY DEBORAH MAHER As I reflect on this past week, I am struck by common themes that affirms community wellbeing. One is from a fourth-grader writing a letter to this newspaper with a message to end bullying: “Change bullying to be nice … People are different … it doesn’t matter. It would be cool to love each other.” The other was a workshop on Positive Community Norms. One view from a young student is calling for an end to intimidation and bullying and the other viewpoint lives in the world as if community norms are already positive. Today, we see anti-bully campaigns pervading our schools especially after so many shootings. We know that bullying can escalate to gun toting kids who feel they are not seen or heard and worst of all they feel they are not loved and do not belong, in short, they are hurting. What we have learned from the anti-bullying campaigns is that “hurt people, hurt people.” And this is true for grown-ups too. Bullies do not feel seen or heard and feel that they must attack others to assert their place in the world and prevent perceived attacks. So what is

needed to turn this around? Love! Yes, I said it — the “L” word. Bullying is a call for love! Perhaps you remember from Sunday School days when you PAT that BUCHANAN learned Jesus reminded Columnist us,“to love your enemies” and that forgiveness is the surest way to disarm bullies. The way I see it,to stop bullying one must do three things; 1) have self respect, draw personal boundaries and hold your ground, 2) call it out; name it when you see it, 3) join with others who share values that affirm “being nice.” It is not OK for someone to intimidate you and attempt to instill fear, whether it is the school yard bully, a neighbor, a public figure or a partner.It is time that we all start turning the tide from negative community norms to positive community norms. And the good news — it is happening! Just last week, the Commission on Children and Families Health and Human Services hosted a workshop conducted by Montana State University on creating posi-

tive norms. We learned that the key is to shifting from negative community norms to positive community norms is to challenge assumptions. Assumptions based on fear, (false evidence appearing real) lead to attacks in all of their various forms, ranging from verbal slights, written word or physical threats. Our assumptions are based on our view of the world and, according to Albert Einstein, it all starts from one fundamental question, “Is the universe a friendly place?” If you see it as unfriendly and fearful place, you are ready to attack it before it attacks you. If you see it as friendly place, you expect to see possibility even in the face of serious concerns. Annamarie McMahill, the researcher from Montana State, made the distinction between having a “fear” and having a “concern,” and that a shift occurs when we balance a concern with hope, because hope pulls us into a positive future and creates new cultural norms. When people are open to new possibilities, it means leaving a familiar and, perhaps, fearful place (the “known”) and launching in a new direction where we possibly “see” others, and where we acknowledge each other’s personhood without

diminishing, demeaning or bullying each other. We all need to belong, to be seen and as Mark Nepo, a leading contemporary philosopher, reminds us: “As far back as we can remember, people of the oldest tribes, unencumbered by civilization, have been rejoicing in being on this earth together. Not only can we do this for each other, it is essential. For as stars need open space to be seen, as waves need shore to crest, as dew needs grass to soak into, our vitality depends on how we exclaim and rejoice, ‘I see you! I am here!’” My hope is that we grown-ups can find a way to actualize a fourth-grader’s call to “be nice” and to “see each other” even if we have different views of the world.

Gary Wayne Roberts, 68, of Eugene was born Sept. 27, 1945, at Portland Adventist Hospital to Robert Donald Roberts and Nellie Julia Fitzhugh. Following the untimely death of his father, Gary was raised by his mother with special help from his maternal g ra n d pa r ents, Lloyd and Sadie Gary Roberts F i t z h u g h , and his uncle Vernon Roberts. Gary enjoyed his time growing up in Portland with his brothers, Vern Roberts, Scott Roberts, and sister, Julie Roberts. He also spent many hours as a youth with his cousins, Patty Simon and Jerry Strange. Gary attended Madison High School in Portland. He married Darlene Wayman. They had four children together, two daughters and two sons, whom he maintained a relationship with throughout his life, Robert “Robbie” Roberts and Gerald “Jerry” Roberts. During his time in Portland Gary worked as a roofer and general contractor In 1977, Gary married Florence Alene Trosper and relocated in 1985 to Coos Bay, where the couple raised their three wonderful children; Gary Roberts Jr., Wendy (Roberts) Hamilton, and Andrew Roberts. While living in Coos Bay, Gary enjoyed spending time with his sons, Robbie and Jerry, and their families, and with his inlaws, including Keith and Mary Brown, Betty Warden, Tilda Thomas, Ben Trosper, Scott Brown, Ronald Brown, Michael Brown, Kellie Brown and Mitchell Brown, and his Trudie daughter-in-law Rouske. Gary loved his extended family that came with having so many in-laws and always looked forward to Christmas Eve gatherings at the Browns, and the summer family reunion at Simpson Park. Gary spent 20-plus wonderful years working at E L Edwards Realty as their lead contractor and truly loved and appreciated his association with Norma and Laverne Edwards, and there children, Terry and Joyce Edwards.

Barbara Joyce Christensen April 2, 1941 – May 11, 2014

A memorial Mass will be held for Barbara J.Christensen, 73,of Coos Bay,at 2 pm.Friday, May 30, at Coos Bay Chapel, 685 Anderson Ave., with the Rev. Jim Graham presiding. Private cremation rites were held at Ocean View Memory Gardens in Coos Bay. B a r b a ra born was Barbara Christensen April 2, 1941, in Spokane, Wash., to Silas Parker Aylsworth and Ruby V.(Jansen) Aylsworth. She passed away peacefully May 11, 2014, at her home in Coos Bay. Barbara married Harold

staff and clients, including his nephew, Jesse Trosper. When not working Gary had several leisure activities that he enjoyed. One of his favorite was coaching his children in baseball at the youth level through SWOYA and Coos Bay Coast Little League. His kids, along with their teammates brought Gary great joy as he developed several strong teams during the late 1980s and early 1990s with Gary Jr. playing, and in the early 2000s coaching his youngest child Andrew. He was proudest of his 2002 team that went 32-0 in the regular season and finished second in the regional qualifying tournament. Another pleasure was watching his kids and their friends compete and accumulate success in high school athletics. He took great pride in watching his son Gary Jr. play on the Marshfield football teams during their successful playoff runs during the 1994 and 1995 season. After football season, Gary became a wrestling dad and drove all around the state of Oregon to watch Gary Jr. and his fellow Pirates win tournament after tournament. He took pride in watching Gary Jr. win a state championship and become an All-American in 1996. He loved watching his daughter Wendy play volleyball, softball, and cheerleading during her time at Marshfield. Gary was so proud of his youngest son Andrew, who won a state championship and was first team all state on both offense and defense playing for Sheldon High School in Eugene. These moments of watching his kids brought Gary a feeling of accomplishment as a parent that he provided his children with the opportunities to be successful and surround them with impactful peers. When not being involved with his children’s athletics, Gary enjoyed the free time he had at his small cabin on Tenmile Lake in Lakeside. These times were special for Gary as he was able to connect with his daughter, Wendy during their trips to lake. The cabin also gave Gary the opportunity to spend time with his brother, Vern, his wife, Shawn, and their children, Nick Roberts, James Roberts and Holly Roberts. Many family vacations were spent camping, boating, tubing and fishing in Lakeside. In Gary’s later years the family moved to Eugene and Gary enjoyed spending time watching his children grow into outstanding adults. He loved spending time talking on the phone and getting visits from his son, Robbie. Additionally, he was so

happy to see his children enter into happy and successful marriages. Gary Jr. married to Lisa Blackburn in 2008, Wendy married Ty Hamilton in 2011, and Andrew married Chelsea Welding in 2011. Gary also wanted to spend time and love his young grandchildren, Tyler Wright, Weston Wright, Brock Hamilton, and Allison Hamilton who are Wendy’s children; Claire Roberts and Olivia Roberts who are Gary Jr.’s kids; and was looking forward to seeing his youngest son, Andrew welcome his first child into the world in September 2014. Her name will be Gwenevere. It wasn’t just the young grandchildren that Gary was proud of. He was very prideful that Samantha Roberts (Robbie’s daughter) and Brandy Wilbanks (Jerry’s daughter) have grown up to be strong and successful women as adults. Gary led his life the way that he wanted. He was a private man who did not outwardly show his emotions. Underneath his tough guy exterior, he was a loving person who believed his life only got better with the more family and friends that he added to his world. His children and grandchildren brought Gary a sense of success that made him feel his legacy in the world would be one of love, compassion; and family. He will be missed by many, but remembered by all with respect and admiration for a life well done. Gary was preceded in death by his parents, Robert and Nellie Roberts; uncle, Vernon Roberts; father-in-law, Keith Brown and mother-in-law, Mary Brown; brothers-inlaw, Scott Brown, Pat Thomas, Ben Trosper, Stan Warden; daughter, Jennifer Roberts; and his beloved dogs, Angel and Peanut. A celebration of life barbacue and potluck will take place at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, June 8, at Simpson Park in North Bend. The family encourages anyone who knew Gary to bring a side dish and come share memories of a life well lived. The family has set up the Gary W.

Nation and World Thai coup makers hold ex-PM BANGKOK (AP) — Ousted members of Thailand’s former government surrendered to the new military junta Friday, as soldiers forcefully dispersed hundreds of anti-coup activists who defied a ban on largescale gatherings to protest the army’s seizure of power. Troops detained at least two activists during the protest in downtown Bangkok, which descended into scuffles but ended without injury and marked one of the first open challenges to the military since Thursday’s coup. The junta, though, remained firmly in charge, summoning more than 100 top political figures — the entire ousted government, their associates and a handful of their opponents. It also banned those on its wanted list from leaving the country. Among the officials who showed up at an army compound in Bangkok were former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, sacked earlier this month for nepotism by the Constitutional Court, and her temporary replacement Niwattumrong

39 killed in campaign tent shelling BEIRUT (AP) — In the first attack to target a campaign event, a mortar shell slammed into a tent packed with supporters of President Bashar Assad, killing 39 people and wounding 205 others, Syrian state TV said Friday. The shelling underscored deep fears in government strongholds that rebels will escalate attacks in an attempt to disrupt the balloting. Assad is widely expected to win a third, seven-year mandate in the vote scheduled for June 3, but the West and opposition activists have criticized it as a farce since it is taking place despite a raging civil war.

Protesting Sikhs push into parliament ISLAMABAD (AP) — Dozens of baton-wielding Sikhs pushed past the front gate and entered the grounds

House passes curbs on NSA surveillance WASHINGTON (AP) — In an overwhelming vote, the House moved the U.S. closer to ending the National Security Agency’s bulk collection of Americans’ phone records Thursday, the most significant demonstration to date of leaker Edward Snowden’s impact on the debate over privacy versus security. But the final version of the legislation, “watered down” in the words of one supporter, also showed the limits of that impact. The bill was severely weakened to mollify U.S. intelligence agencies, which insisted that the surveillance programs that shocked many Americans are a critical bulwark against terror plots.

Obama taps Castro for Cabinet For All Your Plumbing

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a second-term Cabinet reshuffle, President Barack Obama tapped San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro on Friday to be the nation’s next housing secretary, giving a prominent national platform to one of the Democratic Party’s most celebrated up-and-comers. Joined by Castro and Vice President Joe Biden, Obama also announced he was nominating current Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan to run the White House budget office — an opening Obama created when he asked his former budget chief to take over the Health and Human Services Department last month.

“Just because you are of modest means does not mean that your aspirations or your opportunity ought to be limited, and it certainly means you can have the talent to succeed and achieve the American Dream,” Castro said as he accepted the nomination in the State Dining Room of the White House. The 39-year-old Castro was propelled into the national spotlight two years ago when Obama chose him to deliver the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention — a political baptism by fire not unlike the president’s own rise to prominence when Obama keynoted the 2004 conven-

tion. Friday’s announcement gives another major boost to Castro’s profile, just as Democrats are eyeing him as a potential vice presidential candidate in 2016. As a Democrat, Castro’s options for climbing the political ladder were severely constrained in Texas, where every statewide office is held by a Republican and Democrats haven’t won a statewide race in 20 years. In elevating Castro to a Cabinet-level post, Obama gives Castro perhaps his best chance to establish his credibility nationally as Democrats seek to shore up a bench of promising candidates for future races.

Continued from Page A1 Half of the fees would go to SCCF, a proposed nonprofit that would fund infrastructure and technology efforts in Coos, western Douglas and northern Curry counties school districts. Public outcry labeled SCCF as a method of funneling public money through a private organization. In response, the four enterprise zone sponsors formed the CEP work group to analyze the SCCF bylaws and implement open meetings and records rules. Those bylaws were changed 29 times before the three initial SCCF directors approved them Friday. The bylaws now provide for open meetings and records, and assign the responsibility of changing the bylaws and appointing and removing directors to the four members. Now, the SCCF board consists of Coos County commissioner John Sweet, North Bend city administrator Terence O’Connor, Coos Bay Mayor Crystal Shoji and Oregon International Port of Coos Bay commissioner Brianna Hanson. Shoji said the board has not yet scheduled its first meeting. The updated bylaws have been approved by three of the four enterprise zone sponsors so far; Coos County commissioners will vote on the matter June 3. Lansing, Whitty and Verger provided the new board of directors with several documents, one of which details what still needs to be done to get the foundation up and running. Lansing and Whitty would not comment on their decision to resign. Verger did not respond to a request for comment as of press time. “I’m not surprised,” said port CEO David Koch of the three resignations. “As a result of their volunteerism to help this community put this plan together, they’ve been berated by people that have mistrusted their intentions. I am disappointed that the situation has caused them to feel underappreciated for the work they have done.” Reporter Chelsea Davis can be reached at 541-269-1222, ext. 239, or by email at chelsea.davis@theworldlink.com.

Cally Smith practices speech exercises with Anne Goodwin, teacher of the deaf and hard of hearing with the South Coast Education Service District, on Jan. 21. Goodwin uses techniques that require deaf students to listen and see words in their mind’s eye before saying them because they are often better visual learners.

IMPLANTED Some see implants as an affront to deaf culture Continued from Page A1 “In cases where they’re born to hearingimpaired parents, the tendency is to not get cochlear implants,” Landsberg said. “If they’re born to hearing parents, they’re more anxious to get the implants.” Some think the child should make that decision. “(One Curry County child’s) parents wanted him to get the implants, but he didn’t want them,” Landsberg said. “What comes into play is ... there’s a lot of success if they do it before the age of language development.” Anne Goodwin, teacher of the deaf and hard-of-hearing at South Coast ESD, said cochlear implants don’t magically “fix” everything. She’s worked with Jaycee and Cally for years. “Children who are born deaf, when they first hear sound, they don’t know what it is,” she said. “So you need to have somebody working with parents to help guide them through that, like things we take for granted. We learn language incidentally, just by hearing it. With a lot of deaf and hard-of-hearing children, they have to be taught those things.” Jaycee had to wait six weeks after the surgery to turn on the implant, and when she could, doctors turned up the volume very slowly to ease her into it. “They turned it up louder and louder — and she started crying,” Cammy said. Videos of these touching moments have

circulated over the last several years, showing the emotional impact of deaf patients hearing a loved one speak for the first time. “It’s a really, really feel-good experience,” Landsberg said. “But one thing I always have to tell patients is it takes time for your brain to get used to hearing sounds. “You’re going to be overwhelmed. Everywhere you walk there’s going to be sound. It’s one thing to have the surgery; it’s another to have all the rehabilitation and work done after.” Cally was tested immediately, and the results were clear. She was implanted when she was 14 months old. Now, both are successful students. Jaycee said she doesn’t remember life before the implant. Cally wears hers as a point of pride: “It’s my bionic ear,” she said. According to the Oregon School for the Deaf, there were 114 children enrolled in the school in 2012-2013, 16 percent of whom had cochlear implants. Jaycee and Cally have gone in and out of homeschooling. Jaycee was homeschooled her fourth-grade year during a bout of meningitis and last year when she got Addison’s disease. For this year at least, Cally is homeschooled, but she’ll likely return to Coos Bay schools soon. Jaycee plays basketball and runs cross country and track. She also takes swim lessons, but has to remove the aid when she’s in the pool. Cally plays volleyball and basketball. “They haven’t let their hearing loss affect them,” Landsberg said.

States look to the past for execution methods NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The disarray surrounding lethal injection in the U.S. is beginning to steer states back toward methods of execution that many had long ago deemed less humane than the needle. Tennessee jumped out front this week with a law that could essentially bring back the electric chair. Elsewhere around the country, lawmakers have been talking about reviving the firing squad and the gas chamber, methods largely abandoned a generation ago. The reason: Lethal injection — the primary means of execution in all 32 states with capital punishment — is under fire as never before because of botched executions, drug shortages caused by a European-led boycott, and a flurry of lawsuits over the new chemicals that states are using instead. The Tennessee legislation signed into law by Republican Gov. Bill Haslam on Thursday would allow

the state to use electrocution against any current or future death row inmate if lethal injection drugs become unavailable. In truth, Tennessee never did abandon the electric chair; killers who committed their crimes before the state adopted lethal injection in 1999 have been given the choice of electrocution or the needle. But the new law could take that choice away from the inmates and make everyone on death row subject to the electric chair. Deborah Denno, a professor at Fordham Law School who has studied executions for more than two decades, called Tennessee’s law unprecedented. “No state has gone backward, to go back in time to a prior method of execution,” she said. “For over a century, they have all moved forward.” Some attorneys warned that changing the method of execution on inmates who

were originally subject to lethal injection would be unconstitutional. Other experts noted that the legal and political attacks on lethal injection as cruel and unusual have had the unintended effect of driving states toward methods that are considered even worse. Douglas Berman, a law professor at Ohio State University, said the new Tennessee law could be part of an effort to force death row inmates challenging lethal injection to back off. “It might be the design that, ‘Hey, if you fight against this hard enough and say we can’t use lethal injection, fine, we’ll strap your guy in the chair,”’ Berman said. The Supreme Court has never declared a method of execution unconstitutionally cruel and unusual. It upheld the firing squad in 1879, the electric chair in 1890 and lethal injection in 2008.

Pirates softball earns spot in playoffs

Crook captures state title in 3,000

THE WORLD Marshfield softball won its play-in game against La Salle Prep 2-1 Thursday to earn a spot in the 4A playoffs. The Pirates escaped the seventh inning with Falcon runners on second and third to get their ninth win in a row. “My heart’s still beating,” Marshfield head coach Brooke Toy said after the game. ”We just held out with some really good defense. Our bats weren’t too hot, but we held out so it’s awesome.” The Pirates jumped up to a 2-0 lead by the third inning and starting pitcher Mackenzie Johnson rode the lead for the final five innings. Khalani Hoyer led off the second with a walk and then an error on a Sidney Baarstad bunt put the Pirates up 1-0. The next inning, Katelyn Rossback made it to first on an error and stole second. Then an overthrow when she stole third allowed her come home. Singles from Rossback and Carli Clarkson were the only hits Marshfield managed all day.

Area tennis players are eliminated

EUGENE - Coquille’s boys had a lot to celebrate on the first day of the Class 3A state meet Thursday, with individual titles by Brandon Bowen and Tristan Dixon. The Red Devils’ lone girl was busy both days, placing in four individual events. And Bandon did well with its few kids, too. Bowen, the leader all season in Class 3A, dominated the event in his first time competing at state. He just missed the

THE WORLD The South Coast players who advanced to the Class 4A-3A-2A1A state tennis tournament all were eliminated from action Thursday and Friday in Corvallis. North Bend’s Keaten Baker won his initial singles match over Pedro DeSouza of Crook County, 6-1, 60, before falling in the quarterfinals to Matt Biggi of Valley Catholic, 6-1, 7-5. Baker was the only singles player who was in the main draw for either North Bend or Marshfield because Marshfield’s Katie Boesl was eliminated when she lost her pigtail match Thursday. The rest of the South Coast players were in doubles. North Bend’s Taylor Cuzzort and Hannah SchandelmeierLynch, who placed second at the tournament last year, lost in the quarterfinals this time. They beat Catlin Gabel’s Sarah Salvador and Jennifer Rubinstein in the first round, but lost to Oregon Episcopal’s Natalie Berger and Rachael Haugh in their next match. Marshfield’s Abby Clough and Sara Springael, who won a pigtail match Thursday to reach the main draw, were eliminated when they lost both their matches Friday. North Bend’s two boys doubles teams had the same fate, with sophomores James Jordan and Stewart Lyons and freshmen Jacob Gage and Brigham Baker both losing twice.

EUGENE — Marshfield’s Shaylen Crook began her final state track meet the way she ended the cross country state meet in the fall, with a smile on her face and the shell casing from the starter’s pistol in her hand. Crook ran away from the field in the middle of the race to capture the Class 4A title See the track photo in the 3,000 galleries online at at theworldlink.com/gallery meters Hayward Field on Friday, winning in 10 minutes, 12.27 seconds. She provided the biggest highlight of the day for the two Bay Area schools at Hayward Field,with most of the highlights for North Bend expected to come Saturday. The 3,000 was the first final on the track, and Crook dominated the race.

By the end, Crook finished 27 seconds ahead of runner-up Nevina DeLuca of Phoenix.

Bowen also placed fourth in the discus Friday, with a personal best throw of 145-4. While Bowen was winning the shot put, Dixon was clearing a succession of heights to capture the pole vault.

Sports “We talked about it last year — coming back and winning it this year, and she worked at it” Marty Stallard, Myrtle Point coach on javelin thrower Grace Hermann

Myrtle Point’s Grace Hermann throws the javelin Thursday during the state track meet at Hayward Field. Hermann won the Class 2A event.

2A Mitchell 4th in high jump From Page B1 “I knew I had a good chance of going to state (again),” she said. “I didn’t expect to win.” Myrtle Point coach Marty Stallard gave all the credit to his athlete. “We talked about it last year — coming back and winning it this year, and she worked at it,” Stallard said. Reedsport’s Mike Mitchell hoped to earn a second state title, but came up short in the high jump — his specialty. He gave himself a chance in the event when he stayed alive by clearing 6 feet, 2 inches on his third attempt. He got over the bar at 6-3 on his second try, but knocked it off with his lower legs. As it was, Mitchell was only able to place fourth in the event, which was won by Central Linn’s Oliver Meyr.

“I’m a little disappointed,” Mitchell said. “This year has been off. I haven’t been consistent.” Mitchell actually placed better in his other event, taking third in the long jump with a leap of 20-7.25 Thursday. “I am happy with that,” he said. “I’ll take it.” Mitchell hopes to improve his skills in summer meets this year. Reedsport also got two placers in the pole vault. Hayden Hinshaw, another defending state champion, was third, with teammate Tragen Smart eighth. “It’s my first year pole vaulting,” Smart said. “It’s pretty amazing just to get up here.” Hinshaw wasn’t able to compete most of this season, but he got over 12-6 Thursday. “For the second time vaulting this year, I did pretty well,” he said. Culver’s Corey Sledge won the event by clearing 14 feet, 6 inches.

Reedsport teammate Mike Mitchell placed third in the long jump with a leap of 207.25. That was off his best, but he didn’t mind. Reedsport’s girls erased a meet of frustration in one event, placing sixth in the 4x400 relay Friday night. “That was a lot better than I expected,” said Kaylynn Hixenbaugh, the anchor leg, who ran a great leg as the Braves won their heat of the event. “That’s probably the fastest I’ve run. “This is definitely the event that drives me — knowing that my team is counting on me.” Kezia Eunice, Cheyenne Lindberg and Bailey LaRouche made up the rest of the squad. Hixenbaugh earlier placed a disappointing eighth in the 400. Eunice, meanwhile, was seventh in the long jump Thursday and failed to advance to the final of the 200. “I didn’t jump OK,” she said after a best leap of 15-

Hermann was one of two placers for Myrtle Point’s girls. Teammate Nicole Seals was sixth in the shot put Friday and eighth in the discus Thursday. She probably was happier with the discus.

“All I wanted to do is make podium,” Seals said. As for the shot put? “I did horrible,” she said, vowing to do better next spring. “This summer I will hit the weight room a lot.

She came back to place fifth in the 200 and the 300-meter hurdles, the latter race hurt by its close proximity to the former — they are back-to-back events. “I could have done better if I had more time between the races,” she said. The relay team of Brittany Kreutzer, Jessica Martinez, Aumai Wills and Engdahl had one bad exchange and finished in 53.20, about a half-second behind its time from the district meet. Meanwhile, Wills placed fifth in the high hurdles. “I PR’d,” she said of her time of 17.51 seconds. “I’m happy about that.” The combination of events almost was enough to get Pacific a trophy. The Pirates finished in a tie for fifth, a point out of fourth place. Pacific’s boys, meanwhile, had two placers in the meet. Cole Kreutzer was fourth in the 400 and sixth in the 200. “Both of my races, I started slow,” he said. “I wish I had PR’d in the 400.” His frustrations were compounded by being disqualified from the triple jump for circumstances he said were beyond his control. He checked out of that event after warm-ups to run the 4x100 relay with the Pirates,and didn’t make it back to the event in time because he was held in the finish area after the relay until it was determined that Pacific hadn’t placed well enough to finish in the top

eight. Pacific’s other placer was Pio Figueroa, who barely made the finals in the 300 hurdles when another runner was disqualified, but then raced to a fifth-place finish in the event with a new best of 44.03. Powers has just two athletes who advanced to state, and both placed in each of their events. Jackson Stallard set a personal best in the pole vault Thursday, clearing 12 feet, 9 inches on his final attempt. That allowed him to place fourth in the event. He had the same mark as the runner-up, but more misses. “I wish I would have gotten 13 feet,” Stallard said. Immediately after the pole vault, he ran an awkward race in the high hurdles preliminaries, getting thrown off his stride when he hit the second barrier. But somehow, his time was just fast enough to advance to Friday’s final, when he had a much better race, finishing sixth. After battling a pulled quad muscle most of the year, he said he was just happy to participate as a freshman. “It was fun coming here,” Stallard said. Meanwhile, Elizabeth Standley placed sixth in the long jump with a leap of 15 feet, 1.5 inches. “I didn’t get a good jump in at all,” said Standley, a sophomore competing at state for the first time. “I’m happy I’m here. I just wish I would have done better.” The Condon/Wheeler girls and Adrian boys won the team races.

When Dixon cleared the bar, his first thought was one of relief. “Thank God,” he said. “I’m just very, very thankful.” He matched his personal best in the event and drew praise from his sister Kaitlyn, who had her own spot on the big stage Thursday, singing the national anthem before the running events started. “He did amazing,” Kaitlyn said. “I’m so glad I was here to see this.” Tristan had similar thoughts about his sister. “She sounded great,” he said. Meanwhile, Wilson was just getting started, and in a big way, too. Wilson, a freshman, uncorked a huge throw on her first attempt in the javelin, a personal best of 129 feet, 11 inches that broke the school record. Lakeview’s Delaney Hall followed Wilson immediately with a throw of 137-4 that won the event.

Coquille’s Tristan Dixon flies over the pole vault bar Thursday during the state track meet at Hayward Field. Dixon won the event. Wilson had a 1-inch improvement later, for a new record of 130-0. “That was cool,” she said. “I wasn’t expecting that. It was the adrenaline, I guess.” Wilson jumped 16-1.25 to take third in the long jump Thursday, and then finished fourth in the triple jump Friday with a leap of 34-1 that, like the long jump, was

not quite as good as a week earlier at the district meet. She followed that immediately by stepping up for the finals of the 100-meter hurdles, where she did set a personal best with a time of 17.00 seconds. That gave her medals for four different places and the chance to celebrate her long two days.

“I was surprised I did that good as a freshman,” she said. “I hope I can improve through the years.” She will work on her skills this summer in some heptathlons. While Wilson was the only Coquille girl, the boys had several others, including Eli Dill, who placed fourth in the 400 in a new best 53.11.

“That was pretty awesome,” he said. Coquille almost had another placer, but Zach Breitkreutz was passed by another thrower on the final attempt of the javelin and finished ninth. Bandon, meanwhile, had three placers among the girls. The best finish was by Hannah Smith, who had a big final leap of 34-8.75 in the triple jump to pass Wilson and another girl to take second. “I wish I could have jumped farther,” she said after missing her goal of the school record. But she was thrilled with her second-place medal. Meanwhile, Aida Santoro got medals for third and fifth in the 3,000 and 1,500, respectively. In the 3,000, he sat at the back of the lead pack until Creswell’s Olivia Powell and Cascade Christian’s Stephanie Croy took off in the middle of the race. Santoro then settled into third place the rest of the way. “My goal was to stay with the pack as long as I could,” Santoro said, adding that she was thrilled to place third. “That’s better than I thought I would do,” she said. “I was going for top-five.” Powell won the race in 10

minutes, 41.09 seconds. Santoro’s time was 11:11.47. Santoro was a lot closer to Powell in the 1,500, when she just missed breaking the 5minute barrier, finishing in 5:00.36 (Powell won in 4:51.96). “I’m excited,” she said. “I PR’d by eight seconds. My goal was to get at least 5:04.” Toni Hall, like Santoro a sophomore, tied for third in the long jump Thursday when she cleared her first several heights without a miss, including 5 feet. “I’m really happy,” said Hall. “I’m just excited that I progressed.” She placed fifth last spring, clearing 4-10. Burns freshman Catherine Clemens cleared 5-3 to win the event. Bandon only had one entry for boys, the 4x100 relay, and the Tigers placed eighth with a season-best mark of 45.37. “I’m so happy they got a medal,” Bandon coach Sharon Haga said of the quartet of Alex Winston, Logan Shea, Jacob Taylor and Mitchell Brown. The team champions were Nyssa’s boys and Valley Catholic’s girls. Coquille’s boys placed eighth while the Bandon and Coquille girls finished in the top 15.

Colts owner charged with 2 misdemeanors NOBLESVILLE, Ind. (AP) — Prosecutors charged Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay with two misdemeanor counts Friday stemming from his intoxicated driving arrest near his home in March. Hamilton County prosecutors said Irsay was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated and operating a vehicle with a schedule I or II controlled substance or its metabolite in the body, which carry maximum penalties of 60 days in jail and $500 fines for each count. A probable cause affidavit said Irsay was driving under the influence of oxycodone and/or hydrocodone, both powerful painkillers. Irsay was arrested near his home at about 3 a.m. on March 16 with $29,000 in cash and bottles of prescription drugs in his vehicle. Police said Irsay denied being

drunk and told an officer he had taken several prescription medications during the day. A police report said the 54-year-old billionaire was so disoriented that officers made him sit on the hood of a patrol car to keep him from falling, and that he had trouble reciting the alphabet. Police had filed four preliminary felony counts of possession of a controlled substance, charges that each carried possible sentences of six months to three years in prison. Prosecutors took weeks before deciding to file the misdemeanor charges instead. The Indianapolis law office representing Irsay, Voyles, Zahn & Paul, released a statement thanking the prosecutor’s office for its professionalism in handing the investigation and “for devoting the necessary care

and attention to determine the facts in this matter did not warrant the filing of felony charges relative to Mr. Irsay’s prescription medications.” Colts spokesman Avis Roper declined immediate comment.

We are reviewing the matter and will take appropriate action in accordance with the policy,” The Associated Press file photo he said in an email.

Community Sports and Golf Duke wins women’s title; Vaughn is 38th

PGA rookie takes lead at Colonial FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — PGA Tour rookie Brice Garnett grew up in a small Missouri town where his home course is a nine-hole layout. Garnett has gone from Daviess County Country Club and then Missouri Western State to leading at Hogan’s Alley after two rounds at Colonial. After starting with an eagle, Garnett shot a 4-under 66 on Friday and moved to 7-under 133. He had a one-stroke lead over long-putting Chris Stroud (64) and Robert Streb (68). “I’m just keeping my head down and trying to make as many birdies as possible,” Garnett said. “I’m going to try to embrace it this weekend and have fun, and we’ll see where we stand come Sunday.” Adam Scott, playing as No. 1 in the world for the first time, had birdies on three of his last seven holes for a 68 to get to 1 under. He has made the cut in his last 34 PGA Tour events, the longest active streak. Matt Kuchar, ranked No. 4 in the world, had a chance to move to the top with a victory. But he missed the cut by a stroke at 2-over 142 after a 70. The 30-year-old Garnett is from Gallatin, Missouri, a town of about 1,800 people. He has only one top-10 finish in his 18 previous starts on the PGA Tour, and has never won on the

Web.com Tour. This is the first time he has even been in the top 10 after the second or third round on the PGA Tour. “I think each and every week the rookies feel more comfortable. I know I have,” Garnett said. ‘You can’t get down on yourself being a rookie. ... It’s been fun, and I’m learning each and every day.” First-round leader Dustin Johnson (70) dropped into a seven-way tie for fourth at 5 under. That group also included Texas resident Jimmy Walker (68), a three-time winner this season and No. 1 in the FedEx Cup standings. Walker had a strange occurrence when his tee shot at the 17th hole appeared to nick a bird in flight — though the bird kept flying before Walker made another par. “We saw (the ball) fly the whole way and then it kind of disappeared over the trees,” said Walker, the only player still without a bogey this week. “I didn’t see it.” Stroud made five putts from over 20 feet, all coming in his last 12 holes. His made putts in the round combined for just under 221 feet, the most on the PGA Tour since Brent Geiberger covered 240 feet during the first round at Booz Allen in 2006. And Stroud did that using a new putter he picked up this week.

TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Duke held off Southern California by two strokes Friday for its sixth NCAA women’s golf title, and the Trojans’ Doris Chen took the individual championship. Chen closed with a 3under 67 for a two-stroke victory over Duke’s Celine Boutier. Chen finished at 6under 274. Boutier, tied with Chen for the third-round lead, shot 69. Reedsport graduate Monica Vaughn shot 70 for Arizona State on Friday to finish at 10-over par for the four days. She finished 38th to conclude her freshman season with the Sun Devils. Duke, six strokes ahead of Southern California entering the final round, had a 6under 274 total at Tulsa Country Club to finish at 10over 1,130. The Trojans, the winner last year, shot 10under 270.

Baseball RECAP

Fielder may be out for season DETROIT (AP) — Prince Fielder was placed on the disabled list Friday, days before he is scheduled to have season-ending neck surgery. The move by the Texas Rangers came a day after the team said Fielder would have cervical fusion surgery Tuesday for the herniated disk in his neck. General manager Jon Daniels said he expected a second opinion to confirm the initial recommendation for the operation. It is the first time the durable first baseman has been on the DL in his career. Before a nerve root block injection to treat his neck last Saturday, Fielder’s 547 consecutive games played was the longest active streak in the majors. Fielder, who turned 30 earlier this month, missed only one game the previous five seasons and hadn’t missed a game since Sept. 14, 2010. Fielder went on the 15-day DL, retroactive to May 17. Infielder Donnie Murphy was recalled from an injury rehab assignment and activated for the game against the Tigers. Mitch Moreland was set to start at first base, where he played last year before the trade for Fielder pushed him toward the designated hitter role. “A big blow for us as a team, losing him in the middle of the lineup,” Moreland said. “But we’ve been dealing with adversity all year.” Moreland hit 23 home runs last season. He was hitting .275 entering Friday night’s game at Detroit. “Prince is on the DL. We don’t have him,” manager Ron Washington said. “And there’s nobody who can replace him, so let Mitch be Mitch Moreland Moreland. Don’t even mention Mitch Moreland in the same breath with a Prince Fielder.” Murphy was placed on the disabled list May 8 with a neck strain. The Rangers have a majors-high 13 players on the disabled list. They have had 17 DL placements this season, also the most in the majors. Fielder hit .247 with three home runs and 16 RBIs in 42 games in his first season with the Rangers. The only time he has played fewer games was when he appeared in 39 as a rookie in 2005 with Milwaukee. The Tigers, meanwhile, sent minor league infielder Francisco Martinez outright to Double-A Erie, a move that cleared room on the 40man roster for right-hander Corey Knebel. Knebel’s contract was purchased by the Tigers from Triple-A Toledo.

Red Sox painting sold for $22.6M NEW YORK (AP) — A Norman Rockwell painting of Boston Red Sox players has sold to a private buyer for $22.6 million. “The Rookie (Red Sox Locker Room)” led the bidding Thursday at Christie’s auction of American art in New York. “The Rookie” shows Hall of Famer Ted Williams and other seasoned veterans as an awkward newcomer arrives for spring training. The painting appeared on the cover of the Saturday Evening Post in 1957. An anonymous owner acquired it in 1986. It remained in the same private collection since. It was exhibited this month at Fenway Park and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. It was previously shown at the museum in 2005 and 2008 following Red Sox World Series victories. Christie’s sold 115 pieces, netting $64 million.

From Page B1 Harbor. Johnson only allowed the one run and struck out four in the complete game. “The girls seemed cool, calm and collected,” Toy said. “They looked like they knew what they were doing. It was a different team than I had seen all year, they really were focused on winning.” Marshfield will play at Gladstone on Wednesday to start its run in the 4A playoffs. Coquille 13, Rogue River 3: The Red Devils took out Rogue River on Friday. The win puts them at 16-7 overall.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw throws during the first inning against the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday.

Kershaw impressive in win BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PHILADELPHIA — Clayton Kershaw limited Philadelphia to two hits in six innings, Carl Crawford hit a solo homer and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Phillies 2-0 on Friday night. Kershaw (3-1) bounced back from his roughest outing in two years with an excellent performance, striking out nine. The two-time Cy Young Award winner allowed seven runs in 1 2-3 innings — the second-shortest outing of his career — in an 18-7 loss to Arizona last Saturday. Roberto Hernandez (2-2) allowed two runs and seven hits in 6 1-3 innings in his first start since May 9. Hernandez pitched out of the bullpen the past two NL weeks because the Recap Phillies didn’t need a fifth starter. The Dodgers have won three of four. The Phillies have lost three in a row, tying their season low of five games under .500. Four relievers combined to finish off the three-hitter. Brian Wilson had a perfect eighth and Kenley Jansen closed it out for his 14th save in 15 tries. Brewers 9, Marlins 5: Mark Reynolds hit a pair of two-run homers and Milwaukee won a record-setting slugfest at Marlins Park. Giancarlo Stanton and Garrett Jones hit two solo homers apiece for Miami, and Khris Davis homered for Milwaukee. The teams combined for seven homers, the most since the pitcher-friendly ballpark opened in 2012. Reynolds homered in the fourth and again in the fifth, increasing his season total to 11. It was his 20th career multihomer game. Milwaukee didn’t need slugger Ryan Braun, who sat out after a flare-up of

the oblique strain that sent him to the disabled list earlier this season. Miami lost despite hitting a seasonhigh four home runs. Stanton’s two tape-measure homers increased his season total to 14, most in the NL, and his 47 RBIs lead the majors. It was his 12th career multihomer game, tying Hanley Ramirez’s franchise record. Marco Estrada (4-2) didn’t pitch from the stretch until there were two out in the seventh, because all four of Miami’s baserunners to that point hit home runs. He gave up five runs and departed after 6 2-3 innings. Tom Koehler (4-4) went five innings and gave up seven innings, including both homers by Reynolds. Reds 5, Cardinals 3: Todd Frazier hit a three-run homer off Shelby Miller, Devin Mesoraco added a solo shot and Cincinnati beat St. Louis to tighten the top of the NL Central. The Reds moved within three games of the second-place Cardinals, who have won seven of their last nine games while staying right behind divisionleading Milwaukee. Miller (6-3) had won six straight decisions, the best such streak of his career. He allowed five runs in five innings, including Frazier’s ninth homer in the third inning. Pirates 4, Nationals 3: Charlie Morton worked into the sixth inning to snap a lengthy losing streak and Pittsburgh beat Washington. Morton (1-6) allowed one run on five hits in 5 2-3 workmanlike innings for his first victory since September. Pedro Alvarez hit his ninth home run of the season after being dropped from fourth to sixth in the lineup. Ike Davis, who replaced Alvarez as the cleanup hitter, went 2 for 4 with two runs scored. Jason Grilli picked up his first save since April 14 in his return from the disabled list.

The Pirates have won three straight and four of five. Braves 3, Rockies 2:Gerald Laird drove in two runs with two hits, including a tiebreaking single in the eighth, and Atlanta beat Colorado after the Rockies lost third baseman Nolan Arenado to a broken finger. Arenado left the game in the second inning after fracturing his left middle finger on a head-first slide into second base. Michael Cuddyer hit a home run for Colorado. Padres 11, Cubs 1:Yonder Alonso and Yasmani Grandal homered, and Chase Headley drove in three runs as San Diego snapped a four-game skid. The Padres set a season-high in runs and had 12 hits. Everyone but Will Venable had at least one hit among the starting position players. Tim Stauffer (2-0) was the beneficiary. Making his first start since May 14, 2012 at Washington, Stauffer pitched five shutout innings and gave up two hits. He struck out five, with a walk and hit batter, and earned his win as a starter win since Sept. 16, 2011, against Arizona.

INTERLEAGUE Giants 6, Twins 2: Pablo Sandoval and Brandon Hicks homered to back a wild Tim Lincecum. Lincecum (4-3) struck out four and walked six in six innings. He allowed five hits and also had two wild pitches, escaping trouble in nearly every inning. Joe Mauer and Chris Parmelee drove in Minnesota’s only runs in the third. Sandoval hit a three-run shot in the first, Hicks hit his eighth homer off Kyle Gibson (4-4) in the fourth and drove in another run in the seventh. Gibson gave up five runs and five hits in five innings, working quickly and in command for all but the two homers.

Blue Jays continue their winning ways BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TORONTO — Liam Hendriks won his season debut, Steve Tolleson hit a two-run home run and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Oakland Athletics 3-2 on Friday night for their ninth victory in 11 games. Brandon Moss homered for the seventh time in 18 games for the Athletics, who lost their second straight following a five-game winning streak. Oakland’s loss was just its third in AL the past games Recap 14 overall.

Promoted from Triple-A to face the Athletics, who came in with the best record in the majors, Hendriks (1-0) allowed one run and three hits in 5 2-3 innings. The right-hander walked three and struck out three. Tolleson hit Toronto’s ML-leading 68th home run when he connected off Scott Kazmir (5-2) in the second. Mariners 6, Astros 1: Felix Hernandez struck out nine over eight strong innings for his third straight victory, Willie Bloomquist hit his first home run since 2011 for Seattle. Hernandez (6-1) allowed only five hits and continued a strong last two weeks on the mound. After going more than a month between victories, Hernandez has redis-

covered his form. He has struck out 21 and walked just two over his last three starts. Bloomquist drove in three runs, but the highlight was his two-run homer just inside the left-field foul pole in the sixth off Rudy Owens, who was making his major league debut. It was his first long ball since Aug. 10, 2011, when Bloomquist was playing for Arizona, a span of 626 at-bats. Tigers 7, Rangers 2: Anibal Sanchez gave Detroit a much-needed quality start, and the Tigers snapped their four-game losing streak with victory over Texas. Austin Jackson and Andrew Romine homered for Detroit, and Ian Kinsler doubled three times against his former team. Sanchez (2-2) allowed two runs and five hits over seven innings. Rays 1, Red Sox 0: Pinch-hitter Cole Figueroa had an RBI double in the bottom of the ninth inning to lead Tampa Bay past Boston. Desmond Jennings drew a one-out walk in the ninth off Andrew Miller (1-3). Burke Badenhop entered and, after Jennings stole second, Figueroa drove in the winning run on a drive to rightcenter. Orioles 8, Indians 4: Chris Davis homered and had four RBIs, Adam Jones had three hits and scored three runs and Baltimore beat Cleveland to snap the Indians’ four-game winning streak.

Reedsport’s baseball team is in the state playoffs for the first time in seven years after beating Oakland 11-1 in the Class 2A-1A District 4 playoffs Thursday. The Braves, who finished second in the regular season, followed the win over Oakland with an 8-0 loss to regularseason champion Umpqua Valley Christian. That means the Braves enter the playoffs as the No. 2 seed, with a road game next Wednesday. They will learn their foe for the first round this weekend, but that was the least of coach Todd Harrington’s concerns Thursday night. “We’re more than excited,” he said. “The kids are just stoked right now.” Griffin Kaufmann pitched a three-hitter in the win over Oakland and Reedsport broke open a 2-1 game with three runs in the fourth inning and six more in the sixth. Haden Sams had a two-run double in the big inning, while Tyler Tresch went 3-for-4 with two RBIs. Marquece Williams went 2-for-3 with an RBI and two runs scored. Kaufmann had two hits and two runs in addition to his work on the mound, which included 11 strikeouts and no walks. Reedsport’s chances to upset UVC were undone by sloppy defense while Harrington gave three of the lesser-used pitchers a chance to throw on the big stage — Jordan Ragan, Wayde Doane and Tresch. did well,” “They Harrington said. “The five errors behind them didn’t help at all.” The Monarchs, meanwhile, used ace Jake Forrester, who allowed just two hits — singles by Ragan and Joe Hixenbaugh. Forrester struck out nine batters, half as many as the last time he pitched against the Braves. Hixenbaugh reached base three times, including getting to third with just one out in the first inning, but the Braves weren’t able to push him across the plate. Forrester and Cooper Tharp each had two hits, including a double, for UVC. Harrington said he was particularly excited to reach the playoffs to give his younger kids that experience. The Braves have just three seniors and return all their top pitchers next year.

Glide sweeps Bandon

The Associated Press

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Steve Tolleson takes to the air as he turns a double play after forcing out Oakland Athletics’ Nick Punto during the seventh inning. Nelson Cruz hit his 15th homer and Nick Markakis had four hits for the Orioles, who have 38 runs and 62 hits in their last five games. White Sox 6, Yankees 5: Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer off David Robertson in the ninth inning, and the Chicago White Sox beat the New York Yankees 6-5 on Friday night. Alexei Ramirez also went deep, and Chicago came away with the win after wiping out an early three-run deficit and then rallying again. Angels 6, Royals 1: Mike Trout homered and threw out

a runner at third base, Chris Iannetta also went deep, and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Kansas City Royals 6-1 Friday night. C.J. Wilson (6-3) allowed a run and four hits in 6 1-3 innings, striking out three and walking four. Wilson also hit two batters, including leadoff man Nori Aoki with his 105th and final pitch. Aoki had two singles and a double. The Angels won for the 11th time in 14 games and are a season-best seven games over .500. Danny Duffy (2-4) gave up five runs and nine hits over six innings.

Bandon season ended on a sour note Friday, losing both games of its doubleheader to Glide to miss the 3A playoffs. The Tigers lost 10-0 in the first game and 5-2 in the second. Coming into Friday, Bandon needed to sweep the Wildcats to win the Sunset Conference and make the playoffs. In the first game, Bandon was no-hit by Jacob Fricke and six Wildcat runs in the fifth and sixth stuck the fork in the Tigers’ season. The second game, Bandon’s bats improved with three hits. Quentin Coomer contributed a two-run single in the fifth. “Much better game all around,” first year Bandon head coach Jay Ferrell said. The losses signal the end of the career for eight Bandon seniors. The Tigers went 3-3 in league and lost five of it last six games. The seniors on the team made it to the state final their freshman year and the semifinals last year, but aren’t hanging their heads about this year. “It’s hard to not go to the playoffs this year, but we played well,” Bandon starting pitcher Robert Martino said. “We put in a lot of hard work.”

Sterling turns over control of Clippers to wife

Ganassi finds speed, stages Carb Day rally

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Donald Sterling is turning his ownership stake in the Los Angeles Clippers over to his estranged wife, and she is in talks with the NBA to sell the team, a person with knowledge of the negotiations told The Associated Press on Friday. The individual, who wasn’t authorized to speak publicly about the deal, said the couple reached the agreement after weeks of discussion. “Donald Sterling is out, and there will be new owners,” the individual told the AP. Neither Shelly Sterling nor her attorney had any comment Friday. They have been in talks with NBA lawyers for the last couple weeks. “She wants to be able to say, ‘I’m selling the team, not the NBA is selling the team,’ and have meaningful control over that transaction,” the individual told the AP. Donald Sterling was banned for life and fined $2.5 million by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver after the release of a recording last month in which Sterling made racist remarks involving blacks, which comprise the majority of players in the league. Sterling told female friend V. Stiviano not to bring blacks to Clippers games during a recorded conversation. Sterling specifically

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Scott Dixon insists that Ganassi Racing wasn’t trying to bamboozle anybody. After struggling last week and failing to put a car in the fast nine for qualifying, the team led by defending Indy 500 winner Tony Kanaan staged a rally on Carb Day. Kanaan was left atop the leaderboard Friday with a lap of 227.838 mph, while Dixon was next-fastest at 227.773 mph. “We definitely didn’t do it on purpose,” said Dixon, who will start in the middle of the fourth row Sunday. “We would like to roll out straightaway and be quick. I think we are normally.” Kanaan will start on the inside of the sixth row as he attempts to become the first back-to-back winner since Helio Castroneves in 2003. Teammate Charlie Kimball will start in the ninth row. “We feel good about it,” Kanaan said. “We worked pretty hard together to make up for our Saturday qualifying. We have great people back in the engineering office at Target Chip Ganassi Racing, and it really showed a little bit after qualifying and today.” The turnaround by the Ganassi stable brought back memories of 2012, when the team struggled throughout the month of May. But by the time Carb Day rolled around, Dario Franchitti had posted the fastest lap of the day, and Dixon was close behind in second. That was how they would finish on Sunday. Franchitti went on to win his third Indy 500, and Takuma Sato’s lastlap spin into the Turn 1 wall allowed Dixon to finish second. Townsend Bell, three-time winner Helio Castroneves and rookie Mikhail Aleshin joined Kanaan and Dixon among the five fastest laps Friday. Andretti Autosport teammates Ryan Hunter-Reay and Marco Andretti were next on the speed chart, while Juan

mentioned Magic Johnson, and then criticized the NBA Hall of Famer again as a poor role model during a TV interview. Earlier this week, the NBA charged Sterling with damaging the league and its teams with his comments, and said he has engaged in other conduct that has impaired its relationship with fans and merchandising partners. Sterling has until next Tuesday to respond to the charge. He has the right to appear at a New York hearing on June 3 in front of the other owners and make a presentation before the league’s board of governors votes on terminating his ownership. He is entitled to a lawyer at the hearing, but strict courtroom rules of evidence would not apply. It will take three-quarters of the owners to terminate Sterling’s ownership, and the league says also that of Shelly Sterling. “She has no plans to sue the NBA,” the individual told the AP. “She’s trying to make nice.” Minnesota Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor, the board chairman, will preside over the June 3 hearing. If threefourths of the other 29 owners vote to sustain the charge, Sterling will be forced to sell the team he has owned since 1981. Silver has said he is confident he has the 23 votes that are necessary.

Thunder’s Ibaka may be available against Spurs OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The San Antonio Spurs never believed Serge Ibaka was out for the Western Conference finals, even after the Thunder said they expected him to miss the rest of the playoffs with a calf injury. Looks like the Spurs might have been on to something. The Thunder said Friday that their defensive standout now is day-to-day after his strained left calf showed improved movement and stability and a significant decrease in swelling. The Thunder have missed Ibaka badly as San Antonio has raced to a 2-0 lead in the series, and his possible return gives the Thunder hope as they prepare for Game 3 on Sunday in Oklahoma City. “His progress in the last several days has been surprising,” Thunder general manager Sam Presti said. “I don’t think any of us thought we’d be standing here talking about this. We’re grateful that we are.” Well, maybe no one with the Thunder expected it. The Spurs certainly did. “We knew he would be

back, and that’s good,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “Nobody would wish that on anybody to miss a playoff. We’ve had guys miss playoffs before. It’s obviously a downer. If he gets back in — and I’m sure he will, as I’ve said from the beginning — I think it’s great.” Ibaka was injured in Game 6 against the Clippers. Presti did not say if Ibaka would be available for Game 3, Ibaka just that he could not be ruled out. Presti said he felt it best to be forthcoming with the change in the situation. “It would be convenient to not provide the information, and if he were ever healthy enough to play in a game, to release that an hour before the game,” he said. “But in this case, we don’t think that was the way to handle it, because previously, we had deemed him out. And we can’t deem him out.”

George, Oden may be back in East final MIAMI (AP) — Here’s no surprise: The Miami Heat are expecting to see Indiana’s Paul George play on Saturday night. Here’s a surprise: Greg Oden might be out there as well. Whether George gets cleared to return from his concussion is no longer the only lineup question that awaits the Pacers and Heat when the knotted-up Eastern Conference finals resume in Miami. Oden is under consideration for some minutes after showing Heat coaches this week that weeks of problematic back issues may finally be over. “It’s been a rough two days,” said George, who was concussed in Game 2 on Tuesday night. For Oden, it’s been a rough five years. His last playoff appearance was on April 30, 2009, but his work in recent

days has apparently gotten Heat coach Erik Spoelstra wondering if the time is right to work Oden — whose career was derailed by knee injuries — into the rotation of defenders charged with making life miserable for Indiana center Roy Hibbert. “If coach needs me, I’m ready to play,” Oden said. “I’m definitely ready whenever he needs me.” The series is tied at a game apiece, with Miami grabbing the home-court edge away by rallying for a 87-83 win at Indianapolis in Game 2. The teams have been off since, which figures to be a blessing of sorts for the Pacers. Miami hasn’t even considered the possibility that George won’t play in Game 3. “Why wouldn’t he?” Heat star LeBron James asked. Still, it’s fair to wonder how the George situation will affect Indiana as it heads into Miami.

The Associated Press

Kurt Busch prepares to drive on the final day of practice for the Indianapolis 500 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis on Friday. The 98th running of the Indianapolis 500 is Sunday.

Busch wants workouts to fuel run at ‘Double’ INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Kurt Busch craned his neck toward a monitor and studied the Indianapolis 500 practice results. He didn’t seem happy with his final practice speed, roughly 3 mph off the pace and not good enough in the Andretti Autosport backup he was forced into after wrecking his own, faster car earlier this week. Busch seemed subdued for the first time this month at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and sounded Friday as if he was trying to lessen the hype that has surrounded his bid at the fabled Double, the Indy 500 followed by NASCAR’s Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday night. The harsh reality: Busch was 15th in his final practice on Indy’s 2.5mile oval, and talked not of winning or contending for a 500 victory, simply “about giving it my best.” “I give myself a B-minus right now,” Busch said. “I still have to work through traffic and to pass cars and let others feel confident around me. I need the first half the race to do such. Can we win? We have to put ourselves in position to win. We can’t ask for it.” Busch starts 12th here on Sunday and has posted the type of practice speeds that should at least have him in the mix for a top-10 run. He’s certainly ready physically for Sunday’s grueling affair. The 35-year-old Busch is in the best shape of his career, trying to steel his body for the cramps, knots, aches and fatigue that are sure to afflict him in his attempt to complete 1,100 miles in two of motorsports’ most prestigious races. For weeks, he has kicked, stretched and wormed his way through workouts more suitable for basic training. Busch rattled off heart rate numbers and sleep scores like a physician. And his race weekend meals are meticulously planned down to each beet root smoothie and beef jerky snack. He is as much a fitness freak these days as he is a driver, prepping for his attempt at The Double with the zeal of a marathon runner, staying true to strict training regimens and diets he believed will boost his stamina and focus. “This can hit me hard,” Busch said. “I can’t let being mentally or physically weak be the reason I don’t finish.” His sleep scores, steps, heart rate and perspiration levels are among the details logged on the Basis health tracker on his wrist. Busch worked several weeks with a martial arts guru, pumping up his upper-body strength, and toughening the rest of his 5-foot-11, 150-pound frame to withstand the physical rigors of the racing doubleheader. He’ll need all the help he

can get. Busch will be the fourth driver to attempt The Double and the first since Robby Gordon in 2004. Only Tony Stewart has completed both races, in 2001. Stewart’s first attempt in 1999 wrecked him physically as he gutted his way to a ninth-place finish at Indy and fourth in the 600. He fought sickness for the last hour of the race. His legs gave out as he climbed out of his Pontiac and he sank to the ground. He sat next to his car for several minutes with a wet towel wrapped around his head, occasionally drinking fluid. He was given oxygen, and then put on a stretcher and taken to the track hospital. He refused intravenous fluids, drinking water and Gatorade instead. “I was so worried about being dehydrated, I just drank and drank and drank,” Stewart said. “I didn’t have the urge of hunger. My stomach was full of water the whole day. I didn’t have the nutrients I needed to do what I needed to do.” Gordon, who made five attempts at The Double, said it was natural to feel worn down toward the end of the 600. “I hope he’s prepared for the internal muscles that it’s going to take,” Gordon said of Busch. “Those stomach muscles, I’m telling you, I had some of the gnarliest cramps in my stomach. I know Tony had them in his legs. He’s got to hydrate himself.” Busch will have a doctor and nurse aboard his raceday plane to give him fluids and vitamins as he flies from Indianapolis to North Carolina. He made the switch to a low-carb diet high in vegetable consumption, and he gobbles raisins to boost his potassium. His scheduled Sunday morning breakfast: Eggs, bacon, whole grain toast, water, coffee and 16 ounces of beet root juice. On the flight, Busch will try to eat oatmeal with raisins, a banana, beef jerky, a small cup of beet root juice, and sugar water with electrolytes infused with oxygen. Busch appears to be in peak condition. According to his Basis sleep tracker, he averages 7-8 hours of consolidated, dense sleep. His resting and racing heart rates have dropped through the season, a sign his workouts have paid off. “One of the things we’re really taking away is the level of exertion he’s experiencing inside this metal box,” said Marco Della Torre, vice president of science at Basis. “His heart rate response to big events during races has been muted. He’s improving in terms of his physiological reaction. We’re not seeing any red flags because he’s preparing so well.”

Pablo Montoya was ninthquickest. Kurt Busch stepped into Andretti’s backup car and climbed to 15th on the chart. Busch wrecked his primary car in practice on Monday, forcing his team to convert a car that Andretti had planned to use at Detroit from a roadcourse setup to an oval setup. “Just had to get back on my horse,” said Busch, who will attempt to run the Indy 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte on Sunday. “As the NASCAR guys always say, ‘Got to thank my crew,’ but honestly, this is a thank-thecrew moment from Andretti Autosport.” On a busy Carb Day at Indianapolis, here are more things that happened: Blocking rules: An unofficial poll of drivers indicated very few want to be the leader in the closing laps of Sunday’s race. But Dixon and Kanaan believe murky rules mean the leader could potentially block attempts at a pass for the win without risking a penalty from race control. “We haven’t gotten clarification on that. You can defend now,” Dixon said. If blocking occurs, Kanaan hopes it is fair. “I don’t think it’s fair enough sometimes to be the leader that he’ll be exposed and he’s going to lose the race because he was in the lead. It does not make any sense,” Kanaan said. “There is a certain amount of defending that should be allowed.” Pit challenge: Scott Dixon and his Ganassi team won the annual pit crew competition, beating Sage Karam in the finals. The No. 9 crew serviced Dixon’s car in a record 11.7 seconds to give the organization yet another win in the Carb Day staple. “They have been amazing all year,” Dixon said of his crew. Karam competed in an entry that is jointly fielded by Ganassi Racing and Dreyer & Reinbold Kingdom Racing, leaving Ganassi to joke, “It was going to be hard for me to lose it this year.”

Harvick seeking 3rd 600 title in 4 years CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Happy Harvick has lived up to his nickname this season, and hopes the good times with new team Stewart-Haas Racing roll on at Charlotte. Kevin Harvick heads into the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday night coming off a win and three top-10s in the last four races. He was in position to win last week’s All-Star race until a slow final pit stop caused him to finish second at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Now he goes into the Coca-Cola 600 looking for his third win in four years at NASCAR’s longest race of the season. Harvick won the 600-miler in 2011 and 2013, and feels he’s got another shot with his new No. 4 Chevrolet. “The first minute that I was in that car, I haven’t quit smiling,” Harvick said. “It’s been so refreshing and so much fun to be part of that every day.” Harvick, who won 23 races in 13 seasons driving for Richard Childress Racing, said there’s something different and special about his new Rodney Childers-led crew. He praised StewartHaas, too. “The bottom line is the organization from a whole has given us every resource that we have asked for,” Harvick said. “You never talk about money. It’s just what do you need and how do we get it for you.” Harvick broke through early to dominate at Phoenix for his first win with his new team, then went through some growing pains with four finishes of 36th or worse in his next five events. Things turned around at Darlington last month when Harvick outran Hendrick Motorsports stars Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Jimmie

Johnson for the victory, and he hasn’t slowed down since. Harvick credits much of the success to Childers, recruited by Stewart-Haas after two years as a crew chief at Michael Waltrip Racing. Childers and Harvick have connected over their desire to win, not just on race day, but during every practice session, tire test or pit stop. Things to watch during Sunday’s race: Johnson’s season: It’s been a long, dry season for defending Sprint Cup champion Jimmie Johnson, who’s been winless this season through 11 races to match his longest drought, at the start of the 2003 season. But Johnson showed some signs he’s ready to break back on top, collecting his first pole of the season for Sunday’s race. Johnson has had success at Charlotte Motor Speedway with a recordtying six previous wins including three in the CocaCola 600. “If I win, then I’m winning too much. If I’m not winning, then it’s ‘Why aren’t you winning?’ So I can’t do it right either way. I learned a long time ago to not pay attention to the outside voices and influences and just worry about my race team,” he said. Super Dale Jr.: Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be running with Superman on his No. 88 machine as part of a multiyear sponsorship deal Hendrick between Motorsports and DC Comics. Earnhardt was asked what super power he’d most like to “Super-human have. strength would be the best one to have, I think. Being able to pick stuff up and throw it across the yard would be fun. You can impress your friends and show off for the ladies,” he said.

Donovan left off roster for World Cup STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann says he dropped Landon Donovan from the World Cup roster because other forwards in the player pool surpassed him in the months before the American team gathered for its pre-tournament training camp. The 32-year-old Donovan, the American record holder with 57 international goals and second with 156 appearances, was trying to make his fourth World Cup roster. Klinsmann was hired in July 2011. He maintained the new deal didn’t make him think more toward the future when making his picks.

Sports 4A Matthews 2nd in long jump From Page B1 Blumm finished third and Mans, a freshman, dropped back to sixth. Along the way, Crook didn’t expend any extra energy, with the final for the 1,500 meters scheduled for Saturday. “Today, I was just going to go for the win,” she said. “I didn’t need a PR. I PR’d anyway and it felt great.” While she was a big favorite in the 3,000, Crook will be the underdog to Charlie Davidson of Scappoose in the 1,500. “I really want to surprise myself tomorrow,” Crook said. While Crook was cruising on the track, three other South Coast students were placing in the top six in the pole vault, though two of them hoped to place better. Justin Petz of La Pine won the event by clearing 15 feet. North Bend’s Luke Lucero was third, with Marshfield’s Hunter Drops fourth and Alex Backman of North Bend sixth. Lucero cleared 14 feet on his final attempt, while Drops, the Far West League champion, failed at that height. Backman, who was the runner-up at the league meet, couldn’t get over the bar at 136. The three said tricky swirling winds made conditions tough. “The weather didn’t cooperate,” Lucero said. “It was a lot better last year,” added Drops, as Backman nodded nearby. Both Drops and Backman had an attempt where the wind screwed up their sprint down the runway badly enough that that couldn’t even plant the pole and try the jump — it happened to Backman on his final attempt at 13-6. “It just got to my head a little bit,” he said. The North Bend senior had cleared 14 feet earlier this year, while Drops had cleared 14-9. Lucero had a new personal best Friday. While they hoped to place

North Bend’s Drew Matthews sends sand flying as he lands in the long jump pit Friday during the state track meet at Hayward Field. better, the three boys said they were proud the Bay Area produced three high placers in the event. “I’m still a sophomore,” Drops said. “I still have two more years.” He and Lucero also still have another event Saturday — the pole vault for Drops and the 4x100-meter relay for Lucero. Another member of the relay team, Drew Matthews, gave North Bend eight points in the team race with a surprising second-place finish in the long jump. Matthews edged Siuslaw’s Billy Jones for second on his final jump. “I was coming in just expecting to score points for my team,” he said. “I came out and jumped the best I’ve done.” Matthews, in his first year of track, wanted to do well because North Bend had a few athletes miss finals in running events by narrow margins. “I felt I needed to step up and get us a little more comfortable point-wise,” he said. Matt Woods won his heat of the 100 for the Bulldogs, but just missed advancing to the finals in the 200. Wyatt Cunningham easily reached

the final in that race, but Marcus Hardman just missed in the 100 and Cam Lucero was edged out of a spot in the finals of the high hurdles. That’s three spots where the Bulldogs could have scored more points in what could become a tight team race. They still have Cunningham in the high jump, the fast relay squad and Drae Stark in the triple jump today, along with a shot at placing in the 4x400 relay. Another team in the mix for the title is Siuslaw, which got its own state champion Friday when Mack Marbas took the 3,000. Marbas took the lead on the second lap and had a comfortable margin the rest of the way, winning in 8 minutes, 42.75 seconds. Teammate Mitchell Butler was fourth. “I was very surprised the way it played out,” said Marbas, who will be back to defend his title in the 1,500 today. “I don’t understand.” He said when he looked up at the stadium’s scoreboard and saw how far back everybody was, he was shocked. Not that he was complaining. Butler, who has battled a number of issues all season, including what he described

as a hormonal imbalance that made him tired, was thrilled for Marbas. “What we’re doing transcends track and field,” Butler said. “He’s a brother and a friend. I was real happy to see him win. I hope to see him win another tomorrow.” Between the points in the 3,000 and Jones’ finish in the long jump, Siuslaw scored 21 points to share the first-day lead with Hidden Valley. Estacada had 18 and North Bend 17. Like North Bend’s boys, Marshfield’s girls had a couple near-misses in qualifying. Brittany Cook reached the final in the 200, but just missed in the 100. Hurdlers Adryana Chavez (high hurdles) and Isabel Groth (low hurdles) also just missed the finals, along with North Bend’s McKenzie Edwards in the longer race. Groth did score for the Pirates in the long jump, placing fourth. “I’m happy with that,” she said. “It feels good to get a medal.” Groth will go for another one today, when she, Cook, Chavez and Hailee Woolsey are among the favorites in the 4x100 relay.

Marshfield’s Isabel Groth runs in a preliminary heat of the 300-meter hurdles Friday during the state track meet at Hayward Field. In a pair of other finals, Siuslaw’s Ashlee Cole placed third in the javelin and North Bend’s Cherise Kirkpatrick just missed placing in the high jump based on misses after seven girls all went out at 4-10, the best of them

placing seventh. Marshfield’s Colby Gillett failed to advance to the final in the 800, while Siuslaw’s Seth Campbell, one of the favorites in the event, needed a surge in the final 80 meters to qualify.

Write a mission statement

Small business on-the-go? Smartphones make it easy BY JOSEPH PISANI The Associated Press NEW YORK — Avi Shenkar runs his four hair salons from the palm of his hand. Work for the owner of Blo/Out Blow Dry Bars begins as soon as he grabs his iPhone at 6 a.m. while still in bed. He scrolls through messages on group texting app GroupMe to see if any of his stylists are running late or need the day off. He pumps pop and electronic dance music through the wireless speakers in his stores using an app for Sonos, a brand of wireless speakers. And he can see what’s going on in each location by watching video on his phone from cameras with the Samsung iPolis app, a video camera security system. “The phone is always with me,” says Shenkar, whose salons do blowouts for $35. “It’s an extension of me.” Smartphones have become vital for on-the-go entrepreneurs. Apps aimed at small business owners allow them to pay bills, update

websites, market their companies, reach out to customers and keep in touch with employees from anywhere. Some owners say their smartphones makes it easier for them to build a side business while keeping a full-time job or step away from the company when needed. They’re also a big help for store owners, like Shenkar, who can’t be at every location at once. “Typically, I drive from one store to another,” says Shenkar, who has three stores in Philadelphia and one in Atlantic City, which is only open in the spring and summer months. Last year, he dropped his iPhone and shattered it before a drive to the Atlantic City shop. “I had to immediately rush over to the Apple Store,” he says. “I didn’t care what the price was, I just got it.” Noah Chaimberg is also attached to his smartphone. He started Heatonist.com, a website that sells specialty hot sauces, in November. He still works a full-time mar-

Manufacturing employment climbed by 60 jobs, 30 of which were in food products. Leisure and hosa continued pitality seasonal uptick, gaining 50 jobs over the month. wareTransportation, housing and utilities added 20 jobs, while government employment fell by 80 over the month, mostly due to losses in local education. Curry County saw a bigger spike: 100 jobs added in April. Leisure and hospitality had the largest share of the gain, up by 50 jobs. Trade, transportation and utilities employment was up by 30, while most other sectors showed little change in April.

Rogue Valley bans GMOs PORTLAND (AP) — Residents of Southern Oregon’s agriculture-heavy Rogue Valley have voted to ban genetically modified crops from the area, setting up the next stage of a fight that has gained widespread attention. Companies that genetically engineer seeds — including Sygenta, giants biotech Monsanto and DuPont Pioneer — spent about $900,000 on their failed campaign. Those that wanted to do away with so-called GMOs — including organic farmers and environmentally friendly soap-maker Dr. Bronner’s — spent about $400,000. Here are some key questions and answers about the topic:

What are GMOs and are they safe? Genetically modified foods are plants or animals that have had genes copied from other plants or animals inserted into their DNA in a laboratory. This is frequently done to make them resistant to pests and herbicides. No mainstream science has shown GMOs to be unsafe. But opponents say not enough testing has been done.

Are genetically modified crops legal in the U.S. ?

County’s ban appears headed for a court battle.

Yes,they are legal.Examples include most of the nation’s soybeans, and papaya in Hawaii. GMO crops were planted on about 169 million U.S. acres in 2013, about half the total land used for crops, according to the USDA. Companies generally aren’t required to report where the fields are located. Opponents want more transparency about where such crops are grown and which foods contain them.

Are there other GMO bans in the U.S.?

What happened in Southern Oregon?

Those who grow genetically modified crops in Jackson or Josephine have a year to harvest or destroy them, according to the ballot measures. Those who ignore the bans face financial penalties. Observers and officials expect both bans to end up in court. If judges hold up the GMO prohibition, it could drive Syngenta out of the Rogue Valley where it grows seed for sugar beets resistant to the weed killer Roundup. Syngenta did not return calls for comment. Monsanto spokeswoman Charla Lord said the company would not sell genetically modified seeds for planting in jurisdictions where their cultivation has been banned.

Organic farmers in the region have tapped a demand for local produce free of pesticides and wanted to prevent their crops from what they consider contamination by cross pollination from nearby GMO crops. They tried to reach a deal with Syngenta to keep modified sugar beets away from organics but pursued a ballot measure when the talks broke down. Bans in Josephine and Jackson counties passed Tuesday. Based on recent Oregon legislation, Jackson County’s ban, which attracted national attention and money, will have the force of law, but Josephine

Q: How do I write a mission statement for my business? A: A business mission statement explains in a few words what your business is all about, what it stands for and what benefit it brings to DOWN TO customers. The most effective mission statements are short, inspiring, inclusive and memARLENE orable. To SOTO craft a dynamic mission statement, allow plenty of time to brainstorm ideas and include positive, supportive people who truly want to see your business succeed in the process. “The best, most effective Mission Statements are not mere empty words, but principles and objectives that guide all other aspects and activities of the business,” Rhonda Abrams says in her book, titled “The Successful Business Plan: Secrets and Strategies.” Once the mission statement is created, goals and objectives that support it can be developed for the business. Crafting a mission statement should start with brainstorming. Carefully consider the answers to the following questions: ■ What market wants, needs, concerns or problems will the organization address? ■ How will the organization meet the market needs? ■ What principles or values guide the organization? After the brainstorming session, it’s time to analyze the answers and group them into categories. Do any themes emerge? Are there ideas that make the participants feel inspired? If so, it’s time to start drafting the mission statement that fits your organization. If not, continue brainstorming. Mission statements vary by company. For example, the mission statement for The Elephant Sanctuary is “A natural habitat refuge where sick, old and needy elephants can once again walk the earth in peace and dignity.” A simple mission statement that communicates a powerful message. The mission statement for the Southwestern Oregon Community College Small Business Development Center is “Strengthening and supporting an entrepreneurial culture.” Once again, simple but informative. Once a mission statement is written it’s time to share it with stakeholders of the organization to see if they agree with it and can support it. This mission statement will be the basis for establishing goals and action steps to move the organization forward, so buy in from all stakeholders including employees, management and owners is necessary. Mission statements may change if the company changes direction. They should be reviewed periodically to see if they are still the best fit for the organization. Most experts suggest a review every three to five years. Arlene M. Soto is the director of the SWOCC Small Business Development Center, www.BizCenter.org. She can be reached at 541-7566445, asoto@socc.edu, or at 2455 Maple Leaf, North Bend, OR 97459.

“I’m constantly on the go,” Chaimberg says. Some entrepreneurs don’t even have to be in the same state to run their business. Kimberly Davison, who co-owns women’s clothing store Goodbuy Girls in Nashville, Tennessee, moved to Los Angeles in April to earn some extra cash as a freelance marketing consultant to pay off a $10,000 dentist bill. She also wanted “to have fun” after running the store for nearly five years. Her co-owner, who drops by the shop a few days a week, was skeptical about the move, Davison says, but the arrangement is working. Davison updates the stores website with an app from website and blog publishing platform WordPress on her

Nokia Lumia smartphone. She gives out a Google Voice phone number to customers so that they can text her if they want to order a T-shirt or a vintage pair of cowboy boots. She uses Google’s calendar to schedule employee work hours and special events, like if a country artist plans to stop by for a fitting. And she uses Instagram to post photos of new items she finds after meeting with clothing wholesalers in Los Angeles. Often, customers ask to buy clothing straight from Instagram. That’s when she’ll respond with a link to the store’s PayPal account to pay for the clothing. “I literally do this sitting on the beach sometimes,” says Davison. “It’s crazy.”

At least a dozen places around the nation have adopted GMO bans or limits, including areas of California, Hawaii, Maine and Washington state. Unlike the Rogue Valley, most of those counties did not have GMO crops growing before the bans.

What happens next in Southern Oregon?

NEW YORK (AP) — Some good news for those with needs: special dietary Websites and apps are making it easier to find foods, and restaurant meals, that are free of gluten or common allergens such as peanuts, eggs, wheat and dairy. VineMarket, a website owned by online retailer Amazon.com Inc., recently relaunched to help those with food allergies find snacks and condiments that they can eat. Another site, AllergyEats, finds nearby restaurants that are friendly to those with allergies. There’s a good reason why companies both big and small are accommodating people with food restrictions. “There’s money to be made here,” says Michael Spigler, vice president of education at the Food Allergy Research and Education advocacy organization. Some 15 million Americans have food allergies, according to FARE. And avoiding gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye, has become trendy after several popular diet books advised cutting it out. And some have serious reasons to avoid gluten: People with the autoimceliac mune disorder disease can’t tolerate it. Here are some sites and apps people with special diets can check out:

Finding groceries VineMarket.com relaunched in March to sell everything from glutenfree pretzels to egg-free double chocolate cookies. A new search function lets you check off which specific ingredients you don’t want in your food. You can click one or several ingredients at a time, and the retailer will give you a list of products without them. AbesMarket.com, an online seller of organic and natural food and beauty products, has a large selection of gluten-free products ranging from pancake mixes to chocolate bars. But even if a product is advertised as gluten- or allergen-free, you still need

Online AbesMarket — abesmarket.com AllergyEats — allergyeats.com HealthyOut — healthyout.com SafeFare — safefare.org VineMarket — vinemarket.com

to read the labels to make sure. Spigler recommends reading ingredient lists three times: When you buy the product, when you put it away in the kitchen and when you cook or serve it.

Finding restaurants site Online review AllergyEats.com lets users rate how allergy-friendly restaurants are. They can also write in tips and comments about the restaurant, such as which dishes to eat. You find restaurants near you based on your food allergy or intolerance. If you’re on the go, AllergyEats has apps for Android and Apple devices. It also has a separate website for places to eat at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. You can find that at AllergyEats.com/Disney. HealthyOut, which is designed to help diners find healthy takeout food, also has an option to find restaurants that serve gluten-free dishes. You can search for eateries on HealthyOut’s website or on its apps for Android and Apple devices. New Yorkers can also use HealthyOut to order food through the website or app for delivery or pick up. It will offer that option nationwide soon, says CEO and co-founder Wendy Nguyen. SafeFare.org, launched in April, lists restaurants that employ workers who have taken an allergen-safety course. The site is run by FARE. Spigler says it will add more restaurants to the site in the next six months. When dining out, it’s still important to ask questions and let servers know about your allergies each time. Food can easily be crosscontaminated in the kitchen. “There are no guarantees,” says Spigler.

The collection of prints, some on paper and others on metal, contains delicate, often ethereal imagery of wildflowers and grasses, and even a hummingbird in mid-flight.

His studio in Wiltshire, England, studio sits in a garden full of ready inspiration. A frothy hydrangea is visited by lime-white butterflies; plump roses cascade in rich tones of velvety red, china blue or dovish pink and gray. His Topiary print was made by laying out 4,000 boxwood leaves in an intricate, damask-like pattern, to which Angove added tiny glittering beetles. The 3-D process creates a luxurious trompe l’oeil effect. (www.michaelangove.com )

With a background in graphic design and fine art, Quebec-born Ysabel LeMay composes fantasy scenes using hundreds of images of flowers, trees, birds, insects and other natural elements, layering them in a process she calls “photo-fusion.” She plays with scale so that an ibis appears to be taking nectar from a lily, and a bunting is landing on an iris as big as an oak tree.

How to choose a landscaper THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A well-landscaped yard, cared for by a professional, will increase the value of your home and property. There is nothing like looking out the window to see maintained beautifully grass. Blooming flowers, rocks and moss will give your surroundings beauty and a feeling of warmth. If you are in the market for a landscaper, consider these tips.

Types of landscapes There are usually five types of landscaped yards. Each requires the landscaper to have a different skill set. It is best to determine which landscape appeals to you before you begin your search for a quality professional. A formal garden uses many geometrical shapes in it’s design. Plants provide a focal point, making the yard appear balanced. To achieve this design, a landscaper will need to carefully prune hedges.

An informal landscape looks like organized chaos. Plants appear to be placed randomly. Landscapers who use this design should be skilled at working with planters and urns. The English garden landscape uses the house as its focal point. All aspects of the yard will flow together. Professionals who use this design should be skilled at working with climbing vines, critical to this style. Oriental designs use rocks, mosses and evergreens. Calmness and quiet minimalism tend to be the effect of this style. To create a woodland design, the landscape must have great knowledge of native plants and making them look their best.

Set your budget Cost is always a concern when hiring a home improvement specialist. Set a budget and stick to it. Understand what you can afford and are willing to spend annually on your

landscaping. It will help you prioritize your list so you can at least get your necessities. You might need to make sacrifices. If you need a new landscaping wall, you might have to delay getting a sprinkler system. On the other hand, if irrigation is a must, then you might need to cut back on how often your lawn is mowed each month.

Prioritize your needs Determining what you need will help you decide which services you require from a landscaping company. Most professionals offer the following: weekly or monthly lawn and garden maintenance, weed control, tree pruning and shaping, garden installations, inspection and maintenance of irrigation systems and possibly even the construction of retaining walls or other structures.

Get referrals Neighbors are sometimes the best way to get referrals. If you like what you see in their yard, ask them for their

company’s name. Discuss the pros and cons of the service as well. You can even watch the company work. It will give you an idea about their employees and work habits even before contacting them. You could also do an online search for landscaping companies. Be sure to read reviews from prior customers. If you see many negative reviews for one company, move on to the next one on your list. Also check the Better Business Bureau (BBB) for more information. If any complaints have been lodged against the company, the BBB will inform you.

Consider availability Availability is another factor when looking for a landscaper. One of the first questions to ask is how often the company will be available for maintenance. If you want to be home while the landscaper is working, make sure you can coordinate your schedule.

No planting space? Try community gardening BY DEAN FOSDICK Associated Press

Community gardens are much more than neighboring plots. Given enough energy and enthusiasm, they morph into support groups, horticulture classes, swap meets or modest profit centers for low- and fixed-income growers. Small wonder there often is more demand than availability. Many have waiting lists. In the Los Angeles area, for example, it can be a year or more before people are able to acquire garden plots, said Yvonne Savio of the University of California Cooperative Extension in Los Angeles County. “Sometimes, people drive clear across town because that’s where their plot opened up first,” Savio said. “Some people bring their tools with them on the bus.” Locations are advertised in newspapers, on the Internet and on neighborhood bulletin boards. Sponsors vary from churches to hospitals, municipalities

to large corporations. “One of our gardens is run by five guys from a church,” Savio said. “They literally farm. They plant what the parishioners want, then harvest the stuff and bring it to church every Sunday.” One Los Angeles-area hospital subsidizes a serenity garden. “They believe it’s healthier for people to be outside in nature rather than stuck in hospital rooms,” Savio said. “It’s not so much what they harvest as it is the occupational therapists being able to exercise their clients.” Many cities offer grants to help get gardens started, said Bill Dawson, a community garden coordinator with the Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens in Columbus, Ohio. “They recognize it’s an amenity, much like a park. Corporations are doing it, too, as a perk to employees.” Community gardens range in size from a few 4by-10-foot sections to several acres.

They are managed either communally — the people in charge decide what needs to be done and when — or left open for individual use. Sites might be offered free, or priced from $5 to $50 and more per season. “Most gardens set fees because their expenditures in time, transportation (for gathering fertilizer, compost, mulch), water and storage are so high,” Savio said. Consider these elements of community gardening before signing up: ■ Know what you’re buying into. Many people join simply to work on their own in personal plots. Communal gardening, however, is a commitment — a chance to interact and share cultures with others, Dawson said. Be open to teaching or learning. ■ Embrace giving. Part of the harvest often is donated to food pantries or people in need. ■ Engage in inter-generational gardening. “Our children come home from school telling us about com-

Gardeners can reserve a 20-foot by 20-foot space for a $50 annual fee, and must use organic growing methods and materials. The gardeners can keep what they grow but are encouraged to share in caring for the communal parts of the garden. posting and organic gardening,” Dawson said. “The elderly know how to preserve and put things by. Families should learn from each other and enjoy. Share stories.” ■ Turn surplus properties into green spaces. “Haul away the needles and trash

and convert the areas into something beautiful and productive,” Dawson said. ■ Community gardening prompts families to make healthier food choices. “They get better at understanding the nutritional value of fresh carrots over

fast foods,” he said. “And if the kids are growing it, they’re eating it.” ■ You can sell some or all of what you grow, Dawson said. “Gardeners can learn marketing skills, while at the same time get some seed money from their gardens.”

How to choose a windows for your home THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Gorgeous windows for your home or commercial building can enhance the appearance of the property. It can also increase its value. But weighing functionality, aesthetics, placement, price and efficiency can be daunting. There are a slew of things to consider. Understanding the terminology used to describe various windows will help you make your decision. Here are common words and phrases you are likely to encounter:

Window glazing The actual glass in a window is called glazing. Many homes and older buildings have a single pane of glass within each frame. It is a traditional style; however, it is

not energy-efficient. Double-glazed windows are the popular option. There are two panes of glass in a frame. The gap between the panes acts as a layer of insulation. It improves the window’s ability to maintain the building’s temperature. Sometimes, newer structures have triple-glazed windows. They are more expensive, but they also provide additional insulation benefits.

R-values R-values measure the amount of heat a window loses through its glass panes. Higher R-values mean more energy efficiency. An Rvalue of 3 is very desirable.

U-values U-values tell you the level at which a window conducts

heat. The lower the U-value, the better. People who live in wintery climates should choose replacement windows with strong R-value and U-value ratings to conserve energy.

Low-e Low-emissive, or low-e, windows are the latest innovations in the energy-efficiency mark. Low-e glass traps heat by placing a thin metallic coating on the appropriate window pane. Indoor radiant heat is reflected back inside, cutting the burden on a building’s heating system. If you live in a cold climate, install a low-e window as a complement to low U-value components. People who live in sunnier, warmer climates can also take advantage of low-e

I learned it in my Keds I’m asked fairly regularly how I learned about all this homeownering stuff. (OK, sometimes it’s along the lines of: “What makes you so damned smart?” But the answer’s pretty much the same.) I paid attention. I was the little kid on the sidewalk, rocking back on his Keds, watching new houses go up in the neighborhood and pestering the workers, asking, “Whatcha doin’, mister?” Because if I asked that question politely enough, they’d nearly always tell me. I observed throughout my childhood that adults all love to teach. They ache to share their hard-earned knowledge, and they’ll spend an inordinate amount of their (boss’) time explaining how to cut relief joints in freshly poured concrete, how to hang a door, how to lay shingles, how to put up clapboards. And, as often as not, they’ll turn a blind eye to it when you filch a few cut-offs from the scrap pile or prowl the job site for whatever nails may have gone astray. It’s also good for a kid to have a dad and a granddad and an almost-uncle who know a lot about handiness. One teaches a 5-year-old how to cane the seat of a chair. Another shows an 8year-old how to shim a rafter that’s a little off. A third explains to a 10-year-old how to burn the old paint off

a rowboat with a blow torch — and let’s him try it himself! And then it doesn’t hurt a bit when those same folks ignore the noise and the danger as a pre-teen and his cohorts build nearly two dozen treehouses — in their own trees or in the ones in the vacant HOUSE lots that the h o u s e builders haven’t gotten to yet. Mainly made from the lumber and nails they’ve, STEVE um, liberBATIE ated from those same builders’ job sites. It also works out well if many of those people conspire to make sure the kid unwraps hammers and saws and drills and sanders when Christmases and birthdays roll around. And it helps that a 13year-old lucks out with a couple of shop teachers who know about welding and using a sheet metal brake, about planing and keeping a plane’s iron sharp, about cleaning paint brushes and sweeping up sawdust and putting tools back on the shelves and racks where they’re supposed to be. About composing sticks and flat-bed presses and the California job case. (I may be

the youngest person in the newspaper business who knows about such things, because all that wonderful gear had very nearly vanished by the time I got into it.) It’s probably sheer luck that the young fellow finds landlords who don’t mind that the walls of apartments and run-down houses are painted deep red and burnt orange and fuschia, that built-ins appear where there never were built-ins before, that space heaters have been installed in once-empty attics that now seem to be chopped into bedrooms. That young fellow’s gotta practice somewhere, right? So when he eventually takes the plunge and actually becomes a homeowner, he’s ready. He haunts the libraries and hounds hardware store clerks, and he learns how to cut and lay ceramic tile, how to mud and sand drywall, how to build redwood decks and brick patios and railroad-tie retaining walls. He makes a lot of mistakes, of course, but he's better at it the next time. Better still the time after that. And after a while, well, he’s pretty damned smart about this homeownering stuff.

windows. The summer’s higher levels of infrared rays are reflected back outside, keeping the interior of the house cooler.

UV factors Blocking UV rays will spare your carpets and furniture from sun damage. That’s why a window with high ultra-violet blockage is recommended, especially for people who live in warm climates.

Casement windows When energy efficiency is a key concern, casement windows are the best choice. This simple high-and-crank design lowers air seepage. When the wind pushes against the glass, the seal becomes tight and reduces leakage. Casement windows are hinged on the sides. When the windows have top

hinges, they are called awning windows. Hoppers are bottom-hinged windows. Hinged windows must be maintained, as the seal erodes over time. When left unchecked, the erosion can make the window less energy efficient.

Other factors Large differences between interior and exterior temperatures create meddlesome condensation on glass. Always choose a window appropriate for your climate. Window placement is another factor when building a new structure. Consider the building’s position and location as they relate to the sun. Windows facing the south let in more heat than north-facing windows. Properly placed, a window can increase a

structure’s passive solar efficiency. Extreme temperatures cause frames and seals to deteriorate more quickly. Windows using warm-air technology and adequate spacers reduce temperature fluctuations, placing less strain on seals and framing. Before beginning any improvement project to your home or business, understand the building codes in your area. You may need a permit to do a major windowreplacement project. If you don’t have the required paperwork in order, you might have to pay a fine, remove the work that’s already been done and start over. Knowing basic terminology and concepts before you shop for windows will save you time and money in the long run. It is really less complicated than it looks.

Religion Christian exodus shadows papal visit to Holy Land BETHLEHEM, West Bank (AP) — Pope Francis will arrive this weekend in the land where Christianity was born — and where Christians are disappearing. This ancient community has dwindled to around 2 percent of the region’s population as economic hardship, violence and the bitter realities of the IsraeliPalestinian conflict have sent Christians searching for better opportunities overseas. The Christian exodus,

underway for decades, has reached critical levels in recent years. Emigration is a central concern to local Vatican officials, who are trying to stave off the flight with offers of jobs, housing and scholarships. “I am sad to think that maybe the time will come in which Christianity will disappear from this land,” said the Rev. Juan Solana, a Vatican envoy who oversees the Notre Dame center, a Jerusalem hotel for pilgrims that employs 150 locals,

mostly Christians. Solana said he employs Christians to encourage them “to stay here, to love this land, to be aware of their particular vocation to be the witnesses of Christianity in this land.” The Christian exodus is taking place across the Middle East. Jordan, where Pope Francis will begin his three-day trip Saturday, has thousands of Christian refugees from war-torn Syria and Iraq. For the Church, the phe-

nomenon is particularly heartbreaking in the cradle of Christianity. According to Christian tradition, Jesus was born in the West Bank town of Bethlehem, spent much of his life in Nazareth and the northern Galilee region of Israel, and was crucified and resurrected in Jerusalem. The pope said in a November speech that “we will not be resigned to think about the Middle East without Christians,” lamenting that they “suffer particularly

from the consequences of the tensions and conflicts underway” across the region. Christians in the Holy Land have dwindled from over 10 percent of the population on the eve of Israel’s founding to between 2 and 3 percent today, according to the local Roman Catholic church. The decline began with high Jewish immigration and Christian emigration after the 1948 war surrounding Israel’s establishment, and has been abetted by contin-

ued emigration and a low birthrate among Christians who stay. Israeli restrictions in the occupied West Bank have also persuaded Christians to leave. The concrete and fence barrier Israel built to keep out Palestinian attackers has choked cities like Bethlehem and separated Palestinians from their farmlands. Many Palestinian Christians are prohibited from entering Jerusalem except during holidays.

You had me going there for a few m i n u te s with “Pi Day.” I was Mary kinda hoping Hunt for cherry or apple, but then connected the date 3.14 with the mathematical pi. Now that is clever and a new bit of trivia I’m going to file away. As for “Founder’s Day,” should we assume that our buddy Christopher Columbus has been demoted to anonymous founder? Dear Mary: I’m sure you must have an easy way to clean the soleplate of my iron. I ironed a dark-colored article of clothing with too hot of an iron, I guess, and the soleplate now has dark sticky junk stuck on tight. I tried cleaning it with white vinegar and that didn’t help at all. I also tried rubbing it with a damp cloth and baking powder. Didn’t do it either. Please help! Thanks much. — Kathy M. Dear Kathy: It sounds to me as if you may have ironed a synthetic fabric such as polyester that turned into molten plastic upon contact with that way-too-hot iron! To remove it you’re going to need some kind of abrasive. Try this: Dampen a towel you don’t mind sacrificing for the job. Now sprinkle a good bit of table salt on that damp cloth. Turn the iron up to the highest temperature (no steam) and go to work “ironing” the salted towel. That should loosen the gunk without damaging the soleplate so that you can wipe it off and then buff the soleplate with a clean cloth. If that doesn’t work, don’t despair. You’ll need to purchase a commercial iron cleaner such as Faultless Hot Iron Cleaner. It’s a miraculous cleaner for more challenging situations like you describe, but I also use it to maintain the smooth glide of my iron. If you don’t want to get it online, you should be able to find it in larger fabric stores. Mary invites questions at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or c/o Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2099, Cypress, CA 90630. This column will answer questions of general interest, but letters cannot be answered individually.

What are they up to? No other news outlet monitors local officials the way our reporters do.

Watchdog journalism. We’ve got it!

SUNDAY, MAY 25, 2014 Take action and proceed with goals that you’ve left unfinished.You will face setbacks if you give in to people vying for your attention. Maintain your focus — if you allow yourself to become sidetracked, you will lose the momentum necessary to reach your destination. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Negative feedback may daunt you. If you know in your heart that what you are doing is right, don’t be dissuaded by pessimism. Do what works best for you. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — It’s not much fun to sit on the outside looking in. Find an organization or group that inspires you, and join in. It’s a great way to start meaningful friendships. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — It’s time to do something that pleases you. Let the people who demand the most fumble along without you, and you will be more appreciated in the future. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Fulfill your curiosity about unusual places, people and cultures. Read up on areas of interest, or consider attending a cultural event. The more you see, the more you’ll discover. Consider altering your lifestyle. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Remember, there are people in your life who look up to you. Abandon any bad habits that may influence others. Your self-image will improve if you devote time to making positive changes. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Your concern for others is greatly admired. Now is the right time to go full speed ahead toward your dreams.Your tenacity and hard work will lead to victory. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Elderly relatives will appreciate any time you can spare. A visit from you could make someone’s day. A conscious effort to do something good will bring you peace and satisfaction. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You are due for a change of pace. Find a challenge that is uncharacteristic of you, and take part. Your enthusiasm will ensure that you

have a wonderful time. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Don’t let the upheaval around you dominate your mood.You will be faulted if you take sides, so remain neutral. Pleasurable distractions will be the best way to resolve discord. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Any opportunity that allows you to use your vivid imagination must be seized. Your unconventional outlook and myriad of creative skills will result in increased recognition. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Don’t hide your feelings. If you value the friends and relatives in your life, let them know what is on your mind. Show your true colors and work hard to resolve past issues. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Friends or relatives will provide you with important information. Your employment opportunities are greater than ever, but you will have to keep your emotions under control if you want to get ahead. MONDAY, MAY 26, 2014 Surround yourself with supportive people and aim to be happy this year. Negative thinking and attitudes will only slow you down, so avoid them at all costs. With so many opportunities coming your way, an enthusiastic outlook will make a difference. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Someone may be trying to pin the blame on you for something you didn’t do. Avoid stress by remaining calm and taking care of your responsibilities, and you will stay ahead of the competition. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — No one else truly understands what you are going through. Stop beating around the bush. Let the important people in your life know how you feel and what you want. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You have plenty to deal with, but if you do a good job, you will be given credit for it. Gauge your time so that you can live up to your responsibilities.
