Stand Down delivers for vets

The World

COOS BAY — The community came together once again to help those in need at the fifth annual Veterans Stand Down.

The event took place Friday at the National Guard Armory.

Traditionally, a stand down refers to providing exhausted troops in combat a place of relative security and safety, but this event was aimed at helping homeless veterans who might not otherwise receive help. It also provided services to other veterans, including information on housing, employment and counseling, as well as free dental care, clothing and food.

There are about 8,900 veterans signed up to receive benefits in Coos County, said Eric Gleason, veterans service officer for the Coos County Veterans Service Office. The event helped about 500 of those last year, he said. He expected the same number this year.

The 50 or so tables at Friday’s event provided a cornucopia of information and services.

Send monetary or other donations to the Coos Community Foundation/Veterans Stand Down Fund, 1499 N. Collier St., Coquille, OR 97423. For more information on the annual Veterans Stand Down, visit www.coosbaystanddown.org.

Veterans enjoyed free meals, clothing and medical services at the event.

“If you need it and it’s not here, I’d be surprised,” Gleason said.

Doors were open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with a line-up of veterans of all ages, branches and economic status.

Although veterans may have asked for many things, they might not have received them.

“They get mostly what they need more than what they want,” said Norman Fraser, a veteran who served six years in the Marines and manned the front counter of the distribution area of surplus military supplies.

This year, the Department of Defense supplied 25 pallets of clothing, bedding and backpacks, compared to last year’s 72, according to Sgt. Justin T. Gray, with the Oregon National Guard.

“It depends on what your living condition is,” said Sgt. Steve Mann. “If you’re truly homeless, you’re getting a decent amount of stuff.”

NORTH BEND — North Bend teachers who want to bring “controversial” material into their classrooms have to follow a new procedure, one that some school board members worry will cause those teachers to shy away from refreshing their curriculum with new ideas.

This all began in May,when North Bend High Principal Bill Lucero came to Scott Peters’classroom with a box and demanded the students return their copies of the Toni Morrison novel, “The Bluest Eye.” The incident found its way to the school board, which decided to review the district’s little-known “Studying Controversial Issues” policy so this wouldn’t happen again.

The policy committee came back with revisions last month, but they couldn’t decide on a definition for “controversial issues.” At the school board meeting Monday night, the committee found the words: “Controversy arises when opinions differ on a subject because of deeply held values that conflict.

For the purpose of this policy, a controversial issue is restricted to those subjects which, when stud-

ied, can reasonably be expected to produce a need for interventional support for members of the class.”

Previously, the policy required a teacher to present “obviously controversial” topics to his or her principal, who would then approve or deny the request.

Now, teachers are required to discuss the controversial issue with their professional learning community. No matter what the PLC decides, it then has to submit a Studying Controversial Issues form to its principal, who will convene a Curriculum Review Committee.

That committee will consist of the principal, assistant principal and curriculum director. The principal can choose to include others when appropriate, i.e., including a librarian when discussing a controversial text.

This idea grew from a discussion between Superintendent Bill Yester, Lucero,Curriculum Director Tiffany Rush and most of the high school English department, Yester said.

Modular classroom approved for North Bend Middle School

BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

NORTH BEND — A modular classroom will soon be secured on the back of North Bend Middle School, giving extra room for the addition of Lighthouse School.

The North Bend planning commission approved North Bend School District’s modular request Thursday night. The two modulars will be connected, similar to a doublewide mobile home, city planner David Voss said.

The foundation rock already has been laid, said school board chair Megan Jacquot.

“It used to be a playground, so this will be quieter than what it

used to be used for,” she laughed.

Neighbor Jason Bowman is concerned about traffic and parking.

The intersection of 16th and E streets already bottlenecks after school every day, he said.

“I’d hate to see kids running across the street in front of cars to get to their parents’ cars,” he said.

District facilities and maintenance manager Rhonda Hoffine said staff and families have been notified they are not allowed to park or idle on the surrounding streets.

Superintendent Bill Yester hopes to ease congestion by staggering buses after school. Three SEE APPROVED | A8

Southwestern Oregon Community College When the state of Oregon was planning a community college system in the 1950s, some local leaders thought Coos and Curry County citizens required only vocational training, not a liberal arts college.

Henry Hansen, a leader of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, had a bigger vision, and his union was instrumental in convincing voters to tax themselves for a community college on the coast. Southwestern Oregon Community College was established in 1961, becoming Oregon’s first community college, and Hansen — a high school dropout — became chairman of its first board.

Today SWOCC serves a population of about 90,000 between Coos Bay and the California border. The college currently serves 10,000 students a year at its main campus in

Coos Bay, the Curry County campus in Brookings, and sites in Gold Beach and Port Orford, in addition to high schools throughout the area. The Oregon Coast Culinary Institute, established in 2001, has its own facility on the main campus.

SWOCC is one of only three of Oregon’s 17 community colleges that has housing on campus.

But many students obtain transfer degrees that they take to four-year colleges, and others obtain bachelor’s or master’s degrees from other Oregon colleges through the Southwestern Oregon University Center on campus. And a

Bay Area Hospital and North Bend Medical Center are combining efforts to bring medical oncology to the hospital’s existing Radiation Treatment Center.

New superintendent named for Shutter Creek prison NORTH BEND — There’s a new leader at Shutter Creek Correctional Institution.

The state Department of Corrections named Kimberly Hendricks as superintendent of the prison in northern Coos County, effective Sept. 1.

Hendricks has been the hearings administrator at DOC headquarters in Salem since 2009 and has been with the department for 13

years, starting as a safety manager at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility in 2001.

Shutter Creek is a minimum-security prison, housing about 300 men who are within four years of release. They receive education, transitional services and work opportunities.

Originally an Air National Guard station, it was converted to a prison in 1990.

Completion is scheduled for May 2015, with radiation equipment to follow.

“It’s a wonderful joint venture for us,” said Barbara Bauder, the hospital’s chief development officer.

The current radiation therapy center is a freestanding building, which was built in 1990 and designed for growth.

Without the local oncol-

What’s the real lesson here?

Our view The North Bend School Board may have stifled controversial discussions by layering on bureaucracy.

What do you think?

The World welcomes letters. Email us at letters@theworldlink.com.

We appreciate the North Bend School Board’s efforts this week to address the issue of controversial materials in the classroom, especially after the administration’s rather clumsy handling of the issue last spring.

What the board has come up with, however, sounds like just more bureaucracy that will only discourage discussion of controversial subjects at all.

In fact, some board members uttered that very concern during their deliberations Monday evening.

The issue arose last May after North Bend High principal Bill Lucero came

unannounced to a classroom and retrieved from students’ hands copies of Toni Morrison’s novel, “The Bluest Eye.” The book contains frank discussions of racism and incest.

The book confiscation brought attention to the district’s little-known “studying controversial issues” policy, and the board decided, rightly, to re-examine the policy.

What resulted Monday, though, was a definition of controversy that, frankly, reads like something drafted by a committee: “For the purpose of this policy, a controversial issue is restricted to those subjects which, when

studied, can reasonably be expected to produce a need for interventional support for members of the class.”

Huh? What’s “interventional support” imply?

Counseling?

Then, the board piled on additional committee procedures that teachers will need to follow if they want to bring new, “obviously controversial” material into the classroom.

Here’s what board member Julianna Seldon had to say if she were a teacher and looked at the policy, “I would go, ‘I give up.’”

And here’s board president Megan Jacquot: “I hope staff

doesn’t get the idea that we don’t want them to teach things that are controversial or hard to deal with, because that’s exactly what we want our honors students to be learning.”

Then the board unanimously approved the revised policy anyway, with a promise to review it again in a year.

Frankly, we’ll be surprised if the board has any activity to review in a year. Teachers won’t bother, there will be no controversy over controversy, and the board can claim victory.

We’re not sure that’s the kind of lesson the school board wants for its students.

Cheers Jeers

A pat on the back for Mike Lehman and a sigh of relief from all those who rely on Oregon Coast Community Action and the plethora of social services it provides. Word is that this year’s audit is looking good and the organization’s image is getting the tarnish polished off.

Finances are healthy enough to continue the mission while affording employees much deserved cost-of-living wage hikes. Thanks, Mike!

Going native Talk about a roadside attraction.

Take a drive through Bandon and catch an eye-popping glimpse of the new mural on the back side of Bandon Mercantile. The artwork depicts 12 plants native to the area, including columbine, wild iris, tiger lily and skunk cabbage.

Bandon High School students, working with local muralist Vicki Affatati and Go Native facilitator Darcy Grahek, created the piece to bring attention to the school’s Go Native program, recognizing the importance of native plants and biodiversity.

Keep your hands off my stuff Latest word from our local gendarmes is that thieves have gotten bold enough to actually bust your vehicle windows out to grab your goodies — and in broad daylight, for Pete’s sake.

Even the family member of a Coos Bay’s police officer got robbed. (God help the thief who pulled that job.) Advice: don’t leave bait obviously showing in your vehicle, and keep your eyes open.

Crab cash The harvest may have dipped, but prices on Dungeness crab seem to have made up for it. According to Oregon Dungeness Crab Commission Executive Director Hugh Link, the annual harvest is expected to be below the average of 14 million pounds. But he expects the value of the take to exceed $49.7 million, slightly better than last year’s value of $49.4 million. And fishermen barely have time to take a breather and repair gear since the next season’s opening is only four months away.

Letters to the Editor Chapter BZ says thanks for help P.E.O. Chapter BZ of Reedsport would like to thank the communities of Winchester Bay, Reedsport and Gardiner for their continued support, which provides scholarship opportunities to graduating senior girls and women pursuing college educations.

Through your generosity and purchase of carnations during our fall fundraiser and our annual Holiday Basket Raffle, Chapter BZ awarded two local memorial scholarships of $1,500 each. We are very pleased to congratulate Shania Enfield and Bethany Hedges and wish them success in their educational goals.

The Scholarship Committee of Oregon State Chapter P.E.O. selected Amanda Stubblefield of Reedsport as recipient of the Oregon Scholarship award, $1,250, for continuing studies at Corban University during 20142015.

Through the years, the outpouring of support for local students to further their education has made our communities a

special place to live. Thank you is such a small word but it is filled with appreciation.

A nation of thieves and liars We have become a nation of thieves and liars. How did we get to this state of affairs? Greed and the excessive love of money. There are people who are narcissistic sociopaths and they are preying on the rest of us. They are not inventors or creators. They are society’s leeches.

We have two well-known cases with Coos County connections.

The Bettencourt/Kustom Products case is perhaps the worst, since it could have resulted in the deaths of American service people in Iraq. The Bettencourts were able to give the lowest bid to our Department of Defense for parts used on military vehicles, including the Kiowa helicopters.

They could bid less because they did not use approved subcontractors to make the parts.They used a company who had the parts made

more cheaply in places like China.

So when the Army mechanics in Kentucky noticed that the “Jesus Nuts” for the helicopters weren’t right, the DOD started investigating.

This case has stretched out over several years, with the defendants pleading not guilty until early this year. They finally pleaded guilty, and sentencing is supposed to happen in December.

The World has covered the case somewhat, but the best place to watch is www.fbi.gov/Bettencourts&Kust omProducts.

The other case with local ties is found at www.fbi.gov/MichaelD.Drobet.

Mr. Drobet owns several large properties in Coos County but his crimes were committed in California. He is the former owner of Pacific Hospital in Long Beach.

Drobet would give doctors kickbacks if they sent patients to his hospital for spinal surgeries. He also had shell companies that sold his hospital medical devices at greatly inflated prices and then billed places like the California worker’s compensation system.

He’s in real trouble for bribing

state Sen. Ron Calderon in order to help keep the con going.

Supposedly, Calderon and his brother will never see the light of day again because their sentences are so lengthy.

My point is that it’s easy to get rich if you cheat. Unfortunately, in this country, the richer and more powerful you are the less likely you are to go to jail.

Neil deGrasse Tyson is a nice man When I first encountered Neil deGrasse Tyson,I thought,“What a nice man.” He was on the TV screens at New York’s Hayden Planetarium, where he’s director, urging us to behold the wonder of — to use the biblical term — the heavens.

That impression only grew on seeing his television show, “Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey.”

Here he bursts with elation over the great scientific breakthroughs, guiding us into the subject with the kindly enthusiasm of the gifted teacher.

So imagine my surprise to learn that Tyson has become the object of not just mild disapproval but loathing on the political right.

Example: Tyson has become “the fetish and totem of the extraordinarily puffed-up ‘nerd’ culture,” Charles C.W. Cooke writes in National Review before descending into a lunatic rant about science-minded people “babbling about statistics” and their imagined contempt of those who are Southern,politically con-

servative, religious and patriotic. (He likes the term “one suspects.”)

We’ve seen this movie b e f o r e .

Drumming up resentment against the edu- FROMA cated “elite” has HARROP been a time- Columnist honored way to flatter and comfort struggling Americans — and thus win their votes.

Still, it was odd to find this anti-science bombast in the magazine founded by the exquisitely cultivated William F. Buckley — a gentleman whose life mission was to lift conservatism from this kind of boobery.

I’m looking for something Tyson has said that could be construed as pushing a liberal, much less left-wing, agenda. Cooke conjures up a link so flimsy it would have been laughed out of court at the Scopes Monkey Trial.

Tyson, he states, can be “pointed to as the sort of person who wouldn’t vote for Ted Cruz.”

Well, that clinches it. Though let’s ignore for the moment that the same would go for most Republicans I know.

More to the point, Tyson has never said anything publicly about Cruz. But he did serve on George W. Bush’s Commission on Moon, Mars and Beyond. And he has disappointed many on the left for dismissing fears over genetically modified foods as scientifically unfounded.

The probable problem with Tyson is that he is genial and speaks with the common touch but gives no quarter to those demanding scientific ignorance of their public figures. Those are admirable qualities — in most of the developed world.

Meanwhile, why would a welladjusted person feel threatened by the obvious fact that our top scientists know a lot more about their subject than he or she probably does?

Hey, we’re back at the planetarium, watching the space show under the huge dome, Tyson narrating. He’s talking about supernovas and pulsars.

After about three minutes, I’m totally lost. So are others in the audience. But we settle back and enjoy the spectacular show — all that cosmic matter up there, collapsing and then exploding in beautiful clouds of blue and pink.

That other Americans know this stuff should be a source of pride. Prowess in the sciences has always been one of the foundations of American greatness. Is the national interest to be sacrificed on the altar of whatever’s eating at the far right?

Face it. Tyson’s foes have got the ignorance vote all wrapped up.

And don’t underestimate it.

But if science educators like Tyson are drinking $16 cocktails in hotels — as National Review’s steamed-up screed would have it — the patriotic response is not resentment. It’s to pick up the tab.

Come Sen. Wyden calls for surveillance policy shift back STATE down to earth DEAR ABBY: I have been single for a couple of years. I have always been levelheaded when it comes to romance, but I’m finding myself unable to control my feelings about the new man I’m seeing.

“Brent” is smart, intelligent, sweet and loving. We have been dating for a little over a week and he has already given me keys to his place. (I have a roommate, or I would have given him my keys, too!)

I love him. He loves me. I am so happy. I feel calm and confident about how we’re progressing. This is a first for me. I know it’s unusually fast, but my parents got married six weeks after they met, and they’re still happy together after 37 DEAR years.

Love at first sight is rare, but I think this is it.

Your thoughts?

— WOWED IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR JEANNE WOWED: PHILLIPS I’m glad for your parents, but because they married six weeks after they met does not mean you must repeat history. Right now, you and Brent appear to be caught up in a whirl of endorphins and adrenaline. Because you asked for my thoughts I’ll share them: Slow down until both of you have your feet back on the ground because that is how solid relationships are built. Your folks were an exception to the rule.

If you don’t believe me, ask them.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 62year-old male. My problem is I have never been married, and when I go on dates, women always want to know why I’m still single.

The reasons are financial and also that I’m allergic to cats. (A lot of women own cats.) I have never made much money, and I live with my mother. I can’t afford to move out, and even when I had a place of my own, it didn’t make much difference. I’d like to be married, but this has become a catch-22. No one wants to marry me because I have never been married.

I have looked this issue up online and it is a huge problem; women definitely discriminate against nevermarried men. Sometimes I wonder if I should lie and say I’m a widower. What can I say to women who interrogate me about this? — SEARCHING FOR A MATE IN SAN DIEGO DEAR SEARCHING: If you lie about the fact that you’re a lifelong bachelor, at some point the truth will come out and your credibility will be shot. That’s why I’m advising you to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Your marital status is nothing to be ashamed of.

Not everyone is meant to be married. You say you are 62 and live with your mother because you can’t afford to live on your own. Has it occurred to you that you might not be able to afford being married?

Also, marriage is a big adjustment for anyone — male or female. There is no guarantee that a person who has become set in his or her ways can successfully make that transition. This is not to say that you shouldn’t have companionship, but you don’t need a wife for that. A good friend — or several — could provide it.

PORTLAND (AP) — U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden is calling for a shift in surveillance policy.

In a speech delivered Friday at a Portland tech conference, the Oregon Democrat said surveillance agencies are able to use outdated court decisions to justify intercepting information that is private.

The government has long been able to examine records that go through a third party, like a phone call or bank transfer, without the onerous process of obtaining a search warrant. That communication is labeled as a business record.

But Wyden says the government needs to treat those communications more like paper correspondence, which has more protections.

Mom gets 5 years for crash killing daughter

PORTLAND (AP) — A woman who crashed her SUV after falling asleep while drunk driving — killing one of her children — has been sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty to criminally negligent homicide and other charges.

Mattie Spino of Dallesport, Wash., was driving home from a visit to Mount Hood last November when she fell asleep. All five of her children were in the SUV. At Friday’s court appearance, public defender Kasia Rutlege said her 32-year-old client has had a lot of trauma in life. Rutledge noted that one of Spino’s sons died after

her arrest. The boy was crushed by a boulder while hiking in Washington.

Coast tribe seeks federal recognition

PORTLAND (AP) — An Oregon congresswoman wants federal recognition for the Clatsop-Nehalem Confederated Tribes on the northern Oregon coast.

A bill by Democratic U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici would restore federal benefits to the Indian tribe, but not fishing or hunting rights.

Recognition wouldn’t require a reservation, but allows members to live in

Tillamook and Clatsop counties.

The tribe has been seeking federal recognition for several decades.

More than a century ago, the tribe signed treaties with the U.S. government that were never ratified and left the tribe in legal limbo. The Indians were forced from their lands by white settlers and in 1954 Congress “terminated” their recognition.

Sheridan prison complex over capacity PORTLAND (AP) — The medium-security federal prison in Sheridan is 47 percent over its intended population.

A U.S. Bureau of Prisons spokesman Chris Burke tells The Oregonian that

Sheridan’s Federal Correctional Institution had 1,134 inmates as of this week.

It’s built for just 769.

Unused Portland jail serves as film set PORTLAND (AP) — The Wapato Jail in north Portland hasn’t housed a single inmate in the decade since it was built, but it has been a popular site for film crews.

Multnomah County spokesman David Austin says about 50 productions have been shot inside the jail, including scenes for “Portlandia,” “Grimm” and “Leverage.”

The county spends about $300,000 a year to maintain the jail that was built at a cost of $58 million before it was determined it was unneeded.

Nation Rick Perry indicted for coercion for veto threat AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A grand jury indicted Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Friday for allegedly abusing the powers of his office by carrying out a threat to veto funding for state prosecutors investigating public corruption — making the possible 2016 presidential hopeful his state’s first indicted governor in nearly a Rick Perry century.

Texas governor A special prosecutor spent months calling witnesses and presenting evidence that Perry broke the law when he promised publicly to nix $7.5 million over two years for the public integrity unit run by the office of Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg. Lehmberg, a Democrat, was convicted of drunken driving, but refused Perry’s calls to resign.

Though the Republican governor now faces two felony indictments, politics dominates the case.

Lehmberg is based in Austin, which is heavily Democratic, in contrast to most of the rest of fiercely conservative Texas.

Police identify officer, allege teen robbed store

BY DAVID A. LIEB AND ALAN SCHER ZAGIER The Associated Press

FERGUSON, Mo. — Police on Friday identified the officer who fatally shot an unarmed black teenager and released documents alleging the young man had been suspected of stealing a $48.99 box of cigars from a convenience store in a “strong-arm” robbery shortly before he was killed.

Police Chief Thomas Jackson said the officer did not know the teen was a robbery suspect at the time of the shooting and stopped Michael Brown and a companion “because they were walking down the middle of the street blocking traffic.”

Darren Wilson, a 28-year-old white officer, has patrolled suburban St. Louis for six years and had no previous complaints filed

against him, Jackson said.

Brown’s relatives said no robbery would justify shooting the teen after he put his hands up. Family attorneys said Brown’s parents were blindsided by the allegations and the release of a surveillance video from the store.

“It appears to be him,” attorney Daryl Parks said, referring to the footage, which he said was released without any advance notice from police.

The police chief described Wilson as “a gentle, quiet man” who had been “an excellent officer.” He has been on the Ferguson force for four years and served prior to that in the neighboring community of Jennings.

Wilson, who was placed on administrative leave after the Aug. 9 shooting, “never intended for any of this to happen,” Jackson said.

A MINUTE MESSAGE From

NORM RUSSELL

Laughter and Sadness I am so thankful God made laughter. How depressing our world would be if we could not laugh. Someone has said that laughter is important to our over all physical well-being. Whether that be true or not, there is something extremely enjoyable when we hear people laugh. One of my favorite moments is when I hear my kids laugh, especially when their parents are laughing with them.

It saddens me to hear of Robin Williams passing. He was such a great source of laughter. The sit com Mork and Mindy was a half hour of constant laughter.

Then Mrs. Doubtfire and Good Morning Vietnam provided times of humor.

Apparently, however, while he was making all of us laugh, he was weeping internally. His depression, and maybe some other problem we are not aware of, eventually took its toll on him and he decided death was better than life.

We are reminded how important relationships are. It is too bad someone was not close enough to help him get help, or maybe they were but could not find a way to encourage him to seek help. This is why we have church. We come together to encourage and build one another up. Jesus built the church, He died for it, and He expects us to reach out to one another.

Have no church? Come worship with us Sunday.

Russia denies its military vehicles destroyed in Ukraine KAMENSK-SHAKHTINSKY, Russia (AP) — NATO on Friday said a Russian military column ventured overnight into Ukraine, and the Ukrainian president said his forces destroyed most of it.

Russia denied all of this, but the reports spooked global markets and overshadowed optimism driven by agreement over a Russian aid convoy bound for eastern Ukraine.

The White House said it was looking into what it called unconfirmed reports that Ukraine’s security forces disabled vehicles in a Russian military convoy inside Ukraine.

The Russian aid convoy of more than 250 trucks has been a source of tensions since it set off from Moscow on Tuesday. Kiev and the West were suspicious that the mission could be a pretext for

Aid group: W. Africa Ebola outbreak like ‘wartime’ MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) — The Ebola outbreak that has killed more than 1,100 people in West Africa could last another six months, the Doctors Without Borders charity group said Friday. One aid worker acknowledged that the true death toll is still unknown.

New figures released by the World Health Organization showed that Liberia has recorded more Ebola deaths — 413 — than any of the other affected countries.

Tarnue Karbbar, who works for the aid group Plan International in northern Liberia, said response teams simply aren’t able to document all the erupting Ebola cases. Many of the sick are still being hidden at home by their relatives, who are too fearful of going to an Ebola treatment center.

Others are being buried before the teams can get to remote areas, he said. In the last several days, about 75 cases have emerged in Voinjama, a single Liberian district.

“Our challenge now is to quarantine the area (in Voinjama) to successfully break the transmission,” he said.

There is no cure or licensed treatment for Ebola and patients often die gruesome deaths with external bleeding from their mouths, eyes or ears. The killer virus is transmitted through bodily fluids like blood, sweat, urine and diarrhea. A handful of people have received an experimental drug whose effectiveness is unknown.

a Russian military incursion into eastern Ukraine, where government forces are battling pro-Russia separatists and clawing back rebel-held territory.

Throughout the eastern crisis that erupted in April, there have been consistent allegations that Russia is fomenting or directing the rebellion. Moscow rejects the allegations and the highprofile aid convoy could be aimed, in part, at portraying Russia as interested in cooling the conflict. Russian President Vladimir Putin appeared to cultivate that perception in a Thursday speech in which he said Russia hopes for peace in Ukraine.

It was not clear what Russia could hope to gain by sending in a military column while world attention was trained

EU ministers pledged to step up efforts to help those fleeing advancing Islamic State militants, with several nations announcing they will fly dozens of tons of aid to northern Iraq over the coming days.

“First of all, we need to make sure that we alleviate humanitarian suffering,” Dutch Foreign Minister Frans Timmermans told reporters. “Secondly, I believe we need to make sure that (Islamic State) is not in a position to overrun the Kurds or to take a stronger hold on Iraq.”

BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union on Friday forged a unified response to the rapid advance of Islamic militants in Iraq and the resulting refugee crisis, allowing direct arms deliveries to Kurdish fighters battling the Sunni insurgents. Several EU nations pledged more humanitarian aid.

The emergency meeting of the bloc’s 28 foreign ministers in Brussels marked a shift toward greater involvement in Iraq, following weeks during which the Europeans mainly considered the situation an American problem

Agency is reconsidering water for Klamath salmon

BY JEFF BARNARD The Associated Press A federal agency said Friday it is taking another look at releasing water in Northern California’s Klamath Basin to prevent the spread of disease among salmon returning to spawn in drought conditions.

A decision is likely next week following discussions with fisheries biologists and others, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation spokeswoman Janet Sierztutowski said from Sacramento, Calif.

The bureau previously denied a request from the Hoopa Valley Tribe to release water from Lewiston Dam on the Trinity River to prevent the spread of a parasite that attacks salmon in stagnant water, though the bureau said it would release some water if significant numbers of fish started dying.

Tribal scientists have said it would be too late by then.

The idea is that higher flows make it more difficult for the parasite to swim. Once a significant number of fish are attacked, there is no stopping the parasite, known as

SMILE Group provides 4,000 kits a year Continued from Page A1 schools, the Boys & Girls Club, and Head Start.

The group was eventually able to distribute about 2,500 kits per year.

That effort eventually caught the attention of the Community Oregon Foundation and, when they started their Ready to Smile program in 2010, they looked to the local Soroptimist to assist with the new program.

Since then, according to the Soroptimist, they have provided more than 4,000 dental hygiene kits each year.

Originally, they received help assembling them from Baycrest Village and Inland Point. Last year, however, they were able to join forces with Menasha/Campbell Global.

The year after acquiring Menasha in 2008, Campbell Global celebrated its 25th anniversary by giving back to their communities through the creation of Grow the Good.

Ich, short for Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, scientists said.

Tens of thousands of adult salmon died in 2002 in the Klamath and Trinity rivers from disease in low water conditions.

The tribe took their case to Interior Secretary Sally Jewell this week when she was in Redding, Calif., visiting wildfire-fighting facilities, and she agreed to review the situation.

On Thursday, the tribe took bureau Regional Director David Murillo and Deputy Regional Director Pablo Arroyave on a tour of the reservation outside

Arcata, Calif..

The outing included a jet boat ride on the Trinity River and a visit to the reservoir behind Lewiston Dam, said Tribal Chairwoman Danielle Vigil-Masten. No dead fish were seen but there were lots of algae in the warm, stagnant water.

“I think they got an eyeopener,” she said.

Tribal members were going to Sacramento on Tuesday to hold a vigil outside bureau offices, she said.

Since the 1960s, some water from the Trinity has been pumped over the mountains to the Central Valley of California for irrigation.

According to the company, each year, every Campbell global office is given a designated amount of “seed money.” The goal is to grow that seed money and use it in new and creative ways to improve the lives of people in their communities.

“It looked like a good project for us,” Ron Ray, with Campbell Global, said. “We could take our seed money and buy products for their packets. Then we can grow that seed money as one of our projects here.”

Elaine Soroptimist’s Raper said joining forces with Campbell Global was a perfect match, particularly, since they don’t just contribute to the supplies.

“We’re just the manpower today,” Ray said Thursday, as the teamed to assemble more than 1,000 kits.

“It was the perfect match,” Raper added. “We come together and put the packages together, so they are ready to give to the school kids.”

The kits include toothbrush with a covering cap, toothpaste and dental floss.

The policy, said school board and policy committee member Deb Reid, says the PLC should do something it’s designed to do anyway — discuss curriculum, “build consensus around the subject matter,” and submit its proposal as a group — rather than a solo teacher submitting a request to only the principal.

According to the revised policy,the Curriculum Review Committee “will test the topic by asking these four questions.”

■ Is the topic appropriate to the student’s maturity level (emotional, intellectual, and social capacities)?

■ What is the approach to instruction?

■ What instructional materials will be used?

“I’m here to try to check on my home loan,” said David Scherer, a veteran who was in the Air Force for nine years.

New to the event was a table for veterans’ children.

Kim Rollins, Essential Services, Housing Case Manager and Health Services Coordinator for Oregon Coast Community Action, provided a table of arts and crafts, as well as face painting.

“I noticed the kids didn’t have anything last year,” Rollins said. “It’s something they can take home with them.”

Berta Balli, who helped

run the Veterans Affairs table, was impressed with the outpouring of help.

“There’s a lot of community support,” Balli said.

Roy Morris, on the event’s planning committee and with the State of Oregon Employment Department, felt the Stand Down was vital.

“It’s really important,” Morris said. “It provides access to services at least one day a year.”

Jennings worried the new process makes teachers jump through too many hoops.

“The point we keep hearing back from people is we should be having these conversations in PLCs anyway,” Reid said.“It should not be an additional request asked of the teacher.

It’s just administration pulling more people together to review these ideas.”

Board member Julianna Seldon said if she were a teacher and looked at the policy, “I would go, ‘I give up.’”

“I have a little concern that we’re doing what we didn’t want to do, which is squash that enthusiasm for someone who wants to do something new,” Seldon said.“To me,you have teachers and staff who we’ve entrusted to teach our children and we’ve said these people do a good job.”

Seldon said she would prefer the process stop with the PLC, unless those teachers can’t reach a decision.

Yester said this wouldn’t force the issue through two

committees, as it would be discussed during regularly scheduled PLC meetings.

“I do worry that ... people won’t even try, because it’s a process,” said board chair Megan Jacquot. “I hope staff doesn’t get the idea that we don’t want them to teach things that are controversial or hard to deal with, because that’s exactly what we want our honors students to be learning.

“I really don’t want us to be the school district teaching out of the 1950s because that’s what's comfortable for people.”

Despite concerns, the school board unanimously approved and adopted the revised policy, noting it will be reviewed in a year to make sure it was implemented as intended.

Helfrich recalls mom as ‘tough’

BY JOHN GUNTHER The World

COOS BAY — It’s not uncommon for football coaches to refer to their players as tough.

Mark Helfrich used the same term as the quality that best described his mom.

Linda Helfrich, who was a beloved teacher and sports mom long before her son became Oregon’s head football coach, died this week.

“Without question, she is the toughest person I’ve ever known,” Mark Helfrich said.

Linda Helfrich, like her two sisters, suffered from Huntington’s disease, a genetic disorder that has no cure.

In Coos Bay, she spent her career as an elementary school teacher. And she spent countless hours supporting her sons Mark and John in their sports and other activities.

“We will miss her caring nature, her competitiveness and her great sense of humor,” Mark Helfrich said.

Both Mark and John, the older of the two brothers, were able to come to town to see their mom before she died.

John, who is in town for a class reunion, is staying with former Marshfield football coach Kent Wigle, who was a mentor for Mark Helfrich and a close friend of Mike Helfrich, the boys’ father and Linda’s husband, who died nearly three years ago.

Since arriving in town, John has golfed with Wigle and been fishing with Bill Lilley, another of Mike’s close friends.

“We are blessed by the support of so many friends, and we thank them during this tough time,” Mark said.

Mike Helfrich was a wellknown figure in the Bay Area, involved in many community organizations and a big sports fan, in addition to being an assistant coach under Wigle for many years.

Linda was the supportive wife and classic “soccer mom.”

“They were both really good people,” Wigle said.

Philadelphia’s Mo’ne Davis delivers a pitch during her team’s 4-0 win over Nashville in a game at the Little League World Series on Friday.

Girl throws two-hit shutout at LLWS SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) — More than six decades after Kathryn “Tubby” Johnston Massar cut off her braids, tucked her hair under her cap and became the first girl to play Little League baseball, she’s delighted to see two girls in the Little League World Series.

“It’s truly amazing. I’m very happy to see girls playing,” said Massar, 78, of Yuba City, California.

Canada’s Emma March and Philadelphia’s Mo’ne Davis became the 17th and 18th girls to play in the tournament Friday. It is only the third time in the event’s 68-year history that two girls are playing in the same series.

Davis threw a two-hitter to help Philadelphia beat Nashville 4-0. She had eight strikeouts and didn’t walk a batter.

Davis, who received a noticeably louder reception than any other player during introductions, said she noticed plenty of girls younger than her in the audience.

The applause heightened significantly when Davis struck out the final batter, becoming the first girl to throw a shutout in Little League World Series history.

“It’s very unreal. I never thought at the age of 13 I would be a role model,” Davis said.

A young fan shows her support of Philadelphia’s Mo’ne Davis after her team’s win.

“Hopefully, more girls play Little League.”

March did not fare as well.

Batting cleanup ahead of her brother — Evan — and playing first base, she went hitless Friday in Canada’s 4-3 loss to Mexico.

But March created some excitement when she stepped into the batter’s box for the Vancouver, British Columbia, team.

She drove a long fly ball to right field in the fourth inning that the crowd thought might be a home

run. However, the hit sailed foul into the stands. Then in the top of the fifth, March stepped to the plate with the bases loaded and Canada down by two runs. After working the count to 2-2, she struck out looking on a pitch that caught the outside corner.

As March trotted back to the dugout, the crowd let the umpire know its opinion of the call as boos reigned down from the stands.

Practice starts Monday

BY ANNE M. PETERSON CORVALLIS — The usually unshakable Michael Doctor was a tiny bit nervous.

After his senior season was cut short early by a fractured left ankle, Oregon State asked for another year of eligibility for the outside linebacker.

Having never utilized a redshirt year, Doctor really didn’t have to worry that he’d be granted the medical hardship. But he was still relieved when he got word in March that the Pac-12 greenlighted another season.

“It was on my mind. But I never redshirted. I had a lot of faith, and the coaches kept my spirits up and kept me confident,” he said.

After his long rehab from the injury, Doctor is anxious to get his second chance started for the Beavers, who went 7-6 last year, capped by a 38-23 victory over Boise State in the Hawaii Bowl.

Oregon State had what could only be called an uneven season last year. The Beavers dropped the opener against lower division Eastern Washington, then reeled off six wins before losing five

games, believes more girls will start to play in Little League and beyond. She thinks eventually there will be a woman in Major League Baseball.

Massar played in 1950, leading to a rule barring girls from playing.

That rule was overturned in 1974.

The self-described “trailblazer” said she celebrates her role in history.

“It’s something I’m proud of,” she said. “Why not play baseball with the boys?”

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett was in South Williamsport on Friday and watched Davis’ dominating performance.

“There’s a lot of pressure on her, and she seems to be handling it very, very well for her age,” Corbertt said during the Philadelphia game, adding that the 13-year-old has a nice delivery. “It goes to show you how sports have moved the last 30 or 40 years, and we wouldn’t have thought of this 40 or 50 years ago.

And today, she’s out there pitching, doing a great job and I’m sitting there thinking, ‘Is she going to go into professional baseball?’ I don’t know.

“She’s played as well as any kid out there right now.”

Sports Patriots outscore Eagles FOXBOROUGH, Mass.

(AP) — Tom Brady threw a touchdown pass after sitting out the first preseason game and the New England Patriots capitalized on four turnovers to beat the Philadelphia Eagles 42-35 on Friday night.

Brady’s backups also were sharp in their competition for the No. 2 quarterback job.

Rookie Jimmy Garoppolo threw two touchdown passes, and Ryan Mallett passed and ran for scores.

Brady’s scoring pass came after he threw an interception that Cory Williams returned 77 yards for a touchdown. Williams hurt his hamstring on the play and didn’t return.

The Patriots (1-1) tied it on their next possession on Brady’s 15-yard pass to Kenbrell Thompkins. Brady was 8 of 10 for 81 yards in two series. Garoppolo threw scoring passes on his first two series, a 15-yarder to James Develin and a 4-yarder to Brandon LaFell for a 21-7 lead.

The Eagles (0-2) tied it at 21 with two scoring passes in the last four minutes of the half, a 6-yarder from Nick Foles to Zach Ertz and a 6yarder from Mark Sanchez to Arrelious Benn.

It was 28-28 before touchdowns by two free agents, a 17-yard catch by Brian Tyms from Mallett and a 10-yard run by Roy Finch gave the Patriots a 42-28 lead in the third quarter.

Barkley’s 27-yard scoring pass to Henry Josey cut the lead to seven points on the last play of the third quarter.

The Eagles drove to the 1, but were stopped on fourth down with 4:39 to go.

Seahawks 41, Chargers 14: Russell Wilson’s first appearance at home since hoisting the Lombardi Trophy looked very similar to Seattle’s Super Bowl domination even in a limited performance.

Wilson threw for 121 yards and ran for two touchdowns, leading Seattle to scores on all four of his possessions and the Seahawks beat the San Diego Chargers 41-14 on Friday night.

The Associated Press

New England Patriots quarterback Ryan Mallett (15) passes as Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Brandon Graham (55) closes in during the second half Friday in Foxborough, Mass. The Patriots won 42-35.

Wilson did a little of everything. He was pressured on the first snap of the game and avoided it to complete a pass. He scrambled when the pressure created clear running lanes. He threw sharp passes to open receivers and he operated Seattle’s offense with an efficiency missing in its preseason opener at Denver.

Wilson did what’s become expected.

Wilson completed 11 of 13 passes, and connected on his first eight attempts. He ran for another 31 yards as Seattle finished the first half with 260 yards of offense, 255 of those with Wilson at quarterback.

Marshawn Lynch made his preseason debut for all of two plays before giving way to backups Robert Turbin and Christine Michael. Lynch held out of the first week of training camp and did not touch the ball in his two snaps. Seattle did get some of its other stars involved, including Percy Harvin who had four receptions for 31 yards after catching five passes all of last season.

Turbin finished with 81 yards on 12 carries. Turbin showed open-field speed cutting back on the defense and racing for 47 yards on one carry, and displayed power bulling in for a 1-yard touchdown.

Bears TE out for season LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — Chicago Bears tight end Zach Miller has been placed on season-ending injured reserve because of the foot injury he suffered in Thursday’s 20-19 preseason victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Miller left the game early and never returned. He had six catches for 68 yards and two touchdowns in the preseason opener as he tried to make the team as a third tight end behind starter Martellus Bennett and backup Dante Rosario.

The Bears added former Redskins wide receiver Kofi Hughes to the roster to fill Miller’s spot.

There was no update from coach Marc Trestman on the ankle injury suffered by rookie cornerback Kyle Fuller.

Drew Brees resting his sore abdomen, Luke McCown started for New Orleans (2-0) and threw both of scoring passes to Graham. However, Graham’s celebrations drew penalty flags, and coach Sean Payton appeared annoyed after the second one, barking in Graham’s direction.

Ryan Griffin also had two TD passes for New Orleans.

Titans starter Jake Locker was 8 of 10 for 75 yards and a touchdown to Justin Hunter.

Raiders 27, Lions 26: Matthew Stafford threw touchdown passes on his first two drives for Detroit before Matt McGloin threw a 19-yard TD pass to Brice Butler with 6 seconds to go to give Oakland a victory over the Lions.

McGloin came in after backup Derek Carr left with injured ribs earlier in the fourth quarter and led the game-winning 68-yard drive. The victory for

Thursday’s game Bears 20, Jaguars 19: Chad Henne passed for 130 yards and a touchdown, and Blake Bortles threw for 160 in relief before backup quarterback Jordan Palmer rallied Chicago to a preseason victory over Jacksonville.

Palmer, trying to beat out Jimmy Clausen for the No. 2 job, led Chicago to two fourth-quarter touchdowns.

Senorise Perry scored on a 5yard run with 50 seconds left, and C.J. Wilson intercepted a pass to seal the win after Henne and Bortles picked the Bears apart.

Jared Allen made his first appearance for Chicago. The star offseason acquisition finished with one tackle for a loss on an otherwise quiet night.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets rookie wide receiver Jalen Saunders was involved in a single-car accident early Friday and hospitalized.

The team announced Saunders, a fourth-round pick, was on his way to the Jets’ practice facility at the time of the accident. There was no immediate word on Saunders’ condition, but the Jets say he won’t travel with the team for their preseason game at Cincinnati on Saturday night.

The team did not release additional details of the accident.

The speedy Saunders, the 104th pick overall out of Oklahoma, is expected to compete for a role as a backup receiver and punt returner. He returned two punts for 11 yards in the preseason opener against Indianapolis last week.

but supportive.”

Jenkins said Notre Dame has notified the NCAA about the inquiry. Because of potential violations, the four players can’t compete until the conclusion of the investigation and the university honor code process.

Jenkins said during a news conference that no student has been judged responsible for “academic dishonesty.”

“Nobody has been dismissed,” Jenkins said.

Jenkins said there is no timetable about how long the investigation will take.

“We will take as long as it takes to have a thorough and fair investigation and proceed through our academic honor code process.”

He said such investigations at Notre Dame aren’t common “but it happens.”

The university also is investigating if other students also are involved. Jenkins said it was too early to say if the four players acted together.

Jenkins said if it is found they violated the school’s honor code the penalties could range from an F on an assignment, to an F in the course to dismissal from school. The penalty would be decided by an honor committee.

Swarbrick said the players have not been suspended. He said they remain grant-in-aid students and have access to athletic facilities and resources.

Jenkins said evidence students had submitted papers and homework that had been written for them by others was initially detected at the end of the summer session.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame barred four football players from practice and games Friday, announcing an investigation into “suspected academic dishonesty” after allegations surfaced that someone had done course work for them.

The group includes KeiVarae Russell, the team’s best cornerback, leading returning receiver DaVaris Daniels, and defensive end Ishaq Williams, expected to be a key contributor on the line.

Backup linebacker Kendall Moore is also being held out of practice during the investigation.

The Fighting Irish are now facing the possibility that a second straight season could be affected by academic misconduct issues.

Last year, quarterback Everett Golson missed the season after being suspended from school for what he called he called poor academic judgment. The Irish finished 9-4 behind Tommy Rees, but coming off an appearance in the BCS title game in 2012 it was a step back.

Golson has returned, but now coach Brian Kelly could be scrambling to fill holes before opening his fifth season in South Bend at home against Rice on Aug. 30.

Athletic director Jack Swarbrick said Kelly was “devastated” by the news.

The 10th overall pick in 2011, Gabbert is listed ahead of Johnson on the depth chart, but is coming off a rough debut with the 49ers.

He completed only 3 of 11 passes for 20 yards. He was also intercepted once, drawing criticism from the media and fans.

Johnson completed 6 of 8 for 63 yards.

Harbaugh, however, insisted he likes the progress being made by Gabbert, who was traded to the 49ers in the offseason after three injuryfilled seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

“It was a good first step,” Harbaugh said. “He’s continuing to compete well. I feel good with the way he’s coming along.”

Still, Harbaugh stopped short of saying the backup job is Gabbert’s to lose.

Johnson, a fifth-round draft pick by Tampa Bay in 2008 played at Stanford when Harbaugh coached the Cardinal.

One player who won’t be playing at all is running back Marcus Lattimore. The 2013 fourth-round draft pick has been “making gains” according to Harbaugh, but remains on the team’s non-football injury list.

Lattimore spent his rookie season on injured reserve after tearing three major ligaments in his left knee in October 2012. He was expected to compete for a backup job behind Frank Gore, but strained a hamstring during offseason workouts.

SANTA CLARA, Calif.

(AP) — 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick isn’t likely to play more than a series or two when San Francisco plays its first preseason game at newly finished Levi’s Stadium.

Kaepernick completed his only pass and led San Francisco to a field goal in his only series of work in last week’s 23-3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Backups Blaine Gabbert and Josh Johnson split the majority of playing time the rest of the way. McLeod Bethel-Thompson mopped up in the fourth quarter.

Coach Jim Harbaugh said the plan will be the same when the 49ers host the Denver Broncos on Sunday.

“It’s going to be the same plan going into this game,” Harbaugh said Friday. “I can’t just say the starters are playing this amount or the starters on defense are playing this amount or certain backups are playing this amount. It’s more individualized to each player, each position.”

Teams generally play their starters longer each week through the first three preseason games then back off in the fourth game.

With his team having practiced with the Ravens in the days leading up to the preseason opener, Harbaugh isn’t as pressed to play his starters as he might have been.

That means Gabbert and Johnson will get extended looks as they continue competing for the backup job.

NASCAR adds rule that drivers can’t leave cars

Gordon breaks record BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — The numbers keep climbing — and this time the rise was anything but gradual.

Jeff Gordon set the track qualifying record at Michigan International Speedway on Friday with a speed of 206.558 mph, winning his 76th career pole in NASCAR’s Sprint Cup series. Gordon broke the previous mark of 204.557 by a remarkable margin — and that record was set just two months ago by Kevin Harvick.

Speeds at MIS have been climbing ever since the twomile oval was repaved before the 2012 season. When Marcos Ambrose reached 203.241 that year, it was the first time anyone won a pole at over 200 mph since Bill Elliott did it in 1987, before horsepower-sapping restrictor plates were introduced at Talladega and Daytona. Joey Logano broke Ambrose’s record last August, only for Harvick and Gordon to keep pushing it higher.

“I don’t know where to start,” Gordon said. “You can point at the repaving of the racetrack. This track is smooth — has a tremendous amount of surface area where the tire can get a lot of grip to it. The next thing is the cars.”

Gordon’s run Friday was the seventh-fastest polewinning speed in the history of NASCAR’s top series.

The Associated Press

Jeff Gordon celebrates after winning the pole for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at Michigan International Speedway on Friday.

NASCAR overhauled its qualifying process before this season, switching to a knockout format similar to Formula One and IndyCar. NASCAR now uses three rounds of 1 qualifying at tracks 1 ⁄4 miles in length or larger. The entire field has 25 minutes to post their fastest single lap and the top 24 advance to the second round.

The second segment lasts 10 minutes, and the fastest 12 advance to a final, 5-minute round.

There have been 17 qualifying records set this season, so this is not simply an MIS phenomenon.

“It has nothing to do with the racetrack picking up speed,” said Logano, who qualified second behind Gordon. “It has (to do with) what we’ve been doing to the race cars to go faster. ... I believe it’s cooler out, too. So I think between those two things, that’s why we went faster again, but the racetrack itself isn’t picking up speed.

The racetrack, if anything, is maintaining to getting slower. But it’s widening out, so it’s becoming a better race.”

It was Gordon’s second pole of the season. He also qualified first last week at Watkins Glen but finished 34th,giving up the series points lead to Dale Earnhardt Jr. Not everyone took advantage of the favorable conditions at MIS. Earnhardt and Johnson failed to advance out of the first round of qualifying. Earnhardt was 25th and Johnson 30th.

Johnson, who won at Michigan in June, has finished out of the top 10 in the last five races — and 28th or lower in four of them.

“We’ve just had a vibration with our car, really a shake, a violent shake through the corner,” Johnson said. “We’ve been trying to get to the bottom of it. We made it better, and it certainly went faster, but just not enough. We’ll go back to the drawing board.”

Del Potro will miss U.S. Open NEW YORK (AP) — Past U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro pulled out of the year’s last Grand Slam tournament Friday because he’s still recovering from

wrist surgery.

Del Potro, who beat Roger Federer in the 2009 final at Flushing Meadows, has not played a match on tour since February. His operation was

in March.

The 25-year-old Argentine is ranked 11th. The U.S. Tennis Association said his spot in the main draw was taken by 88thranked Simone Bolelli of Italy.

BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — Even Jimmie Johnson has a temper — one that was on display long before he became a six-time champion and one of NASCAR’s most respected drivers.

“I guess the one experience that comes to mind for me in Cup was maybe my rookie year at Bristol,” he said. “Robby Gordon wrecked me on a restart, and I got out and shot him the bird.”

NASCAR has thrived for years thanks to the personalities of some of its biggest stars and that includes an occasional feud, gesture or angry encounter on the track.

But less than a week after Kevin Ward Jr. was killed during a sprint car race in New York after being struck by a car driven by Tony Stewart, NASCAR on Friday barred its drivers from approaching the track or moving cars after an incident during the race.

“Through time you have to recognize when you get a reminder or tap on the shoulder, something that may need to be addressed,” said Robin Pemberton, NASCAR’s vice president of competition and racing development.

“This is one of those times where we look outside our sport and we look at other things, and we feel like it was time to address this.”

Johnson said he supports NASCAR’s rule addition. The father of two also has a slightly different perspective now on his “salute” to Gordon all those years ago.

“I’m sure I picked up a few fans and lost a few fans,” he said. “Now, as a parent, if my child’s hero was out there shooting the bird to another ballplayer, baseball player or

football player or whatever it was, I’d probably try to steer my kids away from that. So, it depends. I don’t think that entertainment value should come with any safety implications. Safety is the No. 1 priority for drivers, crew members, and the officials that are out there on the race track. And if it turns a few fans off, then in my opinion, they’re a fan for the wrong reason.”

The new rule takes effect immediately and applies to all NASCAR series.

“Really, we’re formalizing rules that have been there,” Pemberton said. “It’s reminders that take place during drivers meetings with drivers about on-track accidents.”

IndyCar reviewed its safety guidelines after Ward’s death and the protocol is similar to what NASCAR announced Friday, IndyCar spokesman Mike Kitchel said. Drivers are supposed to stay put until a safety team arrives unless there is a fire or other extenuating circumstances.

It remains to be seen how NASCAR will enforce its provision, and how much the threat of penalties will deter drivers in the heat of the moment.

“There’s still going to be confrontations out there and that’s never going to change.

People will still get mad at each other,” Joey Logano said. “You’ve got to keep the big picture of staying safe out there and somehow controlling your emotions.”

Last Saturday, Stewart’s car struck Ward during a in race sprint car Canandaigua, New York.

After Stewart’s car appeared to clip Ward’s car, sending it

spinning, Ward left the car during the caution period, walked down the track and was hit by Stewart. His funeral was Thursday.

Stewart, who could face criminal charges, is skipping this weekend’s Sprint Cup race at Michigan International Speedway. He did not race last week at Watkins Glen, a few hours after Ward was killed.

Stewart once threw his helmet at Matt Kenseth’s car.

In 2003, Kevin Harvick climbed on the roof of his car to shout at Ricky Rudd, who had nudged him from behind late in a race. The 1979 Daytona 500 is remembered for a last-lap crash between Donnie Allison and Cale Yarborough as they raced for the lead. The crash led to a three-man fight after Allison’s brother, Bobby, pulled up to the accident scene.

An occasional shouting match or obscene gesture may seem like a harmless frivolity, but Ward’s death underscored the dangers of being on foot near moving race cars.

Johnson said the risk may be higher on dirt tracks.

“A lot of those dirt drivers don’t have spotters. They don’t have radios in the car.

And in a NASCAR event, especially if you’re part of the crash and that guy is mad at you, your spotter is telling you where he is,” Johnson said. “I would just say that hopefully short tracks pick up this philosophy and enforce it. But I don’t know if it will change a driver’s mind as they get out of the race car.

But it would be nice for the rest of the field to know what has happened and if there is a hot-tempered driver on foot.”

Rob Manfred elected next MLB commissioner BALTIMORE (AP) — Rob Manfred was elected baseball’s 10th commissioner Thursday, winning a three-man race to succeed Bud Selig and given a mandate by the tradition-bound sport to recapture young fans and speed play in an era that has seen competition increase and attention spans shrink.

The 55-year-old Manfred, who has worked for Major League Baseball in roles with ever-increasing authority since 1998, will take over from the 80-year-old Selig on Jan. 25. It’s a generational change much like the NBA undertook when Adam Silver, then 51, replaced 71year-old David Stern as commissioner in February. And like Silver, Manfred was his boss’s pick.

Manfred beat out Boston Red Sox Chairman Tom Werner in the first contested vote for a new commissioner in 46 years. The third candi-

date, MLB Executive Vice President of Business Tim Brosnan, withdrew just before the start of balloting.

“I am tremendously honored by the confidence that the owners showed in me today,” Manfred said.

“I have very big shoes to fill.”

Selig has led baseball since September 1992, first as chairman of the sport’s executive council following Fay Vincent’s forced resignation and as commissioner since July 1998. After announcing his intention to retire many times only to change his mind, he said last September that he really, truly planned to depart in January 2015.

One baseball executive who attended the meeting, speaking on condition of anonymity because details of the 4 1/2-hour session were not to be divulged, said Manfred was elected on approximately the sixth ballot. The initial

vote was 20-10 for Manfred, three short of the required three-quarters majority.

His total increased to 21 on the second and 22 on the third. While teams put written ballots into envelopes, keeping their choices secret, from team official speeches it was evident that Tampa Bay’s Stuart Sternberg and Milwaukee’s Mark Attanasio likely switched, the person said.

Manfred’s total dropped to 20, then increased back to 22 before a dinner break. He got the needed 23rd vote on the next, apparently from Washington. Owners then made the final vote unanimous. The person said it appeared Arizona, Boston, the Chicago White Sox, Cincinnati, the Los Angeles Angels, Oakland and Toronto had been the final holdouts.

“What I said to the owners when

I came down after the vote is that I didn’t really want to even think about who was on what side of what issue at points in the process,” Manfred said, “and that my commitment to the owners was that I would work extremely hard day in and day out to convince all 30 of them that they had made a great decision today.”

White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf and Toronto president Paul Beeston spoke out strongly against Manfred, the person said. Angels owner Arte Moreno joined Reinsdorf in leading Werner’s support.

“While Rob may not have been my initial choice for commissioner, the conclusion of a very good process was to name Rob as the person best positioned to help baseball endure and grow even stronger for the next generation of

fans,” Reinsdorf said in a statement.

“Today’s decision was reached by 30 owners voting separately but speaking, in the end, with one voice.”

Werner, who made his career as a television executive, was preferred by those who wanted an owner to follow Selig, who was the longtime head of the Milwaukee Brewers when he took over MLB. “I think the last two days have been productive because we’ve been able to share a number of ideas about the game and how to improve it and modernize it,” Werner said. “I think that Rob agrees with many of the ideas that I espoused, and I am very confident that we are going to see some things, such as improved pace of play.”

Brosnan quit the race when it became apparent he likely had one vote: Cincinnati.

Harper, LaRoche power Nationals WASHINGTON (AP) — Bryce Harper and Adam LaRoche each drove in two runs, leading the Washington Nationals over the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-4 Friday night for their fourth straight win.

Denard Span added three hits as the NL East leaders opened a 10-game homestand.

Justin Upton and Evan Gattis homered off Jason Hammel (1-5) in the second inning. Rookie Phil Gosselin hit a two-run shot, the first homer of his career, off Jesse Chavez in the sixth.

It was a rare power surge for the Braves, who had not scored more than four runs in any of their past six games.

Atlanta had lost 12 of 15.

The AL West-leading A’s have lost three straight and five of six.

Rays 5, Yankees 0: Alex Cobb pitched neatly into the eighth inning and Tampa Bay beat New York to become the fourth team in major league history to reach .500 after falling 18 games under in the same season.

The Rays won their third in a row and sent the Yankees to their fifth straight loss.

Tampa Bay also accomplished the comeback feat in 2004. The 1899 Louisville Colonels and 2006 Florida Marlins also got back to the break-even point after dropping 18 under.

The Rays, now 61-61, were 24-42 on June 10. They are

The Tigers began the day a half-game behind first-place Kansas City in the AL Central.

Rick Porcello (13-8) struggled badly in his first appearance since pitching the final three innings of Detroit’s 19inning loss in Toronto on Sunday. After a five-start stretch in which he had a 1.75 ERA, the 25-year-old righty gave up six runs — five earned — and 10 hits in six innings.

Seattle jumped out to a quick three-run lead in the second.

Following a leadoff single and a hit batter, Morrison and Endy Chavez each hit an RBI single. Chris Taylor bunted for a single, loading the bases with none out, but ex-Tiger Austin Jackson grounded into a double play, helping Porcello to escape only down 3-0.

An inning earlier, Jackson received a long standing ovation when he led off his first game at Comerica Park since the trade-deadline deal that sent him to Seattle and brought ace pitcher David Price to the Tigers.

Cano made it 4-0 with a long homer on the first pitch of the third.

After the Tigers got on the board in the bottom half, Taylor restored the four-run lead with an RBI single in the fourth.

Jared Sprague-Lott hit a three-run home run in the first inning, and Carter Davis had an RBI sacrifice fly in the sixth.

Stuntzner and Tomac shine at world event THE WORLD Local swimmers Denise Stuntzner and Jayna Tomac ended up posting top-10 finishes in all their events at the Masters World Championships in Montreal, capturing one individual title and five Oregon age-group records along the way.

Stuntzner had the biggest highlight, winning the 100meter butterfly in the 50-54 age group. She built a twosecond lead at the turn and held off the other swimmers to win in 1 minute, 12.75 seconds.

Tomac’s best individual event was her last, the 200 breaststroke. She finished fifth and broke the Oregon record for the 40-44 age group in 2:54.65. She was the top American and the four swimmers who beat her — from Bermuda, Australia and Great Britain, are the fastest ever for her age group in the event.

Tomac also set Oregon

records in her other four events. She dropped 17 seconds from her preview best in the 800 freestyle, finishing fourth overall and first for Americans in 10:15.66.

She was sixth in the 100 breaststroke in 1:19.62, improved by five seconds in the 200 individual medley to finish ninth in 2:39.46, and was ninth in the 50 breaststroke in 35.92.

“Competing all week was a challenging task and I knew I would achieve my goals if I would trust my plan,” Tomac said. “I went into every race confidently knowing I was going to meet and exceed my goals. When I thought I didn’t have anything left, I told myself to be fierce and push harder.”

Stuntzner started her meet by placing 10th in the 100 freestyle in 1:06.47. She was fourth in the 200 freestyle in 2:28.72, finished 10th in the 50 butterfly in 32.56 and was eighth in the 200 butterfly in 2:55.96.

“I trained all year for this and am in the best shape of my adult career,” Tomac said.

“Preparing for this world championship took seven to 10 workouts a week in and out of the pool.”

She said highlights of the

Zone competitions week included making friendships with swimmers from all over the world.

“Watching and hearing about other people achieving their goals makes my experiences even more enjoyable,” she said.

Tomac also enjoyed competing against previous Olympic gold medalists and world record holders, including Claudia Poll, who won the 200 freestyle in 1996 to become Costa Rica’s first-

ever Olympic gold medalist.

Stuntzner tied for 10th with German Heike Haendel, who won a world title in the 100 butterfly 20 years ago.

Both women said they were grateful to have a chance to swim in the meet.

“We both had an amazing experience full of significant challenges,” Stuntzner said.

“Knowing how much support our community was giving us made a huge difference.”

HELFRICH From Page B1 Lilley gave Linda Helfrich credit as the person who kept things organized in a hectic household.

“She was always the behind-the-scenes player, but she did everything,” Lilley said.

That included a lot of transportation and cleaning uniforms as Mark and John grew up as multi-sport athletes — John was a soccer and basketball player and golfer and Mark also played basketball, in addition to being Marshfield’s quarterback.

“She liked to attend games and she followed along,” Lilley said. “She was very knowledgeable about whatever sport they were playing.”

That was all while she earned a strong reputation as a teacher, using the same

strengths in the classroom that she employed at home.

“She really liked children,” said Joy Selthon, one of Linda’s closest friends.

“She knew how a good, loving teacher/mother should be. She challenged her kids with academics.”

Linda and Selthon were part of a group of women, also including Marit Pierce, Cindy Bodkin and Wigle’s wife, Susan, who met as teachers at Milner Crest Elementary School and got together every week for years.

“When Milner Crest closed, we just decided that we as a group needed to get together,” Selthon said. “We all got sent to different schools.”

While they were still teaching, the group gathered Friday afternoons at Kaffe 101. After they retired, they switched the weekly date to Monday.

As the disease progressed

and Linda was moved to Baycrest Village, the group felt it was important to keep meeting with her each week.

“When she wasn’t able to get to Kaffe 101 anymore, Sue and Marit and I, and other people, we would go up to take coffee to Linda and take her out of her room and just visit,” Selthon said.

“We went in this last Monday, we knew that was probably our last time to see her,” Selthon said. “We said our goodbyes.”

It was an emotional time, but Selthon also looked at the bright side.

“She’s in a much better place,” she said. “She’s not

suffering anymore.”

Selthon said Linda was proud of her children and her five grandchildren, and decorated her walls at Baycrest with pictures of them.

“After she wasn’t able to really communicate much, you’d say, ‘Oh Linda, you have a new picture,’ (and) she would beam all over the place,” Selthon said.

At Linda’s request, no services are planned at this time.

The family asks that donations, in lieu of flowers, be made to the Helfrich Family Scholarship Fund at Marshfield High School.

DOCTOR

“It’s just an attitude we want to have here. This school has produced great linebackers and we want to continue that tradition,” Doctor said.

“We’ve got a great group of guys. There’s a lot of guys with experience coming back this year. Our coach, he has that mindset, so we want to have that mindset, too.”

Doctor had similar expectations last season. Known for his speed and field vision, he was the team’s leading tackler in 2012 with 83. For his career he has 185 tackles, including 17.5 for loss, and three interceptions.

Doctor broke his ankle in the team’s second game against Hawaii. He heard a crack, but he had no idea it was as serious as it turned out to be.

“I remember it like it was yesterday,” he said.

“Probably about the sixth play of the game. Shot the gap, made the tackle and just got rolled up on. And that was all she wrote.”

While the injury — and the rehab — was more extensive that he first thought, he’s healthy and ready to go now.

“I’m all good,” he said with a smile before jogging off.

From Page B1 Just like last season, he has already been named one of the team captains this year.

He leads a linebacker corps that is strong and experienced. The team returns senior outside linebacker D.J. Alexander and middle linebacker Jabral Johnson.

They’re joined by sophomore linebackers Rommel Mageo and Caleb Saulo along with junior college transfer Kyle Haley.

The whole group shaved their heads for fall camp.

“I think we’ve formed as good a group in total as we’ve ever had,” Beavers coach Mike Riley said. “We’ve always had good linebackers at Oregon State, but these guys together are pretty special.”

Doctor said he wants to bring back Oregon’s State’s “Linebacker U” of a decade or so ago that dominated the conference with players including Nick Barnett, Keith Ellison, Keaton Kristick and current Oregon State linebackers coach Trent Bray.

Hiring a CPA can help your business

Why global turmoil hasn’t sunk US markets. Yet.

BY JOSH BOAK AND BERNARD CONDON The Associated Press NEW YORK — Europe appears on the brink of another recession. Islamic militants have seized Iraqi territory.

Russian troops have massed on the Ukraine border, and the resulting sanctions are disrupting trade. An Ebola outbreak in Africa and Israel’s war in Gaza are contributing to the gloom.

It’s been a grim summer in much of the world. U.S. stocks sagged Friday on reports that Ukrainian troops attacked Russian military vehicles that had crossed the border. But investors in the United States have been shrugging off most of the bad news — so far at least.

A big reason is that five years after the Great Recession officially ended, the U.S. economy is showing a strength and durability that other major nations can only envy. Thanks in part to the Federal Reserve’s ultra-low interest rates, employers have ramped up hiring, factories have boosted production and businesses have been making money.

All of this has cushioned the U.S. economy from the economic damage being suffered abroad. And investors have responded by keeping U.S. stocks near all-time highs.

“We’re in a much better place psychologically,” says Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics. “And it’s allowing us to weather the geopolitical threats much more gracefully.”

Still, the global turmoil comes at a delicate time.

China, the world’s secondbiggest economy, is struggling to contain the fallout from a runaway lending and investment boom that’s powered its growth since before the 2008 financial crisis. The economies of Japan and Germany, the world’s third- and fourth-largest, shrank in the spring. So did Italy’s.

It might not take much — an oil-price spike, a prolonged recession in Europe, a plunge in business or consumer confidence — to derail the global economy.

Here’s a look at the strengths and weaknesses of the U.S economy and others, and why the calm in markets may or may not last:

Strengths More jobs: Hiring in the United States has surged in the first seven months of this year.

Monthly job gains are averaging a solid and steady 230,000, based on government figures. That’s roughly an average of 35,000 more jobs each month compared

The Associated Press

Specialist Jay Woods is reflected in a screen July 3 at his post that shows five years of the Dow Jones industrial average, on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. It’s been a bad news summer, but you wouldn’t know it from the way many investors have reacted. They’ve largely shrugged it off. investors have been pouring money into U.S. Treasurys, long seen as a safe bet in troubled times. The yield on Treasury notes maturing in 10 years, which falls when demand rises, hit 2.3 percent on Friday, its lowest level in more than a year.

Christine Short, a director at S&P Capital IQ, worries that more grim news from abroad could send U.S. stocks tumbling. “Markets are ripe for correction,” she says. “The only question is, What is the catalyst?”

Help from central banks: The Fed has been paring its pace of bond purchases and will end them altogether this fall. The purchases have been intended to hold down longer-term rates and prod consumers and businesses to borrow and spend. But the Fed has stressed that it will keep short-term rates at low levels if unemployment even reaches a level usually linked to rising inflation.

Before raising rates, the Fed wants to see “the whites of the eyes of a real recovery and wage growth,” says Diane Swonk, chief economist at Mesirow Financial.

Many economists project that the Fed won’t lift shortterm rates until mid-2015.

Another plus for economies, at least in the short-term: The Fed’s low-rate policies have influenced other central banks.

The Bank of Japan is buying bonds to stimulate growth and the European Central Bank is facing calls to do so itself.

Threats Foreign exposure: Though the U.S. economy has managed so far to withstand the economic and geopolitical turmoil abroad, it isn’t immune to it.

And the bad news kept coming this past week.

The 18-country eurozone, a key region that emerged from recession last year and accounts for nearly a fifth of global output, failed to grow at all in the second quarter of the year. “The European recovery is faltering,” says Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at BMO Private Bank.

Escalating tension between the West and Russia isn’t helping. Exports from the eurozone to Russia account for less than 1 percent of the region’s economic output.

But Germany, Europe’s largest economy, is vulnerable. It gets nearly all its natural gas from Russia.

The German economy contracted 0.2 percent in the second quarter compared with the previous quarter.

And business confidence in Germany is plummeting.

Tom Stringfellow, chief investment officer at Frost Investment Advisors, says the tit-for-tat sanctions between the West and Russia over Ukraine could push the eurozone over the edge.

“Unless that is resolved quickly, you could see another recession,” he says.

Nearly half of revenue in the companies in the S&P 500 comes from selling abroad. And exports contributed 14 percent of U.S. economic output last year, up

from 9 percent in 2002.

Where are the shoppers: Retail sales stalled in the United States last month.

Wage growth has failed to surpass inflation, leaving many consumers unwilling or unable to spend more.

Sales at auto dealers and department stores fell in July.

Wal-Mart this week cut its profit outlook.

Macy’s trimmed its sales forecast.

“Consumers are finding they can live without a lot of the stuff they used to buy automatically,” says Joel Naroff, president of Naroff Economic Advisors, in a research note. “Right now, people are just not parting with their hard-earned funds.”

It’s not just U.S. consumers who are spending Japan’s economy less. cratered in the April-June quarter, due to a sales tax hike. The economy there shrank 6.8 percent from a year earlier. And shoppers face another sales tax increase in October 2015.

Oil spike: Will fighting in Iraq and Ukraine upend global energy markets, and raise the cost of filling your gas tank and heating your home?

Europe is worried because it gets much of its natural gas from Russia. And Iraq is the second-biggest OPEC oil producer. Before dropping last month, crude oil prices hit a 10-month high in June on news of victories by Islamic State fighters.

One positive to come out of the dire economic situation?

Because so many countries are struggling to grow, demand for oil is restrained.

Bend considers small homes Oregon unemployment to ease rental shortage almost unchanged B USINESS R E P O R T S

BEND (AP) — To ease a rental shortage, the city of Bend is thinking of making it easier for property owners to build accessory dwellings commonly known as mother-in-law apartments.

Such homes are allowed under city code, but the approval process required in older areas of the city makes it simple for a neighbor to block a project.

The proposal from the city’s Affordable Housing Advisory Committee would allow accessory dwellings without a conditional use permit on all lots across the city and increase the cap on size to accommodate twobedroom apartments.

If approved, Bend would be emulating an infill tactic used in Oregon’s largest city.

Property owners in Portland used to build about 30 accessory dwellings each year, but the city received about 200 permit applications for the structures in 2013.

The increase followed a Portland City Council decision in 2010 to waive

Q: Do I need to hire a certified public accountant for my small business?

A: A certified public accountant, or CPA, is a state licensed professional who offers various accounting, auditing, tax, financial analysis, business valuation and consulting services. CPAs must pass the uniform CPA examination, achieve educaDOWN TO tional requirements set by the state and have experience working in a CPA firm ARLENE under the direct SOTO supervision of a qualified licensee to obtain their license. As a licensed professional, a CPA has to adhere to a code of professional ethics.

Many accounting tasks done in a small business do not need to be handled by a CPA but there may be a benefit to using the services provided by a CPA firm. A CPA can perform audit services and attest that financial information adheres to “generally accepted accounting principles,” or GAAP. GAAP are rules and standards set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board to ensure financial information is presented fairly, accurately and in an understandable manner.

This assurance can be beneficial if the business is seeking loans or investment funding. CPAs also can represent clients in case of an Internal Revenue Service audit.

Financial analysis and management advising are also services provided by CPAs. Before hiring a CPA it’s important to ask several questions and get to know the skills and limitations of the person doing the accounting work. Find out how many other businesses this person has worked with in your industry. Ask what the firm’s specialties are (tax, audit, business valuation, etc.). Check with the state Board of Accountancy to be sure the CPA’s license is in good standing. Ask who will actually be doing the work you are contracting with the CPA firm to perform. Ensure you have a clear understanding of work to be performed and what the benefit is to your company. For instance, there is a difference between financial statement preparation, a financial review and a full audit.

Also, when you ask a financial question, are you satisfied you understand the answers you receive?

Make sure you fully understand the cost of services you are having performed, what information you need to provide and when you can expect an answer or a final report or a tax return.

Recordkeeping and tax preparation are required in all businesses. Each small business owner must weigh the advantages and costs for acquiring the accounting services needed.

BUSINESS

with last year.

Fewer people are applying for unemployment benefits.

And fewer new hires are working as temps. Both trends suggest stronger job security.

Economists say the cumulative effect of all those additional paychecks should propel growth and help insulate the U.S. economy from trouble abroad.

Though low-paying industries account for much of the hiring, many economists foresee more jobs coming from higher-wage industries such as construction, engineering and consulting.

Zandi expects monthly job growth to accelerate to an average of 275,000 sometime next year.

Record profits: Earnings at companies in the Standard and Poor’s 500 index are on track to jump 10 percent in the second quarter from a year earlier, according to S&P Capital IQ, a research firm.

That would be the biggest quarterly gain in nearly three years.

That news has helped the S&P 500 index climb 5 percent this year, extending a bull market into its sixth year. The gains have been remarkably steady, too. The stock market hasn’t suffered a “correction” — a drop of 10 percent — in nearly three years, twice as long as is typical.

Still, some markets outside the U.S. are falling.

Japan’s benchmark Nikkei 225 is down 6 percent this year. Germany’s DAX has lost nearly 5 percent, and France’s CAC 40 is down 3 percent.

At the same time, global

development impact fees for three years, in an effort to encourage construction of more small homes. The change allowed homeowners to save as much as $11,000 per project in city fees. City officials later extended the fee waiver through June 2016.

“It’s not too often you hear something come out where Bend wants to be more like Portland,” committee Chairman Andy High told The Bulletin newspaper.

High, the vice president of government affairs for the Central Oregon Builders Association, said it’s the quickest way to boost the rental supply. With a streamlined process, he predicted people could build these small homes in as little as two months. The Bend proposal, so far, does not include the waiving of any fees for accessory dwellings.

High said the committee will likely present the proposal to the City Council in late September. Earlier this year, City Manager Eric King asked the committee to pitch

ideas to ease the housing shortage.

Planning The Bend Commission has also started to discuss possible changes to the city development code for accessory dwellings.

Commissioner Laura Fritz said residents have expressed concern that it can be expensive to build accessory dwellings, and the new apartments can change the feel of neighborhoods.

Fritz said she heard “mostly concern about the integrity of the neighborhood, and getting a big (accessory dwelling) over a garage that is then looking down over this smaller property’s yard, so the privacy is lost.”

Jim Landin, an architect and member of the affordable housing committee, said he believes the real reason some people object to the accessory dwellings is that they will be occupied by renters, and some property owners worry renters won’t care as much about the neighborhood.

C

Oregon’s jobs situation remained stagnant in July.

Overall, seasonally adjusted nonfarm payroll employment only recovered 200 jobs following a loss of 3,000 in June, according to the Oregon Employment Department.

Manufacturing, health care and social assistance grew significantly though, adding more than 1,000 jobs each. But retail trade and private educational services pulled in the other direction, both losing more than 1,000 jobs each.

Since the manufacturing industry hit a low of 162,500 employed in October 2009, jobs have been steadily added back, growing to 180,400 in July.

The employment department found that health care is one of the fastest growing economic sectors in Oregon, adding 8,100 jobs over the last year. One of its component industries, social assistance, reached 31,900

employed last month.

Unemployment increased slightly in July, moving up to 6.9 percent from June’s 6.8 percent.

That flat rate has continFebruary, ued since though it’s a percentage point lower than July last year.

Use garden harvest for fruit or green smoothies

BY DEAN FOSDICK The Associated Press Smoothies are a nutritious way to stir things up in the kitchen, especially if the ingredients come from your garden.

Few drinks are as refreshing as fresh or frozen fruits

and syrups mixed with milk and yogurt. Many people also add greens.

“Follow the harvest and work with whatever is ripening,” said Nan Chase, who with DeNeice Guest wrote the new “Drink the Harvest” (Storey Publishing). “We get into canning. The starting

Smoothies are easy to make. All that’s required is a blender, some liquid (milk, juices or water), ice cubes (or ice cream), yogurt, fruits and greens.

Strawberries, blueberries, peaches and blackberries are great

Living roofs take root in wine country

BY MICHELLE LOCKE The Associated Press

NAPA, Calif.— It’s a warm day in the Napa Valley and the summer sun that turns the region’s plump grapes into prized cabernet sauvignon is beating down on the Odette Estate winery.

But inside the winery’s production facility, temperatures are pleasant — with nary a whisper of air conditioning.

The reason is Odette Estate’s innovative roof, which combines 8,500 square feet of planted, living roof with 2,500 square feet of solar panels.

“It’s really cool working underneath something you know is helping the environment and not impacting it in a negative way,” says Christian Oggenfuss, director of marketing for Odette Estate. “I’m pretty proud, actually, that this spot right now is greener than it was when we started.”

Odette Estate, which opened recently, is part of a

small but blossoming trend of green-roofed wineries.

In Sonoma County, next door to the Napa Valley, Hamel Family Wines has a living roof on top of its production facility, part of a 124-acre property with panoramic views of the Sonoma Valley. In Oregon wine country, the Sokol Blosser winery has a greenroofed tasting room.

Further afield, there are wineries with green roofs in New Zealand, including Mt. Difficulty winery in New Zealand’s Central Otago growing region, near Queenstown. And Antinori Chianti Classico Cellars in Italy’s Tuscany region has grape vines growing on its roof, which is built into a hillside. The cellars took seven years to create, and were designed with the goals of having a low environmental impact and saving energy.

Green roofs make sense for wineries, but they’re also catching on for other commercial uses, says Stephen Peck, founder and president

of the trade association Green Roofs for Healthy Cities, based in Toronto.

The group estimates that in 2013 there were more than 20 million square feet of green roofs installed in North America.

Green roofs have to be designed to suit their climate, but they can go just about anywhere, from the Yukon to the tropics, says Peck.

And while most green roofs top commercial, industrial and institutional buildings or high-end homes, there are some single-family homes with modest versions of green roofs.

In cities made hotter by black asphalt and black roofs, a green roof lets some of the heat out and can also provide a place to relax or grow food.

The type of plants used on roofs depends on how deep the soil is. Low-maintenance plants that can handle hot, dry conditions can thrive in about 6 inches of soil; roofs

My yard is for the birds It seems I have become a bird-watcher.

Don’t get me wrong.

I don’t have binoculars dangling from my neck, and I don’t carry a little notebook.

I do not wear baggy khaki shorts, nor a jacket with ‘leventy-seven pockets.

(That, at least, is how I imagine a “real” birdwatcher is tricked out — based on dozens of 1960s sitcoms.)

But I do spend a lot of time in the backyard and tending the gardens, and there’s seldom anyone to keep me company except the birds.

And the bunnies. But that’s another story.

This past spring, a very cranky momma robin screamed at me whenever I dared to weed the big flower garden. I guess I was venturing too close to the three blue eggs she was tending in the nest on top of my electric meter.

Whether the same robin builds that nest every year I don’t know, but there’s always one there. It’s a pretty good spot — sheltered from the rain by my deep eaves, out of the wind and convenient to fertile worm-hunting grounds.

After the nests have been abandoned, I pass them along to deserving neighborhood children whose weekly assignment is coming up with something — anything — for show-and-tell (amazing they’re still doing that, huh?). You can bring in only so many Pretty Ponies.

On the matter of worms, I sat in my hot tub one after-

noon in late June as a cardinal and a starling battled over hunting rights to my backyard. There was a great deal of hopping and fluttering, strutting and chirping.

Cardinals are famously shy, preferring the HOUSE dense cover of my neighbor’s pine trees for their nests, so it was no surprise that the noisier, pushier STEVE starling won the BATIE argument.

WORKS

Sometimes on our walks in the park, the dog and I spot a red-tailed hawk riding the thermals. A nesting pair hangs out there.

I was reading on the deck one afternoon while the dog

snuffled around me, hoping against hope to flush one of the bunnies that live under it. They know he can’t get to them, so they just hunker down and giggle little bunny giggles at him.

Not that it matters. He’s never caught even one.

But that day one of the hawks landed on the arch that is our gateway to the park.

Hawks look like any other birds when they’re soaring high over your head, but when one lands, you realize just how BIG they are.

The dog immediately went over to say hello — loudly, which is the only way he knows — and the bird merely looked down at him, trying to decide, I assume, whether he was small enough to carry off.

Apparently, he wasn’t. The hawk took off a few moments later to look for bunnies.

Religion

Papal visit underscores religious divide in Koreas TOKYO (AP) — Yes, North Korea has Catholics. It even has a Catholic church.

But while Pope Francis is being welcomed by millions of South Korean Catholics, Christianity has been largely quashed north of the border and, as a string of recent arrests suggest, would-be missionaries there face severe risks amid a North-South religious divide that is perhaps wider than ever.

The church in North Korea is under tight government control and is not recognized by the Vatican. Indeed, services there would be hardly recognizable as Catholic

to outsiders.

Inside North Korea’s one cathedral are crosses, but no crucifixes.

Weekly services feature hymns and prayers offered in a highly formalized manner,but there are no sacraments.

Nor are there priests: Stateappointed laymen officiate services.

Officials in Pyongyang had no immediate comment on Francis’ five-day South Korea visit. Just an hour before the pope arrived in Seoul on Thursday, North Korea launched three short-range projectiles into the ocean. It later said the timing was meant to mark the anniversary of its liberation from Japan.

A rocket researcher quoted by North Korea’s main news agency dismissed the idea that the launches had anything to do with the pope as “nonsensical.”

“I just wonder why, among all the numerous days of the year ... the Roman pope chose to visit Korea on the day when we carried out the test-firing of our latest tactical rocket,” the Korean Central News Agency quoted Kim In Yong as saying.

North Korea quickly rejected an invitation to join in a peace and reconciliation Mass that Francis will celebrate Monday in Seoul.

The North slapped down the invi-

tation not on religious grounds, but with complaints about South Korea’s participation in military exercises with the United States.

“We feel deeply sorry about the outcome but we will continue to pray for another chance to celebrate the holy Mass with the North Korean faithful,” Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi said.

Compared with South Korea, where there are more than 5 million Catholics, estimates of the size of the North Korean Catholic flock range from 800 to about 3,000.

The lower estimates come from the United Nations Human Rights Com-

mission, which recently cited the lack of religious freedom in the North as one example of its poor human rights record. The higher estimate comes from the Korean Catholic Association, a North Korean government-controlled body that is responsible for all official information about the church and coordinates a weekly service for followers.

Before the advent of the North Korean regime, Pyongyang had more Christians than any other city in Korea and was known as the “Korean Jerusalem.” Seen as fertile ground for missionary work, Pyongyang also had a seated bishop.

Insuring youthful drivers Dear Mary: Our 15-yearold daughter recently got her learner’s permit. I called our auto insurance agent about how to handle this and she told us to add our daughter to our policy, which EVERYDAY we did.

CHEAPSKATE Then we got a bill for an additional premium and paid the bill.

L a te r, we heard that a Mary t e e n Hunt driver with a learner’s permit is already covered under a parent’s (or guardian’s) policy.

Do you think we are being charged an additional premium for coverage we have already? I can’t seem to get a straight answer from the company. — Barbara, California Dear Barbara: According to the Insurance Information Institute, most insurers extend coverage for learners on the customer’s existing policy. However, this is not required by law, so it is difficult to say if your company does or not. However, if they are vague when you inquire, I’d be a little suspicious, myself.

If you think you are being overcharged, ask the company to provide you with a copy of its underwriting policies so you can read them for yourself. If they are unwilling to do this, I believe I would contact my state’s department of insurance for assistance. If you find you’ve been overcharged or feel you’ve been ripped off, contact your local Better Business Bureau as well.

On the other hand, if you find out that your company is unique in that it does not cover youthful learners on your existing policy, you should shop around before your next renewal.

My thought would be that if they are not competitive in this one area of coverage, are they failing to give you the best rates in other areas as well? The only way to find out it is to look around and ask a lot of questions.

Dear Mary: Just a quick note to say thanks for your advice and research. I am not?fastidious about clean carpets, but you sold me on the Hoover Steam Vac (everydaycheapskate.com/steamvac).

My husband and I own a condo that we rent out to folks in ministry, at a reduced rate. That means we don’t have a lot of money available for upkeep and maintenance between occupants.

In getting the place ready for the next occupants, I decided to order the Hoover Steam Vac and give it a try on the carpet following your specific instructions. It was fun because of your advice, method and your excitement about this particular machine. The condo carpets look fabulous! So I brought the machine home to clean my own carpet. I made a schedule and am cleaning the whole house in sections.

Keep up the good work.

You are way better than Consumer Reports! — Shawn, California Dear Shawn: I’ll take that compliment any day of the week. And I’m happy to hear that Hoover worked as well for you as it does for me. It really is the best thing I ever bought.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Patience will be necessary. You will be partly to blame for any problems that develop. Have a heart-to-heart talk with whoever is causing you the most concern.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — The improvements you have in mind will not appeal to everyone. If your plans will affect those close to you, get input and approval before you initiate a change.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Don’t commit to a monetary deal until you have all the facts and figures. Be prepared to test things out as you go. Your attention to minute detail will determine your success.

MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 2014 A change of scenery and new challenges await you this year.

Open lines of communication will help in both your personal and professional dealings. Getting ahead will become easier as your confidence improves. You should concentrate on honing your skills and start believing in your abilities.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You will make lasting and advantageous connections today. Strong communication skills will help you assume a leadership role in an organization or club. Offer your services to those who need them.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Don’t feel obliged to have a discussion about money if you’re not in the mood. Go over any joint financial accounts or agreements carefully.

Refuse to let anyone take advantage of your generosity.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Do something that will exhilarate you physically and challenge you mentally. Taking your mind off your everyday routine will help you adjust the way you move forward.

FREE ADMISSION

SUNDAY, AUGUST 17, 2014 Keeping your emotions in check will prevent you from making costly mistakes this year. Sit back and watch what strategies successful leaders use in their plans. You can come out on top if you learn from the experience of others. Live, learn and take action.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Someone you are close to will discourage you. It will be difficult to make a decision if you are swayed by what others do or say. Don’t feel pressured to make a move.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Attend a networking event to meet someone who could impact your future. Don’t sign contracts or make a commitment. You will do better if you forge ahead on your own.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — You will feel out of control regarding a certain situation. Don’t part with your hard-earned money just because an individual or group is hounding you for donations.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Jealousy and deception will be at the root of a problem that develops.

A lack of trust in a particular situation or person is apparent. Do whatever is necessary to move forward.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — A savvy investment will help ease your financial problems. Use social media or the telephone to conduct your business meetings.

Costly travel arrangements will eat into your profits.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — If you want something done right, you will have to do it yourself. Your peers won’t be able to meet your high standards. A new relationship will take an interesting turn.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — You will end up in a better position than you anticipate. Look closely, and don’t be fooled by appearances. An opportunity is waiting to be discovered.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Love connections are looking good, and a long-term commitment or pledge will make you feel secure.

Keep your assets separate for now.

Joint financial ventures are iffy.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — You will be unnerved by an emotional encounter. Stay in control and defend your position. If you allow yourself to be bullied, you will lose respect and self-esteem.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — It’s time to firmly establish your professional course of action. Put your talents to good use. Your hard work will be wasted if you are not aggressive enough to carry out your plans.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Enhancing your appearance or getting in shape will help increase your chance to get ahead. It’s how you present what you have to offer that will make the difference.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Revisit dreams that used to excite you. Doing so will help provide the incentive to make changes that will increase your earning power. Dig deep into your past to discover relevant information.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — It’s a good day to plan an event. Get family or friends together for a picnic or barbecue. A potluck dinner will ensure that you don’t end up doing all the hard work yourself.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Feeling nostalgic for old friends and days gone by will get you in the mood to reunite with people and places from your past. Looking back will help you make decisions that will change your future.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — It may seem as if everyone wants a piece of you today. Let them know tactfully that you have your own matters to take care of.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Someone may be trying to conceal important information. Be alert to unusual or secretive meetings or discussions, and consider the motives of one who is pressing you for information.

PUBLISHED: The World - August 16, 2014 (ID-20258531) Trustee’s Notice of Sale Reference is made to that certain trust deed made by Kelly D. Kennedy, as grantor to Ticor Title Company, as trustee in favor of Dorothy McEachern Revocable living trust dated 03/31/10, as beneficiary dated October 4, 2010, recorded on October 4, 2010, in the Records of Coos County Oregon, in Volume No. 2010-9057, covering the following described real property situated in that county and state, to-wit:

All that part of the SE1/4 of the NW1/4 of Section 26, Township 29 South, Range 12 West of the Willamette Meridian, Coos County, Oregon, lying South and West of the Oregon State Highway No. 42.

ALSO: All that part of the NE1/4 of the SE1/4 of Section 26, Township 29 South, Range 12 West of the Willamette Meridian, Coos County, Oregon, lying between Oregon State Highway No. 42 and the Middle Fork of the Coquille River.

EXCEPT: That portion conveyed to

State of Oregon, by and through its State Highway Commission by instrument recorded July 19, 1960, in Book 279, Page 528 Deed Records of Coos County, Oregon.

Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the real property to satisfy the obligations secured by the trust deed and a notice of default has been recorded pursuant to Oregon Revised Statutes 86.735 (3); the default for which the foreclosure is made in grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sums: Failure to make monthly payments December, 2013 Through May, 2014, Failure to pay Coos County real property taxes 2013-2014.

By reason of the default just described, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following, to-wit: Principal Balance: $183,417.45, Accured Interest: $5,502.52, Real Property Taxes: $1,945.80 WHEREFORE, notice is hereby given that the undersigned trustee will on September 29, 2014 at the hour of 10:00 o’clock A.M., in accord with the standard of time established by ORS 187.110, at 243 W. Commercial Ave. in the city of Coos Bay, County of Coos, State of Oregon, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash the interest in the real property described above which the grantor had or had power to convey at the time of the execution of the trust deed together which the grantor or grantor’s successors in interest acquired after the execution of the trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of the sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named in ORS 86.753 has the right, at any time prior to five days before the date set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default complained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, and in addition to paying those sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with trustee and attorney fees not exceeding the amounts provided by ORS 86.753.

BRIDGE Groucho Marx said, “Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.”

One of the key defensive skills is reading partner’s lead — working out what he holds in the suit.

In this deal, what should East do?

South is in four hearts and West leads the club jack.

Over West’s one-diamond opening, North had a clear-cut takeout double. Yes, he would have preferred to hold better clubs, but he was 4-4 in the

majors. South’s two-heart jump advance showed some 9-11 points.

Although the diamond queen looked useless, the known eight- or nine-card heart fit was good compensation.Then both North and South were tempted by the vulnerable game bonus.

When West leads the club jack, it denies the queen (we lead the top of touching honors) and the ace (we do not underlead an ace at trick one against a suit contract). So East knows that South holds the club ace and queen. As a consequence, there is no point in third hand high. South is bound to get two club tricks, but why let him capture two honors instead of one?

If East plays an encouraging club eight, West, when in with the heart ace, can lead another club. Then the defenders will take one trick in each suit for down one.

But if East wastes the club king at trick one, when West is next on lead, he cannot play a club without giving South three tricks in the suit. And if West leads another suit, declarer can benefit from the 3-3 spade break to take three spades, four hearts, one diamond and two clubs.

! o G

In construing this notice, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by the trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interst, if any.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: A mysterious force threatens Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the totally captivating second movie adapted from J.K. Rowling’s novels. Harry, Ron and Hermione (Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson) must find out what is causing people known as Mudbloods to become petrified; otherwise, the school will be closed. Robbie Coltrane, Kenneth Branagh and Richard Harris co-star in this 2002 tale.

Sunday 9 p.m. on KCBY Unforgettable: Eliot (Dallas Roberts) is in the spotlight, but for a reason he would prefer not to be, in the new episode “Throwing Shade.” One of his longtime friends, the manager of a mayoral campaign, is slain.

As Carrie and Al (Poppy Montgomery, Dylan Walsh) try to solve the murder, troubling aspects of Eliot’s past surface.

American Ninja Warrior: The final level of the competition fuels the new episode “National Finals in Vegas,” as remaining contestants proceed with an assault on a course that mirrors Japan’s “Mount Midoriyama.” That translates into such challenges as the Piston Road and Silk Slider — with prizes that include $500,000 serving as big encouragement to keep going. Matt Iseman and Akbar Gbaja Biamila are the hosts.

Extant: In “More in Heaven and Earth,” the first of two new episodes airing back-to-back, Molly (Halle Berry) is certain her baby is in the custody of the agency — and she intends to determine where. John (Goran Visnjic) is stunned by technological developments impacting Ethan (Pierce Gagnon).

Tuesday 8 p.m. on KEZI

Beat Bobby Flay: The new episode “Battle of Brooklyn” finds young buck Jordan Andino and industry pro Jennifer Cole-Ruiz fighting for the chance to go up against Bobby Flay, with Food Network chef Anne Burrell and “Chopped” judge Chris Santos deciding the results.

Extreme Weight Loss: It’s never happened before on this series: One weight-losing hopeful gets the boot in the new episode “Kenny & Christy.”

Kenny is a former Marine inspired to improve his physique after tornadoes devastated his Oklahoma hometown. Christy is a relative recluse who cares for her ill mother. The behavior one of them displays ultimately prompts trainer Chris Powell to say farewell to him or her before that person’s goal is reached.
