Foundation for the last two years, when the agency announced a $150 million gift from the Fred W. Fields Fund, the largest gift OCF has ever received. Fields, a longtime wood products executive, insisted the funds be used to support education and the arts. He died in December 2011. Meanwhile, Coos Art Museum board member Kathleen Zappelli was working with Sunset Middle School teachers and the Bay Area Artists Association to bring three art classes to 500 students last school year. The kids studied light
and shadow, proportion and color. OCF staff toured schools statewide last year, looking for those that met their criteria for the Studio to School program. “They found out every school in the state was underserved in the arts,” Coos Art Museum executive director Steven Broocks said. “But the most underserved of all were middle schools, particularly in rural locations. Sunset School is exemplary of the sort of site they were looking to help.” OCF reps wanted projects “ripe for expansion,” schools that prima-
rily served low income, rural or culturally diverse communities, and school partnerships with local arts organizations. Sunset, and 17 other schools, were a perfect fit. Earlier this month, the museum announced it had received $70,000 a year for three years, with the possibility of $35,000 a year for two years after, for Studio to School. “Art and theater ... are really lacking right now,” said Kathy Sizemore, the program’s new education outreach director. “They SEE SUNSET | A8

COOS BAY — Mark McKelvey, chair of the Coos County Democrats, calls it a “unique opportunity.” The Coos County Democrats will be hosting Frank Dixon, the chair of the Democratic Party of Oregon, at the Seven Devils Brewery on Friday, June 27, from 6-7 p.m. The public is invited to stop by the business, at 247 S. Second St. in Coos Bay, regardless of political affiliation. However, McKelvey believes it will be most beneficial for the county’s registered Democrats, who comprise a fairly wide political spectrum. “It really does create some interesting and fruitful discussion,” he said. “The Coos County Democratic Party includes a lot of different people and perspectives, this would be a great opportunity for all of them to spend some time with the state party chair.” A veteran Infantry Unit Commander and an attorney of consumer law, Dixon has been a member of the Democratic National Committee since 2007. He was elected in 2013 to serve on the executive committee of the Association of State Democratic Parties, and is now serving his first term as chair of the Democratic Party of Oregon. He previously served three terms as first vice-chair.

Trying to avoid ‘mission creep’ BY JULIE PACE The Associated Press

BY JEFF BARNARD The Associated Press GRANTS PASS— When a fire filled the Cascade Range’s rugged canyons in southwestern Oregon with smoke in 2011, firefighters started thinking an unmanned aircraft might help them get a look beneath the cover that a conventional scout plane could not. The state’s Department of Forestry will get the chance this summer to use a small remotecontrolled helicopter equipped with video, infrared cameras and a GPS locator to get a better look in tight smoky places before incident commanders send in fire crews.

“You are always looking for improved visibility of your fire,” said department fire prevention specialist Brian Ballou. “It just cuts down on the unknowns.” Covered by a federal grant, the off-the-shelf Century model G30 cost about $1,800. The cost will total about $5,000 once it is outfitted it with video and infrared cameras, and GPS, said Tyson Shultz, a department stewardship forester assembling the craft and getting qualified to fly it. It is only cleared by the Federal Aviation Administration to fly 400 above the ground, and the current gas tanks only allow it to be in the air for 30 minutes, though that can
be extended with more. At just 5 feet long, the helicopter is too small to take the place of manned aircraft that produce infrared maps, and drop water and fire retardant. The hope is that it will fill a very specific niche in the constant demand for more and better information on a wildfire by providing easy access to an overhead view of places manned aircraft cannot go, Ballou said. With privacy concerns dampening the enthusiasm over drones, Oregon is ahead of the curve in actually buying its own aircraft. in agencies Firefighting Washington and Montana have

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama, in charting a new phase of American military engagement in Iraq, pledges that his war-weary country will not be “dragged back” into a lengthy conflict or become ensnarled in “mission creep.” But recent U.S. military history is full of warning signs about the difficulty of keeping even a limited mission from expanding and extending. The prospect that this latest mission in Iraq could follow that pattern is particularly risky for Obama, given that he has staked so much of his legacy on having brought America’s long war there to a close. Already some of the White House’s closest allies worry that Obama’s plan to send in 300 special operations forces to train the Iraqi military could be the first step in pulling the U.S. back into Iraq’s violent sectarian fight. “I think that you have to be care-
not gone much beyond looking at the issue. Cal Fire took advantage of a drone operated by the California National Guard on last summer’s massive Rim fire outside Yosemite, but has no plans to get its own. Alaska used one on a fire this year that the University of Alaska Fairbanks flies as part of the FAA’s evaluation of how to integrate unmanned aircraft into U.S. airspace. The National Institute of Standards and Technology has been using drones to gather data to feed into wildfire behavior computer models.

Public Point Myrtle Schools will now be providing free breakfast and lunch to all students, regardless of their parents’ earnings, through the USDA’s Eligibility Community Option. Nearly one out of every 10 children in America lives in a household that struggles to put food on the table, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Previously, families had to fill out and return forms to qualify for the meals program, and the majority — up to 70 percent of Myrtle Point students — qualified for either free or reduced-price meals. Some children did not quality for meal assistance due to their parents earning above the stated income level. This spring, the Myrtle Point School District entered into the national program known as Community Eligibility Option and will be waiving meal fees to all children, regardless of their family’s earnings.

Opinion theworldlink.com/news/opinion
Obama inflicts child invasion It isn’t that the barbarians are at the gate. The barbarians control the gate. I don’t know what else to call a president and attorney general who have opened the U.S. border to literally tens of thousands of “children” — some described as “sexually active” teens, some even suspected of ties to gangs. This not only breaks laws, it breaks trust. Opening the border this way also opens the most outrageous front to date in what increasingly looks like a kind of war aimed at “fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” And the people’s elected representatives do nothing. Children are usually just children, but when 130,000 of them are expected to storm the border in the coming year, they more closely resemble an advancing column, a kind of foreign legion of child-mercenaries raised abroad with cynical promises of booty in the form of cradle-to-grave taxpayer charity. But who will fight “children”? This is the audacity of this latest Obama “crisis:” Trojan horse as “humanitarian crisis.” For the literary set, call it “Camp of the Saintlets,” a twist on the prophetic “Camp of the Saints,” the 1973 novel by French author Jean Raspail envisioning an DIANA apocalyptic “invasion” of WEST Europe by successive boatloads of Third World Columnist nationals, which is today old news out of Spain, Italy and other nations. Of course, there is an undeniable genius to this form of border attack. All “the kids” from the rest of the world (do you really think Central America is the end?) have to do is serve as pitiful proxies of the assault. Once vanquished by pangs of conscience, however false, we’ll support them forever. We’ll have to. Have you taken a look at your local police department’s massive and bristling military hardware lately? Just shut up and watch as this newfangled children’s crusade turns our border, the concept of nationhood itself, into dust. Welcome to Obamaland. Of course, even the 17-year-old gangbangers among the youngsters aren’t the masterminds or generals. Like American citizens, they are pawns, dupes, lured by promises which Washington may indeed extract from Us, the People. “Go to America with your child, you won’t be turned away,” one Guatemalan mother told a radio station in the Rio Grande Valley. She is right. Come one, come all. Once they are over the increasingly irrelevant line, Obama officials welcome the invading junior armies, shepherding them straight into an enfolding and enlarging federal safety net from which they may never have to emerge. These are just the newest wards of a brave new state that bears no resemblance to the republic as defined by those antique documents kept under glass in the dim light of the National Archives. Meanwhile, “the kids” have hit the jackpot — that jackpot of socialist programs that separates today’s “new Americans” from our forefathers. Not so long ago, immigrants came for liberty and opportunity, not taxsupported handouts. We are witnessing the betrayal of that nation of liberty and opportunity because there are so few in power with the courage to lawfully oppose it — not just rail about it all as a mere columnist. Meanwhile, American citizens are footing the bill. Living costs aside, Attorney General Eric Holder has announced that the Obama administration — i.e., We, the Taxpayers — will be providing attorneys for the legions of “unaccompanied minors.” Holder’s nonspecific language is telling: “We’re taking a historic step to ... protect the rights of the most vulnerable members of society,” he said. Historic step is right — Legal Aid for the world. He continued: “How we treat those in need ... goes to the core of who we are as a nation.” OK, so who are we, Mr. Attorney General, as a “nation”? The Western Hemisphere? Once upon a time, the U.S. staged the Berlin Airlift, mounting an astounding 200,000 flights in one year to keep Sovietblockaded Berlin supplied with fuel and foodstuffs. Today, a more modest Central American Airlift would do to return these runaways to their families. One thing at a time, though. How about calling out the National Guard? It would even be of some comfort if someone in Congress went to the floor and told peoples of Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and the rest to stay the hell home. So long as all of the government remains complicit or silent, this is nothing less than an unopposed invasion — an unopposed war, in other words, even if waged by the most unconventional means and by the most unlikely and unarmed “soldiers.” Worst of all, though, it is a war that is being encouraged, if not led, by our own president while no one with all of the appropriate Constitutional powers vested in him is doing anything to stop him. For love of country, impeach Obama now. Diana West’s new book is “American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on Our Nation’s Character” from St. Martin’s Press.
Letters to the Editor Cut spending and lower gas tax Now this is just silly; our Fourth District Congressman Peter DeFazio is suggesting a bill to remove the gasoline tax at the pump stations (paid directly by the consumer) and attach it instead to the “oil companies,” whomever those may be. Oh, like this is going to help. Does he not understand that if such a bill were to be passed and such a tax shift were to occur that the oil companies would only pass the increased costs on down to us, the consumer, and the taxes will still be paid by the consumer, indirectly, instead? Of course he know this, he's not stupid. So why do it at all? To shift blame and foster anger with the oil companies? Of course. But why? Let me make another suggestion, one that Mr. DeFazio is actually being paid by us, his constituents, to make: Figure out ways to reduce the amount of taxes needed by government in the first place. Maybe if government can learn to spend our tax dollars more wisely (and more frugally) the gasoline taxes could be lowered again and the consumers will actually see a increase in their monthly spending budget without having to wage “battle” with the oil companies. Just a thought. Pete Stingley Ash Valley
Enforce immigration laws More facts on the undocumented (illegal aliens): According to the Oregon Department of Corrections,
they made up 7.7 percent (that’s 1,133 prisoners) of the Oregon prison population as of May 1. The cost to incarcerate these illegals in Oregon amounts to $36,011, $498 per year. This does not take into account court costs, legal services (court appointed), and victim assistance costs. Their crimes are as follows: 18.27 percent sex abuse, 15.53 percent rape, 15.44 percent drug offenses, 12.89 percent homicide, 9.27 percent assault, 8.21 percent sodomy. When people have no problem breaking our immigration laws, what makes you believe they will abide by laws at all? It’s time our government enforced all laws equally. Steven Wilson Coquille
FOX News is not a joke Your political cartoon is rather offensive to me, having the cafeteria worker make such a ridiculous statement about FOX News, which happens to be the only news channel that actually has news the other channels are to afraid to report on. You never hear the biggest percent of the news on the other channels that might be a tiny bit negative to liberals or their causes, which is why people that don’t watch FOX News are so uninformed — the low, or as I feel, the one-sided informed voters. I laugh at people that say bad things about FOX News and yet have never watched it, only repeat what they have heard someone else say about FOX. I actually had someone tell me, “If I want to hear the news, I’ll watch MSNBC,” I could
hardly keep from laughing in her face. She prefers to watch the lowest rated/watched channel for her news, so funny! And yes, I have watched MSNBC and actually can’t believe they get advertisers to waste their money advertising on that station. I have to force myself to watch it as much as I do, so I know what they are saying, and getting a few laughs while I’m at it! Claudia Craig Charleston
Water, water everywhere ... I’m sure we aren’t the only family looking for a more resilient water source. Last winter showed us how it feels to live on stored water for four months, and it was an experience I’d prefer not to repeat. Ironically, our well is the least dependable when it’s wet outside. In the winter, rain is coming from the sky but hasn’t hit the water table yet and we end up doing laundry in town. I’ve heard stories from enough friends and neighbors to know that we aren’t facing this conundrum alone. This has been a beautiful year for spending time in the garden, but we’re already anticipating how the lack of rainfall will affect our water supply this fall and winter. We have decided to tackle the installation of a rainwater catchment system off of our metal garage roof. After crunching the numbers, we’ve found that for every inch of rain on a 1,000-square-foot catchment area, 600 gallons of water are collected. The official average annual precipitation in Myrtle Point is 55.6 inches, so over the course of the year, a
1,000-square-foot roof would catch over 33,000 gallons. Of course it needs to be filtered, and there are storage complications, but I feel giddy just imagining even half of that water when our well is dry. I’ve read books and spent too much time on the Internet researching the next steps we will take. Not all of the available information is consistent or regionally pertinent. I can’t help but wonder if there are other people in our community who have been wise enough to have already installed a system of their own, or who are in the process of currently designing one.

Their war, not ours As the Islamic warriors of ISIS rolled down the road from Mosul, John McCain was an echo of French Premier Paul Reynaud, when word reached Paris that Rommel had broken through in the Ardennes: “We are now facing an existential threat to the security of the United States of America,” said McCain. But, nothing that happens in Mesopotamia is going to threaten the existence of the United States. As for the terrorist threat from ISIS, for us it is neither greater nor less than it was a week ago. The existential threat here is to Iraq. Its survival as one nation is now in question, with the possibility it could be torn apart in a civil and sectarian war. But this is preeminently Iraq’s problem, not ours. And if Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, his 900,000-man army, and Shia militia cannot defend Baghdad from a few thousand Islamist warriors, America is under no obligation to do it for them. Maliki told us to go home three years ago. We did. And before we plunge back into that misbegotten war, let us consider what the real threats are — to America. The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria consists of fanatics who seek to carve a caliphate out of territory they now control from Aleppo in Syria to 60 miles north of Baghdad. Yet they have halted before
Baghdad. And among the reasons is that Iraq’s Shia majority is not going to allow Sunni zealots to capture their cities, smash their shrines, PAT and murder BUCHANAN their fellow Columnist Shia. will They fight, as the Iraqi army did not. Secondly, ISIS has as allies in the north and west of Iraq Sunnis who detest Maliki and wish to be rid of him. But these Sunni are not demanding a Taliban regime to abolish smoking and drinking. Nor are they fighting to cut off the heads of their Shia countrymen. If ISIS goes beyond the liberation of the Sunni triangle to trying to take over all of Iraq, they will lose many Sunni allies and find themselves facing Iraq’s Shia majority, backed up by Iranian forces, virtually alone. But while the Iraqi army and Shia militia may well hold Baghdad, it is hard to see how Maliki can soon reconquer the Sunni provinces. For the Sunnis want no part of him or his regime. Nor does Maliki seem capable of taking back Kirkuk, which the Kurds seized in the chaos as a step toward independence. What should America do? Take a hard look at our entire Middle East policy.
Consider. We are now providing weapons to the Free Syrian Army to oust Bashar Assad. “Assad must go!” blared Barack Obama in one of his many ignored ultimata. But should Assad fall, the result will be the persecution of the Syrian Christians, a massacre of the Alawites, and a possible takeover of the country by the alQaida-linked al-Nusra Front and ISIS. Is any of that in America’s interests? Vladimir Putin lately raised a valid question: Why, in Syria, are the Americans on the same side as the people who took down the twin towers? Indeed, why are we? And who is fighting al-Qaida and ISIS in Syria, battling those McCain calls an “existential threat” to American security? Bashar Assad. Hezbollah. Iran. Russia. Tehran has reportedly volunteered to work with us in providing military aid to prop up the Maliki regime and keep ISIS out of Baghdad. If we regard the survival of the Maliki regime to be in our national interests, why would we not green-light the Iranians to do this? When Hitler turned on his partner Stalin, the United States rushed military aid to save the monster whom FDR and Truman took to calling “Good Old Joe” and “Uncle Joe” at Tehran, Yalta
and Potsdam. Is the Ayatollah somehow worse than Stalin? Yet, consider, too, how our allies in the Gulf and Middle East have behaved in Syria. The Turks, clamoring for the overthrow of Assad, looked the other way as jihadists moved into Syria. The Gulf states and Saudis have reportedly sent money and military aid to the extremists. Are the Turks and Gulf Arabs aiding these jihadists in the belief they will not turn on them, if and when Assad and Maliki fall? Do they think that by feeding this tiger ISIS, it will eat them last? We may be entering the early stages of a sectarian war between Sunni and Shia across the Middle East. The ISIS claim of having executed 1,700 captured Shia soldiers in Iraq is surely intended to ignite one. If it happens, this war could spread to Lebanon, Jordan and down into the Gulf states where Shia outnumber Sunnis in Bahrain and in the oil-producing provinces of the Saudi northeast. Does the Middle East today — Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya, Lebanon — look like what we were promised by George Bush and his neocon advisers when they were beating the drums for a U.S. invasion of Iraq?

Love of woman’s life can be only a part-time passion DEAR ABBY: I fell in love with a boy when I was 12, deeply in love. We met at our county fair. We grew up together and have remained friends for 30 years. He married and had children, as did I. I am now divorced, but he’s still married. Recently our friendship has grown into something more. He wants our relationship to continue, but he’s afraid to leave his DEAR w i f e because of the kids. They have b e e n together for 20 years. What do I do? He’s the love of my life. Any JEANNE I have PHILLIPS time with him is better than none. It’s not that I don’t know I deserve better, but he is unhappy, and I am miserable without him. What do I do? — PRISONER OF PASSION IN VIRGINIA DEAR PRISONER: What you do depends upon your strength of character and what you want out of life. If you want to spend the foreseeable future as this man’s “side dish,” then continue as you have been, a “prisoner of passion” with not much common sense. If you would like to have a stable life and find a man who will make you No. 1 in his life, then you will have to call a halt to this affair and go through a period of withdrawal — the same as people have to do with any addiction. It may not be pleasant, but I recommend it. DEAR ABBY: I’m turning 75 soon, and enjoying retirement, good health and a comfortable lifestyle, which is why I have arranged a “Celebration of My Life — So Far.” I’m excited about it and eagerly anticipating more than 60 guests for cocktails and a sit-down dinner at a nearby hotel. It’s not uncommon these days for a celebration of life to be held after someone dies. However, I prefer to have mine BEFORE I leave this Earth so I can celebrate along with my loved ones. I want to be there, especially since I’m the one who’s paying for it! What do you think of my idea? Would you enjoy partaking in such a special event? — THINKING AHEAD IN NEW JERSEY DEAR THINKING AHEAD: I think it’s a terrific idea. And yes, I would enjoy celebrating such a special event, if I were invited. When is this party? I’ll be standing by my mailbox! DEAR ABBY: Why is it socially acceptable to refer to a grown woman as a “girl,” and yet it would never be appropriate to call a man a “boy”? — BARBARA IN HUNTSVILLE, ALA. DEAR BARBARA: I’m not sure whether all women would accept being called a “girl.” In fact, some would find it condescending and offensive. If you call a man a “boy,” he could regard it as an assault on his masculinity. And yet, I have heard those terms used in the third person, as in, “What’s my husband doing on Saturday? He’ll be out playing golf with the boys, while I’ll be going to lunch with the girls.” And I have never heard that it was offensive to either sex.

In this June 19 photo a helicopter drops water on the Modoc fire on Upper Table Rock in White City. Five hikers had to be evacuated from the area, according to the The Medford Mail Tribune. The Oregon Department of Forestry is tightening restrictions on land it protects in Central Oregon, the department said Friday the restrictions apply on private and non federal public forests in 12 counties.
Early cost-of-living pay increase for state employees SALEM (AP) — Oregon state employees are getting their cost-of-living pay increases a little early this year, based on the way benefits are calculated under the contract with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 75 contract. Union spokesman Don Loving told the Statesman Journal reports the state has agreed to give all state workers a 2 percent raise, likely starting in September rather than December. The cost-of-living increase is related to the calculation for total benefits, including health insurance. And, the Public Employees Benefits Board voted last week to adopt a new set of insurance premiums for 2015.
Fish waste truck crashes near Manning MANNING (AP) — The driver was seriously injured Sunday when a truck carry-
ing compressed seafood waste ran off Highway 26 near Manning and crashed into trees. Oregon State Police say the driver was taken by LifeFlight to Oregon Health & Science University Hospital in Portland. KGW reports the highway was closed in both directions for several hours during the cleanup.
Small but growing wildfire finds dry fuel PORTLAND (AP) — A Klamath County fire has been mapped at nearly two square miles and its fuel source is highly flammable. The Bryant Fire in a logging operation on private lands outside Bonanza in Klamath County is burning on ponderosa pine, mixed conifer and dried brush. John Flanigan of the Oregon Department of Forestry says the wood is so dry it could be lit with a match.
STATE D I G E S T The Department of Forestry says gusty winds and rough terrain make it likely the fire would grow larger.
Man arrested in 3 stabbings in Portland PORTLAND (AP) — Police say they arrested a 23year-old man in the stabbings of three people at Lebanese the Syrian American Club in Portland. Officers responded to a report of a fight and stabbing at the club a little before 1 a.m. Sunday, and arrived to find that two of the three people stabbed had already left for a hospital. They said witnesses identified the suspect as 23-year-old Christopher Pantoja, who was taken into custody without incident and treated for injuries sustained in the fight.
Authorities probe 2 small blasts ALOHA (AP) — Authorities say two small, homemade explosive devices detonated in the Aloha area with one leaving a woman with minor injuries and the other damaging a mailbox. The Washington County Sheriff’s office says that the first occurred Saturday afternoon at a portable toilet at the International School of Beaverton. A 40-year-old Washington woman injured her head and was treated at a hospital and released. The areas around the school and a park were evacuated and searched but no other devices were found. The office says that a little while after the first blast, another small device went off at a home about a quarter-mile away and caused minor damage to a mail box. There was no word of any suspects or a motive. The office says it’s investigating.
Billions at risk as West Coast port contract ends LOS ANGELES (AP) — The West Coast ports that are America’s gateway for hundreds of billions of dollars of trade with Asia and beyond are no stranger to labor unrest and even violence. Now, the contract that covers nearly 20,000 dockworkers is set to expire, and businesses that trade in everything from apples to iPhones are worried about disruptions just as the crush of cargo for the back-toschool and holiday seasons begins. With contentious issues including benefits and job security on the table, smooth sailing is no guarantee. On one side is the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, with its tradition of fierce activism dating to the Great Depression, when two of its members were killed during a strike. On the other is the Pacific Maritime Association, which represents shipping lines and operators of terminals at 29 West Coast ports. Both acknowledge that they are unlikely to agree on a new contract before the current one expires June 30, but they plan to negotiate past that deadline. That would fit the pattern from contract talks in 2008 and 2002. In 2002, negotiators didn’t reach an agreement until around Thanksgiving, following an impasse that led to a 10-day lockout and a big disruption in trade. The union’s total control over the labor pool means huge bargaining leverage, which negotiators have parlayed into white-collar wages and perks for bluecollar work. A full-time longshoreman earns about $130,000 a year, while foremen earn about $210,000, according to employer data. Workers pay nearly nothing for health coverage that includes no premiums and $1 prescriptions. Neither side has publicly
discussed progress on negotiations that began May 12 in San Francisco, which is headquarters to the union and the maritime association. Twelve years ago, the shutdown had a lasting impact on how products moved in and out of the United States. Hulking cranes idled. Ships anchored in San Francisco Bay and outside ports from Los Seattle. to Angeles Economists estimated the impact at $1 billion each day. Even after trade resumed, retailers — with their justin-time supply chain — worried that West Coast ports risked becoming a bottleneck. Companies looked to Gulf Coast and East Coast ports, which courted them by upgrading facilities. “They can’t afford to have their goods hung up either out on the sea or on the docks,” said Jonathan Gold, vice president of supply chain and customs policy at the National Retail Federation. Between 2002 and last year, the portion of shipping containers that came into the U.S. through West Coast ports dropped from 50 percent to 44 percent, according to a study by Martin Associates, a firm
that analyzes transportation systems. Imports to the Gulf of Mexico and the Northeast increased. Even so, West Coast ports handled cargo worth $892 billion in 2013 alone, according to trade data compiled by the U.S. Census Bureau. Worries over the current negotiations have prompted some stores to route shipments away from the West Coast, Gold said. Other importers planning for fall and winter shopping have shipped early to beat the contract’s expiration date. The maritime association warns that labor peace is essential to keeping West Coast ports competitive, especially with an expansion of the Panama Canal that will allow larger vessels to reach East Coast markets directly. The union is not persuaded, at least not publicly. “The competitiveness argument is an old saw that gets trotted out every time there’s a negotiation,” said union spokesman Craig Merrilees. “The claim has generally been used in an effort to extract concessions from the union members.” One area where the Pacific Maritime Association is looking for concessions is benefits. According to the PMA, the cost of benefits
more than doubled over the past decade, reaching $93,200 per registered worker in fiscal year 2013. During these negotiations, a new incentive is in play: In 2018, a 40 percent tax on the value of “Cadillac” health plans above a certain threshold kicks in under the Affordable Care Act — and the union’s coverage qualifies. Last July, workers and retirees picketed in Long Beach and in Tacoma, Washington, complaining that some families were shouldering tens of thousands of medical bills the health plan was not paying. Employers said legitimate claims were being paid, but they were scrutinizing tens of millions of dollars of treatments that were likely fraudulent, including phantom appointments and charges for cosmetic surgery. Other bargaining issues include what jobs will remain under union control, the introduction of technology that could make some jobs obsolete, and on-thejob safety measures.

MARYHILL, Wash. (AP) — As their sons returned dead or wounded or not at all from heavy fighting across the Atlantic in 1918, people in this small Columbia Gorge town sought to commemorate their sacrifice. On a visit to the original Stonehenge in England, a Quaker named Sam Hill heard stories of dark doings and ritual killings. What better way to mark the Great War then raging, he thought, than to construct a replica near his estate in Maryhill, Washington, a town on the state’s southern rim with Oregon. Hill argued that combat between nations was an irredeemable folly and the dead soldiers an offering to the “god of war.” So he built a West Coast incarnation of Stonehenge in tribute. The monument nearly lines up with sunrise on the solstice, just like Stonehenge — though stories about Bronze Age human sacrifices there were almost certainly false. The original structure was likely one of the earliest calendars. And much like Stonehenge, the replica draws a coterie of neoDruids, pagans and wiccans each year on the summer solstice. On Saturday, about 30 turned out in small groups from Oregon and southern Washington. Hill’s testament to the World War I dead stands alone on a reedy outcropping several hundred feet above the Columbia River. Inscribed inside are the names of slain soldiers from Klickitat County. Like Stonehenge, it contains an outer ring of 16-foot-tall stones, an inner grouping of 9-foot-tall stones and five pairs of arch-like stone pillars called trilithons. Religions that treat the sun as a deity turned to the summer solstice as a holy day. Greeks celebrated their god of agriculture, Vikings planned raids and early governance around midsummer, and Plains Indians, including the Sioux, marked the occasion with a dayslong ritual. This year, Elise Mesnard, a 24-year-old artist from Portland, said she arrived early Saturday and embraced the first rays of sunlight, which didn’t peek around the Columbia Gorge cliffs until about 5:30 a.m. “It’s a beautiful, meditative area,” Mesnard said. Egypt Rose of South Prairie, Washington, got started before the sun came up. She lit a candle and dropped wax figurines into a cauldron. The site is a public park, so the open-fire option she prefers wasn’t legal. She and seven others chanted to the Egyptian god of the sun, Ra, and circled the Stonehenge monument three times, signifying the banishment of evil and the discovery of renewal on the longest day of the year. “Personally, I don’t really call it a religion, because to me that involves other people,” Rose said. “It’s hard to describe it that way. I guess some people would call it paganism.” Other solstice celebrations included thousands practicing yoga in New York City’s Times Square.

Not saving at a greater rate than ever We Americans are bent on spending, and that is supposed to be a good thing. It drives our economy. When spending is down the outlook is bleak. When it’s up, economic-types are giddy with joy. And now it seems our spending is too much of a good thing because Americans on average are saving only a pittance, while more than half are saving nothing at all. In fact, those Americans are not saving at a greater rate than they have not saved in the past 74 years and I mean to the tune of negative 1%. I understand -30 F. with w i n d chill facEVERYDAY But CHEAPSKATE tor. 1% savings? I’m no math wizard but that sounds like a person r o b s bank and Mary then fails to save Hunt any of the loot. Apparently it means you don’t save money you never had in the first place. Or you spend all you have plus the money you had managed to save. Whatever the terminology and statistics that back it up, failing to save is at the least stupid and at the most quite dangerous. I know, we live in a world with plenty of plastic and big companies telling us not to worry about emergencies. That’s why God created credit cards we’re told—to be there when things go wrong and we’ve failed to prepare adequately. Yeah, right. And I’m Snow White. The only reason that credit card issuers want us to believe we need credit cards just in case of emergency is because it stands to make them very rich when we buy into it. If we depend on them rather than our self-sufficiency, they get insanely rich. So, you can’t afford to save? Then you can’t afford to eat or drive to work or buy stuff for your kids or do any of the other things with your money that you are doing. Saving isn’t optional in my world. It’s mandatory. It takes character, commitment and courage to save money. Spending everything you have now plus what you think you might have in the future is a crazy way to live Believe it or not, you can open a savings account at an online bank such as Ally.com or CapitalOne360.com with one dollar. Ditto for SmartyPig.com, quite possibly the most fun place to save money. These savings banks have no minimum requirements and no fees. You should do this. Then you should add a dollar tomorrow and the next day, too. And five bucks on payday. And ten bucks the following week. Soon you’ll be addicted to saving. Not a bad condition provided you are paying your bills. We get into financial difficulty one dollar at a time, and that’s the same way to get out. A little bit at a time, consistently, without fail. Knowing you have money put aside changes your attitude. It quiets your desires to always have more. It makes you content to live frugally. A dollar here, five dollars there, consistently, no matter what — it all adds up.

NEWS D I G E S T Don’t use ‘Allah’ unless you’re Muslim KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — Malaysia’s top court on Monday upheld a government ban forbidding non-Muslims from using “Allah” to refer to God, rejecting an appeal by the Roman Catholic Church that argued that the law failed to consider the rights of minorities in the largely Muslim nation. Although the Malaysian constitution guarantees freedom of religion, the 4-3 decision by the Federal Court is expected to reinforce complaints from Christians, Buddhist and Hindu minorities that non-Muslims do not always get fair treatment from the government and courts — accusations the government denies.
Politics had no role in Sandusky probe HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A report released Monday detailing the handling of the Jerry Sandusky child molestation case faults police and prosecutors for long delays in bringing charges but found no evidence that politics affected the investigation. The report, commissioned by Attorney General Kathleen Kane and written by former federal prosecutor Geoff Moulton, blamed a three-year time lapse in filing charges on communication problems, an expungement of a 1998 complaint about the former Penn State coach and a failure to take certain investigative steps early on.
Chief electoral officer resigns KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Afghanistan’s chief electoral officer resigned Monday in a bid to resolve a political crisis over allegations of massive fraud in the runoff presidential vote earlier this month. Zia ul-Haq Amarkhail told reporters that he denies any involvement in fraud but he is stepping down “for the national interest.” The standoff has threatened what Western officials had hoped would be a peaceful transfer of authority to show progress as U.S. and allied forces wind down their combat mission. The international community has scrambled to find a way out of the impasse, with the U.N. saying it stands ready to assist.
Pakistan diverts plane to Lahore ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan diverted a passenger plane carrying an anti-government cleric to Lahore on Monday out of security concerns, said an official, leading to a standoff in which the cleric refused for hours to get off the aircraft while it waited on the tarmac. The Pakistani cleric, Tahir-ul-Qadri, lives mostly in Canada but has a large following in his network of mosques and religious centers across Pakistan. Last year he threw the capital into crisis for days when he led rallies of thousands of people in the center of Islamabad to demand electoral reforms. This time he returned to the limelight — and the country — promising to lead more rallies against the government.
Justices limit EPA global warming rules WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Monday placed limits on the sole Obama administration program already in place to deal with power plant and factory emissions of gases blamed for global warming. The justices said that the Environmental Protection Agency lacks authority in some cases to force companies to evaluate ways to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. This rule applies when a company needs a permit to expand facilities or build new ones that would increase overall pollution. Carbon dioxide is the chief gas linked to global warming. The decision does not affect EPA proposals for first-time national standards for new and existing power plants. The most recent proposal aims at a 30 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, but won’t take effect for at least another two years.
Massachusetts mayor: Stop sending my city refugees SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) — A Massachusetts mayor is calling for an end to refugee resettlement in his city, saying Somali families are putting pressure on already strained services in Springfield, a onetime industrial center where nearly a third of the population lives below the poverty line. Mayor Domenic Sarno is the latest mayor to decry refugee resettlement, joining counterparts in New Hampshire in Maine in largely rare tensions with the State Department, which helps resettle refugees in communities across America. The mayor is drawing criticism from those who say this country has a moral obligation to help the outcast and refugees who say they’re being scapegoated for problems the city faced long before their arrival. “Why not talk about the problems in the city, why not talk about the houses that are unstable and in bad conditions, why only talk about the Somalis and Somali Bantus?” Mohammed Abdi, 72, said through an interpreter. Sarno, leader of the state’s city, first third-largest demanded last summer that the U.S. government stop sending refugees. But after recent inspections found Somali families living in overcrowded, pest-infested apartments without electricity and sometimes heat, he stepped up complaints, saying resettlement agencies are bringing in “warmweather” refugees and dumping them into cold climates only to leave them dependent on the city. “I have enough urban issues to deal with. Enough is
leave your culture at the door.” He later clarified that he didn’t expect them to abandon their religion or language but said: “I’m not going to apologize for ‘leave your culture behind.”’ Manchester, New Hampshire, Mayor Ted Gatsas in 2011 asked the State Department to stop resettling refugees there. Last year, he told the AP he still believes the city could benefit from a break in arrivals to “get these people into working society.” Such requests are rare, said Daniel Langenkamp, a department spokesman. “We make every effort to work with local officials and The Associated Press other stakeholders to ensure Somali refugee Hasna Abdi, 26, holds her child Muridi Hassan, 1, as he falls asleep after a bottle feeding in the resettlement of refugees the main room of their apartment in Springfield, Mass.

Israeli leader threatens more attacks in Syria JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel’s prime minister on Monday warned the warring parties in Syria against any attempt to heat up tensions with Israel, hours after the Israeli air force carried out a string of airstrikes in Syria in response to a deadly crossborder attack. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel would respond with even tougher force if there are any further attacks against his country. “Last night we operated with great force against Syrian targets that acted against us, and if needed we will use additional force,” he told members of his Likud Party. “We will continue to forcefully hurt anyone who attacks us or tries to attack us.” The Israeli military said the air raids struck nine targets in neighboring Syria. The Syrian government has not commented, but an activist group said the airstrikes killed at least 10 troops and destroyed an army command center. The director of the Britainbased Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Rami Abdurrahman, said the Israeli strikes destroyed two tanks, two artillery batteries and the headquarters of Syria’s 90th brigade. The Observatory collects its information through a
network of activists inside Syria. The Israeli military said “direct hits were confirmed” on the targets, which were located near the site of Sunday’s violence in the Golan Heights and included a regional military command center and unspecified “launching positions.” Israel has kept a close eye on the Syrian uprising since it began in March 2011, although it has avoided backing either side in the conflict. On several occasions, artillery rounds have landed on the Israeli side of the de facto border, drawing limited Israeli reprisals. Israel also has carried out several airstrikes in Syria over the past three years, primarily targeting suspected weapons shipments destined for allegedly in militants Hezbollah neighboring Lebanon. The latest air raids, however, came after an Israeli civilian vehicle was struck by what the army says was an anti-tank missile fired from the Syrian side of the border as it drove in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights. A teenage Israeli boy was killed and two other people were wounded in what was the first deadly incident along the volatile Israeli-Syrian frontier since the start of the

Israeli soldiers load shells in their tank following the first death on the Israeli side of the Golan since the Syrian civil war erupted more than three years ago, near the Israeli village of Alonei Habashan, in the area of Tel Hazeka, close to the Quneitra border crossing in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights, on Sunday. Syrian civil war. The Israeli vehicle was delivering water in contract work for the Defense Ministry when it was struck Sunday. “Yesterday’s attack was an unprovoked act of aggression against Israel, and a direct continuation to recent attacks that occurred in the area,” said Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, a military spokesman. He said the military “will not tolerate any attempt to breach Israel’s sovereignty and will act in order to safeguard the civilians of the state of Israel.” It was not immediately clear whether Syrian troops or one of the many rebel groups battling the government carried out Sunday’s deadly attack in the Golan.
But Lerner said it was clear that the attack was intentional. Israel has repeatedly said it holds the Syrian government responsible for any attacks emanating from its territory, regardless of who actually carries them out. While Israel was still investigating the incident Monday, security officials said the prime suspect was the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, a close Syrian ally and bitter foe of Israel. The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not allowed to talk to the media, said they did not expect the situation to escalate immediately but that it remains tense.
Few immediate consequences for child immigrants WASHINGTON (AP) — Thousands of immigrant children fleeing poverty and violence in Central America to cross alone into the United States can live in American cities, attend public schools and possibly work here for years without consequences. The chief reasons are an overburdened, deeply flawed system of immigration courts and a 2002 law intended to protect children’s welfare, an Associated Press investigation finds. Driving the dramatic increases in these immigrants is the recognition throughout Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador that children who make the dangerous trip can effectively remain in the U.S. for years before facing even a moderate risk of deportation. The Obama administration estimates it will catch 90,000 children trying to illegally
cross the Mexican border without their parents by the end of the current budget year in September. Last year, the government returned fewer than 2,000 children to their native countries. The administration has asked Congress for $2 billion to spend on the issue. “They almost never go home,” said Gary Mead, who until last year was director of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement office responsible for finding and removing immigrants living in the country. “It’s not a process that ultimately ends in easy resolutions or clear-cut resolutions.” The situation is widely perceived as becoming a humanitarian crisis at the border. The system is now so overwhelmed that children are being housed in Border Patrol facilities ill-equipped to handle them.
The government has asked the military to open temporary shelters in Texas, Oklahoma and California. U.S. officials, including the Homeland Security secretary, the White House domestic policy council director and the Customs and Border Protection commissioner have described immigrant families’ concerns about education, jobs and personal safety as driving the rise in border crossings. Only recently have officials acknowledged that perceptions that these children may be allowed to stay or that Congress soon may relax U.S. immigration laws — which is highly unlikely — may also be responsible. The AP’s investigation, based on interviews, court records and federal data, found that such perceptions are understandable because
of America’s broken system. “That misinformation is causing some people who are in a rather desperate situation to risk their lives to come to the United States border expecting that they’ll be able to stay in this country. That is simply not true,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Friday. “It’s important for viewers or those consumers of information in Central America to understand that showing up at the border illegally is not a ticket into this,” he said. Elmer Antunez Barahona, 17, left Honduras last year to reunite with his mother, who had traveled to find work in the United States when he was 4. He was apprehended in Texas’ Rio Grande Valley, one of more than 26,000 juveniles apprehended at the border in the 2013 budget year.
CAIRO (AP) — An Egyptian court convicted three Al-Jazeera journalists and sentenced them to seven years in prison each on terrorism-related charges in a verdict Monday that stunned their families and raised international outrage, with a chorus of voices denouncing the ruling as a blow to freedom of expression. The verdicts against Australian Peter Greste, Canadian-Egyptian Mohamed Fahmy and Egyptian Baher Mohammed came after a 5-month trial that International Amnesty described as a “sham.” The group called Monday’s rulings “a dark day for media freedom in Egypt.” The three, who have been detained since December, contend they are being prosecuted simply for doing their jobs as journalists, covering Islamist protests against the ouster last year of President Mohammed Morsi. The trial has been widely seen as political, part of a fight between the government and the Qatar-based Al-Jazeera network, which authorities accuse of bias toward the Muslim Brotherhood and Morsi. The network denies any bias. In an unprecedented trial of journalists on terrorism charges, prosecutors charged them with supporting the Muslim Brotherhood, which has been declared a terrorist group, and with fabricating footage to damage Egypt’s security. But observers of the trial said the prosecution presented no evidence to support the charges. Three other foreign journalists — two Britons who worked for Al-Jazeera and a Dutch freelance reporter who had no connection to Al-Jazeera but once met Fahmy for tea in his makeshift office at a luxury hotel in Cairo — were sentenced to 10 years in absentia. The verdicts came a day after U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry met with Egypt’s newly elected President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, the former army chief who ousted Morsi.

hearings over the effects of Facebook musings, tweets and blog writings about their trial experiences. Lawyers and judges have also been wrangling over how far attorneys can go in assembling a jury with help from online research of jurors’ social media habits. A few judges have denied permission to lawyers research social media sites as overly invasive while others have allowed it. One company has gone so far as to develop a software product that promises to create a juror profile through social media posts and monitor jurors during the trial. The ABA’s ethics committee began reviewing the issue about two years ago and concluded in April that looking at Facebook posts, Twitter tweets and other information gathered passively is ethical research. “It’s like any other publicly available information,” said Donald Lundberg, an Indianapolis, Indiana, attor-

ney who helped draft the ABA’s opinion as an ethics committee member. Lundberg said one of the thornier issues for the committee was whether lawyers could view LinkedIn and other social media sites that notify members that they have been searched. Ultimately, the ABA committee decided a LinkedIn search was ethically sound, which runs counter to an opinion issued by the New York City Bar Association in 2010 that said any notice sent to a potential juror about a search amounts to an unauthorized communication. “We stay away from LinkedIn and similar sites,” said Leslie Ellis, a Washington D.C. jury consultant. “We don’t want to do anything that would make them uncomfortable to serve.” Ellis said her firm has been asked on occasion to conduct social media searches of prospective jurors, but only

when their names are available days before they arrive at the courthouse. Ellis said prospective juror names generally aren’t available until the morning jury selections begins and that time-constraints limit what can be found online. “Social media searches are time consuming and expensive,” Ellis said. “What takes so long is confirming that you found the right person.” At least two state bar have organizations addressed online searches of potential jurors. The Missouri Supreme Court requires lawyers to research potential jurors’ litigation history on a Web site that tracks lawsuits in the state. The Oregon State Bar published an opinion last year that’s in line with the ABA guidelines, saying lawyers can access publicly available social media information, but can’t actively “follow” or “friend” potential jurors.

Her salary will come out of the grant, but the majority of the funding will go toward programming. The program will likely focus on visual arts, at least in the beginning, Broocks said. “We have pinched every penny until it screams, so to have some real funding is amazing,” he said. Sizemore said Sunset students also could see computer art and digital animation classes this year.

Lawyers can scour jurors’ social media sites SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Lawyers have been given the green light to scan the social media sites of jurors. The American Bar Association says it’s ethical for lawyers to scour online for publicly available musings of citizens called for jury service — and even jurors in deliberations. But the ABA does warn lawyers against actively “following” or “friending” jurors or otherwise invading their private Internet areas. Though judges now universally admonish jurors to refrain from discussing trials on social media, the nationwide lawyers group for the first time is addressing how deeply attorneys, their investigators and their consultants can probe for information that might signal leanings of potential jurors, or unearth juror misconduct during trials. Jurors’ online postings have disrupted many legal proceedings over the years, causing mistrials and special

cuts and other things going on in the schools, that sort of creative outlet is really kind of missing, or has greatly been reduced,” she said. “At Sunset, they don’t have any art programs at all, nothing except what classroom teachers can bring in.” One of those teachers is Sunset sixth-grade science teacher Rebecca Peters, who incorporates art into her classes and will serve on the local committee to develop the program. She’ll serve alongside Sizemore, Zappelli, Broocks and Sunset Principal Dale Inskeep. These are the types of programs that could open up career options for children who never would have known they existed, Zappelli said. “I think it’s great that they’re looking at Sunset ... because a lot of those students won’t have that type of opportunity,” Sizemore said. “Economically, they can’t afford it.” After the first year, the committee hopes Studio to School will expand to other local schools.

North Coos sweeps twin bill BY GEORGE ARTSITAS The World
NORTH BEND — North Coos kicked off its American Legion home schedule with a pair of wins Saturday, sweeping South Medford behind two late-inning rallies at Clyde Allen Field. North Coos came back to take the first game 9-7 and the Waterfront finished off the second by the count of 11-6. In the first game, the North Coos offense overcame nine errors from its defense to steal a win behind a six-run sixth inning. The errors put the Waterfront — and especially their pitchers — in a hole. Relief pitcher Trey Cornish had to overcome six errors in the final three innings to notch the win. North Coos starter Marquece Williams went the first four innings on the mound and didn’t let the early errors affect him. “I know errors come with baseball,” Williams said. “I’m a team player. It doesn’t bother me. Everybody makes mistakes. We kept our heads up and kept pushing through.” In the sixth, after a lead-off strikeout from Austin Soria, the next five Waterfront batters reached base and scored. North Coos eventually took an 8-6 lead on a two-run single by Williams. Williams was the catalyst behind the North Coos offense. He went 3-for-4 with two doubles and three RBIs to support his start in the first game. Williams finished the day 5-for-7 with five RBIs and three runs. “It feels really great to get the winning hit and make an impact on this team,” Williams said. “I was in a zone where I felt like I could get on base and help support my team.” In the second game, North Coos immediately fell behind after the first two South Medford hitters, Brandon Lupton then Alex Byland, got on and scored. North Coos stormed back with six runs over the next two innings, fueled by a double from Marshall Rice and two from Jonathan Bennison — including three RBIs —to put the Waterfront up 6-2. “We just started hitting the ball a lot better and getting runners on base,” Bennison said. “I hit the ball like I wanted to.” South Medford chipped away over the next three innings, jumping on Waterfront pitcher Victor Lahr to eventually cut the lead to 6-5. North Coos widened the gap to 9-5 behind three runs in the fifth, capped by a single to left from Williams that drove in Jared Hampel. SEE LEGION | B4
Vaughn is amateur runner-up THE WORLD Reedsport graduate Monica Vaughn came up short of her goal of a second Oregon Women’s Amateur title Saturday, falling 7 and 5 to Gigi Stoll of Beaverton in the final. Vaughn, who was the event’s youngest champion when she won in 2010, couldn’t overcome an early run of birdies by Stoll. The Beaverton High School senior won five of the first eight holes in the match — which was slated for 36 holes. She won the second, fifth and eighth holes with birdies and two others when Vaughn had bogeys. Vaughn never came closer than four-down in the rest of the match as Stoll posted a score of 4-under through the first 18 holes. Stoll finished the morning round with a 6-up lead. Vaughn was 1-over for the first nine holes of the second round, but could not make up any ground and Stoll finished the match with a birdie on the 31st hole. Vaughn, who graduated from Reedsport last year, just completed her freshman season at Arizona State University. University of Oregon golfer Thomas Lim was similarly dominant in the men’s final at the OGA Golf Course in Woodburn, beating Austin Landis of Gladstone by a 7 and 6 margin.

Portugal’s Silvestre Varela, center, celebrates with Eder, center-left, after Varela scored in the final minute of stoppage time for a 2-2 tie with the United States on Sunday.
So Close Portugal ties U.S. squad with last-minute goal MANAUS, Brazil (AP) — With Cristiano Ronaldo on the field, a one-goal lead is never safe. The world player of the year rarely sparkled on a hot and humid night in the jungle, but his inchperfect stoppage-time cross set up Varela for the equalizing goal Sunday in Portugal’s 2-2 draw against the United States at the World Cup. The Real Madrid winger, who has been playing despite a left knee injury, showed flashes of his best, but his impact was minimal until the final seconds of the match. He curled the ball in to a diving Varela, who headed past T im Howard to give the Portuguese team a slim hope of advancing to the second round and deny the Americans instant advancement. “He made a great cross,” said Howard, Ronaldo’s former teammate from their days at Manchester United. “Football’s cruel sometimes.” The United States now has four points in Group G, the same as Germany. Both Portugal and Ghana have one point. The Americans will face Germany on Thursday in Recife, while Portugal takes on Ghana at the same time in Brasilia. “Obviously we’re disappointed, but at the end of the day you’ve got to look at the positives, we got a point,” said United States captain Clint Dempsey, who scored to give the Americans a 2-1 lead in the 81st.
Americans, Germany have best shot to advance BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The United States and Germany both have four points and are atop Group G over Ghana and Portugal who have one point each. In the group stage of the World Cup, wins are worth three points, and draws are worth one point. All four teams have one game remaining. Germany and the U.S. will play Thursday in Recife, and Ghana and Portugal will kick off at the same time in Brasilia. Here are the scenarios: ● If the U.S. wins: The Americans are through to the next round as the winners of Group G and will play the second place team from Group H. (Belgium currently leads Group H, followed by Algeria, Russia and South Korea). Germany would finish second unless Ghana or Portugal won and passed Germany on goal differential. Germany currently is plus 4, Ghana is minus 1 and Portugal is minus 4. The second place finisher plays the “It’s going down to the last game and hopefully we get the job done.” Nani scored first for Portugal,
winner of Group H. ●If Germany wins: Germany wins the group. The U.S. would finish second unless Ghana or Portugal won and passed the U.S. on goal differential. The U.S. is plus 1, Ghana is minus 1 and Portugal is minus 4. So, if the U.S. loses to Germany, it will be rooting for Portugal, because it’s less likely that Portugal could pass the U.S. on goal differential. ●If Germany and the U.S. draw: Germany wins the group and the U.S. finishes second. The result of the other game is meaningless. ●If Ghana and Portugal draw: The U.S. and Germany advance. Germany wins the group unless the U.S. defeats them. ●Other tiebreakers: In any of these scenarios involving goal differential, if two teams are tied on points and goal differential, the next tiebreaker is total goals scored. Germany has six goals, the U.S. has four, Ghana has three and Portugal has two. shooting past a sprawling Howard in the fifth minute. But the Americans responded in the sec-
ond half as Portugal seemed to wilt in the stifling heat. Jermaine Jones made it 1-1 with a curling shot in the 64th after a cross from Graham Zusi made its way through the Portugal defense. And Dempsey, playing with a broken nose, then put the Americans ahead, using his stomach to direct the ball into the net from a cross by Zusi. “Now we have to go out and beat Germany, that’s what we have to do,” U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said. “We have to play Germany, we have one less day to recover, we played in the Amazon, they played on a place with less travel. We have to do it the tough way.” Dempsey’s goal was his fourth at a World Cup and second at this year’s tournament. Jones scored his third goal for the United States national team and first in almost two years. It was all Portugal for much of the first half, with Ronaldo in the starting lineup but getting less involved as the match progressed. The Americans, however, started to get more and more chances and even had a shot from Michael Bradley cleared off the line by Ricardo Costa in the 55th. “There didn’t seem to be any problem with Cristiano Ronaldo,” Portugal coach Paulo Bento said. “What happened during the game has something to do with our other players.” SEE WORLD CUP | B2
Wie breaks through with first major victory PINEHURST, N.C. (AP) — Michelle Wie followed Martin Kaymer to victory at Pinehurst No. 2. First literally, then figuratively. When Kaymer made his leisurely stroll up the 18th fairway seven days earlier on his way to sealing the U.S. Open, Wie walked right along with his pairing as a spectator. “I thought to myself, I want to be here on Sunday,” Wie said. “I want to feel this exact thing.” A week later, she did. And now Kaymer and Wie will be forever linked as the champions of Pinehurst’s first-of-its-kind double-dip of U.S. Opens. Wie’s two-stroke victory over top-ranked Stacy Lewis on Sunday at the U.S. Women’s Open came with a little more stress than Kaymer’s nine-shot romp — especially after Wie’s double bogey on the 16th. But her long birdie putt a hole later effectively locked it up, and turned her walk up the final fairway into something to savor. “I walked (the previous) Sunday with Rickie (Fowler) and Martin. I wanted so badly to be in that position, just to kind of have a leisurely walk up to 18 and make a par to win kind of thing,” Wie said. “And I feel so lucky. ... It felt so special. I kind of wish I could do it over and over again, it’s just so much fun.” This was the big victory the sport had been waiting for — maybe even needed. “I don’t think you can script it any better,” Lewis said. “I think it’s great for the game of golf. I think it’s even better for women’s golf. ... This has been such a long time coming for her.” No longer is Wie that preco-
cious pre-teen prodigy who qualified for her first pro event as a 12year-old and competed against the men on the PGA Tour. Now, she’s all grown up, with four career victories on her resume. She’s No. 1 on the LPGA’s money list, the tour’s biggest star. And she finally has a major trophy to go with it all. “U.S. Opens have been such a special part of my life, just because I get to see everyone again,” Wie said. “It’s like seeing old family and friends. But, yeah, just everything kind of what I’ve been through, all the ups and all the downs, this is definitely, it’s all worth it.” A win that seemed a certainty for most of the day — she took sole possession of the lead after her second hole — came into doubt for a while on the 16th. With a three-stroke lead, she hit a hybrid from a fairway bunker that wound up in a wiregrass bush. That led her to take a penalty drop behind her in the fairway and led to what she said was “a tinge of panic.” She chipped on to about 35 feet, then pushed her bogey putt 5 feet past the hole. A miss would have left her tied with Lewis. “It was pretty scary. I gave myself a nice heart attack,” Wie said. “I think I aged about 10 years in a span of 15 minutes there.” She made it. And on the next hole, she locked up the victory. Wie plopped her 8-iron safely onto the 17th green and sank the birdie putt that restored her twostroke lead, punctuating it with a fist pump. Unlike the day before — when a four-shot lead slipped away —

Michelle Wie poses with the trophy after winning the U.S. Women’s Open on Sunday at Pinehurst, N.C. there would be no collapse for Wie. Lewis, the No. 1 player in women’s golf, kept the pressure on by making eight birdies during a 66 that matched the best round of the tournament. She was on the practice range preparing for a playoff when her caddie told her that Wie made the putt on 17.
“I thought with the pressure of a major and the way this golf course played, I thought I had a chance,” Lewis said. Wie began the day tied with Amy Yang at 2-under. But once she claimed sole possession of the lead — on Yang’s double bogey on the second hole — she never let go of it. SEE GOLF | B4

Belgium’s Divock Origi, right, greets teammate Kevin De Bruyne after Origi scored the goal in a 1-0 win over Russia in the World Cup on Sunday.
Belgium edges Russia in World Cup THE ASSOCIATED PRESS RIO DE JANEIRO — Teenage forward Divock Origi turned a listless Belgian performance into a late 1-0 win over Russia on Sunday, enough to qualify for the next round of the World Cup with two straight victories. Belgium barely contained a reinvigorated Russia for most of the match, yet struck with a blistering final spurt of class and opportunism to turn a bad situation into a wild celebration for coach Marc Wilmots in the 88th minute and hugs all around at full time. “It was not easy, but we never gave up,” Wilmots said. After its dour 1-1 draw with South Korea, Russia produced the kind of sparkle and dominance that most had been expected more from Belgium in front of 73,819 increasingly restless fans at Maracana stadium. Algeria 4, South Korea 2: Islam Slimani scored one goal and set up two more as Algeria swept aside South Korea to become the first African team to score four goals in a World Cup match. The result gives Algeria its first World Cup win since 1982 and moves it into second place in Group H with one match left to play, against Russia. Slimani opened the scoring with a fine solo goal after 26 minutes as his
team raced into a 3-0 lead at halftime. However, it then had to withstand a South Korean fightback after the break to secure the points. The loss for South Korea means it must now beat already-qualified Belgium and hope that other results go its way to progress to the knockout stages. Belgium leads with six points, Algeria now has three, while Russia and the South Koreans have one apiece.
SATURDAY Germany 2, Ghana 2: Miroslav Klose rescued a point for Germany, and tied the World Cup scoring record in the process. Germany was held to a 2-2 draw by Ghana on Saturday, needing Klose’s equalizer in the 71st minute to avoid another second-game letdown that has plagued the team in recent tournaments. Klose now has 15 World Cup goals in four tournaments, equaling the mark set by former Brazil star Ronaldo. He celebrated the goal with his trademark summersault. Argentina 1, Iran 0: Lionel Messi finally found a way through Iran’s defensive wall with a superb goal in stoppage time to give Argentina a narrow victory and a place in the World
Cup knockout stages. Iran had defended solidly throughout the game and also took the match to Argentina in the second half, creating several chances to win the Group F match and cause a tournament sensation. But Iran was punished for those missed chances when Messi collected the ball about 20 yards (meters) out and curled a shot into the left hand corner. Iran had several chances to score, especially in the second half. The best of those opportunities came in the 67th minute, when midfielder Ashkan Dejagah’s powerful header from close range was tipped just over the bar by Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero. Nigeria 1, Bosnia-Herzegovina 0: Peter Odemwingie’s first-half goal sealed Nigeria’s first victory in a World Cup match since 1998 and eliminated tournament newcomer BosniaHerzegovina from contention. Odemwingie finished from close range in the 29th minute after one of a string of powerful runs by fellow striker Emmanuel Emenike. Nigeria needs a point against Argentina on Wednesday to be guaranteed a spot in the Round of 16 — and a surprise win would secure top spot in the group.
Hope Solo faces assault charges SEATTLE (AP) — U.S. women’s soccer star goalkeeper Hope Solo was arrested at a suburban Seattle home on suspicion of assaulting her sister and 17year-old nephew, but her attorney insisted that Solo herself was a victim in the altercation. “Hope is not guilty of any crime,” attorney Todd Maybrown said in an email to The Associated Press on Saturday. “In fact, our investigation reveals that Hope was assaulted and injured during this unfortunate incident. We look forward to the opportunity to present the true facts in court and to having this matter behind Hope very soon.” Officers responded to her sister’s home just before 1
a.m. Saturday after receiving a 911 call that a woman at the Kirkland residence was hitting people and that she refused to stop or leave, the Kirkland Police Department said in a news release. They found Solo intoxicated and upset, saw injuries on her nephew and her sister, and arrested her after speaking with those present and determining that she was the primary aggressor, the release said. She was booked into jail for investigation of two counts of fourth-degree domestic violence assault, and she was expected to remain in custody until an appearance Monday at Kirkland Municipal Court. A telephone number listed for her was not accepting
incoming calls Saturday, and the voice mail for a listing at the sister’s home was full. The sister was not identified by police, but in her memoir, Solo writes that she has a half sister named Terry. Solo, 32, has won two Olympic gold medals for the U.S. women’s national team. She also plays with the Seattle Reign of the National Women’s Soccer League. “We are aware of the situation with Hope and are now gathering information,” the Reign posted on the team’s Twitter feed. In 2012, she married former Seattle Seahawks tight end Jerramy Stevens. He was arrested just before their wedding for investigation of assault after a disturbance
involving her, but he was not charged. Maybrown represented Stevens in that case. Solo said soon afterward that there never was an assault and that she and her new husband were happy. “It’s unfortunate what the media can do to judge before the facts are out there. It’s hard to see, but it’s a hard truth, and it’s part of life,” she said then. “I’m happy. I’m happily married. I would never stand for domestic violence. I’ve never been hit in my life.” In her last appearance for the U.S., Solo recorded her 71st career shutout, a 1-0 victory over France on June 14 in Tampa, Florida. She sat out the team’s game against France on Thursday night in Connecticut.
Thorns score six goals in win at Washington THE WORLD The Portland Thorns set a franchise record for goals in a game, beating the host Washington Spirit 6-1 Saturday in a Women’s Professional Soccer League match. Alex Morgan and Jessica McDonald both scored two

FIFA suspends Cameroon midfielder Song RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — FIFA has banned Cameroon midfielder Alex Song for three games for elbowing Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic in the back during a 4-0 loss on Wednesday.
Song was already automatically suspended for Cameroon’s final Group A match against Brazil on Monday. FIFA says Song will complete his ban in Cameroon’s
next two official matches. After Cameroon’s almost certain World Cup elimination Monday, it plays 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in September against Ivory Coast and Congo.
FIFA’s disciplinary committee also fined the Barcelona midfielder 20,000 Swiss francs ($22,300). Song was sent off in the 40th minute when Croatia led 1-0.
WORLD CUP
ee Nestor Pitana of Argentina called for a cooling break, the first such decision to be taken at this World Cup. At the start of the match, FIFA listed the temperature at 30 degrees C (86 degrees F) with 66 percent humidity. FIFA uses the “Wet Bulb
Globe Temperature” to determine when official cooling breaks should be added, and says the WGBT must be above 32 degrees C (90 degrees F) for them to be considered. The breaks are supposed to occur in the 30th and 75th
minutes. There was no break in the second half, but that didn’t stop Ronaldo from creating the final goal. “It was a thriller,” Klinsmann said. “Everybody who had a chance to be today in Manaus will talk about this game for a long time.”

NEW YORK — Carmelo Anthony is putting himself on the free agent market. Anthony has informed the New York Knicks of his longexpected plans, two people with knowledge of the details said. Anthony had a Monday deadline to terminate the final year of his contract. He filed the paperwork on Friday, one of the people told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because no official announcements were made. Anthony has repeatedly said he planned to explore free agency this summer. Team president Phil Jackson told the A l l - S ta r forward after the season he may want to delay the decision and play out the final year of his deal, which would have paid him $23.3 million, but Anthony is going ahead with his previous plans.

BASEBALL Padres fire GM Byrnes after team’s slow start SAN DIEGO — A frontoffice shakeup had no impact on the San Diego Padres’ performance. After the team announced general manager Josh Byrnes was fired minutes before the first pitch with the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Padres put up another punchless performance in a 2-1 loss against Hyun-Jin Ryu. Although Padres President and CEO Mike Dee said there were a number of factors that figured into the firing, Padres Executive Chairman Ron Fowler made it clear that the ownership group was not happy with the product on the field. Byrnes’ offseason moves included free agent signings of starting pitcher Josh Johnson, who has yet to pitch for San Diego since straining his right forearm in spring training, reliever Joaquin Benoit and outfielder Seth Smith. Dee added that manager Bud Black has been told that his job is safe at least through the end of the season.

Gaughan holds on for win in Wisconsin ELKHART LAKE, Wis. — Brendan Gaughan took the lead after a green-whitecheckered restart, then held on to win the rain-soaked and wild NASCAR Nationwide series race at Road America on Saturday. Alex Tagliani was second, followed by Kevin O’Connell, Chase Elliott and J.J. Yeley as NASCAR drivers got a rare opportunity to race in the rain. It was a disappointing finish for Tagliani, who led in the closing stages of regulation but ran out of gas after a late caution flag came out. It was the third time in Nationwide history that grooved rain tires have been used in a race; the previous two were in Montreal. NASCAR only uses rain tires on road courses, not on oval tracks.

CRICKET Vatican fields team for contests in England VATICAN CITY — The Vatican’s new cricket team is going on tour, playing an Anglican squad at the Kent County Cricket Club and the royal household’s team at Windsor. The Sept. 12-20 “Light of Faith Tour” aims to forge greater ties between the Catholic and Anglican churches, which split in 1534 after English King Henry VIII was refused a marriage annulment. A half millennium later, the two churches remain divided on a host of issues, including female bishops. On the field, though, the teams will play a Twenty20 match for a common cause: to raise money for an interfaith initiative to combat human trafficking and modern-day slavery. The Vatican formed its team last year, tapping mostly Indian and Sri Lankan priests, deacons and seminarians studying in Rome.

Minor league for pro football will start this fall NEW YORK (AP) — Six teams, 40-man rosters, limited salaries — and perhaps no punts, kickoffs or extra-point placements. A home for players who can’t crack the big time to hone their skills for another shot at the NFL. Maybe even a place for collegians not yet eligible for the NFL to grow their games. The Fall Experimental Football League plans to launch in October as a developmental league, with no NFL affiliation but with lots of
intriguing ideas. “Given the current Division I landscape in football and the collective bargaining agreement the NFL has with the union, there is more than ever a need for another platform out there,” says Brian Woods, the FXFL commissioner. “A platform like for basketball and baseball players. “Pro football has nothing. The NFL has the practice squad, but it does not develop players because they don’t get into games. You don’t
develop if you aren’t getting on the field.” Woods, an attorney who played at Mississippi and coached as a graduate assistant at Iowa State, wouldn’t mind having a tie-in with the big boys, but that’s not immediately on the agenda. The FXFL will field teams in the New York and Boston areas; Austin, Texas; Portland, Oregon; Omaha, Nebraska; and in Florida. No city has been announced for the Florida franchise.
Former NFL players Tommie Harris, a three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle, and Eric Bassey have purchased the Austin franchise. The teams will play six games this fall in minor league baseball stadiums, with an emphasis on gaining experience. The main idea is to advance the talents of players, coaches, officials and front office executives, something NFL football operations chief Troy Vincent said in April his league is looking into for
the future. “Our long-term goal is to establish a partnership with the NFL,” Woods says, “and we feel can do that on many platforms. It would give them a way to work with younger players that they don’t currently have. We can help them train prospective NFL officials — in the NBA, every referee entering the league (in recent years) comes from NBA Developmental League. “We can be a testing ground for proposed rules, too.”

Mariners complete sweep in Kansas City KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Fernando Rodney was good for another dozen pitches and the Seattle Mariners were good for a sweep. Rodney, working for the fourth straight day, earned his 21st save in 23 chances as the Mariners defeated the Kansas City Royals 2-1 on Sunday for a three-game sweep. Rodney, who had thrown 46 pitches in the previous three days, got saves in all three games at Kansas City. He last got into four consecutive games on May 27-30, 2013, for Tampa Bay. “It was no problem,” Rodney said. “I said I feel ready. I got warmed up and felt good, felt loose. That’s why I’m a reliever.” “Sometimes early in the season you have a little problem with getting loose. When the weather warms up it helps get me a little more loose,” he said. Rodney dispatched the Royals on 12 pitches, giving up a two-out single to pinchhitter Mike Moustakas before striking out Pedro Ciriaco to preserve the one-run lead. “It’s simple,” Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said on summoning Rodney once again. “I had a talk with him and he felt good. He’s worked very, very efficiently, and he was very efficient today as well. He has not

He’s definitely off tomorrow. He asked me if he could go to the Dominican, but I told him no.” Rookie Roenis Elias pitched neatly into the seventh inning and Mike Zunino homered for the Mariners, who have won 18 of their past 26 road games.
After winning 10 straight to move into first place in the AL Central, the Royals have dropped four in a row, three of them by 2-1 scores. “We’re playing fine, but just an offensive down turn a little bit,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “You go through the ups and downs. A four-game losing streak
right when you had put together a nice 10-game winning streak, it’s tough.” Elias (7-5), a 25-year-old left-hander from Cuba, limited the Royals to one run and five singles over 6 2-3 innings. He struck out five, walked two and improved to 4-1 in June. “Everything was work-

Vanderbilt faces Virginia for title THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS OAKLAND, Calif. — David Ortiz hit a leadoff home run in the 10th inning and the Boston Red Sox beat the Oakland Athletics 7-6 on Sunday to avoid a four-game sweep. Ortiz was the only Boston starter without a hit until lining a 1-2 pitch from Fernando Abad (2-3) over the wall in left-center. The Red Sox had to go extra innings after letting a 6-1 lead slip away. The A’s scored three runs in the eighth, then Stephen Vogt and pinch-hitter John Jaso homered in the ninth against Koji Uehara (3-1). The closer had converted 31 consecutive save opportunities dating to 2013. The A’s had won five straight before Ortiz’s 17th h o m e r bailed out MLB Bos to n ’s bullpen. Recap Mike Napoli and David Ross also homered for Boston, which had been limited to two runs or fewer in eight straight games. Orioles 8, Yankees 0: Chris Tillman tossed seven innings of four-hit ball and the Baltimore Orioles handed Yankees ace Masahiro Tanaka his second major league loss. Jonathan Schoop homered off Tanaka (11-2) for the second time and fellow rookie Caleb Joseph capped the scoring with his first career homer. J.J. Hardy hit a threerun double for the Orioles, who spoiled Old-Timers’ Day at Yankee Stadium and took two of three from their AL East rivals. New York slugger Mark Teixeira left in the eighth after getting hit on his left foot by an 85 mph slider from T.J. McFarland. Teixeira hobbled toward first, then slammed his helmet to the ground in anger before heading into the dugout. X-rays were negative, manager Joe Girardi said. Angels 5, Rangers 2: Rookie Matt Shoemaker won his fifth straight decision, C.J. Cron and Kole Calhoun homered in the fourth inning against Yu Darvish (7-4), and the Angels completed a three-game sweep. Cron went deep for the third straight game, helping the Angels pull within five games of AL West-leading Oakland. Shoemaker (5-1) allowed a run and eight hits
ing,” Elias said through a translator. Zunino hit his ninth home run, tops among AL catchers. He connected off Yordano Ventura (5-6) leading off the seventh to break a 1-all tie. “Even though things aren’t going our way right now, I think we’re playing really good,” Ventura said
with teammate Bruce Chen acting as interpreter. Zunino led off the fifth with a double and scored on Willie Bloomquist’s two-out double. “We stepped up to the challenge and were able take three from them,” Bloomquist said. “It shows what we’re able to do when we play well. Those guys are a very, very good baseball team. Granted, a bounce here or there and it could have come out differently.” Ventura (5-6) had won his previous three starts. “He hung a breaking pretty good (to Zunino),” Yost said. “Outside of that, he pitched a great ball game. Anytime you go seven innings and give up two runs you give your team a chance to win a game that’s a great job.” The Royals scored their run in the second, which Alex Gordon and Salvador Perez opened with singles. Justin Maxwell’s sacrifice fly brought home Gordon. Royals shortstop Alcides Escobar left in the seventh with a bruised left shin. He was hit in the second by a pitch. X-rays were negative. The Mariners won a challenge in the seventh when Ciriaco was ruled safe at first for a bunt single. After a review that took over 3 minutes, the call was overturned and Ciriaco was out.

Through eight innings, Bumgarner (9-4) allowed only Cody Ross’ dribbler to the left of the mound in the second inning.

Sergio Romo gave up Martin Prado’s RBI single but got his second save in two nights and his 22nd save in 26 opportunities. Mets 11, Marlins 5: Daniel Murphy hit a threerun homer and the New York Mets matched a season high with 17 hits to beat the slumping Miami Marlins. Jonathon Niese (4-4), who has been plagued by poor run support this year, won for the first time since May 22. He allowed less than four earned runs for the 19th consecutive start, giving up three in six innings.

Tigers 10, Indians 4: Max Scherzer pitched six strong innings, Miguel Cabrera homered and drove in three runs, and the Detroit Tigers beat Cleveland for a three-game sweep. Scherzer (9-3) bounced back from one of the worst outings of his career. The reigning AL Cy Young winner allowed 10 runs in four innings against Kansas City on Tuesday. Cabrera hit his 13th homer in the first off Josh Tomlin (4-5), added an RBI single in the third and drove in a run with a grounder in the fifth when Detroit scored seven times. Rays 5, Astros 2: Yunel Escobar drove in two runs during a three-run sixth inning and the Tampa Bay Rays beat Houston.

Dodgers 2, Padres 1: Hyun-Jin Ryu pitched (9-3) six solid innings and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Padres soon after San Diego’s general manager Josh Byrnes was fired.
INTERLEAGUE Reds 4, Blue Jays 3: Johnny Cueto pitched eight effective innings and the Cincinnati Reds beat Toronto after Blue Jays stars Brett Lawrie and Jose Bautista exited early because of injuries. Lawrie sustained a broken right index finger when he was hit by a pitch in the second. The team didn’t immediately announce how long the infielder would be out. Bautista left because of tightness in his left leg. The All-Star outfielder had a single and a sacrifice bunt before leaving. Cueto (7-5) gave up three runs — one earned — and leads the NL with a 1.86 ERA. Aroldis Chapman struck out the side in the ninth for his 13th save.
OMAHA, Neb. — Tyler Campbell’s bases-loaded infield single in the bottom of the 10th inning gave Vanderbilt a 4-3 win over Texas on Saturday night and sent the Commodores to the College World Series finals against Virginia starting tonight. Campbell was in his second game filling in for third baseman Xavier Turner, who was ruled ineligible Friday for a violation of NCAA rules. Campbell had only 21 at-bats this season when he stepped to the plate in the 10th. He sent a slow grounder toward shortstop C.J. Hinojosa, who charged the ball, but couldn’t get it to first in time to get Campbell. Campbell waited behind the bag to be mobbed by teammates who came flooding out of the third-base dugout and bullpen. “That’s what these moments are about, when kids have been practicing all year and not getting in
LEGION From Page B1 South Medford made one more run in the top of the sixth when North Coos relief pitcher Renton Poole allowed the first three hitters on. After Lupton came home on a wild pitch, Poole struck three of the next four batters to get the Waterfront out of the jam. Poole, who lives in Japan and is in town for the summer, struck out seven South Medford batters in just 3 2-3 innings. A couple of North Coos runs from Rice and Hunter Jackson in the sixth inning leveled out the final at 11-6. Since South Medford isn’t a league foe for the Waterfront, Horning shuffled the lineup around and was pleased with the result. “Today’s game was much more about playing kids than getting a win, but it’s nice as a byproduct to get a sweep out of it anyway,” Horning said.
GOLF From Page B1 Wie reeled off eight straight pars before an eagle on the par-5 10th gave her some breathing room — which, it turned out, came in handy after her struggles on 16. Wie — who finished at 2under 278 — was the only player to wind up under par this week, the last in an unprecedented, two-week
games. Then their number is called,” Vanderbilt coach Tim Corbin said. “Everybody is so happy for this kid. They wanted him to play, and just to see him succeed, the team is beyond happy.” Freshman Hayden Stone (3-0) struck out eight in 5 2-3 innings of relief of Carson Fulmer. Vanderbilt (49-20) gives the SEC a team in the CWS finals for the seventh straight year. Virginia 4, Mississippi 1: Robbie Coman’s two-run, bases-loaded single gave Virginia the lead, and Josh Sborz and two relievers limited Mississippi to six singles in a 4-1 victory Saturday that sent the Cavaliers to the College World Series finals. Virginia (52-14), in the CWS for the third time, will go to the championship round looking for its first national championship in baseball. The Rebels (48-21) lost to Virginia for a second time in the CWS, ending their first trip to Omaha since 1972.
North Coos lost a pair of nonleague games at North Eugene on Sunday, falling 121 and 10-0 in a pair of fiveinning contests. Bennison scored the only run in the fourth inning of the first game, when he had a one-out single and eventually came home on an error. Bennison’s hit was the first of the game for North Coos and Shallon Zehe also had a single in the inning, the only two hits allowed by North Eugene’s Josh Spaht. North Coos had five hits in the second game, including three by Griffin Kaufmann, but couldn’t produce any runs. Victor Lahr and Trey Cornish had the other two hits. The Waterfront will be in Eugene today to play Sheldon in a league game. North Coos won’t play at home again until Sunday, when Cascade visits for a doubleheader starting at 1 p.m.

Sports Murray opens with win at Wimbledon
The Associated Press
Carl Edwards (99) leads Jeff Gordon in the final laps during Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup race.
Edwards holds off Gordon for win SONOMA, Calif. (AP) — Carl Edwards has never been known for his road racing skills — to the point team owner Jack Roush had to send him testing in a two-seater so Boris Said could teach him the basics. A decade later, Edwards finally has a win to show for his hard work. And, he beat road racing ace Jeff Gordon to get to Victory Lane on Sunday at Sonoma Raceway, where Gordon leads all drivers with five wins. “My road racing progression, it’s been a pretty long climb,” Edwards said. “The real special part to me was to stand in Victory Lane at Sonoma and have Jeff Gordon come and give me a handshake as the second-place finisher. I grew up watching Jeff Gordon, and specifically watching how he drove this race track and all the successes he had here, so I mean, that’s really super. It’s something I’ll never forget.” Edwards’ win made Roush Fenway Racing the unlikely organization to end Hendrick Motorsports’ five-race winning streak. And, the win came a week after Roush was shut out at Michigan, where the organization failed to put a car in the top 10 for the first time since 2000. Edwards took the lead on a restart with 25 laps remaining and seemed to have the win wrapped up until Gordon nearly chased him down on the final lap. Gordon had one good look at Edwards and couldn’t pull off the pass. “That last lap was ugly,” Edwards said of trying to hold off Gordon. It wasn’t a terrible day for the
Hendrick organization, which had won every Sprint Cup Series race since Gordon’s victory at Kansas on May 10. Instead, HMS settled for all four of its drivers finishing in the top seven. Gordon, the Sprint Cup Series points leader, wound up second. He said he made one mistake in overdriving a turn with about five laps to go that allowed Edwards to build a healthy lead. “I just couldn’t put enough pressure on him,” Gordon said. “I think had I put some more pressure on him, I saw him really struggling with the (tire) grip level, but he did everything he needed to do. That last lap, I gave it my best effort and closed up on him and he didn’t overdrive it. I was hoping he might slide up and I’d get a run on him.” Dale Earnhardt Jr. was third after rallying from an incident that wrecked Matt Kenseth, and was apologetic on the radio and after the race. “I tried to screw it up a couple times in the race, but I calmed down and was able to get a good finish,” Earnhardt said after his career-best finish on a road course. “I got into Matt, I jumped a curb and jumped into the air and just ran into him. Totally my fault. I hope he’s not sore with me.” Kasey Kahne bounced back from an early flat tire to finish sixth and Jimmie Johnson was seventh. In all, Chevrolet drivers took spots two through seven as pole-sitter Jamie McMurray, using a Hendrick engine, finished fourth and Paul Menard was fifth. Fords rounded out the top 10, led by
Edwards, Marcos Ambrose eighth and Roush driver Greg Biffle was 10th. The highest-finishing Toyota was Clint Bowyer in 11th. Bowyer was the leader on a restart with 31 laps to go, was passed by Ambrose, and then got a flat left rear tire. The tire problem led to Jamie McMurray turning Bowyer, and as Bowyer’s car was stopped in the middle of the track, bottleneck traffic caused Kevin Harvick to run into Bowyer. “We got ourselves in position and had a flat. It was going down and I was all over the place,” he said. “Jamie just kind of finished me up and got me out of the way. Bad luck, man.” Edwards’ win is his first career victory on a road course, and he’d never been higher than third at Sonoma. More important, it was his second win of this season and locks him into the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field. It was Edwards’ 23rd win of his career, the 135th Sprint Cup Series victory for car owner Jack Roush, and it made Edwards the 10th consecutive different winner at Sonoma. Crew chief Jimmy Fennig said the race played into their hands after pitting with 40 to go and then a caution came out and Fennig made the call to not bring Edwards in a second time under yellow. The strategy moved Edwards toward the front of the field and he moved his way to the front. “When you got somebody like Carl behind the wheel, and you put him out front, he’s going to get it done,” Fennig said. “To have two wins right now and to be locked in really feels good.”
LONDON (AP) — Andy Murray came onto Centre Court to a standing ovation and walked off to another as he began his Wimbledon title defense Monday with a straight-set victory against David Goffin. In keeping with tradition, Murray had the honor of playing the opening match on Centre Court as the defending men’s champion — and he looked right at home in beating the 105thranked Belgian 6-1, 6-4, 7-5. Murray broke Goffin four times, saved the only two break points against him and sealed the contest with an ace, his eighth of the match. It was Murray’s 450th tourlevel match win. Last year, Murray became the first British man to win Wimbledon in 77 years. Now he’s bidding to become the first to retain the title since Fred Perry in 1936. Murray received a huge ovation when he strode onto the court where he beat Novak Djokovic in last year’s final, soaking in the applause and giving a wave to the crowd — including those fans who queued up for tickets overnight for the rare chance to see a reigning British champion. “It was nice,” Murray said. “I was nervous this morning, nervous yesterday. Walking through brings back a lot of good memories. I got a nice round of applause and once you sit down in a chair it’s time to get ready for this year and move on from last year.” Among those in the Royal Box for the occasion were Murray’s father and grandparents and retired NBA star Shaquille O’Neal, dressed in suit and tie. Murray’s new coach, former women’s champion Amelie Mauresmo, sat in the front row of the guest box but showed little emotion throughout the match. Murray was on top of his game from the outset, sailing through the first set in 29 minutes, and closing out the second with an ace. Goffin, who stands 5-foot-11 (1.80
meters) with a slight build, was overpowered for the first two sets but raised his level in the third and pushed Murray hard. At 5-5 in the third set, Goffin was ahead 40-0 on serve but wound up being broken. Murray served out the match in the next game, with his final serve kicking up chalk down the middle. Goffin finished with more winners (31) than Murray (28). But Murray had only 10 unforced errors to 28 for Goffin. Among other winners on a cloudy opening day was sixth-seeded and 2010 runner-up Tomas Berdych, who beat Victor Hanescu 6-7 (5), 6-1, 6-4, 6-3. No. 12 Ernests Gulbis and No. 17 Mikhail Youzhny also advanced. But 18th-seeded Fernando Verdasco fell to Australia’s Marinko Matosevic, losing 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, 6-2. In women’s play, former top-ranked Victoria Azarenka won her first match in five months, defeating 1999 Wimbledon semifinalist Mirjana Lucic-Baroni 6-3, 7-5. The eighth-seeded Azarenka, a two-time semifinalist at the All England Club, made her return at Eastbourne last week following the long layoff with a left foot injury, losing in the first round. Former U.S. Open champion Sam Stosur and 18thseeded American Sloane Stephens were among the first-round losers. Stosur, the 17th-seeded Australian, slumped to a 6-3, 6-4 defeat to Belgium’s Yanina Wickmayer. The loss extended the 2011 U.S. Open winner’s poor run at Wimbledon, where she has never advanced past the third round and has lost in the first round six times in 12 appearances. Stephens, meanwhile, had her streak of reaching the second week at six consecutive Grand Slam tournaments ended with a 6-2, 7-6 (6) loss to 109th-ranked Maria Kirilenko of Russia.

TUESDAY, JUNE 24, 2014 You will have a multitude of tasks to contend with this year. No matter how daunting your workload gets, you will find a way to accomplish what you set out to do. The people you meet along the way will have a profound influence on your future. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You will be overlooked if you sit on the sidelines waiting for things to happen. Take an active interest in your community, and get out and do things instead of just daydreaming. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You will encounter many hurdles if you try to start something new today. Concentrate on clearing up old projects first, making it easier for you to move onward and upward. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Your natural gifts can be put to good use if you give others the chance to participate in your plans. Networking will help you find worthy contributors. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — You should make quick work of your to-do list in order to ease your stress and free some time to enjoy life with family or friends. Put love on a pedestal. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Relax and let things unfold naturally both at work and at home. If you are too intense, you will intimidate those around you. Be patient and understanding for the best results.
Call - (541) 267-6278 SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Trust in your talents and work hard promoting them to others. Your persuasive personality will help you get the help you need. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — If you are uncertain about moving forward with your plans, review what it is you are trying to achieve and make the adjustments necessary to succeed. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — You will hurt the feelings of someone close to you if you are insensitive about the problem that he or she is experiencing. Treat those around you the way you want to be treated in order to build healthy relationships. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — This is a good time to take care of home-improvement projects. Your energy and enthusiasm will encourage others to pitch in and help, or at least offer good suggestions. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Look for people who share interests with you. The knowledge and experience you gain and offer will lead to a long-lasting friendship and a unique collaboration. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Your edge over the competition will go up in smoke if you let others know your plans. Keep your strategy, secrets and whereabouts to yourself. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Don’t base your actions on assumptions or hearsay. Stay out of a costly predicament by getting the facts first. An excess of talk and a shortage of action will work against you.
