Lighthouse School starts talks to move

Mr. Bulldog raises $40,000

Airport district enters negotiations with K-8 charter school, NB school district ■

BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

“I’ve always had a passion for it,” Renae said. “I don’t see the ranch ever being outside the family, even after I’m gone,” said Crystal Harper, the Koester’s grown daughter, who has four children. The 96-acre Lone Cedar Ranch is home to 22 mother Angus cows, two bulls, five doeling goats and several pigs. All the livestock have free range on the property. The Koesters, who have had jobs off the ranch in the past, originally had the livestock for their own family’s use, but recently have increased the number of animals in order to sell beef, goat and pork. The goal is to build the cow herd up to 40 and to add a few more pigs. Cows and pigs have been part of the ranch since Charles Henderer registered a deed on 321 acres more than 150

NORTH BEND — Lighthouse School is taking its first steps toward moving out. The Coos County Airport District board authorized executive director Theresa Cook last Thursday to begin negotiations with the North Bend School District and K-8 charter school Lighthouse’s proposed relocation to the former ACS/Xerox call center. Following a grade reconfiguration decision March 17 — which will move all fifth-graders to the two elementary schools and leave the middle school with grades 6-8 this fall — Lighthouse is in limbo. If Lighthouse can make the move, 450 students On the agenda would occupy each of the 5 p.m. Monday: North Bend three remaining schools, School Board meeting in school taking pressure off the middistrict offices to discuss updates dle school and Hillcrest.

Every “if” led to North Bend School Board member Julianna Seldon’s vote against reconfiguration last month. “I don’t see this working if Lighthouse is not able to obtain the new space,” she said. “The K-5 model is contingent on that space being viable for Lighthouse.” Timing is every school official’s biggest concern. “We have to be open for school in late August, which gives us a very small window to have all this done,” said Lighthouse board treasurer Mike Seldon. “Unfortunately, speed is of the essence. It makes us anxious, too, because you don’t have as much time to think things through. We’re not expecting it to be perfect when it opens, but it has to be functional.” The 18,000-square-foot call center is bigger than Lighthouse’s current space, though Lighthouse budget committee member John Gibson said it’s not just about the building’s size. “Kids can roam, be out in the woods and use different educational places for them to learn,” he said. Lighthouse has proposed a $10,000 per month lease, though those terms will be worked out during negotiations. North Bend School Board chair Megan Jacquot said under Lighthouse’s charter, the school will receive “plenty of money to cover the lease.”

Family keeping a promise Owners of Elkton ranch are fifth generation farmers BY CRAIG REED The News-Review

“I want the family to

ELKTON (AP) — There was only one cedar tree on the property alongside the Umpqua River, so Vern Clemo called it the Lone Cedar Ranch. The tree finally died of old age and is now gone, but the ranch that has been in the same family for more than 150 years and has survived several ownership changes continues today as a working operation under the management of owners Matt and Renae Koester. The Koesters are the fifth generation to work the ranch that’s a few miles downriver from Elkton. “We’re the caretakers until the next generation takes over,” said Renae Koester last week. “All four of our children have an interest in the place. They’re going to see 200 years on this place.” “We made a promise to Vern to keep

The class will look at the diseases that stem from inflammation and discuss nonpharmaceutical approaches for dealing with pain and inflammation such as infrared light therapy.

Preferences for control of Congress are tight, but Republicans have gained on Democrats since January. Thirtysix percent in last month’s poll said

Chronic inflammation has become a common problem in society today. And Coos County is no different, say three health care workers. They are going to educate residents on how they can change their attitudes and lifestyles to minimize, or even do away with, chronic inflammation. The condition includes a laundry list of diseases, such as allergies, fibromyalgia and hyperthyroidism. “Our culture needs to have

The World Newspaper The fate of the South Coast Community Foundation has taken a turn. At its meeting Tuesday night, the Coos Bay City Council voted against becoming a member of the foundation, the nonprofit organization being proposed to manage half of the millions of dollars in community service fees the Jordan Cove Energy Project would pay the region if it gets federal and state permits and if it receives a long-term property tax exemption. » CEP rejected by Coos Bay City Council, county commissioners Lee Byer the problem with and the reason among many sensible voters of Coos County are against supporting the formation is because it is not only premature but the way the bylaws are written, and no accountability, plus their sessions are closed and the people of Coos County believe in open forums, no more closed door meetings, and good ol boys cronie'ism. All anyone of sincere concern wants is what is reasonable and prudent, not hidden objectives that The LNG project has been plagued with since its inception... Tracie Rick Skinner You might consider writing a positive article on how fortunate our community is to have such upstanding involved and QUALIFIED people heading up the SCCF. These people want nothing more than to better our community for the families that live here! Kim Payne The World newspaper's reporting on this subject has been woefully one sided. I sure hope your readers have the presence of mind to do their own investigating and learn the issues for themselves because they are not getting accurate/unbiased information through this venue. The World Newspaper A work group of local elected officials is still fine-tuning the South Coast Community Foundation’s bylaws. The most recent updates give the proposed “members” (only the port and North Bend City Council have signed on so far) more control over how the foundation is formed and how directors are appointed. » Dissection of SCCF bylaws continues Tracie Rick Skinner Thank you! Great information. The World Newspaper “We get a lot of people from out of the county and they are inexperienced,” Coos County sheriff’s Sgt. Pat Downing said. “They don’t know that they really need to have spotters if they are jumping dunes.” » ATV accident serves as precautionary tale Nicole Osterson I am sorry this lady was injured , but us local riders must take an online class which is not free and mandatory to ride that gives all the do's and don'ts . Do out of town people not have do this? Rich Burkholder Yes anyone who comes and rides in the dunes are required by state law to do the safety course. Out of town people do also. All the rental companies require by state law that they do safety training. They have to do the paperwork which is the same material online and a video. The World Newspaper North Bend police identified the man whose body was found behind 1540 Sherman Ave. yesterday afternoon as 38-year-old Trevor M. Glass, who they say was a transient. » Transient's North Bend death still under investigation Krystie Chappelle So strange. It seems one (or more) transients die in the Coos Area almost every year. Condolences to his grieving family/friends. The World Newspaper Special education students are getting the help they need as they go through school, but a new state report shows they may lack support as they near graduation. » Special education on the right track Gregory Dalton You should consider doing a story on the lack of psychiatric services for children in our area. Kids shouldn't have to travel for hours to get psychiatric testing and shouldn't have to wait months for care they need now. The World Newspaper Congratulations to North Bend's Wyatt Cunningham, who set a new school record in the high jump by clearing 6 feet, 10 inches today in a meet at North Bend. He is the state leader for the event this season. Mike Wright I don't know you wyatt, but congratulations to you young man go all the way !!

Opinion theworldlink.com/news/opinion

When facts become casualties Rep. Mike Rogers, the Michigan Republican who heads the House Intelligence Committee, recently announced he’s quitting his job to host a radio talk show. Sure, he will make a lot more money in the private sector and leave a dismally dysfunctional institution that is now viewed favorably by only a handful of Americans. And since House Republicans foolishly limit committee chairmen to six-year terms, Rogers would have to yield his powerful post in two years anyway. Still,it’s shocking — and revealing — when a senior lawmaker thinks he can wield more influence running a radio show than a major Congressional committee. In an interview with the Washington Post, Rogers boasted about the “very large national platform” he would acquire “to talk to people in their cars and living rooms and homes every single night.” His goal is to “move the needle on the 2016 elections and the conversation ... about America’s future.” In one sense, Rogers is well-qualified for his new gig. He appeared on major Sunday talk shows 26 times last year and another eight times already this year — more than any other political figure. But in another sense, Rogers might be too reasonable or thoughtful for a medium dominated by devoted ideologues who divide the world into black and white, us and them. Talk radio is the functional equivalent COKIE AND STEVEN V. of pro ROBERTS wrestling, just with- Columnists out the capes and masks: a pre-scripted morality play where everyone knows the outline and the outcome. And cheers anyway. Speaking on WJR in Detroit, Rogers criticized his future talk radio colleagues as being too negative and failing to offer solutions to pressing problems. “You have to move the ball forward,” he said. “That voice is missing.” Yes it is. Rogers, for example, supports a bold American role in the world and sharply criticizes Republicans like Sen. Rand Paul who favor a more isolationist approach. In the Post interview, he derided “celebrity politicians” who refuse to engage in “substantive dialogue” or recognize reality. “Some of the biggest casualties in all that have been facts,” he said. One case of “facts”becoming “casualties” is the right-wing obsession with the tragic death of three Americans in Benghazi, Libya. Rogers’ critics say he has not pursued the issue vigorously enough, but the chairman insists he’s conducted “a very aggressive fact-based investigation.” What he won’t do is bow to “conspiracy theorists who wanted us to find conspiracy A, B and C.” That approach elicits praise from committee Democrats like Luis Gutierrez of Illinois, who called Rogers “a voice for moderation and consensus building.” Moderation? Consensus building? On talk radio? Is the man mad? The medium thrives on exactly the opposite approach. Extremism, not moderation. Polarization, not consensus building. Hosts and listeners inhabit a vast echo chamber where both groups sing at top volume from the same sacred hymnal. As media critic David Carr of the New York Times observes, “The polarized political map is now accompanied by a media ecosystem that is equally gerrymandered into districts of self-reinforcing discourse.” He cites a recent Pew survey: 78 percent of Sean Hannity’s listeners call themselves conservatives and only 5 percent are liberals; Rush Limbaugh’s followers are almost as orthodox: 71 percent on the right, 9 percent on the left. Liberals have their own echo chamber, but aren’t as rigid or influential. Rachel Maddow’s modest audience on MSNBC breaks down as 57 percent liberal, 31 percent moderate and 7 percent conservative. This “media ecosystem” is bad for democracy. Voters are not challenged in their assumptions or convictions. Candidates are driven to extremes to appease the Radio Ranters — see Mitt Romney’s lurch rightward in the GOP primaries. When facts become casualties, consensus becomes impossible. As Carr puts it: “The village common — you know, the place where we all meet to discuss our problems, relying on the same set of facts — has shrunk to the size of a postage stamp, surrounded by the huge gated communities of like minds who never venture into the great beyond.” Talk radio, and its close cousin, cable TV, are not the only culprits here. In the world of social media, with a vast menu of tweets and blog posts to choose from, it’s all too easy for individuals to block out dissent and listen only to preachers who pander to their existing fears and feelings. If Mike Rogers can introduce a cleansing voice of “moderation and consensus building” into the polluted stream of talk radio, good for him. But don’t bet on it.

Letters to the Editor What good will the CEP do? As long as I’ve lived in Coos Bay I have watched promoters and con men goad port, county and city officials into rash, disastrous decisions to spend other people’s money. Now comes Mr. Kridelbaugh (Op-Ed, March 25) urging their speedy approval of the Community Enhancement Plan, which will turn the greatly reduced property tax payments of the Jordan Cove LNG plant into a slush fund for the pet projects of a troika of unaccountable insiders. That arrangement, Kridelbaugh predicts, will turn Coos Bay into “the best area to raise a family, to work and to live in the state.” the Unfortunately, “Hallelujah!” and “Hooray” shouts got stuck in my throat when I read that the retired eduthis believes crat heaven-on-earth can be created through pie-in-the-sky bureaucratic gibberish. If only we are guided by a mission statement of social goals, he claims that by 2034 the troika-run CEP will give us a per capita income 25 percent greater than the average Oregonian’s while making our problems with unemployment, drug abuse, divorce and domestic violence the smallest in the state. Mr. Kridelbaugh seems to suffer from “moon landing” syndrome. Since the goal of putting a man on the moon by 1970 was met, many people, including politicians, thought that any other goal should be achievable if only we throw enough money at it. The trouble is, the moon landing was a purely technical feat. Social engineering doesn’t work that way. Fifty years ago, President Johnson launched his War on Poverty. It would be won by big spending for “better schools, and better health, and better homes, and better training, and better job opportunities,” and so on. It was a huge CEP for the entire nation. The big spending happened all right; $15 trillion of it. But many studies have concluded that the nation’s poverty rate is about the same it was in 1964, or worse if you don’t count as income the various War on Poverty benefits that poor people still get. No matter how many highfalutin’ mission statements and goals we write,throwing money at

social problems is likely to end in waste and failure. But I’m sure that in 20 years the CEP promoters won’t be held to answer for the flop, so the time to step on the brakes is now. What’s the rush? Wim DeVriend Coos Bay

Illegal aliens a drain on society Obama made the claim some time ago that he has deported more illegal aliens than Bush, that is just another one of his outright lies. He just released over 800,000 illegals who had deportation papers made up, and this one will amaze you if you don’t already know, 68,000 “criminal” illegals were also turned loose. People don’t know these things for the most part, simply because most of the major news shows refuse to tell the story, mainly because they are in the back pocket of the Obama administration! Don’t believe me? Look these facts up on any major website. Here’s the best way I can describe the situation. If you have a ship sink, there’s only one life boat, and that boat has only so many it can take “without” sinking. Do you; 1. Don’t allow any more in and look the other way,or; 2. Keep hauling in people until “everyone” drowns? The answer is pretty clear to anyone with a brain, but the Liberal would have “everyone” drown and feel good because they tried! Which one are you? This country can not continue to allow illegal aliens to come here, break the laws, get “free” medical, schooling, and God only knows what else, unless you want your children to grow up with a national debt that will bring down our very economy. You can only borrow and print money for so long. Think about it. Roger Wilson Coos Bay

Area hazardous for LNG plant Putting the LNG plant on the North Spit would be a ticking hydrogen bomb! The area is a tsunami zone. We have had several earthquakes off our coast in the recent weeks. We are sitting on the Cascadia subduction fault. Not to mention the Pacific plate is

moving. An LNG plant across from our airport is ridiculous. Neither myself or my friends would fly out of that airport again. The politicians think we are so poor and/or stupid we will accept anything. When we lose Highway 42, we are isolated! What will help our economy and our environment is an east-west highway from Coos Bay to Interstate 5. You most likely would lose the McCullough bridge. Diana Alleger Coquille

Lofty ideals aren’t practical solutions If it weren’t so serious, the “views” of Dr. Kridelbaugh and Mary Geddry would be amusing. Although the former cites our social and economic population detriments, simply developing a 20 year CEP mission statement will do nothing to achieve those goals. Ms. Geddry’s SDAT countywide dialog for distributing a questionable LNG export windfall also ignores the self-defeating, foundational mindset of regional residents. Oregon’s South Coast economy has been based on extraction of natural resources; there has been no need for more than a high school education (if that) in order to make a reasonable living. Those days are all but over, but developing an intelligence based alternative has never materialized. The result is a broadly ignorant, apathetic, cynical, atomized public. One disconnected from educational sources and the local ruling class. Two telling points confirm: A dis-investment set of individual priorities and a don’t know, don’t want to know mentality. Under such circumstances, getting gun-jumping, widespread public input on the overly complicated and hidden distribution of LNG funds is ridiculous.Even if the money were available, it wouldn’t uplift our social involvement and unenlightened status. Kridelbaugh’s list of detriments would hardly change. And any constructive steps involving class integration would run headlong into the national tide of the “every man for himself,” plutocratic Republican agenda, as an apathetic, disinformed, atomized public is easier to manipulate and enslave.

But there are things that could be done to begin a constructive process. I’ve mentioned some before. If we are to have a “community,” as a CB city councilor once described (Jan. 13, 2007), there has to be a meaningful connection between the top and the rest. It has to be honest and continuous in order to engender interest, trust and participation. Local public and private leaders could go knocking on doors for sit down dialogs with the underclass and above. I also suggested free civics lectures and seminars from SWOCC teachers. I recently suggested developing a victory garden industry. These specific measures were all ignored. The local libraries have the resources to provide a civic, if unaccredited, education but it goes underutilized. Instead, young people Twitter about their breakfasts. Similar, banal distractions consume. Any upgrade process will be a long, tough haul and our national mindset is for short-term “fixes.” Pie in the sky “view” articles won’t come to anything, given our lack of an enlightened leadership class.

State and Obituaries Mother who lost baby wants to find right word for grief DEAR ABBY: My 1-yearold baby recently passed away. I have two other children, one with special needs. I find it irritating and not at all comforting when people tell me that "at least I have other children and that I should concentrate on them." How can I politely tell them that I have never stopped taking care DEAR of my other children, and that nothing eases the pain of burying your child? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; MOURNING MY BABY IN JEANNE P U E R T O PHILLIPS RICO DEAR MOURNING: Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your child. My heart goes out to you. While I can imagine that you might be tempted to lash out at these insensitive individuals, I hope you realize their comments are made out of ignorance. Sometimes it isn't what you say as much as how you say it. In a case like this, exactly what you have written to me would be an appropriate response as long as it is said calmly and without anger. DEAR ABBY: My daughter was married for eight years before divorcing her cheating husband. They have two children. When my daughter found out about the affair, she was inconsolable. actually The girlfriend phoned her and said, "Why are you so upset? Everyone cheats!" Now, two years later, the girlfriend is pregnant. My daughter would like a paternity test done before the kids are introduced to this new child. She thinks it would be harmful if they are introduced to a new halfsibling who may later prove to belong to another man. ("Everyone cheats"?) What do you think about this? Is it wrong for my daughter to want proof that this is her ex's baby? He feels certain he's the father, but he also knows the other woman has kept in touch with her ex-boyfriend. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; JUST WONDERING IN CONNECTICUT DEAR JUST WONIf your DERING: daughter's ex wants to claim paternity without a paternity test, there is no legal basis I can think of to prevent him from being considered the father. While your daughter has reason to be angry at her ex and to dislike the woman with whom he cheated, she can't prevent her children from seeing the baby if he wants them to. (P.S. You'd think her ex would WANT to know for certain, but it takes all kinds ...) DEAR ABBY: What is the best way to answer your children when they ask if you have taken drugs? I smoked a little marijuana back in college, but stopped before graduation and I haven't done it since. My children are about ready to go to high school. I have avoided answering their questions in the past, but I know I'll have to say something someWhat? time. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; TONGUE-TIED IN AN TOWN, USA DEAR TONGUE-TIED: I don't believe in lying to children.

Firefighters battle blaze near nursing facility LONGVIEW, Wash. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; First responders in Longview heard two explosions from a truck fire early Monday morning next to a long-term care facility, but firefighters intervened before the flames reached the facilityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s propane tank. The fire Monday was reported at about 5 a.m., when police found the burning truck, which appeared to belong to the Spring Valley Dairy in Salem. The driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side tire exploded and all 115 occupants and staff of the Frontier The Associated Press Rehabilitation and Extended Rooney, a Hollywood legend whose career spanned more than 80 years, has died. He was 93. Los Angeles Care Center in Longview Police Commander Andrew Smith said that Rooney was with his family when he died Sunday at his North were moved away from the Hollywood home. area. No one was injured.

Iconic Hollywood actor Mickey Rooney dies at 93 LOS ANGELES (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mickey Rooney's approach to life was simple: "Let's put on a show!" He spent nine decades doing it, on the big screen, on television, on stage and in his extravagant personal life. A superstar in his youth, Rooney was Hollywood's top box-office draw in the late 1930s to early 1940s. He epitomized the "show" part of show business, even if the business end sometimes failed him amid money troubles and a seesaw of career tailspins and revivals. Pint-sized, precocious, impish, irrepressible â&#x20AC;&#x201D; perhaps hardy is the most-suitable adjective for Rooney, a perennial comeback artist whose early blockbuster success as the vexing but wholesome Andy Hardy and as Judy Garland's musical comrade in arms was bookended 70 years later with roles in "Night at the Museum" and "The Muppets." Rooney died Sunday at age 93 surrounded by family at his North Hollywood home, police said. The Los Angeles County Coroner's office said Rooney died a natural death. There were no further details immediately available on the cause of death, but Rooney did attend Vanity Fair's Oscar party last month, where he posed for photos with other veteran stars and seemed fine. He was also shooting a movie at the time of his death, "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," with Margaret O'Brien. He was nominated for four Academy Awards over a four-decade span and received two special Oscars for film achievements, won an Emmy for his TV movie "Bill" and had a Tony nomination for his Broadway smash "Sugar Babies." "I loved working with Mickey on 'Sugar Babies.' He was very professional, his stories were priceless and I love them all ... each and every one. We laughed all the time," Carol Channing said. A small man physically, Rooney was prodigious in talent, scope, ambition and

appetite. He sang and danced, played roles both serious and silly, wrote memoirs, a novel, movie scripts and plays and married eight times, siring 11 children. His first marriage â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to the glamorous, and taller, Ava Gardner â&#x20AC;&#x201D; lasted only a year. But a fond recollection from Rooney years later â&#x20AC;&#x201D; "I'm 5 feet 3, but I was 6 feet 4 when I married Ava" â&#x20AC;&#x201D; summed up the man's passion and capacity for life. Rooney began as a toddler in his parents' vaudeville act in the 1920s. He was barely six when he first appeared on screen, playing a midget in the 1926 silent comedy short "Not to Be Trusted," and he was still at it more than 80 years later, working incessantly as he racked up about 250 screen credits in a career unrivaled for length and variety. "I always say,'Don't retire â&#x20AC;&#x201D; inspire,'" Rooney said in an interview with The Associated Press in March 2008. "There's a lot to be done." This from a man who did more than just about anyone in Hollywood and outlasted pretty much everyone from old Hollywood. Rooney was among the last survivors of the studio era, which his career predated, most notably with the lead in a series of "Mickey McGuire" kid comedy shorts from the late 1920s to early '30s that were meant to rival Hal Roach's "Our Gang" flicks. After signing with MGM in 1934, Rooney landed his first big role playing Clark Gable's character as a boy in "Manhattan Melodrama." A year later, still only in his mid-teens, Rooney was doing Shakespeare, playing an exuberant Puck in Max Reinhardt's "A Midsummer Night's Dream," which also featured James Cagney and Olivia de Havilland. Rooney soon was earning $300 a week with featured roles in such films as "Riff Raff," ''Little Lord Fauntleroy," ''Captains Courageous" and "The Devil Is a Sissy." Then came Andy Hardy in the 1937 comedy "A Family

Affair," a role he would reprise in 15 more feature films over the next two decades. Centered on a kindly small-town judge (Lionel Barrymore) who delivers character-building homilies to troublesome son Andy, it was pure corn, but it turned out to be golden corn for MGM, becoming a runaway success with audiences. "I knew 'A Family Affair' was a B picture, but that didn't stop me from putting my all in it," Rooney recalled. Studio boss Louis B. Mayer saw "A Family Affair" as a template for a series of movies about a model American home. Cast changes followed, most notably with Lewis Stone replacing Barrymore in the sequels, but Rooney stayed on, his role built up until he became the focus of the films, which included "The Courtship of Andy Hardy," ''Andy Hardy's Double Life" and "Love Finds Andy Hardy," the latter featuring fellow child star Garland. He played a delinquent humbled by Spencer Tracy as Father Flanagan in 1938's "Boys Town" and Mark Twain's timeless scamp in 1939's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." Rooney's peppy, allAmerican charm was never better matched than when he appeared opposite Garland in such films as "Babes on Broadway" and "Strike up the Band," musicals built around that "Let's put on a show" theme. One of them, 1939's "Babes in Arms," earned Rooney a best-actor Oscar nomination, a year after he received a special Oscar shared with Deanna Durbin for "bringing to the screen the spirit and personification of youth, and as juvenile players setting a high stanand of ability dard achievement." He earned another bestactor nomination for 1943's "The Human Comedy," adapted from William Saroyan's sentimental tale about small-town life during World War II. The performance was among Rooney's finest.

Bungled probe nearly cost hospital dollars (PORTLAND (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Officials at a Portland hospital had to draft a hurried plan of action to avoid losing funding after a federal agency determined the hospital failed to thoroughly investigate a series of complaints from patients who accused an emergency room nurse of sex abuse.

of the complaints against nurse Jeffrey N. McAllister. The hospital fired McAllister a year ago. He has since been indicted and accused of sexually abusing 10 patients at the hospital

between October 2009 and April 2013. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges. The hospital hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disciplined any of its employees who handled the complaints against McAllister.

Police dog patrols TriMet MAX system PORTLAND (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The newest police dog with TriMetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Transit Police is aptly named. Max is a 2-year-old Labrador mix, now patrolling MAX light rail trains, as well as other TriMet facilities and buses. KPTV reports the dog was named Max before joining the Canine Explosive Detection Unit. He received federal certification in February through the Transportation Security Administrationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Explosives Detection Canine Team Program. Max is partnered with Transit Police Sgt. Jim Simms and takes over for Rexo who recently retired after seven years. Both Max and Rexo live with Simms.

Woman dies in crash into river at Waldport WALDPORT (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; An 18-year-old woman was killed when her car went down a steep embankment into the Alsea River at Waldport. The Lincoln County sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office tells KGW her car was reportedly seen upside down before sinking out of sight in the murky water. The car had to be towed out of the water before emergency responders found the driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body, still in her seat belt. Killed in the Saturday evening crash was Makala Osborn of the community of Tidewater.

Springfield mulls paying mayor SPRINGFIELD (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The city of Springfield is asking residents whether council members and the mayor should be paid. Springfield's city charter has banned pay for elected officials for a century. But the Eugene Register-Guard reports that the city has posted an online survey seeking opinions about whether voters should be asked to reconsider that ban. The proposal suggests paying the mayor $500 a month and council members $300 per month. The survey asks whether the proposed pay is too much, too little or about right. It also asks whether residents would be more willing to run for the city council if they were paid to serve.

KATU-TV reports thousands packed the square to celebrate the conversion of a once-empty piece of land into the heart of the city. The Oregonian reports (http://bit.ly/1kjio3G ) the square was once home to an 1850s schoolhouse and, later, a luxury hotel. A Portland-based design team won an international competition to design the square. The idea was to have the square active for as many hours per day as possible. The multi-level brick plaza, with stairs that serve as seats, makes for a natural amphitheater and is home to more than 300 events annually. The square needs $4.4 million in repairs and restoration work.

3.3 quake felt in Portland area PORTLAND (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A magnitude 3.3 earthquake was felt throughout the Portland area at 8:30 p.m. Sunday, but there are no reports of injury or damage. The Pacific Northwest Seismic Network says the quake was about 12 miles deep and centered near Sherwood in Washington County, about 17 miles southwest of Portland. People who reported it on a U. S. Geological Survey website indicates the quake was lightly felt in the Portland metro area and from Battle Ground, Wash., to Salem. A Washington County dispatcher told The Oregonian there were no reports of injury or damage.

PSU faculty strike averted PORTLAND (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A faculty strike set for next week at Portland State University has been averted after nearly yearlong negotiations produced a tentative contract agreement. The Oregonian reports the union and administrators reached the deal at 5:30 a.m. Sunday. Both sides say PSU will give 2.5 percent cost-of-living raises over the next two years and increase the number of non-tenure-track instructors who receive longterm contracts, among other things. The union had voted to strike on April 16, which would have forced class cancellations.

Decrease found in probation, parole SALEM (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Marion County officials say decreases in crime and recidivism are responsible for a steady decline in the number of people supervised by parole and probation officers. Cmdr. Jeff Wood tells the Statesman Journal that the division is seeing a 10-year low in supervised offenders. Statistics for the county that includes Salem show the monthly caseload has decreased since at least 2010. Caseloads in February were down 4.5 percent from a year earlier and 6.1 percent from two years earlier.

7 easy ways to slash the cost of clothing Clothing is not optional, but spending a lot of money on it is, says author Gregory Karp in his book, EVERYDAY “Living CHEAPSKATE Rich by Spending Smart: How to Get More of What Y o u Really Want.” S o , just off Mary the top of Hunt y o u r h ea d , how much would you say your family spends on clothing in a year? According to the U.S. Consumer Expenditure Survey, a family of four spends, on average, $2,850 a year on apparel and services such as dry cleaning to keep that apparel looking good. Wow. That’s $240 a month — a major expense in any family’s budget. Karp offers seven easy ways to cut that expense without having to take fashion risks for yourself or sending the kids off to school looking odd and frumpy. 1. Do nothing. Of course this is my favorite of the seven tips. Maybe that’s because I’m naturally lazy or, like many, have enough clothes to get by for months. Do with what you have by recognizing the difference between needs and wants. 2. Buy used. Vintage, consignment and thrift stores are growing by leaps and bounds, offering namebrand used clothes. If you’re creeped out at the thought of buying secondhand, take a tour of a few stores. They’re not usually the dark, smelly, chaotic places you remember as a kid. Most these days are as lovely as regular retail stores. And if you’re really uncomfortable buying used clothing, here’s a tip from Karp: Take baby steps by buying one item, maybe something inexpensive at a high-end consignment store. 3. Use garage sales wisely. Garage sales can be a great source for clothes for kids and babies, but probably not so much for adults for the simple reason that you won’t find enough inventory to offer a good selection of sizes, styles and colors. 4. Strategize. Most of us have wardrobes jammed haphazardly with so many clothes, it’s nearly impossible to know what we have. So we just keep buying more. Instead, organize your closet and take inventory of what you have. And, says Karp, buy for the size you are now, not the size you someday hope to be. 5. Sim plify. Buy classic styles that will look good for years. Assemble a base of neutral colors — blacks, khaki and navy — that can mix and match to create a number of outfits. Ditto for shoes. 6. Save on retail. If you won’t buy secondhand, says Karp, go to your favorite store’s website to check its sales every week. Sign up for that store’s email newsletters to receive coupons and notice of coming sales. 7. Maintenance. Read the tags before you buy. If a garment must be dry-cleaned, that is going to add to its cost tremendously over its useful life. Also, steer clear of fabrics that tend to pill or wear too fast. Make sure you use the proper temperatures for washing and drying your clothes. A g r e a t t i p : Put your clothes in the dryer for just a few minutes, and then hang them to dry. You’ll save on energy costs and extend the life of your clothes as well.

Nation and World Pro-Russians call east Ukraine independent KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — ProRussian separatists who seized a provincial administration building in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk proclaimed the region independent Monday — an echo of events prior to Russia's annexation of Crimea. Ukrainian authorities called the move an attempt by Russia to sow unrest. The Interfax news agency said the activists demanded that a referendum be held no later than May 11 on the possible secession of the Donetsk region, which borders Russia. Outside the administration building, a barricade of car tires and razor wire was built up to keep police from retaking it. Police said those inside the building were armed. Speaking in a televised address, acting President Oleksandr Turchinov called the events gripping eastern regions — where proRussian activists seized government buildings in at least three cities Sunday — an operation undertaken by Russia to sow instability. "Anti-terrorism measures will be adopted against those that took up weapons," Turchinov said, adding that parliament would convene Tuesday to consider tougher penalties for separatist

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Afghans and the international community hailed its presidential election as a triumph of democracy over violence Sunday, despite complaints about ballot shortages and sporadic fraud after millions of people braved a Taliban threat to vote for a new president. But some cautioned against declaring a premature defeat of the Islamic militants. Securing the vote was a test for Afghan government forces as they prepare to take full responsibility for their own security as the U.S. and allied forces end their comThe Associated Press bat mission at the end of this Activists wave an old Soviet and Russian national flags in front of a barricade at the regional administration year. The consensus was that building, in Donetsk, Ukraine on Monday.

The activists on Monday also called for a referendum on the sovereignty of the Donetsk region, which borders Russia, to be held no later than May 11, the Interfax news agency reported. actions and even ban parties that engage in separatism. In a video posted on the Internet, an unidentified pro-Russia activist in the Donetsk government headquarters asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to send "peacekeeping troops" to the region. "Without your support, without the support of Russia, it will be hard for us to resist the Kiev junta on our

own," he said, referring to the interim authorities that took power after the overthrow of Moscow-backed President Viktor Yanukovych in February. Earlier in the day, Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk also accused Russia of being behind the unrest that broke out in the country's eastern provinces Sunday and of seeking to sow instability as

a pretext for sending troops across the border. "The plan is to destabilize the situation, the plan is for foreign troops to cross the border and seize the country's territory, which we will not allow," he said, adding that those taking part in the unrest have distinct Russian accents. Yatsenyuk said Russian troops remain stationed within 19 miles of the border.

2 new pings sound 'just like' black box beacons PERTH, Australia (AP) — An Australian ship detected two distinct, long-lasting sounds underwater that are consistent with the pings from aircraft black boxes in a major break in the monthlong hunt for the missing Malaysia Airlines jet, the search coordinator said Monday. Navy specialists were urgently trying to pick up the signal again so they can triangulate its position and go to the next step of sending an unmanned miniature submarine into the depths to try to identify plane wreckage. Confirmation that the

signals picked up by the Australian navy ship Ocean Shield belong to Flight 370's black boxes could take days, but the discovery offers "a most promising lead" yet, said Angus Houston, the head of a joint agency coordinating the multinational search. They were stronger and lasted longer than faint signals a Chinese ship reported hearing farther south in the search zone in the remote Indian Ocean. "Clearly this is a most promising lead, and probably in the search so far, it's probably the best information

that we have had," Houston said at a news conference. "We've got a visual indication on a screen and we've also got an audible signal — and the audible signal sounds to me just like an emergency locator beacon." After a monthlong search for answers filled with dead ends, Monday's news brought fresh hope given that the two black boxes, which contain flight data and cockpit voice recordings, are the key to unraveling exactly what happened to Flight 370 and why. Lumpur, In Kuala Malaysian Defense Minister

Hishammudin Hussein told reporters that in light of the new information, "We are cautiously hopeful that there will be a positive development in the next few days, if not hours." Little time is left to locate the devices, which have beacons that emit "pings" so they can be more easily found. The beacons' batteries last only about a month — and Tuesday marks exactly one month since the plane disappeared during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.

Near Fort Hood, service honors fallen KILLEEN, Texas (AP) —The church program pictured an empty road being enveloped by the dark clouds of a sweeping thunderstorm, and the service's lesson was from Isaiah 35:4, "Be strong, fear not." The preacher implored those gathered Sunday that they would find hope in God, but also acknowledged the question on everyone's mind: Why Fort Hood — again? What would have been a routine Sunday service at Tabernacle Baptist Church just outside the sprawling Texas military base became a tribute to the soldiers killed four days earlier when a fellow service member opened fire. It also offered some catharsis for the community struggling to comprehend Fort Hood's second fatal shooting rampage in less than five years.

20 years since start of genocide KIGALI, Rwanda (AP) — Rwanda is commemorating the 20th anniversary of its devastating genocide in which machete and gunfire attacks killed more than 1 million people. President Paul Kagame and U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon together lit a flame at the Kigali Genocide

NEWS D I G E S T Memorial Centre on Monday in memory of those killed. Samantha Power, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, attended and said genocide is a "devastating reminder that nightmares seemingly beyond imagination can in fact take place."

Pistorius murder trial resumes PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) — The defense in the Oscar Pistorius murder trial opened its case on Monday, calling a pathologist in an effort to cast doubt on the prosecution's assertion that girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp ate no more than two hours before the double-amputee runner killed her. The testimony by Prof. Jan Botha was critical to the defense because Pistorius has claimed the couple was in his bedroom by 10 p.m. on Feb. 13, 2013, and any indication that they were awake much later could undermine the Olympian's account of the sequence of events. Pistorius fatally shot Steenkamp after 3 a.m. the next morning, saying he mistook her for an intruder in his home. The prosecution has argued that he intentionally killed her after an argument.

Late flights are up, complaints down DALLAS (AP) — A big drop in customer complaints helped U.S. airlines post their best ratings ever even though more flights were late and more bags were mishandled, according to a report released Monday by university researchers. Virgin America topped the ratings, and three regional airlines scored at the bottom. Among the four biggest airlines, Delta ranked best followed by Southwest, American and United, according to researchers from Wichita State University and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.

Hicks said she started eating less processed foods and more natural ones, which left her feeling better. “We have to stop trusting the food industry,” Hicks said. “You never thought someone would intentionally hurt you, but we need to pull away from packaged foods.” Hicks said doctors now referred to the area of fat around a person’s middle as a “gland.” Women with more than a 35-inch waist and men with a 40-inch waist were at higher risk for inflammation. Sarah Hicks, a licensed massage therapist, will show people how they can ease their pain without drugs. They can do this by soothing their fascia, Hicks said. Fascia is a layer of fibrous tissue that surrounds muscles, blood vessels and nerves, binding some struc-

tures together, while allowing others to slide smoothly over each other. Polizzi, a registered dietitian, will teach the nutrition portion of the class. “A lot of it is the things we shouldn’t be eating anyway,” Polizzi said. Things that cause inflammation include saturated and trans fats, sugar, refined starches and animal products, she said. Anti-inflammatory foods include vegetables, spices, flax and chia. “They (people) just want a pill,” Polizzi said. “That’s not the answer. Food is your medicine.” Reporter Emily Thornton can be reached at 541-2691222, ext. 249 or at emily.thornton@theworldlink.com or on Twitter: @EmilyK_Thornton.

to code (specifically with fire alarms and/or sprinkler systems) and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. There’s one thing the former call center lacks: space for a gym. “One of the other things we’ve been considering is doing a roof shelter so kids are protected from the rain, but still outside,” Lighthouse board president Lisa Lagesse said of a proposed outdoor gym facility. Until then, school officials

say kids could use the surrounding woods, nearby park and baseball and soccer fields for recreation. They’ve also discussed getting food service through the senior center down the road. The ACS center has more parking than Lighthouse has currently, and there’s plenty of room for bus lanes, Seldon said.

POLL

with 42 percent preferring Democrats and 45 percent the Republicans. That’s not the only positive sign in the poll for the Republicans. Favorable views of the GOP have improved, with 38 percent overall now saying they hold a favorable impression of the Party. Republicans’ positive view of their own party has increased from 57 percent in January to 72 percent now. Even impressions of the tea party movement have shifted more positive in recent months. GOP favorability still lags behind that of the Democrats, however, with 43 percent holding a favorable view of the Democratic Party.

stagnant and negative, with just 16 percent saying they approve while 82 percent disapprove. Among those who have “a great deal” or “quite a bit” of interest in politics, 90 percent disapprove, including 61 percent who strongly disapprove. Nearly 4 in 10 (39 percent) would like to see their own member of Congress reelected, an improvement since January. Here, there’s a glimmer of hope for Democrats. Those who consider themselves Democrats are now more likely than Republicans to say their own member of Congress ought to be reelected. Not all Democrats live in districts represented by Democrats, of course, but it represents a shift in opinion since January.

illness is the increased numbers of free radicals, or toxins, in our environment and food, Hicks said. “We are falling into a pool of free radicals,” Hicks said. The free radicals cause the body’s electrons to break apart, which in turn makes them attack healthy electrons. It causes a battle within the body, she said.

Kentucky, Connecticut play for title tonight ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — No, this was not an instant replay, though it certainly is turning into a highlight loop that Aaron Harrison and his Kentucky teammates could get used to watching. Harrison took a pass from his twin brother, Andrew, spotted up from NBA range and watched the ball rattle in for the lead with 5.7 seconds left Saturday night to lift the Wildcats to a 74-73 victory over Wisconsin in the Final Four. It was a near carbon copy of his gamewinner last weekend in the regional final against Michigan. It was every bit as big as the 3 he made the game before that to help Kentucky take the lead for good in the Sweet 16 against Louisville. “You can’t be scared to miss, and you want to be that guy that wants to take the big shots,” Aaron Harrison said.

Two nights later, there were 2.3 seconds on the clock and Harrison was a few steps right of where he was Saturday when he took the pass from his brother. Michigan’s Caris LeVert hit Harrison’s hand as he shot from about 24 feet but the ball went in anyway.

Pirates finish well at Marist THE WORLD

The Associated Press

Portland forward LaMarcus Aldridge, left, blocks a shot by New Orleans Pelicans guard Tyreke Evans during the second half Sunday.

Blazers secure spot in NBA playoffs PORTLAND (AP) — Given an opportunity to clinch a postseason berth, the Trail Blazers made the most if it. LaMarcus Aldridge had 25 points and 18 rebounds and Portland earned a playoff spot for the first time in three seasons with a 100-94 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday night. Wesley Matthews added 21 points, Damian Lillard 20 and Nicolas Batum had 16 points and 12 rebounds for Portland (50-28). The Blazers are in fifth place in the Western Conference with four games remaining. “Fifty wins is always a big honor in this league,” Aldridge said. “Especially being in the West with so many good teams. It’s definitely not something to take for granted. Guys are happy about it and we’re definitely happy to be locked into the playoffs.” Memphis’ loss to San Antonio earlier in the evening cleared the

way for Portland to clinch. It appeared the Trail Blazers might fumble the chance when New Orleans took a 10-point second quarter lead. But the Blazers blew past the Pelicans with a 25-6 third quarter run and never trailed again. Reserve Anthony Morrow scored 17 for New Orleans and Anthony Davis had 15 points on 6of-18 shooting. New Orleans got within 97-94 with 35.9 seconds left when Morrow nailed a jumper, but Lillard scored on a driving layup and then made one of two free throws. “They made runs - that’s what they do,” said Morrow, who is averaging 19.4 points in his last seven games. “We know when this team is at home they are going to make runs, they are going to hit shots.” Portland had won four in a row before running out of gas Friday

and losing 109-93 in Phoenix. Clinching a playoff spot at home was an important step for a team that won just 33 games last season, but the Blazers weren’t whooping it up in the locker room after the game. “We were happy for about five minutes,” Batum said. “But we have four more games and then the playoffs start.” The Pelicans, last in the Southwest Division and out of the playoff race, have lost five straight games. Davis started the game despite back spasms that kept him out for long stretches of the past two games. He limited Aldridge to 6of-16 shooting in the first half. “He’s just trying to do everything he can to help his team and tonight was no different,” coach Monty Williams said. “That’s why we love him.” Davis had 11 points in the first quarter, but the Pelicans went on

a run with their All-Star on the bench in the second, going up 39-29 as reserve big men AlFarouq Aminu and Alexis Ajinca combined for 10 points in a 14-4 run. Portland trailed 55-48 at the half. The Blazers picked up the pace in the third, as Aldridge regained his shot and Lillard, Matthews and Batum each scored in transition. Portland led 77-67 just before the end of the third. Several players scoffed at suggestions that the Blazers rest some starters with the playoffs in hand, and coach Terry Stotts indicated there were no plans to change focus. “We’re not prepping for the playoffs,” he said. “We want to keep going in the right direction.” Portland’s last playoff appearance was in 2010-11, when the Blazers lost a first-round matchup to the Dallas Mavericks in six games.

Unbeaten titans reach women’s final NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Connecticut Huskies are back in a very familiar position, undefeated and playing for a national championship. They’ll be going for an unprecedented ninth national championship after Breanna Stewart scored 18 points and the Huskies advanced to another title game with a 75-56 win against Stanford on Sunday night. It wasn’t easy early, though the Huskies (39-0) did their part in setting up the highly anticipated championship showdown of undefeated teams. They will square off against Notre Dame, an 87-61 winner over Maryland, on Tuesday night in the title game. It will be the first women’s national title game between unbeaten teams. “It wouldn’t be any fun if you didn’t beat teams that were any good,” UConn coach Geno Auriemma said of the matchup with Notre Dame. “I think women’s basketball needs rivalries like this, teams that aspire to be great and want to win championships.” Now the Huskies have joined the UConn men’s team in playing for the national title. The men play Kentucky on Monday night in Texas. “I think it’s awesome,” senior guard Bria Hartley said. “Our men

Both teams have worked hard this year. Now the time has come, and we want to make sure we finish on a good note.” The Huskies also won their 45th straight game after overcoming another sluggish start. Stewart, the Associated Press player of the year, missed her first four shots and UConn was up just 28-24 at halftime. But Connecticut settled down and put the Cardinal away in the second half, outscoring them 4732. Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis

found her shooting stroke, scoring all of her 15 points in the second half. “I think that at times we were a little jumpy and excited,” Stewart said. “Had to settle down and get into the right rhythm of the game. (We) went on a run at the end of the first half and shots started falling.” Hartley added 13 points for UConn and Stefanie Dolson and Moriah Jefferson each finished with 10. Stanford (33-4) lost its third national semifinal since reaching the 2010 championship against UConn, which the Huskies also

won. All-American Chiney Ogwumike finished with 15 points and 10 rebounds. Amber Orrange scored 16 points, and Lili Thompson had 12. “It’s been an amazing remarkable experience to have Stanford on my jersey one last time,” Ogwumike said. Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer had promised the Cardinal wouldn’t go down easy, and her team never stopped competing. It didn’t help that the Cardinal didn’t take a free throw in the first half. The Huskies had a big edge there too (17 of 24) while Stanford was 8 of 10. “We knew that biggest challenge for us was to score,” VanDerveer said. “We worked hard defensively, had a lot of good stops. Their size, when they went big, their size is really disruptive. Probably more than anything, they have very skilled players, play very well together.” Thompson, a freshman, hit four of her first five shots for 10 quick points, helping the Cardinal get off to a good start early. The Cardinal led by as much as six a couple times, the last at 22-16 with 12:32 left when Mikaela Ruef banked in a jumper just before the shot clock expired with 5:39 to go. SEE WOMEN | B2

Marshfield’s girls placed second in the 12-team Marist Invitational track and field meet at Eugene on Saturday, winning seven of the 17 events along the way. The Pirates got field event victories by Karissa Irvin (shot put), Tracee Scott (discus), Adryana Chavez (triple jump) and Taylor Mauer (pole vault). On the track, Brittany Cook won the 200, Shaylen Crook took the 3,000 and Marshfield won the 4x100-meter relay with a squad of Cook, Chavez, Hailee Woolsey and Isabel Groth. Crook had a new Class 4A-leading mark with her time of 10 minutes, 31.90 seconds in the 3,000, while Groth took over the Class 4A lead in the high hurdles, despite finishing second in the event, with her time of 16.10. Class 6A school West Salem won the meet with 156.5 points. Marshfield had 125.5. Marshfield’s boys were sixth in the team race, led by double wins from Hunter Drops in the pole vault and javelin. North Bend Frosh/Soph Invitational: The host Bulldogs swept the team titles Saturday in the annual meet, which also included Marshfield, Roseburg and Klamath Union. Brianna Cole (long jump and triple jump) and McKenzie Edwards (100 meters and high hurdles) were double-winners for North Bend’s girls, while the Bulldogs boys got two wins from Luke Lucero (100 and pole vault), Josh Kimble (shot put and discus), James Jordan (high jump and 200) and Drae Stark (long jump and high hurdles). Junction City Invitational: Siuslaw’s girls finished second behind Newport in the 14-team meet with a scoring system that awards points for all competitors. Ashlee Cole won the discus, Celie Mans took the 800 meters and Stevie Miller won the high jump for Siuslaw’s girls. Siuslaw’s boys won six events, but finished just sixth in the team race because other schools had more depth. Billy Jones won the long jump for the Vikings, who also got wins by Jonathan Peterson (400), Seth Campbell (800), Mack Marbas (1,500), Joe Dotson (intermediate hurdles) and the 4x400 relay team. Both Jones (21-5) and Marbas (4:04.96) had new Class 4A-leading marks in Oregon. Brookings-Harbor Rotary Meet: Del Norte of Crescent City swept the team titles in Brookings-Harbor’s invitational. The host Bruins got double wins by Gabe Brazelton (200 and 400) and Shaine Graham (both hurdles races). Brookings-Harbor baseball player Ronnie Manley had a solid mark of 154-1 to win the javelin and also placed second in the high jump. Ellie Earle-Rouse of Arcata cleared an impressive 5-4 in the girls high jump.

Miami holds off Knicks

Chip-in gives Jones victory THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HUMBLE, Texas — Matt Jones earned his first trip to the Masters with a remarkable 42-yard chip-in on the first playoff hole, outdueling Matt Kuchar on his way to winning the Houston Open on Sunday. The win is the first on the PGA Tour for the Australian, who made a 46-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole to reach the playoff. He ended it one hole later, chipping over the right front bunker on the 18th. Kuchar, who bogeyed the final hole of regulation, then missed his bunker shot to give Jones the win, nearly $1.2 million and a trip to Augusta National.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MIAMI — LeBron James scored 38 points, Mario Chalmers added 15 and the Miami Heat survived a 3-point barrage from New York’s J.R. Smith on the way to dealing the Knicks’ playoff hopes a big blow with a 102-91 victory on Sunday. Chris Bosh added 14 points and Ray Allen had 12 for the Heat, who are a full game ahead of Indiana and two up in the loss column in the East race. Smith made a Knicksrecord 10 3-pointers, on an NBA-record 22 attempts, and finished with 32 points. Raymond Felton scored 14 for New York and Carmelo Anthony managed only 13, on 4 for 17 shooting. Anthony had two points after halftime, while James had 22. The Knicks (33-45) are two games behind Atlanta in the race for the final playoff spot, three in the loss column. Suns 122, Thunder 115: Kevin Durant scored 38 points, his 41st consecutive game of 25 or more, but Phoenix got 26 points from Goran Dragic and 24 from Gerald Green to beat Oklahoma City. Durant moved ahead of Michael Jordan with the third-longest such streak in NBA history and longest since Oscar Robertson did it for 46 in a row in the 1963-64 season. P.J. Tucker scored a career-high 22 points, including a career-best four 3pointers, for the Suns, who pulled a game ahead of Memphis for the No. 8 playoff spot in the West and took the season series from the Thunder 2-1. Eric Bledsoe added 18 points. Hawks 107, Pacers 88: Jeff Teague scored 25 points in Atlanta’s rout of reeling Indiana, which was held to a franchise-low 23 points in the first half of an embarrassing performance on its home floor. The Hawks (34-42) have won three of four and extended their lead over the Knicks for the final playoff spot. The Pacers (53-25) have lost four of five and fell a full game behind Miami in their quest for the No. 1 seed in the East.

Denver led by one in overtime when Houston made three consecutive 3pointers to make it 130-122 with less than two minutes left. Evan Fournier scored 26 points to lead Denver. Warriors 130, Jazz 102: Klay Thompson scored 33 points, Stephen Curry added 31 points and 16 assists, and Golden State rolled past Utah to keep pace in the Western Conference playoff race. The streaky shooting backcourt tandem helped the Warriors (48-29) eclipse last season’s win total and move 19 games over .500 for the first time in 20 years. Golden State remains 11⁄2 games behind fifth-place Portland and 11⁄2 games ahead of seventh-place Dallas in the crammed conference standings. Trey Burke had 24 points and 15 assists, and Alec Burks added 24 points and five assists in the latest lopsided loss for the Jazz (24-53), who are in last place in the West. Spurs 112, Grizzlies 92: Kawhi Leonard matched his career high with 26 points, Manu Ginobili had a seasonhigh 26 and San Antonio eased past Memphis after losing Tony Parker to injury.

Parker’s status is unknown after he was forced to leave with back spasms early in the first quarter. James Johnson had 20 points and Conley added 18 points for Memphis (45-32), which is chasing a playoff spot in the Western Conference. Clippers 120, Lakers 97: Blake Griffin and Chris Paul scored 23 points apiece, and the Los Angeles Clippers hung another rout on the Lakers to take three of four games this season from their beleaguered Staples Center co-tenants. The injury-plagued Lakers were down to just eight players after guard Kent Bazemore got hurt in the second quarter. Jordan Hill led them with 22 points and Nick Young added 18 points off the bench. Mavericks 93, Kings 91: Monta Ellis scored eight of his 23 points in the fourth quarter and Dallas kept its playoff position by beating Sacramento for its third straight win. The Mavericks won for the fourth time in five games to maintain seventh place in the Western Conference. It was Dallas’ fifth straight road win. Rudy Gay had 32 points and tied a career high with eight assists for the Kings.

Sounders rally late to tie Timbers PORTLAND (AP) — The plan was for Clint Dempsey to go 60 minutes and see how he was feeling less than 72 hours after playing 90 minutes in a U.S. national team exhibition against Mexico. When the one-hour mark arrived, Dempsey and the Seattle Sounders were trailing rival Portland by two goals. He wasn’t about to check out. Dempsey scored the first hat trick in his MLS career, including goals in the 85th and 87th minutes to help the Sounders rally late for a wild 4-4 draw with the Timbers on Saturday. “You always feel good when you are contributing, scoring goals or getting assists,” Dempsey said. “I’m in a good rhythm at the moment and it’s about continuing that form.” Trailing 4-2 for most of the second half after goals from Diego Chara and Maximiliano Urruti early in

the half gave Portland the advantage, Dempsey led Seattle’s stunning late comeback to earn a point in the first Cascadia rivalry matchup of the season. Dempsey scored in the 85th minute to get Seattle within 4-3, a goal that felt was coming with the pressure the Sounders were pushing forward. Seconds later, Seattle defender DeAndre Yedlin was taken down in the penalty box by Portland’s Ben Zemanski and referee Hilario Grajeda immediately pointed to the penalty spot. Yedlin said he was hoping to draw a penalty on the play and Zemanski obliged by clipping the young Seattle defender. After a brief discussion with Gonzalo Pineda, who was expecting to take the penalty kick, Dempsey stepped up. He converted the chance, beating former Seattle goalkeeper Andrew Weber to get Seattle even.

“That point today felt like more than a point. It kind of felt like a win,” Dempsey said. The afternoon was an advertisement for the league, even if it gave the coaches heartburn. Play was wide open and end-to-end. There were 41 shots and countless near misses. There were four goals in the first 25 minutes — including goals from Seattle’s Kenny Cooper, Portland Diego Valeri and Dempsey — along with the two late scores. And the biggest star on the field burned brightest even if he was a little tired at the end. “He’s a leader. He wants to lead this team. He wants to show that last year was not the Clint Dempsey that we’re going to see this year,” Seattle coach Sigi Schmid said. “And he wants to show people he’s ready for the World Cup. I think he did that today.” Seattle walked off thrilled with the final result and

game played out in the first half like the struggle he expected. “Hard to make shots unless you’re Kayla McBride at the Final Four,” Auriemma said of the Notre Dame senior who scored 28 to help the Irish advance. “I thought once we settled in and got our rhythm and I thought we played one of the best games we played all year given the

fact we beat a really, really, really good team.” Once the Huskies found their rhythm, were able to finally get going offensively. The Huskies scored 12 straight to finish the half on a 12-2 run.

SOCCER Hamilton edges Rosberg U.S. Federation fires in Bahrain Grand Prix women’s coach Sermanni

SAKHIR, Bahrain — Lewis Hamilton edged Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg after an intense race-long duel to take the victory by just one second at the Bahrain Grand Prix on Sunday. The two Mercedes were predictably in a different league to their rivals and recorded their second onetwo finish in eight days after Hamilton’s victory last weekend in Malaysia. With no team orders, the two were allowed to race for the lead and there were several close calls when the pair came inches away from colliding, providing a thrilling spectacle under the lights at the Bahrain International Circuit. “It was very, very fair and it was very hard to keep him behind,” Hamilton said. “He was very fast on the option tires and I was on the knifeedge the whole time. ... Me and Nico haven’t had a race like that since back in our karting days. In our first (karting) race, he led all day and I overtook him on the last lap and won, and I thought for sure he is going to do that to me today.” Force India’s Sergio Perez was third in his first podium finish since 2012 and his teammate Nico Hulkenberg fifth. Daniel Ricciardo finished fourth, getting the better of his Red Bull teammate and defending four-time F1 champion Sebastian Vettel, who finished sixth.

knowing there were other missed chances in the final minutes to get a winner. Meanwhile, the Timbers stood stunned as the worst start in their brief history continued. The Timbers have generally been slow starters since joining the league in 2011, but now have just three points after five games, not the opening anyone in Portland expected after reaching the Western Conference finals last season. “You should never give up 4 goals, and you should never tie a game if you score 4 goals,” Portland coach Caleb Porter said.

Berkman, Oswalt retire as members of Astros HOUSTON — Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt signed one-day contracts and officially retired as Astros on Saturday. Berkman and Oswalt were drafted by the Astros a year apart and came up through the minors together before Berkman made his major league debut in 1999 and Oswalt followed less than two years later. “It’s an honor to come back here and retire as an Astro,” Oswalt said. “Lance and I both came up through the organization about the same time. We got to play together for a long time. The best thing about Houston was that it was always home. I know I’m speaking for myself, but I went to Philadelphia, Texas and Colorado afterwards, but Houston has always been home.”

Sports RECAP From Page B1 Friday, but bounced back to win a pair of matches at Black Butte Ranch on Saturday. The Pirates were shorthanded the entire weekend, with a few varsity players out of the lineup because of activities or illnesses and JV players filling in their spot.

In the opening match Friday, the Pirates fell 5-3 to Willamette, getting wins by singles players Katie Boesl, Sarah Springael and Lindsay Brown. Marist topped Marshfield 7-1, with only Brown winning for the Pirates playing what coach Aron Boesl described as “a very smart match.” “Marist is very deep, and

with missing five varsity players our doubles teams had to play up a level against very experienced players,” Boesl said. “It was a very good experience for all players to see what the next level looks like. We look forward to playing them again with a full lineup in a few weeks.” The Pirates opened Saturday against Sisters, with only four contested

matches because the Outlaws were missing several players due to spring break. Boesl and Springael won singles matches, while Brown teamed with Emily Sigloh for a win at No. 2 doubles. Marshfield finished with a 5-3 win over Class 5A Mountain View. The Pirates swept the singles matches, with Boesl, Springael, Brown and Sigloh

all topping their foes. Marshfield’s top doubles team for the weekend, Braeden Kennedy and Desiree Guirado, got the other win “in a match that really displayed how much Braeden and Desiree improved over the weekend,” Aron Boesl said. “The win against Mountain View was a great win as it was the final match

of four in two days and the girls were tired and they really showed strength and mental toughness to win the match,” Boesl said. The district tournament is at Black Butte Ranch.

Sports Orioles avoid sweep in Detroit THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Associated Press

Washington’s Ian Desmond celebrates with Washington teammates after hitting a solo home run during the seventh inning Sunday.

Washington edges Atlanta THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Ian Desmond led off the seventh inning with a home run — the only run of the game scored on a hit — and the Washington Nationals and their makeshift lineup avoided a sweep Sunday with a 2-1 win over the Atlanta Braves. Desmond ripped a down-the-middle fastball from Alex Wood (1-1) well into the left field bleachers, the Nationals' first hit since the first inning. But it was enough to win on a day when four Washington pitchers combined to allow eight hits. Taylor Jordan allowed one run over 6 2-3 innings, working out of several jams along the way, and Jerry Blevins (1-0) retired two batters in the seventh to get the win. Rafael Soriano pitched the ninth for his first save. Pirates 2, Cardinals 1: Tony Sanchez hit a tiebreaking RBI double in the seventh inning and Pittsburgh edged St. Louis. Sanchez's double to deep center field with two outs came off Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright (1-1) and snapped a 1-1 tie. The hit by the rookie reserve catcher scored Pedro Alvarez, who led off the inning with a walk, and was Sanchez's second game-winning hit of the week as he singled home the winning run in the 16th inning of Wednesday night's victory over the Chicago Cubs. Tony Watson (1-0) retired all four batters he faced, striking out three, and ran his string of consecutive scoreless

innings to 24, dating to last season. Jason Grilli pitched a scoreless ninth to convert his first save. St. Louis managed just three hits. Padres 4, Marlins 2: Pinch-hitter Alexi Amarista celebrated his 25th birthday by delivering a go-ahead, NL three-run homer in Recap the seventh inning to lift San Diego. Ian Kennedy (1-1) allowed one run and three hits in six innings for the Padres. He struck out five. Four relievers then helped the Padres end a four-game losing streak, including two against the Marlins to begin the series. Huston Street pitched the ninth for his second save. Reds 2, Mets 1: Alfredo Simon pitched seven impressive innings in his first start in more than two years and began the go-ahead rally with his second career hit, helping Cincinnati salvage a win in the three-game series. Joey Votto had a sacrifice fly and Ryan Ludwick a tiebreaking single off Jonathon Niese (0-1), who was making his first start of the season after being slowed by shoulder and elbow injuries this spring. Simon (1-0) made 99 relief appearances for the Reds since his previous start, on Sept. 28, 2011, for Baltimore, but manager Bryan Price tapped the righthander because Mat Latos is rehabbing from knee and elbow operations. Diamondbacks 5, Rockies 3: Mark Trumbo homered for the fourth straight

game as Arizona averted a sweep. Wade Miley pitched eight strong innings to extend his mastery over the Rockies. He also had a career-best three hits, including an RBI single and benefited from a defense that turned five double plays as the Diamondbacks won for just the second time in nine games this season. Miley improved to 7-0 with a 2.52 ERA in 10 career games (nine starts) against the Rockies, matching the longest winning streak against Colorado to start a career. Cubs 8, Phillies 3: Ryan Kalish hit a two-run double and an RBI triple and Chicago avoided a sweep. Cubs starter Carlos Villanueva (1-2) allowed a run in five innings in his first start and third outing of the season. A.J. Burnett (0-1), who signed a oneyear, $16 million contract with the Phillies after he spent the last two seasons with the Pittsburgh Pirates, allowed eight runs, four earned, in 5 2-3 innings. He struck out three but walked six. Dodgers 6, Giants 2: Matt Kemp hit his first two home runs at Dodger Stadium since late in 2012 and Hanley Ramirez slugged his first two homers this season, helping Los Angeles avoid a three-game sweep. Zack Greinke (2-0) pitched six innings, allowing two runs and six hits — including Brandon Belt's fourth homer leading off the sixth, and the first of the season by Hunter Pence three batters later. The right-hander struck out eight and walked none.

Thompson beats Wie at LPGA major RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. (AP) — Lexi Thompson took a lot of the drama out of the final round of the Kraft Nabisco Championship. So did Michelle Wie. The Sunday showdown the LPGA Tour hoped for in the first major championship of the year fizzled on the front nine when the aggressive Thompson overpowered the cautious Wie. Thompson went after it from the start at Mission Hills, smashing driver on every hole she could. Wie reined in her considerable power, hitting conservative fairway-metal stingers and only occasionally letting loose with the driver. When it was over, the 19year-old Thompson cannonballed into Poppie’s Pond in the traditional victory leap, and Wie was left to wonder about her safety-first strategy. “I play this course very aggressively,” Thompson said. “I didn’t want to change the way I played the last few days because my driver won’t get me in any trouble on a lot of the holes. So, laying back wouldn’t really make sense. “The greens were a little firmer, so even with a wedge in your hand you had to play for quite a bit of bounce out. I figured the closer I could get, even if I was in the rough, I could get it pretty close to the hole.” Thompson birdied four of the first nine holes to open a five-stroke lead and parred the final nine for a 4-under 68 and a three-stroke victory over Wie. “This is what I’ve worked so hard for,” Thompson said. “This was one of my goals coming into the year, to win a major. I’ve always seen myself winning a Kraft Nabisco. It’s such a huge honor with all the history

The Associated Press

Lexi Thompson jumps into Poppy’s Pond after winning the Kraft Nabisco Championship golf tournament Sunday. behind the tournament.” Wie birdied the final hole for a 71. She used her driver only four times, choosing to hit fairway woods on the other 10 driving holes — leaving her as much as 60 yards behind Thompson. When both hit 3-woods, Thompson also had the advantage. “I stuck with my game plan and I think it was the right play,” Wie said. “Who knows? In hindsight you would do something here or do something there, make a putt there. That’s the way golf is. I just couldn’t get anything going today.” Thompson finished at 14under 274 for her fourth LPGA Tour victory. She opened with a 73, shot a tournament-best 64 on Friday and had a 69 on Saturday to tie for the lead with Wie at 10 under. The 6foot Florida player had only

one bogey — when she missed a 3-footer on the par5 18th Saturday — in her last 55 holes. “When I had a bad hole, I’d just fight right back,” Thompson said. “Or if I hit a bad shot, just know that I can get it up-and-down or get it on the green.” Five years after she first played the event as a 14year-old amateur, Thompson became the second-youngest major winner at 19 years, 1 month, 27 days. Morgan Pressel set the mark in 2007 at Mission Hills at 18 years, 10 months, 9 days. “It has been an honor to play at this tournament so many years,” Thompson said. “Only being 19 and to win it is the biggest honor ever.” Thompson has three victories in her last 12 starts, winning in Malaysia and Mexico late last season. She also won the 2011 Navistar

LPGA at 16 to become the youngest winner in tour history, a mark broken by Lydia Ko in the 2012 Canadian Women’s Open. “I’m really looking forward to the future,” Thompson said. The 24-year-old Wie won the last of her two tour titles in 2010. “I’m just proud of myself for how the week went,” Wie said. Thompson hammered a drive 40 yards past Wie’s 3wood on the par-4 opening hole and took the lead with a 15-foot birdie putt. Wie pulled even with a birdie on the par-5 second, then bogeyed the par-4 third — missing from 8 feet after leaving a chip short. Thompson birdied Nos. 4 and 5. She hit a 3-wood 30 yards past Wie’s 3-wood and made a 12-foot putt on the par-4 fourth, and holed a 5footer on the par-3 fifth. Thompson picked up another stroke on the par-3 eighth when Wie missed a 2foot par putt, and pushed her lead to five with an 8-foot birdie putt on the par-5 ninth. Wie birdied the first two holes where she used her driver, hitting it past Thompson on Nos. 2 and 11 — both par 5s. Wie also hit driver on the par-4 13th, setting up a wedge that she hit to 4 feet. But she left the birdie putt short to remain four strokes back. “I think it got to a point where I just tried too hard,” Wie said. Wie cut it to three on No. 14, holing a 12-footer, but dropped a stroke on the 17th. “Lexi played amazing,” Wie said. “She played probably the best I’ve ever seen her play. She hit the ball so well. ... It was just hard to catch up to her all day.”

DETROIT — Chris Tillman outpitched Justin Verlander, allowing one run while working into the ninth and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Detroit Tigers 3-1 Sunday to avoid getting swept. Tillman (1-0) gave up five hits, including Torii Hunter's solo homer in the fourth, in 8 1-3 innings. Tommy Hunter entered with one AL out in the ninth and Recap Victor Martinez on second base and retired the last two batters for his second save. Baltimore won for the first time since its opener against baseball's last undefeated team. Verlander (0-1) gave up two runs on five hits and two walks over eight innings. He struck out three, moving past Tommy Bridges and into fourth place on the franchise's all-time list with 1,674 in his career. Adam Jones drove in the go-ahead run in the eighth with a sacrifice fly after Nick Markakis tripled. Rangers 3, Rays 0: Yu Darvish allowed seven hits over seven innings in his season debut, Elvis Andrus hit a two-run homer, and Texas avoided a three-game sweep. Darvish (1-0) struck out six and walked one. Sidelined by neck stiffness, it was his first outing since a spring training game on March 16. Darvish got his 500th career strikeout, coming in 401 2-3 innings, by fanning David DeJesus and Wil Myers in the first. According to the Rangers, it is the fewest innings for a starter to reach 500 strikeouts in major league history. Andrus put the Rangers up 2-0 with his homer off Joel Peralta (0-1) in the eighth. Donnie Murphy made it 3-0 on an RBI infield during the ninth. Yankees 6, Blue Jays 4: CC Sabathia pitched six innings for his first victory of the season and Brett Gardner hit a two-run home run for the New York. Sabathia (1-1) allowed four runs and seven hits, walked none and struck out six. He was hit hard in Tuesday's opening day loss at Houston, allowing six runs and eight hits, including two home runs, in six innings. The left-hander was taken deep again Sunday when Melky Cabrera connected in the first inning. The homer was Cabrera's third of the season and third this series. Derek Jeter had two hits, moving into sole possession of eighth place on baseball's career list. Jeter's single to right in the fourth was the 3,320th hit of his career, breaking a tie with Paul Molitor. Maicer Izturis followed with an infield single but was erased on a fielder's choice. Sabathia retired 16 of the next 17 hitters before running into trouble in the sixth. Twins 10, Indians 7: Chris Colabello drove in four runs, Brian Dozier scored three times and Minnesota outslugged Cleveland. Colabello, who played seven seasons of independent ball in Canada before signing with the Twins in 2012, broke a 6-6 tie with a three-run double in the sixth inning off Blake Wood (0-1). The 30-year-old Colabello leads the AL with 11 RBIs after six games. Joe Mauer had three hits and scored twice for the

Twins, who took two of three in the series and will play their home opener Monday against Oakland. Anthony Swarzak (1-0) picked up the win in relief of Ricky Nolasco. Glen Perkins worked a perfect ninth for his second save. David Murphy had four hits, Jason Kipnis had three RBIs and Yan Gomes hit a two-run homer for Cleveland. Astros 7, Angels 4: Scott Feldman threw seven strong innings, five Astros homered, and Houston snapped a three-game losing streak. Feldman (2-0) did not allow a hit until two outs in the fourth, when Josh Hamilton dribbled one toward first base that went under the glove of Feldman, who charged at it off the mound. The right-hander allowed his first run in 11 1-3 innings this season in the fifth on a groundout to second by Erick Aybar that cut the lead to 4-1. Chad Qualls got the last two outs for his first save of the season. Jason Castro, Matt Dominguez, Jesus Guzman and Alex Presley homered off Jered Weaver (0-2). Jonathan Villar added a two-run shot in the seventh off Matt Shoemaker. White Sox 5, Royals 1: Chris Sale gave up four singles in eight scoreless innings for Chicago. Alexei Ramirez and Tyler Flowers each drove in a pair of runs as the White Sox won the series finale after dropping the first two games. Sale (2-0) struck out six and walked one. In his previous four starts against the Royals, the White Sox had backed him with one run, enough to beat James Shields 1-0 in the 2012 opener. Shields (0-1) took the loss in this one, too, giving up a run on five hits, striking out six, walking none and hitting two batters in seven innings. Athletics 6, Mariners 3: Jim Johnson struck out two and closed it out after losing back-to-back outings to begin with his new team, saving Oakland's victory. Brandon Moss hit a threerun homer, Yoenis Cespedes connected in the eighth and Josh Donaldson beat out an infield single in the fifth to drive in the go-ahead run. Sonny Gray (1-0) allowed one earned run and six hits, struck out three and walked two in six innings. In the ninth, manager Bob Melvin went back to Johnson, who delivered his first save despite allowing two baserunners. Johnson, who converted 50 of 59 save opportunities in 2013, was acquired from Baltimore to replace departed All-Star Grant Balfour.

INTERLEAGUE Brewers 4, Red Sox 0: Yovani Gallardo made his second straight scoreless start and Milwaukee completed a three-game sweep. The World Series champion Red Sox, who never had a losing record last year, fell to 2-4 and matched their longest skid of 2013. They were swept just once last season, in a three-game series against the Texas Rangers from May 3-5. But the Red Sox couldn't score against Gallardo (2-0), who pitched six innings in Milwaukee's 2-0 win over the Atlanta Braves in the season opener, and have lost their first three home games for the first time since 1984. Jon Lester (0-2) pitched well for his second straight start but received little support again.

Cleveland stars spar CLEVELAND (AP) — Two of Cleveland’s biggest sports stars are going at it. Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving and Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon exchanged barbs across all number of platforms over the weekend — TV, Twitter and newspaper. Gordon fired the first verbal volley last week. The player who led the NFL with yards receiving last season went on ESPN and discussed a “rift” between Irving and

Cavs guard Dion Waiters. Gordon and Waiters are neighbors in Cleveland. Irving shot back, telling the Akron Beacon Journal, “Guys like Josh Gordon need to stay in his sport and mind his own business.” Gordon then tweeted on Sunday: “... think i touched a nerve.” On top of his issues with Gordon, Irving has been upset with other media reports saying he wants to leave Cleveland.

BRIDGE Holly Lisle, a fantasy and science fiction novelist, said, “If you don’t accept responsibility for your own actions, then you are forever chained to a position of defense.” At the bridge table, when you are on defense, you must accept responsibility for your actions, and you must make those actions — plays — readable by partner. This week we will look at a variety of defensive deals, the types that you ought to have in your repertoire. In this deal, how should the

defenders card to defeat four hearts after West leads the club ace? Jump raises in competition ought to be treated as pre-emptive. So, here, North’s three-heart response shows four-card heart support and a relatively weak hand, below game-invitational strength. (With four trumps and gameinvitational values or more, North would respond two no-trump. This ought to be known as Truscott, after Alan who devised it. But in the United States it is often called Jordan, after Bobby who popularized it. Note that there is no need for a strong two-no-trump response, because North would redouble with 10 points or more and fewer than four hearts.) When you cannot win a trick and want to tell partner about touching honors, play the top of those touchers. At trick one, East must follow suit with his club queen. Then West continues with a low club, putting East on lead for the lethal spade shift. Why does East play a spade, not a diamond? Lead dummy’s weak suit; if West has a diamond winner, it isn’t going anywhere. But a spade trick might — and here would — evaporate.

TRUSTEE’S NOTICE OF SALE Pursuant to O.R.S. 86.705 et seq. NOTICE TO BORROWER: YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THE UNDERSIGNED IS ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND THAT ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. Reference is made to that certain Deed of Trust made by, Brett W.

Lyons Revocable Living Trust, as beneficiary, dated 9/20/2013, recorded 9/27/2013, under Instrument No. 2013-9484, records of Coos County, Oregon. Said Trust Deed encumbers the following described real property situated in said county and state, to wit: Beginning at an iron pipe on the Westerly boundary of the right of way of the Coos Bay Lumber Company railroad through the SW 1/4 of the SE 1/4 of Section 32, Township 29 South, Range 12 West of the Willamette Meridian, Coos County, Oregon, from which point the Southeast corner of the said Section 32 bears South 71 52’ East a distance of 1665.00 feet; thence North 43 40’ West for a distance of 226.17 feet to an iron pipe on the Southeasterly boundary of the right of way of the County Road; thence North 46 20’ East along the said right of way boundary for a distance of 103.00 feet to an iron pipe; thence South 43 40’ East for a distance of 123.32 feet to an iron pipe on the said Westerly boundary of the Coos Bay Lumber Company Railroad right of way, the said point being on a curve of 766.50 feet, whose tangent at the said point bears South 6 49.15 feet West; thence along the said curve to the left through a central angle of 10 53.84’ for a distance of 145.78 feet to the point of beginning, being a portion of the SW 1/4 of the SE 1/4 of Section 32, Township 29 South, Range 12 West of the Willamette Meridian, Coos County, Oregon.

No action has been instituted to recover the obligation, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the trust deed. The default for which the foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due, the following sums: Monthly payments in full of $839.06 beginning November 1, 2013, and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter, plus late charges in the total amount of $83.91 as of January 2, 2014, plus ad valorem property taxes due in the amount of $129.49 plus interest, plus any late charges accruing thereafter, plus expenses, costs, trustee fees, and attorney fees. ALSO, if you have failed to provide insurance on the property or pay other senior liens or encumbrances as required in the note and deed of trust, the beneficiary may insist that you do so in order to reinstate your account in good standing. The beneficiary may require as a condition to reinstatement that you provide reliable written evidence that you have paid all senior liens or encumbrances, and insurance premiums. These requirements for reinstatement should be confirmed by contacting the undersigned Trustee.

May 20, 2014, at the hour of 10:00 AM, in accord with the standard of time established by ORS 187.110, at THE FRONT ENTRANCE OF THE COOS COUNTY ANNEX, 1975 McPHERSON, North Bend, County of COOS, State of OREGON, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, the interest in the said described property which the grantor had, or had the power to convey, at the time of the execution by him of the said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named in ORS 86.753 has the right, at any time prior to five (5) days before the date last set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default complained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, and in addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with trustee’s and attorney’s fees not exceeding the amounts provided by said ORS 86.753.

By reason of said default, beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable which sums are as follows: 1) Principal amount of $120,000.00 as of January 2, 2014; 2) accrued interest of $2,293.15 as of January 2, 2014, and interest accruing thereafter on the principal amount at the rate of 7.500% per annum until fully paid; 3) late charges in the amount of $83.91 as of January 2, 2014; 4) amounts that beneficiary has paid on or may hereinafter pay to protect the lien, including but not limited to, ad valorem property taxes, assessments, interest on prior liens, and insurance premiums; 5) expenses, costs, and attorney and trustee fees incurred by the beneficiary in foreclosure, including the cost of a trustees sale guarantee and any other environmental or appraisal report.

In construing this notice, the masculine gender includes the feminine and the neuter, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by said trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any. Anyone having any objection to the sale on any grounds whatsoever will be afforded an opportunity to be heard as to those objections if they bring a lawsuit to restrain the same.
