Coquille City Council enacts marijuana tax Councilor wonders if ordinance will be ‘exercise in futility’ ■

BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

COQUILLE — Coquille is the latest Oregon city to put a tax on marijuana sales if Measure 91 makes it through the November election.

But the Coquille City Council took a stronger stance on the issue

than have other cities in the past few weeks, unanimously voting for a 5 percent sales tax on medical marijuana and a 10 percent sales tax on recreational marijuana and marijuana-infused products. Coquille Mayor Matt Rowe emphasized throughout the meeting that the entire council was against marijuana in all forms.

“Despite the fact that this council voted unanimously for a moratorium (on medical marijuana dispensaries), we’re not in support of legalizing recreational marijua-

na,” Rowe said.

Measure 91 would legalize recreational marijuana in Oregon, removing penalties for people 21 and older who possess, use or grow small amounts. It would also tax marijuana and specifically prohibits cities and counties from enacting their own marijuana taxes.

But several cities, including Coquille, found a loophole: Since Measure 91 is not law at this moment, they can enact marijuana

Several other Oregon cities have enacted or are considering ordinances taxing marijuana sales in anticipation of Measure 91: Approved • Springfield • Ashland • Gold Hill • Central Point • Medford • Hillsboro • Forest Grove

Considering • St. Helens • Dayton • Tualatin

• Lake Oswego • Independence • Clatskanie • Sandy • Nehalem • Rogue River • Eugene • Reedsport • Gresham • Fairview • Troutdale • Portland • Oregon City • Salem

Coast town sees rise in illegal campers

BY ERICK BENGEL The Daily Astorian

CANNON BEACH (AP) — A perusal of the Cannon Beach Police Department log reveals that the most common violation involves people trying to camp on public property within city limits overnight.

They run the gamut, from people crashing in recreational vehicles, trailers or cars parked on streets and sidewalks, to drifters dozing on park benches or on the beach.

“Once they’re asleep, it’s camping,” Senior Officer Joseph Bowman said. “We’ve always had campers in town; we’ll always have campers in town.”

But the summer of 2014 saw a substantial increase in incidents of unlawful camping, he said.

“For the month of August, we had 150 warnings for overnight camping,” he said. For compari-

son, the department issued a combined total of about 120 traffic warnings and traffic citations that same month.

The violations usually begin around 11 p.m. and continue into the early morning hours. The Second Street parking lot, Les Shirley Park and the Tolovana Wayside are among the most popular places for campers without a hotel room to settle down for the night.

During summer weekends, officers may contact anywhere from 10 to 15 campers per night, Bowman said.

During a 90-minute stretch of one of Bowman’s recent night shifts, the officer came across three overnight camping cases, and each case was different from the rest.

First, Bowman informed a transient named Nicholas that he SEE CANNON | A8

Bipartisan outrage at Secret Service scandal

BY ERICA WERNER The Associated Press WASHINGTON — The scandal that’s rocked the once-proud Secret Service and raised questions about the president’s safety has also produced rare bipartisan unity on Capitol Hill.

With a month more to go in bitcontested congressional terly election campaigns, Democratic and Republican lawmakers who usually are at odds have been surprised to find themselves largely agreeing on a response to the agency’s recent extraordinary security breaches, including a knife-carrying intruder who made it all the way into the White House East Room.

There were bipartisan calls for Secret Service Director Julia Pierson’s resignation this week, and once it was announced Wednesday, bipartisan agreement on the need for a wide-ranging independent investigation. House Speaker John

DEATHS

COOS BAY — In an effort to boost literacy, the Coos Bay Public Library has launched a new chilutilizing program dren’s animal-assisted therapy (AAT).

The Furry Friends Book Club, in partnership with Furry Friends Therapy Dogs, kicked off its inaugural meeting on Sept. 16, showcasing the evolution of AAT services.

“The new program is designed to help struggling and reluctant readers practice their reading skills in a more relaxed environment,” Youth Services Librarian Bekah Westmark said. “Children can read aloud to the dogs and not feel the pressure of someone hovering over them.”

The first meeting, which ran from 3:30-4:30 p.m., featured four dogs and nine reading slots, with children rotating after 15-20 minute reading intervals.

Although the program was a new endeavor for the library, it’s already had a substantial impact on engagement as the children who participated in the inaugural meeting have signed up for future meetings.

“All the kids who came were so excited,” Westmark said. “One parent even called to say her child was telling all his friends at school the next day.”

The program has generated such a buzz that the sight of the excited children signing up even drew the curiosity of other library Library Director visitors, Samantha Pierson said.

The program meets the third Tuesday of every month, but because it’s already been such a major success, the library is already exploring adding a second meeting time during the month, Westmark said.

For Westmark and Pierson, who collaborated in organizing the program, it was important to partner with a committed, reliable organization, which it found in Furry Friends Therapy Dogs.

“It’s something very valuable to our community because it’s important to teach our kids good reading habits,” Furry Friends board member Ruthe Garagnon said.

Boehner, R-Ohio, and Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., both joined in that call.

Republican and Democratic leaders of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, which hosted Pierson at a hearing where her tepid and inconsistent responses infuriated all sides, sent a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson on Friday outlining their recommendations for the investigation — an unusual moment of agreement on a panel notorious for its partisan sparring.

Republicans typically critical of President Barack Obama have been just as full-throated as Democrats in voicing concerns about his safety.

And members of both parties are pledging vigorous efforts to ensure that Pierson’s resignation ushers in wholesale culture changes at the Secret Service, where morale has been battered. There are comSEE SECRET | A8

Woman charged with neglect after police find child on road BROOKINGS — A Curry County woman faces felony charges of child neglect after police found her 18-monthold daughter on the side of the road.

At about 8 a.m. on Thursday, the Brookings Police Department advised the Curry County Sheriff’s office that an off-duty Brookings police officer

reported finding an 18month-old female child wearing only a T-shirt and a diaper alongside the road near South Bank Chetco and Salmonberry Road. Officers said the child showed signs of hypothermia and was somewhat unresponsive.

The child was taken to Curry General Hospital for an assessment.

The mother of the child, 38-year-old Twyla Wheeler, was taken into custody shortly after the arrival of police and transported to the Curry County Jail. Wheeler faces charges of criminal mistreatment in the first degree, child neglect in the second degree and possession of methamphetamine.

Bandon man cited in elk killing COQUILLE — A Bandon man was charged with killing two elk and being a felon with possession of a firearm last week following a year-long investigation.

Dale J. Gilbert Stone Barker, 32, was cited.

A Coos Bay Fish and Wildlife Division trooper led the investigation with the South Coast Interagency

Narcotics Team, and issued search warrants at three Bandon-area properties at about 9:15 a.m. on Sept. 24.

Law enforcement uncovered items related to the investigation including one set of spike elk antlers, a taxidermymounted 7x7 elk shoulder mount, elk meat from 2013 and 2014, a compound bow and two shotguns.

Law enforcement also seized about 25 pounds of marijuana and edible marijuana products at Barker’s properties. SCINT detectives are referring charges of unlawful possession, manufacture and delivery of marijuana to the Coos County District Attorney.

Biker killed in crash was missing man Highway 42 straightening continues THE WORLD REEDSPORT — The man found dead next to his motorcycle off Highway 38 yesterday has been identified as the Coos Bay biker who went missing earlier this week.

Oregon State Police identified the victim as 59-year-old John Joseph Ambrosini on Friday.

The Douglas County Sheriff's Office originally reported Tuesday morning that they were looking for Ambrosini, who had left home last Friday to go for a motorcycle ride to the Roseburg area. He was supposed to come home later that night, but never returned.

His family reported him missing on Sunday after they hadn't heard from him

since last Friday afternoon.

On Thursday afternoon, OSP received information of a male lying next to a motorcycle off an embankment along the north side of Highway 38, about 12 miles east of Reedsport. When emergency responders arrived, they determined Ambrosini was dead.

The investigation showed he was westbound on the highway when he failed to negotiate a right curve and went off the road and down about 30 feet to the base of an embankment and struck a tree. The Douglas County medical examiner said the body had been there for more than a day.

Ambrosini was wearing a protective helmet.

His friends had been

There has been effort over the past many years to cleanse our language of words and phrases that are deemed insensitive to certain segments of the population. Recently there has been a push on to have the Washington Redskins rename their team because “Redskins” is considered to be offensive to Native Americans.

I am all for being sensitive, and we certainly should eradicate words from our vocabulary that create feelings that are painful for others.

Insulting words or phrases are inappropriate.

However, there are some words that have fallen out of use not because they are hurtful, but because they do not fit our social norms. One of those words is “sin.” We avoid calling certain behaviors sinful because either it has become too wide spread a practice or because those who call it sin are accused of being judgmental. The fact remains, God has deemed some things as being sin and making every attempt to make such behavior acceptable, does not change what it is. As one person said, “A rose is a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet.”

Sin is sin, by any other name it is still ugly and destructive.

Determination, desire are the key For every word of encouragement Terry Pittenger heard as she started her business, YourSpace Designs, she also heard someone else saying, in a decidedly sarcastic tone: “Good luck with that.”

Well, so far, so successful.

Pittenger started out in 2012 in a small storefront in North Bend — about 1,400 square feet. Today, YourSpace occupies two floors — 5,600 square feet — on the corner of Commercial Avenue and Second Street in Coos Bay. Her sales of high end furnishings, housewares and other assorted merchandise have increased by 50 percent.

And she said that when some people found out she was moving into the new space, they would say: “You know, nothing ever went into that building and succeeded.”

So, why did she do it? Why did Pittenger take the risk?

Simple. It’s her dream.

In the last few weeks we’ve told you the stories of

An occasional series focusing on business people who are continuing to find success despite a difficult economy.

Valparaiso, Ind., and Carbon County, Utah; communities that worked their way out of economic doldrums with a combination of focus, dedication, hard work, some luck and a lot of time. Those parables were intended to broaden our local perspective.

But Pittenger had that message years ago.

One of the reasons she said she started the business was that the merchandise she’s selling now was the kind of stuff she had been shopping for here in Coos County, but couldn’t find. Then, she started hearing the same thing from other residents,

Terry Pittenger poses in the showroom of her downtown Coos Bay business, YourSpace Designs, on Central Avenue. The business is in what is known as the historic Bank Building.

folks who were looking for upper scale objects that could only be found in shops in San Francisco, Portland or Seattle.

“If I were selling that kind of merchandise here, it would keep the money local,” she said. “We’re always talking about shop local; keep the money local. Well, how could I say that and then take my dollars somewhere else?”

Now, we’re telling Pittenger’s tale for a couple

of reasons, neither of which are intended to promote her business.

One: Her venture strongly suggests there is more money here on the South Coast than is immediately apparent. Her business is thriving and she’s currently employing three people (although she’s not yet paying herself).

Two: Her entrepreneurship is exactly what can help improve a local economy.

When others join her with visions of their own and determination, the impact grows exponentially.

Pittenger and her husband, Dr. Basil Pittenger, are taking a big risk. They made a conscious choice to invest in this business (and take on more debt) rather than keep taking their disposable income to the big city.

That kind of commitment needs to be repeated — again and again and again.

Why not make all drugs legal?

Thirty years ago, a college kid in Kentucky was caught growing marijuana plants in his closet. That turned him into a convicted felon, and though he’s been on the right side of the law ever since, he still can’t vote. On any job application, he must check the box next to “Have you ever been convicted of a felony?”

We know this story because Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky keeps telling it.

That a Southern Republican probably running for president is condemning such prosecutions as unfair speaks volumes on the collapsing support for the war on FROMA marijuana — part of the HARROP larger war on drugs.

Two states, Colorado Columnist and Washington, have already legalized recreational pot. And the Colorado Supreme Court has been considering a question no one would have dreamed of asking two decades ago: whether an employer may fire a worker for smoking pot.

So what do we do about the rest of the war — the war on heroin,cocaine,methamphetamine and the other nastier stuff? The answer is legalize them, too.

“What is the benefit,what have we derived from this drug war that even begins to offset the horrors we inflict on ourselves via this policy?” asks Dean Becker, a legalization advocate. He is editor of “To End the War on Drugs,” a collection of politically diverse views published by Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy.

Over the past 40 years, the war has put more than 45 million Americans under arrest and cost taxpayers $1 trillion.And what do we have to show for it? Drugs on the street are cheaper, more powerful and more abundant than ever.

The war has fueled gang wars in our cities and enriched the criminal foreign cartels. It has created a vile class system, turning millions of poor and working-class Americans into felons while largely turning a blind eye toward users of the same drugs in suburban cul-de-sacs.

And again, it’s all been for naught. This summer, counties circling Houston, where Becker lives, have seen eight busts of major marijuana growing operations. Law enforcement just stumbled across them.

And what does the arrest of a drug trafficker do? It creates more business for the other drug traffickers.

Wouldn’t legalizing all drugs set off a new explosion of drug use? Good question.

Undoubtedly, some would try drugs for the first time. But regulating the sale could limit the problems. Portugal decriminalized drugs in 2000 and saw little rise in use.

Becker is not a big fan of small steps in easing the drug laws, though he thinks that’s better than nothing.He wants full legalization.

Just decriminalizing drugs — that is, not arresting people possessing them but keeping their sale illegal — does not take criminals out of the business. And it stands in the way of regulating the drug-making now done by untrained chemists in primitive labs.

Furthermore, illegal businesses don’t get taxed.

Prohibition of the 1920s was “decrim.”

Alcoholic beverages couldn’t be legally sold, but one could drink them at home. A lot of good that did.

Make drugs legal; regulate them; and tax them. The final destination for the war on drugs should be oblivion,the sooner the better.

Letters to the Editor Obama criticism not deserved Sharon Leslie’s Sept. 29 Letter to the Editor criticized President Obama for giving a half-baked salute with a latte to the Marines who guarded him. She said, “How far we have sunk since JFK.” Her statement inferred that one must have military experience in order to be a good president. I can only think of three former presidents since 1932 who have had military experience. Military experience doesn’t necessarily make one a good president, any more than lack of military service makes one a bad president. This basic logical thinking is taught in Philosophy 1A classes and available to all who strive for clear thinking instead of knee jerk radical Right propaganda.

Wonder how Leslie knew President Obama was drinking a latte and not regular coffee? Or

did she assume it was latte in order to “gentrify” our president, a tactic often used by the radical Right to rally the troops against our first black president.

There has been much petty criticism from the Right criticizing President Obama since he first ran for office. He was criticized for not wearing an American flag lapel pin, then he didn’t hold his hand over his heart during “The Star-Spangled Banner.” No matter what he does, the Right will criticize him. He’s criticized for taking vacations, for playing golf, for drinking a latte — what next?

I’ve observed that the radical Right lacks compassion and understanding.

Possibly President Obama had been up all night working and needed caffeine. I wouldn’t wish his stressful work schedule on anyone.

Raymond Straub’s Sept. 29 letter twice criticized President Obama for not taking advice from anyone. There is a world of differschool’s excellence in the 201314 school year in athletics, academics, activities and sportsmanship. That’s everything from the gridiron to the pool to the performing stage and forensics. That’s all around achievement, something to be extra special proud of. Nice work, Bulldogs!

Reedsport cheers again Community Reedsport Charter School has a cheerleading squad again. The squad fell apart last year in a dispute between the advisor, some squad members and parents that resulted in the former advisor being asked to resign. That squad squabble left the school cheerless for most of the year. As

ence between criticizing from the sidelines and being involved in the action. There’s also quite a difference between those who urge boots on the ground at no risk to their own lives, and those who aren’t so quick to risk the lives of American troops. Straub’s reference to Obama as an “anti-war” president is straight out of the radical Right name-calling during the Vietnam War. Straub still didn’t make clear what his advice would be to help America with the terrorist situation.

Promises won’t keep you safe Wildfires and gas pipelines don't mix. Think! Any leaks in that iron clad (joke) natural gas pipeline through forest and streams (approximately 232 miles) will be so hot that no one will be with most squabbles, the past is best left in the past.

Obituaries and State Wehby accused Embrace Silhouettes bear ‘silent of plagiarizing freedom witness’ to health plan again in college violence

BY JONATHAN J. COOPER DEAR ABBY: I read your column often and find it deeply troubling when girls write you lamenting that they are “still single.” I’m 18, in my freshman year of college and I have never dated.

I’m perfectly OK with this.

I’m not writing to bash girls who are in high school relationships, but rather to show there’s an alternative.

Abby, please remind them that it’s fully acceptable for us to spend our teenage years single if we prefer. No one should feel pressured into a relationship because “everyone else is dating.”

Girlfriends, if you’re not ready for dating, then focus on discovering your beliefs, your purpose and what your DEAR talents, passions and values are. If you choose to do it accompanied by a p a r t n e r, that’s fine.

JEANNE But if you PHILLIPS prefer to journey alone or with your friends, that’s JUST as valid. — INDEPENDENT IN RACINE, WIS. DEAR INDEPENDENT: I agree! You are a self-confident, mature young woman, and you’re delivering an important message to your contemporaries. I hope they’ll give your message the consideration it deserves.

DEAR ABBY: I recently read an idea that I think should be shared with every parent in the world. You and your child/grandchild should establish a family password to be used if the child is ever approached by a stranger who says, “Your mother is sick and she asked me to come and get you.” By asking for the password, the child throws the would-be kidnapper off guard, and the child has an opportunity to flee. — VIGILANT IN VIRGINIA DEAR VIGILANT: That suggestion is one that appears on many child safety websites, and it’s certainly worth mentioning here. I’m sure many parents and grandparents will thank you for submitting it.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 13year-old girl in eighth grade, wrestling with a problem I never thought I’d have — a crush.

I have liked “Garrison” for two years now. He’s funny, sweet and cute, and he has stood up for me against bullies. We aren’t in any classes this year, so I only see him in the halls.

I have no clue what to do, since I have never had a crush before and I’m not going to date yet. It hurts my heart. I know crushes are fleeting, but can you help me figure out what to do in the meantime? — CRUSHED BY CRUSHING IN TENNESSEE DEAR CRUSHED: Your crush seems to be a young man with character, courage and self-confidence — because that’s what it takes to stand up to bullies.

Because he stood up for you, he already knows who you are. So when you see him in the hall, smile and say “Hi.” That’s not being pushy; it’s being friendly. And if you’re sitting around with an aching heart, I have a solution: Get up and get moving. Join a club, a sport, dance class or do some volunteering.

SALEM — Two weeks after she took down part of her website to scrub it of plagiarized material, Oregon Senate candidate Monica Wehby is in hot water again after a news organization discovered Friday that the website still contains sentences taken from others.

BuzzFeed reported that the health care section of Wehby’s website included phrases from the website of her former rival in the Republican primary, state Rep. Jason Conger. BuzzFeed had previously reported that Wehby’s original health care proposals were taken from a poll conducted by a super PAC led by Republican strategist Karl Rove, and that her economic policy included passages cribbed from Republican candidates in Ohio and California.

Wehby, a doctor, has run on her expertise on health care as she tries to unseat

Coast Guard to close Newport facility STATE

PORTLAND (AP) — The U.S. Coast Guard is preparing to close a facility in Newport where a search and rescue helicopter is stationed.

Lt. Dana Warr said Friday the 3.5-acre site has a hangar and barracks used on a rotation basis by four-person crews stationed permanently at the Coast Guard air station in North Bend.

The closure is scheduled Nov. 30.

For the time being, Warr says, the North Bend station will have four helicopters, but one will eventually be sent elsewhere.

Oregon cave put on US historic register GRANTS PASS (AP) — A cave in Oregon’s high desert where archaeologists have found the earliest DNA evidence of human habitation in North America has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.

The Paisley Five Mile Point Caves are part of a lava formation in the high desert outside the community of Paisley.

University of Oregon archaeologist Dennis Jenkins led excavations that turned up fossilized human feces — known as coprolites — that were radiocarbon dated to 14,300 years ago.

That is 1,000 years before the oldest stone points of the Clovis culture, which for much of the 20th century was believed to represent the first people in North America.

Caretaker sentenced for taking savings ALBANY (AP) — Authorities in Albany say a caretaker who stole $250,000 from an elderly woman and gambled away most of it has been sentenced to three and a half years in prison.

The Albany DemocratHerald reported Thursday that 46-year-old Ana Veronica Hagan pleaded guilty last week to criminal mistreatment and theft, and was sentenced in Linn County Circuit Court.

Prosecutor Jonathan Crow said investigators tracked Hagan’s spending though a gambling club card from a New Mexico race track and casino and found she lost about $233,000.

Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley. The revelation that her health proposals are not original has been damaging.

Wehby used sentences from Conger’s health care plan in an op-ed that was published under her byline in the Eugene Register-Guard on July 31. Much of the language from the op-ed appeared days later in the health care section of her website, according to Internet archives.

Wehby removed the entire issues section of her website Sept. 17 after BuzzFeed’s original plagiarism reports and only recently put it back online. Some phrases were changed.

Wehby has maintained that she’s expressing common Republican suggestions for fixing the health care system.

The persistent plagiarism stories have played into the hands of Merkley, who has tried hard to tie Wehby to the national Republican Party in a state dominated by Democrats.

Colorado school board vote doesn’t appease its critics GOLDEN, Colo. (AP) — Students, parents and teachers in suburban Denver vow to continue demonstrating against a school board’s new conservative majority after it refused to back off plans to review Advanced Placement U.S. history courses for what some see as anti-American content.

The Jefferson County Board of Education voted Thursday night to lay the groundwork for a review of curriculum, with the AP history course likely the first to get a deeper look. The elective course has been criticized by the Republican National Committee and the Texas State Board of Education, which has told teachers not to teach according to the course’s new framework. Being taught for the first time this year, it gives greater attention to the history of North America and its native people before colonization and their clashes with Europeans, but critics say it downplays the settlers’ success in establishing a new nation.

The Colorado board didn’t vote on its original proposal to review the history course with an eye toward promoting patriotism and downplaying social disorder — language students have blasted in school-time protests across the district. However, students and other activists say the board’s new approach to include students on existing curriculum review committees doesn’t satisfy them because they believe board members will ultimately try to change the history course to suit their views.

Students and parents — along with Jefferson County teachers who are in their own fight with the board over evaluations and merit pay — demonstrated along a busy boulevard during Friday’s afternoon rush hour as passing cars honked their horns.

The College Board administers the course and other AP classes, which are meant to prepare students for college and give them a chance at earning college credit. It says the framework — an outline of the course built

By The Associated Press

Protestors engage with passing motorists in a demonstration against the Jefferson County School Board conservative majority's plan to form a special committee to reevaluate school curriculum, in tLakewood, Colo., Friday. around themes like “politics and power” and “environment and geography” — isn’t meant to be an exhaustive list of everything to be studied, and teachers are always free to add material required by their states.

For example, Martin Luther King Jr. isn’t mentioned in the framework, but the Black Panthers are. The College Board’s instructions

about the new framework say teachers know to include King but asked for help with less obvious examples of people and events to discuss around some of the themes.

But besides who is mentioned and who isn’t, veteran history teacher Larry Krieger, of Montgomery, New Jersey, faults the new framework for having a global, revisionist view.

Tough Texas abortion law may be going to Supreme Court EL PASO, Texas (AP) — Abortion-rights lawyers are predicting “a showdown” at the U.S. Supreme Court after federal appellate judges allowed full implementation of a law that has closed more than 80 percent of Texas’ abortion clinics.

As of Friday, abortion services for many Texas women required a round trip of more than 200 miles — or a border-crossing into Mexico or New Mexico.

Operators of some of the affected clinics and their lawyers from the Center for Reproductive Rights vowed

to appeal Thursday’s decision by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans that allows Texas to fully enforce a sweeping abortion law approved by the Republican-controlled legislature last year. They depicted the law — and similar measures proposed in other states — as an unacceptable infringement of the Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v.

Wade ruling establishing a nationwide right to abortion.

“This case is ultimately going to end up with the Supreme Court,” said the reproductive rights center’s

president, Nancy Northup.

“It is going to be a showdown ... on whether the promise of Roe will have meaning in the United States.”

Two years ago, Texas had more than 40 abortion facilities. For now, no more than eight will be open, due to portions of the law that require abortion providers to obtain hospital admitting privileges and impose hospital-level operating standards on the clinics.

Among the clinics affected by Thursday’s ruling were a facility in the south Texas city of McAllen that served

Crew disinfects apartment where Ebola patient stayed DALLAS (AP) — A hazardous-materials crew on Friday decontaminated the Texas apartment where an Ebola patient was staying when he got sick, while public-health officials cut by half the number of people being monitored for any symptoms of the deadly disease.

Hours later, the family that was living in the apartment was moved to a private residence in a gated community that was offered by a volunteer.

The decontamination team was to collect bed sheets, towels and a mattress used by the

infected man before he was hospitalized, as well as a suitcase and other personal items belonging to Thomas Eric Duncan, officials said.

The materials were sealed in industrial barrels that were to be stored until they can be hauled away for permanent disposal, probably by incineration at a landfill.

The first Ebola diagnosis in the U.S. has raised concerns about whether the disease that has killed 3,400 people in West Africa could spread in the U.S. Federal health officials say they are confident they can keep it in check.

Elsewhere, NBC News reported that an American freelance cameraman working for the network in Liberia has tested positive for the virus and will be flown back to the United States, along with the rest of the news crew.

Neighbors stood on their balconies and watched the family’s grim departure from behind a black tarp hung to shield their front door from view.

The family was placed in a Dallas County deputy’s patrol car and driven away, apparently leaving with nothing more than the clothes they wore.

Officials of Whole Women’s Health, which operates the McAllen clinic, said the facility would remain open as a “safe house” while dozens of women who had scheduled abortions there were counseled on alternatives.

Things to know about new kids’ respiratory bug NEW YORK (AP) — A wave of severe respiratory illnesses has swept the country in the last two months, propelled by what was long considered an uncommon germ.

The enterovirus 68 has caused serious breathing problems in many children, and now is being eyed as possible factor in at least four deaths, and muscle weakness and paralysis in children in Colorado and perhaps other states.

Q: Is this virus new?

A: No. It was first identified in the U.S. in 1962, and small numbers of cases have been regularly reported since 1987.

Because it’s not routinely tested for, it may have spread widely in previous years without being identified in people who just seemed to have a cold. It’s one of a group of viruses that contribute to an uptick in cold-like illnesses every year around the start of school.

In August, the virus got more attention when hospitals in Kansas City, Missouri and Chicago had many children with trouble breathing. Tests found enterovirus 68.

Q: How many people have been severely sickened by the virus?

A: Lab tests by the CDC have confirmed illness caused by the germ in 538 people in 43 states and the District of Columbia.

Almost all are children.

Testing is limited and has been focused on very sick children, so it’s likely that many, many more people — including adults — have been infected.

Q: Why are most of the severe cases in children?

A: They generally have not been exposed to enteroviruses as often as adults are, and are less likely to have developed immunity to them.

Q: Why are more severe illnesses from

enterovirus 68 being reported this year?

A: That’s a mystery.

Health officials have not found a recent mutation or other change in the virus that would cause it to become more dangerous.

Clusters have been reported in other countries in recent years.

Q: What about the reports of deaths?

A: This week the CDC said four people who were infected with enterovirus 68 died last month, but what role the virus played in the deaths is unclear.

Investigators are trying to sort out if the viral infection was coincidental, a contributing factor or a main cause.

Q: And what about the reports of weakness?

A: Last week, the CDC sent doctors an alert about nine (now 10) children at a Denver-area hospital who suffered muscle weakness or paralysis in the neck, back or limbs about a week after they had a fever and respiratory illness.

Four of the children tested positive for enterovirus 68.But health officials don’t know whether the virus caused any of the children’s arm and leg weaknesses or whether it’s just a germ they coincidentally picked up.

Q: What can I do to protect my child?

A: The CDC recommends making sure children and their parents are up to date on all vaccinations, including those against respiratory diseases like flu, measles and whooping cough. The other advice has to do with basic hygiene — wash hands frequently with soap and water, stay away from sick people and disinfect objects that a sick person has touched. See a doctor right away if your child starts having severe problems breathing, develops difficulty moving their limbs or walking or standing.

“At this point we have no reason to doubt the authenticity of the video released earlier today. We will continue to use every tool at our disposal — military, diplomatic, law enforcement and intelligence - to try to bring Peter home to his family,” Hayden said.

The Associated Press could not verify the video’s authenticity, though it was released in the same manner as other Islamic State group videos and the masked militant sounded similar to the one who carried out the other slayings.

In a statement, the British Foreign Office said it was working to verify the video.

“If true, this is a further disgusting murder,” the statement read. “We are offering the family every support possible; they ask to be left alone at this time.”

British Prime Minister David Cameron said Henning’s apparent slaying showed “how barbaric and repulsive these terrorists are.”

Video: Islamic State group beheads British hostage CAIRO (AP) — An Internet video released Friday purports to show an Islamic State group fighter beheading British hostage Alan Henning, the fourth such killing carried out by the extremist group now targeted in U.S.-led airstrikes.

The video mirrored other beheading videos shot by the Islamic State group, which now holds territory along the border of Syria and Iraq, and ended with a militant threatening a man they identified as an American named Peter Kassig.

“Obama, you have started your aerial bombardment of Shams (Syria), which keeps on striking our people, so it is only right that we continue to strike the neck of your people,” the masked militant in the video said.

National Security Council Spokesperson Caitlin Hayden confirmed that Kassig was being held by Islamic State militants, in a statement issued

his claims or if he was just making assumptions. Rowe didn’t provide evidence of increased crime in other towns with marijuana dispensaries. Councilor Dave Chappelle wasn’t as worried about crime: “Even though (criminals) are not the brightest,” they won’t break into these facilities since there will likely be security systems in place. of Jennings, David Coquille, said he used to work with juvenile and adult drug offenders.

“You are going to have some burden on your police department dealing with some legalized marijuana,” Jennings said. “I don’t think (the tax) is unreasonable, even though I realize taxes are unpopular.”

Councilor Loran Wiese worried the new ordinance would be “an exercise in futility,” since he wonders if the state will get all tax money despite individual municipalities’ ordinances.

His concerns have echoed across the state, as many wonder if the state will swoop in and take tax dollars from cities who have enacted these ordinances. Jennings said those cities that don’t pass a marijuana sales tax before the election will “lose out totally” if Measure 91 passes.

At the beginning of the meeting, Wiese said he was against taxing medical marijuana “because we don’t tax other individual drugs in the city,” though he voted in favor of the ordinance. The

difference, Rowe said, is that the Federal Drug Administration does not deem medical marijuana a “medicine.”

“If it’s not medicine, what is it? Aspirin?” Wiese said.

Rowe said the tax rates were based off those other cities have adopted.

“I want to make it very clear: This is not an endorsement of legalizing marijuana,” he said. “This is not an endorsement of wanting these potential facilities in our community.”

Karla had assumed that, since it was a state wayside, she was allowed to camp there. Apparently, she had missed the nearby sign saying that drivers may not park there from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.

A few minutes later, the

officer checked out a conversion van parked at South Hemlock and Fernwood streets. Inside was an unclothed couple, Dustin and Stephanie, who also had not paid close attention to the city’s signage.

That said, there are no signs that explicitly forbid overnight camping at Cannon Beach at the moment, Bowman said.

“So there’s not a lot telling them they can’t do it,” he said. And, in fact, there’s actually a lot of online material telling them they can do it, which makes enforcement an uphill battle. “We’ve run into several people who’ve logged onto websites that tell them that it’s OK to camp in Cannon Beach.”

Unless the lodgers have been warned multiple times, officers typically give subjects a warning and tell them where they can go, such as the North Cannon Viewpoint and the gravel lot just south of that.

Washington Judge orders release of Guantanamo force-feeding videotapes WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge on Friday ordered the public release of 28 videotapes of a hungerstriking Guantanamo Bay prisoner strike being forcibly removed from his cell and force-fed.

Lawyers for the prisoner, Abu Wa’el Dhiab, have challenged his treatment as abusive.

Numerous news media outlets, including The Associated Press, had asked the court on June 20 to unseal the videotapes, which are classified “secret.”

U.S. District Court Judge Gladys Kessler granted the news media’s request, although Kessler said the tapes will remain sealed until some information on them is redacted. The material to be removed includes identifying information of everyone on

the tapes except for the prisoner. She said faces other than Dhiab’s will be obscured, as will voices and names.

“Protection of the identities of Guantanamo Bay staff is a legitimate goal,” Kessler wrote. “Adequate protection can be provided by appropriate audio and visual edits, for example, blurring faces and identifying portions of uniforms, and blacking-out written materials on walls.”

The government could appeal her ruling.

Dhiab’s lawyer, Jon Eisenberg, said that “we are very gratified by this decision, which will enable the American people to see with their own eyes the sorts of abuses that are being heaped on these peacefully hungerstriking detainees.”

Dhiab was told in the

Young legal stars spend heady year at Supreme Court Job can be a springboard to career prestige ■

WASHINGTON (AP) — Joshua Matz didn’t bother waiting to write about the Supreme Court until he went to work there. He teamed with a renowned Harvard law professor to finish a book about the court before he started his year as a law clerk to Justice Anthony Kennedy.

Unlike Matz, Christopher Michel is not listed as an author of the book he worked on years before his clerkship with Chief Justice John Roberts.

But former President George W. Bush offered warm praise for onetime presidential speechwriter Michel as his collaborator on his memoir, “Decision Points.” Bush said in the book’s acknowledgements that Michel’s help made the project surprisingly enjoyable.

Matz and Michel stand out among their fellow clerks at the high court because of their book experiences. But they also fit right in among the young elite of the legal world who tend to be accomplished and polished beyond their years, and more likely than not to leave a mark on their profession.

Like the justices they serve, they are overwhelmingly graduates of Harvard and Yale. The 24 men and 12 women in this year’s class of clerks will spend the next 10 months reading thousands of appeals filed with the court, researching cases the justices agree to hear and drafting early versions of their bosses’ opinions.

They are sworn to public silence during their time at the court. Supreme Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said no clerks would comment for this report. A private dining room in the court’s cafeteria allows the clerks to talk over lunch without worrying about who might be listening.

Bonuses of more than $300,000 await those who enter private practice.

Prestigious teaching jobs, judgeships, political careers and even Supreme Court seats are real possibilities.

The ranks of former clerks include Roberts, Justices Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan, and Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Mike Lee, R-Utah, and Richard Blumenthal, DConn.

In “Uncertain Justice: The Roberts Court and the Constitution,” Matz and Law professor Harvard Laurence Tribe argue that on a range of big issues, political gridlock and societal change have increased the court’s influence. One of those issues is gay marriage, on which they wrote that “the court left the door open just wide enough to retreat from the field if it so chooses when it accepts another marriage case.”

Matz now finds himself working at the court at a moment when the decision to take on same-sex marriage appears imminent. He works

in the office of the justice who has written the court’s three major pro-gay rights decisions and almost certainly will determine the outcome once more.

“He was impressive enough that I felt I should call Justice Kennedy, not just write a letter, but call him and emphasize what an unusual catch Joshua would be,” Tribe said in a telephone interview.

Justices recruit their law clerks in several ways. Some look to like-minded appellate judges or take recommendations from prominent legal scholars such as Tribe, a law clerk to Justice Potter Stewart in the 1960s. Others rely on their former clerks to screen potential hires.

Justice Clarence Thomas gets together once a month with his former clerks, and those gatherings help build relationships and a network where they can trade professional and personal advice, said Carrie Severino, a clerk during the 2007-08 term and now chief counsel at the conservative Judicial Crisis Network.

“Recommendations from former clerks always carry a lot of weight with the justice,” Severino said.

Thomas’ choices tend to share his conservative ideology, Severino said as she recalled the justice’s vivid description of the situation 15 years ago.

“I’m not going to hire clerks who have profound disagreements with me,” Thomas said in Dallas in 1999 in remarks preserved on website.

C-SPAN’s “Someone said that is like trying to train a pig. It’s a waste of your time, and it aggravates the pig.”

Among Thomas’ clerks is Jennifer Bandy, who led College Dartmouth Republicans during the 2008 presidential campaign.

Bandy also has been nationally ranked as a competitive clay pigeons shooter.

Many lawyers who work for the justices are just a couple of years out of law school, and often have had prior jobs with one or two lower court judges.

But one of Justice Samuel Alito’s clerks is Brigham Young University law professor Aaron Nielson, who teaches about the federal courts and other topics.

Another BYU professor, David Moore, clerked for Alito in his second full term as a justice.

“I was definitely one of the older clerks,” Moore said in an interview. He said his experiences teaching and practicing law helped with the steep learning curve. He had three young children at the time he clerked, but despite the pressure of the job and some late nights, he said he could spend quality time with his family during their year in Washington.

Nielson has four children, which sets him apart from his colleagues. He also is a bit older than most clerks. But at 34, Nielson is still a rising legal star.

spring he would be resettled in Uruguay, along with five other Guantanamo prisoners. But as the months have dragged on and the transfer put on hold, his standoff with military officials has only deteriorated, at times turning violent.

Dhiab, a Syrian prisoner, has been held at the Navyrun prison for terrorist suspects at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, since August 2002.

Standard protocol at penal institutions nationwide is to videotape forcible cell extractions. What’s unusual about these videotapes is that many of them include footage of forcefeedings in addition to forcible cell extractions.

Hunger strikes at Guantanamo Bay have been taking place since the early days of the island facility’s

use as a prison for terrorist suspects following the Sept.

11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

In early 2013, as many as 100 detainees began a hunger strike to protest their uncertain fate. The U.S. has long disclosed how many are refusing to eat and whether they meet military guidelines to be force fed. But late last year, the disclosure ended.

The former Navy commander at Guantanamo Bay, Rear Adm. Richard Butler, said in a court declaration filed in July that even though the forced cell extraction videos are lawful, humane and appropriate, they “are particularly susceptible to use as propaganda and to incite a public reaction because of their depiction of forcible ... guard interaction with detainees.”

World Heavy fighting hits Syrian border town BEIRUT (AP) — Islamic State militants heavily shelled a Kurdish town on Syria’s border with Turkey on Friday as jihadi fighters prepared an allout offensive for the strategic site, whose capture would provide a direct link between areas under their control in Aleppo and their stronghold in Raqqa to the east.

The fighting came as Turkey’s prime minister pledged his country would do what it could to prevent the fall of Kobani, although he did not spell out what assistance Turkey would provide.

Turkey’s parliament gave the government new powers Thursday to launch military incursions into Syria and Iraq, and to allow foreign forces to use its territory for possible operations against the Islamic State group.

Kurdish officials and activists said that Islamic State group fighters had so far not penetrated the frontier town as fighting raged on the eve of a major Muslim holiday.

“It looks like they are going to attack tonight and try to enter (Kobani) on the day of the feast,” said Nasser Haj Mansour, a defense official in Syria’s Kurdish region, referring to the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha that begins on Saturday in most Muslim countries.

“Kurdish fighters are ready and prepared to repel any attack.”

Hong Kong protesters cancel talks after scuffles HONG KONG (AP) — Pro-democracy protesters called off planned talks with the government on political reforms Friday after mobs tried to drive them from the streets where they have held a weeklong, largely peaceful demonstration.

The protesters urged residents to join their cause and demanded that the police protect their encampments.

The Hong Kong Federation of Students, one of the groups leading the demonstrations that drew tens of thousands of people earlier this week, said they saw no choice but to cancel the dialogue.

“The government is demanding the streets be cleared. We call upon all Hong Kong people to immediately come to protect our positions and fight to the end,” the group said in a statement.

They demanded the government hold someone responsible for the scuffles Friday, the worst disturbances since police used tear gas and pepper spray on protesters last weekend to try to disperse them.

Medical first: Baby born to woman who got new womb LONDON (AP) — In a medical first, a woman in Sweden has given birth after receiving a womb transplant, the doctor who performed the pioneering procedure said Friday.

The 36-year-old mother received a uterus from a close family friend last year.

Her baby boy was born prematurely but healthy last month, and mother and child are now at home and well. The identities of the woman and her male partner were not disclosed.

“The baby is fantastic,” said Dr. Mats Brannstrom, a professor of obstetrics and

gynecology at the University of Gothenburg and Stockholm IVF who led the research and delivered the baby with the help of his wife, a midwife. “But it is even better to see the joy in the parents and how happy he made them.”

Brannstrom said it was

“still sinking in that we have actually done it.”

The feat opens up a new but still experimental alternative for some of the thousands of women each year who are unable to have children because they lost a uterus to cancer or were born without one.

WORLD D I G E S T Pope faces issues at family conference VATICAN CITY (AP) — From his stylish living room overlooking St. Peter’s Square, Cardinal Walter Kasper doesn’t come off as a figure at the center of one of the greatest storms swirling in Catholicism in decades.

The German theologian says he fully expected the knives would come out when, at Pope Francis’ request, he made a suggestion that has dominated debate ahead of a landmark meeting on Catholic family life that opens this weekend. The issue is not abortion, contraception or gay marriage. It is the fate of Catholics who divorce — and the outcome will be a key test of how far Francis’ reform agenda will go.

Beach in Jamaica slowly vanishing NEGRIL, Jamaica (AP) — Tourists from around the world are drawn to a stretch of palm-fringed shoreline known as “Seven Mile Beach,” a crescent of white sand along the turquoise waters of Jamaica’s western coast. But the sands are slipping away and Jamaicans fear the beach, someday, will need a new nickname.

Some sections,however,are barely wide enough for a decent-sized beach towel and the Jamaican National Environment and Planning Agency says sand is receding at a rate of more than a meter (yard) a year.

“The beach could be totally lost within 30 years,” said Anthony McKenzie, a senior director at the agency.

Cameron on surprise visit to Afghanistan KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron on Friday support for pledged Afghanistan’s newly sworn-in president and the country’s new unity government, saying during a surprise visit to Kabul that Britain is committed to helping Afghans build a more secure and prosperous future.

Cameron was the first of world leaders to meet Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai since his inauguration on Monday. The two had a meeting in Kabul on Friday morning and later held a joint press conference.

“Britain has paid a heavy price for helping to bring stability to this country,” Cameron said, paying tribute to the 453 British servicemen and women who died while serving in Afghanistan.

Israel on alert as holidays coincide JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli police were on high alert Friday to avert possible clashes as Jews and Muslims prepare to observe their faith’s major holidays of Yom Kippur and Eid al-Adha, which overlap this year for the first time in more than three decades.

Reinforced police contingents had been deployed across Israel as a precaution against sectarian violence, said police spokeswoman Luba Samri.

Concerns were particularly high in the four Israeli cities with significant Muslim minorities: Jerusalem, the Tel Aviv twin city of Jaffa — Yafo in Hebrew — and also in Haifa and Acre.

At campuses, cracks in peaceful facade BANGKOK (AP) — The university students who organized a seminar in Thailand on the demise of dictatorships knew that one particularly sensitive topic had to stay off-limits: their own country.

Since overthrowing an elected government in May, this nation’s military rulers have jailed opponents who dared speak out and silenced the rest with the threat of prosecution. They have censored the media, dispersed protesters and forbidden open debate over the nation’s fate.

So when roughly 150 people attended the latest in a series of talks Thammasat called University “Democracy Classroom,” one weary student reminded all those present they should only discuss failed regimes — “please repeat after me, OVERSEAS.”

Pirates soar past Douglas Sharp has six TD passes in shutout win over Trojans ■

BY GEORGE ARTSITAS The World

COOS BAY — Andrew Sharp couldn’t believe it himself.

Marshfield’s quarterback flirted with perfection, completing his first 12 passes on the way to 17for-20 passing for 257 yards and six touchdowns against Douglas on Friday.

All that and his final snap was with 27.1 seconds to go until halftime.

“It just blows my mind,” Sharp said. “My receivers just got open and I made the right reads and found them the ball.”

Sharp, making his third every varsity start at quarterback, had a breakout performance in a statement making 46-0 win over Douglas on Friday at Pete Susick Stadium.

Bulldogs win at Siuslaw THE WORLD North Bend kept its quest for the Far West League title alive Friday, beating host Siuslaw 34-21 in Florence.

The Bulldogs improved to 2-0 in the Far West League, taking out the Vikings in a game that was hard fought until North Bend dominated time of possession in the fourth quarter.

Up 28-21 going into the final period, North Bend only allowed one Siuslaw possession in the fourth quarter — a three-andout — before grinding out its fifth straight win to start the year.

North Bend’s offense outgained Siuslaw 412 yards to 181 and had 19 first downs to the Vikings’ six.

Siuslaw held an early 7-0 lead when Billy Jones returned a fumble 35 yards for a touchdown.

North Bend’s Drew Matthews had a monster day, taking a 70yard interception back for a touchdown and finishing with seven catches for 90 yards, including a 13-yard touchdown catch in the third. Bulldogs running back Luke Lucero had 98 yards on 21 carries and a touchdown as well as a 13-yard receiving score from cousin Cam Lucero in the second quarter.

In the third, Siuslaw’s Keoni Castro had an interception he returned inside the Bulldog 10yard line, eventually setting up a Joe Dotson 1-yard quarterback keeper for a touchdown.

Later in the third, after Siuslaw cut the score to 28-21 on a Christian Jakobsen 3-yard touchdown run and subsequently recovered an onside kick, Levi Rider intercepted Dotson to regain momentum for North Bend.

Cam Lucero also added a 4yard touchdown scamper in the third before Luke Lucero’s 2-yard touchdown in the fourth finished off the game’s scoring.

BANDON — Myrtle Point entered Friday night’s Sunset Conference football opener at Bandon without its top running back.

But with Anthony Stoddard out because of illness, Jake Miller and Isaac Godfrey picked up the load, leading the Bobcats to a 22-6 win over the Tigers.

“I thought Jake Miller and Isaac both ran really hard,” Myrtle Point coach Marty Stallard said.

The Bobcats had a goal of controlling the clock and keeping the ball away from Bandon’s passing attack. By the end of the night, Miller had gained 209 yards and Godfrey 100 more.

“We ran it down their throats,” Godfrey said.

Miller also was on the throwing end of a pivotal play in the opening minutes that gave Myrtle Point an early lead.

On a third-and-13 play on the game’s opening drive, he took a handoff from quarterback Tristan Mussatti, ran to the right, then threw the ball over the Bandon defenders, hitting Damon Price in stride for a 51-yard touchdown.

Bandon quarterback Quentin Coomer slides onto the ground before getting hit on a keeper play Friday night against Myrtle Point.

Miller’s conversion pass to Godfrey gave the Bobcats the lead for good at 8-0.

“That was a great momentum starter,” Miller said. “It’s always good when you come out and have a big play.”

Myrtle Point’s defense also provided big plays, forcing four turnovers — a fumble recovery by Godfrey and interceptions by Jared Sams (twice) and Brady Schrader.

“We’ve just got to clean up our play,” Bandon coach Silia Polamalu said, referring to the miscues and

missed opportunities.

Bandon got its lone touchdown on its second possession, when Quentin Coomer found Trae Dyer on a pass and then Ben Strain had a big block to set Dyer free down the sideline for a 42-yard score.

But after that, the Tigers repeatedly came up empty.

In addition to the turnovers, the Tigers had three other drives end with fourth-down incompletions deep in Myrtle Point territory.

The Bobcats added to their lead with a 6-yard touchdown by Miller in the second quarter and a

bruising 11-yard run by Godfrey in the third.

Myrtle Point compensated well for the absence of Stoddard.

“He’s definitely a big loss,” Miller said. “The team effort helps us.”

Godfrey agreed.

“If you lose somebody, you all have to do better,” he said.

The Bobcats were without a few other key players because of injuries.

“For mixing and matching parts, I thought we played really well,” Stallard said. “I thought defensively, we did a nice job with what they wanted to do.”

Myrtle Point only allowed Bandon 20 yards rushing on 16 attempts. Coomer completed 17 of 36 passes for 244 yards, but also had the three interceptions and had teammates drop a few passes.

Dyer led the team with six catches for 144 yards. Strain, Shannon Forty and Jacob Taylor caught three passes each.

Despite the loss, Polamalu felt good about how his team played.

“We did a lot of good things,” he said. “(Myrtle Point) is a really physical team.”

Bulldogs take control in Far West League

BY JOHN GUNTHER The World

NORTH BEND — Facing its first big test of the Far West Leauge season, North Bend’s boys soccer team jumped out to a quick lead against visiting BrookingsHarbor and cruised to a 5-0 win Thursday.

The victory put North Bend alone in first place midway through the league season.

The match was only a couple of minutes old when the Bulldogs struck for two goals.

The first came on a strong throw-in from James Jordan, which Ignacio Aguilar put into the net. A few moments later, Aguilar fed a pass over BrookingsHarbor’s defenders and Keaten Baker ran it down and pushed it past Brookings-Harbor goalkeeper Carlos Lira.

“We wanted to put a lot of pressure on them right in the beginning,” North Bend coach Tom Zomerschoe said.

Brookings-Harbor settled down and kept the margin at 2-0 until halftime, but the Bulldogs added three goals in the second half for the final margin.

Aguilar scored his second goal just four minutes into the second

Bruins was impressive, especially since the Bruins entered the match allowing just six goals all season, and none in league play.

“I thought we played great,” Bream said. “The nerves got to everyone in the locker room. We stepped on the field and they went away.”

NORTH BEND 3025 BROADWAY 541-756-2091

North Bend’s team speed was a big factor throughout the match, as was the team’s depth.

“One advantage is we have 15 guys that could all be starting 11,” Tom Zomerschoe said.

While North Bend was doing great things in its offense, the Bulldogs also limited the Bruins to only a few good chances to score, all easily stopped by goalie Chris More online: Seldon.

See the gallery at “Our goal theworldlink.com. was to take the possession game away from them and when they had possession to pressure the ball,” Zomerschoe said.

The Bulldogs did both those things well, defender Brant Hamner said.

“I think we shut them down,” he said. “We got the ball away from them and got it to the midfield.”

Sports MHS volleyball stays perfect in Far West League

Bulldogs, Bruins battle to a 1-1 tie

BY JOHN GUNTHER The World

NORTH BEND — North Bend and Brookings-Harbor entered Thursday’s Far West League match at Vic Adams Field tied for first place.

They left the match the same way after playing to a 1-1 draw in a match dominated by the defenses much of the night.

“I think we did good,” said North Bend’s Brianna Cole. “We stepped up.

This was our first real challenge in league.”

Cole played a role in North Bend’s goal, which came just over five minutes into the match.

She took control of the ball among several players from both teams to the right of the goal and tapped it to the middle of the pitch, where Molly Joyce knocked it past Brookings-Harbor goalkeeper Kylie Johnson to give North Bend an early lead.

“I was where I was supposed to be just in case it made it through,” Joyce said.

A year ago, Joyce was on the Brookings-Harbor side — she transferred to North Bend this fall.

“It was a little awkward,” she said, adding that the Brookings-Harbor players would shout out “Stop Molly,” instead of shouting out her number like other teams do. “It was fun, too.”

North Bend had several other opportunities in the first half, but didn’t score again.

The Bruins got the equalizer goal early in the second half on one of the few mistakes by North Bend’s defense.

Miscommunication among the defenders allowed a kick by the Bruins to get back toward North Bend goalkeeper Kadie Forderer, who came out from the box to try to clear the ball, but didn’t kick the ball solidly.

The Far West League title almost certainly will come down to the final match of the season in Brookings, with the league champion guaranteed a bye through the play-in round and into the final 16-team bracket for Class 4A. “We still have an opportunity to finish league the way we want to,” North Bend coach Dustin Hood said.

Hood said the tie was disappointing, but the tightly contested match was good.

“It would be nice to play games like that every time we have a contest,” he said.

As it is, the Bulldogs and Bruins will try to keep their skills sharp through the next four matches until they meet again Oct. 21.

“What a team win to have going into this new league.”

The Red Devils built a 226 lead with three straight touchdowns over the middle two quarters. Joe Scolari scored on a 5-yard run and caught a 5-yard touchdown pass from Zach Breitkreutz.

Moe Faith finished the scoring with a 3-yard run.

Pleasant Hill rallied behind a 1-yard run from quarterback Landon Housel and then the second touchdown pass of the game from Housel to Dylan Mattie. But the Red Devils stuffed the conversion run after the second touchdown, preserving the lead, and Austin Layton intercepted a pass in the final minute to seal the victory.

“There was a lot of big

moments in the game,” Thomason said. “It was a tremendous effort by everybody.”

The Red Devils spread the offense around. Faith and Wyatt Yates both ran for 88 yards and Scolari rushed for 50 yards.

“They were really trying to stop Joe,” Thomason said.

“That’s the beauty of our offense. If they stop one thing, we have two or three other answers, and that’s exactly what we did.”

“Our biggest challenge is to not overlook Creswell next week,” Thomason said.

“They have two linemen

and three skill players that are studs that we couldn’t match up with.”

Joey Herr scored Reedsport’s touchdown.

“We didn’t play our best, but I don’t think our best would have been good enough,” Nelson said.

Mountain Skyline League Powers 56, Elkton 6: The Cruisers rolled to their second straight league win.

College Football

Beavers face prolific offense in Colorado BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Sefo Liufau’s right arm isn’t so sore and Nelson Spruce’s hands don’t hurt.

Colorado’s prolific duo is ready to go at it again when the Oregon State Beavers (31, 0-1 Pac-12) make their first trip to Boulder since 1988.

The Buffaloes (2-3, 0-2) are coming off a gut-wrenching 59-56 double-overtime loss at Cal in which Liufau completed 46 of 67 passes for 449 yards and seven touchdowns.

Never before had he thrown that many times in a game.

“No, not even close.

Probably not even close to 50.

It was something new to me but I’m totally fine, my arm’s fine. We’re good to go,” Liufau said.

Spruce had 19 catches for 176 yards and three TDs

against the Bears.

“You don’t focus on the numbers really, you go back to work,” Spruce said earlier in the week.

Spruce leads the nation in receptions (56), yards receiving (697) and touchdown catches (10).

“He is a good football player. He’s got great ball skills down the field, he’s got quickness and strength,” Beavers coach Mike Riley said. “... I think we need three guys to cover him.”

Other things to keep an eye on Saturday when the Beavers visit Boulder for just the fourth time in the last half century: Close calls: They don’t count in the standings, but Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre believes the Buffs can take some positives out of that heart-breaking loss.

Oregon State at Colorado Time: 1 p.m. TV: Pac-12 Network.

Radio: KBBR (1340 AM).

“Sometimes, we just never came back from anything” last season, MacIntyre said.

“Now, this team may not get the result we want, but we’re going to be right there fighting for it, I believe, all the time.”

Substance over style: Oregon State QB Sean Mannion is a throwback thrower.

“In today’s college football, the (Brett) Hundleys and the (Marcus) Mariotas that can run around, they’re really good quarterbacks but, they have a little more flash so to

speak maybe because of their ability to run and kind of wow you with their feet,” MacIntyre said. “Mannion does not wow you with his feet.”

But with his arm, he does: Mannion is 866 yards shy of breaking the Pac-12 record for career passing yards.

At 6-foot-5 and 227 pounds, Mannion looks and plays more like Peyton Manning than Russell Wilson.

“I don’t want to stereotype him but Hundley and Mariota and those types of guys are more dual threats and he’s a drop back, can make every throw, stands tall in the pocket,” MacIntyre said. “He is tall but, he stands tall in the pocket. He can throw it from this hash to over there on that sideline for 25 yards on a dart, he can take it and, at the last second, launch it 60 yards.”

Ground game: Despite his prolific passing ways, Mannion might have to rely more on his improved ground game this week with top deep threat Victory Bolden doubtful for Saturday.

Junior Richard Mullaney is the most veteran receiver on the team, but playing out of position at flanker. Mullaney has 81 catches for his career; the rest of the current wide receiver corps have a combined 14 career catches if Bolden is out.

Mannion needs four completions to reach 1,000 for his career. He will be the 24th player in NCAA history to reach the milestone.

Beavers running backs Terron Ward and Storm Woods each have 100-yardplus rushing games this season. Arizona is the only other team in the Pac-12 with two

100-yard rushers.

Top target: Spruce will certainly get some consideration for the Biletnikoff Award that goes to college football’s top receiver. But is it really that far-fetched to put him in the Heisman Trophy race, too?

“Wow, that’s a big conversation,” MacIntyre said. “I definitely think he needs to be in the Biletnikoff conversation. I definitely think that.

There’s no doubt about that. I think he’s a heck of a football player for us.

“Everybody giggled under their breath at me when I said, ‘He’s a first-team AllPac 12 receiver.’ I said it all fall, I said it all preseason, I said it in the spring,” MacIntyre said. “That’s what he is. I think he definitely needs to be in the Biletnikoff talk for sure.”

Ducks get winged by Arizona

BY GEORGE ARTSITAS The World

EUGENE — With Arizona in victory formation, Oregon’s Mark Helfrich flipped up the microphone on his headset, tucked each of his palms under his armpits, and stared up to the scoreboard until it read triple zeroes.

Helfrich, wearing a five o’clock shadow that fit misery perfectly, was surprisingly stone face as the Duck’s 31-24 upset became official.

No disarming smiles, no grimaces and no sign of ocular precipitation. He was stoic, ready to be the scapegoat in Oregon’s first home loss since November 2012.

“We didn’t make enough plays to win and that’s starting with me,” Marshfield graduate Helfrich said in a decidedly sullen post game press conference. “We weren’t smart enough and there was a lot of uncharacteristic errors tonight from a communication standpoint and from a penalties standpoint and those are things we need to get rectified.”

After Oregon’s quarterback Marcus Mariota finished his ritual postgame prayer at midfield, he made his way back toward the locker room tunnel and started to choke back tears before he hit the 25-yard line.

The loss may have been the hardest on Mariota. After getting peeled off the turf in a 4216 upset last year in Tucson — a loss Mariota took personal, saying he had “never been blown out like this in my life.”

The Oregon junior quarterback still finished 20-32 with 276 yards and three touchdowns, but losing makes him look mortal, shrinking his chances at Heisman like cotton in hot water.

Mariota — taking a cue from his coach — took the brunt of the blame himself, fumbling on his fifth sack of the game with 2:11 left, losing his chance at a perfect season.

grabbed a nine-yard touchdown pass from Mariota with 8:21 left to tie the game at 24, Arizona stormed back to earn a first-and-goal.

After forcing third down, Tony Washington caught Arizona quarterback Anu Solomon for a nine-yard sack that seemed to set Arizona up with an approximately 35-yard field goal.

Afterward, Washington ran toward midfield and bowed to the crowd — the Autzen fans had set a milestone 100straight sellouts Thursday — and subsequently handed a 15yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, an automatic Arizona first down. A few moments later, Jones-Grigsby punched in the winning score from 1yard out.

“It was a good play by him honestly,” Mariota said. “They kind of ran a coverage we weren’t really executing I was trying to make a play, and my instincts always lead the ball to go low and he made a good play and just stripped it from me.”

Moments later, Arizona was kneeling on their first 5-0 start since 1998.

Oregon will have a quick turnaround, playing eighthranked UCLA next week at the Rose Bowl.

“If you’re not prepared each week,if you’re not ready to play, you lose,” Mariota said.“We left a lot of points on the board, left a lot of plays on the field, let’s hope we learn from it. The locker room is positive and we’re just ready to move on.”

LOS ANGELES — The last time Southern California faced Arizona State, the resulting blowout loss cost Lane Kiffin his job a few hours later.

Although the Trojans’ season got much better from there, they tried not to think about that low point while they prepared for the rematch.

When the Sun Devils (3-1, 1-1 Pac-12) arrive at the Coliseum on Saturday, they’ll have to face 95-degree temperatures and the No. 16 Trojans (3-1, 2-0), who are off to a more promising start under new coach Steve Sarkisian.

Although Arizona State’s big win last season changed the Trojans’ trajectory, it wasn’t a popular topic of conversation for either team this week.

“We had to forget all about that game after it ended,” USC linebacker Hayes Pullard said. “We had to focus on making this season better, and there’s not much you can take from that game.”

The Trojans gave up a school record-tying 62 points in Tempe — the same number of points yielded last week by the Sun Devils in their own embarrassing loss to UCLA. Arizona State coach Todd

Graham is eager to see how his club responds to that dismal defensive effort when it faces USC’s numerous playmakers, including efficient quarterback Cody Kessler.

“I wish we would quit having these games, but we have one a year that is very difficult,” Graham said. “We are probably playing the best team that we have played to this point, and so we have to play our best game. We were able to do that last year, and now we have to do it this year.”

Taylor Kelly will miss his second straight game with a foot injury, so the Sun Devils will go again with Mike Bercovici, a Calabasas, California, native who played high-school ball in the San Fernando Valley. Bercovici set school records for completions (42) and attempts (68) while throwing for 488 yards in last week’s loss.

Bercovici will be tested by the Trojans, who haven’t allowed a touchdown pass this season. But he’ll get plenty of help from running back D.J. Foster against a USC run defense that was shredded three weeks ago by Boston College.

“We’re going to have to be really good up front,” Sarkisian said. “Both teams are going to go fast, and we really have to prepare ourselves.”

Notre Dame seeks to match Stanford’s physical play SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Stanford has a history of upsetting Notre Dame teams ranked in the top 10 in South Bend.

Two of Stanford’s three victories in 14 tries at Notre Dame Stadium came against Fighting Irish teams in the top 10.

The first time was in 1990 when the Cardinal rallied from 24-7 down to win when Tommy Vardell scored on a 1yard run with 36 seconds left to give Stanford a 36-31 victory over the top-ranked Irish.

Stanford did it again two years later when the 18thranked Cardinal beat No. 6 Notre Dame 33-16 in a victory coach Bill Walsh called “as big a win as I have ever had in my career.”

There’s no chance of that happening when the ninthranked Irish (4-0) and No. 14 Stanford (3-1) play Saturday.

Not because the Cardinal can’t win. They’ve beaten the Irish in four of their five last meetings. A Cardinal win just wouldn’t be an upset because they head into the game as 2.5-point favorites.

That’s despite the Irish having a better ranking and winning 15 of their last 16 games at Notre Dame Stadium. Coach Brian Kelly, who is 1-3 against Stanford, is warning his young team to be ready for a physical game.

“They know the physicality of this game. It’s because of Stanford has done it year in

and year out,” he said. “We got pushed around in my first year here. We have now battled back, if you will. We still haven’t come out on the right side of that battle yet.”

The return to Notre Dame Stadium brings back bad memories for the Cardinal, who believe they were robbed in a 20-13 overtime loss two years ago when officials ruled Stepfan Taylor was stopped short of the goal line on fourth-and-1. Stanford players believe Taylor scored.

“I just remember coming away from that game knowing there were things we could have done overall as a whole offense a lot better,” said Kevin Hogan, who took over as Stanford’s starting quarterback two weeks after that loss.

The Cardinal are struggling on offense, ranking 77th in scoring at 27.5 points a game and have been slowed by turnovers, penalties and missed field goals.

“We just need to keep working on executing and stop shooting ourselves in the foot, whether it’s penalties or turnovers,” Hogan said.

The Irish are focusing on limiting turnovers after committing five last week against Syracuse, with four of those by quarterback Everett Golson.

“You have to play mistakefree to put points on the board against a great defense,” Kelly said.

Wilson not shy in addressing domestic violence

BY TIM BOOTH The Associated Press RENTON, Wash. — Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson said he didn’t feel he needed to shy away from addressing domestic violence in his first column for Derek Jeter’s new website.

Wilson spoke Friday about his “Why Not You Foundation” and his “Pass The Peace” initiative with the goal of helping raise funds to support victims of domestic violence.

Wilson said there was no hesitation on his part to address a topic currently at the forefront of conversation.

“I think some things you don’t have to shy away from. You know

what’s right, you know what’s wrong and I don’t think you need to shy away from it,” Wilson said. “I don’t need to go into what I think people did right or wrong, I don’t think that’s my part. But the whole idea of the ‘Why Not You Foundation’ and the whole idea of ‘Pass The Peace’ is what can we do to move forward?

What can we do now and what can we do in the future?”

Wilson spent most of his weekly availability talking about his foundation and the response to his first column for Jeter’s new site, “The Players’ Tribune.” Wilson went more than 10 minutes before he was asked a question about Monday’s matchup at Washington.

Wilson revealed in the column

that appeared Thursday that he was a bully as a child and didn’t grow out of that phase until he was a teenager. He expanded on that, saying his competitiveness was often at the root of his anger. He went so far as to call himself a “bad kid.”

“I thought I owned the playground. I thought I owned the classroom. I thought I was bigger than who I was. I thought I would never get in trouble for anything. I thought that was the way to go. I thought that was being a man, as a young kid, for whatever reason,” Wilson said. “And so, for me, once I transitioned — my faith really grew when I was 14 years old, so once I kind of got that in my life I knew what to focus my life on.”

Wilson only launched his foundation last week during the Seahawks bye and it was on a flight to California that he decided that raising funds for domestic violence victims would be his first goal.

Wilson spoke with the head of The National Domestic Violence Hotline, the organization benefiting from Wilson’s initiative. Wilson said he wants to start the conversation and hopes it grows. He also understands that winning a Super Bowl title helps in getting recognition.

“If I hadn’t won a Super Bowl I don’t know if it would have quite as huge of an effect, but hopefully,” Wilson said. “I don’t think the effect comes through me, though.

That’s the great thing about it. I think the effect comes through other people and I’m just a small little part of it. I just had the idea. I just wanted to pass it on. So for me, hopefully it becomes like wildfire.”

Wilson first met Jeter about a year ago and the two had meetings in June, when the Yankees were in Seattle, about Wilson’s role with the website.

“I’m a very reserved person for the most part but I do think that being able to step out into that and write articles and to do some videos and do some fun things with ‘Players Tribune,’ which is going to be a great thing for athletes, is going to be something truly special,” Wilson said.

49ers Justin Smith returns SANTA CLARA, Calif.

(AP) — Justin Smith may have lost a step or two since his All-America days at Missouri, but there’s no denying his desire to compete at a high level in the NFL. The five-time All-Pro defensive lineman is limited at San Francisco 49ers practice during the week but ready at game time. Smith, who turned 35 Tuesday, has recovered from last year’s shoulder injury.

“Your eyes go to him as you’re watching the game,” San Francisco coach Jim Harbaugh said Friday.

“There’s just so much energy and aggressiveness, the way he plays the game. He always looks good to me.”

After four games, Smith is on pace for 12 sacks and 100 tackles.

“I can use my left arm this year — that’s a plus,” Smith said. “I feel good enough with where I’m at and what I’m doing. Let’s keep on trucking.”

Smith helps keep the 49ers defensive front running smoothly, which often means a choppy road for running backs. San Francisco ranks second in rushing defense, first in the NFC, heading into Sunday’s game against Kansas City.

“We just go out, try to compete and do what we do as a unit,” Smith said. “There are a lot of great running backs and a lot of great lines.

We have another big challenge in front of us.”

Without Aldon Smith in the lineup — he has five games remaining on his suspension — Justin has managed to keep things together as much with his brain as with his brawn.

“Ian (Williams) is playing well. Glenn (Dorsey) is playing well,” Smith said. “Teams have been trying to run right at Ian, but he’s strong at the point and fast at pass rushing. You can always pass rush better. Week in and week out, you look to take advantage of the protection we’re getting.”

Green Bay Packers' Julius Peppers runs back an interception 49-yards for a touchdown during the first half against the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday in Green Bay, Wis.

Lacy, Packers rout Vikings

BY GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press

GREEN BAY, Wis.— The running lanes looked decidedly wider. Eddie Lacy broke tackles and barreled over defenders.

The Green Bay Packers re-discovered their rushing attack in a 42-10 rout of the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday night.

Lacy ran for 105 yards and two touchdowns on 13 carries. Aaron Rodgers threw for three touchdowns and the Packers cruised after leading by four touchdowns at the half.

Lacy was just getting started then.

He rushed for his scores on back-toback drives in the third quarter. On the second touchdown, Lacy barreled over a defender into the end zone from 10 yards out.

“I thought he was a beast in the open field. We blocked well and Eddie ran very well,” coach Mike McCarthy said.

Rodgers finished 12 of 17 for 156 yards passing, including a 66-yard scoring strike to Jordy Nelson, the league’s leading receiver.

Still, the Packers weren’t at their best.

Three-and-outs were sprinkled in between their touchdown drives.

Rodgers, though, recognized the importance of getting the running game going.

“Eddie, you know, he’s going to be a guy who’s just going to be continuing to lay on people and to be more of a force as the weather continues to turn here,” the quarterback said.

The Vikings had the better running

game coming into the night. But Green Bay’s league-worst run defense had its best outing of the season, holding Matt Asiata to 72 yards on 15 carries.

Nothing else went right for Minnesota. The passing game struggled when it counted with Christian Ponder starting at quarterback for injured rookie Teddy Bridgewater.

Coach Mike Zimmer struggled to find positives.

“It’s hard to find a silver lining after tonight,” he said.

Some other takeaways from Green Bay’s fourth straight Thursday night victory at Lambeau Field: Making the leap: Julius Peppers’ 49yard interception return for a touchdown proved the 34-year-old pass rusher can still keep up with the younger crowd. He provided the kind of big-play spark that the Packers were hoping to get when they signed him in the offseason.

Peppers became the first player in NFL history with 100 sacks and 10 interceptions. He’ll remember his latest pick for a while.

“It’s at the top, it’s at the top. It was nice because I actually scored on it,” Peppers said.

Poor Ponder: Ponder finished 22 of 44 for 222 yards passing, but much of the damage came late with the game well in hand. He was sacked six times.

Ponder’s 6-yard touchdown run on the first play of fourth quarter ended the shutout.

Otherwise, this wasn’t what Ponder envisioned when he was called on to start with Bridgewater sidelined by a sprained

left ankle.

“Playing like that, you don’t have much to say. It was embarrassing,” Ponder said. “I feel bad that I put the team in this position. Point the finger at me.”

Run down: Matt Asiata ran for 72 yards on 15 carries for Minnesota, but the Packers’ league-worst run defense otherwise had a solid showing. It was part of a nice all-around effort for a defense that also forced three turnovers and recorded six sacks. Mike Daniels and former Viking Letroy Guion each had 1 1/2 sacks.

“It’s just something to continue to build off of. That’s how football is,” Daniels said. “They do their job in the back end, we do our job up front, and we all benefit from it.”

Not missed: They once cheered receiver Greg Jennings in Green Bay. Now with the Vikings, Jennings was booed each time a ball was thrown his way on Thursday night. Jennings’ pointed remarks about Rodgers and the quarterback’s leadership style apparently haven’t been forgotten, even if Jennings has tried to make amends.

Jennings finished with two catches for 31 yards.

Trainer’s room: Bridgewater was an observer four days after throwing for 317 yards in his first career start in a win over Atlanta. He sprained his ankle in the fourth quarter of that game.

Bridgewater said he wanted to play, but that coach Mike Zimmer made the best decision for him and the team.

Bridgewater suspects he might have been able to go if the game was on Sunday.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The toxicology report shows former Titans kicker Rob Bironas had a blood alcohol content more than twice the legal limit for driving in Tennessee when he died in a one-vehicle crash.

Testing released Friday by the Davidson County Medical Examiner’s Office shows Bironas had a blood alcohol level of 0.218 percent.

Tennessee’s limit for driving under the influence is 0.08 percent. The toxicology report also says a low level of Diazepam or Valium also was detected, but at a level so low to have a “negligible effect” according to a release.

The autopsy report finalized Friday shows the 36year-old Bironas died of blunt force trauma after his SUV went off the road and crashed into a line of trees Sept.20,and 911 calls described Bironas as chasing people and trying to run them off the road before losing control of his 2009 Yukon Denali near his home.

Staff from the medical examiner’s office and Nashville police’s traffic unit supervisor briefed Bironas’ family on the results late Friday afternoon.Police said in a statement after the crash that there was no evidence of alcohol or drugs at the scene, and the investigation is continuing.

Family and friends said at his funeral Sept. 25 that they would remember Bironas for how he lived and not the final 30 minutes of his life. Bironas married Rachel Bradshaw in June. She’s the daughter of Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw.

His wife called 911 before learning he had crashed because she thought he had gone to bed for the night and then couldn’t find him in their home.

From Louisville, Kentucky, Bironas played nine seasons with the Tennessee Titans, and he was the fourth mostaccurate kicker in NFL history, connecting on 85.7 percent of his kicks (239 of 279). He made a franchise-record 11 winning field goals during his career.

He was released in March.

Saints safety Byrd has season-ending knee surgery

BY BRETT MARTEL The Associated Press METARIE, La. — The New Orleans Saints’ struggling defense was dealt a significant setback Friday when the team learned that three-time Pro Bowl safety Jairus Byrd will miss the rest of the season with a knee injury.

Byrd, the former University of Oregon standout, injured his lateral meniscus during practice on Thursday, coach Sean Payton said, and had surgery on Friday — two days before New Orleans’ home game against Tampa Bay. “It was a play where he just kind of turned to catch a ball down the field and kind of tweaked his knee and got up, and obviously, it was more significant than that,” Payton said. “The good news is the repair went well, and it’s something that, with the right rehab and treatment, there should be no carry-over effect” next season.

Reserve safety Rafael Bush, a

regular in New Orleans’ defensive backfield, has been promoted to Byrd’s starting spot, Payton said.

Byrd’s father, Gill, is a cornerbacks coach with the Buccaneers.

So while Payton generally avoids giving away significant personnel changes to opponents in the days leading up to a game, he made an exception in this case.

“It was important that he let his dad know and that was more important, obviously, than the opponent not knowing,” Payton said. “As a father, I would want to know.”

The Saints signed Byrd to a sixyear, $54 million contract this past offseason, when the safety became a free agent after spending his first five NFL seasons in Buffalo. Byrd intercepted 22 passes during his first five years in the league, more than any safety during that span.

In four starts this season, Byrd had yet to intercept a pass, but created a turnover with a forced fumble in the season opener at Atlanta.

“It’s a big loss. Byrd’s not just a great player, he’s a great teammate. It’s going to be unfortunate to not have him around as much,” fellow starting safety Kenny Vaccaro said.

Still, the defense was struggling even with Byrd on the field, ranking 29th with 396 yards allowed per game. And Vaccaro noted that in that sense, the unit has to improve, with or without one of its top defensive backs.

“The way we were playing, we had so many different issues, we had so many things to fix, that it’s like, ‘All right, we’re going to have to overcome all these other things anyway,”’ Vaccaro said. “So it’s a loss, but you get what I’m saying.

We were playing so bad across the board that it can’t get worse, I don’t care who you lose. ... You can plug anybody in and play better (as a unit) than how we’ve been playing.”

Bush said he expected to be ready for the elevated role, just as he was around this time last sea-

son, when he had to step in for then-injured safety Roman Harper and proved himself valuable enough to coordinator Rob Ryan’s unit that the Saints matched a restricted free-agent tender that Bush had received from Atlanta.

“It’s a profession and everybody has to know their job inside and out and everybody has to understand that in this game, it’s 100 percent chance of being injured, so you could be up just like that,” Bush said. “You just want to make sure you prepare yourself well enough to where, if you go out there, your teammates can trust you, you can execute your plays and be able to make sure there’s not any dropoff.”

Ryan, meanwhile, rejected the notion that an injury to one of his top players necessarily meant that his unit would regress even further as a whole.

“We’re coming together as a group. I know we didn’t play well last week. We’re ready to go,” Ryan said. “We’re excited about this

challenge. We’re looking forward to this game.”

“With our secondary being as multiple as it is, we have guys in different spots playing a lot. We have a Rafael Bush who’s a fantastic football player,” Ryan said.

“We’re going to be fine. It’s a big loss. He’s such a great person and great player, but we have an excellent football player there.”

Notes: In addition to Byrd, the Saints have ruled out RB Mark Ingram (hand) and FB Erik Lorig (ankle). However, S Marcus Ball (hamstring), who has not yet played this season, was listed as probable. ... Byrd, a sure-handed veteran, also had been used as a punt returner in likely fair-catch situations as opposing punters tried to pin the Saints inside their own 20. Now rookie receiver Brandin Cooks, the former Oregon State star, who has been lining up deep for more returnable punts, is now expected to be the primary punt returner regardless of field position.

Peavy, Giants edge Strasburg, Nats 3-2

BY HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Put Jake Peavy on the San Francisco Giants, and he suddenly turns into quite a postseason performer.

Same for a couple of rookies, Hunter Strickland and Joe Panik.

Seems that October aura manager Bruce Bochy has cultivated with the Giants rubs off on anyone joining the club.

The intense Peavy took a no-hitter into the fifth inning, Strickland and the rest of San Francisco’s rested bullpen barely protected a lead, and the wild-card Giants won their league-record ninth consecutive postseason game by beating Stephen Strasburg and the Washington Nationals 3-2 on

Friday in an NL Division Series opener.

“Nobody is scared of the moment,” said Peavy, who won the 2007 NL Cy Young Award with San Diego and last year’s World Series with Boston, but was 0-3 with a 9.27 ERA in five previous starts beyond the regular season. “We understand that we might not be, man for man, the favorites.”

Perhaps they should be.

Peavy, the 33-year-old righthander with the tattoo sleeve on his left arm, finally earned his first postseason win, allowing only two hits in 5 2-3 scoreless innings, and getting plenty of help.

Strickland spent much of the season at High-A and Double-A in the minors, and has all of seven major league innings on his resume,

but struck out Ian Desmond swinging at a 100 mph fastball with the bases loaded in the sixth after Peavy left, cussing up a storm.

Panik provided a nice defensive play at second base to end the seventh and contributed one of San Francisco’s three RBI singles.

No swinging from the heels for this bunch. No costly misplays in the field, either, such as the passed ball by Nationals catcher Wilson Ramos that led to an unearned run.

That was one of a couple examples of jumpy play by a Washington team that won its division and led the NL with 96 wins but has never won a postseason series.

Under Bochy, the Giants won the World Series in 2010 and 2012.

They have not lost a postseason game since trailing 3-1 against St.

Louis in the NLCS two years ago.

When the lights are brightest, the stage biggest, the stakes highest, San Francisco comes through.

“We’ve done it so many times now, it seems to be part of our DNA,” said Hunter Pence, who stole a base in the fourth and came home on Brandon Belt’s hit off Strasburg.

“But I think the thing that we know is: What’s in the past is in the past, and we’ve got to move forward and we’ve got to be ready for the game tomorrow. Because if not, they’ll jump all over us.”

Game 2 is Saturday, with Washington’s Jordan Zimmermann — who threw a no-hitter in the regular-season finale — facing Tim Hudson.

Strasburg took the loss in his playoff debut; he was shut down in

2012 to protect his surgically repaired elbow. He showed up with his best material Friday, reaching 99 mph.

“He gave us a chance,” manager Matt Williams said. “Jake was a little bit better.”

The No. 1 overall draft pick in 2009 lasted five-plus innings, allowing eight hits — all singles, all to center or right field — and two runs, one earned.

“Wasn’t like they were hitting me all around the yard,” Strasburg said. “Hit it where we weren’t.”

Peavy didn’t top 92 mph, but that didn’t matter. He put pitches where he wanted, often barely over the black edge of the plate.

“He mixed really well. He’s a very smart pitcher,” said catcher Buster Posey, the 2012 NL MVP.

Royals need extras again

Orioles rally for 7-6 win

BY DAVID GINSBURG The Associated Press

BY GREG BEACHAM The Associated Press

ANAHEIM, Calif. — With three extra-inning wins in four remarkable days, the longdowntrodden Kansas City Royals have climbed from the depths of a 29-year playoff absence to the brink of the AL Championship Series.

Eric Hosmer hit a two-run homer in the 11th inning, and the Royals took a 2-0 lead in the AL Division Series with a 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night.

Alex Gordon had an early run-scoring single and Salvador Perez added an RBI infield single in the 11th for the Royals, who became the first team in major league history to win three straight extrainning playoff games.

“We’re going to try to figure out nine next time,” said Hosmer, handed the souvenir home run ball during a postgame interview. “I know these games have been exciting, they’ve been taking a long time, but we’ll take a win any way we can get it.”

In its first postseason appearance since 1985, Kansas City is on a playoff roll — and the majors’ best regular-season team has not been able to stop it. Hosmer had three hits and scored two runs as the Royals moved within one win of the AL Championship Series.

Game 3 in the best-of-five series is Sunday in Kansas City, where Angels left-hander C.J. Wilson faces James Shields.

Strong defense again was a huge factor for the Royals.

After C.J. Cron’s leadoff double against Wade Davis in the eighth, Angels pinch-run-

Kansas City Royals' Eric Hosmer, center, celebrates his two-run home run with Salvador Perez, left, in the 11th inning against the Los Angeles Angels in Game 2 of the AL Division Series, in Anaheim, Calif., on Friday. ner Collin Cowgill decided to test the arm of center fielder Jarrod Dyson, who had just entered the game. Dyson threw out Cowgill at third after catching Chris Iannetta’s fly to left-center.

“That’s huge. That changes momentum, that changes everything in a game right there,” Hosmer said. “That’s a big-time play.”

Two innings later,shortstop Alcides Escobar turned a tough double play after stretching high to glove an offtarget throw.

After 10 innings of intense, pitching-dominated baseball, the Royals broke out. Lorenzo Cain beat out a one-out infield single off losing pitcher Kevin Jepsen, and Hosmer smacked a no-doubt homer to right field, setting off a celebration for several dozen blue-clad fans in a sea of red at the Big A. Albert Pujols had a tying RBI single in the sixth for the Angels, but the majors’ most productive offense has been mostly helpless against the

Royals. Los Angeles, which led the big leagues with 98 wins, has just 10 hits and three runs in 22 innings.

“There are some guys that right now aren’t attacking the ball where they can for various reasons. There is not one cureall that’s going to get everybody swinging the bat,” manager Mike Scioscia said.

“We haven’t done a lot of the things we’ve done during the season, and we put a lot of pressure on our pitching staff.”

Mike Trout got a chance to help in the 11th after second baseman Omar Infante made a throwing error on Kole Calhoun’s two-out grounder.

But the AL MVP favorite struck out against Greg Holland, finishing his second straight 0-for-4 night in his first playoff series.

Only two teams since 1995 have rallied to win a division series after losing the first two games at home.

Kansas City’s cardiac kids have put an unlikely charge into October. The Royals are

the first team to play in three consecutive extra-inning playoff games since the 1980 NLCS between Houston and Philadelphia, which had four straight.

They followed up their 12inning wild-card victory over Oakland with a series-opening win on Mike Moustakas’ 11th-inning homer, and Hosmer kept it going with his decisive homer one night later.

Brandon Finnegan pitched a hitless 10th for the Royals, and the 21-year-old rookie earned the win. Greg Holland worked the 11th for his second save of the series.

In a matchup of impressive rookie starters, Yordano Ventura pitched five-hit ball for the Royals, and Matt Shoemaker threw six innings of five-hit ball for Los Angeles.

Ventura’s fastball was clocked at 102 mph in the second inning, and he was still hitting triple digits in the seventh. He escaped jams twice in the late innings, stranding three runners.

Shoemaker also was sharp in his playoff debut after a breakthrough 16-win regular season. The Angels’ 28-yearold rookie had six strikeouts while pitching for the first time since straining an oblique muscle on Sept. 15.

The Royals took an early lead for the second straight night when Hosmer singled, advanced on Calhoun’s error in right field and scored on Gordon’s single in the second inning.

After Ventura retired 10 straight in the early innings, the Angels evened it in the sixth with a two-out rally.

After Calhoun singled and Trout walked, Pujols drove a 100 mph fastball to right for the first hit of his first postseason with Los Angeles.

Perez was hit in the head by Josh Hamilton’s backswing in the fifth inning. Perez, the hero of Kansas City’s wildcard playoff victory over Oakland, stayed in the game after a long moment on the ground.

Cardinals score eight in 7th as Kershaw wilts

BY BETH HARRIS The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Matt Carpenter dug in against Clayton Kershaw, fouling off pitches and fighting an 0-2 count. He finally broke through, smacking a goahead three-run double that rallied the St. Louis Cardinals to victory.

Carpenter’s hit highlighted an eight-run seventh inning, and the Cardinals went on to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-9 in a fiery NL Division Series opener Friday.

“It makes it more fun when you’re playing against somebody that is known as being the best pitcher in the game,” said Carpenter, who also homered off Kershaw.

“When I get in those at-bats versus him I just try to fight.

He’s coming right after me, seems like every time I face him I’m down 0-2 and I got to fight my way back.”

It was 92 degrees at gametime, and things quickly got more heated in a surprising slugfest.

St. Louis overcame a fiverun deficit against Kershaw and held on when Trevor

Rosenthal blew a 100-mph fastball past Yasiel Puig with a runner on third to end a back-and-forth game that lasted nearly four hours.

“I’m sure everybody in baseball was expecting a one-run game,” Carpenter said. “We ended up getting one, but we didn’t think it would be 10-9.”

Game 2 is Saturday night with St. Louis’ Lance Lynn facing Los Angeles’ Zack Greinke, the 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner.

In a matchup of 20-game winners, Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright hit Puig with a pitch leading off the third, triggering a bench-clearing scrum. There was shoving and shouting, but no punches were thrown.

Wainwright wilted first on the mound, allowing six runs and 11 hits in 4 2-3 innings.

“I stunk, and those guys just completely picked me up. I was so proud,” he said about his teammates. “The guys never quit and kept chipping away against the toughest pitcher out there and, gosh, it’s a huge win.”

Kershaw failed once again in the postseason.

The left-hander whose

1.77 ERA led the major leagues for the fourth consecutive year came in eager to erase the memory of his poor showing in Game 6 of last year’s NL Championship Series, when the Dodgers were eliminated by the Cardinals.

“Obviously my fault to let them get back in the game,” Kershaw said. “We have a great team and if I don’t get in the way, we have a pretty good chance to win that game.” dominated Kershaw through the first six innings, retiring 16 in a row between homers by Randal Grichuk and Carpenter.

But he collapsed in a shaky seventh, when he gave up five of the Cardinals’ eight runs and became the first pitcher in postseason history to allow seven runs in consecutive starts. He yielded that many in losing Game 6 last year.

“He gives up a hit or two and you always feel like he’s going to get out of it, he’s always going to rebound,” Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said.

Kershaw fell to 1-4 with a career 5.20 ERA in the postseason.

St. Louis Cardinals' Matt Carpenter, center, watches his three-run double as Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw, right, crouches on the mound in the seventh inning of Game 1 of the NL Division Series in Los Angeles on Friday.

BALTIMORE — Down by three runs in the eighth inning, the Baltimore Orioles had every reason to believe they could rally against the Tigers.

Not only because the Orioles are capable of scoring in bunches, but more importantly, they were going up against Detroit’s leaky bullpen.

Delmon Young drove in three runs with a pinch-hit double, and Baltimore used a four-run eighth to pull out a 76 victory Friday for a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five AL Division Series.

Baltimore will try for a sweep in Game 3 Sunday at Detroit, when Miguel Gonzalez starts against the Tigers’third straight Cy Young winner, David Price.

“It’s huge going into Detroit up 2-0,” said J.J. Hardy, who scored the go-ahead run with a sweeping slide.“We’ve got to go over there and do our job.”

A day after the Orioles battered Detroit relievers during an eight-run eighth that produced a 12-3 win, they pushed the Tigers to the brink of elimination with an uprising against the beleaguered duo of Joba Chamberlain and Joakim Soria — the primary victims on Thursday night.

It was 6-3 with one out in the eighth when Chamberlain hit Adam Jones with a pitch and gave up a single to Nelson Cruz. Steve Pearce singled in a run, and the towel-waving, orange-clad fans among the sellout crowd of 48,058 sensed another comeback win by a team that won 10 games during the regular season during its final at-bat.

Soria entered and walked Hardy to load the bases for Young, who lined the first pitch into the left-field corner.

“We did it yesterday, we’ve been doing it all year against teams in our own division,” Young said. “So any time we have an opportunity and get guys on, we think we can win.”

Young went 10 for 20 as a pinch-hitter during the regular season. He also was the AL championship series MVP in 2012 — for the Tigers — when they swept the Yankees.

“It’s very hard to sit around and not know where the consistent at-bats are coming,” Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. “He has done the things that you need to do to give yourself a chance to be successful.”

In the top of the eighth, baserunning was a key point.

Miguel Cabrera was thrown out at the plate when he tried to score right behind Torii Hunter on Victor Martinez’s double with no outs.

“I was watching the play develop and hoping they both would make it,” Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said.

Zach Britton got three straight outs for the save.

Soria wound up with the loss, but Chamberlain took the blame.

“This one is on me.

There’s no getting around it,” he said. “Obviously, if I don’t put us in that situation, then we’re having a different conversation.”

Community Sports/Baseball Thursday’s American League playoff games Black nearly gets Orioles second 300 game

power past Tigers BALTIMORE (AP) — Nelson Cruz and the Baltimore Orioles had the good fortune of avoiding Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer during the regular season.

Or maybe it was the other way around.

In his 2014 debut against the hard-hitting Orioles, Scherzer found out quickly that a poor pitch can go a long way — in the other direction.

Cruz and J.J. Hardy homered, and Baltimore hammered out 12 hits in defeating Scherzer and the Detroit Tigers 12-3 Thursday in the opener of their AL Division Series.

“I just left too many pitches up,” Scherzer said. “This is a great-hitting ballclub. You give them a chance to extend their arms, they can really hit it.”

Jonathan Schoop and Alejandro De Aza each had two

hits and two RBIs for the Orioles, who turned a close game into a rout with an eightrun eighth inning against Scherzer and three ineffective relievers.

The 12 runs set a postseason record for Baltimore, making its second playoff appearance since 1997.

Game 2 of the best-of-five series is Friday at Camden Yards. Justin Verlander, the second of three straight Cy Young winners the Orioles will face, is set to go against left-

hander Wei-Yin Chen.

Verlander must avoid the mistakes made by Scherzer, who allowed five runs and seven hits in 7 1-3 innings. The right-hander was 18-5 during the regular season, but in this one he was burned by the long ball and outpitched by the Orioles.

“I’ve got to find a way to get the ball down,” Scherzer said.

“I wasn’t quite able to do that tonight, and I paid for it.”

Cruz led the majors with 40 homers during the regular

season, a good portion of Baltimore’s big league-best 211 long balls. His firstinning drive off Scherzer put the Orioles up 2-0 before Detroit’s Victor Martinez and J.D. Martinez connected off Chris Tillman in the second to tie it.

But Baltimore had too much firepower for the Tigers. Hardy led off the seventh by driving a poorly thrown changeup from Scherzer over the centerfield wall for a 4-2 lead.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — The Kansas City Royals and Los Angeles Angels headed to the 11th inning tied 2-2 in their AL Division Series opener Thursday night.

Chris Iannetta and David Freese homered for the Angels, but the AL West champions stranded seven runners in the final four innings before heading to extras.

Alcides Escobar had an early RBI double for the Royals, and the bullpen repeatedly escaped trouble in Kansas City’s first game since that spectacular, 12inning comeback victory over Oakland in the wildcard playoff Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium.

Mike Trout was 0 for 4 with a walk in the first 10

innings of his playoff debut.

Both teams managed just three hits apiece in a frustrating offensive start — particularly for the Angels.

A pitch from Tim Collins grazed Gordon Beckham’s shoe leading off the ninth, and Erick Aybar bunted Beckham to second. After Collins struck out Josh Hamilton, C.J. Cron drew a walk from Jason Frasor — but he retired Iannetta on a grounder to second.

Jered Weaver, Joe Smith and Huston Street combined to retire Kansas City’s final 15 batters before extra innings, with the Angels’ closer pitching a perfect ninth.

Royals reliever Kelvin Herrera walked Freese on five pitches leading off the seventh and then left the game

with right forearm tightness.

The right-hander is a key member of the team’s vaunted bullpen.

A raucous crowd cheered on the Angels throughout the franchise’s first playoff game since 2009. Los Angeles earned home-field advantage throughout the postseason with a big league-best 98-64 record in the regular season, winning the AL West with the highest-scoring offense in the majors.

The Royals still had postseason magic, however: Nori Aoki made dramatically awkward catches on the rightfield warning track to end the sixth and seventh, twice making up for poor routes to the Angels’ drives with a last-instant stab. Lorenzo Cain also made two excep-

Harvick shatters Kansas record

Bowyer’s rough year on track trumped by fatherhood

BY DAVE SKRETTA The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Kevin Harvick is the one to beat once again at Kansas Speedway.

Harvick shattered his own track record and won the pole to start the second round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship Sunday. After setting the mark at 197.773 mph in his second round of qualifying, he turned a lap of 197.621 in the final round to earn the pole.

The previous record of 194.658 was set by Harvick in the spring.

“For whatever reason this fits everything I have going on with my driving style,” said Harvick, who won his third straight pole at Kansas and also won last year’s Chase race.

“In the end it comes down to having a fast car. We have a fast car.”

He has had that most of the season, too. The pole was Harvick’s eighth this year.

“With a little bit of good luck we can beat every car on the race track any given week

The Associated Press

Kevin Harvick smiles after qualifying for Sunday's NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan., on Friday. Harvick won the pole. at any style of race track, and that’s really positive feeling to have as a driver,” he said.

“If the chips fall right we have the cars and the speed to do what we need to do.”

Brian Vickers qualified second with a lap of 196.307.

Aric Almirola was third.

Joey Logano began a run of five Chase contenders by qualifying fourth. Jeff Gordon was next, followed by Brad Keselowski, Kyle Busch and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Tony Stewart qualified ninth, his best effort since returning to the track following the Sprint Car accident that killed Kevin Ward Jr. at a track in upstate New York.

Chase contenders Ryan Newman and Denny Hamlin were tied to the thousandth of a second for the final transfer spot in the first round of qualifying, each turning a lap of 193.736 mph.

Newman, who drives for Richard Childress Racing, wound up winning the tiebreaker based on owner’s points over Hamlin, who drives for Joe Gibbs Racing.

Newman improve his positioning by eight spots and will start 17th, while Hamlin will start 25th.

His teammate, Matt Kenseth, will start 27th.

“Our cars just don’t have any speed,” Hamlin said.

“Balance is fine, just threetenths, fourth-tenths off consistently, all of our cars.

Just disappointing we can’t have any more speed out of our cars. We’re doing the best we can to move up.”

Defending series champion Jimmie Johnson spun out during his first qualifying effort and will start 32nd, the lowest he has started a Chase race since 2005 at Homestead.

It is also the worst Johnson has qualified this season.

The race at Kansas kicks off the three-race contender round of the Chase, which will whittle the field from 12 drivers to eight.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Midnight was approaching Tuesday, and Clint Bowyer was bummed. His hometown Royals were on the verge of losing to Oakland in their first playoff appearance in decades, and his baby boy was stubbornly refusing to make his entrance into the world.

“Then everything starts going crazy,” Bowyer said.

While the Royals were busy rallying for a dramatic 12inning win over the A’s, little Cash Aaron Bowyer finally decided to arrive. And as surreal as the experience was at Kauffman Stadium that night, things may have been even more chaotic in the delivery room.

“I was high-fiving people,” he said. “I was kind of pushing the doctor out of the way at one point,trying to get a better view of the little guy coming into the world. The nurses were trying to hold me back — ‘You can’t get that close!’ — and I’m saying, ‘Get the hell out of the way!’

“But it was awesome,” Bowyer said, breaking into a grin.

Throw in his Chiefs beating up Tom Brady and the New England Patriots on Monday night, and the Sprint Cup Series shifting to his home track at Kansas Speedway this

weekend, and just about everything is awesome for the Kansas native these days.

Well, except for that little issue with the Chase.

Bowyer failed to qualify for NASCAR’s version of the playoffs, which means he’s driving for little more than pride — and his new baby boy — the rest of the season.

After a spectacular season two years ago, when Bowyer won three times and finished second to Jimmie Johnson in the Chase, things haven’t gone nearly as well. He was winless last season and has yet to reach Victory Lane this season, finishing in the top five just four times.

Bowyer refuses to make excuses, though he has plenty of them. Having a child on the way is enough to distract anybody. But he prefers instead to look forward with optimism, pointing out that a win at Kansas Speedway would mean as much to him as a win anywhere.

After all, he began his career on the dirt at nearby Lakeside Speedway. He recalls going to the first race at Kansas Speedway in 2001 as a fan. He still heads home to Emporia, Kansas, on a regular basis, hanging out with friends and checking in on his auto dealership.

What’s the real unemployment rate?

Official figures don’t tell the whole story ■

CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON — Just how healthy is the U.S. job market?

Despite steady hiring and falling unemployment, the question has provoked sharp debate and considerable uncertainty on the eve of the September jobs report.

Will millions without jobs who aren’t looking for one eventually start looking?

Why aren’t companies filling more of their openings?

Why can many people find only part-time work?

Much of the uncertainty flows from a big question: Does today’s 5.9 percent unemployment rate, far below the 10 percent it hit in 2009, mean the job market is near

Group wants Astoria port board appointed instead of elected ASTORIA (AP) — A group in Clatsop County proposes a public vote on whether the Port of Astoria should continue to be governed by an elected board, or by appointees of the governor.

The Daily Astorian reports that mayors in south Clatsop County have complained that the port hasn’t been representing their interests well and have called for it to be reorganized.

The port is run by five commissioners, now elected by county residents. The initiative calls for mayors and the chair of the county commissioners to recommend appointees to the governor.

C

The measure would also rename the organization as the Port of Clatsop County.

It would be on the May ballot.

Oregon has 23 ports. Two, the prominent ones in Portland and Coos Bay, have appointed governing bodies.

High winds cut short first drone flight at Pendleton test range PENDLETON (AP) — Developers of a test range in Eastern Oregon for the unmanned aerial vehicles known as drones have conducted their first flights, but high winds ended them early.

A four-propeller drone was launched on a mission to scan a small barbecue grill for heat signatures — a test of its ability to pinpoint hot spots for crews fighting wildfires.

It was launched and landed twice.

The Pendleton test site is managed by a contractor, Peak 3 Technical Services, for the city of Pendleton, which has invested more than $100,000 in launch pads for the test range.

The city hopes to spur the local economy by serving companies trying out drones for commercial purposes, and eventually to attract those companies to establish permanent offices and manufacturing plants.

Tell the boss about bad service Q: One of my pet peeves is poor customer service. Is it rude to tell the business owner how unhappy I am?

A: We have all had negative customer service experiences, and most of us feel the same way you do. Not only is it not “rude” to tell the business owner you are unhappy, but they will probably appreciate the DOWN TO input so they can correct the problem before losing you and other customers.

According to business research, poor customer service is a main reason cusARLENE tomers leave and SOTO never come back to a business.

Customers who are dissatisfied are also more likely to tell their friends and family, actually anyone who will listen, about their bad experience; not good for a small business that depends on word of mouth to increase their sales revenue. If you had a bad experience it’s likely other customers have as well.

Having said that, it’s not rude to let the business owner know about a problem. There are ways to handle this conversation that will be more proactive. The more positively you handle this, the more likely the message will result in change. Customers are not always right, but they need to feel they’ve been heard. Don’t stand at the counter and yell you are dissatisfied, contact the business owner and ask if you can have a few minutes of their time to talk privately about an issue that is bothering you. You can also send a letter to the business owner if you are not comfortable meeting face to face. Be sure to relate specific reasons why your customer service experience was not what you expected. Take responsibility for your part in the interaction with the business, were your expectations realistic?

Also, be sure you tell the business owner what reasonable action you would like them to take to correct the problem. What would make you a satisfied customer now and in the future?

Good business managers calculate the lifetime value of a customer and apply that metric to determining a reasonable amount to invest in making a dissatisfied customer a happy customer. In its simplest form, the lifetime value of a customer is calculated by taking the (average value of a sale) x (number of repeat transactions) x (the average retention time for a typical customer). No business can be successful if they spend too much but not spending enough can leave an unhappy customer even more dissatisfied.

Barry Moltz, in his book “Bust a Myth: Delivering Customer Service in a SelfService World”, talks about customer service beliefs and ways to provide outstanding customer service in a high tech, fast paced world. His formula for determining customer value includes revenue, accounts receivable history, referrals, feedback provided, how long the customer has been a customer, competitive edge and customer complaints. More information is available at http://barrymoltz.com.

Research shows that business owners who go beyond the minimum and respond to customer complaints in a positive, proactive way actually gain additional business from that person and the word of mouth generated.

You, as a customer, have the option to assist small businesses to succeed in your community through the feedback you provide to the business owners.

The SBDC is a partnership of the U.S. Small Business Administration, the Oregon Small Business Development Center Network, the Oregon Business Development Department and Southwestern Oregon Community College.

Arlene M. Soto has been the Director of the Southwestern Small Business Development Center since July 2007. To ask a question call 541-756-6445, email asoto@socc.edu, or write 2455 Maple Leaf, North Bend, OR 97459. Additional help is available at the OSBDCN Web page www.bizcenter.org.

Additions that make the yard a winter hangout too

BY DIANA MARSZALEK The Associated Press

As fun as summer at the lake is, Sue Vanderwiel and family also make the most of their Apple River, Illinois, vacation home in the winter.

That’s when “it is much quieter, and we can just hang out, play games and chill, literally and figuratively.” gathers The family around a big stone fire pit (15 feet in diameter) — often with s’mores, hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps for Mom and Dad — even when those Midwestern temperatures drop.

“We have been out there with snow on the ground,” the Chicago-area resident says. “Regardless of the season, we stargaze and watch satellites travel across the sky.”

Refusing to become shutins during the winter, many homeowners are making their outdoor spaces warm and comfy for year-round use. Builders cite increasing demand from clients trying to maximize their homes’ potential by adding everything from DIY ice rinks to elaborate outdoor kitchens.

“We are working harder, we are working longer hours, and we don’t necessarily want to get in the car and travel through traffic on

This 2014 photo provided by Susan Vanderwiel shows shows the fire pit she and her family enjoy year-round at their lake house in Apple River, Ill.

And when building a new space, features that make it usable in winter — in-floor heat, lighting, fireplaces — should be included from the get-go.

“You have to design it for summer first,” Veron says.

“But then you look at how

we can take that outdoor space and try to stretch it into three or four seasons.”

And you don’t need a lot of acreage. Veron says he’s created winter-worthy spaces in small backyards that abut neighbors, as well heated as full-blown, kitchens along snowmobile or ski trails. “It’s about the

experience,” he says.

That’s what Vanderwiel has been enjoying since installing her fire pit three years ago.

“We really enjoy our time, and find gazing into the fire, the smell of the burning fire and the crackling sounds very relaxing,” she says. “We are very happy.”

Windows 10 tries blending new with familiar

BY BRANDON BAILEY AP Technology Writer

SAN FRANCISCO — Microsoft is trying to soften an unpopular redesign of Windows by reviving features from older versions while still attempting to nudge desktop users into a world of touch screens and mobile devices.

The company on Tuesday gave an early preview of the new Windows 10 software, which it aims to begin selling by the middle of next year.

Although the current version is called Windows 8, Microsoft says it’s skipping ahead to Windows 10 to emphasize its effort to move forward.

“Windows 10 represents the first step in a whole new generation of Windows,” said Terry Myerson, executive vice president of Microsoft’s operating systems group.

Windows 8 was introduced two years ago as an answer to the growing demand for mobile devices.

But many users hated it because its tablet-like design and controls weren’t a good fit for many devices using keyboards and mice.

Sales of personal computers continued to fall.

With Windows 10, Microsoft is trying to regain the loyalty of longtime PC users, while reaching out to consumers and businesses

that are increasingly adopting touch-screen smartphones and tablets.

Analysts consider the success of the new Windows crucial for Microsoft and new CEO Satya Nadella, who must show that Microsoft can embrace mobile devices without sacrificing the traditional computing experience.

The new system will be a blend of the old and the new.

For instance, it will have various controls that are familiar to users of older Windows systems, such as a start menu to quickly access apps. But this start button will also open a series of tiles that resemble what’s found in Windows 8.

Analysts said that more gradual transition is important if Microsoft wants to persuade users to upgrade.

“This is what Windows 8 should have been,” said Carolina Milanesi, a veteran tech analyst at the research firm Kantar Worldpanel.

“Here they are doing the right thing.”

Microsoft executives signaled they got that message on Tuesday. They stressed repeatedly that using the next version of Windows won’t be a challenge for businesses or consumers who have continued to use Windows 7 or even earlier versions.

The new software seeks to offer “the familiarity of

Windows 7 with some of the benefits that exist in Windows 8,” said Joe Belfiore, a Microsoft executive who oversees Windows design and evolution.

He compared it to buying a new car with a more powerful engine and a better audio system, without having to “learn a new way to drive.”

Windows 10, for instance, will suggest new ways to use or navigate through files, without forcing users to abandon the old way, Belfiore said.

App teaches kindergartners basic computer coding CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — This computer programming app is so easy to use that even a kindergartener can do it.

Researchers in Massachusetts have created a basic computer coding app that they say is the first designed specifically for children as young as 5. Kids who haven’t yet learned to read can use the app to craft their own

they think of something very sophisticated,” says co-developer Mitchel Resnick of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “But we don’t think it has to be that way.”

Marina Umaschi Bers, his co-developer from Tufts University, cites research that shows children start to form convictions by fourth grade about how good or bad they are in math, science

interactive stories and games.

With ScratchJr, children can snap together graphical programming blocks to make characters and other elements in their project move, jump, talk and change size. Users can modify various elements in the paint editor, add their own voices and sounds, and even insert their own photos.

“When many people think of computer programming,

and technology.

“So most programs that introduce coding in fourth grade and up, it’s great, but they are coming kind of late to the party,” she says.

The project was funded by a $1.3 million grant from the National Science Foundation to help children learn to think creatively and reason systematically.

The free app is already

It’s good to have a reason There are, to my way of thinking at least, very few times when you should not buy tools.

However, there are times — especially when you’re sharing a bank account with someone who has other ideas for draining it — when it pays to have a reason to buy tools.

Not necessarily a good reason, but some sort of reason.

I was in college when I got my first circular saw and power drill for Christmas.

I’m sure that pointing out to the gifter I now was living 100 miles away from his tool collection — and would not be able to quickly return a borrowed tool — might have had something to do with his largesse.

The saw served me well through my renting years and the old-old house, but I was on the front porch of the new-old house, milling lumber for a closet system, when it gave up the ghost.

There was a time when I would have hauled it off to a tool repair shop and picked it up a few days later. But those times already had gone the way of the dodo and the neighborhood cobbler.

Instead, I assigned the sharer of the bank account (and designer of the closet system) to protect my gear from wannabe wood thieves as I dashed off to the lumber yard.

(I patronized lumber yards and hardware stores exclusively for years, fighting mightily the lure of the new “home centers,” where there were shopping carts and people in smocks who had no idea what 20d nails were, much less where I might find them. Lumber yards have joined the dodo, and I fear the hardware

stores may follow them.)

The replacement circular saw was a fine substitute for the college y e a r s ’ HOUSE model and remains in use 20some years later.

The drill held out far longer, finally succumbing to the ravages STEVE of time just BATIE a couple of years ago on the front deck project. I over-taxed its nearly 40year-old motor on the fourth hole I needed for concrete anchors. It was replaced with a combo hammer drill, which is what I should have

been using in the first place.

Sorry, old buddy.

When I was outfitting the workshop at the new-old house, I splurged on a contractor’s-grade table saw. I explained to the sharer of the purse strings that it would be useful for all sorts of stuff as we set about remodeling and renovating that 100-yearold four-square.

I did not say the real reason was that a proper shop is not a proper shop if there isn’t a table saw standing in the middle of the floor.

(I never had to explain why I needed the joiner that was delivered the same day. I’m not sure she even knew I got it. And, if she noticed, I doubt she knew what that machine with all the strange knobs was for.)

The chop saw?

Mormon church’s international mark on display SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The expanding international footprint of the Mormon church will be on display this weekend during a biannual conference that brings 100,000 church members to Salt Lake City to listen to words of guidance and inspiration from the faith’s leaders.

Thousands of the attendees will be coming from countries outside the U.S. — most stopping on their way into the 21,000-seat conference center to grab

headphones so they can listen to speeches translated into 94 different languages.

It is widely anticipated that one or more of this weekend’s speakers will deliver an address in a language other than English, marking a first in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ biannual general conference.

Church leaders recently announced they would make that option available to speakers.

A non-English speech

would be an important representation of the internationalization of a church that was founded in 1830 by Joseph Smith in upstate New York, say scholars who study the religion.

“It’s a hugely important symbol, because it reveals that the religion is becoming less and less a small, interesting American sect, and more and more a diverse, global religion,” said Matthew Bowman, a Mormon scholar and history

professor at Bowling Green State University in Ohio.

The number of church members outside the United States first surpassed the number within the country in 1997, and today more than half of the faith’s 15 million members reside in non-U.S. countries, said Matt Martinich, a church member who analyzes membership numbers with the nonprofit Cumorah Foundation.

The faith has established footing in several Latin American countries that are

rooted in Catholicism, including Brazil and Mexico, which both count more than 1 million church members.

Membership growth is driven by a missionary force of young men and women who proselytize around the world. The nearly 85,000 missionaries serving around the world are more than at any time in church history.

But behind the glowing international membership numbers lays a real and challenging problem for the

church — keeping new converts active in the faith, Martinich said. His group’s analysis shows that foreign church members are significantly less active in church activities than Mormons in the U.S. Many factors play into this, he said, with the most pertinent being a disconnect between missionaries who lured them to the faith and local church members tasked with keeping them active, he said.

Credit scoring is complicated Dear Mary: I am a retiree and maintain a good credit rating, but it could be better.

That being said, I discussed that with my insurance people who said having charge cards open with no balance is a strike against you in achieving that. That took me by surprise. I currently have one active credit card and pay the balance each month.

However, I do have three charge cards from clothing stores that I seldom use.

Balances are always paid off e a c h month.

EVERYDAY A r e CHEAPSKATE inactive charge c a r d s keeping my credit score low e v e n though t h e y never c a r r y Mary revolving Hunt b a l ances? — Joann Dear Joann: I must take exception to what your insurance people told you.

That information is not correct. Whoever told you that closing any credit card account will improve your credit score is misinformed.

On the contrary, closing any credit card accounts will effectively lower your credit score.

It is important for you to understand that insurance companies use a different credit score when determining premiums than the score a bank will use to issue a credit card account or mortgage.

Your “insurance credit bureau score” originates using the same information (from Equifax, Experian and TransUnion) used by financial services, but also considers information on previous insurance claims. If you filed an auto claim or a claim against your homeowners insurance, for example, that can lower your insurance credit bureau score.

This will explain why your insurance credit score may be lower than, say, the score you received from MyFico.com or one of the credit bureaus.

There is one thing I’m sure we can all agree on: credit scoring is complicated!

Dear Mary: Are you saying that closing a credit card affects your credit rating? I agree to a card for a discounted purchase and immediately close when an item is paid off! Is it better to cut up the card but leave it open at zero balance? — Judith Dear Judith: That is exactly what I am saying. Yes, the inquiry into your credit file followed by issuance of the credit account further followed by closing the account — all three actions will drive down your credit score. Once the damage is done, it’s not easy to reverse.

But it gets worse.

Statistically, that retailer knows the chances of you not closing the account after all and going on to use it to run up revolving debt are much greater than you carrying through with closing it. Why else do you think they would offer you that discount and require every store employee to offer it to you? It’s not like they care about helping you to save money. They are looking at their future profit margins. They are strategically building a big platform of interest-paying customers using very reliable statistics.

Start thinking like a retailer and stop thinking like a consumer. It’s a crazy world out there, and the more people they can convince to open these accounts to get a onetime discount, the better off they’ll be. And you? Not so much if you keep falling for these marketing gimmicks.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 2014 Anita Roddick was an English businesswoman best known for being the founder of The Body Shop, which was one of the first to ban testing on animals. She said, “If you do things well, do them better. Be daring, be first, be different, be just.”

In most pursuits, if your opponent plays well, you must play better to succeed. That applies in this deal, where North and South bid well, but East could defeat their contract with excel-

lent defense.

What should East do when his partner leads the diamond king against four hearts?

North’s four-diamond jump cuebid was a splinter. It showed four-card heart support, the values for (at least) game and at most a singleton diamond. East took the opportunity to show his diamond support with a double. South, of course, had no thoughts of a slam and signed off in four hearts.

(A pass by South here would have been mildly encouraging, expressing some slam interest, but a hand not strong enough to drive the auction above game.)

West leads the diamond king. East sees that there is no defensive club trick available. If his side has a trump trick, it isn’t running away. But if there is no trump winner, the defenders will have to take three spade tricks immediately.

This should make it clear to East that he should overtake the diamond king with his ace and shift to a spade — but to which one?

From J-x-x(-x) or Q-x-x(x), lead low if you need two tricks; but lead high if you need three. East must lead the spade jack at trick two.

Both the Beneficiary and the Trustee have elected to sell the real property to satisfy the obligations secured by the trust deed and a Notice of Default has been recorded pursuant to Oregon Revised Statute 86.752.
