Schools tweak transfer limits NB letting in transfers in each upper-level grade; CB halts transfers because of bursting classrooms

BY CHELSEA DAVIS

The World

COOS BAY — Coos Bay school officials are holding off on transfer requests since class sizes are already pushing the limit.

“At this point, we have no room in K-7 ... because our numbers are high,” said Coos Bay schools

Superintendent Dawn Granger. “We do have some families, unfortunately, waiting on word from us for K-7 placement because of our numbers.”

Class projections are already pushing 23 to 28 students in the lower grades, even approaching 30 in seventh grade at Sunset Middle School. These classes include students from this spring, nonresident

students who have been grandfathered in and families who moved here this summer.

But students are always coming and going; what if a family moved to the district with third grade triplets? Granger asked at the July 14 school board meeting.

“I would hate to roll the dice when it comes to class size,” she

said. “Do we want to do that to our teachers?”

Any nonresident families who apply for a transfer to grades K-7 in Coos Bay will be put on a waiting list until further notice. The board will have a better idea of fall enrollment following registration Aug. 20-22.

Misplacing a burden on hospices

South Coast Hospice helps reverse a federal order that could have caused some end-of-life care programs to close ■

administration wants to measure, or even talk about.

“This is the single biggest flaw in U.S. climate policy,” said Roger Martella, the former general counsel at the Environmental Protection Agency under President George W. Bush. “Although the administration is moving forward with climate change regulations at home, we don’t consider how policy decisions in the United States impact greenhouse gas emissions in other parts of the world.”

Over the past six years, American energy companies have sent more coal than ever before to other parts of the world, in some cases to places with more lax environmental standards.

The consequence: This global shell game makes the U.S. appear to be making more progress than it is on global warming. That’s because it shifts some pollution —

COOS BAY — Hospice programs all over the country are still breathing a sigh of relief, after proving that an organized message can work wonders.

Hospices across the country received a federal guidance document earlier this year that sent them, many felt, down a dangerous road. In June, with two local workers being asked to take part, hospices organized a mission to Washington, D.C., to try and change that direction.

A guidance is typically a set of instructions from a regulatory agency. In this case, it came from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, also known as CMS. Linda Furman Grile, the director of South Coast Hospice in Coos Bay, says the order ended up putting an undue burden on hospice programs by forcing them to pay for extra medications that were not related to the patients terminal condition.

According to documents delivered to CMS officials, in protest of the guidance, the order basically established a procedure that intended to limit instances where Medicare Part D was being forced, inappropriately, to cover prescription medications that were related to the patients terminal condition.

Oregon Rep. Peter DeFazio was among the Congressmen in Washington who came to the aid of the hospices, helping to secure a reversal of the guidance order earlier this month.

In an email to The World last week, the congressman said he “went to bat for organizations such as South Coast Hospice” to prevent federal policy from interrupting or delaying a patient’s access to appropriate medical care.

“These nonprofits are doing good work in their communities and the federal government should help them, not hurt them,” he wrote. “There have been rare instances of fraud but in the effort to go after the bad guys we shouldn’t be punishing those organizations providing good services.”

That punishment, some hospice officials say, would have likely

After 6 weeks, finally a deal on VA health care

BY MATTHEW DALY The Associated Press

INSIDE

WASHINGTON — After more than six weeks of sometimes testy talks, House and Senate negotiators have agreed on a compromise plan to fix a veterans health program scandalized by long patient wait times and falsified records covering up delays.

The chairmen of the House and Senate Veterans Affairs committees have scheduled a news conference Monday afternoon to unveil a plan expected to authorize billions in emergency spending to lease 27 new clinics, hire more doctors and nurses and make it easier for veterans who can’t get prompt appointments

with VA doctors to obtain outside care.

An agreement reached Sunday

by Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Fla., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was a long time coming. The House and Senate approved bills on veterans health care in early June, and lawmakers from both parties said they expected a final bill by July 4.

Instead, negotiators met once in public, then disappeared or held private meetings that produced few results. Talks reached a low point last Thursday, as Sanders and Miller had a public spat that appeared to leave the two sides far apart, with only days remaining until Congress goes on a five-week recess.

Sanders, who chairs the Senate veterans panel, and Miller, chairman of the House panel, repeatedly lashed out at each SEE VETERANS | A8

U.S. is sending dirty coal to countries with less stringent guidelines ■

BY DINA CAPPIELLO The Associated Press

NEWPORT NEWS, Va.— As the Obama administration weans the U.S. off dirty fuels blamed for global warming, energy companies have been sending more of America’s unwanted energy leftovers to other parts of the world where they could create even more pollution.

This fossil fuel trade threatens to undermine President Barack Obama’s strategy for reducing the gases blamed for climate change and reveals a little-discussed side effect of countries acting alone on a global problem. The contribution of this exported pollution to global warming is not something the

Scam targets Coos County residents THE WORLD COQUILLE — Coos County law enforcement officials are warning residents of a scam from individuals claiming to work for the court system.

According to the Sheriff’s Office, dispatchers took a number of calls that someone with a 541-205 prefix was claiming to work for Coos County Circuit Courts.

The caller told the complainants that they had missed jury duty and a warrant would be issued for their arrest unless they sent the caller money.

“It sounds like (the caller) is working his way through the phone book,” said District Attorney Paul Frasier.

“Unfortunately, at least one person has apparently paid.”

The Sheriff’s Office and court officials are asking the public not to respond to suspicious calls requesting they send money, and to attempt to confirm who the caller is.

Digital vs. ‘real’ reading For more than 80 years, reading in print has been as natural for me as breathing.

Someone writing about one of my books — not e-books — described me as a “voracious reader.”

That’s why I’ve been skeptical about the growing number of online courses that students are taking and the diverse digital reading they do on their own.

How much of this kind of reading and learning, I wonder, gets and stays inside them?

I’m receiving credible answers from the author of a forthcoming book that should be a must-read for all Americans concerned with having future generations skilled in critical thinking.

The book, “Words Onscreen: The Fate of Reading in a Digital World” (Oxford University Press, to be published next year), is by Naomi S. Baron, a professor of linguistics and executive director of the Center for Teaching, Research and Learning at American University.

Fortunately, you can now learn much of the essence of her research from her article in The Chronicle of Higher Education, “How EReading Threatens Learning in the Humanities” (July 14).

NAT As the title indicates, the scope of Baron’s HENTOFF research goes beyond Columnist online courses: “With the coming of e-readers, tablets and smartphones, reading styles underwent a sea change.”

In all the intense arguments about educational reform, I’ve seen very little about this “sea change” in reading and how it will affect the depth and range of thinking by future generations of Americans.

Baron continues: “For the past five years, I’ve been examining the pros and cons of reading on-screen versus in print. The bottom line is that while digital devices may be fine for reading that we don’t intend to muse over or reread, text that requires what’s been called ‘deep-reading’ is nearly always better done in print ...

“Digital reading also encourages distraction and invites multitasking.”

Her survey research included university students here and in Germany and Japan.

And “among American and Japanese subjects, 92 percent reported it was easiest to concentrate when reading in hard copy (was necessary). (The figure for Germany was 98 percent.) ...

“Imagine wrestling with ‘Finnegan’s Wake’ while simultaneously juggling Facebook and booking a vacation flight.”

Among the common responses she got from students regarding what they most liked about reading in print (when they had to take time for it) was: “I can write on the pages and remember the material easier,” and “It’s easier to focus.”

Furthermore, “When asked what they liked least about reading on-screen, a number of Japanese students reported that it wasn’t ‘real reading,’ while respondents from all three countries complained that they ‘get distracted’ or ‘don’t absorb as much.’”

Baron’s prime personal focus is the decline in in-depth digital-reading of the humanities, where readings “tend to be lengthy, intellectually weighty or both.

“The challenge of digital reading for the humanities is that screens — particularly those on devices with Internet connections — undermine our encounters with meaty texts. These devices weren’t designed for focused concentration, reading slowly, pausing to argue virtually with the author, or rereading.

“Rather, they are information and communication machines, best used for searching and skimming — not scrutinizing.”

Think about that for a few moments: “not scrutinizing.” In other words, not examining what’s being communicated and not understanding how flimsy digital reading is.

Naomi Baron anxiously turns to what must be done if reading is to be “real.”

“Teachers and scholars must look beyond today’s (fashionable, speedy) career-mindedness in talking about challenges to the humanities.”

And, I’d strongly add, talking about challenges to the Constitution and to educating individuals apart from collective standardized tests that negate personal scrutiny.

“We need,” she emphasizes, “to think more carefully about students’ mounting rejection of long-form reading, now intensified by digital technologies that further complicate our struggle to engage students in serious text-based inquiry.”

As for me, I continue to cherish physical books I can hold — that I delight in writing in, arguing with the authors and rereading as I learn more about the subjects elsewhere.

I have friends who are proud of their Kindles so full of e-books.How intimately do they know each of them?

From the time I was a kid, certain printed books became part of me. And I still dig daily into newspapers — yes, newspapers — with a pen, underlining surprises that challenge me and noting the names of the unfamiliar reporters so I can check their believability.

I don’t dig skimming through life.

Letters to the Editor Health reasons to oppose LNG Thank you for the published opinion on LNG on July 11. There are many more reasons to object to the LNG project being in this area.

There are published reports by the company about the type and amount of toxic emissions that would be spewed into our air from both the LNG plant and the electrical station that would help support it. If they list these emissions, I suspect there will actually be more than admitted to. These emissions will be blown over a large area of our county 24 hours per day, seven days a week for years. What will residents and visitors inhale, and probably become ill from, either quickly or slowly over time? For those with lung conditions, it will be a fairly quick death. Ever see a person with COPD or asthma gasping to get good air into their lungs? The ills of second-hand smoke from cigarettes have been proven for people and animals after long debates. The plant emissions would be thousands of times more, and people could not get away from them if living here.

Families with children would not want to live where the air they breath is toxic. Ask any medical doctor who deals with allergies.

I lived near Tacoma, Wash., while the Asarco copper smelting mill was operating, and after awhile the word was strongly sent to nearby residents to not disturb the soil in their yards where contaminants had collected, and not to let children play in their yards because of the arsenic build up there. There was a very expensive effort to clean the area after years of abuse of the air. Not only did they have the soils removed or covered, but had the lovely water way dredged to take the toxic mud from the area. Harmful contaminants will build in our soils and will be blown around by our strong winds long after the plant ceases operation.

Do you want illness or death for yourself and children, or for your friends and relatives who visit you here? Retirees shudder at the probabilities and they will look elsewhere to find clean air and move from this place. Help to stop this insane project before it is constructed.

Impacts ignored in camp decision Those who attended last Wednesday’s town hall meeting about the proposed 2,100 person camp near Simpson Heights sought answers: 1. What will this camp look like?

2. What infrastructure might taxpayers be asked to pay for?

3. Exactly who will occupy the camp?

4. How will the predictable results of a long-term concentration of single, itinerant constructions workers be handled?

5. How will traffic work with only a single access road and a single U.S. Highway 101 intersection?

6. Can emergency access and evacuation be assured to an isolated peninsula subject to tsunami inundation?

Jordan Cove’s staff had no answers. North Bend’s police and

fire chiefs were present but not given an opportunity to offer their expertise.

Though details remain unknown, in March our planning commission made one of the biggest decisions in North Bend’s history on the basis of a slide show. Seems they didn’t need facts or public input to make a decision of such importance.

This attracted sharp criticism at Wednesday’s meeting: That five unelected officials made such a momentous decision with essentially no public notice, with only two citizens speaking on the issue and well before any details were made specific.

How could the public’s interests have been served by shutting out public discussion of problems and their solutions? How could five individuals make a better decision than the whole of the North Bend and Coos Bay community? Besides, deciding so quickly undercut the city’s ability to negotiate with Jordan Cove for solutions to the obvious safety, congestion and behavior issues this project entails.

The city did the absolute bare minimum here. It notified just nine property owners, published notice of the meeting in an obscure website not used by the public, took testimony from just two citizens, delayed the planning commission’s decision just seven days and did not involve our elected officials.

Yes, the city followed the rules.

But no rule prevented the city from involving its own citizens.

No rule prevented the city from delaying a decision until all the facts and specifics are made known. No rule prevented the city from serving the public’s interests.

By rushing this decision without public knowledge or involvement, Mayor Wetherall and the city of North Bend betrayed the trust we gave them to represent our interests. To represent us, not to make this big a decision in isolation and without our knowledge or consent.

Landowners kept in the dark The Pacific Connector Pipeline is the chosen route to bring natural gas from the shale oilfields of the mountain west to a not-yetbuilt natural gas compression plant at Jordan Cove on Coos Bay, just across the channel from the city of North Bend. Private pipeline developers have been granted the power of eminent domain to seize over 300 parcels of private property which lie in the path of the 230-mile Pacific Connector route.

Jordan Cove developers argue in their application to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission that building the plant and the pipeline are in the national interest because unless foreign markets are found for U.S. natural gas, fracking in the Rockies will slow down or stop.

Aside from the obvious one about exactly why it’s in our national interest for a Canadian developer to make massive profits selling U.S. gas to China, a more practical question has arisen concerning the Jordan Cove project.

Developers are denying property owners along the route the ability to contact each other. Requests by property owners for the names of others along the route have been

denied because of “the threat of terrorism.” A moment’s thought makes it clear that a 100-foot wide scar on the landscape that extends for 230 miles across nearly the entire state of Oregon is not going to be very difficult for bad guys to locate. There must be another reason why the developers don’t want the property owners facing eminent domain claims to contact one another.

Could it be the insultingly low prices ($300/acre) being offered for destructive easements and the prospect of having massive amounts of explosive gas running under their property?

How about it Jordan Cove?

Why are you preventing property owners along the pipeline, whose land you plan to seize, from contacting each other?

‘Patriots’ story unsatisfying As someone who attended the “Patriots Gathering” at Pony Village Mall in North Bend, The World newspaper article, published July 21, was very confusing to me. Neither Jody McCaffree, anyone from Simpson Heights, or anyone else opposed to LNG were presenters at the event. There were participants from outside Coos County. Our commissioners had nothing to do with the “Patriot Gathering.” Why were they mentioned in the article?

When any group gets enough signatures to put initiatives on the ballot for voter approval, I do not think they are “on the fringe.”

Neighborhood was ignored Our North Bend Simpson Heights neighbors continue to express concern about the Jordan Cove Energy “2,100 construction workers (at peak)” temporary, sea level, flood and tsunami zone, camp that is planned to be near their homes.

On July 12, The World reported that locals’ concerns should be alleviated by knowing that ALL 2,100 workers (who have not yet been identified or hired, and who will be coming from places worldwide) will be people “making around $100,000 a year who live in nice homes, in nice communities.” Further, all workers are subjected to “drug tests and background checks” and all are “upstanding men and women.”

Jordan Cove Energy would have us believe that at the end of the long day, the workers will be sitting around a campfire doing needlepoint, managing investments, reading Shakespeare and listening to Vivaldi. Poppycock!

Seems like every day The World publishes a letter from a concerned citizen (yahoos, naysayers, ain’ts, newcomers and fringe — what the chosen few of our community have labeled our neighbors who oppose LNG).

Simpson Heights residents have never assembled to protest the planned nearby LNG factory. If construction commences, local bars and restaurants (and probably jails) may be busy for a few years. Ever been near a major construction site with thousands of workers with nothing to do at night except party? I have. I partied with them. The local police/paramedics will be overwhelmed. Are we prepared? Is

there sufficient resources and budget — and not just in North Bend? And, those tourist dollars that now feed the restaurants may evaporate and never return.

Why do the local chosen few who have married us to LNG, to the SCCF, to the CEP, refuse to get any of the LNG developers promises in writing? How stupid does the LNG man believe that locals are? Where is the written enforceable agreement that makes the LNG developer responsible for all costs of public safety expenses incurred to safeguard their product and to safeguard the people from temporary workers in a work camp at the end of the work day?

Will the “fenced in” clone of Stalag 17 burden other local infrastructure — electricity, water, sewer, etc.? Is the garbage riding the northwest winds coming to your neighborhood?

At a minimum, our Simpson Heights neighbors deserve to be heard — on the record. We would want no less for ourselves.

EQ editorials missed the mark I am writing about your two editorials regarding the impending earthquake and tsunami.

I don’t know how long you have lived in our area,but for more than a decade we have been told to prepare for a disaster. Many citizens of this county have been CERT trained. In our neighborhood, the CERT trained folks held a meeting to inform the rest of us about planning and what we needed to have on hand to survive for weeks or longer after the event and how we can work together to make this easier on all of us.

We know that we live in an area that will, not may, have a catastrophic event. I was raised in the San Francisco bay area, and I am fully aware of what it is like to experience an earthquake. The ones I experienced were, of course, not 9.0 on the Richter scale, but, nevertheless, I know the damage a small one can do.

I find it interesting that you are shaking your finger at those of us who oppose the LNG plant and our concerns about what happens at the plant when this event happens. It seems like you think we are just not informed and that we should be more concerned about the event than the plant. I believe we are fully informed and as prepared as we can be and just want to have the scientific facts about the inevitable if this plant is built.

It seems like you are the ones who need a reality check. Please read LNG-in-tsunamizone_all.pdf on the 350corvallis.org’s website under “resources.” This document is written by oceanographer Charles Miller.

News of the West Son-in-law’s abusive father makes family gathering painful DEAR ABBY: I adore my son-in-law, “Tom.” He’s a wonderful husband to our daughter. He’s always inviting us to dinner along with his parents and family. We get along with them, but can’t stand how they treat Tom. We have never seen parents treat their children the DEAR way they treat him — especially the father.

Tom is practically begging for his approval and attention on a daily basis.

JEANNE The last PHILLIPS time we had d i n n e r t o g e t h e r, you could see the hurt and embarrassment on Tom’s face after his father spoke to him. I desperately want to say something to the father, but I don’t know if I should. What would you do in this situation? — DESPERATELY WANTS TO HELP DEAR WANTS TO HELP: I’d sit down with Tom and tell him how much I love him, how I appreciate the wonderful way he treats my daughter, and say what a joy it is that he is a part of my family. Then I’d tell Tom his father’s behavior is uncalled for, and how painful it is to watch because he doesn’t deserve it.

I would explain that some people in this world try to control others by withholding affection and approval, and regrettably, it’s a technique abusive parents — and sometimes lovers — use to exert control over those who love them and want only to be loved and accepted. And then I would ask him if he wanted me to call his father on it, because watching it happen is painful and prevents you from enjoying the dinner.

P.S. Counseling might help Tom recognize what’s going on and give him the tools to handle his father, if he’s open to it.

DEAR ABBY: I’m 17 and feeling so sad because I just lost my dad. I can’t talk to my stepmom because she’s too busy hanging out with her friends, drinking and partying. My dad died a couple of months ago, and she’s already having sex with my dad’s friends. I heard them talking about it. I have no other family that I can go to. I really hate her right now!

Please tell me what to do. — GRIEVING IN FLORIDA DEAR GRIEVING: Please know how sorry I am for the loss of your father. It would be helpful for you to find another adult to talk to about your feelings. Because you have no family other than your stepmother, perhaps the mother of one of your friends would listen and guide you. If that’s not possible, and you belong to a church, you should talk to the minister.

Hating your stepmom isn’t the answer. She may be acting the way she is because she’s trying to cope with the loss of your father by attempting to distract herself from the pain. It won’t work, by the way, but she may have to learn that by trial and error. A grief-support group could be helpful for both of you.

TO MY MUSLIM READERS: The fast of Ramadan is officially ended. Happy Eid al-Fitr, everyone. May God make yours a blessed feast.

Bill Cleek, left, embraces his good friend, Terry Cromwell outside a structure which housed one of many antique cars destroyed by a fire at Rancho Cicada Retreat on Sunday, in Plymouth, Calif. Firefighters in Northern California on Sunday battled a wildfire that has destroyed 10 homes and forced hundreds of evacuations in the Sierra Nevada foothills, while a fire near Yosemite National Park destroyed one home and grew significantly overnight.

Flames from California wildfire claim 13 homes PLYMOUTH, Calif. (AP) — Wildfires burning near Northern California vineyards and in the Yosemite National Park area were threatening hundreds of homes even as crews worked to contain them.

The Sand Fire in the Sierra Nevada foothills east of Sacramento was 50 percent surrounded as of late Sunday, after burning 13 homes and 38 outbuildings. It has scorched roughly 6 square miles of rugged grassland and timber near wine-growing regions in Amador and El Dorado counties.

While crews significantly enlarged the area they had corralled Sunday, “the steep, dry terrain continues to be a challenge” and about 515 homes remain threatened and under evacuation orders, according to a statement the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

The fire started Friday when a vehicle drove over vegetation that is tinder-dry from years of drought.

About 1,900 firefighters, aided by aircraft including a DC-10 air tanker, were working to control the blaze.

The fire destroyed homes, cabins and a collection of 13 antique cars that a man was restoring in the town of Plymouth, the Sacramento Bee reported.

Neighbors, however, stepped in to help those forced from their homes and ranches.

The Amador County fairgrounds made room for displaced animals and as of noon Sunday had taken in 12 horses, seven rabbits, 15 chickens, two dogs, three cats and seven goats, said Karen Spencer, the marketing director for the Amador County Fair.

“We’re right in the middle of our fair, but our livestock people are just moving over and making room,” she told the Bee. While the Red Cross has been able to provide clothes and food for the evacuees, the neighboring communities have joined the organization to help.

“We’ve got like 10 bags of new and slightly new clothes,” Rodney Stanhope of Placerville said.

Stanhope said his Facebook call has led to people offering to buy underwear and socks and others offering their homes to evacuees.

Oregon fires burning, but nearing containment PORTLAND (AP) — Oregon’s largest wildfire is nearing complete containment, although continuing high temperatures remain a concern.

Buzzard The 618-square-mile Complex fire in eastern Oregon, the nation’s largest wildfire, remained at 95 percent containment Sunday.

Incident reports from the fire say containment lines continue hold as crews monitor increased fire activity.

Containment of the Ochoco complex jumped from 69 to nearly 80 percent Sunday. The complex consists of four wildfires burning 10,000 acres east of Prinville. And the Bridge 99 complex north of Sisters is 74 percent contained.

“Everybody wants to help,” Stanhope said.

In Central California, a fire near Yosemite National Park had spread to about 4 square miles and continued to threaten the small town of Foresta, where it destroyed one home.

An estimated 100 homes in Foresta and the small community of Old El Portal were evacuated Saturday, and residents remained out of their homes Sunday.

Two shelters opened for people and animals.

The park itself, home to such sites as Half Dome mountain, Yosemite Meadows, a grove of Giant Sequoia trees and other wonders, remained open throughout Sunday and authorities said none of its treasures were threatened.

Wildfires also burned in other Western states, including Washington, Oregon, Colorado and Utah.

In north-central Washington, the Carlton Complex fire, the biggest in the state’s history, burned as temperatures rose Sunday, but no major flare-ups have been reported.

Cost of Washington wildfires so far: $50 million SEATTLE (AP) — The cost of fighting this season’s wildfires in Washington, including the largest one in the state’s history, has crossed the $50 million mark.

Bolstered by the nearly 400-square-mile wildfire in north-central Washington, this year’s wildfire season has been widespread, with dozens of fires burning at the same time.

So far, state estimates put the cost of fire suppression at just over $50 million. Nearly half of that cost comes from the Carlton complex fire in north-central Washington with a tally of $23.3 million.

The next-biggest cost is the Chiwaukum fire in central Washington.

Those figures don’t

include loss of property and damage to infrastructure.

The Carlton fire has burned about 300 homes and heavily damaged the power grid in the scenic Methow Valley.

At nearly 400 square miles, the lightning-caused Carlton Complex has eclipsed the 1902 Yacolt Burn, which killed 38 people and consumed about 373 square miles, or 238,920 in southwest acres, Washington. The Carlton Complex has been blamed for the death of a man who appeared to suffer a heart attack while trying to protect his property.

The Carlton fire continues to burn in rising temperatures, but no major flare-ups have been reported.

“We’re seeing more and

more (plumes of) smokes popped up but nothing to get terribly concerned about yet,” incident spokesman Alan Hoffmeister said.

A planned burnout operation near Winthrop to clear unburned grasses, bushes and small trees was scrapped on Saturday because the weather was not ideal, Hoffmeister said.

“They’ll have to do it Hoffmeister eventually,” said. “When that is, I really don’t know.”

Burnout operations require no wind and some in the air, moisture Hoffmeister said.

Meanwhile, temperatures continue to climb in northcentral Washington, and they could reach triple digits next week.

Man arrested over bribe for traffic ticket TILLAMOOK (AP) — Oregon State Police say they arrested a man after he tried to bribe a trooper to tear up a citation during a traffic stop.

Officials say 20-year-old Austen Corno, a Milwaukie resident, offered the trooper $360 to tear the citation up.

Corno was stopped Friday along Highway 101 in Tillamook County after the trooper observed him passing another vehicle in a no passing zone marked with double solid center lines.

The citation for passing in a no passing zone is a traffic violation with a listed fine of $260.

GRANTS PASS (AP) — A jump in the number of cases of the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhea over the past year in rural southwestern Oregon has state and local health officials alarmed and puzzled.

Ruth Helsley, sexually transmitted disease program manager for the Oregon Health Authority, tells the Grants Pass Daily Courier the reason is unclear.

She and Josephine County medical director Dr. David Candelaria say the sudden increase may be related to an increase in methamphetamine use, which increases sex drive and lowers inhibitions.

86 family members disenrolled from tribe PORTLAND (AP) — An Oregon woman says 86 members of her family have been disenrolled from an American Indian tribe that operates the state’s largest tribal casino, as leaders review the tribe’s rolls and enforce new enrollment requirements.

Family spokeswoman Mia Prickett says she’s shocked about being stripped of membership from the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde, since one of her ancestors was a chief who signed a treaty that helped establish the tribe.

The council that governs the 5,000-member tribe had been considering disenrolling the family for nearly a year, saying they no longer satisfy enrollment rules.

Those removed lose health care and housing benefits, educational assistance and about $3,000 annually in casino profits.

Man dies in car crash west of Eugene MAPLETON (AP) — Authorities say a man has died in a car crash on Highway 126, west of Eugene.

Oregon State Police say a sport utility vehicle was traveling westbound on the highway when it veered off the roadway and crashed head-on into a tree. The occurred on accident Saturday at about 3 a.m. near the town of Mapleton.

As a result of the crash, the tree broke in the middle and landed on the highway, blocking the eastbound lane.

Police say it’s not known why the car veered off the road. The man was declared deceased at the scene.

Dundee mother reported missing PORTLAND (AP) — A 38year-old mother of two has been missing since Thursday and police have exhausted their leads.

The Oregonian reports that Dunde resident Jennifer Huston was last seen purchasing gas at a 76 station in Newberg.

Newberg-Dundee Police Captain Jeff Kosmicki says surveillance video shows Huston buying gas around 6:10 p.m. for her dark green Lexus LX-470. She appeared to be alone.

Kosmicki says police have exhausted all leads. The family created a Facebook page to share photographs and information.

According to a family flier, Huston was last seen

Man tries to rob retirement home PENDLETON (AP) — An Oregon man has been arrested for attempting to rob a Pendleton retirement center with a pellet gun.

The East Oregonian reports 33-year-old Thomas Davis Jr. was charged with first-degree robbery, menacing and disorderly conduct.

Pendleton police say Davis pointed a pellet gun at an employee outside the Juniper Home on Tuesday, demanding entry into the facility to get access to pharmaceuticals.

The pellet gun’s orange safety tip was painted black to resemble a Colt .45 handgun.

Juniper Home officials say the employee didn’t let the robber in; Davis fled the scene.

Davis was arrested Thursday after police were called to his house because he was having an overdose on an unspecified substance. He was taken to the hospital and recovered.

Police say bomb threat call may be a hoax EUGENE (AP) — Authorities in Eugene say a bomb threat called in by someone describing himself as a 13-year-old boy appears to be a hoax.

Eugene police say the 911 caller reported shots fired and a possible bomb at his residence Saturday at about 11:30 a.m.

The Eugene Register Guard reports the call prompted police to cordon off streets and send in officers and a light armored vehicle. But police could not locate the address given by the caller.

Police say the caller first reported that his brother had shot his mother. This was followed by a report that his father was armed with an assault rifle and walking around the home’s front porch with a bomb strapped to his body.

Eugene police said hoaxes endanger police officers and residents.

Motorcycle-bus crash injures man in The Dalles THE DALLES (AP) — Authorities say they’re investigating a serious crash involving a motorcycle and a bus near The Dalles along Highway 30 that left one man seriously injured.

The motorcycle driver, 57-year-old Larry M. Dew, was flown to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center where he is in critical condition.

The bus driver, 55-yearold Patrick Preston was not injured.

DILBERT

Like it or not, you need a good credit score In my perfect world there would be no credit scores.

And while I do not believe that credit is necessarily evil, in that perfect world of mine, there would be no need for any of that because it would be, well ... perfect!

Back to reality. There are myriad reasons we need to have good credit histories and excellent credit scores.

Like it or not, lots of things are now predicated on one’s credit score. Take automobile insurance premiums, for example. Want the best rates? You’ll need a good credit score.

Want to make sure that out of all the applicants, you get that really great apartment?

You must assume that your potential landlord is going to look to y o u r EVERYDAY credit CHEAPSKATE history to determine if you will make a reliable, on-timepaying tenant.

A r e y o u Mary vying for Hunt a job with a g r e a t employer? Better hope your credit file is clean and represents you well because employers are allowed to look at the way you handle your finances. We now live in a world where, in many situations, one’s credit report is considered a character reference. Look in my credit file and you will get a good idea about how I manage my life.

You’ll see evidence for how seriously I take my commitments, a little about my personal integrity.

The most highly regarded, and used by most lenders and others who look at credit scores, is the FICO Score, and each of the big credit bureaus have their own version of FICO. How these scores are determined, based on the collected information in one’s credit file, remains proprietary with the Fair Isaac Corp. that created the FICO Score.

We do have some information, however. One thing FICO?looks at is what it calls “utilization rate.”

Your utilization rate is your credit limit compared to how much of that credit you are using at any given time, expressed as a percentage.

So, if you have a credit card with a $1,000 credit limit and a $100 balance owing, then you are 10 percent “utilized” on that card. You figure it by dividing the balance on the card by the limit on the card and then multiplying that figure by 100.

You can figure your “aggregate utilization rate” by adding together all of your credit card balances and comparing that number to the total of the credit limits on all of those accounts and multiplying by 100. Credit scoring looks at both utilization rates.

The best utilization percentage to have is 0 percent because then you have no credit-card debt and you’re not paying interest. But, since that’s not realistic for everyone, the best percentage is the lowest percentage you can achieve. In fact, according to FICO, consumers who have scores above 760 have an average utilization percentage of 7 percent.

There are reports all over the Internet that state 30 percent or 50 percent are the “target” percentages in order to achieve great scores. Those are false reports. In fact, nothing terrific happens at either 30 percent or 50 percent. Thirty percent is certainly better than 50 percent but not as good as 20 percent.

Think of utilization rates as you would golf: The lower the score, the better.

Generally, to achieve the best credit score, your utilization rate should be under 30 percent, with the goal to get it down as low as possible.

Pay down your credit cards as much as you can.

There’s nothing good about having a lot of credit-card debt. It’s expensive debt and it wreaks havoc on your FICO score. If you can get your debt-usage percentage to below 10 percent, your score will thank you.

Police team turns back from Ukraine crash site SHAKHTARSK, Ukraine (AP) — Heavy fighting raged Monday around the Malaysia Airlines debris field, once again preventing an international police team charged with securing the site from even getting there.

Government troops have stepped up their push to win back territory from proRussian separatists in fighting that the United Nations said Monday has killed more than 1,100 people in four months.

The international delegation of Australian and Dutch police and forensic experts stopped Monday in Shakhtarsk, a town around 20 miles from the fields where the Boeing 777 was brought down.

Sounds of regular shelling could be heard from Shakhtarsk and residents were seen fleeing town in cars.

Associated Press reporters saw a high-rise apartment block in Shakhtarsk being hit by at least two rounds of artillery.

The mandate of the police team is to secure the currently rebel-controlled area so that comprehensive investigations can begin and any remaining bodies can be recovered.

The second cancelled site visit over two days has strained tempers among the observation team.

“There a job to be done,” said Alexander Hug, the deputy head of a monitoring team from the Organization for Security and Cooperation

The Associated Press

Smoke from shelling rises over a residential apartment house in Shakhtarsk, Donetsk region, eastern Ukraine, on Monday. An international police team abandoned its attempt to reach the crash site of a Malaysia Airlines plane for a second day running as clashes raged in a town on the road to the area. in Europe. “We are sick and tired of being interrupted by gunfights, despite the fact that we have agreed that there should be a ceasefire.”

The Defense Ministry says troops have Ukrainian entered Shakhtarsk, although checkpoints blocking the western entrance into town remain under rebel control. It also said fighting was taking place in Snizhne, which lies directly south of the crash site, and in other towns in the east.

The self-declared Donetsk People’s Republic said on its official Twitter

that fighting was ongoing in the village of Rozsypne, where some of the wreckage still lays strewn and uncollected.

The head of the rebel’s military headquarters, Igor Ivanov, told Russian state news agency RIA-Novosti that the village had fallen into government hands, but that information could not immediately be confirmed.

Ukraine has accused rebels of tampering with evidence at the plane crash site and trying to cover up their alleged role in bringing the Malaysia Airlines jet

down with an anti-aircraft missile.

Separatist officials have staunchly denied responsibility for shooting down the airliner and killing all 298 people onboard.

A Ukrainian security spokesman said Monday that data from the recovered flight recorders shows Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 crashed due to a massive, explosive loss of pressure after being punctured multiple times by shrapnel. Andrei Lysenko said the plane suffered “massive explosive decompression” after it was

Israel breaks relative lull at start of Muslim holiday JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli jets pounded three Hamas sites in Gaza on Monday after a rocket was launched at Israel, disrupting a relative lull in the war-torn territory at the start of a major Muslim holiday.

The strikes followed an almost 12-hour pause in fighting and came as international efforts intensified to end the three-week conflict between Israel and Hamas.

The U.N. called for an “immediate” cease-fire.

Israel’s military said it struck two rocket launchers and a rocket manufacturing facility in central and northern Gaza after a rocket hit Israel early southern Monday. The rocket caused no damage or injuries.

Police in China remove cross amid crackdown BEIJING (AP) — Hundreds of police took down a church’s cross Monday in a city known as “China’s Jerusalem” for its many houses of worship amid a crackdown on church buildings in a coastal region where thousands of people are embracing Christianity.

Evangelist Qu Linuo said he and about 200 others had rushed to the Longgang Huai En Church in the eastern city of Wenzhou to protect the building but peacefully made way for the police, who used a crane to remove the 10-foot-tall red cross from its steeple.

Authorities told the church the cross violated building height limits, and returned it to the parishioners, who wept and prayed around it, said Qu, who is a member of another church. A man at the county’s public security office said he didn’t know anything about the incident, and the Longgang township police didn’t answer phone calls.

Family of 5 found fatally shot in Maine SACO, Maine (AP) — Neighbors struggled to make sense of the shooting deaths of a family of five in which the father was known to many throughout their apartment complex as a friendly maintenance worker.

Three children ranging from 4 to 12 were among the victims discovered Sunday in their home along with a long-barreled gun believed to have been used in their deaths. A detective said murder-suicide was one of the scenarios being investigated.

Liberia president orders new anti-Ebola measures

NEWS D I G E S T Trial opening over video of bombing OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — A Salt Lake City attorney is arguing in a lawsuit that the FBI has video of the Oklahoma City bombing that shows a second person was involved.

The case is at the heart of Jesse Trentadue’s quest to explain his brother’s mysterious jail cell death 19 years ago, which has rekindled longdormant questions about whether others were involved in the deadly 1995 blast.

What some consider a farflung conspiracy theory is at the forefront of his Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the FBI that goes to trial Monday.

US companies fish for growth overseas SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Major U.S. companies are starting to reap their most rapid growth in fertile lands of opportunity far from home.

Technology trendsetters Apple Inc., Google Inc., Facebook Inc. and Netflix Inc. all mined foreign countries to produce earnings or revenue that exceeded analysts’ projections in their latest quarters. Prodded by the steadily rising demand for Internet access and online services in developing countries, these technology companies will likely be wading even deeper into overseas markets for years to come.

UN Security Council calls for cease-fire UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Secretary-General Ban Kimoon is demanding an end to the violence in Gaza “in the name of humanity” and is accusing the leaders of Israel and Hamas of being irresponsible and “morally wrong” for letting their people get killed.

Ban urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal on Monday to demonstrate “political will” and “compassionate leadership” to end the suffering.

The U.N. chief reinforced the U.N.Security Council’s call early Monday morning for “an immediate and unconditional humanitarian cease-fire.” Ban said “Gaza is in critical condition” after pummeling by Israeli forces that has killed helpless civilians and raised “serious questions about proportionality.”

hit by fragments he said came from a missile.

The data recorders were sent to experts in Britain for examination.

In their campaign to wrest control over more territory from separatist forces, Ukraine’s army has deployed a growing amount of heavy weaponry. Rebels have also been able to secure large quantities of powerful weapons, much of which the United States and Ukraine maintain is being supplied by Russia.

Moscow dismisses those charges.

While Russia and Ukraine

trade accusations, the death toll has been mounting swiftly.

The U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights said in a report out Monday that at least 1,129 people have been killed between mid-April, when fighting began, and July 26.

The report said at least 3,442 people had been wounded and more than 100,000 people had left their homes. A U.N. report from mid-June put the death toll at 356.

Navi Pillay, the U.N.’s top human rights official, also called for a quick investigation into the downing of the plane, which she said may be a war crime.

At least eight civilians were killed by fighting and shelling in two cities held by separatist militants overnight Sunday, officials in the rebellion-wracked region said.

Authorities in Luhansk said that five people were killed and 15 injured by overnight artillery strikes.

Three were killed in Donetsk as a result of clashes, the city’s government said.

Rebels accuse government troops of deploying artillery against residential areas.

Authorities deny that charge, but also complain of insurgents using apartment blocks as firing positions.

Meanwhile, a government-supported volunteer battalion said in a statement Monday that it lost 23 soldiers during fighting in a town called Lutuhyne, which is just south of Luhansk.

President Barack Obama speaks at the Walker Jones Education Campus in Washington. The last time Republicans unleashed impeachment proceedings against a Democratic president, they lost House seats in an election they seemed primed to win handily.

Clinton drama hangs over GOP lawsuit WASHINGTON (AP) — The last time Republicans unleashed impeachment a against proceedings Democratic president, they lost five House seats in an election they seemed primed to win handily.

Memories of Bill Clinton and the campaign of 1998 may help explain why Speaker John Boehner and the current GOP leadership want no part of such talk now, although conservatives increasingly clamor for it.

And also why President Barack Obama’s White House seems almost eager to stir the impeachment pot three months before midterm elections.

Republicans have already “opened the door for impeachment” with their plans to sue the president over allegedly failing to carry out the health care law, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer told reporters. In something of a dare last week, he also said any further action Obama takes on his own on immigration will “up the likelihood” of a GOP-led move to remove Obama from office.

House Democrats’ campaign committee used party of tea reports Republicans meeting to discuss impeachment in an emailed fundraising plea sent Sunday. They warned “the fate of Obama’s presidency is at stake.”

Pfeiffer and Democratic fundraisers aren’t privy to the inner workings of the House Republican leadership. Boehner, who is, insists at every public opportunity that the lawsuit is one thing, impeachment is another — and not on the table. The planned suit results from a dispute over the balance of powers between the president and Congress, he said last month, and the House “must act as an institution to defend the constitutional principles at stake.”

Republicans dispute suggestions by Democrats that the suit’s true purpose is to release pressure from the party’s more extreme supporters for impeachment.

One Republican committee chairman, Rep. Pete Sessions of Texas, said in a brief interview that Clinton deserved to be impeached, but Obama does not.

MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) — Liberia’s president has closed all but three land border crossings, restricted public gatherings and quarantined communities heavily affected by the Ebola outbreak in the West African nation.

President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf described the measures late Sunday after the first meeting of a new taskforce she created and is chairing to contain the disease, which has killed 129 people in the country and more than 670 across the region.

A top Liberian doctor working at Liberia’s largest hospital died on Saturday, and two American aid workers have fallen ill, underscoring the dangers facing those charged with bringing the outbreak under control.

Last week a Liberian official flew to Nigeria via Lome, Togo and died of the disease at a Lagos hospital. The fact that the official, Patrick Sawyer, was able to board an international flight despite being ill raised fears that the disease could spread beyond the three countries already affected — Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone.

There is no known cure for Ebola, which begins with symptoms including fever and sore throat and escalates to vomiting, diarrhea and internal bleeding. The disease spreads through direct contact with blood and other bodily fluids as well as indirect contact with “environments contaminated with such fluids,” according to the World

Health Organization.

“No doubt, the Ebola virus is a national health problem,” Sirleaf said. “And as we have also begun to see, it attacks our way of life, with serious economic and social consequences.”

Sirleaf said all borders would be closed except for three — one of which crosses into Sierra Leone, one that cross into Guinea and another that crosses into both.

Experts believe the outbreak originated in southeast Guinea as far back as January, though the first cases weren’t confirmed until March. That country has recorded the most deaths, with 319. Sierra Leone has recorded more of the recent cases, however, and has seen 224 deaths in total.

Liberia will keep open Roberts International Airport outside Monrovia and James Spriggs Payne Airport, which is in the city.

Sirleaf said “preventive and testing centers will be established” at the airports and open border crossings, and that “stringent preventive measures to be announced will be scrupulously adhered to.”

Other measures include restricting demonstrations and marches and requiring restaurants and other public venues to screen a fiveminute film on Ebola.

Sirleaf also empowered the security forces to commandeer vehicles to aide in the public health response and ordered them to enforce the new regulations.

POLLUTION Exports wipe out pollution savings Continued from Page A1 and the burden for cleaning it up — onto other countries’ balance sheets.

“Energy exports bit by bit are chipping away at gains we are making on carbon dioxide domestically,” said Shakeb Afsah, an economist who runs an energy consulting firm in Bethesda, Maryland.

As companies look to double U.S. coal exports, with three new terminals along the West Coast, America could be fueling demand for coal when many experts say that most fossil fuels should remain buried to avert the most disastrous effects of climate change.

But the administration has resisted calls from governors in Washington and Oregon to evaluate and disclose such global fallout, saying that if the U.S. didn’t supply the coal, another country would.

White House officials say U.S. coal has a negligible global footprint and reducing coal’s use worldwide is the best way to ease global warming. The U.S. in 2012 accounted for 9 percent of worldwide coal exports, the latest data available.

“There may be a very marginal increase in coal exports caused by our climate policies,” said Rick Duke, Obama’s deputy climate adviser, in an interview with The Associated Press.

“Given that coal supply is widely available from many sources, our time is better spent working on leading toward a global commitment to cut carbon pollution on the demand side.”

Guidance drafted by White House officials in 2010 did outline how broadly agencies should look at carbon emissions from U. S. projects. Four years later, that guidance is still under review.

“They have sat on their hands,” said George Kimbrell, a senior attorney for the Center for Food Safety, which has sued the administration over this delay.

Carbon dioxide, regardless of where it enters the atmos-

phere, contributes to the sea level rise and in some cases severe weather in the U.S. and the world.

Changing the global system to account for production would carry political risks, especially for the U.S., which is trying to boost production of energy and exports even as it addresses global warming.

“The U.S. needs to be pragmatic on this,” said Jason Bordoff, director of Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy. “If our coal exports are very small and having no or little impact on global greenhouse gas emissions ... the government has to take into account the economic and foreign policy costs of restricting exports.”

He was a National Security Council energy and climate change adviser to Obama until January 2013.

Over the past six years, as the U.S. cut coal consumption by 195 million tons, about 20 percent of that coal was shipped overseas, according to an AP analysis of Energy Department data.

Less coal being burned here has helped the power sector reduce carbon emissions by 12 percent and left more U.S. coal in the ground.

But a growing share is finding its way abroad.

Analyses suggest U.S. exports could be reducing by half or wiping out completely the pollution savings in the U.S. from switching power plants from coal to natural gas.

The nexus of the challenge can be found in and around Norfolk, Virginia, which exports more coal than any other place in the U.S. and is already experiencing one of the country’s fastest rates of sea level rise.

When the Prime Lilly, a massive cargo ship, set sail from Norfolk recently, its 80,000 tons of coal were destined for power plants and factories in South America.

The 228,800 tons of carbon dioxide contained in that coal disappeared from America’s pollution ledger. But it still pollutes the planet.

It’s a planet hungry for American coal. U.S. exports to Germany have more than doubled since 2008, providing a cheaper alternative to cleaner-burning natural gas and a replacement for nuclear power, which is being phased out after Japan’s nuclear accident.

VETERANS Still needs votes in both houses Continued from Page A1 other. Sanders accused Miller of acting in bad faith, while Miller said Sanders had “moved the goalposts” in talks to fix veterans’ health care.

A partisan impasse loomed, even as both sides said they hoped to avoid what Miller called the “sort of bickering and name-calling for which Washington has become infamous.”

Three days later, after talks by telephone from Florida and Vermont, Miller and Sanders were on the same page.

TRANSFERS Spots available in higher grades Continued from Page A1 Board members did open up 25 seats in each grade 8-12 for interdistrict transfers.

North Bend, on the other hand, is accepting interdistrict transfer requests to grades 6-12 through Aug. 1. interdistrict Elementary transfer requests will have to wait until after registration Aug. 13-15, said North Bend school board chair Megan Jacquot.

There are several openings in grades 6-8, and 19 to 25 openings each in grades 912.

The North Bend school board will have a special meeting Aug. 18 to finalize enrollment numbers for its elementary schools.

In both districts, existing interdistrict transfers have been grandfathered in for the upcoming school year.

In North Bend, though, no matter which elementary school an interdistrict transfer student attended before, he or she will automatically go to North Bay Elementary this fall, unless class sizes allow him or her to remain at Hillcrest Elementary.

North Bend is also in the midst of determining intradistrict transfers (students moving to a new school within the same district).

Aides to the two men said Sunday they had reached a tentative agreement. The deal requires a vote by a conference committee of House and Senate negotiators, and votes in the full House and Senate.

Miller and Sanders said in a joint statement that they “made significant progress” over the weekend toward agreement on legislation to reform the Veterans Affairs Department, which has been rocked by reports of patients dying while awaiting VA treatment and mounting evidence that workers falsified or omitted appointment schedules to mask frequent, long delays. The resulting firestorm election-year forced VA Secretary Eric Shinseki to resign in late May. The plan set to be

announced Monday is intended to “make VA more accountable and to help the department recruit more doctors, nurses and other health care professionals,” Miller and Sanders said.

Louis Celli, legislative director for the American Legion, the nation’s largest veterans group, said the deal would provide crucial help to veterans who have been waiting months or even years for VA health care.

“There is an emergency need to get veterans off the waiting lists. That’s what this is all about,” Celli said Sunday.

Tom Tarantino, chief policy officer of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, said the agreement was good news — although several months late.

“It’s about time they’re doing their jobs,” he said of

Sanders, Miller and other members of Congress. “You don’t get a medal for doing your job.”

Veterans waiting two months for medical appointments “don’t care about all this back and forth” in Congress, Tarantino said.

“That’s what should be driving decisions.”

An updated audit by the VA this month showed that about 10 percent of veterans seeking medical care at VA hospitals and clinics still have to wait at least 30 days for an appointment.

Acting VA Secretary Sloan Gibson has said the VA is making improvements, but said veterans in many communities still are waiting too long to receive needed care.

The House and Senate are set to adjourn at the end of the week until early September.

admission, but all of the ancillary care that (patients) needed throughout their life could not be put upon hospices to cover at the end of one’s life when they are in a hospice program. How would hospices ever survive that? And it really, really did not enhance the patients’ end-of-life quality to have to be bounced around like a pingpong ball.”

That message was centralized and delivered to Congress by the Oregon delegation, along with delegations from 46 other states, leading to the successful turnaround of that order July 18.

The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization, in a policy alert statement, wrote that they were “very pleased with the changes in the revised guidance.”

Adding that they accomplished their “primary goal of removing hospice patients and their families from the confusion surrounding the previous policy.”

It was news that was warmly greeted by hospice employees all over the country, but particularly for those in rural programs like the one in Coos Bay. “It was the most exciting news to know that things can change in the federal government when the people speak up,” Grile said. “It was just incredible to get to go back to Washington, D.C., and be part of something (like this).”

Rural facilities faced closure Continued from Page A1 led to smaller and more rural hospice programs having to close their doors for good.

Furman Grile said that she and Karen Schramm, patient care coordinator, were asked to represent South Coast Hospice as part of a five-person Oregon contingent that was going to ask Congress to back them in their efforts to get a reversal of that order.

While the decision had created a huge financial burden for the nonprofit programs, she said it also had other repercussions that would affect those going through end-of-life care.

One of the unintended consequences of the guidance, which went into affect in May, was that patients were being bounced back and forth between hospice and the pharmacy whenever they tried to fill prescriptions for conditions not related to the admitting illness.

Pharmacists also complained because of the chaos it had created.

“It was really limiting care to people and misplacing a burden that was not hospice’s burden to have to carry,” she said. “We provide the comfort and quality of care related to the disease of

Jeff Gordon celebrates after winning the NASCAR Brickyard 400 auto race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday.

Gordon gets milestone win at Brickyard INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — With a tinge of gray hair at his temples, his hat on backward and his two young children by his side, Jeff Gordon celebrated as if he was 23 years old again.

Gordon won a NASCAR-record fifth Brickyard 400 on Sunday, eight days before his 43rd birthday and on the weekend Indianapolis Motor Speedway celebrated the 20th anniversary of his first Brickyard victory.

Gordon’s first win came before the celebratory kissing of the Yard of Bricks was en vogue, before he became a household name, while Sprint Cup Series rookies Kyle Larson and Austin Dillon were still in diapers. Now a family man with an aching back, Gordon used Sunday to show he’s still at the top of his game.

“If you can do it here, you can do it anywhere,” said Gordon, who has led the Sprint Cup Series standings for 13 of the last 14 weeks.

“It’s certainly going to be a huge confidence boost for this team. We recognize the significance of this.

“We saw we were points leaders, we won at Kansas, but I don’t know if we believed we were capable of winning this championship this year. We do now.”

To prove it to himself, to his Hendrick Motorsports team and to his ardent fan base, Gordon needed a vintage close to Sunday’s race.

Hendrick teammate Kasey Kahne led a racehigh 70 laps and seemed only to be racing against his gas tank when a late caution put the race back into Gordon’s hands. He’d have one shot at passing Kahne, on a dreaded restart, and nobody was sure if ol’ “Four-Time” had it in him.

Restarts are his Achilles heel, and he’s struggled with them for several years. And Kahne, who is winless on the season, desperately needed the victory to grab a berth in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field.

“The restart is going to be the race, really,” Gordon’s crew chief, Alan Gustafson, conceded in a television interview moments before the field went green with 17 laps remaining.

Kahne picked the lower, inside lane for the restart, and Gordon found himself on the outside and exactly where he wanted to be. Gordon tried to set a quick pace as they headed to the flag, and Kahne tried to slow it down in the restart zone.

Gordon shifted into fourth gear and surged past Kahne on the outside, and Gordon kicked it into cruise control as he sailed away for the win.

“I think we both knew that was for the win,” Gordon said of Kahne. “Out of nowhere, I have

the restart of my life at the most important moment that you could ask for in a race, in a season, at a race like this. That was just awesome.”

The win came on the 20th anniversary celebration of Gordon’s win in the inaugural Brickyard 400, and on “Jeff Gordon Day” as declared by the Mayor of Indianapolis. The win moved Gordon into a tie with Michael Schumacher, whose five Formula One victories at Indy had been the gold standard.

“I told him this morning that this was his day,” said team owner Rick Hendrick.

Kahne plummeted to fifth after the restart, then ran out of gas on the final lap and had to nurse his car home to a sixth-place finish. He said he erred in picking the inside line for the restart.

“I should have chosen the top (lane), obviously,” he said. “I pretty much let Jeff control that last restart. I thought I made the right decision.”

Hendrick said he had no favorite in that situation, and hoped only that Gordon and Kahne did not wreck each other.

“I know Kasey, he needed a win, and he ran awful good today,” Hendrick said. “But Jeff had the dominant car, so it all worked out.”

The American Legion baseball season ended with a pair of losses Saturday for the Three Rivers Sandblasters.

The South Coast’s AAA-level squad was eliminated from the Roseburg super regional when the Sandblasters fell to the Canyon Crushers 5-2 and then were beaten by host Doc Stewarts 8-6.

Three Rivers finished the season 12-17-1 after starting just 1-9.

Doc Stewarts rallied all the way back from losing to Three Rivers on Friday to win the regional, eliminating Rex Putnam and Three Rivers on Saturday and then beating the Canyon Crushers twice on Sunday, including 12-0 in the final game.

Three Rivers rallied in the first game Friday, scoring four runs in the ninth inning.

But the offense went dry for the Sandblasters on Saturday. They had just three hits in the loss to the Canyon Crushers — singles by Brad Snow, Andrew Sharp and Kyle Springer.

Still, Three Rivers led 2-0 with two outs midway through the game when the Canyon Crushers had a ball fall in right field, opening the way for a three-run inning that turned the momentum away from the Sandblasters.

Tyler Dordan and Zach Inskeep drove in the runs for Three Rivers in the loss.

In the rematch with Doc Stewarts, Three Rivers had four costly errors that proved too much to overcome.

Pete Lahti had two hits and two runs and Taylor Travess had two hits and two RBIs. John Dodson also scored two runs and Inskeep, Snow and Tyler Campbell drove in runs.

The South Coast’s other American Legion team, North Coos, begins play in the Legion A State Tournament at Medford on Wednesday.

North Coos faces a team from Salem at 4:30 p.m. at Harry & David Field.

The double-elimination tournament runs through Sunday.

Six greats join baseball Hall

The Associated Press

Tour de France winner Vincenzo Nibali of Italy, wearing the overall leader's yellow jersey, celebrates on the podium Sunday.

Nibali celebrates Tour de France win PARIS (AP) — Vincenzo Nibali put his lungs and legs to work one last time, marching up to the winner’s podium of the Tour de France and sighing deeply before the Italian anthem echoed over the Champs-Elysees.

Chants of “Vin-cen-zo!” rang across the famed avenue for the Sicilian, who dominated the race nearly from the start three weeks ago and on Sunday became the first Italian to win cycling’s greatest race since Marco Pantani in 1998.

Marcel Kittel of Germany won Stage 21 in a sprint, his fourth victory this year. Nibali cruised in 24 seconds later, easily retaining a lead of more than seven minutes on his closest rival. He received pats on the back, kissed his wife and infant daughter and was mobbed by cameras.

“Now that I find myself on the highest step on the ChampsElysees podium, it’s more beautiful than I ever imagined,” Nibali, the Arc de Triomphe behind him, told the crowd. “I’ve never been this moved in all my life.”

Nibali, likened by some as the emperor of the pack, conquered where others did not: notably

Chris Froome of Britain, the 2013 Tour winner, and two-time champion Alberto Contador of Spain.

Both crashed out with injuries before the halfway mark.

As if mountain climbs, bonejarring cobblestones, crashes and rain-splattered rides weren’t enough, Nibali faced the scrutiny that comes with the yellow jersey in a sport long damaged by drugs.

Nibali, who calls himself “a flag-bearer of anti-doping,” noted that his success came through pinpoint focus on this race as the season began and opportunistic attacks in which he was able to nibble seconds on his rivals. There were no eye-popping performances, as was the case when doping was so prevalent.

The Astana team leader is only the sixth rider to win all three Grand Tours — France, Italy and Spain. His win comes 16 years after Pantani, a flamboyant rider, died from a drug overdose.

Nibali won four stages — a feat not equaled by a Tour winner since Lance Armstrong won five a decade ago.

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. (AP) — Frank Thomas choked back tears, Joe Torre apologized for leaving people out of his speech and Tony La Russa said he felt uneasy.

Being enshrined in the Hall of Fame can have those effects, even on the greats.

Thomas, pitchers Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux, and managers Bobby Cox, Torre and La Russa were inducted into the baseball shrine Sunday, and all paid special tribute to their families before an adoring crowd of nearly 50,000.

“I’m speechless. Thanks for having me in your club,” Thomas said, getting emotional as he remembered his late father. “Frank Sr., I know you’re watching.

Without you, I know 100 percent I wouldn’t be here in Cooperstown today. You always preached to me, ‘You can be someone special if you really work at it.’ I took that to heart, Pop.” “Mom, I thank you for all the motherly love and support. I know it wasn’t easy.”

The 46-year old Thomas, the first player elected to the Hall who spent more than half of his time as a designated hitter, batted .301 with 521 home runs and 1,704 RBIs in a 19-year career mostly with the Chicago White Sox. He’s the only player in major league history to log seven straight seasons with a .300 average, 20 homers, 100 RBIs and 100 walks.

Ever the diplomat as a manager, Torre somehow managed to assuage the most demanding of owners in George Steinbrenner, maintaining his coolness amid all the Bronx craziness while keeping all those egos in check after taking over in 1996. The result: 10 division titles, six AL pennants and four World Series triumphs in 12 years as he helped restore the luster to baseball’s most successful franchise and resurrected his own career after three firings.

Torre, the only man to amass more than 2,000 hits (2,342) and win more than 2,000 games as a manager, was last to speak, and in closing delivered a familiar message.

The Associated Press

Joe Torre speaks during the Hall of Fame induction ceremony Sunday.

“Baseball is a game of life. It’s not perfect, but it feels like it is,” said the 74-year-old Torre, who apologized afterward for forgetting to include the Steinbrenner family in his speech. “That’s the magic of it. We are responsible for giving it the respect it deserves.

Our sport is part of the American soul, and it’s ours to borrow — just for a while.”

“If all of us who love baseball and are doing our jobs, then those who get the game from us will be as proud to be a part of it as we were. And we are. This game is a gift, and I am humbled, very humbled, to accept its greatest honor.”

The day was a reunion of sorts for the city of Atlanta. Glavine, Maddux and Cox were part of a remarkable run of success by the Braves. They won an unprecedented 14 straight division titles and made 15 playoff appearances,

winning the city’s lone major professional sports title.

“I’m truly humbled to stand here before you,” Cox said. “To Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux, and I have to mention the third member of the big three — John Smoltz — I can honestly say I would not be standing here if it weren’t for you guys.”

Smoltz, part of the MLB Network telecast of the event and eligible for induction next year, flashed a smile in return for the compliment.

Glavine started when the Braves won Game 6 to clinch the 1995 World Series, pitching onehit ball over eight innings in a 1-0 victory over Cleveland. And the slender lefty was one of those rare athletes, drafted by the Braves and the Los Angeles Kings of the National Hockey League.

Langer wins by record margin THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BRIDGEND, Wales — Bernhard Langer ran away with the Senior British Open for his fourth senior major title, finishing a Champions Tour-record 13 strokes ahead of Scotland’s Colin Montgomerie.

The 56-year-old German closed with a 4-under 67 at sunny Royal Porthcawl to finish at 18u n d e r 266. He opened w i t h rounds of 65, 66 and 68.

Langer broke the Champions Tour record for margin of victory of 12 set by Hale Irwin in the 1997 Senior PGA, and matched the tournament record for relation to par set by Tom Watson at Turnberry in 2003.

Montgomerie, the winner of the previous two senior majors, finished with a 69.

Furyk, the two-time Canadian Open champion who took a three-stroke lead into the final round, finished with a 69. Furyk is 0-for-7 with the 54-hole lead since winning the 2010 Tour Championship for the last of his 16 PGA Tour titles.

Spain wins inaugural LPGA team event OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Carlota Ciganda breezed to an early victory to set the tone and Spain won all four of its singles matches to capture the inaugural International Crown.

Sweden finished second in the eight-team tournament. The top-seeded United States was among three teams eliminated Saturday, leaving five countries and 20 players to compete for the trophy.

Fifth-seeded Spain began the final round tied for second behind Japan, but Ciganda immediately gave the Spaniards a boost by beating Na Yeon Choi of South Korea 8 and 6. Beatriz Recari followed with a 3and-2 victory over Mikaela Parmlid of Sweden, and Belen Mozo clinched the tournament title with a 3and-2 win over Moriya Jutanugarn of Thailand.

That set off an impromptu celebration on the 16th hole that began with a jubilant Recari jumping into the arms of Ciganda.

Azahara Munoz completed the sweep by beating Ai Miyazato of Japan 2 and 1.

NFL Minnesota rewards TE Rudolph with extension MINNEAPOLIS — Kyle Rudolph hasn’t put up the biggest numbers over the first three years of his career, which is due as much to Minnesota’s revolving door at quarterback as anything else.

The Vikings have known all along what they have in Rudolph, a big, fieldstretching tight end who can be a difference-maker in the right offense with the right quarterback. So now they’re paying him like one.

Rudolph signed a fiveyear contract extension with the Vikings on Sunday night, a sign that the team has big plans for Rudolph in new offensive coordinator Norv Turner’s offense. The deal is worth $36.5 million with $19.4 million guaranteed.

National Baseball Hall of Fame inductees, from left, Bobby Cox, Tony La Russa, Tom Glavine, Frank Thomas, Greg Maddux and Joe Torre hold their plaques after their induction ceremony Sunday.

La Russa, who ranks third in career victories as a manager with 2,728, behind only Connie Mack and John McGraw, was chosen manager of the year four times and won 12 division titles, six pennants and three World Series titles in stints with the White Sox, Oakland A’s and St. Louis Cardinals.

La Russa spoke from the heart. There was no written speech.

“It’s uncomfortable because I didn’t make it as a player. Not even close,” said La Russa, who made his big league debut as a teenage infielder with the 1963 Kansas City Athletics and appeared in just 132 games over six seasons, hitting .199 with no home runs. “Since December, I have not been comfortable with it. There’s no way to mention everybody, and that bothers me.”

“From managing parts of two years in the minor leagues, after thinking about all the other young managers who paid a lot of dues in the minor leagues and I get a chance and then I go into the big leagues with three organizations,” he said. “All that equates to me is I’m very, very fortunate. I’ve never put my arms around the fact that being really lucky is a Hall of Fame credential.”

Joey Logano was fifth in the highest-finishing car from Team Penske, which brought Juan Pablo Montoya to the race in an effort to get the win. Roger Penske has won a record 15 Indianapolis 500s, but is winless in the Brickyard. Montoya was never a factor and finished 23rd.

Larson, who grew up a Gordon fan, finished seventh and likened Gordon’s win on Sunday to Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s season-opening win in the Daytona 500.

“To see Jeff Gordon win is pretty special — it’s kind of like Junior winning the 500 this year,” Larson said.

Kevin Harvick, the polesitter and the driver with the car most everyone thought

would be tough to beat, was eighth and followed by Earnhardt and rookie Austin Dillon.

Carl Edwards finished 15th hours after RoushFenway Racing finally confirmed he was leaving the team at the end of the season.

In addition to his 1994 victory, Gordon also won at the track in 1998, 2001 and 2004.

Montreal’s Felipe Martins attempts to tackle Portland’s Darlington Nagbe during the second half in Montreal on Sunday.

Timbers score late to beat Montreal MONTREAL (AP) — Diego Valeri broke a tie in the 82nd minute and the Portland Timbers held off Montreal 3-2 on Sunday night to extend the Impact’s losing streak to five games.

Maximiliano Urruti and Will Johnson also scored for Portland (6-6-9).

Andres Romero and Maxim Tissot scored for Montreal (3-12-5).

Valeri pounced on a giveaway by Mamadou Danso, the former Timbers defender making his first appearance for the Impact, and fired a shot past goalkeeper Evan Bush.

Montreal assistant

coach Mauro Biello directed the Impact after coach Frank Klopas was suspended for arguing with the referee after team’s loss to Real Salt Lake on Thursday night.

Romero opened the scoring in the 13th minute, and Urruti tied it in the 34th with his team-leading ninth goal of the season.

Johnson gave Portland the lead on a penalty kick a few minutes later after the Canadian international was taken down in the box

by Impact defender Hassoun Camara.

Tissot tied it again late in the half.

Sports TOUR Two French riders reach final podium From Page B1

The Associated Press

Team USA’s Michael Cherry takes off with the baton on the final leg of the men’s 4x400 meter relay at the World Junior Championships on Sunday.

Americans sweep relays at Eugene EUGENE (AP) — Kendall Baisden kicked the final 100 meters and the U.S. women won the 4x400-meter relay Sunday on the final day of the IAAF junior world championships at Hayward Field.

Baidsen, who will be a sophomore at Texas, pushed the women across the finish in 3 minutes, 30.42 seconds. Earlier in the week, Baisden won the 400.

“I was making sure, as always, that I run my own race, not get out too hard, so that I wouldn’t slow down on the homestretch,” Baisden said.

The U.S. men also won the 4x400 relay in 3:03.31 to cap the six-day international track and field event.

Kendell Williams won the 100 hurdles in a meet record of 12.89 seconds.

Fellow American Dior Hall was second at 12.92, breaking the U.S. high school record set in 1989.

Williams, who just wrapped up her freshman season at Georgia, was the U.S. junior champion in the 100 hurdles, as well as the NCAA heptathlon champion and the NCAA indoor pentathlon champion.

“I got out well and went through the hurdles well but I could see Dior peripherally and that helped push me,” Williams said. “This is my last junior meet and I wanted to go out with a bang.

I think I did that.”

Alfred Kipketer of Kenya won the men’s 800 in 1:43.95. Countryman

Barnabas Kipyego won the 3,000 steeplechase in a personal-best 8:25.59.

“I made a promise in my country that I will win this medal, and I kept my promise,” Kipketer said. “This is very important to me.”

Morgan Lake of Britain won the women’s high jump at 6 feet, 4 inches.

Lake also won the title in the heptathlon earlier in the week, making her the first person to win both events at the worlds.

Dawit Seyaum of Ethiopia won the 1,500 in 4:09.86 on her 18th birthday.

Lazaro Martinez of Cuba won the 1 men’s triple jump with a leap of 52-2 ⁄2, while Gatis Cakss of Latvia won the javelin with a throw of 242-11.

It is the first time the junior world championships have been held in the United States. Nearly 1,600 athletes from 170 countries are took part in the six-day event, which included athletes born between 1995 and 1998.

There were reports Saturday that four Ethiopian athletes had left the meet and were unaccounted for. The Oregonian newspaper reported that University of Oregon police, along with the Eugene police and other law enforcement statewide were seeking to contact the athletes.

It is not believed that the athletes are in danger. It is not uncommon for athletes seeking asylum from unstable countries to use sporting events as a way to leave, although it is not known if

the Ethiopians were seeking to flee their country.

SATURDAY Shamier Little won the 400-meter hurdles Saturday, besting British challenger Shona Richards.

Little, who fell while competiting at the world juniors in 2012 in Barcelona, got her redemption with a winning run of 55.66 seconds. It was one of eight total gold medals for the U.S. team at the international track event.

Richards finished in a British junior record mark of 56:16 for the silver.

The United States also won the women’s 4x100 relay in 43.46, besting rival Jamaica.It was the third-fastest time ever in the event at the junior worlds.

The U.S. team was anchored by 16year-old Kaylin Whitney, who won the gold medal in the 200 and the bronze in the 100 this week. She was the youngest gold medalist at the international event.

The U.S. men also won the 4x100 relay in 38.68, beating runner-up Japan.

The team was anchored by Trentavis Friday, who also won the 200.

In other final events on Saturday, Ruth Jebet won the first junior world championship for Bahrain by winning the 3,000 steeplechase in 9: 36.36.74.

Rouguy Diallo of France won the women’s triple jump in a wind-aided 47 feet, 4 1⁄ 2 inches. Countryman Axel 1 Chapelle won the pole vault at 18-2 ⁄2.

The Italian wore the yellow jersey for all but two stages since Stage 1. His 7minute, 37-second margin over runner-up JeanChristophe Peraud equals that of Armstrong over Swiss rider Alex Zulle in 1999 — a result nullified because of doping. Before that, the biggest margin was that of Germany’s Jan Ullrich: He beat Richard Virenque by just more than nine minutes in 1997.

In one of the subplots of this race, Peraud and thirdplaced Thibaut P inot became the first Frenchmen to reach the Tour podium since Virenque in that year — a fact not lost on many homegrown fans. Pinot was 8:15 behind.

Armstrong, Ullrich and Virenque were caught in nearly a generation of doping scandals. Armstrong, in cycling’s biggest scandal, admitted to doping and was stripped of his record seven Tour titles.

Nibali and many others in the peloton say that era is past. But his own victories in the 2010 Vuelta and the Italian Giro last year were tarnished by doping involving other riders. Cycling’s governing body has made great efforts to halt drug use, but few cycling experts believe the pack is fully clean.

Authorities in Italy and France have been among the most aggressive in cracking down on doping, and the victory of an Italian, followed by two Frenchmen, could be a sign the peloton is getting cleaner.

Some suggested that Nibali was just the best among the riders still in this Tour. Colombia’s Nairo Quintana, who won the Giro d’Italia in May, didn’t ride.

Bradley Wiggins, the 2012 Tour winner, was passed over so his Sky Team could focus on Froome. Then Froome and Contador pulled out.

But even before they left,

Nibali had a two-second lead on them by winning Stage 2.

Then, in Stage 5 after Froome crashed out, the Italian excelled on cobblestone patches that slowed Contador, who lost more 1 than 2 ⁄2 minutes to Nibali.

The Spaniard felt compelled to attack.

On a downhill in Stage 10, Contador fractured his shin.

But Nibali — known as “The Shark of the Strait” in a nod to the waterway near his hometown of Messina, Sicily, and his attacking style — didn’t stop there.

He went on to win that stage, up to the super steep La Planche des Belles Filles.

It was the first of three stages with uphill finishes that he won, adding one in the Alps and another in the Pyrenees — each time dealing small but cumulatively significant blows to contenders.

This 101st Tour began in Yorkshire, England, and guided riders over 3,664 kilometers (2,277 miles), with high-mountain rides in the Vosges, Alps and Pyrenees.

Tejay van Garderen, the top U.S. rider, said on Twitter this was the hardest of his four Tours. He finished fifth overall, 11:24 behind Nibali, after climbing a spot in Saturday’s time trial.

Nibali said the Tour layout was “almost made to measure for me.” He also noted that crashes are part of the race, and he’s been such a victim in the past.

As he stepped down from the podium, Nibali hurled the winner’s bouquet into the crowd, and a fan handed him an inflatable shark. Many waved French and Italian flags.

“I think it’s very important for cycling in Italy because at the moment there isn’t a lot of trust,” said spectator Massimo Solaroli, a 47year-old physical education teacher from the Italian town of Imola. “We don’t believe an Italian champion can win an important race without doping.”

But Nibali, he added, gives reason for hope.

“I think he can be a good champion for all the people, not only for Italian people, because he’s very humble,” he said.

BRIDGE Raymond Teller, presumably talking about Penn Jillette, said, “We did not start as friends, but as people who respected and admired each other.

Crucial, absolutely crucial for a partnership.”

That is an excellent starting point for a bridge partnership. In particular, you need to be able to trust your partner’s bids and plays. But there are times when, on defense, one partner is not sure which way to turn.Then, the other partner should try to signal the right road — as in this deal.

How should East-West card to defeat three spades after West leads his singleton club?

Note South’s jump to two spades, which promised some 9-11 points by an unpassed hand. West’s three-diamond rebid was aggressive, but it worked well here. First, it pushed the opponents up to three spades.

Second, if East had gone on to four diamonds, that contract would have made.

East knows that the opening lead is a singleton or the higher card from a doubleton. And especially if West has led a singleton, he is wondering how to get East on lead to receive a club ruff. This is where the suit-preference signal comes in. If East has the diamond king, he should play his lowest club at trick one — the low card keying to the lowerranking of the other two side suits. Here, though, East should play his highest club to tell partner that he has something useful in hearts.

South will take the first trick and play a trump, but West will win and shift to a heart. Then, in the fullness of time, the defenders will take two spades, one heart and two diamonds for down one.
