Adios, downtown Wi-Fi City says connectivity problems, disruptions not worth it

BY DEVAN PATEL The World

By Lou Sennick, The World

The Visitor Information Center in downtown Coos Bay is one of six access points for the city’s Wi-Fi connections. The city is shutting down the system because it has connection and other problems that would cost too much to upgrade.

COOS BAY — After years of struggling to provide the downtown area with Internet access, the Coos Bay City Council last week unanimously voted to scrap its Wi-Fi system.

With a high level of interference from other devices disrupting coverage and the current equipment unable to handle the bandwidth demands of Internet users, the council decided it

would not be economically efficient to continue operating the system at a cost of $4,700 per year if the same problems would still persist.

As part of the city’s inquiry into the connectivity problems, the city underwent two analyses on the current network infrastructure and solicited recommendations from ORCA Communications, Frontier and Comspan, Coos Bay Finance Director Susanne Baker said.

Outside of pockets around the six

access points — at Fire Station No. 1, City Hall, Sause Bros., the Visitor Information Center, the Hub Building and the BNT Building — the analyses showed little to no connectivity.

The service began in 2006 with the intent of attracting more foot traffic into the downtown area.

Community shows support for BLM’s Estella Morgan

Commissioners step in

BY KURTIS HAIR The World

COOS BAY — The outpouring of love and grief has been tremendous after a cherished Coos Bay woman who had done much for her community died in a tragic accident last week.

At about 11 a.m. Nov. 4, 55-yearold Estella Morgan lost her life when a tree that had just been cut down fell on the vehicle she was driving.

Morgan, an employee of the Bureau of Land Management, was conducting field work in the Blue Ridge area of Coos Bay. News of the tragic accident shocked the community of Coos Bay. Morgan was an important person to many people.

“She was such a huge part of my life for 55 years,” said Merton Brown, Morgan’s older brother. “It’s very painful. It’s women like her that make the world go around.”

Morgan was born Sept. 10, 1959 in Coos Bay, and was the secondyoungest of six. She grew up in Eastside and quickly fell in love with the outdoors.

“We would go on Sunday drives every weekend,” Brown said. “We would just go all over the county and in the woods. Estella, you know, I guess that’s why she got into forestry.”

In 1981, Morgan married Randy Jameson, and they moved to Clinton, Okla., where they had a child, Lindsey.

They moved back to Oregon a year later to make a life on the coast.

Morgan lost her husband in a commercial fishing accident in Alaska in 1984. A year Estella Morgan later, she met Morgan.

Lance The two married in 1986 and had twin daughters, Adrienne and Amber.

Morgan got her associate degree in forestry at Southwestern Oregon Community College and became an employee of BLM, working for the agency for 30 years.

appropriately fix the problem came to a head.

The area has long been a popular area for summer homes and recreational uses by not only residents but people from nearby counties. As the relatively shallow lake matures, it continues to fill in and become shallower with non-native weeds that rot and clog the lake, and silt that moves down the streams from timber lands and ranches nearby. There has also been widespread concern that the cabins around the lake — many of which are older — may have inadequate septic systems that potentially leak phosphates and cause the algae to grow.

Just as figuring out the issues surrounding the lakes’ toxicity isn’t exactly cut and dry, getting the issue on the ballot hasn’t been simple either. It can be done SEE LAKESIDE | A8

COQUILLE — The Coos County commissioners have agreed to start the process to pass a motion that would put the Water Lakes Tenmile Improvement District on the May ballot.

The decision came at the county commission meeting last Tuesday after a lengthy discussion about how to proceed with the Tenmile Lakes blue-green algae infestation problem. Until now, the commissioners have been reluctant to move forward on the issue because residents weren’t united in how to solve the problem.

One group has been focused more on bringing failed septic systems up to code, while the other wants to look at the septic issue along with weed and other

sedimentation causes. The latter is proposing the formation of the district.

“Both sides have good logic but need to get together and figure out what they’re going to do,” said Commissioner John Sweet.

“We said we’ll pass the motion to start the process, but you all need to decide just what you want done and think in terms of, ‘Are we going to do a shotgun approach or do we concentrate our efforts on one problem?’”

The item was urgent because if the commissioners hadn’t acted in one way or another by Nov. 7, it would have been delayed until May 2016.

For years there has been debate as to how to best clean up the water but the squabbling peaked last spring when discord between the area’s residents over what exactly causes the bluegreen algae outbreaks and how to

Opinion theworldlink.com/news/opinion

Living in the state of SWAT Oftentimes I ask, “Is this still America?” when I read such horrifying accounts as this one from Alecia Phonesavanh, a mother in Cornelia, Ga., whose temporary residence was invaded by a SWAT team: “It’s been over five months since the night a SWAT team broke into the house in which we were staying ... We were staying with relatives and my whole family was sleeping in one room. My husband and I, our three daughters and our baby (nicknamed ‘Baby Bou Bou’) in his crib.

“Dressed like soldiers, they broke down the door. The SWAT officers tossed a flashbang grenade into the room.It landed in Baby Bou Bou’s crib, blowing a hole in his face and chest that took months to heal and covering his entire body with scars” (“‘It breaks my heart’: How a SWAT team upended my baby’s life — and got away with it,” Phonesavanh, salon.com, Oct. 10).

But the Cato Institute’s Tim Lynch, a penetrating expert on civil liberties, assures us that finding a SWAT team in a place as relatively small as Georgia’s Habersham County is not an anomaly: “An alarming number of civilian police departments have created paramilitary units, or SWAT teams. They can (also) be found in small town departments these days — even places where there is little violent crime” (Cato’s Letter, Fall 2014, Vol. 12, No. 4).

NAT Constitutional lawyer HENTOFF John Whitehead, founder of civil liberties watchdog Columnist The Rutherford Institute, argues on this mother’s behalf: “Already they have racked up more than $900,000 in medical bills. Incredibly, government officials refused to cover the family’s medical expenses” (“Shielded From Justice: The High Cost of Living in a Police State,” Whitehead, rutherford.org, Oct. 14).

Not all families brutalized by SWAT teams are left to pay the monetary expenses, but, as Whitehead reminds us, there can never be any amount of reparation sufficient to make up for the lives lost or shattered.

Moreover, “for those who do get ‘paid back,’ at least in monetary terms for their heartache and loss, it’s the taxpayers who are footing the bill to the tune of millions of dollars.Incredibly,these cases hardly impact the police department’s budget.”

Whitehead cites journalist Aviva Shen, who explains in a column for ThinkProgress.org how police departments protect their officers: “Individual officers are rarely held accountable for their abuses, either by the police department or in court ...

And so the bill for taxpayers keeps growing” (“Why Taxpayers Will Get Stuck With the Bill for the Ferguson Lawsuit,” Shen, thinkprogress.org, Aug. 31).

Whitehead further cites a case from the NYU study “in which three Denver police officers chased and then beat a 16-year-old boy, stomping ‘on the boy’s back while using a fence for leverage, breaking his ribs and causing him to suffer kidney damage and a lacerated liver.’ The cost to Denver taxpayers to settle the lawsuit: $855,000. The amount the officers contributed: 0.”

Whitehead brings us to Atlanta, not far from where Baby Bou Bou was nearly killed by police: “Kathryn Johnston, 92 years old, was shot and killed during a SWAT team raid that went awry. Attempting to cover their backs, the officers falsely claimed Johnston’s home was the site of a cocaine sale and went so far as to plant marijuana in the house to support their claim. The cost to Atlanta taxpayers to settle the lawsuit: $4.9 million. The amount the officers contributed: 0.”

Whitehead goes on to cite a Human Rights Watch report on police brutality: “The excessive use of force by police officers ... persists because overwhelming barriers to accountability makes it possible for officers who commit human rights violations to escape due punishment and often to repeat their offenses ...

“Those who claim that each high-profile case of abuse by a ‘rogue’ officer is an aberration are missing the point: problem officers frequently persist because the accountability systems are so seriously flawed.” (“Shielded From Justice: Police Brutality and Accountability in the United States,” Human Rights Watch, hrw.org).

As a taxpayer, or, more to the point, as a human being,do you feel an urge to do something to ultimately ban the barbarous police treatment of other citizens and human beings across the land?

Whitehead references his recent book, “A Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State,” when he offers an obvious solution: “If any hope for accountability is to be realized, it must begin, as always, at the local level, with local police departments and governing bodies, where the average citizen can still, with sufficient reinforcements, make his voice heard.”

That means you and I must work to prevent future police assaults on more Baby Bou Bous. Let us keep after our mayors, city councils and police commissioners. Remind them to make officers liable for their actions, just as Human Rights Watch admonished.

I keep repeating: Is this still America?

And if not, who on earth are we?

Nat Hentoff is a nationally renowned authority on the First Amendment and the Bill of Rights.

Letters to the Editor Fear of sactuaries unfounded I see that another governmental body has piled on to the National Marine Sanctuary issue (Council Votes to Oppose Sanctuary, Oct. 23). The Bandon City Council has taken its cue from the ports of Bandon and Port Orford, and like them has done so without wider public input. The opposition votes have cascaded like dominoes, yet there hasn’t been even one thoughtful debate on the entire Oregon coast.It’s not surprising that opponents are afraid of a balanced forum. So much of what is said against the NMS is not fact-based.

For example, a sanctuary is not all about fisheries. It does not regulate them. Period. The goals it would promote are much larger: research, education (at the level of local schools as well as generally), recreation, tourism and other sustainable ocean uses. The health of our oceans is critical if we are to survive what climate change is throwing at us. Let’s use all of the protections available.

The current marine reserve program is a start, but it is projected to cover only 9 percent of state waters. State, not federal.

Can these tiny islands of protection resuscitate fragile fisheries?

More and larger reserves are needed.

I agree that a National Marine Sanctuary off our coast should be “not a partisan issue, but a common sense issue.” And the common sense response to threat is increased protection, not denial.

Will a sanctuary cause a loss of local control? In fact, it would enhance opportunity for local control, through an area-wide advisory council formed to advance goals that the community itself defines. A number of established sanctuaries have been so popular that communities have actively petitioned and succeeded in expanding them.

Are those in favor of a sanctuary all from somewhere else? Not so. In March of this year, I wrote a letter to the governor that sup-

ported at least discussing the nomination of a National Marine Sanctuary off Cape Blanco. In just a couple of days, and without a lot of effort,I got 35 signatures in Port Orford. That’s a decent proportion of eligible voters here. Of course people from all over the state are interested, too. Coast residents may be closest, but we don’t own the oceans. We’re not the only stakeholders when it comes to ocean health and prosperity.

Cell towers can be harmful On Oct. 13, the Bandon School District hosted a presentation regarding the safety of the cell tower located at the school.

Andrew H. Thatcher was brought in from Tacoma, Wash., to assure everyone that the cell/wifi tower is completely safe.

The bulk of his data is based on the industries own studies that conclude you must have high enough radio frequency levels that would produce heating or thermal effects to cause damage to tissue or cells. This idea was what the FCC and FDA used to establish the safety guidelines prior to 1996, when the Federal Communications Act of 1996 was signed in to law.

David Carpenter M.D., profesenvironmental health sor, sciences, and director, Institute for Health and Environment, school of public health, University of Albany, states, “Unfortunately, all exposure standards are based on the false assumptions that there are no hazardous effects at intensities that do not cause tissue heating.” (bioinitiative.org) Paul J. Rosch M.D., clinical professor of medicine and psychiatry, New York Medical College, states, “Numerous research reports have confirmed that nonthermal fields from cell phones, tower transmitters, power lines and other man-made sources can significantly affect various tissues and physiologic functions. Dr. Hanry Loci, research professor,

department of bioengineering, University of Washington, states, “There have been about 200 studies on the biological effects of cell phone radiation. When you look at the nonindustry sponsored research, about three of four papers show an effect. Then if you look at the industry-funded research, it’s almost the opposite, only one out of every four papers show an effect.

The problem, he adds, “is that there is no funding available in the U.S. that isn’t attached to the industry.”

Thatcher asserted that the Bioinititative report was not correct, even though it is based on over 2,000 peer reviewed research studies. I asked him, if the Bioinitiative report was not correct, why would the International Association of Firefighters stop all cell tower installations at fire stations that based their decision on that report? I never got a definitive answer to my question.

What’s happening to our Grange?

Have you heard the Coos Grange Supply board of directors has adopted a plan of complete liquidation and sale of the Coos Grange Supply. They did not ask anyone how they feel about loosing our grange supply store that we have been members of for 20 years.

We like that we don’t have to go out of town to get are feed and supplies, or meds for our animals; chickens to have our eggs and lumber post and fencing. Also there are lots of people who are looking forward to retirement, who have been there for years helping us with what we need. So the board wants to cut off any retirement and say tough for you.

If you get a vote, please say no to the sale of the our Coos Grange Supply, and start thinking about getting a new board of directors.

All six of them need to retire.

Stand up Coos Bay and say no more boards that are going to take away where we shop, and never even ask the rest of us. Just do it sneaky behind our backs, then tell us we can vote on what they have already done and planned. My husband and I are not going to take it as planned for us. We vote no — no sale.

Progressives don’t really need D.C. The Republican takeover of the Senate majority really shouldn’t matter much to progressives.Even when Democrats have the majority, precious little gets done in a body that lets a minority of members obstruct.

But never mind. A modern, future-oriented agenda has been advancing on the state level — as progressive governors rush into the vacuum of inaction left by Washington. And its supporters are not just Democrats but also independents and Republicans who respect mainstream science and regard the working poor as something more than cheap labor.

Thus, we see victories for universal health coverage, higher minimum wages, the fight against global warming, slowing the war on drugs, and gay marriage. And with little thanks to Capitol Hill.

Massachusetts has run a universal health care system for about eight years.Its plan was based on a conservative blueprint pushed through by a Republican governor, but when it surfaced as the model for the Affordable Care Act, the right disowned it.

Two important points: Massachusetts showed it could guarantee coverage while main-

taining one of the nation’s strongest economies.

And even without Obamacare, other states would have followed its example.

FROMA Obamacare’s biggest flaw is HARROP its complexity, Columnist largely the result of expensive giveaways to the medical industry. But now state, another progressive Vermont, is seeking a waiver to address that flaw with a modified single-payer plan. If Vermont’s approach cuts the state’s medical spending by 25 percent without hurting quality of care as a Harvard study predicts, other states will do likewise.

Cap and trade reduces emissions of planet-warming gases by creating a market for them. It was another conservative idea, but when Barack Obama’s Environmental Protection Agency proposed such a system, the Republican Congress turned on it.

California shrugged and created its own. At least 10 states have

since adopted their own cap-andtrade programs.

Sacramento has long been the capital of American environmental policy. In 2004, California set fuel economy standards higher than Washington’s. Soon other states embraced them, and before you knew it,40 percent of the U.S. car market was under the California rules.

That left automakers with two choices: Build all cars to the tighter specifications or challenge California’s right to set them.

They decided to challenge, running to the George W. Bush administration for relief, which they got.

But in 2008, California and 14 other states successfully sued the EPA for turning down California’s request to set stricter emissions.

Now when Washington talks about changing the fuel economy standards, the automakers want California at the table.

Hostility toward modern science and unwillingness to pay for it have slowed funding for U.S. research, but not in future-minded states. When Bush sharply restricted federal support of embryonic stem cell research on religious grounds, Californians

voted to spend $3 billion of their own money on it. Connecticut and others responded with their programs, serving humankind and also building up cutting-edge industries employing thousands of their residents.

As Washington state and Colorado allow the sale of recreational marijuana, other states are sure to follow, as Oregon just did.

The tax money will be welcome, of course, and so will be the savings from not having to arrest and imprison millions of nonviolent drug users.

Washington state has also led the charge for raising the minimum wage. That campaign is now spreading to other states.

Lawmakers in D.C., meanwhile, remain dedicated to defending the depressed federal minimum.

Gay marriage. In the beginning, there was Massachusetts.

Massachusetts proved to the rest of the country that the sky did not fall as a result of legal same-sex marriage. Now it’s widespread.

Progressives, ask yourselves, “What good is flowing from Washington these days?” Almost nothing at all is flowing from Washington, so go around it and do your thing.

Nation and Obituaries Couple’s pregnancy is no business of critical friend DEAR ABBY: May I have some advice about a touchy subject? One of my boyfriend’s close friends is going through his third bout with cancer and the prognosis is not good. He is married with a healthy 3-year-old son. So imagine our surprise when his wife announced she’s pregnant.

This is a decision we do not support. I don’t know what they’re thinking, but if you are facing the DEAR reality that your spouse will not be a ro u n d m u c h longer, we don’t feel it is wise to b r i n g another child into JEANNE world PHILLIPS the who will never know his or her father.

Some of her close friends want to throw her a “sprinkle,” and although I am only an acquaintance, I have been invited. How do I handle this? Should I attend and keep my thoughts to myself, decline and/or send a small gift in my absence? I have a hard time making small talk about subjects I don’t agree with.

Did I mention she does nothing but complain about how hard her life is now? I’m afraid if I go and get involved, I’ll be on the hook down the road when she wants to complain about how hard it is to raise two children alone. — ISN’T MY CHOICE DEAR ISN’T: Feeling as you do, decline the invitation. This woman needs friends around her during this painful and traumatic time, and you do not qualify.

To send a small gift would be both thoughtful and kind, because I am sure her life is extremely difficult now.

As to this couple having made a decision with which you do not agree, allow me to point out that not all pregnancies are planned, and this may be one of them.

DEAR ABBY: My folks are in their mid-70s and have health problems. My oldest niece, “Riley,” will graduate from high school next spring and is considering going to a college near them. My parents recently told me that my brother is suggesting Riley move in with them.

The girl has some behavioral issues and is in counseling. She’s not an easy, happy or normal kid.

My parents are extremely uncomfortable with the idea, but have not said anything to my brother. I think they are afraid of a fight or causing hurt feelings. He is in denial about his daughter’s problems.

I’m concerned about my parents. At their age, I don’t think it’s fair to expect them to have another teenager in their home, much less one with issues. Is it my place to say something, and if so, what do I say? — LOOKING OUT FOR MOM AND DAD DE A R L O O K I N G O U T : You should definitely say something, but not to your brother. Talk with your parents. Remind them that if they’re not OK with the arrangement your brother has proposed, it’s their responsibility to make plain that because of their ages and their health problems they’ll be unable to accommodate his request.

Because it’s the truth, it shouldn’t cause an argument or hurt feelings. Also, your brother will have plenty of advance notice that other living arrangements will have to be made for Riley.

Freed detainee focuses on food, family SEATTLE (AP) — Rest, food and family are on the top of Kenneth Bae’s list since arriving home this weekend after years of imprisonment in North Korea.

His sister said he hasn’t spoken about his ordeal yet, but family and friends reconnected late Saturday night over pizza.

“Our family loves food, so we talked a lot about food,” Terri Chung said Sunday outside her Seattle church.

They didn’t ask him a lot of questions. “We mostly wanted to hear from him.”

She said her brother had one stipulation for his first meal back home: No Korean food.

“He said, ‘I don’t want Korean food, that’s all I’ve been eating for the last two years,’” Chung said.

Bae and Matthew Miller, another American who had been held captive in North Korea, landed Saturday night at a Washington state military base after a top U.S. intelligence official secured their release.

“It’s been an amazing two years, I learned a lot, I grew a lot, I lost a lot of weight,” Bae, a Korean-American missionary with health problems, said Saturday night after arriving at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state. Asked how he was feeling, he said, “I’m recovering at this time.”

Bae, surrounded by family members, spoke briefly to the media after the plane

He thanked President Barack Obama and the people who supported him and his family. He also thanked the North Korean government for releasing him.

Chung said Bae was in better shape when he arrived than his family expected.

The family has said he suffers from diabetes, an enlarged heart, liver problems and back pain. He had spent about six weeks in a North Korean hospital before his return, his sister said.

“That helped. As you know, he had gone back and forth between the labor camp and hospital,” she said, adding a doctor checked him on the flight back to the

United States.

His plans for the near future include rest, food and reconnecting with friends and family. Neither his wife nor his children could make it back to Seattle in time for Bae’s homecoming, but the whole family plans to gather for Thanksgiving, Chung said.

Members of Bae’s family, who live near the sprawling military base south of Seattle, met him when he landed Saturday. His mother hugged him after he got off the plane. Miller stepped off the U.S. government aircraft a short time later and also was greeted with hugs.

U.S. officials said Miller of Bakersfield, California, and Bae of Lynnwood,

North Korea said Miller had wanted to experience prison life so he could secretly investigate the country’s human rights situation.

Bae and Miller were the last two Americans detained by the reclusive Communist country.

Last month, North Korea released Jeffrey Fowle of Miamisburg, Ohio, who was held for nearly six months.

He had left a Bible in a nightclub in the hope that it would reach North Korea’s underground Christian community.

DILBERT

Keep your money and your attitude in the black When I am not writing about personal finance and consumer debt, I knit.

Something about the gentle rhythm of yarn and needle calms my spirit and unwinds my brain.

I have managed to finish a few projects, not because I’m a great knitter but because I can tink almost as well as I knit (knit spelled backwards is tearing EVERYDAY o u t ) .

CHEAPSKATE Be ca u se all knitters make mistakes, tinking is a required skill for t h o s e who take the craft seriously.

Mary It doesn’t take too Hunt m a n y oversized sweaters or undersized hats to figure out that the smallest error at the beginning of a project can produce disastrous results if not found and corrected.

Money is a lot like knitting.

By some miracle, all knitting consists of just two stitches: knit and purl. Likewise, with money you have two options: spend or save. And who among us can say they have never made a financial error?

We all make mistakes, but the secret to staying out of the red is correcting the little mistakes before they lead to disastrous results.

In both money management and in knitting, the more you practice the fewer mistakes you’ll make. And, the more success you’ll enjoy.

If you’ve ever found yourself in the red, it is likely that you didn’t land in that position overnight.Rather,it was a series of small, uncorrected mistakes that over time escalated to the crimson condition.

As a college freshman I made the mistake of thinking I could get away with spending money before I actually had it.

The first time I dared to write a check for more money than I had in my account, I was nervous. But I figured with any luck my next paycheck would get to the bank before the one I was about to write.

It’s a chance I was willing to take.

Actually, my little plan worked perfectly. My paycheck did get there first and no one was the wiser. So, I pulled that stunt again and again. I got caught from time to time, but cleverly concluded I wasn’t really overdrawn — I was just under-deposited.

In time, I moved my antics from my checking account to a bevy of credit cards. I allowed myself to believe that as long as I could get away with it, it was okay to spend now. And pay and pay later.

Here’s my point: I didn’t start out in the red. But that one small mistake repeated over and again led to debilitating debt that changed my life. Had I corrected my thinking early on I could have saved myself from the disastrous results that were to follow.

Many people, in fact the majority, aren’t in particularly serious financial trouble. They flirt with the red zone from time to time, teetering between red and black and spending all that they make. For them being in the red is more of a mindset that keeps them from making financial progress.

Waiting is a concept we are careful to teach our children. Too bad so few of us practice what we teach.

Simply doing nothing — waiting — is likely the most efficient way to change your mind from red to black.

Wait to spend your tax refund until you actually have it in hand. Ditto for the next commission check or bonus. Let it sit in the bank for a while. Savor the feeling of being in the black.

Thanks to the consumer credit industry, waiting to buy until you can pay in full has become socially archaic.

But so what? Patience is a virtue. Waiting builds character. It’s good for the soul.

Now, if you will excuse me, I need to get back to my knitting. I have a tiny mitten to finish for a very special little boy whose favorite color just happens to be red.

World lets WORLD Balloons symbolize fall of Berlin Wall Russia ruble float

D I G E S T

Satellite to begin corrective maneuvers BERLIN (AP) — The European Space Agency says one of two navigation satellites that accidentally launched into the wrong orbit will begin corrective maneuvers this month.

The agency said Monday that the two-week operation won’t be able to correct the orbit fully, but could get the satellite into a position where it flies over the same location every 20 days. The standard orbit puts the other Galileo navigation satellites over the same location every 10 days.

The two satellites launched this summer ended up in an elongated orbit rather than a circular one.

BERLIN (AP) — The citizens of Berlin on Sunday released almost 7,000 balloons into the night sky, many carrying messages of hope to mark the 25th anniversary since the fall of the wall that once divided their city.

The symbolic act recalled the giddy night of Nov. 9, 1989, when thousands of people from the communist East streamed through the Berlin Wall to celebrate freedom with their brethren in the West.

“For peace and freedom,” Berlin mayor Klaus Wowereit told a crowd of ten thousands that had gathered at the city’s iconic Brandenburg Gate as he gave The Associated Press the signal to release the balloons, which has been Fireworks explode behind Brandenburg Gate during the central event commemorating the fall of the wall in placed, illuminated, along a Berlin, Germany, on Sunday.

Pistorius appeal hearing set for Dec. 9 STELLENBOSCH, South Africa (AP) — Prosecutors said Monday their application to appeal against Oscar Pistorius’ manslaughter conviction and five-year prison sentence will be heard in a Pretoria court on Dec. 9.

It wasn’t yet decided if the Olympic runner — who is in jail in the same city — would attend the hearing, his lawyer said.

Prosecutors have said Pistorius should have been found guilty of murder for Reeva killing girlfriend Steenkamp. Their appeal against Judge Thokozile Masipa’s initial verdict and sentence has “reasonable prospects” of success, they said.

Hong Kong priority is to avoid violence BEIJING (AP) — President Barack Obama says his priority when it comes to pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong is to ensure that violence is avoided.

Obama is speaking in Beijing about protests that erupted in September in Hong Kong demanding open nominations in the city’s elections. Obama says China isn’t in the same place as the U.S. when it comes to development. But he says it would be unrealistic for the U.S. to set aside its concerns about human rights.

He says the U.S. won’t stop speaking out about the things it cares about.

Obama says the U.S. doesn’t expect China to follow the U.S. model in all circumstances. He says China’s relationship with Hong Kong has historically been complicated.

The hospital was so overcrowded that some patients were squashed two to a bed.

A morgue attendant said 48 bodies were brought to the hospital and all appeared to be between the ages of 11 and 20 years old. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to give information to reporters.

Survivors said the bomber appeared to have hidden the explosives in a type of rucksack popular with students.

free in markets MOSCOW (AP) — With the Russian ruble in a nosedive under the pressure of Western sanctions and slumping oil prices, the country’s central bank decided Monday to freely float the currency in markets and stop regularly spending billions in a vain attempt to stem its fall.

The bank has been burning through its $400 billion in reserves to soften the drop in the ruble, which has lost about half its value since the start of the year as investors pulled money out of Russia and the economy headed toward recession. It spent $30 billion last month alone — an unsustainable rate.

On Monday, the central bank said it would let the market decide what value to give the ruble, which touched a record low of above 48 to the dollar on Friday. It also warned, however, that it would be ready to intervene if necessary to maintain financial stability.

A free float could see the ruble depreciate further in the longer term, stoking inflation and other economic problems for Russians. But investors welcomed the central bank’s move as a necessary step protect the nation’s hard currency reserves and curb market speculation.

As a result, the ruble strengthened sharply on the news, trading up 3.6 percent at around 45 rubles a dollar in midday trading.

The central bank will stop setting daily limits for the ruble’s fluctuations and will not have any obligation to intervene regularly in markets to support the currency.

However, Central Bank Chief Elvira Nabiullina said the regulator will “intervene in the market at any moment in the amount necessary to counter speculative demand.”

Seventh grade students at Sunset Middle School examine an ongoing project at the Coos Bay Boat Building Center on Thursday afternoon. The school is pairing with the center to complete a boat-building project in conjunction with NOAA.

LAKESIDE Continued from Page A1 one of two ways; either by getting a certain percentage of signatures from landowners, as required by state statute, or having the board of commissioners elect to put it on the ballot.

The first option proved challenging since it would have required 100 signatures, or 15 percent of the proposed district’s registered voters, a nearly impossible quest since there are only around 140 residents living within the proposed district boundaries.

name it. Then, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration will take it to the equator and launch it into the Pacific Ocean. A GPS beacon will let Giniger’s students track the boat’s movement.

“We will hope that it’ll land in some foreign land,” he said. “It will probably land in Hawaii or Japan.”

His class is planning on putting instructions in a watertight container in the boat for whomever finds it to contact them. He also wants to throw in a Sunset-themed T-shirt and anecdotes about the school.

“It’s almost like a time capsule,” he said.

On Thursday, the kids walked to the Coos Bay Boat

Building Center to chat with the volunteers.

They checked out boats in various stages of completion to get ideas for their own.

This isn’t the first Oregon school to participate in this project. Waldport High students just launched their boat, Phyxis, about a week ago. To track its movement, go to http://educationalpassages. com.

“There’s a chance it could go down, if we don’t build it correctly or if there’s really rough seas,” Giniger said.

Now, a 90-day public comment period will take place in which the commissioners will hold two pubic hearings. At the end of the 90 days they will decide whether or not to put the issue on the ballot.

County Commissioner Bob Main emphasized how crucial it was for the area’s residents to form a cohesive plan and united front.

“They need a plan set before these voters regarding what they’re going to do with the proposed tax for this WID,” said Main. “If you don’t have a plan why would a citizen want to vote to be taxed?”

He also said that the

Department of Environmental Quality has not done its part in addressing the issue.

For his part, Tim Bishop, the water improvement district’s committee chairman said the district will strive to address as many items that cause the lake’s issues, whether it be bad septic systems, weed species that shouldn’t be on the lake or sediment issues from cattle, agricultural and timber lands.

Lakeside Mayor Dean Warner continues to question the district’s formation.

Those who knew Morgan said she was an amazing person who cared about everyone around her.

Lindsey Tyner, Morgan’s eldest daughter, said her mother was passionate about so many different things.

“She was very, very active in her church,” Tyner said.

Morgan worked as a gardener and IT manager for Eastside Christian Assembly.

“She was always over there watering plants and making sure everything looked good,” Tyner said.

Tyner said her mother loved animals and took her little dogs everywhere. Morgan also was involved with folk dancing and quilting and dedicated her time to

WI-FI Continued from Page A1 and larger file transfers, Comspan said there has been a decrease in the need for municipal Wi-Fi. In Accenture’s 2014 Digital Consumer Tech Survey, both tablet and smartphone ownership have increased since their 2009 reports, with tablets increasing from 8 to 37 percent and smartphones increasing from 26 to 69 percent among participants.

While these higher-tech devices support Wi-Fi, 3G improve our lake and water quality,” said Warner. “But I think the septic part is our number one issue and the WID cannot state what its priorities are. The scientific data can not support the view that the weeds are the number one problem.”

But attorney Adam Gould, who represents the district, said that those opposed to its formation shouldn’t be.

“This isn’t about creating a new district to create a new tax,” said Gould. “It’s about the local Tenmile Lakes area residents and citizens empowering themselves to take control and to fix it.”

Teaching isn’t Giniger’s first career. After receiving his engineering degree, he worked in the aerospace industry for more than 20 years. At Sunset, his survey class revolves around engineering — “that’s what I know,” he said.

There’s a lot of lessons in this experience: buoyancy, currents, mapping, etc.

organizations such as the Society of American Foresters, she said.

One organization Morgan devoted a lot of her time to was the Court Appointed Special Advocates, where she worked as volunteer helping children in need.

Twila Veysey, the program director for CASA, said Morgan volunteered for five years, and in her time with the organization, she helped 19 children in need, which is a lot for a volunteer.

“She worked full-time, but she was still able to do this volunteer work,” Veysey said.

“She was just very diligent about being there and doing it.”

Veysey said Morgan was an amazing person to have in the program, and the day of the accident, Morgan had a visit planned with one of the children in the program.

Morgan had a gift for the child in her car.

Since the accident, there

has been an outpouring of support from the community for Morgan’s family. People have shared stories of Morgan on Facebook and have sent their thoughts and prayers to the family.

Brown said the family has had to find a place big enough for the memorial service because Morgan had touched so many lives.

“We probably got possibly 130 people just between BLM and her church who might be trying to attend her services,” Brown said.

Brown and Tyner said Morgan loved her family more than anything. She was loving wife, mother, sister and and was grandmother, extremely involved in the lives of her grandchildren, Aspen, Cameron and Alyssa.

“She was a good woman, and a dynamo,” Brown said.

“She touched so many people’s lives. She was so involved with community and stuff.

It’s going to leave a big hole.”

and 4G LTE networks are often the preferred choice for connectivity because they are better equipped to handle sizable data requirements in addition to suffering fewer connectivity interruptions.

ORCA proposed an initial investment of $14,089.68 to update the equipment, while Frontier proposed the city lease a new system at $1,900 per month for five years,totaling $114,000, Baker said.

With both Wi-Fi systems, additional funds would have been needed to lease locations to attach additional access points and account for increased electrical costs.

While the proposed systems would improve coverage, there still would be numerous gaps throughout the downtown area, Baker said.

Coos Bay isn’t the first municipality that’s faltered in the worthy experiment to provide free Wi-Fi to its residents.

Shortly after Jerusalem established the first municipal Wi-Fi system in 2004, San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom ambitiously declared his intention of providing everyone in the city with free wireless Internet.

While Google jumped in to donate access points to 31 parks, the project was ultimately scaled down by 2007.

Google had also been providing free network access in

Mountain View, Calif., the location of the company’s headquarters, but earlier this year, the tech giant and city announced a new connectivity plan, scaling down public Wi-Fi to just the downtown corridor.

Just as with Coos Bay, Mountain View residents found the majority of the access points to either be inoperable or lagging with speeds well below 100 kB/s, thus making the system inadequate in terms of meeting its residents needs.

But with the failure of municipalities to provide free Wi-Fi, there has been a boom in the number of public hotspots. iPass, the world’s largest commercial Wi-Fi provider, has projected global hotspot numbers to grow to 340 million by 2018, or one public hotspot for every 20 people,as technology develops to handle the need for fast, high bandwidth connectivity.

As of today, the need for municipalities to provide WiFi is still low, with there being roughly one hotspot per 150 people globally, giving Internet consumers an available avenue for online connectivity.

Between Coos Bay and North Bend, there are currently 11 operable hotspots, according to JiWire’s free WiFi finder app.

Panthers shut out Oakridge

Huskies rally past Bulldogs

THE WORLD Gold Beach beat visiting Oakridge 30-0 on Saturday, opening the Class 2A playoffs with a home win.

The Panthers got two touchdown runs by Colton Pearson in the victory. The other scores came on a touchdown pass from Skyler Floyd to Shawn Wallace and a 44yard run by Rueben Salcido.

Gold Beach now hosts Regis in the quarterfinals this coming Saturday. The Rams topped Lost River 41-10 in another firstround game Saturday.

Heppner 49, Myrtle Point 0: The Mustangs raced past the visiting Bobcats in the Class 2A playoffs, ending a breakout season for Myrtle Point.

“I am very happy and proud of the progress our program made this year,” Myrtle Point coach Marty Stallard said. “We had a lot of positives with 34 players turning out and making the state playoffs.

“But I’m most proud of our seniors and their dedication the last three seasons and their help getting the Myrtle Point program headed in the right direction and for the success we had this year.”

The Bobcats didn’t finish with their best effort against Heppner “I felt we did not play anywhere close to our best,” Stallard said. “It was a long trip with a very young and inexperienced team.

“We will take the experience of the playoffs and the extra week of practice to help us next year. I’m excited about a very good group of young players returning.”

Class 3A Vale 69, Coquille 22: The Vikings blew out the visiting Red Devils behind a dynamic start to the game.

“Vale is a real powerhouse,” Coquille coach David Thomason said. “I would not be surprised if they win state and blow out whomever they play.

“They just ran right through us.

We couldn’t stop them and they just shut us down offensively during the first half.”

The Vikings surged to an early lead, scoring three touchdowns on their first eight offensive plays and then adding a punt return TD for a 28-0 lead less than nine minutes into the game.

Coquille finally got a score when Zach Breitkreutz connected with Austin Layton on a 42-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter. Moe Faith added a 35-yard touchdown run in the third, capping his career with a score in Coquille’s fifth straight playoff game. Wyatt Yates scored on a 2yard run in the final quarter.

Vale will visit Cascade Christian in the quarterfinals. The Challengers knocked off Pleasant Hill, one of Coquille’s Mountain Valley Conference foes.

The playoff loss didn’t damper a great season, Thomason said.

“I and our coaches are real proud of this team,” he said.

“They’ve done things that no one expected us to do. We got better every week and we never quit no matter what.

“The best compliment I can give of our team I heard someone else say: ‘Coquille always plays hard.’”

The Red Devils lose Faith and Kyle Yost, a leader on the offensive and defensive lines.

“But the core of this team remains,” Thomason said. “This season, the league championship game and the trip to Vale all were great learning experiences that will make this team even more mentally strong than they already are.

“It will be hard to top, but next year could be even better than this year was for Coquille football.”

Harrisburg, which beat Coquille for the league title, shut out Rainier in its playoff opener on Friday to advance to the quarterfinals.

Class 4A Mazama 42, Siuslaw 12: The Skyline League champions won the battle of the Vikings in the Class 4A playoffs.

Mazama now faces league foe Phoenix in the quarterfinals, with the winner facing either North Bend or South Umpqua in the semifinals.

North Bend will host the Lancers at 7 p.m. Friday.

Tye Jackson brings in a pass from Powers quarterback Jackson Stallard during the second quarter Saturday.

Cougars crush Cruisers

BY JOSH BENHAM La Grande Observer

WALLOWA — Gareth Murray lived out an offensive lineman’s dream.

The Wallowa senior fielded a first-quarter onside kick from Powers at midfield and scooted for a 50-yard touchdown that spurred a 46-12 run, and the sixth-seeded Wallowa Cougars blew the 10seeded Cruisers off the field for an 82-30 1A first round playoff triumph Saturday.

Powers had just cut the Wallowa lead to 14-12 on quarterback Jackson Stallard’s 30-yard scoring strike to Tye Jackson with 2:08 remaining in the first quarter.

The Cruisers attempted to catch the Cougars off guard on the ensuing kickoff, but the onside kick hopped perfectly into Murray’s arms. The senior did the rest.

“I didn’t really expect it,” Murray said. “They lined up way outside, and they left a gap, so I just ran through it.”

The touchdown created a memory that Murray won’t soon forget.

“It was the funnest play I’ve ever had,” he said.

From there, the two-headed ground attack of Chandler Burns and Micah Fuller asserted its will as Wallowa amassed 499 rushing

yards. One word summed up the Cougars Saturday — physical.

“We got out-physicaled from the get-go. They overpowered us,” Powers head coach Tim Stallard said. “Our turnovers of course didn’t help, but they ran right over the top of us.”

The senior fullback Fuller led Wallowa with 239 rushing yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for two scores.

“We don’t have much size on the offensive line, but every one of those guys is tough as nails,” Fuller said. “Powers is a good, wellcoached football team, but we knew if we executed correctly that we’d be able to come out with a win.”

Burns added 193 yards on the ground with a pair of touchdowns, and quarterback Koby Frye rushed for 51 yards and two scores. “(Powers) switched their defense four or five different times trying to find something to stop us, but our kids did a great job and played physical football,” Wallowa head coach Matt Brockamp said.

Wallowa had four interceptions — two by Patrick Ritthaler — and forced two fumbles. Noah Allen led the way with eight tackles, and Murray and Travis Haga notched two sacks apiece from their defensive end positions as the Cougars harassed Stallard throughout.

“To come out and beat a team

up physically like we did is great for our football team and what we’re trying to do,” Brockamp said.

Following Murray’s score, the Cruisers went for it on fourth down deep in their own territory, but Stallard’s pass was incomplete. On the next play, Fuller busted through for a 34-yard touchdown, powering through a Powers tackler into the end zone, and Frye’s two-point conversion made the score 30-12 with 11:39 remaining in the second quarter.

Wallowa forced a Powers’ punt on the next drive, and a couple of Fuller runs moved the ball into Cruiser territory. On third-and-9 from the 27-yard line, Fuller fooled the defense with a halfback pass, finding Haga wide open to go up 36-12.

A 35-yard Stallard run on Powers’ ensuing possession, punctuated with a 15-yard penalty on Wallowa, moved the ball inside the Cougars’ red zone. On thirdand-10, Stallard hit James Clauson down the middle for a 15-yard touchdown, cutting the lead to 36-18 with 3:52 in the half.

Wallowa countered back, driving the ball down to the 20-yard line of Powers. On fourth-and-3, Burns rumbled 15 yards for a first down.

“The girls had a great season and I am proud of their efforts,” Montiel said. “They met their goals of a league championship and a trophy at the tournament.

Hailee Woolsey led the Pirates in Saturday’s match with eight kills, while Shaylynn Jensen had five and Abby Clough three.

Carli Clarkson and Gabby Bryant had 13 digs each for Marshfield. Jensen had eight assists and five digs and Paige Tavernier had seven assists and eight digs.

Class 4A Pirates place fifth: Marshfield

Coquille’s Jessica Hall holds the team’s sportsmanship trophy at the Class 3A state tournament on Saturday. was swept by Crook County in the third-place game at the Class 4A state tournament in Eugene, 2520, 25-15, 25-7.

“We just could not get any momentum going today,” Marshfield coach Tammie Montiel said.

The Pirates lost in the semifinals to Banks on Friday night. Crook County, meanwhile, fell to Sisters, ending a string of eight straight state titles for the Cowgirls.

The Cowgirls had the better bounce-back effort Saturday. But Marshfield’s loss didn’t spoil its season.

Field set for final NASCAR battle AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) — This season has played out as a battle between Team Penske and Hendrick Motorsports. All the while, Kevin Harvick was holding his own with NASCAR’s heavyweights.

With his season on the line, it was Harvick who stepped up to earn the right to race for his first Sprint Cup title. He’ll do it with a Stewart-Haas Racing team that was in sync from the first time Harvick drove his new No. 4 Chevrolet in December and showed almost every week he could hang with the Hendrick and Penske drivers.

Harvick’s dominating victory Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway in a must-win race earned him one of the four berths in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

He’ll race Denny Hamlin, Joey Logano and Ryan Newman next Sunday for the championship, and the highest finishing driver will claim the title.

It will be the first Cup championship for all four of the drivers.

“You can pretty much sum this whole year up as ‘Holy cow,’” said Harvick. “It’s definitely the best position that, myself personally, I’ve ever been in.”

The final pairing does not include any of the Hendrick drivers, and only one of the two Team Penske cars.

Jeff Gordon was the only Hendrick driver who had a shot Sunday because its three other drivers were eliminated in earlier rounds of NASCAR’s inaugural elimination system. Gordon’s bid for a fifth title ended, though, when Newman used an aggressive move on Kyle Larson coming out of the final turn to pick up a position and knock Gordon out of the final four.

Gordon, who had four wins this season and led the points for most of the year, finished second and missed the finale by one point.

“I’m disappointed, I thought if we came out of here second, even if it was to Kevin or Brad, I thought we’d still make it in,” Gordon said.

“That’s pretty disappointing to do all of that and it just makes last week that much more disappointing. I’m going to be thinking about that one for a while.”

And Penske has only Logano racing for the title after Brad Keselowski, a six-time winner this season, was eliminated on Sunday.

He finished fourth but needed to win to advance.

“We gave it all we had, it was a strong run, it just wasn’t enough to advance,” Keselowski said. “We did everything but win. We broke down in Martinsville and it was a huge hurdle to overcome and it was probably going to take a win.

Fourth wasn’t going to be enough, and we knew that coming in.”

Also eliminated Sunday were Matt Kenseth, who finished third, and Carl Edwards, who was 15th.

Red Devils place fourth at state Coquille’s volleyball team won two matches Saturday to take fourth place at the Class 3A state tournament in Eugene.

The Red Devils earned their first state trophy since the 1997 season and had the best finish in school history. Coquille also won the sportsmanship trophy for Class 3A. Coquille swept Rainier in the consolation semifinals, 25-23, 2520, 26-24. In the fourth-place match, the Red Devils edged Salem Academy 15-25, 25-11, 2519, 13-25, 15-11.

“They played amazing,” Coquille coach Dondi Howard said. “I am so proud of them.”

In the win the over Rainier, Darian Wilson had a great game at the net with 10 kills. Esabella Mahlum had eight kills and 12 digs, Trisha Ray had seven kills, McKenna Wilson had seven kills and 22 digs, Jessica Hall had 20 digs and three aces, Bayli Waddington had 22 assists and 11 digs, and Tara Edwards had four kills, 17 assists and 17 digs.

“Darian played super aggressive at the net,” Howard said.

“Bayli had an amazing setting game and defensive game.”

In the fourth-place match, Mahlum had 16 kills, four digs and three aces. Hall had 31 digs and six aces, Waddington had 27 assists and 18 digs, McKenna Wilson had 11 kills and 18 digs, Darian Wilson had six kills and three aces, Ray had four kills and Edwards had two kills, six assists and 13 digs.

Howard said Mahlum “had the tournament of her life” and added praise for the team’s seniors, Hall and Waddington.

“These seniors are going to be greatly missed,” she said. “They are great kids. They are a huge part of this team.”

In the championship match, Santiam Christian edged Creswell in five games. Cascade Christian beat Vale for third place.

North Marion ended North Bend’s run in the Class 4A boys soccer playoffs, rallying to beat the visiting Bulldogs 2-1 in the quarterfinals Saturday.

North Bend’s Ignacio Aguilar scored early in the second half to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead, but was given a red card a few minutes later when officials ruled he had made an illegal tackle as last defender on a run toward the goal by a North Marion player.

North Bend was forced to play the rest of the match a man down, but still held onto the lead for most of the second half before the Huskies scored two late goals to win. North Marion advances to the semifinals Tuesday, when the Huskies will visit Henley.

The Bulldogs suffered their only loss of the season, finishing the year 14-1-1.

Blazers beat Denver PORTLAND (AP) — With the Trail Blazers off to a 4-3 start, LaMarcus Aldridge was asked to offer his early assessment of the team.

“We’re growing,” he said.

Aldridge scored 28 points and had nine rebounds in the Trail Blazers’ 116-100 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Sunday night.

The Blazers, winners of three of their last four games, made 16 of 31 3-point attempts and all five starters scored in double figures.

With a renewed emphasis on defense this season, Portland held the Nuggets to 17 thirdquarter points.

“I thought we played a very good offensive game throughout. The second-half defense, even though we got off to a bit of a slow start in the first three minutes, we had a good defensive second half,” coach Terry Stotts said.

“It was a good, solid home win.”

Wesley Matthews added 21 points, making five of 13 3point attempts.

Ty Lawson had 18 points for Denver after missing the team’s 110-101 loss at home to Cleveland on Friday night with a sore left ankle.

Kenneth Faried led the Nuggets with 19 points.

It was Denver’s fifth straight loss.

“I did feel better about this game,” Nuggets coach Brian Shaw said. “There’s no moral victories but I did feel better with the rotation, with the effort that our guys gave.

So we just have to keep chipping away to try and stop the bleeding.”

Portland was coming off a 106-102 loss to the Clippers in Los Angeles the day before but showed no sign of fatigue, leading by 18 points in the fourth quarter.

Golden State suffers first loss THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Associated Press

Portland guard Damian Lillard looks for room to maneuver as Denver guard Ty Lawson defends during the first half Sunday.

The Nuggets closed to 102-94 on Lawson’s driving layup with 3:11 left, but Damian Lillard hit a 3-pointer that extended it to 111-98 with just over a minute left to seal it.

Denver also saw the return of J.J. Hickson, who finished a five-game suspension for violating the league’s drug policy. Coach Brian Shaw said Hickson’s minutes would be limited because the forward was coming off March surgery to repair a torn ACL. The Nuggets were without reserve forward Darrell Arthur, who was suspended for a game without pay for shoving Cleveland guard Dion Waiters in the back as he went up for a first-quarter layup. Arthur was ejected.

Aldridge put the Blazers up 55-43 in the first half with a 21-foot jumper. But the Nuggets pulled back into the game, closing to 59-54 on Timofey Mozgov’s dunk.

Matthews hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to make it 6456 going into the break.

Matthews had 19 points in the first half.

Aldridge’s 15-footer gave the Blazers a 75-64 lead midway through the third quar-

ter and Denver never threatened.

The game got chippy in the fourth quarter. Denver’s Kenneth Faried appeared to shove Blazers guard Steve Blake, who turned around and pushed Faried to the ground. Players from both teams jumped in to separate the two, and Blake was given a flagrant foul after a review.

“I’m playing offense and making sure my point guard got open,” Faried said. “He (Blake) ran into the back pick and he got mad about it and pushed me. Yeah, I fell down to make sure the ref saw it.”

Blazers forward Nicolas Batum was injured with just about a minute left in the game. The injury was to his right foot or ankle.

TIP INS Nuggets: Coach Brian Shaw was asked before the game if he planned to double-team LaMarcus Aldridge, who was averaging 22 points. “Everybody knows I don’t like to double team,” he said “I might have to get over my own stubbornness.”

go have fun.”

LOGANO: With five wins this season, he was clearly a championship contender all year as Team Penske appeared to have a double threat with Logano and Keselowski. Now only Logano will represent them at Homestead.

Much like Hamlin, Logano had to work for it Sunday after a penalty for leaving pit road with his gas can still attached to the car.

He and Hamlin were lumped together at the back of the field, Logano also had to work to get back on the lead lap, and he narrowly escaped disaster when a wreck caused minimum damage to his car.

Logano still managed to finish sixth to earn his spot at Homestead.

“It was definitely a drama-filled day,” Logano said. “We were hoping for just a normal, uneventful day. I’m proud of my team and proud of everyone who has helped get us to this point and we’re gonna have some fun next week going for a championship.”

NEWMAN: He’s the surprise in this finale, proving that NASCAR’s increased

emphasis on winning isn’t all that matters.

Newman, in his first season with Richard Childress Racing, is winless. He has only four top-five finishes all year, has led only 41 laps.

But Newman was consistent when the Chase began and has steadily maintained his grasp on a spot in the finale. His lowest finish in the Chase was 18th, and five consecutive top-10s in the middle stretch moved him closer to Homestead.

Still, Newman had to get aggressive to lock up his spot.

Needing one more position to make the Chase, he was aggressive as he raced Kyle Larson coming out of the final turn to pick up that spot and finish 11th.

“I wasn’t proud of what I had to do, but I did it the best way that I possibly could,” he said. “It played in my favor all the way through. That doesn’t mean I’m going to be a champion, it’s just means the system was made like that. In the end, it is what it is, and we all had an opportunity in Daytona to start our Chase for the championship, and now four of us have a chance this coming weekend.”

place semifinals at the Class 2A tournament, ending the season for the Sunset Conference champions.

“The girls struggled this weekend against some very good teams,” Myrtle Point coach Tami Brown said. “I am proud of them for winning the third game against Bonanza because they could have just given up after losing the first two.

“As much as I wish the girls would have played better at the tournament this weekend, I am really proud of them for making it to the final eight.”

Grace Hermann had 12 kills, eight digs and four aces in the match against Bonanza. Kayley Leslie had 13 kills and six digs. Morgan Newton finished with 26 assists, 13 digs, three kills and two aces. Nikki Miller had 11 digs. Christynn Evans had four kills and two aces, Nicole Seals had five kills and Lyndzi Robbins had six assists.

Burns swept Grant Union in the championship match, while Culver swept Kennedy for third place. Bonanza topped Union for fourth place.

seconds, making Wallowa’s halftime lead 44-24.

But Stallard was picked off by Rittaler on Powers’ opening drive of the third quarter, and with four minutes in the frame, Burns ran for a 20-yard score to put Wallowa up 52-24 to put the game out of reach.

The Cruisers got their

final score on the fourth touchdown pass of the day from Stallard to Jackson.

With the loss, Powers finishes the season with a 6-4 record.

“I was happy for my seniors to get to the playoffs,” Tim Stallard said. “It is what it is. My hat’s off to Wallowa.”

PHOENIX — Isaiah Thomas scored 15 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter to lead the Phoenix Suns to a come-from-behind 107-95 victory Sunday over the Golden State Warriors, leaving the NBA with no unbeaten teams.

Fellow reserve Gerald Green added 16 of his 19 points in the final q u a r t e r, when the Suns surged ahead after trailing by eight through three.

Stephen Curry scored 28 points but just six in the second half, when he was plagued by missed shots and foul trouble. Curry, who entered tied for the NBA scoring lead, added 10 assists for his fourth double-double of the season.

Draymond Green added 22 points and nine rebounds for the Warriors (5-1), who played without Klay Thompson (sprained right hand).

Lakers 107, Hornets 92: Kobe Bryant and Jeremy Lin each scored 21 points, and Los Angeles rallied to beat Charlotte for its first victory of the season after five straight losses.

UNTILWE MEET AGAIN While the Blazers host Charlotte on Tuesday, the Nuggets’ next game is at home on Wednesday — against Portland. “I think Wednesday we’re going to be a lot more electrified because we’re tired of losing,” Faried said. “We’re going to do everything in our power to go out there and fight, claw, tooth and nail to get the win. If we can get over this hump we can get out of this drought.”

NASCAR From Page B1 A look at the other championship contenders: HAMLIN: Few thought any of the Joe Gibbs Racing entries were strong enough to advance deep into the Chase, but Hamlin has always viewed these playoffs as a new lease on his season.

He had to work hard, though, to earn his spot in the finale after a tire problem nearly ruined his year.

Hamlin came to Phoenix tied for the points lead, won the pole and was running well when a broken valve stem caused his tire to go flat early in the race.

It dropped him from fourth to 35th and he twice had to rally from a lap down to earn his fifth-place finish.

This will be his second chance to win a championship — he lost the 2010 title to Jimmie Johnson in the final race — and he loves his chances.

“I feel pretty optimistic,” said Hamlin, a one-time winner this season. “Love it, love the opportunity. We’re on house money now, so let’s

Sports Cardinals lose QB Palmer during win THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Ah, the wild West. As in the NFC West.

Considered the league’s best division heading into the season, the NFC West is not disappointing. The top three contenders from the sector, Arizona, Seattle and San Francisco, all were winners Sunday. The C a rd i n a l s also were losers as starting quarterback Carson Palmer injured his left knee.

Palmer was taken to the locker room on a cart after being helped off the field in the fourth quarter with Arizona down by four points.

But the Cardinals (8-1) made several big plays down the stretch to beat St. Louis 31-14 and have the NFL’s best mark through nine games. They haven’t had such a strong record since going 11-1 as the Chicago Cardinals in 1948.

“I think there’s a question mark there because nobody knows what his status is,” backup Drew Stanton said after connecting with rookie John Brown for a touchdown.

“It’s difficult because he is the leader of this team. ...

We’ll just continue to weather the storm, whatever it is.”

Palmer hurt the same knee he injured Jan. 8, 2006, in a playoff game against Pittsburgh, when he tore his ACL and MCL on his first pass of the game.

Palmer was playing some of the best football of his career and, on Friday, signed a three-year contract extension worth a reported $50 million with $20.5 million guaranteed.

Seattle (6-3) ran all over the New York Giants 38-17 thanks to a record-setting performance by Marshawn Lynch. San Francisco (5-4) needed a fourth-and-10 conversion late in the fourth quarter to force overtime in New Orleans before winning 27-24.

Cardinals 31, Rams 14: Stanton and the Arizona defense rallied the host Cardinals with three touchdowns over a span of 3 minutes, 48 seconds.

Brown’s diving grab of Stanton’s 48-yard touchdown pass put the Cardinals (8-1) up 17-14 with 7:40 to play.

Patrick Peterson got his first two interceptions of the season, returning the second 30 yards for a touchdown to make it 24-14. Moments later, Austin Davis fumbled and Antonio Cromartie returned it 14 yards for a score as host Arizona outscored the Rams 21-0 in the fourth quarter.

49ers 27, Saints 24, OT: At New Orleans, Colin Kaepernick completed a 51yard pass on fourth down to Michael Crabtree to sustain a tying drive. Ahmad Brooks sacked and stripped Drew Brees in overtime, and Phil Dawson kicked a 35-yard field goal to win it.

“God smiled down on me today,” Brooks said. “I was rushing and turning the corner thinking, ‘Dang, is he going to throw the ball yet?’

But he didn’t, and I was able to make the play.”

It marked the first home loss for the Saints (4-5) in more than a season. The Saints had won their past 11 at home overall, and the past 20 at home including the playoffs when coached by Sean Payton, who was suspended in 2012.

Brees was intercepted twice, but also passed for three scores, the last to Jimmy Graham to give the Saints a 24-21 lead with 1:52 left in regulation.

Graham also caught a desperation pass in the end zone at the end of regulation, but was called for offensive interference.

Seahawks 38, Giants 17: At Seattle, Lynch rushed for a season-high 140 yards and career-best four touchdowns.

Russell Wilson threw two interceptions, the Seahawks committed three total turnovers, and Eli Manning picked apart Seattle’s secondary for the first half. It all didn’t matter because of Lynch leading Seattle’s unstoppable run game.

Injuries spoil Oregon win at Utah

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Oregon Ducks got their victory in Utah and clinched a place in the Pac12 championship, but it was costly with injuries to three key players.

Cornerback Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, center Hroniss Grasu and tight end Pharaoh Brown all were knocked out of the 51-27 victory Saturday night over the Utes.

The Ducks (9-1, 6-1, Pac-12) have a bye this coming week to assess the damage and heal for the regular season’s final two games, against Colorado and Oregon State. Both the Buffaloes and the Beavers are sitting in the bottom of their conference division.

As a result of the victory at Utah, Oregon moved up a spot to No. 3 in the AP Top 25 released Sunday, while the Utes dropped from No. 20 to No. 25. The Ducks could also move up from fourth in the College Football Playoff when those rankings are announced on Tuesday.

Brown’s right knee injury appeared the worst. He was carted off the field and later taken from Rice-Eccles Stadium by ambulance after going down in the fourth quarter with an injury to his right leg.

Coach Mark Helfrich told reporters Sunday night that Brown remained hospitalized in Salt Lake City and would remain there for several days. He called it a “significant” injury.

“I talked to him last night, and all the rest of the details I think can best be said is we’re doing everything we can for him,” Helfrich said. “Going forward it’s a long process but that dude is a competitive guy and it’s already galvanized our team.”

Brown had 22 catches for 380 yards and five touchdowns this season, including a TD catch in the game against the Utes.

Earlier in the quarter the Ducks suffered a blow with the loss of center Hroniss Grasu because of an apparent left leg injury. Quarterback Marcus Mariota put his arm around his close friend on the sideline to console him and redshirt freshman Doug Brenner took assumed his duties anchoring the line.

“It’s tough but it’s part of the game that we play. Prayers go out to him,” Mariota told reporters after the game.

“But at the same time Doug did a good job of stepping up. We’ve got a lot of trust in him and we’ve got to go with what we have.”

Oregon doesn’t discuss injuries as a policy so it was unclear how serious it was.

Ekpre-Olomu hurt his left big toe early in the game and sat the rest of the way. Later he told The Oregonian that he just “tweaked” it and would be ready for Colorado.

The injuries marred the fifth straight victory for the Ducks, who put up 508

yards in total offense.

But the key play occurred early in the second quarter when an alert Joe Walker returned Kaelin Clay’s careless goal line fumble 100 yards for a touchdown, preventing Utah from taking a 14-0 lead and turning the momentum solidly in Oregon’s favor.

It was just the fifth 100-yard fumble return for a touchdown in NCAA history.

“A lot better being tied at 7 than 14nothing,” Helfrich said. “Our guys would have kept playing and wouldn’t have flinches, but that was huge.”

Mariota threw for 239 yards and three touchdowns, while running for 114 yards and another score.

It was his 36th straight game with a touchdown pass and his fifth 100-yard rushing game. The junior Heisman hopeful has passed for multiple touchdowns in 10 straight games, the longest active streak in the nation.

His next opponent, Colorado, has lost six straight and also has a bye before the game at Autzen Stadium on Nov. 22. The Ducks conclude the season against the Beavers in the Civil War rivalry game on Nov. 29 before facing the Pac-12 South champion six days later at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

“We believe in each other. We know what we have to do,” Mariota said. “We just have to continue to grind it out.”

Freshman QB leads WSU over Beavers CORVALLIS (AP) — The simple fact that the Oregon State Beavers had to settle for four field goals ultimately doomed them against Washington State.

Garrett Owens hit all of his field goal attempts but it was no match for first-time Cougar starter Luke Falk, who threw for 471 yards and five touchdowns in Washington State’s 39-32 victory at Reser Stadium on Saturday.

“We went into the game knowing we had to get touchdowns,” said Oregon State running back Terron Ward. “It’s kind of disappointing knowing that we couldn’t get a touchdown and had to go for a field goal.”

The loss gave the Beavers (4-5, 1-5 Pack 12) a fourgame losing streak as their chances of becoming bowl eligible fell dramatically with

just three games left.

Washington State (3-7, 25) snapped a four-game losing streak with the victory.

The Cougars also snapped a three-game losing streak against the Beavers.

Sean Mannion, who set the Pac-12 all-time record for passing yards last weekend in a 45-31 loss to California, threw for 419 yards and a touchdown in the loss.

Oregon State was also hurt by 10 penalties for 100 yards, and especially when what appeared to be a 38yard touchdown pass from Mannion to Victor Bolden late in the third quarter that was called back by offensive holding on Hunter Jarmon.

Oregon State settled for Owens’ 46-yard field goal for a 25-24 lead in the fourth.

Falk answered by effi-

ciently marching the Cougars downfield, capping the drive with an 18-yard touchdown pass on the run to Dom Williams. After the conversion, Washington State led 32-25 with 11:01 left.

Falk hit Robert Lewis with a 9-yard touchdown pass with 5:57 left before the Beavers scored on a 1-yard scoring run for Terron Ward for the final margin.

Falk was making his first start for the Cougars in place of senior Connor Halliday, who broke his ankle last weekend in the first quarter of the Cougars’ 44-17 loss to USC. The injury ended the prolific senior passer’s college career.

“It’s another fourthquarter game you have a chance to win,” Oregon State coach Mike Riley said. “They made plays and we didn’t and

I’m really disappointed about all of that.”

Montana State 29, Portland State 22: Dakota Prukop and Gunnar Brekke each scored two touchdowns and Montana State ran for 329 yards to win at home.

The Bobcats (7-3, 5-1 Big Sky) stayed in the conference title chase with the win.

Brekke opened the scoring with a 71-yard touchdown run and MSU led the rest of the way.

PSU scored on a blocked punt for a safety in the third quarter to cut the lead to 2215, but couldn't capitalize, while MSU tacked on Purkop's second touchdown run in the fourth quarter.

Josh Kraght ran for 96 yards and a touchdown and passed for 218 yards and a last-gasp score for the Vikings (2-4, 3-7).

Baylor, ASU move up in the rankings THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

teammate Lewis Hamilton in the Formula One title race.

Although the finale in Abu Dhabi in two weeks will be worth double points, Hamilton still remains with a comfortable advantage over his rival heading into the decisive race.

Here’s how he can secure his second world championship in the Nov. 23 race: By winning or finishing second; by finishing fifth or better if Rosberg doesn’t win; by finishing sixth or better if Rosberg is not in the top two; by finishing eight or better if Rosberg misses on the podium; by finishing ninth or better if Rosberg is fifth; if Rosberg is out of the top five, Hamilton will win the title even if he finishes out of the points.

NEW YORK — Baylor, Arizona State and Ohio State all took big steps forward in The Associated Press college football poll after big wins, and Auburn dropped out of the top five after being upset.

For the fifth straight week, the top two are Mississippi State (9-0) and Florida State (9-0).

Oregon jumped to No. 3 past Alabama, which remained No. 4. No. 5 TCU also moved up a spot.

Baylor climbed four places to sixth after romping at Oklahoma, 48-14. Arizona State is up four spots to seventh after a 55-31 victory Bubba rallies for victory against Notre Dame.

SHANGHAI — Bubba Rosberg wins in Brazil Watson holed a bunker shot SAO PAULO — Nico for eagle on the final hole Rosberg won the Brazilian Sunday, and then made a 20Grand Prix on Sunday to get foot birdie putt in the playoff within 17 points of Mercedes to win the HSBC Champions.

Sports Shorts

Watson defeated Tim Clark,who had made birdie on the 18th to get in the playoff.

It was the first World Golf Championship title for Watson.

Lee wins LPGA playoff SHIMA, Japan — Mi Hyang Lee of South Korea birdied the fifth hole of a three-way playoff Sunday to win the Mizuno Classic for her first LPGA title.

Lee sank a birdie putt to beat compatriot Ilhee Lee and Japan’s Kotono Kozuma.

Laura Davies, who held a share of the lead after the second round and was bidding to become the oldest winner in LPGA history at 51, had a 71 to finish one stroke back of the leaders.

Taylor wins PGA event JACKSON, Miss. — Nick Taylor overcame a four-shot deficit to win the Sanderson Championship, Farms shooting a 6-under 66 for a two-stroke victory over Boo Weekley and Jason Bohn.

The 26-year-old Taylor, the first Canadian-born winner on the PGA Tour since Mike Weir in 2007, played the front nine in 4 under to pull even with the leaders and took control with birdies on Nos. 13, 14 and 15.

Czechs win Fed Cup PRAGUE — The Czech Republic claimed its third Fed Cup title in four years after Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova fought hard to overcome Angelique Kerber of Germany in the opening reverse singles match.

In a matchup of two top10 players, Kvitova prevailed 7-6 (5), 4-6, 6-4 in nearly three hours to give the Czechs an unassailable 3-0 lead in the best-of-five series on the indoor hard court at Prague’s O2 Arena.

Kvitova fought back from 4-1 down in the decisive set and went 5-4 up after earning a break point with a stunning forehand crosscourt winner before serving out the match.

The 350 total yards rushing by Seattle (6-3) were a franchise record and the most by any NFL team since Kansas City had 352 in 2012.

Lynch carried 21 times, but there was plenty of running to go around. Wilson added 107 yards on 14 carries and a 1-yard TD run with 5:19 left. Most of Wilson’s runs were designed as New York (3-6) failed to keep containment.

Broncos 41, Raiders 17: At Oakland, Peyton Manning threw five touchdown passes in less than 17 minutes and the Broncos handed the Raiders their 15th straight loss.

Manning threw a pair of early interceptions that put Denver (7-2) in a hole against the NFL’s only winless team.

That all changed with a short pass that C.J. Anderson turned into a spectacular 51yard catch and run. The touchdowns didn’t stop until Manning’s day was done after three quarters.

Manning added two TD passes to Julius Thomas and two more to Emmanuel Sanders as the Broncos rebounded from last week’s loss at New England by beating up on the Raiders (0-9).

Packers 55, Bears 14: Aaron Rodgers threw six touchdown passes to tie the team record for a game and match the NFL record for a half. Rodgers was 18 of 27 for 315 yards, throwing scoring passes of 73 and 40 yards to Jordy Nelson.

The Packers (6-3) led by four touchdowns early in the second quarter of the 190th meeting of the NFL’s oldest rivalry.

The 55 points tied a Packers record at Lambeau Field.

Bears quarterback Jay Cutler had another night to forget in Green Bay. He threw two interceptions, giving him 12 in four games in Titletown.

Jets 20, Steelers 13: Michael Vick threw two touchdown passes and the Jets forced four turnovers while shutting down Ben Roethlisberger to end an eight-game losing streak.

Roethlisberger threw six touchdown passes in each of his last two games, and was playing in front of a MetLife Stadium crowd nearly halffilled with Terrible Towelwaving Steelers fans. But the Jets (2-8) wouldn’t allow Roethlisberger to get into much of a rhythm.

Lions 20, Dolphins 16: At Detroit, Matthew Stafford threw an 11-yard side-armed touchdown pass to Theo Riddick with 29 seconds remaining.

Calvin Johnson had seven catches for 113 yards and a touchdown in his first game back from an ankle injury, and the Lions (7-2) won their fourth straight.

Chiefs 17, Bills 13: Anthony Sherman recovered a fumble to set up Alex Smith’s 8-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.

Jamaal Charles also scored on a 39-yard run as the visiting Chiefs (6-3) scored twice in span of 4:31 to overcome a 13-3 deficit.

Cowboys 31, Jaguars 17: At London, in the third and final game of this year’s International Series, Tony Romo returned after missing last week because of a back injury and helped the Cowboys snap a two-game losing streak by throwing three touchdown passes.

Romo started for Dallas (7-3) and completed 20 of 27 passes for 246 yards and three scores against the Jaguars (19) at Wembley Stadium.

Ravens 21, Titans 17: At Baltimore, Justin Forsett ran for 112 yards and two touchdowns to back a strong performance by the Baltimore defense.

The Ravens (6-4) bottled up rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger in his first road start. He was sacked five times.

Falcons 27, Buccaneers 17: At Tampa, Matt Ryan threw for 219 yards and one touchdown, helping the Falcons stop a five-game losing streak that left the Bucs with a five-game skid of their own.

The Falcons (3-6) won for the first time since embarrassing their NFC South rivals 56-14 on Sept. 18.

Joe Martin, a syndicated cartoonist, said, “If it weren’t for my lawyer, I’d still be in prison. It went a lot faster with two people digging.”

Two-suiters are powerful ... if you find a fit with partner. In general, the quicker you show your suits, the better.

In this deal, after West opened one spade, North overcalled two no-trump, the Unusual No-Trump, to guarantee at least five cards in each of the lowest-ranking unbid suits: clubs and diamonds. After East passed, South gave preference with three diamonds. What

should North have done now?

With a weak hand, North would have passed; with a middling hand, he would have flipped a coin — perhaps raised quietly to four diamonds; but with such a big hand, he had to force to game. And just in case there was a magic fit, he rebid four hearts. This was a splinter bid, which usually would have indicated a singleton, but in this case strongly suggested a void. And it promised a huge hand because it was a slam-try opposite a partner who had promised nothing.

Here, of course, South signed off in five diamonds, hoping partner would get the message.

Against five diamonds, West led the spade ace, cashed the spade king, and shifted to a trump.
