Patriots Gathering draws activists ‘on the fringe’ BY CHELSEA DAVIS The World

NORTH BEND — When elected officials won’t listen to them, those on “the fringe” band together to tackle the nation’s problems issue by issue. In her opening comments, Patriots Gathering co-organizer Ronnie Herne instructed the crowd of about 30 that this was not a meeting “to grouch and gripe and carry on.”

Speakers rotated throughout the forum Saturday at Pony Village Mall, touching on land use, Coos County Home Rule Charter 2014, Common Core State Standards and more. It drew familiar faces. They’re the people who come to nearly every public meeting — and speak up. They’re “the fringe.” That’s how those in power define this crowd, said Coos County Watchdog founder and Bandon

resident Rob Taylor. Most recently, people will recognize him as the person speaking out against the commissioners’ handling of the mosquito problems at Bandon Marsh. “We have to do it at the most microcosm level as we can, so you attract a lot of what I call ‘the fringe,’” Taylor said. “When you see the fringe, no matter how rational the group is ... they (elected officials) see that message and then they roll their eyes, thinking

that we have a mixed message or a confused idea of what’s going on, when a lot of us are very coherent of what’s going on.” County commissioners meetings have a group of “regulars,” citizens who air their concerns every single time, which are entered into the record. That’s why vocal LNG opponent Jody McCaffree and Simpson Heights residents were disgusted by the city of North Bend’s meeting last week regarding the proposed Jordan

Cove Energy Project workforce housing camp. It was informational only, so the public’s comments were not recorded anywhere. “This is not a meeting where we get to present our issues,” McCaffree said prior to the meeting during a protest outside the North Bend Community Center. “In a hearing, it goes on the record and they’re held to it.” SEE PATRIOTS | A8

Ex-Oregon governor Vic Atiyeh dies at 91 BY JONATHAN J. COOPER The Associated Press

A local girl chases her dream to N.Y. in search of the purity of dance ■

COOS BAY — When Kim Prosa puts her mind to something, history has proven, she will not be easily deterred from that task. It is an attitude she shared with young dancers during a recent visit back home to Coos PEOPLE OF Bay. Prosa is THE another in a growing list of alumni dancers from the Bay Area that has made their mark in that profession. One thing that all of their success stories has in common is TIM they started NOVOTNY that out at the Pacific School of Dance, an off-campus program of the Boys and Girls Club of Southwestern Oregon. They also all exhibited an intense amount of focus. Administrative Director Pam Chaney watched the fire grow

Dancer Kim Prosa is part of a growing list of local dancers who have made their mark in the professional ranks. inside Prosa, even dating back to her enrollment as a 4-year-old. “From the time she came here, even as a little one, she told us, ‘I’m going to New York City,’” Chaney said. “She knew it even then. And she did! That was one determined child.” Now she is one determined adult, who has spent the past 12 years studying and dancing in New York. “I had always heard that that was where you needed to go if you

were really going to do it,” Prosa recalled during her most recent visit home. “If you really wanted to make a life of it, you needed to fully commit yourself, and New York was the scene. You just feel a pull, even though you’ve never been there.” It was a strong enough pull that she went to Los Angeles as a teenager for an audition to the Purchase Conservatory of Dance, a prestigious school in upstate New York. While other teens were won-

dering what to do with their weekends, Prosa was locked on to her dream. “It was hard,” she says. “I remember missing a prom and missing dances, and Friday nights for company rehearsals. Everybody would be getting ready to go to the football game and I’d have class. But, finding the balance and keeping the focus, and then still finding time to have a little bit of fun keeps you on track but still enjoying things.” Sitting in a quiet room inside the Pacific School of Dance, located inside the old Eastside Elementary school in Coos Bay, it is obvious that her focus and determination has not waned since she headed east more than a decade ago. It may have evolved, some goals may have shifted, but the passion for dance still burns. “I think it kind of evolves as you get older and you start to realize it more as an identity and less as a career,” she said, when asked to reflect back. “In the beginning, you think, ‘I want this to be a career and I want to be a dancer.’ As you get older you realize there are a lot more things about it that are special.

Left sees way to get past Senate roadblock BY JONATHAN J. COOPER The Associated Press

SALEM — Repeatedly thwarted by Republicans and a conservative Democrat in the Senate, environmentalists, gun control activists and others on the left hope this year’s legislative elections will finally give them their ticket to success in the Legislature. Sen. Betsy Johnson, a conservative Democrat from Scappoose who’s willing to buck her party and

its interest groups, has joined with Republicans on several key votes to deprive advocates of their needed Senate majority. “Time and again, priority legislation for the environmental community has lost 15-15,” said Doug Moore, director of the Oregon League of Conservation Voters. “In order to change that, we have to change the dynamic of votes in the Senate.” Moore doesn’t single out Johnson for blame, noting that

“any one of those 15 could have stepped up at any point.” But her position is particularly frustrating for groups on the left that insist the Senate’s other 15 Democrats are with them, along with the more liberal House and Democratic Gov. John Kitzhaber. Among the measures Johnson is blamed — or celebrated — for blocking: an extension of Oregon’s low-carbon fuel standard, gun control measures requiring background checks for private sales,

DEATHS

PORTLAND — Vic Atiyeh, Oregon’s last Republican governor who shepherded the state through a deep recession during two terms in the 1980s, died Sunday night, a family spokesman said. The former governor died at 8:15 p.m. at Portland’s Providence St. Vincent Medical Center of complications from renal failure, said Denny Miles, who had formerly served as Atiyeh’s press secretary. He said that Atiyeh (pronounced uh-TEE-uh) was at home but had returned to the hospital Saturday due to shortness of breath and possible internal bleeding. The son of a Syrian immigrant, Atiyeh turned down an offer to play for the Green Bay Packers to take over his family’s rug business. He entered politics in the Oregon Legislature, then ran for governor and won on a platform of cutVic Atiyeh ting taxes. He wound up raising taxes because of the recession, but was also remembered for cutting his own salary as governor three times to help balance the budget. Atiyeh lamented the poor roll of the dice that made him governor during a recession. “I don’t want to sound defensive about it, but what you get is criticism during the period when times are bad, and then when times become good, it’s just the nature of things,” Atiyeh told an interviewer days before leaving office. Democratic Gov. John Kitzhaber said Atiyeh was both a mentor and a friend, calling him “a great Oregonian, an historic governor, and a remarkable human being.” Kitzhaber added: “He will be greatly missed, yet his steady leadership, gentle spirit, and love for our state lives on in the many contributions he made to Oregon.” House Republican Leader Mike McLane said the former governor was the epitome of a public servant. “He was our example,” McLane said. “He will be missed by all of us.” Atiyeh, a mainstream Republican who championed small state government and allowing citizens to be “left alone,” lost his first run for governor in 1974 to Democrat Bob Straub. He challenged Straub again four years later and won, taking office in 1979 as Oregon underwent what was then its most severe recession since the Great Depression. The state jumped from among the fastest growing in the country to one with a dwindling population as environmental regulations helped doom the once-mighty

and an effort to use driver’s license records to automatically register thousands of new voters. She’s also blamed for killing an effort to use unclaimed damages from classaction lawsuits to provide lawyers for the poor. Even Howard Dean, a former presidential candidate and Democratic National Committee chairman, weighed in on Johnson’s vote on the registration measure.

Hold the money to save border Dear Members of Congress, Here’s an assignment for you: Watch the 1939 classic “The Wizard of Oz” and pay particular attention to the part in which Dorothy realizes that in her ruby red slippers, she had the magic power she needed all along. You do, too. Not in fancy footwear, of course. It’s called the power of the purse. You don’t like what’s going on where the border used to be before Barack Obama eliminated it? I realize you are probably not equipped to deliver the Constitutional remedy of impeachment, but how about this: When Barack Obama’s multi-billion-dollar “supplemental” budget request for the “unaccompanied children” crisis comes knocking on the door of the Appropriations Committee, put your hands in your pockets and whistle. You do not have to fund it. And why would you? As Texas Gov. Perry points out in USA Today, “out of $3.7 billion in President Obama’s request, only $68.4 million — or 1.8 percent — is directly dedicated to border security efforts.” That “supplemental” request, by the way, which initial reports pegged at $2 billion, has now grown to $4.3 billion. Just say no. You can tell the occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.: “Not good enough, Mr. President. Up here on Capitol Hill, we are persuaded by our Senate colleague Tom Coburn, R-Okla., that there is a DIANA cheaper, better option. As WEST Sen. Coburn says, $20 million will fly all of these Columnist aliens home — first class! Even if we agree to spend the $68.4 million more of taxpayers’ money that you have designated to secure (read: attempt to reinstate) the border, we will still rack up savings of well over $3 billion!” That’s real power — and it’s all yours. Get used to it. Remember, absolute powerlessness corrupts absolutely, too. Think of this way: You are useless to your bosses (constituents) if you are nothing more than a bunch of rubber-stamping, executive branch yes-men. And speaking of the power of the purse, that’s just not what we pay you for. To be sure, there’s much more financial flexing to do. Not to alarm anyone unduly, but it is a fact that in this immediate and truly existential crisis, the federal government is seizing more dictatorial powers than ever. Look at the way the feds are blocking journalists and you, democratically elected representatives, from even seeing what is going on at the holding centers for the “unaccompanied alien minors,” aka (according to federal fiat) “unaccompanied children,” soon to be known as “unchaperoned debutantes.” Attempting to inspect aliens held at Ft. Sill in his own district, Rep. Jim Bridenstine, R-Okla., was turned away on July 1 by the Department of Health and Human Services. HHS told him to return three weeks later. According to Politico, “Later in the week, the Department of Health and Human Services granted Bridenstine and members of the media a scheduled visit to the detention center on July 12” — did you catch the offending word, “granted”? — “but only on the conditions that pictures, questions and interactions with those in the facility are not allowed.” Says who — the Communist Party bosses of Upper Slobovia? Aptly, Bridenstine told CNN that “this is the kind of media (censorship) that they had in the former Soviet Union. This is not the kind of unfettered access that we expect in the United States” — certainly not in installations for illegal aliens that run on public monies. Wouldn’t you say HHS is getting a little big for its britches? Me, too. Well, who do you think is responsible for providing HHS with its budget, which comes to roughly $1 billion annually? You people. If you, the Reps., of We, the People, can’t get into these black holes of federal overreach in your own districts, then you need to think long and hard about turning off the juice to them. OK, time’s up. Tell HHS run amok, with its Office of Refugee Resettlement and its Administration for Children and Families, and the rest, that transparency is their New World Order, that the elected representatives of the American people, whom they work for every day, are on their way over ASAP with the ladies and gents of the Fourth Estate (such as they are), and nothing is off limits or off the record — or else two weeks’ notice is waiting them all at the door. Hey, that’s a good idea anyway. Think it over. Meanwhile, do what it takes to get the one-way tickets for the Central American Airlift bought and paid for. There may still be some good summer deals. As Dorothy said, “There’s no place like home.” But you, our elected representatives, must do everything that is Constitutionally in your power to protect it. Diana West’s newest book is “American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on Our Nation’s Character” from St. Martin’s Press. She blogs at dianawest.net.

Letters to the Editor Man and his deeds are missed Dear citizens: I hope that all of you read the obituary for Bill Tankersley in last week's papers. I don't think I have ever read a longer list of achievements and honors credited to one person. I am proud to say that I knew Bill for many years and always enjoyed being around him. Never once have I heard him speak of any of those credits he earned. He was a gentle man and a gentleman. He was a true American hero and I know that he will not be forgotten. Please join me in a huge salute to Bill. Sue Johnson Gold Beach

Who benefits from LNG? Just another thought. How do you get across one of our beautiful rivers with huge 36-foot wide, 23-inch long pieces of steel welded together into a pipeline? Like the highways I mentioned, over or under? Someone who I believe is in the know says under. Well, we can’t weld 32-foot pipes together under water. Dam the river? No! Divert it? Yes, wow! That means on to someone’s private property again, right? Yes, but just only for a short time, all right? Here in Coos County we have the bay of Coos, Coos River, the east and middle fork of the Coquille River in Douglas County and the huge Umpqua River Basin around Roseburg. Smaller creeks and streams. They’re so beautiful year round. Energy. This is the single word this giant, foreign company gave to all of us Coos County citizens. When you were a boy and your mom said, “Boy! You sure got a lot of energy,” made you feel real good, didn’t it? Even when you were grown, your wife says, “Honey, you sure have a lot of energy.” Same feeling. “This foreign company is no dummy”, Dick said that. Next time we will mention taxes: U.S. Internal Revenue, Montana state tax, Idaho state tax, Oregon state tax, all the

counties from Coos County, across all the counties to the Canadian border. I don’t believe the IRS, states of Montana, Idaho, Oregon, will say there are no taxes due on that heavy duty steel pipeline, or the contents inside, because we can’t determine the true value of any of it? How about the millions of dollars profit from the sale of the product to other foreign countries? Any federal taxes, state taxes? To tax audit a foreign company, I’ll bet, is very difficult. Dick Anderson North Bend

Fox ‘fair and balanced?’ — not It should be surprising that no one else has come forth to contradict Claudia Craig’s June 23 letter touting Fox “News” as an objective source. But, apparently progressive apathy still prevails. Of the three primetime hours, “anchor” Bill O’Reilly, who is correct and balanced about as often as a stopped watch; and Shaun Hannity, who cast his wholehearted support for the deadbeat, gun toting, anarchist rancher etc.; rail against anything Obama and offer few (if any) better alternatives on their shows. Actually, one frequently gets to see clips of Fox “News” on MSNBC as their right wing distortions and fabrications are put on display. However, not much criticism on Fox for the House’s 40-plus repeals of Obamacare or the total lack of realistic job producing legislation. Or that even Republican gun owners want background checks on purchasers or that most Americans want minimum wages raised up to 1970 levels. And if Ms. Craig really watched MSNBC, she would have seen Ed Shultz practically blowing gaskets during his heated criticism of the impending Obama “free” trade deal which would sabotage steel worker jobs or Chris Hayes bemoaning Obama’s timid policy on climate change or single payer advocacy. Actually, with all the egregious right wing activity, from

food stamp cuts and attempts to privatize Social Security, to states killing Republican Americans by denying Medicaid expansion, to the periodic government-threatened shutdowns over unrelated issues, to wasting time on Benghazi and phony IRS 501c4 related charges, to underfunding and denying appointments then blaming agencies for underperformance, to promoting U.S. military interference in a sectarian war, to red state voter suppression and abortion restriction (it’s still legal) to union busting that tracks with middle class decline to demanding only spending cuts to reduce the deficits still further to thwarting rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure etc. There isn’t that much time left to excoriate Obama for not criminally prosecuting the Wall Street banksters and G.W. Bush, Dick Cheney and company for war crimes. You can bet that House Speaker Boehner won’t cite those failures to uphold the law. Nor will Fox. The fact that Fox “News” gets significantly higher ratings than MSNBC correlates directly with America’s decline and decay. Thanks Fox. Thanks Claudia. John Zimmerman Coos Bay

Catastrophe adds to LNG doubts I’ve been thinking about Saturday and Monday’s World editorials (7-12 and 7-14-14). I agree that Coos County can be seen as a kind of island. I think it makes good sense to plan for, and perhaps even to prepare for, the likely outcome of some catastrophic event, such as an earthquake or tsunami. An important part of such planning should include both an assessment of available resources and a determination of what can be done to minimize risk. One example is change in building construction and safety codes as has been done in Los Angeles and San Francisco, to reduce damage, harm and cost from earthquake. The real current threat of

exploding LNG storage tanks was recently demonstrated by an LNG storage tank explosion in Plymouth Washington. That explosion happened without the help of earthquake or tsunami. Earthquakes have already caused fires and explosions in San Francisco. Poor LNG pipeline maintenance has lead to an explosion and fire in suburban San Francisco. An explosion at a Jordan Cove LNG storage tank, from any cause, could be a catastrophe for North Bend. This would be tragic, all by itself; independent of major earthquake or tsunami, which the World says is coming and the community should be prepared for. The World’s editorial seems to me to be naïve in its trust in reports from government agencies and profit motivated international business which imply that all is well and don’t be afraid. When it is said that escaping gas will disperse and evaporate, I just can’t believe it! I think back to past natural gas explosions. It continues to remain unclear to me why this island of Coos County should take on this added risk of allowing the construction of an LNG export facility. Michael Krumper North Bend

State Dating scene is frustrating for strong young woman DEAR ABBY: I am a young woman hoping to find “The One.” But I have come to realize that I’m not the normal female. I don’t get manicures or go shopping. (I hate shopping!) When I meet a guy, he likes that I’m “me,” but if we get serious, then I’m either “too independent,” “too outspoken” or “not girly enough.” I don’t DEAR want to c h a n ge myself or pretend to be someone I’m not. One m i n u te they like that I’m independJEANNE PHILLIPS ent and can fend for myself; the next they don’t like that I don’t depend on them to pay bills, etc. Why is it always a double standard? Men like strong women until they are with one. Then they can’t handle it. Maybe I’m too much for the men where I live. Is it possible for me to find someone? — INDEPENDENT FEMALE IN LOUISIANA DEAR INDEPENDENT FEMALE: Welcome to the wonderful world of dating. While some may think of dating as a popularity contest, it’s really more like sifting for a gold nugget. It takes a lot of people years to strike gold — and it’s the same with dating. Is it possible to find someone? Absolutely! But it takes time, stamina and a sense of humor to survive the process. DEAR ABBY: I had a baby girl a month ago and I live with my in-laws. My husband isn’t here right now because of his job. They are great and very helpful, but I never have any private time with my daughter. Every time she cries, my sisters-in-law pick her up. When she wants to sleep, they always take her away from me to put her to sleep. Even when I breastfeed, they are always in the room with me. I can’t seem to tell them no or ask them to get out of the room. I mean, they are very helpful, and they are leaving in a month for another country, so I understand they want to be with her as much as they can. However, I would still like some time alone with my daughter. Advice? — NEW AT THIS IN HOUSTON DEAR NEW AT THIS: As a mother, it’s up to you to assert yourself and do what is right for your baby. Find the courage to tell your inlaws that you are grateful for their assistance but want privacy when you nurse the baby. It is important that your daughter bond with YOU, and if your sisters-in-law are always tending to her needs, it may be more difficult for you when they leave. I’m sure your pediatrician would back you up. DEAR ABBY: Would it be OK for an 80-year-old man to take a 50-year-old woman to supper? We often talk together at church. — LOU IN WISCONSIN DEAR LOU: Only if she says yes.

Campaign Watch: The week in Oregon politics SALEM (AP) — A conservative super PAC with ties to the Koch brothers is buying into Oregon’s Senate race. Gov. John Kitzhaber picked up some surprising donations. And a national Republican group is targeting Oregon’s Legislature. Here’s a look at some of the more interesting news in Oregon politics this week, and it’s all about the money:

Super PAC in senate race A super PAC aligned with the Koch brothers’ political network has signaled its intent to spend big in Oregon, buying at least $1.5 million in television ads. The Koch brothers own a variety of companies in oil and natural resources, among other industries, and are big donors to conservative candidates and causes. They’re also vilified by Democrats, and Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley’s campaign was eager to tell the world that the Freedom Partners Action Fund is getting involved in Oregon. “The Koch brothers hate how Jeff’s stood up on behalf of middle-class Oregonians to powerful special interests just like them,” Merkley spokeswoman Lindsey O’Brien said in a news release. Significantly, the ad buy shows national Republicans haven’t abandoned Wehby, despite a string of bad publicity for the Republican.

Kitzhaber opponents give him money Kitzhaber’s campaign reported two surprising contributions this week. Rick Miller, founder and chairman of Avamere, which owns assisted living centers, gave the Democrat $25,000. Andrew Miller, chief executive of Stimson Lumber, gave

$10,000. Both men, who are unrelated, were leaders of the Oregon Transformation Project, a political action committee that was credited with helping conservatives win a majority on the Clackamas County Commission in 2012. They tend to support Republicans, and both supported Kitzhaber’s 2010 rival, Chris Dudley. Andrew Miller acknowledged that his donation “has perplexed a lot of people.” But he said he’s in the natural resources business, and on farm and forestry issues, Kitzhaber has been collaborative, inclusive and balanced.

National Gop targets Oregon Legislature The national Republican group in charge of boosting the party’s state legislative prospects says it’s targeting Oregon’s House and Senate for pickups. Both chambers were included on the Republican State Leadership Committee’s list of 16 Democratic chambers they hope to flip. The group wouldn’t say how much it plans to spend in any particular state. Asked to identify specific pickup opportunities in Oregon, spokeswoman Jill Bader pointed in an email to the Alan Bates-Dave Dotterrer rematch in Southern Oregon. She also said “several House incumbents will have to answer for their support of the expensive embarrassment” of the Cover Oregon failures. Campaign finance records show the group has spent about $420,000 on Oregon legislative races in the last two election cycles.

WINTHROP, Wash. (AP) — Forecasters say calmer winds and cooler temperatures are headed for a fire-scorched region of Washington state, conditions that could help firefighters in their battle against wildfires that have charred hundreds of square miles of terrain. Sunday’s official estimate put the wildfire burning in north-central Washington at more than 370 square miles, compared with 260 square miles on Friday. The forecast for today and Tuesday calls for lighter winds and temperatures, said Spokane-based National Weather Service meteorologist Greg Koch. “Overall, it looks like the weather scenario is improving,” Koch said. Then on Wednesday a “vigorous” front is expected to cover Washington, bringing rain to much of the state. But it will also bring lighting, he added. “The benefits of the system are still up in the air,” Koch said. “We may get some rain where we need it, but we may also experience some lighting that could cause some new ignitions.” Okanogan County Sheriff Frank Rogers estimates that 150 homes have been destroyed, but suspects that number could be higher. His deputies haven’t been able to search parts of the county where homes are spread miles apart. No serious injuries have been reported, Rogers said. There are nearly 1,400 firefighters battling the flames, assisted by more than 100 fire engines, helicopters dropping buckets of water and planes spreading flame retardant. On Sunday, Rogers was driving to the town of Twisp to survey the damage.

“It’s the first time in four days I’ve seen blue sky,” he said. “Every day, when you got up, it was nothing but smoke. All we’ve seen of the sun is a red ball.” Although the weather is improving, the towns in the scenic Methow Valley remain without power and have limited landline and cellphone service. Okanogan County Public Utility District officials told KREM that fully restoring power to the area could take weeks. Gov. Jay Inslee said Friday about 50 fires were burning in Washington, which has been wracked by hot, dry weather, gusting winds and lightning. About 2,000 firefighters were working in the eastern part of the state, with about a dozen helicopters from the Department of Natural Resources and the National Guard, along with a Washington State Patrol spotter plane. Karina Shagren, spokeswoman for the state’s Military Department, said 100 National Guard troops were on standby, and up to 1,000 more in Yakima could receive additional fire training. Active-duty military could be called in as well, Inslee said. The Washington state Department of Natural Resources announced Saturday evening that firefighters from New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming are coming to the state to help. Early Saturday, authorities announced that they are bringing in two military air tankers from Wyoming to help fight wildfires in the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere. Officials at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, said the tankers were activated to ensure that firefighters had adequate air tanker capability in the region.

Prison official embroiled in ethics probe retires PORTLAND (AP) — The deputy director of the Oregon prison system has announced his retirement while a state ethics commission is three months into a six-month investigation of his conduct. Mitch Morrow was criticized in a Department of Justice report for allegedly abusing his office and assuring his son was hired by the Department of Corrections and paid more than is typical for the position. The Oregonian reports

Morrow remained on the job after the Oregon Government Ethics Commission concluded in April that it had objective reasons to believe Morrow had violated state ethics laws. Ethics officials opened a of full investigation Morrow, saying the process could take six months. Morrow contends he did nothing wrong, and prisons spokeswoman Betty Bernt said Morrow had been planning his retirement for years.

Sheriff ’s sergeant killed in traffic crash SALEM (AP) — Salem police say a Polk County, Oregon, sheriff’s sergeant has died in a traffic crash on state Highway 22. The Statesman Journal reports that Salem officers responding to a single vehicle crash Friday afternoon found the victim was 48year-old Randy W. Whittaker of Dallas. Police say Whittaker was eastbound in the right lane when another vehicle passed. They say he moved into the left lane, lost control of his vehicle and struck the large cement barriers running along the side of the highway. A dog that ran from the vehicle after the crash was found and was being returned to the family. Sheriff Bob Wolfe said Whittaker was a wellrespected sergeant at the jail. He had been with the sheriff’s office for 15 years.

Tax refund: Not a good thing A friend of mine is the comptroller of a small corporation. As such, she is required to handle all aspects of that company’s finances including payroll. She takes the opportunity to figure and tweak the withholding from her own paycheck to reach her goal of neither owing taxes nor being due a refund on April 15. She’s really smart and fortunate to be able to track this so closely. Her goal is to always come within $100 of her total tax liability after itemizing her tax return. And she does. EVERYDAY I CHEAPSKATE a l w a y s wince with pain when a person tells me he or she is getting thousands of dollars in Mary a tax Hunt refund. And it’s e v e n worse when they do so with such gusto and pride — like it’s some kind of savings account. A righteous accomplishment. And invariably these are people who carry credit-card debt, convinced that they need it “just in case of emergencies,” followed by, “Hey, emergencies happen!” It makes no sense for you to willingly over pay your taxes every payday, and then depend on credit cards to make up the shortfall when something unexpected happens. Paying double-digit interest on a revolving credit-card balance just adds insult to the financial injury. Another friend, a single mother, just recently got $4,500 in the mail as a federal tax refund. She’s one who struggles, depending heavily on her credit cards to make it through the month. Imagine if she would wise up and adjust her withholding so that the nearly $400 monthly overage stayed in her paycheck. And imagine further that she put that $400 into a special safe place just for emergencies. She would have the $4,500 available to stay out of debt. That just may be the money she needs to live financially responsibly. Instead, she finds herself deeper in debt than she was a year ago and sees her tax refund as some kind of a windfall — found money, a gift from the government. I just don’t get why people are so content to over pay their taxes and then receive not even a nickel in interest for having lent it to the government all year long. I hope you just don’t get it either. If you have already or plan to receive a big refund in the future, do this: Divide the amount of your refund by the number of pay periods you have each year. Or if you are self-employed, divide by four. This is a rough estimate of the amount you are over paying each pay period, or quarterly if you pay estimated withholding. Make an appointment with the department or person who handles payroll and request to fill out a new W-4 form. Ask this person to assist you in determining how many dependents to claim to make the proper adjustment. Or go to IRS.gov and use the withholding calculator. If you are selfemployed have your accountant make the adjustment to your quarterly estimated forms. One last thing. Before you see a dime of this adjustment in your next paycheck, take the steps necessary to make sure the overage does not evaporate or become absorbed in your daily spending. Have that amount automatically deposited into a savings account so you can keep you eye on it and so it will be there when you need it.

Kerry returns to Mideast to push for cease-fire

D I G E S T Rebels have taken plane crash bodies HRABOVE, Ukraine (AP) — Separatist rebels have spirited away all 196 bodies that workers recovered from the Malaysia Airlines crash site to an unknown location, Ukraine’s emergency services said Sunday. Associated Press journalists saw the pro-Russia rebels putting bagged bodies onto trucks at the crash site Saturday in rebel-held eastern Ukraine and driving them away. On Sunday morning, AP journalists saw no bodies and no armed rebels at the crash site and emergency workers were searching the sprawling fields only for body parts.

Tobacco company vows to fight damages

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is making a renewed push for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas with another trip to the Middle East after the civilian death toll in the conflict sharply escalated over the weekend. Kerry left Washington early Monday for Cairo, where he will join diplomatic efforts to resume a truce that had been agreed to in November 2012. He will urge the militant Palestinian group to accept a cease-fire agreement offered by Egypt that would halt nearly two weeks of fighting. More than 500 Palestinians and 20 Israelis have been killed in that time. The Obama administration, including Kerry, is sharpening its criticism of Hamas for its rocket attacks on Israel and other provocative acts, like tunneling under the border. It is also toning down an earlier rebuke of Israel for attacks on the Gaza Strip that have killed civilians, including children. In a statement Sunday evening, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the U.S. and international partners were “deeply concerned about the risk of further escalation, and the loss of more innocent life.” Two Americans, Max Steinberg of California and Nissim Carmeli of Texas, who fought for the Israel Defense Forces were killed in

But Hamas doesn’t “give a whit about the Palestinians,” Netanyahu said. “All they want is more and more civilian deaths.” The prime minister said his top goal is to restore a sustainable peace, but he then will ask the international community to consider demilitarizing Gaza to rid Hamas of its rockets and shut down the tunnels leading into Israel.

US outlines case against Russia on downed plane WASHINGTON (AP) — Video of a rocket launcher, one surface-to-air missile missing, leaving the likely launch site. Imagery showing the firing. Calls claiming credit for the strike. Recordings said to reveal a cover-up at the crash site. “A buildup of extraordinary circumstantial evidence ... it’s powerful here,” said Secretary of State John Kerry, a former prosecutor, and it holds Russian-supported rebels in eastern Ukraine responsible for shooting down Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, with the Kremlin complicit in the deaths of nearly 300 passengers and crew members. “This is the moment of truth for Russia,” said Kerry, some of leveling Washington’s harshest criticism of Moscow since the crisis in Ukraine began. “Russia is supporting these separatists. Russia is arming these separatists. Russia is training these separatists, and Russia has not yet done the things necessary in order to try to bring them under control,” he said. In a round of television interviews, Kerry cited a mix of U.S. and Ukrainian intelligence and social media reports that he said “obviously points a very clear finger at the separatists” for firing the missile that brought the plane down, killing nearly 300 passengers and crew. “It’s pretty clear that this is a system that was transferred from Russia into the hands of separatists,” he said. Video of an SA-11 launcher, with one of its missiles missing and leaving the likely launch site, has been authenticated, he said. An Associated Press journalist saw a missile launcher in rebel-held territory close to the crash site just hours before the plane was brought down Thursday. “There’s a buildup of extraordinary circumstantial evidence,” Kerry said. “We picked up the imagery of this launch. We know the trajectory. We know where it came from. We know the timing, and it was exactly at the time that this aircraft disappeared from the radar. We also know from voice identification that the separatists were bragging about shooting it down afterward.”

PROSA Sees a merger of dance, peace Continued from Page A1 dancing in parks, and you are dancing in humble spaces, and in little private showings, and it doesn’t matter. It’s the same feeling. It’s a part of you, and it’s a religion in a way. You are committed to it and it’s a part of your life.” Her desire now is to make it a part of other people’s lives, or to at least have it make a positive impact on their lives. She is finishing graduate school with a degree in peace building and conflict resolution at NYU. She also works for a non-governmental organization called Doctors Without Borders, which delivers emergency medical aid to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters or exclusion from health care. All of which, she hopes, will help her achieve a very specific objective. “It’s always about finding the balance between my humanitarian interests and my dance interests,” she said, “And having this grand goal someday of really trying to blend those worlds.” To that end, she is working to complete creation of her own professional dance company in New York called the Humanistics Dance Company. Prosa foresees a merger of dance and peace building through an art form that has always, for her, been more about communication than commerce. She has been able to sample both sides, even getting

An earlier World article described that experience where she worked as a double for the lead in the movie “Black Swan.” “That was something that was really kind of a really freak thing,” Prosa said. “One of those magic New York moments where you find yourself in the right place at the right time.” As challenging as that experience was, she knows an even greater fight lies ahead as she battles to get Humanistics where she wants it to be. It is a highly competitive world getting a dance company going in New York, where a lot of talented companies, with a lot of talented artists, vie for ever-shrinking funding sources. “It’s a tough world for sure,” she admits. But, that trademark focus is strong. “A lot of what we talk about is developing a social justice component and providing dance in domestic violence organizations and working with youth,and making sure it gives back to the community,” she said. “Big visions. We’re starting small, we’re in the start-up phase, but there is a clear direction.” As she embarks on this new adventure, what does she tell young dancers from the same small town where she grew up about achieving their own goals? What would she tell a young Kim Prosa? “Just be fearless. What’s the worst that can happen?” she said. “Fall on your face, mess up, who cares, just be fearless. Go mess up, that’s when the greatest things happen, you know, when you just go stumble around a little bit.”

The increase came partly at the cost of primary education, driving a wedge between Atiyeh and state teachers unions.

Atiyeh made frequent trips around Oregon, and was proud of having visited every county fair and every city in Oregon as governor.

Rae Copitka, left, and Loma Wharton were two of the day's speakers Saturday at the Patriot's Gathering held at the Pony Village Mall.They were talking about land use and "Agenda 21." Several other speakers talked about such items at Common Core and the Coos County Home Rule Charter 2014.

PATRIOTS They fight one issue at a time Continued from Page A1 McCaffree has battled the eye rolls for the last decade, showing up at every public meeting regarding Jordan Cove she can find. This is how meetings like Patriots Saturday’s Gathering get started, Taylor said. They attract a wide variety of people, from Oath Keepers Southern Oregon coordinator Tom McKirgan to Lynn Mystic-Healer, a frequent local protester of LNG and other environmental issues. Booths lined the

ROADBLOCK Continued from Page A1 Dean tweeted a link to a story about the vote and wrote, “We need a new Senator.” In the end, though, no Democrats or Republicans signed up to challenge her. Jake Weigler, a spokesman for the Oregon Alliance to Prevent Gun Violence, said advocates across the state “are working to elect more senators that will support common-sense steps to keep guns out of the hands of criminals.” If the Democrats pick up a single seat, it will have a profound effect, said Kevin Starrett, a lobbyist for the gun

with pamphlets walls describing their causes. They also don’t come from identical political backgrounds. They’re Republicans, Libertarians, “reformed yellow dog Democrats,” etc. “Green Party! That’s all I have to say!” shouted Mystic-Healer before storming out of the meeting. “How about red, white and blue?” said Loma Wharton of The Liberators, a grassroots group whose mission is to hold elected officials accountable to their oath of office and the U.S. Constitution. “... when they (politicians) see this kind of conflict within the fringe, they think, well they’ll never

have enough organization to do anything,” Taylor said. “So they roll their eyes. Who cares?” So how do they get anything done if those in office don’t take them seriously? “You fight it one issue at a time,” Taylor said. “We may not be able to put people into office ... but when you take an issue to the people, hands down we win every time.” That’s how Wharton and Rae Copitka propose Americans take back local control of their government: county by county, then state by state. “It’s just like eating an elephant,” Copitka said. “How do you do it? One bite at a time.” When these groups come

to public meetings, they often try to speak to several issues at once. “When you try to put all the issues together, it looks so confused and so discombobulated that people go, ‘Oh, look at those radicals!’” Taylor said. “I don’t agree with everyone in this group, in this meeting, but we do have a common cause to protect the individual. That’s what it comes down to is we’re all individuals here, whereas a lot of others are just special interest groups.” Reporter Chelsea Davis can be reached at 541-2691222, ext. 239, or by email at chelsea.davis@theworldlink.com.

rights group Oregon Firearms Federation. “I don’t think there’s anybody who underestimates how tight this situation is on that side of the building.” Johnson, who represents Oregon’s rural, blue-collar northwestern corner, said it’s impossible to speculate on what might happen if her party expands its Senate majority. "My approach to legislation has been to read the bills, to understand the issues,” Johnson said. “I mean really understand them, not the gross simplification that happened in some of the press. Then make a decision guided by the values of my district and guided by my own inter-

nal compass as a native Oregonian.” Sixteen of the Senate’s 30 seats are on the ballot this year, but only a handful of races are likely to be competitive. Liberals may be able to get their crucial 16th vote if they can win both of the top two races — for seats now held by Democratic Sen. Alan Bates, of Medford, and Republican Sen. Betsy Close, of Albany — without losing others. Bates faces a rematch of his razor-thin 2010 victory over Dave Dotterrer. Close faces Democratic Rep. Sara Gelser, of Corvallis, in a district that favors Democrats. Both parties have their eyes on a handful of other seats,

too. Democrats think they have a shot against Sens. Bruce Starr of Hillsboro, Alan Olsen of Canby, and Chuck Thomsen of Hood River. Republicans have drawn a big target on Senate President Peter Courtney and have recruited a longtime county commissioner to run against him. The Republican State Leadership Committee, a national group that works to help the GOP pick up legislative seats, said that Oregon’s House and Senate are both on its list of 16 top-targeted Democratic legislative chambers, although most observers agree that controlling the House is a longshot for the GOP.

South Coast wins state tournament BY GEORGE ARTSITAS The World

NORTH BEND — The 13-year-old South Coast Babe Ruth All-Stars defended their turf this weekend, taking out Umpqua Valley 7-6 in the championship game to win the Southern Oregon State Tournament at Clyde Allen Field on Sunday. South Coast got a big double in the sixth inning from Cory Stover to inch ahead and punch its ticket to the Pacific Northwest Regional Tournament in Helena, Mont., starting Aug. 1. “Everything’s pretty exciting right now,” South Coast coach Walter White said postgame in the parking lot after sneaking away from well-wishers. “Some of these have been together since T-ball, so it’s nice to see their growth and battle back.” The win was a slice of redemption for South Coast after losing to Umpqua Valley earlier in the tournament Saturday. South Coast got itself going in the second inning, when Grant Woolsey scored after reaching on an error to tie the game at 1-1. South Coast took the lead when Stover got caught in a pickle between home and third, but Umpqua Valley pitcher Brenden Huffman slipped, allowing Stover enough time to scamper home. “It was a pitching duel and a small-ball battle,” White said. “One run at a time, one inning at a time.” Umpqua Valley mounted a 5-3 lead by the fifth, but South Coast answered. The South Coast had three of its nine hits in the fifth, with Griffin Lavigne hitting a clutch screamer in between third and shortstop to bring in Jayden Frank and knot up the score. A few moments later, Mane Freeman pounced on a passed-ball opportunity, belly-flopping into

Leading off the bottom of the sixth, Stover took a Kade Seeley pitch to left field, the ball carrying over Gabe Burke’s head and dropping right in front of the warning track. Stover came

around to score on a passed ball, putting the South Coast up 7-6. “I just kept running when I saw it drop,” Stover said of his double. “It felt good. We really needed it.” Frank closed out the game by retiring the side in order in the seventh and the celebration was on. Frank threw his glove in the air immediately after striking out Bo LeCoure to clinch the win and the players swarmed in front of the dugout congratulating each other. SEE BABE RUTH | B4

Area’s 15-year-old team advances to regionals THE WORLD The South Coast 15-year-old all-star team completed a perfect run through the Southern Oregon State Tournament in Klamath Falls on Sunday with an 8-3 win over the host team to earn a trip to the regional event. Wayde Doane pitched a complete game and South Coast scored five runs in the fourth inning to break open a close game. The Pacific Northwest

Regional Tournament for the 13to 15-year-old division starts Aug. 5 in Baker City. South Coast led 3-2 coming to bat in the fourth inning. With one out, Bradley Haga reached on an error and then South Coast got consecutive singles by Johny Solis, Chase Dibala, Braden Denton, Neal Rose and Joe Hixenbaugh on the way to scoring five runs. Hixenbaugh also had a triple and scored in the third inning.

South Coast got two runs in the second, by Nick Minton, who walked, and Joshua Phillips, who hit a single. Doane, meanwhile, pitched a two-hitter with four strikeouts. He got help in the seventh inning, when Minton threw out a runner at the plate from center field. On Saturday, the South Coast squad beat Klamath Falls 5-2 and Siskiyous 14-4 in five innings. Doane and Mason Jussila combined on a four-hitter in the game

against Klamath Falls. Doane also had two hits, including a double. Minton went 3-for-3 with a double and triple. Against Siskiyous, Denton went 4-for-4 and Cody Hollingsworth had a single and double. While the 15-year-old team won the tournament, the South Coast’s 14-year-old squad went winless in its state tournament at Klamath Falls, and was eliminated Sunday in a 14-8 loss.

Rory rolls to his third major championship HOYLAKE, England (AP) — Walking off the 18th green as the British Open champion, Rory McIlroy kept gazing at all the greats on golf’s oldest trophy. On the claret jug, his name is etched in silver below Phil Mickelson. In the record book, he is listed behind Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods as the youngest to get three legs of the career Grand Slam. And over four days at Royal Liverpool, he had no equal. “I’m immensely proud of myself,” McIlroy said after his two-shot victory Sunday that was never really in doubt. “To sit here, 25 years of age, and win my third major championship and be three-quarters of the way to a career Grand Slam ... yeah, I never dreamed of being at this point in my career so quickly.” He had to work a little harder than he wanted for this one. Staked to a six-shot lead going into the final round, McIlroy turned back every challenge. He made two key birdies around the turn, and delivered a majestic drive at just the right moment to close with a 1-under 71 and complete his wire-to-wire victory. In another major lacking tension over the final hour, what brought The Open to life was the potential of its champion. After nearly two years of turmoil, McIlroy looked like the kid

The Associated Press

Rory McIlroy celebrates winning the British Open at Royal Liverpool on Sunday. who shattered scoring records to win the 2011 U.S. Open at Congressional, and who won the PGA Championship at Kiawah Island by a record eight shots a year later. Boy Wonder is back. Or maybe he’s just getting started again. McIlroy won by two shots over Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler to become the first start-to-finish winner since Woods at St. Andrews in 2005. Even with one major left this year, the Northern Irishman already is looking ahead to Augusta National next April for a shot at the slam.

“I’ve really found my passion again for golf,” McIlroy said. “Not that it ever dwindled, but it’s what I think about when I get up in the morning. It’s what I think about when I go to bed. I just want to be the best golfer that I can be. And I know if I can do that, then trophies like this are within my capability.” McIlroy put an end to this major with a powerful drive down the fairway at the par-5 16th, setting up a two-putt birdie to restore his lead to three shots. He finished with two pars, tapping in for par on the 18th green.

North Coos moved within a game of clinching a share of the American Legion Area 4 North Division title, splitting a doubleheader with the Roseburg Umpqua Lions on Saturday. North Coos sits at 10-4 in league play, with a final doubleheader against the Umpqua Lions at Clyde Allen Field today. North Coos needs at least one win to ensure a share of the title with Sheldon (9-5), which finishes the league season Thursday against the Grants Pass Miners. North Coos was guaranteed a spot in the Legion A State Tournament on Sunday, when Grants Pass split a doubleheader with Roseburg Pepsi (8-6). North Coos owns the tiebreaker over Roseburg Pepsi by virtue of taking three of the four games in the season series. The Waterfront won the opener against the Umpqua Lions on Saturday 5-3 as Jon Bennison pitched a complete game and also had two hits, a run and an RBI. Marquece Williams had an RBI double and a single and scored a run. Robert Martino had two runs and Griffin Kaufmann had two hits. But North Coos couldn’t sustain the momentum in the nightcap, losing 5-1 — the first league win for Roseburg. Kaufmann pitched a complete game in the second game and also had two of the four hits by North Coos. He drove in the only run, bringing home Williams, who had reached on an error. Trey Cornish and Jared Hampel had the only other hits for North Coos. Today’s first game starts at 4 p.m. North Coos also hosts Three Rivers in a nonleague doubleheader Tuesday and North Medford in another nonleague twin bill Friday.

Three Rivers earns spot in postseason THE WORLD The Three Rivers Sandblasters finished their league season with a split against Corvallis on Thursday, earning a spot in the postseason. The Sandblasters lost the opener 11-2, but won the nightcap 5-2 behind a brilliant pitching performance by Connor Qualley. The Siuslaw pitcher threw a five-hitter with five strikeouts. Tyler Campbell, Brad Snow and Taylor Travess had two hits each for Three Rivers. With the split, the Sandblasters finished the league schedule at 69 after an 0-7 start. Three Rivers is in fourth place, with the top five teams from Area 3 advancing to the state tournament or super regionals. Corvallis is 5-8 and the MidValley Rockets are 4-9, but they finish the season against each other, meaning they both can’t pass the Sandblasters. Three Rivers finishes the regular season Tuesday with a doubleheader at Clyde Allen Field against North Coos. The first pitch is scheduled for 4 p.m.

The hard part was trying not to cry when his mother, Rosie, came onto the green with tears streaming down her face. She was not at the other two majors. Before leaving, McIlroy turned and applauded the fans in the horseshoe arena who were witness to another masterpiece. This could have been another romp except for a shaky stretch early for McIlroy, and solid efforts from Garcia and Fowler. Garcia pulled within two shots with four holes to play until he put his tee shot in a pot bunker just right of the 15th green. His first shot failed to get over the 4-foot sodden wall and rolled back into the sand. He made bogey, and two birdies over the final three holes were not enough. Garcia shot 66 and was runner-up in a major for the fourth time. “I think that we gave it a good effort,” Garcia said. “And there was someone a little bit better.” Fowler, playing in the final group for the second straight major, didn’t do anything wrong. He just didn’t do enough right to make up a six-shot deficit. Fowler played without a bogey, made three birdies on the last four holes and shot 67. “He played awesome,” Fowler said. “And it was just kind of fun to throw a few shots at him coming. To see him win was pretty cool.”

NIMES, France (AP) — Almost at the line, Jack Bauer and Martin Elmiger were exhausted but could see it coming — their first Tour de France stage victory. Those last 50 meters, however, got in the way. A bunch of sprinters leading the pack came speeding like a runaway train and plowed past the huffing breakaway duo in the final milliseconds. Stage 15 belonged to Norwegian speedster Alexander Kristoff, his second stage victory in this Tour. The 138-mile (222-kilometer) stage went smoothly for overall leader Vincenzo Nibali of Italy. He made sure his main rivals couldn’t claw back any time, and he kept his yellow jersey by finishing in the trailing pack.

Yankees complete sweep of Reds THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Jacoby Ellsbury got four hits and scored the winning run in the ninth inning on Brian McCann’s pop-fly single that dropped near three Cincinnati Reds in shallow right field, giving the New York Yankees a 3-2 victory Sunday. Ellsbury and Derek Jeter each had an RBI single for the Yankees, who finished a three-game sweep in their first series after the All-Star break. Ellsbury also MLB stole two bases and made a sliding catch Recap in center field that saved a run. He reached safely all five times up, including a leadoff single in the ninth off Aroldis Chapman (0-3). David Robertson (1-2) pitched a perfect ninth to give the Reds their seasonhigh, sixth straight road loss.

NATIONAL LEAGUE Padres 2, Mets 1: Odrisamer Despaigne came within four outs of the first no-hitter in San Diego’s 46-year major league history, and the Padres beat the New York Mets on Seth Smith’s run-scoring infield single in the ninth. Making his fifth major league start, Despaigne didn’t allow a hit until Daniel Murphy doubled to left-center with two outs in the eighth. San Diego, the only active major league franchise without a no-hitter, was playing its 7,264th regular-season game. Dodgers 4, Cardinals 3: Adrian Gonzalez hit a tiebreaking single in the ninth inning off St. Louis closer Trevor Rosenthal and Los Angeles salvaged the finale of a three-game series. The Dodgers pulled into a virtual tie for first place with San Francisco in the NL West despite a so-so outing from Clayton Kershaw, whose run of seven straight starts allowing one or fewer runs came to an end. Yasiel Puig did not play after getting hit by a pitch on the left hand a day earlier and the Dodgers finished without Hanley Ramirez, who was taken out in the ninth — also after getting struck on the left hand. Marlins 3, Giants 2: NL hits leader Casey McGehee homered for the second time this season, and Miami took the lead for good on a wild pitch by Tim Lincecum in the seventh inning to beat

San Francisco. McGehee came in with 118 hits and 54 RBIs, and the two-run homer in the first inning was his first since May 10. Lincecum (9-6) allowed three runs in seven innings, ending his streak of wins in four consecutive starts. Pirates 5, Rockies 3: Andrew McCutchen hit a tiebreaking single in the seventh inning, Neil Walker followed with a home run, and Pittsburgh overcame a three-run deficit to beat Colorado for a three-game sweep. Nationals 5, Brewers 4: Jayson Werth hit a game-winning RBI double in the bottom of the ninth after the Brewers tied it in the top of the inning, and Washington edged Milwaukee. Braves 8, Phillies 2: Tommy La Stella drove in three runs, and Chris Johnson hit a two-run homer to back Alex Wood (7-7) and help Atlanta rout Philadelphia. Diamondbacks 3, Cubs 2: Josh Collmenter threw seven sharp innings, Arizona scored on an unusual play in the sixth inning and then completed a three-game sweep of the Chicago Cubs. The only run off Collmenter (8-5) came on Anthony Rizzo’s 23rd home run of the season and third of the series. Arizona’s go-ahead run scored from third base when the first baseman Rizzo caught a pop foul while tumbling into the camera well. By rule, runners are awarded a base when a defensive player carries the ball out of play.

AMERICAN LEAGUE Angels 6, Mariners 5: Grant Green hit a bases-loaded single off Fernando Rodney with two outs in the ninth inning after Albert Pujols tied it with an RBI double, and the Los Angeles Angels pulled out a victory over Seattle. Rodney (1-4), the former Angels’ closer, replaced Joe Beimel with one out in the eighth and retired the next two batters. He entered the ninth attempting to complete a five-out save and record the 200th of his career, but the Angels rallied for their major league-leading 30th come-from-behind victory. It was Rodney’s third blown save in 30 chances this season. Blue Jays 9, Rangers 6: Melky Cabrera hit a tiebreaking homer in the seventh inning, and Toronto beat slumping Texas. Cabrera drove in three runs and fin-

in the past 28 games, as the Blue Jays won their first series since sweeping a two-game set against Milwaukee on July 1-2. Tigers 5, Indians 1: Drew Smyly (6-8) allowed four hits in seven innings, and Torii Hunter hit a two-run homer, helping Detroit beat Cleveland and avoid a four-game sweep. The AL Central-leading Tigers (5441) stopped a four-game losing streak and increased their lead over Cleveland to 51⁄2 games. Red Sox 6, Royals 0: Jon Lester allowed no earned runs for the third time in four starts, and Boston completed a three-game sweep of Kansas City. In eight innings, the All-Star lefthander struck out eight and gave up two walks and four hits. Only one Royals player reached third base. Lester (10-7) is 4-0 with a 0.85 ERA over his last seven starts with 47 strikeouts and eight walks in a span of 52 2-3 innings. He has yielded just one earned run in 31 innings. Astros 11, White Sox 7: Matt Dominguez hit a two-run homer and a tiebreaking RBI double, and Houston tied its season high with 17 hits in a win over the Chicago White Sox that prevented a three-game sweep. Rays 5, Twins 3: James Loney had two hits and two RBIs, and Chris Archer (6-5) won consecutive decisions for the first time this season as Tampa Bay topped Minnesota for its fifth straight win. The Rays, who went 11-4 going into the All-Star break, matched their longest winning streak of the season against the punchless Twins, who scored six runs in the three-game series. Athletics 10, Orioles 2: Sonny Gray struck out eight to win his fifth consecutive decision, and Oakland pounded Baltimore. Gray (11-3) gave up two runs, one earned, two hits and two walks in 6 2-3 innings. The 24-year-old right-hander hasn’t lost since June 13 at the New York Yankees. The major-league best A’s (61-37) overpowered the AL East-leading Orioles (53-44) in the final regular-season meeting between the playoff-contending clubs. Oakland had 15 hits, chasing starter Kevin Gausman (4-3) in the fifth.

Sparks fire coach after team’s slow start LOS ANGELES — Carol Ross has been fired as coach of the slumping Los Angeles Sparks, and she will be replaced by general manager Penny Toler for the rest of the season. The team made the move on Sunday. The Sparks are in fourth place in the Western 1 Conference, 8 ⁄ 2 games behind first-place Phoenix. Ross had a 61-36 record in 1 2 ⁄2 years with the Sparks, including two playoff appearances. Toler says it was time to bring in a different energy to the team. Also out is assistant coach Gail Goestenkors, who was elected to the women’s Basketball Hall of Fame on Saturday. Toler was the first woman to score a basket in the WNBA in 1997, when she played for the Sparks. She retired from playing in 1999 and became the team’s general manager in 2000, presiding over the Sparks’ back-to-back WNBA titles in 2001 and 2002.

SYLVANIA, Ohio — Seventeen-year-old Lydia Ko broke free from a late tie with So Yeon Ryu, hitting a wedge to 4 feet for birdie on the 72nd hole on Sunday to win the Marathon Classic. She became the youngest player to top $1 million in career earnings on the LPGA Tour. Ryu had poured in a bigbreaking, 25-foot birdie putt on the 17th to pull even. But then Ko stuck her approach at the par-5 closing hole and calmly rolled in the birdie putt for a 6-under 65 that left her at 15-under 269. It was her second LPGA win as a pro to go with the two Canadian Open titles she grabbed as an amateur.

on first playoff hole PHOENIX (AP) — Showtime Shoni had quite the All-Star debut. Shoni Schimmel, a rookie who doesn’t even start for her own team, put on a record-breaking performance — scoring 29 points to help the East beat the West 125-124 on Saturday in the first WNBA All-Star game to go to overtime. Hitting big shot after big shot in the fourth quarter and overtime, including a behind-the-head flip over 6foot-8 Brittney Griner, Schimmel gave the fans a great show. Schimmel’s only averaging 7.1 points in limited time for Atlanta, yet she was voted in as an All-Star starter because of a huge Native American following she has. With 17 family members — the boys wearing “Rez Ball Rules” t-shirts, cheering her on — Schimmel earned MVP honors. “Being Native American, it’s a huge accomplishment to go out there and be in the WNBA,” Schimmel said. “To have the fans look up to me

It’s huge. I take on my shoulders because I enjoy it.” Tamika Catchings, an AllStar for a record-tying ninth time, made a layup with 6.9 seconds to go to give the East the lead and then knocked the ball away from Skylar Diggins on the defensive end

to seal the victory. Diggins finished with 27 points and seven assists, leading a furious West rally to force overtime. Brittney Griner, of the host Mercury, scored 17 points, including the third WNBA All-Star dunk, for the West. Schimmel, who grew up on a reservation in the tiny northeast Oregon town of

Mission broke the All-Star Game scoring record of 23 set by Candace Parker last year. Schimmel earned her “Showtime” nickname at Louisville. Yet it hasn’t really carried over to the Dream yet. She was drafted eighth by the team and has only started twice. She’s just the third reserve player ever to start a WNBA All-Star game, according to STATS. Any grumbling about her inclusion vanished in an electric second half and overtime, when she scored 24 points. “It was awesome, just to be able to go out there and play my game, have fun,” Schimmel said, “feel free to go out there and play ‘rez ball.”’ With Diggins and Griner in their second year and Schimmel her first, it was a showcase of the league’s young talent. “It just shows you the future of our league is so bright,” Diggins said. Maya Moore scored 24 for the West. Tina Charles had 19, Chiney Ogwumike 15, Catchings 14 and Angel McCoughtry 13 for the East.

Sports TOUR From Page B1 After two days in the Alps, Sunday’s stage offered some relief over a flat course from Tallard, southeast France’s parachuting capital, toward Nimes, known for its Roman arena and bullfighting. More relief comes today — a second rest day. This ride showed yet again on the Tour how mighty efforts so often go unrewarded. Bauer is a New Zealander who had a better shot of holding off the sprinters than Swiss champion Elmiger. Bauer dropped his bike after the finish line, sat on the ground and cupped his face in his hands, crying. They had led nearly from the starter’s gun. “It’s a fantasy for any cyclist to win a stage at the Tour and especially for a Kiwi

cyclist, not many of us turn professional and not many of us get a chance to start the Tour de France,” Bauer said. The 29-year-old rider came to the Tour to help Garmin-Sharp leader Andrew Talansky, who dropped out before Stage 12 because of injuries from an earlier crash. The pack perfectly timed its move on the breakaway duo and proved too strong. Bauer was pedaling with his last remaining strength, and when he looked back a last time they were already zooming by. He finished in 10th place, with Elmiger 16th. “I really gave it absolutely everything, and as you can see from my meltdown at the finish I was pretty disappointed to come away empty-handed,” Bauer added, noting he’s usually a support rider. “I thought I had it, but then I realized in

Alexander Kristoff celebrates as he crosses the finish line to win the 15th stage of the Tour de France on Sunday. the last 50 meters that I had nothing.” The Swiss rider with IAM Cycling took it more in stride. This, after all, wasn’t the first breakaway to fail in this Tour. “I am not disappointed because I actually did not

have the best legs today,” Elmiger said. “Being caught by the pack is not so bad when you are convinced you have given everything. As I have already said three times this Tour after breaks have failed, one of these days the wheels will turn in my favor.”

Kristoff, a Katusha rider who also won Stage 12, sighed in relief. “It was a little bit late for comfort. It was very close,” he said. “I thought I would be second. ... We turned on the gas.” “Of course, that’s a pity for them, but I don’t feel sorry for them,” he said. “Normally, the break should never have had a chance, but they did. They were really strong guys. ... That must have been really hard.” With about 12 miles (20 kilometers) left, rain briefly doused the riders, though skies brightened by the end. A series of roundabouts and leg fatigue among the sprinters after the Alpine stages gave an advantage to the breakaway pair until the final seconds. Nibali kept his main rivals for the Tour title at bay. He leads Spain’s Alejandro Valverde by 4:37 while

Romain Bardet of France is third, 4:50 behind. American Tejay van Garderen is fifth, 5:49 back. Nibali, the leader of Kazakh team Astana, is in good shape to take the yellow jersey when the three-week race ends next Sunday in Paris. Some of his closest rivals have already said the race is now for second place.

STAGE 14 Rafal Majka of Poland won the 14th stage of the Tour de France — a second day of punishing Alpine climbs and over the highest point on the race — as Nibali again extended his overall lead by finishing second on Saturday. Majka led a breakaway on the final climb in the 177kilometer (110-mile) rollercoaster course over two infamous climbs, including the 2,360-meter (7,742-foot) Izoard pass, and a finish up to Risoul ski station.

Sports Rookie Chase Elliott captures third win

The Associated Press

Mike Conway leaps out of his car after winning the second race of the Toronto Indy on Sunday.

Bourdais, Conway win in Toronto TORONTO (AP) — IndyCar ran two races in Toronto on Sunday, where rain wreaked havoc on both the schedule and driver strategy. The series had planned to run one race Saturday and one on Sunday until rain washed out the first event. It instead began Sunday morning, roughly five hours before the start of the second race, and won by Sebastien Bourdais. He broke a 52-race losing streak dating to 2007 in claiming a dominating win on the dry street course at Exhibition Place. But the rain returned for the second race, and IndyCar officials moved the start up 10 minutes in an attempt to run as much as possible in dry conditions. The sky eventually did open, the track became slick and drivers darted to pit road for rain tires. When the track began to dry, Mike Conway gambled and made an early stop to remove his rain tires. A caution minutes later sent the bulk of the field to pit road to change their tires, and Conway shot up the leaderboard. Conway was fifth on the restart, but his dry tires were far superior to the drivers still racing on rain tires, and he quickly moved through the field and into the lead. The race, which had been scheduled to run 65 laps or 80 minutes, whichever came first, then became a timed race. A multicar accident stopped the clock for a cleanup with 4 minutes, 32 seconds remaining, and set up one final restart. Conway pulled away on the restart and easily held off Tony Kanaan. “It was really difficult conditions

and we were kind of struggling for a bit,” Conway said. “As soon as I saw the path and a dry line, I knew it was time to come in (for dry tires). It was great from there and we just kind of took off and just controlled the race.” It was the second win of the season for Conway, who walked away from IndyCar at the end of 2012 season because he no longer wanted to race on ovals. He was hired this year to split the seat with driver/owner Ed Carpenter, who was willing to give up his car on road and street courses. Ed Carpenter Racing has three victories this season, including Conway’s win at Texas. But the car owner credited the driver for making the call to come in for dry tires. “That’s Mike,” Carpenter said. “He was out there on the track and he said he was ready for drys. We probably thought it was a little early, so this (win) is definitely all him and he did a great job.” Kanaan, third in the first race of the day, was the only IndyCar driver to finish on the podium in both events. Will Power finished third as Chevrolet swept the podium in both races. Bourdais led points leader Helio Castroneves and Kanaan in the first race. Bourdais, who scored his first win since returning to the U.S. in 2011, was ninth in the second race. The rain during Race 2 caused one frightening moment when drivers began to slide on the track when the shower first started. Juan Pablo Montoya slipped off course into a tire

barrier, and was hit from behind moments later by rookie Mikhail Aleshin. The contact lifted Montoya’s car off its back wheels, Aleshin slid under the car, and Montoya’s car landed on top of Aleshin. Montoya’s car had to be lifted by a tow truck off of Aleshin, and it dangled in the air with the Colombian still in the cockpit. An uninjured Aleshin returned to his pit stand and showed off his helmet, which was marred by visible tire marks. “It was not nice at all because I was sitting under the car,” the Russian driver said. “It was getting so hot from (Montoya’s) car, I couldn’t breathe at all because the car is very hot. ... It was not a nice feeling at all.” Race 1 had its own harrowing moment. It came to an almost immediate halt when a multicar crash led to a red flag on the opening lap. After a long delay, racing resumed with Bourdais leading the field to green. He never really had to look back and led all but six of the 65 laps. It was Bourdais’ first victory since the 2007 Champ Car season finale in Mexico City, but the 32nd of his career. That broke a tie with Paul Tracy and Dario Franchitti to give the Frenchman eighth place on the alltime wins list. “I’ve got a big smile across my face and I can’t seem to get rid of it,” Bourdais said after the victory. “The whole race I was stressed out, it felt too easy, it felt like it was way too much under control, and it felt like it was going to go wrong at some point.”

Rosberg wins home Formula One race HOCKENHEIM, Germany (AP) — Nico Rosberg won the German Grand Prix on Sunday to stretch his lead in the Formula One drivers’ championship over Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, who finished third after starting 20th. “It’s an amazing feeling to win at home. It’s a very special day,” said Rosberg, who led throughout to become the first German to triumph at Hockenheim since Michael Schumacher won in 2006. Hamilton, who crashed in qualifying and survived a number of scrapes throughout the race, could not pass Valtteri Bottas in the closing laps and the Finn took second to give Williams its 300th F1 podium finish. “It was not easy and required input from all the engineers. Thanks to all the fans. I saw many Finnish flags so thank you,” Bottas said. Hamilton was pushed back to the penultimate row of the grid due to his qualifying crash and a penalty for changing his gearbox, but threaded his way through the field despite a broken front

OPEN From Page B1 It was the first time two straight majors were won wire to wire. Martin Kaymer did it last month at Pinehurst No. 2, taking the U.S. Open by eight shots. McIlroy, who finished at 17-under 271, wasn’t the only big winner Sunday. Ten years ago, his father and three of his friends each put up 100 pounds ($170) at 500-1 odds that McIlroy would win the British Open before he turned 26.

wing caused by a collision with former teammate Jenson Button of McLaren. His super-soft tires wore quickly in his final stint and he did not have the grip to get past Bottas. Rosberg leads Hamilton by 14 points going into next weekend’s race in Hungary. Four-time defending champ Sebastian Vettel was fourth, ahead of Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso who won his exciting battle with Red Bull’s Daniel Ricciardo for fifth. Alonso and Force India’s Nico Hulkenberg, who fin-

ished seventh, are the only drivers to have scored points in each of the ten races so far this season, and the Spaniard’s points finish means Ferrari has finished in the points for 77 consecutive races. There was a collision at the first corner between Kevin Magnussen’s McLaren and Felipe Massa’s Williams, which flipped over and slid across the run-off area in a shower of sparks. The McLaren also left the track and Ricciardo had to steer wide around them to avoid the damage, dropping

him down to 15th and compromising his race. Magnussen had to pit to repair damage to his left front tire but Massa’s race was over. The Brazilian emerged unhurt from the car to cheers from the crowd. “I’m okay. The accident was a little bit more scary watching than being inside. I just saw everything the other way around, but I am fine,” Massa said. “I am so disappointed at what happened. It’s another race and another car that has pushed me out and finished my race. With a car that that is very competitive and fast that’s so disappointing.” It was looking like it could be another a 1-2 for Mercedes as Hamilton quickly worked his way through the field. The Briton hit K imi Raikkonen’s Ferrari to overtake both the Finn and Ricciardo in a brave move at the hairpin on lap 13. A piece of Raikkonen’s front plate flew into the air. On lap 30, Hamilton tried to overtake Button on the hairpin but damaged his leftfront wing and that proved critical in finishing third rather than second.

The kid made good on the best with a brand of golf that had him marked early as golf’s next great player. McIlroy moved up to No. 2 in the world, perhaps on his way to regaining the No. 1 ranking that once looked as if it would be his for years. He ended the 2012 season by winning his second major and capturing the money title on the PGA Tour and European Tour. Since then, the road has been bumpier than some of the dunes at Hoylake. signed a McIlroy megadeal with Nike and

switched out all his equipment. He changed management for the second time, leading to lawsuits that are still to be decided. And after getting engaged to Caroline Wozniacki on New Year’s Eve, he abruptly broke off the engagement in May with a telephone call. His path to victory in The Open was much smoother. McIlroy made back-toback bogeys on the front nine and had to save par from a pot bunker to avoid a third. But he steadied himself with a birdie on the par-3ninth, and when Garcia made a 10-foot

eagle ahead of him on the 10th to cut the lead to two, McIlroy answered with a two-putt birdie. Garcia blinked when he could least afford it, leaving a shot in the bunker at No. 15 as McIlroy watched from the tee. Jim Furyk was among four players who tied the course record with a 65 to finish fourth. Tiger Woods was long gone. He finished his 75 as McIlroy was still on the practice range. Woods finished 69th — his worst finish over 72 holes in any major — and wound up 23 shots behind, his largest deficit ever in a major.

JOLIET, Ill. (AP) — Chase Elliott is proving to be a quick study. A few questions for his teammates and a couple practice laps, and he was ready to roll in his first race at Chicagoland Speedway. Elliott held off Trevor Bayne to earn his third Nationwide Series win of the season Saturday night, putting the rookie on top of the standings. “We had an awesome race going,” Elliott said. “I try to make the most of my practice laps. They gave me a good car. That gives me time to learn the track in practice.” Elliott had a strong car all day long for JR Motorsports, qualifying third and leading a race-high 85 laps. Bayne tried to chase him down on fresh tires in the final laps, but ran out of time. “The gap was closing,” Bayne said. “Probably 10 more laps, but we’ll never know.” Elliott, the son of former NASCAR champion Bill Elliott, also won in his first trips to Texas and Darlington this year. He leads the standings by seven points over Regan Smith. Chase Elliott said Smith and Kasey Kahne provided some importance advice about the track. “I did have some questions that I asked, and I definitely think that helped tonight,” he said. “So thankful to have a couple great teammates and good to have something to lean back on with those guys.” Kyle Larson was third, followed by Kahne and Ty Dillon to round out the top five. Brian Scott, who started on the pole, finished sixth and earned $100,000 in the second event of the four-race “Dash 4 Cash” bonus program. Kahne and Larson were the lone Sprint Cup regulars in the field on an off weekend

for NASCAR’s top series. Everyone comes back to Chicagoland in September on the same weekend that the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship begins at the 1.52-mile oval. The night began with a pair of Richard Childress Racing teammates in front after Scott and Dillon had the best showing in qualifying. It was Scott’s second pole of the season and No. 4 for his career. He won his first Nationwide Series pole at Chicagoland on Sept. 17, 2011. Scott led for 20 laps before Elliott moved in front. Erik Jones finished seventh in his Nationwide debut, driving Joe Gibbs Racing’s No. 20 Toyota. The 18-year-old Jones won the Truck Series race last week at Iowa in the No. 51 Kyle Busch Motorsports Toyota he shares with Busch. Jones also won a Truck race last year in Phoenix. Jones is expected to make two more Nationwide starts in Matt Kenseth’s car this season. “It was definitely a learning experience for me and everybody involved,” he said. “I feel like I learned a lot the whole night and really picked up on some things that will help me through the next couple.” Jones got some advice from Busch in preparation for his first run in the series. “A lot of what we talked about was working through traffic and it definitely helped out,” Jones said. “It was something I was able to apply right away tonight and use to my advantage.” Smith, who led the series standings by eight points over Elliott Sadler coming into the day, started 15th after a disappointing qualifying session, and it just got worse during the race. He never got into the mix on his way to 16th place.

Todd ends NHRA drought in Top Fuel MORRISON, Colo. (AP) — J.R. Todd earned his first Top Fuel win of the season and first since 2008, by racing to victory Sunday at the Mopar Mile-High Nationals at Bandimere Speedway. Todd outran Brittany Force with a pass of 3.878 seconds at 317.87 mph to the losing pass of Force at 3.968 at 297.35. This is the second win at Bandimere Speedway for Todd, who claimed his first career NHRA Drag

Racing Series win at the facility in 2006. “These things are hard to come by whether you are full time or part time,” said Todd, who returned to racing full time this season at the event in Gainesville. Robert Hight (Funny Car), Allen Johnson (Pro Stock) and Andrew Hines (Pro Stock Motorcycle) were winners in their respective categories at the NHRA Drag Racing Series event outside of Denver.

opportunity to go is its own reward. “I haven’t been to that many states, and I don’t think the rest of the boys have either, so it’s really good at this young of an age to get that type of experience,” Corbin said.

From Page B1 Stover led the charge offensively, going 3-for-3 with his key double in the sixth counting for South Coast’s only extra base hit in the game. Brendon Roberts and Lavigne both went 2for-3 with a pair of singles. The South Coast earned a spot in the championship game by beating Klamath Falls 17-7 earlier Sunday. South Coast had 11 hits and capitalized on 13 Klamath Falls errors. Frank went 4for-6 in the win. He had a two-run double in the second inning and an RBI single in the fourth and also scored a run. Brady Rohlik, Stover and Roberts scored three runs each. Stover went 3for-4 and also drove in two runs. Lavigne had two runs for South Coast and was one of three pitchers in the game. Corbin White started and worked three innings. Frank pitched the final two. Andrew Reynolds and Brandon McVey each scored twice for Klamath Falls, which was eliminated. McVey, Reynolds, Garrett Campbell, McCrea Hamilton and Zach Gibson all had two hits. Gibson drove in a pair of runs. Next for South Coast, Walter White will try to get some exhibition games in Roseburg next weekend to familiarize his team with the sweltering heat he anticipates in Montana.

SATURDAY On the tournament’s opening day, South Coast fell to Umpqua Valley 7-6 and beat Klamath Falls 12-2 in five innings. In the win, South Coast broke open a 2-2 game when nine straight batters reached base and eventually scored in the third inning. Stover crushed a two-run triple to right field in the big rally and Jake Simmons had a runscoring double. Stover and Woolsey each scored two runs in the win. Simmons had two hits and drove in two runs and White had a pair of RBI singles. Against Umpqua Valley, South Coast scored five runs in the fourth inning to take a 6-1 lead, but couldn’t hold on for the win. Lavigne and Frank each had two hits, a run and an RBI. White also had a run and an RBI. Simmons also had two hits and Roberts, Woolsey and Freeman each scored runs. Seeley had two hits and an RBI, Caleb Snyder scored two runs and Peyton Hope drove in two runs for Umpqua Valley. Umpqua Valley also beat Klamath Falls 10-8 in nine innings Saturday to reach the championship game.

Alan Kulwicki, a NASCAR driver who died in a plane crash in 1993, said, “In every aspect of life, have a game plan, and then do your best to achieve it.” That definitely applies at the bridge table. Each side should have a game plan. Declarer’s is to make his contract; the defenders’ is to thwart declarer’s plan. In this deal, South is in three notrump and West leads the spade

seven. What should each side do? South might have opened two notrump. Despite having only 19 highcard points, all of those aces and kings increase the hand’s value. In the actual auction, South’s two-no-trump rebid showed 18 or 19 (or a poor 20) points and was in principle game-forcing. North had a minimum initial response, but his five-card suit was worth an extra point, and any time you smell a game, bid game. South has six top tricks: three spades (given the lead), one heart and two clubs. His plan should be to play on diamonds to generate the extra winners that he needs. So he takes the first trick with his spade jack and leads the diamond king. What should happen next? West knows that South is strong in spades, and the club holding in dummy means that that suit will not produce enough defensive tricks. Instead, West must win the first diamond trick and shift to the heart queen. Then the contract should fail. Yes, if South knew where all 52 cards lay, he could have made the contract after a spade lead. The curious may work it out.
