COOS BAY — Oct. 8 is the anniversary of the establishment, in 2001, of the Oregon Cultural Trust. A few years back, it began to celebrate with a weeklong party called the Days of Culture. According to its website, culturaltrust.org, the celebration is traditionally presented by Oregon’s 1,300 cultural organizations, coalitions and tribes. In Coos Bay, the public library has been doing its part through an event called “A Little Lunch Music.” The performances highlight everything from fiddle playing and Celtic music to jazz and folk, with the Marshfield High School Vocal Ensemble featured during the event.

Supreme Court denies five gay marriage appeals BY MARK SHERMAN The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court cleared the way Monday for an immediate expansion of same-sex marriage by unexpectedly and tersely turning away appeals from five states seeking to prohibit gay and lesbian unions. The court’s order effectively makes gay marriage legal in 30 states. Without comment, the justices brought to an end delays in same-sex marriages in five states — Indiana, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin. Couples in six other states — Colorado, Kansas, North Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia and Wyoming — should be able to get married in short order. Those states would be bound by the same appellate rulings that were put on hold pending the Supreme Court’s review No other state cases were currently pending with the high court, but the justices stopped short of resolving for now the question of same-sex marriage nationwide. Still,

PORTLAND — A generation of Oregonians has never lived under a Republican governor, and state Rep. Dennis Richardson would like to show them what it’s like. If Richardson is to topple Oregon’s longest serving governor, though, he’ll have to introduce himself to an electorate that doesn’t know him and overcome his party’s dismal reputation in Oregon. But his biggest hurdle is more fundamental — his conservative views on abortion and gay marriage, and the fiery language he’s used to express them. His staunch conservatism helped Richardson jumpstart his political career in southern Oregon, but it’s become a liability in the more liberal — and more populated — Willamette Valley. Richardson hasn’t changed his views, but he’s trying hard to change the subject.

“The social issues have been determined,” Richardson said. “They’re not up for debate. It’s not an issue.” Despite his best efforts, however, they very much are an issue, in large part because Richardson’s critics have made sure of it with a $200,000 advertising campaign. Richardson says he’d enforce the laws, no matter how distasteful he finds them. As co-chairman of the Legislature’s budget committee, he points out, he helped oversee creation of an Oregon Health Plan budget that included funding for abortion. “Do I like the idea? Not particularly,” he said in a recent interview with The Associated Press. “But that wasn’t my job to enforce my own viewpoint. My job was to ensure that the best interests of the state were dealt with. And as governor, that’s what I will do.” Richardson’s critics aren’t comSEE RICHARDSON | A8

PORTLAND — For the half-million Oregon voters who reject party labels, the May election ballot can be pretty boring. Shut out of the Republican and Democratic primaries, this growing bloc of voters is left with a handful of nonpartisan local races and a perplexing question: Is it necessary to vote for all these judges running unopposed? This November, Oregon voters decide whether to enliven their primary ballots. Under Measure 90, the state would abandon partisan primaries and adopt a top-two election system similar to what is used in neighboring
possible for U.S.
Washington and California. Instead of only Democrats voting in the Democratic primary and only Republicans voting in the Republican primary, the measure would put all candidates on a single ballot and allow everyone — including nonaffiliated voters — the chance to vote. The top two vote-getters would advance to the general election in November, even if they are from the same party. Supporters contend the measure increases fairness by giving independent voters a voice. Their other selling point is that centrist candidates would have a better chance of going to Salem or Washington D.C., because
WASHINGTON (AP) — Ahead of a White House meeting on the Ebola outbreak, federal health officials said Monday the U.S. is weighing whether to institute extra screening at U.S. airports where travelers from Ebola-stricken African nations may be arriving. Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said “all options are being looked at.” The question, Fauci told CNN, is whether “the extra level of screening is going to be worth the resources you need to put into it.” “There is clear-cut screening going on in the exit end,” Fauci said, referring to the screening of outbound passengers before they leave Ebola-affected countries. The current U.S. discussion, he said, centers on “what kind of screening you do on the entry end. That’s something that’s on the table now.” Officials are seeking a balance between “the

Opinion theworldlink.com/news/opinion
Fear as basis for control Americans now face beheadings, gang warfare, Ebola, ISIS and a new war in Syria. It’s natural to assume that the world has gotten more dangerous. But it hasn’t. People believe that crime has gotten worse. But over the past two decades, murder and robbery in the U.S. are down by more than half, and rape by a third, even as complaints about “rape culture” grow louder. Terrorism is a threat. But deaths from war are a fraction of what they were half a century ago, when we fought World War II and the Korean War, and Chairman Mao murdered millions. Despite today’s wars in Iraq, Syria, etc., last decade saw the fewest deaths from war since record keeping began. Last week’s beheading in Oklahoma and other despicable acts of terrorism are frightening, but Americans are unlikely to be killed. Terrorists killed 18,000 people last year, but only 16 were American. Every death is tragic — but even if terrorists pulled off a World Trade Center attack every few years, President Obama would still be correct when he said, “If you had to choose any moment to be born in human history, you’d choose this time. The world is less violent than it has ever been. It is healthier than it has ever been.” He was mocked for saying that — and much of what our president says is deceitful and should be mocked — but that statement was true. Thanks to miraculous innovation created by free markets, fewer people languish in poverty, JOHN and we live longer than STOSSEL ever. The average American now lives 79 Columnist years. (Much of that innovation happened despite attacks on markets by Obama and his cronies, but that’s another story.) For most people, and most Americans, life is better. Of course, as big problems such as Nazis and the Soviet empire fade, the media find new things to scare us about. CBS’s Bob Schieffer proclaimed, “We are in a very dangerous time right now, even more so, perhaps, than at the height of the cold war!” More danger than when thousands of Soviet nuclear missiles were aimed at us? Give me a break. Since crime is down, the media find the few cities, such as Indianapolis and Bismarck, North Dakota, where crime is up. If they can’t find increased crime, they focus on rare, lurid cases like mass shootings and serial killers. Even as life gets safer, people get the impression that the world is falling apart. Then rule-makers overreact. Bureaucrats pass “zero tolerance” policies toward guns in schools so strict that a 7-year-old boy in Maryland was suspended for chewing his Pop-Tart into the shape of a gun. In New Jersey, a 13-year-old was suspended for twirling his pencil in a way that reminded another student of a gun. He was ordered to undergo psychological evaluation and strip-searched by the New Jersey Department of Children and Family. Movie stars (many of whom have armed bodyguards) make commercials that demand others not be allowed to buy guns. Some apologize for using guns in their films, and then hypocritically go on to make ever more violent films. Movie producer Harvey Weinstein said, “I have to choose movies that aren’t violent, or as violent as they used to be. I can’t make one movie and say this is what I want for my kids and then just go out and be a hypocrite.” Sure he can! His new film is “The Hateful Eight,” directed by Quentin Tarantino. Even the poster shows a trail of blood. Tarantino is more honest than his producer, pointing out that there’s no good evidence that entertainment creates violence: “This has gone back to Shakespeare’s days ... the cry that comes: blame the play-makers.” He’s right. Movie violence is up. So is video-game violence. But violent crime is down. We wax nostalgic about the past, but the past was much nastier than today. Fifty years ago, most Americans my age ... were already dead. John Stossel is host of “Stossel” on Fox News and author of “No They Can’t! Why Government Fails, but Individuals Succeed.”

Letters to the Editor Pipeline a blight on the land Thank you, Dr. MacGregor (Aug. 28 letter) for rightfully pointing out the numerous negative aspects of the proposed LNG project. For those of you in favor of this project, we have a few questions: 1. Is the proposed pipeline going through your property? (It’s going through ours.) 2. How about next to your water supply? (It’s going next to ours.) 3.Do you realize how many private farm lands and streams will be ruined by this 36-inch pipeline that will take a swath as wide as Newmark Avenue to bury it? 4. Why won’t the county and FERC support the alternate route of going over Blue Ridge, where no private property and fewer streams would be affected? 5. Do you really think the pollution, destruction to our environment and adverse reaction to those with health issues is worth the few temporary jobs and promises of payment? 6. Have you considered the negative impact this will have on property values? 7. Are you prepared for an explosion in the event of an earthquake? 8. Are we just going to sit back and let money hungry vultures who don’t give a hoot what happens to Coos County dictate what we do here? In a recent conversation with an ex-Coos County commissioner, he stated how good this was going to be for industry since they will be able to purchase the gas cheaper because of its local availability. If this is true, then why is it that oysters grown locally here are cheaper in Idaho, and back when the gas tankers came into Coos Bay and off-loaded fuel into the large tanks at the end of Newmark Avenue, the cheapest gas was in Central Oregon? He had no answer to that. Do you? Those of us who are the so called “naysayers” want to see Coos County thrive as much as the next one, but this is not the answer. And no, we are not all newcomers to the area who don’t want to see things change, some of us are third generation landowners. For all of you who think this project is the answer to Coos County’s depressed economy, please think again, this time with an open mind. Look in your backyard and imagine a potentially dangerous 36-inch pipeline going through it where your children/grandchildren play. Please re-read Dr. MacGregor’s letter. He has it right!

DeFazio cares about South Coast I am using this forum to express my appreciation for the close contact that Congressman Peter DeFazio maintains with the people of the Oregon coast. In recent town hall meetings he demonstrated his characteristic interest in the varied concerns facing the people of his district. In regards to the Jordan Cove LNG
questions, Peter listened to opinions from both sides. It would be a tough task to find a representative who is more involved in or more knowledgeable about the dilemmas facing the voters. One declaration that impressed me was the congressman’s pledge to fight for a fair deal for the property owners who might be impacted by the proposed pipeline. DeFazio has proven time and again that he cares about regular people at least as much as some politicians care about the billionaires who back them. George Nixon Coos Bay
NB tow trucks still in violation On June 11, The World published this Letter to the Editor from North Bend Mayor Rick Wetherell: “With interest I read ‘The World’ editorial of May 31, encouraging us to ‘bend the rules’ on occasion. I would be interested in knowing when, where and under whose authority this ‘bending’ would be allowed or stopped. Would ‘bending’ be allowed in traffic rules, tax rules and expanded to all rules existent in our society? … as an elected official, I do not have that option to bend the law, no matter how much I want to or how much ‘The World’ would encourage me to do so.” But read this 10/25/11 “World” editorial. “North Bend officials are letting down their constituents by not aggressively going after a business owner who is parking tow trucks in front of his home. Neighbors are justified in their complaints that the city is turning a blind eye. If a city is going to issue and deny permits, it should have the teeth to back up its decisions. “Last week … neighbors attended a city planning commission meeting to complain about North Bend Towing. Owner Frank Amatisto has a permit allowing one — and only one — tow truck to be parked outside.The former city councilor must have known parking multiple trucks outside his home wasn’t covered by his permit. Why else would he have sought a new permit allowing multiple trucks? “For many months, neighbors have complained that Amatisto is violating his business permit and, by extension, the law. Neighbors’ complaints largely have fallen on deaf ears. It’s time for North Bend to right this wrong.” In November 2013, the planning commission heard my appeal on the planner’s inaction. “He (Wetherell) said it’s relatively apparent to him that there have been violations, then the city needs to uphold the ordinances and uphold the home occupancy permit and make them accountable. But he didn’t think approving the appeal was the only solution. He said, the solution lies with you people.” Councilor Erbele said, “Where the ordinance says the planner has the ‘power and duty to uphold the zoning ordinance,’ does it say ‘Must’?” Bending the rules, council upheld the planner’s lack of enforcement for Amatistos’ repeated zoning violations. There’s a new hearing on
appeal in November. Susanna Noordhoff North Bend
A plea to vote yes for marijuana After two heart attacks and a stoke, I was suffering with a myriad of medical issues, including 24/7 pain from hyperaesthesia, dizziness, mushy-head and emotional issues. My doctor tried many drugs on me to alleviate pain and address my other problems, to no avail. When nothing seemed to work he relented to have me try medical marijuana. Finally I got my life back and found relief from most of my problems. I was on the pot for three years, during which time I had lost 40 pounds and my overall physical and emotional health improved to the point I had forgotten many of the things that kept me sick in the first place. Then all of a sudden, my doctor told me he couldn’t prescribe it anymore due to philosophical issues with the corporate owners of the clinic that he worked for. He cut me off cold turkey without any consideration for the improvement it had made in my health over the time I was on it or consultation about what I should do to compensate for the drug. He didn’t even bother to offer me another form of treatment. The people of Oregon approved medical marijuana in 1998. There’s no reason to allow doctors to deny their patients a drug that actually works. There’s so much evidence that this drug works for a wide range of afflictions. We must legalize marijuana, especially if doctors are denying it to patients based on their opinions on religious, political or philosophical issues and not on proven and sound medical science. All my doctor had to do was refer to my medical history to be assured that pot was working for me and may have even extended my life. I’m urging everyone to vote yes on ballot measure 91.Don’t let law enforcement control the conversation or talking points by spreading misinformation and lies like they did the last time legalization was on the ballot. If you have experience with pot, please do as I’m doing: Write a letter to the editor of your local paper and spread some truth around. I’m hoping more people will inundate the voting public with the positives and some of the bonus issues like more tax dollars in our coffers, etc. Jim Puglia Myrtle Point
Heed the dangers of WIFI towers I recently became very concerned when I read about the new upgraded cell phone and WIFI tower installation at the Bandon School District track. I have researched wireless technology and have found more data that shows the harmful effects of cell phones, cell towers, WIFI and other forms of high frequency radiation. The International Association of Fire Fighters already has taken heed to the increasing evidence and has now made a resolution to stop all cell tower installations at fire stations. The electromagnetic fields

Office trainer seeks right way to dress-down code violators DEAR ABBY: I am a male in the training department at my office. A lot of times, because the people I train are new hires, there are dress code violations from people who appear to be testing the limits. Most of the violations involve women who wear clothing that’s too revealing, in spite of the fact they receive a document at the start of training explaining what is and is not DEAR appropriate attire. I feel uncomforta b l e addressing dress code issues with the opposite sex. I have a l w a y s JEANNE a PHILLIPS asked female in the department to do it for me. My problem is, my manager has told me I need to be able to deal with issues like this if I want to move forward in my career. My question to you and your readers is, as a woman, would you feel more uncomfortable with a male boss addressing a “too much cleavage” or “skirt too short” issue than you would with another female? And have you any suggestions for wording in these situations? — DRESSED FOR SUCCESS IN VIRGINIA DEAR DRESSED FOR SUCCESS: Speaking for myself, I think I’d prefer to hear that message from another woman — however, MY preference is beside the point. You have a job to do, and that is to enforce the rules of your company. So when you tell a female employee that she’s not complying with the dress code, use the wording in the employee handbook or the document the person received when she was hired. (Hopefully, the wording is specific.) DEAR ABBY: I have a question about where and when to have a retirement party. I know it’s inappropriate for families to host a baby shower, but is that true of a retirement party? My husband has worked for a nonprofit for 14 years and will retire in a few months. There isn’t an appropriate site for a party at his work. I have suggested an open house at our home a couple of weeks after his retirement date. My daughter thinks her house would be better because we are not supposed to have it. My son-in-law dislikes entertaining at home, so I know it would be stressful for them. If we have it at our house, we can encourage friends and co-workers to come over again and stay in touch. I love to entertain and would happily prepare the food and decorate. Am I on the right track, Abby? — HAPPY THAT HUBBY’S RETIRING DEAR HAPPY: You’re absolutely on the right track. No rule of etiquette forbids you from hosting the party for your husband if you wish. According to Emily Post: “A retirement party may ... be given by family and friends instead of — or in addition to — a company party. It’s generally a good idea to invite a few of the retiree’s close work mates. Because they share a work history with the retiree, they’ll be able to speak of specific accomplishments in any speeches and toasts.” Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

News of the West Cave complex hosts important find KLAMATH FALLS (AP) — The National Park Service has added a Lake County cave complex to the National Register of Historic Places, after researchers find evidence of human occupation in Oregon beginning 12,300 years ago. That’s nearly 1,000 years earlier than previously thought, reported The Klamath Falls Herald and News reports. Excavations began at the Paisley the Paisley Five Mile Point Caves in the 1930s. In 2002, students from the University of Oregon renewed the search for human remains. A sandal from the cave complex is on display at the Klamath County Museum. The sandal dates back 8,000 to 9,000 years and was excavated by University of Oregon professor and archaeologist Luther Cressman, who initiated the digs at Paisley and nearby Fort Rock Cave. “The site helps us understand more about how people were getting into the area, though it’s still unanswered in a lot of ways,” Reynolds said. Paisley Five Mile Point Caves are managed by the Bureau of Land Management. “BLM is pleased to see the Paisley Five Mile Points

In this July 23, 2008, file photo University of Oregon archaeologist Dennis Jenkins poses for a photo in a cave outside Paisley, Ore., where excavations unearthed a coprolite, fossilized feces, that contained human DNA and was radiocarbon dated to 14,300 years ago.The site has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places. officially listed in the National Register of Historic Places,” said Stan McDonald, state archaeologist for Oregon and Washington for the BLM. “The site’s listing underscores the importance of Oregon’s archaeological heritage to understanding the full breadth of the human experience.” The caves’ artifacts and organic remains, such as preserved feces, called coprolites, are some of the
earliest artifacts in North America and provide clues to how humans lived and moved across North America, Reynolds said. Findings at Paisley predate by more than 1,000 years the appearance of southwest Clovis sites, which are known for distinctive projectile point artifacts. For many years, the Clovis have been widely accepted as the first humans to settle in the Americas. Archaeological excava-
tions and extensive laboratory analyses conducted by the University of Oregon students, who were led by Dr. Dennis Jenkins, concluded that more than 200 coprolites containing human DNA radiocarbon dated to preClovis times. The discovery of 14,300year-old human feces demonstrates the presence of an ancient human population in America’s Far West at the end of the last Ice Age.
Citizens get to name wolf packs they discover SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — While they view predators from widely different viewpoints, Steve Gilbertson, a hiker, Ross Hurd, a rancher, and Bob Jensen, a hunter, are among Washington’s most distinguished wolf watchers. Each had a role in documenting new wolf packs, earning the honor to dub the packs with their official names. Outdoor lifestyles put the men in touch with the elusive wild canines. Sharing the information with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife is helping biologists manage a controversial critter protected by state endangered species laws. “Washington is a big state and we can’t be everywhere,” said Scott Becker, the agency’s coordinator for wolf research capture and radioefforts. “The collaring information we get from the public is invaluable.” State officials define a wolf pack as two wolves of either sex traveling together. Most wolf packs have 5-10 wolves. The Smackout Pack once had 12. The state wolf manage-
ment plan looks more specifically to “successful breeding pairs,” which must include a male and female with at least two pups that survive until the end of December. At least 15 breeding pairs must be scattered over three regions of the state before state endangered species protections can be eased. Washington currently has 14 confirmed wolf packs with at least three more suspected packs. Five breeding packs had been identified at the end of 2013 and at least two more pairs were known to have had pups this year. A pair of wolves has been tracked by department biologists in Whitman County near Ewan, but documenting a pack needs more evidence, such as a photo from a motion-activated trail camera showing two wolves in one frame. Gilbertson is the most unlikely of the wolf-pack finders. “I’m just a hiker and mountain biker,” the Spokane pharmacist said. “I don’t hunt with a gun, but I love to hunt wildlife with cameras.”
He began adding a purpose to those passions a few years ago by putting up trail cams in remote locations about an hour’s drive north of Spokane. “I like to put them out at least 3 miles from a trailhead or gate to make a good hike out of checking on them,” he said during a camera-checking hike with pal Scott Stevens. His trail cam photo album features a wildlife smorgasbord, including squirrels, cougars, bobcats, coyotes, deer, wild turkeys and other birds, elk and elk hunters who occasionally mugged for the camera, moose - lots of moose. On June 22, 2013, a wolf appeared in a frame. “I was on fire, I was so excited,” he said. “I’d seen tracks before. Finally, a photo.” He put out more cameras. In mid-October, he had a prize of statewide significance. One of his cameras scored several frames showing two wolves. He and Stevens put out more cameras and documented pairs several more times through fall and winter. They delivered the
evidence to WDFW biologists, who went into the field and verified a new pack. Gilbertson got the privilege of naming it. Carpenter Ridge Pack is named for a friend, not a geographic title found on a map of Pend Oreille County. “Mike Carpenter introduced me to that area when he learned I liked to hike, bike and watch for animals,” Gilbertson said. “He got sick and died young in 2011. Showing me that area near Boyer Mountain, where his family hunts, was one of the most significant things anyone has ever shared with me.” Most of Washington’s wolf packs were named for nearby geographic features by the wolf researchers who documented them, but three other pack names have a more personal touch. Nc’icn Pack, pronounced n-TSEE-tsn, was confirmed in the Sanpoil River Valley by the Colville Tribe. “We wanted to come up with a name from one of our reservation’s language groups,” said Randall Friedlander, tribal fish and wildlife director.
Bookstore featured on ‘Portlandia’ facing woes PORTLAND (AP) — The real Portland bookstore featured in comedy sketches about a feminist bookstore on the TV show “Portlandia” is in financial trouble. Board members of the In Other Words feminist community center met Sunday to discuss the money problems. The Oregonian reports board member Jane Knechtel says “Portlandia” has given the illusion the space is rolling in money. The IFC show pays a fee to film there, but that’s only two or three times a year.

Canal-clogging weed found along river SALEM (AP) — An aquatic weed capable of clogging irrigation canals and other waterways has appeared along the shores of the Columbia River in Oregon for the first time. Six patches of flowering rush, an invasive Eurasian species, up to 10 feet in diameter were found growing east of McNary Dam near Umatilla this summer.
However, the weeds have yet to be removed as state officials must confer with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which has jurisdiction over the river, about federal permits for eliminating the plants.

ARTESIA, N.M. (AP) — Trailers have been set up for a school at a federal immigration detention center in an isolated New Mexico desert town. A basketball court and a soccer field have been installed. And detainees are pleading their cases over a video link with judges in Denver. Officials say that the facility, billed as a temporary place to house women and children from Central America who were among a wave of immigrants who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border illegally this year, could remain open until next summer. “All of us would love us to see the doors close in Artesia but the reality is the need will probably be there and probably until the end of the high season, probably August next year,” a government official told immigration advocates in a recent confidential meeting. The AP had access to a recording of the meeting with the official, whose name or position was not identified. The detainees at the Artesia Family Residential Center, meanwhile, are growing increasingly frustrated that they are being held with no end in sight while earlier border-crossers were released with orders to contact immigration officials later. “I’m being punished for coming here, they tell us,” said Geraldyn Perez. She said she fled death threats by gangs in Guatemala. The center opened as federal officials were realizing over the summer that the of borderthousands crossers they released had disappeared into the nation’s interior and never showed up for any meetings with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials. The government official in the recorded confidential meeting acknowledged that about 70 percent of the released families vanished. The official explained to human rights activists that prolonged detention of children and mothers is “not punitive,” adding that detention is not a tool for deterring would-be immigrants, many of them who have made claims of asylum. Instead, he said, “the deterrence is that you’re not going to come to the United States and you’re automatically here and you’ll never be removed.” advocates Immigration say that a federal report by the Citizenship and Immigration Service’s asylum unit to activists says only 37.8 percent of the Artesia detainees pass their initial interviews for asylum, compared to the 62.7 percent national average. And for those who are eligible for release, bonds have been set as high as $25,000 or $30,000 or about five times the national average, according to immigration lawyer Stephen Manning, who has volunteered in Artesia. Housing more than 500 women and children at any given time, ICE said, the Artesia location remains an “effective and humane” piece in the government’s response to the unprecedented influx of adults with children arriving at the southern border.

A cheapskate state of mind I’m sure I could lecture about frugality and living below your means as a way of life until my face turned blue and write until my computer exploded in a fit of rebellion and still not achieve the impact of a success story like this one from Kelly D., who lives in Colorado. “Shortly after my husband and I were married, the first credit card application showed up. At first, I was dead-set against EVERYDAY it CHEAPSKATE filling out, but after a l i t t l e coaxing from my husband, I gave in. O f course, others followed Mary s h o r t ly. Hunt E a c h time we had an emergency — car repairs, unpaid taxes, a weekend getaway — we’d pull out a card. It all seemed so easy. Before I knew it, we had three or four cards that were all nearly charged to the limit. “We tried setting up a plan to pay off the debts. The money was always there on paper, but somehow I never saw it in the account. My husband and I would tell each other things would be much better once the next raise, next promotion or next job came along. Somehow it never worked out that way. That was how things were our first five years together. “In no time at all, we found ourselves over $20,000 in debt with little to show for it. Making more money was NOT the answer. I needed to find a better way to put the money we had to work for us. I needed a lot of information and a little encouragement. I needed help! “I found just what I needed at Debt-Proof Living (www.debtproofliving.com) and in this daily column. Not only have I developed a cheapskate mindset, but I learned so much about cutting costs through so much practical information. I also learned (or relearned) the pitfalls of “debting,” the value of saving and the importance of paying myself first. To date, my husband and I have paid off nearly half of our total debt. “If we continue to follow our repayment plan, by the end of the year we will only have a small balance on my husband’s school loan remaining. We will then be able to begin saving for our first home. In addition, we have joined my husband’s 401(k) plan, have begun a savings account and set up a Freedom Account to help cover those ‘emergencies’ that are bound to happen. “Our efforts at debt repayment have not come without sacrifice. Nothing worthwhile ever does. I have been as determined to remain at home with our three young children as I have been about repaying our debts. For us to be able to achieve this, we have been delivering newspapers, and I have been babysitting at home. While this may seem like a heavy load to bear, it is nothing compared to the burden of debt we have been carrying. “Thank you again for starting us down the right path and helping us to achieve our financial goals.” Wow, I am so proud of Kelly and her family for what they are doing. I am impressed by their willingness to make the necessary sacrifices to get out of debt. They will never regret this short-term situation that is going to lead to long-term peace and joy!

NEWS D I G E S T Protest sites quiet after tumultuous week HONG KONG (AP) — Student-led protests for democratic reforms in Hong Kong subsided Monday but a few hundred demonstrators remained camped out in the streets, vowing to keep up the pressure until the government responds to their demands. Schools reopened and civil servants returned to work Monday morning after protesters cleared the area outside the city’s government headquarters, a focal point of the demonstrations that started the previous weekend. Crowds also thinned markedly at the two other protest sites, and traffic flowed again through many road that had been blocked. The subdued scenes left many wondering whether the movement, which has been free-forming and largely spontaneous, had run its course, and what the students would do next.
Police actions based on misunderstanding WASHINGTON (AP) — People can’t plead ignorance of the law to excuse a violation. The first case of the new Supreme Court term Monday tests whether there’s a double standard when it comes to the police. A case from North Carolina turns on whether an officer’s mistaken belief about a state law still can justify a traffic stop that led to the discovery of cocaine. The justices are beginning their fifth year together, and Chief Justice John Roberts is at the start of his 10th year at the head of the high court.
Typhoon washes 3 Americans out to sea TOKYO (AP) — A powerful typhoon that washed three American airmen in Okinawa out to sea, killing at least one, slammed central Japan on Monday, stalling trains and flights and triggering mudslides, before swerving to the Pacific Ocean.

3 win medicine Nobel for discovering brain’s GPS STOCKHOLM (AP) — A U.S.-British scientist and a Norwegian husband-andwife research team won the Nobel Prize in medicine Monday for discovering the brain’s navigation system — the inner GPS that helps us find our way in the world — a revelation that one day could help those with Alzheimer’s. The research by John O’Keefe, May-Britt Moser and Edvard Moser represents a “paradigm shift” in neuroscience that could help researchers understand the sometimes severe spatial memory loss associated with Alzheimer’s disease, the Nobel Assembly said. “This year’s Nobel Laureates have discovered a positioning system, an ‘inner GPS’ in the brain, that makes it possible to orient ourselves in space,” the assembly said. O’Keefe, 75, a dual U.S. and British citizen at the University College London, discovered the first component of this system in 1971 when he found that a certain
type of nerve cell was always activated when a rat was at a certain place in a room. He demonstrated that these “place cells” were building up a map of the environment, not just registering visual input. Thirty-four years later, in 2005, May-Britt Moser and Edvard Moser, married neuroscientists at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim, identified another type of nerve cell — the “grid cell” — that generates a coordinate system for precise positioning and path-finding, the assembly said. It was the fourth time that a married couple has shared a Nobel Prize and the second time in the medicine category. “This is crazy,” an excited May-Britt Moser, 51, told The Associated Press by telephone from Trondheim. She said her 52-year-old husband didn’t immediately find out about the prize because he was flying Monday morning to the Max
Planck Institute in Munich, Germany, to demonstrate their research. “This is such a great honor for all of us and all the people who have worked with us and supported us,” she said, adding they had been together for 30 years. “We are going to continue and hopefully do even more groundbreaking work in the future.” Hege Tunstad, a spokeswoman at the university in Trondheim, said May-Britt Moser “needed a minute to cry and speak with her team” when she first heard the news. Edvard Moser told the Norwegian news agency NTB he only discovered he had won after he landed in Munich, turned on his cellphone and saw a flood of emails, text messages and missed calls. “I didn’t know anything. When I got off the plane there was a representative there with a bouquet of flowers who said ‘congratulations on the prize,”’ he was
quoted as saying. O’Keefe, a New York-born scientist who moved to England for postdoctoral training, found the “place cells” in a part of the brain called the hippocampus. The Mosers,meanwhile,identified the “grid cells” in a nearby section of the brain known as the entorhinal cortex. The Nobel Assembly said the discoveries marked a shift in scientists’ understanding of how specialized cells work together to perform complex cognitive tasks. They have also opened new avenues for understanding cognitive functions such as memory, thinking and planning. “Thanks to our grid and place cells, we don’t have to walk around with a map to find our way each time we visit a city, because we have that map in our head,” said Juleen Zierath, chair of the medicine prize committee. “I think, without these cells, we would have a really hard time to survive.”
Turkey cracks down on oil smuggling linked to IS HACIPASA, Turkey (AP) — Sevda, a 22-year-old waitress in a brown apron, recounts how she made a small fortune running smuggled diesel from a village on Turkey’s wild and dangerous border with Syria. But the days when she could earn 20 times her salary waiting tables came to an abrupt end several months ago when police arrested her and slapped her employers with a massive fine. The smuggled fuel came from oil wells in Iraq or Syria controlled by militants, including the Islamic State group, and was sold to middlemen who smuggled it across the Turkish-Syrian border. Western intelligence officials have alleged that Turkey is turning a blind eye to a flourishing trade that strengthens the Islamic State group, and Secretary of State John Kerry has called on Turkey to do more to stem the trade. Analysts estimate that the Islamic State group gets up to $3 million a day in revenue from oil fields seized in Iraq and Syria.
But in about two dozen interviews, Turkish authorities, smugglers and vendors along Turkey’s 900-kilometer border with Syria paint a remarkably similar picture: Oil smuggling was a booming business until about six months ago, when Turkish authorities ramped up a The Associated Press multi-layered crackdown that In this Sept. 20 file photo, Turkish anti-smuggling experts check a truck has significantly disrupted the illicit trade.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — An American video journalist who contracted Ebola while working in Liberia has arrived at a Nebraska hospital, where he will be treated for the deadly disease. Ashoka Mukpo, 33, arrived by ambulance Monday at the Nebraska Medical Center, where he will be kept in a specialized biocontainment unit built specifically to handle this type of illness. Mukpo was working in Liberia as a freelance cameraman for NBC News when he became ill last week. He is the fifth American sickened with Ebola to return to the U.S. for treatment during the latest outbreak, which the World Health Organization estimates has killed more than 3,400 people. Meanwhile, a Liberian man with Ebola who started showing symptoms while visiting the U.S. is in critical condition at a Dallas hospital. Mukpo’s father, Dr. Mitchell Levy, told NBC Sunday that his son was “counting the minutes” until he could leave Liberia, but that he was not feeling that ill Sunday. His parents traveled from Rhode Island to Nebraska to be with Mukpo, but during his treatment they will have to rely on a video chat system in his hospital room to communicate with him. Doctors at the isolation unit — the largest of four in the U.S. — will evaluate Mukpo before determining how to treat him. They said they will apply the lessons treating while learned American aid worker Rick Sacra, who was allowed to home to return Massachusetts after three weeks, on Sept. 25. Sacra received an experimental Tekmira Pharmaceuticals drug called TKM-Ebola, as well as two blood transfusions from another American aid worker who recovered from Ebola at an Atlanta hospital. The transfusions are believed to help a patient fight off the virus because the survivor’s blood carries antibodies for the disease. Sacra also received supportive care, including IV fluids and aggressive electrolyte management. After Sacra was released, the Nebraska Medical Center set up a separate lab within the isolation unit, so test results would be available more quickly and samples wouldn’t have to be sent across campus to the main lab.

Wealthy giving less to charity; Utah tops states Los Angeles charity serving homeless people, credited gifts from low- and moderate-income people for helping sustain its programs during the recession. “It hits closer to home,” said Phillips. “Any day, they too could become homeless.” The Chronicle’s editor, Stacy Palmer, noted that wealthy donors, overall, were more oriented toward support of the arts and higher education than lower-income donors, and less oriented toward support of socialservice charities. At the state level, residents of Utah were the nation’s most generous, donating $65.60 to charity for every $1,000 they earned. One factor is Utah’s large presence of Mormons, whose church practices call for them to give at least 10 percent of their income to charity. Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee — also with high proportions of loyal churchgoers — were next in the rankings. At the bottom of the list was New Hampshire, where residents gave $17.40 for every $1,000 they earned. Its neighbors, Maine and Vermont, were the next lowest. Palmer suggested that the low rankings for northern New England stemmed in part from low rates of church attendance, but also from residents’ “independent streak” and a tradition of self-reliance.

MUSIC Series runs through Friday Continued from Page A1 “It was (former library director) Carol Ventgen’s brainchild,” says assistant library director Ellen Thompson. “It celebrates the culture of communities, and it has been very well received. A few years back, the Black Market Gourmet got involved and started providing homemade soup and bread, for a modest fee.” On a grand scale, Days of Culture also launches the Cultural Trust’s fundraising season. On the local level, Thompson says, it is a great way to bring the community together. “Part of the proceeds from the Black Market Gourmet also goes to the Library Foundation, but we have such a culture here to celebrate and we also want to get people to come into the library to see all that we have to offer.”
COURT Decides to leave rulings in place Continued from Page A1 those 11 states would bring to 30 the number of states where same-sex marriage is legal, plus the District of Columbia. Challenges are pending in every state. Evan Wolfson, president of Freedom to Marry, called on the high court to “finish the job.” Wolfson said the court’s “delay in affirming the freedom to marry nationwide prolongs the patchwork of state-to-state discrimination and the harms and indignity that the denial of marriage still inflicts on too many couples in too many places.” Ed Whelan of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, an opponent of same-sex marriage, also chastised the court for its “irresponsible denial of review in the cases.” Whelan said it is hard to see how the court could eventually rule in favor of same-sex marriage bans after having allowed so many court decisions striking down those

Experts and advocates on both sides of the issue had expected the justices to step in and decide gay marriage cases this term. The justices have an obligation to settle an issue of such national importance, not abdicate that responsibility to lower court judges, the advocates said. Opting out of hearing the cases leaves those lower court rulings in place. Two other appeals courts, in Cincinnati and San Francisco, could issue decisions any time in same-sex marriage cases. Judges in the Cincinnati-based 6th Circuit who are weighing pro-gay marriage rulings in Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee, appeared more likely to rule in favor of state bans than did the 9th Circuit judges in San Francisco, who are considering Idaho and Nevada restrictions on marriage. It takes just four of the nine justices to vote to hear a case, but it takes a majority of at least five for an eventual ruling. Monday’s opaque order did not indicate how the justices voted on whether to hear the appeals.

forted. A commitment to enforcing the current laws says nothing about how Richardson would act on bills that reach his desk, they say. “As governor, I worry about the appointments that he would make and the agency heads he would hire, and the agency agendas as they relate to providing basic health care for women in Oregon,” said Laura Terrill Patten, executive director of Planned Parenthood Advocates. Richardson prefers to talk about Democratic Gov. John Kitzhaber, who was thought to be nearly invincible when Richardson announced his campaign more than a year ago. While still the front-runner, Kitzhaber is more vulnerable after the failure of the Cover Oregon health insurance enrollment website. Richardson promises a focus on creating jobs and improving one of the nation’s worst high school graduation rates, but he’s less specific about how he’d do it. Richardson, 65, grew up south of Los Angeles, raised along with two older sisters by a carpenter and homemaker. He saved enough delivering newspapers to buy an old sports car, which he later sold to pay his first tuition bill at Brigham Young University. Without another Porsche to pay for more school, to returned Richardson California, where he reconnected with his high school sweetheart. They married and had a son.

returning to BYU, but once again fell short on cash. “It was then we decided I can’t afford to do this, I’m going to get drafted, I should really go enlist,” Richardson said. He joined the Army, was selected to be a helicopter pilot, and after a year of training, went to Vietnam. Though he was never shot,his chopper back came sometimes cratered with bullet holes. He had battles in his personal life, too. While Richardson was deployed, he and his wife were divorced. Ten months into his yearlong tour of duty, with the war winding down, he was offered a chance to leave early and accepted. He returned to the United States and a life he didn’t recognize. He had no job, no wife, owed child support and felt “disoriented.” In his search for the purpose of life, he reconnected with the Mormon faith his father had long before left behind. It changed his life. Richardson got married again and returned to BYU to finish his degree and go to law school. Looking for an affordable place to raise their family, Richardson and his wife, Cathy, settled in southern Oregon. He opened a legal practice and they raised their eight children, all girls. After spending decades to build his practice, he shut it down to focus on his political career. “For Cathy and I, we made the decision we would spend the last 50 years of our lives in service,” Richardson said. “If I’m not the governor, we can serve meals at St. Vincent de Paul.”
PRIMARIES Republicans and Democrats would need to broaden their appeal beyond their primary bases, typically social conservatives and union members, respectively. “We don’t call this a panacea that fixes all the problems with politics,” said Jim Kelly, the chief petitioner. “It’s merely a step in the right direction.” Oregon voters trounced a similar measure six years ago, and opponents maintain it’s still a bad idea. The Republican and Democratic parties, which opt to close their primaries, naturally oppose the measure. But some of the toughest criticism has come from minor parties who worry they’ll never make the November ballot. Labor unions, meanwhile, have contributed much of the $300,000 raised to fight Measure 90 as of Oct. 1. Compared with those who vote in the general election, the primary electorate tends to be older, whiter and more Republican. “There are six different ways that states across this country run primaries, and this ‘top two’ is the only system that limits choice in November, when the overwhelming majority of people are paying attention and the real decisions are made,” said Meghan Moyer, the campaign manager for Protect Our Vote. The campaign in favor of Measure 90 has raised more than $1 million, mostly from business interests. Texas billionaire John Arnold
contributed $500,000. “I believe they want the current group of people who vote in primaries — less diverse, more affluent — to be narrowing the field,” Moyer said. Washington has been using the top-two system since the 2008 primary and California since 2012. This fall’s race in Washington’s 4th Congressional District features two Republicans, something that can’t happen under Oregon’s current system. Kelly, a Democrat who lives on a ranch in Eastern Oregon, does not see that as a problem. In the current system, a Democrat living in rural Oregon faces a choice in November between a conservative Republican and a sacrificial lamb. “My vote doesn’t count; very few essentially Democrats run for races and those few who do don’t have a chance,” Kelly said recently at a Portland bakery. “A Republican living in this neighborhood? Same situation as me out there.” In the top-two format, he said, the outnumbered voter might help elect the less extreme member of the dominant party. Another potential drawback is vote-splitting between several candidates from the same party. In a California primary two years ago,the two Republican candidates advanced to the general election in a district that leans slightly Democrat. It happened because the Republican turnout was stronger, as is common in primaries, and the four Democrats split votes.
the past six months, including Americans returning from travels there. President Barack Obama is scheduled to get an update on the Ebola outbreak Monday afternoon. Five Americans have returned from Africa to the United States for treatment since the start of the latest Ebola outbreak, which the World Health Organization estimates has killed more than 3,400 people. A Liberian man with Ebola who started showing symptoms while visiting the U.S. is in critical condition at a Dallas hospital. The Obama administration has said that it won’t shut
down flights from affected countries, particularly those in West Africa. Fauci reiterated that such a travel ban could end up spreading the epidemic in those countries, making it harder to get aid in, for instance, and further isolating them from treatment. Addressing the White House meeting, Frieden told “CBS This Morning,” “We’re going to be covering many aspects and figure out what we can do” to protect Americans and stop the outbreaks. He added that he was encouraged by ongoing vaccine trials. Fauci noted that the supply of the experimental drug
known as ZMapp, which may have helped American health workers who caught Ebola while working in Liberia, is gone. He said federal officials were helping the drug manufacturer with efforts to boost manufacturing, but that it would be up to two months before any more of the drug is available. Moreover, tests on potential vaccines or treatment drugs need to be done to prove that a drug works. Frieden said he doesn’t believe the disease is going to spread widely in the United States. “We can stop it in its tracks here, which we are doing,” he said.

Last NFL unbeaten teams both fall Manning and Brady hit milestones while their teams beat Arizona and Cincinnati ■
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS So much for the NFL’s unbeatens. The Denver Broncos and New England Patriots took care of that with impressive home victories over the Arizona Cardinals and Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Peyton Manning had four TD throws and Denver (3-1) gained 568 yards the Broncos’ 41-20 victory over the Cardinals. “He’s not in the history books for nothing,” Arizona cornerback Patrick Peterson said. “He just came out here and lit us up.” Tom Brady was nearly as impressive in a 43-17 romp over the Bengals, silencing critics who wondered why the Patriots (3-2) were so mediocre in splitting their first four games. “We played better, we executed better, a lot of guys made a lot of big plays,” said Brady, who topped 50,000 yards passing for his career. “It was a long week, we dug deep ... proud of everybody, it’s a big win.” The weekend began with Green Bay’s 42-10 rout of Minnesota on

New England quarterback Tom Brady celebrates a touchdown by running back Stevan Ridley during Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Brady went over 50,000 passing yards for his career during the Patriots’ win. Thursday night. It ends Monday night when Seattle (2-1) visits Washington (1-3). Off this week were Miami (2-2) and Oakland (0-4). Broncos 41, Cardinals 20: Manning joined Brett Favre with at least 500 touchdown passes and is closing in on Favre’s record. Manning moved within five of Favre’s 508. Manning found tight end Julius Thomas twice in the end zone, including the touchstone touchdown, a 7-yard dart in the first quarter.
“Football is the ultimate team game, and so I guess one man has to accept it and I really accept it on behalf of a lot of coaches and teammates,” Manning said. Manning threw for 479 yards, and Demaryius Thomas set a franchise record with 226 yards on eight catches, beating Shannon Sharpe’s mark of 214 yards set against Kansas City in 2002. Wes Welker’s seven receptions moved him past Rod Smith for the most catches in NFL history by an undrafted player. He has 854.
“I still can’t believe he was undrafted because that man can play some ball,” Demaryius Thomas said. Arizona (3-1) saw quarterback Drew Stanton leave with a possible concussion, and coach Bruce Arians was livid about a chop block that injured defensive end Calais Campbell. “I’ve been coaching for 37 years. It’s the dirtiest play I’ve seen in the National Football League,” Arians said. “Somebody has got to answer to that. A fine isn’t going to do it, when (Campbell) is going to miss three or four weeks, on a blatant chop block.” Patriots 34, Bengals 17: Brady rebounded from the second-worst loss of his career by throwing for two touchdowns and becoming the sixth quarterback to pass for 50,000 yards. Six days after a big loss at Kansas City, the Patriots’ offense broke out of its season-long slump. Brady threw for 292 yards and Stevan Ridley gained 117 of the team’s 221 yards rushing against a team that had allowed an NFL-low 11 points per game. The Patriots surpassed that by scoring on their first two possessions on Ridley’s 1-yard run and Brady’s 17-yard pass to Tim Wright. SEE NFL | B4
Royals finish off sweep of Angels THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals stole their way to a 12-inning victory over the Oakland A’s in the AL wild-card game. They powered their way past the mighty Los Angeles Angels with an emphatic three-game sweep in the divisional round. There’s no way they are going to be intimidated by the Baltimore Orioles. “We’re not afraid of those guys,” Royals ace James Shields said Sunday night.“We’re going to go out there and play our game — but obviously, we’re going to worry about that tomorrow.” On this night, there was celebrating to do. Alex Gordon hit a bases-clearing double in the first inning, Eric Hosmer and Mike Moustakas each homered and the wild-card Royals finished off the Angels with an emphatic 8-3 victory in the AL Division Series. Now, the scrappy team with the unorthodox manager, popgun offense, dynamic defense and lights-out bullpen will head to Baltimore for the AL Championship Series on Friday night. “I was nervous. I’m a nervous wreck. I just can’t show I’m a nervous wreck,” Royals owner David Glass said. But it is great. I’m so proud of this bunch. They’ve grown up.” The same club that was once so far out of the division race that folks in Kansas City had turned their attention to football season has gone on a tremendous tear, painting the entire city blue in the process. They’ve back in the postseason for the first time since 1985, and even Angels manager Mike Scioscia thinks they might be sticking around a while. “They’re going to be a tough team to beat in this tournament,” he said. The power-hitting Angels, 98-64 in the regular season, became the second team in the divisional era that began in 1969 to have the best record in the majors and get swept out of the playoffs, according to STATS. In no small coincidence, the Royals dealt the same humiliating

Kansas City players celebrate following Game 3 of their series sweep over the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday. fate to the New York Yankees in the 1980 ALCS. Stalking around the mound amid an electric atmosphere, Shields lived up to his “Big Game James” billing. The Royals’ ace gave up homers to Mike Trout and Albert Pujols, but otherwise held in check a suddenly punchless Los Angeles lineup Shields was helped, too, by diving grabs by outfielder Lorenzo Cain on back-to-back plays. All told, the highest-scoring team in baseball managed six runs in the entire series. “You don’t go in with any badge saying you won the most games,” Scioscia said, “and you’re certainly not going to get any points for that going into the playoffs.” Kansas City showcased great glovework in every game, especially by its fleet outfielders. In this one, Cain’s catches in the fifth inning preserved a five-run lead. The Royals coasted the rest of the way to
their seventh straight postseason win dating to Game 5 of the 1985 World Series. George Brett, the star of that team, watched from an upstairs suite and raised his arms when ace closer Greg Holland fanned Trout for the final out. “We feel like we belong, that we can play with anyone and that’s always a good feeling,” Cain said. “If we continue to do what we did tonight and let that carry over into Baltimore, I think we can definitely make this thing last.” Right through the World Series? Nothing seems unreasonable at this point. Their game Sunday night almost seemed easy the way things have been going. Kansas City played a 12-inning thriller against Oakland in the wild-card game, and a pair of 11-inning games in Los Angeles before returning home to a raucous, adoring crowd on Sunday night.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — So many drivers studied NASCAR’s new championship Chase format and singled out the second round as the one they feared the most. The difficult three-race stretch of Kansas, Charlotte and Talladega will knock four drivers from the field, and none wanted their championship hopes to be dependent on a good day at Talladega. It meant they had to be solid in the opener of the second round at Kansas Speedway, a notorious track for whittling the field of championship contenders. Kansas lived up to its reputation Sunday as four Chase drivers finished 22nd or worse in a race that was plagued by tire problems for several contenders. The victory went to Joey Logano, who earned an automatic berth into the third round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship and can breathe easier the next two races. “This is nice to get this win and get us through to the next round and not have to worry about Talladega,” Logano said. “We came into here thinking we need a solid finish — we can’t win the championship (at Kansas) but we can definitely lose it.” That was the harsh reality for six-time and defending NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson, his Hendrick Motorsports teammates, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kasey Kahne, and Logano’s Team Penske teammate, Brad Keselowski. Johnson was wrecked early and finished 40th, Earnhardt had a tire problem while leading that caused him to wreck and finish 39th. Keselowski was 36th after his tire problem and Kahne thought a tire issue caused him to hit the wall and finish 22nd. Johnson was level-headed as he spoke from the garage while his crew tried furiously to repair the damage. “It just means we’ve got to be on our game at Charlotte and Talladega,” Johnson said. “We’ll see how the other Chasers fare. If I can get taken out today, somebody else can later in this event or at Charlotte. Certainly need W’s, I would assume, going forward.” Earnhardt, who led 45 laps, was encouraged by his best performance so far in this Chase even if he didn’t have the result to show for his effort. “Just the whole surface of the tire unwound like a string. It just came off the tire and it popped off the corner,” Earnhardt said. “Man, that was a great race car. We hadn’t been running very good the last several weeks.” Keselowski, one of the most vocal drivers about how frightening he found this stretch of the Chase, was not as optimistic. Although he visited teammate Logano in Victory Lane, he was clearly unhappy with his chances taking a hit because of a problem with his Goodyear tire. “It was a game of Russian Roulette and it was our turn at the gun,” Keselowski said. “It was Dale Jr.’s turn at the gun earlier.” The tire issues clearly concerned other drivers in the field. Kevin Harvick, who led 61 laps, pitted from third when he thought his right front tire was flat. Crew chief Rodney Childers reported to Harvick that all the tires were fine, but the damage was done: Harvick had dropped to 23rd, was out of contention for the victory and had to charge his way back to a 12th-place finish. He apologized to his crew over his radio. “I thought I had a flat tire and pitted because you see all the trouble that is going on,” he said after the race, explaining his car simply “didn’t turn.” With only eight of 12 drivers advancing after Talladega, there’s a ton of ground for some very big names to make up in two races. A win over the next two weeks guarantees them a spot in the third round, which begins Oct. 26 at Martinsville. The field will be cut once more after three races and the four remaining drivers will race for the championship at the finale. Team owner Roger Penske was on both sides of the triumph and heartbreak on Sunday as he celebrated with Logano but worried about Keselowski’s fate. The 2012 champion goes to Saturday night’s race ranked in the bottom four of the Chase standings with Kahne, Earnhardt and Johnson.

Sports Beavers run past Colorado
Sun Devils win with Hail Mary THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Oregon State, with a welldeserved reputation as a strong passing team, leaned on its improved running game to pull out a tense victory over Colorado. Terron Ward ran for 102 yards and two touchdowns, including a 10-yard score with 5:09 remaining, and Oregon State’s defense turned away Colorado’s lastgasp drive as the Beavers hung on to beat the Buffaloes 36-31 on Saturday. “It’s very good to run,” Oregon State Coach Mike Riley said. “We all know it was kind of an Achilles’ heel for us until the very last part of season last year. It looked like good, balanced football today and that will help us as we go forward.” Sean Mannion, bouncing back from a rough outing in last week’s loss at Southern Cal, completed 27 of 37 for 278 yards and his lone touchdown pass came in the fourth quarter to help Oregon State (4-1, 1-1 Pac-12) fend off Colorado (2-4, 0-3). Storm Woods, complementing Ward, added 69 yards rushing and a score for the Beavers, who averted back-to-back conference road losses for the first time since 2003. “We were expecting a battle and as you saw, it was right down to the last possession,” Mannion said. “I think it was good that we could come right out after a tough, tough loss and handle a road game, handle the environment and handle a tough opponent and really play well.” Sefo Liufau completed 32 of 49 for 308 yards and two touchdowns, both to Tyler McCulloch. But with Colorado facing a fourth down at the Oregon State 40 in the last couple of minutes, Liufau, with two Oregon State

Oregon State running back Terron Ward scores a touchdown against Colorado in the first half Saturday. defenders in his face, threw incomplete. The Beavers took over and Mannion took a knee three times to run out the final moments. It was another tough loss for Colorado, which endured a wrenching 59-56 doubleovertime loss at Cal last week. The Buffaloes have lost five consecutive conference games. “I feel like we’re ready to break through,” Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre said. “It looks better. It feels better. It’s just gut-wrenching when you lose like we’ve lost.” Defensive lineman Timothy Coleman broke through to sack Mannion for a 9-yard loss to the Colorado 29-yard line and the Buffaloes’ defense forced two more incompletions before Trevor Romaine came on to kick his third field goal, a 47yarder that put the Beavers back in front 23-21 with 6:47 remaining in the third quarter. Oregon State extended the lead with a drive that included a key third-down conversion on a Ward run. It was also kept alive by a pass interference penalty on Colorado’s Ken Crawley that negated his interception of a Mannion
pass and gave the Beavers a first down at the 34-yard line. Three runs advanced the ball to the 24, where Mannion lofted a scoring pass to Caleb Smith. Smith out-jumped two Buffaloes defenders to make the catch before tumbling into the end zone. Colorado cut the deficit to 30-24 on Will Oliver’s 44yard field goal with 10:52 left to play but Mannion responded by leading another scoring drive that Ward finished off with his second scoring run. The Buffaloes weren’t through, though. They pulled within five with three minutes left on Liufau’s 17-yard scoring pass to McCulloch. Down 14-0 early, Colorado fought back to take a 21-20 halftime lead when Tony Jones bulled his way into the end zone from a yard out with 43 seconds left in the second quarter. Liufau, whose interception midway through the first quarter led to a Beavers’ touchdown, got the Buffaloes back into the game with a 31yard scoring pass to McCulloch. The lanky wide receiver shook off a tackle by safety Justin Strong at the 20 and bolted untouched down the left sideline for the score

pulling the Buffaloes to 14-7. Michael Adkins II added a 12-yard scoring run for Colorado around a pair of field goals by Romaine. The Beavers got a pair of 4-yard touchdown runs to go up early, the first by Ward. The other, by Woods, came on the heels of linebacker D.J. Alexander’s interception of Liufau and 25-yard return to Colorado’s 8. Portland State 23, UC Davis 14: Kieran McDonagh ran for two touchdowns and Jonathan Gonzales kicked three field goals as Portland State beat UC Davis. McDonagh finished with 19-of-37 for 194 yards passing for the Vikings (2-3, 1-0 Big Sky). Nate Tago ran for 106 yards on 26 carries. Portland State led 17-0 at the break on McDonagh’s two scores and a field goal by Gonzales. The Vikings defense held UC Davis to just 70 yards in the first half. The Aggies (1-4, 0-2) rallied in the third quarter with a pair of strikes by QB London Lacy — to Keelan Doss and Derek Baljeu — to tighten the score to 17-14. But the Vikings opened the gap again on two more Gonzales field goals in the fourth to seal the win.
LOS ANGELES — Jaelen Strong caught a 46-yard touchdown pass from Mike Bercovici as time expired, and Arizona State scored three TDs in the final 3:53 to shock No. 16 Southern California 38-34 on Saturday night. Bercovici capped his 510yard passing performance with his third TD pass to Strong, who slipped in front of USC’s Hayes Pullard at the goal line and pulled in the Hail Mary throw. Arizona State’s bench stormed the field to celebrate the first win at the Coliseum since 1999 for the Sun Devils (4-1, 2-1 Pac-12). Cody Kessler passed for 273 yards for the Trojans (32, 2-1), who led 34-25 with 3 minutes to play. USC recovered two onside kicks and got a 53-yard TD run by Buck Allen in the final minutes, but the Trojans’ pass defense still couldn’t stop Bercovici in his second start. Utah 30, No. 8 UCLA 28: Andy Phillips kicked a 29-yard field goal with 34 seconds left, and Ka’imi Fairbairn missed two fieldgoal attempts with no time on the clock as Utah stunned No. 8 UCLA. Brett Hundley passed for 269 yards and two touchdowns for the Bruins (4-1, 1-1 Pac-12), who became the fourth team in the Top 10 to lose Saturday, and the fifth to fall this weekend. Utah (4-1, 1-1) drove 63 yards in 10 plays for the goahead kick, taking 4:16 off the clock behind the rushing of Kendal Thompson and Devontae Booker to set up the kick by Phillips, the one-time member of the U.S. Ski Team. Hundley drove the Bruins to the Utah 37, but Fairbairn missed a 50-yard field goal on an untimed down after Eric Rowe was penalized for
running into Fairbairn on a failed 55-yard attempt as time expired. No. 9 Notre Dame 17, No. 14 Stanford 14: Everett Golson threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Ben Koyack in the corner of the end zone with 61 seconds left as No. 9 Notre Dame overcame two turnovers and two bungled snaps on field goal attempts on a cold, rainy day. Koyack was alone in the corner and Golson almost didn’t find him in time. But Koyack caught the pass as he fell out of bounds and safety Jordan Richards dove to try to break it up on Notre Dame’s last chance on fourth-and-11. The Fighting Irish improved to 5-0 for just the third time since Lou Holtz left in 1996. The Cardinal (32) have two losses this early in the season for the first time since 2008. California 60, Washington State 59: Jared Goff threw for 527 yards and five touchdowns as California held on to beat Washington State in a game in which WSU quarterback Connor Halliday broke the NCAA passing record. Washington State kicker Quentin Breshears attempted a 19-yard field goal with 19 seconds remaining and was wide right, preserving the win for California (4-1, 2-1 Pac-12), which is enjoying its best start since 2008. Halliday threw for 734 yards and six touchdowns for Washington State (2-4, 1-2). He broke the record of 716 yards by Houston’s David Klingler in 1990. Washington State has the nation’s No. 1 passing attack, while Cal’s is No. 8. The teams combined for 1,400 yards of offense. Goff’s 51-yard touchdown pass to Trevor Davis with 3:18 left in the game provided the winning points.
Western Oregon falls in Alabama THE WORLD Western Oregon lost to North Alabama 30-10 in a football game at Florence, Ala., on Saturday. The Lions held Western Oregon to 183 yards of total offense, including minus 23 on the ground. Coquille graduate Joe Harris had eight rushes for 15 yards and five catches for 30 yards in the loss. Jesse Correa provided one highlight for the Wolves when he kicked a 50-yard field goal on the final play of the first half. Linfield 41, Pacific Lutheran 14: The Wildcats, ranked No. 5 in NCAA Division III, beat their unbeaten rivals to spoil the 14th-ranked Lutes’ homecoming. Sam Riddle passed for 239
yards and four touchdowns for Linfield (3-0), which also limited Pacific Lutheran (2-1) to 202 total yards in the Northwest Conference opener for the two teams. Willamette 38, George Fox 6: The Bearcats beat the Bruins in their Northwest Conference opener at Salem on Friday. Willamette improved to 3-0 while George Fox, fielding a team for the first time since 1968, fell to 0-3. Ryan Foote scored on a 54-yard reception and a 57yard run for Willamette. Pacific 29, Whitworth 15: The Boxers got a combined 260 rushing yards by Bobby Ladiges and Kamana Pimentel to open Northwest Conference play with the win on homecoming. Pacific got its first win of the season, while Whitworth
fell to 3-2 overall and 1-1 in league play. Puget Sound 38, Lewis & Clark 7: Michael Hawkins scored a first-quarter touchdown for Lewis & Clark, but Puget Sound pulled away from the Pioneers in the final three quarters for the Northwest Conference win. Lewis & Clark lost its fourth straight road game and finally plays its home opener this coming Saturday against Pacific Lutheran. Eastern Oregon 47, College of Idaho 7: The Mountaineers got their third straight win and improved to 4-1 overall and 3-1 in the Frontier Conference. Zach Bartlow passed for 223 yards and four touchdowns in the win and Jace Billingsley tied the school record for career receptions, pulling in five passes.
Laker rally comes up short THE WORLD The Southwestern Oregon Community College women’s soccer team played perhaps its best half of the season Saturday, but wasn’t quite able to make up an early 3-0 deficit to visiting Clark, falling 4-3. Sadie Bailey had a pair of goals and an assist for the Lakers and Mikena Shay had a goal and an assist. “We had a great game,” said SWOCC coach Allan Ledesma. “I am very proud of everybody on the team and

just happy with the things they’ve done on the field.” SWOCC fell to 1-7-2 heading into a home match at 2 p.m. on Wednesday against Clackamas, the last of seven consecutive home matches for the Lakers, who then won’t be home again until facing Lane on Nov. 1. Clark improved to 4-3-3.
MEN’S SOCCER League-leading Clark blanked the Lakers 6-0 on Saturday, scoring three goals in each half. SWOCC goalie Juan Gonzales had 14 saves in the losing effort. Clark improved to 5-0-3 while the Lakers fell to 0-90.
SWOCC hosts Suth Puget Sound at noon on Saturday.
CROSS COUNTRY The Lakers competed Saturday in extreme heat in the 40th Charles Bowles Invitational at Salem. Alexis Crelling had a strong effort in the women’s race with her time of 21:58. Ramey Gerke finished in 23:31, while Melissa Ortiz ran 23:59 and Carleen Fall 24:59. The Lakers only had two men compete while others took the weekend off to heal from injuries. Brad Larsen finished the 8,000-meter race in 31:38 while Amani Rogers -Muller had a time of 39:58 in his first 5-mile race.
Timbers earn win at San Jose SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Rodney Wallace scored twice in 3 minutes in the Portland Timbers’ 2-1 comeback victory over the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday night. Liam Ridgewell sent a high-speed header deflecting unintentionally off Wallace’s head and looping past a helpless Jon Busch in the 74th minute for the go-
ahead goal. Wallace tied it 71st minute with a left-footed blast into the upper-left corner of the net. The Timbers (10-9-12) moved within one point of the Vancouver Whitecaps for the fifth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference. Chris Wondolowski opened the scoring in the 56th minute with his 14th
goal of the season. He forced a diving save from Portland goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts before flicking the rebound in with the outside of his left foot. The loss eliminated the Earthquakes (6-13-11) from playoff contention and extended their winless streak to 11 games. The teams meet again Wednesday in Portland.

Mississippi teams rise in rankings
From Page B1 Cincinnati (3-1) lost three fumbles and failed to convert its seven third-down plays. “If you turn the ball over and don’t make any third downs, you have a chance to have this happen to you,” Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said. Cowboys 20, Texans 17, OT: Dan Bailey kicked a 49yard field goal in overtime after a miss at the end of regulation ended his franchise record streak of made kicks. Bailey’s kick was set up when Tony Romo threw off his back foot and Dez Bryant made a spectacular leaping catch for 37 yards. The host Cowboys (4-1) have won fourth straight for the first time since 2011. The Texans (3-2) rallied behind Arian Foster, who had 157 yards rushing and a tying 1yard score with 41 seconds left in regulation. Bailey’s miss from 53 yards on the final play of regulation ended a franchise record streak of 30 straight made field goals. Browns 29, Titans 28: Brian Hoyer threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Travis Benjamin with 1:09 left, and the Browns rallied from a 25point deficit for the biggest comeback in franchise history and the NFL’s largest comeback by a road team. The Browns (2-2) had never rallied from more than 20 points, and easily topped the comeback on Dec. 4, 1966, when Cleveland trailed the Giants 34-14 and won 49-40, according to STATS. “I did tell them after the game they got to stop doing it,” first-year Cleveland coach Mike Pettine said. “I have an EKG scheduled for tomorrow because my heart can’t take many more of these.” Cleveland snapped a seven-game road skid by scoring 26 unanswered points, 16 in the fourth quarter. The Titans (1-4) had their biggest blown lead since moving to Tennessee in 1997. QB Jake Locker didn’t return after hurting his right thumb in the second quarter. Saints 37, Buccaneers 31, OT: At New Orleans, Khiry Robinson’s tacklebreaking, 18-yard touchdown run in overtime won it. Pierre Thomas caught eight passes out of the backfield for 77 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 35 yards and a score to help New Orleans (2-3) overcome Drew Brees’ three interceptions — and an 11point deficit in the fourth quarter. Brees completed 35 of 57 passes for 371 yards and two touchdowns, but two of his interceptions led directly to Buccaneers touchdowns. His third ended a potential winning drive in the final minute
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS STARKVILLE, Miss. — Mississippi’s Southeastern Conference teams have never been this good and this close. Ole Miss and Mississippi State are tied for third in The A s s o c i a te d Press college football poll after a wild day of unexpected results brought major changes to the Top 25. Just about the only thing that didn’t change this week was No. 1: Florida State is still top-ranked, with 35 firstplace votes. Auburn, the only other team in the top six to win, moved up three spots to No. 2 and received 23 first-place votes. Then came Ole Miss and Mississippi State, in the top five together for the first time after the Rebels beat Alabama and the Bulldogs beat Texas A&M on Saturday. The Rebels haven’t been ranked this high since 1963, when they also were No. 3 and won their last SEC title. The Bulldogs have their best ranking ever. Their previous best was No. 7 in 1981 and their only SEC championship came in 1941. Baylor rounds out the top five and Notre Dame is No. 6. Oregon dropped 10 spots after losing 31-24 at home to Arizona on Thursday night. UCLA dropped 10 spots to No. 18 after losing 30-28 at home to Utah. The Utes moved into the rankings at No. 24.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Travis Benjamin catches a 17-yard touchdown pass as he is defended by Tennessee Titans safety Bernard Pollard in the fourth quarter Sunday. of regulation. Making his second straight start for Tampa Bay (1-4), Mike Glennon was 19 for 32 for 249 yards and two touchdowns. Bills 17, Lions 14: At Detroit, Dan Carpenter hit a 58-yard field goal with 4 seconds remaining. Kyle Orton, making his debut as Bills starter, went 30 of 43 for 308 yards with a 2yard touchdown pass to Chris Gragg as Buffalo (3-2) overcame a 14-0 deficit. It was the eighth game Orton has won in overtime or when trailing in the fourth quarter. Bills coach Doug Marrone said the team filed a complaint to NFL security officials alleging someone shined a laser pointer from the stands at his players during the game. The Lions (3-2) were undone by kicker Alex Henery missing all three field-goal attempts, including a 50-yarder wide left with 21 seconds left. Receiver Calvin Johnson and running back Reggie Bush both injured ankles in the loss. 49ers 22, Chiefs 17: Phil Dawson kicked five field goals, while Frank Gore ran for 107 yards and the host 49ers (3-2) converted a fake punt. On fourth-and-1 from their 29 early in the fourth quarter, a direct snap to Craig Dahl resulted in a 3-yard run up the middle. Dawson kicked a 27-yarder with 8:42 to play for the go-ahead score. Dawson also connected from 55, 52, 35 and 30 yards. The 49ers held off former franchise quarterback Alex Smith and the Chiefs (2-3) twice in the closing moments. Smith threw for 175 yards and two touchdowns. Chargers 31, Jets 0: At San Diego, Philip Rivers threw two touchdown passes to Antonio Gates and rookie running back Branden Oliver’s big day included his first two NFL touchdowns.
The Chargers (4-1) heaped more pain on the Jets (1-4), who lost their fourth straight game and turned to Michael Vick at quarterback. Vick replaced Geno Smith on New York’s first possession of the second half, but wasn’t any more effective in the NFL’s first shutout this season. The Chargers’ last shutout victory was 31-0 against Kansas City on Dec. 12, 2010. The Jets were blanked for the first time since losing 34-0 against San Francisco on Sept. 30, 2012. Panthers 31, Bears 24: Cam Newton threw two touchdown passes to Greg Olsen and the Panthers’ defense forced four turnovers to overcome a 14-point deficit. With the game tied at 24, Carolina’s Antoine Cason stripped Matt Forte of the ball and the Kawaan Short recovered at Chicago’s 23. Six plays later, Newton found Olsen on a slant route for a 6yard touchdown. The Panthers sealed the win when Short sacked Jay Cutler and Charles Johnson recovered a fumble as the Panthers (3-2) snapped a two-game losing streak. Cutler was 28 of 36 for 289 yards with two TDs, but turned over the ball tree times for the visiting Bears (2-3). Eagles 34, Rams 28: At Philadelphia, the Eagles’ defense and special teams each scored. The Eagles (4-1) rebounded from a loss at San Francisco with a strong allaround performance until the Rams came on at the end. Chris Maragos returned a blocked punt for a touchdown, Cedric Thornton recovered a fumble for a score and nearly took another one the distance. But Austin Davis rallied the Rams (1-3) from a 34-7 deficit with three straight scores. The Rams had a
chance to win when they got the ball at their 7 with 1:47 left. Davis threw a 43-yard pass to Quick on first down, but Philadelphia’s defense then held. Colts 20, Ravens 13: At Indianapolis, Andrew Luck threw one touchdown pass and ran for another score and the defense held on late. Luck was 32 of 49 for 312 yards with two interceptions, but scored the winning points on a nifty 13-yard run with 8:56 left. Indianapolis (3-2) has won three straight. Baltimore (3-2) lost for the first time since Week 1. The teams combined for seven turnovers, and Joe Flacco was sacked four times — one more than he had been all season. Giants 30, Falcons 20: First-round draft pick Odell Beckham Jr. made his NFL debut, catching a go-ahead 15-yard touchdown pass from Eli Manning. Fellow rookie Andre Williams scored on a 3-yard run to ignite the second-half rally that saw the host Giants (3-2) come from 10 points down to win their third straight game. Manning threw for two touchdowns and Josh Brown added two late field goals. Matt Ryan threw for 316 yards and a touchdown playing behind a banged-up offensive line, and Atlanta (23) dropped to 0-3 on the road. Steelers 17, Jaguars 9: Brice McCain returned an interception 22 yards for a touchdown. McCain stepped in front of receiver Allen Hurns early in the fourth quarter, intercepted rookie Blake Bortles’ wobbly sideline pass and went untouched the other way. It was just what the visiting Steelers (3-2) needed to gain a little breathing room. The Jaguars (0-5) had dropped their past five games by double digits.
BASEBALL From Page B1 Trout staked his team to a firstinning lead, but Angels starter C.J. Wilson quickly got into trouble. He loaded the bases for Gordon, whose double made it 3-1. Sensing the game already slipping away, Scioscia turned in vain to his bullpen. The Royals kept the pressure on, and even plodding designated hitter Billy Butler got in on the act, stealing second base to another roar. It was his fifth career steal and first in two years, but it typified the way the Royals have been winning this postseason. Dazzling pitching, daring baserunning and some dogged determination. By the sixth inning, the Angels — their high-priced offense having fizzled and pitching having failed them — were slumped over the railing of their dugout. They spent the rest of the night bundled up against the October chill, periods of rain making their night miserable. But hardly putting a damper on thousands of Royals fans. “We just beat the Angels. We played a perfect series. We’re running on a high,” Butler said. “We’re playing aggressive. We’ve got nothing to lose.” Orioles 2, Tigers 1: Nelson Cruz sliced a two-run homer for his latest big postseason hit, and the Baltimore Orioles swept aside Detroit’s Cy Young Award winners to hold off the Tigers 2-1 Sunday and reach the AL Championship Series for the first time since 1997. Bud Norris outpitched David Price in Game 3 of the AL Division Series. The Tigers scored in the ninth and put the tying run on second with no outs, but Orioles closer Zach Britton escaped the jam and lifted Buck Showalter into his first ALCS in 16 seasons as a big
SEC fines schools after fans rush the field BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Southeastern Conference has fined Mississippi and Kentucky after their fans stormed the field to celebrate victories. The SEC fined Ole Miss $50,000 on Sunday because the school also was cited for similar violations in 2012 and 2013. Rebels fans rushed the field after a 23-17 victory over Alabama on Saturday. Kentucky drew a $25,000 penalty for the celebration of a 45-38 upset of South Carolina. Kentucky also was penalized in 2006 and 2007, but drew a smaller fine because its last offense was more than three years ago. SEC policy restricts access to areas of competition to coaches, athletes, officials support personnel and others with proper credentials.
Troy coach will step down after the season TROY, Ala. — Longtime Troy coach Larry Blakeney is retiring after the season. Troy announced the decision Sunday night with the Trojans off to their first 0-5 start since the 1982 season. The 67-year-old Blakeney is in his 24th season with the Trojans, the second longest tenure among active coaches behind Virginia Tech’s Frank Beamer. He’s a two-time Sun Belt Conference coach of the year who led the Trojans to at least a share of five consecutive league titles. Troy has gone 14-27 since that streak ended in 2010.

NASCAR Nationwide Series league manager. Cruz’s homer was the 16th of his postseason career, including eight against the Tigers.

SATURDAY Giants 2, Nationals 1: Brandon Belt homered off Tanner Roark in the 18th inning, lifting San Francisco Giants to its 10th consecutive postseason victory, edging Washington for a 2-0 lead in the NL Division Series. It tied the mark for most innings in a postseason game and set a time record at 6 hours, 23 minutes, Down to their final out in the ninth, the wild-card Giants tied it on Pablo Sandoval’s RBI double, then saw Nationals manager Matt Williams and second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera
ejected in the 10th. Yusmeiro Petit entered in the 12th and threw six scoreless innings, allowing one hit and striking out seven, to earn the win. Hunter Strickland got the save. Game 3 is today in San Francisco. Dodgers 3, Cardinals 2: Matt Kemp hit a go-ahead home run leading off the eighth inning, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers over the St. Louis Cardinals and evening their NL Division Series at a game apiece. Kemp practically skipped down the first base line, appearing to coax the ball fair as it sailed inside the foul pole and into the lower left field seats while the crowd of 54,599 erupted in cheers. No one looked happier greeting Kemp in the dugout than J.P. Howell, who had served up a tying, two-run homer to Matt Carpenter in the top of the inning after relieving Zack Greinke. Game 3 is tonight in St. Louis, with John Lackey starting for the Cardinals against Hyun-Jin Ryu.

The Americans turned this game quickly into a laugher, jumping out to a 13-point lead in the game’s first 41⁄2 minutes. Spain could only get within seven the rest of the way.

According to his representatives at Octagon, Phelps entered an in-patient program that will keep him from competing at least through mid-November, though there’s no indication he plans to give up swimming. The 29-year-old Phelps was arrested early Tuesday and charged with drunken driving in his native Baltimore. Police said he failed a series of field sobriety tests and had a blood-alcohol content of 0.14 percent, well above the legal limit of 0.08.

There will be a charge of $30 each for paper copies. Dated this 1st day of October 2014. Southern Coos Health District By Order of Charles Johnston, Chief Executive Officer PUBLISHED: The World - October 06, 2014 (ID-20261460) Many people are wondering why they received this notice from the Coos County Planning Department that says the County has determined that adoption of one or more of these amendments may affect the permissible uses of your property and other properties in the affected zone(s) which may result in a change to the value of your property. This is a required statement pursuant to Measure 56. In 1998, Oregon voters passed a law known as Ballot Measure 56. It requires that local governments mail notices to landowners when a change in land-use laws might limit uses of property. The law requires certain language to be used in the notices but that wording doesn’t describe the likely effects from the change in land-use laws. Receiving this notice does not mean the changes affect your property or property value. The changes proposed are not authorizing any type of development but are streamlining processes, addressing readability and updating outdated language. If you have questions about property values and how they are calculated you should contact the Coos County Assessor’s staff.

Changes are shown with strike through for language being removed and bold for being added. A lot of the changes are formatting and will not change any of the uses. The changes will be posted on the webpage under pending application and then click the file number to find the drafts. File numbers AM-14-10 and AM-14-11.
MEASURE 56 NOTICE OF COOS COUNTY PUBLIC LAND USE HEARINGS THIS IS TO NOTIFY YOU THAT COOS COUNTY HAS PROPOSED A LAND USE THAT MAY AFFECT THE PERMISSIBLE USES OF YOUR PROPERTY AND OTHER PROPERTIES*** Notice is hereby given that the Coos County Planning Commission will conduct a public hearing on October 2, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. to review all of the legislative text changes referenced in this notice. The Board of Commissioners (BOC) will conduct public hearings regarding the following legislative amendments to the Coos County Zoning and Land Development Ordinance on October 16, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. for File No. AM-14-10 and 10:30 for File No. AM-14-11. The final draft will be available seven days prior to the Planning Commission hearing. Any requested or suggested changes from the Planning Commission will be forwarded to the Board of Commissioners. This is a summary of the changes as follows; however, the full documents will be available on the website in draft form. Again the draft is subject to minor changes until seven days prior to the Planning Commission hearing. File No. AM-14-10 Chapter I General § 1.1.900 Statement about required downzoning has been removed. This statement no longer applies to current planning. § 1.1.975 Vested Rights has been moved to Chapter 5. Article 1.2 Planning Commission has been added to the ordinance. This language covers the purpose of the planning commission, term of appointments, removal and quorums (moved from § 1.3.985). Article 1.3 Enforcement contains a new violation procedure found in § 1.3.225.
§ 1.3.800 updates the fine amount to be consistent with state law. § 1.3.900 updates the language regarding fees. § 1.3.950 has been moved from § 3.2.600 with no language change. § 1.3.985 Planning Commission Quorum has moved to Article 1.2. Article 1.4 has been revised to modify secretarial duties, posting and publishing requirements and disagreements. Chapter II, § 2.1.200 Definitions Definitions are proposed for clarification. Chapter III has been revised to include the two major estuaries and all of their requirements. Article 3.1 General Information provides for general information pertaining to zoning districts maps, amendments of maps, interpretation of zoning boundaries, coastal shoreland boundaries, errors in the zoning, prohibited uses and supplemental provisions. The language changes are found in § 3.1.100 to include digitized maps and § 3.1.250 defines costal shoreland boundary. Article 3.2 is the Coos Bay Estuary Management Plan (CBEMP) zoning, activities/uses and development standards. The only changes to this article are the addition of road standards and moving the policies from Appendix 3 to follow the CBEMP zoning allowing for the reader to find the applicable policies. Article 3.3 is the Coquille River Estuary Management Plan (CREMP) zoning, activities/uses and development standards. These provisions were split between Article 4.1, 4.2, 4.4, 4.8 and 4.9 and have been consolidated into one area for easy use. The policies were moved from Appendix 2 to follow the CREMP zoning allowing for the reader to find the applicable policies. The only other change was to correct structural shoreland stabilization as it made an incorrect reference. Chapter IV Balance of County Zones, Overlays & Special Consideration. This chapter has been reformatted to remove the tables and consolidate Article 4.1, 4.2, 4.4, 4.8 and 4.9 and portions of supplemental provisions that were found in Chapter III. This allows for all provisions that apply to a zone to be found in one area. A table has been created at the beginning of the chapter listing out all the Zoning, Special Development Considerations, and Overlay Zones. Once adopted this table will serve as a table of contents for the Chapter and once adopted will have hyperlinks to the page for easy access. § 4.1.100 has been modified to adopt the digitized maps but keep the Mylar maps as the official historical
documents. § 4.1.110 and § 4.1.120 have been modified to include the digital maps and account for interpretations using the original Mylar maps. § 4.1.130 Interpretation of Coastal Shoreland Boundary has an added reference to Goal 17 and defines the decision process used. § 4.1.140 has some updates to the section references. § 4.1.150 has been removed due to the digitizing of the maps and updated mapping procedures. § 4.1.160 Special Development Consideration and Overlays language has been updated to account for the new Article 4.11 and remove the reference to the estuary plans which have been incorporated into Chapter III. § 4.1.170 removes the reference to § 3.3.100. Articles 4.2 through 4.8 have been reformatted to remove the tables. The other changes are as follows: Updated language for hardship dwellings; Allowances for guest house in certain zones; Updates to Mobile Home Parks, RV Parks and Campgrounds; Allowances for vacation rentals in certain zones; Update to the Riparian e x c e p tion to include who can certify a hazard tree; Allowance for Floating Homes in Rural Residential properties that abut a lake; Addition of regulations for Circus/Carnivals; Moving recreational vehicle language from Chapter III to be placed in the applicable zoning districts; Adding language for shoreland structural stabilization requirements bring policy 5.11 from Appendix I into the language; Updates to language for high intensity use in a recreational zone; Allowance for RV Pads in the recreational zone; Removal of Dog Kennels in the recreational zone; Definition of Mixed Use added to forest zone; Allowance for solar energy systems; Corrections to statutory references; Addition of definition of a road for clarification under template dwelling criteria; Addition of clarification language for Farm Stands in the Exclusive Farm Use; Removal of references to the Coquille River Estuary Management Plan which are now located in Chapter III; Provisions for creating wetlands in the Exclusive Farm Use zone; and Updates to land divisions in the
Exclusive Farm Use zone. Updates to riparian development standards to include measurement calculations. Updates to provide an exception for pre-existing lots and parcels. Updates to farm and forest to include fire stations as a permitted use. Article 4.11 Covers the Special Development Considerations and Overlays The references to the Estuary Plans have been incorporated in the estuary sections. The reference to special considerations maps has been removed because they no longer exist. Staff uses the plan maps. The table format has been removed and policies that pertain to the special considerations have been taken from Appendix I to make it easier for the reader to find the information. The format lists out the special development consideration, the inventory map, the legend from the map and then the text from the Appendix that applies to that special consideration. The floodplain, Bandon Airport, Lakeside Airport and Powers Airport have no text changes but have been reformatted to fit. §4.11.400 through §4.11.460 are the new sections to cover the Southwest Oregon Regional Airport (AKA: North Bend Municipal Airport). This airport language was omitted from the ordinance and plan before. Chapter VI - Updates to property line adjustments. The language was updated to include notifications to lien holders of record and procedures on how to record a deed. Chapter VII - Updates to remove reference to review standard 15 and replace it with the language that was in review standard 15. Minor changes to the table 7.2b regarding spacing and the Roadmaster’s discretion regarding minimum road standards. This will now be a noticeable decision. File No. AM-14-11 Chapter V - Administration § 5.0.150 Application requirements have been changed to require either two paper copies or one paper copy and one electronic copy. § 5.0.175 Application made by transportation agencies, utilities or entities. This section was moved from § 5.2 and has been expanded to include utilities and entities. The section includes an explanation of how it applies to current and future applications. § 5.0.200 Application Completeness has been changed to conform to state law. § 5.0.250 timetable for final decisions has removed the last paragraph to be consistent with state law. § 5.0.600 has been expanded to
include the Board’s ability to hire a hearing officer. § 5.0.700 was moved to Article 5.2. Article 5.1 was moved from Article 1.2 to have all procedures in the same chapter. § 5.2.250 was moved to Article 5.0. § 5.2.500 removes the table reference. § 5.2.600 was corrected to be in compliance with state law and to clarify the language. § 5.3.200 Variances subsection 5 was added to clarify applicability of variance standards. § 5.3.360 was included to address expiration and extension of variances. Article 5.4 Vested Right was moved from Chapter I with no change to the language. Article 5.5 Temporary Permits § 5.5.100 Temporary uses was moved from Chapter III and clarified. § 5.5.200 Temporary events have been added. § 5.5.300 Temporary Structures, Activities or Uses has been added. Article 5.6 Nonconforming uses This was updated to be in compliance with state law. Article 5.7 Public Hearing Procedures - Modifications to presentations of testimony and representatives. Article 5.8 Appeal Requirements Modification to procedures. Article 5.9 Compliance Determinations - This section is new and has been created for reviews that have standards that may be appealed. This article has been divided into two sections: (1) balance of County compliance determination; (2) Estuary compliance determinations. Article 5.10 Zoning compliance letters. This was moved from Chapter III with some minor modification to account for the sanitation and what type of structures or structural remodels that do not require a zoning compliance letter. The County has determined that adoption of one or more of these amendments may affect the permissible uses of your property and other properties in the affected zone(s), and may change the value of your property. All hearings will be conducted in the Large Conference Room of the Owen Building, 201 N. Adams St., Coquille, Oregon. Copies of these proposed amendments are available for inspection at the Coos County Courthouse Annex located at 225 N. Adams, Coquille, Oregon. Criteria for legislative amendments can be found at Article 1.2 of the CCZLDO. A copy of the Staff Report including the proposed amendment text will be available for review at the Planning Department at
least seven (7) days prior to the scheduled Planning Commission hearing. Copies can be obtained for a fee of $.50 per page, viewed online @ http://www.co.coos.or.us/Departme nts/Planning/PendingApplications.a spx (click on the file number) or viewed at the Planning Department at any time during regular business hours 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. These hearings are open to the public and testimony, evidence, or comments may be submitted either orally or in writing.
