Tall ships engage in first battle sails of the week The World
COOS BAY — Hollywood has embedded naval battles in the minds of the public on a grand scale. Giant frigates firing away at each other broadside are staples of movies like Master and Commander and Pirates of the Caribbean. The modern reality is a little bit different, as guests aboard the Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain found out Sunday. The tall ships, docked in Coos Bay for the week, are armed with 3-pound deck guns and smaller swivel guns that they incorporate into their educational programs. A cannon’s “poundage” refers to the weight of an iron ball cast at the diameter of its bore.
These cannons, of course, aren’t loaded with shot and shell — only blanks. The Hawaiian Chieftain, a ship custom built to new specifications in the 1980s, is the more heavily armed of the two, carrying two swivel guns and four deck guns. The Lady Washington, a historically-accurate replica, carries two deck guns and two swivel guns. To keep things “fair,” the Hawaiian Chieftain only uses its deck guns during battle sails, said Capt. John Morrison. From the get-go, the crew stressed safety first and foremost. “When there’s gunpowder on the deck, no smoking,” First Mate Patty McLaren lectured passengers after putting orange foam earplugs in her ears. Trading shots with the Lady Washington proved a challenge as it raced north on the bay.
GOP activists take on establishment The Associated Press
INSIDE
PORTLAND — A fight for the soul of the Republican Party is breaking out in a handful of Oregon state House races, where the business community and other establishment forces are battling figures from the party’s populist wing. The contested primaries are in districts that are all but certain to elect the GOP nominee in November, so the decisions won’t have much impact on the partisan makeup of the Legislature after the 2014 election. But the decisions of

Republicans in Pendleton and the mid-Willamette Valley could significantly shake up the House Republican caucus in Salem. House Democrats also have a handful of contested primaries, though none threaten to take out incumbents or substantially shift the party’s ideological balance.

Why don’t more women propose? Three-fourths of Americans say it’s OK, but only 5 percent do BY CONNIE CASS The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Steve Paska waited two weeks for Washington’s famously fickle cherry blossoms to emerge, then spent two hours searching for the perfect spot beneath the canopy of fluff. He lured his girlfriend there on the pretext of buying a painting of the blooms. Then he surprised her by dropping to one knee and proposing. She said “yes” so fast he forgot to pull out the ring. Go to any wedding celebration this nuptial season, whether in a
ballroom or backyard or church basement, and it’s a good bet you can trace the big day to a similar start, with different flourishes. If a man is marrying a woman somewhere in America, odds are that he proposed to her. That may seem obvious, but consider this: Three-fourths of Americans say it would be fine for the woman to do the proposing, in theory. In practice, only about 5 percent of those currently married say the woman proposed, and the figure is no higher among couples wed within the past 10 years. Attitudes actually seem to be

Acting as the ship’s sole gunner on the voyage, McLaren spent most of the voyage racing back and forth between cannons with a piece of slow-burning rope on the end of the short wooden pole. After each shot, the barrel has to be swabbed out and then loaded with a gunpowder charge that’s rammed home and primed through the vent at the cannon’s breach. In the midst of the smoke, the remaining crew darted from bow to stern, adjusting the sails in the midst of the increasingly heavy rain. Judging by the cheers from onlooking passengers at each echoing shot, that nasty weather was more than worth the chance to see the big guns in action.

COOS BAY — The group tasked with stacking the building blocks of a new waterfront and economic development organization is stuck figuring out where to start. On Friday, the work group met to discuss the proposed Bayfront Investment Corp.’s formation, its board of directors, open meetings and records, and public criticism. The work group is a subset of the Community Enhancement Plan work group, which approved the South Coast Community Foundation’s revised bylaws last week. Coos County Commissioner Bob Main, North Bend Mayor Rick Wetherell and City Administrator Terence O’Connor, Coos Bay Mayor Crystal Shoji and City Manager Rodger Craddock, and Oregon International Port of Coos Bay CEO David Koch and Port Commissioner Bob Garcia participated in the Bayfront discussion. The participants couldn’t decide whether Bayfront should be a nonprofit corporation modSCCF or an eled after intergovernmental agency. Koch said Bayfront’s mission differs from SCCF. “As I think about what this entity is going to do ... it’s not just serving grants to other entities to direct programs,” he said. “There are going to be some direct service programs, buying property, cleaning it up and redeveloping it. There may be some opportunity to spin off nonprofits or work with other nonprofits.” He said they could always launch it as an intergovernmental agency and transform it into a nonprofit down the road. “That’s asking for nothing but

trending the other way, an Associated Press-WE tv poll shows. Young adults are more likely than their elders to consider it “unacceptable” for a woman to do the asking. More than onethird of those under age 30 disapprove. While Paska, 26, believes female proposals are OK — after all, one of his sisters proposed to her boyfriend — he wanted to declare his love and dedication the traditional way. “I think if she’d gotten down SEE PROPOSAL | A8

Gov. Kitzhaber writes letter on oil train safety S TATE D I G E S T PORTLAND (AP) — Gov. John Kitzhaber is calling on the federal government to move faster to make trains transporting crude oil throughout the state safer. In a Friday letter to federal Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, Kitzhaber said he’s frustrated it’s taking too long to update tank car standards and institute other safety measures. The North Dakota oil boom has led to more oil-byrail shipments and a higher number of oil train accidents. Earlier this year, Kitzhaber ordered a top-to-bottom review of state rail safety and oil spill responsiveness.
Fire in national forest interrupts power YREKA, Calif. (AP) — A fire in the Klamath National Forest has interrupted power to communities downriver. The fire, which started Friday night and is burning on 17-20 acres, is located near the Sarah Totten Campground in the Klamath National Forest. It’s across from the mouth of the Scott River and on the south side of the Klamath River. Fire officials say power lines passing through the area of the fire have been deenergized. As a result, downriver communities have been without electricity since Sunday night.
Portland fire officials respond to 6 fires — (AP) PORTLAND Portland fire officials say they’ve responded to half a dozen fires set by an unknown suspect in the same neighborhood. Portland Fire & Rescue says the fires, set early Saturday morning in the Portsmouth neighborhood, included two house fires, two vehicle fires, one recycling bin fire, and one fire of an abandoned chair in a parking lot. There were also two additional acts of vandalism with rocks thrown at two car windshields in the same area. Officials say there were no reported injuries as a result of these incidents.

Utility repair costs hit $4.5M from storm EUGENE (AP) — The utilities serving the Eugene-Springfield metropolitan area say repair costs from February’s snow and ice storm topped $4.5 million. President Barack Obama last month declared four Oregon counties hard hit by winter storms as disaster areas. The declaration for Benton, Lane, Lincoln and Linn counties means federal money and assistance programs are available to the state and local governments. The Register Guard says EWEB spent an estimated $1.8 million for utility repairs. The Emerald People’s Utility District spent $1.5 million; Lane Electric Cooperative spent $669,000; and Springfield Utility Board spent at least $600,000. The utilities have estimated the costs from the storm as they’re seeking federal reimbursement of eligible costs.
Naked man hit by car killed in Portland
PORTLAND (AP) — Portland police say a naked man who was reportedly doing push-ups in the road was struck and killed by a car early Sunday. Officers responded after getting a report just after 4 a.m. that a naked man was running in traffic near North Columbia Boulevard and Portsmouth Avenue. A second report came in that the man was doing push-ups in road, and a third said he had been hit by a car. Police say the driver who hit the pedestrian was not impaired by alcohol or drugs.

Can health debate help the GOP? WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama asked for a national debate on health care, and he got his wish. The problem for the Democrats, and consequently for the president, is that the national debate is still going on. Technically called the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, sometimes referred to as the ACA and often described as Obamacare, the overhaul of the American health care system was signed into law almost exactly four years ago. And yet the debate rages on. Other issues in American life have persisted politically for more than four years — slavery, of course, monopolized the political debate for a third of a century, and Vietnam for a decade — but such endurance is rare. Overall,Americans disapprove of the 2010 act by a 54-to-43 margin, a range that in the Gallup poll has remained generally consistent since last fall. It is true that disapproval of the health care law varies substantially by party identity. Look carefully at those Gallup numbers and you will see that Republicans are as much as 17 times more likely to disapprove of the law than are Democrats. That is a stunning figure but,given the contemporary political atmosphere, not out of synch with the polarized national conversation. In ordinary times Democrats might actually take comfort from those findings. But Gallup also tells us that independents are as much as five times more likely to oppose the DAVID law as Democrats. That’s SHRIBMAN trouble. But it is not a surprise, Columnist and the Democrats have their talking points ready. They are saying, though not everybody is believing, that in this fall’s midterm congressional elections they can run on Obamacare, not run away from it. Here’s the argument, provided in an interview last week with Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the party chair: “Are Republicans really going to ask 8 million people to give back their insurance and to take their kids under 26 off their health care and to deny affordable coverage to people with pre-existing conditions? They’re obsessed with opposing the president, even if opposing the president hurts the middle class.” The importance of health care in November depends in some measure on the magnitude of two issues — the level of the law’s applicability and the level of the law’s opposition. The Gallup survey shows that two-thirds of Americans believe they are unaffected by the health care law, and the division between those who believe the law has hurt them (18 percent) and those who believe it has helped them (15 percent) is tiny. Though the Obama administration has highlighted the 8 million people who have signed up, the newly insured constitute only 4 percent of the country and, given established voter participation patterns, represent an even smaller part of the voters in a midterm election. Though these newly insured skew Democratic by a 54-24 margin, they are generally younger than the population overall and thus are far less likely to vote. Plus these factors: Democrats hope the opposition to the health law will wither away much the way the opposition to Social Security disappeared over time. The difference, however, is that virtually everyone paid into Social Security, giving almost all Americans a stake in the system and, eventually, benefits from the system, an advantage not replicated in the health law. Obama and his allies will portray the plan as a success, arguing that 15.6 percent of Americans now are uninsured, down from 18 percent a year ago. (Within March alone, according to Gallup, the rate of uninsured dropped more than a point.) True — but as recently as the beginning of the 2008 general election, when Obama was the Democratic nominee, the rate was even lower (14.4 percent). Team Obama is going to have to have an answer for that. In fact, the Democrats may continually have to provide health care answers, or a series of revolving answers. There is every indication that the Republicans who hope to ride into a Senate majority on the health care issue also hope to ride into the White House on it. Most of the likely presidential candidates have stated unequivocal opposition to the Obama health care bill. All this raises a vital strategic question for the Republicans: Might it actually be better for the GOP to fall just short of a Senate majority in November than to win a majority in the chamber? The answer may be yes. If they inch up against the Democrats but don’t actually seize Senate control,they’ll have little hope of overturning the Obama plan or, given the president’s certain veto of any repeal legislation, substantially weakening or defunding it. They will force Democratic senators who supported the legislation to squirm as they affirm their 2010 vote and leave the health care plan in place as a pinata: something they can bludgeon to their advantage in the 2016 primaries and the presidential general election. The Republicans can win by losing. And the Democrats can lose by winning. It’s a cynical outlook, to be sure. But it is perfectly suited to an age of cynicism.
Letters to the Editor Urging you to vote for Kudlac Shala McKenzie-Kudlac deserves our support and has earned our trust. Shala has handled a variety of cases and projects, ranging from estate planning, land use issues, real estate, contract litigation, family law and landlord/tenant problems, just to mention a few. Some of you may even know Shala as the city attorney for the city of Port Orford, and as assistant attorney for the city of Bandon, which positions she currently holds. She also holds the positions of assistant county counsel for Curry County,as well as legal counsel for the North Bend city/Coos-Curry housing authorities. In addition to all of these duties, she still makes time to be a member of the Foster Care Review Board, as well as serving as a volunteer on the Oregon Community Foundation. Needless to say, this all takes a very organized and well balanced person. Please join me in voting for Shala McKenzie-Kudlac as Circuit Court Judge, 15th Judicial District, Position 6. Sammie Arzie Coos Bay
Another voter for Beaman I fully support the honorable Judge Cynthia Beaman for reelection as Circuit Court Judge. I’ve seen Judge Beaman at work in the courtroom for the past 16 years as she has fulfilled duties as an attorney and then judge. I have always been impressed with her dedication and professionalism in both capacities.She is capable and extremely knowledgeable. I have appeared many times in court in front of Judge Beaman and have always found her to be fair and impartial. It’s clear that she takes her oath of office seriously. She works hard to get her job done right. Her service within the judicial system is clearly more than just a job; it is her vocation and passion. I have witnessed Judge Beaman’s compassion and concern for the community through her work on the bench.It is apparent to me that she cares about the people who appear before her. It is important for our judges to have such qualities. Judge Beaman serves the community as a volunteer as well. I’ve personally observed her dedication to the youth of this community. She spends countless
hours of her own personal time to provide opportunities for the kids in Curry County. Judge Beaman cares about the community. Judge Beaman cares about the people she serves. Judge Beaman is honest, fair, impartial, compassionate and professional. These are all qualities we should expect from our judges. Therefore, I hope you will join me in voting for the re-election of the honorable Judge Cynthia Beaman as our Circuit Court judge. Jeff Johnson Bookings
Could you turn up the sound a little? I just finished watching a very frustrating county commissioners meeting on TV. It was frustrating because there were people in the audience speaking with no microphones, so it was impossible to know what they were saying. There were also several instances of the commissioners not speakinto their ing directly microphones, so their comments couldn't be heard, either. This is not the first time this problem has come up. Since us county residents are paying for these meetings, its only fair that we can hear them. Harold Bailey North Bend
Tired of seeing panhandlers I don't know about the rest of you folks, but this panhandling in town has gotten out of control. It's time the city leadership dealt with it. I was at Fred Meyer a couple days ago and counted nine people with their hand out. Just in the immediate area. And it's the same song and dance all over the Bay Area now. Professional tramps who travel a circuit up and down the West Coast, complete with dog(s) of choice, looking for suckers to fleece. Every year, the same circus comes to town. While we want to be compassionate, the way to deal with this is to steer these travelers to the various soup kitchens and shelters and stop giving them handouts on the street corner. We need to set that into law. And we need to be quick about it. Because it is out of control. No more panhandling in the Bay Area. Danny H. Collins Charleston
Liberals quick to use racism label It is simply amazing how the liberals seem to always boil everything down to race. The latest, but I’m sure not the last, has been to take an old ranchers statements on race and somehow push it to every news show and paint the conservatives as all racist. But when you think about it, that’s all they have to play. Let’s face the facts, it’s not as if Obama has done much to lower the national debt, jobs, rebuilding our economy, and lets not forget his failed (no) foreign policy, or lack thereof. All the progressive liberals have going for them is to bring up the race card because they want to divide this nation, “not” bring together. Anyone who has ever heard Al Sharpton talk knows that racists are not always white. Every time the liberals feel threatened they always go to the race card. This worked so well in the past they can’t seem to get rid of this millstone. Look at what Obama has done for African Americans: Obama phones, food stamps, welfare and cheap talk. But when you think about it, it makes sense. Word has it that his “library” might even go to “Chicago” at the proposed cost of $200 million of “tax” payer money. I would have thought it would have done more for “his” people for him to have created jobs. But once again, it looks as though some race-baiting liberal will probably get elected again, by lying and playing the race card. After all, if you want votes from a certain group of people, the best way is to buy it with promises of more welfare, food stamps, Obama phones and the rest of the things that put them in power in the first place: lies and promises.

ORCCA food drive a success Oregon Coast Community Action wants to thank all who pitched in to make the annual City Clean Up Day and Food Drive a success! Thanks to all who donated 60 cases of food for a total of over 2,300 pounds! The food will be distributed by South Coast Food Share to at-risk families throughout the area.

Some welcome new residents In reply to: Robert Wilson’s letter of April 14 — “Californians go home” — If that title wasn’t so sad, it would be funny. Considering it was so poorly written, you never said what you contributed to the community as a whole, being a “native.” Here’s our take on people from other states coming to Coos Bay or Oregon, in general. People like Don Irvin, April 23, wrote that he came to Coos Bay 67 years ago and gave everything to this community, including jobs. After all this time he said he is still an outsider. Well, thank God for those who come to Oregon/Coos Bay, and especially those who retire here. They bring their retirement pay, they buy homes, they pay taxes, both state and property, and volunteer in various positions around the community. They give. They do not take out of the community. They may not be in the “local clique” but we find them to be friendly and welcoming. Their ideas are progressive and they want the best for the people and the area. Are you, Mr. Wilson, jealous because they do not want this community to stagnate and they are willing to roll up their sleeves and help make things better? Maybe more of our youth would settle here and not want to move away if they had the same opportunities here that they have in other places in the U.S.A. Aren’t we thankful that other states don’t say — Oregonians go home! Stop condemning those that contribute, open your eyes, welcome them, or roll up your own sleeves and help make this area better. And to you, Mr. Irvin, thank you for your service to this community. Frank and Donna Wait Coos Bay

Beach bully kicks sand in friend’s vacation plans DEAR ABBY: For the last few years my family has rented the same beach condo. My friend “John� and his family have joined us there on many occasions. When I asked him his vacation plans for this year, he informed me last night that he has rented the beach condo for the same weeks we have historically occupied it. I was floored. I think a m o r e appropriate DEAR approach would have been for him to have called me first and ex p re s s e d his interest in renting it, but he should not JEANNE PHILLIPS have rented the unit if it conflicted with our vacation plans. I understand the free marketplace—first-come, first-served — but I can’t help feeling he undercut me. —CONFUSED IN A TENT AT THE BEACH DEAR CONFUSED: Your feeling is 100 percent accurate. That weasel DID undercut you, and real friends don’t act that way. Now that you know what he’s capable of, contact the landlord and make a long-term deal in advance if you want that unit in the future. DEAR ABBY: I am a lonely 83-year-old woman. All I want is someone to love me, preferably a handsome, wealthy man who will spoil me. I have spent my entire life making other people happy, and now all I want is some happiness back. I mean, can’t an older woman get some loving, too? I have been told I’m charming. I have the laugh of an angel, a full head of blond/gray hair and a slim figure. I would like a man (preferably in his elderly years) who is lonely and needs some company. And also someone who wants to spend his savings on me. Abby, help me find my soul mate. — WAITING FOR “GOT-DOUGH� DEAR WAITING: Why do I suspect this letter may have been written by a group of sorority sisters after a few drinks?

My mother and I told her we would have a shower for her. She registered at a local store for baby gifts, let us start planning the shower, and then informed us that she would not be opening gifts at the party. My son has sided with her. He said he didn’t know her reason, but felt like it was no big deal. Why would she act that way? We think it’s peculiar. The shower has now been canceled at her request. — MYSTIFIED IN CALIFORNIA DEAR MYSTIFIED: Your daughter-in-law may have been trying to be considerate of any guests — possibly members of her family — whose gifts might not have been as expensive as those purchased or crafted by other guests. Or she may have felt self-conscious about being the center of attention. While I agree that one of the pleasures of attending a shower is seeing the expression of joy on the mother-to-be’s face as the presents are unwrapped, look at it this way: Because the shower is canceled, your problem is solved.

Nation Clamp snapped in circus accident NATIONAL D I G E S T PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Investigators looking into why eight circus acrobats plummeted to the ground during an aerial hair-hanging stunt have found that a clamp snapped, a public safety official said Monday. “We have identified a clamp that snapped that held them to the rafters, and it failed,� Providence Public Safety Commissioner Steven Pare told WPRO-AM a day after a support frame collapsed during the Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey circus. Three of the acrobats remained in critical condition Monday morning. Several performers on the ground also were injured. None of the injuries appear to be life-threatening, according to Stephen Payne, a spokesman for Feld Entertainment, the parent company of Ringling Bros. “They’ve used this act many times. Unfortunately this particular clamp failed. It snapped off. We have it, we’re analyzing it, we’re seeing why it happened to ensure it doesn’t happen in the future. That’s all part of our focus,� Pare told WPRO. The act is part of the “Legends� show, during which performers hang “like a human chandelier� using their hair. Investigators from the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration are probing the accident, along with local authorities.

A spokeswoman for Rhode Island Hospital said performers Dayana Costa, Julissa Segrera and Stefany Neves were in critical condition Monday morning. Viktoriya Medeiros and Viktorila Liakhova were listed in serious condition, while Samantha Pitard, Svitlana Balanicheva and Widny Nevas were listed in good condition. The names and conditions of three others injured in the
accident had not been released. The accident was reported about 45 minutes into the circus’ 11 a.m. Sunday performance at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. It was witnessed by an audience of about 3,900, many of them children. Payne said the metalframe apparatus from which the performers were hanging came free from the metal truss to which it was connected. The eight women fell 25 to 40 feet, landing on the dancer below. Roman Garcia, general manager of the Legends show, asked people to pray for the performers. “Everybody’s doing fine,
everybody’s at the hospital, everybody’s conscious, everybody’s doing pretty well,� he said at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center less than two hours after the accident. The hair-hanging stunt is described on the circus’ website as a “larger-thanlife act� featuring eight female performers. Payne said all the performers have been doing “some variation of this act for some time,� though he didn’t know how long. The current incarnation of the act began in January with the launch of the show, and performers have been doing it a dozen times a week since, he said.
Schools seek changes to healthier lunch rules ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — Becky Domokos-Bays of Alexandria City Public Schools has served her students whole-grain pasta 20 times. Each time, she said, they rejected it. Starting next school year, pasta and other grain products in schools will have to be whole-grain rich, or more than half whole grain. That includes rolls, biscuits, pizza crust, tortillas and even grits. The requirement is part of a government effort to make school lunches and breakfasts healthier. Championed by first lady Michelle Obama, the new standards have been phased in over the last two school years, with more changes coming in 2014. Some schools say the changes have been expensive and difficult to put in place, and school officials are asking Congress and the Agriculture Department to roll back some of the requirements. Their main concerns: finding enough whole grainrich foods that kids like, lowering sodium levels and keeping fruits and vegetables from ending up in the trash. In interviews, school nutrition directors across the country mostly agreed that healthy changes were needed in school lunches — long famous for daily servings of greasy fries and pizza. Kids have adapted easily to many
The Associated Press
Becky Domokos-Bays, the director of food and nutrition services at Alexandria City Public Schools, holds up a tray of food during lunch at the Patrick Henry Elementary School in Alexandria, Va. Starting next school year, pasta and other grain products in schools will have to be whole-grain rich, or more than half whole grain.
of the changes, are getting more variety in the lunch line and are eating healthier. But Domokos-Bays and other school nutrition directors say the standards were put in place too quickly as kids get used to new tastes and school lunch vendors rush to reformulate their foods. When kids don’t buy lunch, or throw it away, it costs the schools precious dollars. “The regulations are so prescriptive, so it’s difficult to manage not only the nutrition
side of your businesses but the business side of your business,� Domokos-Bays said. Some of the main challenges reported by school nutrition directors: —Whole grains. While many kids have adapted to whole grain rolls, breads and even pizza crusts, some schools are having problems with whole grain-rich pastas, which can cook differently. USDA’s Janey Thornton, a former school nutrition director, says the government is
working with the food industry to develop better pastas. Whole grains have also proved a hard sell for some popular regional items, like biscuits and grits in the South. Lyman Graham of the Roswell, New Mexico, school district says tortillas are one of the most popular foods in his area, but the whole wheat flour versions are “going in the trash.� —Sodium. Schools will have to lower the total sodium levels in school meals next school year and then will have to lower them even further by 2017. School lunch directors say the 2017 target — 640 milligrams total in an elementary school lunch and 740 milligrams in a high school lunch — isn’t feasible and say kids will reject the foods. USDA’s Thornton acknowledges the food industry isn’t there yet but encourages frustrated school lunch directors to “worry about today first before we imagine the worst down the road.� —Fruits and vegetables. The standards require every student to take a fruit or vegetable to create a balanced plate. The reaction among students has been mixed. “If the kids don’t eat the food, then all I have is healthy trash cans,� said Peggy Lawrence, director of nutrition at the Rockdale County Public Schools in Georgia.
Target’s Chairman and CEO out in wake of breach NEW YORK (AP) — Target’s massive data breach has now cost the company’s CEO his job. announced Target Monday that Chairman, President and CEO Gregg Steinhafel is out nearly five months after the retailer disclosed the breach, which has hurt its reputation among customers and has derailed its business. The nation’s third-largest retailer said Steinhafel, a 35year veteran of the company and CEO since 2008, has agreed to step down, effective immediately. He also resigned from the board of directors. The departure suggests the company is trying to start with a clean slate as it wrestles with the fallout from hackers’ theft of credit and debit card information on tens of millions of customers. The company’s sales, profit and stock price have all suffered since the breach was disclosed. “Ultimately, too much rained down on Gregg Steinhafel,� said Brian Sozzi, CEO and chief equities strategist at Belus Capital
Advisors. “There was no way he could escape the black vortex of news.� A company spokeswoman declined to give specifics on when the decision was reached. But in a statement issued Monday, the board said that that after extensive discussions with Steinhafel, they both “have decided it is the right time for new leadership at Target.�
The company’s stock fell more than 3 percent Monday morning. based in Target, Minneapolis, said Chief Financial Officer John Mulligan has been appointed interim president and CEO. Roxanne S. Austin, a member of Target’s board, has been named as interim nonexecutive chair of the board. Both will serve in

Pilot dies in plane crashes at air show FAIRFIELD, Calif. (AP) — A pilot who had thrilled audiences for decades with acrobatic stunts was killed when his vintage biplane crashed upside-down on a runway at a Northern California air show. Sunday’s tragedy brought to a quick halt the “Thunder Over Solano� show at Travis Air Force Base, which was attended by an estimated 100,000 spectators. No one else was injured. The Air Force identified the pilot as Edward Andreini, 77, of Half Moon Bay. Federal Aviation Administration records show he was the registered owner of the 1944 Stearman biplane, a World War II-era plane commonly used to train pilots.
Ex-NYPD cop sprayed anti-Semitic graffiti NEW YORK (AP) — A former New York City police officer was arrested on charges he spray-painted anti-Semitic profanities on cars and buildings in a mostBrooklyn Jewish ly neighborhood — including the front doors of a religious elementary school. Michael Setiawan was picked up before dawn Sunday after police received a 911 call on Saturday evening about the swastikas, and other anti-Semitic graffiti in Borough Park. The 36-year-old faces charges of criminal mischief and aggravated harassment as hate crimes.
Powerade drops ingredient NEW YORK (AP) — Cocaa is dropping Cola controversial ingredient from its Powerade sports drink, after a similar move by PepsiCo’s Gatorade last year. The ingredient, brominated vegetable oil, had been the target of a petition by a Mississippi teenager, who questioned why it was being used in a drink marketed toward health-conscious athletes. The petition on Change.org noted that the ingredient is linked to a flame retardant and is not approved for use in Japan or the European Union. In response to customer feedback, PepsiCo said last year it would drop the ingredient from Gatorade. At the time, Coca-Cola declined to say whether it would remove the ingredient from the two flavors of Powerade that contain it as well.

The high price of sitting down Health care. It’s on everyone’s mind these days, and for good reason. Between the soaring cost of health insurance premiums, increasing co-pays and skyrocketing deductibles, plus the outrageous cost of some medications — it’s enough to give you a heart attack. But lest you think there’s nothing you can do to keep y o u r family’s EVERYDAY health CHEAPSKATE care costs under control, I have good n ews. You can. You have t h e power. T h e best way Mary to cut Hunt m e d i ca l costs is to p re ve n t them in the first place. I am talking about lifestyle, small changes to save you money and improve your quality of life. How much money are we talking about? A recent study by the Credit Union National Association reveals that medical expenses are the leading contributor to credit-card debt, with low- to moderateincome households averaging $1,678 in credit-card debt annually, because of out-ofpocket medical expenses. Imagine how this number may grow as health care costs rise. Have you had enough? Ready to cut your medical costs? Awesome. We’ll do this together. Stand up. Sitting on our bottoms — at work, at school, at home, in a car, in a chair, on a sofa, in front of the television — has recently been linked to all kinds of health problems. In fact, according to a recent issue of Physical Activity & Health, sitting too many hours in a day is costly because it contributes to high blood pressure, increased blood sugar, a higher risk of blood clots and (gasp!) sluggish bowels. Health professionals are beginning to equate sitting to smoking in terms of harm to overall health. Make it easy: Identify a daily activity such as talking on the phone, texting or reading, that you will no longer participate in while seated. Do these things while standing. I love to knit and, you guessed it, I now stand and knit. It’s not bad. In fact, I’m quite enjoying this because I find I’m more alert and I make fewer mistakes. Drink up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Water. We already know this, right? Then why are up to 75 percent of Americans falling short of the daily amount recommended by the Institute of Medicine — 91 ounces for women and 125 ounces for men? Could it be that we’re depending on pricey sodas, juices, vitamin water, coffee and tea for hydration? Water is much better for us, and it’s practically free. According to WebMD.com: 1) Water helps maintain the balance of body fluids. 2) Water helps control calorie intake. 3) Water helps energize muscles. 4) Water helps keep skin looking good. 5) Water keeps kidneys healthy and kidney stones at bay. 6) Water keeps the bowels functioning properly. Make it easy: First commit to water as your beverage of choice. Then invest in a great water bottle like the one I have from Contingo. It’s easy to use, helps me keep track of my daily intake and it’s just the right size to not misplace. It’s made all the difference for me. Sleep more. Sleep, we are learning, plays a huge role good health. Sleep will curb inflammation — now being linked to heart disease, stroke, diabetes, arthritis and premature aging — and improve your memory. Just imagine all of the money being spent these days on those particular health issues that may well be simply slept away. Make it easy: Instead of (or in addition to) setting the alarm to wake up, set it to remind you to go to bed. Make it a non-negotiable to get at least seven hours of sleep a night.

World Fighting in Ukraine kills 4 troops, wounds 30
WORLD D I G E S T
SLOVYANSK, Ukraine (AP) — Ukrainian troops fought pitched gunbattles Monday with a pro-Russia militia occupying an eastern city, and the government sent an elite national guard unit to re-establish control over the southern port city of Odessa. The twin moves reflected an apparent escalation of efforts to bring both regions back under Kiev’s control. Any possible loss of Odessa in the west and parts of eastern Ukraine could leave the sprawling country landlocked, cut off entirely from the Black Sea. Russia has already annexed a significant part of Ukraine’s Black Sea coast in grabbing back the peninsula of Crimea. Associated Press reporters heard gunfire and multiple explosions Monday in and around Slovyansk, a city of 125,000 that has become the focus of the armed insurgency against the new interim government in Kiev. Interior Minister Arsen Avakov said on his agency’s website that pro-Russia forces numbering about 800 were deploying large-caliber weapons and mortars. His agency reported four officers
The goals of the proRussian insurgency are ostensibly geared toward pushing for broader powers of autonomy for the region, but some insurgents do favor separatism. In the last few weeks, antigovernment forces have stormed and seized government buildings and police stations in a dozen eastern Ukrainian cities. Authorities in Kiev — who blame Russia for backing the insurgents — have up to now been largely powerless to react. And since Russia has kept tens of thousands of troops along Ukraine’s eastern border.

Video of clash brings outcry from Israeli troops JERUSALEM (AP) — The reprimand of an Israeli soldier — who was caught on video cursing and pointing a cocked gun toward the head of a Palestinian teen — has triggered the biggest outpouring of frustration by Israeli soldiers in years about their service in the West Bank. Thousands posted messages of support on social media for the infantry soldier after the army said he apparently violated norms of behavior during a shoving match in Hebron, where several hundred radical Israeli settlers guarded by soldiers live in daily friction with tens of thousands of Palestinians. The protest campaign appeared largely aimed at the
army’s perceived failure to back the soldier, rather than any moral judgments about Israel’s 47-year military occupation of the West Bank. Some critics said the video reflected daily realities there and it was hypocritical to portray the confrontation, and the soldier’s behavior, as unusual. The video, shot about a week ago, begins when one of the teens stands close to the soldier and dares him in broken Hebrew to call the Israeli police. The teen then moves even closer. The soldier says: “Listen, you better not do this again, do you understand?” He shoves the teen who says in Arabic, “Lower your hand.” The soldier quickly raises and cocks his weapon a few
them. The soldier then curses and walks toward a Palestinian filming the scene. “Turn off the camera,” he shouts as his weapon points half-way to the ground. “I’ll put a bullet in your head.” There’s a break and the next scene shows the soldier walking away with the first Palestinian. The footage was shot by The Associated Press Youth Against Settlements, a In this image taken from video obtained from Youth Against group of Palestinian Settlements, a group of Palestinian activists, which has been authenti- activists, and aired last week cated based on its contents and other AP reporting, an Israeli soldier on Israel’s Channel 10 TV. points his gun at a Palestinian teen in the West Bank city of Hebron.

Missing plane’s search enters new phase SYDNEY (AP) — An international panel of experts will re-examine all data gathered in the nearly two-month hunt for the missing Malaysia jet to ensure search crews who have been scouring a desolate patch of ocean for the plane have been looking in the right place, officials said Monday. Senior officials from Malaysia, Australia and China met in the Australian capital to hash out the details of the next steps in the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, which will center around an expanded patch of seafloor in a remote area of the Indian Ocean off Western Australia.
Pistorius trial moves into 7th week PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) — The Oscar Pistorius murder trial resumed Monday after a two-week recess, with the defense team calling its fourth witness in an attempt to bolster the double-amputee athlete’s case that he killed his girlfriend by mistake last year. The trial moved into its seventh week with testimony from Johan Stander, the first person Pistorius says he phoned after he shot Reeva Steenkamp at his home in the early hours of Feb. 14, 2013. Stander lived at the same gated community as Pistorius. Pistorius has said that Stander and his daughter were the first people to arrive on the scene after the shooting.
2 dead, 30 missing after ships sinks ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greek authorities say at least two people have drowned and another 30 are missing after two boats crammed with immigrants trying to illegally enter the country sank in the eastern Aegean Sea. A coast guard said in a statement the vessels foundered off the island of Samos near the Turkish coast before dawn Monday. It said 36 people were rescued from the sea.

BAYFRONT Main: It has to be public, either way Continued from Page A1 political blowback,” O’Connor said. “In reality, this is just the mirror image of the South Coast Community Foundation. It provides another example of the intent (of) the community service fees, just that they’re fees, not public dollars. If something changes in the legislature somewhere, you’re saying we’ve created both of these entities to be the same because, in fact, these are not tax dollars.” SCCF’s creators were blasted for having crafted the plan behind closed doors before bringing it under public scrutiny. Now, the public is kicking Bayfront for the opposite reason. While SCCF’s plan was almost entirely formed before being touted at public meetings, Bayfront is only a vague idea. “Where’s the hypocrisy?” Koch said. “Somehow SCCF was ‘shoved down their throats,’ when in fact we’re going through the process now of getting input. On the other hand, now they say

Paska and his fiancee, Jessica Deegan, who both live in Arlington, Va., already had decided together that they wanted to marry, she said. Still, Deegan was thrilled that he made it official with a grand romantic gesture on April 10. “It’s kind of like the moment you imagine your whole life,” she said.“I’ve seen that in movies. I’ve read that in books. You don’t want to miss out on that moment.”

“What’s different about this than SCCF is there were three people already involved with that one setting it up,” Koch said. “This one, we’re going out and identifying those three people from scratch.” The work group touched on public access and transparency, a hot topic surrounding SCCF. If Bayfront becomes an intergovernmental agency,
Oregon’s open meetings and records law applies. If it’s a nonprofit, the work group suggested it follow SCCF’s lead, by putting open meetings and records in its bylaws. “It has to be public, either way,” Main said.

That traditional moment has survived radical changes in U.S. marriages over the past half-century. People are marrying older; brides are more likely to be already supporting themselves. It’s become commonplace to live together first, even to have children before marriage. Some men are proposing to men and women to women, now that one-third of U.S. states allow gay marriage. But the boy-asks-girl proposal still reigns, updated to a public art form in Facebook and YouTube videos that feature flash mobs or scavenger hunts or proposals while skydiving or swimming with dolphins. “Destination” proposals are trending, too, for men who want a California beach or the Eiffel Tower as the setting. There are even “proposal planners” who can help arrange flowers, musicians and a videographer. Ellie Pitts, a planner who works in Dallas
for The Yes Girls, said the group has handled more than 350 proposals around the country and abroad, nearly all by men. A few clients were lesbians. Only one so far was a woman asking a man — a boyfriend whose proposal she had turned down previously. “I think it probably takes a woman with a lot of guts to be able to do it,” said Pitts, who is newly engaged herself, to a man who did the asking. “At least in my experience with my girlfriends, women tend to be a little more ready to get engaged and move forward than men are, so asking the question before he asks might tend to backfire.” A woman who proposes also risks criticism for her boldness, said Katherine Parkin, an associate professor of history at Monmouth University in New Jersey. Parkin researched the folk tradition that claimed women could propose only during a
leap year. She found that the idea triggered mockery every four years for much of the 20th century. Postcards, ads and articles portrayed women who would propose as desperate, aggressive and unattractive. The leap year joke has faded, she said, but the stigma lingers. “I don’t see much changing to challenge that notion, to say a regular woman, a good woman, could propose,” Parkin said, although she notes that a few celebrities, such as singer Britney Spears, have done so in the public eye. The Rev. Joel Stafford of Patton, Missouri, sees nothing wrong with women taking the lead, the way his future wife did more than 40 years ago. “It just got to the point where she said,‘Why don’t we get married?’ and I said, ‘Of course,” Stafford recalled. “I would have eventually built up the courage to do it myself. But she didn’t wait.”

we’re not developing Bayfront thoroughly. “This is democracy in action, whether people recognize it or not.” Shoji favors Bayfront as an intergovernmental agency. “Sometimes I just wish we could talk to other government agencies and come up with something, rather than being in a situation ... with to created (nonprofits) accomplish things, then they take on a life of their own,” she said. “It really bothers me. Our city oftentimes doesn’t feel like we have any control. We’re funding something we don’t have any control over. I’d like this to be directly accountable to our city, rather than being another organization spinning off and we’re responsible for it.” A lot of front-end work goes into setting up a nonprofit, Koch said. “There’s some short-term advantages to an IGA and some long-term advantages to a nonprofit corporation,” Garcia said. The participants did agree Bayfront needs a board of directors made up of elected leaders from the four enterprise zone sponsors, as well as three at-large directors who have a stake in the organization’s service area.

Round two Coos County commissioners approved their SCCF membership at a special Friday meeting. The commissioners also approved the bylaws, three initial directors and appointed Commissioner John Sweet as the county representative on the SCCF board. The Coos Bay City Council will reconsider becoming a member of the South Coast Community Foundation at its 7 p.m. Tuesday meeting. The council will also vote to ratify SCCF's bylaws, three initial directors and begin the process of appointing one person to serve on the SCCF board as the city's representative. Since the Oregon International Port of Coos Bay and North Bend City Council already approved their SCCF membership in March, both entities now need to appoint a representative to serve on the SCCF board of directors. The North Bend City Council will likely appoint its representative, ratify the revised bylaws and reconfirm the city’s membership in SCCF at its May 13 meeting. The Port plans to do the same at its May 15 meeting. Those interested in serving on the SCCF board need to submit letters of interest and a statement of qualifications by 5 p.m. May 12. You can hand-deliver them to the Port office, 125 Central Ave., Suite 300 in Coos Bay. You can also either submit the application through fax (541-2691475), email (portcoos@portofcoosbay.com) or mail (Oregon International Port of Coos Bay, Attn: SCCF Board Selection Committee, P.O.

Incumbents face challenges Continued from Page A1 strayed from party orthodoxy. The division is also present, to varying degrees, in a handful of other GOP districts where the incumbent isn’t seeking re-election due to retirement or a run for higher office. “He’s voted with the Democrats on some major issues like Obamacare and giving driver’s licenses to illegal aliens,” said David Darnell, an electrician from Hubbard and Marion County GOP chairman, who is challenging Gilliam with the help of a big influx of $100,000 from Loren Parks and Stimson Lumber, two of the biggest funders of conservative candidates and causes in Oregon. Gilliam, like a majority of legislative Republicans, voted to create a health insurance exchange, which became Cover Oregon, rather than allow the federal government to create one under President Barack Obama’s health care law. He’s defended the vote, saying he viewed it as the conservative choice to have the state run it. He also worked on a bill granting driving privileges to people who can’t prove they’re legally in the U.S., saying it would make roads safer and boost the nursery industry, the primary economic driver in his district. After Parks bankrolled an effort to collect signatures to put the driving issue before voters, Gilliam unsuccessfully tried to change the description of the measure that appears on the ballot. “I’m glad to be a Republican,” Gilliam said. “It’s the philosophy that’s part of my foundation and how I approach being a representative. But I will never be a party goon who just votes the way the party does. The party’s philosophy informs me, but my district comes first.” Establishment donors have come to Gilliam’s aid, helping fill his coffers with $150,000 in cash since Parks gave Darnell’s campaign

$75,000 on March 18. They include political action committees for PacificCorp, Portland General Electric, Nike and the nursery industry, along with banking, insurance and health care interests. Thompson drew a primary challenge from Michael Nearman, the Polk County Republican chairman, after Thompson came out in favor of a potential ballot measure that would legalize same-sex marriage in Oregon. Nearly all of Nearman’s $33,000 in campaign contributions has come from two social conservative groups, Oregon Family Council and Oregon Right to Life. “I’m a very practical, pragmatic, calm person,” Thompson said. “I’m not prone to bomb throwing or anything like that, and that’s raised the ire of some people. I’m supposed to be standing up screaming my head off, and I just don’t do that. I’m a tactician.” Nearman did not return a call from The Associated Press. Another of the most closely watched primaries doesn’t feature an incumbent. The race pits talk-radio host Bill Post against business owner Barbara Jensen to represent a district anchored in Keizer. Business, health care and other establishment interests have lined up behind Jensen, while Post has secured big financial support from groups representing gun owners and social conservatives. In Eastern Oregon, one candidate gave back a $30,000 contribution from Parks. Greg Barreto told the East Oregonian that it had become a distraction and “the opposition wouldn’t let it go.” He’s running against John Turner, who has support from current and former Eastern Oregon legislators as well as health care interests and public-employee unions. The most crowded primary is in a Portland district by represented now Democratic Rep. Jules Bailey, is leaving the who Legislature to run for a position on the Multnomah County Commission. Six Democrats are vying for the party’s nomination. No Republicans have signed up to run in November.

Oregon State fires hoops coach Robinson BY STEVE GRESS Corvallis Gazette-Times CORVALLIS — The Craig Robinson era is over at Oregon State. The school has fired Robinson after six years as men’s basketball coach. “I want to thank Coach Robinson and his family for their contributions to Oregon State University,” OSU athletic director Bob De Carolis said in a statement. “This was a difficult decision, but after further evaluation, I believe it is in the best interests of our student-athletes, our basketball program and our university.” Former player Roberto Nelson took to Twitter to say: “Either way this is all weird
timing. Coach rob is the man! He’s made me a better person n I loved the 5 years with him. He will be a success” Robinson posted a career record of 94105 in his six seasons at Oregon State. The Beavers went 16-16 this season and lost in the first round of the third-tier College Basketball Invitational. Fans and boosters voiced their concern about the direction of the program, and athletic director Bob De Carolis offered a letter of support for the coach in late March. “Coach Robinson and I have met multiple times in the past two weeks, and he has presented me with a plan that will move the Oregon State men’s basketball program forward to achieve the goals that this university supports,’ the
letter said. “Our goals in every sport are to win a conference title; to play in NCAA postseason events; to compete with character and integrity; and to help guide our student-athletes to graduate and succeed in life. “I’m looking forward to watching Coach Robinson continue to build our program. He is a man of great character and someone who represents Oregon State University with integrity. I ask for your continued support of Beaver basketball.” While the Beavers did go 16-16, they have lost nearly all their scoring punch. Seniors Roberto Nelson, Devon Collier and Angus Brandt have used their eligibility. Junior Eric Moreland declared for the NBA draft. Freshman point guard Hallice Cooke decided
to transfer and junior Challe Barton left school. Robinson was hired in April 2008 and took over a program that went 0-18 in the Pac-10 Conference. He guided the Beavers to the CBI title in his first season as the Beavers finished 18-18. Robinson had three years left on his contract and will be owed close to $4 million. The job won’t be all that attractive with so much production gone. One possible candidate, according to Nelson’s tweet, is former assistant coach David Grace, who went to UCLA prior to last season. “Just heard @CoachDavidGrace is in the running. That would be a steal the guys respect him and he's a great coach and even better person.”
Bulldogs take title at meet THE WORLD

Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota throws a pass as head coach Mark Helfrich watches in the background during the Ducks’ spring game Saturday.
Mariota is sharp in Oregon spring game EUGENE (AP) — Marcus Mariota was sharp in his limited appearance in the Oregon spring game on Saturday, throwing a pair of first-quarter touchdown passes to lead the Ducks green team to a 27-7 victory against the grey team. Mariota, a possible 2014 Heisman Trophy candidate who returned to Oregon for his junior season instead of turning pro this winter, Inside completed 6Defense looks of-7 passes for strong at OSU 100 yards and Page B2 played in the first three series for the green team. He also rushed for 23 yards on five carries. “It was a lot of fun,” Mariota said. “It was a good foundation for next fall. There were some good things to take out of it.” None more so than the play of Mariota, who is 23-3 as a twoyear starter and coming off a season in which he accounted for 4,380 yards of offense, 40 touchdowns and an Alamo Bowl victo-
ry against Texas. “I thought he did a very nice job,” second-year Oregon coach Mark Helfrich said. “Marcus has been outstanding.” Mariota’s one incompletion Saturday was a throwaway after rolling out of the pocket to avoid a sack. Two plays later he connected with running back Thomas Tyner on a 22-yard touchdown pass for a 7-0 lead with 3:22 to play in the first quarter. Tyner, a sophomore who rushed for 711 yards and nine touchdowns last season, finished with 58 yards on 10 carries and also had two catches for 26 yards. Mariota put the green team up 14-0 on their next possession with a 45-yard strike to receiver Devon Allen with 1:15 to play in the quarter. Allen scored again in the final seconds of the game on a 49-yard TD reception from Damion Hobbs to make it 27-7. “There were a lot of guys who played well today,” Mariota said. “Devon Allen came up huge today.
As we progress, we want to get better and better. This is the standard now. We have to keep improving.” Jeff Lockie, who is in an ongoing battle with fellow sophomore Jake Rodrigues for the backup quarterback job, put the green team up 21-0 with a 41-yard pass off a fleaflicker to receiver Austin Daich midway through the third quarter. Lockie finished 7-for-12 passing for 121 yards and the TD. Rodrigues was 7 of 18 for 66 yards and an interception. “Meh,” Helfrich said to laughter when asked to assess the play of his backup QBs. “I thought a couple of times they absolutely forced it and that’s human nature when trying to win the job with one throw, and that’s the quickest, fastest way to lose it. Those guys are good players and they did a lot of good things during the spring and they wanted to go out and make it happen.” The grey team finally got on the board late in the fourth on a 20-
yard pass from quarterback Taylor Alie to receiver Darren Carrington. “I thought we were a little bit sluggish today,” Helfrich said. “But overall, we got a lot better through (spring practices). I’m really pleased with where we are.” Senior receiver Johnathan Loyd, a point guard on the nationally ranked men’s basketball team the last four years, suited up with the football team for the first time and had one catch for four yards and one carry for a four-yard loss. He also saw time as a returner on special teams. “Johnny’s done a nice job,” Helfrich said. “There’s a few layers of rust that you’re knocking off after not playing football. But just a great attitude and a fun guy to be around.” Freshman linebacker Juwaan Williams led both teams with nine tackles for the grey team, and there were five turnovers total — three fumble recoveries by the Grey team and two interceptions by the green team.
Hamlin wins with late pass at Talladega TALLADEGA, Ala. (AP) — Denny Hamlin started his fulltime career at Joe Gibbs Racing with an upset victory in an exhibition race at Daytona. Over the years, he added three more wins in races that didn’t count, including a sweep this season in the buildup to the Daytona 500. But when it came to the restrictor-plate races that paid points, Hamlin came up empty time and again. Until now. Hamlin, who opened the season with two exhibition victories only to finish second in the Daytona 500, was again sitting second in the closing laps Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway. But he won a drag race with leader Kevin Harvick on a restart with two laps remaining, and was out front when NASCAR froze the field because of debris from an accident. Hamlin let out a deep sigh when the yellow flag waved. “Superspeedway win,” he said on his radio. “With points! With points!” “I think I’ve gotten better. I’ve come close. When you drive as aggressive as I drove early in my

Denny Hamlin celebrates in Victory Lane after winning the Aaron’s 499 race at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday. career on superspeedways, you’re going to have a huge risk, huge reward,” he said after the win. “I was either wrecking or finishing in the top three every single superspeedway race and was wrecking
most of the time. I think this way of driving and the way I’m doing things now kind of lends itself to being a little bit more consistent on these type of race tracks, and really you learn from the guys that
are good at it.” Hamlin became the eighth winner in 10 races this season as drivers jockey to grab the 16 spots available in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. A victory conceivably gives a driver an automatic berth, and Joe Gibbs Racing now has both Hamlin and Kyle Busch eligible for the Chase. “I wasn’t ever worried, but you get a little bit more panicked when it’s, ‘Win a race and you’re in Chase,’ “ he said. “You see all these guys logging wins, wins, wins, and the next thing you know they’re running out of Chase spots. Now we can be a little bit more relaxed.” The win came at the track where Hamlin made a brief return last year — he ran just 23 laps before turning his car over to Brian Vickers — after missing four races with a broken back. Hamlin’s return to the car briefly built some momentum for the No. 11 team, but as his back continued to ache, the season fell apart in late summer and it took until the season finale for Hamlin to score his first win of the year. He also missed the Chase for the first time in his career. SEE NASCAR | B4
North Bend’s boys won the annual Dick Baker Invitational at Gladstone on Saturday, combining success in the running and field events to beat 12 other schools. North Bend got wins by Wyatt Cunningham in both the high jump and 200 meters. Cunningham also teamed with Matt Woods, Marcus Hardman and Drew Matthews to win the 4x100 relay. Woods won the 100 meters for North Bend, while Drae Stark took the high hurdles. The Bulldogs also won two other field events, with Josh Kimble taking the discus and Luke Lucero the pole vault, with teammate Alex Backman second. North Bend’s girls finished second behind Cleveland of Portland. The Bulldogs got one win, by McKenzie Edwards, who took the 300-meter hurdles in 46.81 seconds, a big personal best that moves her up to No. 2 in Class 4A this spring. Rotary Pass Grants Invitational: Coquille’s Brandon Bowen had the best mark of any South Coast athletes in the big meet when he won the shot put with a new best of 52 feet, 10 inches. Competing against mostly bigger schools, Bowen improved by almost 2 feet and retook the lead in Class 3A from Cascade Christian’s Aaron Cesaro, who also was in the field Saturday. Marshfield also had a winner in the meet, with Adryana Chavez taking the girls triple jump. Chavez also teamed with Isabel Groth, Hailee Woolsey and Brittany Cook to place second in the 4x100-meter relay. The only other South Coast winner in the varsity portion of the meet was Brookings-Harbor’s Ronnie Manley, who won the javelin. Marshfield’s Hunter Drops was second in both that event and the pole vault, where he cleared a new best 14 feet, 9 inches. In the frosh/soph portion of the meet, Siuslaw’s girls had a pair of double-winners and finished just behind South Medford in the race for the team title. Celie Mans won both the 1,500 and 3,000 for the Vikings, while Mikaela Siegel took both hurdles races. Coquille’s Darian Wilson won the frosh/soph javelin and also took fourth in the varsity long jump. Marshfield got wins in the frosh/soph portion of the meet by Justin Holman in the 300-meter hurdles and by the 4x100 relay team of Tyler Mengler, Rylee Trendell, James Miranda and Matt McAllister. Jesuit Relays: Siuslaw’s Mack Marbas showed he will be among the favorites in his quest to repeat as Class 4A champion in the 1,500 meters when he clocked a personal best 3:57.98 in the meet at Portland on Friday. The time was a new best by more than 3 seconds, though Marbas didn’t place in the top eight in an amazing race that featured Summit’s Matthew Maton winning in 3:49.38, the fastest time by a high school runner in the United States this spring.
BOYS TENNIS North Bend 3, Grants Pass 3: The host Bulldogs won the top three singles matches Saturday. Stewart Lyons, playing singles for the first time all year because his doubles partner James Jordan was competing in a track meet at Gladstone, won his match in three sets, taking the third-set tiebreaker 7-0.

San Antonio’s Manu Ginobili is fouled by Dallas defender Wayne Ellington during the second half Sunday. San Antonio won 119-96.
Spurs rout Mavericks in Game 7 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN ANTONIO — Faced with the possibility of having a second straight season end with a Game 7 loss, the San Antonio Spurs played with emotion and let Tony Parker have some fun. Parker scored 32 points and the San Antonio led by as many as 31 on its way to a 119-96 victory over the Dallas Mavericks, closing out a stressful firstround series Sunday in seven games. The finale featured Tim Duncan diving into Dallas’ bench to save a ball and the Spurs’ reserves continually on their feet to celebrate baskets. But no one had as much fun or hit the floor more than Parker. The All-Star point guard was 11-for 19-from the field and 10-for-13 on free throws as Dallas was unable to keep him from attacking the lane, despite a series of hard fouls. “I just knew that I had to be aggressive if we wanted to have a chance to win the game because of the strategy that the Mavericks chose,” Parker said. “They just dared me to score.” Manu Ginobili scored 20 points, Danny Green added 16 points and Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard had 15 points apiece for San Antonio. Dirk Nowitzki had 22 points and nine rebounds to lead Dallas. Last season ended for the Spurs with a Game 7 loss in the NBA Finals against the Miami Heat. Facing a much earlier

end, San Antonio rode a raucous home crowd and overwhelmed Dallas. San Antonio advances to face the fifth-seeded Portland Trail Blazers, who beat Houston in six game. The series opens Tuesday in San Antonio. The Spurs got off to a quick start as they had done at home all series, but the Mavericks were unable to respond as they did in winning Game 2 on the road. “We gave ourselves a chance but today we got hit by a tidal wave early,” Dallas coach Rick Carlisle said. “They had their best game today and we just weren’t able to do quite enough to stay in it early. “It’s hard when you get hit with an onslaught early the way the guys did.” Nets 104, Raptors 103: Paul Pierce blocked Kyle Lowry’s shot from the lane on the final play of the game, and Brooklyn held off Toronto in Game 7 on Sunday to advance to the second round of the playoffs. The Nets will begin the conference semifinals at Miami on Tuesday. Leading by one point, Brooklyn used its final timeout after failing to inbound the ball. On the second opportunity, Shaun Livingston tried a lob pass to Pierce, but Terrence Ross got a hand on the ball and then knocked it off Pierce and out of bounds for a turnover. Toronto used a timeout and gave the ball to Lowry, whose driving shot was blocked by Pierce as time expired.

Derby winner looks ahead to Preakness LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Art Sherman has never had a big operation or wealthy clients who infused cash and horses into his stable. But the 77-year-old trainer can now say he won the Kentucky Derby. A day after California 3 Chrome raced to a 1 ⁄4-length victory as the 5-2 favorite in the Derby, Sherman and his star horse received a stream of visitors at Churchill Downs. “It’s pretty cool, I can tell you,” he said Sunday. “Beating all the big boys, and maybe they had their doubts that this horse wasn’t a runner, but when you run against him you find out. He’s the real McCoy, this one.” Now the oldest trainer to win the Derby and his horse are headed to Baltimore for the Preakness in two weeks, the next step on the Triple Crown trail. It will be Sherman’s first trip to Maryland since 1959, when he was a jockey at the old Bowie Race Course. He rode some races at Laurel during his 23 years in the saddle, but has never visited Pimlico. Sherman plans to keep California Chrome at Churchill Downs before sending him to Baltimore,
possibly on May 12. “Five days at Pimlico would be perfect for me,” said Sherman, who will briefly return to his Southern California base, where he trains 20 horses. “That way I wouldn’t have to do much with him. Just school him, stand him in the gate and let him get familiarized with the surroundings.” California Chrome pulled away down the stretch for a dominant win the 140th Kentucky Derby. Taking charge at the top of the lane, California Chrome and jockey Victor Espinoza made a decisive move and quickly sprinted clear. They
finished the 1 ⁄ 4 miles in 2:03.66. Long shot Commanding Curve rallied for second, with Danza third. Wicked Strong was fourth. California Chrome appeared to bounce out of the 19-horse Derby in good order, leaving just a handful of grain in his feed tub after the race. Jockey Victor Espinoza said he eased the colt over the final 70 yards. “He said he didn’t ask him for too much thinking about saving something for the next one, for the Preakness,” Sherman said, adding that his colt is “peaking now. He’s full of himself.”
Sherman typically likes to give his horses plenty of time off between races, but California Chrome’s owners Steve Coburn and Perry Martin are thinking big and talking bigger. They’re not shy about saying their colt has the talent to win the Triple Crown. “I told people this colt will go down in history,” said Coburn, the more talkative of the partners. “When he wins the Triple Crown, he will be the first California-bred to ever win a Triple Crown. That’s where we’re going.” Of course, California Chrome will run in the Preakness with a target on him, the competition ripe to try and knock off the Derby champ. Already other horses are lining up to take him on. Commanding Curve, the Derby runner-up, and seventh-place finisher Ride On Curlin could show up for the Preakness, which has a maximum field of 14. The possible new shooters include Pablo Del Monte, whose owners decided not to run in the Derby; Federico Tesio winner K id Cruz; Illinois Derby winner Dynamic Impact; Bayern, trained by Bob Baffert; and Social Inclusion, who ran third in the Wood Memorial.

CORVALLIS — Sure, the Oregon State football team was missing three starters on the offensive line and had a young group of receivers all trying to make a name for themselves, but the spring belonged to the Beavers’ defense. And on Saturday before a smattering of fans who showed up to watch the Spring Football Showcase in Reser Stadium, the defense stood out once again. “The defense should be way ahead,” coach Mike Riley said after the little more than two-hour workout. “We’re about three offensive linemen starters short of being able to play and that’s been a big, big factor.” Still, the defense has played well. The players swarmed to the ball and made tackles in space. Senior safety, and one of four captains, Ryan Murphy said OSU came to camp with a chip on its shoulder and more as a unit. “I think that we did what we had to do,” senior defensive end Dylan Wynn said of the spring. “I wouldn’t say there is a winner or loser, in that regard. We have a lot of guys on offense that are recovering from some injuries. ... I feel like as a defense we really came together this offseason and we’re doing really good and it’s only upwards and onwards.” There’s no doubt the Beavers will have a strong group of linebackers, led by Michael Doctor and D.J. Alexander. But toss in Jabral Johnson, Caleb Saulo, Rommel Mageo, Darrell Songy, etc., and this group could be one of the best in the conference for starters. “We’ve got six (linebackers) who all played last year which is a rare thing to see in college so, I think it’s good,” senior quarterback and captain Sean Mannion said of the offense getting tested this spring. “We have a really tough defense and ultimately we want to be good against tough defenses.”
The offense scored just once in the scrimmage portion of the workout, that coming on a two-yard run by Damien Haskins. Two other touchdowns came on a punt return from Victor Bolden and a kickoff return from Terron Ward. “Any time we can limit the offense’s scores, that’s a positive,” Murphy said. “That’s what we go in every down, every play, even when we step in the meeting room, that’s our motto is just not to let the offense score and it makes the game easier, makes it more fun.” There were a few offensive players who had some strong showings on Saturday. Haskins rushed for 66 yards on 15 carries and Chris Brown had 34 yards on six touches. “That kid ran hard,” Mannion said of Haskins. “Chris Brown had some awesome runs, too. I think those are two guys who maybe don’t get as much attention but I think this is kind of a good platform for them to kind of step out and get a lot of reps. And Chris and Damien did an awesome job running the ball.” Hunter Jarmon led the receivers with three catches for 41 yards. “He was just out there playing ball it looked like,” Mannion said. “It was like he was playing in the front yard. He’s a real athletic guy, a guy who has been getting better day by day and I think if he has a great offseason I think he’ll be a big contributor for us.” Getting healthy and finding depth on the offensive line and getting the receivers up to speed are two areas Riley said will be key in fall camp. While the defense may have had the upper hand, that doesn’t mean it was by a large margin. “They’ve come together a long way,” Wynn said of the offense. “I mean it’s difficult when you have a lot of key players out. But they work and their willingness to learn, they’ve given us great looks and we just kind of get each other better and better.”
Timbers get first win PORTLAND (AP) — The Portland Timbers scored in the opening minute and the last minute to earn their first victory of the season. Maximiliano Urruti got the deciding goal in stoppage time and the Timbers defeated D.C. United 3-2 on Saturday night. “This is the kind of win that really catapults a team,” Portland coach Caleb Porter said. Futty Danso also scored for the Timbers, who were winless for their first eight matches of the season for the team’s longest span without a victory since 2012. The streak was concerning for a team that went all the way to the Western Conference final last season. But Urruti came off the bench to snap it with a rebound from just inside the box as United goalkeeper Bill Hamid tumbled to the rainsoaked turf. There was four minutes of stoppage time at the end of the game. Urruti said the gamewinner came off his knee. “It’s three points, but sometimes it feels like more, and I think this is one that feels like more,” Porter said. “I think they’ll play freer, more confident. I think we’ll continue to get better and better. We’ve been playing well, but I think sometimes when you feel that weight of that pressure because you’re not getting the results, you get frustrated. This will definitely unlock us.”
Portland was still buzzing about Damian Lillard’s buzzer-beating 3-pointer against the Houston Rockets on Friday night that sent the Trail Blazers into the secondround of the NBA playoffs for the first time in 14 years. “Maybe a little Blazer magic rubbed off on us,” Porter said. The loss snapped a fivematch undefeated string for United, which pulled into a 2-all tie with an own goal in the 78th minute. Portland struck first in the opening minute, when Gaston Fernandez maneuvered around Hamid and found the net just 34 seconds into the game. It was the fastest goal for the team since Portland joined Major League Soccer. Fernandez, who came to the Timbers earlier this year, leads the team with four goals. Davy Arnaud scored the equalizer for United in the 21st minute. His shot from far out appeared to deflect off a Portland player for an arching curl that was impossible for goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts to stop. Danso put the Timbers back in front with a goal off a corner kick in the 38th minute. It was the defender’s first goal for Portland since 2011. The own goal that tied it appeared to come off Danso after a header by United defender Cristian in a tangle in front of the net as the field was pounded by rain.
Thorns earn tie on road THE WORLD The Portland Thorns remained unbeaten for the season by not allowing a shot on goal in the second half in a 1-1 tie against the Western New York Flash on Saturday. Western New York (1-1-1) scored in the 39th minute on a free kick by Sonia Bermudez.
Portland (2-0-2) got the equalizing goal four minutes later when Jessica McDonald scored her third goal in two matches. McDonald scored on a rebound after Flash goalkeeper Lydia Williams mishandled a cross by Sarah Huffman. Portland hosts Seattle Reign FC on Saturday.

Sports Mayweather wins by decision THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS VEGAS— Marcos Maidana did everything but beat Floyd Mayweather Jr. on Saturday night, taking him 12 tough rounds before losing a majority decision. Mayweather remained unbeaten, but not by much. Maidana swarmed all over him from the opening bell and gave him perhaps his toughest fight in a 16year professional career. In the end, though, Mayweather got the win — just as he did in his previous 45 fights. He retained his welterweight title by winning 117-111 on one scorecard and 116-112 on another. A third judge had it even at 114-114.

San Francisco’s Brandon Crawford hits a two-run home run against the Atlanta Braves during the eighth inning Sunday.
Crawford’s homers lift Giants to win THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ATLANTA — Brandon Crawford homered twice, and the San Francisco Giants beat Atlanta 4-1 Sunday to complete a three-game sweep that extended the Braves’ losing streak to six — t h e i r longest NL s i n c e dropping Recap e i g h t straight in May 2012. Madison Bumgarner (3-3) allowed one unearned run and three hits in six innings, striking out nine as the Giants won their fifth in a row. Santiago Casilla pitched the ninth for his first save. Alex Wood (2-5) lost his fourth straight start, giving up two runs and seven hits in five innings. San Francisco has homered in 11 straight games for the first time since Sept. 23,
2010, to April 3, 2011, according to STATS. Marlins 5, Dodgers 4: Jeff Baker hit a winning double off the wall against Jamey Wright (2-2) with two outs in the ninth. Right fielder Yasiel Puig retreated and made a leaping try for an acrobatic catch but slammed against the fence, and the ball deflected off it and hit him in the face. Puig collapsed to his stomach and was slow to rise; he passed a concussion test and Los Angeles said he is day to day. Giancarlo Stanton homered twice and drove in three runs for Miami, giving him the NL leads with 10 home runs and 36 RBIs. Mets 5, Rockies 1: Dillon Gee (3-1) allowed six hits in six innings, extending his scoreless streak to a careerbest 16 innings as New York avoided a four-game sweep. Gee is 13-6 with a 2.66 ERA since last May 30.
Phillies 1, Nationals 0: Roberto Hernandez (2-1) allowed four hits in 7 1-3 innings. Jimmy Rollins hit a oneout triple in the first and scored on Chase Utley’s single off Gio Gonzalez (3-2), who gave up four hits and struck out seven in 7 1-3 innings. Reds 4, Brewers 3, 10 innings: Chris Heisey scored from first on Todd Frazier’s 10th-inning double into the left-field corner off Tyler Thornburgh (3-1). Cincinnati took three of four against Milwaukee, which is still a big league-best 21-11. Padres 4, Arizona 3: Cameron Maybin reached base after an overturned umpire’s call, then scored on Yonder Alonso’s slow grounder in the ninth off Oliver Perez (0-1) as San Diego stopped a four-game losing streak. Maybin started the win-
ning rally with a chopper to second and was initially called out before the call was overturned on a video review. Cardinals 5, Cubs 4: Yadier Molina drove in two runs with a two-out single in the ninth inning and the Cardinals snapped out of an offensive funk with a victory over the Cubs. The defending National League champions had lost four of five to fall a game below .500. The Cardinals scored all their runs with two outs.
INTERLEAGUE Blue Jays 7, Pirates 2: Colby Rasmus hit a grand slam and Melky Cabrera added a two-run homer. Toronto jumped ahead 6-1 after wasting a 5-3, ninthinning edge in the series opener and a 5-0, fourthinning advantage Saturday night.
baseball team after being suspended following a shoplifting incident, the school confirmed Sunday. The Heisman Trophy winner was issued a civil citation and entered a program that required 20 hours of community service. The 20-year-old twosport star is the closer on the baseball team and missed the three-game series against Minnesota this weekend. He was issued the citation last Tuesday after he walked out of a supermarket without paying for $32 worth of crab legs and crawfish. Baseball coach Mike Martin conferred with football coach Jimbo Fisher and decided to suspend Winston until he completed the community service.

BRIDGE Emily Oster, an economist with a B.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard, said, “Adhering to budgeting rules shouldn’t trump good decision-making.” Adhering to bridge adages shouldn’t trump good trump-employment. This week, let’s look at various uses of a trump suit. First, though, in today’s deal, what should North respond after South opens two spades, showing a respectable sixcard suit and 6-10 high-card points? With an apparent misfit, there might be an impulse to bid three notrump. But that is unlikely to make. It is
safer to bid four spades. North should hope for five trump tricks and his five winners, or, if South has a side-suit winner, four spade and six side-suit tricks. Then, how should South plan the play in four spades after West leads the diamond queen? The full deal suggests that South is doomed to lose two spades, one diamond and one club. But maybe he can take 10 tricks. Declarer wins with dummy’s diamond king and plays a spade to his king. When it wins, he continues with the spade queen, discarding a club from the dummy. East’s best defense is to duck smoothly, because if South plays a third trump, he goes down. However, let’s suppose that East takes the second trump and returns his remaining diamond. Now declarer should cash dummy’s heart ace, ruff a heart in his hand, and cash the spade jack. When West pitches, South twice crosses to dummy with a club and ruffs two more hearts to take two high spades, one heart, two diamonds, two clubs and those three heart ruffs. This way of taking trump tricks is called an elopement.

TUESDAY, MAY 6, 2014 Wrap up all old business so you can begin to prepare for new endeavors in the year ahead. It would be wise to keep your intentions a secret. Once all the pieces are in place, you should have no problem getting things done. Strive for independence and a minimum of outside interference.

You can make great progress by promoting what you have to offer. Speak your mind in order to gain support. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Your health may become troublesome today. Be vigilant so that minor ailments don’t worsen. Financial dealings will prove profitable. Take care of personal paperwork and legal matters. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Avoid being overbearing today.
