Pettit is a write-in for CB council
Bridge closure causes delays Fatal accident is one of two incidents
BY DEVAN PATEL The World

A truck went off the work platform under the McCullough Bridge on Wednesday night, resulting in the death of one man and the closure of the bridge.The North Bay Fire District and Lakeside diving team responded to the scene and recovered the vehicle with the help of Mast Bros.Towing.

One thousand and eighty-five miles from the ocean breeze and glistening sun of Foster City, Calif., sit the rolling Black Hills of South Dakota. Not exactly the idea of paradise or a destination that screams “life-altering,” but for Al Pettit, a trip to Sturgis, S. D., in 2000 would change his life forever. Then the acting vice president of corporate marketing for Citrix Systems, Pettit would witness the largest motorcycle rally to date. “You’d have motorcycle gangs mingling amongst doctors and lawyers, and outside of a few drunken brawls, everyone was civil toward one another,” Pettit said. “The only thing these 600,000 or so people had in common was an American-made Harley-Davidson, and it was quite the phenomenon.” As more and more time elapsed from the experience, the memory, already burned into his mind, would re-emerge. Just as he wore down from the grind of corporate America, a new fire ignited. “After I burned out from business and wanted to do something else, I’d always turn back to this,” Pettit said. “I told my wife this is what I wanted to Al Pettit do, and we went from there.” Ditching the corporate life he was accustomed to while working at Apple, Digital Island, SealedMedia and the aforementioned Citrix Systems, Pettit and his family moved to Coos Bay in the fall of 2006 and have owned and operated Highway 101 Harley-Davidson ever since, but not without their share of troubles. “I probably bought at the worst possible time, in 2006, because just after I did, the economy just tanked,” Pettit said. “We were able to ride out the rough spots and turn it around.” Being someone who has experienced firsthand how rough the business climate is, Pettit is determined to SEE PETTIT | A8

Another nurse there also became infected and is being treated outside Washington; her condition was upgraded from fair to good. Health officials say Vinson visited the Akron area Oct. 10-13 to prepare for her wedding and was diagnosed once she returned to Dallas.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Doctors no longer detect Ebola in a Texas nurse who flew to Ohio and back before she was diagnosed with the virus, her family said Wednesday. Officials at Emory University Hospital and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention couldn’t detect Ebola in Amber Vinson as of Tuesday evening, her family said in a statement released through a media consultant. Doctors usually do two tests a day apart before saying they can’t detect the virus. It’s

8th Street gate to stay — for now BY DEVAN PATEL The World
COOS BAY — The North Eighth Street gate will remain in place for now after the Coos Bay City Council decided not to take any action regarding its removal. The gate, located near the 1800 block of Eighth Street, has been a point of contention after concerns were raised regarding its effect on the response time of emergency responders. In a report by Coos Bay Fire Chief Mark Anderson, he found there was some delay in responding to calls for assistance because a detour had to be taken. Complicating matters for the council, they had to determine if removing the gate would impose new public safety concerns on the area, which ironically caused residents to take action in the first place by installing the gate. With numerous residents in attendance, many offered impassioned pleas to the city to consider the dangers of removing the gate, including Lou and Kathie Leberti, who financed and installed the gate after getting approval from the city council in 2005. “We have a lot of children that play in the street, and I just worry what would happen if they open up the street,” Kathie Leberti said. “Think of the safety of the children.” Prior to the gate’s installation, the street had gone through two different periods of activity. Up until 1996, a berm occupied the area where the SEE GATE | A8

Oregon lawmakers press to delay Newport CG air facility’s closure NORTH BEND — Oregon lawmakers have banded together to try to convince the U.S. Coast Guard to delay its decision to close down its air facility in Newport. On Wednesday, Oregon Sens. Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley joined with Reps. Kurt Schrader, Peter DeFazio, Suzanne Bonamici and Earl Blumenauer to call on the Coast Guard to keep the air facility in Newport open for at least six months. The Coast Guard recently announced its plans to close down the air facility in
Newport on Dec. 1 because of its budget plan, and consolidate all of its aviation resources on the Oregon Coast to Astoria and North Bend. Lawmakers said the decision to close the facility came with little notice and the closure will happen the opening day of crabbing season, which is one of the most dangerous of the fishing seasons. On Monday night, Newport held a community meeting in which many concerned citizens voiced to the Coast Guard that the closing will cost lives.
Admiral Paul Zukunft, the commandant of the Coast Guard, wrote a letter to Sen. Wyden on Tuesday, and he stated that he sincerely understands the concerns but the Coast Guard has found “overlapping asset coverage” in the area. Lawmakers responded Wednesday with a letter to the admiral stating that closing the facility on the start of crabbing season with a notice of only two months was “unacceptable.” In the letter, they asked at the least to delay the closure until the end of crabbing season.

Rep. DeFazio deserves another term Our view As long as an elected official is producing results, why would voters want to change?
What do you think? The World welcomes letters. Email us at letters@theworldlink.com.
For most of us, when it comes the subject of jobs, we value experience and results. Company owners want employees who remain loyal and stay on the job. They also want employees who work hard, which in turn, benefits the company. When it comes to politics, though, too many of us want to throw those values out the window altogether. That’s what Oregon GOP Congressional candidate Art Robinson is asking voters to do this year — disregard longevity and producing results for the 4th District and replace Democrat Rep. Peter DeFazio with himself. Why do that, Mr.
Robinson? Since he was first elected to the House of Representatives in 1987, Mr. DeFazio has been producing results for the South Coast. It began with small things, like the Dean Creek elk viewing area east of Reedsport. Results gradually grew larger, as Mr. DeFazio gained experience and clout in the House and among his colleagues, both Democrats and Republicans. Afterward came other results — saving the rail line from demolition, a modern air traffic control tower in North Bend, funding for dredging South Coast sea ports, just to name a few.
They’re mostly infrastructure improvements; not sexy or showy, but exactly what we expect government to do. Government provides the nuts and bolts basics that allow private enterprise to grow and thrive. For a challenger like Mr. Robinson to enter the race with no similar experience or accomplishments, it’s obviously hard to compete. So, he makes use of generalized notions about career politicians and campaign financial hijinks. He plays to the popular notion that longevity equals probable cronyism and favoritism, while providing no concrete evidence that it exists.
Additionally, Mr. Robinson says that, if elected, he most likely wouldn’t serve more than a couple of terms in office. His rationale: No one should be in elected office more than that. We don’t agree. Length in office shouldn’t be a criticism lodged against a politician. Performance for constituents, or lack thereof, should be the primary criteria. We are not convinced that it is time to change our representation in District 4. Mr. DeFazio has been doing a fine job so far. We think he deserves yet another term, so long as he’s getting things done for the South Coast.
Cool heads, not fevered pitches October brings with it a yearly epidemic that, depending on its severity, kills between 3,000 to 50,000 Americans. It’s called the flu. Americans don’t panic; they get their flu shots, wash their hands thoroughly and frequently, and the flu season passes. Neither are Americans panicked over Ebola (and they shouldn’t be). Polls show the majority (56 percent) of the public believes the United States is prepared to handle Ebola. A minority (42 percent) says we are not prepared. The answer to preparedness comes down, my friends, to the local level. We have a federal system, which is to say that power is shared between the federal governments and the states. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not have authority over your state’s health system. It’s up to your governor, your mayor, and your state and local health officials to ensure that if Ebola comes to your town (highly unlikely), they are fully prepared. The CDC has a good track record in preventing and controlling infectious diseases. It was, however, overconfident in its assessment of preparedness of the nation’s local hospitals. The Texas Health Hospital in Presbyterian DONNA Dallas gives evidence of BRAZILE human error in an otherwise fine institution. In addition to Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan being sent home, though running an infectious fever, protocol was clearly breached in his treatment. Now, two nurses who cared for Duncan are quarantined with the illness, although with a much better chance at survival because it was caught early. The CDC cannot be everywhere at once, and local health officials must be vigilant in maintaining proper protocol. President Obama has ordered that the CDC have “SWAT teams” of health care advisers in place that will be sent within hours to any localities with symptomatic Ebola patients. Some are arguing we should shut down all travel with West Africa to contain the spread of Ebola. That’s a simple and easy response, but it is misguided and not a solution. Not only are screenings being done at airports in West Africa to ensure no one who is sick or has a fever gets on a flight, but these screenings are happening here, too. Additionally, shutting down travel with these nations would isolate them from medical aid and public health professionals, exactly the opposite of what we want to do when attacking a largely localized epidemic. With travel bans in place, the economies of affected West African nations would be crippled and governments would be at risk of failing. And other nations would be less forthcoming with reports about Ebola for fear of being isolated themselves, thus increasing the risk of the disease spreading. The past is instructive. When Americans were worried that avian influenza (the so-called “bird flu") would spread to the U.S., the Bush administration studied the idea of instituting travel bans. It found these bans would be ineffective and could interfere with the transport of health professionals and medical aid. The good news is that the battle with Ebola is one we can win. Local authorities must follow protocol and the international community must attack Ebola at its source in West Africa. Nigeria has stopped Ebola cold and reduced the fatality rate by 50 percent. Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen put it best, “A winnable battle should never be lost. Now is the time to respond to this crisis with the speed and resources needed.” Columnist
Letters to the Editor Bandon tax measure faulty As a member of the recently dissolved Bandon Water Resources Committee, I want the voters of Bandon to know that after 14 months and about 30 meetings, our initial task was to find a way to fund a new reservoir after a leak in the current dam was discovered. Subsequently, however, we did establish that Bandon does have a need for more money for the operation of this great city, as well as for operating a reservoir of its own. However, I urge the voters to vote no on Measure 6-150, as it is incorrectly written for the following reasons. 1. There is no end limit for this initiative, so a yes vote will very likely mean an increase every year for the rest of your lives. There is no reason to believe the city will ever increase it less than the maximum we allow them if this measure is approved. 2. We, the voters, do not yet know what a new working reservoir will cost and where that money could come from. 3. Albert Einstein is rumored to have once said, “The most powerful force in the universe is compound interest.” If your utility bill is currently $100 a month, in the 10th year you will be paying $162.89 a month for the exact same usage at a 5 percent compound interest. I propose we approve a rewritten initiative only after we understand the cost of operating this city, as well as the costs of building a new operating reservoir. Please vote no on ballot Measure 6-150 and inform the city council that the new rewritten initiative have a specific end date that we can all support. Bob Berry Bandon
Is it really that Sweet? With there now being more Sweet signs around the county than you can count, and radio spots that don’t come cheap, it makes a person think seriously about who is buying this election. I believe a politician only cares about looking good to the public, whereas a good candidate cares about the public good. At this point in time it appears to me, with all the money being spent on this commissioner race, that the public good is in
the rubbish heap, and favors are going to be owed. Can I say it any clearer? Ron Wiggins North Bend
Simpson statue will grace NB I would like to publicly thank the mayor of North Bend, Rich Wetherell, and the three city councilors — Barry Hayes, Bill Richardson and Timm Slater — for their majority vote to approve a statue of North Bend’s founder, Louis Simpson, as part of the redevelopment of Grant Circle. I fully trust, in the long run, that all North Benders, in particular, and the general at large, will come to appreciate the “new” Grant Circle as the realization of Simpson’s over 100-year-old idea of a grand circle and square (Lincoln) linked by a wide boulevard (Union Avenue) as the “spine” of the newly established city of North Bend. It is decidedly appropriate that we honor Mr. Simpson with a statue at the prime site of his idea. My personal hope is that the statue will be prominently sited on the bow of the “ship” (feature) and become an iconic fixture of the Bay Area. When Lincoln Square is redeveloped and, eventually, Union Avenue repaved and appropriately landscaped to link the Circle with the Square, then we will truly have something unique to the Oregon coast. These are Urban Renewal monies put to their best possible use, because they incorporate vision, and vision is what gives us all hope for a better tomorrow ... as Mr. Simpson well knew. Thank you again for those four votes. Steve Skinner North Bend
County: Don’t fight lawsuit I am writing concerning the wrongful death lawsuits that were reported in the Oct. 14 The World. I’m not taking sides as to whether the lawsuits are valid or not. It would require a lot of research to decide who is right from a legal perspective. The purpose of this letter is to send a simple message to the county commissioners. The message is short and simple: Do not fight this! Negotiate the best agreement you can and accept it. As a Coos County taxpayer, I
believe that fighting these suits would be the worst decision the commission could possibly make. As a Coos County voter, I guarantee that I will never again vote for a commissioner who does not agree. Harold Bailey North Bend
Sweet has too many conflicts Commissioner John Sweet is a nice man, but his association with several nonprofit, nongovernmental organizations seem to conflict with his position on the board of commissioners, which may have contributed to several bad decisions on his part. Recently, Commissioner Sweet voted to give the management of 84.3 miles of county roads over to the authority of the Coquille Indian Tribe, which eliminates the ability of the Roads Department to prioritize road improvements. It also gives the Tribe an edge in negotiating for other projects, such as the management of the Wagon Road Lands. County voters passed a resolution against allowing the Coquilles from managing these lands, but that did not stop Mr. Sweet from relinquishing his authority to the tribe as an elected official. Voters should note that John Sweet has a very close working relationship with the Coquilles, and he refuses to release his response to the tribal survey given to candidates during the last elections cycle. The Commissioner is a board member of the Coquille Tribal Community Fund, which is a nonprofit organization involved with several undertakings throughout the county. As a voting member of this board, John has the ability to direct the revenue stream of this organization, giving him the opportunity to choose who receives this funding. The ability to give away money to benefit his constituents is the first conflict. Mr. Sweet is also a member of the Family Ford Foundation, an organization that has worked closely on projects financially supported by the Coquille Tribal Community Fund, giving the commissioner a considerable amount of undue influence in the county. Many in the community believe John Sweet is using this influence to keep his position on the county board of commissioners, demonstrating a
second conflict of interest. In a work session absent of Commissioner Bob Main, John Sweet and Mellissa Cribbins voted in favor of the county joining the South Coast Community Foundation and then the two voted to make Sweet a board member of this group. Public tax dollars will fund the SCCF and all the money is discretionary where open meeting laws do not apply, which many see as an extreme conflict for Mr. Sweet. Commissioner candidate Don Gurney does not have these conflicts of interest, and therefore he has a clear conscience to vote on these issues. So, I am voting for Don Gurney for Coos County commissioner. Gary Haga North Bend
Setting the record straight Allen Gardner of Reedsport “mistakenly” attributed a quote to me about JFK in an 0ct. 20 Letter to the Editor. He needs to read a little more carefully. It was another person who had written how far we have sunk since JFK. All I did was respond to that letter in support of presidents who didn’t have military experience. After which I received an anonymous letter in the mail signed by a hammer and sickle. Sharon Ramirez North Bend

State Search for husband stumbles over scars on woman’s legs DEAR ABBY: I am a 21year-old woman from the Philippines. I have been insecure all my life. I know I have a pretty face, but I have a lot of scars on my legs from childhood. Because of this I am depressed, unhappy and insecure. I never wear shorts, skirts or DEAR dresses that show my legs. Do you think there is some guy somewhere who will love me despite my scars? I’m JEANNE PHILLIPS well aware that guys like sexy ladies with flawless skin. I hate the way my legs look, and I doubt I will ever find a husband. Please help me. — INSECURE LADY DEAR INSECURE: Please quit putting yourself down. Sometimes we women can be our most severe critics. If you stop looking for reasons men won’t like you and start concentrating on why they WILL, you may have better luck. Men like women who are fun to be around, who are kind, intelligent, honest and who don’t play games. A man who would reject you because of scars on your legs isn’t a person you need for a lasting, meaningful relationship. DEAR ABBY: My dog got my neighbor’s dog pregnant, and my neighbor kept it secret so she can sell the pups and keep all the money. I know this because her son told me so. My dog died this week and I really want one of the puppies. I can’t afford to buy one at $300. Does the family of the father of the pups have any rights? — MISSING MY DOGGIE D E A R M I SS I N G YO U R DOGGIE: Pets are supposed to be spayed or neutered to prevent this sort of thing from happening. I’m sorry for the loss of your beloved dog. If the pregnancy was unplanned, the owner of the female is not obligated to provide a puppy or compensation to the owner of the male. Perhaps out of compassion your neighbor will relent and give one to you. DEAR ABBY: I have been married for more than 15 years to a man who refuses to kiss me. We kissed briefly on our wedding day (long enough to take a photo) and have not done so since then. This past New Year’s Eve instead of the traditional kiss on the lips, he gave me a kiss on the head and a peck, akin to what you’d see between close friends. He says the human mouth has many germs in it. Abby, I dream of being kissed. I know the possibility of it happening during my marriage is close to nil. What can I do? I am wellgroomed and practice good oral hygiene. — DOING WITHOUT SOMETHING NICE IN WASHINGTON DEA R DO I N G W IT H OUT: It has been 15 years since you have been kissed and you’re writing me about it only NOW? Was your courtship this way, too? wither Relationships without affection. Your husband appears to either be germ phobic or passive aggressive. Unless he is willing to talk to a counselor about it, nothing will change. I hope he’ll do it before you meet someone else under the mistletoe or at the stroke of midnight.

out of us?” Lopez, his girlfriend and their Pomeranian recently moved from an apartment where the manager charged $50 a month in pet rent. Lopez, 38, called the cost “ludicrous and another way to gouge people for money.” Two years ago, pet rents were few and far between, said Tammy Kotula, a spokeswoman for Apartments.com, the Chicago-based online listing subscription service that tracks owners and renters. This year, 78 percent of renters who worked with the company and voluntarily filled out questionnaires said they paid a pet deposit, Kotula said. Of those, 29 percent also paid monthly pet rent. That’s up from 63 percent who paid pet deposits last year — 20 percent of whom also reported paying rent for their animal. In Leighty’s buildings in Oregon’s capital of Salem, dogs cost $20 a month and require a $500 dog deposit, while cats cost $10 monthly and need a $400 deposit. Her 400 properties started taking dogs last year. Though she was advised to charge pet rents to bring in more money, the additional pet deposit is used to cover damage caused by animals. “We are a higher-end luxury complex, and we want people to feel at home here, and having a pet is a large part of making people feel at home,” Leighty said.
Oregon 3rd in TV ad spending on ballot measures food companies, has spent $3 million while the Yes campaign, largely funded by organic food companies, spent $2.1 million. The sides have combined to run more than 7,000 ads in what has been — in terms of TV ad spending — the fifthcostliest ballot measure in the U.S. this election cycle. The money raised for and against Measure 92 is the prime reason why Oregon ($7.7 million) trails only California ($58.4 million) and Colorado ($16 million) in TV ad spending for ballot measures.

Ballot initiatives see millions in political spending NEWS
WASHINGTON (AP) — Voters may not know it, but the millions of dollars paying for ads on ballot measures they will consider next month come from large companies and national advocacy groups. Many of the messages are tailored to defend or expand the business interests of companies such as CocaCola, Monsanto and ExxonMobil, yet few have their names in the ads.
For example, $6.4 million in ads funded by Coloradans for Better Schools is backed by the Rhode Island-based Twin Rivers Casino in favor of a ballot initiative that would expand gambling to horse tracks. Opponents, calling themselves Don’t Turn Racetracks Into Casinos, are backed by a group of Colorado casinos and are helping fund $5.7 million in ads to defend their turf.

Now, as an entrepreneur focused on minority markets, he says he is ready to help Silicon Valley hire more blacks and Latinos to diversify the technology industry’s largely white and Asian workforce. Johnson believes his own Beverly Hills, California-based company could connect major technology employers with more African-American and Hispanic engineers if they call upon him. Magic Johnson Enterprises provides financing and consulting for businesses seeking to operate in cities with large minority populations. “We have to make sure the Apples and Googles of the world get together with others who know what they are doing and who can make a difference, whether it’s myself or somebody else,” Johnson told The Associated Press Wednesday. He made his remarks after appearing at a Silicon Valley conference put on by software maker Intuit Inc., one of many technology
companies that have recently released reports confirming their payrolls consist primarily of white and Asian men.
Race hinges on appeal to lower middle class RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The debate boiled in Lena’s Salon in Rio’s Cantagalo slum, as patrons argued about who should win Sunday’s presidential election. In one corner, owner Lucia Helena Silva was loudly arguing for President Dilma Rousseff and her Workers’ Party, waving a hot straightening iron. A customer, primping her carefully coiffed hair, was having none of it, insisting that centerright opposition candidate Aecio Neves would revitalize Brazil’s pallid economy. “No way!

Threat to break isolation over food
MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) — Dozens of people quarantined for Ebola monitoring in western Liberia are threatening to break out of an isolation because they have no food, the West African nation’s state radio reported Thursday. Forty-three people were put in quarantine after four people died of Ebola in Jennewende, a town in an impoverished corner of Grand Cape Mount County near the Sierra Leone border, the Liberia Broadcasting System said. It quoted those quarantined as saying that the U.N. World Food Program apparently has stopped providing food to people affected by Ebola in the area. A WFP press officer said he is looking into the claim.
Malpractice cap generates spending SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Bob Pack wanted to go after the HMO doctors for recklessly prescribing painkillers to a drug-abusing nanny who ran over his 10-year-old son and 7-year-old daughter as they were heading for ice cream one early fall evening in 2003. But under California’s 1970s-era medical malpractice law there was a $250,000 cap on pain and suffering. Instead of pursuing a case because of the cap, he settled so he could care for his wife, who lost the twins she was carrying in the crash. “It would have been too difficult to tackle a private trial,” he said. A November ballot initiative named after his children — Troy and Alana — seeks to raise the cap to $1.1 million. The campaign has prompted a ferocious fight between doctors and attorneys over the rights of injured patients with roughly $66 million raised so far in one of the state’s more expensive ballot initiatives.

CROWN POINT, Ind. (AP) — Investigators are using the cellphone records of an Indiana man already charged in the slayings of two women to pinpoint his movements after he told police he liked to check on the status of bodies he’d previously stashed after a fresh kill, authorities said. Illinois law enforcement officials told The Associated Press Wednesday that Darren Vann, 43, may have traveled to Chicago’s south suburbs between the time 19-yearold Afrikka Hardy’s body was discovered Friday in Hammond, Indiana, and Saturday when Vann was arrested in nearby Gary. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the investigation. Indiana police say Vann, a convicted sex offender, has confessed to killing Hardy and six women whose bodies were found over the weekend in abandoned houses in Gary. He has been charged with murder in the deaths of Hardy and 35-year-old Anith Jones, whose body was found Saturday in Gary. A judge ordered Vann be held in contempt of court Wednesday when the former Marine refused to even acknowledge his name during an initial court hearing in Hardy’s slaying. Magistrate Judge Kathleen Sullivan asked Vann if he understood the reason for the hearing but he just stared back silently. “Mr. Vann, are you choosing not to take part in this hearing?” Sullivan asked the shackled Vann, who was flanked by two Lake County Jail guards at the lockup in Crown Point.
Union Pacific 3Q profit chugs ahead 19 percent OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Union Pacific Corp. delivered a 19 percent increase in its third-quarter profit as the railroad hauled 7 percent more freight and increased rates. “We are optimistic about the remainder of the year,” CEO Jack Koraleski said. “Assuming the economy and weather cooperate, we are well positioned to finish up the year with record results.” The Omaha, Nebraskabased railroad said Thursday that it earned $1.37 billion, or $1.53 per share, for the quarter ended Sept. 30. That’s up from $1.15 billion, or $1.24 per share, a year ago. Union Pacific’s revenue climbed 11 percent to $6.18 billion from $5.57 billion. Analysts surveyed by FactSet expected Union Pacific to report earnings per share of $1.51 on revenue of $6.10 billion. Union Pacific reported the most growth in shipments of intermodal shipping containers, industrial products and agricultural goods. Coal was the only sector that didn’t grow in the quarter but after the decrease in coal demand in recent years, reporting flat coal volumes and a 2 percent increase in revenue was positive. Edward Jones analyst Logan Purk said Union Pacific again delivered impressive results while controlling costs well. “Union Pacific has shown they can do much more with the type of growth they’re seeing,” Purk said. Union Pacific shares rose $2.44, or 2.3 percent, to $109.30 in premarket trading about 45 minutes ahead of the market open. Its shares have risen 27 percent since the beginning of the year, while the Standard & Poor’s 500 index has risen slightly more than 4 percent. The stock has increased 38 percent in the last 12 months. Union Pacific operates 32,400 miles of track in 23 states from the Midwest to the West and Gulf coasts.
Probe: UNC academic fraud was ‘shadow curriculum’ CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) — A scandal involving bogus classes and inflated grades at the University of North Carolina was bigger than previously reported, encompassing about 1,500 athletes who got easy As and Bs over a span of nearly two decades, according to an investigation released Wednesday. At least nine university employees were fired or under disciplinary review, and the question now becomes what, if anything, the NCAA will do next. Penalties could range from fewer scholarships to vacated wins. Most of the athletes were football players or members of the school’s cherished The Associated Press basketball program, which won three of its five national Kenneth Wainstein, lead investigator into academic irregularities at the University of North Carolina at titles during the scandal Chapel Hill, holds a copy of his findings following a special joint meeting of the University of North Carolina (1993, 2005, 2009).

Girls’ journey renews fears of terror recruiting DENVER (AP) — The case of three teenage girls who possibly tried to join Islamic State militants poses vexing questions for U.S. officials about terror groups’ use of social media to recruit people inside the United States. A Colorado school official said the Denver-area girls — two sisters ages 17 and 15, and a 16-year-old friend — were victims of an online predator who encouraged them to travel overseas and eventually to Syria. Mia Bloom, a professor of
security studies at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell, said the girls’ story so far suggests how Islamic extremists have mastered social media to prey on younger and with women younger “Disney-like versions” of what it is like to live under Muslim leadership, complete with promises of husbands and homes. At least one of the girls was communicating with online who someone encouraged the three to trav-

el to Syria, said Tustin Amole, a spokeswoman for the Cherry Creek School District where the girls attend high school. Fellow students told school officials that the girls had been discussing travel plans over Twitter, Amole said. The girls were detained at an airport in Frankfurt, Germany, and sent home over the weekend. They were interviewed by the FBI and returned to their parents in the Denver suburb of Aurora. Those in the tight-knit east

African community where they live said the sisters are of Somali descent and their friend is of Sudanese descent. “There’s no indication they had been radicalized in a way that they wanted to fight for ISIS,” Amole said. A U.S. official said evidence gathered so far made it clear that the girls were headed to Syria, though the official said investigators were still trying to determine what sort of contacts they had in that country.

Air bag warning up to 7.8M vehicles DETROIT (AP) — The U.S. government is now urging owners of nearly 8 million cars and trucks to have the air bags repaired because of potential danger to drivers and passengers. But the effort is being complicated by confusing information and a malfunctioning website. The government’s auto safety agency says that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The inflators are made by Japanese parts supplier Takata Corp. Safety advocates say at least four people have died from the problem, which they claim could affect more than 20 million cars nationwide. On Wednesday, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added 3.1 million vehicles to an initial warning covering 4.7 million cars and SUVs. Car owners might have difficulty determining if their vehicle is equipped with the potentially dangerous air bags. The warning covers certain models made by BMW, Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Mazda, Honda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru and Toyota. Most of the 7.8 million vehicles are subject to existing recalls during the past two years. But manufacturers have limited many of the recalls to high-humidity areas, excluding cars and trucks in states to the north. NHTSA says owners in Florida, Puerto Rico, Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Hawaii and “limited areas near the Gulf of Mexico in Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and Louisiana” should pay special attention to the warning

Should the city eventually remove the gate, Leberti and his neighbors want the city to properly develop the street, including instituting measures that would reduce speeds where all the driveways converge.

While the fire department’s response time may have increased, residents of 8th Street have noted the impact the gate has on crime, including allowing police to apprehend a suspect of a hitand-run. The neighbors had contemplated a structure at the berm in 2004, going as far as applying for a right-of-way use permit, but their request was denied because the city said the road could be a

Once the berm was removed, residents saw an immediate effect on their well-being with activity increasing as a result of the road being opened up. “We lived with the road being a mess before 2004, and traffic just got worse and worse,” Lou Leberti said. “We’ve had something like six accidents and a dog killed.” Contributing to the concerns of neighbors were the results of the speed assessment done by the city.

U.S. Highway 101 traffic was being detoured onto East Bay Drive. Service workers had trouble detouring traffic through the night. Drivers were stopping to gaze at the scene, asking questions and sometimes trying to drive right through the blocked-off area on the north side of the bridge. ODOT reported damage to a work enclosure that is part of a five-year, $23 million corrosion abatement project on the northern concrete arches of the structure. ODOT public information officer Dan Latham said a bridge inspector was on scene late Wednesday night to make an assessment. The bridge will remain closed until inspectors can make a final determination. Early Thursday morning North Bend School District bus routes were put on

bring his business acumen to the Coos Bay City Council as he vies for its vacant seat as another write-in candidate. “As a business owner in the community, I have the same concerns about the economic health of our community,” Pettit said. “I hear a lot about what’s going on because we spend a lot of time around the coffee machine talking about all the issues.” While he has had his own struggles, they have lent him an appreciation of the uphill battle the city council has, given the budget constraints. “The department heads have done an excellent job of squeezing blood out of a Pettit said. turnip,” “Obviously, we’ve raised the water bills to take care of the sewage system, and if you look at the smaller towns in Montana and South Dakota where they’ve had the oil boom, they’ve taken similar steps. I think we’re getting ahead of the curve because our sewer system is woefully inadequate.” With the city potentially seeing an influx in financial resources, Pettit is concerned with the plans for economic growth within the city and wants to see the funds used for the right purpose. “There’s going to be a large influx of outside money if LNG goes through,” Pettit said. “We can end up with a hodgepodge of building structures so if the money comes, we should plan ahead because it will all happen so fast. I don’t see a lot of work being done in that area and it must be done to ensure our community’s development.” While Pettit’s business acumen, which has taken him from South America to the
Pacific Rim, would be a valuable resource for the economic woes, his talents extend to the other problems the city is facing as well. “He’s not a single-issue kind of guy,” Legislative Action Team Chair Eric Farm said. “Whether it’s wastewater, education or just the streets, we’ve got a myriad of issues that he can be a major asset in solving the problem.” Having served alongside Pettit on the Legislative Action Team, which monitored business-friendly and business-averse legislature in Salem, Farm knows Pettit will dedicate himself to attacking the issues Coos Bay residents care about. “Al has strong analytic abilities and is able to sort and get to the problem in a logical fashion,” Farm said. “He’s got a genuine care for the community, and he will research an issue and find the facts and data.” With his activity as a member of the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce and co-chair of the structure committee, he’s already developed a list of concerns the city should be focusing on. Pettit is particularly focused on the shrinking tax base as a result of an aging populace, the growing social problems that distinguish Coos County as one of the worst in Oregon and businesses sinking, both literally and figuratively. As a business owner vested in the well-being of the community, Pettit hopes he can leave a positive impact, not just on the current issues that plague the city, but also on future development. “I’m concerned with how we’re viewed, the number of young people leaving the area and the social problems that stem from economic growth,” Pettit said.“In that same light, I want to be able to promote jobs and a community that can sustain a family and future generations.”

World Mom of suspect: I cry for victims, not son OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — The mother of the man accused of killing a soldier at Ottawa’s war memorial then storming Parliament before being shot dead says she is crying for the victims of the shooting, not her son. In a brief and tear-filled telephone interview with The Associated Press Thursday, Susan Bibeau said she did not know what to say to those hurt in the attack. “Can you ever explain something like this?” she said. “We are sorry.” Investigators offered little information about the gunman in Ottawa, identified as 32-year-old petty criminal Michael Zehaf-Bibeau. Canadian police conceded Thursday that Zehaf-Bibeau was the lone gunman, the second attack in three days in what the prime minister described as terrorism. Bibeau she was devastated for the victims of the attack. “If I’m crying it’s for the people,” she said, struggling to hold back tears. “Not for my son.” Bideau and her husband had earlier sent the AP a lengthy email expressing horror and sadness at what happened. “I am mad at my son,” the email said, explaining that he seemed lost “and did not fit in.” “I his mother spoke with him last week over lunch, I had not seen him for over five years before that,” the email said. “So I have very little insight to offer.” The heart of the capital city of Ottawa had been in lockdown after Wednesday’s attack, with fears that other gunmen might be on the loose. Ottawa police Constable Marc Soucy confirmed to The Associated Press Thursday that police are satisfied there was one attacker. Ottawa police Chief Charles Bordeleau told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. that “there is no longer a threat to public safety.” The two attacks stunned Canadians and raised concerns their country was being targeted for reprisals for joining the U.S.-led air campaign against the extremist Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria. Government officials credited 58-year-old Parliament sergeant-at-arms Kevin Vickers with shooting the attacker just outside the MPs’ caucus rooms.
Activists: Syria airstrikes toll over 500 MURSITPINAR, Turkey (AP) — U.S.-led coalition airstrikes on Syria have killed more than 500 people, mainly Islamic militants, since they began last month, activists said Thursday, as fighting flared in the northern Syrian border town of Kobani. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which relies on a network of activists on the ground, said 553 people have been killed since the airstrikes began on Sept. 23, including 32 civilians. The civilians included six children and five women.

Gunmen kill 8 Shiite Muslims in Pakistan QUETTA, Pakistan (AP) — Four gunmen attacked a minibus carrying Shiite Muslims in southwestern Pakistan on Thursday, killing eight of them, police said. The Shiites from the minority Hazara community were targeted outside a vegetable market on the outskirts of Quetta city, operations police chief Aitzaz Goraya said. The four gunmen riding two motorcycles killed six men in the minibus and chased another two down before shooting them dead, he said. Another two people were wounded. No one has claimed responsibility, and the officer said it was not clear who carried out the attack. Suspicion is likely to fall on Sunni extremists, who have often targeted Shiites in the past. Previous attacks have been claimed by the Sunni militant groups Lashkar-eJhangvi and the Pakistani Taliban. The Pakistani Taliban have been on the run since the launch of a Pakistani military offensive in their last remaining safe havens in North Waziristan, a tribal region near Afghan border.

Washington 3 states deny gay unions despite appellate rulings WASHINGTON (AP) — The writing is on the wall for gay marriage bans in Kansas, Montana and South Carolina after federal appeals courts that oversee those states have made clear that keeping gay and lesbian couples from marrying is unconstitutional. But officials in the three states are refusing to allow same-sex couples to obtain marriage licenses without a court order directing them to do so. It could be another month or more before the matter is settled. In a political campaign debate Monday, Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback vowed to defend his state’s constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman.A federal court hearing is scheduled for Friday. There seems little doubt that U.S. District Judge
Daniel Crabtree ultimately will set aside the state’s gay marriage ban. That’s because the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, encompassing Kansas and five other states, has said a state may not deny a marriage license to two people of the same sex. “He is absolutely bound and has to make that decision,” said Sarah Warbelow, legal director of the Human Rights Campaign. The same requirement holds true for federal judges who are hearing same-sex marriage lawsuits in Montana and South Carolina. John Eastman, chairman of the anti-gay marriage National Organization for Marriage, agreed with Warbelow that federal judges almost certainly will rule to allow same-sex marriages. But Eastman urged state officials to continue to put
up a legal fight until the Supreme Court decides the issue one way or the other. “Until the Supreme Court decides it, this remains a viable option,” Eastman said. State officials in Colorado, North Carolina and West Virginia chose a different path. They helped speed the process for legalizing gay marriage in their states when they announced they would no longer defend their state laws in the aftermath of the appeals court rulings. The latest wave of court rulings that has made samesex marriage legal in 32 states and the District of Columbia began with the unexpected decision by the Supreme Court on Oct. 6 to reject appeals by five states hoping to keep their bans in place. The high court’s refusal to step in affected appeals
courts in Chicago, Denver and Richmond, Virginia, which in turn oversee 11 states that did not previously allow same-sex couples to marry. Since the justices’ terse order, same-sex couples have been able to marry in nine of those 11 states, with Wyoming on Tuesday becoming the latest to permit it. Only Kansas and South Carolina have not followed suit. A day after the Supreme Court action, the federal appeals court in San Francisco struck down gay marriage bans in Idaho and Nevada in a ruling that also appeared to apply to Alaska, Arizona and Montana. Since then, federal judges in Alaska and Arizona quickly ruled on pending marriage lawsuits. But in Montana, a federal judge has set a hearing in a marriage challenge for Nov. 20.

Former Blackwater Worldwide security guard Dustin Heard leaves federal court in Washington on Jan. 6, 2009. A jury returned guilty verdicts for Heard and three other former Blackwater guards charged in Iraq shootings.
Blackwater guards found guilty in Iraq shootings WASHINGTON (AP) — Four former Blackwater security guards were convicted Wednesday in the 2007 shootings of more than 30 Iraqis in Baghdad, an incident that inflamed anti-American sentiment around the globe and was denounced by critics as an illustration of a war gone horribly wrong. The men claimed selfdefense, but federal prosecutors argued that they had shown “a grave indifference” to the carnage their actions would cause. All four were ordered immediately to jail. Their lawyers are likely to file appeals; one said quickly that he would. If those and other motions should fail, the judge would then set a sentencing date. The federal jury found Nicholas Slatten guilty of first-degree murder, the most serious charge in a multi-count indictment. The three other guards — Paul Slough, Evan Liberty and Dustin Heard — were found guilty of multiple counts of voluntary manslaughter, attempted manslaughter and gun violations. The outcome after a summer-long trial and weeks of jury deliberation appeared to stun the defense.
FALLING PRICES
David Schertler, a lawyer for Heard, said, “The verdict is wrong, it’s incomprehensible. We’re devastated. We’re going to fight it every step of the way. We still think we’re going to win.” However, one of those struck by gunfire in the shootings, Hassan Jabir, said in Baghdad that “at last we are hearing good news where justice has been achieved and Blackwater will receive their punishment.” He said there are two bullets still inside his body, one in his hand and one in his back, which doctors have said it would be very risky to remove. The shootings on Sept. 16, 2007, caused an international uproar over the role of defense contractors in urban warfare. The State Department had hired Blackwater to protect American diplomats in Baghdad, the Iraqi capital, and elsewhere in the country. Blackwater convoys of four heavily armored vehicles operated in risky environments where car bombs and attacks by insurgents were common. On the murder charge, Slatten could face a maximum penalty of life in prison. The other three defendants could face decades behind bars.

Civil War 2014: North Bend at Marshfield, 7 p.m. Friday

North Bend at Marshfield Time: 7 p.m. Radio: KMHS (91.3 FM) and K-Light (98.7 FM) Outlook: The most anticipated Civil War in years should draw a huge crowd to Pete Susick Stadium as the Bulldogs and Pirates face off with a league title on the line for the first time since 1990, back when both were part of the Midwestern League. While the Bulldogs have won all their games by comfortable margins, Marshfield won its past two games, against Siuslaw and South Umpqua, each by a single point. To win Friday night, Marshfield will need to at least contain North Bend’s explosive attack, which averages nearly 50 points a game. The Pirates also will need to put up points of their own behind quarterback Andrew Sharp and running backs Rylee Trendell and Matt McCallister. The winner will have a bye into the first round of the playoffs and the loser will have a home game in the Class 4A play-in round next week.
Brookings-Harbor at Siuslaw Time: 7 p.m. Radio: KCST (106.9 FM) and KURY (95.3 FM) Outlook: Even though they started the league season with three straight losses, Siuslaw still is in good shape for an at-large spot in the Class 4A play-in round. They will need a win over the Bruins to keep their power ranking high (they currently sit at No. 16). After close losses to both South Umpqua and Marshfield, the Vikings just got their first league win last week by pounding Douglas, the same team Brookings-Harbor beat for its only league win.

Coquille at Glide Time: 7 p.m. Radio: No local radio Outlook: The Red Devils have been on a roll since the league season started. They need to clear one more hurdle this week to set up a game at Harrisburg next week for the league title. Coquille already clinched a spot in the Class 3A playoffs and is hoping to improve their power ranking. The Red Devils have the sixth-highest scoring offense in Class 3A behind their run-based Wing-T attack. One big challenge they have this week is avoiding looking past the Wildcats. Another might be handling a sloppy field and rainy conditions, depending on the weather Friday night.

Overall W L 7 0 4 3 4 3 3 3 3 4 0 7
Bandon at Reedsport Time: 7 p.m. Radio: No local radio Outlook: The Tigers and Braves battle in a contrast of styles as both try to stay alive in the playoff chase. Bandon employs its wide-open passing attack with quarterback Quentin Coomer, who has had several touchdown passes in multiple games this season and threw for more than 400 yards last week in a loss to Toledo. Reedsport, meanwhile, primarily uses a running attack, though the Braves would like to pass the ball more. As with the other games on the South Coast, the weather could have a significant impact on the game, both for Bandon trying to throw the ball and for Reedsport trying to run it — the Braves lost five fumbles during their win over Waldport last week. With a win, Reedsport likely will set up a showdown with Myrtle Point next week with Myrtle Point for the league’s third playoff spot. Bandon, meanwhile, hopes to win Friday and have the Braves beat Myrtle Point, forcing a threeway tie. The Tigers finish against Gold Beach.
Waldport at Myrtle Point Time: 7 p.m. Radio: KSHR (97.3 FM) Outlook: The Bobcats were shut out last week by Gold Beach, but shouldn’t have that problem Friday when they face a Waldport team that the Bobcats can relate to. The Irish usually only dress about 15 players, which is the situation the Bobcats were in when Marty Stallard took over as coach three years ago.
Gold Beach at Toledo Time: 7 p.m. Radio: KGBR (92.7 FM) Outlook: The Panthers and Boomers meet for the league title at Toledo, with the newcomers to the league trying to wrestle the title away from Gold Beach, which has won several league crowns in a row. The game should be a physical battle, with the tough Gold Beach defense trying to contain Toledo’s talented trio of quarterback Jackson Cross, running back Kyle Otis and receiver Ryan Otis, who have torn up Reedsport, Myrtle Point and Bandon the past three weeks.

If Powers does not win Friday, the Cruisers will be on the road next week against the second-place team from the East division for a spot in the Class 1A playoffs.

Marshfield quarterback Andrew Sharp runs the ball in practice Wednesday afternoon as the Pirates prepare for their Friday night game against North Bend.
Sharp shines in QB role for Pirates BY GEORGE ARTSITAS The World
COOS BAY — In the middle of Mr. Scriven’s seventh period contemporary and foreign issues class, Andrew Sharp made some news of his own. Marshfield offensive coordinator Floyd Montiel beckoned the senior out of class (once he finished his work, of course), opting to speak in private. Montiel needed to brief Sharp without the hoopla: He was going to start Week 3 against Newport in place of injured quarterback Jake Miles. Plain and simple. Then he sent Sharp back to class. How do you focus on contemporary and foreign issues after getting news like that? “I kept trying to wipe (my smile) off,” Sharp said. “But I just couldn’t.” Five straight Marshfield wins later, Sharp has returned the favor, giving the rest of the Pirates reason for a perma-grin of their own. The Pirates are 6-1 this year, 4-0 in the Far West League, guaranteed their first postseason game since 2009, and would be Far West
League champions and have a bye into the first round of the playoffs with a Civil War victory against North Bend on Friday. It would take a lot to upset North Bend, but Sharp is used to surprising. “With his lack of experience, his ability to perform at the quarterback position is hard to believe, to be honest with you,” Marshfield’s head coach Josh Line said. Before filling in for Miles against Sutherlin in Week 2, Sharp hadn’t played quarterback since eighth grade. “When you watch him on film, you’re thinking ‘This guy looks like a kid who’s been playing quarterback for a couple years, maybe three.’ Then you tell people that that’s it; he’s been playing four or five games. That’s pretty impressive. To play at the varsity level against the competition he’s played against and to function as well as he has, I’m really excited about him.” All of this for a kid that didn’t have a starting spot on either side of the ball to start the season. Sure, Sharp returned kickoffs — he had a touchdown in the season opener against Cottage Grove — but he was bouncing around
from tailback to receiver on offense and all over the place on defense. Marshfield knew they had an athlete in Sharp, they just didn’t know how to maximize him. Then the back injury that has plagued Miles since 2013 flared up in the 20-6 loss to Sutherlin, and in the five Sharp starts since, he has 15 total touchdowns and the Pirates are undefeated. “It has been a true blessing how well he has done without playing the position since eighth grade,” Montiel said. “He is a great dual-threat guy. We knew he could run, but his throwing accuracy and strength have been bonuses. His versatility gives us options on the ground and in the air. He gets better each week and is really beginning to understand the nuances of the position.” Sharp has a perfect coach in Line to have shepherded him into the quarterback position. Line himself was a quarterback at Marshfield in 1993, an “oddball” at 6-foot-2, 200-ish pound kid with fleet feet. “I think me and him have a lot in common,” Line said. SEE SHARP | B3
Matthews honors Hawaiian heritage BY GEORGE ARTSITAS The World
NORTH BEND — Every game, before Drew Matthews hits the field as the AK-47 in North Bend’s weapons closet, he has a ritual. Drew slinks up his tights over a femur-length tattoo of shark teeth down his left calf, a permanent reminder of his Hawaiian heritage. Then he writes ‘Papa’ on both wrists for the man who made that culture essential in his life. “(I) play every game for him,” Drew said. “The tattoo right now is just to support my culture, show I am a part of it. “I always say a prayer to myself before the game, and it’s towards him.” The Bulldog senior’s grandfather, Halford Lani Matthews, passed away last fall, and with him gone, Drew has football, a tattoo, and Hawaiian culture to remember him by. The Matthews family’s aumakua — the God their Hawaiian ancestors prayed to — is the shark, so Drew chose a tattoo of 44 triangles, two rows of 22, on the outside of his calf, going from his ankle to knee on his right leg. “His grandparents were very instrumental,” Drew’s dad, Knute

Although Drew was born in North Bend, his father was born in Hawaii and the family regularly visits Makaha on the island of Oahu. Ho’omanawanui Matthews, said. “He really got to experience the culture and learn about his Hawaiian heritage.” Drew used to take month-long trips to Oahu to go visit his grand-
parents during summers and three week-long trips in the winters for eight years before his grandparents moved to Mexico in 2011. “Ka’anohi (Drew’s middle name, which means ‘heavenly

But I also was delighted to hear multiple times how thrilled they are for both of the Bay Area’s teams to be playing at a high level — this is the first time they have met for the league title since 1990, when Marshfield’s quarterback was Mark Helfrich. “It’s cool to see the two teams playing for the league title,” Marshfield junior Justin Cooper said. “We can take a lot of pride in the Bay Area.” SEE GUNTHER | B4

Speedgolf world championships return to resort this weekend BY JOHN GUNTHER The World
BANDON — Both past champions and a trio of elite runners will be in the field when the Speedgolf World Championships returns to Bandon Dunes Golf Resort this weekend. The 28 golfers in the Pro/Elite Division compete Saturday and Sunday, battling for a total purse of $50,000. They will be joined Sunday by 35 additional players competing in amateur divisions. The public is welcome to watch any or all of the competition at the resort. As with the previous two editions of the event, the world championships includes 18 holes at Old Macdonald on Saturday and 18 more at Bandon Dunes on Sunday. Speedgolf combines the sports of running and golf. The players race around the course trying to post the best score in the shortest possible time. The world record was set in 2005 at Jackson Park Golf Course in Chicago by Christopher Smith, one of the founders of Speedgolf International, which puts on the championship. Smith a teaching pro at Pumpkin Ridge who is in the field By Lou Sennick, The World this week, completed the Chicago Four time Olympian Bernard Lagat celebrates after finishing on the 18th course in 44 minutes and 6 seconds green at Old MacDonald during the Speedgolf World Championships while shooting 65 for a total score of last year.

MATTHEWS From Page B1 On trips to Hawaii, Drew learned how to hula. Halford taught ukulele classes, so he picked it up one summer. He inevitably fell in love with surfing. All the things a mainlander equates with the islands. But Halford never let him forget one thing. “Hawaiians are known for being able to play football,” Drew said, which makes him as Hawaiian as they come. The past two seasons, he’s been a first team all-league defensive back and last year added first-team honors at wide receiver. On a state-
wide level, he was named a second team all-state receiver and honorable mention at defensive back in 2013. “Hawaiians are a little crazy when it comes to football,” Knute said. “I think it’s a cultural thing. Drew never plays that way, it’s different here. Skipped a generation.” Halford had credibility. He played in high school and semi-pro for Los Angeles Rams farm team in the mid60s. Halford used to tell Drew stories about how tough the Hawaiian kids were at the University of Hawaii and how they intimidated other teams. But there were other lessons, like to have dignity and
never let anyone step on you, he tried to impart on Drew. Stuff that transcended the gridiron. And Halford always wanted Drew to perpetuate his Hawaiian heritage onto the field. “He always talked about being physical and to play like a Hawaiian warrior,” Knute said. Drew is a prototypical three-sport athlete, playing guard on the basketball team as well as being a key cog in North Bend’s boys track and field state championship when he tried that sport for the first time last spring. “Overall, my life revolves around sports and I’m doing them 24/7,” Drew said. “I

Dunes courses were set during last year’s world championships. Rob Hogan of Ireland set the record on Old Macdonald with a score of 77 in 39:31 (also the running record) on the way to winning the championship. Eri Crum of Boise, Idaho, set the Bandon Dunes record with a score of 73 in 44:31. The low golf score speedgolf records for both courses is 72. That’s what Kris Moe shot at Old Macdonald in 2012 and Smith and Jacob Bowden both shot at Bandon Dunes last year. The time record at Bandon Dunes was set by Arno Lindsberger in 2012, when he played the course with just a 6-iron in 41:16. The Pro/Elite competition begins at 8 a.m. both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday’s round will be split into two waves, with the second group, including the top golfers, starting at 11 a.m. The golfers tee off at intervals seven or eight minutes apart. Olympic medalist Nick Willis of New Zealand will be in the field for the second straight year. Willis won the silver medal for the 1,500 at the 2008 Olympics. Bernard Lagat, another Olympian who competed last year, wasn’t able to return. But the field does include 2010 NCAA 1,500-meter champion Michael McLain of Colorado and Karl Meltzer of Sandy, Utah, a professional ultramarathoner.
always make sure I have time for sports in the sense of if I need to go get a few shots up in basketball, I’ll make that my priority. Or if I need to go lift and catch some balls for football, I’ll do that before I do anything else.” While Hawaiians pride themselves on toughness and grit, Drew is more Marcus Mariota, less Olin Kreutz. “Drew is more of a speed guy rather than the physical type,” Knute said. Speed, physical, whatever it is, it has been effective. So far this year, Drew has 39 receptions for 944 yards and 12 touchdowns. As defensive back, Drew has six interceptions and two pick-sixes in seven games. He also has a touchdown on a punt return despite teams either not reaching or kicking away from him. North Bend head coach Gray Prince lauds Drew as a role model, respecting that he helps out with the South Coast Youth Football League and volunteers to set up for games and referee. “Drew is a young man of exceptional character,” said Prince, who started as the Bulldogs head coach when Drew was a freshman. “He is a great student, works hard in the classroom and on the field. He is very humble about his success and always defers much of the credit to his teammates.” Maybe it’s the Hawaiian influence. Even though the last time the family went to Hawaii was last June to spread Halford’s ashes, Knute still tries to proliferate the island culture around the house. Hawaiian bowls, tools and trinkets litter the house. And the residence has ukeleles.
The tournament also will have its biggest international field to date, with golfers from several different countries. They include players who won qualifying tournaments in Sweden (Tony Dyring), Japan (Joe Matsui) and Australia (Mitchell Williamson). Alexander Gylfason from Iceland also is competing. Many others who competed the past two years will be in Bandon this week, including 2012 champion Chris Walker, of Texas, who won the tournament shortly after finishing his college career at Notre Dame. Among the others to watch are Crum, who finished second last year, and Matt Dehlin of West Linn, who was third in 2013 and won both the 2014 Oregon Speedgolf Open and the 2014 Salem Speedgolf Classic, the latter with an impressive score of 72 in 40 minutes and 15 seconds. And the field includes the top eight finishers from the Eastern Speedgolf Championship, including Hogan, who won the title, and Allan Phillips of San Antonio, who finished second. The first players in the amateur division are scheduled to tee off at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, with a new 9-hole junior division set to start at 2:15 p.m. The amateurs range in age from 9year-old Alex Lynch to 65-year-old Bill McFadden, and also includes several women.

Royals pull even in Series
From Page B1
Kansas City uses five-run outburst in sixth inning to pull away from Giants in Game 2 ■
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The first showdown of brilliant bullpens went to the Kansas City Royals. After Kansas City took the lead with a five-run sixth inning, the trio of Kelvin Herrera, Wade Davis and All-Star closer Greg Holland shut down the hot-hitting San Francisco Giants. Kansas City cruised from there to a 7-2 victory Wednesday night, evening the World Series at a game apiece as it shifts to the Bay Area for the next three games. “It’s a huge luxury for me,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “After the sixth inning, my thinking is done. I don’t have to mix and match.” Nope, just call on the gas. Herrera’s blistering 101-mph fastballs kept the free-swinging Giants on their heels, and Davis breezed through a perfect eighth inning with his own heat. The hard-throwing Holland worked around a single in the ninth, punctuating the victory by punching the air. “We’ve got a pretty good recipe for success with Herrera, Davis and Holland,” Yost said. Meanwhile, the San Francisco bullpen that had the fifth-best ERA in the majors and had tossed 12 2-3 scoreless innings in its last four games was lit up like the crown-shaped scoreboard in center field. With the game tied 2-all and Giants starter Jake Peavy in trouble in the sixth, manager Bruce Bochy summoned reliever Jean Marchi to face Billy Butler. The big designated hitter responded with a hard single to left field, giving the Royals a 3-2 lead and igniting a crowd that had been waiting since a 7-1 loss in Game 1 for something to get excited bout. Playing the matchups, Bochy called on Javier Lopez to face Alex Gordon, and he did his job. The slumping Gordon flied out to left field for the first out of the inning. “Those are the matchups we were trying to get,” Bochy said.
The Associated Press
Kansas City’s Terrance Gore (0) and Eric Hosmer celebrate after scoring on a double by Salvador Perez during the sixth inning Wednesday. Bochy ambled out to the mound once more, this time asking for Hunter Strickland. This time, the move backfired — Salvador Perez ripped a two-run double into the gap in left field, and Omar Infante sent a pitch soaring into the bullpen in left field to make it 7-2. “I let the team down,” said Strickland, who has allowed five postseason homers after giving up three during the regular season — all at Double-A. He also let his emotions get the better of him. Infante was rounding the bases as Perez headed for home, and Strickland got into a shouting match with the Royals’ big catcher. Players from both benches streamed onto the field, and a few of the Royals’ relievers ran in from the outfield bullpen, before order was restored. “He started to look at me, so I asked him like, ‘Hey, why you look at me?”’ Perez said. “So he was telling me, ‘Get out of here, whatever.’ So I don’t know. ‘You don’t have to treat me like that. Look at Omar. Omar hit a bomb. I didn’t hit a bomb. I hit a double.”’ Regardless, one thing had become clear: The World Series suddenly had some life. Now it shifts to AT&T Park, a quirky ballpark that very few
Royals have played in. Jeremy Guthrie will be on the mound for them in Game 3 on Friday night, while veteran Tim Hudson makes the first World Series start of his 16-year big league career for San Francisco. “We battled and played well. We hit the ball hard,” Peavy said. “We had good at-bats. I thought we battled. That sixth inning, it was a 2-2 game. Unfortunately, they got going.” And with the combination of hard-throwing rookie Yordano Ventura, who allowed two runs while pitching into the sixth inning, and the Royals’ lockdown bullpen, that was enough. “With their pitching and our pitching, and the way both teams play, we’re going to have a fight, I think, every game,” Bochy said. Figuratively speaking, of course. Even if the teams nearly came to blows Wednesday night. “Every one of us has been roughed up before,” said Giants reliever Jeremy Affeldt, who once pitched for Kansas City. “And we’ve all been part of something that’s gotten out of hand. That’s what we signed up for. That’s our job. We go out there and do good, we still have a short memory. “It’s over,” he added. “We move on.”
The Pirate coach, who would go on to play fullback at the University of Oregon, was used more as a mobile quarterback, an oddity back then. What Line used to do was a lot of trap option to utilize his speed and bootlegs to get him in space. As a mobile quarterback, he would’ve loved to play in the spread offense, but he’ll have to do it through Sharp now. “A lot what we did with myself, we do with him,” Line said. “He’s a smarter kid and has a better grasp of the game of football than I did, and he’s probably a better leader than I was.” To start, Sharp did have jitters. The first Friday night against Newport, Sharp was extremely nervous, but confident. He aired his first pass over Vincent Tine’s head, then told himself he was fine and “ready to go now.” Marshfield went on to win that game 29-25, matching the Pirates’ 2013 win total at two through just three games. Over the next two weeks, Sharp and the Pirates dominated Brookings-Harbor and Douglas by a combined 85-7. Then the Pirates took out Siuslaw and South Umpqua by one point in consecutive weeks — the former in overtime on a walkoff two-point conversion – guaranteeing Marshfield a home postseason game for the first time in five years. In his five-plus games, Sharp has completed 67 of 94 passes for 668 yards and a 10-to-3 touchdown-to-interception ratio. He also has five rushing touchdowns and 167 yards on the ground this year. “Sharp has taken the ball and run with it,” Line said, pun not intended. “He’s probably been one of the strongest leaders we’ve had at this school in many years.” Sharp’s arm strength isn’t surprising — he’s also the starting shortstop on the baseball team. He is completing over 71 percent of his passes, many downfield. His leadership also wasn’t a surprise. “It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to be a leader and I feel I’m very fit for this role,” Sharp said. “I got my chance I made the best of it.” Sharp understands the concept of leading by example. It starts with getting his sisters up in the morning and to school on time. Little things like doing homework so his grades don’t plummet. As a captain last spring, he suf-
fered through nearly a mile-long walk in red high heels to support domestic violence with the rest of the Marshfield leaders, something Sharp still remembers fondly. On the field, intangibles are key for a quarterback, and Sharp has them. The kids are drawn to him. He has undeniable charisma and stays positive, but with discretion. Whenever lineman get barked at by their coaches, Sharp will offer words of encouragement to lift their spirits. But sometimes Sharp will wait, so his consoling isn’t to close to the moment, but a couple plays later, making sure he doesn’t draw even more embarrassment to a teammate. “He always finds the guys that are hurting a little,” Line said. “He finds those guys and he picks them back up, and if Andrew Sharp says ‘Hey, You’re OK,’ That resonates with everyone on our team. If it was some other guy, it might not, but Andrew commands respect from everybody on this team.” Other than being the unquestioned leader of the Marshfield baseball and football programs, Sharp is also an energy provider off the bench for the Pirates basketball team. The only thing that surprises basketball head coach Doug Miles is that Sharp was able to find success so quickly in what he considers the toughest position in sports to play. Otherwise, leadership is just par for the course for Sharp. “I know the type of kid that Andrew is,” Miles said. “He leads by example. He works harder than his teammates and he is not afraid to do anything. “He has a unique ability to raise the effort and confidence level of his teammates without having to raise his voice or get down on kids. In basketball he does the same thing.” So when he suits up for the biggest game of his life on Friday, he’ll do what he usually does. He’ll slip a white sleeve on his right arm. He’ll have his green domestic violence bracelet saying “Hope, Faith and Courage” tucked under his sock (he wore it so often, it broke). Then he’ll go try and be the same leader he’s been the past five weeks, hopefully with the same end result. He’d like to “shock everyone” and win the Far West League on Friday, but as for himself, personal goals and team success are one and the same. “I haven’t really set any goals as a QB other then to lead my team as far as they are willing to let me lead them,” Sharp said. “And that’s hopefully to state.”

Portland’s Joel Freeland has a shot blocked by Wesley Johnson of the Los Angeles Lakers during their preseason game Wednesday.
Lakers beat Blazers in preseason ONTARIO, Calif. (AP) — Julius Randle already feels the game slowing down after seven preseason games with the Los Angeles Lakers, and the rookie power forward demonstrated his comfort in an impressive finish to their latest preseason game. Randle scored 11 of his 17 points in the fourth quarter, and Jeremy Lin added 13 points in the Lakers’ 94-86 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday night. Wayne Ellington and Wesley Johnson scored 11 points apiece for the Lakers (3-4), who played a solid defensive game and surged in the fourth quarter despite 18 turnovers. Los Angeles won without Kobe Bryant, who sat out to rest. Randle grabbed eight rebounds and put on an impressive display in the final minutes, hitting mid-range jumpers and aggressively running the court. Although Bryant and coach Byron Scott are constantly critiquing the rookie, they see the results in his play. “Every game, I feel more comfortable,” Randle said. “It’s the same looks, the same everything. I’m just knocking them down. Obviously I’m just taking advantage of opportunities.” Randle also attempted several coastto-coast drives, showing off the hidden

I want to be Kobe.”’ C.J. McCollum scored 17 points and Meyers Leonard added 13 for the Trail Blazers (3-3), who rested four starters as their three-game winning streak ended. Portland center Chris Kaman scored 10 of his 12 points in the first half against his former Lakers teammates. With the NBA preseason firmly in its dog days, both teams rested most of their top players in front of a half-full arena in the Inland Empire an hour east of downtown Los Angeles. The Lakers scratched Bryant and Jordan Hill for the second game of a back-to-back set. Bryant was simply resting for the first time in the preseason, but Hill has a sore left shoulder. Damian Lillard had eight points and five turnovers while playing 17 minutes in the first half for the Blazers, who rested their other four regular starters on the second night of a back-to-back set that began in Boulder, Colorado, on

TIP-INS Trail Blazers: Portland hadn’t lost a preseason game to the Lakers since 1992, winning four straight. ... Lillard played in his first NBA game in this building, and coach Terry Stotts debuted with the team on the same night in 2012. ... Kaman wore a large bandage over three stitches on the back of his head after a collision with T imofey Mozgov’s mouth during Portland’s win over Denver on Tuesday. Lakers: Hill joined four Lakers teammates sidelined with injuries: Steve Nash (back), Xavier Henry (right knee), Ryan Kelly (right hamstring) and Nick Young (right thumb). The Lakers lost a league-worst 319 man-games to injuries last season. ... Ed Davis blocked four shots. ... Lin made six turnovers in 25 minutes.
UP NEXT The Blazers finish the preseason Friday at the Los Angeles Clippers, while the Lakers face the Sacramento Kings in Las Vegas on Friday in their preseason finale.
It’s easy to see the program’s impact. The teams have generally improved up and down the coast. Coquille is in a new league, but will extend its run of trips to the playoffs to five straight seasons. One of the squads from Reedsport, Bandon and Myrtle Point will be in the Class 2A playoffs along with Gold Beach. “It’s great to see so many teams in the area have great success,” North Bend athletic director Mike Forrester said. And, as Marshfield ath-
letic director Greg Mulkey pointed out Wednesday, the junior varsity teams from Marshfield and North Bend are playing for the JV league title tonight, as a primer for Friday’s big game. When it comes to the main event, the players are anticipating a big crowd, they hope the best in recent years. “I can’t wait to come out of the tunnel,” Marshfield’s Rylee Trendell said. “That’s the best thing to see, everyone screaming and supporting both teams.”
ing for the state playoffs. Class 4A playoffs: Far West League champion Marshfield is the No. 4 seed for the Class 4A playoffs and will host a match on Nov. 1. If all the home teams win their play-in matches, Marshfield will host either Henley or Newport — those teams meet in the play-in round at Henley. Marshfield swept a match at Newport on Sept. 4. Henley was in the Marshfield Invitational on Saturday, but was eliminated in the semifinals by Hidden Valley, which Marshfield beat for the championship. Two Far West League teams also will be in the play-in round. Siuslaw hosts Tillamook and Douglas visits former league foe Sutherlin.
SOCCER St. Mary’s 13, Pacific 0: The Pirates fell to the Crusaders in Medford on Wednesday. Pacific finishes its season at home against Cascade Christian on Saturday.
Stanford women are Pac-12 favorites SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — No surprise that Hall of Fame coach Tara VanDerveer’s Stanford team is picked to win a 15th consecutive Pac-12 regular-season women’s basketball championship, though she doesn’t pay much attention to preseason hype. “We want to be a championship team at the end,” she said. “I hope we’ll live up to the pick by the other coaches, I don’t want to disappoint them.” The rest of the conference is confident the Pac-12 is better than it has been in years. “Having been at Stanford as long as I’ve been at Stanford, every year is really hard,” VanDerveer, in her 29th year as Cardinal coach, said during Wednesday’s media day. “Do I expect a big battle this year? Yes, but I expect it every year.” A poll of the league coaches gave the Cardinal 116 points and seven first-place votes, the Pac-12 announced during its media day Wednesday. Bay Area rival California was chosen to finish in second place. “Stanford is Stanford, they just kind of reload with more All-Americans,” said first-year Oregon coach Kelly Graves, who came to Eugene from a successful run at Gonzaga. “We’ve played them every single year for the last six to eight years. I always thought we had the two best programs on the West Coast and should have been playing. They show you every-
thing you’re weak at, they expose you for what you aren’t.” Despite losing Pac-12 Player of the Year and AllAmerican Chiney Ogwumike to the WNBA, VanDerveer welcomes back 12 letterwinners from last season, when the Cardinal reached the Final Four for the sixth time in seven years. Cal has been to the postseason in nine straight seasons, including the program’s first Final Four berth in 2013 under coach Lindsay Gottlieb. Following the Golden Bears in the preseason poll are Oregon State, UCLA, Washington, USC, Arizona State, Washington State, Oregon, Colorado, Utah and Arizona. UCLA, under fourth-year coach Cori Close, advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament and has the top recruiting class in the country. Graves has made the jump from the dominant team in the West Coast Conference after 13 years at national power Gonzaga to the wellfunded and supported Ducks program with a chance to make an immediate impact in the Pac-12. “I don’t care what anybody thinks. I know there are expectations,” Graves said. “Nobody puts higher expectations on a team than I do.” Oregon State, looking to build off its first NCAA berth last spring since 1996, will play at Tennessee on Dec. 28 as its final tuneup before Pac-12 play begins.
Arbiter rules Goodell will have to testify in Rice appeal THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has been told to testify in Ray Rice’s appeal of his indefinite suspension, a person familiar with the case told The Associated Press. Former U.S. District Judge Barbara S. Jones, the neutral arbiter selected to hear the appeal, informed the parties of her decision. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because details haven’t been made public. It’s uncerwhether tain Goodell will testify. He said this month he would leave the decision to Judge Jones. NFL lawyers have argued that Goodell shouldn’t have to testify, and instead were offering testimony from Jeff Pash, the NFL’s general counsel, and Adolpho Birch, the NFL’s vice president for labor policy. Pash and Birch were with Goodell when he met with Rice’s side in June to talk about what happened when the former Pro Bowl running back hit his then-fiancee in an elevator. The hearing will be held Nov. 5 and 6, two people familiar with the case told the AP on Tuesday. Rice was suspended indefinitely Sept. 8 for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy after a video of the former Pro Bowl running back hitting the woman was released

publicly. Goodell originally had suspended the running back for two games. Once the video became public, the Baltimore Ravens cut Rice, and the league banned him indefinitely. The players’ union appealed Rice’s suspension, saying he should not be punished twice.
Polian, Wolf are Hall finalists CANTON, Ohio — Former general managers Bill Polian and Ron Wolf were selected as contributor finalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s class of 2015. Polian and Wolf were chosen by the Hall of Fame’s contributor committee. Inductees will be selected Jan. 31, the day before the Super Bowl in Glendale, Arizona. Mick Tingelhoff is the senior committee nominee, and there will be 15 modern era finalists.
COLLEGE Scandal included 1,500 athletes CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — A scandal involving bogus classes and inflated grades at the University of North Carolina was bigger than previously reported, encompassing about 1,500 athletes who got easy A’s and B’s over a span of nearly two decades, according to an investigation. At least nine university employees were fired or under disciplinary review, and the question now becomes what, if anything, the NCAA will do next. Penalties could range from fewer scholarships to vacated wins.
Most of the athletes were football players or members of the school’s basketball program that won three of its five national titles during the scandal (1993, 2005, 2009). In all, about 3,100 students enrolled in classes they didn’t have to show up for in what was deemed a “shadow curriculum” within the former African and Afro-American Studies (AFAM) department from 1993 to 2011, the report by former U.S. Justice Department official Kenneth Wainstein found.
TENNIS Kvitova, Wozniaki get wins SINGAPORE — Petra Kvitova beat Maria Sharapova 6-3, 6-2 at the WTA Finals today, further eroding the Russian player’s hopes of claiming the year-end No. 1 ranking. Sharapova, who needs to win the title to have a chance of overtaking Serena Williams for the No.1 ranking, fell to a 0-2 record while Kvitova is 1-1 in the White Group round-robin stage. In order for Sharapova to progress to the semifinals, she will need to win her last match against Agnieszka Radwanska and rely on Caroline Wozniacki beating Kvitova while also having set and game percentage turn in her favor. Wozniacki beat Radwanska 7-5, 6-3 in the other White Group match today
HOCKEY Game postponed in Ottawa OTTAWA, Ontario — The NHL postponed the Toronto Maple Leafs’ game in Ottawa because of the shootings in the capital. A Canadian soldier standing guard at a war memorial was shot to death, and gunfire then erupted inside Parliament.
GOLF Birdie binge gives Korda lead
Park will take the No. 1 spot in women’s golf from Stacy Lewis on Monday. Both players are skipping the Blue Bay LPGA this week in China. Lewis has held the top spot 21 weeks. She moved to No. 1 on June 2 following her victory in the ShopRite LPGA Classic. Before that, Park was No. 1 for 59 weeks.
SOCCER Belgium moves into top four
ZURICH — Belgium has moved into the top four of the FIFA rankings for the first time and former World Cup winner Spain has dropped to 10th following a loss to Slovakia in a European Championship qualifier. The top three positions remain the same. Despite a tough start to its Euro 2016 qualifying campaign, World Cup winner Germany is first ahead of runner-up Argentina and Colombia. Two-time defending European champion Spain has slipped back two places. Belgium’s rise coincides with the Netherlands going from fourth to fifth after losing Euro 2016 qualifiers to the Czech Republic and Iceland. Brazil keeps sixth place and France rises two places to seventh, but it is unlikely to stay there for long because it does not have any competitive matches between Park will be new No. 1 golfer now and Euro 2016, which it is DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Inbee hosting. HAINAN ISLAND, China — Jessica Korda birdied five of the first eight holes Thursday and finished with a 6-under 66 to take the firstround lead in the Blue Bay LPGA. The 21-year-old American, a two-time winner this season, birdied the first three holes and added birdies on No. 6, 8 and 14 in her bogey-free round in the inaugural event at Jian Lake Blue Bay. She also made a 65-foot par putt on the par-4 10th. Michelle Wie and Chinese star Shanshan Feng were a stroke back long with American Brittany Lang, South Africa’s Lee-Anne Pace, England’s Jodi Ewart-Shadoff and Germany’s Caroline Masson. Wie tied for fifth last week in South Korea in her first start since withdrawing from Evian in September after reinjuring a stress reaction in her right hand.

BRIDGE Mahesh Bhupathi, who won 12 doubles grand slam tennis titles, said, “I am glad that Wimbledon is my last slam. I love the atmosphere and courts of SW19, and it is an addiction, which I will find tough to give up.” If you have never been to Wimbledon, go! As Bhupathi says, the atmosphere is special. If you are in a bridge slam, take some extra time, because so many points are at stake. In this deal, how should South play in six spades after West leads the club queen?
North’s two-no-trump response showed a balanced hand with eight points or more. South, knowing that his side had at least an eight-card spade fit, used the Gerber convention, asking for aces. The original declarer took the first trick with dummy’s club king and played a spade to his king — and had to concede down one when West discarded. If the spades were 2-2 or 3-1, there would not have been a problem. So South should have slammed his attention on dealing with a 4-0 break. If West had all four, the contract was unmakable. But when East had four, they could be picked up if South could lead through East’s 10-nine twice. But that required two dummy entries: the heart ace and club king. Declarer had to win the first trick in his hand and lead the spade king. Suppose East won with his ace and returned his second club. South would have won in the dummy and played a spade. Presumably East would have put in his nine or 10, but declarer would have won, returned to dummy with a heart, and finessed East out of his last two trumps.

Dear Tom and Ray: I am always irritated by people who have their accelerators pressed right up until the moment they apply the brakes. For example, I might be a half a block from a red light and will start coasting in anticipation of the stop. Someone behind me will swerve into the left lane, accelerate past me, and then I will pull up next to him at the light, having lost the race. This, it seems to me, is a great way to use extra gas. But with the new regenerative brakes on electric and hybrid cars, it may no longer be such a stupid maneuver. What percentage of the energy a car uses to accelerate is gained back via regenerative braking? I’m guessing about half, but if it’s 90 percent, it might not make much difference anymore if you drive stupidly, at least from a cost standpoint. — John TOM: Yeah, it’s still a stupid way to drive, John. R A Y : Cars that use regenerative braking can capture half, or even a little more than half, of the energy that would otherwise have been lost to heat during braking. That’s a wonderful thing, no doubt about it. T O M : But if you keep spending a dollar and getting back 50 cents, you still will go broke eventually. It’ll just take longer. RAY: “Regenerative braking” is kind of a misleading term, because it doesn’t really apply to the brakes, as we think of them. TOM: What it does is use your car's wheels, which are already turning, to generate electricity. That electricity can then be sent to a battery, where it can be stored for later use. RAY: When the wheels are powering the generator, the generator provides resistance, so the wheels naturally slow down. That’s the “braking” part of all this. T O M : And what’s so clever is how hybrid- and electric-vehicle makers use both that resistance and the traditional brakes to slow and stop the car. RAY: When you step on

CAR
TALK
TOM AND RAY MAGLIOZZI the brake pedal, the car’s electronic braking controller determines how much braking is needed, how quickly, and how much electricity the battery can accept and store at the moment. Then it figures out whether to get the braking from regeneration, the mechanical braking system or some combination of the two. And if it’s done well, with well-designed software, you, as the driver, don’t know the difference. TOM: So, when you race ahead to a stoplight and then hit the brakes at the last minute in a car with regenerative braking, you do recoup some of that energy that would previously have disappeared as heat from the friction of the brakes. But you don’t get all of it. RAY: In fact, the more urgently you need to stop, the more likely the mechanical brakes will have to be called into action, which means you’ll get even less recouped through regeneration. TOM: So we don’t recommend this style of driving, even if you have a hybrid or electric car, John. RAY: Here’s the final reason why: Even if you don’t waste as much energy as you appear to be wasting, you still feel like a jerk when the guy you annoyingly raced past pulls up next to you at the light with a smug look on his face and smiles at you.
Why are expensive cars so quiet? Dear Tom and Ray: We bought a new Camry, but the road noise seems
excessive when on certain freeway surfaces. How do expensive cars dampen road noises? Extra insulation throughout? Quieter tires? Is any of that stuff available to be installed after purchase for those of us who can’t afford a Mercedes? — Winson RA Y : Yes, all of those things affect how noisy a car is. Quieter cars use more sound insulation throughout, quieter glass, better bushings and mounts, and quieter tires. TOM: Quieter cars often have more mass, too. Mass absorbs sound and vibration. And the Camrys of recent years definitely are lighter and less substantial than the older ones — those of a decade or more ago. RAY: How much of this stuff can you add after you buy the car? Very little. There really are only two things you can do. TOM: One is look for quieter tires. New, low- and mid-priced cars often come with really cheap tires. And if you go to www.tirerack.com and enter the details for your Camry, you’ll see an option called Tire Decision Guide. If you set your top priorities as “Quiet and Ride Comfort,” you’ll get a list of tires that rate better in those qualities — along with consumer reviews. RAY: Consumer Reports also rates tires. And if you go to the website (membership required), you can look for tires that it has rated “excellent” for noise. TOM: New tires might not be a “miracle” cure for your Camry, or it might not be worth the cost to you to ditch the four perfectly serviceable tires you have, but that’s a variable that’s most within your control. And tires — especially if you currently have noisy, low-profile tires — can make a meaningful difference in noise level. RAY: The other variable within your control is “masking.” Or, as it’s otherwise known, turning up the sound system! Try some Maroon 5, Winson.
