Marshfield grad leaves a lasting legacy BY TIM NOVOTNY The World
COOS BAY — Jerry Norton graduated from Marshfield High School in 1964. He went on to see, and chronicle, some of the best and the worst that this world has to offer. His many friends will tell you that Norton himself was among the best. The longtime journalist, National Press Club member, and Vietnam vet, was buried at Arlington National Cemetery on Friday. The 67-year-old died Dec.15, after a 14-month battle with a brain tumor. Rich Adamson was among his earliest friends, having met Norton in nursery school in Coos Bay. He remembers Norton as a welcoming and easy-going person. “The thing about Jerry, he was incredibly intelligent but didn’t wear his IQ on his sleeve. By Tim Novotny, The World He was just nice to Highly intelligent, friends say Norton wasn’t one to “wear his IQ on said his sleeve.” everybody,” Adamson. Speaking by phone from his Wash., Shelton, home Adamson said he can still remember something he read in Norton’s high school annual about 50 years ago. “I can’t who remember wrote it, but it said ‘Jerry, when you get to the White House, please hire me as your head janitor.’” He never made it By Tim Novotny, The World the White House, to A lifetime journalist, Jerry Norton but he sure got to see began his career as the editor of the By Tim Novotny, The World a lot of the world Marshfield High School newspaper. during his lifetime.

COOS BAY — The top school nurse in the state helps kids right here on the South Coast. Karen Brown, district nurse coordinator for Coos Bay schools, was named Oregon School Nurse of the Year at the Oregon School Nurses Association’s annual conference April 3. Around 230 school nurses statewide are ONSA members. Thousands of Coos Bay students have known her as Nurse Karen for the last 20 years. Typically, she serves 1,200 K-7 students in two schools. When she’s on call, that jumps to 3,000 K-12 students. “This award is really gratifying,” Brown said. “To be acknowledged by my peers, by Coos Bay School District staff who submitted the application ... to be a rural nurse, this is an amazing honor. I see it as more of the community being honored and my fellow nurses.” Coos Bay schools special education director Lisa DeSalvio nominated Brown for the award. “This ‘I will,’ ‘Can do it,’ ‘Little Red Hen Lady’ has had a great impact on myself with her creativity and nursing work ethic bar none,” DeSalvio wrote in her nomination form. “Her never-ending innovations, promoting ideas, broad and current knowledge base on health, teaching colleagues and building relationships is all in a day’s work for her.” SEE NURSE | A8
Oracle: Don’t blame us PORTLAND (AP) — After six months of near silence about the problems at Cover Oregon, the project’s main technology contractor says it’s not to blame for the failed launch of Oregon’s health insurance exchange. In a letter to Cover Oregon’s temporary leadership last week, obtained by The Associated Press, Oracle Corp. President and Chief Financial Officer Safra Catz wrote that Oracle provided “clear and repeated warnings” to Cover Oregon that the exchange website would not be ready to launch last October. This assertion goes directly against what Oregon officials have told the public and independent investigators who reviewed the project: that Oracle was to blame because the tech giant’s staff regularly reassured the state that the portal was almost ready, asserting that the next release of the website would work. It didn’t. Despite promises that the exchange would soon launch to the public, Cover Oregon and Oracle missed deadline after deadline. More than six months SEE ORACLE | A8
Court to weigh challenge to ban campaign lies WASHINGTON (AP) — As political campaigns begin to heat up, the Supreme Court is deciding whether false accusations and mudslinging made during an election can be punished as a crime. Addressing an issue of negative campaigning that now may be a fact of life in American politics, justices will consider a challenge to an Ohio law that bars false statements about political candidates. The case being heard next week has attracted national attention, with least 15 other states having similar laws. Groups across the political spectrum are criticizing the law as a restriction on the First Amendment right to free speech. Even Ohio’s attorney general, Republican Mike DeWine, says he has serious concerns about the law. His

Bandon fourth-grader takes a stand against bullying BY AMY MOSS STRONG The World
BANDON — Disney’s Thumper had it right: “If you can’t say nothin’ nice, don’t say nothin’ at all.” That’s the attitude that Ocean Crest Elementary School fourth-grader MacKenzie Williams is promoting with an anti-bullying free concert, beginning at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 3, at Washed Ashore in the Harbortown Events Center. Organizers are calling it “MacKenzie’s Cause.” MacKenzie said she has been teased and bullied at school and on the bus since first grade and so have her friends. Older family members remember similar treatment — being called fat, stupid and other choice words, and being excluded

from certain groups or activities. “I was on the bus and sitting by a girl and she said she wished the bus would stop fast and that I’d go flying out the window and get run over,” MacKenzie said, describing one incident. MacKenzie’s friends stood up for her, but later they talked about why people are sometimes so mean. She came home and told her mom. That night, the family came up with the idea of a concert to promote awareness of the effects of bullying. The concert will feature local bands and musicians as well as kids art
School foundation Spring Tea Fundraider on tap COOS BAY — The Coos Bay Schools Community Foundation will host its annual Spring Tea Fundraiser 4-5:30 p.m. April 23 at St. Monica's Church. The program will include student performances from the Marshfield Men’s Ensemble, Madison Elementary School, the Madrala Players, and a harmonica/ukulele group from Blossom Gulch Elementary. Since 2007, the foundation has awarded 177 grants totaling $94,133 to programs

To make a reservation, contact Jennifer Groth at 541-217-8293 or sjgroth@charter.net. Donations to the foundation can be mailed to P.O. Box 1372, Coos Bay, OR 97420.

Music will be from Stillwater Reserve, featuring Mary Luther, MacKenzie’s aunt who is helping plan the event; Done Deal with Mary Johnson of Washed Ashore, who also is assisting; Candace Kreitlow; and Kenny, Bob and Rob (Kenny Croes, Bob Shaffar and Rob Hamilton). Angela Phillips, a conflict resolution program facilitator, will present anti-bullying education in 15 minute increments throughout the day between band performances. Phillips has been teaching conflict resolution to fifth grade classes for the past four years through a grant provided by Neighbor To Neighbor Mediation. MacKenzie also plans to
have anti-bullying pledges for people to sign. Her friends and classmates will be on hand to help, with support from local teenagers and adults. Her mom Joni said it’s not that the school’s teachers and administrators aren’t doing something about it — they are. But much of the teasing is done on the playground, or quietly, out of view or earshot of teachers or aides, or on the bus, where it’s even harder to monitor. Mimicking, mockery, isolation and spreading rumors could all be considered bullying. “We’re not blaming teachers or the schools for this situation,” Joni said. “Mrs. Olive (Ocean Crest principal) is working with us. It starts with parents, who should teach their children not to

can sit on the bench and that’s a clue for someone else to come talk to them or invite them to play. Luther said she’s proud of her niece. “This child has a great idea and is big and strong enough to say ‘I want to do something about it,’” Luther said. Joni Williams said the event is not about MacKenzie, but to bring awareness to and try to stop the hurtful behaviors. Perhaps MacKenzie says it best herself: “I’ve noticed some people being mean to me or other people. That’s not good, but I can’t change who they are. But you can say, ‘Hey, can you please stop’ or, ‘Please say sorry to that person.’ So stop bullying now! If you stop, wouldn’t it make the world a better place?”

New blog; new videos = more news Our view A new education blog and more video news means more information for you.
What do you think? The World welcomes letters. Email us at letters@theworldlink.com.
Time to introduce some more new features we’ve come up with recently for your news consuming pleasure. Since arriving to the Bay Area last August, Iowa transplant Chelsea Davis has taken on the education beat and pumped up our schools coverage at least a couple of notches. Now she adds a new educational blog to her repertoire: Head of the Class. Several times a week Chelsea will fill the blog with tidbits of info that don’t fit or can’t wait for full story treatment in the
print edition. Everything from school board schedules to winners of the Battle of the Books; kindergarten registration times to curriculum reviews, Chelsea is going to empty her notebook to keep you up to date on school happenings from Coos and Curry counties. We’ve added a new drop down menu to www.theworldlink.com. Look for “Blogs” and that’s where you’ll find Head of the Class. We hope to add more blogs from the staff in the coming weeks and months. Here’s another enhance-
ment you’ll find on our website — more news videos from our own Tim Novotny. Many of you will remember Tim as former news director at KCBY-TV. Tim joined us about two years ago and we’ve always wanted to beef up our already substantial video gallery with his talent. Now we’re doing just that. From the multimedia drop down menu, click on videos to find Tim’s latest: the downed power line in North Bend last weekend, students re-planting a forest, and our latest favorite — Tim as
stand-in for a Publisher’s Clearing House Prize Patrol giveaway earlier this month. So, more videos from Tim to see alongside those of the rest of our talented crew of multi-taskers. Obviously, news happens all the time. And there’s always more news and information we have to give you than we can find room for on the page. Fortunately, we haven’t filled up the Internet — yet. See for yourself. Go to www.theworldlink.com or open us up on your phone app. And keep clicking ...
Only love can remake your heart Was Jeb Bush right to insert love into a political debate? Such was the gist of a question I was asked on talk radio in response to the former Florida governor’s assertion that some immigrants come into the United States illegally as an “act of love.” It would be trite to echo the Beatles a halfdecade later and say, “All You Need Is Love.” It would also oversimplify and obscure rigorous policy differences. But it also could be a start. It was decades ago when I first heard someone suggest “higher fences” — wired for electricity — as the optimum solution for any and all immigration problems. The commenter may have been half-joking, but the sentiment exists, and it’s distressing. To borrow a phrase from Boys Town, he’s not an illegal, he’s my brother. That’s the point Cardinal Sean O’Malley and others were making earlier this month when they celebrated Mass at a Mexico border crossing in Phoenix. For two decades, O’Malley, the current cardinal archbishop of Boston, worked with immigrants in Washington, D.C. At the Mass, he said: “I often share the story of my first days at the Centro KATHRYN Catolico, when I was visitLOPEZ ed by a man from El Salvador who sat at my Columnist desk and burst into tears as he handed me a letter from his wife back in El Salvador, who remonstrated him for having abandoned her and their six children to penury and starvation.” The man in O’Malley’s anecdote had been putting all his earnings in an envelope, which he put in what he’d been told was the mailbox on the corner. In truth, it was a fancy trash can, and his money was being stolen. When we talk politics, this is what we ought to bear in mind: people, humiliations, hopes and dreams, pain and heartache. And, yes, love. At the Mass at the border, Cardinal O’Malley and other bishops of the United States were following in a model set by Pope Francis,who has implored us to stop ignoring our brothers on the side of the road, to refuse to be indifferent to the plight of our brothers and sisters in pain. Perhaps that’s what Jeb Bush had in mind. And perhaps that’s why Bishop James D. Conley recently wrote about in a pastoral letter titled “The Language of Love.” He, too, like Pope Francis and Cardinal O’Malley, is imploring people. The topic of his letter was contraception. "We live in a world short on love,” Conley observed. Who could disagree? He continued: “Love — real love — is about sacrifice, and redemption, and hope. Real love is at the heart of a rich, full life. We are made for real love. And all that we do — in our lives, our careers and our families, especially — should be rooted in our capacity for real, difficult, unfailing love.” All that we do includes politics. And it starts on the frontlines, with people devoted to letting troubled women and men know that they are not alone. Where people know that there is a pastor who cares for their souls and their lives, and a doctor who will bring their baby in the world and a team at a local maternity home that will help them with the skills they need to face the challenges of parenthood. Love keeps us from abandoning our neighbor and makes us work harder to craft policy that always keeps the human person and her dignity in mind. Maybe it remembers a fake mailbox with some humility and compassion.Love makes it intolerable for us to let a governor campaign for extending abortion access in a state where the rates are already abysmally high and no one is paying attention. As Christians contemplate the holiest week on the calendar, embracing an unending, sacrificial love can make a world of difference.
Letters to the Editor Try reading the Constitution The letter of April 3 from David Leader reminds me of the saying, “A lie can make it halfway around the world in the morning before the truth has a chance to put its pants on.” His letter to the editor in part said: “The Founding Fathers penned a ‘separation of church and state’ into the Constitution.” What constitution is he referring to? If Mr. Leader had taken the time to read our Constitution before writing you, he would know that the word “separation,” “church” and “state” are not even in the Constitution! None of those three words are found in the First Amendment or any other founding document! Give me a break. Doesn’t anyone read the Constitution? I sure wish our elected representative would!

Our schools need our support Too much change going nowhere. I see the Coos Bay School District is considering another school configuration change. I have also been reading about the same issues North Bend is having. What I have not heard was let’s look at consolidating the two districts. You have two districts with basically the same problems, low enrollment, deteriorating buildings, no money and no public trust. Once this community sees some real problem-solving and some short-term and long-term planning (real attainable, measurable plans) the possibility of a bond levy will become more attainable. The sad part is we all know earthquakes are inevitable in our future, and our children are in old schools in unsafe locations. The school boards need to make some tough but intelligent decisions. We cannot keep doing the same thing year after year, simply changing things with no progress. The schools in this area could benefit greatly if these communities’ leaders and citizens can figure out a way to get behind the LNG facility and the South Coast Community Foundation. That
could provide a substantial amount of money for our schools. This may be a one time opportunity. The founders of SCCF, John Whitty, Joanne Verger and Bill Lansing, are all outstanding people. They have always been big supporters of this community and I feel they have always shown a high level of integrity and leadership. If LNG comes and the SCCF moves forward, we still need some real measurable and attainable plans for our schools. We cannot just go out and build schools, spend all the money, and in 30 years be back where we are now. By combining the two districts, it provides more assets and resources to solve both district’s problems now. The school boards need to take a real serious look at combining the districts. Having a strong school district is also extremely important to bring companies with good paying jobs to this area. Let’s do something different than is being done in Washington, D.C. — work together for the future generations. If you are a citizen of this area and want the school boards to take a serious look at consolidation, let people know. Citizens can induce change by letting our leaders know we want them to lead, and giving them input. We need our leaders making decisions that are good for the majority of the community.

Pay attention to school boundaries North Bend parents, do you know where your child will be attending elementary school next year? Planning to start or continuing to attend Hillcrest or North Bay? You may be in for a big surprise. Reconfiguration has been on the table now for almost one year. The North Bend school board made a decision this year to introduce full-day kindergarten and make both Hillcrest and North Bay K-5 in 2014-2015. This isn’t a bad model, but this new configuration will come with significant changes. Have you been following the news? Lighthouse Charter School, currently housed at North Bay, has been exploring leaving and moving into their own facility.
Negotiations with the Airport District to lease the previous Xerox call center are all but finalized with the support of the North Bend school board. Over crowding at Hillcrest is now solved. There will be plenty of room at North Bay. All this sounds great unless you are one of the 40 children per grade, 200-plus children overall, who plan to return next school year to Hillcrest but will be redistricted to North Bay. The District Leadership Team (DLT) is currently devising a plan to move the boundary lines. Where will they be? Virginia? Brussels? Broadway? All those on one side would attend Hillcrest and the other side North Bay. This shouldn’t be news to parents. The North Bend school board has tried to get the community involved but only a few parents have participated in this process. The DLT has been mandated to come up with the boundary lines by May 1. If you live in North Bend city limits, pay taxes and want your children attending Hillcrest in 20142015, get involved! Lawrence Cheal North Bend
Abortion issue is confounding Imagine the headline: “Aborted babies incinerated to heat UK hospitals,” (Sarah Knapton, UK Telegraph, Tuesday, April 8, 2014). I’m not making this up. Google it if you doubt the veracity of the story. I warn you it will be disturbing to even the most callous. Said the article in part: “The bodies of thousands of aborted and miscarried babies were incinerated as clinical waste, with some even used to heat hospitals, an investigation has found. At least 15,500 fetal remains were incinerated by 27 NHS trusts over the last two years alone.” I’d point out the old cliché about truth being stranger than fiction but somehow even that seems a bit callous. While driving through Eugene recently, I noticed a few demonstrators with signs reading, Stop Abortion Now, and such. Truth is, there were far more pan-handlers on the streets holding all kinds of cardboard signs asking for things from food to gas to
medicine for the kids than those willing to brave the rainy weather for the un-born’s right to life. There’s something being said here, I think, but I’m not sure what that is. We have an odd circumstance facing our nation. On one hand we have a definite minority, essentially speechless; helpless to defend themselves against a huge industry of abortion, funded and legislated into near omnipotence. On the other hand we have a growing population of immigrants (also a minority) who have come here seeking a “better life” for themselves and their families. One minority has no votes or money to give, the other a seemingly golden passport of support to the brave politician willing to champion their cause. It seems clear why the one group receives more attention from lawmakers than the other. After all, no lawmaker gets to Washington (or Salem) without votes and money. One side delivers the goods, somehow, the other side of course cannot. Some say our politicians claim the high-ground when it comes to fighting for the little guy. Others, like myself, aren’t so sure about that. I don’t pretend to understand this; I’m still waiting for someone to explain to me how a woman’s right to an abortion trumps the unborn child’s right to life. Friends tell me not to hold my breath on this one. I’d hold it for dear life if I thought it’d help the ones who really need it the most. Pete Stingley Ash Valley

State Father of four is selfish to put his health at risk DEAR ABBY: I am a 34year-old wife and mother of four. I’m concerned about my husband. He is 44 and drinks at home every evening after work. I don’t mind him having a few cans of beer, but he drinks between six and 12 a day. He refuses to see a doctor for checkups or when he is sick. I am worried about his health. The drinking could have an impact, and I would like him to have a physical exam to put my mind at ease. I tell my husband I want him to take care of himself to live longer for our chilDEAR dren’s sake ( o u r youngest is 4). At times, we argue about it, and I’m tired of fighting over his drinking. JEANNE i s H PHILLIPS response is, “At least I do it at home and not at the bar.� I think he is being selfish and thinking only of himself. He talks about “pride.� How can I get him to cut down on his drinking or see a doctor as needed? — WORRIED WIFE IN GUAM DEAR WIFE: Your husband is an alcoholic. He may not want to see a doctor because he knows what the doctor will tell him. It is important that you understand you cannot control another person’s behavior, and the only person who can “get� your husband to stop drinking or cut down is him. For your own emotional well-being, I’m advising you to contact Al-Anon. Al-Anon is a fellowship of family members and friends of alcoholics, and it was created to help people just like you. Visit AlAnonFamilyGroups.org, call 888-4AL-ANON or email wso@al-anon.org. You may also want to contact your department of mental health services for guidance. I can’t guarantee that it will help with your husband’s illness — because alcoholism is one — but it will help you to cope. DEAR ABBY: I’m 13 and in middle school. We have a program called an iPad Pilot Program in which students are given an iPad for a year to use in daily classroom activities. I’m a responsible honor student, yet somehow some scratches appeared on it one day. My parents are really tight with money. I’m afraid if I tell them, I’ll get in trouble. I have some video games I don’t play anymore that I can sell to fix the scratches, but if I do, my parents will find out. I guess I don’t want them to be upset or think I’m irresponsible. Please tell me what to do. — IN A BIND DEAR IN A BIND: Some wear and tear on items that are issued to students is to be expected. Stop stalling and tell your parents what happened. They are going to find out eventually, and it is better that they hear it from you. DEAR ABBY: I recently moved into a lovely house located not far from a funeral home. From time to time, funeral processions pass by my house. Is there a way for an outsider to quietly pay respects without making the people in the procession uncomfortable? I feel bad ignoring them and just going about my business. I don’t wear hats, or I’d remove it. I’m also not Catholic, so the sign of the cross doesn’t seem appropriate. Any ideas? — RESPECTFUL IN NEW JERSEY DEAR RESPECTFUL: While no gesture is required, if you happen to be outside when a funeral procession passes by, pause from what you’re doing and place your right hand over your heart to acknowledge the mourners’ grief. I’m sure your thoughtfulness will be appreciated. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Portland plans reservoir flush
The Associated Press
Tilikum Crossing is the name chosen for the Portland-Milwaukie Light Rail Bridge and was announced at a ceremony punctuated by a 15 x 150-ft banner unrolling from the bridge on Wednesday in Portland. The bridge is expected to open in September, 2015.
Portland’s car-free bridge named Tilikum Crossing PORTLAND (AP) — A car-free bridge that’s nearly ready to span the Willamette River just south of downtown Portland will be named Tilikum Crossing. A banner revealing the was unfurled identity Wednesday along the side of the cable-stayed bridge, following a brief snafu in which nothing happened after a crowd on the riverbank counted down from 10. The bridge is named for a Chinook word that means people, tribe and relatives. Historian Chet Orloff,
who chaired the bridgenaming committee, said Tilikum has conveyed the meaning of community for centuries, and it was chosen because it had the “most promise to connect the people of our region today with the long past of people who have been here on both banks of the river for thousands of years.� The $135 million bridge scheduled to open next year will be Portland’s 12th across the river that divides the city’s east and west side. It’s the first to be built since 1973
and only the fourth since 1931. Tilikum Crossing is unique to Portland and the United States because it will carry light rail, streetcars, buses, bikes and pedestrians, but be off-limits to the automobile. The naming process has been a hot topic in Portland as the TriMet regional mass transit agency invited citizens to submit suggestions. The committee chose names that have historical or geographical significance and bypassed whimsical suggestions.

PORTLAND (AP) — Once again, Portland officials are preparing to flush millions of gallons of treated water because a young person urinated into a city reservoir. Water Bureau Administrator David Shaff said 38 million gallons will be discarded because a 19-yearold was caught in the act on Wednesday. Three years ago, the city drained a 7.5 million-gallon reservoir. The open reservoirs hold water that’s already been treated and goes directly into mains for distribution to customers. The urine poses little health risk, but city officials don’t want customers to think the water’s tainted. Shaff says the city has plenty of water to meet demand. The reservoir is one of five the city is in the process of replacing with underground storage to comply with federal regulations.
Police officer wounded, dog killed in shootout PORTLAND (AP) — A Portland, police dog sicked on a burglary suspect was fatally shot early Wednesday, and his handler was wounded. The Oregonian reports three suspects are in custody, including one who was the object of a manhunt in southwest Portland. Chief Mike Reese said officers saw three people coming from a uniform shop and flee in an SUV. A chase ended when the SUV crashed into a utility pole. Reese says an officer directed his dog to “Take that suspect!� and there was a shootout. The man was captured three hours later. The German shepherd was found beneath a hedge near the shooting scene. The wounded officer is expected to recover. The dog was wearing a harness but not a ballistic vest.

Retired Marine convicted of killing wife MEDFORD (AP) — A retired Marine has been convicted of killing his wife after a Medford, jury rejected his testimony that she shot herself. Jurors deliberated throughout the day Wednesday before reaching a verdict in the case of 45year-old Bourne Huddleston. He was convicted of murder and related counts in the March 23, 2012, death of 34year-old Kristy Huddleston. The former gunnery sergeant was also convicted of murder solicitation. Prosecutors said he tried to hire two other men to kill his wife before doing it himself. The prosecution said Huddleston was under pressure over his relationship with a nursing student and both women had confronted him.
Auditor questions $17M spent for bridge PORTLAND (AP) — The Washington auditor’s office questions $17 million of the $188 million the state spent on plans to build a new Interstate 5 bridge across the Columbia River before the project was aborted. The audit says most of the money that went to about 30 subcontractors could have been acceptable but they did not submit proper overhead and profit documentation to the general contractor. The Oregonian reports the Washington Legislature called for the audit. Washington backed out of the $3.5 billion Columbia River Crossing project last year. Oregon attempted to keep it going on its own, but the project died when the legislative session ended in March.

Nation and World Iran reduces potential weapons grade uranium
NEWS D I G E S T
KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — Three pro-Russian militants died and 13 were wounded when Ukrainian troops repelled an attack on a National Guard base in the Black Sea port of Mariupol, Ukraine’s interior ministry said Thursday. A crowd of around 300 men armed with stun grenades and Molotov cocktails attacked the base, in the south-east part of the country late Wednesday,the interior ministry said in a statement. Servicemen inside fired warning shots but the attackers did not stop the assault and the army had to respond,it said.
Little government response to bombing BOSTON (AP) — A year after homemade bombs ripped through the Boston Marathon, state and federal officials have enacted virtually no policy changes in response to the attack, a dramatic departure from previous acts of terrorism that prompted waves of government action. “There was a great deal of concern right after this happened,” said Rep. William Keating, a Massachusetts Democrat. “Now, people are focused on so many different issues.”
Evacuation too late for many on sinking ferry MOKPO, South Korea (AP) — An immediate evacuation order was not issued for the ferry that sank off South Korea’s southern coast, likely with scores of people trapped inside, because officers on the bridge were trying to stabilize the vessel after it started to list amid confusion and chaos, a crew member said Thursday. Meanwhile, the coast guard said it was investigating whether the ferry’s captain was one of the first ones off the sinking ship.
Israeli visitors return to Palestinian towns RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — This bustling center of Palestinian life is just a 20minute drive from Jerusalem, but for Israelis it might as well be on the other side of the world. Since a major round of fighting Israeli-Palestinian more than a decade ago, Israelis have been kept out of Palestinian cities by the Israeli military and their own fears. But after several years of relative calm, a few have begun trickling back in tours led by Palestinian guides and guarded by plainclothes Palestinian security agents.

NORTON Spent 25 years with Reuters Continued from Page A1

Registered nurse Karen Brown takes a student’s temperature in the health room at Millicoma Intermediate School in Eastside on Wednesday. Brown, district nurse coordinator for Coos Bay schools, recently won the 2014 Oregon School Nurse of the Year award from the Oregon School Nurses Association.

In an attempt at humor, satirist P.J. O’Rourke and the libertarian Cato Institute filed a widely circulated brief ridiculing the law and defending political smear tactics as a cornerstone of American democracy. O’Rourke’s brief celebrates a history of dubious campaign remarks including President Richard Nixon’s “I

am not a crook,” President George H.W. Bush’s “Read my lips: no new taxes!” and President Barack Obama’s “If you like your health care plan, you can keep it.” The Ohio law makes it illegal to knowingly or recklessly make false statements about a candidate during an election. The high court is not expected to rule directly on the constitutional issue, instead focusing on the narrower question of whether the law can be challenged before it is actually enforced. The case began during the 2010 election, when the Susan B. Anthony List, an anti-abortion group, planned to launch a billboard campaign accusing thenDemocratic Rep. Steven Driehaus of supporting taxabortion payer-funded because he backed President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul. Driehaus urged the Ohio Elections Commission to
block the ads, arguing that the proposed billboard was false under Ohio law. Given the threat of legal action, the billboard owner declined to run the ad. Driehaus eventually lost his re-election bid and withdrew his complaint before it could be fully heard. The Susan B. Anthony List then challenged the state law as unconstitutional, but a federal judge ruled against the group, saying it hadn’t suffered any harm in the case and thus didn’t have standing to sue. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati agreed. The Susan B. Anthony List argues that it continues to face the threat of prosecution under the law. This election season, the anti-abortion group says it’s moving ahead with plans to purchase billboards in opposition to Democratic U.S. senators in Arkansas, North Carolina and Louisiana.

ORACLE Parting ways at the end of April Continued from Page A1 later, Oregon’s exchange is the only one in the nation that still doesn’t let the public enroll in coverage in one sitting. Instead, Oregonians must use a time-consuming hybrid paper-online application process and the state was the only one to receive a month-long enrollment extension from the federal government. The website’s failure, and Oracle’s role in it, has attracted notice from tech-industry publications. Cover Oregon spokesman

Michael Cox confirmed the agency has received Catz’s letter. In a response letter to Catz provided to the AP and dated Wednesday, acting executive director Clyde Hamstreet wrote that he is not yet in a position to respond to Oracle’s arguments. Hamstreet, a turnaround consultant, took over Cover Oregon’s leadership four days ago. Cover Oregon declined to provide any other comments on Catz’s letter. The state is parting ways with Oracle at the end of April and is on the brink of deciding whether to switch to the federal exchange or hire a new contractor to fix the botched website. The state has already paid
Oracle $134 million in federal money and is withholding $26 million from the company. Oregon also hired a legal firm to review options. Catz’s arguments could reflect what Oracle plans to say in court if either Oregon or Oracle file a lawsuit. In the letter, Catz cites “many documents and comdetailing munications project risks and readiness provided to Cover Oregon.” She also says Cover Oregon didn’t provide some critical specifications to Oracle until November 2013, a month after the exchange was to go live. Oracle declined to comment on the contents of the letter or provide the documents.

Blazers cap regular season with win PORTLAND (AP) — Leaving the Trail Blazers’ locker room following the regular-season finale, Wesley Matthews was wished well in the playoffs. “Now the fun starts,” he said. The Blazers wrapped up the regular season with a 110-104 victory Wednesday night over the Los Angeles Clippers, with both teams resting key players in advance of the postseason. Will Barton had a career-high 23 points for the Blazers, who sat All-Star forward LaMarcus Aldridge. Seeded fifth in the Western Conference, Portland will face the Rockets in a first-
round series starting Sunday in Houston. The Blazers ended the regular season on a five-game winning streak. They won 54 games, their most since the 2008-09 season, and bettered their record by 21 wins over last season for the biggest turnaround in franchise history. “We’ve got to stay in our game and do what we’ve been doing all season, staying together as a team,” Blazers guard Damian Lillard said. “We’ve done that all year, through ups and downs. And now we need to do it in the playoffs. Jamal Crawford had 34 points
for the Clippers, who didn’t play Chris Paul and Blake Griffin. The team set the franchise record for most regular season wins (57) the night before with a victory over Denver. Going into the game the Clippers had a chance to secure the No. 2 seed in the West. But when Oklahoma City defeated Detroit earlier Wednesday, the Clippers sewed up the third seed and will face Golden State in the opening round starting Saturday. Paul, Griffin and J.J. Redick did not make the trip to Portland. The team had already announced that Griffin would not
play when the league suspended him for the game because he had accumulated 16 technical fouls. Griffin was handed the technical in Tuesday night’s 117-105 win against the Nuggets. DeAndre Jordan started but he played less than two minutes before he headed to the bench. “We wanted to win. I hope I didn’t send the wrong message to you guys that because we sent guys home we weren’t going to play hard and play to win,” Clippers coach Doc Rivers said. “We want to win the game. It’s a competition no matter who is out on the floor.”
In addition to Aldridge, the Blazers sat reserve guard Mo Williams. But Portland saw the return of forward Joel Freeland, who hadn’t played since Feb. 11 with a sprained MCL in his right knee. The Blazers need Freeland to back up center Robin Lopez against the Rockets and Dwight Howard. “To be out that long is tough,” Freeland said. “But at the end of the day it gave me time to rest my leg, time to rest my body.” Portland led by as many as 22 points in the first half.

Carter pitches no-hitter THE WORLD Dustin Carter turned in a fabulous performance just a few days after his older brother, Joshua, was killed in a car accident near Scottsburg. The Gold Beach senior pitched a five-inning no-hitter against visiting Coquille in the opener and then picked up the win in relief in the nightcap as the Panthers swept the Red Devils 11-0 and 16-5 in a nonleague doubleheader Wednesday. “It was a beautiful site,” said Gold Beach coach Greg Brown. “He just took care of business.” Carter recorded 12 of the 15 outs in the opener by strikeout, including eight of the first nine batters. Meanwhile, teammate CJ Maxwell hit the first pitch thrown to the Panthers for a home run for the second night, following the same result in Bandon a night earlier. Maxwell went 3-for-3 and scored three runs in the first game. Jorge Ochoa had two hits and two runs and Colton Maxwell had two hits and an RBI. Colton Maxwell had three RBIs in the second game for the Panthers, who erased a 5-2 deficit before putting the game away with an 11-run outburst in the fourth inning. Justin Jacobs had a double and two RBIs for the Panthers and Ochoa also drove in two runs. Garrett Litterell had two hits and scored four runs and Carter had three runs. Carter also came on in relief in the third inning and had five more strikeouts in his three innings pitched in the nightcap. The Panthers face North Lake in a league doubleheader Friday, moved up a day because of the funeral for Carter’s brother. Wildcats take two from Pirates: Glide beat Marshfield 151 and 11-3 in a nonleague baseball doubleheader at Glide. The Pirates weren’t able to sustain their momentum from their first league win Tuesday night over South Umpqua. They return to league play with a doubleheader at Sutherlin on Friday. The Wildcats jumped ahead early in the first game Wednesday with six runs in the first and scored at least two each of their four innings at the plate. Devin Freeman, Tanner Shaddy and Cory Finlay all hit doubles and pitcher Tylan Dubois had a triple. In the nightcap, Marshfield pulled within 5-3 with a run in the top of the sixth inning, but Glide put the game away with six runs in the bottom half of the inning. Anthony Ross and Drew James had doubles for Marshfield. Glide, ranked No. 2 in the Class 3A coaches poll, improved to 9-2 overall. Marshfield fell to 2-11. “Glide is really good,” Marshfield coach Scott Carpenter said.

Marshfield’s Hunter Drops makes his final throw in the javelin Tuesday afternoon during a track and field meet with other Far West League teams at North Bend.
Pre meet includes many top athletes BY JOHN GUNTHER The World
COOS BAY — Many of the top track and field athletes for Class 4A, as well as the smaller classifications, will be competing at Marshfield High School on Saturday when the focus is on individual efforts and honoring Coos Bay native Steve Prefontaine. The Prefontaine Rotary Invitational begins with field events at 10:30 a.m. and running events at 11. In all, 25 teams are participating this year, including every school from the South Coast but Reedsport and Siuslaw. The public also can get involved in a Masters Mile, which starts at 10:40. Registration will begin around 10 a.m. The meet wraps up shortly after 4 p.m. The meet includes the Class 4A girls leaders in six of the 17 events, as well as two boys who lead the state. The local favorites include North Bend sprinter and high jumper Wyatt Cunningham, Marshfield distance runner Shaylen Crook and multi-talented Hunter Drops of Marshfield, who is close to the state lead in both the pole vault and javelin. Newport will bring down several standouts, including the only girl who might be able to challenge the D’Arpino twins of North Valley in the sprints, 400-meter leader Rachel Vinjamuri. The Cubs’ Michael Carpi is among the state leaders in the 400, 800 and 300meter hurdles. Among the other girls, Sutherlin’s Olivia Gulliford is the Class 4A leader in the discus and should have a great battle in the shot put with Class 4A leader Kathryn Kaonis of Crook County.
North Bend’s Wyatt Cunningham clears 6-6 in the high jump to take the event for the Bulldogs Tuesday afternoon. He is the state leader in the event. Others to watch among the Class 4A athletes are the sprint relay teams for North Bend (boys) and Marshfield (girls), Marshfield triple jumper Adryana Chavez (the Class 4A leader), and boys high hurdlers Shaine Graham of Brookings-Harbor and Cam Lucero of North Bend, who rank second and third in the state. Also competing are a pair of Coquille athletes who lead Class 3A in events — Brandon Bowen in the shot put and Tristan Dixon in the pole vault. And there are another eight Class 2A leaders, including Myrtle Point’s Nicole Seals in the shot put. All day should feature close competitions.
In the boys 200, for example, the top six runners are separated by .19 seconds. South Umpqua’s Trevor Duffy joins Coquille’s Bowen to give the meet two people who have marks better than 50 feet in the shot put. Del Norte’s Chad Bell and Central Linn’s DiSean Hernandez both have surpassed the 21foot barrier in the long jump. Oakland’s Cora Gallop, the Class 2A leader, will push Marshfield’s Chavez in the triple jump while Coquille’s Darian Wilson and Crook County’s Laken Berlin both have a season best of 16 feet in the long jump. Admission is $3 for adults, $1 for students and $5 for families.

North Bend track star Cherise Kirkpatrick talks about her high school career and her future at Western Oregon University after signing her letter of intent Wednesday afternoon.
NORTH BEND — It isn’t hard for Cherise Kirkpatrick to come up with her most satisfying moment in track. Despite a torn meniscus and medial collateral ligament, the North Bend senior placed in the Class 4A state meet last year. She was a week away from knee surgery and still finished seventh in the high jump. Kirkpatrick had more pride in that accomplishment than anything else in her track career. At least until Wednesday. Kirkpatrick signed a letter of intent to compete in track and field at
Oregon Western University on Wednesday at Champions Hall in North Bend High School. “Today was probably my proudest moment,” Kirkpatrick said. “The fact that I get to continue my future in track and field makes me really happy.” Western Oregon was the first to contact Kirkpatrick, but not the only school to show interest. Around October, she talked to Adams State in Colorado, her coach Jake Smith’s alma mater. Then she checked out Southern Oregon but didn’t really like the school. Anchorage University and Montana State also showed interest. Still, it always came
back to Western Oregon. Western Oregon first showed interest last fall and Kirkpatrick took a visit to the school in January. She made a verbal commitment in March and made it official Wednesday. Kirkpatrick can list Western Oregon’s personal benefits with ease. “It’s close to home, it’s a good school, they have a good track program and I love the coaches,” she said. “I didn’t even talk to anyone else about scholarships. I was just like, ‘I’m coming and I’m competing.’” Kirkpatrick has only been at North Bend for two years. SEE KIRKPATRICK | B3
SOFTBALL Myrtle Point 13, Toledo 3, 6 innings: The Bobcats got their first win of the season, overcoming an early 3-0 deficit against the visiting Boomers. Marissa Dollarhyde had a pair of doubles and scored two runs for Myrtle Point. Naya Phillips had two hits and two RBIs and freshman Kerston Weekly also had two hits and an RBI. Kieri Smith added a two-run double. Lyndzi Robbins, meanwhile, pitched a one-hitter and Sayana Phillips did not allow a passed ball behind the plate. SEE RECAP | B3

Anaheim holds on for 4-3 win in playoff opener ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Ryan Getzlaf had a goal and an assist, Frederik Andersen made 32 saves to win his NHL playoff debut, and the Anaheim Ducks opened the postseason with a 4-3 victory over the Dallas Stars on Wednesday night. Getzlaf, Kyle Palmieri and Mathieu Perreault scored in a dominant first period for the top-seeded Ducks, who began their playoff run on a dead sprint. Anaheim led 4-0 midway through the second period before Dallas got rolling in its first playoff game since 2008. Captain Jamie Benn and Colton Sceviour had powerplay goals, and Tyler Seguin scored with 6:07 left to trim the Ducks’ lead to one. Anaheim hung on with a handful of big saves from
Andersen, a 24-year-old Danish rookie. “We knew they were going to push,” Palmieri said. “No team is going to go away, especially in the playoffs. We weathered the storm, and it’ll help us going forward.” Game 2 in the best-ofseven series is Friday. Anaheim is the Western Conference’s No. 1 seed for the first time after the best regular season in franchise history, setting new marks for victories (54), points (116) and goals (263) while winning its second straight Pacific Division title. The Ducks won their opener for the second straight year, but they lost in seven games to seventhseeded Detroit last spring. Dallas gained momentum for the rest of the series.
The Associated Press
Anaheim’s Mathieu Perreault, right, celebrates his goal against Dallas goalie Kari Lehtonen during the first period Wednesday. “The way we finished was how we want to play the full game,” said Seguin, who infamously scored just one goal in 22 playoff games for Boston last season. “I definitely liked
our no-quit attitude out there and performance.” Penguins 4, Blue Jackets 3: Brandon Sutter scored on a wrist shot from the left circle 8:18 into the

Sports KIRKPATRICK From Page B1 She went to Myrtle Point her freshman and sophomore years, but as an upperclassmen she pursued concurrent enrollment at Southwestern Oregon Community College. Since starting, Kirkpatrick has collected 20 college credits, nearly enough for a full year of college. Smith has taken her under his wing since before she made the move to become a Bulldog. Assistant coach Kevin Cunningham started giving Kirkpatrick extra guidance on the high jump — Kirkpatrick’s favorite event — when she was a freshman. Smith has made Kirkpatrick his aide at school this year and lauds her attitude. After just one year, her fellow Bulldogs made her a captain this season. Smith thinks it “just goes to show what kind of kid she is.”
BLAZERS From Page B1 Barton’s 3-pointer for Portland put the Blazers up 5437 midway through the second quarter and they went on to lead 68-52 at the half. Portland played its starters all 12 minutes apiece in the first half. Lopez was the only starter
Kirkpatrick is a track junky, through and through. “There’s no Friday night lights or anything like that. Track people compete in obscure locations with not a lot of fanfare. To do that you have to be somebody who really loves the sport and she does,” Smith said. Smith said that Kirkpatrick has participated in practically every event in both track and field. But as comfortable as Kirkpatrick is in a medley of events, when she starts with Western Oregon, she’ll be doing an event she’s never tried before; the heptathlon. With all her tools, Smith isn’t nervous with how she’ll be able to adapt. “She’s the type of athlete that doesn’t really have a weakness,” Smith said. “She’ll be pretty solid in every sport and should get some good heptathlon scores.” Kirkpatrick herself is more excited for the challenge than
anything else. Of the seven heptathlon events, she’s only worried about the 800 meters and the shot put, two events she’s pretty green at as of now. But the chance to compete in events she loves (high jump) or starting to love (javelin), makes her excited to be able to show her versatility. The rest of the events are the 200, high hurdles and long jump. “You don’t really get opportunities to do more than four, so it’ll be nice that I get to do that many,” Kirkpatrick said. Her journey to Monmouth didn’t come without adversity. Kirkpatrick has been bit by the injury bug a lot over the past three years. Since her sophomore year, Kirkpatrick has had surgery to fix a torn meniscus and she’s torn her MCL multiple times. It’s forced her to make sacrifices. “I didn’t play basketball
this year so I’d be ready for track,” Kirkpatrick said. Tuesday was North Bend’s senior night, the first of many steps Kirkpatrick has to make before starting at Western Oregon. Classes starts at the end of September in Monmouth with track workouts following the next month. Up until then, she’ll have to finish the high school season, compete with her West Coast Penguins club track team, and then she’ll do summer track up until September, when she’ll start training for the college regular season. Tuesday’s senior night was just as much a prologue as an ending for Kirkpatrick’s track career. “Last night was senior night for track so it means it’s my last home meet here,” Kirkpatrick said. “But today I signed and now I know I’ll have more home meets, just not here.”
who started the second half for the Blazers. Nicolas Batum, Wesley Matthews and Damian Lillard did not play again. The Clippers closed to within 74-73 in the third quarter after Crawford hit a driving layup, two 3-pointers and a free throw. Los Angeles went ahead 81-78 on Matt Barnes’ 3. Portland reclaimed the lead when Freeland’s basket with
just under 10 minutes left to make it 89-87. Crawford made a 3-pointer that put the Clippers in front 96-94, but Barton answered with his own 3 with 4:37 left. Victor Claver’s 3-pointer gave the Blazers a 106-100 lead and all but sealed the win with 1:58 to go. “It was good to end the season on a positive note,” Blazers
coach Terry Stotts said. “I was proud of the young guys in the second half, the fact that they struggled through a third quarter where the offense didn’t quite click and it was a close games. It was really good experience for them to play in a game, in a fourth quarter that mattered and going up against vets like Jamal Crawford and Willie Green.”
RECAP From Page B1 “We played really well,“ Myrtle Point coach Liz Andy said. “Everybody had good moments. “It was pretty cool.” Myrtle Point travels to Lost River for a league doubleheader Saturday. Red Devils sweep: Several Red Devils had huge nights at the plate as Coquille beat Gold Beach 10-5 and 22-8 on the road. Makala Edgar had a triple among four hits and scored three runs in the first game. Mckailey Landmark had three hits and Alaney Gallino scored three runs. In the second game, Gallino had five hits and Edgar had four hits and another triple. Katie Gurney had four hits. Josie Piper had three hits for the Panthers and Savanna Rucker, Heidi Hancock and Hailey Timeus had two each. Tori Howard picked up the win in the first game and Gurney had the victory in the nightcap.
BOYS GOLF Tigers place fourth: Bandon was fourth out of five teams in a tournament at Emerald Valley in Creswell on Wednesday. The Tigers shot a team score of 373, led by Shelby Bannister’s 90. Bandon coach Scott Millhouser said the course is the toughest the Tigers will play this year. Bandon was coming off a strong showing at Shadow Hills on Monday, when the Tigers placed second behind Oakridge with their best score of the season, a 369. Braden Fugate led the Tigers at Shadow Hills with an 82. Bandon finished just three shots in front of Gold Beach, which was led by Brennen Eilik’s 80. The Tigers and Panthers expect to battle for the district’s second state tournament berth next month. Oakridge, which also won at Emerald Valley and an earlier tournament at Bandon Crossings, is the team favorite.

Giants ink backup QB NEW YORK — A person familiar with the deal says quarterback Josh Freeman agreed to terms with the New York Giants. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced the move. Freeman was cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in October after a messy split. He signed with Minnesota four days later, but played just one game for the Vikings.

As part of the agreement, the new owners will keep the team in Milwaukee. Kohl announced the deal at the BMO Harris Bradley Center hours before the team was to play its final game of a dismal season.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka delivers in the seventh inning of the Yankees 3-0 shutout of the Chicago Cubs in Game 1 of an doubleheader at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday. In the two-hit shutout, Tanaka struck out ten batters and allowed one walk.
Yankees’ pitchers dominate Cubs THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Masahiro Tanaka and Michael Pineda pitched the New York Yankees to a 3-0, 2-0 sweep of the Chicago Cubs in a chilly day-nightdoubleheader Monday. In the Cubs’ first regular-season game at new Yankee Stadium, Tanaka (2-0) allowed two bunt hits in eight dominant innings and struck out 10 for his second straight start. Carlos Beltran homered in the first off Jason Hammel (2-1). Michael Pineda (2-1) had a clean hand in his first outing since he was spotted with a mysterious brown goo on his right palm last week against Boston. He allowed four hits in six innings to beat Travis Wood (0-2). Shawn Kelley and Adam Warren got saves for New York, which had not won by shutout twice in one day since April 9, 1987, against Kansas City, according to STATS. No team in the major leagues had done it since Minnesota swept Oakland on June 26, 1988. The Cubs had not been blanked twice on the same day since Larry Jackson and Ray Sadecki pitched complete games for St. Louis on June 27, 1962.
AMERICAN LEAGUE Orioles 2, Rays 0: Miguel Gonzalez (1-1) and two relievers combined on a six-hitter, and Baltimore capitalized on two infield singles by Adam Jones. Nick Markakis also had two hits for the Orioles, who outscored the Rays 101 in the rain-abbreviated, two-game series. Baltimore has won five of seven to reach .500 at 7-7. Indians 3, Tigers 2: Yan Gomes hit a two-run triple, and Zach McAllister (2-0) allowed one run and four hits in six innings. Royals 6, Astros 4, 11 innings: Mike Moustakas homered in the 11th to lift the Kansas City Royals over the Houston Astros. Moustakas has been off to a tough start this season and was hitting .098 before his solo shot to the seats in right field off Jerome Williams (0-1) to lead off the 11th.
The game marked the debut of touted Houston rookie George Springer, who had a single and a walk. The 24-year-old outfielder had 37 homers and 108 RBIs with 45 stolen bases combined in Double-A and Triple-A last year. He was off to a strong start in Triple-A this season, too, hitting .353 with three homers and nine RBIs. Rangers 3, Mariners 2: Leonys Martin had a game-winning RBI single in the ninth inning as the Texas Rangers scored two unearned runs in a two-out rally against Fernando Rodney (0-1), beating the Seattle Mariners in a game MLB that started as a bataces. Recap tle of Mariners ace Felix Hernandez struck out nine and had retired 10 in a row before Martin’s leadoff triple in the eighth ended the big right-hander’s night. Yu Darvish struck out eight in seven innings for the Rangers. Red Sox 6, White Sox 4, 14 innings: Jackie Bradley Jr. hit a two-run double off Chicago infielder Leury Garcia in the top of the 14th and the Boston Red Sox outlasted the White Sox in a game that lasted 5 hours and 17 minutes. With the score tied at 4 after 13 innings, the White Sox ran out of pitchers after Daniel Webb threw 59 pitches in three innings, so manager Robin Ventura turned to Garcia (0-1) to start the 14th. Garcia is the first White Sox position player to take the mound since Casper Wells pitched a scoreless inning last June. Garcia retired the first two batters, but then walked Daniel Nava and Jonathan Herrera, and Bradley followed with his big hit. Angels 5, Athletics 4, 12 innings: Chris Iannetta homered with two outs in the 12th inning against Drew Pomeranz, giving Los Angeles a victory over Oakland. Pomeranz (1-1) retired David Freese on a grounder to second base and Raul Ibanez on a foul pop to the catcher before Iannetta drove the next pitch to center field and just out of the reach of a
leaping Craig Gentry, ending Oakland’s four-game winning streak.
NATIONAL LEAGUE Reds 4, Pirates 0: Johnny Cueto pitched his third career shutout against the team that beat him in the playoffs, and Joey Votto hit a two-run homer that led the Cincinnati Reds over the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-0 Wednesday for their first winning series this season. Cueto (1-2) limited the Pirates to three hits and struck out a career-high 12 during his first shutout since 2011. Braves 1, Phillies 0: Julio Teheran (3-1) ) retired his first 12 batters and pitched a three-hitter for his first complete game in 38 career starts. Evan Gattis homered among a career-best four hits. Cliff Lee (2-2) struck out 13 and pitched around 11 hits in a complete game, throwing a careerhigh 128 pitches. Mets 5, Diamondbacks 2: Dillon Gee (1-0) retired his first 14 batters and allowed three hits in seven scoreless innings as the Mets completed a threegame sweep. Brewers 5, Cardinals 1: Wily Peralta (2-0) allowed one run and six hits in 6 1-3 innings as Milwaukee avoided a series sweep. Nationals 6, Marlins 3: Jayson Werth’s homer scored three unearned runs against Jose Fernandez as Washington overcome a 3-0 deficit. Two errors in the sixth inning by Marlins catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia helped the Nationals. Pinch-hitter Zach Walters broke a tie in the eighth inning against Mike Dunn (0-2) with his second career homer — and his second in as many nights. Padres 4, Rockies 2: Andrew Cashner pitched into the eighth inning and Chris Denorfia drove in two runs to lift the San Diego Padres over the Colorado Rockies. Giants 2, Dodgers 1: Pablo Sandoval singled in the go-ahead run in the seventh inning, lifting the San Francisco Giants to a victory over the rival Los Angeles Dodgers and into first place in the NL West.

FRIDAY, APRIL 18, 2014 Compare your current situation with your projected goals. Stop contemplating and start moving.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Health problems will prevail if you aren’t getting enough rest. Financial concerns or demanding family members will add to your frustration. Keep your temper under control. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Focus on your goals, but be careful not to spread yourself too thin.Timing and a steady pace will make a difference. Trying to take on too many responsibilities will be your undoing. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Stay out of office debates and keep your opinions to yourself. You will get a lot more done if you are able to ignore all the disgruntled and bitter people around you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Your energy level is low. Consider joining in some competitive games or sports to help boost your stamina. Show the people you love that they are a top priority in your life. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Don’t allow anyone to take advantage of you. Speak up and set your own rules. If you are assertive and you stand your ground, you will get the desired results.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — As much as you would like to help others, it’s not practical to donate money that you can ill afford to part with. Offer your time and services instead, and keep spending to a minimum. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — You have a lot of energy to burn. Do something physical and reap the health benefits. Participating in sports or other challenges will stimulate your mind as well as your body. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You may be at a crossroads in your life. By staying in the background, you will have the ability to listen and learn from people who can help alter your life. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Don’t forget to take a little personal time today. It’s great to be considerate and caring, but you could use a little pampering as well. Save your charitable efforts for another time. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Avoid arguments to reduce your frustration level. A partner may have set priorities that conflict with yours. Carry on and get your own projects out of the way first.
