The current four-member SCCF board chose Keith Tymchuk, Al Pettit and

with Jordan Cove. I’m hesitant to approve that without getting some answers from him.”

Whitty, along with Bill Lansing and Joanne Verger, brought SCCF into the limelight earlier this year.

After several rounds of public meetings and significant changes to the organization’s bylaws, the three resigned in May. Councilor Brian Bowers said even if Combs’ law firm were to represent Jordan Cove, it would have no impact on Combs’ service for SCCF. “They’re two separate groups (Jordan Cove and

SCCF),” Bowers said. “To me, that wouldn’t be a conflict.”

Co u n c i l o r S te p h a nie Kramer reminded the council that if Combs were to find a conflict of interest, he would be required to recuse himself from voting.

Both North Bend and Coos Bay worried about Pettit, since he also ran a write-in campaign for the Coos Bay City Council this fall.

But on Friday, the Coos County Elections Office released its final official canvass, showing Fred Brick won the vacant Coos Bay seat.

C O O S B AY — Five a.m., and it’s time to herd the cats.

Seventy-eight-yearold Gloria Kohl wakes up, gets dressed and heads out the door to her animal shelter across the driveway, checking to see if any carriers with stray cats have been placed at her door.

After feeding about 35 cats, switching out litter boxes, changing and washing cat beds and scrubbing the floors, it’s time to do paperwork.

“This goes on seven days a week,” Kohl said.

For six years, Kohl and her husband, Norman, have run a non-profit, non-kill animal shelter in Coos Bay called Kohl’s Cat House. The shelter takes in feral cats, domesticated cats turned wild, and stray cats to be cared for and fixed.

Kohl also finds homes for adoptable strays.

The shelter has been busy.

“It’s of epidemic proportions,” Kohl said.

“Every single day I get

calls from people. Just got a call of eight kittens dropped at someone’s door.”

Kohl has made it her mission to help solve this problem.

The organization has joined the Coos County Animal Shelter and the nonprofit organization Friends of Coos County Animal Shelter to tackle the stray animal population in the city and surrounding areas.

Kohl said one reason the stray and feral cat population is so high is because of the lack of education in the community. People are not getting their cats fixed, which is a huge problem.

“A female cat can go into heat three times in a year,” Kohl said. “They can have three to six kittens, and you just do the numbers and that’s where your population comes from.”

Kohl said this year has been worse for the stray and feral cat population because of the weather.

LNG plant to be large carbon source

LIVE IT UP EVENT

Kitzhaber has made that a priority by, for example, opposing coal exports from Oregon in part due to potential carbon impacts and pursuing a clean fuel standard to reduce carbon emissions from transportation.

Kitzhaber calls natural gas a valuable transition fuel to greener alternatives, but has yet to weigh in on the carbon impacts of exporting natural gas from the state.

The Legislature created a state Global Warming Commission to recommend ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and its members are appointed by the governor. Chairman Angus Duncan said Jordan Cove will hurt Oregon’s ability to meet its goals.

COOS BAY — The results are in, and Fred Brick is on his way to the Coos Bay City Council.

The Coos County Elections Office released the official canvass of votes from the general election on Friday.

Brick won the fourth vacant city council seat with 324 votes. Two Brick others, Al Pettit and Katherine Flores, also ran write-in campaigns this fall for the seat.

Pettit came away with 249 votes and Flores snagged 54 votes.

Co u n c i l o rs To m L ea hy, Stephanie Kramer and Jennifer Groth easily retained their seats in the Nov. 4 election.

Operators say Jordan Cove would meet state and federal air quality standards for pollutants such as particulates, sulfur dioxide and volatile organic compounds. Jordan Cove officials point out that those emissions would be lower than those from the paper mill that used to occupy the Coos Bay site.

Michael Hinrichs, a spokesman for Jordan Cove, said the company was closely listening to the national and state discussion on carbon and was focused on meeting existing pollution standards that don’t strictly limit carbon.

In 2007, the Legislature set goals for reducing carbon emissions in Oregon. Gov. John

Much of the Jordan Cove emissions would come from energy used to liquefy natural gas so it can be shipped to Asia.

The project would have its own power plant generating 420 megawatts, enough electricity to serve more than 400,000 homes.

Another source, about 20 percent of total emissions, would come from venting carbon dioxide as the natural gas is purified before liquefaction.

The draft environmental impact statement by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission concluded that the Jordan Cove project would have a limited environmental impact that could be reduced to non-significant levels.

PORTLAND (AP) — A proposed liquefied natural gas terminal in Coos Bay would become one of the largest sources of greenhouse gases in Oregon, federal data shows.

The assessment came as the Jordan Cove Energy Project seeks permission to release 2.1 million metric tons of greenhouse gases annually, according to an environmental analysis from energy regulators.

At that level, it would have been Oregon’s second-largest source of greenhouse gases in 2013, based on reports from the emission reports from the state’s major polluters, The Oregonian reported Tuesday.

The largest emitter last year was Portland General Electric’s coal-fired plant at Boardman.

Daily had concerns about Combs, who is an attorney Combs for Whitty, McDaniel, Bodkin and Combs in Coos Bay. “I’m assuming the Whitty in there is John Whitty, which concerns me because John said he was stepping away from it, but there’s obviously still some influence there,” Daily said.

Stars

It was early, cold, and dark when I stepped out of the house on monday morning. I was going to the coffee shop to meet with a couple of guys for a round of solving all of the world’s problems. someone said that when it is cold, the stars seem to be a little brighter. That may be true, but for me, it reminded me why it is such a pleasure living where we do. There are no bright city lights to hide the beauty of the stars in God’s vast universe.

I am reminded of the words of king David, who must have spent thousands of nights out on the Judean hills looking at the stars as he watched over his father’s sheep, “The heavens are telling of the glory of God, and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.”

Whenever I look at God’s world, I am reminded of God’s power. That He merely spoke and the world came into being.

He created a masterpiece and it is all out there for us to enjoy.

But, I am not only reminded of His power when I look at His creation, I am once again made mindful of His presence. David asked a question, “Where can I go from thy spirit, or where can I flee from thy presence?” He was not wanting to escape from God, He was simply saying“wherever I am, you are there.”

When you get the opportunity, step outside and see what God has prepared for you.

Come worship with us sunday.

Opinion Let’s move forward on flag change

Editorial Board Jeff Precourt, Publisher Larry Campbell, Executive Editor

Gail Elber, Copy Editor Ron Jackimowicz, News Editor

Our view The Coos Bay City Council has a good plan for our boardwalk flag display; let’s get on with it.

What do you think?

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

‌The Coos Bay city council this week considered making a major alteration to a downtown display that’s been in place for nearly a quarter of a century – the flags waving above the boardwalk and Central Avenue.

They were an impressive monument when erected in 1991, flags representing 34 nations around the world. They waved as a tribute to those nations and to acknowledge our port as being open to the world.

When the city passed a resolution in 2009 to fly all U.S. flags, the reason seemed right – those

theworldlink.com/news/opinion

American flags would wave above Coos Bay until U.S. military troops were recalled from Iraq and Afghanistan.

If President Barack Obama sticks with his timetable, the majority of those troops should begin leaving the Middle East beginning next year. And, while the U.S. will never pull all the military boots from that ground, it is fair to say that Coos Bay kept its promise and can now look to the future.

A council flag subcommittee has proposed what we think is an excellent idea: to return to international diversity, but also add flags

of entities particularly significant to our region, including flags of the cities of Coos Bay and North Bend, and the flags of the Coquille Tribe and the Confederated Tribes of the Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians. In addition, the committee recommended that we should fly the flag of the Tall Ship Port of Oregon (did you know we even had a Tall Ship Port flag?).

Now granted, this is not the kind of issue that is vital to the existence of Coos Bay. We discussed what’s really important in that respect last week when we talked about the desperate need

for road repairs.

Nevertheless, one could argue that flying these flags is and necessary expression of the city’s soul, and its ability to recognize and respect the world outside our own little island community.

The city council didn’t vote to approve the recommendations at its meeting last Tuesday and wanted to wait for more public input at the next meeting, Dec. 2. While we understand, we don’t think the issue should be left undecided after that day. The city council should approve the recommendation and let the flags fly.

Cheers Jeers

‘Tis the season‌

Yo u c a n t e l l t h e h o l i d a ys a re a p p ro a c h i n g fa s t – plans are in final stages for community Thanksgiving meals, municipal decorations are going up, holiday gift basket drives are on. Seems to come earlier every year, doesn’t it? But hey, we all need to wipe off our Scrooge faces and get festive at least once a year, don’tcha think?

Sewing kindness‌

Speaking of holiday spirit, hats off to the folks who stitch their little fingers o f f eve r y T h u rs day morning at North Bend’s Holy Redeemer Catholic Church.

The volunteers sew hats, slippers, scarves and holiday ornaments to give away during the holidays. This year, with the military pulling out of Afghanistan, the group found itself holding on to 461 holiday stockings. Coincidentally, North Bend police need to come up with holiday giveaways for every kid who shows up to the city’s annual Christmas tree lighting. The linkup between the two was a natural. Spreading the cheer …

Stormy weather‌

The damages keep adding up from that windstorm last month. Coos Bay learned this week that the bill to fix t h e E m p i re b oa t ramp and crab dock will be just under $25,000. The money’s in place to foot the bill, but the work will need to wait for fairer weather forecasts. As our photo caption said on Thursday: “Gulls and other birds are the only creatures using the Empire crab dock …” Bummer.

Spreading the wealth‌

H ow a p p ro p r i ate during the season of giving to get the announcement of grant awards from the Oregon Community Foundation.

The organization awarded more than $91,000 in 11 grants to South Coast nonprofits, including first-time grants from the Small Arts and Culture program. These are like minigrants to nonprofits too small to compete with the big guys. But a few thousand here and there really help smaller groups like the Southern Oregon Kite Festival in Brookings, or Curry Arts in Gold Beach.

Letters to the Editor A waste of good food

‌For the lady who left the cart in North Bend Safeway, Saturday around 11:30, the 15th.

I pushed the cart into the store as it was in the middle of the parking lot—with the box you left in the bottom—took it to customer service—opened it—rotten plums. You had called the store to say you had taken them out of your trunk to make room for your groceries—just for Safeway to throw them away—you had gotten them at the food bank—really!

Bet there was someone that would have used them.

Linda Dean North Bend

Say thanks to the trash men

‌Sometimes we don’t notice the little things that make our life what it is; the things that

make our town a better place to live. We overlook the smiling clerk at the grocery store, or the mail lady that goes out of her way to deliver our mail.

But I am especially noticing our Coos Bay Sanitary trash men. Every Tuesday, rain, shine or holiday, they are on the job. Smiling and waving to me and my barking dog as they dump my trash and wheel my container close to the driveway.

That makes it easier for me to move. Then the recycle guy stops and sorts through my newspapers, cans and bottles all while laughing and talking to me. I have never heard a complaint from our cheerful and helpful guys, no matter the weather.

A town or civilization that can’t handle its rubbish, is soon buried. What would we do without great guys? Give them a wave and a smile the next time you see them!

Katherine Hodgin Coos Bay

At least they got involved

‌Being a fairly nonpolitical type person, seeing all the crap that goes on in the world and in our country sometimes turns my stomach. I vote every election for my say, however I don’t get closely involved. I have watched people who try with all their heart to make things better get raked over the coals about being radical. If you do nothing, you are a leach on society. If you get involved, you are called radical or fringe. So unless you get voted into office, I guess that’s your only choices. If you are voted into office then you are corrupt or a good old boy.

Where is the middle ground?

I would like to commend the people who tried, but failed, to get the Home Rule Charter passed. I read it very carefully and thought it was at least very carefully thought out. Kudos to these brave folks who are trying to look out for “we the people.”

It was a valiant effort, and I

thank you for caring about what happens to the rest of us.

Also, on one other note, the coffee with the cops I think is great. How about extending it to school kids having lunch at school with the officers so they can feel closer with authority figures. Let them see that they are just folks like us who care so much about others that they devote themselves to our protection.

The Democrats’ chronic depression ‌“Smiles at the gas pump,” my local headline reads. The price of gasoline has fallen below $3 a gallon.

When the national average rose last year to $3.51, Rep. Roger Williams, R-Texas, complained that “the liberal anti-free market policies of the Obama administraFroma tion discourage Harrop the exploration of AmeriColumnist can sources of energy and hinder production and job growth.”

Now it’s below $3. By the way, U.S. production of oil and gas is at record levels.

So where is the brass band?

This is a question for Democrats.

And we won’t get a good answer until Democrats shake off their chronic depression.

Democrats tend to internalize the relentless attacks against them. Constantly on the defense, they explain rather

than proclaim. When they ignore their successes and avoid the president who oversaw them, voters think that perhaps the other side has a point.

“You cannot win if you’re afraid,” former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, a Democrat, said after his party’s recent electoral losses.

To be honest, presidents have little power over the price of gasoline. And to be evenhanded, when Barack Obama ran for president in 2008, he blamed $4-a-gallon gas on George W. Bush. Yesteryear’s gas price wasn’t Bush’s doing, and today’s isn’t Obama’s.

But if one’s political foes smash this particular ball over the net, the other side surely has a right to return it under favorable circumstances. If people are smiling at the gas pump, why isn’t the Obama administration smiling with them?

Last year, we heard the baloney that Obama’s reluctance to open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, expand some offshore drilling and back the Keystone XL pipeline had

caused gasoline prices to surge — 86 percent from the day the president took office.

Firstly, Obama started his presidency in the jaws of an economic meltdown. The prices of a lot of things were collapsing then, among them gasoline.

Secondly, from 2002 to 2008, when Bush was president, gasoline prices exploded 397 percent, to $4.11 a gallon. Would anyone have accused George W. of being hostile to energy development?

It was not Obama’s genius but the revolution in drilling technologies that opened up the new production. Nevertheless, under Obama, the United States has replaced Russia as the largest non-OPEC supplier of gas and oil.

Sadly, Obama has never been much for cheerleading, an important skill for a president.

He never mastered the art of the bully pulpit. Democrats are justifiably frustrated by these failings.

But this habit of abandoning their president under assault by the right-wing noise machine

is nothing new. Recall the 2000 presidential campaign, when Democratic candidate Al Gore distanced himself from the sitting president, Bill Clinton.

Never mind that Democrats had made significant gains in the midterms after the scandal broke. Never mind that Clinton would leave office with a higher approval rating than did Ronald Reagan.

Fast-forward to today.

Unemployment has fallen below 6 percent. Stocks are hitting all-time highs. And the deficit has been cut by more than half in less than six years.

It’s true that Americans in the middle and lower economic tiers still suffer from stagnant wages, but Democrats could tell them: “You’re next. This recovering economy is set to serve you. And don’t forget that you now have the security of guaranteed health coverage.”

But Democrats don’t talk that way. What a depressed lot they’ve become.

Local Talk to parents of OCD fears ‌ EAR ABBY: I’m 13 D and I’m afraid I may have OCD. I want to find out, but what’s standing in my way is that sometimes my parents think I make stuff up to get attention. I’m afraid to tell them, but I know if I do, it will answer my question. Can you give me some advice? — ANONYMOUS IN OHIO

D E A R A N O N YMOUS: Be brave and talk to your parents about your fears. They are your best friends, and you should be able to talk to them about anything — particularly anything that bothers you. However, before you do, make Dear a list of the behaviors bby that cause you to think you may have OCD, and when you approach them, read them Jeanne what’s on Phillips i t . T h a t w a y, i f you become nervous, you won’t forget anything.

D E A R A B BY : My daughter and her boyfriend have been dating for three years. They are now in their first year of college and she gets upset when he texts other girls and Snapchats them. He makes her feel like she’s overreacting, but I can understand her fears that he is being unfaithful.

What do you think about social networking and how it can affect relationships and even marriage? — WISE MOM IN

A

NORTH CAROLINA

DEAR WISE MOM: If someone wants to be unfaithful, social networking makes it easier than ever. But men and women who are ready to settle down and make a commitment do not look for outside adventures, no matter how they go about it.

If your daughter is insecure about what her boyfriend is doing, she may have good reason. If she’s right about her hunches, the time has come for BOTH of them to meet and date other people.

Because she has spent so much of her teens with only this young man, the prospect may frighten her. But please explain that this will be her chance to mature and grow. As a “Wise Mom,” I’m sure you can get the message across.

DEAR ABBY: My children were over at my inlaws’ recently. When we came to pick them up, they told us their cat had scratched our son. Sure enough, there were five scratch marks on his face, circling his left eye.

In the past we have recommended they have the cat declawed so this wouldn’t happen. They told us that cats can make mistakes just like kids do.

We do not share their opinion. Would it be unreasonable to not allow our kids to be over there unless they declaw that cat? — “DISCATIFIED” IN WISCONSIN

DEAR “DISCATIFIED”: Cats do not normally “attack” children out of nowhere. Before you insist they declaw their pet, perhaps you should investigate what led up to your child being scratched.

Could your child have done something that caused the animal to react defensively? If that might be the case, then your son should be taught about the proper handling of animals, because declawing a cat is not minor surgery.

It’s like having the tips of one’s fingers amputated, and some cities have outlawed the practice.

Obituary James Stackpole

‌Dec. 12, 1943—Oct. 6, 2014

A celebration of life will be held for James Alton Stackpole, 70, of North Bend at 1 p.m. Friday, Dec. 12, in the hotel fireplace lobby of The Mill CasinoHotel, 3201 Tremont Ave., in North Bend. James J i m w a s Stackpole born Dec. 12, 1943, in Oak Park, Ill., to John and Shirley (Haas) Stackpole. He passed away Oct. 6, 2014, at his home after a long and courageously fought illness.

John and Shirley moved the family to Lisle, Ill., where Jim attended Lisle High School winning ribbons for his track performances. In 1964, Jim married Louise Zettel and had two daughters, Darci Dawn and Shannon Lee. Jim would hold various jobs including positions with Stewart Warner, a manufacturer of vehicle gauges and lubricating equipment, Schwab Magnatrol, aka Magnetrol International, Inc., a company specializing in the manufacturing and distribution of worldwide level and flow controls, Coast to Coast Hardware Store and Pepperidge Farms, even working a brief time for Southern Pacific Railroad (he’d come home singing “I’ve been working on the railroad”) before moving his family to Southern California to join a landscaping business with his brother, Johnny.

After his divorce from Louise in 1971, he moved to Carmichael, Calif., and went into business for himself as a maintenance contractor. On Dec. 4,

1976, Jim married Virginia Ann (Crocker) Nyberg and acquired two more daughters, Paula Ann and Pamela Kristen. Leaving his own business, Jim worked several years with Clark and Rush Heating & Air Conditioning. He landed his career job in 1979 with the San Juan United School District where he and his friend and co-worker, David, maintained the district’s cafeteria equipment until Jim retired in 2003 after 25 years of service.

During those years, Jim and Virginia enjoyed camping trips in their trailer and many fun years of square dancing and line dancing making lifelong friends along the way. After retirement, Jim moved Virginia to North Carolina to live among her relatives because he knew it was a dream of hers and they enjoyed driving the back country roads in search of antiques. In 2004, they returned to the West Coast to be closer to family settling in North Bend—Jim’s dream to retire by the ocean.

Jim was a master of anything he set his mind to and had many interests which kept him busy from morning to night.

He enjoyed sports dating back to Jerry West and the LA Lakers, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, the Chicago Bears, the Sacramento Kings and the San Francisco 49ers, a love of the sports shared by the family. Over the years, he was on leagues in pool and bowling and, until his health forced him to stop, he was a member of the South Coast Pool League playing with the Tides Inn in Reedsport.

H e e n j oye d wo o d working, growing his own vegetable gardens,

and building model train scenes from scratch with trestles, tunnels, doing his own artwork in the displays of building and landscaping. He once built a coastal scene in his back yard complete with a wharf, fishing boat, a working lighthouse and storefronts. Let’s not forget his infamous love of playing the slots at the casinos, but his passion was his 1955 classic Chevy station wagon which he proudly owned for 39 years, spending many happy hours on renovations occasionally entering his car in the classic car shows he loved to attend.

Jim will be lovingly remembered by his family and all who knew him for his good humor, his easy laughter and for the love he had for his family. As a friend said recently, “Jim was one of the good guys.”

Jim is survived by his wife, Virginia; daughters, Darci, and Shannon; grandchildren, Casey, Nicholas, Corey Alton, Brandon Lee, Ryan and Christen; great-grandchildren, Serenity, Chasity, Shirlee, Chloe and Chase; his family with Virginia, who he loved like his own from the moment they came into his life, daughters, Paula and Pamela and her husband, Rusty; grandchildren, Joey, Brandon Allan, Kyle and Chris; great-grandchildren, Jaydon, Adelynn and Jacob; his devoted brother, Jan Stackpole and wife, Carol; devoted sister, Penny Fyrogennis; and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

Arrangements are under the direction of Dunes Memorial Chapel, 541271-2822.

Oregon festival’s giant nutcracker: 41 feet ‌R O S E B U R G ( A P ) — Sponsors of the annual holiday festival near Roseburg have commissioned a whopper of a centerpiece — a wooden nutcracker intended to stand 41 feet tall, weigh more than 16,000 pounds and work its jaw with enough force to crush coconuts.

The statue was created by a Willamette Valley woodworker using chain saws, The News-Review reported.

The crushing power comes from a quarterhorsepower engine that opens and closes a statue jaw about six times a minute.

Cranes were deployed this week to assemble the statue at River Forks Park for the Umpqua Valley Festival of Lights, which begins Sunday.

The sponsors say they have sent documentation to the Guinness Book of World Records in hopes of having it declared the world’s largest nutcracker, eclipsing a German one 8 feet shorter.

Pieces of the Roseburg statue were trucked on Interstate 5 Monday from the workshop of Toby Johnson in Aurora, between Salem and Portland.

The nutcracker is made of a variety of woods from downed trees: sequoia, coastal redwood, western red cedar and Port Orford cedar.

Johnson said he used a 6-foot chain saw to make the initial cuts and shorter saws for the detail work.

Friends at Intermountain Innovations Corp. designed the jaw and did the metal work.

Labeling campaign didn’t end on Election Day Labeling proponents kept campaign alive after election, helped push closer to recount ‌P O RT L A N D ( A P) — The campaign pushing to require labels on genetically engineered foods built an extensive voter-turnout operation leading up to the November election, but their work didn’t stop on Election Day. Using a new state law that makes public the names of voters whose ballots weren’t counted, usually because of problems with the signature, labeling proponents aggressively reached out to

those they thought might be supporters.

As a result, they may have helped push the measure toward an automatic recount. It had been headed for defeat, but late election returns showed it trailing by a razor-thin margin.

“We were successful in getting several thousand challenged ballots counted and included as part of this election, and it’s making a difference,” said Sandeep Kaushik, a spokesman for the pro-labeling campaign.

On Friday afternoon, Measure 92 was trailing by just 1,100 votes out of more than 1.5 million — a spread of less than 0.1 percent. Oregon law requires a recount if the margin is within 0.2 percent.

Alan took over management of the Coos Educators Credit Union after V.L. Reavis retired, located b e l ow t h e M a rs h f i e l d boys’ gym at that time.

After retiring from teaching in 1992, Alan continued as full-time manager for another five years at its new location in downtown Coos Bay. Alan was a longtime member of the First United Methodist Church in Coos Bay, dedicating his time serving on many committees and grounds maintenance projects.

He also was a member of Rotary for many years. He volunteered his time to better his community, most remembered as groundskeeper of three islands in Bunker Hill as part of the state department’s Adopt-a-Landscape Program, a 10-year commitment to which he gladly dedicated his time.

Alan is survived by his wife, Jane; daughter and

son-in-law, Janice and Jeff Krout of Gresham; daughter and son-in-law, Helen and Jim Farr of Coos Bay; four grandchildren, Lisa Farr, Michael Farr, Emily Krout and Lucy Krout; sister, Leila Zehrung of Sublimity; brother, Leslie Henrickson of Salem; brother, Richard and his wife, Luella of McMinnv i l l e ; a n d n u m e ro u s cousins, nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Alfred and Selma Henrickson; sisters, Esther, Goldie, Ann, Rose, and Marilyn; and brothers, Paul, Fred, Reynold, and George.

Marine receives Bronze Star ‌SAN DIEGO (AP) — A Marine who was left paralyzed by a sniper’s bullet in Afghanistan fulfilled a promise to himself on Friday and walked using robotic leg braces in a ceremony at Camp Pendleton, where he was awarded a Bronze Star.

The crowd of 300 Marines was silent as Capt.

Derek Herrera walked. All that was heard was the faint whirring of electric motors from the device.

Herrera then stood, holding onto one crutch.

With his other hand, he saluted his commanding officer, who presented him the award.

“Your drive and determination are great and you will continue to do great things, “ Lt. Col. John J. Lynch, commanding officer of the Marine Corps Special Operations Command, told him at Friday’s ceremony.

Herrera had vowed to walk at the event that also marked his retirement after 8½ years in the military, saying he wanted to leave the Marine Corps the same way he joined. He has gone from fighting on the battlefield to becoming a strong

advocate for veterans.

“I’m not out of the fight and I’ll continue on,” he told his battalion on Friday, adding that it was “truly an honor and a pleasure to stand before you today.”

Herrera was the first person in the United States to purchase the ReWalk system recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, according to the company, ReWalk Robotics Ltd. The special operations officer was honored with the Bronze Star for his actions on June 14, 2012, when the patrol he was leading came under heavy fire in Afghanistan. Herrera continued coordinating efforts while receiving treatment for his own spinal injury and collapsed left lung.

“The bravery and fortitude he displayed inspired his men to heroic feats as they valiantly fought to save the lives of their wounded team members and repel the enemy assault,” wrote Maj. Gen. M.A. Clark in recommending Herrera be recognized with a Bronze Star.

News Digest Highway opens; flooding a concern ‌BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — A stretch of the New York State Thruway closed by a snowfall totaling up to 7 feet has reopened for the first time since hundreds of motorists were stranded Tuesday.

A spokesman for the Thruway Authority said the westernmost 132 miles of Interstate 90 opened at 3 p.m. EST. Some exit ramps remained closed.

The snow ended Friday but looming rain and warm temperatures raised the threat of flooding.

The National Weather Service issued a flood watch for the Buffalo area.

Iran nuke talks stalled ‌V IENNA (AP) — Contentious nuclear talks between world powers and Tehran hit a new snag Friday after Iran apparently again turned down U.S. demands for concessions, leaving negotiations in limbo just three days before a deadline for a deal.

In hours of high drama reflecting the delicate stage of the talks, both U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif first made, then cancelled plans to walk away from the talks — at least temporarily — for additional consultations.

Such developments could have meant possible progress, suggesting that the Iranians needed political approval from Tehran to move forward.

Wolf travels hundreds of miles ‌FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — Wildlife officials have confirmed the first gray wolf in northern Arizona in more than 70 years.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service spokesman Jeff Humphrey said Friday that analysis of the animal’s scat shows it’s from the Northern Rockies population.

The wolf is believed to have traveled at least 450 miles into northern Arizona, where it’s been spotted at the Grand Canyon and the adjacent forest.

South Africa to move rhinos ‌ KUKUZA, South Africa S (AP) — The rhino crashes forward, pounding the earth with its broad feet.

Then, as a dart’s sedative takes hold, it staggers and slouches to the ground, where South African rangers prepare to move the oversized beast by truck

to an area they hope is safe from poachers.

Kruger National Park has conducted about 45 such captures since last month, part of a plan to create a stronghold within the country’s flagship reserve where rhinos will get extra protection from poachers, many of whom c ross f ro m n e i g h b o ring Mozambique and are slaughtering the animals in increasing numbers.

Some rhinos were moved to other parks, and the relocation “experiment,” as rangers describe it, is likely to escalate next year.

Grouse needs buffer from drilling ‌B ILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A government report with significant implications for the U.S. energy industry says a struggling bird species needs a 3-mile buffer between its breeding grounds and oil and gas drilling, wind farms and solar projects.

The study comes as the Obama administration weighs new protections for the greater sage grouse.

The ground-dwelling, chicken-sized birds range across 11 western states and two Canadian provinces.

A 3-mile buffer for the birds represents a much larger area than the nooccupancy zones where drilling and other activity is prohibited under some state and federal land management plans.

Russia urged to uphold truce ‌K IEV, Ukraine (AP) — U.S. Vice President Joe Biden criticized Russia on Friday for its role in eastern Ukraine, urging Moscow to uphold a cease-fire in the war-torn region as he visited Kiev on the anniversary of the country’s antigovernment protests.

B i d e n sa i d We s te r n sanctions against Russia would not be lifted until Moscow does more to enforce the cease-fire.

Over 900 people have been killed and fighting has continued in eastern Ukraine since a truce began in September, and the conflict has claimed at least 4,300 lives since April, according to the U.N. “If Russia were to fulfill these commitments and respect Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity, we could begin a rational discussion about sanctions,” Biden said.

“But that’s not what has happened. Instead we’ve seen more provocative actions, more blatant disregard for the agreement.”

Plant Sides argue over emissions Continued from A1

“Whether it’s coal exports or LNG, to the extent Oregon has the ability to resist, impede or slow these things down, we should be doing that,” he said.

Supporters of LNG plants argue they will displace dirtier, coal-fired power generation in Asia, reducing greenhouse emissions as well as toxic emissions that float back to the West Coast on the jet stream.

A study commissioned by the U.S. Energy Department of Energy concluded that the total carbon emissions of gas produced, liquefied and

shipped from a Gulf Coast LNG terminal and burned at a power plant in Shanghai are still slightly lower than energy produced with Chinese coal or gas imported via pipeline from Russia. The numbers might look even better for a West Coast LNG terminal with shorter shipping distances.

Opponents counter that U.S. gas exports are creating a new category of fossilfuel emissions. They point to studies showing that Asia’s use of LNG will also displace renewable energy and increase energy consumption, erasing carbon benefits.

They also say environmental analyses should take into account the emissions from increased drilling for natural gas to supply the export markets.

ones that are adoptable.

“Some of them are just old,” Kohl said. “They’ll be here till they cross that rainbow bridge.”

Kohl said in a five month period, the shelter had found homes for about 100 cats.

Kohl is trying to save every cat she can.

For Nelda Neifer, a volunteer at the shelter, Kohl goes to great lengths in caring for the cats, and even if the cat is dying, Kohl never leaves it and makes it feel at home, she said.

“It’s just remarkable,” Ne i fe r s a i d . “ I d o n ’t know where she gets the strength.”

In the city, Kohl’s shelter, the Friends group and the county shelter are the only places that take in animals, though Pacific Cove Humane Society is trying to get a shelter, and all of the shelters work together.

The main goal is to find homes for the animals and save it from getting put down.

This is not always possible.

Last year, the Coos County Animal Shelter had to euthanize about 345 animals, 308 of which were cats.

Kohl said though the county shelter does have to put down the animals, the employees try their hardest to find other alternatives. “ T h ey ’re n o t m ea n

warmer than previous years.

For Kohl, the shelter is also dealing with the problem of people dumping their cats. Kohl said Coos County has so many isolated areas which offer people the perfect opportunity to dump their animals without being seen.

Every week, Kohl and about 10 volunteers go into the community and set traps to catch the felines. After catching a cat, the shelter takes it to S/Nipped, a low cost spay and neuter clinic in Coos Bay, to get fixed.

Kohl said without S/ Nipped, the population would explode because veterinary clinics would be the only option.

“If you take a cat to one of these vet clinics, it will cost you about 160 bucks,” Kohl said.

W h i l e t h e s h e l te r catches and takes the cats to get fixed, people are also bringing in strays or cats they can’t care for anymore.

Kohl also takes in cats from the county shelter and the Friends group, and with help from the volunteers, she nurtures the animals and tries to find the cats homes for the

“They’re good people who have a really horrible job to do.”

Rick Hoover, a Coos County animal control officer, said organizations like Kohl’s and the Friends group have helped the stray animal population dramatically.

For Hoover, those who work at the shelter try through every means possible to not have the animals put down, but there are constraints, he said.

“We have 18 spots,” Hoover said. “If number 19 comes in, its not going to see the light of day.

That’s just shelter life.”

Hoover said the county shelter cannot risk over c rowd i n g b e c a u s e o f the potential for disease spreading, and it’s the Sheriff’s office’s policy to put the animals down.

Hoover said a few years ago, there was a disease outbreak at the county shelter, and he had to put down 19 animals.

For Hoover, the work Kohl’s organization, S/ Nipped and FOCCAS has been doing has been a tremendous help to the county shelter and the community, he said. “ We d o t h i s e ve r y week,” Kohl said. “We gotta be making a dent.”

They have.

In 2013, the county s h e l te r saw a d ro p o f about 25 percent in cats taken in from the previous year while the number of

euthanasia cases went down from 382 to 308. In 2001, the county shelter had put down about 1,200 cats, according to the Oregon Human Society.

Hoover said Kohl and h e r o rga n i z a t i o n h a s played a huge part in tackling this issue.

Just like any business in the area, Kohl’s shelter has struggled to make financial ends meet. Kohl said her shelter primarily gets financed through garage sales and some donations.

For Kohl, her dedication isn’t limited to her shelter. She regularly puts on a cat costume and goes to local elementary schools to educate children on the importance of getting animals spayed and neutered.

Kohl said she also feeds and tends to some feral cat colonies around the area.

Although Kohl’s shelter and the other organizations have greatly helped the stray and feral cat population, Kohl said the shelters need more help from the community.

“If you see a cat, get it fixed,” Kohl said. “It’s not its fault its out there.”

In Newport, a petition with more than 18,000 signatures was sent to the commandant of the Coast Guard. After hearing the concerns of the public and lawmakers, the Coast Guard announced it will delay the closures in both cities until Dec. 15 to assess its impact.

The Oregon and South Carolina delegations are not giving up, and using every means necessary to get the decision reversed.

‌T he Southwestern Oregon Community College volleyball team was eliminated from the NWAC Tournament with a pair of losses Thursday.

The Lakers fell to Tacoma 25-22, 25-21, 25-15 and then lost a best-of-three consolation match to Everett 25-19, 14-25, 15-12.

“We got our ultimate goal, making it to NWACs,” said SWOCC coach Stephanie Willett. “We obviously wanted to make it to the second round of play, but it didn’t go our way.

“It’s been a heck of a season with this team and I couldn’t be happier that we made it to this point.”

In the loss to Tacoma, Tori Foutz had eight kills and Gabby White added seven. Christine Wing had 24 assists and 15 digs, Brea Mosieur had nine digs and Alyssa Sprague and Brandi Wilson added eight each.

Against Everett, White had six kills and Foutz added five. Wing had 19 assists and 13 digs and Wilson had 11 digs.

The Lakers finished the season 19-14 and advanced to the NWAC Tournament for the first time since 2008.

‌PORTLAND — Injuries and a scuffle overshadowed another strong effort by Portland’s Damian Lillard.

Lillard had 21 points and nine assists to help the Trail Blazers beat the short-handed Chicago Bulls 105-87 on Friday night.

However, Mike Dunleavy’s flagrant foul on Lillard in the third quarter, followed by Taj Gibson’s painful left ankle injury, marred Portland’s sixth straight win.

Lillard was going up for a 3-pointer when Dunleavy barreled into him, knocking him down. Wesley Matthews ran over and pushed Dunleavy, and Aaron Brooks in turn shoved Matthews. Aldridge stepped in to separate the group.

Dunleavy was served with a flagrant foul, while Matthews and Brooks got offsetting technicals. Lillard made all three shots.

Afterward, Lillard called it a cheap play.

“When I was shooting the b all I saw him coming at me and I thought, ‘He’s not stopping,’” Lillard said. “Anything could have happened.”

Dunleavy called it an “awkward moment.”

“I was going to intentionally foul him, but he went up to shoot,” he said. “What was I supposed to do?”

Chicago lost Gibson in the third quarter when he sprained his left ankle. Gibson, who came down on Portland’s Wesley Matthews, clutched his ankle and grimaced in pain before he was helped off the court. The 6-foot-9 forward was averaging 12.9 points and 5.9 rebounds coming into the game.

Coach Tom Thibodeau said he didn’t think it was serious, but Gibson left the Moda Center in a boot and on crutches.

“We’ll see where he is tomorrow,” Thibodeau said.

The Bulls were already limited without Derrick Rose, who missed his fourth straight game with a sore left hamstring. Pau

Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah, left, and Portland Trail Blazers center Robin Lopez battle for position on a rebound during the first half Friday.

Gasol missed his third game with a left calf strain.

They were also missing starting guard Kirk Hinrich, who left Thursday night’s 103-88 loss to the Sacramento Kings with a chest contusion. X-Rays were negative, but Thibodeau said before the game that Hinrich was day-to-day.

Rookie Nikola Mirotic came off the bench and had season highs with 24 points and 11 rebounds for the Bulls.

LaMarcus Aldridge added 16 points and nine rebounds for the Blazers, who got Nicolas Batum back after he missed four

games with a right knee contusion.

Portland jumped out to an early 25-9 lead after Aldridge’s 3-pointer. Lillard had seven assists in the first quarter alone and finished three short of matching his career high.

The Bulls closed the gap in the second quarter with an 8-0 run that pulled them to 39-35.

The rally was short-lived and the Blazers went up 51-39 after a 10-0 run, capped by back-toback 3-pointers from Lillard.

Portland led 61-42 at the half.

Aldridge passed to Robin

Lopez for a dunk to put Portland up 70-45 before Portland sat its starters for the final period.

“Obviously Chicago didn’t have three of their main guys, but I liked our demeanor,” Blazers coach Terry Stotts said. “I liked our disposition, the way we came out of the gates. Our defense was solid.”

Despite the drama, Lillard thought it was one of the Blazers’ most complete games of the season.

“We started the game really well and then they found their way back in — and we picked it right back up,” he said.

Oregon gives Altman his 100th win RON RICHMOND Associated Press‌

‌E UGENE (AP) — Joseph Young scored 24 points and Oregon parlayed its 20-7 edge at the foul line into a 78-68 victory over Toledo on Friday night.

Young shot 7-for-13 from the field and made all seven of his free throws to lead four Ducks (3-0) in double figures.

Elgin Cook had one doubledouble for Oregon with 13 points and 12 rebounds, and Dwayne Benjamin added another with 11 points and 12 rebounds. Dillon Brooks also had 10 points for the Ducks.

Julius Brown led the Rockets (1-2), who lost their second consecutive game, with 19 points. J.D. Weatherspoon added 14 points and Jonathan Williams had 13.

The victory was the 100th for coach Dana Altman, who is now 100-47 in his fifth season at Oregon.

The Ducks pushed a 36-34 halftime lead to 10 points on

four occasions — three times on dunks through the heart of the Toledo defense — and led by 12 on Cook’s driving layup with 1:03 left.

Oregon finished with a 46-36 edge in rebounds and blocked seven Rocket shots. Still, the Ducks’ biggest advantage came at the foul line where they went 20 of 24 to just 7 of 13 for Toledo The Rockets’ leading scorer in their first two games, center Nathan Boothe, had the game’s first two points and wasn’t heard from again before fouling out with 7:16 left to play.

Boothe and his backup, Zach Garber, combined for just four points and seven rebounds before both fouled out.

Brown ignited the Rockets’ offense in the first half with four 3-pointers and 14 points.

The Ducks countered with Young, who had 13 points and two big 3s to close out the half.

Oregon opened a 25-20 lead, its largest of the half, but that was erased when Toledo ran off nine consecutive points, the last five by Weatherspoon.

The Associated Press‌

Oregon’s Joseph Young, center, looks for a way past Toledo’s Justin Drummond, left, and Nathan Boothe, right, during the first half Friday.

Weatherspoon’s short bank shot capped his own sevenpoint run for a 31-28 Toledo lead before Young shook loose twice

in the final minute of the half.

His second 3 with 10 seconds before the half was the game’s ninth and final lead change.

‌T he Southwestern Oregon Community College women’s basketball team opened the season with a three-point loss to Green River on Friday at Mount Hood Community College.

Despite the 74-71 loss, Laker coach Mike Herbert was pleased with his team’s effort, especially with sophomore leaders Aminata Cole and Jazmin Bembry back home in Coos Bay nursing injuries.

“We were down by 16 at half,” Herbert said. “We forced 20 turnovers which is good. At halftime, we only had 27 points and we finished with 71.”

Bembry, the Lakers’ point guard, is nursing a sprained knee ligament and will be out a couple of weeks. Cole has a bruised bone in her hand and the Lakers are being cautious with the injury.

“We showed some enthusiasm, some maturity and some grit,” Herbert said. “We are calling for a little more toughness this year.

“They kept playing. That was good.”

Nike Lee had 19 points, six rebounds and five assists and spent most of the night at point guard in Bembry’s absence.

Freshman Tiare Sugui did well when she was on the floor at point, Herbert said.

North Bend graduate Brooke Davison had 17 points, nine rebounds and no turnovers in her first game since suiting up for the Bulldogs in 2010. Yvonne Daniels added 10 points.

The Lakers had a shot to tie at the buzzer, but it was off the mark.

They are back on the floor today against Highline and have a home game against an alumni team at 1 p.m. Sunday, followed by an alumni men’s game.

“We did a lot of good things,” Herbert said. “We’ll see what we can do tomorrow.”

76ers losing streak reaches 12 games THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ‌PHILADELPHIA — Isaiah Thomas scored 23 points and Markieff Morris had 18 to lead the Phoenix Suns past the winless Philadelphia 76ers 122-96 on Friday night.

The Sixers have lost their first 12 games and are just six losses shy of matching the 2009-10 New Jersey Nets for worst start in NBA history. Philadelphia is also three away from matching the 1972-73 team for worst start (0-15) in franchise history and could challenge that squad for the worst 82-game season (9-73) in NBA history.

The Sixers actually led 27-26 at the end of the first quarter until the Suns rolled toward the rout.

The Suns shot 69 percent in the first half and easily shook off the early challenge to win their third straight game.

Michael Carter-Williams led the Sixers with 18 points.

Wizards 91, Cavaliers 78: John Wall took over in the third quarter and finished 28 points, seven assists and six rebounds as Washington knocked LeBron James and Cleveland back below .500 with the Cavaliers’ third straight loss.

Resuming a rivalry that peaked last decade when the Wizards and James’ Cavaliers met three consecutive years in the playoffs—it was so intense that both Jay-Z and Soulja Boy

got involved—the Wizards grabbed a majority of the 50-50 rebounds and capitalized on the defensive woes that have hurt Cleveland.

James scored 22 points on 8-for-21 shooting, but Cleveland committed 19 turnovers, shot 36 percent and scored a season-low in points. James was never below .500 more than 10 games into a season during his four seasons with the Miami Heat, but he and the Cavaliers are now 5-6.

Magic 105, Hornets 100: Evan Fournier scored 21 points and Tobias Harris had 17 points and 16 rebounds as Orlando rallied from 23 points down at halftime to hand Charlotte its fourth straight loss.

The Magic trailed by 15 entering the fourth quarter, but Willie Green sparked a comeback by scoring all nine of his points in the final period.

Al Jefferson had 24 points and 11 rebounds, and Kemba Walker added 15 points and 12 rebounds for the struggling Hornets.

Hawks 99, Pistons 89: Jeff Teague scored a seasonhigh 28 points and Atlanta recovered after blowing a 19-point lead.

Detroit had rallied after trailing 70-51 in the third quarter. Backup point guard D.J. Augustin, who had 14 points, led the comeback as Detroit pulled even with a 14-0 run that began late in the third quarter and continued into the final period.

The Associated Press‌

Philadelphia 76ers forward Brandon Davies scrambles for a loose ball with Phoenix Suns forward T.J. Warren, left, and forward Shavlik Randolph, right, in the second half Friday.

Raptors 124, Bucks 83: Lou Williams scored a seasonhigh 22 points, Jonas Valanciunas added 18 points and 12 rebounds, and Toronto narrowly missed matching its largest margin of victory in franchise history.

Kyle Lowry scored 20 points and Terrence Ross had 13 as the Raptors wrapped up a franchiserecord seven-game homestand at 6-1 and became the first Eastern Conference team to reach 10 wins.

The Raptors’ biggest win was 96-54 victory over Miami on March 19, 2008.

Jabari Parker scored 15 points and Ersan Ilyasova had 14 for the Bucks.

Spurs 121, Timberwolves 92: Tony Parker scored 28 points in 25 minutes and San Antonio cruised past short-handed Minnesota.

Parker made 12 of 18 shots, including all three of his 3-pointers, and Danny Green scored 18 points for the Spurs, who got an easy night with a game against the Brooklyn Nets at home on Saturday.

Anthony Bennett scored a career-high 20 points for the Timberwolves, who had just 10 healthy players after announcing earlier in the day that Kevin Martin will be out indefinitely with a fractured right wrist. The Wolves were also missing starters Ricky Rubio, Nikola Pekovic and Thaddeus Young and backup big man Ronny Turiaf.

Grizzlies 117, Celtics 100: Marc Gasol matched his career high with 32 points

and Zach Randolph added 16 points and 16 rebounds to lead Memphis.

Kelly Olynyk led Boston with 18 points.

Nets 94, Thunder 92: Jarrett Jack scored 23 points to help Brooklyn Nets snap a five-game losing streak.

Reggie Jackson, who led the Thunder with 21 points, missed what would have been a game-winning 3-pointer at the buzzer.

Mavericks 140, Lakers 106: Dirk Nowitzki scored 23 points in yet another efficient shooting effort and Dallas rolled past the struggling Los Angeles Lakers.

The Mavericks won their sixth straight game overall.

Nowitzki, Monta Ellis and Chandler Parsons were a combined 23 of 33 from the field as the Mavericks had season highs in points, shooting percentage (62 percent) and assists (37).

Parsons had 21 points and Ellis scored 20.

Kobe Bryant missed his

first eight shots and was 6 of 22 for 17 points.

Nuggets 117, Pelicans 97: Kenneth Faried and Arron Afflalo scored 19 points each, Wilson Chandler had 18 and the Denver Nuggets beat the New Orleans.

Danilo Gallinari had 17 points and JaVale McGee 14 for the Nuggets, who have won four of their last five after starting the season 1-6.

Anthony Davis led the Pelicans with 18 points and nine rebounds. It was the first time in eight games Davis has failed to eclipse 20 points.

Warriors 101, Jazz 88: Andre Iguodala scored 17 points, Harrison Barnes had 14 points and 11 rebounds and the Golden State Warriors used a blistering start to beat the Utah Jazz for their fourth straight win.

Golden State (9-2) is off to its best start in 41 years.

Enes Kanter scored 18 points.

Beavers capture third straight win at home ‌C O RVA L L I S ( A P) — Gary Payton II scored 10 points and had four steals to lead Oregon State to a 55-42 victory over Oral Roberts on Friday night.

Olaf Shaftenaar added 12 points for the Beavers (3-0), who took control in the second half.

Bo b by Wo rd h a d 1 1 points for the Golden

Eagles (1-2) while Korey Billbury added 10.

Oral Roberts started off cold, and the Golden Eagles finally scored with a Billbury layup at the 13:38 mark, when they trailed 10-2. That basket started a 15-3 run by the Golden Eagles, who took a 15-13 lead on a Word 3-pointer with 6:11 left in the half.

Oral Roberts led 20-18 at the break, despite shooting 16.7 percent but going 13 of 18 from the free throw line.

The Beavers went on a 12-0 run to open the second half. A Malcolm Duvivier to Payton alleyoop dunk made the score 30-20 with 15:51 remaining.

Federal judge denies betting in New Jersey THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ‌A federal judge ruled Friday night that New Jersey cannot partially lift a prohibition on sports betting in an effort to boost its struggling horse racing and casino industries, a finding Gov. Chris Christie’s administration intends to appeal.

The decision from U.S. District Judge Michael Shipp was the expected outcome since he had ruled similarly in the past.

The state, locked in a legal battle with the NCAA and the four major U.S. professional sports leagues, has already filed a notice of appeal, Michael Drewniak, a spokesman for the Republican governor, said shortly after the judge’s decision was announced.

Don’t Get Caught in the Cold.

Keep Your Family Safe with a Kohler Home Generator A standby home generator keeps your power on during an outage. It’s installed outside your house (like an AC unit) and comes on automatically — whether you’re home or away.

All within seconds of a power outage.

Plus home generators run on propane or natural gas, so there’s no refueling.

Your generator then supplies your home with electricity until the utility power is restored.

North Bend, OR • 541.756.0581 Bandon, OR • 541.347.3066 www.reeseelectric.com CCB# 23563

That stance is uniting New Jersey’s elected officials.

“We are going to continue pursuing every legal option available,” said state Senate president Steve Sweeney, a Democrat.

“The economic impact that sports wagering can have on New Jersey is far too important to simply shrug our shoulders and move on.”

State Sen. Raymond Lesniak, who has led the push for sports betting in New Jersey, called it “important for our entire state, but especially for Atlantic City,” where four casinos have closed this year.

A federal law bans New Jersey and most other states from authorizing betting on sports. But the state contended it did not want to license or authorize the betting. Instead, it was seeking to end a prohibition.

But the judge agreed with the sports leagues that setting parameters such as limiting sports gambling to certain places amounts to regulation.

While he agreed with the central part of the sports’ leagues argument, he dismissed some of their other arguments.

New Jersey has been pushing persistently to allow sports betting at

horse tracks and casinos.

Voters have approved the concept, but a federal court rejected it in a slightly different form. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case earlier this year, and it seemed that might be the end of it.

But as the financial crisis in Atlantic City’s casinos deepened, Christie’s administration tried a new approach. Instead of legalizing sports gambling in defiance of the leagues and federal government, it called for not enforcing the state’s ban. The Legislature followed with a bill to lift the ban as it pertains to casinos and tracks. Christie signed that into law last month.

The NCAA, the NBA, the NFL, the NHL and Major League Baseball contend that federal law would allow the state to lift the ban entirely but not to allow sports betting with some conditions, such as limiting it to certain locations and keeping minors from participating.

The ruling comes just over a week after NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said he supports legalizing sports gambling though not in the way it would happen if New Jersey prevailed. Silver is the first commissioner of a major U.S. sports league to make such a stand.

Wie shoots up the LPGA leaderboard

Pacquiao faces Algieri with eyes on bigger prize TIM DAHLBERG

DOUG FERGUSON

The Associated Press‌

‌ APLES, Fla. — N Michelle Wie suddenly is in a position to consider a million ways how a great year can get even better.

On a tough day that only rewarded the best shots, Wie holed out for eagle with a pitching wedge on her way to a 5-under 67 that moved her up high enough on the leaderboard Friday at the CME Group Tour Championship to get into position for a $1 million bonus.

C a rl o ta C i ga n d a o f Spain took advantage of a putting lesson from Spanish great Jose Maria Olazabal to make five birdies for a 67 that gave her a share of the lead with Julieta Granada of Paraguay, who scrambled for a 71. They were at 7-under 137 going into the weekend at the Tiburon Golf Club.

Morgan Pressel, who rallied on the back nine Thursday to overcome a rugged start, shot a 66 and was one shot out of the lead.

All of them would love to win the LPGA Tour season finale because it’s a big title with a $500,000 check for first place. None has a mathematical chance at the $1 million bonus for winning the points-based Race to CME Globe.

And that’s where Wie comes in.

Wie, who captured her first major this year at Pinehurst No. 2 in the U.S. Women’s Open, is No. 4 in the Race to CME Globe.

Only the top three players — Stacy Lewis, Inbee Park and 17-year-old Lydia Ko — can win the $1 million bonus simply by winning the tournament.

Wie needs a little bit of help, only she did most of

‌MACAU (AP) — Boxing is a hurt business, as Manny Pacquiao found out when he ended up face down on the canvas after being knocked out just three fights ago by Juan Manuel Marquez.

It’s also a risky business, and there are some in the sport who believe Pacquiao is taking a big one when he gets up Sunday morning in this gambling enclave for his welterweight title fight with Chris Algieri.

The stakes are always high anytime Pacquiao fights. This, though, is a fight he must not only win but look good while doing so if there is to be any hope of a megafight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. “A fifth- or sixth-round knockout would be perfect,” promoter Bob Arum said.

“But who really knows?”

Pacquiao is a heavy favorite against Algieri, a New Yorker who seemingly came out of nowhere to get the fight. But Algieri poses problems for Pacquiao with both his height — he is a half head taller — and a left jab that he used to come back from two first-round knockdowns to beat hardhitting Ruslan Provodnikov in his last bout.

Algieri is also unbeaten in 20 fights and extremely confident his boxing skills will allow him to prevail in a bout being fought at a catch weight of 144 pounds.

“When I look into the mirror I know I’ve done all the work necessary to win this fight,” said Algieri, who holds a master’s degree in clinical nutrition. “I’m sure that Manny realizes this will be a real fight.”

Algieri apparently didn’t do enough work, though, when he weighed in at 144.4 pounds Saturday morning to 143.8 for Pacquiao.

The Associated Press‌

The Associated Press‌

Michelle Wie putts on No. 16 on Friday during the second round of the LPGA’s CME Group Tour Championship golf tournament at Tiburon Golf Club in Naples, Fla. the heavy lifting.

Even though she made bogey on the par-5 opening hole that irritated her, the 25-year-old from Hawaii bounced back with her eagle on No. 7, birdies

on the par 5s and a score that put her only two shots out of the lead.

“All I want is an opportunity, a chance,” Wie said. “I’m really proud of myself for giving myself

that today. I just want to go out there tomorrow and put myself in a great position for Sunday. That’s all I want, and that’s all I’m asking for. Whatever happens, happens.”

Algieri worked off the weight and 50 minutes later came in at 143.6.

Pacquiao will make more than $20 million for the fight regardless of what happens, but an even bigger payday with Mayweather, a bout boxing fans have been clamoring for years. That would likely be out the window for good if Algieri somehow finds a way to win.

“I’m not predicting a knockout but I’m looking for a good fight and looking to prove I can still fight,” Pacquiao said. “I’m looking to maintain my speed and my power in this fight.”

Talk about a possible Mayweather fight heated up this week. Though Algieri is an attractive and articulate opponent who has done more than his share to sell the bout, the tantalizing possibility of a PacquiaoMayweather fight suddenly seems real again.

Arum said he has had talks with Les Moonves, the head of CBS Corp., to bring a previously reluctant Mayweather into the ring with Pacquiao next spring, and believes they could have a deal in place by the end of the year. Mayweather is under contract to the Showtime network, which CBS owns, for two more fights.

Algieri could ruin it all, though Pacquiao trainer Freddie Roach believes his Cinderella story will end quickly when the two finally get into the ring about noon Sunday for a bout that will be on pay-per-view Saturday night in the U.S. “He (Algieri) doesn’t have the greatest chin in the world and we’re going to show that,” Roach said.

“Manny has told me he will knock him out in one round.

He won’t repeat that, but he has that kind of confidence in him. I feel great about this fight.”

NFL should consider return to Raiders celebrate traditional six-division format stunning victory PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press‌

A T L A N TA — T h e ‌ Atlanta Falcons won’t apologize for somehow being in first place with a losing record.

They shouldn’t have to.

This one is on the NFL. The league should seriously consider realignment — or, at the very least, a revamping of the playoff system — to prevent a repeat of this looming postseason embarrassment: the Falcons or New Orleans Saints or whoever emerges as champion of the woeful NFC South actually getting to host a first-round game when they have no business playing after December.

“It’s set up the way it is,” Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan said with a shrug.

“We’re not worried about what people say.”

The NFL should be.

The playoffs are supposed to reward the best teams, and no one would put Atlanta (4-6), New Orleans (4-6), Carolina (3-7-1) or Tampa Bay (2-8) in that group.

Yep, even the Buccaneers are still in the postseason mix, a team that trailed the Falcons 56-0 early in the season and just doubled its win output with a victory over Washington.

“Normally this time of year, when you’re talking about that second win, you’re not throwing a lot of parties,” coach Lovie Smith quipped. “But for us, to be two wins out of first place in the win column, that is big.”

It’s not like this is all that unusual, either.

In the last six years, three mediocre teams — San Diego in 2008 and Denver in 2011 with 8-8 records, Seattle in 2010 at 7-9 — not only made the playoffs at the expense of

The Associated Press‌

New Orleans Saints fan Larry Rolling holds a sign reflecting the sentiment of many Saints fans in the second half of an NFL football game against the Cincinnati Bengals in New Orleans last Sunday. more-deserving teams, but won their opening playoff games against superior opponents largely because they were playing at home.

The NFL, you see, gives the top four seeds in each conference to the division champions, regardless of whether a wild-card team — or, as was the case in the aforementioned years — both wild-card teams have better records.

That’s certainly going to be the case again this season in the NFC. The Falcons, in fact, could actually win the d iv i s i o n w i t h a 6 -1 0 record, having beaten no one outside the South.

If that happens, they would still open the playoffs at the Georgia Dome.

Other than the World Series, where home-field advantage is ridiculously based on which league wins the All-Star Game, every other postseason series in every other sport gives that edge to the team with the best record.

The NBA saw the light a few years ago. Its six division champions are still guaranteed playoff berths and slotted into the top three seeds in each conference, but they don’t get home court if they team they’re paired against has a better mark.

It’s past time for the NFL to adopt something similar.

But that doesn’t go far enough.

T h e c u r re n t e i g h t division alignment and scheduling format should be scrapped immediately, since it clearly breeds these sort of travesties. With only four teams in each division, and just six of 16 games against division opponents, it’s really not all that farfetched to wind up with a wretched group such as the NFC South.

The NFL should go back to the six-division alignment that worked just fine for so many years before the league expanded to 32 teams. It might look something like this: — AFC East: Buffalo, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Miami, New England and New York Jets.

— AFC Central: Baltimore, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Tennessee.

— AFC West: Denver, Houston, Kansas City, Oakland and San Diego.

— NFC East: Carolina, Dallas, New York Giants, Philadelphia, Tampa Bay and Washington.

— NFC Central: Chicago, Detroit, Green Bay, Minnesota and St. Louis.

— NFC West: Arizona,

Atlanta, New Orleans, San Francisco and Seattle.

This alignment would preserve most of the most important rivalries, with only one geographical anomaly — Atlanta and New Orleans in the NFC West — that actually has historical precedence. The Falcons and the Saints were members of that division from 1970 until the current alignment was adopted for the 2002 season.

With larger divisions, the odds are much better that at least one worthy team would emerge from each, allowing the NFL to still guarantee automatic berths to each division champion while freeing up two extra wild-card berths for the worthiest teams.

Also, this setup would lead to half of the 16-game schedule being made up of division contests; in the five-team divisions, everyone would still play home and home, while sixteam divisions would have three home-and-homes on a rotating basis and single games against the other two rivals.

The rest of the schedule would be made up of four intra-conference games, and retain the current setup of four games against the opposing conference. It wouldn’t be quite as neat as the current arrangement, but it shouldn’t be much of a problem coming up with a formula — based largely on playing teams with similar records the previous season — that would result in even more parity.

Parity is fine.

A losing team in the playoffs is not.

over the Chiefs JOSH DUBOW

The Associated Press‌

‌ALAMEDA, Calif. — Tony Sparano gathered the Oakland Raiders in a victorious locker room and praised them for sticking together through a 16-game losing streak.

Left tackle Donald Penn then presented Oakland’s interim coach with a game ball that was well earned.

Since taking over from the fired Dennis Allen after four games, Sparano has made the Raiders much more competitive despite their lack of success.

On Thursday night, he fulfilled a promise he made the day he took over to put smiles on his players’ faces with a win as Oakland snapped its yearlong skid by beating the first-place Kansas City Chiefs 24-20.

Sparano said this game ball was the most meaningful he has ever gotten.

“I say that because of what this team has been t h ro u g h a n d h ow fa r we’ve had to come; and how much the guys have stayed together in that locker room,” he said Friday. “I really appreciate it last night, it was nice. But really, they’re the ones that deserve the game balls.”

Sparano had not been part of a winning effort as a head coach since his Miami Dolphins beat the Raiders 34-14 on Dec. 4, 2011.

Sparano was fired after losing the next game and didn’t get his next chance as head coach until this season.

Sparano made small changes like burying a football to symbolize putting the 0-4 start in the past and moving some players around in the locker room. But his biggest impact was keeping the players together and playing hard through the long losing streak.

Oakland was within one score in the fourth quarter in five of Sparano’s first six games before finally breaking through for the win against the Chiefs.

“He’s one of the bright spots out of this season,” Penn said. “Even though our record doesn’t show it, everybody has to see that

since he’s taken over, we’ve gotten better and better.”

The way the Raiders won was especially sweet for Sparano, who also serves as the team’s offensive line coach and has vowed to turn Oakland into a strong running team.

Oakland broke out to a 14-point lead behind two touchdown runs by Latavius Murray, the first rushing touchdowns of the season against the Chiefs.

The Raiders then found themselves trailing in the fourth quarter but rallied with a 17-play, 80-yard drive capped by Derek Carr’s 9-yard TD pass to James Jones with 1:42 remaining.

Oakland then got one last stop following a near colossal mistake when linebackers Sio Moore and Khalil Mack celebrated a sack with an elaborate dance and handshake in the Kansas City backfield while the Chiefs rushed to get a fourth-down play off. Defensive end Justin Tuck alertly called timeout to save the Raiders from embarrassment.

“I don’t chuckle over it, no, no, no,” Sparano said.

“I don’t chuckle over it. I can just imagine what the headline would be today, so I don’t chuckle over it.”

Oakland ran the ball nine times on that drive, with fullback Marcel Reece powering his way to 34 yards on seven carries and Carr converting first downs on two QB sneaks.

The Raiders finished with a season-high 179 yards on the ground, including 112 on four carries by Murray. Murray scored on runs of 11 and 90 yards before leaving with a concussion. He figures to get more playing time once he is fully recovered.

“We finally said as a line enough is enough,” Penn said. “We came out and we did it. We can’t just do it one game. We have to do it more. I want more.

This isn’t enough. We need more.”

NOTES: Sparano was optimistic that G Gabe Jackson (knee) and CB TJ Carrie (ankle) can return in time for the Nov. 30 game at St. Louis.

Blount returns to New England ‌FOXBOROUGH, Mass.

(AP) — There was no name over his locker stall and he had yet to officially secure the number he’ll wear this Sunday.

Still, it was clear LeGarrette Blount was happy to be back with the New England Patriots.

“It feels real good. I was excited to hear about it,” the running back said after Friday’s practice.

After walking to the locker room before his team left the field Monday night at Tennessee, Blount was released by the Steelers. The Patriots, getting along without Stevan Ridley (knee surgery) but on the heels of a breakout game by Jonas Gray, quickly signed Blount to a two-year deal.

So, he wasn’t gone long.

“We tried to sign LeGarrette in the offseason,” said coach Bill Belichick, whose team was beaten out for the free agent by Pittsburgh. “That didn’t work out, which is the NFL; it’s the business part of the NFL. He was released, he was available and we were able to work it out for him to come back here. Glad to have him back.”

Said Blount, who ran for 772 yards and seven touchdowns in the 2013 regular season, then ripped off four TDs and 172 yards in a playoff game against Indianapolis: “I got the news after the waivers was over that they wanted to bring me here and I was excited about it. I wanted to be back. So it’s a good thing that they brought me back.

I’m ready to play ball.”

NFL fines Lockette for hit to the head ‌NEW YORK (AP) — Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Ricardo Lockette has been fined $10,000 by the NFL for striking an opponent in the head.

Lockette was ejected from last Sunday’s game at Kansas City for hitting Chiefs defensive back Kurt Coleman after Coleman shoved him in the back.

Atlanta receivers Roddy White and Devin Hester each were fined $8,268 on Friday for their role in a scrap with the Panthers in

the third quarter last Sunday. Hester dived headfirst into a pile trying to knock Panthers cornerback Josh Norman off teammate Harry Douglas. White struck another player in the head area.

Douglas got the same $8,268 fine for pulling down Norman by the facemask.

Panthers safety Roman Harper was docked the same amount for unnecessary roughness when he hit Hester.

Colorado game might be Mariota’s Autzen finale ANNE M. PETERSON The Associated Press‌

‌EUGENE (AP) — Many people believe that Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota is bound for the NFL after this season is over.

That means Saturday’s game against Colorado could be the junior’s last at Autzen Stadium.

Mariota decided after last season that he’d give the Ducks another go. So far that choice is appearing to be wise: The quarterback is among the top candidates for the Heisman Trophy, and Oregon is No. 2 in the College Football Playoff rankings and poised to appear in the first playoffs.

Mariota hasn’t offered

any hints about his future this season, going as far as saying he hasn’t really thought about it yet. So he’s trying not to put too much weight on the finality aspect of the last home game, at least for himself.

“It’s tough to kind of think about those things because it can become a distraction,” he said. “But for the most part, just enjoy it. Enjoy it with these seniors. A lot of these guys that are going to be leaving as seniors are some of the closest friends that I’ve made here. It’s going to be an awesome experience and Autzen is always fun to play in and no matter what we’ll enjoy it.”

Should Mariota decide to

go to the NFL, many expect him to be selected in the top five picks.

But first things first, and that means Colorado. Oregon (9-1, 6-1 Pac-12), No. 3 in the AP rankings, was a 32½ -point favorite at home against the Buffaloes (2-8, 0-7).

Mariota is a big reason for the advantage. He has set seven career records for the Ducks, including passing yards (9,122) and touchdown passes (92).

With nine yards rushing against the Buffaloes, he’ll become the fifth in an exclusive group of quarterbacks who have thrown for 9,000 yards and run for another 2,000. Among the names on that list are Tim

Tebow and Colin Kaepernick.

Here are some other things to look for when the Ducks host Colorado on Saturday.

UNCERTAIN STARTER: Colorado quarterback Sefo Liufau, who has thrown for 26 touchdowns this season, hasn’t officially been cleared to play after sustaining a concussion.

Backup Jordan Gehrke will get the start if Liufau can’t.

Liufau said he’s ready to go, but coach Mike MacIntyre said earlier this week that he’s not at 100 percent.

“It’s just been a normal week. Obviously, I think we’re splitting more reps.

Obviously, we want to make sure I don’t have any

relapses with my concussion but it’s fine and normal,” Liufau said.

OREGON’S INJURIES: The Ducks are coming off a bye, which gave them a chance to rest up from an injuryplagued victory over Utah.

Oregon lost tight end Pharaoh Brown for the season with a right knee injury.

Also injured was center Hroniss Grasu. But Oregon should see the return of tackle Andre Yruretagoyena, who has missed eight games with a left leg injury. Doug Brenner, who has taken over at center in Grasu’s absence, said: “It was funny, we jogged over for pass rush in practice and I don’t think any of the D-line guys knew that

(Andre) was back yet and they all cheered a little bit when he went out for the first rep. So that was cool.”

SPOILER? Don’t think the Buffaloes weren’t paying attention when unranked Oregon State, sitting in the basement of the Pac12, pulled off a 35-27 upset victory over then-No. 7 Arizona State last Saturday. “We just want to go in there and go 1-0. It sounds cheesy, but if we spoil them and win, that’s all cool and all and everyone calls us a spoiler. But, we honestly think that we can win and that’s our goal and the mentality that we’re going in with. We just want to go in there and win,” Liufau said.

Oldest college rivalry reaches 150 games RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press‌

‌NEW YORK — The memories of the last Lafayette-Lehigh game in which George Hossenlopp played still sting 50 years later.

The former Lafayette quarterback was part of college football’s most-played rivalry three times, including the 100th meeting in 1964. He never did win one. That last game against Lehigh and his childhood friend, Joe Weis, ended in a 6-6 tie. To this day, Hossenlopp thinks about what he could have done differently.

The two old high school teammates from New Jersey will face off again — sort of — on Saturday at Yankee Stadium, though this time it’s only for the coin toss.

They will be the honorary captains when Lehigh and Lafayette play for the 150th time.

And if Lafayette wins, Hossenlopp is adding it to his record.

“That’s why I’m going to be rooting hard,” he said. “It will feel like I was part of it.”

This is rivalry season in college football. Last week, Auburn and Georgia played for the 118th time in the Deep South’s oldest rivalry.

Southern California-UCLA meet for the 83rd time on Saturday, and Harvard and Yale play for the 131st time.

There’s the Iron Bowl (Alabama-Auburn) and the Egg Bowl (Mississippi-Mississippi State), the Territorial Cup (ArizonaArizona State) and the Apple Cup (Washington-Washington State).

There is Army-Navy.

None of have played more often than Lehigh and Lafayette, two Patriot League schools with a combined enrollment of about 10,000, located 17 miles from each other in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley.

Lehigh University in Bethlehem and Lafayette College in Easton first began playing football against each other in 1884 — twice per season at first and three times in 1891. They didn’t play in 1896 because of a dispute over eligible players, but they haven’t

missed since.

“You can’t have one without the other. Salt and pepper,” said Andy Coen, who is in his ninth season as Lehigh’s coach. “That connection right there gives the staying power to this rivalry. We played through World War I. We played through World War II. We played through the Kennedy assassination. All these different events that have transpired, where other rivalries took a year off, this rivalry has never taken a year off.”

Hossenlopp and Weis grew up in Nutley, New Jersey, played together on the same state high school championship football team, and then headed west to the blue-collar industrial towns tucked in the mountains of eastern Pennsylvania for college. They became captains of the teams, and their personal rivalry meant as much as the one between the schools.

“We kind of laughed about putting a little bit extra into hitting your friend,” said Weis, 71,

who now lives with his wife of 47 years in Salt Lake City.

They both quickly got the message about how important the season finale was to the locals.

“It doesn’t matter what we do as long as we beat Lafayette,” Weis recalled.

Weis’ Lehigh team did just that the first two meetings, both onescore games. The 1963 game was delayed a week due to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

In 1964, both teams were completing forgettable seasons.

Lehigh had won once and Lafayette not at all entering the game.

Weis, who played halfback and defensive back, doesn’t remember all that much about it. He recalls catching a pass for a long-gainer and taking a big hit that left him with a concussion.

They’re not sure, but Hossenlopp thinks he might have been in on that hit.

Hossenlopp’s memory is much clearer. Losses have a way of lingering.

Cal, Stanford enter Big Game seeking bowl eligibility ANTONIO GONZALEZ The Associated Press‌

‌BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — California has returned to relevance and respectability in Sonny Dykes’ second season as coach.

Stanford has slipped back to mediocrity under David Shaw this year.

The surprising developments on both sides of San Francisco Bay give the 117th Big Game quite the twist.

In a change from recent seasons, Saturday’s meeting between Stanford (5-5, 3-4 Pac-12) and Cal (5-5, 3-5) has big implications for both teams. The winner will become bowl-eligible, and the loser will be left scrambling to seal that important postseason distinction in next week’s season finale.

“We’ve talked a lot about steps this year. It’s kind of the next step for us,” Dykes said.

Making a bowl game means more than just a chance to play another game. It’s an extra two weeks of practices, which is especially important for returning players, and added exposure for the program — which never hurts in recruiting.

Dykes surmised that Stanford has had about a season’s worth of practices just preparing for BCS bowl games each of the past four years. Going to a bowl game

also is an experience that players relish and something to show for what they accomplished.

S ta n fo rd f i f t h -yea r senior nose tackle David Parry, for instance, said the season would be a complete failure if the two-time defending Pac12 champions didn’t even make a bowl game.

Few would disagree with that assessment.

The Cardinal are coming off consecutive losses — to

Utah and Oregon — for the first time in five years.

They haven’t missed a bowl since Jim Harbaugh’s second year as coach in 2008, when they lost their final three games to finish 5-7.

The Big Game is Stanford’s best chance left to clinch a non-losing record.

The Cardinal close their season at No. 11 UCLA (8-2, 5-2) next week, while Cal finishes at home against BYU (6-4) in a non-conference game.

‌SEATTLE (AP) — Mike Riley asked for a show of hands in the meeting room.

He wanted everyone who was on the field for one of the worst losses in his coaching tenure at Oregon State to acknowledge they were there.

Getting routed 69-27 can leave an impression.

“I guess there are many different buttons that are pushed about motivation but that one may be very, very appropriate for most of us here,” Riley said.

A year after getting blitzed at home by Washington, the Beavers (5-5, 2-5 Pac-12) travel north on Saturday to face the Huskies (6-5, 2-5) in a crucial game for both programs. The past two times facing Washington have left lasting impacts on Oregon State.

Two years ago, Oregon State was undefeated through six games and ranked No. 7 in the country when the Beavers traveled to Seattle and were handed a 20-17 defeat by the Huskies.

Including that loss in October 2012, the Beavers are 15-15 in the 30 games since.

Then came last year when the Huskies rushed for 530 yards — the second most in school history — and had seven rushing touchdowns in the 69-27 blowout. Three different Huskies topped 100 yards rushing, including Dwayne Washington and Deontae Cooper, who should share the bulk of the carries on Saturday night.

“I would hope that we have lots of motivation,” Riley said.

This could be the best chance at bowl eligibility for both schools. Washington and Oregon State close the regular season with rivals Washington State and Oregon, respectively.

And neither program wants its opportunity at playing in a bowl game and getting extra weeks of practice hanging in the balance going into the final week of the regular season.

Portland State can’t keep up with Eagles ‌P O RT L A N D ( A P) — Jabari Wilson rushed for three touchdowns and Vernon Adams Jr. passed for 309 yards and two more as Eastern Washington scored six TDs after halftime, defeating Portland State 56-34 Friday night and winning its third-straight Big Sky Conference championship.

The three-peat is a first for Eastern (10-2, 7-1), which also earns the Big Sky’s automatic berth to the FCS playoffs for the eighth time in 11 seasons.

How should I advertise my business? ‌Q : If I spend more money on advertising, will I get more customers?

A: The definitive answer is — maybe. To get customers, businesses need to promote. Promotion includes advertising, business cards, social networking, trade shows, press releases, community activities, a website, word of mouth and all the other ways you let people know your business exists.

Most businesses spend between 5 and 10 percent of their gross sales on advertising.

Spending more might not be the answer. Sometimes the answer is spending advertising dollars more

effectively Down to by a s k i n g customers how they heard about your business and then directing your advertising expenditures accordingly.

Arlene Repetition Soto i s i m p o rtant. Infocomm research shows customers need to hear your business name 8 to 15 times before they buy from you.

One ad in any medium is not enough to attract the interest of customers.

BUSINESS

Each media outlet will have account representatives who are well versed in helping you design and plan your advertising campaign.

Social media is becoming a hot method for reaching customers. To be effective, using Facebook or Twitter or any other social media site requires time and effort. Many small business owners don’t use these tools because they don’t know how or don’t have the time to dedicate to making them work. Develop a social media strategy before starting a social media campaign. Research the best sites to reach your target customers. Learn what is important to communicate

and how often your audience wants to hear from you.

Get advice from experts who have been successful with social media marketing.

It is important to know who your customers are.

How do they like to get information? What do they read, listen to, watch, do for entertainment or belong to? The more thoroughly you investigate their habits, the better you can direct your advertising dollars.

Information about various sectors of the public and how they buy is available from industry reports, trade magazines, media representatives, other

businesses and government reports. If you are not sure how to locate market data, you may want to request a market research report from the Small Business Development Center (SBDC).

When to mind employees’ business

(AP Photo/Carlos’ Bakery, Adam Bourcier)

In this Oct. 30, 2014 photo provided by Carlo’s Bakery, Celia Concepcion, who owns bakeries in El Salavador, ices cupcakes at the bakery in Hoboken, N.J. Concepcion’s visit to the U.S. was sponsored by the Business Council for Peace, a program that seeks to boost small businesses, and in turn the economies, of violence-stricken countries.

Group mentors entrepreneurs from war-torn countries JOYCE M. ROSENBERG AP Business Writer‌

‌N EW YORK (AP) — Karina Koper pays for cabs for her employees to keep them safe from gangs when they go to and from her 53 shops in Guatemala.

She also pays extortion money so gangs won’t attack her stores.

But what was on Koper’s mind during a trip to New York last month was learning the nuts and bolts of running a food operation and making her coffee, yogurt and natural foods stores more profitable.

Koper was one of 28 business owners recently in the U.S. under a program sponsored by the Business Council for Peace, or Bpeace, an organization that helps provide mentoring for entrepreneurs from countries torn by war or violent crime. If companies in those countries become more profitable, they can hire more people and lessen the likelihood of civil war and violence, Bpeace CEO Toni Maloney says. The program, which receives State Department

funding, has also helped owners in Afghanistan and Rwanda.

At Chop’t, a salad store in Manhattan, Koper learned some of the finer points of being an employer.

For example: It’s part of a store manager’s job to foster a good working atmosphere, unlike in Guatemala, where managers tend to be aloof and distant from their employees.

“I see managers listening to people here,” Koper says. “I was not expecting this.”

Koper learned stores perform better when managers monitor sales, profit and expense figures.

In Guatemala, owners usually don’t share financial data with managers, Koper said. She also picked up pointers on how to make salads and serve customers. For instance, when employees pour dressing, they shouldn’t look at the salad bowl. They should make eye contact with customers to get a “that’s enough” signal.

Bpeace brought the owners to the U.S. for four weeks for classes on running a business and then matched them with small

businesses that mentored them and helped them network. After returning home, they can get more help online, and Bpeace will send mentors to help them work on their individual challenges, CEO Maloney says.

Veronica Mejia Handal, owner of La Cochinita, a pork products seller in El Salvador, got mentoring in social media marketing and production at D’Artagnan, a Newark, New Jersey seller of poultry and meat products like duck, venison and pheasant.

While networking, she solved one of her biggest problems: packaging that tears and loses its vacuum seal when ribs and other bones are inserted. A D’Artagnan supplier said she could help — her company has a salesperson in El Salvador.

Mejia Handal has also contended with gang violence in El Salvador. Recently a man tried to extort money from her, threatening to poison her pigs’ drinking water. Unemployment is a reason there so many young people join gangs, she says.

“People don’t want to hire them, so they start stealing,” she says.

Some of the visiting owners said their problems result from the way business is conducted in their countries. Buying ingredients is hard in El Salvador because monopolies control the cost of flour, sugar, milk and other goods, according to Celia Concepcion and Jenny Ruiz, who between them own 23 bake shops. The women spent a week at Carlo’s Bakery in Hoboken, New Jersey, met with suppliers and learned they can order ingredients from the U.S. that are cheaper than in El Salvador.

They also worked in the kitchen of the bakery, owned by Buddy Valastro, star of the reality TV show “Cake Boss.” Concepcion and Ruiz learned techniques like applying icing to cupcakes in a swirl. When they’ve mastered it, they want to create upscale confections so they can raise their prices and turn a higher profit.

“I will try to do the things I practiced here,” Ruiz says.

‌COOS BAY — When do employees’ social media postings become their employer’s business? How about their credit report and health records? Should employers use wearable electronics to track workers’ every move?

Jeff Burgess of the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries will answer these questions at a Dec. 4 workshop, “The Reaches of Privacy and Confidentiality in the Workplace,” hosted by the Oregon Employer Council South Coast.

Burgess, a technical assistant for BOLI, said he developed this presentation last year and illustrates it with real-life examples from Oregon employers. The key to regulating employees’ personal conduct is using due process, he said — having fair policies that spell out expectations and the consequences of infractions.

Especially with social media, it’s important to make decisions that don’t violate employment law, Burgess said. For example, if a supervisor wants to see if Employee A has been exhibiting poor judgment on Facebook, it might be best to delegate the Facebook search to Employee B, so that the supervisor doesn’t learn irrelevant things about Employee A that might bias the supervisor.

Burgess said that as with any workplace issue, employers can benefit from calling the technical assistance section of BOLI and running a proposed policy by the staff to find out if it violates the law. “We have a firewall between our area and enforcement,” Burgess said, so employers needn’t worry about being punished if they discover they’re doing something wrong.

The workshop will run 8 a.m.-noon in the large conference room at South Coast Education Service District, 1350 Teakwood, Coos Bay. The cost is $59.

Polls: Employers still prioritize health coverage TOM MURPHY and JENNIFER AGIESTA Associated Press‌

‌E mployers squeezed by years of rising medical costs and pressure from the health care overhaul are still making employee health insurance a priority, but that coverage may grow skimpier in the coming years.

A poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that companies that offer health insurance see it as a key tool to attract

workers and keep them on the job. But they’re also sweating the expense, with 86 percent citing the cost of coverage as a key factor in picking a plan.

A separate survey from the benefits consultant Mercer found that only 4 percent of all large employers say they will likely drop their employee health plans within the next five years, a figure that has trended down over the past few years.

“We’ve been hearing lots of people blowing alarms about employers dropping plans and getting out of the

business, but that’s never what our data showed,” said Beth Umland, Mercer’s director of health and benefits research.

The survey results run contrary to speculation among benefits insiders that more companies would consider dropping insurance coverage for their employees. They figured companies might do so in order to curb health care costs, which have climbed faster than inflation for years for many employers.

The health care overhaul also has added more costs in some cases with taxes,

fees and coverage mandates.

Additionally, the overhaul created public insurance exchanges on which people can buy coverage. That could offer a safety net for companies that had offered benefits only because their employees had no other way to get them.

Many companies have pared their coverage by making their workers pay a bigger share of the doctor bill. In some cases, they’ve also cut coverage for spouses of workers who can find insurance elsewhere. But business owners

say they still see several reasons to offer some coverage.

A total of 81 percent that offer insurance in the APNORC poll said they do so mainly because it’s the right thing to do, while about 60 percent say it helps recruit and keep workers.

Kinetic Systems Vice President and co-owner Judy Solomon says she has to provide insurance to attract and keep engineers when competing against bigger companies.

Her Boston business has 32 full-time workers and makes equipment that

helps control vibrations for sensitive scientific instruments She also thinks her lower-wage workers should have coverage as well.

“I won’t drop it no matter how much it goes up (in price),” she said. “I’ve sustained as much as an 18 percent increase in some years.”

Companies are generally wary about making big changes to their benefits to avoid pushing employees to leave, especially if unemployment rates are low and the pool of possible replacements is weak.

Humanaut, a branding agency in Chattanooga, Tennessee, runs a site called UnstuffGifts. com that lets you find gifts based on the recipient’s interests. For example, a hipster might like a distillery tour. Adventure buffs might enjoy a day of

indoor sky jumping. A hiking enthusiast could appreciate a state park pass.

“The spirit of giving is a wonderful tradition. But the truth is, most of us simply don’t need more stuff,” says David Littlejohn, Humanaut’s creative director.

“We created Unstuff so that people could give thoughtful gifts with a clear conscience, knowing their gift will be appreciated, used and never contribute to the planet’s growing amount of trash and waste.”

Do you have a skill or talent? Know-how makes a great gift, says Jeff Milchen, co-founder of the American Independent Business Alliance.

He suggests giving away your expertise in, say, web design, pet training, first aid, photography or a craft. Neat freaks might offer closet organization or cleaning services.

Tech-savvy teens might give several hours’ worth of their digital skills to more senior relatives.

No worries about size, breakage or where to store it; now that’s a gift you can use.

suburban streets.

They run between and behind our quiet suburban backyards.

When there is no alley where the tree trimmers can park their giant orange and white trucks, their bucket cranes and their noisy chippers, they have to leave them out front and cart their saws and ropes and ladders around parked cars, down narrow side yards and across backyards.

Enjoy water fixtures all year by winterizing DEAN FOSDICK Associated Press‌

‌For many people with backyard ponds, fountains and other water-garden fixtures, the arrival of cold weather means draining the pipes and pulling the plug.

But water gardens can be attractive winter gardens, too, with the right preparation and landscaping.

Turning off a garden’s water fixtures may not be necessary, depending on where you live, said Keith Folsom, president of Springdale Water Gardens in Greenville, Virginia.

“Their wintertime effect is always different and attractive with the use of landscape lighting and the right plants.”

“We had an extremely cold winter here last year but it wasn’t a problem,” he said. “Pay attention and know how much water you’re using below the ice.

You have to keep that flow topped off.”

Ensure that water lines and fixtures are drained if you do decide to turn them off so they won’t expand with freezing and break, Folsom said. “Running water, on the other hand, prevents icing. That’s one of the reasons I tell people to keep them running.”

Landscaping around water fixtures can mean simply adding a few evergreens for contrast against snow, or stringing some lights around the ice.

“People who live in the South will most likely

Hardy plants like these water lilies in the Brooklyn Botanical Garden in New York can be repositioned into deeper water to avoid potentially fatal ice buildups. Aquatic plants should be pruned or pinched off before the onset of winter.

keep their ponds going, and use cold and frosttolerant landscaping for visual interest,” said Tavia Tawney, technical services manager for Aquascape Inc. in Chicago.

Tips for preparing your pond for the winter freezeup:

• Remove debris before it can decompose. That prevents organic rot, loss of oxygen and an accumulation of toxic gases. “But the bigger problem comes if you stir it up,” Folsom said.

“That can turn up bacteria that will be harmful to fish in winter.”

• Use netting. Cover the water with a screen, sweep the surface with a long-handled net or install skimmers like those used to vacuum swimming pools.

• P r u n e . P i n c h o f f aquatic plants as they die back. Reposition your hardy potted water lilies into deeper water. “Tropical plants will die after a hard frost and should be removed then, or you can bring the tropicals inside the house for winter,” Tawney said.

• Stop feeding the fish.

“It is very important to stop feeding the fish once water temperatures reach 50 degrees Fahrenheit, as

People living in warm climates generally don’t have to drain the pipes or pull the plug on their water fixtures in winter. they go into a deep slumber and do not digest the food they may eat,” Tawney said.

• Use a bubbler or tank heater if you have fish.

“We use an aerator bubbler to add oxygen to the pond if the falls are turned off,” Tawney said. “Once we are continuously below 20 degrees Fahrenheit, we use a supplemental heater to help the bubbler keep a

dinner-plate-size hole in the ice.”

It’s best to maintain water gardens throughout the year rather than scramble to get things done before winter sets in, she said.

“It is not advisable to do any major cleaning once the fish are ‘hibernating’ because that is very stressful for them,” she said.

Gift Guide: Help your selfie with some add-on gear Triggers and extenders now on the market RON HARRIS

Associated Press‌

‌ATLANTA — Not all selfies are created equal.

Some are blurry, are poorly framed or miss the action entirely because you might be scrubbing your thumb fishing for a virtual shutter button as the moment passes you by.

Although phone manufacturers are trying to help by building in tools for better selfies, many of these have their limits. For better selfies, consider some of these gadgets for yourself or your loved ones.

Halo/Hisy ($25): This one is really simple.

The Halo is a small plastic button that serves as a wireless shutter trigger for your phone’s camera. Its only job is to trigger your phone’s shutter when you click the button. One function, one result.

My tests with the Halo for my Android phone went smoothly. The company makes an iPhone version called Hisy. You need to install its free camera app, Shutter Panorama, as neither Halo nor Hisy works with the regular camera app that comes with the phone.

S h u t te r P a n o ra m a doesn’t have too many manual settings or special features. But the device does a good job in allowing me to place my phone in places other than my hand. I got some nice shots of myself and my dog by putting the phone against a rock in the front yard and sitting a few feet away.

It’s more elegant than setting the camera’s timer and running to get in the shot.

Kodak Pixpro SL25 ($300): The Pixpro SL25 from Kodak is essentially a camera lens that mounts onto your phone, allowing for higher resolution than what your phone’s camera can capture. The Pixpro communicates with your phone over Wi-Fi and lets you compose the image on the phone’s screen. Once the photos are snapped using the shutter button on the Pixpro, the phone serves primarily to review and share the images to

social media services.

The downside is you have a second device to carry around, which defeats the purpose of taking selfies on the fly. The upside is image quality. The Pixpro shoots sharp 16 megapixel photos and full high-definition video at 1080p. This quality is common for rear cameras, but not the front ones for selfies.

The Pixpro has foldout arms to attach to my phone, such that the two devices act as one. That, in itself, isn’t different from using just the phone for selfies. But I was able to hold the Pixpro and press the shutter in ways I could not with my phone. For instance, I was able to have my finger rest on a physical button on the Pixpro instead of searching on the phone’s touch screen for a virtual one.

I had a lot of success using the Pixpro unattached to my phone as well.

It has a wide-angle lens that fits plenty of action into the frame.

Some phones are coming with better front cameras. The one on HTC’s new Desire Eye is 13 megapixels, the same as the rear camera. There’s even a front flash. You’ll still get sharper images with the Kodak attachment.

Satechi Smart Selfie Extension Arm Monopod ($50): This telescoping monopod from Satechi helps get more than just yourself in the frame. Similar to the Kodak unit, this monopod has spring-loaded rubber pieces that grip the phone on its sides, holding it firmly in place. From there, you simply extend the telescoping device out to its full three feet and get lots of buddies or surroundings into the shot.

What really helps is that

with a birds-eye view and other vantage points longer than my arm.

The Satechi unit worked fine with my phone’s default camera, but not with other camera apps I enjoy, such as FxCamera and Candy Camera.

Note models do let you fit more people in by stitching multiple images together.

You tilt the phone left and right, and the Note’s software does the magic behind the scenes. The shot won’t be as instant, though, as what the monopod can provide.

Pope to meet with autistic kids to end stigma ‌VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis will meet with autistic children and their families in a bid to help raise awareness and end the stigma and isolation of people living with autism spectrum disorders.

The Saturday audience will cap an international co n fe re n ce o n a u t i s m being hosted this week by the Vatican’s health care office. Organizers said Tuesday it was the biggest medical conference of its kind on autism, gathering more than 650 experts

from 57 countries.

The Rev. P. Augusto Chendi of the Pontifical Council for Health Care Workers told reporters the aim of the conference and the papal audience is to “help break the isolation, and in many cases the stigma, that surrounds people affected by autistic spectrum disorders.”

While autism is increasingly diagnosed in places like the United States, where about 1 in 68 children are said to be on the spectrum, it is

still largely unknown and undiagnosed elsewhere, including in the Vatican’s own backyard of Italy, said Dr. Stefano Vicari, head of pediatric neuropsychiatry at the Vatican-owned Bambin Gesu hospital in Rome.

Francis, who has shown great ease around children with special needs, will deliver a speech to the hundreds gathered in the Vatican audience hall.

The session will be p u n c t u a te d by m u s i c and movement for the

children.

Autism experts said parents of autistic children require particular pastoral care since they are at high risk of getting divorced due to the emotional and financial stress o f d ea l i n g w i t h t h e i r child’s disorder.

The Vatican’s top health official, Monsignor Zygmunt Zimowski, said his office chose to focus on The Associated Press‌ autism for its conference Pope Francis delivers his blessing at the end of a special audience he this year to give families held for members of Catholic medical associations, in the Paul VI hall, affected by autism hope at the Vatican on Saturday. and attention.

Kids should save ‌D ear Mary: My son is saving cash in envelopes.

That seems kind of cumbersome. What is your opinion? Why not in a savings account and keep track of the amounts for each category? — Dick Dear Dick: I agree. Kids need savings accounts. In my book, “Raising Financially ConfiEveryday dent Kids,” I Cheapskate recommend that kids be required to save at least 10 percent o f e ve r y thing they receive in a real savings account, Mary in a bank Hunt or credit union.

Of course, your son could save more than 10 percent, and keep a record for how much in his savings account he is allocating for say “College Savings” or “New Bike” “Summer Camp” an so forth.

Since most banks now allow customers to track their accounts online, your son could watch his money closely via computer or other mobile device.

Tell him that I’m proud of him and those envelopes! Not many kids are aware of how important it is to take good care of their money. But now he needs to learn about a real, live bank, THE FAMILY CIRCUS too, by keeping some of his money there.

Dear Mary: Your column is the first thing I turn to in my paper. I have a problem with a cellphone provider and need your help.

When I purchased my service from Verizon, they stated a fee for all the services. Later I found out they had included a feature called a HOT SPOT which 1) I did not request, 2) I would not use because 3) I did not I did not know the technology.

I discovered this in August 2014. This feature never appeared on my account billing: two years at $20 a month or $480 total for a non-requested, unidentified service.

The manager of the local Verizon office denied it first and then said nothing could be done. He was unwilling to help.

What would you do to resolve this situation with a company that don’t seem to have any rules? I called and wrote (with documentation) to the Minnesota State Attorney General’s office and they responded that basically they never get involved. — Jan D ea r Ja n : I wo u l d gather up all of my documentation, write out a detailed recount of events and march straight to the local Small Claims Court.

This is a practice known in the industry as “cramming,” where small charges are added to a bill with the subscriber’s consent or disclosure.

These may be disguised as a tax or some other common fee, and may be several dollars or even a few cents.

The crammer’s intent is that the subscriber will overlook and ultimately pay these small charges instead of fighting them.

I think you have a great case here. Small Claims courts exist for this kind of dispute and make a MODERATELY CONFUSED way possible for ordinary people to have their cases heard in court. Typically a filing fee will be $15 to $35.

That’s all you would have to lose, and a whole lot more to gain.

I hope you take action. A simple Internet search for “How to File a Case in Small Claims Court” will give you a great deal of information and confidence.

If you carry through, be sure to let us know how this turns out.

Mary invites questions at mary@everydaycheapskate. com, or c/o Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2099, Cypress, CA 90630.

Strive for perfection.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Cash will come your way if you use your imagination. Avoid confrontations. Being a team player will bring higher returns than going it alone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You need to do some research.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Your hard work will pay off. A get-together will give you a welcome break and provide an opportunity to brag about your progress. A challenge will excite you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Too much idle time will lead to boredom and irritability. Start a new hobby or do something physical. An older relative will offer insight that will help you move forward.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Pick up the pace and lift your spirits.

A short jaunt to an unusual destination will give your mind something new to think about. Take a close friend along.

Hello Ladies: The Movie: HBO opted not to order a second season of this bittersweet sitcom about a gawky Brit (the brilliant Stephen Merchant) now living in Los Angeles and haplessly trying to date beauties way above his genetic pay grade, so this TV-movie wrapup is especially welcome.

Sunday 8 p.m. on KEZI 2014 American Music Awards: Pitbull returns as host as the annual event airs from the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live. As usual, the three-hour special — whose winners are determined by fan voting — will be stuffed with stars and categories representing various music genres. Among those slated to appear: Taylor Swift (offering the world-premiere performance of her tune “Blank Space”), Fergie, Lorde, One Direction, Iggy Azalea, Mary J. Blige, Sam Smith, Charli XCX and 5 Seconds of Summer.

Wednesday 8 p.m. on KLSR

The Voice: A “Top 10” of anything represents the cream of the given crop, and that’s the case for this season’s contestants in this competition in the new episode “Live Top 10 Performances.” You can bet that the remaining contenders will give it all they’ve got, since two of them will be eliminated on Tuesday’s show. Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani and Pharrell Williams are the coaches/judges. Carson Daly is the host.

Hell’s Kitchen: The blind taste test always is one of the biggest challenges that contestants on this show can face, and those remaining get their shot at it in the new episode “8 Chefs Compete.” The outcome of the latest dinner isn’t good, since Gordon Ramsay finds reason to be irritated with both teams — and to have each offer up one of its members to be eliminated.

Tuesday 8 p.m. on KLSR

Fox’s Cause for Paws: An AllStar Dog Spectacular: Twotime Oscar winner — and longtime animal advocate — Hilary Swank is a co-host (with Jane Lynch) and executive producer of this new two-hour special, which encourages the adoption of rescue dogs through relevant stories.
