Brown ends 8-year battle against Coos County smoking culture

BY CHELSEA DAVIS

Monday, working for Prevention Lane on tobacco-free efforts.

Brown was Coos County’s tobacco prevention program coordinator.

Over the years, he’s succeeded in making schools, hospitals and city parks smoke-free across the county.

He’s had pushback, though. Some elected officials don’t think local municipalities should be responsible

Gas leak in North Bend

Over 2 decades old, the Pettingill murder remains clouded in mystery ■

BY THOMAS MORIARTY AND TIM NOVOTNY The World

By Lou Sennick, The World

A crew from Northwest Natural Gas begins line repairs at the scene of an accidental gas leak in North Bend on Thursday morning. The crew working on the new Grant Circle park in front of city hall accidently hit the gas line after 9 a.m. Fire and police evacuated city hall and several offices and businesses on the block until the line could be turned off. People were allowed to return to their offices and businesses less than an hour later.

County will list roads on tribal transportation plan

BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

COQUILLE — Coos County commissioners moved forward with the Coquille Indian Tribe’s proposal to list sections of about 20 county roads on its transportation plan to possibly get federal funding down the line.

The Coquille Indian Tribe proposed listing 84.3 miles of Coos County roads on its Tribal Transportation Program Roadway Inventory. The idea, Coos County Roadmaster John

Rowe said, is not to give the tribe authority over those roads, but to give the county a shot at funding for road repair.

“It has nothing to do with transfer of ownership,” said Commissioner John Sweet.

County counsel Josh Soper said the Oregon Government Ethics Commission determined there was no conflict of interest with any of the commissioners.

At the July 1 meeting, some county residents were concerned that all three could have conflicts.

Melissa Commissioner Cribbins was the tribe’s legal counsel before she took office, Commissioner Bob Main’s wife works for ORCA Communications (a tribe subsidiary) and Sweet serves on the Coquille Tribal Community Fund board of trustees.

Soper said a conflict of interest only exists if there is “financial benefit or detriment to the business with which that person is associated.”

“The Indian tribe and its subsidiaries do not qualify as a

business under that law, so there is no conflict of interest for the commissioners,” he said.

Todd Tripp, director of the tribe’s department of planning, realty and community services, said this proposal is a means to a possible partnership with the county someday.

“If a repair to a road is critical to our needs and your needs ... we could cooperate and tap into federal funding to do that,” Tripp said. “...Without these being on our transportation plan, we have no option to help you."

COOS BAY — When he left his house Aug. 31, 1991, Frank J. Pettingill told his wife he needed a TV guide from Curtis Mathes.

A friend needed hobby glue, so he said he would also pick some up from Fred Meyer.

That was the last anyone heard from him.

Two days later, hikers found the body of the 40-year-old Hallmark Fisheries manager off Blue Ridge Road in the unincorporated area of Sumner, southeast of Coos Bay. His cause of death? Homicidal violence from a weapon investigators have yet to name — or find.

“The injury he had — from a weapon, obviously — was a mortal wound,” Coos County District Attorney Paul Frasier recounted in his office recently. “Whoever did it intended for him to die, but it wasn’t like somebody putting a gun to the back of his head and pulling the trigger execution-style.”

Monaco RVs with the Monaco International RV Club sit parked at The Mill Casino-Hotel & RV Park for the club’s four day rally, which ends Saturday.

FORECAST

INSIDE

NORTH BEND — The big, shiny, Monaco coaches will soon be pulling out of The Mill Casino-Hotel & RV Park and heading for points unknown after spending the last week learning new things and rekindling old friendships.

Monaco International RV Club, a chapter of the Family Motor Coach Association,has been around for 30 years. Each year the members can travel thousands of miles to take part in a handful of rallies around the country.

It is an expensive hobby. Some of the larger coaches themselves can start at a half million dollars. Then, factor in that thousands of miles of travel can cost about a buck a mile in fuel costs.

Club membership is open to anyone who owns any brand of motor home manufactured

by Monaco Coach Corporation or Monaco RV. But, just who are those members?

“We’re kind of a real big family,” Jack Brewster said. The New York native has been serving as the rally master for this event.

He says there are currently about 2,000 members, stretching across the U.S. and Canada. They are about evenly split among full-timers and part-timers. Those referred to as full-timers don’t own a brick-andmorter home, as they spend a lot of their time on the road.

“I do it because I love to travel the United States,” Brewster said.“It’s a beautiful country with a lot of wonderful, fantastic things to see.

And it’s something I can do with my wife and I can have my own bed, my own food in my refrigerator when I want to eat. And we can travel and stop anyplace that we want to. It’s just a wonderful experience that we all enjoy.”

Current club president David Piper agrees. He has a home in Oklahoma that he checks in on from time to time, but those times can be few and far between.

“Since 2000, I’ve put about 250,000 miles on motor homes,” he said. And those miles are all over the map.

The winds of summer

BY GAIL ELBER For The World

The World File Photo

Why is the coast so windy in summer?

Marty Giles, a naturalist who runs Wavecrest Discoveries, often has to explain the phenomenon to guests of her tour business.

In the summer, the waters of the North Pacific are cooler than the land. Above these cool

waters is a mass of cool, highpressure air called the North Pacific High.

“Since winds around high pressure systems in the Northern Hemisphere rotate in a clockwise direction, our eastern edge of the Pacific gets the north-to-south part of the wind gyre — cold summer winds,” Giles explained.

In winter, the land is cooler than the North Pacific waters, and the air above the North Pacific rises,

creating a low-pressure system off our shore. “Winds around lowpressure systems in the Northern Hemisphere rotate in a counterclockwise direction, bringing warm moist air from the south to our wintry shore.”

When this warm, moist air encounters the colder air over the land, it drops its moisture as our abundant winter rain.

In addition to this large-scale air movement, on a sunny summer

day, as warm air rises off the land, cool ocean air flows toward the land to take its place. The hotter the sun, the faster the ocean air rushes toward the land.

Winds are lowest when the temperatures of land and water are closest, so head for the beach or paddle a coastal lake in the morning. The closer temperatures between land and water in autumn also give September our best weather.

Decision makes sense in the long run Our view The city is right to be worried about the conflict between state and federal laws.

What do you think?

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

Some may say the near inaction by the Coos Bay City Council regarding medical marijuana dispensaries is just another example of ineffective city leadership.

Rather than address the question of medical marijuana dispensaries directly, the City Council deferred to staff with an easy fix that prohibits licenses from being issued to any business with a dubious legal status.

Ineffective? No, more like prudent.

The city is right to be worried about the conflict between state and federal laws. For now, the federal gov-

ernment is not prosecuting the production, sale or use of medical or recreational marijuana in states that allow it.

But a future White House administration could reverse course and impose penalties.

That could be anything from charging city officials as accessories to a crime, to withholding federal funds — in Coos Bay’s case, City Manager Roger Craddock tells us those funds amount to millions of dollars, mostly for public safety and public works.

Protecting those funds in a strapped city budget makes sense. But seen another way, the council is trying to ride the

fence between state and federal laws dealing with medical marijuana.

For now, city officials will continue to look the other way for people with medical marijuana cards. Personal grows?

Those are OK, if you have a medical marijuana card and you follow the rules set by the state. The city sees them no differently than vegetable gardens. The same goes for small amounts of pot possession.

But don’t try a large-scale grow — that’s an agricultural activity and the city doesn’t allow those, even for vegetables. And don’t try to sell it — that’s a business and the city’s

not going to give you a license.

At least not right now. If the federal law changes, then under the city’s new law, you could get a business license.

Maybe.

The City Council’s action this week allowed some time for city leaders to make a decision about where dispensaries will be allowed if and when the federal government officially and permanently decriminalizes marijuana.

Let’s hope the city uses its borrowed time to do exactly that— that’s leadership.

Anything less just kicks the can down the road — that’s ineffective.

Flunking a blood test It sounded like fun. It always does until someone gets hurt.

For $100 apiece, Sue and I got our DNA tested. It’s simple: You sign up online, they send you a little kit, you spit into a fancy test tube and send it back. Six weeks later, voila — you know for sure where your ancestors came from. None of this “I was King Henry the Eighth in a past life” nonsense, but how much of me is European, how much is Asian, how much is African?

Am I a carrier of some genetic disease? How many of my relatives have taken this test?

The first thing most people say when they find out we did this is, “Why? What about your privacy?” Sorry, but if you have a Facebook page, a credit card or a driver’s license, your privacy ship has already sailed.

And really, what does it matter if someone knows my ethnic heritage or who my fifth and sixth cousins are? I don’t even care that much; why would anyone else?

The second question people ask is, “What did you find out? Were there any surprises?”

Oh, yeah, there was a surprise. The legend in my family, from the way my grandparents look in JIM old, fading photographs, MULLEN is that we have some Humorist Native American ancestry. But unless the Native Americans came over here from Ireland originally, the answer is a big honking “no.”

If I was anything in a past life, it was one of the Clancy Brothers.

No, the big surprise is that I am 2.6 percent Neanderthal. No wonder Mensa never called me back. First, I didn’t know Neanderthals and humans could mate. How can I have any of their genes? Sue had a lot of fun with that — until she opened her file.

Turns out she’s 2.5 percent Neanderthal.

The rest of her is more Irish than “Riverdance.” Still, she’s less caveman than I am, which she now mentions with depressing regularity. In public. Some things, it turns out, should be kept private.

The results also told me that I probably have brown hair and brown eyes, and on and on, then listed genetic markers I carry for diseases and syndromes which, at my age, I already have: arthritis, atrial fibrillation, male pattern baldness, etc. Having a marker for a disease or a cancer doesn’t mean you will get it, because most diseases need an environmental trigger, too. It seems I pulled a lot of triggers. But what if I had been tested as a child? Would I have lived the same kind of life?

The test tells you which of your relatives, known and unknown, have also taken this test. Since the test is only available to people who have an extra $100 handy, most of our distant relatives are not going to be in this database. Mine lists about 260 people I’m related to, most of them fifth or sixth cousins who live all over the world. You can choose to have your identity open to these people, or not. I chose “not.” It’s bad enough that Sue knows I’m Neanderthal; I don’t need distant cousins I never met lording it over me.

But the most interesting of all is that, if you like, you can become part of the quest to break all the DNA codes. By answering questions about your health history and your environment, anonymously if you like, it helps find new markers. And there are some real oddball questions: “Do you like the taste of cilantro?” It turns out that about 17 percent of people of European descent hate it. Suddenly we may discover a simple, inexpensive test for some condition.

Or maybe we’ll find out Neanderthals are much smarter than we thought.

What do you think?

Letters to the Editor Festival a hit; coverage was not I was amazed at the lack of coverage of the Cape Blanco Country Music Festival in The World. There were colored ads for the festival and a weekend thumbs up from the editor, but no reporting or photos of the festival itself!

As a Curry County subscriber, I expect some coverage of major happenings in my area, and this event had an impact on businesses all along the coast. I can't remember an event of this magnitude on the South Coast in the last decade!

Perhaps The World can recoup

its losses here by reporting on the impact to our communities of the Country Music Festival so that we can all be better prepared and share in the benefits next year.

Stopping Obama’s immigrant flood According to Rep. Luis Gutierrez, Obama intends “to act broadly and generously” on behalf of the “millions and millions” of illegal immigrants in the United States today.

Gutierrez, who meets often with the president, is implying that Obama,before Labor Day and by executive order, will grant de facto amnesty to five million illegal immigrants.

They will be granted work permits and permission to stay. With his pen and his phone, Obama will do what Congress has refused to do.

There is a precedent. Obama has already issued one executive order deferring the deportation of “dreamers,” children brought into the United States illegally by their parents before 2007.

Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions is on to what is afoot.“We must prevent the president’s massive amnesty from going forward,” he says, and urges legislation to block an executive amnesty. But this divided Congress is not going to pass any such law. Nor would Obama sign it.

Still, would Obama dare deliberately ignite a nationwide firestorm by declaring an executive amnesty for 5 million illegal immigrants?

Why not? Consider the risks — and the potential rewards.

On the downside, an Obama amnesty would polarize the country, imperil red-state Democrats and cause even allies to conclude he had become a rogue president who adheres to the Constitution and rule of law only so far as they comport with his agenda.

And what is his agenda? As he has said: to transform America.

O b a m a wants history to rank him among the transformat i o n a l presidents like PAT Lincoln, FDR BUCHANAN and Reagan. Columnist And what better way to transform America than to ensure her evolution from a Western and predominantly Christian country into that multicultural, multilingual, multiethnic, borderless land Teddy Roosevelt inveighed against as nothing but a “polyglot boarding house for the world”?

Obama did not like the America we grew up in.

As he told that closed-door fundraiser in San Francisco in 2008, that America was too full of life’s losers who “get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiments.”

What would be the political benefits to Obama of an amnesty?

It could weld Hispanics to the Democratic Party, would be wildly popular with the ideological and Christian left, and quietly welcomed by those Chamber-ofCommerce Republicans who have silently supported amnesty and secretly want immigration off the table in 2016.

An Obama amnesty would instantly become the blazing issue of 2014, replacing his foreign pol-

icy fecklessness, diffident leadership, and IRS, VA, Benghazi and Obamacare foul-ups and scandals.

Among Republicans, a roar would arise from the base to impeach Obama, no matter the consequences.

But while impeachment would divide Republicans, a Democratic call to arms to save the first black president from impeachment would unite his party and bring the money rolling in.

Every Republican running for the Senate would face the question: How would you vote on convicting the president, if the GOP House votes to impeach him for high crimes and misdemeanors?

In the long run, an amnesty that puts 5 million illegal immigrants, most of them from Third World nations, along with their progeny, on a certain path to citizenship, would complete the process of turning America blue.

How would such a blanket amnesty affect our country’s future?

After this second amnesty, word would go out to the world that if you can get into America, by whatever means necessary, and lay low for a while, there is a near certainty you will be able to stay.

The children pouring in from Central America, we are told, are fleeing repressive regimes. But billions of people in Asia, Africa and Latin America live under repressive regimes.

If all are entitled to come, they will come. And they will remake the West and America in their own image, Obama’s image, the

image of that Tower of Babel, the United Nations General Assembly.

How many more tens of millions of poor and uneducated people can we absorb before we exceed the carrying capacity of the republic?

How much more diversity can we handle before there is no unity left?

As we boast of our ethnic, cultural and religious diversity, what still makes us one nation and one people? For it is not religion. Not culture. Not custom. Not history.

Not tradition. Not language. Not ethnicity.

Is it only a Constitution and Bill of Rights — over the meaning of which we fight like cats and dogs.

What problems of America — from sinking test scores, to collapsing roads and bridges, to endless borrowing to save our social safety net, to income inequality, to culture wars — will be more easily solved with tens of millions more of the world’s destitute arriving?

The only problem that will surely be solved by the next 50 million immigrants, who follow the 50 million legal and illegal immigrants who have come since 1965, will be the problem presented by the continued existence of the Republican Party.

Americans should let Obama know what they think of his amnesty now,before he imposes it upon us.

Obituaries and State Parents’ abuse noticed by teen DEAR ABBY: I’m a 15year-old girl who has two younger brothers. My parents are good people, but they can be extremely harsh and cruel. They curse us out and scream at us for petty things almost every day. I told my best friend about it and she said that it is emotional abuse. I disagree.

I have always been told that every parent yells at their kids. Maybe not every day, but regardless, everyone gets mad sometimes. I honestly didn’t even think there was such a thing as emotional abuse.

I don’t know what to do. I have been suffering this almost my entire life. I didn’t think that it was abuse.

DEAR AM I being emotionally abused? I w o u l d appreciate your help.

— TIRED OF THE TIRADES DEAR TIRED: JEANNE answer PHILLIPS The to your question is yes, your friend is correct.

Because your parents have been doing this on a regular basis, it qualifies as verbal/emotional abuse. Be glad you now recognize it, because their lack of control isn’t normal.

Their anger and frustration may have nothing to do with you and your siblings.

The problem with this kind of abuse — as opposed to physical abuse — is that although it is damaging, it is often not taken seriously.

If there are family members or close friends who can intervene, help your parents to see how damaging their lack of control is and convince them to get help, you should confide in them. It might be a good idea for you and your brothers to spend as much time with friends in healthier families as you can.

This will get you out of the line of fire and enable you all to see what normal family interactions are like.

DEAR ABBY: I have been dating a divorced man, “Chris,” for four years. He has a son who is 16. On the weekends Chris has his son, I become the “invisible girlfriend.” Sometimes the three of us will go to a movie or out to eat, but I am NEVER welcome to spend the night.

Chris and I have talked about living together, but never in depth. Unless I bring it up, he never says anything about it. When Valentine’s Day came around, Chris asked if we could celebrate it a few days late because he was scheduled to have his son that night. I was heartbroken because even a Valentine dinner for the three of us was out.

I am beginning to think there is no future with Chris.

He seems fine just dating and seeing me every other weekend as someone to hang out with, but not to commit to.

Suggestions? — DISMISSED IN DENVER DISMISSED: DEAR When you started dating Chris, his son was 12. It seems to me that what he has done is put his parenting responsibilities before anything else, and I respect that.

If romance and marriage are what you’re looking for, I suggest you stop asking Chris about living together and ask instead about whether the two of you have a future.

Chris has been treating you like a friend with benefits for four years. The pattern is set and it isn’t likely to change by itself.

Lawsuit to stop salvage logging from 2013 fire ROSEBURG (AP) — The federal government plans salvage logging on Southern Oregon forests swept by wildfire last yea.

The timber would come from land in a 75-squaremile area ignited by a dry lightning storm near Glendale in southern Douglas County. The fires burned for weeks.

The Associated Press Two sales drew bids totalA helicopter assists in back-burning efforts as crews on both the ground and in the air set fires Friday morn- ing more than $1.6 million in July, but a third, larger sale ing to burn off fuel sources in the path of the wind-driven Rowena fire, west of The Dalles. didn’t draw interest.

Roseburg News-Review reports that three environmental groups have since gone to federal court in hopes of blocking the sale.

The suit says endangered northern spotted owls live in the area and are at risk if it’s logged.

Destructive wildfire threatens homes PORTLAND (AP) — Authorities say the wildfire burning in Oregon’s windswept Columbia River Gorge has destroyed a home, damaged two others and is threatening 740 more.

Residents of more than 140 homes have been told to evacuate and nearly 600 households have been put on alert in the community of Rowena near The Dalles.

The basalt walls of the gorge east of Portland funnel winds that draw wind surfers from afar, but what’s good for recreation gives firefighters fits.

“You look in one direction, and there’s a fire,” said fire spokesman Mike Waite.

“You look the other way and there are people out there wind surfing.”

The blaze covered about 5 square miles by Friday morning, according to fire officials. Winds Friday afternoon were expected to pick up again, with gusts up to 30

mph, making white caps on the Columbia River as it flows by the fire.

The flames started Tuesday in brush, spread rapidly, and forced hundreds of people to flee.

Many were allowed to return home Thursday, but the fire spread despite the efforts of more than 400 firefighters.

Ken Wright, who helped his daughter, son-in-law and their baby and pets evacuate Wednesday, said the fire surrounded his daughter’s house and four other homes. The family lives about half a mile from where the fire started and was one of the first seven homes evacuated.

“It was scary to watch your house almost burn up, it was pretty crazy,” said Wright, who watched — from a safe distance — fire engines battling the blaze around his daughter’s house.

“It’s amazing how those fire-

fighters kept the houses from burning, with the fire going around them.”

The family has been told not to return yet, because the fire may go back through the area, Wright said.

Fire crews were digging protective ditches around individual houses.

At a briefing in The Dalles on Friday, governor John Kitzhaber issued a warning to Oregon residents.

“This is a very explosive fire season,” he said. “We’re having enough trouble with lightening caused fires, so people should really be very intentional about using good fire safety practices when they’re in the woods recreating or using power tools.”

The cause of the fire is listed as under investigation, meaning lightning has been ruled out and investigators are looking at human causes.

Waite says the fire teams have pinpointed the fire’s start.

Oracle sues state over Cover Oregon SALEM (AP) — Oracle Corp. has sued the state of Oregon in a fight over the state’s health insurance exchange, saying government officials are using the technology company’s software despite $23 million in disputed bills.

Oracle’s breach-of-contract lawsuit against Cover Oregon was filed Friday in federal court in Portland.

It alleges that state officials repeatedly promised to pay the company but have not done so.

The lawsuit seeks payment of the disputed $23 million plus interest, along with other

unspecified damages.

Oregon’s health-insurance enrollment website was never launched to the general public. State officials have blamed Oracle, but the company says the state’s bad management is responsible.

Gov. John Kitzhaber has called for the state to sue Oracle and recover some of the $134 million it has already paid to the Redwood City, Calif., company.

In June, Oregon issued legal demands for documents that could become evidence in a possible lawsuit against Oracle under the state’s False Claims Act.

Drowning inspires free lifejacket offer GRANTS PASS (AP) — The drowning of a 7-yearold boy in the Rogue River in Grants Pass last week has inspired some people to offer the free use of lifejackets at popular spots along the river.

The Grants Pass Daily Courier reports Thursday that the Grants Pass Active Club, a nonprofit civic group, and Umpqua Bank are coordinating the project.

They want to set up shacks at popular spots along the river where people can get a lifejacket if they don’t have one.

Dakota Vincent had gone with family members to Baker Park in Grants Pass to cool off in the river after a day of moving into a new house in a nearby community.

Arson suspect pleads not guilty MEDFORD (AP) — A woman accused in three of Medford’s summer arson cases has pleaded not guilty.

The Medford Mail Tribune reports that 57-year-old Debra Irene Johns kept her head down during a brief hearing Wednesday.

Johns is charged with three fires: at a hardware store, in a park and at a public restroom at the Jackson County Jail.

Police have described her as homeless and said she’s a suspect in about 20 unsolved arson cases.

Salem filters algae toxin from water SALEM (AP) — The city of Salem is doing extra filtering of its water supply after finding a toxin produced by an algae bloom in samples from its primary source.

The Statesman Journal reports the toxin is called cylindrospermopsin.

City officials say it was at barely detectable levels in the water from the North Santiam River, and none remained in finished drinking water.

The Oregon Health Authority says the toxin can cause an illness in people and pets with symptoms including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

‘Sharing economy’ told to obey the rules

GRESHAM (AP) — An off-duty Portland police sergeant has been arrested by suburban Gresham police for investigation of drunken driving, reckless driving and criminal mischief.

KATU-TV reports that police say 43-year-old Sgt. James McMurray is accused of crashing his car into a fire hydrant, fence and yard Thursday morning.

Damage was estimated at about $5,000. No one was hurt.

Portland police say the 18year department veteran has been placed on paid leave pending the outcome of the investigation and an internal review.

SALEM (AP) — Salem officials are telling people in what’s become known as “the sharing economy” they must comply with city rules.

That means bed and breakfast permits, a fee of nearly $3,000 and breakfast offerings for people who rent out rooms on such homesharing services such as Airbnb and VRBO. And city officials have warned the worldwide ridesharing service Uber that people who offer rides for money must get the same licenses as taxi drivers.

The Statesman Journal reports that a “sharing economy” has been humming along for years in the city, on an underground basis.

But, it says, Uber’s splashy launch last month in Salem brought public and official attention to it, leading to the warnings.

Wind, rain eases as tropical storm Iselle passes Hawaii The Associated Press

President Barack Obama listens in the Oval Office on Friday during a phone call with Jordan’s King Abdullah II Jordan, according to the White House.

Obama’s Iraq aim: contain, not destroy, extremists WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama’s new military strategy in Iraq amounts to trying to contain — not destroy — the Islamic militant group that now controls much of the country’s northern region. That leaves open the questions of how deeply the U.S. will be drawn into the sectarian conflict, and whether airstrikes alone can stop the militants’ momentum.

Obama insists he will not send American ground troops back to Iraq after having withdrawn them in 2011, fulfilling a campaign promise. Still, even the limited airstrikes against the vicious

insurgency show the president’s conviction that the U.S. military cannot remain dormant after having fought an eight-year war that temporarily neutralized Sunni extremists but failed to produce lasting peace.

U.S. military jets launched several airstrikes Friday on isolated targets, including two mortar positions and a vehicle convoy in northeastern Iraq, near the country’s Kurdish capital of Irbil. U.S. officials announced Friday night the second airdrop of food and water in as many days for imperiled refugees in northwestern Iraq.

Still furious over the gruesome sights he had seen at the nearby Nazi concentration camp, the 19-year-old

self-described “skinny Jewish kid” from New York threw the black silk hat on the floor, jumped off the chair he had used to reach it and stomped Hitler’s formal headwear until it was flat.

has been ruled a homicide, District of Columbia police said Friday.

Federal prosecutors said only that they are reviewing the ruling. But a law professor and an attorney for John Hinckley Jr., who was found not guilty by reason of insanity in the shooting, said bringing new charges against the 59-year-old in Brady’s death seemed unlikely.

Brady lived through hours of delicate surgery and further operations over the past 33 years, but never regained normal use of his limbs and was often in a wheelchair.

An autopsy revealed the cause of death to be a gunshot wound and its health consequences, and the manner of death was ruled a homicide, according to a news release Friday from District police spokeswoman Gwendolyn Crump. Nancy Bull, district administrator for the Virginia medical examiner’s office, which made the ruling, declined to disclose any more results of the autopsy and referred inquiries to District police.

Besides partial paralysis from brain damage, Brady suffered short-term memory impairment, slurred speech and constant pain. His family said he died Monday at age 73 at his Virginia home from a series of health issues.

US bombs militants in Iraq as crisis worsens IRBIL, Iraq (AP) — The U.S. unleashed its first airstrikes in northern Iraq against militants of the Islamic State group Friday amid a worsening humanitarian crisis. The extremists took captive hundreds of women from a religious minority, according to an Iraqi official, while thousands of other civilians fled in fear.

Israel-Hamas truce collapses in new violence JERUSALEM (AP) — A three-day-old truce collapsed Friday in a new round of violence after Gaza militants resumed rocket attacks on Israel,drawing a wave of retaliatory airstrikes that killed at least five Palestinians, including three children.

The eruption of fighting shattered a brief calm in the monthlong war and dealt a blow to Egyptian-led efforts to secure a long-term ceasefire between the bitter enemies.

Ukrainian rebel leader gives Russia distance DONETSK, Ukraine (AP) — A Ukrainian has replaced a Russian at the helm of the insurgency in eastern Ukraine and declared that he wants “only moral support” from Moscow, as the Kremlin apparently tries to rebut Western claims that it is calling the shots among the rebels.

Many in the rebel ranks decry what they call Russia’s betrayal of their cause, but most vow to keep on fighting even as Ukrainian government troops close in on the main rebel stronghold, the eastern city of Donetsk.

A MINUTE MESSAGE From

NORM RUSSELL

Church Focus A question that has been raised regarding the tax status of churches is whether preachers in those churches that are nonprofit can discuss political issues with their congregations.

I have no idea how all of this is going, to be resolved, but as I read my Bible, it might be a good idea to focus on matters of faith, morals, and values and let the politicians deal with those matters that have to do with the running of the country.

Having said that I do believe we should be actively speaking out when it comes to things such as injustices (such as racism and abuses of people). God has called us to be light to the world.

When people need help, we should be the first to respond.

When people are being abused, then we should speak out about it. However, there are some things that simply are not in my purview to address.

Jesus has called us to lift Him up. He is the one that can bring justice and hope to those who find no where to turn.

As I read the life of Jesus, His sole purpose was to minister to people. Should that not be our mission as well?

Come worship with us Sunday.

WORLD D I G E S T declared the outbreak in West Africa to be an international public health emergency.

The latest Ebola outbreak is the largest and longest ever recorded for the disease,which has a death rate of about 50 percent and has so far killed at least 961 people, according to the U.N. health agency. It emerged in Guinea in March and has since spread to Sierra Leone, Liberia and Nigeria.

in jeopardy included thousands of members of the Yazidi religious minority whose plight — trapped on a mountaintop by the militants — prompted the U.S. to airdrop crates of food and water to them.

American planes conducted a second airdrop of food and water early Saturday for those trapped in the Sinjar mountains, said Pentagon chief spokesman Rear Adm. John Kirby. Escorted by two Navy fighter jets, three planes dropped 72 bundles of supplies for the refugees,

including more than 28,000 meals and more than 1,500 gallons of water, said Kirby, who spoke from New Delhi during a trip with U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel.

The extremists’ “campaign of terror against the innocent, including the Yazidi and Christian minorities, and its grotesque and targeted acts of violence bear all the warning signs and hallmarks of genocide,” said U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry. “For anyone who needed a wake-up call, this is it.”

BROWN Fewer in high school smoke Continued from Page A1 for enforcing smoking bans, or they see bans as infringing on individual freedoms.

“It usually comes down to the makeup of the decisionmaking body and our skill presenting them with a proposal in which they’re able to see the wisdom,” Brown said.

Efforts to ban smoking on the sidewalks outside the North Bend Annex didn’t make it through the North Bend City Council in 2010.

Similar measures, like the Mingus Park smoking ban, irked many in the communiincluding former ty, Councilor Jon Eck who voted against it, saying while he doesn’t smoke, “I don’t like having the government tell us what to do.”

“In the last few years, I’ve been pretty discouraged by what we haven’t been able to accomplish,” Brown said.

The number of Coos County high school juniors who smoke is half what it was when Brown started working here, but the adult tobacco usage rate remains unchanged.

“Tobacco use is a kid’s disease that continues on into their adult life,” he said.

“Eighty to 90 percent of long-term smokers started before they graduated high school.”

It’s Coos County’s culture that makes a recipe for poor health. Tobacco use is more accepted and considered normal here due to perception, he said.

When asked what percentage of adults smoke, local kids typically say 80 to 90 percent, he said. In reality, only 26 percent of Coos County adults are regular smokers, according to the 2014 County Health & Roadmaps Rankings report.

“You notice people doing things more than you notice people not doing things,” he said.

Statewide, tobacco use is less than half of what it was at its peak in the 1960s. At that time, smokers were found in every sector of society.

Today, it’s “a disease of the poor and disenfranchised.”

County Health Rankings reflects that unfortunate reality. The healthiest counties in Oregon are urban and well-educated. In terms of overall health, Coos County ranks 28th out of the 33 counties that reported data this year for the report.

For 15 years, Brown was a naturopathic physician, but

he found the work “frustrating.”

“There’s a lot of nonsense involved with alternative medicine,” he said. “My fantasy was I would teach people about nutrition, exercise and get them to lead healthy lives.

But very few people do that.”

So he started working on a master’s degree in public health at Oregon Health & Science University.

“It was out of the realization that I can do a lot more to benefit the health of the community by doing public health than by doing individual patient care,” he said.

“Obesity has skyrocketed, not because our genetics have changed; our environment has changed. It’s the same with tobacco use rates. It has to do with the tobacco use environment.”

One in four deaths in Coos County are directly related to tobacco use, according to the public health county’s department.

“Tobacco use is the single biggest cause of disease, death and disability,” he said.

“You say that, but it doesn’t seem to make a difference.

“Imagine if anything else caused death of those proportions. Imagine if plane or car crashes were killing as many people as tobacco does.

It would get our attention.”

Oregon gets millions of dollars every biennium from the Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement, but it’s never been used for tobacco control. After advocates made a push for the funds to be used in antismoking efforts during the 2013 legislative session, a round of Strategies for Policy and Environmental Change, or SPArC, tobacco-free grants were announced.

Lane County received one of them, and Brown will administer the tobacco prevention programs that fall under the grant.

“Prevention is a very difficult concept for the human psyche,” he said. “We respond to immediacy. It’s hard to respond to things that have long-term consequences.

“If someone becomes addicted to something at 14 and it kills them when they’re 52, that’s just as tragic as if that 52-year-old crashed their car into a tree. That’s something that we need to see, is the violence of addicting a child to tobacco. That long-term tragic consequence doesn’t catch our attention, but it’s still there.”

By Lou Sennick, The World

In early September 1991, Frank J. Pettingill was missing for over a day before his body was found. His pickup truck was found buried in the sand here at the South Jetty. Police say the case is still unsolved.

PETTINGILL

Coos County Unsolved

Continued from Page A1 investigators aren’t much closer to catching Pettingill’s killer. But they have an idea who it might be. An unidentified woman is considered a person of interest, and the prime suspect.

Typically, when a homicide victim is married, investigators first look in the direction of their spouse, but the DA said Pettingill’s wife was cooperative throughout, despite not reporting him missing right away.

He believes she had a good reason for that delay.

“I think she even took a polygraph test. So, we had nothing that would indicate that she was involved in this thing.

“My recollection was he had been missing — Saturday, he had disappeared and Monday we find him. It appeared that Frank had an alcohol problem in the past, so the fact that he didn’t show up, I’m reading between the lines here, but I think the reason she didn’t call right off the bat was, ‘Oh, he’s off on a binge.’”

The day after Pettingill’s body was found, investigators thought they had caught their big break. His pickup was found buried in the sand by the south jetty at Bastendorff Beach.

Frasier said police interviewed a man who had been camping nearby. He had given a ride to a woman he had seen next to the truck.

“He had actually given her a ride from the scene, from where the truck was, to town. To the Blue Moon.”

She was described as being in her early or mid-30s, with shaggy brown-blond hair and a slight overbite. At the time, she had a bandana in her hair and was wearing jeans ripped at the knees.

Investigators learned she was later seen in the company of members of the Outsiders motorcycle club. But, if anyone

“Without giving specifics, we have forensic evidence that would help if we could get a name,” Frasier added.

Sometimes cold cases can break on the smallest of details, and jogging memories can jar those details loose.

Frasier said one thing that still stands out in his memory of the weekend was the number of bikers that were in town.

Members of both the Outsiders and the Gypsy Jokers — which maintained a clubhouse in the Barview area until the mid-2000s — had gathered in the area to party.

But, he said, investigators are skeptical about whether the outlaw biker gangs had any real connection to the female suspect.

“Now, whether she was associated with (the Outsiders) or after the fact when she shows up at the Blue Moon where they are at, and then she got a ride with them, I don’t know.”

Investigators even secured a search warrant for the Outsiders’ clubhouse in Portland, but didn’t find anything. Grand Jury testimony likewise bore no fruit for law enforcement and the case temperature started to plummet.

“The company comes and brings new coaches,” he said.

During research for this story, a World reporter came across court documents from California, relating to a 1970s burglary trial of a person named Frank Jay Pettingill.

Found on the Stanford Law School website, the documents indicate that there was a Frank Jay Pettingill arrested in Eureka in 1976, along with three companions, at the scene of a burglary.

He had agreed to plead guilty to two counts of burglary, while two other counts were dropped, but his appeal on Miranda grounds was apparently successful two years later.

Investigators would likely not have had access to these documents, and definitely did not have the current online search capabilities that exist today.

But, as with the rest of this hazy cold case, questions abound. Is that the same Frank Pettingill? Possibly. If so, would anyone from that prior part of his life hold the key to who ended it?

That is the question and, currently, it is the freshest one investigators have.

Anyone with information about Frank Pettingill, his murder or the mystery woman, is asked to call the Coos County Sheriff’s Office, at 541-396-7800, and ask for Detective Staff Sgt. Dan Looney.

Relationships are important, he said, but they are really just part of the draw.

Local golfers win at junior tournament Reedsport is final stop for Umpqua Dairy series on the South Coast ■

BY JOHN GUNTHER The World

REEDSPORT — Several South Coast students who have spent the summer playing tournaments in other parts of the state finally got to play near home this week, during the annual Umpqua Dairy Juniors tournaments of the Oregon Golf Association.

Golfers competed in several divisions at Bandon Crossings on Wednesday, Watson Ranch on Thursday and Forest Hills Country Club.

After finishing second two days in a row, Marshfield student Preston Luckman managed to beat the others in the junior boys division (16 and 17 years old) at the Reedsport course Friday with his score of 74.

Luckman tied for second behind Tim Slama of Salem at Bandon Crossings and also finished second to Slama at Watson Ranch.

“I was playing way better yesterday and at Bandon,” he said. “I just couldn’t get my putter rolling.

“Today, I think I only hit seven greens in regulation. I was chipping and getting it within a foot. I one-putted everything.”

Well, not quite everything. Luckman three-putted the first green both times around the nine-hole course for bogeys. But he was solid the rest of the way while beating Jay Watts of Springfield by four strokes.

Luckman has played a number of tournaments this summer, including a few big ones. He finished second in an event at Roseburg and third in another at Springfield, but Friday was his first win.

“It’s a big confidence booster,” he said. “My game is finally paying off.”

Luckman, who will be a senior at Marshfield, compared his summer golfing experience to his other passion, race car driving.

He has been a regular at Coos Bay Speedway for several years, but this year has been driving more often at Willamette Speedway in Lebanon, which typically draws three times as many racers.

“There’s a lot more drivers,” he said. “It’s helped me with my driving.”

Last weekend, Luckman said he posted the top speed of the season in the late model division at Coos Bay Speedway, and also won the main event.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Rory McIlroy tracked the flight of his drive as long as he could against the rain clouds over Valhalla on Friday, not quite sure where it landed. He turned to his caddie for confirmation and asked, “Was it good?”

“Beautiful,” J.P. Fitzgerald replied, his eyes still fixed on a shot that traveled 311 yards right down the middle.

Such is the state of McIlroy’s game at the PGA Championship.

He produced superior shots with his long game. He made all the right putts Friday in a round of 4-under 67.

And even with a one-shot lead over Jason Day and Jim Furyk going into the weekend, there was an ominous feeling at the final major of the year.

“When I’m playing like this, it’s obviously very enjoyable,” McIlroy said. “I can’t wait to get back out on the course again tomorrow and do the same thing all over again.”

It used to be that way for Tiger Woods.

But on a day that McIlroy posted his 12th straight round under par, Woods hobbled away from Valhalla with a sore back and an uncertain future. He never came close to making the cut, and only a pair of late birdies kept it respectable. Woods had another 74 and missed the cut by five shots.

Oddly enough, McIlroy opened with the exact same scores (66-67) as Woods did 14 years ago at Valhalla when he barely outlasted Bob May in a playoff for his third straight major of

Rory McIlroy hits out of the bunker on the 12th hole during the second round of the PGA Championship on Friday. the season on his way to an unprecedented sweep of golf’s biggest events.

McIlroy, who was at 9-under 133, isn’t nearly at that stage. He picked up his third major — and the third leg of the career Grand Slam — last month at Royal Liverpool in a wire-to-wire win at the British Open. He followed with a comeback victory last week at Firestone for his first World Golf Championship.

The biggest difference between Valhalla now and 14 years ago was the competition lined up behind McIlroy.

Furyk, a former U.S. Open champion who was runner-up last year at

the PGA, got up-and-down from behind the green on the par-5 18th for birdie and a 68. Moments earlier, Day capped off the best round of a soggy day with a birdie on the 18th for a 65.

Day has three runner-up finishes in the majors.

Right behind were Ryan Palmer (70) and Rickie Fowler (66), a runnerup in the last two majors. Not to be overlooked was Phil Mickelson, a five-time major champion who made eagle on the last hole for a 67 to get within three shots.

College football and basketball players could be in line for paydays worth thousands of dollars once they leave school after a landmark ruling Friday that may change the way the NCAA does business.

A federal judge ruled that the NCAA can’t stop players from selling the rights to their names, images and likenesses, striking down NCAA regulations that prohibit them from getting anything other than scholarships and the cost of attendance at schools.

U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken in Oakland, California, ruled in favor of former UCLA basketball star Ed O’Bannon and 19 others in a lawsuit that challenged the NCAA’s regulation of college athletics on antitrust grounds. The injunction she issued allows players at big schools to have money generated by television contracts put into a trust fund to pay them when they leave.

In a partial victory for the NCAA, though, Wilken said the body that governs college athletics could set a cap on the money paid to athletes, as long as it allows at least $5,000 per athlete per year of competition. Individual schools could offer less money, she said, but only if they don’t unlawfully conspire among themselves to set those amounts.

That means FBS football players and Division I basketball players who are on rosters for four years could potentially get around

$20,000 when they leave school. Wilken said she set the $5,000 annual threshold to balance the NCAA’s fears about huge payments to players.

“The NCAA’s witnesses stated that their concerns about student-athlete compensation would be minimized or negated if compensation was capped at a few thousand dollars per year,” Wilken wrote.

The NCAA said it disagreed with the decision, but was still reviewing it.

But Sonny Vaccaro, the former athletic shoe representative who recruited O’Bannon to launch the suit, said it was a huge win for college athletes yet to come.

“The kids who are going to benefit from this are kids who don’t even know what we did today,” Vaccaro said.

“It may only be $5,000 but it’s $5,000 more than they get now.”

O’Bannon issued a statement calling the decision “a game changer” and precisely what he was after when he joined the suit.

“I just wanted to right a wrong,” O’Bannon said. “It is only fair that your own name, image and likeness belong to you, regardless of your definition of amateurism. Judge Wilken’s ruling ensures that basic principle shall apply to all participants in college athletics.”

The ruling comes after a five-year battle by O’Bannon and others on behalf of college athletes to receive a share of the billions of dollars generated by college athletics by huge television contracts.

NCAA hands the Big 5 more power INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — College football’s biggest schools are ready to spend millions of dollars more on their athletes.

Individual players are likely to cash in on only a small portion of that money.

After the NCAA’s board of directors voted 16-2 on Thursday to give the five power conferences the ability to establish some rules unilaterally, a handful of university presidents and chancellors unanimously agreed that payfor-play won’t be approved.

Instead, the school leaders said they were only willing to expand scholarship limits to provide a limited amount of spending money.

“I think there will be some institutions and conferences that will take a hard look at what that full cost-of-attendance means to them,” UCLA chancellor Gene Block said.

“But I think the other thing is we’ll be able to involve people in the process more quickly and in a more nimble way, and I think it’s really, really important that it protects the integrity of the collegiate model.”

Current rules only allow scholarships to cover the cost of tuition, room and board, books and fees. The five biggest leagues — the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and

SEC — have argued that they should help defray additional expenses such as laundry and travel for players’ families.

The schools will soon get that chance.

Conference leaders have until Oct. 1 to create a list of rules they’d like to change on their own.All it will require is a majority vote in one of the five leagues, and 12 of the 20 presidents or chancellors on the new, expanded board. An 80member committee, with one representative from each of the 65 schools and three student-athletes from each conference, would vote on the items. It would require 48 votes and a majority in three of five conferences or 41 votes and a majority in four of five conferences to pass.

NCAA President Mark Emmert said the board will retain veto power if it deems the solutions go too far,though he said that would be rare.

The top priority for most schools: giving athletes a stipend.

In October 2011, the board approved a measure to give up to $2,000 to athletes if their leagues opted in. Two months later, a group of smaller schools gathered enough signatures to overturn the vote, which prompted the big schools to seek autonomy over more items.

Sports Phelps comes up short again

The Associated Press

Crew members look over Danica Patrick’s car after she crashed during a practice session for Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Watkins Glen.

Patrick crashes in practice WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (AP) — Danica Patrick crashed in final Sprint Cup practice Friday at Watkins Glen International but walked away, was treated at the infield care center, and released.

Patrick’s No. 10 Chevrolet careened straight into a tire barrier coming out of the chicane at the top of the high-speed esses, crumpling the left front end.

“In the Carousel (turn after the chicane) there is so much load on the left front there that I guess that was the go spot for it,” said Patrick, who will have a second engine change before Cup qualifying Saturday.

“What a terrible day. It has been a record horrible day, I’m pretty sure.”

Crew chief Tony Gibson said it appeared the front left shock failed.

“It looks like it just compressed all down and done,” Gibson said. “We are going to change motors. We will just treat qualifying like another practice session. We will run as many laps as we can run and work on the car.”

Patrick was 32nd in the first practice and 36th in the final session.

Last year at The Glen, Patrick qualified 35th and finished 20th.

IRVINE, Calif. (AP) — Two events, two losses for Michael Phelps.

Tom Shields upset the three-time Olympic champion by a hundredth of a second to win the 100-meter butterfly at the U.S. national championships Friday night.

Shields touched in 51.29 seconds, tying for the second-fastest time in the world this year. Phelps was second in 51.30 — still third-quickest in the world — but he lost for the second time in two events in the biggest meet since he launched a comeback in April 1 after 1 ⁄2 years in retirement.

“I’m somebody who can’t stand to lose,” Phelps said. “I don’t care if it’s by a hundredth or by five seconds. This will definitely motivate me.”

Four of the seven quickest times in the world were recorded in the morning preliminaries, led by Phelps’ 51.17. But he couldn’t keep it together in the final against Shields, who won the 200 fly earlier in the meet.

“I knew I could make it a race, so I decided to go with confidence,” said Shields, who was cheered on by family and friends from his hometown of Huntington Beach.

Phelps is still likely to earn a spot on the U.S. team for

the Pan Pacific Championships this month, but he could have guaranteed himself a trip to Australia with a win in the event that he calls “my baby.” He finished next-to-last in the 100 freestyle Wednesday.

The 18-time Olympic gold medalist has two events remaining this weekend.

Tim Phillips was third in 51.54. Ryan Lochte finished fifth in 52.21.

Phillips led after one lap, when Phelps was seventh.

Known as a devastating closer, Phelps roared down the stretch, battling Shields every inch of the way as they swam next to each other.

“I knew in the last 15 (meters) it was going to be close,” Shields said.“I took one look. Phelps swims with these ridiculously high elbows.”

Phelps failed to take a final stroke and instead glided to the wall, where he got outtouched.

“It just cut all of my momentum,” he said.

Elizabeth Beisel bounced back from some earlier bad luck to win her fourth national title in the 400 individual medley and earn a place on the Pan Pacs team.

She was under Americanrecord pace for much of the

race before winning in 4:32.98 — fourth-quickest in the world. She won a silver medal in the event two years ago in London.

Beisel slipped at the start of the 200 backstroke on Thursday and ended up sixth.

Maya DiRado finished second in the IM in 4:35.75.

In the men’s 400 IM, Olympian Tyler Clary pulled away down the stretch to win with the world’s secondfastest time of 4:09.51. He built a big lead during his specialty backstroke leg before defending champion Chase Kalisz drastically cut into it.

Clary regained his momentum on the final freestyle leg and Kalisz settled for second in 4:11.52.

“Chase was reeling me in like a cowboy,” Clary said.

Sports Landon Donovan says he’ll retire after the season

Colon wins 200th game

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PHILADELPHIA — Bartolo Colon pitched eight innings for his 200th career victory, Travis d’Arnaud homered, and the New York Mets held on for a 5-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday night.

Da n i e l Murphy recorded MLB his fifth Recap s t ra i g h t multihit game with two singles for the Mets, who have won 10 of 11 in Philadelphia.

Marlon Byrd homered, Grady Sizemore drove in two runs, and Ben Revere had two of the Phillies’ nine hits.

Revere is batting a major league-best .388 since June 26.

The 41-year-old Colon (119) joined Pedro Martinez and Juan Marichal as the only Dominican-born pitchers to reach 200 victories. He gave up one run and six hits, struck out six and walked none.

Orioles 12, Cardinals 2: J.J. Hardy hit two of Baltimore’s season-high six home runs, and the Orioles cruised past St. Louis to move a season-high 17 games over .500.

Hardy hit a solo shot and a three-run drive for his 11th multihomer game. Manny Machado, Adam Jones, Chris Davis and Ryan Flaherty also connected as Baltimore (6649) reached double figures in runs for the first time since April 24.

Rays 4, Cubs 3, 10 innings: Kevin Kiermaier, who entered the game in the eighth inning, drove in the winning run with a single in the 10th to give Tampa Bay a victory over Chicago.

Desmond Jennings went 2 for 5 with a homer, and Ben Zobrist went 3 for 5 as Tampa Bay won its second straight.

In his Wrigley Field debut, touted Cubs prospect Javier Baez went 1 for 5 with a run scored and four strikeouts.

Pirates 2, Padres 1: Gregory Polanco and Josh Harrison had three hits each, and Vance Worley outdueled Ian Kennedy as Pittsburgh edged San Diego.

The Pirates (62-53) moved a season-high nine games over .500.

Worley (5-1) struck a season-high seven in seven innings and gave up one run, five hits and a walk.

Tigers 5, Blue Jays 4: Nick Castellanos tied the game with a two-run homer in the ninth inning, and Eugenio Suarez followed with a go-ahead shot as Detroit rallied to beat Toronto.

The Tigers trailed 4-2 entering the ninth against closer Casey Janssen. J.D. Martinez started the inning with a double. After an out, Castellanos homered on the first pitch. Two pitches later, Suarez gave the Tigers their first lead with a drive to center.

The Associated Press

New York Mets' Bartolo Colon pitches against the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday in Philadelphia.

Janssen (3-1) was replaced

by Aaron Loup after a twoout double by Ian Kinsler.

The blown save was Janssen’s third in 21 chances.

Marlins 2, Reds 1: Nathan Eovaldi gave his second straight shutdown performance, holding Cincinnati to five hits over eight shutout innings, and Giancarlo Stanton hit his NL-leading 28th homer, powering Miami to a victory.

The Reds fell to 8-13 since the All-Star break.

Eovaldi (6-6) got his first victory since June 23, ending a streak of three losses and four no-decisions. He walked one and struck out six while going eight innings for the second time this season.

Yankees 10, Indians 6: Carlos Beltran hit a grand slam and drove in five runs as the New York Yankees broke out to support fill-in starter Esmil Rogers and beat sloppy Cleveland for their sixth win in seven games.

Derek Jeter tied Honus Wagner with his 3,430th hit in a five-run first inning against Trevor Bauer (4-7), and Beltran’s 11th career slam highlighted a five-run sixth.

The Indians, who have the majors’ worst fielding percentage, prolonged both innings with errors in their fourth straight loss and seventh consecutive defeat in the Bronx.

Braves 7, Nationals 6: Justin Upton and Freddie Freeman hit two of Atlanta’s four homers off Stephen Strasburg, and the Braves snapped an eight-game losing streak with a win over Washington.

Atlanta, which nearly blew 1 a 7-0 lead, moved within 3 ⁄2 games of the NL East-lead-

ing Nationals. Washington, which had won two straight and four of six, has dropped 21 of 30 to the Braves.

Strasburg (8-10) allowed seven runs, seven hits and two walks with nine strikeouts in five innings, dropping to 1-3 with a 6.99 ERA in seven starts at Turner Field.

Royals 4, Giants 2: Billy Butler homered and drove in three runs, and right fielder Nori Aoki threw out two runners in the same inning as Kansas City beat San Francisco for its fifth straight victory.

The Royals, who haven’t been in the playoffs since winning the 1985 World Series, hold a half game lead for the second AL wild card.

Butler, who is hitting .423 in the past seven games, homered with two out in the first off Madison Bumgarner (13-9). Bumgarner went the distance, allowing four runs on seven hits. He walked none and struck out five, but his road scoreless streak was snapped at 17 innings.

Brewers 9, Dodgers 3: Rickie Weeks hit a three-run homer, and Gerardo Parra had two hits and two RBIs to lead Milwaukee over the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Dodgers went ahead 3-2 in the top of the seventh, then Milwaukee capitalized on two errors by reserve shortstop Justin Turner and scored four runs in their half of the inning.

Astros 4, Rangers 3: Robbie Grossman’s two-run homer put Houston ahead in the eighth inning and the Astros held on to top Texas.

Chris Carter hit his 25th home run for Houston, which trailed 2-1 entering the eighth. Grossman, who fin-

ished with three hits, homered off of Neal Cotts (2-6) to put the Astros on top.

Houston has won six straight against the Rangers.

Red Sox 4, Angels 2: Mike Napoli homered against former batterymate Jered Weaver and Yoenis Cespedes hit a two-run double, leading the Boston Red Sox to a 4-2 victory over Los Angeles.

Allen Webster (2-1) allowed two runs and four hits over 6 2-3 innings in his third start since getting recalled from Triple-A on July 26. The right-hander struck out three, walked two and hit two batters.

Weaver (12-7) lost for the first time since June 16, allowing four runs and seven hits through six innings.

Diamondbacks 5, Rockies 3: David Peralta had two extra-base hits and stole home, Miguel Montero hit a three-run homer, and Arizona beat listless Colorado.

Montero homered off Tyler Matzek (2-7) in the first inning of the matchup between the NL West’s two worst teams.

Athletics 6, Twins 5: Scott Kazmir faced the minimum through six innings before running into trouble, Coco Crisp hit a basesloaded triple, and Oakland held off Minnesota for its 11th straight win in the series.

The Twins last victory over the Athletics was at Minnesota on Sept. 10, 2013.

The A’s are 5-0 this year.

Kazmir (13-4) tossed just eight balls among his first 42 pitches through four perfect innings before Kennys Vargas broke up the bid with a single off shortstop Jed Lowrie’s glove.

Sean Doolittle retired for-

Zunino leads Mariners over White Sox SEATTLE (AP) — Mike Zunino hit a three-run homer, Hisashi Iwakuma pitched seven innings and the Seattle Mariners beat the Chicago White Sox 41 on Friday night for their fourth straight victory.

Zunino moved into a tie for the major league lead in home runs by a catcher with his 18th of the season. Zunino’s opposite-field drive to right off Jose Quintana in the fifth gave Seattle a 3-1 lead and came after Chicago third baseman Conor Gillaspie dropped a popup from Logan Morrison. Kendrys Morales added a sacrifice fly later in the inning.

Iwakuma (10-6) became the third Seattle pitcher with double-digit victories this season. The Japanese righthander allowed one run and five hits, struck out three and walked none.

Iwakuma improved to 5-2 with a 2.04 ERA in his last eight starts. He has pitched at least seven innings in his last seven outings.

Fernando Rodney pitched the ninth for his 32nd save in 35 opportunities as Seattle remained a half-game behind Kansas City for the second wild card in

the American League.

Dayan Viciedo continued his success against Seattle with an opposite-field solo homer on the first pitch he saw from Iwakuma in the fourth, but that accounted for all of Chicago’s offense.

The White Sox have lost four straight and six of seven.

Quintana (6-8) retired 12 of his first 14 batters before falling apart in the fifth when Seattle sent nine batters to the plate. Chris Denorfia walked on four pitches to start the inning, followed by Gillaspie’s error. Quintana fell behind Zunino 2-0 and left a fastball elevated on the outer half of the plate.

Quintana followed by giving up singles to Chris Taylor and Austin Jackson, and an intentional walk to Robinson Cano loaded the bases. Morales’ fly ball was deep enough for Taylor to score.

Trainer’s room Chicago: Outfielder Adam Eaton lasted one batter before leaving the game. Eaton grounded out to start the game and walked slowly back to the dugout. He left with soreness in his rib

cage and was replaced by Leury Garcia.

Seattle: Utilityman Willie Bloomquist was lost for the season after a scope on Friday revealed that he needed microfracture surgery on his right knee.

Bloomquist should be ready by spring training next season. Bloomquist had played six different field positions this season, but manager Lloyd McClendon said he doesn’t feel he needs a true utility player in the short term.

Up next Chicago: Former Seattle pitcher Hector Noesi (6-8) will throw for the second time in his career against the Mariners. Noesi was designated for assignment earlier this season by Seattle, but has latched on with the White Sox and is scheduled to make his 19th start.

Seattle: Left-hander James Paxton (2-0) will make his second start after several setbacks that have limited him this season. Paxton threw 4 1-3 innings on Aug. 2 in Baltimore in his first start since April 8. Paxton first landed on the disabled list in April because of a strained lat muscle.

CARSON, Calif. (AP) — A year after Landon Donovan returned to soccer, he realized he had lost his passion for the sport again. This time, the best player in American history decided to walk away for good.

The 32-year-old Donovan announced Thursday he will retire from professional soccer at the end of the MLS season, wrapping up the most prolific career in the league’s history with one last run at a championship with the LA Galaxy.

“I think for the last few years, I haven’t had the same passion that I had previously in my career,” Donovan said at the Galaxy’s stadium. “To some extent, I had felt obligated to keep playing. ... It’s time to enjoy the rest of the season, and there would be no better way than to go out as a champion, so that’s what I want to do.”

Donovan is the top goalscorer in MLS history and the top scorer in U.S. national team history, excelling as a forward and a midfielder. He was even named the most valuable player of his 14th MLS All-Star game on Wednesday night in Portland, scoring a goal in the All-Stars’ 2-1 win over Bayern Munich, only to make his stunning retirement announcement the next day.

“All I could think is that if everyone only knew,” Donovan said with a grin.

Donovan, a five-time MLS champion with the Galaxy and the San Jose Earthquakes, made his retirement announcement on the same stage where he agreed to a multiyear contract extension with the Galaxy just a year ago, pronouncing himself revitalized after an extended sabbatical.

He took several months off following the Galaxy’s second straight MLS Cup title alongside now-retired David Beckham in December 2012.

“It gets me excited thinking about it,” Donovan said.

“For 16 years, almost every decision I’ve made, every hour of every day, has revolved around, ‘How is this

Los Angeles Galaxy forward Landon Donovan said Thursday that he is retiring from professional soccer at the end of the season. going to prepare me for tomorrow’s training session or tomorrow’s game?’ Just having the freedom to do whatever you want is exciting, and I’m looking forward to that.”

Donovan has been a key component of MLS’ impressive growth during his 14 years in the top North American league. After he struggled for playing time at Bayer Leverkusen as a teenager, he chose to pursue a pro career in his native California instead of Europe, adding a marquee attraction to the then-struggling league.

“There is no doubt that Major League Soccer would not be what it is today without Landon Donovan,” MLS Commissioner Don Garber said. “His decision to join MLS in 2001 was a statement to the entire soccer community, at the most crucial time in our history, that MLS could be a league of choice for the best American players. Landon is to MLS what Michael Jordan was to the NBA, Wayne Gretzky was to the NHL and Tiger Woods was to the PGA Tour: a player whose sporting accomplishments and popularity transformed their respective leagues and set a new standard for how the game would be played.”

Donovan is the career U.S. leader with 57 international goals over 156 appearances, and he has scored five World Cup goals.

Wiggins

Bennett

Cavs, Wolves deal is now set THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LeBron James and Kevin Love won Olympic gold medals together. They’re about to team up again, this time to try and end Cleveland’s 50-year championship drought.

Love will soon be on his way from Minnesota to Cleveland after the teams reached an agreement in principle to a trade that will send the AllStar forward to the Cavaliers for Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett and a first-round draft pick, two people with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Thursday.

They spoke on condition of anonymity because no official agreement can be reached until Aug. 23, when Wiggins, this year’s No. 1 overall draft pick, becomes eligible to be traded.

By that point, the deal could be expanded to include a third team, according to one of the people familiar with the talks. The Timberwolves have had discussions with the Philadelphia 76ers about acquiring forward Thaddeus Young to help fill Love’s shoes.

For now, the deal will unite Love, James and All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving in a new-look “Big 3” in Cleveland and give the city’s long-suffering sports fans realistic chance to celebrate a first title

since 1964, when the Browns won the NFL title.

The Love-to-Cleveland chatter has been going on for weeks and the teams had been discussing a possible deal long before James announced he was re-signing with the Cavaliers.

Now in the prime of his career at 29, James is the best player in the NBA as he returns home to Ohio. Irving is 22, this year’s All-Star game MVP, and just beginning to scratch his potential. And the 25-year-old Love is coming off his best season, one in which he averaged 26.1 points, 12.5 rebounds and 4.4 assists.

For the Timberwolves, the departure of Love ends one era. But Wiggins could be the start of something special in Minnesota.

A prep sensation in Canada before spending one season at Kansas, he’s a super-athletic wing player scouts deem NBA-ready from a defensive standpoint.

He needs to work on his offense, but appears to be a perfect fit to play alongside point guard Ricky Rubio in a new, more up-tempo Wolves offense.

Bennett, the No. 1 pick in 2013, also has intriguing potential. He struggled last season while recovering from a shoulder injury but looked much improved in the Las Vegas Summer League.

Auto Racing

Local swimmers shine in open water THE WORLD A quartet of masters swimmers from the South Coast spent last weekend at Elk Lake near Bend swimming up to 11,000 meters or 6.8 miles towards the South Sister and back.

Dave Wash of North Bend swam all five events from 500 meters to the 5K Open Water National Championship.

Wash placed second in the 5-kilometer race in 1 hour, 25 minutes and 14 seconds and was first in the men’s 5054 age group in the 1,500 (24:44) and 500 (7:46.1) events. He placed third in

the 3K (47:21) on the first day and ended the weekend placing second in the 1,000-meter swim (17:18.7). For his efforts, he was one of only 59 swimmers out of 199 at the event who won the accolade of “Survivor” for swimming all five events of the weekend.

Ralph Mohr also competed in the 5K (3.1 miles) National Championship. He was second in the 70-74 men with a time of 1:33:50. Mohr was second in the 3K (54:24) and 1,500 (27:17) through the weekend. He and Wash both received plaques for completing the Long Series of events — 3K, 1,500 and 5K swims.

Nikki Jackson of Coos Bay and Salem brought home a plaque by placing third overall in the combined Short Series events, which consisted of the 1,500, 500 and 1,000 meter swims. In her women’s 40-44 age group she was ninth in the 1,500 (27:32), sixth in the 500 (8:44.6) and third in the 1,000 (18:18.6).

Jon Richards also scored a plaque for his efforts in the Short Series events for Men 65-69. Swimming in a wet suit he was first in all three events, 1,500 (29:18), 500 (8:58.8) and 1,000 (19:37.1).

Lounsbury has impressive Ironman THE WORLD Local triathletes went all over the Pacific Northwest recently to compete at various levels and distances, but the longest and toughest was the Canadian Ironman, held British at Whistler, Columbia.

Robert Lounsbury of North Bend fought chilly water, a rolling bicycle course and a malfunctioning exercise computer to finish 58th out of 1,909 competitors and seventh in his 45-49 men’s age group.

Lounsbury’s time of 10 hours, 25 minutes and 43 seconds was 10 minutes faster than his time last year at Sand Point, Idaho. Even more significant was that he was nine minutes slower than last year in the 4,000meter swim, due to the large number of participants in the mass start. He made up that deficit and 10 more minutes in his 112-mile bike ride and marathon run at 2,193 feet.

“It was an amazing day,” Lounsbury commented after the race. “It was painful and I can say I didn’t leave anything on the course. Not everything went according to plan but we adjust and move forward to conquer. Its absolutely amazing feeling now that it’s over.”

Another story of the day for Lounsbury was he had to fall back on the adage “trust your plan.” His power meter and cadence sensor on his bike failed to engage.

“I raced totally by feel and that is why the plan was huge,” he said. ”I said to myself, ‘Trust the plan.’ I had to use all those words to get

Robert Lounsbury rounds the final corner of a recent Ironman triathlon in Canada. me through the bike because I didn’t have anything to gauge my effort.

“You’ve done the work, you’ve made the plan, now go race as fast as you can,” he said to himself during the bike and run. “Don’t leave any regrets.

“I raced the run by feel too. I think I only looked at my heart rate once all run. I was really in a zone on the run. I was super focused. The run was a blur and it doesn’t seem like I ran a marathon. It seems like it was a half at best.”

Lounsbury, Tammy Robert’s wife, said her husband is an inspiration after he finishes triathlons.

“Robert goes back out to the finish line from 9 p.m. to midnight cheering on the athletes still finishing up the (Ironman),” she said. “It’s very emotional for these people who have been on the course since 7 a.m. Many come across with tears spilling down their cheeks.”

Tanya Goodson of Coos Bay finished an Olympic Triathlon held in Bend the same weekend. She finished in 3:14:43.9. This included a 1,500-yard swim in the 54degree Deschutes River, a 25mile bike and 10-kilometer run.

“I never want to swim in 54-degree water ever again!”

Goodson said afterwards. “I

felt best about the bike ride.

My jog was hard because it was hot, but even though I walk jogged it my pace still wasn’t horrible.

“Working towards an Olympic triathlon has given me a real sense of purpose and motivation for stepping up fitness regime. It was hard and I am proud of myself.

This is just the beginning of my competitive tri career.”

This was Goodson’s first time at the full Olympic triathlon distance.

Amber Curtis-Trudell completed a sprint triathlon in the Try-a-Tri division in Bend. She finished the race, which included a 60-yard swim, 12.5-mile bike and 5K run, in 1:44:46.4.

“I felt good and tired,” she said. “I finished 35th overall but first in my age group! I was also seventh overall in the swim.”

Both women were competing at an altitude of over 3,000 feet.

Mike Shaffer of Coos Bay was in a sprint triathlon held at Cottage Grove. He was very happy with his effort.

“Yes, it is an absolute blast and I’m looking forward to my next event,” he said.

“Also, I appreciate the local support from Robert (Lounsbury), Jayna (Tomac) and Ralph (Mohr) on the swim. It was almost a minute and 20 seconds faster than my last tri.”

Coos Bay Police Chief Gary McCullough was part of a team during the triathlon at Cottage Grove, combining with local athletes Garth Frost and Frank Burger.

The group finished second overall in a time of 2:38:10.

Dirty Dawg Dash is next weekend Mud run includes two different courses this year ■

THE WORLD The second annual Dirty Dawg Dash will be held next weekend near North Bend.

The race, a benefit for the North Bend track and field and boys soccer teams, is the first of three consecutive offroad races over the next few weeks.

The Dirty Dawg Dash begins at noon Saturday, Aug. 16, near the 3-mile mark on East Bay Drive (just south of Carlson Heights).

This year, the event includes two courses, mod-

erate and difficult, though neither are particularly easy.

The shorter course will be about 2 miles and the longer one adds a steep hill and a few additional obstacles. Both feature several challenges, including climbing over walls, crawling through mud, carrying a pole, trudging through a waist-deep mud pit and more elements designed to make the event a true mud run.

The entry fee is $15 for students high school or younger and $25 for adults. It includes a T-shirt and food after the race.

For more information, call Jake Smith at 541-4046806. To sign up, send an email with name, age and Tshirt size to dirtydawg-

dash@yahoo.com.

Both of the longer races include long, challenging hills.

The entry fee is $10 ($8 for students) and proceeds will go to the Pregnancy Resource Center.

For more information, contact Patrick Myers by phone at 541-290-7530 or email at pmyers1224@msn.com.

The annual run to honor former South Coast Running Club member Scotty Brown will be held Saturday, Aug. 23, starting at 10 a.m. along Prefontaine Drive in Coos Bay. Brown was a popular running club member who loved trail runs and died when he was 42.

Sports

Age-group records fall in Circle the Bay THE WORLD Four age-group records fell during the 41st Circle the Bay road run last weekend.

Sailor Hutton of Bandon won the women’s race and set a new 14-and-under age group record with her time of 2 hours, 13 minutes and 45 seconds for the 30-kilometer (18.2-mile) race.

Sailor’s twin brother, Hunter, also set an age-group record with his time of 2:29:20 and finished in the top 10 individually. The two twins will be freshmen this fall.

The other age-group records came from a couple of the older runners.

Jerry Roberts of Myrtle Point set a 60-64 record with his time of 2:12:59, finishing fourth overall. Howard

Cohen set a record in the 6569 division with his time of 2:26:41.

Bradley Pigage won the race in 1:56:36. He was followed by Michael Kelly (1:57:23) and the twins’ father, Brent Hutton (2:03:15). Hutton was first among masters (40-andover) runners.

Jenny McGriff was second among the women in 2:26:49. Dana Perry was the master’s champion in 2:59:49.

Dick Bemrose was the walk champion with a time of 3:56:49.

An age-group record also was set in the three-person relay by the Bandon-area team Women of the Word, which included Keri Undell, Beth Hutton and Terri Eckhoff. Their time of

4:21:02 set a female grandmasters record.

The Hustlin’ Hooters, an Oregon Institute of Technology team including former Marshfield standouts Sergio Marroquin, Connor Devereux and Zach Hammond, won the relay division in 1:48:03.

They were followed by a North Bend cross country team, the Inverse Oreo, including Steven Smith, Michael Brown and Nick Hossley (2:02:02) and the Myrtle Point squad Team Karl, including Karl Smith, Cody McDonald and Tristan Mussatti (2:07:46).

The race included 20 relay teams and 43 individuals.

Similarly, golfing against bigger groups has helped him in his golf game.

“I played very smart with my head,” Luckman said. “I only pulled the driver twice my entire round.”

Two other local students won their divisions Friday — siblings Jackson and Cassie Kennon of Bandon. It was the second win of the week for each.

“I played pretty well,” said Jackson, who had the best score of any golfer Friday, a 73, to win the intermediate (12-13) age group.

“I wasn’t consistent with my swing. I was trying to work on something. When my swings were right, I made the putts (for birdies).”

Jackson had five birdies on the day, the biggest a 60footer from off the green for birdie on his 16th hole.

“That was the gamechanger,” said Nate Stember of Portland, who finished second in the age group with a 75.

The two were tied when they teed off on the hole, but Stember three-putted and Jackson walked off the green with a two-stroke lead.

Jackson won the event at Bandon Crossings, also shooting a 1-over 73, and lost to Elliott Goulet of Milwaukie in a playoff at Watson Ranch decided by the scorecards (starting with the hardest hole).

He enjoyed having three tournaments close to home

Even so, McIlroy is dangerous when he gets in the lead, especially at a major. He learned his lesson at Augusta National in 2011 when he tried to protect a four-shot lead and wound up shooting 80. He bounced back for an eightshot win at the U.S. Open, won the PGA Championship by a record eight shots a year later and only last month went wire-to-wire to win the third leg of the career Grand Slam at the British Open.

“My mindset has stayed the same since that day at Augusta,” McIlroy said. “If I’m two ahead going into the weekend here, I’m going to try to get three ahead. And if I’m three ahead, I’m going to try to get four ahead. ... I’m just going to try to keep the pedal down and get as many ahead as possible.”

He didn’t take his first lead until the par-5 18th hole, the midway point of his round.

McIlroy hit 4-iron to the front of the green, and his eagle putt rammed into the back of the cup as if it had nowhere else to go. It was a moment where the No. 1 player in the world looked as if he had just seized control of the PGA Championship.

“It would be big. It would be a fourth major championship, two in one year, two in a row,” McIlroy said of the prospects of winning.

“There’s a lot of golf left to play, I’m going to try my best to just keep what I’ve got and keep doing that.”

He was reminded that winning majors isn’t easy, even if he can make it look that way.

In sloppy conditions, McIlroy took bogey on the tough par-4 second hole, and

after much travel all summer.

“You have a little hometown fun,” he said. “It’s exciting to wake up in your own bed.”

Cassie Kennon has only been old enough to play in the tournaments for a month.

She won the pee wee 8-9 age group Friday with a 62, three shots better than Cierra Ferguson of Lake Oswego.

Cassie also beat Ferguson at Bandon Crossings, while the order was reversed at Watson Ranch.

She won Friday despite taking an 11 on one hole, when she hit the ball out of bounds.

“I did actually play pretty good,” she said, adding that she was “happy” to win two of the three events.

Scotty Kennon, the third sibling in the golfing family, was second in the pee wee 10-11 age group Friday after similarly coming up short in the other events earlier in the week.

Other winners Friday were Jackson Barstow of Grants Pass in the boys (1415) division, Angela Lu of Happy Valley in the girls (1517) age group and Brody Marconi of Portland in the pee wee boys division, along with three golfers who were the only ones in their age groups — Tannia Porter of Eugene (intermediate girls 12-14), Jordan Higgins of Beaverton (pee wee boys 8-9) and Chloe Tarkany of Bend (pee wee girls 10-11).

Complete results for all three tournaments can be found in today’s Community Scoreboard on Page B5.

then had to scramble for four straight pars. But on the par-5 seventh, after another big tee shot on the left side of the fairway, he hit a 5-wood over the water to 8 feet, a shot that reminded everyone why he’s the class of golf. That was one of the few putts he missed — he still made birdie — and McIlroy finished with a 15foot birdie on the final hole.

“When he hits the driver that straight and that long, and the short game is incredible, it’s very difficult to beat him,” U.S. Open champion Martin Kaymer said. “His iron shots, they are very solid. He doesn’t miss many golf shots. So you just have to respect it a lot, how good he plays. There’s nothing wrong with his game.”

Fowler saw it during the final round at Royal Liverpool last month. He knows what kind of work is left for the guys chasing him.

It can be done. But they might need some help from McIlroy.

“He’s the best player in the world right now,” Fowler said.

“And I would say a lot of that is his confidence right now with the way he’s driving the ball. If he continues to drive it, he’s going to continue to be in contention at a lot of golf tournaments and win a lot of times.”

Vape shops pick up steam Business owners see commercial opportunity in e-cigarette trend ■

BY GAIL ELBER For The World

NORTH BEND — When Lori Kidd went to Utah this spring, she was mystified when she saw people sucking on penlike devices.

Discreetly, she asked her sister, “Are those drugs?”

Her sister explained personal vaporizers, referred to as e-cigarettes — devices that turn nicotine-laced liquid into a cool vapor that one can inhale as an alternative to smoking.

“I bought one that night,” Kidd said.

“I’m a pack-a-day smoker. We drove all the way back from Ogden, Utah, and I didn’t smoke one cigarette.”

“And I said, ‘I’m opening a store.’”

With no retail experience, Kidd opened Ozone Vapors at 2472 Broadway St., in North Bend, in June, and sales have been far above her expectations, she said this week.

“I didn’t know how many people in this town wanted to quit smoking.”

Across town, Jason Witte and Brogan Waybrant opened Dark Light Vapors at 761 Virginia Ave. in February.

When the pair owned Midcoast Ship & Store and Office Ex in Reedsport, they found that many of their customers were curious when they saw them vaping.

Soon Witte and Waybrant were ordering vaporizers and juice — the liquid that produces the vapor — for their customers, and they decided to open a vape shop in North Bend.

Most people take up vaping to quit smoking, Witte said. They can start with ejuice that has a nicotine level comparable with that in a cigarette, and taper down to juice with less nicotine, or even none at all.

Meanwhile, they can enjoy a smoking-like ritual pretty much anywhere, without afflicting those around them with secondhand smoke.

Once they have the equipment, the juice is much cheaper than cigarettes. A $10 bottle might last for two weeks.

Vapers say they can puff in most restaurants and stores, although most businesses won’t let employees vape on the job.

The jury’s still out on whether vaping is safer than smoking in the long term, but vapers are happy with the tradeoff. disagree Researchers about whether vaping is a good way to quit smoking.

John Gretzinger, a musician in Bandon, said vaping has enabled him to remain cigarette-free for five years.

Alison In contrast, Wasson, a Coos Bay photographer, tried vaping to quit smoking, but found that it gave her headaches.

But people who want to quit smoking, especially elderly people, are the biggest customers at Ozone Vapors, Kidd says.

Kidd was a caregiver before she opened the store.

She modeled it on stores she’d seen in Utah, and went online to study the available products. She ended up going on alibaba.com to buy directly from manufacturers in China and the Philippines.

She has a tasting bar where customers can try nicotine-free e-juices in fla-

Understand the need for corporate meetings Q: I have a small subchapter S corporation.

Do I need to have an annual meeting and maintain records of the meeting minutes?

A: Corporations are formed under the laws of the state where they are incorporated.

DOWN TO They are operated in accordance with the articles of incorporation and bylaws filed when the corporate entity is formed. The ARLENE subchapter SOTO S designation is a special tax election under the federal Internal Revenue Code, significantly impacting how federal taxes are calculated and paid. All corporations must comply with the laws of the state where they are formed. All state corporation laws mandate that meeting minutes must be kept of any proceedings of shareholders, directors and/or any executive committee members. Generally, state corporation laws require meeting minutes to be in writing and accessible if requested for IRS audit or legal proceedings involving the corporation. Business owners frequently choose to operate as a corporation to protect owner’s personal assets in case of legal action against the company.

Often, state corporation laws allow corporate shareholders in small corporations to take business actions without holding an official meeting as long as the minimum number of shareholders required to take action indicate in writing their consent. The written consent then represents the corporate minutes and no formal meeting was required. The minimum number of shareholders required will be documented in the articles of incorporation and/or the bylaws for the business.

Failure to hold annual corporate meetings and maintain written meeting minutes may lead to serious consequences for shareholders. For instance, in legal actions, individual shareholders might be held liable for corporate debts leaving personal assets at risk. This is called “piercing the corporate veil.” When a corporation’s shareholders are sued personally under this legal theory, the court will examine several factors including whether the corporation maintained proper recordkeeping, kept personal and business financial transactions separated and held required shareholder meetings having the proper meeting minutes documented.

Since the formation and management of a corporation involves many legal factors, it is a good idea to use a corporate attorney to assist with any legal questions including corporate formation and annual meetings with proper documentation.

Referrals to attorneys qualified to assist with corporate law can be found through the state bar association.

Jake Martin adds a wick to another customer’s mod at Dark Light Vapors as Billy Higman exhales a cloud of vapor. Some enthusiasts, called “cloud chasers,” adapt their vaporizers to produce maximum vapor, but many vapers prefer a discreet stream that is acceptable in public places.

The future is clouded The proliferation of vaporization devices has made it hard for analysts to track sales in the industry. Until recently, industry estimates generally counted only sales of “cigalikes,” the disposable stick-shaped devices sold alongside cigarettes. In April, the Wall Street Journal quoted Wells Fargo tobacco analyst Bonnie Herzog’s estimate of e-cigarettes as a $2 billion industry. A January article in BusinessWeek cited a Bloomberg Industries projection that vapers would outnumber smokers by 2023.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration doesn’t regulate e-cigs, although manufacturers and dealers aren’t allowed to say that the devices are healthier than smoking. Although no law prohibits the sale of the devices to minors, Oregon dealers have been operating under a self-imposed rule to sell only to customers 18 and older. Both the federal government and the Oregon legislature have indicated that they plan to regulate e-cigs. Neither Coos Bay, North Bend nor Coos County has taken up the matter.

Lori Kidd poses with her own vaporizer and the store’s flavor list at Ozone Vapors.

She gets advice from some of her customers who have turned vaping into a hobby, spending hundreds of dollars on sophisticated vaporizers (called “mods”) with custom interchangeable parts. They tinker with them in search of the perfect flavor, the perfect nicotine buzz, even the perfect cloud of vapor.

These serious hobbyists also congregate at Dark Light, where tools are available for them to work on their mods and experiment with creating exotic flavors of e-juice, which the owners blend onsite.

Tuesday evening, they had just debuted key lime pie filling, and several customers lingered by the counter, eager to praise Witte and Waybrant, to testify to their

own success at quitting smoking and to talk about vaping technology.

“People who are in the lifestyle, we keep ourselves informed,” said Billy Higman. modified Unskillfully vaporizers have been known to blow up, since they involve powerful batteries.

“When you get to this level, you have to know Ohm’s Law,” said Jake Martin, another customer, as he poked a new wick into a friend’s mod.

E-cigs and vaporizers aren’t sold only at vape shops. Entry-level devices are available in most places where cigarettes are sold.

They’re also sold at head shops, including Flashback Tees at 510 Newmark Ave., in Empire, which has been carrying vaporizers for about a year, said manager Brandi Jaques.

na gravitate to premium products like the $250 Pax vaporizer, which heats actual tobacco or marijuana without burning it to create the vapor.

But she also has a steady stream of new customers who might never have visited a head shop before, but venture in looking for vaporizers to quit smoking. For them, she carries juices and entrylevel vaporizers.

She learned early on to keep the juices stocked, because her new e-cig customers depend on her.

“They come in and they’re jonesin’,” she joked. “They need their fix.”

What with the uncertain regulatory status of e-cigs and the cannabis connection, the owners of Ozone Vapors and Dark Light Vapors have struggled with non-vapers’ perceptions of their businesses. Six landlords have turned Witte

Florence, he said.

Kidd doesn’t particularly cater to marijuana users, although her Facebook page does mention Snoop Dogg herbal vaporizers. She has no plans to change that if Oregon legalizes marijuana.

“My customers aren’t going to want to come into something that they think is a drug shop,” she said.

Witte said Dark Light sells herbal vaporizers only to people with medical marijuana cards, and has no plans to introduce cannabis products if they’re legalized.

Witte, Waybrant, Kidd and several of their customers said they’re glad to spread what they consider a healthier alternative to cigarettes.

“If we can change one person’s life to quit smoking, how big of a thing is that?” asked Kidd.

Fall 2014 home decor: an ensemble production TOUCH OF FALL

BY KIM COOK Associated Press Are you a fan of midcentury modern? Drawn to classic elegance? Does the handcraft of global dicor grab you?

There was an era when experts said to pick just one, but now we can mix and match or go all in. Each season brings updated versions of successful pieces, plus an interesting array of new looks.

This fall’s no exception.

“Keep an eye out for versatile accent pieces, the kind that can work in a myriad of places, and consider material and color combinations,” says Beth Kushnick, set decorator for CBS’ “The Good Wife.” “These are some of the easiest ways to refresh any space, and there’s a ton of stylish options out right now at a range of price points.”

After her sophisticated sets drew an online following, Kushnick has created her own furnishings line, which debuts this fall.

She says fall 2014 is about finding pieces that provide maximum impact without a lot of effort.

Some themes this season:

“Look for texture-rich accessories — like a box with stone inlay or a wooden sculpture — that add an element of nature to your space.

Mix in a variety of metals to add a sense of luxury,” Kushnick advises.

Says Los Angeles-based designer Trip Haenisch: “I’m seeing a lot of fabrics with luxe textures this season.

Linen velvets and woven fabrics are really in. You can quickly and inexpensively incorporate texture into your space through the use of pillows and throws.”

At fall previews, retailers were showing soft throws shot through with metallic threads or embroidered with subtle sequins. Rose gold is the inginue on the metallics stage; its soft, pink-tinged finish looks new, and you’ll see it on tabletop accessories, lamps, even silverware.

Warm brass continues to play a big role, trimming tables, embedded in wooden trays, formed into curvy or linear vases and lamps. It picks up the midcentury vibe but suits traditional spaces too. Chrome and acrylic hit contemporary high notes.

On ceramics, you’ll find reactive and dip glazes, and more matte finishes

than ever before.

Mercury glass, a dicor darling for the past few seasons, gets a few tweaks with etched patterns and added color.

LIGHT IT UP High-end lighting design has found its way into the mid-range market, which means pricier styles at massmarket retailers.

Look for shades with crisp geometrics, nubby textures and crewel-work patterns to update lamps for not much money.

Pierced metal is showing up in many accents, including lighting. Milky glass pendants look countrymodern. You’ll also find matte-finish shades with foil interiors that catch light dramatically; Ikea has table and floor lamps with coppery lining.

A tapered table lamp like the Melrose from Crate & Barrel provides midcentury flair. brushed-aluConical, and minum sconces pendants have space-age style. And for a luxe look, think about acrylic and crystal lamps.

Real Estate Hangout house: why some homes become teen central

BY LISA A. FLAM Associated Press

Start with amenities like a monster TV or fire pit, add a never-ending supply of munchies and a relaxed attitude toward your kids bringing home a friend — or five — and you may just find that your place has become THE place where the tweens and teens want to be.

A hangout house is often the first spot kids think to gather to work on a school project or binge on the latest Xbox game or silly YouTube videos.

“There are some houses that are sort of like magnetic,” says Dana Points, editor-in-chief of Parents magazine. “A hangout house is well-stocked, welcoming, casually decorated and not too fussy, and where there’s an adult present, but on the periphery.”

Sure, with more kids around you can count on some extra cleanup or home repairs, a louder-thanusual roar, and the expense of keeping kids in chips,

Two years ago, the Smiths added a $115,000 open-air pool house, decked out with fireplace, large TV, refrigerator, two grills and couches, to make the pool area attractive year-round.

“It’s nice to know they’re safe because they’re outside with music on, plenty of food and drink versus a movie theater parking lot,” Smith said, adding that now, at ages 19 and 24, her daughters still regularly invite friends over.

Another hangout-house parent, Jeff Kasky, says it’s not necessarily what’s in his five-bedroom home that makes it a draw; it’s his relaxed yet not overly permissive approach.

A father of boys ages 12, 13 and 16, Kasky resides on a kid-filled cul-de-sac in a gated community in Delray Beach, Florida, with his fiancee, who has a 7-yearold daughter. The four kids enjoy having friends over, especially the two older boys.

Kids play on gaming sys-

cookies and (maybe even) baby carrots.

But parents who open their doors to the masses say the upsides are being able to keep tabs on their kids, getting to know their friends well and gaining a peek into their tender worlds.

“I have girls, so it’s very important to have them here,” said Tammy Smith, 48. “I felt safer with them being here. The best way to keep your kids and their friends where you can see them is to own a pool and a pool house.”

Seven years ago, she and her husband built an 8,000square-foot home on nearly 13 acres in Trussville, Alabama, so they would have room for a heated pool and hot tub. After Friday night high school football games, her daughters would often pile in with eight or nine girls (plus boys who were eventually sent home) for a swim or sleepover.

Besides swimming, the kids could play ping pong, pool or video games.

tems or watch football on the 120-inch, high-definition TV with surround sound, enjoy the fire pit, practice musical instruments and “just lie all over the place” on couches and recliners.

“They know when they come over to our house, there’s no pretense,” Kasky says. “They can just have a good time. It’s good, clean fun.”

Since Kasky is, in his own words, a “fairly immature 46-year-old,” he gives his kids leeway to get a little rowdy as long as the antics stay positive.

“I’m not going to tell them to keep their voice down for no reason,” he said.

Supervision is crucial during the teen years, when kids may try to sneak sips of a Bud when the lights are low during a movie. Parents can subtly remind kids of their presence by throwing in a load of laundry or offering snacks.

“There are parents who,

Waterfront Home!

Get ready to hit the (flower) beds Preparation is the key to any project.

Fully half of a paint job -and sometimes as much as 80 percent -- is getting the surface ready for the paint.

That can be as simple as a good scrubbing to remove accumulated grime or days spent patching holes, sanding and scraping.

Gardening is no different.

A brown-thumbed buddy once set out to grow a flower garden. Her preparation: She outfitted herself with shortalls (the Daisy Duke'd version of bib overalls; honest, that's what they're called), cotton gloves with flowers printed on their backs and a straw hat.

No trowel. No cultivator.

Not even knee pads.

But once dressed for gardening, she figured the rest would fall into place and flowers would blossom.

They did not.

I bring this up because I was perplexed last spring when another buddy (apparently also embarking on a gardening career) called to ask whether he could borrow my shovel.

Which shovel?

"You know. For dirt."

What are you going to shovel?

"Dirt. Like I said. Can I borrow it or not?"

I have half a dozen shovels, and nearly all can handle dirt. I'm just trying to figure out what you need.

"Six shovels?"

At least. Plus forks and trowels and hoes and several rakes.

"I'll call you back."

He never did.

Anyway, all that prompts "The offer me to HouseWorks Gardening Shopping List":

Basic stuff Shovel: Long handle, pointy blade and tread for stompin' on. Get a good one, and it'll outlast you.

■ Rakes: Hardened steel tines for gardening, flexible tines for leaves and light brush. Many prefer bamboo rakes for leaves, but I like steel. As far as I can tell, it's just a matter of personal preference.

■ Hoses: Enough yardage to reach from the tap to the back fence, plus a few feet.

■ Lawn sprinkler and hose-end sprayer.

■ Wheelbarrow or garden cart: The cart will be less tip-prone, but you can mix concrete in the wheelbarrow.

■ Gloves: Deerskin holds up MUCH better than cotton, but even those will have ■

unbelievable $20 for more than 30 years ago. They cost about $50 now.

■ Lopping shears: Because some stuff's just too thick for snips.

■ Pruning saw: Because other stuff's even thicker.

■ Knee pads or foam kneeler: If you buy pads, strap them on and crawl around for a while to be sure they work for you. I've thrown out a couple of pairs that didn't.

to be replaced every year or two.

Better stuff ■ Trowel: I went through several cheap steel trowels before I settled on heavy aluminum. Impossible to sharpen, but they never rust.

■ Hoe: My main hoe has a heavy steel blade that's held to its handle in a socket -like a pick. I got it from Smith & Hawken, an outfit that specialized in HOUSE gonna-lastforever garden gear back in the '80s. Sadly, the company is gone, and I have no idea how I'll replace STEVE the hoe's BATIE handle if it breaks.

■ Snips: The best have removable blades that make them easier to sharpen. I still use the Felco snips I paid a then-

Even better stuff ■Cultivator: Handier for weeding within the beds than a hoe.

■ Garden fork: For harvesting root crops, turning compost and tossing manure over the back fence.

■ Pickup truck: It's how you fetch that manure.

■ Gardening books: To keep you sane next winter.

Put them on your Christmas list.

having people around and says the noise doesn’t bother her.

Smith felt the same way, though her husband was a little less tolerant of the floating pizza crusts and cookies that forced them to drain and clean the hot tub several times, or of the latenight laughter.

“I always thought it was a pleasant feeling, lying in bed and you heard all the giggling,” Smith said.

Having a hangout house is not for everyone.

“Not everybody enjoys their teenager,” Smith said.

“You’ve got to want to be around them and be easygoing and still set the rules.”

Many parents who want their house to be the cool house can’t make it happen, try as they might.

“You might have a formula, but there’s some magical piece,” Points says, a “secret sauce” that’s intangible, yet needed to have a house full of other people’s kids.

in order to be the cool house, have had to relax that rule and say as long as you are in the house you can have a drink,” Kasky said.

“That’s not acceptable to me for teenagers.”

Samantha Leggat describes her home in Livermore, California, as a playground, with lots of activities for kids, like skateboarding or playing Xbox or Wii. Sometimes, when it’s just her boys, ages 12 and 14, they can’t figure out what to do — until a friend comes over. That’s how Leggat prefers it, so she knows they’re not making bad choices or in an unsupervised home.

“I’d rather they be here than anywhere else because I can be the parental person keeping an ear out,” says Leggat, 48. “I’m never hovering over them. I get to know the kids and be providing them with all the things they need.”

Leggat likes the energy of

Religion Pittsburgh Episcopalians OK same-sex certificates PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh says its clergy may sign marriage certificates for same-sex couples.

The Pittsburgh PostGazette reports the new rule is spelled out in a letter to the diocese from Bishop Dorsey McConnell.

The Episcopal Church approved a provisional rite for same-sex couples at its General Convention last year, subject to approval by local bishops.

In approving the rite for

use in the Pittsburgh diocese last year, McConnell did not order diocesan priests to perform same-sex marriages, but simply gave them the option to perform them if their conscience dictated.

That was before a federal judge in May struck down Pennsylvania’s law defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman, effectively making same-sex marriage legal in the state.

Diocesan spokesman Rich Creehan said the latest move gives clergy who choose to

RELIGION D I G E S T marry same-sex couples the power to issue legally binding marriage certificates.

Pittsylvania prayer injunction will remain DANVILLE, Va. (AP) — A judge says he won’t dissolve an injunction barring Virginia’s Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors

from opening meetings with sectarian prayers.

An opinion filed by U.S. District Judge Michael Urbanski says a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling doesn’t support dissolving the injunction.

In May, the Supreme Court upheld the practice of reciting prayers at the start of the Greece Town Board’s meetings in Greece, New York. The Pittsylvania County board cited the ruling in its motion to dissolve or modify Urbanski’s injunction.

Urbanksi says the Pittsylvania County case is different. He says the board took an active role in leading the prayers and dictating their content.

He says he can’t modify the injunction while the board’s appeal of it is pending before the Fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Pope reinstates suspended priest VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis has reinstated a

Nicaraguan priest suspended by the Vatican in the 1980s for participating in Nicaragua’s leftist Sandinista government.

The 81-year-old Rev. Miguel D’Escoto Brockmann, Nicaragua’s foreign minister from 1979-1990, recently wrote to Francis asking to be allowed to celebrate Mass again before he died. The Vatican said Monday that Francis had agreed and asked D’Escoto’s superior in the Maryknoll order to help reintroduce him into priestly ministry.

Authorized user may have cause for concern D e a r M a r y : When my brother-in-law was a pastor, he was authorized to use the church credit card to purchase things for the church.

He has not been at that church for over a year, and the church has never paid the final bill of $7,000.

Because he was named an “authorized user” on the account, should he be concerned that this is impacting his credit report EVERYDAY CHEAPSKATE nt i ev eg lay -?

W h a t should he do? — Cindy S. Dear Cindy: Y o u r fears may be wellfounded Mary b e ca u se Hunt wh i l e y o u r brother-in-law is an “authorized user,” he carries no financial obligation to repay the balance, yet every month the status of that account is being reported to his credit file.

If the church is making the required payments on time and not charging over the limit on the account, what is being reported will be positive. No worries there. But if the church falls behind in making the required payments each month, late payments showing on his report could quickly become negative for him, sending his credit score plummeting.

No matter the status of the account, as an authorized user he can simply call the creditor to request to be removed from the account.

He should do that immediately.

Dear Mary: In 2008 I had zero credit-card debt. Now I have two credit cards with balances of $27,000 and $47,000. The issues that created the debt load have all been addressed and eliminated.

Is there a way to negotiate with the credit card companies to reduce the payoff amount? When I’ve looked into this, most of debt-settlement people suggest that if I miss a minimum of three payments, then the companies will negotiate. I would rather not go through that kind of pain. — Gene G. Dear Gene: I believe you are referring to third-party debt settlement companies that promise to get your debt reduced.

You are right. Most will advise you that they can negotiate to reduce what you owe to just pennies on the dollar, but first you will need to stop making payments in order to send a signal to these creditor(s) that you may be getting ready to file for bankruptcy. And that’s where things can get dicey.

Honestly, those are the worst scam artists and I would recommend that you run, not walk, from anyone making those claims and giving that kind of advice.

Did they mention their fees?

They’re enormous. And horror stories abound for how these clowns run off with all the money you are not sending to your creditors each month, but paying to them instead for “safe keeping.”

Even if the banks were to negotiate your balances directly with you (don’t count on it), you would have to come up with the negotiated amount in full. And don’t forget that the amount forgiven would be reported as 1099 income on which you would owe taxes.

Look, you borrowed the money willingly, and you spent it. The right thing would be for you to pay what you owe.

I am happy to know that you have addressed the underlying issues that landed you in so much debt.

You’ve learned some tough lessons — ones you are not likely to have to repeat.

That’s a good thing.

SUNDAY, AUGUST 10, 2014 Delicate situations are apparent. Let the voice of experience guide you through uncertainty.

Stubbornness will not serve you well this year, causing you to miss out on some valuable information.

Opportunities will come your way, but you will need to be receptive to unusual methods.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Some issues can’t be avoided. Deal with important matters promptly to avoid being held back. Protect your interests to prevent personal problems. A professional situation will trouble you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Put some fun in your day. You could miss out on both love and laughter if you are too isolated. Take advantage of this high cycle and make plans with friends.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — You can turn things around if you concentrate on the positive aspects of your life. Feeling sorry for yourself is not a valid excuse for neglecting your friends, family or responsibilities.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — There will be a whirlwind of activity around you. Put things in perspective and realize that you can’t control everything. Sometimes, it’s best to sit back and enjoy the ride.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Let loose and indulge in an adventure. Make plans to discover something that will challenge you mentally and physically. Show off to draw positive attention that could result in new opportunities.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Take the time to re-evaluate your financial situation. By consulting with professionals, you will find that there are many avenues available to improve your cash flow and ease your stress.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Follow your heart. Make a clean sweep of the people or ideas that have been holding you back. The positive changes you make today will benefit you in the future.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — If you believe everything you hear, you will learn a hard lesson.

Separate fact from fantasy and pro-

ceed with caution. It’s better to be safe than sorry.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — You can and should reduce your stress level. Getting worked up over minor issues will cause you unnecessary headaches as well as make those around you edgy and upset.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Good fortune is shining on you.

Move forward with your most meaningful projects. Marketing and presenting your unique skills will contribute to your success.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — You will lose friends and credibility if you try to give financial advice to others. Understanding and improving your own money matters should be your prime concern.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You will meet someone who has a positive influence on your future.

Discovering who you are and what you enjoy most will improve your mindset. Put your needs first.

MONDAY, AUGUST 11, 2014 If you have faith and confidence, you will be able to handle all the demands and responsibilities you face. Expecting too much from others will not give you the rewards you are seeking. Believe that you can make a difference, and others will believe in you too.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Don’t lag when it comes to important paperwork.You will find shortcuts as well as interesting options that will be beneficial legally, financially or contractually. Channel your energy wisely.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Emotionally charged issues will develop if you are overly sensitive to what others say. Seek an objective opinion from someone you trust.

Getting the facts straight will eliminate misunderstandings.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — It’s impossible to reach a decision if uncertainty prevails. Don’t be coerced by anyone who puts pressure on you to make a move. Stay put until you know you are making the right choice.

Don’t let anything get you down.

Present your plans in order to make progress. Help will arrive from an unexpected source.

PUBLISHED: The World: August 07,09, and 11, 2014 (ID-20257687) Trustee’s Notice of Sale Reference is made to that certain trust deed made by Kelly D. Kennedy, as grantor to Ticor Title Company, as trustee in favor of Dorothy McEachern Revocable living trust dated 03/31/10, as beneficiary dated October 4, 2010, recorded on October 4, 2010, in the Records of Coos County Oregon, in Volume No. 2010-9057, covering the following described real property situated in that county and state, to-wit:

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

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

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

Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the real property to satisfy the obligations secured by the trust deed and a notice of default has been recorded pursuant to Ore-

gon Revised Statutes 86.735 (3); the default for which the foreclosure is made in grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sums: Failure to make monthly payments December, 2013 Through May, 2014, Failure to pay Coos County real property taxes 2013-2014.

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

fault complained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, and in addition to paying those sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with trustee and attorney fees not exceeding the amounts provided by ORS 86.753.

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

BRIDGE Warren Spahn, a Hall of Fame pitcher who in 1957 won the World Series and Cy Young award playing for the Milwaukee Braves, said, “Hitting is timing. Pitching is upsetting timing.”

What a simple way to sum up baseball. In bridge, timing can also be vital. In today’s deal, how should South time the play to make four hearts after West leads the spade queen? Let’s assume that declarer ducks (loses) the first trick and takes the second with dummy’s ace.

That South hand is worth more

than 18 points because of all those aces and kings.

South needs to assume that the trumps are breaking 3-2; otherwise, the contract has no chance. But even then, declarer still has four potential losers: one spade, one heart and two diamonds. The major-suit losers are unavoidable. If the missing diamonds are 3-3, there won’t be a problem. If, though, they are the more likely 4-2, declarer will have to ruff a diamond in the dummy.

Suppose South cashes his top trumps, then plays three rounds of diamonds. West wins the third diamond, cashes his heart jack, and takes the diamond queen for down one.

If instead South immediately plays three rounds of diamonds, West wins and plays a fourth diamond, which promotes a second trump trick for the defense.

The correct timing is not obvious. South must duck the first round of diamonds. Probably East will win and play another spade. South ruffs, draws two rounds of trumps, then reverts to diamonds.

Even if a defender could ruff a high diamond, the contract would still be safe.
