CB blocks medical marijuana outlets City Council votes to reinforce an existing ordinance that prohibits medical pot dispensaries in city limits ■
BY TIM NOVOTNY The World
COOS BAY— Despite receiving a written threat implying that no one from the Oregon Country Fair would ever visit Coos Bay, the City Council still voted 6-1 to effectively prohibit medical marijuana dispensaries within city limits. City Councilor Mike Vaughan was the lone dissenting vote. With a moratorium in place as they studied the issue, the council found the answer to their dilemma already existed within city laws. According to the background information on Tuesday’s agenda, “based on a review of the city attorney, amending the existing Business License ordinance
would be sufficient to deny business licenses to any business which was not in compliance with both state and federal laws.” Mayor Crystal Shoji explained Wednesday that the council’s decision was to, basically, reaffirm and clarify that section of the ordinance. They note that other jurisdictions, like Medford, have taken a similar route. Ordinance 5.05.080, dealing with license applications, has a section that reads that “approval or denial of the application shall be based on consideration of all available evidence as to whether the proposed business will meet the requirements of the City Charter and ordinances.” The next line is the one that the city council amended at Tuesday’s meeting. Preceding a list of four hurdles to overcome, the line changed from “the license may not be granted” to “the license shall not be granted.”

INSIDE
COOS BAY — Will it be patriotism, tradition or a desire for something new that ultimately unfurls upon the flagpoles that line the Coos Bay Boardwalk? The city is calling the question, and they want residents to help them decide whether or not to change the 22 flags that adorn the city’s bayfront. Traditionally, the city flew international flags as a nod toward the heritage of the international port designation for Coos Bay. That took a patriotic

change under a different City Council back in 2009, when it was decided to fly the American flag on all flag poles until all troops returned from Iraq and Afghanistan. A taller, lighted United States flag has also remained flying across the street at the Purple Heart Memorial. In 2012, the City Council voted to stay the course with the stars and stripes. Still, Mayor Crystal Shoji said this week the questions keep coming in about when they might change back, or if the council will adopt a new policy entirely. She noted that, even if they go back to international flags, the allU.S. theme could be flown once again during holidays, like Independence Day and Memorial Day. “It’s one of those little

things, but we get a lot of people wondering if we are going to go back to the international flags, which I like,” Shoji said Wednesday. “We are a port city. We are an international port. So, I do think that is meaningful, but other people might have other ideas and we are welcoming those.” Shoji says at this point the council is just taking some public input. They could make a decision sometime in the next couple of months. However, there is no strict time table. This is just to get people thinking and talking about what they would like to see. In Coos Bay’s August newsletter, other options were suggested based on a variety of real world examSEE FLAGS | A8

COOS BAY — A new casino is coming to Coos Bay. The Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians are in the midst of building Three Rivers Casino Coos Bay on reservation land on Ocean Boulevard, across from Honda World. Tribal Council Chairman Bob Garcia said the 15,000-square-foot facility is slated to be completed sometime in May. By the time it opens, he said it will employ 50 to 60 full-time positions, with benefits. Unlike the tribes’ Three Rivers Casino and Hotel in Florence (a Class III gaming facility), the Coos Bay casino will be Class II. “We have a compact with the state for Three Rivers (in Florence),” Garcia said. “This (the Coos Bay project) doesn’t
Hurricane to hit Hawaii HONOLULU (AP) — Iselle was supposed to weaken as it slowly trudged west across the Pacific. It didn’t — and now Hawaii is poised to take its first direct hurricane hit in 22 years. Tracking close behind it was Hurricane Julio, which strengthened early Thursday into a Category 2 storm. State officials are assuring the islands are ready and people should prepare but not panic.

require a compact.” Under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, Class III gaming facilities, which include games like blackjack, craps and roulette, require a gaming compact with the state. Class II gaming facilities do not, and are primarily regulated by the tribal gaming commissions themselves. In fact, this is the land on which the tribes had originally proposed to build a casino, before the Coquille Indian Tribe opened the Mill Casino-Hotel in 1995. Three Rivers Casino Coos Bay was designed by Thalden Boyd Emery Architects. Chambers Construction, of Eugene, was contracted for the project, which will cost more than $5 million. It will hold 250 Class II gaming devices (which can include bingo and nonbanking card games) and a restaurant and bar. For more information, call Garcia at 541-999-1320.

‘Welcome to North Bend’ sign BY GAIL ELBER
installed on new support pylons closer to the bridge than the original. When engineers deemed the old sign and its pylons unsafe, the city considered erecting a sign using modern LED technology. But tradition won out. The Oregon Department of Transportation also kept tradition in mind when it “grandfathered in” installation of the new sign. The 1936 sign was one of the last over-the-highway neon signs ever approved in the state. Art Deco doodads on the new sign and the design of the new pylons reflect the style of the iconic McCullough Bridge nearby. The city donated the previous sign to the Coos County Historical and Maritime Museum.
For The World
In 2011, the City of North Bend installed the current “Welcome to North Bend/Come Back to North Bend” sign at the north entrance to town. It’s the latest in a succession of signs that have graced that location since 1936. The original sign and its successors underwent various repairs and improvements, but too often, in the rainy and windy coastal climate, they welcomed visitors to NO TH B ND. The original sign was red neon, but it was changed to green at some point. The current sign is a red neon replica

North Bend’s neon sign, pictured circa 1930, over Sherman Avenue is one of the few that arches over a state or federal highway. Erected in November 1936, its steel structural supports echo the design of McCullough Bridge. During winter months, the $790 sign was illuminated from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m.
Zonta puts supplies in students’ bags BY CHELSEA DAVIS
2000-2001 school year, the club spent $2,900 on school supplies. This year, the club had a $15,000 budget. Zonta president Debbie Schade said the goal is to put supplies in the hands of all elementary and some middle school children in the county who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. In Coos County, that’s the majority of the population: on the lower end, 53 percent of North Bend students qualify, while 71 percent qualify in Reedsport. The club collects data from every school district in the county at the end of the year and starts ordering supplies immediately. This year, the club was able to buy more than 700 backpacks and even some flash drives. Big ticket items include 2,500 boxes of crayons, 1,000 bottles of glue and 1,000 notebooks. Funds for this program come from

Keeping the county healthy Our view Coos County once again has a highly qualified public health director. Help her do her job.
What do you think? The World welcomes letters. Email us at letters@theworldlink.com.
Coos County appears to have picked a good candidate to take the helm of the Public Health department. Florence Pourtal-Stevens has an impressive list of credentials, including worked in program manager and administrative positions for nongovernmental health organizations abroad like Pharmacists Without Borders, Doctors Without Borders and Hands to Hearts International in Portland. Her background is rich in experiences with different cultures around the globe. We think her world view will bring a fresh perspective on
the county’s public health challenges. And those challenges are daunting. Pourtal-Stevens’ very capable predecessor, Nikki Zogg, who resigned in March, had just completed the county’s first ever comprehensive public health survey. The survey found that Coos County is one of the unhealthiest in the state. For example, 27 percent of adults in the county smoke, as compared to the state’s average of 17 percent and the nation’s average of 13 percent. Another dubious distinction: leading the state in
chronic disease, including respiratory diseases, arthritis, asthma, heart attacks, angina, stroke, hypertension and high cholesterol. Residents also need better access to health and dental care. Mental health care is also a weakness. The county’s suicide rate of 29.4 percent is 70 percent higher than the state average. Pourtal-Stevens has a heavy task before her. That’s why it’s important that she and her department get help from us. The county is currently conducting a survey to find
out what barriers keep you from getting good health care. AmeriCorps VISTA volunteer Nicole Bowman is in charge of the project, hoping to identify and close gaps in needs and delivery. But she needs your participation. Take the survey. Go to https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/publichealthservi ces, or pick up a hard copy at the public health department. This is your chance to contribute to improving the county’s overall public health profile. And goodness knows, we could stand to see some improvement.
Doing well by doing bad How curious to watch “60 Minutes,” the famously hard-hitting TV newsmagazine, bless JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon with prime-time beatification for hiring some interns from poor backgrounds. The segment’s headline is “Jobs program benefits Fortune 500 and underprivileged youth.” “Many of the country’s most powerful CEOs are finding that they can do well by also doing good,” growls Morley Safer like the war correspondent he once was. The subject is Year Up, a “boot camp” that grooms struggling young people for corporate jobs. Let’s say this right off: Year Up is a wonderful program. Founded by tech entrepreneur Gerald Chertavian, it deserves the highest praise. But there’s Dimon sharing the glory for doing the smallest of good — very small, given the Wall Street behemoth’s $18 billion annual income. Safer’s questions are so affectionate that Dimon almost seems embarrassed being asked them. FROMA “Now firms like J.P. HARROP Morgan are actually paying Year Up $23,000 per Columnist intern,” Safer says with awe. Actually, the investment bank’s hotshots spend more than that on one month’s American Express bill. “Has that investment paid off for you?” Safer asks. Yes, it has, answers Dimon. His company has done well by doing good. But it’s done so much better by doing bad. For instance, JPMorgan Chase recently settled government charges that it palmed garbage mortgages on unsuspecting investors. At the bottom of this subprimemortgage food chain were the low- and moderate-income borrowers milked by exploding interest rates and punishing upfront fees. Many lost their houses in the inevitable financial collapse. Since 2011, JPMorgan Chase has made an estimated $185 million helping American companies renounce their U.S. citizenship to avoid paying taxes in this country — all the while staying put. We speak of the “inversion” loophole, whereby a company merges with a smaller one in a lower-tax country and then claims to be based there. President Obama has called companies exploiting this tax trick “corporate deserters.” Exploitation of the loophole is expected to deprive the U.S. Treasury of close to $20 billion over the next decade. Other taxpayers will have to fill the gap — or we could cut government programs, including those that help “underprivileged youth.” The investment banks say that if they don’t do the deals, their competitors will. That may be true, but Wall Street owns Congress. If JPMorgan Chase really wanted to make a patriotic gesture, it could lead an industrywide campaign urging Congress to end the dodge. Don’t these societally damaging activities rate at least a dishonorable mention on “60 Minutes"? Worry not. The newsmagazine markets itself as hard-nosed investigative journalism, so it will get around to the “uncomfortable” part — to the ugly details. Right? “It’s no secret that Wall Street’s image has been tarnished over the last couple of years,” Safer eventually says, letting mild skepticism creep into his voice. He’s so scary that Dimon feels obliged to respond with a sheepish laugh. Safer goes on: To what extent is this activity “window dressing” to show “civic responsibility”? Dimon responds: “I think we are civically responsible. We don’t want to drive successful people down. You want to get people who don’t have the opportunity, you want to give them the opportunity.” And “60 Minutes” lets it go at that. “60 Minutes” still does some great investigative pieces, but sheesh. Sometimes that clock ticks down in a sad way.
Letters to the Editor Go ahead and run I recently met two overqualified potential candidates for Coos Bay City Council. Both wanted to run for office; neither intended to do so. Reason, both joined the labor force following high school to support their families, and both were concerned because they did not have a university degree. I would have eagerly voted for both. I urge others in a similar situation to reconsider. I was blessed with a long-time employer that was very generous and supported company paid life
— long education. But, I believe that candidates for mayor and council should not seek your vote because they were able to obtain an advanced education. Often, work experience and common sense outweigh school book education. Successful men — Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Ted Turner and Mark Zuckerberg — do not have college degrees. Neither does Oprah and other successful women. Too often BS means just that, or Ph.D means piled higher and deeper. Frequently, the high school educated person working
in the trenches, not behind a desk, has a better grasp of the problem and an innovative solution. Also, don’t be concerned because you don’t have a nice title. Titles are often like knighthood; bestowed in lieu of a pay raise and meaningless. People should seek a mayor and council members with experience that is transferable to the job being sought; people who do not shy away from tough decisions, people with demonstrated leadership ability.

Nixon shall live in infamy Richard Nixon no longer walks among us, having departed this earth a full two decades ago. But the ghost of the enigmatic figure who 40 years ago last month resigned the presidency — a position described by Franklin Roosevelt, still the man against which all subsequent presidents are measured, as “pre-eminently a place of moral leadership” — lingers among us, and he is a curious character indeed: Awkward in manner — but shrewd in judgment. Flawed in character — but peerless in vision. Much misunderstood — but possessed of a peerless understanding of human nature. Tarred with mendacity — but a political magus nonetheless. How soon we forget, and how smoothed by the years are the edges of a man Harry Truman — who in his own revisionist reverie is now regarded as a beacon of plain-spoken wisdom — once described as a “no-good, lying bastard,” a base scoundrel who, the 33rd president said, “can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever caught himself telling the truth, he’d lie just to keep his hand in.” This is not one of those cases where the truth is right there in the middle. Richard Nixon deserves to live on in opprobrium, for high political crimes and misdemeanors. The presence of the word “high” in Article 2, Section 4, of the Constitution — describing the basis for impeachment, which Nixon avoided only by resigning in disgrace — was not meant as synonym for “serious.” It meant crimes conducted by officials in “high” positions, an implicit indication that the nation’s founders expected top officeholders to hew to higher standards than those
common in others. In that case, and in that case only, the Framers agreed with Nixon that the president was above the law. For all those DAVID crimes — SHRIBMAN regarding the Columnist presidency as a perch to conduct a political range war, confusing the values of national security with the virtues of domestic life, besmirching the reputations of his rivals and on some occasions conducting clandestine operations against them — Nixon’s most enduring legacy is not what laws he broke but what customs of civic comportment he shattered. Nixon admired Bismarck, and in his shabby revival of the Iron Chancellor’s reign delighted in the machinations of big-power diplomacy and the confusion created when liberal initiatives sprang from conservative principles — sickness and disability insurance in Bismarck’s case, environmental and health care proposals in Nixon’s. But Nixon merely followed the Bismarck precept of listening for “the steps of God sounding through events” and then having the guile to “leap up and grab the hem of His garment.” His ideology was opportunism. Nixon’s defenders speak of his far-sighted policies, but in truth he only made the inevitable imminent. Someone else eventually would have recognized Red China, another president likely would have reached out to Soviet Russia. But only Nixon poisoned our civic life with a cynicism that
remains an American contaminant. Indeed, in the entire arc of American history — slavery, civil war, a Depression, two worldwide military conflicts, countless smaller ones — the word “amoral” appears more often in the American conversation in the Nixon years than in any other time of our national life.This is a measurable fact. The Nixon bench, moreover, had a rival roster, including some of the figures who comprised the congressional “Watergate Class” that produced a Democratic gain of 49 House seats in 1974. Or consider simply some of the young staffers of the House Judiciary Committee impeachment inquiry,also arguably brought into public life by Nixon: a future secretary of state (Hillary Rodham), White House counsel (Bernard Nussbaum), Massachusetts governor (William Weld) and Boston Red Sox president (Lawrence Lucchino). That’s without even considering the effect the Nixon experience had on some of the shimmery youth drawn into the presidential circle by duty and idealism, often against the ardent advice of friends and mentors whose distrust of Nixon dated to his Red-baiting and treacly “Checkers” speech that salvaged his position on the Republicans’ 1952 national ticket. “The qualities that kept some from joining Nixon’s administration became more visible, particularly after the revelation of the tapes,which showed both dishonesty and how the bile of resentment was corroding his best intentions and closing down his ability to realize his promise,” one of them, John Price, a Rhodes Scholar who succeeded Daniel
Patrick Moynihan as special assistant for urban affairs and later headed the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, told me. “Those still in place as his presidency collapsed were caught in the trap of a vicious survival fight and the collapse of their hopes to leave positive and lasting changes in government.” During Senate Watergate Committee hearings, Gordon Strachan, a Nixon aide, was asked what he might say to young people contemplating public service. “My advice,” he replied, “would be to stay away.” Nixon took the “credibility gap” created by Lyndon Johnson and rendered it enduring. With the retirement of LBJ, the nation, as A.J.P. Taylor said of German history in 1848, had “reached its turning point and failed to turn.” The suspicion and distrust of the Johnson years only deepened, and then became permanent. These days it is fashionable to measure Nixon by coffee spoons, a dollop of disgrace balanced by a splash of brilliance that somehow dilutes the dishonor.And that is what those who believe Nixon is “one of us” mean. But if we are a nation of cynics, Nixon stands indicted for making us that way. Thomas Jefferson said, “Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.” Nixon lived by an abridged version of that book. recent predecessors His (Franklin Roosevelt and John Kennedy come to mind) and his successors (Ronald Reagan and probably Bill Clinton,too) spruced up the American presidency. Richard Nixon tore away the greenery. For that, never forgive him. David M. Shribman is executive editor of the Post-Gazette.

Obituaries and State Battle over sex ignites feedback DEAR ABBY: I just finished reading the letter from “Pressured” (April 23), the wife whose husband keeps track of how often he and his wife have had sex and his determination to have sex 100 times per year. She was wondering if this is normal. I can tell her that my former husband thought we should have sex five times a week. He kept a calendar of when we had sex that also included who initiated it. I explained to him that I was more than willing to have frequent sex, but that he also had to be an attentive, caring husband. Our marriage counselor believed he was sufferDEAR ing from obsessivecompulsive d i s o r d e r, depression and was probably a diagnosable narcissist. Surprise, surprise! JEANNE proPHILLIPS He nounced our marriage counselor to be inept and divorced me. “Pressured” says she has a good marriage, so I assume that means she has a caring husband. I would advise her to do her best to enthusiastically and creatively meet his needs. Most men express love and feel loved by having sex. Scorekeeping could be his ineffective attempt at communicating his need to feel loved. — THE EX-MRS. DEAR EX: Thank you for writing. The saying “men are from Mars, women are from Venus” aptly applies to the responses I received from my readers about that letter. Read on: DEAR ABBY: Most guys may keep track of how often they’re having sex, although more likely it’s how long since the last time, or maybe how many times a week. But this guy is an idiot for letting his wife know that he’s tracking it, let alone that he has a goal of 100 times. Hopefully he’s not procreating, just “recreating” in bed. Abby, I thought you knew men better. “Fifty great versus 100 ‘so-so’ times” — are you kidding? Surely you know the saying, “Even bad sex is pretty good sex.” We guys will take it any way, any how, anytime. For us, it’s all good, all the time. — DAN IN IRVING, TEXAS DEAR ABBY: Unfortunately, my husband also likes to keep a running tab of our sexual frequency. It galls me. I saw a movie years ago in which a couple saw the same therapist and one tells the counselor, “We NEVER have sex! We only do it three times a week.” While the other says, “We have sex ALL THE TIME! We do it three times a week!” We must consider the other person and his or her needs, whether they’re emotional, sexual or physical. Emotional and physical are not necessarily the same. — DENISE IN MICHIGAN DEAR ABBY: For most men, sex is just a little less important than breathing and eating as essential to our existence. Men are getting fed up with being deprived. I have often considered extramarital sexual pursuits, and I feel I’d be justified in doing so. I know I’m not alone. Men have needs, and should have a right to share intimate relations with their wives. If not, we should be given the green light to fulfill our needs elsewhere. — JAMES IN KENTUCKY DEAR ABBY: I had to chuckle at “Pressured.” I have been married 20 years and have five children. I figure my husband and I are intimate an average of 260 times a year. Needless to say, my husband greets me with a smile every day, and our marriage is rock solid. — KNOWS THE SECRET IN UTAH

Woman found dead committed suicide PORTLAND (AP) — The Oregon state medical examiner’s office says an Oregon
woman missing for nearly two weeks before her body was found along a rural road committed suicide by asphyxiation. Newberg-Dundee police said Wednesday that toxicology results are not yet available for 38-year-old Jennifer Huston of Dundee. Police say they found an empty box of sleeping aids at the scene. Detectives also found a note addressed to the woman’s family.
275 households told to flee Oregon wildfire PORTLAND (AP) — When the smoke cleared from a new wildfire threatening the small Columbia River Gorge community of Rowena, area residents glimpsed an even less-welcome sight — a line of flames visible from the city of The Dalles, about six miles away. After the fire made a run along the river Wednesday evening, residents of 275 homes in Rowena were told to evacuate, fire spokesman Dave Wells said. Residents of nearly 90 homes in an outlying subdivi-
sion of The Dalles, a city of about 14,000, were told to be ready to leave if necessary, Wells said. Firefighters planned to work through the night protecting structures. No homes had burned as of Wednesday night, the spokesman said. Five helicopters dropped water on the blaze Wednesday as winds gusted to more than 30 mph,fire spokesman Justin de Ruyter said. A section of U.S. Highway 30 was closed in the area, but Interstate 84 remained open.
Rowena is about 75 miles east of Portland. The fire began in brush Tuesday night and quickly spread to about 200 acres of timber and scrub oak in rocky, steep terrain. “We’ve got a challenging fire on our hands,” de Ruyter said. Gov. John Kitzhaber invoked the state’s authority to mobilize local fire departments to protect buildings, and structural protection fire crews have come from three counties. The governor also toured
Oregon’s biggest wildfire, the Oregon Gulch fire, which burned six homes last week in the Siskiyou Mountains along the California border about 15 miles east of Ashland. It was 37 percent contained at 57 square miles. While in fire camp, he called on Congress to pay for more forest-thinning projects to reduce the risk of wildfires. In California, light rain and an infusion of personnel and equipment from as far away as San Diego allowed fire crews to continue gaining momentum Wednesday on a pair of
wildfires that exploded over the weekend in northern California and have burned more than 110 square miles, officials said. The two fires were burning about 7 miles apart in Shasta and Lassen counties. Eight homes, a historic post office and a restaurant were lost in the smaller of the two fires that started in Lassen National Forest and threatened Burney, a town of about 3,000 people in Shasta County. An evacuation advisory for Burney was lifted on Tuesday.

Remains of missing airmen accounted for BILLINGS, Mont.

The remains of 1st Lts.

Obama to sign veterans’ health care overhaul
WASHINGTON (AP) — Veterans are expected to have an easier time getting government-paid health care from local doctors under a bill that President Barack Obama is set to sign into law Thursday. The $16.3 billion measure also allows the Veterans Affairs Department to hire thousands of doctors, nurses and other health professionals at the VA’s nearly 1,000 hospitals and outpatient clinics nationwide. Under the new law,employment rules will be revised to make it easier to fire senior VA executives judged to be negligent or performing poorly. Obama is traveling to Fort Belvoir, Virginia, an Army base 20 miles south of Washington, to sign the bill. Congress approved the measure last week before taking a five-week recess — one of the few significant bills approved this year by both the House and the Senate. The legislation is a response to reports of veterans dying while awaiting appointments
to see VA doctors and of a widespread practice of employees covering up monthslong wait times for appointments. In some cases, employees received bonuses based on falsified records. “No veteran should have to wait to receive the benefits they have earned,” said White House spokesman Josh Earnest. The veterans bill, approved with strong bipartisan support, “will put in place reforms and needed additional resources to meet the high standard of service that our veterans have earned,” Earnest said. The bill devotes $10 billion in emergency spending over three years to pay private doctors and other health professionals to care for qualifying veterans who can’t get timely appointments at VA hospitals or clinics or who live more than 40 miles from one of them. It includes $5 billion for hiring more VA doctors, nurses and other medical staff and $1.3 billion to open 27 new
VA clinics across the country. The VA has taken “aggressive steps” in recent months to address systemic problems found in its health care system, Earnest said, adding that reform measures will continue and accelerate under new VA Secretary Robert McDonald. McDonald, a former Procter & Gamble CEO, was sworn in July 30 to lead the sprawling agency, which employs more than 310,000 people and provides health care for nearly 9 million enrolled veterans and disability compensation for nearly 4 million veterans. The VA announced last week that it planned to fire two supervisors and discipline four other employees in Colorado and Wyoming accused of falsifying health care data. Deputy Veterans Affairs Secretary Sloan Gibson said more VA employees will be disciplined as the agency tries to root out the causes of a scandal that he said has breached the trust between veterans and the agency created to serve them.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Bank of America is nearing a $16 billion to $17 billion settlement to resolve an investigation into its role in the sale of mortgage-backed securities before the 2008 financial crisis, a person directly familiar with the matter said Wednesday. The deal with the bank, which must still be finalized, would be the largest Justice Department settlement by far arising from the economic meltdown in which millions of Americans lost their homes to foreclosure. It would follow earlier multibillion-dollar agreements reached in the last year with Citigroup and JPMorgan
Chase & Co. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal had not yet been announced, cautioned that some details still needed to be worked out and that it was possible the agreement could fall apart. But the person said the two sides reached an agreement in principle following a conversation last week between Attorney General Eric Holder and Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan. The person said the tentative deal calls for the bank to pay roughly $9 billion in cash and for the remaining sum to go toward consumer relief.

spokesman A bank declined to comment. The Wall Street Journal first reported details of the settlement discussions on Wednesday. The deal would be the latest arising from the sale of toxic mortgage securities leading up to the recession. The Justice Department last year reached a $13 billion settlement with JPMorgan and in July announced a $7 billion settlement with Citigroup. Each of these deals is designed to offer some financial relief to homeowners, whose mortgages were bundled into securities by the banks in question and then sold to investors. The securities contained residential mortgages from borrowers who were unlikely to be able to repay their loans, yet were publicly promoted as relatively safe investments until the housing market collapsed and investors suffered billions of dollars in losses. The poor quality of the loans led to huge losses for investors and a slew of foreclosures, kicking off the recession that began in late 2007.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The use of an experimental drug to treat two Americans diagnosed with Ebola is raising ethical questions about who gets first access to unproven new therapies for the deadly disease. But some health experts fear debate over extremely limited doses will distract from tried-andtrue measures to curb the growing outbreak — things like more rapidly identifying and isolating the sick. The World Health Organization is convening a meeting of medical ethicists next week to examine what it calls “the responsible thing to do” about whatever supplies eventually may become available of a medicine that’s never been tested in people. At least one country involved in the outbreak is interested in the drug. Nigeria’s health minister, Onyenbuchi Chukwu, said at a news conference that he had asked the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about access. CDC Director Tom Frieden “conveyed there are virtually no doses available” but that basic supportive care can work, a CDC spokesman said Wednesday. President Barack Obama said Ebola is controllable and the U.S. and its allies are working to help overwhelmed public health systems in West Africa take the needed steps. Asked about the experimental drug, Obama said all the information isn’t in: “We’ve got to let the science guide us.”
Stowaway had treatment for past attempts SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The woman who flew from San Jose to Los Angeles without a boarding pass was a homeless loner who was briefly ordered into mental treatment earlier this year because of her past attempts to sneak aboard flights, officials said. Marilyn Jean Hartman — who tried to sneak aboard flights at least a half-dozen times in the past — made at least three attempts on Monday before she finally went past a screener who was busy checking a family’s documents at Mineta San Jose Airport, International according to law enforcement officials, who would speak only on condition of anonymity because the security breach is being investigated. Hartman, 62, then went the electronic through screening process before entering an airport terminal. Authorities said she made it through screening because she had no prohibited items on her or in her purse. Her boarding status was discovered once Southwest Airlines Flight 3785 landed in Los Angeles, the officials said.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A new census report says nearly 10 million Americans decided to identify as a different race or ethnicity in the early 2000s. The report, released on Wednesday, shows that 1 in 16 people who responded to the census in 2000 chose a different race or ethnicity on their forms in 2010. Using anonymous data, researchers found people switched between races, moved from multiracial to a single race or back or decided to add or drop Hispanic ethnicity from their census forms.

World Top Khmer Rouge leaders sentenced to life in prison PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) — Three and a half decades after the fall of Cambodia’s Khmer Rouge, a U.N.-backed tribunal on Thursday sentenced two top leaders of the former regime to life in prison for crimes against humanity during the country’s 1970s reign of terror that left close to 2 million people dead. The historic verdicts were announced against Khieu Samphan, the regime’s 83year-old former head of state, and Nuon Chea, its 88year-old chief ideologue — the only two surviving leaders of the regime left to stand trial.
3 killed, 5 wounded in Ukraine fighting DONETSK, Ukraine (AP) — Overnight shelling in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk killed three people and wounded five as government forces tighten their grip on the pro-Russian rebel stronghold, the city council said Thursday. In a statement on its website, the council said several residential buildings have been damaged by shelling in a neighborhood about 4 miles from the city’s central square. There was no mention of further aerial attacks, which were reported in the city on Wednesday. As the rebels struggle to push back Kiev’s forces, fears of Russian intervention have grown. Western leaders have accused Russia of massing troops on the border with Ukraine, although Russia has denied claims about a military buildup.
Architects make it big on world stage TOKYO (AP) — A new generation of Japanese architects believes the world has fallen out of love with the 20th century steel and concrete skyscraper.

Snowden can stay 3 more years in Russia MOSCOW (AP) — Former NSA systems analyst Edward Snowden, who is wanted by the U.S. for leaking details about once-secret surveillance programs, has been granted permission to stay in Russia for three more years, his lawyer said Thursday. Snowden last year was granted temporary asylum of one year in Russia, but that expired on Aug. 1. His lawyer, Analtoly Kucherena, was quoted by Russian news agencies as saying Snowden now has been granted residency for three more years, but that he had not been granted political asylum.
Hagel visits India to pursue projects NEW DELHI (AP) — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel arrived in India Thursday to press for a number of new weapons agreements, including a pilot plan for the two nations to jointly develop a next-generation anti-tank missile. The development initiative is part of a broader U.S. effort to improve what has often been a rocky relationship with India, the world’s largest democracy and a major player in Asia.
Hamas says Gaza war not over until demands are met GAZA CITY,Gaza City (AP) — A senior Hamas official told supporters at a Gaza City rally on Thursday that the war with Israel won’t be over until the group’s demands for a lifting of the Gaza blockade are met, insisting that its fighters would never give up their arms. “Our fingers are on the trigger and our rockets are trained at Tel Aviv,” the official, Mushir al-Masri said, as Egypt struggled to broker a lasting truce between Israel and Hamas, with an Egyptian official saying that Gaza-based militants were refusing to compromise. Cairo is mediating indirect talks between Israel and Hamas on extending a 72hour cease-fire that expires Friday morning. Hamas has demanded the lifting of an Israeli and Egyptian blockade imposed on the coastal territory after the Islamic militant group seized power in 2007. Israel has said the militants must disarm first, which al-Masri insisted was out of the question. “The war is not over yet. Our men are still in the field, manning forward positions,
our fingers are on the trigger, and our rockets are trained on Tel Aviv, and Lod and beyond,” he told several thousand supporters in the first mass rally since the fighting began on July 8. “It is out of the question that the weapons of the resistance should be on the negotiating table. They have not been put on the table, and God willing, they will never be.” Al-Masri insisted fighters are “in good shape” despite the nearly monthlong war and still had tunnels extending into Israel that could be used for attacks if Hamas’ demands are not met. The Egyptian security official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media, said the delegation’s Palestinian stance had hardened after the arrival in Cairo of Hamas and Islamic Jihad leaders from the Gaza Strip. He said Azzam al-Ahmad, the leader of the delegation and the representative of Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, had threatened to withdraw from the talks if the two mil-
itant groups do not show more “flexibility,” adding that the delegation, which was supposed to leave Cairo on Thursday, would stay through the weekend. delegates Palestinian could not immediately be reached for comment. The war stemmed from the killing of three Israeli teens in the West Bank in June. Israel blamed the killings on Hamas and launched a massive arrest campaign, rounding up hundreds of its members in the West Bank, as Hamas and other militants stepped up rocket fire from Gaza. On July 8 Israel launched a massive air assault on the territory and nine days later it sent in ground troops it said would target rocket launchers and cross-border tunnels built by Hamas for attacks inside Israel. Nearly 1,900 Palestinians have been killed in the fighting, three-quarters of them civilians, according to the United Nations. Israel says some 900 Palestinian militants were among the dead. Sixty-four Israeli soldiers and three civilians inside Israel have also been killed.
MOSCOW (AP) — Russia banned most food imports from the West on Thursday in retaliation for sanctions over Ukraine, an unexpectedly sweeping move that will cost farmers in North America, Europe and Australia billions of dollars but will also likely lead to empty shelves in Russian cities. The announcement shows that while President Vladimir Putin doesn’t appear ready to heed Russian nationalists’ calls to send troops into Ukraine, he is prepared to inflict significant damage on his own nation in an economic war with the West. The U.S. and the EU have accused Russia, which annexed Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula in March, of supplying arms and expertise to a pro-Moscow insurgency in eastern Ukraine, and have sanctioned individuals and companies in Russia in retaliation. Moscow denies supporting the rebels and accuses the West of blocking attempts at a political settlement by encouraging Kiev to use brutal force to crush the insurgency.
Militants seize largest dam BAGHDAD (AP) — Sunni militants from the Islamic State group on Thursday seized Iraq’s largest dam, placing them in control of enormous power and water resources and access to the river that runs through the heart of Baghdad. After a week of attempts, the radical Islamist gunmen successfully stormed the Mosul Dam and forced Kurdish forces to withdraw from the area, residents living near the dam told The Associated Press. They spoke anonymously for safety concerns. The Islamic State group posted a statement online Thursday, confirming that they had taken control of the dam.

People lounge on Waikiki's beaches in Honolulu on Wednesday. Hawaii residents prepared for what could be the first hurricane to hit the state in more than 20 years as weather officials said an approaching storm appears to have strengthened and will likely maintain its speed as it heads toward the islands.

“We changed one word,” Shoji said. “I think it really has the same meaning, it’s just a little bit stronger.” She stressed that this was, for her, more about compliance than any stance on medical marijuana. In fact, she says she is opposed to any ordinance that would have strictly singled-out medical marijuana dispensaries. “Our concern is that state and federal law are not consistent and we want to comply with both,” she said. “If it is not legal in (both) the state and federal law, then
why are we permitting it? (Likewise) if the federal said we could do it, but the state said we couldn’t, we wouldn’t do it.” Contacted by phone, Vaughan also said his no vote had more to do with information and philosophical outlook. He hoped for more study, particularly after Ashland voted last month to amend its code to allow the dispensaries in certain zones. “I wanted to look at it in more detail. It was mostly about information,” he said. But he added that he was also concerned with the perception that elected officials too often just defer to existing state and federal mandates. “In the Democratic institution, we are expected to represent the people and not the federal or state interests,”
he added. “If we defer only to that then nothing will ever change. How will those in federal and state government ever know how the people in the provinces feel if we don’t ever rock the boat?” As for the decision itself, which becomes official next month, the impacts appear to be fairly negligible. Particularly since there are existing medical marijuana dispensaries already in the Bay Area and further down the South Coast. That includes one in Bunker Hill, a Coos County district, located just outside of Coos Bay’s southern city limit. You can find a directory of all 133 approved dispensaries in the state by visiting Oregon.gov. It’s a list that includes existing sites in North Bend, Gold Beach and Brookings.

Dawson leaves big shoes to fill for SCRC
The Associated Press
Los Angeles Galaxy forward Landon Donovan, right, is greeted by Seattle Sounders midfielder Osvaldo Alonso, left, after Donovan scored the go-ahead goal against Bayern Munich in the second half of the MLS All-Star match Wednesday.
MLS All-Stars beat German club PORTLAND (AP) — Landon Donovan celebrated the winning goal in his 14th All-Star game by grasping the MLS badge on his jersey before he was swarmed by his teammates. Take that, Bayern Munich. Donovan dribbled the ball at the top of the box before blasting it past German World Cup goalkeeper Manuel Neuer in the 70th minute, giving the MLS All-Stars a 2-1 victory over the Bundesliga champions on Wednesday night. “I’m proud to be a part of this league,” Donovan said. “For many years, those of us that were in this league were sort of looked down upon for staying here and playing here. “This was a big moment for our league. And we understand the game doesn’t count for anything. We know Bayern are in their preseason and their best players didn’t play. But they were still competitive and those guys wanted to win just like we did.” Bayern’s roster included seven members of the World Cup-winning German national team, but most of them remained on the bench until about the final 10 minutes. Following the match, Bayern coach Pep Guardiola wouldn’t shake All-Star coach Caleb Porter’s hand. There was speculation that Guardiola was upset about the aggressive play in what was a preseason exhibition for his team, but he refused to talk about it.
Bayern’s manager said he didn’t see Porter. “We certainly didn’t mean anything negative,” Porter said. “Our players have nothing but the utmost respect for Bayern.” While the moment was unfortunate, it didn’t dull the celebration in the All-Star locker room. Loud music played and Portland AllStar Diego Valeri collected autographs from his teammates. The MLS team also included several players from the U.S. World Cup squad that advanced out of the group stage in Brazil, including Seattle’s Clint Dempsey and Toronto’s Michael Bradley. Donovan, the L.A. Galaxy striker who was left off the U.S. World Cup team, got a standing ovation from the crowd when he was subbed out following his goal. It was his sixth All-Star goal. Bradley Wright-Philips of the New York Red Bulls tied it for the All-Stars early in the second half. Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring for Bayern early in the first half. The event caps a preseason tour for Bayern Munich, which hadn’t visited the United States in a decade. The team beat Chivas Guadalajara 1-0 last Thursday night at Red Bull Arena in New Jersey. The group of Bayern players from Germany’s World Cup-winning team flew into Portland on Wednesday morning, and whisked
to a meet-and-greet at adidas’ North American headquarters before the match. Mario Goetze, who scored the extra-time winner in the final match against Argentina in Brazil, was among the national team players making the overnight stop in Portland. “It feels like we’re only going to be here for 12 hours so we’re kind of in and out, but it’s exciting,” Goetze said. Guardiola said beforehand that he was only playing his World Cup players for some 15 minutes apiece, and he was true to his word. None of them started on Wednesday night. Bayern midfielder Julian Green, who played for the United States in the World Cup, was also listed as a reserve but he was the first Bayern sub to enter the game in the 36th minute. Fans at Providence Park chanted “USA! USA!” Green was born in Florida but grew up in Germany and has dual citizenship. Just 19, he scored against Belgium in the World Cup, becoming the youngest American with a goal in soccer’s premier event. Real Salt Lake goalkeeper Nick Rimando leaped with his arms outstretched but couldn’t stop Lewandowski’s goal for Bayern in the opening minutes. Lewandowski joined Bayern on a free transfer from league rival Borussia Dortmund last month.
Tiger struggles early in PGA Championship LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Tiger Woods arrived at Valhalla on Thursday with far less fanfare, and a lot more attention. The PGA Championship got underway when club pro Brian Norman hit the opening tee shot down the middle. Woods was in the feature group in the morning with Phil Mickelson and Padraig Harrington. It’s rare when Woods and Mickelson are in the same group at a major, though the hype was different this time. Woods withdrew from a World Golf Championship just four days ago with a back injury. He returned on Wednesday — with live television showing Woods parking his car and tying his golf shoes — and proclaimed he was fit. Early on, his game still looked rusty. Starting on the back side, Woods drove his opening shot into the rough and settled for par on the par-5 10th. He was errant again at the par-3 11th, where he missed the green to the right off the tee and failed to sink a 14-footer to save par. More of the same at the par-3 14th, only this time Woods missed the green badly to the right. He chipped on and watched a 15-footer roll past the hole, leaving him with another bogey. Tiger was 3-over through 14 holes, while Mickelson was even and Harrington was 2-over. The leaders midway through

Tiger Woods hits a chip on the 11th hole during the first round of the PGA Championship today. the morning were Kevin Chappell and Edoado Molinari, who both got to 5-under. The group at 3-under included Brendon Todd, Joost Luiten, Rickie Fowler, Lee Westwood, Mikko Ilonen and Marc Leishman. This is a big week for Todd, who was 12th in the Ryder Cup standings and looking to push his way into an automatic spot at the final qualifying event. The top nine after Sunday will make the team, before captain Tom Watson fills out his roster with three wildcard picks. Rory McIlroy, who had an afternoon tee time, is the heavy favorite at Valhalla, coming off wins at the British Open and at Firestone.
One player who won’t be winning: Matt Kuchar, who withdrew just before teeing off because of back spasms. John Huh took Kuchar’s place and joined the threesome with Louis Oosthuizen and Justin Rose. While much of the focus was on Woods and McIlroy, the fan favorite was 53-year-old Kenny Perry. He got a special invitation to play in the PGA Championship because, well, this is home. “I’m just excited for the opportunity to go out the back door one more time, as they say,” said Perry, who was raised and still lives in Franklin, Kentucky. “One more time.” Valhalla is a place where Perry
has experienced enormous heartache (losing a playoff to Mark Brooks at the 1996 PGA Championship) and exhilarating joy (he was part of the last U.S.team to win the Ryder Cup in 2008). These days, it feels like a little bit of heaven. “Being a Kentuckian,” he said, “it made me pretty proud.” Perry’s career on the PGA Tour was filled with plenty of accomplishments, including 14 victories and two Ryder Cup appearances. But he let two major titles slip through his fingers, including the 2009 Masters when he had a twostroke lead with two holes to play. At 48, he would’ve been the oldest player ever to claim a green jacket, but he bogeyed the 17th and 18th holes, then made another in the playoff and lost to Angel Cabrera. But the one that really stings is that PGA Championship nearly two decades ago. Perry went to the 72nd hole with a two-stroke lead. All he needed was a par on the secondeasiest hole on the course. He made bogey. It took a while to get over that one. “I always think about the 18th hole,” Perry said. “It’s a par-5 that’s very gettable and you can make eagle on it. That’s pretty disappointing to have a hole where I struggle to make par on it, much less make an easy birdie.”
Stuntzner wins title at world championships THE WORLD Local swimmer Denise Stuntzner won a world title in one of her events at the swimming World Masters Championships in Canada on Wednesday. Stuntzner won the 100-meter butterfly in the 50-54 age group with a blazing start for the first 50 meters, holding on for victory in 1 minute, 12.75 seconds. “I’d been frustrated with my freestyle swims because I went out so slow, so this time I made sure
that didn’t happen,” Stuntzner said of her 33.3-second first half of the race, which was faster than she hoped. “At 80 meters, all my muscles suddenly locked up — arms and legs. I wasn’t sure how I was going to get to the wall. “Panic set in and everything was on auto pilot,” she said, crediting the win to “sheer willpower and the hand of God.” Stuntzner said she hurt so badly after the race that she needed help out of the pool. But that was a sweet feeling given that it
was the reward for winning. “It was awesome,” she said. Both Stuntzner and Bay Area training partner Jayna Tomac, who is in the 40-44 age group, have had a number of high finishes during the world meet in Montreal. Stuntzner was fourth overall, and fourth from the United States, in the 200 freestyle in 2:28.72 and 10th overall, sixth among Americans, in the 100 freestyle in 1:06.47. Tomac’s best finish so far has
been fourth, and top American, in the 800 freestyle in her first race of the meet, which she completed in 10:15.66. Tomac also was sixth in the 100 breaststroke (second among Americans) in 1:19.62, ninth (second from the United States) in the 200 individual medley in 2:39.46 and ninth (third among Americans) in the 50 breaststroke in 35.92. The local swimmers will complete their run in the meet Saturday.
The Circle the Bay road race has long been called the signature event of the South Coast Running Club. The club holds several races each year and has members up and down the South Coast. But soon, it won’t have its leader. Pete Dawson, who has been the club president for 19 years, has decided to retire from that role at the end of the month. For the club members, it’s a huge loss, one that is hard to understate. Some people only know of Pete as the person who serves as director for a few races each year. But many of us see him as much more. Though there have been different editors over the years, he has made sure the club newsletter continued. Pete has worked with all the race directors, making sure they have the equipment they need to set up the courses and the ribbons for SPORTS the runs that include those for age-group winners. He has kept track of all the financial records for the club, which donates proceeds from several of its runs JOHN to various causes. G UNTHER For the newspaper, he has made sure I got advance notice for the various races and then been the one who reported the results to me for most of them. Pete announced a few months ago that he was stepping down as running president — 10 years after he announced that he was stepping aside as race director of Circle the Bay. Obviously, the race has continued, with a few people filling the role of race director — either in a solo effort or as part of a team. And on Saturday, the future of the running club was discussed by a number of us, both before and after the race. The consensus among the people I talked with was that Pete’s shoes are too big for one person to fill, since all of us are involved in numerous other activities. Rather, likely the role of running club president will become a team effort, at least in the near future. Since I already need the race results for the paper, I said I would be willing to handle coordinating them like Pete has in the past. Ideally, somebody else will take on the job of making sure the newsletter continues. And another will take charge of making sure the equipment is stored properly in the club’s storage facility. Fortunately, a group of dedicated folks have held down the duties as directors of the club’s various runs — often with a lot of help from Pete. We can count on Tom Bedell for the year’s first event, the Lighthouse Run in Bandon, as well as Tim Wall (Run of Two Cities), Joe Hallett (Salmon Creek Run), Rex Miller and his family (Mayor’s Firecracker Run and Mac’s Run), Anthony and Kay Collins (Kentuck Run and Circle the Bay), Patrick Myers and Lawrence Cheal (Sunset Bay Trail Run), Roy Mollier (Scotty Brown Memorial Run), Eli Thompson-Poore (See Jane Run), Tim and Barb Young (Turkey Trot) and Amelia and Trevor Edd (Christmas Lights Run). They’ve coordinated those events for years (sorry if I forgot anybody). Best of all, Pete plans to continue in his role as race director or codirector of the Prediction Run (one of my favorite races), the Roseburg to Coos Bay Relay (the most difficult to plan each year because of its logistics) and Jennifer’s Catching Slough Classic (which includes the South Coast Half Marathon). Pete has become a good friend for many of us over the past two decades. We appreciated his friendly smile and encouragement as we trudged along during the races he directed, and returned the favor as he completed most of the other races himself. We mourned with him when his beloved wife, Carole, died last November. We applauded him for how well he coordinated so many different club activities. And I, for one, am happy that he is lightening his volunteer workload. He’s given us a good model for how to make things run smoothly. Now it’s our turn to carry the torch.

Seattle’s Austin Jackson dives safely back to first base on a pickoff attempt during the Mariners’ win over Atlanta on Wednesday.
Seattle extends Braves’ slump THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SEATTLE — The Seattle Mariners handed Atlanta its eighth straight loss, with Dustin Ackley and Logan Morrison hitting home runs in the third inning to beat the Braves 7-3 Wednesday. The Braves were swept at Dodger Stadium and San Diego before losing two at Safeco Field. Ackley led off the third with a home MLB run, and Morrison Recap added a three-run shot off Julio Teheran (10-8) for a 5-3 lead. Robinson Cano doubled twice and scored two runs for Seattle. Chris Young (10-6) allowed three runs in five innings. He struck out six and reached double-digit wins for the first time since 2006. Five relievers combined to throw four innings of scoreless relief, allowing just two hits. Teheran was wildly inconsistent in six innings, yielding six runs in three frames, but allowing just one runner in the other innings. Padres 5, Twins 4, 10 innings: Center fielder Alexi Amarista made a game-saving catch in the bottom of the ninth inning, and Seth Smith followed with a solo homer in the 10th to lift San Diego over Minnesota. Amarista ran backward on a dead sprint and laid out for a brilliant diving catch of a drive off the bat of Eduardo Escobar with two on and two outs to keep the game tied. Smith hit a 400-foot shot off Anthony Swarzak (2-1) into the rightfield stands for his 12th homer. Reds 8, Indians 3: Mat Latos (4-3) pitched shutout ball into the eighth inning and chipped in with a hit as Cincinnati opened a seven-game homestand with a win over Cleveland. Zack Cozart hit a three-run homer off the left-field foul pole, and Kristopher Negron added a two-run shot as the Reds won for the third time in four games. Red Sox 2, Cardinals 1: Xander Bogaerts drove in two runs, including a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the ninth inning, as Boston beat St. Louis. The matchup of Shelby Miller and Joe Kelly, former teammates who were each other’s best man at their weddings, was a high quality draw that brought out their best. Each allowed a run in seven innings. Royals 4, Diamondbacks 3: Mike
Moustakas homered and drove in four runs, Yordano Ventura (9-8) pitched six solid innings, and Kansas City edged Arizona to win its fifth straight series. Dodgers 2, Angels 1: Dan Haren (9-9) pitched three-hit ball into the eighth inning, and Matt Kemp homered in the Los Angeles Dodgers’ victory over the Los Angeles Angels. Andre Ethier had an RBI double in the second inning as the Freeway Series moved down the I-5 to Anaheim after the clubs split the first two games in Chavez Ravine.
AMERICAN LEAGUE Rangers 3, White Sox 1: Adam Rosales homered twice in a game for the first time in his career and Nick Tepesch pitched scoreless ball into the sixth inning, leading Texas over Chris Sale and the Chicago White Sox. The Rangers, who began the day with baseball’s worst record, have won consecutive games for the first time since June 27-28. They routed the White Sox 16-0 on Tuesday. Rosales hit a two-run homer in the second and added a solo shot in the seventh. He entered with only one homer this season. Rays 7, Athletics 3: Kevin Kiermaier hit a two-run homer to help Jeremy Hellickson end a six-start winless stretch for his first victory in 11 months, and Tampa Bay avoided a sweep against Oakland. Hellickson (1-1) allowed two hits and one run in seven innings, struck out three and walked none. He hadn’t reached five innings in any of his previous three starts this year or in five outings dating to the end of the 2013 season. Hellickson returned late last month following right elbow surgery in January. The Rays handed reigning AL Pitcher of the Month Sonny Gray (12-5) his second straight defeat following a 50 July in which he had a 1.03 ERA. Yankees 5, Tigers 1: Chris Capuano outpitched Justin Verlander, and Brian McCann and Chase Headley homered to send the New York Yankees past Detroit. The Yankees improved to 2-1 in these three straight games started for Detroit by AL Cy Young Award winners. New York edged Max Scherzer on Monday, then David Price got a no-decision Tuesday in a game the Tigers won in the 12th. Capuano gave up an unearned run and five hits in 6 2-3 innings, striking
out eight and walking one. Adam Warren (2-5) got four outs for the win. Verlander (10-10) allowed two runs and five hits in seven innings, walking one and fanning five. Blue Jays 5, Orioles 1: Drew Hutchison (8-9) came within one out of his second career complete game, Jose Bautista homered and drove in three runs, and Toronto topped Baltimore to snap a four-game losing streak.
NATIONAL LEAGUE Phillies 10, Astros 3: Chase Utley hit a three-run homer, and Ben Revere had four hits, including a triple, to lead Philadelphia over Houston. Ryan Howard had two hits and two RBIs with a double for Philadelphia, which had scored just two runs in 35 2/3 innings entering Wednesday. Pirates 7, Marlins 3: Josh Harrison had three hits to extend his hot streak, and Jeff Locke (3-3) overcame a shaky start to pitch seven innings as Pittsburgh beat Miami. Harrison hit a double and scored twice. He is 20 for 44 during a 10-game hitting streak, with six doubles, one triple and five home runs. Nationals 7, Mets 1: Doug Fister (11-3) took a five-hit shutout into the eighth inning, Adam LaRoche homered twice and Danny Espinosa also connected as Washington beat the New York Mets. LaRoche hit a two-run drive in the first inning and a solo shot in the eighth, his 23rd career multihomer game. Espinosa went deep with two on in the sixth, and Anthony Rendon hit two doubles to help NL East-leading Washington increase its lead over sputtering Atlanta to four games. Giants 7, Brewers 4: Michael Morse and Pablo Sandoval each drove in three runs to lead San Francisco over Milwaukee. Ryan Vogelsong (7-8) gave up one run on seven hits in six innings for the Giants to win consecutive starts for the first time since May. On Friday, the right-hander allowed two hits in a complete game against the Mets. Rockies 13, Cubs 4: Carlos Gonzalez homered, doubled and singled in his return to the lineup, and Colorado snapped a five-game losing streak by beating the Chicago Cubs. Corey Dickerson had four hits, drove in three and was a homer shy of the cycle. Mike McKenry also homered for Colorado.

Oden faces assault charge in Indiana THE ASSOCIATED PRESS — INDIANAPOLIS Former No. 1 NBA draft pick Greg Oden has been arrested in Indianapolis on battery charges alleging that he punched a woman in the face. Police in the suburban community of Lawrence say the 26-yearold was arrested early Thursday on two preliminary counts of misdemeanor battery and remains jailed. A police report says officers called to a home found a woman on a sofa with a bloody face. Oden allegedly told officers “things got out of control” during an argument with his ex-girlfriend and he punched her in the face as others tried to hold him back. The 7-foot Oden was a star at Lawrence North High School in Indianapolis and played a season at Ohio State before the Portland Trail Blazers made him the NBA’s top 2007 draft pick.

Knicks, Sacramento swap four players NEW YORK — The New York Knicks acquired forwards Quincy Acy and Travis Outlaw from the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday for guard Wayne Ellington and forward Jeremy Tyler. Also, New York reduced the protection on a 2016 second-round draft pick it sent to Portland in 2012 and the Kings later acquired from the Trail Blazers. The 6-foot-9 Outlaw has career averages of 8.5 points and 3.2 rebounds in 622 games in 11 seasons with Portland, the Los Angeles Clippers, New Jersey and Sacramento. Last season for the Kings, he averaged 5.4 points and 2.7 rebounds in 63 games. The 6-7 Acy averaged 3.1 points and 3.2 rebounds in 92 games in two seasons with Toronto and Sacramento. Last season, he averaged 2.7 points and 3.4 rebounds in 63 games for the Raptors and Kings. Ellington has played five NBA seasons with Minnesota, Memphis, Cleveland and Dallas, averaging 6.4 points in 312 games. The 6-4 guard was acquired by the Knicks from Dallas on June 25. Tyler has averaged 3.6
points and 2.6 rebounds in 104 games with Golden State, Atlanta and New York. The 6-10 forward averaged 3.6 points and 2.7 rebounds in 41 games for the Knicks last season.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL Washington QB makes apology to team SEATTLE — Washington quarterback Cyler Miles apologized Wednesday for his involvement in an offfield incident after the Super Bowl that led to his suspension for the Huskies’ season opener at Hawaii. Miles was investigated for his role in a Super Bowl night fight that included former teammate Damore’ea Stringfellow, who decided to transfer from the program. Miles was suspended for spring practice. He was reinstated to the team after not being charged by prosecutors. Miles apologized reading a prepared statement after practice, then said the suspension for the opener by coach Chris Petersen was a fair punishment. “I thought it was fair. Like I said, that’s really out of my control. That’s coach Pete’s decision,” Miles said. “But I thought it was a fair consequence by him, and regardless of what it was, I’ve got to take it anyway. I didn’t have a problem with it.” Miles was the presumptive starter going into 2014 after appearing in eight games with one start last season, throwing for 418 yards and four touchdowns and running for another 200 yards. While he may eventually be the best fit for the offense Petersen wants to run, he’s essentially in last place in the competition to be the starter. Either redshirt freshman Troy Williams or sophomore Jeff Lindquist will likely be the starter to open the season on Aug. 30.

Schimmel returns to Northwest
Defensive star Mourning earns place in Hall
BY ANNE M. PETERSON The Associated Press
Shoni Schimmel’s distinctive style of play first took shape on the Umatilla Indian Reservation in northeast Oregon. The 22-year-old guard for the Atlanta Dream describes her version of Rez Ball, as it’s known, like this: Go hard, trust instincts and always play with heart. Schimmel rode Rez Ball all the way from a stellar prep career in Portland to Louisville and the NCAA title game her junior year, and finally to the WNBA. Today, the Dream visit the Seattle Storm, marking Schimmel’s first game in the Pacific Northwest as a pro. The game is a sellout. Though she’s been back to the West Coast before — when she was with the Cardinals — she said Thursday’s game is special to her. The Storm are planning to honor Schimmel before the game. “It’s pretty awesome. I know that Seattle is sold out, and a lot of people I know are interested because it is like a home game for me,” she said. “I have a lot of friends and family coming out.” Just a rookie, the 5-foot-9 Schimmel is arguably the WNBA’s fastest rising star. Known as Showtime Shoni, her jersey is the league’s best seller. Last month, Schimmel scored a record 29 points and had eight assists as the Eastern Conference pulled out a 125-124 overtime victory over the West in her first WNBA All-Star Game. Schimmel’s fans at the game — including her dad — wore T-shirts proclaiming “Rez Ball Rules.” Schimmel started the All-Star game even though she’d started only twice for the Dream this season. Not being a starter is the most frustrating thing about her rookie year, but she understands. “In college I was the go-to player, and in high school I was the go-to. So for that to happen this year it’s a little different,” she said. “At the same time I look forward to going out there and giving whatever I can to my team and helping us win.” Schimmel’s story is well known in the Pacific Northwest. She first played basketball on a co-ed team at age 4 in a spring break tournament across the
The Associated Press
Atlanta Dream guard Shoni Schimmel shoots the ball against Minnesota Lynx forward Maya Moore on Tuesday. street from her home. She was hooked. Her family moved to Portland so Schimmel — and her sister, Jude — would have a better chance to develop their talent. Schimmel starred at Franklin High School and was named a Women’s Basketball Coaches Association All-American. That led to Louisville, where Schimmel scored 2,174 points and had 600 assists over the course of her career. Her points are second only to Dream teammate Angel McCoughtry’s 2,779 with the Cardinals. She also made 387 3-pointers, ranking her fifth alltime among NCAA Division I players. The Dream selected Schimmel with the eighth pick in the WNBA draft. Overall as a rookie, she’s averaging seven points and 3.5 assists in 19.7 minutes per game. The Dream are 24-4 and sit atop the Eastern Conference. The team has already clinched its sixth straight playoff berth.
Despite coming off the bench, Schimmel’s Native American fans turn out to watch her play all across the country. Last week, the Muscogee Creek Nation coordinated a celebration prior to the Dream’s game against the Tulsa Shock that featured dancers from nearly all of Oklahoma’s tribes. Angel Goodrich, a second-year guard for the Shock, is from the Cherokee Nation. Last month, the Minnesota Lynx partnered with the Prairie Island Indian Community to host Native American Night when the Dream visited. Seattle is about a four-hour drive from the Umatilla Reservation. ‘’I take a lot of pride in it,” Schimmel said. “Just happening to have the following I have by being Native American, it’s pretty awesome to see all the Native Americans come out to games like in Phoenix or Minnesota. They even travel to Atlanta and watch games. It’s really awesome to see that.”
MIAMI (AP) — It was arguably the signature moment of Alonzo Mourning ’s career. He blocked a shot in the final minutes of Game 6 of the 2006 NBA Finals, then wriggled on the floor in what appeared to be celebration for a few seconds. Turns out, it was anger. Mourning was unimpressed by his chase-down block of Dallas’ Jason Terry with 8:55 left in the game where the Miami Heat would clinch their first NBA title. Instead, his memorable airpunching, arms-flailing reaction was borne from how Heat teammate Gary Payton had been part of a turnover seconds earlier and then argued with a referee at such a critical moment in the game. His fire was on full display in that moment. And it was that fire that led him to the Basketball Hall of Fame “So I had to sprint back to try to cover his butt for making that mistake, and I was mad,” Mourning said. “Then I got up and I was like, ‘Gary, what are you doing, man?’ Oh, I was mad. Maybe like two people really know why I was acting that way. The thing is, I was cursing Gary out. That’s what happened.” After a career where he averaged 17.1 points, 8.5 rebounds and 2.8 blocked shots, the 6-foot-10 Mourning will be part of the class enshrined in Springfield, Massachusetts on Friday night, when the surest bet in sports will be that his speech will exceed the 10-minute recommendation he was given for his remarks. “I think I deserve it,” Mourning said, laughing. Few would disagree.
He was a seven-time AllStar, is one of only eight players to win the defensive player of the year award at least twice, an Olympic gold medalist and has already had his No. 33 jersey retired by the Heat in a star-studded ceremony that went way longer than planned, slightly raising the ire of an Orlando Magic team that wasn’t planning on a never-ending halftime that night in 2009. “He had to be the first one to have his jersey retired by this franchise,” Heat President Pat Riley said. “He earned that, many times over.” But Mourning’s story is more about the journey than any statistic or award. He was raised by a foster mother who took him and 48 other kids into her home. From there, Mourning became a star at Georgetown, then an NBA icon who couldn’t even be derailed by a kidney disease that necessitated a transplant while still in the prime of his career, and finally a champion with the Heat. “You don’t think about going to the Hall of Fame. It’s your reward,” Mourning said. “This was the last thing on my mind. I had an amazing career. The journey was spectacular for me, personally. If no one else saw it that way, then so be it.” Mourning, 44, will be presented by John Thompson, his coach at Georgetown, and Riley, his coach with the Heat. Thompson and Riley are two of the people who Mourning credits most for making him what he is. The other is Fannie Threet, the foster mother who died last year at the age of 98 and the person who Mourning speaks with more reverence for than anyone else.

NCAA board will vote on big five autonomy BY RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press
The NCAA board of directors will vote today on a proposal that would give the five wealthiest college football conferences the ability to make rules and pass legislation without the approval of the rest of Division I schools. The autonomy proposal is expected to pass. Here’s what you need to know about it: Q: What do the big conferences want? A: The 65 schools in Atlantic Coast Conference, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and Southeastern Conference would get the ability to pass permissive legislation to “enhance the well-being of student-athletes.” They want to be allowed to spend their growing revenues on things such as scholarships that cover the full cost of attending college beyond tuition, room and board and books. Those conferences also want to invest more in long-term health care and continuing education and ensure
that athletes retain scholarships for four years. Schools in the other 27 Division I conferences can try to do some of those things if they want, but they will not be required to. “I think we’ve gotten to a place where we just believe there was a need for us to perhaps be a little less egalitarian, a little less magnanimous about the 350 schools and spend a little time worrying about the most severe issues that are troubling our programs among the 65,” Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby said Wednesday during forum in New York host by the conference. Q: Why do those conferences need autonomy to do that? A: In the past, schools in conferences that don’t have the billions of dollars in TV revenues that the socalled Big Five have stood in the way of the NCAA passing legislation that would have provided some of those extra benefits to athletes. Specifically, in 2011 a proposal that would have allowed schools to give athletes a $2,000 stipend to cover cost of attendance was overridden
by about half of the 355 Division I schools. Q: Will other conferences try to do what the Big Five want to do? A: The leaders of the other five conferences that play at the highest level of college football, FBS, have all said their members are prepared to do their best to provide the same additional benefits to student-athletes. Some schools, such as those in the American Athletic Conference or Mountain West, are probably better situated to spend more on athletes than others, such as those in the Sun Belt or MidAmerican Conference. But they’ll try. “Will there be greater additional costs? More than likely,” Sun Belt Commissioner Benson said at the league’s football media day last month. “And yes, there will be challenges, but Sun Belt universities have invested too much not to be part of major college football in the future.” There is concern that schools trying to keep up with the Big Five in revenue sports such as football
and men’s basketball might not have enough money to fund nonrevenue Olympic sports. Q: Who is against it? A: There are some in those other 22 conferences who are concerned that giving the Big Five the ability to make their own rules will increase the competitive advantage those schools already have. The most vocal critic has been Boise State President Bob Kustra, who believes autonomy is the Big Five’s attempt to keep schools such as his from competing on the highest level. The Broncos, who play in the MWC, have been a football power but have often been shut out of the biggest games, with the biggest payouts. “The NCAA cannot fall prey to phony arguments about student welfare when the real goal of some of these so-called reformers is create a plutocracy,” Kustra wrote in statement released to the media in May, “that serves no useful purpose in American higher education.” Q: Why is this likely to pass? A: Because the Big Five generate millions in revenue for all NCAA
members, and while the leaders of those conferences have repeatedly said they don’t want to break away from the rest of Division I, they have also made clear it is an option. So they’ll get what they want. It also helps relieve some of the pressure to reform an outdated amateur sports model, brought in part by a lawsuit that claims athletes deserve revenue from the use of their names and likenesses and a unionization effort from Northwestern football players. Q: When would it go into effect? A: The formal start would be in January 2015, at the NCAA convention. Q: Will fans notice a difference? A: Not really. Maybe in the longterm some FBS schools will decide it’s too expensive to compete at that level and drop down to FCS. And it could be a step toward full separation between the Big Five and the rest of college athletics, but there is nothing to suggest that is imminent. For now, it will look like business as usual.
Wallace inducted to Hall of Fame DETROIT (AP) — Former NASCAR driver Rusty Wallace was one of seven men inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America on Wednesday. “I think my years in NASCAR were some of the best years NASCAR ever had,” Wallace said. “Places were mobbed out and sold out and I was winning a lot of races. People say, ‘You drove at a time when NASCAR was at its peak.”’ Wallace made his debut on the top circuit in 1980 in a Roger Penske-owned car and joined the series full-time in 1984. His first victories came in 1986 with Raymond Beadle’s Blue Max Racing team and he won the 1989 Sprint Cup championship after holding off Dale Earnhardt. Wallace moved to Penske’s team in 1991 and ran the final 15 years of his career for the car owner, who presented him for induction Wednesday. “He’s been an incredible mentor,” Wallace said. “I never had any car dealerships and I ran it by him for some advice and now I have seven of them,” Wallace finished his career with 55 wins — 37 with Penske — and was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2013. Five of those victories came at Michigan International Speedway, once owned by Penske. His former car owner was happy to introduce Wallace on Wednesday. “What he’s done for this sport and our team, we
wouldn’t have what we have today without him,” Penske said. “He was one of the first drivers to really understand what it meant to keep a sponsor. Miller got in back then and is still involved today. He was a driver, a technician, a marketer and a good friend.” Arie Luyendyk, who began racing on the IndyCar circuit in 1985 and won the Indianapolis 500 in 1990 and ‘97, also was inducted. The Dutch-born driver’s winning average speed of 187.433 in his first Indy victory — at a time when Penske entries dominated at Indy — stood as a race record until 2013. Like Wallace, he also looks back on his career as a golden time of the sport. “What I liked about the older days at Indy was you had different cars and different engines and not all the tight and close racing you see today,” he said. “It was about having the best tire, car, engine - a lot of things had to come together. “It’s not like today where everyone has the same car.” Drag racer and car owner Beadle had a heart attack last month in Texas. His son, Ryan, accepted the honor on his behalf. The remaining members of the class — Ole Bardahl, founder of the Bardahl Oil Company that has sponsored entries in a variety of motorsports; IMSA founder John Bishop; three-time American Motorcyclist Association grand national champion Ricky Graham; and NASCAR pioneer Marshall Teague — are dead.

National Guard plans to end sponsorships CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The National Guard said Wednesday it will end its sponsorship of NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. and IndyCar’s Graham Rahal, but it is not clear when that goes into effect. Hendrick Motorsports said in a statement it has a contract through 2015. “We have not been approached by the guard about potential changes and plan to honor our current agreement,” the team said. Bobby Rahal, co-owner of Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, said in a statement he learned of the guard’s decision on Wednesday. He called it disappointing news “given the significant incremental brand exposure we have worked to produce for the National Guard in our first season together, including various off-track marketing and advertising programs focused on supporting the mission set forth.” The guard said in a statement posted on its web site it spent $32 million on its NASCAR sponsorship and $12 million on its IndyCar sponsorship this year, and noted that “sports sponsorships have played an important role in helping the guard build strong brand awareness.” But, the guard state-

BRIDGE Michelangelo said, “The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short, but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark.” At the bridge table, though, sometimes you must decide between setting your sights high or low. How does that apply to this deal? South is in three no-trump and West leads a fourth-highest spade six. What happens after that? South starts with seven top tricks: one spade (given the first trick), three
hearts, two diamonds and one club. He hopes that the club finesse is working. But even if it loses, West might not find the right defense. South takes East’s spade jack with his king, leads a heart to dummy’s king, and runs the club 10. It loses, but West is now in a quandary. Who has the spade queen? East would have played the jack at trick one with either only the jack or the queen-jack. And South would have won with his king, whether or not he also had the queen. If South still has the spade queen and another spade, West needs to shift to a diamond in the hope that his partner can win with the ace and return a spade through South. But if East has the spade queen, that suit can be run now. Should West play his partner for a queen or an ace? Do not be greedy; set your sights low. West should cash the spade ace. Perhaps South started with king-queen-doubleton. Here, though, East should throw (unblock) his queen under partner’s ace. By applying the Rule of Eleven at trick one (11 - 6 = 5), East should know that South started with only one spade higher than the six, the king he has already played.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 2014 If you remain positive, you’ll discover that the challenges you face are part of a learning process to help you move forward. Your full effort will be required to get you where you want to go. Don’t hold back when you should be doing all you can to make things happen. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Consider your actions before putting the blame elsewhere. You are in greater control of the outcome than you realize. If you haven’t lived up to your promises, complaints will be forthcoming. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Participate in events that bring you into contact with creative people. Your contributions will be rewarded, allowing you to compare and share your ideas in order to accomplish more. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Your plans aren’t likely to play out as planned. Think on your feet and be prepared to change directions quickly when an unexpected turn of events takes place. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Stay in control and stick to your own agenda. A snap decision will prove costly, so stand your ground if anyone tries to push you in a direction you don’t want to go. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Sharing your newest ideas will bring you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Be ready to take a leap of faith. Actions speak louder than words. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Take some personal time to figure out what you want to do next. Feelings of uncertainty or doubt are best dealt with by mulling over your thoughts and considering what works best for you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Trust your intuition. Indecision and insecurity are holding you back. Constantly dwelling on past issues will prevent you from reaching your goals. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Let your voice be heard. Joining an organization or community group will lead to beneficial and worthwhile connections. Be a participant and make a difference. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Excessive spending won’t help you

shake the blues. Involve yourself in a physical activity that will free your mind from your current problems. Keeping busy will help you avoid obsessing over minor issues. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — An emotionally charged situation will turn out positively. Share your plans and discuss your intentions. Don’t take unnecessary risks; get the facts straight before you make a move. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Financial gains are looking good. You have much to offer, and an innovative idea is sure to capture a lot of favorable attention. Bask in the spotlight. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — It’s time to make some improvements. In addition to updating your appearance, consider making some changes to your living space that will add comfort and convenience. You will be proud of the results. SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 2014 Finish what you started a long time ago. You have the discipline and the ability to realize some old goals. There is an opportunity to make some extra cash if you can turn your efforts, talent or skills into a sideline business. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Make a move now. If you are offered an interesting position, accept the challenge it offers. You are overdue for some changes, and this can be the first step. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Stay in control of a situation that will influence your future. If you take action quickly, you will receive positive results. Be secretive to prevent others from meddling in your affairs. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Keep your opinions to yourself. Others may be particularly disagreeable, so work on something that you can do alone. Being drawn into petty arguments will be a waste of time. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Add some zest to your life. The use of all your talents will lead you to a new business venture. Keep work-

ing toward your goal, and an amazing and profitable project will develop. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Avoid getting involved in joint ventures. Your generosity will cause problems. Control your spending, and keep tabs on how much you have and how much you owe. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — If you don’t want to do something, don’t be afraid to say no. Have a heart-to-heart talk with someone who is making life difficult or uncertain. Trying to please others will be emotionally and physically draining for you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Unless you have the relevant details, don’t feel that you have to make a decision. It’s likely that someone is withholding the information you need. Do your own factfinding. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Meeting people is easier if you participate in community activities and events. If you follow your intuition, you will meet someone who will lead you down an exciting new path. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Don’t be too ready to offer details about your plans. Giving someone personal facts or figures could set you up for a fall. Guard your interests carefully. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Spend more time doing things you enjoy. Downtime is just as important as time spent working, especially when it comes to mental health. Gather your friends and have a good time with them. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Take a look at your bank account, assets and valuable possessions. You may have miscalculated expenses. Do away with non-essential purchases until you can get your finances sorted out. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Get all the facts. Serious discussions should be postponed until you feel ready and capable of acting responsibly. Legal or governmental matters are best handled with facts to back up your position.
