Larvicide application falters, mosquito population creeps up

BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

“The Bti has been very effective.

COQUILLE — Mosquitoes are still bugging Bandon, but not at last year’s rate, according to Coos County Public Health.

At Tuesday’s Coos County Commissioners meeting, Rick Hallmark, the county’s environmental health program manager, said Aedes dorsalis mosquito counts have increased the last two weeks, and will likely continue to stay elevated in the coming weeks.

That’s due to “spotty results” from the mid-June aerial application of the larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti), Hallmark said. He didn’t know why the application didn’t halt all Aedes dorsalis fly-offs.

But the mosquito’s takeover won’t

return to last year’s numbers, he said.

Traps, which have been placed to align with the tides, have caught significantly fewer mosquitoes this summer.

One overnight trap last summer would catch anywhere from 700 to nearly 5,000 mosquitoes. This year, a trap has caught at most 300. There was also a spike in early May, since permits for Bti application weren’t yet secured, and a fly-off occurred.

“Mosquitoes were already active and

maturing and biting people,” Hallmark said.

It takes four to six weeks for “this mosquito that we all hate” to die off, he said.

On Tuesday, another aerial Bti application was expected.

“If the wind does not cooperate, they’ll have 250 acres to do by hand between today and tomorrow,” Hallmark said.

County delays tribe roads proposal For the second time, the commissioners delayed their vote on the Coquille Indian Tribe’s proposal to add 84.3 miles of Coos County roads to its Tribal Transportation Program Roadway Inventory. The tribe says it would give them a chance to obtain federal funding to improve the roads.

“To me, I don’t trust that the Indians, once this is given to them, will honor any sort of contract,” said Fairview resident Ronnie Herne.

Jaye Bell, of Fairview, worried about the county giving its assets to “a foreign entity.”

“It’s nothing personal against the tribe,” she said, “but they are a special interest group.”

Commissioner Bob Main said he hasn’t had enough time to review the proposal. He also said the board needs more time to examine all three commissioners’ potential conflicts of interest.

Main’s wife works for ORCA Communications, a subsidiary of the tribe. Commissioner Melissa Cribbins was the tribe’s legal counsel for six years until she took office in January 2013.

Commissioner John Sweet serves on the Coquille Tribal Community Fund board of trustees.

Bible school goes medieval

District attorney says man was living in Coos County area ■

THE WORLD COQUILLE — The Coos County District Attorney’s Office identified the victim in Sunday morning’s fatal shooting in North Bend as a 21-year-old man living in the Coos County area.

In a press release Tuesday, District Attorney Paul Frasier said the victim, Luis Mario Castillo Murillo, is believed to have worked for a reforestation company.

An autopsy determined he died from a single gunshot wound to the head.

Investigators had difficulty identifying Castillo Murillo because of conflicting information in witness statements and the identification he was carrying.

WASHINGTON — With an August deadline looming, the House voted Tuesday to temporarily patch over a multibillion-dollar pothole in federal highway and transit programs while ducking the issue of how to put them on a sound financial footing for the long term.

The action cobbles together $10.8 billion by using pension tax changes, customs fees and money from a fund to repair leaking underground fuel storage tanks to keep the federal Highway Trust Fund, which pays for transportation programs nationwide, solvent through May 2015. The vote was 367 to 55. A similar bill is pending in the Senate.

COQUILLE — A Coos Bay man will spend more than two years in prison after a 2012 burglary on East Bay Drive led police to a marijuana grow on Cape Arago Highway.

Judge Richard Barron sentenced Samuel Joseph Clifton to 25 months in prison Monday following his conviction on charges of unlawful manufacture and possession of marijuana and possession of methamphetamine.

Clifton was also sentenced to 15 months post-prison supervision.

The string of events leading to his conviction began with a burglary call on East Bay Drive in December 2012.

A woman reported that tens of thousands of dollars in shop equipment had been stolen while she was taking her husband to the hospital.

After Clifton was identified as a suspect, police learned he was likely in possession of methamphetamine and had been growing marijuana.

The South Coast Interagency Narcotics Team subsequently served a warrant on at his Cape Arago Highway home, discovering a large grow operation.

Clifton had been growing under a card issued under Oregon’s medical marijuana program, but the card had been expired for several months at the time of the raid.

Detectives found the stolen property inside, along with scales, drug packaging materials and a purported zip gun that the sheriff’s office evidence technician thought would misfire.

Police say he had made building enhancements for the growing operation that put it out of compliance with the state guidelines.

Clifton was arrested and arraigned on multiple felony charges stemming from the drugs and alleged theft.

When he failed to appear for later court proceedings, a warrant was issued for his arrest.

Detectives tracked him down with the aid of informants and hauled him back to jail.

At his sentencing hearing, Clifton told the court that he had become depressed after the loss of several people in his life and had let the cards lapse.

One of Clifton’s lawyer’s, John Trew, argued that the lapsed grower’s card had only lapsed a few months.

Opinion theworldlink.com/news/opinion

Oregon should consider open primaries Backers of a so-called open primary initiative say they’ve gathered enough signatures to place the measure on the ballot this November.

The proposed ballot measure would replace Democratic and Republican party primaries with a single primary election open to all voters, regardless of party affiliation. That would include the estimated 31 percent of voters who are not registered with any party.

Under an open primary, all candidates for a particular office would be listed on a single ballot and every voter would be able to choose one candidate. The top two vote-getters would advance to the general election.

If enacted, the change would apply to all partisan local, state and congressional races.

Because of federal law, it would not apply to the presidential primary.

An open primary would ensure that every voters’ voice would matter in every election.

In theory at least, the candidates who wanted to emerge from the primary would be forced to appeal to the broadest possible bloc of voters. No more appeals by candidates to narrow interests, either ultra-conservative or hyper-liberal. No more shifting positions after the primary in order to appeal to a broader section of the electorate.

The ultimate result could be fewer partisan divisions in the Legislature and other elected bodies and winning candidates more inclined to search for common ground.

Corvallis Gazette-Times

Oregon Views Oregon Views offers edited excerpts of newspaper editorials from around the state. To see the full text, go to theworldlink.com/new/opinion.

West Coast’s wine industry is maturing nicely Wine industry expert Rob McMillan has written about the West Coast wine industry for years. He’s author of a new report that suggests as many as 10 percent of wineries will change hands in the next five years,and 31 percent of owners are willing to sell if circumstances and the offer is right.

That turnover in ownership could produce a sea change within the regional industry.

Rather than a cause for worry, McMillan says, that owners anticipate selling demonstrates the viability of the industry.

With 4,989 wineries on the West Coast, the survey results imply that 524 wineries are strongly considering selling their operation in the next five years, he concluded.

McMillan projects the sales will include 98 wineries in Washington and 79 in Oregon. In California, 78 Napa County wineries will sell, and 59 will sell in Sonoma County. In addition, others said they’re open to a sale under the right circumstances.

“An exit ramp in a business segment is critical for its overall health,” McMillan wrote.

“Consider the impact of an industry where there are no sales transactions. Exits would only mean abandoned businesses.”

The premium wine business began to really take off some 30 years ago. McMillan’s report suggests that some of the entrepreneurs who built that nascent industry are looking to retire and pass the business to new blood. That is a good thing.

It tells us the industry has matured. At the same time it is sufficiently dynamic to become something more.

Learning a lesson from the Cover Oregon debacle Who says we can’t learn from experience — especially experience that already has cost us millions of dollars?

We refer to the news that Oregon has hired the tech firm Deloitte Consulting LLC to help transfer the botched Cover Oregon health insurance exchange to the federal exchange

website. The contract, for a cool $18.4 million, also calls for the company to finish building the state’s Medicaid system.

Deloitte will be the so-called “system integrator” — in other words, the entity that oversees the transition.

You may recall that the lack of such a system integrator was cited as one of the primary reasons behind the Cover Oregon debacle.

Oregon’s exchange was the only one in the nation that failed this fundamental task.

Deloitte was hired to do an analysis of the mess, and eventually concluded what had become fairly apparent: The state needed to throw in the towel on the Cover Oregon exchange and switch to the federal website because such a switch would be cheaper than trying to fix the state site.

Now, Deloitte will create a new website that will redirect Oregonians to HealthCare.gov to enroll in private plans and to the Oregon Health Authority website to enroll in Medicaid. State officials say the transition will be finished by the next open enrollment period in November.

Let’s hope state officials have learned another lesson from the Cover Oregon debacle and birddog Deloitte’s work to be sure the company delivers the promised goods on time.

We don’t need any fresh chapters added to this litany of failure.

As the greats go, where goes jazz?

A jazz great died this month. Though revered by fans around the world, Horace Silver is not a household name in his own country, where the popular taste tends more toward rock and country than it does toward jazz. Silver’s most widely recognizable tune, “Song for My Father,” is recognizable mainly because the rock band Steely Dan used it in the opening riff of one of their biggest hits, “Rikki Don’t Lose That Number.”

No mention of that was made at Silver’s memorial service at St. Augustine of Hippo Episcopal Church on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. I attended with an older friend, who knew Silver since high school in Norwalk, Conn. Silver had apparently chosen this church for his service because it reminded him of the black churches back home.

People were there to note the passing of a uniquely talented saxophonist turned jazz pianist and composer. And without saying it, they lamented the fading of a jazz culture in which black musicians would gather in hotel rooms near the Apollo Theater in Harlem to share ideas and jam. And regular people piled in to the clubs.

Silver was born in 1928.

His father was an immiFROMA grant from Cape Verde, a HARROP collection of Portuguesespeaking islands off the Columnist coast of Africa. The family name, Silva, had been Anglicized to Silver.

A worker in a rubber factory,Silver’s father urged Horace to pursue music as one of the few avenues for success then open to ambitious young blacks. After joining his dad for two weeks in the rubber factory,Silver decided to take his advice.

And advice was not all that he took from his father. Silver grew up surrounded by the rich music of Cape Verde. His 1965 song “The Cape Verdean Blues” became a hit long before there was a thing called world music.

Back then, Cesaria Evora was still singing on cruise ships.

Silver’s music is a mix of African, Latin, jazz and a whole lot of gospel. He helped create the genre of hard bop — a reaction to the low-passion cool jazz of the ‘50s.

He was a spiritual being. My friend described him as unassuming and contemplative — “not your typical jazz wild man.”

There was very little dish on Silver. He combined musical greatness with personal goodness. A devoted family man, Silver dodged the drugs of the bebop era. He was inner-directed, doing his thing without caring much for changing fashions in music or worrying about his position on the charts.

And that’s why he died of natural causes at age 85.

But where goest jazz? It doesn’t lack for brilliant new practitioners. At the service, young musicians matched their elders in performances of Silver’s works.

And the followers of jazz are ardent as ever. Their numbers are the concern. The National Endowment for the Arts published a survey in 2008 showing that the audience for jazz was getting smaller and older.

In an essay titled “Can Jazz Be Saved?” arts critic Terry Teachout noted that Duke Ellington and Miles Davis are now being taught in public schools and their works performed in the great concert halls. In 1987, Congress passed a resolution touting jazz as a “rare and valuable national American treasure.”

But it’s not a good sign for an art form when the NEA worries about its declining audience, when Congress feels a need to give it a thumbs-up and when it gets taught in the schools. It’s not a good sign when music is called an art form.

Letters to the Editor Cell phoners; hang up and drive I must be getting old. Little things are starting to bother me.

But unlike warts and excess nose hair, I get most irritated by inconsiderate people who don’t do what they are supposed to do to make a better society. Yeah, teenagers are not supposed to smoke, dog walkers are supposed to clean up their dog’s poop, stinky people shouldn’t sleep in the library and we should all think about taking down the Christmas tree by Valentines Day. What bothers me most right now is the number of people on their cell phones as they drive around Coos Bay. I walk a lot in town. Not a day goes by when I don’t see at least a couple of drivers breaking Oregon’s ban on cell phone use while driving. So I happened to get chatting with a police officer the other day and brought up the topic. He sighed,“We write a lot of tickets for that. If we see them, we write them, and it’s an expensive ticket.”

Of all the things that irresponsible people do, getting distracted while driving and running me over in a crosswalk ranks pretty high on the list. And if I get killed by a driver texting in their lap, well, I will really be annoyed.

Come on folks. Turn off the cell phone in the car or pull over to a stop if you really need to talk. A phone call is not worth ruining your life.

Keep your butts to yourself, please This letter is in response to Paul S. Walton’s letter in the July 7 World concerning cigarette smoking.

First, Mr. Walton says he “sees” that the Coos Bay mayor and council “enjoy” making rules and regulations without citizen input.

As a North Bend resident, I can’t speak to that from personal knowledge, but I knew Crystal Shoji many years ago, and she did not strike me as a person who would “enjoy” making rules and regulations with or without citizen input.

Second, I do a lot of walking to try to keep myself in decent shape (I am 70 years old), and I like to pick up trash when I walk, to do my bit to keep our streets and sidewalks clean. I have learned that the largest form of trash is cigarette butts. I agree with Mr. Walton that they are not a safety hazard to the boardwalk, just a disgusting form of trash that smokers seem to believe they can toss away all over the place.

Cigarette smoking is dirty, and cigarette butts are dirty! Mr. Walton and other smokers have no right to dirty up our air, sidewalks and streets, and I am in favor of banning smoking on all publicly owned streets, sidewalks and other property.

Fracking practice needs to stop Five facts about fracking.

1. “Fracking” a single well can require more than 1,000,000 gallons of water.

This depletes local groundwater and can dry up nearby creeks.

The wastewater produced by “fracking” contains high levels of radioactivity that wastewater treatment plants are not equipped to treat.

2. Dangerous fracking chemicals are kept secret.

In many states, big drilling companies don’t have to disclose what chemicals they use in their fracking fluid ... the mixture is a “trade secret,” though independent analysts have identified 41 known chemicals in fracking fluid that are extremely toxic.

3. The “Haliburton loophole.”

Thanks to intensive lobbying from Dick Cheney, big oil and gas are exempt from the Safe Drinking Water Act. 4. You can light your tap water on fire.

When the high explosions used in fracking shatter the rock in which the gas is contained, it can leak into nearby household wells and drinking water. This gas can not only make you sick and even kill you, but it’s also highly explosive.

5. The number of fracking wells is growing at an exponential rate.

Fracking is already underway in 28 states. Big oil and gas compa-

nies are racing to drill more wells before people realize how dangerous this is to their health and safety. No one is safe from the spread of this dangerous drilling practice.

Drainage district being unfair As a member of Beaver Slough Drainage District (BSDD), I’m concerned about the way things are being run.

New tide gates need to be inserted. There are four available access routes to get this done. One is through Isenhart’s property, one is through Messerle’s, one through ODFW and the last access is through Waterman’s property.

Over the years, Watermans have improved their access and maintained their land at their expense as part of their farming operation. Charlie and Sharon Waterman do not want BSDD brining heavy equipment across their access roads and over their culverts. BSDD board of directors have access through their own properties. The ruling board of BSDD is Fred Messerle (chairman), John Knutson, Mark Isenhart, Ray Wheeler and a representative from Roseburg Forest Products.

BSDD has retained a Portland condemnation attorney, Cynthia Fraser,at our own expense,to have Sharon and Charlie’s land condemned, so they can have their own way, and have free access through it.

This is America — what’s going on here? They might have the money, the authority and the big guns to make this happen but that doesn’t make it right.

Sharon and Charlie Waterman are good, hard-working, honest Coos County residents. They are treated with contempt by this small ruling body of BSDD. The ruling body of BSDD have much of their meetings in executive session, so even we, the members of the district, won’t know what they are up to. They also only give us 24 hours notice of meetings.

What’s happening to us that we can’t have respect, love and con-

cern for our neighbors.

I don’t believe the people of Coos County have any idea that this kind of injustice is going on.

Boat basin cats deserve respect For many years there has been a colony of cats that live at the Charleston Boat Basin. These cats do not bother anyone and keep the area free of rats and other vermin.

There are local people who take care of these cats by feeding them and spaying and neutering them. The colony size has remained about the same. The cats that have been fixed have the tip of one ear clipped. And any new cats that show up are promptly caught and fixed.

It seems the port manager has decided to trap and get rid of this cat colony. I assume he has some kind of a reason,although I cannot imagine what it could be, other than he just doesn't like cats! I really think the port could be doing needed work around the boat basin instead of trapping cats that are not a problem and giving the people who are taking care of the cats a hard time!

Maybe the next time the port manager tries to get more money from the taxpayers, people can recall this waste of time and money he spent on getting rid of cats that were not a problem in the first place and were, if anything, an asset to the port by controlling the rats. Which would you rather have Mike, cats or rats?

News of the West and Obituaries Booklet helps nervious parents talk to their kids about sex DEAR ABBY: Help! My daughter just turned 13, and I need to discuss the facts of life with her. I don't know where to start.

My mom told me absolutely NOTHING, and I know my daughter DEAR needs to be educated in a simple but very unders ta n d a b l e way — especially in these times. Do you still have your JEANNE PHILLIPS booklet that gives teens answers to questions on sex? I need ideas on how to approach this. — NERVOUS MOM IN ILLINOIS DEAR NERVOUS MOM: Because many parents find the subject of sex embarrassing, they postpone discussing it with their children. When "the talk" finally happens, it is often too late. Their child's head is filled with informafrom tion received contemporaries, and often what they've heard is inaccurate.

Today, children are maturing years earlier than they did a generation ago.

It's not unusual to hear about teens engaging in adult activities at much younger ages than teens of earlier generations. That is why it's so important for parents (and guardians) to begin discussions about alcohol, drugs and family values well before their children start experimenting. My booklet, "What Every Teen Should Know," was written to help parents break the ice and get the conversation going. It can be ordered by sending your name and address plus check or money order for $7 (U.S. funds) to Dear Abby Teen Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 610540447.

Shipping and handling are included in the price. You should review it before starting the discussion so you can prepare beforehand to answer questions or guide the conversation. My booklet provides answers to frequently asked questions, such as: How old must a girl be before she can get pregnant? Can she get pregnant the first time she has sex?

What time of the month is a girl 100 percent safe? How old must a boy be before he can father a child?

Another important topic is how to avoid date rape and what to do if it Included is happens. information on contraception and sexually transmitted diseases (and how to recognize them).

My booklet has been distributed in doctors' offices and used to promote discussion by educators and religious leaders, as well as parents like you who find it difficult to discuss these topics with their children.

DEAR ABBY: I recently started a summer job in the fitting room of a clothing store. Customers often ask me what I think about their outfits, and the most common question is, "Does this make me look fat?" How do I answer if the outfit DOES make the woman look fat? These women want honesty, but how do I avoid sounding rude? — CONFLICTED IN NEW JERSEY DEAR CONFLICTED: Try this: "The color is great on you. Let's get it in another size and it'll be perfect.

Sometimes garments have been mismarked." (It's true.)

OBITUARY Edna LaVern TourneyEdgecomb May 1, 1937 - June 26, 2014

The Associated Press

Eighi Hiastake, of the San Francisco Dept. of Public Works, washes a city sidewalk with a mixture of water and detergent Tuesday in San Francisco. In one of the most drastic responses yet to California's drought, state regulators will consider fines of up to $500 a day for people who waste water on landscaping, fountains, washing vehicles and other outdoor uses.

California seeks to send message to water-wasters SACRAMENTO, Calif.

(AP) — Reservoirs are running dry, the Capitol’s lawn has turned brown, and farmers have left hundreds of thousands of acres unplanted.

Even so, many Californians aren’t taking the drought seriously. State water regulators are trying to change that by imposing fines up to $500 a day for wasting water.

The State Water Resources Control Board acted Tuesday amid warnings that conditions could get worse if it doesn’t rain this winter.

City and suburban residents often are not fully aware of the seriousness of the three-year drought — the worst in California since the board mid-1970s, Chairwoman Felicia Marcus said in an interview after the 4-0 vote.

The vote is historic, she said, not only because the steps are unprecedented in California but because the board is trying to spread the burden of the drought beyond farmers and agencies that are trying to protect wildlife.

“We’re all in this together,” Marcus said.

Yet consumption throughout the state actually rose by 1 percent in May, according to a report from the board, while Gov. Jerry Brown is seeking a 20 percent reduction in water use.

“We’re taking the prudent step of taking action as if it’s not going to rain for more years, because we know that’s possible,” Marcus said.

The fines will apply only to wasteful outdoor water

use, including watering landscaping to the point that runoff flows onto sidewalks, washing a vehicle without a nozzle on the hose or hosing down sidewalks and driveways.

The board estimates the restrictions, which take effect in early August, could save enough water statewide to supply more than 3.5 million people for a year.

Cities and water districts were given wide latitude on how the fines will be implemented.

The full $500-a-day fine, considered an infraction, could be reserved for repeat violators, for example. Others might receive warnings or smaller fines based on a sliding scale.

The rules include exemptions for public health and safety, such as allowing cities to power-wash alleyways to get rid of human waste left by homeless people, to scrub away graffiti and to remove oil and grease from parking structure floors.

If fines fail to promote conservation, Marcus said the board would consider other steps such as requiring water districts to stop leaks in their pipes, which account for an estimated 10 percent of water use, stricter landscape restrictions and encouraging water agencies to boost rates for consumers who use more than their share of water.

Even with the leeway granted to local governments and water districts, some managers were unhappy with the board’s action.

Mark Madison, general manager of the Elk Grove Water District south of Sacramento, said the steps

will unnecessarily punish customers who already have reduced consumption.

Residents in his district have cut water use by more than 18 percent since last year.

“What you’re asking me to do right now is to thank them with a sledgehammer,” he told the board.

The increased usage noted in the report is attributable to two regions of the state: Southern California coastal communities and the far northeastern slice of the state. It was not immediately clear why consumption had increased in those areas.

No region of California met Brown’s request for a 20 percent reduction, but some came closer than others.

Communities that draw from the Sacramento River reduced consumption the most, by 13 percent, while those along the North Coast reduced consumption by 12 percent.

San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California cities that draw from the Colorado River decreased water use by 5 percent.

Cities and suburbs use about 20 percent of the state’s water, with about half going outdoors. Agriculture is by far the greatest water user, accounting for 75 percent of consumption in the state.

California farmers are just as guilty of using too much water as their urban neighbors, according to a separate report released Tuesday. The study by the University of California, Davis, found that some farmers could see their wells run dry next year unless the state sees a wet winter.

On June 26, 2014, Edna LaVern Tourney-Edgecomb, formerly of Bandon, departed her earthly home to embrace her forever home.

Edna was born May 1, 1937, in Las Animas, Colo., to Thomas and Daisy Hickam.

Edna attended elementary and high schools in Las Animas and Coquille. She graduated from Coquille High School in 1954 and married Virgil Tourney of Las Animas on Feb. 27, 1955.

Edna lived and worked in Bandon for many years. She retired from the position of office manager with the city of Bandon in 1980. After returning to work, she retired once again from Bandon School District in 1993. Edna faithfully served the public, her family and her friends.

She also served her church through the years as pianist and organist, Sunday school teacher, bookkeeper and in

many other capacities. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Edna is survived by her daughter, Melody Jamieson; grandchildren, Brent Jamieson, Sean Jamieson, Caryn Jamieson, Scott Jamieson, Jason Gaddy and Caley Sowers; five greatgrandchildren, Jacob, Jordyn, Londyn, Noah and Edyn Jamieson; siblings, Velma and husband, Jim Dodge and Donald and wife, CoeLena Hickam; and many nieces, nephews and friends.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Virgil; and son, Randal.

A celebration of life will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, July 19, at South Coast Assembly of God, Highway 101 and 13th Street in Bandon.

Memorial contributions may be send to Assemblies of God World Missions, 1445 N. Booneville Ave., Springfield, MO 65802.

Arizona protesters rally in immigration debate ORACLE, Ariz. (AP) — Protesters waved “Return to Sender” signs, shoved a group of mariachi musicians and waited for a bus of immigrant children that the local sheriff told them would arrive. At one point, they briefly halted a bus before realizing it was carrying children from a YMCA. The bus of Central American children never arrived, ending a day of protest in a small Arizona town that drew more than 100 people on both sides of the immigration debate.

Sheriff Paul Babeu is credited with stirring up the anti-immigrant protesters through social media postings and a press release and by leaking information about the migrants’ arrival to a local The Sycamore activist.

Canyon Academy acknowledged that it had an agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services to take in a “small number” of immigrant children from Central America, but it did not specify how many and when they would arrive.

“All this was done in secrecy, and that’s where a lot of people are upset,” Babeu said Tuesday. “My concern (is) where’s the federal government? Why are they not here? Why did they not hold a town hall to answer some of these ques-

tions?”

He addressed both sides of the protesters, asking them to remain civil, abide by the law and keep the roads cleared.

Immigrant rights activists questioned Babeu about agitating protesters when he should be bringing order as the county’s top lawman.

Babeu said he was simply informing the public and was at the site to make sure the protests on both sides were peaceful.

The protests came as the government released new numbers that show how many immigrant families and children have been pouring into the country in recent months.

The Border Patrol says 55,420 family members have been caught at the border from October through the end of June, a nearly 500 percent increase from the same period in the previous year. The number includes adults apprehended with their young children, and most of them were caught in the Rio Grande Valley in Texas. In addition, the Border Patrol says 57,525 unaccompanied children have been apprehended through the end of June.

The dueling groups in Oracle had a combined 130 people at the peak of the protests, including about 80 rallying against the shuttling of immigrants and 50 in favor.

Carpet the garden and other clever reader tips NO MORE WEEDS. Some years ago we decided to set out 18 tomato plants and — wouldn’t you know it? — the area we chose for the garden was covered with millions of tiny weeds. Preparation of the soil appeared to be overwhelming. In a moment of amazing creativity, we decided to cover the area with an old piece of carpeting, weeds and all. We made 18 3-inch cross cuts, one for each plant.

We lifted each cut, dug a hole beneath and set the plants.

We had a very colorful tomato patch (the carpet was yellow), vigEVERYDAY o ro u s CHEAPSKATE p l a n t growth and gorge o u s easy-toharvest tomat o e s .

E v e n during d r y Mary months, Hunt o u r tomatoes grew and produced remarkable yields with hardly a weed. Since then we’ve used old carpeting for our strawberries, too.

— Dolores B., Illinois PAINTING TRICK. When tackling a painting job you may not be able to complete in one day, don’t waste all of the paint in the rollers and brushes by cleaning them.

Simply wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store in the freezer. The next day simply remove the wrap and you’ll be ready to pick up right where you left off. — Catherine F., Washington HAIR RID. My hair stylist recommends this home treatment (cheap) instead of an expensive $25-$35 salon treatment for removing build-up of minerals, conditions, sprays, mousses and gels. Wash hair with a gentle shampoo and rinse in cool water. Towel dry hair.

Saturate hair with apple cider vinegar (not white vinegar which is too harsh). Wrap hair in a plastic cup or plastic wrap and heat with a blow dryer for 10-15 minutes.

Rinse hair thoroughly and shampoo again. — Jennifer D., Michigan GARDEN TIE-UPS. Save your old pantyhose or tights to use in your garden. I cut them in long strips and then use them to tie my tomato plants to the stakes or tomatoes cages. They are great for tying other vegetables (string beans, cucumbers, vine plants) to the fences. Nylons are better than string because they stretch and don’t cut off the plants’ circulation. — Sheila G., New Hampshire ONE FOR TWO. Long lip liner and eyeliner pencils are awkward and don’t fit into the typical makeup bag.

Solution: Break one in half and sharpen both pieces.

Now you have two manageable pencils for the price of one. — Linda S., New York DIY PILLOW SLIPS. Because pillowcases have become so expensive, I’ve begun making my own. I buy a fitted sheet and two flat sheets, making sure the second flat is queen sized regardless of the size of the matching set. Out of the queen flat sheet I make three sets of pillowcases. By analyzing a commercially made pillowcase, it is easy to measure and create a pattern and see how it is put together. — Virginia S., Texas YELLOW BE GONE.

NEWS D I G E S T Mexico promises action on migrants CIUDAD HIDALGO, Mexico (AP) — Mexico is promising to stem the flow of Central American migrants to the United States by tightening control at its notoriously porous Guatemalan border.

But messages from the country’s top two leaders in little more than a week have provided few details on how.

And the scene on the ground is business as usual.

Dozens of Central Americans who paid $1.50 a head could be seen this week crossing the broad Suchiate River on improvised rafts of inner tubes and wooden boards, in full view of Mexican police on the shore and immigration agents posted on a bridge overhead.

Japanese nuclear plant may restart TOKYO (AP) — A Japanese nuclear plant won preliminary approval Wednesday for meeting stringent post-Fukushima safety requirements, clearing a major hurdle toward becoming the first to restart under the tighter rules.

The Nuclear Regulation Authority accepted a 418page report that found that design upgrades and safety improvements at Kyushu Electric Power Co.’s two reactors at the Sendai Nuclear Power Station have complied with the requirements introduced last July.

Bombing suspect’s friend did not help him BOSTON (AP) — A lawyer for a friend of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (johHAHR’ tsahr-NEYE’-ehv) has told a jury that the man never tried to protect Tsarnaev and was prosecuted simply because he was “a friend of the bomber.”

Azamat Tazhayakov (AZ’maht tuh-ZAY’-uh-kahv) is charged with obstruction of justice and conspiracy for allegedly agreeing with another friend to take fireworks that had been emptied of their explosive powder, Tsarnaev’s laptop and other items from his dorm room after last year’s deadly bombing.

President Assad sworn in for 3rd term DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Proclaiming the Syrian people winners in a “dirty war” waged by outsiders, President Bashar Assad was sworn in on Wednesday for a third sevenyear term despite the bloody civil war ignited by a mass uprising against his rule.

Assad, who appeared confident and occasionally made jokes during his inaugural address, declared victory over “terrorism” and said countries that supported the Syrian opposition “will pay a high price.”

Rebels reclaim village on Russian border DONETSK, Ukraine (AP) — Separatist rebels said they retook a village near the Russian border from government forces Wednesday as both sides pressed to claim territory in eastern Ukraine.

Kavtaradze, a Sergei spokesman for separatists in Donetsk, said one rebel militiaman was killed and 15 others injured in fighting in the village of Marinivka. The insurgency’s military leader, Igor Girkin, told the Russian television station LifeNews that his men destroyed two Ukrainian armored vehicles and captured another.

US preparing unilateral sanctions WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States is considering imposing unilateral sanctions on Russia over its threatening moves in Ukraine, a shift in strategy that reflects the Obama frustration administration’s with Europe’s reluctance to take tougher action against Moscow, according to U.S. and European officials.

Until now, the U.S. has insisted on hitting Russia with penalties in concert with Europe in order to maximize the impact and present a united Western front. The European Union has a far stronger economic relationship with Russia.

Palestinians flee after Israel warning, airstrikes Bill ensures GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Hundreds of Palestinian families, their children crying, fled Wednesday, as Israel intensified airstrikes on Hamas targets, including homes of the movement’s leaders, following failed Egyptian cease-fire efforts. Before the renewed bombardment, Israel had told tens of thousands of residents of border areas to evacuate their neighborhoods.

The Palestinian death toll in nine days of fighting rose to 204, with some 1,450 wounded, Palestinian health officials said.

Typhoon kills 12 in Philippines, spares Manila MANILA, Philippines (AP) — A typhoon roared through the Philippines, killing at least 12 people, knocking out power in many areas and damaging a parked jetliner, but the country’s sprawling capital was largely spared when the storm’s fierce winds shifted direction, officials said.

Once a niche, local foods becoming big business PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Once a niche business, locally grown foods aren’t just for farmers markets anymore.

A growing network of companies and organizations is delivering food directly from local farms to major institutions like Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in downtown Philadelphia, eliminating scores of middlemen from farm to fork. Along the way, they’re increasing profits and recognition for smaller farms and bringing consumers healthier, fresher foods.

Over the past five years, with more than $25 million in federal aid, these socalled food hubs have helped transform locally grown foods into a bigger business, supplying hospitals, schools, restaurant chains and grocery stores as consumer demand grows.

Major institutions like Jefferson have long relied on whatever giant food service companies provide, often processed foods that are delivered efficiently and are easy to heat and serve. But with a steady supply of locally grown food from the Common Market food hub, Jefferson now serves veg-

etables like bok choy and asparagus, creamy yogurts from Amish country and with locally omelets sourced cage-free eggs and spinach.

The model is simple: Common Market, a nonprofit, picks up food from 75 regional farmers and small food companies and quickly turns it around in its Philadelphia warehouse. The food — everything from vegetables to turkey to tofu — is then sent to 220 city customers along with detailed information about where it was grown or produced. There are about 300 other similar food hubs around the country.

Shelley Chamberlain of Jefferson’s dining services says the hospital hopes to eventually source 10 percent of its food from Common Market. The items can be a bit more expensive and take more labor and training to cook, but Chamberlain says it’s worth it to serve healthier foods.

“We can’t go out to farms and say, ‘I’d like to buy your cucumbers,’ ‘I’d like to buy your bok choy,’ ‘I’d like to buy your carrots,”’ she says.

“They provide an infrastructure for us to trust what is

Dawn Buzby of A.T. Buzby Farm in Woodstown, New Jersey, says it’s a movement toward “farm to institution.” Three times a week, Common Market picks up tomatoes, sweet caneggplant, corn, taloupes and other produce from her farm and sells the food in Philadelphia, 35 miles away.

She says Common Market is helping her business get urban name recognition.

And her farm sets the price of sales, something that isn’t an option at the auction

down the road.

“People are just becoming so interested in their food and where it comes from,” Buzby says. “I only see it getting better.”

It’s a cultural transformation for the agriculture industry — and the Agriculture Department — which has long been focused on the biggest farms and staple crops like corn and soybeans. Most fruits and vegetables are shut out of major subsidy programs as billions of federal dollars flow to large growers.

emails, photos won’t die with you WASHINGTON (AP) — When you die, should your loved ones have access to your Facebook, Yahoo and other online accounts?

A group of influential lawyers says yes, unless you specify otherwise in a will.

The Uniform Law Commission was expected to endorse a plan Wednesday to automatically give loved ones access to — but not control of — all digital accounts, unless otherwise specified.

To become law in a state, the legislation would have to be adopted by the state’s legislature. But if it does, designating such access could become an important tool in estate planning, allowing people to decide which accounts should die when they do.

The plan is likely to frustrate some privacy advocates, who say people shouldn’t have to draft a will to keep their mom from reviewing their online dating profile or a spouse from reading every email they ever wrote.

“This is something most people don’t think of until they are faced with it. They have no idea what is about to be lost,” said Karen Williams of Beaverton, Oregon, who sued Facebook for access to her 22-year-old son Loren’s account after he died in a 2005 motorcycle accident.

The question of what to do with one’s “digital assets” is as big as America’s electronic footprint. Grieving relatives want access for sentimental reasons, and to settle financial issues. A person’s online musings, photos and videos — such as a popular cooking blog or a gaming avatar that has acquired a certain status online — also can be worth money. Imagine the trove of digital files being amassed by someone of historical value — say former President Bill Clinton or musician Bob Dylan — and what those files might fetch on an auction block.

Appeals court to take up execution case BONNE TERRE, Mo. (AP) — A last-minute stay from a federal judge has put a Missouri inmate’s execution temporarily on hold.

John Middleton was scheduled to die one minute after midnight Wednesday for killing three people in rural northern Missouri in 1995. Less than two hours before the execution, U.S. District Judge Catherine Perry granted a stay, ruling there was enough evidence of mental illness that a new hearing should be held.

Courts have established that executing the mentally ill is unconstitutional.

Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster appealed to the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, but that court adjourned for the night without a ruling.

It was a confusing end to a day that saw a flurry of court actions. Perry first granted a stay early Tuesday, but that was overturned by the appeals court. The U.S. Supreme Court refused to overturn the appeals court ruling and declined to halt the execution on several other grounds, including the contention by Middleton’s attorneys that he was innocent of the crimes.

Middleton’s attorneys then went back to Perry, who once again granted a stay.

However the appeals court eventually rules, the case is likely to end up again in the U.S. Supreme Court.

If the stay is lifted, the state could execute Middleton at any time Wednesday. The death warrant expires at midnight Thursday and if Middleton is not executed by then, the Missouri Supreme Court would have to set a new date.

State witnesses and media were told to report back to the prison by 10:30 a.m.

“I think we’ve reached a good compromise,” he said.

The next step begins this week, Sweet said. Crews will start opening up drainages during high tide, ridding the marsh of the areas of standing water where Aedes dorsalis mosquitoes breed. This project is expected to wrap up in September.

WASHINGTON — New federal guidelines on job discrimination against pregnant workers could have a big impact on the workplace and in the courtroom.

The expanded rules adopted by the bipartisan Equal Employment Opportunity Commission make clear that any form of workplace discrimination or harassment against pregnant workers by employers is a form of sex discrimination — and illegal.

Updating its pregnancy discrimination guidelines for the first time in more than 30 years, the agency cited a “persistence of overt pregnancy discrimination, as well as the emergence of more subtle discriminatory practices.”

The guidelines spell out for the first time how the Americans With Disabilities Act applies to pregnant

workers. And they emphasize that any discrimination against female workers based on past or prospective future pregnancies is also illegal.

Joan C. Williams, a law professor at the University of

California’s Hastings School of Law in San Francisco, said the new guidelines issued this week can have two major impacts: steering EEOC investigators to be more sensitive to the sometimes special needs of pregnant

workers and giving employment lawyers more ammunition in defending clients who were victims of such discrimination.

Williams, an expert in the field whose work is cited three times in the EEOC’s new 60-page “enforcement guidance” on pregnancy discrimination, called the toughened stance of the EEOC “a significant victory.”

Williams, who coauthored a 2011 study called “Pregnant, Poor and Fired,” said the main impact may by erecting “very, very, simple and very, very commonsense” guideposts for EEOC investigators, as well as providing strong ammunition for employment lawyers whose clients are victims of such discrimination.

“I think it will make a really big difference,” she said in an interview. “This is also the direction the courts have begun to go in, and that’s why the EEOC said, ‘Yeah, that makes sense.”’

on tax changes that are forecast to generate revenue over 10 years, but provide only enough money to keep the highway and transit programs going for another 10 months.

The largest chunk of the money, $6.4 billion, results from allowing employers to defer payments to their employee pension plans.

Funding pension plans normally results in a tax savings for companies, and deferring those payments means they will pay more in taxes and increase federal revenue. But several lawmakers suggested the revenue from the pension changes is illusory.

“Come on, really, it’s pretty phony stuff,” said Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Ore. “Let’s get real about how we’re going to fund our transportation” programs.

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, defended the bill while acknowledging its limits. “Listen, these are difficult decisions in difficult times in an election year,” he said. “The long-term prob-

lem is still there and needs to be addressed.”

President Barack Obama, touring a transportation research center in Virginia, said he supports the House and Senate bills to keep aid flowing to states, but wants more.

“All this does is set us up for the same crisis a few months from now. So Congress shouldn’t pat itself on the back for averting disaster for a few months,” he said. Earlier this year, Obama offered a $302 billion plan to increase transportation spending and keep programs going for another four years.

The plan, which was paid for by closing business tax loopholes, was received coolly by Republicans.

Democrats and some Republicans complained that it won’t be any easier under the GOP bill to reach a compromise on sustainable, long-term means to pay for programs by pushing off a decision until next year when the presidential campaign is heating up. Republicans,

however, may be in a better position to shape a transportation bill to their liking next year if they re-take control of the Senate in this fall’s midterm elections.

Republicans are divided over transportation policy. A significant minority of the party’s more conservative House members want to slash federal gas and diesel taxes, dramatically scale back transportation aid and leave it to states to come up with the money to pay for roads, bridges, buses and trains.

The House defeated along party lines a motion by Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., that would reduce the money in the bill to about $8 billion — just enough to pay for highway and transit aid through Dec. 31 — in the hope that another quick force would deadline Congress to come to an agreement on a long-term funding plan this year.

States have been told to expect an average 28 percent reduction in aid if Congress doesn’t act.

Jeter, Trout lead AL to All-Star game victory

BY RONALD BLUM The Associated Press

The Associated Press

American League's Mike Trout, of the Los Angeles Angels, hits an RBI double during the fifth inning of the MLB All-Star game Tuesday in Minneapolis.Trout was named the game’s MVP.

MINNEAPOLIS — Derek Jeter soaked in the adulation from fans and players during one more night on baseball’s national stage, set the tone for the American League with a pregame speech and then delivered two final All-Star hits.

Mike Trout, perhaps the top candidate to succeed the 40-year-old Yankees captain as the face of the game, seemed ready to assume the role with a tiebreaking triple and later a go-ahead double that earned the 22-year-old MVP honors.

On a summer evening filled with reminders of generational change, the AL kept up nearly two decades of dominance by beating the National League 5-3 Tuesday for its 13th win in 17 years.

“I think let Mike be Mike. I don’t think people have to necessarily appoint someone to a particular position,” Jeter said. “He’s got a bright future ahead of him. I don’t know how much better he can get, but if he consistently does what he’s doing, then he will be here for a long time.”

Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run homer to help give the AL champion home-field advantage for the World Series.

No matter what else happened, from the start it seemed destined to be another special event for Jeter.

He made a diving stop on Andrew McCutchen’s grounder to shortstop leading off the game and nearly threw him out at first, then received a 63-second standing ovation when he walked to the plate before his opposite-field double to

right leading off the bottom half.

He was given another rousing cheer before his single to right starting the third and 2 1-2 minutes more applause after AL manager John Farrell sent Alexei Ramirez to shortstop to replace him at the start of the fourth.

As Frank Sinatra’s recording of “New York, New York” boomed over the Target Field speakers and his parents watched from the stands, Jeter repeatedly waved to the crowd, exchanged handshakes and hugs with just about every person in the AL dugout and then came back onto the field for a curtain call.

“It was a special moment and it was unscripted,” Jeter said. “I was unaware of it.”

Vaughn shoots 67 to advance at Publinx THE WORLD Reedsport graduate Monica Vaughn surged into the match play portion of the U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links tournament Tuesday with a sensational 67 at The Home Course in Dupont, Wash.

Vaughn finished the two rounds of stroke-play qualifying in the tournament at 2-under par, which left her tied for 17th.

She is the No. 17 seed for the match play bracket, and faces Wanasa Zhou of Beaumont, Calif., in the round of 64 today.

After the opening round, that didn’t look likely, with Vaughn tied for 61st place. She started the first round Monday by going 5-over on her first seven holes, but she was 7-under for the final 29 holes of the two rounds.

During Tuesday’s round, she started on No. 10 and had birdies on three of her first seven holes, offset by a bogey on the 13th hole.

Vaughn then added birdies on the first, second, third and fifth holes before a late bogey left her at 67.

“I had a great day today,” she said. “I just felt very calm and relaxed over the ball all day, not quite how I felt yesterday.

“My putter was hot today and that’s where I made all my birdies.

Nibali now a strong favorite to win Tour

BY JEROME PUGMIRE The Associated Press

BESANCON, France — With defending champion Chris Froome and two-time winner Alberto Contador out of the race, the path is wide open for Vincenzo Nibali to become the first Italian to win the Tour de France since the late Marco Pantani in 1998.

The French have waited even longer for a champion — the last was Bernard Hinault way back in 1985 — but with three riders in the top six places, hopes are growing of at least a first podium place since climber Richard Virenque finished second in 1997.

After Tuesday’s rest day, the race resumes with Stage 11 on Wednesday, followed by arduous mountain stages on Friday and Saturday which will reveal the genuine contenders.

These are where Nibali’s climbing skills could set him apart, and give him a chance to fully stamp his authority on the race.

There are five days of hard climbing ahead, starting with Friday’s 197.5-kilometer (122.4mile) trek from Saint-Etienne to Chamrousse, which ends with a huge ascent of 18 kilometers (11.2 miles).

As for Nibali’s rivals, Contador broke his shin in a violent fall in SEE TOUR | B2

Waterfront earns Legion split

BY JOHN GUNTHER The World

NORTH BEND — North Coos continued its march toward the American Legion Class A state tournament by splitting a doubleheader with the visiting Grants Pass Miners.

The Waterfront bounced back from a disappointing 6-4 loss in the opener to win the nightcap 5-1.

In the process, North Coos improved to 9-3 in Area 4 North Division play and added the Miners to Sheldon and Roseburg Pepsi as teams North Coos has won series against. All that remains on the league schedule is a pair of doubleheaders against the last-place Roseburg Umpqua Lions on the road Saturday and at home Monday, meaning North Coos remains in great shape for a spot in the state tournament at Medford.

“I’m really happy with how we’re hitting, pitching and fielding,” said Jon Bennison.

Unfortunately, only one of those three elements was present in the first game Tuesday, a strong outing on the mound. Bennison pitched a seven-hitter, but North Coos committed three costly errors behind him. And the Waterfront only had four hits — three by Bennison — as Grants Pass erased an early 2-0 deficit.

“We didn’t have very many hits that first game,” North Coos coach Brad Horning said.

“And we didn’t help ourselves defensively.

“Everything we didn’t do well hurt us.”

The team turned that around quickly in the nightcap.

Hunter Jackson pitched a gem and the team backed him up with offense, starting in the first inning.

Marshall Rice walked, Tyler Laskey put down a sacrifice bunt and was safe at first on a throwing error, Robert Martino brought in Rice with a sacrifice fly and Bennison hit an RBI grounder.

That turned out to be all the support Jackson needed. He ended up striking out eight batters and got the Miners down in order five of the seven innings.

The only hit was a bad-hop double in the fourth inning by McKinnon Bennett. North

North Coos' Marquece Williams drives the ball during the game against Grants Pass on Tuesday.

Coos shortstop Marquece Williams was in position to make the play when the ball hit something and bounced over his head and into the outfield.

Bennett scored on the next play, when Roman Fretz hit a slow roller to short and Williams, apparently hurrying to try to make the play at first, didn’t get his glove down enough to scoop up the ball, with Bennett racing all the way home on the error.

Aside from that and two miscues that didn’t lead to any runs an inning earlier, North Coos was flawless in the field behind Jackson.

“It was a lot better than the first game,” Jackson said, quickly turning to Bennison and adding, “Sorry.”

North Coos, meanwhile, got production from most of the lineup.

The Waterfront got a run in the third when Martino singled, moved to second on a grounder by Bennison and came home on a single by Williams.

In the fourth, Austin Soria and Jackson had back-to-back singles to lead off the inning.

Soria scored on a grounder by Trey Cornish and Jared Hampel, a courtesy runner for Jackson, came home when Rice lifted a popup high into the stiff wind blowing from the north and it fell to the infield between three Grants Pass defenders.

The win in the second game was important for the team to maintain its momentum, the players said.

Sandblasters top Knights in exhibition THE WORLD The Three Rivers Sandblasters took a day off from their regular American Legion schedule and got a huge thrill Tuesday, beating the Corvallis Knights 4-1 in an exhibition game at Oregon State University’s Goss Stadium.

The Knights, who play in a summer league of teams filled with college players, didn’t use their regular starters, but that didn’t take away from the experience, coach Ryan Fobert said.

“The Knights played their reserves and gave their position players an opportunity to pitch and their pitchers an opportunity to hit in this very enjoyable exhibition game,” Fobert wrote on the Three Rivers website.

Three Rivers used six different pitchers in the seven-inning game. The one run they gave up was unearned.

Zach Inskeep scored a run for Three Rivers on a fielder’s choice

by Brad Snow in the third inning, and then had a two-run single in

the fourth, one of his three hits in the game. Inskeep drove in Sam Johnson, who had hit a double, and Connor Qualley. Tyler Dordan drove in the other run for the Sandblasters with a double in the seventh inning.

Earlier in the week, Three Rivers beat the Stayton Canyon Crushers 6-5 in 11 innings in a nonleague game Monday.

Dordan drove in Ricky Jones with the winning run, while pitcher Garrett McCoy got his first win of the summer, pitching

the final four innings.

Taylor Travess had two hits, including a triple, for Three Rivers. He and Johnson both score two runs.

The same two teams had played Sunday, with Stayton winning 86 in a league game.

Inskeep went 3-for-5 and also threw out two runners from his catcher’s position, but the Sandblasters couldn’t pull out the victory, falling behind the Crushers in the race for fourth place in the Zone 3 standings.

Best Open debut is name on claret jug HOYLAKE, England (AP) — Brendan Steele played in the final group at a major three years ago.

Brendon de Jonge played in the Presidents Cup last year. They will be among 36 players making their debuts Thursday in golf’s oldest championship.

Is it too much to ask for them to go home with the claret jug?

Royal Liverpool is the least known of the links courses on the rotation — this is only its second time to host the Open since 1967 — though all links golf can be a mystery. Winning for the first time is not as unusual as it would be at Augusta National, where a first-timer has not won since 1979.

Even so, examples are rare.

Willie Park Sr. was the first, but only because 1860 was the first championship. Ben Curtis was the most recent in 2003 at Royal St. George’s. Among the candidates might be Patrick Reed, who at No. 30 is the highest-ranked player in the British Open for the first time.

Here are the five best debuts in Open history: 5. Sam Snead: Sam Snead was one of only three Americans who journeyed across the Atlantic in 1946

when the British Open was staged for the first time after World War II. Back then, Americans lost money playing the Open because first place paid only 150 pounds.

It’s safe to say the Slammer wasn’t terribly impressed when the train pulled in the home of golf.

“Say, what abandoned course is this?” he said to the man next to him.

That would be the Old Course at St. Andrews, and Snead quickly learned to respect the ancient ground. He opened with rounds of 71-70, pulled into a share of the lead with Johnny Bulla and Dai Reis with a 74, and then closed with a 75 to win by four shots over Bulla, a fellow American.

He did not return the next year.

4. Tony Lema: Arnold Palmer gets credit for invigorating the Open when he came across in 1960 as part of his quest to win the Grand Slam.

Since then, more Americans began playing golf’s oldest championship.

His influence was a little more direct on Tony Lema.

The Bay Area native known as “Champagne” Tony wasn’t sure he wanted to play at St. Andrews in the 1964 British Open. Palmer talked

him into it, though Lema asked if he could borrow Palmer’s putter and his caddie, Tip Anderson.

It was a winning combination.

Lema shot a 68 in the second round to take the lead, shot another 68 to stretch the lead and won by five shots over Jack Nicklaus. It was his fourth victory in a six-week span.

Two years later, the rising American star died in a plane crash.

3. Tom Watson: Tom Watson wasn’t a complete stranger to major championships when he showed up at Carnoustie in 1975, but he didn’t know much about links golf. A year earlier, Watson was 24 when he took the 54-hole lead at Winged Foot in the 1974 U.S.Open,only to close with a 79 and tie for fifth. A month earlier, Watson was the 36-hole leader at Medinah in the U.S. Open until a 7877 weekend.

That changed in Scotland.

Watson overcame a three-shot deficit to Bobby Cole in the final round and made a 25-foot birdie putt on the final hole for a 72 to tie Jack Newton, one shot ahead of Jack Nicklaus and Johnny Miller. In the playoff, Watson shot 71 for a oneshot victory over Newton.

That made him the third American to win the Open on his first try.

2. Ben Curtis: Ben Curtis remains the longest of the long shots to win the British Open, accomplishing the feat in 2003. He was a 26-year-old rookie from Ohio who tied for 13th at the Western Open in Chicago. Back then, that was a primary avenue for Americans to qualify for the British Open.

No one really paid any attention to him all week, even though Curtis was never far from the lead. He was three behind going into the weekend, and two shots back of Thomas Bjorn going into the last round.

Against an All-Star leaderboard that featured Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh, Davis Love III and Sergio Garcia, Curtis closed with a 69 by making an 8-foot par putt on the last hole.

Then, he waited. The Open appeared to belong to Thomas Bjorn until he took three shots to get out of a bunker on the 16th hole.

Curtis won by one shot, becoming the first player since Francis Ouimet in the 1913 U.S. Open to win

a major on his first try.

1.Ben Hogan: Ben Curtis was the long shot. For Ben Hogan, this was his only shot.

Hogan played a limited schedule since nearly losing his life in a car accident in 1949. But he was on top of his game in 1953, winning the Masters by five shots and the U.S. Open at Oakmont by six shots over Sam Snead.

Everyone had to qualify for the British Open in 1953, and Hogan was no exception.

He opened with rounds of 73-71 at Carnoustie, and then pulled into a tie for the lead with Robert de Vicenzo after a 70 in the third round. Completing a perfect year in the majors, Hogan closed with a 68 for a four-shot victory. He played in only three majors that year and won them all. Hogan could not play the PGA Championship because his battered legs would not allow him 36-hole matches; besides, British Open qualifying was the same time as the PGA that year.

In his one shot at the claret jug, Hogan won to complete the Grand Slam. It was the last major championship he won.

Irons will take on added importance HOYLAKE, England (AP) — When Tom Watson remembers his favorite shots from the British Open — and, given he’s a five-time champion, there are plenty — one stands above all the others.

That 2-iron on the 72nd hole at Birkdale, locking up the last of his major titles in 1983.

Anyone who fancies a chance of hoisting the claret jug at Royal Liverpool would be well advised to practice the same sort of shot.

“That’s where you beat your competitors, if you’re a good long-iron player,” Watson said. “You hit the shots where you’re supposed to when you’re a long way from the green.”

Tiger Woods proved that in 2006, the last time the Open was played at this course in northwest England.

He pulled out his driver only once all week, sticking almost entirely with his irons on the way to an 18-under score and two-stroke victory.

That week, the links course was so dried out it looked like nothing more than a cow pasture from the aerial camera shots. It was hard as a pool table, meaning Woods could get plenty of distance by keeping the ball low and letting it roll, the sort of shot the 2-iron was made for.

The conditions are much different this time around.

Royal Liverpool is greener and softer, the result of a cooler, wetter summer. Still, the 2-iron — heck, all the irons — will be of vital importance in controlling the ball and staying out of the devilish pot bunkers that serve essentially as an automatic penalty to anyone who strays in their direction.

Justin Rose pointed out that he won last week’s Scottish Open while hitting nothing longer than a 6-iron off the tee on the final six holes.

“That’s all based upon keeping it out of the bunkers,” Rose said. “You can’t play links golf from pot bunkers.

They are true penalties. So whatever the club is, if it’s a 2iron or 3-iron or 4-iron or 5iron, that’s why they are important clubs to keep it in the fairway.”

Defending champion Phil Mickelson feels like he is driving the ball as good as he ever has, but he’ll be pulling a 2-iron out of his bag this week. It’s one of two clubs he rarely uses at any other tournament, the other being a 64-degree wedge that helps him keep the ball from bouncing.

He described the 2-iron as being “very important and instrumental in my success here.”

“I will carry a driver,” Mickelson said. “But it will

be very situational depending on the wind, pin placement and how I’m feeling at the given moment.”

The world’s top-ranked player, Adam Scott, always has a 2-iron in his bag.

He’s really looking forward to using it at the Open.

“For here, it’s perfect,” he said. “I don’t have to do anything with it, other than swing.”

Depending on the wind, Rory McIlroy figures he’ll divvy up his tee shots between the driver and the 2iron. While the par 5s present the best chance for birdies — and will likely bring out the driver — the two-time major champion knows he can’t get too reckless with his big club.

“I usually carry a 5-wood instead of a 2-iron,” McIlroy said. “I just think for this terrain and the conditions and the wind, the 2-iron just goes a little bit lower, and there’s a bit of a better flight on it, which is obviously better for these conditions.”

Even when one hits a booming shot with the driver, that doesn’t mean it will turn out well on a links course.

“Very often, they are so well designed that there’s the next set of bunkers, at 280, 290, 300 yards,” Rose said.

The Associated Press “So your decision is to take all the bunkers out (of play), Martin Kaymer of Germany watches his shot on the 18th hole during a practice round ahead of the British normally.”

Basketball stars win national prep athlete awards LOS ANGELES (AP) — Karl Towns Jr., a 7-footer headed to Kentucky to play basketball, and Brianna Turner, a Notre Dame recruit, were honored Tuesday night as the national prep athletes of the year.

Towns led his St. Joseph High School team to three straight state titles before graduating a year early this spring. The forward from Metuchen, New Jersey, averaged 20.9 points, 13.4 rebounds and 6.2 blocked shots last season.

Towns’ mother, who is from the Dominican Republic, jumped up, yelled and pounded her son’s back when he was announced as the boys’ winner by presenters Steven Jackson of the Atlanta Falcons, 2010 winner Brandon Knight of

the Milwaukee Bucks and Bradley Beal of the Washington Wizards.

“Wow, wow, wow,” Towns said, holding the silver trophy. “Growing up, you never really see yourself being in this position. I’ve got to thank my mom for always cooking for me. I’m a big guy and I eat a lot.”

Towns also thanked his father for working four jobs to provide for the family.

He earned a 3.50 grade point average and has played for the Dominican senior national team since he was 16.

“Having a good GPA is more important than just having 20 points a night,” he said.

Towns said he eventually would like

to become a doctor, having been inspired by his mother being a nurse.

Turner led Manvel (Texas) High to consecutive state titles, averaging 20.8 points, 11.5 rebounds and 4.2 assists in just 23 minutes a game last season. The guard-forward started all 154 possible games during her prep career.

Turner accepted her trophy from presenters Eddie Lacy of the Green Bay Packers, Omar Gonzalez of the U.S. national soccer team and retired soccer star Mia Hamm. Turner had a 3.78 GPA and was MVP of the McDonald’s High School All-America game.

“Thanks to my parents,” Turner said.

“Without them, I couldn’t have any of this success.”

TOUR From Page B1 Monday’s 10th stage and Froome pulled out on stage 5 with a broken wrist.

“I’m not happy about what happened to Alberto and Chris,” the 29-year-old Nibali said. “The climbs would have been better and more spectacular for everyone.”

Nibali, who won the Spanish Vuelta in 2010 and the Giro d’Italia in 2013, is 2 minutes, 23 seconds ahead of Australian Richie Porte and 2:47 clear of Spaniard Alejandro Valverde.

Three Frenchmen are within four minutes of Nibali — Romain Bardet, Tony Gallopin The Associated Press and Thibaut Pinot.

Porte rode as a key support

VAUGHN Needs two wins to face top seed From Page B1 long time, so I’m very happy about that and hope I can keep it going all week.”

Several other golfers also posted outstanding rounds Tuesday, including University of Oregon golfer Caroline Inglis, one of Vaughn’s longtime opponents growing up playing junior golf in Oregon. Inglis

shot a 66 Tuesday and was tied for second with four others.

But the best round was by 14-year-old Eun Jeong Seong of Korea, who had an 8under 64, the best round in the history of the tournament, and also set the record for lowest two-round total at 134. The old one-round record of 65 was set by current LPGA player Brittany Lang in 2004.

If they both win their first two matches, Vaughn would face Seong in the round of 16 Thursday afternoon.

Gallopin wins Stage 11 OYONNAX, France (AP) — France’s Tony Gallopin led a late breakaway to win the 11th stage of the Tour de France in a hilly ride in eastern France, as Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali retained the overall lead.

As the pack reeled in a succession of breakaway riders, Nibali kept pace rider for Froome last year on the Sky team, but now has free reign to attack.

“Porte goes well in the climbs, he goes well in time trials, you have to keep a good distance on him,” Nibali said.

“You have to watch Valverde, he can attack at any time.”

Friday’s stage will also be special for Nibali because it

“As an Italian, it’s a huge privilege to be asked about Bartali. I grew up watching documentaries on the big riders, the big wins of (Felice) Gimondi, Bartali and (Fausto) Coppi,” Nibali said.

Sports ALL-STARS Jeter batted .481 in All-Star games From Page B1

The Associated Press

American League shortstop Derek Jeter, of the New York Yankees, walks off the field with American League Manager John Farrell, of the Boston Red Sox (53) after their 5-3 victory on Tuesday.

Class right to the end MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Derek Jeter was a huge hit from the very start in his final AllStar game.

Batting leadoff for the American League, the 40year-old shortstop for the New York Yankees soaked in an ovation that lasted more than a minute at Target Field, then seized the moment Tuesday night by hitting a double.

Jeter soon crossed the plate for the game’s first run. After three innings of action, he was ceremonially removed from his familiar position in the field to one more round of revering cheers as his mom, dad, sister and nephew watched from the stands.

“It’s been fun family time for us,” Jeter said during the American League’s 5-3 win.

The double was one of Jeter’s classic, opposite-field line drives to right. He singled to right field in his next at-bat, too, raising his All-Star batting average to a robust .481 — 13 hits in 27 at-bats. That’s the second-best of all time for

players with 20 or more atbats, behind Hall of Famer Charlie Gehringer.

OK, so maybe NL starter Adam Wainwright admitted he threw something juicy for Jeter to hit.

“I was going to give him a couple pipe shots,” the righthander said. “He deserved it.”

After the remarks caused much commentary on the Internet, Wainwright said he mis-spoke.

“What I meant to say was I’m intentionally trying to throw a strike to get him out.

It’s what I do most of the time, almost all the time,” he said. “‘Piping one’ is the wrong window for that. It really is. If I’m going to get taken to the slaughterhouse for saying a stupid phrase, then I deserve it. What can you do?”

Jeter didn’t think he was being given a gift and thought Wainwright was throwing hard.

“He grooved them?” he asked. “I don’t know, man. ...

If he grooved it,thank you.You still have to hit it.”

Jeter showed off in the field, too.

In the top of the first, he made a slick, diving stop on Andrew McCutchen’s sharp groundball up the middle.

Jeter got to his feet and fired an on-target throw to first base, but the fleet-footed McCutchen was too fast, just beating it out for a single.

McCutchen smiled and pointed at Jeter, who grinned back at the reigning NL MVP. The Yankees captain also had a few words for his teammates. AL manager John Farrell of Boston asked Jeter to speak to the players in the clubhouse before the game.

“Just said a couple things,” Jeter said.

This was the 14th time Jeter was picked as an All-Star. He’s set to retire after this season.

When Jeter stepped to the plate, the crowd gave him a 63-second ovation, prompting him to wave, nod and tip his helmet several times.

Fittingly, a recording of late Yankees public address announcer Bob Sheppard’s

famous monotone introduction was played as he walked up for his at-bat with thousands of smartphones snapping away in the seats: “Now batting, for the American League, from the New York Yankees, the shortstop, No. 2, Derek Jeter, No. 2.”

The tribute came right after a national television audience tuned to Fox saw a Nike commercial that featured the likes of Michael Jordan, Jay-Z and Rudolph Giuliani paying their respects to the captain. Right after that, he connected on the second pitch.

In the third, Jeter took Cincinnati ace Alfredo Simon to a full count before his single.

Then, right before the fourth inning began, Jeter was taken out for Alexei Ramirez and the captain jogged off.

With Frank Sinatra’s “New York, New York” playing on the stadium speakers, he waved to the crowd and exchanged hugs and handshakes in the AL dugout and then took a curtain call before the game resumed.

the Cardinals didn’t want it to stop.

“The guys on our side have the utmost respect for him and would like to have been standing out there for a little while longer,” he said. “I think Derek was the one that was uncomfortable with it.”

While not as flashy as Mariano Rivera’s All-Star farewell at Citi Field last year, when all the other players left the great reliever alone on the field for an eighth-inning solo bow, Jeter tried not to make a fuss and to deflect the attention.

Even during his clubhouse speech.

“He just wanted to thank us,” Trout said. “You know, we should be thanking him.”

Jeter’s hits left him with a .481 All-Star average (13 for 27), just behind Charlie Gehringer’s .500 record (10 for 20) for players with 20 or more at-bats.

While the Yankees are .500 at the break and in danger of missing the postseason in consecutive years for the first time in two decades, Jeter and the Angels’ Trout gave a boost to whichever AL team reaches the World Series.

The AL improved to 9-3 since the All-Star game started deciding which league gets Series home-field advantage; 23 of the last 28 titles were won by teams scheduled to host four of a possible seven games.

Detroit’s Max Scherzer, in

WATERFRONT North Coos alone in first place From Page B1 move on to the next thing,” Jackson said. “The next thing was the second game.”

In the opener, North Coos scored two first-inning runs on RBI singles by Bennison and Griffin Kaufmann. The team’s other two runs came in on a bases-loaded walk and a sacrifice fly by Jackson.

line to be the most-prized free agent pitcher after the season, pitched a scoreless fifth for the win, and Glen Perkins got the save in his home ballpark.

Target Field, a $545 million, limestone-encased jewel that opened in 2010, produced an All-Star cycle just eight batters in, with hitters showing off flashy neon-bright spikes and fielders wearing All-Star caps with special designs for the first time.

With the late sunset — the sky didn’t darken until the fifth inning, well after 9 o’clock — there was bright sunshine when Jeter was cheered before his first at-bat.

He was introduced by a recording of late Yankees public address announcer Bob Sheppard’s deep monotone.

St. Louis pitcher Adam Wainwright left his glove on the mound and backed up toward second, clapping along with the crowd of 41,048.

Trout, who finished second to Cabrera in AL MVP voting in each of the last two seasons, became the second-youngest All-Star MVP, about 3 1-2 months older than Ken Griffey Jr. was in 1992.

Playing in his third AllStar game, Trout followed Jeter in the first by tripling off the right-field wall.

Cabrera’s homer — just the fourth in the last six All-Star games — made it 3-0, but the NL tied it on consecutive RBI doubles by Chase Utley and Jonathan Lucroy off Jon Lester in the second and Lucroy’s run-scoring double against Chris Sale in the fourth.

Trout put the AL ahead for good with an RBI double in the fifth.

Grants Pass took the lead in the fourth, when the Miners got RBI doubles by Zach Morris and Dylan May. Later in the game, May launched a fly ball that the wind carried over the left-field fence for a solo home run.

North Coos remained alone in first place in the Area 4 North standings.

Sheldon is second at 9-5, with Roseburg Pepsi at 5-5 after those two teams split a twin bill Tuesday. Grants Pass also is 5-5, while the Roseburg Umpqua Lions are 0-10.

BRIDGE John Stuart Mill, a 19th-century British philosopher and economist, said, “The only freedom which deserves the name is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impede their efforts to obtain it.”

At the bridge table, though, it is your job to impede your opponents’ efforts to obtain your downfall. In this deal, how should South thwart the defense’s efforts to defeat three notrump after West leads his fourth-high-

est diamond?

There is a strong case for North’s raising one no-trump to three notrump, eschewing Stayman. He has a high honor in his doubleton and extra high-card strength. Even if North uncovers a 4-4 spade fit, game in that strain might fail due to, for example, a bad trump split, when there are nine winners in no-trump.

South starts with eight top tricks: three hearts, one diamond and four clubs. The ninth winner will come from spades. But playing on that suit will give the lead back to the defenders and maybe they can run the diamond suit.

The Rule of Seven recommends holding up the diamond ace for one round and taking the second trick. Here, though, that is fatal. West gets in with his spade ace and cashes three diamond tricks.

If the diamonds are 4-3, South is always safe. But if they are 5-2, what is the layout?

Surely East has honordoubleton because West would have led the king from K-Q-J-x-x.

South should win the first trick with dummy’s diamond ace to block the suit.
