COOS BAY — He was out of town when it happened. It was a neighbor who discovered Scott Forde’s nightmare.

Sometime around June 13 a thief, or thieves, broke into his home and ransacked the place.

They took just about everything that wasn’t nailed down.

“Whoever came, went through the house drawer by drawer, emptying drawers many times,” Forde said, as he sat and recounted his ordeal. “I don’t even know all they took, because they just emptied drawers.”

He didn’t have insurance, but no amount of money could ever recoup all of what he lost.

A steel Halliburton suitcase and an antique 1931 Mills watermelon nickel slot machine are worth thousands of dollars, and he’d like to get them back. But, he says, his primary desire is to get back the last link he had to his mother.

After her death in 2011, he kept her ashes, with a lock of her hair, inside a green velvet bag on her old bed.

Upon getting the call from his neighbor, describing the state of the house in the 1200 block of Embarcadero Circle in Coos Bay, his mind started racing.

“I was just sick,” Forde said. “I said, ‘Would you look on top of mom’s pillow?’ Because the only thing I really cared about in the whole house is her ashes. He said they’re not there.

“Why would they take mom’s ashes? It was just a meanness.”

He and police have their theories, but the investigation remains suspended for now. There was no sign of forced entry, and police believe whoever is responsible entered through a dog door.

Coos Bay police Sgt. Eric Schwenninger said that, while what was taken certainly makes this an unusual crime, break-ins are all too common.

“Break-ins can happen anywhere across the city, and we see them in all neighborhoods,” he said.

Sometimes, he said, a burglary is a crime of opportunity, when people are away, other times it comes at the hands of someone with an intimate knowledge of the home.

“We hire people into our homes all the time, and you want to have some concept of who those people are,” Schwenninger said.

There are several ways to do just that, he said.

“Make sure they are licensed and bonded, and have a good repSEE ASHES | A8

Destructive wildfires near Lassen BURNEY, Calif. (AP) — Firefighters were focusing on two wildfires near each other in Northern California that have burned through more than 100 square miles of terrain — one of which was menacing a small town and prompted the evacuation of a long-term care hospital.

The Shasta County sheriff had Burney on an evacuation watch after ordering residents of three small neighboring communities to leave Saturday night. The state Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said more than 700 residences were threatened.

The two fires, among 14 burning in the state, started within a day of each other in Lassen National

Forest and had expanded into private property. About 102 square miles had been scorched as of late Sunday night, up from 39 square miles a day earlier.

Burney was threatened by the more destructive of the two, prompting officials at Mayer Memorial Hospital to evacuate their 49-bed annex for patients with dementia and other conditions requiring skilled nursing. The patients were transferred to a hospital in Redding, about 55 miles away, the hospital reported on its website.

Authorities reported that eight homes had burned.

Evacuations also remained in effect for a community on the edge

of the second fire, which was sparked by lightning Wednesday.

About 40 homes were at risk, officials said.

State Department of Forestry and Fire Protection spokesman Dennis Mathisen said Sunday that the two fires were burning through timber and brush left parched by the state’s extended drought. He predicted that the coming week promises not to be any easier.

“Today we are looking at slightly cooler temperatures, but Northern California continues to be hot and dry and breezy in some areas, and in fact we are looking at a fire weather watch going into effect Monday morning for a large portion of Northern and northeast

California and possible thunderstorms, which could mean more lightning,” he said.

Gov. Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency Saturday, saying the circumstances and magnitude of the wildfires are beyond the control of any single local government and will require the combined forces of regions to combat.

Siskiyou County, which borders Oregon, also was contending with two major fires, both started by lightning last week. One of them, which began in Oregon, threatened hundreds of structures and charred nearly 58 square miles in both SEE FIRES | A8

One said he got a paltry, 30-minute seminar on how to evade Cuban intelligence, and there appeared to be no safety net for the inexperienced workers if they were caught.

“Although there is never total certainty, trust that the authorities will not try to harm you physically, only frighten you,” read a memo obtained by the AP. “Remember that the Cuban government prefers

to avoid negative media reports abroad, so a beaten foreigner is not convenient for them.”

In all, nearly a dozen Latin Americans served in the program in Cuba, for pay as low as $5.41 an hour.

The AP found USAID and its contractor, Creative Associates International, continued the program even as U.S. officials privately told their government contractors to consider suspending travel to Cuba after the arrest of contractor Alan Gross, who remains imprisoned after smuggling in sensitive

WASHINGTON — An Obama administration program secretly dispatched young Latin Americans to Cuba using the cover of health and civic programs to provoke political change, a clandestine operation that put those foreigners in danger even after a U.S. contractor was hauled away to a Cuban jail.

Beginning as early as October 2009, a project overseen by the U.S. Agency for International Development sent Venezuelan, Costa Rican and Peruvian young

people to Cuba in hopes of ginning up rebellion. The travelers worked undercover, often posing as tourists, and traveled around the island scouting for people they could turn into political activists.

In one case, the workers formed an HIV-prevention workshop that memos called “the perfect excuse” for the program’s political goals — a gambit that could undermine America’s efforts to improve health globally.

But their efforts were fraught with incompetence and risk, an Associated Press investigation

“We value your safety,” one senior USAID official said in an email.

“The guidance applies to ALL travelers to the island, not just American citizens,” another official said.

The revelations of the USAID program come as the White House faces questions about the oncesecret “Cuban Twitter” project, known as ZunZuneo. That program, launched by USAID in 2009 and uncovered by the AP in April,

Cranberries

BY GAIL ELBER For The World

Oregon produces 40 million pounds of cranberries a year, and more than 90 percent of Oregon’s crop comes from Coos and Curry counties.

Native Americans on Oregon’s northern coast gathered wild cranberries. But it wasn’t till 1885 that Massachusetts native Charles McFarlin realized that cranberries would thrive on Oregon’s sandy South Coast and planted the first vines. Commercial bogs were few until 1946, when the Ocean Spray cooperative expanded its

operations to Oregon.

Today, Coos and Curry counties have more than 150 cranberry farms. The area’s long growing season produces dark, sweet cranberries that are sought after both for fresh consumption and for manufactured cranberry products.

A cranberry bog is a depression surrounded by a dike with a natural or artificial impermeable layer underneath that allows it to be flooded. Once a cranberry vine is planted, with proper cultivation, it can produce fruit for more than 150 years.

In spring, bees are brought to the cranberry farms to pollinate the flowers.

The fruit grows all summer. Sometime between October and December, it is harvested by flooding the fields and using machinery to knock the fruit off the vines. The fruit floats to the surface and is gathered with a conveyor belt.

Cranberries also can be harvested dry with mechanical equipment, a more labor-intensive process that allows the fruit to keep better so it can be sold fresh.

Although the South Coast’s small growers have good seasons and bad, cranberry growing is a South Coast industry that won’t go away. The city of Bandon has celebrated a Cranberry Festival each year since 1946.

Future of the death penalty The surreal national debate over the death penalty reached a climax of sorts July 23 in a prison execution chamber in Florence, Ariz. Double murderer Joseph Wood was put to death by lethal injection shortly after his lawyers went to the Supreme Court raising questions about the drugs that would be used to kill him.

The justices turned Wood down, but his attorneys were right to raise concerns. It turned out Wood’s execution took two hours, as he lay unconscious on a gurney, gasping and waiting for the drugs to work.

Coming after other botched lethal injections in Oklahoma and Ohio, the Wood execution gave renewed energy to activists calling for an end not only to executions by lethal injection but by all other means as well.

“The death penalty simply has no place in this country,” said Brian Stull, an attorney for the ACLU’s Capital Punishment Project. “As method after method of statesponsored killing has been deemed barbaric and archaic, states are left scrambling to invent new ways to execute.”

In this case, Arizona scrambled to find drugs to execute Wood because anti-death penalty activists like Stull have pressured pharmaceutical companies to stop supplying effective drugs to executioners.

BYRON Still, the Wood fiasco YORK could start a new and productive debate on Columnist capital punishment, in part because it spurred an extraordinary statement from a well-respected federal judge.

Alex Kozinski, chief of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, was one of the jurists who listened to Wood’s plea for a stay of execution based on concerns about the lethal injection drugs. The court issued a stay, over Kozinski’s dissent, sending the case to the Supreme Court, which ultimately allowed the execution to proceed.

Kozinski focused his dissent on the broader issue of lethal injection. Older, now-abandoned methods — hanging, firing squads, the electric chair, the gas chamber — were all devised specifically to kill people, he wrote, and did so pretty well. But lethal injection took drugs originally intended to save lives and used them to kill.

“Subverting medicines meant to heal the human body to the opposite purpose was an enterprise doomed to failure,” Kozinski wrote. Using drugs for executions was “a misguided effort to mask the brutality of executions by making them look serene and peaceful.”

If the United States is going to carry out executions — and public support stands at about 60 percent today — Kozinski suggested returning to an old, highly effective method: the firing squad. “Eight or 10 large-caliber rifle bullets fired at close range can inflict massive damage, causing instant death every time,” he wrote.

In a phone interview, Kozinski said he could understand pharmaceutical companies retreating from involvement in capital punishment. “I have some sympathy for the drug manufacturers,” he said. “They’re not in the business of killing people.

They’re in the business of healing people.”

Gun makers, on the other hand, widely sell their products to law enforcement agencies. “We as a society accept weapons as a means of carrying out lawful violent activity,” Kozinski added, pointing to the examples of police, military and security guards.

Of course, an execution by firing squad, unlike lethal injection, would involve blood. But Kozinski concluded, “If we, as a society, cannot stomach the splatter from an execution carried out by firing squad, then we shouldn’t be carrying out executions at all.”

One side effect of the debate over death penalty methods is that it draws attention away from the original crime. The Arizona case began in August 1989, when Wood showed up to see an ex-girlfriend, 29year-old Debbie Dietz, at the Tucson auto body shop her family owned. Dietz’s father, Eugene, was also there. Wood shot Eugene Dietz and then, as Debbie tried to help, Wood grabbed her, said, “I have to kill you,” and shot her, too.

Father and daughter died on the spot.

Debbie Dietz’s sister, Jeanne Brown, watched it happen.

After Wood’s execution, Brown reacted emotionally to observers who called the lethal injection “excruciating.” “You don’t know what excruciating is,” she said.

“Excruciating is seeing your dad lying there in a pool of blood, seeing your sister lying there in a pool of blood. That’s excruciating. This man deserved it.”

Yes, he did. But how to refocus the debate away from methods and back to justice in heinous cases like Wood’s? Alex Kozinski has an idea, and after the Arizona debacle, perhaps some state officials across the country will start listening.

Byron York is chief political correspondent for The Washington Examiner.

Letters to the Editor Close loopholes to fix economy In 1986 U.S. Sen. Bill Bradley and House Rep. Dick Gephardt introduced bills in Congress eliminating most corporate tax loopholes.

Both bills passed legislation.

When the final bill reached President Regan’s desk, he signed it into law. He said, “We are going to close the unproductive loopholes that allow some of the truly wealthy to avoid paying their share.”

The Reform Act of 1986 eliminated $30 billion annually in tax loopholes while decreasing the individual income tax rates. The act raised overall revenue by $54.9 billion in the first fiscal year after it was enacted.

Unfortunately, many of the tax loopholes that were eliminated in 1986 are now back.

In 2010, General Electric made $5.1 billion in profit and paid no taxes as a result of the tax loopholes that are currently in existence.

If government eliminated the tax loopholes like they did in 1986, the increased revenue could provide more for education; science and medicine; hiring police and fireman; maintaining roads and bridges; and lead to the road of recovery and a stable economy.

Fred Lodge Coquille

Bay area seems anti-business I was reading the editorial page in The World last night and came across a statement that caused me to start thinking in a different direction regarding the LNG naysayers.

May I quote a statement by Chris Flemming (July 22) where he quotes another in regard to the safety of the LNG facility in Japan? Mr. Flemming then writes, “The writer neglected to

identify he is the owner of one of the local large businesses hoping to score when the construction crews hit town.” Think for a minute what’s he’s expressing.

Now, what I have to say is mere speculation, but is based on the history of this opposition and how it seems to go into high gear to block any large company attempting to establish itself anywhere near Coos Bay/North Bend. I invite any of you who have lived here for any length of time to think back over the history of the area and myriad of business to have run into the teeth of this opposition and finally given up and gone elsewhere.

Up to now, those vocal in opposition come across as the champions of the “little people” who need a voice; as protectors of our way of life here. But could it be that they have a more ambitious agenda, fueled by an anti-capitalist mindset? Could it be that they will block any big business, out of hand, just because they are “big business”?

Among some, this seems to be a trend in America right now, to pit the middle class and poor against those who have succeeded in their endeavors and became wealthy. (I refer back to the afore-mentioned quote).

It’s just a thought, but leads me to advise the small business owners in this area, with dreams of success, to be careful how you grow.

Lay blame at feet of the GOP In response to the rant by Roger Wilson published July 19.

You seem to think “us Liberals” are bending over backward to allow “everyone” from Central America into this country. You know, don’t you Wilson, that the law signed by Bush in 2003, then re-affirmed by Congress and resigned by Bush in 2008,

requires undocumented minors have legal representation before being processed south. It would seem Bush and the Republicans were the ones casting about for votes from minorities. You should speak to Congress about changing the law. Obama is following the letter of the law.

Since you deem to speak about bankrupting the country, Wilson, let us go there. It was your president Bush who started two wars, paying for them with credit cards. And whose administration pushed for no-bid contracts that benefited Cheney and his band of thieves.

Your president, Wilson, is the great leader who walked the country into the recession of 2007-08, then had the gall to demand $700-plus billion to bail out the very banks and insurance firms that had waltzed us down that road with their illegal and immoral business practices.

At the end of 2008, the DOW was at 8,000. It is now over 17,000. Bad Obama, bad man.

Shame on you bringing the country back from the brink.

And speaking of bankruptcy, last year your tea party, Wilson, shut down the government and cost all of us more than $27 billion in lost revenues, wages and GDP. Obama, there’s that O word again, presented three jobs bills to Congress to boost jobs, taxes, productivity. Your Republicans, Wilson, shot down each bill without presenting an alternative. Good government there.

The narrow-mindedness you express does nothing more for you than stew your gastric juices. Pay attention to facts in the future and save yourself stomach ulcers.

Whose survival instinct is stronger?

There’s something darkly coincidental in the fact that the latest weapon to be deployed against the survival instinct of both Israel and the United States is an alleged “heartlessness” when it comes to children.

The people of Israel are castigated in news media, social media and the “international community” (read: the scoundrel United Nations, of whose budget U.S. taxpayers pay 22 percent) as lacking in “humanity” itself. Why? Because as the IDF fights to end Gaza’s endless rocket barrages against Israel, many children under the age of 18 number among the civilian dead. This London Telegraph headline is not untypical: “Israel’s offensive in Gaza has ‘killed more children than fighters’, say human rights groups. Israel has been accused of waging ‘war on the children’ of Gaza ...”

No mention in the article, however, of Gaza’s purposeful, strategic use of “human shields,” which leads to such civilian casualties. No mention of the directive from the Hamas-controlled Ministry of the Interior instructing civilians to remain in their homes on receipt of advance warnings from Israel to vacate

before a military attack, as the Wa s h i n g t o n Free Beacon first reported.

No mention of Gaza’s use of and schools other civilian sites to store DIANA rockets and other military WEST material, and of Columnist its use of hospitals as Hamas command centers.

Only emotion to the point of frenzy bursts into such agitprop, but it is vital to note that the emotion showing through is hatred for Jews, not love for children. If it were the latter, we would see rage directed at the society that steeps its young in the Jew-hatred of jihad and then turns them into “martyrs” — not at the Jewish society seeking to protect its people, young and old, and, at far too much risk, Gaza’s as well.

Admittedly, there are great differences between Israel’s plight and our own. For one thing, the Israelis are more fortunate in having a government that actually wants to protect its people from invaders. Israel enforces its own border, having fortified it with a

fence. Now, it fights for its inviolability.

Our government, meanwhile, has left our border effectively open, even after 9/11, and has demonstrated no interest in re-establishing national sovereignty.

That said, there are similarities to note in the political attacks on Americans who hope to repulse what they see as deathblows to our remnant republic coming out of the “border crisis.” Anyone worried about the nullification of the southern border; the accelerating usurpation of dictatorial powers by the president; the perils to national security and public safety of open borders.”

Such a narrative tells us that the only “humane” solution to the “crisis” is asylum for “the kids” (and throw in their gang-banger brothers, felon-uncles and whoever else is leaving those prayer rugs on the border). Talk of “rule of law,” and “deportation” is “racist.” Talk of already overstretched American towns where the social fabric has ripped under the stress of refugee resettlement, talk of local public school systems broken by the extraordinary demands of supporting impoverished, illiterate alien populations, is the talk of the “xenophobe.”

What becomes clear is that such “humanity” is only for the foreign-born. Such “humanity,” such concern, is never expressed for our own people — the Americans who, far from TV news studios and government offices, live with and support the aliens and refugees, young and old, in many of America’s hardscrabble cities and less affluent towns.

Our government doesn’t enforce our border — its basic charge — and it is frantically engaged in a vigorous program of what I can only describe as population replacement. We seem to be poised before an unprecedented, anarchic demographic shift bringing large swaths of Central and South Americans into the USA — and the federal government seems to be doing everything it can to enable the shift and make it permanent. My late father ruefully predicted the U.S. would one day become the northern tip of South America. I don’t know if he thought it would happen so quickly.

Who would have imagined, though, that the existence of Israel,surrounded by Islamic enemies sworn to its annihilation, could in some ways seem more assured than our own?

State Fear of the future paralyzes woman who wants children DEAR ABBY: I am a happily married, 26-year-old female with just one problem: I'm afraid to have children.

I have always wanted children, and it's something my husband and I often discuss.

Anytime we are asked when we plan to start our family, we always say four to five years, but we have DEAR been saying this same thing for four years. I a l w a y s thought I'd be ready by now.

My husband has been very JEANNE sick for the PHILLIPS past few years and had to take time off work. We were able to scrape by on my salary, but it was tough. He returned to work recently and is fine. But now all I can think about is how much children cost, and I'm afraid we'll never have enough money to have a baby.

I also worry about what if our child would be killed in an accident, molested or kidnapped! I ask myself why anyone would want to bring children into such a scary world, yet I still want them.

Please help me. I am very upset and don't know what to do. — UNCERTAIN IN TULSA DEAR UNCERTAIN: I understand your concerns and they are valid. Having children is an act of faith as well as an investment in the future.

If you think about it, life itself is a gamble. Mature individuals do everything they can to keep the odds in their favor. They work hard, live healthy lives, buy insurance, start an education fund for their children, etc. There are no guarantees — but people keep having children anyway.

Because you feel stuck in making this decision, it would be helpful to discuss your concerns with a licensed mental health professional who can help you put your fears to rest.

DEAR ABBY: I am a 30year-old mother of a 5-year-old girl. I have been dating "Mack" for two years.

Everything was great at first, but when I moved in with him things changed.

I don't have a car right now. I work less than a mile away, so I walk mostly and don't mind. The problem is, when Mack gets off work, he picks up his son and goes straight home. He doesn't call or text me to ask where I am, or drive by to see where my child and I are walking. When I arrive home, I'll find his son watching TV and Mack doing something else.

I keep telling him I need respect. What would you do if you were in my shoes?

Temperatures are in the mid90s here in the summer, and it can get to you when you're walking. — UPSET MAMA IN TEXAS DEAR UPSET: If you haven't ASKED Mack to pick you up when he leaves work so you're not stuck in the blazing heat — with your child, yet — you should. That he wouldn't think of it himself shows not only a lack of consideration for your feelings but also for your little girl's welfare.

Because his behavior has changed since you started living with him, consider this change to be a red flag. If things don't improve, start looking for other living arrangements for you and your daughter because it appears you and Mack do better when you're not cohabiting.

Legal jockeying begins over abandoned rail line

The Associated Press

Kids in the Bend Parks and Recreation Department's "Summer Lemonade Stand camp" prepare lemonade for sale at Cascade Middle School in Bend.

Camp teaches students about sales, loans, charity BEND (AP) — Andrew Gottlieb and his business partners determined they would need money to start their small business.

So Andrew took charge and drafted a loan request.

“I told them that I know it’s a lot of money, but that we promise to pay you back,” Andrew, 9, said. “And I told them that the money we made would go to charity, so it’s for a good cause.”

Andrew asked for $35 to get his small business up and running. Money that would help him and his business partners buy plastic cups, bags of ice and ample lemonade mix.

The group got $25 from the Bend Park & Recreation District “bank.” Not as much as they wanted, but enough, they determined, to run a lemonade stand.

“I hope they take away a sense of entrepreneurial spirit from this camp,” said Molly Morton, instructor of the Lemonade Stand Management Camp. “I hope, too, that it gives them an understanding of work ethic and teamwork.”

On a recent Thursday, students in the park district camp, all from Bend, put their business savvy to the test. After spending the week learning about marketing, product testing and smallbusiness loans, the four girls and one boy set up a lemon-

ade stand Thursday in the halls of Cascade Middle School, selling icy cold lemonade to hordes of thirsty parents, park district employees and other students participating in recreation programs in the building.

Earlier in the week, the campers learned about the value of promotions in running a business. They learned how to properly treat customers. They made and tested various lemonade recipes. Then, based on what they had learned, they developed a strategy for running their own stand. They decided to go with premade lemonade mix for practicality purposes, charging 50 cents per glass.

“I wanted to charge $1 so we could make more,” Andrew said. “But it was majority rule.”

All profits made from the stand would go toward the park district’s foundation, which provides scholarships for students to attend camps.

Students spent the hour before opening the stand at midday making bright and colorful signs, cutting out handmade coupons and mixing the lemonade powder with water and ice in a cooler.

“I think it’s important to cooperate with your partners,” said Mia Mees, 7, dragging a marker across a

sheet of fluorescent pink poster board. “Everyone has to agree on things for things to work.”

Mia, along with her friend, Emerson Nori, 8, created signs advertising their stand and also created paper coupons: another business strategy the group decided to use to boost sales.

After the lemonade was made and signs were in place, students moved out into the hallway, and waited.

A few minutes later, a small group of customers rounded the corner, prompting students to get to their stations. Emerson greeted them and guided them to the stand. Andrew took their orders and offered them a buy-two, get-one free deal.

Mia added ice to the cups, and Becca Uri, 11, filled them with lemonade from the cooler.

“I think it’s great they’re getting out there and learning these skills,” said Sarah Romish, one of the lemonade stand customers, who works for Bend Park & Recreation.

“They’re quite the sales people.”

Romish said the lemonade was very tasty.

Ralph Uri, another patron, agreed.

“I was thirsty, and it was so hot outside,” Uri said.

“Lemonade seemed like a very good idea.”

CORVALLIS (AP) — No one has sued Benton County yet over a proposal to convert the Bailey Branch right of way into a hiking and biking trail, but property owners along the line are positioning themselves to go to court over the issue.

The latest legal salvo came in the form of a letter to the county commissioners from Corvallis lawyer Peter Barnhisel on behalf of David Horning and Dan Ogle, who own a cattle ranch with about 4,000 linear feet of the defunct rail line running through it.

Barnhisel asserts that the 1911 right of way deed required the railroad and its successors to build fences on both sides of the line and provide crossings, cattle guards and gates, adding that the cost to do the work on his clients’ property today would be about $120,000.

Barnhisel says his clients expect the county to do the work regardless of whether a trail is constructed in the rail corridor but threatens additional legal action if that happens.

“Further,” he writes, “if opening the right of way to the public results in trespassers damaging my clients’ land, equipment or livestock, or if they are subject to injury or damage claims arising from the use of

16-year-old boy lost while swimming in Salem creek SALEM (AP) — Police and fire department units are searching for a 16-year-old boy who had been swimming in Mill Creek in Salem.

Police say he was last seen about 9 p.m. Sunday jumping into the water. He did not surface.

Searchers on shore and in a boat found no sign of him overnight, and divers waited until daylight to continue looking.

Police say the creek has fast and slow-moving water ranging in depth from 2 or 3 feet to pools that are 10 to 15 feet deep.

Several officers heard the shots shortly after 5 a.m. as they arrived at the residence.

Police say the man threw down the rifle and followed commands to get down on the ground. The 32-year-old was taken to a Portland hospital for treatment.

Man who shot Oregon deputy sentenced SALEM (AP) — A man who shot an Oregon sheriff’s deputy during a chase through a snowy Christmas tree field in December pleaded guilty to attempted murder and was sentenced to 22 years in prison.

The Statesman Journal newspaper reports that Cody Edwards asked for forgiveness at Friday’s sentencing and told Marion County Deputy Jim Buchholz he prays for him often.

Buchholz said he returned to work at the Sheriff’s Office only this week after spending months dealing with the trauma.

Oregon man charged with stabbing brother EUGENE (AP) — Authorities arrested a 23year-old man accused of stabbing his older brother at a homeless camp in Lane County.

The Sheriff’s Office says Joshua Caleb Kirk was booked into jail on an assault charge. He’s accused of stabbing his 27-year-old brother, Joseph Brumback of Eugene, during a dispute at a homeless camp that’s near a recycling facility in Glenwood.

The Sheriff’s Office says paramedics found Brumback sitting in front of a tire store Thursday. He was taken to the hospital with a deep laceration to the right side of his back.

the right of way, they will seek indemnity from the county for any losses suffered.”

Rather than incur any of those costs, the letter urges the commissioners to sell the rail corridor to the landowners along the line.

Other property owners along the Bailey Branch corridor have been sounding a similar refrain. A number of them have banded together to hire Lebanon attorney Tre Kennedy to represent their interests.

A spokesman for the group, Bellfountain farmer Frank Nusbaum, said their deeds also require the owner of the right of way to provide fences, gates and crossings, and they are prepared to go to court to force the county to pay the cost of those improvements.

Nusbaum also said his group is prepared to purchase the entire 18-mile corridor for $486,000, the price the county paid last year when it bought the abandoned rail line from the Union Pacific Railroad.

According to county counsel Vance Croney, no formal purchase offer or threat of legal action has been received from that group, but he did have what he termed a productive conversation with Kennedy on July 15.

How to break the bad habit that’s killing your finances Let’s not beat around the bush. Eating out is eating up your future. It’s gobbling down your present and keeping you stuck in the past.

That heavy debt you’re hauling around didn’t happen while you were asleep. Face it: You've been eating your way into debt.

Breaking the eating-out habit is possible. You can do it. It takes motivation, perseverance and practice. It’s all about replacing old habits with a few new ones.

Cost. Track how much you spend on food (including g r o ceries, EVERYDAY offee, CHEAPSKATE cdonuts ... all of it for you and every person in y o u r household) in o n e week, and then Mary multiply Hunt by 52.

Now factor in all the food you throw away that spoils in your kitchen because you buy it and then eat out instead.

Could this be the reason you aren’t able to save or build an emergency fund?

Health. I don’t want to get too graphic here, but recently the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that one in every five restaurant workers admit coming to work while sick with diarrhea and vomiting — two main symptoms of the stubborn norovirus. If you’ve ever gotten sick after eating out, you know what I’m talking about. Norovirus is running rampant. The problem lies with sick workers who take a bathroom break, do not wash their hands with soap, and then return to prepare and serve our food. Is it possible that it’s healthier to eat at home?

Hunger. Do not let yourself or your family get too hungry. This is the big one for me. If I have not planned ahead, and then I cross the line into emergency territory where I must eat right this minute, I’m doomed. I can’t think straight.

Plan ahead. This requires thinking ahead, which means strategic grocery shopping.

Create menu plans, prepare lunches, post a dinner meal schedule on the fridge.

Create menus. When everyone in the family knows what’s coming up, no one is going to be thinking McDonalds.

Hire help. I know I need help with meal planning because I’m one busy gal. I use eMeals (www.everydaycheapskate.com/emeals15).

My meal plan, menus and shopping lists show up in my email box once a week. Yes. I am a fan. An eMeals membership is cheap, too, which of course makes me an even bigger fan. Whether you choose to plan your meals yourself or to get help, getting into a planning mode is essential for breaking the eating-out habit.

Cook. Anyone can learn how to make tasty meals. It takes commitment, good recipes, fresh ingredients and practice. There is no shortage of teachers and training on the Internet.

Check Food.com and Allrecipes.com for videos, recipes and tutorials.

Keep it special. Make eating out something you choose to do on important occasions.

Plot it on the calendar so you can look forward to this as a special treat. Anticipate, celebrate.

Choose a cuisine that you cannot make yourself and you’ll enjoy it even more.

NEWS D I G E S T Star witness testifying in ex-Va. governor trial RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A defense attorney is challenging the credibility of the prosecution’s key witness in former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell’s corruption trial by questioning him about lawsuits he and the company he founded face over allegations of securities violations.

Former Star Scientific Inc. CEO Jonnie Williams is testifying against McDonnell and his wife, Maureen, under an immunity agreement. They are charged with accepting more than $165,000 in gifts and loans from Williams in exchange for promoting his nutritional supplements company’s products.

Ferry overturns while crossing river DHAKA, Bangladesh (AP) — A passenger ferry carrying hundreds of people capsized Monday in central Bangladesh, and authorities said two people died and at least 44 reached safety.

Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Authority Chairman Samsuddoha Khondaker said M.V. Pinak was crossing the River Padma in Munshiganj district when it capsized.

Rescuers and local people recovered two bodies from the water by afternoon and divers were expected to join the rescue efforts shortly, local police officer Khalid Hossain said.

Survivors dug out from China quake that killed 398 KUNMING, China (AP) — Rescuers found scores of survivors Monday as they dug through homes shattered by an earthquake in southern China that killed at least 398 people and injured more than 1,800. Rainstorms were expected to continue to hinder rescue efforts over the coming days.

About 12,000 homes collapsed when the quake struck Sunday afternoon in impoverished Ludian county, around 230 miles northeast of Yunnan province’s capital, Kunming, the official Xinhua News Agency reported.

Rescuers digging in the debris by hand freed a 5year-old boy whose legs were injured, Xinhua reported. It also said firefighters rescued 32 people who had been trapped but had retrieved the bodies of 43 residents.

Drenched survivors, including some half-naked, were sitting along muddy roads in the rain waiting for food and medication, Xinhua reported.Medics were reporting severe shortages of medicine and an inability to perform operations on the severely injured, while rescuers said their work had been hampered by continuous downpours and quake-triggered landslides, Xinhua said.

Nigeria confirms doctor as second Ebola case ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — Nigerian authorities on Monday confirmed a second case of Ebola in Africa’s most populous country, an alarming setback as officials across the region battle to stop the spread of a disease that has killed more than 700 people.

Also Monday, health authorities in Liberia ordered that all those who die from Ebola be cremated after communities opposed having the bodies buried nearby.

Over the weekend, health authorities in the West African country encountered resistance while trying to bury 22 bodies in Johnsonville, outside the capital Monrovia. Military police helped restore order. muscle pains and headaches. Often nausea, vomiting and diarrhea follow, along with severe internal and external bleeding in advanced stages of the disease.

Soldiers cross border into Russia MOSCOW (AP) — A Russian border security official said Monday that more than 400 Ukrainian soldiers have crossed into Russia, although both sides gave conflicting accounts as to why they did it.

The Russian official said the soldiers deserted the Kiev government and the Russian side opened a safe corridor. A Ukrainian military official, who did not give a number for the soldiers involved, were forced into Russian territory by rebel fire after running out of ammunition.

Pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine have been battling the Kiev government since April, a conflict that has claimed at least 1,129 civilian casualties, according to a U.N. estimate.

Dozens of trucks carrying paramilitary troops with banners declaring “Help is on the way” traveled along the four-lane highway from Kunming to Zhaotong on Monday evening.

Heavy rain and thunderstorms in the area were complicating efforts to bring tents, water, food and other relief supplies to survivors.

Roads had caved in, and rescuers were forced to travel on foot.

This July 1, 2013, file photo shows President Barack Obama speaking at a business forum aimed at increasing investment in Africa, in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania. President Barack Obama is gathering nearly 50 African heads of state in Washington for an unprecedented summit aimed in part at building his legacy on a continent where his commitment has been questioned.

Obama hosts Africa summit with an eye on legacy WASHINGTON (AP) — As President Barack Obama immerses himself in talks on Africa’s regional security, democracy building and business investment this week, the world’s attention — and much of his own — will be on an extraordinary array of urgent overseas crises.

Obama is gathering nearly 50 African heads of state in Washington for an unprecedented summit aimed in part at building his legacy on a continent where his commitment has been questioned.

But recent world event emphasize how hard it is for the president to focus attention on areas that he chooses to promote. As the conference begins Monday, a number of international events are competing for his attention.

Among them: Gaza clashes, Russia’s provocations in Ukraine and mounting extremism in Iraq, to name just a few. An outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in West Africa also threatens to cast a shadow over the summit, with leaders from at least two affected countries canceling plans to travel to Washington and the U.S. setting up medical screenings for other officials arriving from those nations.

“It’s the nature of the world we live in today where there are multiple crises at any time,” said Witney Schneidman, the former deputy assistant secretary of state for African affairs. “But that should not paralyze us from moving forward on key areas to advance our interests.”

White House officials say

the American interests in Africa are immense. The continent is home to some of the world’s fastest growing economies and a rapidly expanding middle class. The U.S. is also competing for those consumers with China, which surpassed the United States in 2009 as Africa’s largest trading partner.

“The importance of this for America needs to be understood,” Obama said Friday. “Africa is growing, and you’ve got thriving markets and you’ve got entrepreneurs and extraordinary talent among the people there.”

He added: “Africa also happens to be one of the continents where America is most popular, and people feel a real affinity for our way of life.”

From the start of his presidency, Obama has faced sky-high expectations from African leaders and U.S. policymakers who hoped the son of a Kenyan would bump Africa up the White House list of foreign policy priorities.

Obama’s first trip to subSaharan Africa as president — an overnight stop in Ghana in 2009 — also suggested that he could be an American president able to tell hard truths to the continent’s leaders. During a speech to parliament in Accra, he declared that Africa “doesn’t need strongmen, it needs strong institutions.”

But it would be four years before Obama returned to Africa, a yawnthat raised ing gap questions about the extent of his commitment to continent.

NEW YORK (AP) — Travelers, prepare to pay more for your flight.

The average roundtrip ticket within the U.S., including taxes, reached $509.15 in the first six months of this year, up nearly $14 from the same period last year. Domestic airfare continues to outpace inflation, rising 2.7 percent compared to the 2.1 percent gain in the Consumer Price Index.

Airfare has gone up 10.7 percent in the past five years — after adjusting for inflation — according to an Associated Press analysis of data from the Airlines Reporting Corp., which processes ticket transactions for airlines and more than 9,400 travel agencies, including websites such as Expedia and Orbitz.

The formula for rising fares seems simple, but it

eluded the airlines for years: Match the supply of seats to passenger demand.

“Airlines have reduced the number of seats while more people want to fly because of the economic recovery. All this leads to higher airfares,” says Chuck Thackston, managing director of data and at Airlines analytics Reporting Corp. “This trend in airfares is likely to continue for the near future, as the economy continues to grow.”

Most fliers are traveling for work. And when the economy is strong, they do more flying. Data released by the government last week shows that economic growth bounced back after a brutal winter, businesses are creating jobs at a steady pace and consumer spending is on the rise.

Cease-fire slows war as Israeli bus attacked GAZA CITY,Gaza Strip (AP) — An Israeli-declared temporary cease-fire and troop withdrawals slowed violence in the Gaza war Monday, though an attack on an Israeli bus that killed one person in Jerusalem underscored the tensions still simmering in the region.

Several cease-fires have broken down during the 3 1/2-week war — including Friday when an internationally negotiated truce collapsed amid violence and mutual recrimination between Israel and Hamas.

But with Hamas rocket fire tapering off over the last 24 hours and Israel’s ground operation in Gaza winding down, violence in a war that officials say has killed more than 1,880 Palestinians and over 60 Israelis appeared — for the moment — to be waning.

The lull was broken by the Jerusalem assault, which saw a man ram the front end of a construction excavator into an Israeli bus. Police described the incident as a “terrorist attack,” indicating Palestinian involvement.

The attack occurred on a main thoroughfare near Jerusalem’s light-rail line.

The area is located near the unofficial line between Jewish West Jerusalem and east Jerusalem, the section of the city captured by Israel in 1967 and which is home to most of the city’s Arab population. Israeli media said the attacker came from an Arab area of the city.

Israel’s Channel 10 TV showed cellphone video of what it said was the attack, with the yellow excavator slamming its large shovel into the bus. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said a police officer in the area opened fire and killed the attacker. A pedestrian also was killed, said Jerusalem district police chief Yossi Piranti.

In the past, Palestinian attackers have gone on deadly rampages with bulldozers in Jerusalem traffic.

“Because of the quick reaction of the police an even graver incident was avoided,” Piranti said.

Shortly after the excavator attack, Israeli media reported that a gunman on a motorcycle shot and seriously wounded an Israeli soldier.

Police searched for the shooter in east Jerusalem.

“We believe there is a great likelihood this was a terrorist attack,” Piranti said.

Last week, both sat down at Station Coos Bay to talk about the individual paths that led them here and what challenges may await them in their new command.

While their backgrounds are quite different, their command outlook is, perhaps not so surprisingly, uniform.

Moss, who is from Redmond, is happy to be returning to familiar surroundings. He met his wife at his first Coast Guard station assignment in Newport over 20 years ago, which is also where his son and daughter were born.

“Been in for almost 26 years,” Moss said, “and this will be the sixth surf station that I’ve been to, so it’s really kind of my specialty.”

However, his ties to the Coast Guard in Oregon run even deeper than that.

“As a kid growing up, my

Part of what brought her to Coos Bay was the opportunity for her fiance, a medical professional, to also find work. But it also represented a new challenge for someone who had spent most of her career on the other side of the country.

First established in 1878, Station Coos Bay is located in the mouth of Coos Bay, and is the seventh-largest port on the West Coast.

Moss, for instance, said what some may consider a challenge is really just part of the job for a member of the Coast Guard.

“Keeping people safe, making sure (our people) are trained, they are well equipped,” he said, is the nature of the post. “And then we have to push to get the most proficient people possible. But that’s my mission, you know, I don’t consider that to be a challenge. That’s the job. That is what we signed up for when we took these jobs. There’s good days and bad days, absolutely, but you are going to have that with any job.”

Gordon concurs.

Likewise, both agree teamwork and communication are the secrets to being successful at those jobs.

“That’s the one thing I

love about the military, and about being on a smaller unit,” she said, “just being part of the Coast Guard, in general. We are the smallest service, so we have the opportunity to work more closely and know everybody.

We are very much a family.

“You have to talk, you communicate. to have Everyone needs to know what is going on if the plan is going to work.”

Both also said the community is a big part of their plan, and they encourage people to come by with questions or just to say ‘hello.’

“Our mission, in ‘plain English,’ so to speak, is ‘Protect those on the sea, protect the nation from threats delivered by sea, protect the sea itself,” she said.

“Questions? Want to see the boat? Please, do come on by.”

under the pretext of offering to do work. While they are hoping to find no one home, they may also use the opportunity to get a good look inside. If no one is home, they simply walk around to the back, calling out that they are there for a job.

When they are certain no one is home, they can kickin a back door.

“One of our main prevention tips is to know your neighbors and know their routines. The secondary step is to call law enforcement (when something seems strange). Quite frankly, we are getting paid to answer those types of calls or con-

cerns. We are happy to go out and inquire,” Schwenninger said.

The sad reality, though, is that even if you do all of those things, someone may still break in. If that happens, there are things you can do to increase the odds of getting your property back.

Police say you should photograph, or take a video of, your valuables in their locations inside the home, and then create a list that includes descriptions and serial numbers. Then place the list and video, or pictures, in a safe deposit box or in another home.

Some things, though, are

simply never replaceable.

That is a lesson Scott Forde is hoping others can learn from his experience.

“The sense of violation is almost unbelievable. If there is anything that you really treasure, don’t assume somebody is not going to come into your home.”

Anyone with information about this crime is urged to contact Coos Bay police at 541-269-8911.

If someone has recovered his mother’s ashes and wishes to return them, but doesn’t want to contact police, they can bring them to The World, or be put in contact with Forde directly.

In a statement late Sunday, USAID said the HIV workshop had a dual purpose: It “enabled support for Cuban civil society while providing a secondary benefit of addressing the desire Cubans expressed for information and training about HIV prevention.”

Creative Associates declined to comment, referring questions to USAID. In response to the AP’s report, Rep. Ileana RosLehtinen, R-Fla., said

USAID’s programs were important for human rights in Cuba. “We must continue to pressure the Castro regime and support the Cuban people, who are oppressed on a daily basis,” said Ros-Lehtinen, a Cuban native and vocal supporter of pro-democracy programs there.

Both ZunZuneo and the travelers program were part of a larger, multimilliondollar effort by USAID to effect change in politically volatile countries, government data show. But the

programs reviewed by the AP didn’t appear to achieve their goals and operated under an agency known more for its internationalaid work than stealthy operations. The CIA recently pledged to stop using vaccine programs to gather intelligence, such as one in Pakistan that targeted Osama bin Laden.

Drawing on documents and interviews worldwide, the AP found the travelers program went to extensive lengths to hide the workers’ activities.

Federal fire officials said that along with working to protect homes, one of their priorities was to safeguard a water station that supplies the city of Yreka. Brown secured a federal grant to cover 75 percent of the cost to fight the blaze.

Meanwhile, federal officials asked residents in two communities southwest of Yreka to start preparing to evacuate because of advancing flames from a cluster of blazes that had charred 8.6 square miles by Sunday.

Evacuation orders were lifted in Modoc County near the community of Day, where a lightning-sparked blaze that started Wednesday had torched 20 square miles.

Age-group records fall in Circle the Bay

BY GEORGE ARTSITAS The World

NORTH BEND — Age didn’t seem to matter at this year’s Circle the Bay in North Bend, with some of the youngest and oldest participants alike setting new course records at the South Coast Running Club’s premier event on Saturday.

For the 41st running of the 18.6-mile race, 14-year-old girl Sailor Hutton was the women’s overall winner (fifth overall) and set a new record in her age group by almost 50 minutes. Howard Cohen and Jerry Roberts are a little on the older side — Roberts won the 60-64 age group in 2 hours, 12 minutes and 59 seconds, while Cohen won the 65-69 classification with a time of 2:26:41 — but also came away with course records as well.

Hutton has raced the relay in past years, but this was her first time competing as an individual. Shy after the race, she said finishing with a time of 2:13:45 felt “pretty cool” and admitted setting the record was “amazing, I guess.” What she was certain of was she wanted to own the 0-14 age group record for herself, at least before next year when she’d be too old to do it.

“I didn’t really know the record but I knew that it was reachable,” Hutton explained. She beat the 1993 time of 3:02:20 by Emily Whitworth by 48 minutes and 35 seconds. When asked what motivated her, she said. “Just to say I completed it and give my glory to the Lord.”

The overall winner was Brad Pigage with a time of 1:56:36, beating out the other nearly 150 competitors. Pigage is a

Coast Guard employee who lives in North Bend and had no idea he was going to fare as well as he did. Pigage was still recovering from a 50-kilometer race last weekend — Circle the Bay is only 30 — that raced through Mount Ashland.

After last week’s mammoth race, Pigage said he was “definitely feeling it” throughout the Circle the Bay. As he approached the finish line, Pigage started to slow down to a trudging jog. After he crossed, Pigage crouched down on the ground barely a yard past the finish line.

“I was actually really surprised today,” Pigage said, sitting sprawled out on the grass a few minutes after winning. “I was just going to come out here and see what I could do and then I ended up taking the lead around mile four and I just decided, ‘What the heck, I’m going to go for it.’”

Pigage was followed by Michael Kelly in second with a time of 1:57:23, then 2012 overall winner Brent Hutton in 2:03:15.

Hutton, won the masters (over 40) title, as well as the 40-44 age group, was followed

by Roberts and then Sailor, his daughter.

Sera Matthewes and Chuck “Marathon Junkie” Engle didn’t return to defend their 2013 titles. Matthewes is pregnant and Engle had scheduling conflicts. The event hosted runners from as far as Washington, Idaho, Utah and California.

The first person to cross the finish line was Zach Hammond, the anchor leg of the winning relay team along with Sergio Marroquin and Connor Devereux.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. poses with a broom in Victory Lane after winning the NASCAR race at Pocono Raceway on Sunday. Earnhardt won both of the Sprint Cup Series races at Pocono this year.

Junior completes Pocono sweep LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Dale Earnhardt Jr. traded hats, waited for his cue, and flashed three fingers for the cameras.

That’s one for every win.

The beer baths, champagne toasts, selfies, and photo opps in Victory Lane are almost routine now for Junior.

He added a new wrinkle at Pocono, a broom.

Earnhardt hoisted the broom high over his head after he completed a season sweep at Pocono Raceway, the third win in a season that has served as a career renaissance for NASCAR’s most popular driver.

Earnhardt now holds the No. 1 seed in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

Can he keep the momentum headed into NASCAR’s version of the playoffs?

“You’re the broadcaster,” Earnhardt teased crew chief Steve Letarte about that question.

“You don’t,” the departing Letarte said. “You’re too far from the Chase.”

The legion of Junior Nation fans roared when Earnhardt stormed

ahead of the pack off the final restart with three laps left for the lead. His third win, he also won the Daytona 500, tied him for the most in Sprint Cup this season.

Earnhardt held off the hardcharging Kevin Harvick to become the first driver to sweep both races at the track since Denny Hamlin in 2006.

He tweeted “Lookin for a broom” last week when he landed in Pocono.

He found one in Victory Lane.

“This group all really enjoys each other,” Earnhardt said. “We want to see everybody happy.”

They had tons of fun inside the Pocono media center.

Letarte acted hurt when his nameplate didn’t have the same three winner’s stickers that were on Earnhardt’s card. Earnhardt also brought a Make-A-Wish Foundation teen to the podium and made sure he’d have his own namecard and stickers.

“This is my buddy, Chris. Does he get one,” Earnhardt said.

They all got their stickers — the same ones applied to the No. 88 Chevrolet.

Earnhardt also became the fifth straight Hendrick Motorsports driver to win at Pocono. Owner Rick Hendrick was not at the race, though he did talk to his winning driver on the phone on pit road.

“I told him thanks for believing in me and making my life better,” Earnhardt said.

Earnhardt’s sweep followed Kasey Kahne and Jimmie Johnson last year and Jeff Gordon in the August 2012 race.

Earnhardt has his most wins since he won six times in 2004. His three wins are one shy of his combined total from 2005-2013.His win Sunday was the 22nd of a career still without a Cup championship.

“We had a fast car all day,” Earnhardt said. “Steve’s strategy was perfect at the end. I don’t know if anyone knew what was going on there, but it was pretty awesome.”

Earnhardt said before the race his No. 88 Chevrolet was better than his winner in June. They were both fast enough to take the checkered flag.

AKRON, Ohio (AP) — From links of Britain to the parkland of America, Rory McIlroy is on top of the world again.

In his first start since a wire-towire win at the British Open, McIlroy wiped out a three-shot deficit in only three holes and closed with a 4-under 66 on Sunday to win the Bridgestone Invitational and return to No. 1 in the world.

And just like at Royal Liverpool two weeks ago, Boy Wonder made it look easy.

Sergio Garcia had a three-shot lead going into the final round at Firestone. McIlroy fired off three straight birdies and already had the lead when he stood on the fourth tee. He took over the lead for good with an 8-foot birdie putt on the 11th hole, got some breathing room when Garcia made bogey on the 15th hole, and the 25-yearold from Northern Ireland cruised home to a two-shot victory.

Garcia closed with a 71, though his runner-up finish was enough to move him to No. 3 in the world.

McIlroy became the 13th player with a major and a World Golf Championship, and joined Tiger Woods as the only players to win them in consecutive starts.

Woods wasn’t around to see it.

Rory McIlroy poses with the championship trophy after winning the Bridgestone Invitational on Sunday. surgery, and in his third tournament since his return, Woods injured his lower back when he landed with a thud in the sand from an awkward stance atop a bunker on the second hole. He withdrew after a tee shot on the ninth hole, bending over slowly and struggling to remove the tee from the ground.

It was not clear Woods could play in the PGA Championship next week.

McIlroy heads south to Valhalla with a full head of steam. After a brief celebration with the claret jug, he was determined to move forward and chase more titles over the final four months of the year.

Sports Timbers fall on Keane’s late goals THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CARSON, Calif. — Robbie Keane scored twice to help the Los Angeles Galaxy beat the Portland Timbers 3-1 on Saturday.

Keane broke a tie in the 73rd minute, beating defenders to the back post to head home Landon Donovan’s left-footed service. Keane converted a penalty shot in the 85th minute to seal the victory. It was his 12th goal of the season, moving him to fourth in MLS. The Timbers opened the scoring when Diego Valeri converted a free kick into the upper right corner from just outside the box in the 14th minute. Los Angeles nearly tied it in the 29th minute, but Gyasi Zardes’ header hit the bar squarely.

The Galaxy (9-4-6) drew even in first-half stoppage time as Zardes didn’t miss his next chance, heading Robbie Rogers’ left-footed cross past goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts.

Portland fell to 6-7-9.

New York Giants running back Rashad Jennings runs the ball in the first quarter of the Hall of Fame Game on Sunday.

Giants win Hall of Fame Game CANTON, Ohio (AP) — Andre Williams ran up some big numbers at Boston College. The fourth-round draft pick is showing glimpses that can do it for the New York Giants, too.

Williams had seven carries for 48 yards and scored on a 3-yard run in a 1713 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night in the preseason-opening Hall of Fame Game.

“It gives me confidence. I feel like I’m supposed to be here,” said Williams, who led the nation with 2,177 yards rushing last season. “I’m part of the team now.”

And a more important part with David Wilson sidelined after sustaining his second neck injury in less than a year.

Filling the No. 2 spot behind newly acquired starter Rashad Jennings, the Heisman Trophy finalist helped provide the Giants’ re-tooled backfield a 1-2 punch.

“I though he played well, and that

was encouraging,” coach Tom Coughlin said. “David Wilson’s injury not-withstanding, it’s very important to us no matter what, because you need a natural rotation.”

Williams’ score, which came after a 21-yard scamper off left tackle, put the Giants up 7-3 late in the first quarter.

Rookie receiver Corey Washington scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 73-yard pass up the right sideline from backup Ryan Nassib with 13:18 remaining. Washington reached back to catch the partly under-thrown pass, then stepped around flat-footed defender Kamaal McIlwain.

Nassib, competing for the backup spot, went 7 of 12 for 139 yards.

Starter Eli Manning played three series, and finished 6 of 7 for 43 yards, but lost a fumble.

For Buffalo, starting quarterback EJ Manuel had several lapses during two series. He completed just 2 of 7 attempts for 19 yards, and nearly had a pass inter-

cepted by linebacker Jacquian Williams inside the New York 10. Manuel never looked off his intended target Sammy Watkins and was fortunate to have Williams bat the ball down.

“I would have liked to throw a touchdown pass or to score a touchdown while I was in, but it’s our first game,” said Manuel, the second-year player who has been inconsistent through the first two weeks of training camp. “We got our feet wet, and we’re looking forward to moving on to playing Carolina.”

Coach Doug Marrone didn’t sound as positive regarding the play of any of his quarterbacks.

“Obviously, the performances were not good for a win,” Marrone said.

“We’ve got to get better, all of them.”

Bills backup Jeff Tuel hit Robert Woods for a 2-yard touchdown pass on fourth-and-goal to put Buffalo ahead 10-7 early in the second quarter. Tuel finished 12 of 17 for 74 yards and an interception.

Seven players join Pro Football Hall CANTON, Ohio (AP) — Andre Reed delivered the emotion and managed to hook up for one more catch from Jim Kelly on the Pro Football Hall of Fame stage.

And leave it to Michael Strahan and his familiar gaptoothed grin to bring the laughs in closing the ceremony honoring the seven inductees Saturday night.

The defensive end cracked he was still a little scared of former New York Giants teammate Lawrence Taylor.

Strahan singled out former Philadelphia tackle Jon Runyan in the crowd and referred to him as his toughest opponent and “350 pounds of twisted steel and non-sex appeal.”

Strahan, one of the game’s most dominant pass-rushers, closed the ceremony that ended just before midnight — nearly two hours later than scheduled.

The ceremony went so late that Strahan noted that it was past his bedtime and joked that if the event lasted any longer he and his fellow inductees would be considered the 2015 class.

Also inducted were offensive tackle Walter Jones, linebacker Derrick Brooks, defensive back Aeneas Williams, defensive end Claude Humphrey and Ray Guy, who became the first fulltime punter to be selected.

It was Reed, the former Buffalo Bills receiver, who stole the spotlight by closing his induction speech with a poignant surprise.

Turning his back to the crowd, Reed caught a pass from Kelly before sharing a lengthy hug with his former teammate and now fellow Hall of Famer.

It was a fitting finish for a

And it was a moment that paid homage to the quarterback, who has spent the past 14 months battling cancer.

“You taught us not to quit,” Reed said about Kelly.

“You have endured a lot in your life. The loss of your son, and most recently your battle with cancer. You’re an inspiration to all you touch.”

Kelly was near tears, and the thousands of Bills fans in the crowd cheered.

The ceremony began with Brooks, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers star, who was selected for induction in his first year of eligibility, and followed by the 70-year-old Humphrey, who retired after the 1981 season.

“Now they tell me I only had 10 minutes up here, but let me start off by telling you that I’ve waited 30 years to get to this podium, so don’t rush me guys,” said

Humphrey, a six-time Pro Bowl selection who split 13 NFL seasons between the Atlanta Falcons and Philadelphia Eagles.

Guy’s wait was nearly as long. The seven-time Pro Bowl selection spent his 14year career with the Angeles Oakland/Los Raiders. At 64, he was selected for induction in his 23rd year of eligibility.

“It’s been long, long overdue, but now the Hall of Fame has a complete team,” said Guy, who had as many as 20 former punters in the crowd to help him celebrate.

“To know my legacy will be forever part of pro football history and that my bust will be alongside the greatest athletes of all time, it leaves this old punter speechless.”

Williams livened up the mood late in his speech during which he had one side of Fawcett Stadium chanting: “Begin with the end in mind,” to remind people how impor-

tant it is to set goals.

And he had the other side chanting: “Die empty,” to remind people to give their all.

It was a fitting message from an eight-time Pro Bowl selection. He was an accounting major at Southern University, who walked on to the football team a week before the start of his junior season. He went on to play 14 seasons for the Cardinals and Rams.

Jones, a nine-time Pro Bowl selection who spent his 12-year career in Seattle, thanked Seahawks fans for their overwhelming support.

He is the third Hall member who spent his entire career in Seattle, joining receiver Steve Largent and defensive tackle Cortez Kennedy.

Brooks, an 11-time Pro Bowl selection, paid tribute to family members, teammates and coaches, from his PeeWee playing days to his 14 NFL seasons in Tampa Bay.

world ranking.

He lost the No. 1 position in March 2013 when his game was in a downward spiral as he was adjusting to a new equipment deal and going through another management change. But since winning the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth at May, his game looks as strong as ever.

“It feels like a long time since I lost that No. 1 spot, but it feels good to be back on

top,” McIlroy said.

“Hopefully, I can keep it for a while.”

Garcia was a runner-up to McIlroy for the second straight time.

The Spaniard had the daunting task of making up a seven-shot deficit at the British Open, and Garcia put up a great fight until finishing two shots behind at Hoylake. Staked to at threeshot lead at Firestone, it didn’t go much better.

Garcia missed a 6-foot birdie on the par-5 second hole with a putt that never looked as if it was going in.

His lead down to one, Garcia pulled his tee shot into the gallery on the third hole, striking a woman on the hand and knocking the diamond out of her ring. The diamond was found, about the lone bright spot in his day. Garcia made bogey, and McIlroy rolled in another birdie putt to take the lead.

Dixon wins IndyCar race after starting in last spot LEXINGTON, Ohio (AP) — Scott Dixon and his Target Chip Ganassi team had planned on four pit stops.

Then Dixon changed his mind — and his and his team’s luck.

Dixon went from last in qualifying to capture his fifth win at Mid-Ohio in the last eight years, coasting in on low fuel Sunday to finally end his team’s victory drought in 2014.

“It was probably around Lap 30, we had to really go for it and switch it up,” he said about the altered game plan to go hard and then conserve fuel while playing keep-away with the lead.

The 34-year-old New Zealander, who started last in the 22-car field, also won on the twisty road course between Cleveland and Columbus in 2007, 2009, 2011 and 2012.

“To come from last to even a top-10 here was going to be extremely difficult to do,” he said. “But we laid down some quick laps, passed some people and then hung on.”

Target Chip Ganassi has won the last six races at the track, breaking through this season in a familiar place.

Pole-sitter Sebastien Bourdais was a distant second, with James Hinchcliffe third, rookie Carlos Munoz fourth and favorite son Graham Rahal fifth. “(Starting) 17th to (finishing) third sounds impressive until you talk about Scott,” Hinchcliffe joked. “He’s got to go and showboat, like he always does here.”

Dixon led a total of 45 laps, winning the strategy battle against the top contenders while capturing his

The Associated Press

Car owner Chip Ganassi congratulates Scott Dixon, of New Zealand, after Dixon won the IndyCar Honda Indy 200 auto race in Lexington, Ohio, on Sunday.

34th series win and first since Houston last October.

He beat runner-up Bourdais by 5.3864 seconds.

Almost immediately after getting the checkered flag, just after going past pit row,

he pulled quickly over into the grass near the first turn and pumped his fist to fans.

He was not out of gas, he said. But he could have been.

“The (low) fuel light came up with about a lap and a half

to go,” he said. “If you were listening to the radio, you would have heard a lot of random chatter. We conserved for most of the last lap. The way our year has gone, it’s a wonder I didn’t run out and have to walk back.”

It was the farthest back a winner had started since Max Papis won at Laguna Seca in 2001. But Dixon has done this before. In 2001, he started 23rd at Nazareth and came all the way through the field to win.

After qualifying went poorly in the rain Saturday, Dixon said, “Not the best qualifying we’ve had this year, I can tell you that. There just wasn’t any grip to be found out there. We’ll have to come up with a great strategy tomorrow to dig us out of this hole.”

That’s exactly what they did.

Will Power, second in the drivers’ standings coming in, took over the No. 1 spot when leader Helio Castroneves had throttle problems on a pace lap. Power finished sixth while Castroneves, who would end up with the fastest lap of the day, was 19th.

Bourdais, after winning his second pole of the season, maintained the lead for most of the opening 30 laps.

But there were surprises early.

Castroneves, who started 15th, was four laps behind because of the early problems.

The race hadn’t had a single caution the last two years, but that didn’t last long. On the opening lap there was a mishap on the sharp turn called the keyhole that resulted in the noses getting knocked off the cars of Marco Andretti and Tony Kanaan.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ST. LOUIS — John Lackey won his St. Louis debut when the Cardinals rallied for three runs in the seventh inning, capped by a go-ahead hit from rookie Oscar Taveras to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 3-2 on Sunday.

The Cardinals took two of three from NL Central-leading Milwaukee and pulled within one game of the division lead.

Lackey (1-0) was the Cardinals’ big catch at the trade deadline that capitalized on Boston’s sell-off. The right-hander who won the clinching Game 6 of MLB the World Recap Sa geari ines st St. Louis last fall held Milwaukee to two runs in seven innings and is 12-7 overall.

Trevor Rosenthal struck out Carlos Gomez with two on for his major league-leading 34th save in 38 chances.

Diamondbacks 3, Pirates 2: Arizona runner Nick Ahmed put his arms up as he slid into second base and deflected a potential double play relay in the 10th and the inning, Diamondbacks beat Pittsburgh.

Manager Clint Hurdle and the Pirates lingered on the field to argue with the umpires, to no avail. The umpires said the call couldn’t be challenged.

With runners at the corners and one out, Andy Marte hit a grounder to shortstop Jordy Mercer, who flipped to second baseman Jayson Nix for a forceout.

As Nix threw to first, his toss hit Ahmed and the ball rolled away, allowing Tuffy Gosewich to score the winning run.

The Asssociated Press

St. Louis starting pitcher John Lackey throws during the second inning of his debut with the Cardinals on Sunday against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Nationals 4, Phillies 0: Stephen Strasburg (8-9) struck out 10 while pitching three-hit ball for seven innings, earning his first win in a month as the Washington Nationals beat Philadelphia.

Giants 9, Mets 0: Madison Bumgarner (13-8) pitched a two-hitter and Hunter Pence homered twice to lead the San Francisco Giants past the New York Mets.

Padres 4, Braves 3: Everth Cabrera singled in the winning run with two outs in the 10th inning and the San Diego Padres sent Atlanta to its sixth straight loss.

Reds 7, Marlins 3: Billy Hamilton scored three times to help the Cincinnati Reds break out of an offensive slump and beat Miami.

Cubs 7, Dodgers 3: Edwin Jackson (6-11) pitched six innings for his first victory in six weeks and Chris Coghlan hit a tiebreaking two-run homer as the Chicago Cubs beat the Los Angeles Dodgers.

AMERICAN LEAGUE Orioles 1, Mariners 0: Chris Tillman pitched seven innings of three-hit ball to outduel Hisashi Iwakuma, Nick Markakis hit his first career leadoff homer and Baltimore beat Seattle.

Tillman (8-5) struck out six and walked none to earn his first win since June 27. A second-round draft pick by

Seattle in 2006, Tillman is 60 in six career starts against the Mariners.

Iwakuma (9-6) allowed one run, five hits and two walks in 7 2-3 innings. He lost on the road for the first time in 15 starts since July 2013, going 9-0 over that span.

Royals 4, Athletics 2: James Shields (10-6) pitched eight sharp innings for his first win in nearly a month, and the Kansas City Royals beat Oakland.

Shields retired his first 15 batters before Josh Reddick hit a leadoff homer in the sixth. Reddick homered again in the eighth.

The A’s have the best record in baseball at 67-43, but have sputtered offensively since trading cleanup hitter Yoenis Cespedes to Boston on Thursday in a deal for ace Jon Lester.

Yankees 8, Red Sox 7: Brett Gardner hit a tiebreaking homer in the sixth inning for one of his three hits, helping New York to the road win.

Former Red Sox infielder Stephen Drew had a pair of hits and drove in four runs in his third game with the Yankees since he was sent there at the trading deadline.

Angels 7, Rays 5: Mike Trout hit an RBI double to key a five-run first inning and the Los Angeles Angels beat Tampa Bay in a game delayed by a power outage at Tropicana Field.

There was a 19-minute

wait during the third inning after lightning struck a nearby power substation, causing some of the stadium lights to go out.

Twins 16, White Sox 3: Rookie Danny Santana had five hits and four RBIs, and the Minnesota Twins scored nine times in the eighth inning of a rain-delayed romp over the Chicago White Sox. Astros 6, Blue Jays 1: Scott Feldman (5-8) worked around eight hits in his first complete game in nearly a year, Chris Carter and Matt Dominguez each had two RBIs and the Houston Astros beat Toronto.

Indians 4, Rangers 3: Michael Brantley homered to lead off the bottom of the 12th inning and the Cleveland Indians swept Texas.

Brantley sent a full-count pitch from Phil Klein (0-1) into Texas’ bullpen in right field. It was the Indians’ seventh win of the season on a game-ending hit.

INTERLEAGUE Tigers 4, Rockies 0: Anibal Sanchez (8-5) struck out 12, Victor Martinez hit a three-run homer and the Detroit Tigers finished off a weekend sweep of Colorado.

In the three-game sweep, Justin Verlander, Rick Porcello and Sanchez combined for a 1.57 ERA with 27 strikeouts and two walks in 23 innings.

Earnhardt had a bit of luck in his first win when debris slowed down race leader Brad Keselowski. On Sunday, no one could touch Earnhardt over the final 14 laps.

“We were determined to go home from the last win and improve the car,” he said.

Earnhardt and Letarte are clicking in their final season together.

Hendrick Motorsports named Greg Ives the crew chief for 2015 once Letarte heads to the broadcast booth.

“I think he’s going to make me look bad,” Letarte said. “Mr. Hendrick has a remarkable talent of matching drivers with crew chiefs.”

Harvick, who clinched a spot in the Chase, was second, followed by Joey Logano, Clint Bowyer and Greg Biffle.

Gordon finished sixth a week after he won the Brickyard 400. He led a racehigh 63 laps and passed 24,000 career laps led in the No. 24 Chevrolet and 1,000 laps led at Pocono. He still holds a 17-point lead over Earnhardt in the standings.

Earnhardt would have the No. 1 seed because he was one more win than Gordon.

Earnhardt, who swept a track for the first time since Talladega in 2002, had few cars left to hold off on the lead lap after several potential contenders got knocked out.

Hamlin triggered a 13-car wreck with 43 laps left after he got sideways coming out of a turn. Brian Vickers tried to avoid Hamlin and slammed into Matt Kenseth

BAY From Page B1 The three runners — all Marshfield graduates — finished with a time of 1:48:03.

This was Devereux’s fourth straight year compiling a team and winning the relay.

All three of the team members run long distance for the Oregon Institute of Technology track team and

to send cars all over the track.

The pileup looked like a “Big One” straight out of Talladega or Daytona, with smoking, dented and destroyed cars littering the track. Tony Stewart’s No. 14 Chevrolet rested atop Paul Menard’s No. 27 Chevy.

“I can’t drive it because my car is on top of the other car,” Stewart said over the radio.

Stewart, Vickers, Menard and Matt Kenseth all visited the NASCAR care center.

“Big wrecks are always frustrating when you’re in it,” Kenseth said.

Aric Almirola said he slammed on the brakes as hard as he could, but still got “creamed from behind and pushed into the wreck.”

Hamlin was able to straighten himself out and stayed out.

Kyle Busch topped the lengthy list of stars with an early exit when the No. 18 needed a push to the garage with a variety of issues. Sixtime champion Jimmie Johnson finished outside the top 10 for the fourth straight race. He fell a lap down after his rear right tire smacked the wall, rebounded to run fifth, then a second blown tire forced him to the garage.

“It wasn’t the best weekend but we still gave ourselves a chance at a win, if not a top five, today and came up a little short,” Johnson said.

His teammate carried the Hendrick banner all the way to victory.

“After last year, I thought the only thing we’re not doing is winning,” Earnhardt said.

Now, the good things come in threes.

do cross country. For Hammond, who steeplechases at OIT, he sees the circle around the bay as good training for cross country.

“It’s more race realistic, “ Hammond said, wearing a stenciled ‘McLovin’ on his back followed by a winkyface emoticon. “It fits right into our training, especially in the preseason. It gives us a good look at our pace.”

BRIDGE Nancy Mitford, an English novelist who was perhaps best known for her essay about U and non-U English (upper class and non-upper class), said, “Surely a king who loves pleasure is less dangerous than one who loves glory.”

At the bridge table, a king who takes a trick is more pleasurable than one who proves powerless. Worse, though, is a king who does not take a trick when it should have done.

In this deal, East has to make the key plays. Defending against four

hearts, how should East plan the defense after West leads the club queen?

South’s two-heart rebid guaranteed at least a six-card suit and promised 12-14 high-card points.

One of the keys of good defensive play is that if you lead a low card from length, you are promising at least one honor in that suit and expressing an interest in trying to win tricks in that suit. And this applies right through the deal, not just at trick one.

Sometimes, though, your low card is not so low. Then you need to hope that partner is alive to the possibility.

East takes the first trick with his club ace; ducking cannot be right, because declarer might have a singleton king. Then, though, returning a club probably will not help. Dummy’s spades are threatening to provide declarer with discards. Instead, East should shift to the diamond eight. If partner does not have the ace, this play will at worst concede an unnecessary overtrick.

Here, though, West should win the trick and return the diamond two, lowest from three remaining cards. This gives the defenders the first four tricks for down one.
