Powerful storm lashes Port Orford

PORT ORFORD — On the heels of Saturday’s storm that walloped Port Orford, the Curry County commissioners are asking that the county receive a declaration of a state of emergency from the governor.

Curry County Commissioner David Brock Smith called for a declaration of a state of emergency in the county Saturday and will request the same from Gov. John Kitzhaber at the commissioners’ Tuesday meeting.

The first big storm of the season had sledgehammered the port at Port Orford on Saturday as high winds drove heavy waves crashing

NORTH BEND — The Oregon Department of Transportation reopened the McCullough Bridge on Sunday after last week’s storm caused damage that forced its closure.

Last Wednesday afternoon, high winds broke loose a temporary work enclosure over the bridge, prompting its closure so crews could make repairs.

Unfortunately, this weekend’s high winds also delayed work on the enclosure, continually pushing back the open date.

Drivers are advised to use caution when crossing the bridge.

Both sidewalks on the bridge are still closed for the next week.

Dan Latham, a project information specialist for the Oregon Department of Transportation, said the enclosure did not have the proper bracing around it when it broke loose and slid approximately 60 feet out of place. Workers had to wrap a cable around the entire enclosure and winch it tight.

There was also damage to the rails on the top of the bridge which will have to be replaced. Latham said the rails were mainly decorative, and there is nothing wrong with the stability of the bridge.

During the closure traffic had been detoured to East Bay Drive around the Coos Bay. Large commercial trucks were not be allowed on the detour, and were recommended to take Interstate 5.

At about the same time as the damage to the enclosure, a Florence man, 52-year-old Mark Fortune, died after his pickup truck fell from the work platform under the bridge into the bay. He was employed with the construction company, Great Western Corporation, contracted for the enclosure.

The incident remains under investigation.

BY GAIL ELBER The World

The Oregon Coast Historical Railway will unveil the newly acquired locomotive and cars of the Snug Harbor Railroad on Oct. 31, but the group must surmount some obstacles before it can actually run the miniature railroad that used to be a Charleston attraction.

Built in 1946, the miniature train began its career as a tourist attraction near Malibu, Calif., before it was purchased and brought to Charleston by Leonard Hall, a commercial fisherman and train buff. Hall built a track in Charleston near what is now the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology and offered rides on Sundays in the 1950s and 1960s.

The train consists of a locomotive, a tender that carries diesel and water, three open gondola cars with seats, and a caboose.

The locomotive is fueled by diesel burned in a steam engine, rather than in an internal-combustion engine.

“Following Leonard’s passing, the train was sold, and after being on static display for several years at Alton & Pacific Steam Railroad in Humboldt County, Calif., it was purchased and set up on a private ranch,” said OCHR secretary Tom Bakke in an announcement about the train’s acquisition.“In 1988 it was acquired by David Stare, owner of Dry Creek Vineyard in Healdsburg, Calif., who did some repairs with an eye toward running it.”

Local rail fans have coveted the train for years. At one time, Rusty Shield, who organizes the annual model railroad display at the Charleston fire station, had 40 acres set aside for it in

Passengers enjoy a chilly ride on the Snug Harbor Railroad in this undated photograph. Leonard Hall operated the miniature train in Charleston in the 1950s and 1960s.

Charleston, but was unable to reach a deal with the train’s owner, he said last week.

But this year, Bill Moe of Coos Bay arranged for OCHR to acquire it from Stare for $10,000. Chuck Bracelin Trucking and a team of volunteers brought the equipment from California.

OCHR will show off the train Friday, Oct. 31, at the OCHR Museum at 766 S. First St. (US Highway 101 North) in Coos Bay. Holly Hall Stamper, Leonard’s daughter, will be on hand to talk about the train.

The train will also be on display at the Pony Village during the Christmas season.

OCHR acquired some track with the train, and the group hopes to set up the locomotive on a track —

possibly on land adjoining the museum on the downtown Coos Bay waterfront — and offer rides. But the fact that the locomotive is powered by a steam engine is the biggest obstacle to that.

Insurance for steam equipment is very expensive, said Dick Jamsgard, OCHR’s president. He said the group is working with other steam-power aficionados to pursue options for lowering that cost. For instance, other railroad museums have avoided the insurance problem by converting locomotives to run on compressed air.

Meanwhile, OCHR is pursuing grants from local foundations and donations from the community to recoup the purchase cost and pay for repairs needed to make the train operable. A

It’s a little loco The Snug Harbor Railroad’s locomotive was built in 1946 by the Coffman Miniature Locomotive Works in Reseda, Calif. In addition to hauling tourists on “park trains,” miniature locomotives were used in mines and cement plants to transport material.

Coal mines used locomotives powered by compressed air to avoid the hazard of igniting coal dust. Oregon Coast Historical Railway president Dick Jamsgard said last week that he’s heard rumors of a such a miniature locomotive buried in a disused coal mine near Bandon.

Snug Harbor Railroad account has been established at the Coos Bay branch of Banner Bank, and donations can also be made via Oregon Coast Historical Railway’s Facebook page.

COOS BAY — For a child to become what Oregon’s chief education officer calls a “super reader,” reading has to be fun.

Chief education officer Nancy Golden came to Southwestern Oregon Community College on Wednesday, talking with more than 450 Reedsport, North Bend and Coos Bay kindergartners about the importance of reading.

The trip is part of the state’s newest initiative, stORytime, an early literacy campaign focused on making sure kids are proficient readers by third grade.

A huge emphasis is placed on third-grade reading because it’s a critical transition point in a child’s education, said Kristin Gimbel, communications director for Golden’s office.

“They’re moving from learning to read to reading to learn,” she said. “It transcends into other content areas.”

It ties in to the Oregon Education Investment Board’s recent strategy recommendations to the governor, in which a major focus was placed on kindergarten readiness and third-grade reading.

Gimbel said the state called for kindergartners specifically to come to the event because “we felt like they’re in such an important transition point from early learning to elementary school.”

“It’s an opportunity to excite them about literacybuilding and reading,” she said.

And they were excited.

Performances by Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians tribal flutist Doc Slyter, drumming from an Educare group and books read by local teachers and volunteers allowed the students to “talk, read, play and sing” — the campaign’s tagline.

It gives parents tips on ways to incorporate literacy and vocabulary into everyday interactions with their kids.

North Bay Elementary principal Colleen Reeves said this is the first time a statewide education campaign like this has come to the Bay Area.

In some cases and in “pockets” of the community, parents are not engaged in their child’s education, Reeves said.

Part of that is families not connecting with education and recognizing its importance, but a lot of it is also how busy families are today, she said.

“They’re juggling multiple jobs, and it’s hard to make (reading) a priority,” she said.

“Even five minutes of reading to your child helps, wherever you can find the time.”

Reeves finds time to read to her grandchildren while they’re taking a bath. Golden

said her grandchildren come to her house almost every day to find a toy or book on her beanbag chair.

“This (event) is showing the importance that we have to work with kids prior to school,” Reeves said.

Every child got to choose and take home a book Wednesday. Their parents got a grocery bag full of ideas for learning words.

Umpqua Bank’s new charitable foundation made its first investment in this campaign, matching community donations of up to $100,000 to put more than 80,000 books in Oregon families’ homes.

“I know all of you have super big dreams,” Golden told the room of youngsters.

“One of the most important ways you can become a super good reader is to learn more words.”

Opinion theworldlink.com/news/opinion

Abuse by federal prosecutor A group of Washington overlords — federal prosecutors — sometimes break rules and wreck people’s lives.

President Obama may soon appoint one of them to be America’s next Attorney General.

The prosecutorial bullying is detailed in a new book by Sidney Powell, “Licensed to Lie.” She reports that the Department of Justice’s narcissistic and dishonest prosecutors destroy people by doing things like deliberately withholding evidence.

Remember the Arthur Andersen accounting firm? It was killed off by ambitious prosecutors who claimed the company helped Enron commit accounting fraud and then shredded the evidence.

But instead of charging people who allegedly ordered evidence destroyed, the DOJ indicted the entire company. That destroyed the accounting firm. Publicly traded companies cannot do business with companies under criminal investigation, so Andersen lost most of its clients.

The prosecutor’s purpose, says Powell, was to chill resistance from other JOHN companies that might STOSSEL dare fight the Feds. The message: cooperate, or we Columnist will destroy you! These pressure tactics were appropriate, said one prosecutor, because shredding documents “attacks the justice system itself by impeding investigators and regulators from getting at the truth.”

But who actually hid the truth? The prosecutors, writes Powell. In fact, Andersen had saved most of its documents and gave them to the government. The prosecutors simply lied to the court about it.

Eventually, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Arthur Andersen’s conviction. But by then, 80,000 employees had lost their jobs — 80,000 people who’d done nothing wrong.

You’d think that this would teach federal prosecutors to obey the law. So were the prosecutors fired or jailed? No. Next, some of the same prosecutors accused four Merrill Lynch executives of falsifying Enron’s books.

But Powell writes that the government “failed to allege anything that actually constituted a crime by the Merrill Lynch executives. Instead it cobbled together parts of different statutes to make up some kind of new crime that didn’t even make sense.”

Sure enough, an appeals court tossed most of the verdict, and the Merrill executives were released. But that was after they had spent a year in jail.

Did the prosecutors hang their heads in shame? No. Some of them then went after Republican Sen. Ted Stevens of Alaska, who, prosecutors claimed, took $250,000 in unreported gifts from rich donors.

But later it was revealed that the prosecutors withheld evidence that showed Stevens had not taken anything like $250,000. A judge threw out that conviction, too. But by then, Sen. Stevens had lost his Senate seat.

His replacement, a Democrat, became the deciding vote for Obamacare.

So was the lead prosecutor, Matthew Friedrich, finally punished? Again, no. He took a higher-paying job at a private law firm. Leslie Caldwell, who helped destroy Arthur Anderson, got promoted to assistant attorney general at the Justice Department.

Andrew Weissmann, who helped prosecute the Andersen and the Merrill Lynch employees, was made deputy director of the FBI. Finally, prosecutor Kathryn Ruemmler, who helped manipulate the system to unfairly jail four Merrill Lynch employees, was promoted to deputy attorney general, then promoted again to White House counsel. Now Bloomberg reports that she’s President Obama’s first choice to replace Eric Holder!

If you find these charges as hard to believe as I did, you can read Powell’s supporting documents at LicensedtoLie.com.

Federal prosecutors always have a big advantage over anyone they attack. The U.S. government has endless time and money.

Only multi-millionaires can afford to fight back. Most people accused, even those who are innocent, just settle with the prosecutors and get punished.

Prosecutors abuse this awesome power and get promoted for it.

Letters to the Editor Urging support for McKeown I would hope that others would join me by voting for Caddy McKeown as our state representative. She supported public education with her voluntary actions in our community long before her great work in the state legislature to gain more school support funding. Rep. McKeown has also greatly assisted the Coos Historical Society in its fundraising efforts for our new museum.

She has taken real steps to improve the lives of citizens in our community and deserves another term in Salem.

Tow company violates ordinance There were public hearings on North Bend Towing in Coos Bay in 2007. When Tina Amatisto and Imran Ali ran tow trucks from their Patrick Street residence, neighbors complained. The planning commission said, “No trucks! Only bookkeeping!” Tina appealed but lost. The family moved back to Frank Amatisto’s Meade Avenue residence, where our neighborhood is their sandbox.

Zoning regulations were adopted throughout the United States for good reason: to protect property values. The North Bend zoning ordinance says there can’t be any outward sign of a home occupation; the nature of the business cannot be visible to the neighbors. Frank has a 1986 home occupancy permit for one truck, at present, a highly visible, 30foot flatbed tow truck. In 2011, there were two trucks parked on the curb and one in the front yard.

Despite neighborhood petitions and photos, City Planner David

Voss never cited them for permit violations, $300 per day. Voss warned them, and then ignored our second petition.

I recently complained about tow trucks stopping by their house. Voss ignored my letter. His boss emailed that the city is not going to restrict the fleet from doing business at Frank’s house. I have appealed. The regular tow truck traffic is loud, dangerous and an eyesore. My neighborhood is zoned “residential.”

Tina and Imran formed a new in July, T.I.F. company Enterprises. In August, they bought Big A Autoworks, in Empire. At 7 p.m. Oct. 21, a Big A Autoworks delivery truck was parked at their house.

North Bend Towing has a commercial building in Reedsport.

They cover Coos County and part of Douglas. And where is the corporate headquarters?

At Amatistos’ house, 1666 Meade Ave., with the city’s blessing.

When the city allows commercial vehicles to regularly travel to and conduct business at a residence, that residence becomes a commercial property. Apparently, this family business is “exempt” from our zoning ordinance constraints on home occupations, although all these tow trucks moving in and out are highly visible.

The result of the city’s “bending the rules” for this family is lower property values for my entire neighborhood.

The homeowner immediately to the north of Amatistos’ residence has a “for sale” sign in his front yard. Good Luck.

The planning commission will hear my appeal in November.

Vote against Koch brothers’ support With the dismal performance

of Congress in recent years, the temptation to vote against any incumbent is understandable.

However, if we assume that all politicians are corrupt, we can expect to keep electing crooks. It is important, therefore, to take a closer look at who is trying to serve us in a dysfunctional Congress that puts special interests over those of the rest of us.

There is a simple test to determine if someone is running to serve your interests or those of well-heeled donors and corporations. Ask candidates if they support a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United by declaring that money is not speech and that corporations do not have constitutional “rights” they can use to evade regulations designed to serve the public interest.

Corruption by moneyed interests is the root of Congress’ failure. The overwhelming majority of Americans favor an amendment.

So do Jeff Merkley and Peter DeFazio. Remember that when you cast your ballot, and keep in mind that Robinson is backed by a billionaire hedge fund manager, while Wehby is the choice of the Koch brothers, who own the second largest privately held corporation in the country.

Whose interests do you think they will serve?

Technically, they are military In response to the letters of Sharon Ramirez and my neighbor Jim Sinnott; It is my understanding that all our presidents, both past and present, are or have been the commander-in chief of the armed forces of the United States of America.

A county charter we don’t need Your Views

BY MELISSA T. CRIBBINS

Many voters have noticed Initiative 6-149 on their ballot this year. It would change Coos County government from general law to home rule under a proposed county charter. This Charter is substantially the same charter that was on the ballot two years ago as 6-143 and was defeated handily, 26 percent for and 74 percent opposed. What has changed about this proposed Charter in the last two years?

Surprisingly, very little. It seems as though the proponents are hoping that the voters have short term memory loss.

Counties are legal creatures of the State of Oregon, and they have powers and duties that are given to them by the state. In 1958, a county home rule constitutional amendment was passed by the voters of the State of Oregon. This amendment allowed voters in counties to create their own charter to “exercise ... authority over matters of county concern.” By 1972, five Oregon counties had adopted home rule charters, and many more counties had considered and rejected proposed charters. By May of 2005, 30 of Oregon’s 36 counties have established charter committees at one time or another, and 25 had voted on proposed charters at least once. Nine counties are currently operating under charters.

County charters can be proposed two ways: first, the county board of commissioners and local state legislators can appoint a charter committee, and the committee is responsible for creating a charter to propose to the voters.

The second method is by citizen initiative, where one or more citizens get together and propose a new form of county government to voters. Initiative 6-149 and its defeated predecessor come to us through the citizen initiative process. In fact, Coos County government has only ever created one charter committee; it disbanded before submitting a charter to the voters. The proposed charter on the ballot currently was submitted by initiative petition. No county charter has ever passed in the State of Oregon that came through the process, initiative citizen although many have tried and been defeated. All of the successful charters have come from county charter committees. Why, you might ask? Let’s look at some of the provisions of the proposed charter and see if they shed some light on that question.

First, the proposed charter changes the number of commissioners from three full time paid

commissioners to five full time paid commissioners. The cost of this change, including benefits, is a little less than $200,000 per year, at a time when the county’s budget is well known to be under serious financial constraints. The proposed charter does not give any reason why two additional commissioners are needed, in fact,it actually gives commissioners less responsibility and less work to do, because it requires any capital project valued at $165,000 or more, any contract valued at $165,000 or more, or an agreement to obtain or dispose of some county property to get voter approval. In my household budget, $165,000 is a lot of money. It probably is in your household budget, too. However, the county is responsible for maintaining hundreds of miles of roads and managing thousands of acres of timber. Road paving contracts and timber sale contracts are nearly always more than the arbitrary limit set by the proposed charter.

Timber sale contracts bring money into the county budget.

These sale contracts will be lost if they have to wait months for voter approval, or they will come in at pennies on the dollar, as buyers are forced to subtract the costs of

the uncertainty of the contract from their bid.

The proposed charter has some other quirky provisions, such as requiring the human resources director to be elected. No other county human resources director in the state is required to be elected. It outright prohibits the hiring of a county administrator, instead of leaving the choice up to the voters.It also requires the creation of two new additional jobs: chief maintenance officer and a procurement officer. Again, it doesn’t say where the money will come from for these additional jobs.

One thing I know for sure this election season: Coos County has a limited general fund, and it gets smaller every year. In fact, the amount of money that the board of commissioners can use for sheriff’s deputies, the jail, and the veteran’s service officer is very limited. If we add two more commissioners, a chief maintenance officer and a procurement officer, we will have to choose to eliminate other jobs from our discretionary funding to find the money to pay these people. Like many people these days, the county is forced to choose between competing priorities. Please don’t add an additional priority that we neither need nor want. Join me in voting no on Initiative 6-149. We can’t afford it.

State Haunted-house decor causes fright for neighborhood kids DEAR ABBY: We have a neighbor who “decorates” his yard for Halloween in the worst way imaginable. Every year it becomes more macabre. He has “bodies” hanging from tree limbs, gravestones with RIP on dirt mounds and other unbelievable atrocities.

He thinks it’s funny. It is despicable and it scares the children who must walk DEAR past his yard.

W h e n we ask him not to put such deplorable items in our neighborhood, JEANNE he doesn’t it PHILLIPS take s e r i o u s ly.

I’m thinking about taking up a collection and bribing him not to put his growing, vulgar display up this year. What can we do? — SPOOKED IN TOPEKA DEAR SPOOKED: What you’re describing is a feature of Halloween that many children enjoy. However, you can’t “protect” your children forever. When they’re old enough to understand, explain to them that this is all done in the spirit of fun, and it’s not real or dangerous.

DEAR ABBY: When my husband and I were 18, we decided to have each other’s initials tattooed on our ring fingers. His tattoo included the initial that one day became my last name. It’s been 10 years and our marriage is still solid and beautiful.

I have worked hard at a nursing career, but I feel self-conscious about my tattoo, although I now wear rings as well. I still like my tattoo, but I don’t want people judging me because of it. My husband says I’ll only hurt myself if I remove something I love having. Do I express my love the way I wish or succumb to nasty stares from patients? — INKED FOR LOVE DEAR INKED FOR LOVE: I agree with your husband. You are entitled to express your love any way you wish. Many professional people sport tattoos that are far more flamboyant than the one you have. If you catch a patient staring, smile and share the story behind it. I think it is sweet and rather charming.

DEAR ABBY: I am friends with two women who dislike each other.

Neither one has family, so I usually invite them over for holiday dinners. Over the past 10 years they have tolerated each other and been cordial. But this summer they had a big row, and the divide is even wider.

I love them both, but how do I now handle Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, knowing how they feel about each other? Should I extend the usual invitation and hope for the best? Or should I not invite either of them to avoid the possible conflict?

I will not take sides. I think both of them are being petty and childish, but I also don’t know what to do. My family is quite large, and these two have always blended in nicely. — IN THE MIDDLE DEAR IN THE MIDDLE: Because you feel that having them together in the same room would cause tension for you, my advice is to have them over on alternate holidays.

Democrats fight to keep grip on Oregon Legislature SALEM (AP) — Voters in Medford, Ashland, Corvallis and Albany have an unusually large amount of power in next month’s election.

Those cities form the core of two ultra-competitive state Senate districts that will help determine whether the Democrats can hold onto their control of the Oregon Legislature.

A number of competitive districts in the House are also up for grabs, but Republicans face a much tougher hurdle to grab the majority there. So all eyes are on two incumbents in the Senate: Democrat Alan Bates of Medford and Republican Betsy Close of Albany.

Spending by the candidates has already topped $1 million in each of those races, and that doesn’t count the money spent by independent groups. Several other races are also drawing big spending.

“I think it’s going to be a close one, and it’ll be down to a thousand votes like it always does in this district,” said Bates, a doctor who’s twice won by close margins in his district stretching from Medford to the California border. “It’s just that kind of a district, split right down the middle.”

At stake is the Democrats’ 16-14 majority. Interest groups on the left are fighting aggressively to help

retired. Gelser has represented Corvallis, a liberal college town, in the House for four terms.

Democrats are also mounting a strong challenge against Republican Sen. Bruce Starr of Hillsboro, and the GOP hopes to make Senate President Peter Courtney of Salem sweat.

On the House side, Republicans are trying to chip away at Democrats’ 34-26 majority, but they’re unlikely to get the five-seat swing they’ll need to overtake the majority. The battleground is playing out in a handful of perennially competitive districts in the Portland suburbs, as well as one in Bend and another in Salem.

In a bit of irony, The Associated Press Republicans have attacked Sen.

Sentenced man allegedly asked son to shoot him PORTLAND (AP) — A former Bend developer who was to start a 10-year prison sentence this summer in connection with a wideranging Central Oregon mortgage fraud scheme was arrested in Idaho after his son allegedly confessed he shot his father to delay his prison term.

The Oregonian reports the U.S. Marshals Service arrested Shannon Egeland on Thursday in Caldwell, Idaho after his teenage son confessed that his father ordered the young man to shoot him in the legs in July, a day before he was to report to prison.

Egeland, 40, had moved to Caldwell, Idaho from

Oregon.

Egeland previously told authorities he was shot on July 31 by a motorist he’d pulled over to assist.

The shooting broke a bone in one of Egeland’s legs and doctors later amputated one of his feet.

But investigators learned that Egeland had taken out a death and dismemberment policy just days before the shooting.

Investigators also noted that the assailant who allegedly shot Egeland did not steal Egeland’s wallet, cellphone or BMW. Egeland was vice president of the now-defunct Desert Sun Development

company, which orchestrated tens of millions of dollars in mortgage fraud between 2004 and 2008. Company president Tyler Fitzsimons was also sentenced, to more than seven years in prison.

Egeland pleaded guilty to fraud charges in June 2010; he was one of 12 indicted in the scandal and one of five facing prison terms.

One of the first people to cooperate when investigators began probing Desert Sun’s collapse, Egeland began resisting and trying to minimize his role after he realized he would have to plead guilty and go to prison, prosecutor said.

After entering his guilty

plea, Egeland got into more trouble: he was convicted in Grant County of selling drugs within 1,000 feet of a school and then perjured himself when testifying at his trial, resulting in another conviction. And last June, he was convicted of theft for stealing $9 worth of goods from a Fred Meyer store.

At his sentencing in January, Egeland received a tougher penalty because he committed those crimes. He also was ordered to pay more than $13 million in restitution.

Egeland was to report for his prison sentence on May, but he convinced a judge to postpone his report date.

GMO labeling measure costliest in Oregon history PORTLAND (AP) — A ballot measure that would require labels on genetically engineered foods is now the costliest ballot measure in Oregon history.

A $4.6 million contribution by an out-of-state agriculture giant has pushed the total past the record set seven years ago.

Both sides of the battle

over Measure 92 have raised and spent a record amount.

Contributions to both campaigns totaled $23 million — a number that’s likely to grow in the 10 days before the Nov. 4 election. The two sides reported spending about $19 million.

The previous record was around $16 million collected and spent for a 2007 fight

over a proposed hike in tobacco taxes to pay for children’s health care. That measure failed.

Opponents of the GMO labeling measure reported $16.3 million in contributions, which is more than twice the contributions of supporters, who have received $6.6 million.

Their money comes mostly

from large food producers and biotechnology companies.

According to filings with the Oregon Secretary of State’s office, the measure’s single largest contribution — $4.6 million — was reported this week and came from Iowabased agribusiness DuPont Pioneer. The St. Louis-based biotechnology firm Monsanto previously gave $4 million.

Volunteers rescue fish in channel BEND (AP) — Wildlife officials and volunteers are rescuing fish stranded in a side channel of the Deschutes River near Bend.

The rescue Friday came in response to a fish kill last October, when 3,000 fish perished. The fish were stranded as water in the side channel dwindled.

The Bend Bulletin reports state and federal employees this year used electro-shock backpacks to stun fish and nets to scoop them into buckets. Volunteers passed the buckets, equipped with aerators to keep oxygen levels up, to the main stem of the Deschutes.

Organizers said the rescue effort led to more than 1,300 fish making it back into the river. They included 1,000 juvenile rainbow trout, 61 kokanee, seven brown trout, 20 white fish and about 300 sculpin.

Officials plan another rescue for next week.

Oregon prosecutor to focus on conviction integrity PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Multnomah County will for the first time have a single prosecutor responsible for guarding against wrongful convictions and investigating challenges to convictions.

The Oregonian reports veteran that 35-year Multnomah County prosecutor, Russ Ratto, starts the new job on Monday.

Ratto will review claims of innocence after convictions have occurred and update office protocols.

Multnomah County Rod District Attorney Underhill says assigning one deputy prosecutor to the work will make it easier to track cases and boost public confidence.

Hunter accidentally wounded by friend BEND (AP) — One duck hunter accidentally shot another in the leg as the men from Bend climbed over a downed tree while returning to their car Sunday along the Deschutes River near Sunriver.

The Deschutes County sheriff’s office says 22-yearold Jesse Derrick shot 21-year-old Colton Nye in the back of his leg at close range with a 12-gauge shotgun.

KTVZ reports Nye was treated at the scene by

Sunriver medics and flown to St. Charles Bend hospital.

A nursing supervisor said he was in fair condition.

Stolen car crash injures sergeant PORTLAND (AP) — Police say the driver of a stolen car attempted to get away from officers in Portland Sunday and crashed into a patrol car, injuring a sergeant.

An officer had attempted to stop the car in the parking lot at Portland Community College when it took off.

Police say it collided with a responding police car,

STATE D I G E S T sending it into a utility pole.

A sergeant in the car was treated at a hospital.

The fleeing car crossed a field and hit a house.

Officers arrested the driver, 28-year-old Troy Lynn Harrison, on charges including assault, hit-and-run and possessing a stolen vehicle.

Man accused in 4 Scio area fires

man has been charged with arson in connection with four of five suspicious fires in the Scio area in recent weeks.

Linn County Sheriff Bruce Riley says 28-year-old Zachary Burghart was arrested Saturday night after fire officials investigated a hay barn fire in the Scio-Jefferson area. Riley says Burghart was staying at the location with a family member.

DILBERT

Four steps to financial confidence For a good deal of my life, I lived under a dark cloud of worry that I would end up financially destitute.

A survey conducted by Harris Interactive for Allianz Insurance Group reveals that I’m not the only one. In fact, most of us have felt that way, not because we’re broke, but b e ca u se we don’t EVERYDAY have conCHEAPSKATE f i d e n c e that we k n o w how to hang on to our m o n e y.

And that makes us timid, wo r r i e d Mary a n d Hunt financially insecure.

Financial confidence is a choice. It’s a matter of changing bad habits and choosing to learn simple financial principles. Then by consciously applying them over and over, those principles will become automatic responses — financial habits.

Here are four simple things you can do, starting today, to improve your financial confidence — and take control of your money.

1. Get angry Debt is the pits. It eliminates your options, keeps you awake at night — can make you lie to your creditors, even lie to your spouse. I know. I’ve been terribly, worse than horribly, in debt!

So what are you going to do about it? Whine? Complain?

Feel sorry for yourself? I have a better idea. Get mad!

Decide once and for all that you will not sell your soul to the likes of MasterCard and Visa — not one more day, not one more purchase. Get righteously indignant at the very idea of transferring your future wealth to them. Decide right now that you will do whatever it takes to get out of debt.

2. Become a saver Saving money is like magic because it changes our attitudes and calms our fears.

I can honestly say that I saved my way out of a six-figure pile of debt. Knowing I had cash tucked away in a safe place quieted my insatiable desires. That is where I found my determination to stick with repaying the debt. As long as I knew I had some money to call my own, I was willing to go to great lengths to repay the debt. And in the process, I gained financial confidence and security.

Start with a dollar and stuff it in a coffee mug if that is all you can manage. Then make it $5. Soon you will be saving $10, $20 even $50 a week, plus all the change from the sofa cushions and washing machine.

It is not a requirement that you have your own paycheck to become a habitual saver.

Whatever money you manage — the grocery money, the household account — whatever it is, take some of it right off the top for savings.

3. Make it automatic Setting up a plan where you have money automatically transferred to your savings will move your financial confidence to a new level. Fill out an automatic deposit authorization form at the bank or credit union where you have your household account. Here’s the principle: If you don’t see it, you don’t miss it.

4. Set a financial goal Perhaps your financial goal is to repay your credit-card debt. Excellent! You need a plan. My Rapid DebtRepayment Plan, which is one of the pillars of Debt-Proof Living, is the best plan you’ll ever find because it creates a reasonable way to get out of debt.

Third student dies in school shooting

D I G E S T Stocks open lower after poor news NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks fell in early trading on disappointing economic news from Europe and lower oil prices.

A report on German business confidence showed a sixth straight month of declines on Monday.

Germany is Europe’s largest economy.

A separate report from the European Central Bank showed that 13 of the region’s 130 biggest banks failed a review of their finances.

The Dow Jones industrial average fell 37 points, or 0.2 percent, to 16,767 as of 9:31 a.m. Monday.

The Nasdaq declined 14 points, or 0.3 percent, to 4,469. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index slipped four points, or 0.2 percent, to 1,959. Energy companies led losses as oil fell below $80 a barrel in New York.

Prosecutors demand death penalty SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korean prosecutors on Monday demanded the death penalty for the captain of a ferry that sank in April, killing more than 300 people, and life sentences to three key crew members, a court official said.

Prosecutors also requested that a district court sentence 11 other crew members up to 30 years in prison on charges that they were negligent and failed to protect passengers when the ferry was sinking April 16, said an official at the Gwangju District Court in southern South Korea. He spoke on condition of anonymity, saying he wasn’t authorized to speak to the media about the requested punishment.

The 15 crew on trial were among the first people rescued from the ship when it began badly listing en route from Incheon, west of Seoul, to the resort island of Jeju.

Most of those who died in the disaster were students from a single high school who were on a field trip to the island.

Governors stress home quarantine NEW YORK (AP) — The gulf between politicians and scientists over Ebola widened on Sunday as the nation’s top infectious-disease expert warned that the mandatory, 21-day quarantining of medical workers returning from West Africa is unnecessary and could discourage volunteers from traveling to the danger zone.

Late Sunday night, the governors of New York and New Jersey stressed separately that the policies allowed for home confinement for medical workers who have had contact with Ebola patients if the workers show no symptoms. They will receive twice-daily monitoring from health officials.

The emphasis on home confinement was at odds with the widely criticized treatment of a nurse returning from Sierrra Leone who was forcibly quarantined is a New Jersey hospital isolation unit even though she said had no symptoms and tested negative for Ebola.

US official urges allies to combat IS ideology KUWAIT CITY (AP) — The United States is pressing Arab nations and other allies to do more to counter the Islamic State group’s slick propaganda campaign, with a top American envoy on Monday describing efforts to combat the extremist messages as a vital pillar in the fight to defeat the group.

The Islamic State group that has seized large parts of Iraq and Syria and declared a self-styled caliphate, or Islamic empire, in areas under its control embraces social media platforms such as Twitter and YouTube.

Hollywood-style film clips and other elements of its media campaign boost the group’s credibility among disaffected but plugged-in young Muslims and helps it promote its conquests, inspire sympathizers and attract new recruits.

MARYSVILLE, Wash. (AP) — A 14-year-old girl who was wounded when a student opened fire inside a Washington state high school has died, raising the death toll in the shooting to three, including the gunman.

Gia Soriano died Sunday night, more than two days after she was shot, officials at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett said.

“We are devastated by this senseless tragedy,” her family said in a statement, read at a news conference by Dr. Joanne Roberts. “Gia is our beautiful daughter, and words cannot express how much we will miss her.”

Roberts said Gia’s family was donating her organs for transplant.

Another girl, who hasn’t been officially identified, was killed Friday when a popular freshman at MarysvillePilchuck High School north of Seattle opened fire. The shooter, Jaylen Fryberg, died at the scene of a self-inflicted wound.

Three other students remain hospitalized, two in critical condition and one in serious condition.

Earlier Sunday, parents and students gathered in a gymnasium at the school for a community meeting, with speakers urging support and prayers and tribal members playing drums and singing songs. Fryberg was from a prominent family from the Tulalip Indian tribes.

“We just have to reach for that human spirit right now,” said Deborah Parker, a tribal member.

“Our legs are still wobbly,” said Tony Hatch, a cousin of one of the injured students.

“We’re really damaged right now.”

Of the wounded students, only Nate Hatch, 14, showed improvement, though he remained in serious condition in intensive care at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Andrew Fryberg, 15, also was in critical condition in intensive care. Both are cousins of Jaylen Fryberg.

Shaylee Chuckulnaskit, 14, remained in critical condition in intensive care at Providence Regional Medical Center.

Fryberg died in the attack after a first-year teacher intervened. It’s unclear if he intentionally killed himself or if the gun went off in a struggle with a teacher.

As the community looked for comfort, a makeshift memorial on a chain-link fence kept growing Sunday.

Balloons, flowers, stuffed toys and signs adorned the fence near the school, which will be closed this week.

Meanwhile, the close-knit community on the nearby Tulalip Indian reservation struggled with the news that the shooter was a popular teenager from one of their more well-known families.

A tribal guidance coun-

selor said no one knows what motivated Fryberg.

“We can’t answer that question,” said Matt Remle, who has an office at Marysville-Pilchuck High School, which is 30 miles north of Seattle. “But we try to make sense of the senselessness.”

In the nearby community of Oso, where a mudslide this spring killed dozens, people planned to gather to write condolence letters and cards.

Remle said he knew Fryberg and the other students well.

“My office has been a comfort space for Native students,” he said. “Many

2 pro-Europe parties leading Ukraine vote KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — Two pro-European parties that campaigned for tough reforms to battle corruption shared the lead Monday after Ukraine’s parliamentary election, according to partial results.

With more than half the votes counted, Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk’s Popular Front was leading with 21.6 percent of the vote while President Petro Poroshenko’s party had captured 21.5 percent.

A recently formed proEuropean party based in western Ukraine called Samopomich was running third with around 11 percent of the vote.

Negotiations on forming a

broad reformist coalition are expected to begin immediately.

Sunday’s vote overhauled a parliament once dominated by loyalists of former President Viktor Yanukovych, who sparked months of protests that caused his ouster in February with a decision to deepen ties with Russia instead of the European Union.

Anti-Russian sentiment has spiked in Ukraine as the country battles separatists in the east whom many believe are supported by Moscow.

Still, the Opposition Bloc, which pundits believe largely drew its support from Yanukovych’s once-ruling Party of Regions, put in a

strong showing with around one-tenth of the vote. observers International hailed the vote as a step forward in building democratic standards despite the unrest as the government battles in eastern separatists Ukraine. Kent Harstedt of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe said the ballot offered voters a real choice and showed “respect for fundamental freedoms.”

Poroshenko has laid out an ambitious agenda envisioning significant changes to Ukraine’s justice system, police, tax system, defense sector and health care to be completed by 2020. Among the tougher decisions ahead

will be allowing costs of basic utilities in the cashstrapped country to float in line with market demands.

While around 36 million people were registered to vote Sunday, no voting was held on the Crimean Peninsula, which was annexed by Russia in March, or in parts of Ukraine’s easternmost regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, where shelling remains a daily constant.

The OSCE said there were few disturbances and isolated security incidents on election day. It noted, however, that the days before the vote saw instances of intimidation and the targeted destruction of some campaign property.

They all were “really happy, smiling kids,” Remle said. “They were a polite group. A lot of the kids from the freshman class were close-knit.

“These were not kids who were isolated,” he said.

“They had some amazing families and have amazing families.”

These factors make the shooting that much more difficult to deal with, Remle said.

“Maybe it would be easier if we knew the answer,” he said. “But we may never know.”

The SUV goes from All-American to global star DETROIT (AP) — Once a hulking symbol of American excess, sport utility vehicles are quickly becoming the world’s favorite way to get around.

It’s a surprising rebirth for a vehicle that was the subject of obituaries when gas prices spiked in 2008. Automakers won back customers by makmore ing smaller, fuel-efficient SUVs that also appealed to newly wealthy buyers in Asia and South America and former skeptics in Europe.

Indian drivers want SUVs to navigate rough roads. In China they’re a status symbol. European and American Baby Boomers buy SUVs because they’re easier to climb in and out of. Upwardly mobile Brazilian families like their spaciousness. Cheaper subcompacts like the Renault Duster are bringing in customers who couldn’t afford SUVs before.

Earlier this year, SUVs overtook four-door sedans for the first time as the most popular vehicle for individual buyers in the U.S. By 2018, analysts expect China to be the biggest market for SUVs in the world.

“The SUV genie is out of the bottle. They’ve been discovered by enough people that you’ll never put them back,” says Karl Brauer, a senior analyst with the car buying site Kelley Blue Book.

Global SUV sales rose 88.5 percent between 2008 and 2013, to 15.7 million, according to IHS Automotive. That was three times faster than auto sales as a whole. By 2016, IHS predicts annual SUV sales will total 20.1 million, or about one of every five vehicles sold.

Automakers are finding some surprising converts.

France — where environmentalists used to roam the streets slashing SUV tires — is second only to China in the growth of SUVs, with sales up 220 percent since 2008, according to Ford. Turkey is third.

Parisian Laurent Azoulai, 58, bought an all-electric subcompact SUV — the BMW i3 — in July.

“I used to have Mercedes and Renaults but I liked this because I only need it for city driving,” he said. “It’s small, and it’s electric, and I can’t stand pollution.”

Pirates will face Siuslaw again

Under rainy and very windy conditions, former triathlete Brad Kearns takes his tee shot off the first hole Saturday morning in the Speedgolf World Championships on the Old Macdonald course at Bandon Dunes.

Tiger’s teammate wins speedgolf title

BY JOHN GUNTHER

Weather wipes out first round

The World

BANDON — Last year, Eri Crum finished second to Rob Hogan in the Speedgolf World Championships.

They reversed the finish order Sunday, with Crum edging Hogan for the title in the third-annual event at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort.

The tournament was reduced to one round after brutal weather conditions greeted the golfers at Old Macdonald on Saturday, elevating scores and prompting organizers to treat the first day as a separate event.

The heavy winds and pelting rain from Saturday were replaced by dry, but breezy, conditions for all but the golfers with the latest start times in the Pro/Elite Division on Sunday.

More online: “It’s still See the gallery at tough golf theworldlink.com. because of the gusty w i n d s ,” Crum said.

“Relative to yesterday, it feels like a balmy day.”

Crum, who lives in Boise, Idaho, and was a college teammate of Tiger Woods at Stanford, shot a 76 Sunday in 46 minutes and 1 second for a total speedgolf score or 122.01.

“I hit the ball well,” he said.

“And I made a lot of my 5-footand-in putts, which is the key to speedgolf.”

Allan Phillips of San Antonio, who shot a 76 in 47:46.

“You can always play a little better,” he said. “You always leave few shots out there. If you told me at the start of the day I’d shoot 76, I couldn’t complain.”

Nobody was complaining about the weather after the first round, when the golfers faced wind gusts over 50 mph and driving rain that stung exposed body parts.

“I’ll never complain about the weather again,” said David Denyer of Michigan. “It was fun.

“At least today it was good conditions. That wasn’t golf yesterday.”

BANDON — Organizers for World the Speedgolf Championships faced a tough decision Saturday after the golfers faced brutal weather and opted to turn the tournament into a one-day event.

The event had been scheduled for one round at Old Macdonald and one at Bandon Dunes.

After golfers had to wait to putt while the winds pushed their balls on some holes and had trouble teeing the ball up or staying steady through a backswing on others, the tournament coordinators decided to treat Saturday’s round as a separate, one-day event, albeit one with a purse.

Scott Dawley, executive director for Speedgolf International, which puts on the event, praised the golfers’ perseverance in the conditions.

“Just think, you may never play another round like that in your life,” Dawley said. “We applaud each competitor for completing their round, and doing it with a smile on their face.

“Unfortunately, due to the severe winds, which resulted in the inability for the ball to remain stationary on several greens, among other weather-related issues, we have decided to modify our twoday championship into a one-day championship.”

Speedgolf world champion Eri Crum, right, and runner-up Rob Hogan pose with their trophies following the tournament Sunday.

C r u m ’s sco re wa s go o d enough to offset Hogan’s speed.

The Irishman blazed through the course in 39:57 while shooting an 83 for a total of 122.57, finishing second to Crum by the equivalent of less than a minute running or one stroke on the course.

“I’m thankful that I’ve improved so much on my speed so I don’t have to spot Rob so many shots,” Crum said after receiving his winner’s trophy.

“I started well,” Hogan said, adding that he had a bad stretch starting with a triple-bogey on the fifth hole.

“It’s disappointing. I’m looking forward to next year.”

The Giants’ work isn’t done. To add to the crowns Bumgarner helped them take in 2010 and 2012, they’ll need to win in Kansas City.

“We’re looking forward to getting back to our home crowd, where it’s going to be absolutely wild and crazy,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

Jake Peavy gets the first chance to seal it for San Francisco when he starts Game 6 at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday night against rookie Yordano Ventura.

If the Giants don’t win then, there is always this possibility:

THE WORLD

Bumgarner said he’s ready to come out of the bullpen in Game 7.

Hunter Pence once again was in the middle of things for Giants. He singled off James Shields in the second and scored on a groundout

by Brandon Crawford, who had three RBIs. Later, the enigmatic Pence accidentally threw his bat past the mound while striking out, and appeared to apologize to Shields.

Pence added another hit in a three-run eighth, making him 9 for 19 in the five games.

San Francisco pitcher Madison Bumgarner pitched a shutout in Game 5 of the World Series on Sunday against Kansas City.

Juan Marichal mingled in the clubhouse, too, waiting his turn to congratulate the guy with the curly, stringy hair.

“He’s so smooth. I say that he’s cold-blooded. When he’s on the mound, he dominates everybody.

Everybody,” Marichal said.

On this evening, Bumgarner fanned eight without a walk and never was in trouble as he constantly changed speeds, with no runners reaching third base. There hadn’t been a shutout in the Series since Josh Beckett’s clinching gem for the Florida Marlins in 2003 at Yankee Stadium.

Bobcats win league tourney Myrtle Point captured the Sunset Conference’s top seed for the Class 2A volleyball playoffs, winning the district tournament Saturday.

The Bobcats beat Reedsport 25-19, 27-25, 25-12 in the championship match.

Earlier, the Braves won a five-set battle with Bandon to earn the league’s second bid for the playoffs.

Both teams will have playoff games next Saturday for a spot in the state tournament at Redmond.

They will learn their foes after the final matches around the state Tuesday.

“I’m really happy with how the girls played,” Myrtle Point coach Tami Brown said. “We were behind in the second game by about eight at one point, but we were able to pull it together and come from behind for the win.

“It was a lot like the match the other night (a five-set win over Reedsport), but we were able to finish it tonight.”

Grace Hermann had 17 kills in the championship match. Nicole Seals added 10 and Kayley Leslie had eight.

Nikki Miller had 22 digs and Morgan Newton had 34 assists.

Reedsport coach James Hixenbaugh said his team played well the first two sets, though the Braves let the second set slip away after building the lead.

“The third set, Myrtle Point hit the ball well and we had problems digging the hits,” he said.

Kaylynn Hixenbaugh finished the day with 64 assists for Reedpsort, while Mariah McGill had 38 kills and Alyssa Sprague had 32 digs and six kills. Britney Manicke had nine kills against Bandon.

Reedsport edged the Tigers 2519, 24-26, 25-12, 23-25, 15-10.

Bumgarner puts Giants on verge of crown SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — With every pitch, Madison Bumgarner etched his place among the World Series greats.

The long, tall lefty kept slinging away and put the San Francisco Giants just one win from yet another championship, throwing a four-hitter to beat the Kansas City Royals 5-0 Sunday night for a 3-2 Series edge.

Hardly menacing on the mound, Bumgarner was simply untouchable — again. As “MVP! MVP!” chants broke out from each packed corner of AT&T Park, Bumgarner finished off the first World Series shutout in 11 years.

“You know what? For some reason, I keep getting really lucky this time of year, so I’ll take it,” Bumgarner said.

It must be more than luck.

Because by the time the 25year-old from Hickory, North Carolina, outdid his own winning performance in Game 1, he had evoked memories of Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Curt Schilling and the top October aces of all-time.

“Very humbling,” Bumgarner said.

He certainly joined those names, and maybe even exceeded them.

Who else has gone 4-0 in four World Series starts with an 0.29 ERA? Throw in only 12 hits in 31 innings, along with 27 strikeouts, and that math makes him the very definition of Big Game Pitcher.

“He’s special, isn’t he?” manager Bruce Bochy said during a quiet moment in his office eating dinner. “What a stud.”

Giants Hall of Fame pitcher

Marshfield’s epic overtime win over Siuslaw stamped the Pirates as a contender in the Far West League.

Now the Pirates and Vikings will face off again at 7 p.m. Friday in the Class 4A play-in round.

When all the final league standings were sorted out, the Pirates and Vikings lined up against each other for a spot in the 16-team playoff bracket.

While Oregon School Activities Association rules restrict teams playing opponents from their own league in the first round of the playoffs, those rules don’t apply to the play-in round.

Marshfield coach Josh Line said the Pirates are looking forward to the opportunity Friday.

“We’re just really excited to play in front of our home crowd,” Line said. “Siuslaw is always tough, but we will be ready to compete come Friday.”

Admission for the game will be $6 for adults and $4 for students.

The Marshfield athletic department will sell tickets in advance of the game from 1 to 4 p.m. Wednesday and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday.

South Umpqua, the third-place team from the Far West League, will host Ontario in the play-in round.

The other play-in matchups include Stayton at Philomath, Klamath Union at Crook County, Elmira at Sweet Home, Sisters at Henley, Seaside at Banks and Molalla at Baker.

Far West League champion North Bend, which was No. 2 in the final rankings behind Gladstone, has a bye into the first round of the playoffs and will host a game a week from Friday.

actually. It was really neat to hear,” he said.

Toward the late innings, it appeared that only a lightning strike could rescue the Royals, perhaps a home run out of nowhere. Not happening — this was the third straight game without either team hitting a homer, the longest streak in the World Series since 1948 when the Boston Braves and Cleveland began with a three-game drought, STATS said.

Exactly why the man nicknamed MadBum is so dominant isn’t easily apparent. Royals cleanup hitter Eric Hosmer said before the game that Bumgarner’s “cross-body” delivery is tough to pick up.

The 6-foot-5 Bumgarner definitely has an impressive whip, along with an imposing WHIP in the World Series.

His walks-plus-hits ratio per inning is incredible.

About the only thing Bumgarner didn’t do well was get a hit. He takes pride in his plate prowess and launched four home runs this season, including two grand slams. Bumgarner went 0for-4, leaving him hitless in 22 postseason at-bats.

Yep, he’s still got some work to do.

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Oscar Taveras, the St. Louis Cardinals’ outfielder regarded as one of the majors’ top prospects, died Sunday in a car accident in his native Dominican Republic. He was 22.

Taveras was driving a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro at the time of the crash on a highway between the beaches of Sosua and Cabarete in Puerto Plata, about 215 miles north of the capital of Santo Domingo, said Col. Diego Pesqueira of the Metropolitan Transportation Agency. police National spokesman Jacobo Mateo Moquete said he was told by the mayor of Sosua that Taveras lost control of his vehicle and went off the road.

Edilia Arvelo, 18, who was in the car with Taveras, also died in the accident, Pesqueira said.

Taveras made his major league debut this year. He hit .239 with three homers and 22 RBIs in 80 games for the NL Central champions.

Sports SPEEDGOLF From Page B1 Denyer shot a 78 Sunday, when 16 of the 30 finishers (one player lost all his balls and didn’t finish) shot in the 70s. On Saturday, only two golfers shot in the 80s and 16 failed to break 100.

The biggest one-day turnaround was by Mark Stockamp, a sophomore at the University of Washington and 2012 amateur champion.

During the brutal conditions Saturday, Stockamp shot a 150 that included a 20 on one hole, an 18 on another and had three other holes 12 or higher.

Stockamp’s score Sunday was 76, when combined with his running time of 48:46 good enough for fifth place.

“I was 1-over coming through (No.) 9,” Stockamp said. “It felt pretty amazing.

“Yesterday took the most willpower I’ve ever had to finish a round of golf. I couldn’t keep a solid stance. I was just shanking it everywhere.”

Matt Dehlin, who finished sixth, said he was impressed with the quality of the field.

“It was fun this year with all the runners and better golfers.”

Nick Willis of New Zealand, who won the Saturday event, is an Olympic

medalist. Michael McLain, who finished fourth Sunday, was an NCAA Division II champion in Colorado, though a rookie for speedgolf.

The golfers also included assorted triathletes and marathoners.

The field also is becoming more international, including seventh-place finisher Jo Matsui of Japan.

Matsui said he had too many three-putts, but that he quickly became fond of the resort on his first visit.

“I love it,” he said. “I will be back (next year).”

The best golf score Sunday was a 72 by Tim Hval, the original pro at Bandon

Dunes when it opened in 1999 and now the pro at Portland Golf Club.

Christopher Smith, one of the cofounders of Speedgolf International and the sport’s record holder, shot a 73.

The tournament had a total purse of $50,000, though $9,000 was set aside for the Saturday event.

Crum won $10,600 for his victory, while Hogan received $6,720.

The two local competitors, Bandon Dunes staff members Jeff Simonds and Michael Chupka, finished outside the money in 21st and 22nd place, though both had golf rounds in the 70s.

WEATHER From Page B1 It’s not uncommon for the top golfers to shoot in the mid-70s and have running times under 50 minutes during speedgolf rounds. On Saturday, only two players broke 90 — Scott Manley with an 87 and 2012 world champion Chris Walker with an 89.

Nick Willis, an Olympic medalist for New Zealand in the 1,500 meters, won Saturday’s event by posting the fastest running time — 42 minutes and 57 seconds — while shooting a 97. That

gave him a speedgolf total of 139.57.

Manley placed second with his total of 141.49 that included a running time of 54:49. Defending champion Rob Hogan of Ireland was third, shooting 97 in 46 minutes even (143.00); Eri Crum, who won the tournament Sunday, was fourth with a score of 95 in 50:10; and speedgolf rookie Michael McLain, like Willis a standout on the track, was fifth after shooting 96 in 51:20.

The Associated Press

Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger passes against the Indianapolis Colts in the second quarter Sunday.

Steelers score 51 points in win THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PITTSBURGH — Ben Roethlisberger set franchise records with 522 yards passing and six touchdowns and the Pittsburgh Steelers raced by the Indianapolis Colts 51-34 on Sunday.

R o e t h l i s b e r g e r ’s yardage total was the fourth highest in NFL history. He became the first player to go over 500 yards passing twice as the Steelers (5-3) won consecutive games for the first time this season.

Antonio Brown caught 10 passes for 133 yards and two scores. Heath Miller caught seven passes for 112 yards and the clinching TD with 5:14 remaining.

Andrew Luck passed for 400 yards and three touchdowns, but also threw two interceptions. He handed the Steelers a safety when he was called for intentional grounding in the end zone midway through the fourth quarter as the Colts saw their five-game winning streak end spectacularly.

Bengals 27, Ravens 24: Andy Dalton made up for his two second-half turnovers by scoring on a 1-yard sneak with 57 seconds left on Sunday, rallying the Cincinnati Bengals to a 27-24 victory over the Baltimore Ravens that tightened the AFC North race.

The Bengals (4-2-1) wasted an 11point lead as Dalton’s fumble and interception helped the Ravens (5-3) pull ahead 24-20 with 3:59 left.

That’s when Dalton pulled it out against the NFL’s stingiest defense. He threw a 53-yard pass to Mohamed Sanu on third-and-10 — safety Terrence Brooks got turned around — and took it the final yard on fourth down, completing a 10-play, 80-yard drive.

The Ravens appeared to regain the lead when Steve Smith Sr. caught a pass and went 80 yards to the end zone with 32 seconds left, but the receiver was called for pushing off to get open.

Lions 22, Falcons 21: Matt Prater kicked a 48-yard field goal on the last play of the game Sunday, lifting the Lions after trailing by 21 points at London. Prater capped a second straight late winning drive for the Lions (6-2), who also rallied to beat the Saints last week.

It was the first field goal the Lions made from 40-49 yards all season.

Matthew Stafford threw for 325 yards and two touchdowns, giving him 120 TDs, breaking the Lions record of 118 held by Bobby Layne.

Matt Ryan led the Falcons (2-6) with 228 yards passing and two touchdowns, but clock management problems, a penalty and a dropped pass doomed the Falcons at the end. The blown halftime lead tied the biggest in Atlanta history.

Cardinals 24, Eagles 20: Carson Palmer lofted a 75-yard touchdown pass to rookie John Brown with 1:21 to play to give Arizona a stunning victory in a matchup of two of the NFL’s four oneloss teams entering this week.

The Cardinals (6-1) had a goal-line stand that forced the Eagles (5-2) to settle for a 20-yard field goal that put Philadelphia up 20-17 with 1:56 left.

Then on third-and-5, Palmer — who also had an 80-yard TD pass to Larry Fitzgerald — heaved the ball deep, where the speedy Brown gathered it in and crossed the goal line just as he was being tackled.

The Eagles drove to the Arizona 16.

On the last play, Jordan Matthews caught a pass from Nick Foles in the end zone but landed out of bounds.

NFL Recap

Seahawks 13, Panthers 9: Russell Wilson threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Luke Willson with 47 seconds left. It’s the third straight year Wilson has brought the Seahawks (4-3) back from a second-half deficit to beat the Panthers on the road. In the previous two seasons, Wilson threw second-half TD passes to Jermaine Kearse and Golden Tate in tight defensive games.

Carolina’s defense, which had allowed at least 37 points in four of its previous five games, held the Seahawks in check before Wilson led a nine-play, 80-yard drive for the only touchdown.

Wilson finished 20 of 32 for 199 yards with one interception and one touchdown.

Cam Newton was 12 of 27 for 121 yards with an interception and a fumble for the Panthers (3-4-1).

Saints 44, Packers 23: Drew Brees completed 27 of 32 passes for 311 yards and three touchdowns, and the Saints ended the Packers’ four-game winning streak.

Rookie receiver Brandin Cooks had a 50-yard touchdown catch and a 4-yard scoring run, and tight end Jimmy Graham also caught a touchdown pass to help the Saints (3-4) pull even in victories with Carolina (3-4-1). That sets up a showdown to decide first place in the NFC South on Thursday night.

Aaron Rodgers, intercepted only once in Green Bay’s first seven games, was picked off twice on deflected passes and sacked three times. He still passed for 418 yards, including a 70yard touchdown pass to Randall Cobb, but it was not nearly enough to prevent the Packers (5-3) from falling a game behind NFC North leader Detroit.

Patriots 51, Bears 23: Tom Brady threw five scoring passes and the streaking Patriots crammed three touchdowns into the last two minutes of the first half.

New England (6-2) scored on all five of its possessions in the half — and one of Chicago’s — on its way to its fourth straight win. The Bears (3-5) fell behind 45-7 early in the second half and lost for the fourth time in five games.

In one of the best statistical games of his brilliant career, Brady completed 30 of 35 passes for 354 yards. He threw three scoring passes to Rob Gronkowski and one each to Tim Wright and Brandon LaFell.

Defensive end Rob Ninkovich scored with 55 seconds left in the first half on a 15-yard return of Jay Cutler’s fumble.

Vikings 19, Buccaneers 13, OT: Anthony Barr forced a fumble on the first play of overtime and returned it 27 yards to score. The stunning end came just 17 seconds after the Vikings (3-5) extended the game on Blair Walsh’s 38yard field goal on the final play of regulation.

Teddy Bridgewater threw for 241 yards, one TD and no interceptions to help Minnesota stop a three-game skid.

Mike Glennon threw a 7-yard scoring pass to Austin Seferian-Jenkins to give Tampa Bay (1-6) a 13-10 lead with 2:02 remaining. But the Bucs’ porous defense couldn’t stop Bridgewater from putting together a nine-play, 61-yard march to get the game into OT. Glennon’s pass to Seferian-Jenkins gained 10 yards before Barr stripped the ball from the rookie tight end and took it up the left sideline to score.

Chiefs 34, Rams 7: Jamaal Charles ran for two touchdowns, Knile Davis returned a kick 99 yards for another score and the Chiefs trounced their cross-state rival.

Cairo Santos added a pair of field

goals for Kansas City (4-3), including a career-best 53-yarder. Alex Smith was 24 of 28 for 226 yards, while Davis capped a run of 34 unanswered points with a short touchdown run late in the fourth quarter.

Justin Houston had three of the Chiefs’ seven sacks.

The banged-up Rams (2-5) lost their sixth straight to Kansas City dating to Sept. 25, 1994, when they were still in Los Angeles. Austin Davis threw for 160 yards with a touchdown and a pick.

Dolphins 27, Jaguars 13: Rookie Blake Bortles had two interceptions returned for touchdowns, costly mistakes that helped the Dolphins win.

Louis Delmas (81 yards) and Brent Grimes (22 yards) scored on the turnovers for the Dolphins (4-3), who won consecutive games for the first time this season.

Ryan Tannehill’s 3-yard pass to Rishard Matthews made it 24-6 late in the third quarter and gave the Dolphins a comfortable cushion in a game they could have easily trailed by double digits.

The Jaguars (1-7) dominated the first half, but trailed 10-3 at the break because of miscues. Bortles was the culprit, continuing a trend that started when he took over the starting job last month.

Bortles had three turnovers Sunday, giving him six in the last two weeks and 13 in six games. Four of those have been interceptions returned for touchdowns.

Bills 43, Jets 23: Kyle Orton threw four touchdown passes and the Bills forced six turnovers, three each by Geno Smith and Michael Vick.

Orton won for the third time in four games since replacing EJ Manuel as the starting quarterback for the Bills (5-3), tossing TD passes to Robert Woods, Lee Smith, Scott Chandler and Sammy Watkins against the listless Jets (1-7).

Stephon Gilmore, Preston Brown, Aaron Williams and Da’Norris Searcy had interceptions for the Bills.

The Jets have lost seven straight for the first time since 2005. Geno Smith interceptions on three consecutive possessions in the first quarter and was pulled in favor of Vick, who was picked off once and lost two fumbles.

Browns 23, Raiders 13: Brian Hoyer threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Hawkins early in the fourth quarter and the Browns avoided a second straight embarrassing loss.

Hoyer’s TD to Hawkins put the Browns (4-3) ahead 16-6, shortly after Cleveland’s defense came to the rescue.

Safety Donte Whitner forced a fumble late in the third quarter with a huge hit on Oakland running back Darren McFadden as the Raiders (0-7) were driving deep into Cleveland territory.

Cleveland lost at Jacksonville last week, giving the Jaguars their first win.

According to STATS, no team in NFL history has lost consecutive games to winless teams in Week 7 or later.

Texans 30, Titans 16: Arian Foster ran for 151 yards and two touchdowns and also caught a pass for a score in the franchise’s 200th game.

The Texans (4-4) also snapped a three-game skid as Foster topped 100 yards rushing in his fourth straight game. J.J. Watt had two sacks and forced a fumble as the Texans beat the team they replaced in Houston for the fourth time in five games.

Rookie Zach Mettenberger turned over the ball twice in his first start, and he also threw for 299 yards and two touchdowns. The Titans (2-6) go into their bye having lost two straight.

Portland State tops winless Wildcats 30-17 OGDEN, Utah (AP) — Kieran McDonagh threw for two touchdowns and ran in a third to lift Portland State to a 30-17 victory over winless Weber State on Saturday.

Portland State (3-5, 2-2 Big Sky) took the lead for

good with a 41-yard field goal from Jonathan Gonzales in the second quarter, and put the game away with McDonagh’s touchdown run from the 8 with 2:25 left.

McDonagh finished 14 of 23 for 172, finding Darnell

Adams for a 24-yard touchdown and Kasey Closs for a 22-yarder. Steven Long had 118 yards on 21 carries for the Vikings, who won their first road game since Nov. 9, 2013.

Billy Green was 14 of 24

for 196 yards, a touchdown and an interception for Weber State (0-8, 0-4).

Shaydon Kehano also threw a touchdown and Darryl Denby had 100 yards on five catches, including a 36-yard touchdown.

STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — Oregon State entered Saturday’s game at Stanford still in control of its destiny in the Pac-12’s North Division. It left looking like a team that better worry about just becoming bowl-eligible.

Sean Mannion threw for a career-low 122 yards as the Beavers were beaten 38-14 by a rejuvenated Stanford team that dominated in almost every area.

“It was one of the worst days of football that we have had in a long, long time,” Beavers coach Mike Riley said.

Oregon State (4-3, 1-3) is all but out of the race to make the conference championship game now. Sean Mannion and the Beavers struggled to move the ball against the league’s topranked defense, scoring one TD after an interception and another against secondstringers with the game decided.

The Cardinal outgained Oregon State 438 to 221 yards.

“It was bad football all the way around,” Riley said.

The Cardinal (5-3, 3-2 Pac-12) controlled the game from start to finish, showing more diverse looks that they have all season — just like coach David Shaw had promised after a perplexing 26-10 loss at Arizona State last week took Stanford out of The Associated Press poll for the first time in four years.

Kevin Hogan threw for two touchdowns and ran for another, and Ty Montgomery returned a punt for a score as Stanford’s sporadic offense busted out of a season-long slump. The victory sets up a date with No. 6 Oregon for first place in the Pac-12’s

North Division.

“I told our players, ‘The last time our constituents were nervous about us and not sure what we were going to do, we won three straight games and went to the Rose Bowl,”’ Shaw said, recalling last season’s improbable run.

“The year before, when the world was crashing down around us once again, we won eight straight and went to the Rose Bowl. It’s a long season. There are a lot of things that happen.”

Stanford still had its share of mistakes, though, showing the turnaround is not quite complete. Hogan tossed two interceptions, Ben Rhyne had a punt blocked and Jordan Williamson made one of two short field goals.

But for most of the game, the Cardinal cleaned up their act.

Hogan completed 18 of 28 passes for 277 yards.

Stanford’s running-back-by committee approach racked up 151 yards rushing, including a 1-yard TD run by fullback Patrick Skov.

Mannion threw for 122 yards and was sacked six times. Oregon State had 12 yards rushing.

“They are tough up front.

That’s Stanford every year,” Mannion said.

The Cardinal’s captivating performance brings a lot more intrigue into Eugene, where Heisman Trophy hopeful Marcus Mariota appears healthier than last season’s game on The Farm.

Stanford has beaten Oregon the past two years on the way to Pac-12 titles and Rose Bowl berths, but the Cardinal had looked far from those juggernauts of the past for most of this season.

It’s time for the selection committee to go to work

BY RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press

Mississippi beat Alabama at home but lost at LSU to a team that had already lost twice.

Which team do you rank higher, the Rebels (7-1) or the Crimson Tide (7-1)?

Oregon lost with an injury depleted offensive line at home to Arizona, which then lost at home to Southern California on a last-second missed kick. The Trojans have lost a total of three games, two in the final seconds.

Which team do you rank higher, the Ducks (7-1) or the Wildcats (6-1)?

Voters in The Associated Press college football poll have been trying to sort out this stuff for years.

The College Football Playoff selection committee now gets to untangle these teams. The 12-member panel’s first top 25 rankings come out Tuesday night. The committee begins deliberating just outside of Dallas today, the first of seven gatherings before the playoff pairings are revealed Dec. 7.

Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio, whose team remained No. 8 in the AP Top 25, said he’ll be keeping an eye on the committee’s rankings and that he’s interested to see how the members come to their decisions.

“I think you’ve got to be a big-picture thinker here,” Dantonio said of about his interest in the process.

In the latest AP poll Sunday, Mississippi State and Florida State, the only undefeated teams left in the Big Five conferences, hold the top two spots. The No. 1 Bulldogs received 46 firstplace votes and the secondranked Seminoles 14.

Overall, the voters valued total resume and recent performances over head-tohead matchups.

Alabama moved up to No. 3, followed by Auburn, Oregon and Notre Dame.

Ole Miss fell to No. 7 after its first loss.

“I look at my vote as a snapshot of what I have seen during the season, but weighing particular importance on the most recent game,” said voter Tim Griffin of the San Antonio Express-News in an email. He had Alabama ahead of Ole Miss and Oregon ahead

of Arizona.

The Rebels were beaten 10-7 by LSU on Saturday night in Death Valley. LSU fans rushed the field to celebrate beating a top-five team Just a few weeks ago the field-rushing was going on in Oxford, Mississippi, after the Rebels slipped by Alabama, 23-17.

So both Alabama and Ole Miss lost tough close games, though it could be argued the Tide lost to a better team.

LSU has already lost at home to Mississippi State and was blown out at Auburn.

Alabama gets rewarded for losing to Mississippi?

“I waffled on this one for quite a while,” said Adam Sparks from the Tennessean in Nashville. “My final decision was just a question of which team I think is better today on a neutral field, rather than three weeks ago in Oxford. I think Alabama is better today.”

How about Oregon and Arizona?

The Wildcats were unranked when they went into Autzen Stadium earlier this month and coming off a miraculous comeback victory against California, capped by a Hail Mary TD pass.

Arizona took advantage of the Ducks’ patchwork offensive line, and got the benefit of a late celebration penalty on Oregon during its gamewinning drive, to win 31-24.

Since then, Oregon’s offensive line has gotten healthier and Marcus Mariota and the Ducks have been rolling. Arizona immediately stumbled against USC, but routed Washington State in Pullman on Saturday.

Oregon is No. 5. Arizona is No. 14.

“The overall body of work through nine weeks should mean more than individual snapshots from any given week,” said Drew Sharp from the Detroit Free Press.

“Oregon might wind up with the biggest non-conference win of the season, taking a good Michigan State team out to the woodshed in the second week of the season.

That affords them a little forgiveness over a bad game against Arizona.”

Maybe preseason perceptions are still in play?

Alabama and Oregon were top-five in the preseason. Ole Miss was No. 17 and Arizona was unranked.

BRIDGE Tallulah Bankhead said, “If you really want to help the American theater, don’t be an actress, dahling. Be an audience.”

At the bridge table, when on defense, you need to be both an actress — or actor, of course — and an audience. You take the lead role to steer partner’s defense, then you sit back and watch her — or him — execute the lethal line.

In this example deal, how should the defense proceed against one notrump after West leads the spade ace?

West might make a penalty double

of one no-trump. If his partner has a few of the outstanding high cards, the contract will probably go down. And if partner is weak, he might be able to run to a long suit. The bad scenario is when East has a weak, balanced hand. Then one no-trump doubled will probably come home, perhaps with an overtrick.

At trick one, East must signal with the 10, high to encourage.

First, let’s suppose that West cashes his spade king and plays another spade. East will win with his queen and cash the nine, but what will he do next?

Given his hand and the dummy, he is likely to shift to the diamond jack. Then, though, South will take the next seven tricks with two diamonds and five clubs.

How does East know that he needs to switch to a heart?

He doesn’t — but West does. Before leading the second or third spade, West should cash the heart king (remember, lead king from ace-king and king-queen after trick one). Then East will know to return a heart and the defenders will take the first seven tricks for down one.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2014 There is only so much you can do on your own. Learn to delegate tasks to people who have your best interests at heart. Protect what you have rather than going after something new. If you are realistic about your game plan, you will come out ahead.

SCORPIO (Oct.24-Nov.22) — Don’t offer private information to anyone. A casual remark made to the wrong person will cause serious difficulties.Social media must not be used to share your secrets or whereabouts. Be careful.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Contribute to your local food bank or community in some small way. Showing your generous side will spark the interest of someone you respect. A prosperous enterprise or partnership is likely to be suggested.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You will be distressed and disappointed by someone who lets you down. If too much pressure is put on your relationship, you will need to consider backing away and moving along.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Don’t hesitate to accept a leadership position within your organization or group. Influential individuals will be impressed by your knowledge and innovative ideas, and your prestige will increase.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Come to terms with whatever is preying on your mind. Leave the

past behind. It’s hard to move forward when you are still looking back.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — An impromptu day trip or adventure will inspire you to explore unfamiliar places. Plan an exciting holiday to somewhere new with someone you enjoy spending time with.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Not everyone will understand what’s going on in your personal life or your community. Be diplomatic when expressing your views, and keep your explanations simple and easy to follow.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Don’t let your volatile emotions dominate your day.Try not to overreact if someone offers you unsolicited advice. Help will come to you from an unusual and mysterious source.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Many people will look up to you if you are conscientious and thoughtful.A recommendation will be made that will lead to a promotion.Include everyone in your good fortune.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — If you have been spending too much time in front of the TV, take on a physical challenge. Friends and colleagues may not join in, but don’t let that stop you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Honesty is the best policy, but you should also be mindful of other people’s feelings. A gentle suggestion will be more effective than force or making an outright declaration.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — You will feel especially upbeat and optimistic today. Share your good spirit with everyone you encounter.

Your happiness will be infectious, and you will brighten everyone’s day.
