In addition to political consequences, Snowden's actions have brought heightened scrutiny to the government's use of contractors in positions requiring security clearance. Last week, The Wall Street Journal reported that U.S. Investigations Services Inc., which conducted Snowden's most recent security review, was the subject of a federal investigation into whether it took shortcuts during its approval process.

MIAMI — Derek Medina's was not the first Facebook confession, but it may have been the most graphic. At least a handful of others have posted online about killing someone, but this seems to be the first time anyone included a grisly photo of the corpse. In December 2011, a middle-aged Indiana man posted that he'd shot dead his 19-year-old ex-girlfriend and her friend. He also announced his own death. "someone call 911. three dead bodies at 3229 lima road fort wayne Indiana," he wrote. "I've killed
ryann, erin, and myself. People were warned not to . play me and ruin me. They didn't listen. Sorry about your luck." Police found all three dead when they arrived. Last April, a 28-year-old Vietnamese man posted a Facebook message confessing to killing his girlfriendof six years after she broke up with him, press reports said. The man, Dang Van Khuyen, reportedly surrendered to police in Ho Chi Minh City soon afterward. The same month, San Diego police began investigating a possible murder confession that went viral after being posted anonymously on the popular website Reddit.com. See Viral/A6

The Prineville and Burns districts of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management approached the Klamath Tribes to ask about the cultural significance of Glass Butte, about 70 miles southeast of Bend. The BLM districts were leasing the land around Glass Butte to Ormat Technologies, a Nevada firm, in hopes of exploring geothermal wells.

He wanted to make sure the agencies understood exactly what the butte meant to the tribe.

tle down the 10 different camouflage uniforms in use to just one are gaining momentum, a move that could save millions of dollars while affecting future contracts for the 23 manufacturers across the country that benefit from the proliferation of designs.
Before lawmakers left town last week, the Senate Appropriations Committee approved a fiscal 2014 defense spending bill, S. 1429, that would halt funding for new patterns starting Oct. I unless all services agree to use a single design for a given terrain.
A Government Accountability Office report prompted the
changes proposed by lawmakers, who are trying to find ways to trim costs amid the automatic spending cuts known as sequestration. SeeCamouflage /A6

CASCADE, Idaho — A harrowing weeklong search for a missing California teenager e nded Saturday when F B I agents rescued the girl and shot and killed her apparent kidnapper at a campsite deep in the Idaho wilderness. Hannah Anderson, 16, appeared to be uninjured and will be reunited soon with her father at a hospital, authorities said. Her suspected abductor, James Lee DiMaggio, 40, was killed after his campsite was found in Idaho's rugged Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, roughly 40 miles from the tiny town of Cascade. Hannah was taken to a hospital, where crisis counselors and health care providers were assisting her. Her father was expected to arrive in Idaho today to reunite with her. "We will make sure she gets as much care as possible, physically and emotionally," said Andrea Dearden, a spokeswoman from the Ada County Sheriff's Department who has been leading the communication team for the interagency effort in Valley County. The shooting came after officers participating in a massive manhunt for the pair spotted the campsite from the air and an FBI hostage recovery team trekked to the site near Morehead Lake. "No one really knows where an investigation like this will lead," said Mary Rook, special agent in charge of the FBI's Salt Lake City division. "In this case, our team faced a very challenging situation." The FBI said it was sending a team to investigate what unfolded before, during and after the shooting. Authorities offered few details Saturday night. The location wasn't far from what had been the last known sighting of the pair. A horseback rider called authorities
avoid traveling to the country. The action appeared unrelated to the al-Qaida threat stemming from Yemen, but mirrored a missive earlier
in the week to U.S.embassystaffers in that country.

lawmakers can't be counted on to do it. TheTexas Republican, a tea party favorite and a possible presidential candidate in 2016, drew a standing ovation at the Family Leadership Summit with his
denouncement of the health care initiative labeled "Obamacare" by Thursday night to report that on Wednesday he had seen two people who r esembled Anderson and DiMaggio with camping gear on a trail near the lake. The r ider, w h ose n a me wasn't released, didn't realize they were subjects of a massive search until he got home and saw news reports. The case began when the charred bodies of H a nnah Anderson's mother, Christina Anderson, 44, and the teen's 8-year-old brother, Ethan Anderson, were found in DiMaggio's burning house outside San Diego, near the Mexico border. Authorities ha v e said DiMaggio had an " u nusual infatuation" with Hannah, although the father said he never saw any strange behavior. An Amber Alert was issued, and tips led investigators to Oregon after DiMaggio and the teen were reportedly spotted there. But it wasn't until the Idaho horseback rider called in his tip that investigators found a major lead — DiMaggio's car, hidden under brush at a trailhead on the border of the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness

A contingent of about 270 law enforcement officers from the FBI, the Valley and Ada County sheriffs' offices, Idaho State Police, the U.S. Marshals Service,and the Border Patrol, aided byexperts from federal land management and wildlife agencies, worked around the clock to figure out the best way to track DiMaggio and the teen in the roadless area. San Diego County Sheriff William Gore announced Hannah's rescue and DiMaggio's death from a news conference in California. He said members of his office notified Hannah's father, Brett Anderson, of her rescue. "He was very relieved and very excited and looking forward to being reunited with his daughter," Gore said. At a separate news conference in Idaho, Dearden said she didn't know if DiMaggio fired shots at officers but there were no reports of any injuries to authorities involved in the encounter. Cascade residents gathered b ehind D e a rden, Rook and the other officials gathered at the news conference and cheered at the news of Hannah's rescue.

"With four l i nes of e v idence, I think they've really nailed the interpretation that this is fossilized ambergris," says Anthony Martin, an ichnologist (a specialist in trace fossils) at Emory University in Atlanta. The team's evidence is circumstantial but compelling, adds Nicholas Pyenson, a vertebrate paleontologist at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History in Washington. "Is this fossil ambergris'?" he asks. "They've made a pretty good case for it."
What happened? B aldanza an d h e r c o l leagues found 25 of the fossils in a region covering only 1,200 square meters — an area a little smaller than three basketball courts. That leads them to suggest that the concentration of lumps may have come about when a large number of whales died and then sank to the sea floor, where the carcassesquickly decomposed in the warm, shallow waters but the ambergris — which on its own typically floats — was buried and preserved. What may have killed so many whales all at once is a mystery, the researchers say, but causes could include disease, environmental stress, or even a mass stranding while chasing schools of squid into a freshwater bay. The mass stranding interpretation is "speculative but plausible," Martin says. One problem with that scenario, he notes, is explaining how the carcasses were transported from shore out to their final restingplacebut still remained close together.

Spills Continued from A1 An Enbridge Energypipeline ruptured beneath M arshall, spewing more than 840,000 gallons of thick oil sands crude into the Kalamazoo River and Talmadge Creek. I n M a rch's i n cident, a n Exxon Mobil pipeline burst in Mayflower, Ark., releasing thousands of gallons of oil and forcing the evacuation of 22 homes. Both pipeline c ompanies have spent tens of millions of dollars trying to recover the h eavy crude, similar to t h e product Keystone XL would carry. River and f l oodplain ecosystems have had to be restored, and neighborhoods are still being refurbished. Legal battles are being waged, and residents' lives have been forever changed. "All oil spills are pretty ugly and not easy to clean up," said Stephen Hamilton, a professor of aquatic ecology at Michigan State University who is advising the Environmental Protection Agency and the state on the cleanup in Marshall. "But this kind of an oil is even harder to clean up because of its tendency to stick to surfaces and its tendency to become
submerged."
In Michigan Before July 26, 2010, hardly anyone in Marshall had heard of Enbridge Energy Partners, a Houston firm whose parent company is based in Calgary, Alberta. Much of the Kalamazoo's plant and animal life has returned. But ridding the water of all the oil — some of which sank to the river floor and continues to generate a kaleidoscopic sheen — has proved elusive. Though a 40-mile stretch of theriver has reopened after being closed for tw o y ears and most of the oil has been recovered or has evaporated, vestiges of the spill are everywhere. "For Sale" signs dot the rolling cornfields and soy farms. Once-coveted riverfront homes sit vacant. Matt Davis, a real estate agent here, said he had struggled to sell homes since the
spill. "Enbridge hopes people forget," Davis said. "But this is my town. This is where I grew

"If those airborne contaminants come in, it's going to get into our ingredients," Bell said. LEFT: A cleanup site is located where a pipeline burst in March in Mayflower, Ark.

up. Enbridge isn't from around here. "We didn't ask for them to have their pipeline burst in our backyard. Make it right. Take care of the mess you made." In May, the EPA found that Enbridge had drastically underestimated the amount of oil still in the river. The agency estimated that 180,000 gallons had most likely drifted to the bottom, more than 100 times Enbridge's projection. It has ordered Enbridge to dredge sections of the r iver where stubborn beads of oil remain
submerged.
Brewery, one of the country's largestcraftbeer makers, was shocked earlierthis summer to seeworkers clear a staging area next to his brewery near Marshall. "We're going to be downwind of this thing," said Bell, who filed a lawsuit last month asserting that Enbridge did not get permission from the local condominium association to build its dredge pad. "If those airborne contaminants come in, it's going to get into our ingredients," Bell said. "We see that as irreparable. They can't compensate me for taking away my business."
The dredging started on July 30, and stretchesof the river

are being closed again. Constructioncrews have rumbled onto the riverfront in nearby Comstock Township, angering residents and business owners who remain fearful of another accident. J ason Manshum, an E n bridge spokesman, said the company was working to address the township's concerns as it followed the orders of the EPA. "This is the single-largest incident in the history of our organization," he said. "From the beginning, in July 2010, we said that we would be committed to this community and the natural environment, for as long as it would take to right the rupture that h appened. About three years later to the day, we're still here." Larry Bell, who owns Bell's
Since the spill, Enbridge has become one ofthe largest landowners in the area — buying out 154 residential properties within a 200-foot swath that the company determined was most affected. By many accounts, Enbridge paid a fair price and has begun to put some properties up for sale. The company has also donated millions of dollars to build roads and parks along the river. Still, the emotional scars oflosing property run
deep. For nearly 30 years, Deb Miller and her husband owned a carpet store along the Kalamazoo. After the spill, Enbridge offered to buy the property but not the store, Miller said. Nearing retirement and worried that the land's value would plum-

your family is going to go and where we're going to end up," he said. "I built that house six years ago. And now I'm not going back." Ryan Senia, a 29-year-old engineer, is also selling to Exxon. Senia, who has stayed at a friend's house since being evacuated, said he worried he would never be able to put his home on the market otherwise "Everyone you know is gone," he said. During the last few months, several lawsuits have been filed on behalf of dozens of residents who live both in and near the subdivision. The state of Arkansas and the Justice Department have also filed a claim, saying that the spill polluted waterways and that Exxon did not immediately repair the pipeline. Since the spills, the pipeline industry has emphasized that oil lines remain safe and reliable and that major spills are rare. For Miller, who sold the carpet store, the spill will forever haunt Marshall. "They can try and beautify along the river, but they can never give us back all of our neighbors who have moved out," she said. "There are not enough zeros to pay us for what we've been through."

U.S. adoptees welcomed in visit to Russia, despite ban

By Kathy Lally The Washington Post •
MOSCOW — Dasha left as a 6-month-old Russian orphan, hospitalized since birth, beset by a variety of ailments. This summer she returned for a visit, a spunky sports-playing 10-year-old named Emily, as American as can be, down to the pink polish on her toenails. Nicholi, now 12, went to his U.S. family as a sickly baby who weighed only 12 pounds by the time he was 10 months old. He returned as a lively seventh-grader with top marks back home in Norman, Okla. The two y o ungsters and their mothers traveled to Russia in July as part of a group of 15 families who wanted their adopted children to see and feel the country where they were born,a place they had been told about all their lives but didn't really know and couldn't quite imagine. They wanted them to know who they are. The parents were mindful of how much had changed here since their original visits, when Americans were adopting in large numbers. Russia has turned increasingly cantankerous toward the United States, accusing Americans of abusing their children. On Jan. 1, Russia forbade further adoptions by Americans. If the families feared any standoffishness, they needn't have worried. The K remlin line may be peevish, but ordinary people, doctors, nurses and baby home directors met them with curiosity and kindn ess. Nicholi — k n ow n a s Nicky — even found three surprised brothers and a loving grandmother. "It was terrific," said Harper Liles, Emily's mom, after visiting Tomsk, the 400-year-old Siberian city where her daughter was born. "The cornerstone of the whole trip was returning to where we became families. It's the thing you invested the most hope in and had the most worry about. And it was lovely." The trip was arranged by the Ties Program, part of a Wisconsin company that organizes homeland journeys for adoptive

FORT WORTH, Texas — In a corner of the Shannon Rose Hill Cemetery, close to a chain-link fence that separates the living and the dead, a patch of ground has been worn free of grass by all who come to stare at one particular gravestone.

"The services' de c i sion-making processes for developing new uniforms are fragmented and vary in their effectiveness," the GAO said in its findings, which were reiterated in a May report. Reducing costs may mean fewer orsmaller contracts for camouflage manufacturers. In March, the Pentagon awarded a $15.6 million contract to Boca Raton, Fla.-based Tennier Industries Inc. for camouflage-patterned jackets. That month a $25.5 million contract was awarded to Tullahoma Industries, based in Tullahoma, Tenn., for three types of camouflage pants for the Army. J amie D a venport, v i c e president of a dministration at Tullahoma Industries, said that like many of his competitors, defense contracting is the only viable option for most uniform makers since so much commercial apparel is manufactured overseas now. If the Pentagon moves to one design, he said "there could be impact." Davenport said he's optimistic his business would continue to win government contractseven ifthere's a reduction in designs. "I don't think the volume is going to fluctuate tremendously."
With just a surname, the marker says it all: OSWALD. But in the half-century since a slight, sallow man named Lee Harvey Oswald killed President John F. Kennedy, so much continues to be said about the assassination that the various conspiracy devices and theories are nearly as familiar as the tragic event itself. The Magic Bullet theory. The Zapruder film. The Umbrella Man. The Mafia. Jack Ruby. Fidel Castro. And, of course, Nick Beef. Or, more accurately, NICK BEEF. For the past 15 years, this curious name has vexed the obsessive assassinationbuffs who make regular pilgrimages to the Oswald plot in Fort Worth. That is because a pinkish granite marker suddenly appeared beside the assassin's grave sometime in 1997. And all it said was NICK BEEF.

He worked for a local television station, moved to New York, got involved with a sketch-comedy troupe called The Other Leading Brand. He did some freelance humor writing, sometimes using the byline of Nick Beef. He married, had two children and amicably divorced. Somewhere in there, Oswald's body was exhumed to address speculation that the buried remains were actually those of a Russian agent; they were not.
The marker In late 1996, Beef's mother died, and he returned to Texas to follow the detailed instructions she had left for her own funeral. During his stay he visited his real estate in Rose Hill and decided, on the spot, to buy a gravestone the exact dimensions as Oswald's. When the cemetery official asked what he wanted on it, he thought about protecting his two children. "Well, here we go," he recalls thinking. With the gravestone planted, rumors and speculation took root. It was said that since the cemetery refuses to provide directions to Oswald's grave — at the family's request, a spokeswoman for th e c emetery said — two reporters had bought the plot so that the curious could ask instead for Nick Beef. It was also said that Nick Beef was a New York stand-up comic who used references to the grave in his act. Assassination buffs swapped theories on the Internet. Meanwhile, Beef just carried on, not answering emails or telephone calls or the doorbell's persistent buzz. He began cre-

I killed him with his own drugs while he was unconscious and they ruled it as an overdose," news articles said. Experts aren't surprised that people are turning to social networking sites to confess shocking crimes. "Social networks are becoming more and more a public place. We shouldn't be terribly surprised that people would gather in that place and do what people do, which is some things that are extremely unseemly and unconscionable," said Al Tompkins, senior faculty member at The Poynter Institute, a journalism think tank.

"It's quite common for people to see online social media as an extension of their life," Tompkins said. But beyond the common tendency for oversharing, social networking can be a powerful platform for violence. "Facebook is a magnet for people who want to be seen," Tompkins said. "Often people who do things that are crimi-

B ut electronic health r e cords are already being analyzed to ensure that patient care is cost-effective, said Bonnie Westra,a former software company founder who coordinates the informatics specialty within the university's Twin Cities nursing program. One study of 500,000 patients proved that c ertified nurses "absolutely" make a difference in the quality of care for patients suffering f r om incontinence,pressure ulcers and surgical wounds, she said. The same database is now being mined for ways to predict which patients are likely to be readmitted after being released from a hospital.

MINNEAPOLIS — It's hard to see the future of medicine through the scabs, blisters and scars that torment 7-year-old Charlie Knuth as he makes his way haltingly to a checkup at the University of Minnesota's Amplatz Children's Hospital. But the boy from Appleton, Wis., is helping doctors perfect a pioneering intervention called gene editing, a procedure that could lend hope to thousands of
ft
people suffering from hundreds of diseases. They include epidermolysis bullosa, the disorder that causes Charlie' s skin to shear off and hi s eyes to b lister. Charlie's case also illustrates the power of a n e m erging field called "biomedical and health care informatics" that's beginning to revolutionize every aspect of medicine, from laboratory research to clinical treatments. The doctors helping Charlie — a team that includes scientists at the university, in Massachusetts and in G ermany — couldn't have done their work without mining a massive genomic database that enabled them to interpret millions of bits of data in the boy's DNA, according to Dr. Jakub Tolar, director of UM's Stem Cell Institute. That, in turn, allowed them to cut out a single, defective gene and splice in a correction without damaging side effects.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. — Brian Tennis, a former organic cherry farmer about 300 miles northwest of Detroit, wasn't decimated by the late spring frosts that wiped out almost 90 percent of the state's apple and cherry crops last year. The hops on his farm weathered the cold snap welL Demand for hops from a burgeoningcraftbeer industry, coupled with greater risks to fruitcrops from more extreme M idwest weather, ha s l e d M ichigan farmers to devote250 acres tothe processed flower that gives ales and stouts their bitter bite. Five years ago, there were next to none. "You can do e v erything right with cherries, and the two weeks before harvest have a really bad rain event and lose your crop," said Tennis, who owns a 30-acre farm in Omena, Mich., and is also a director of the Michigan Hop A l liance. "Hops can getfrosted several times and it'll keep coming back." Hop buds, and the 20-foothigh trellises on which theytypically grow are gaining ground in the region more commonly known as the Cherry Capital of the World.

At least one local business that relied on cherry-themed food in Traverse City had to import cherries from Poland to meet tourist demand last season. "Certainly it's a red flag," Andresen said. "Ultimately there's relatively more risk for growers with time." The transition tobeer crops is expensive for both experienced farmers and r o okie g r owers, running about $12,000 an acre for equipment and plants, MSU's Sirrine said. The crop is also labor-intensive. Flowers need to be picked, dried and ground into pellets before shipping to brewers. If the pellets are too wet, they can rot. If they're heated too much, they can lose the aromatic character needed for beer, he said. The costs didn't stop organic cherry farmer t urned hops booster Tennis, he said. He entered the hops business for his love of beer, saying that he and his wife spent the extra buck for a good brew "even when we were poor."

"We'd like to use as much as we can of Michigan ingredients, as long as we can get them," he said. Michigan hops are "definitely more expensive. We kind of just bit the bullet on that."

Ormat Technologies Inc., an alternative energy company focused on geothermal drilling, operates on every continent. The Glass Buttes project will be Ormat's first Oregon geothermal project for the company. Glass Buttes is entering phase three of a six-phase project, from seeking and obtaining land to operation. Ormat's harnesses geotherm al energy b y d r i l ling i n t o the Earth an d p u mping hot geothermal liquid — typically groundwater — into a condenser, according to the company website. The hot vapor r uns through a tube into a turbine, creating energy. The vapor i s t h e n c ooled and returned to the condenser, cooling the liquid that did not evaporate enough to return to the ground. The liquid is heated up once again by the Earth, and the process continues in a circular fashion. Although geothermal exploration is new to the Glass Buttes area, drills have been working approximately 60 miles west for 10 months. AltaRock Energy Inc., a renewable energy development company based i n S e a ttle, started geothermal exploration around the Newberry Volcano approximately 20 miles south of Bend. The e x p loration s h o w ed Newberry was "dry," containing only hot rock and no water. Without water, steam cannot push theturbines needed to create energy. Instead, AltaRock's technology creates fractures in the Earth and injects water into them, simulating t r a ditional geothermal energy harvesting. AltaRock spokesperson David Stave said the project is still a ways away from producing

Now, we're wading between projects." Stave said the difference between the N ewberry p roject and the Glass Buttes project is that AltaRock doesn't need water to generate energy. At Glass Buttes, Ormat Technologies is looking for water. "AltaRock simply has technology to m ake an a r t ificial well," he said. According to Bulletin reports, the Newberry drilling was under scrutinyin November 2012 when nearby La Pine residents noticed more than 2 0 s mall earthquakes. AltaRock officials said most of the quakes were a magnitude 1 or less. The other p ublic c oncern was AltaRock pumping plastic into the well, to seal cracks in the surface. The idea is to seal cracks so new ones will open. AltaRock said the plastic was the same used for plastic water bottles. The idea, Stave said, is to seal the fracturesmade and eventually create a geothermal source that could generate enough energy for a power plant.

gas during drilling, protection of mule deer and sage grouse and, of course, preservation of historic and cultural sites. The report states the agencies had "multiple consultation discussions" with the Klamath and W arm Springs tribes — in person, on the phone, through email or on field trips. "The BLM has been informed by Tribal staff that the proposed Projects, even though they would occupy only a very small portion of the overall Glass Buttes area, would destroy 'sacred and holy' areas," the report states. "However, the tribes have not demonstrated how the Projects would do so." The r eport c o ntinued to say the tribes have not shown how the projects' impact can be m i tigated and offered no solutions. So, the BLM concludedthat no significant structures or resources would be harmed in the project. "I sat there and told them it was sacred — I showed them pr a y e r sta c ks," Chocktoot said. "But they didn't believe me."

Deschutes County has $17,000 more to spend over the next two years on its Juvenile Department, the branch that administers services for at-risk youth and youth in detention. The Oregon Youth Authority provided the county that much more for the 2013-15 biennium than the prevtous btenntum, for a total of $726,356, according to county Juvenile Department Director Ken Hales. From that amount, $492,761 will be spent on functional family therapy, $152,141 will be allocated to detention facility medical services and the remaining $81,454 will be spent on food service for inmates. "We're really proud of our functional family
therapy program," Hales said. "It's a highly rigorous, best-practice model that gets local clinicians to go into juveniles' homes and conduct intensive
family therapy." Photos by Joe Ktine /The Bulletin

makes me feel better." Johnson was one of nearly 50 cancer survivors walking the opening lap of Relay for Life's 24-hour event Saturday at High Desert Middle
School in Bend. Relay teams never misseda stride through the sudden summer storm Saturday. The event has been held annually in Bend since 1993, said Relay for Life Regional Director Lewis Settle. "It has grown drastically," Settle said, who has been involved with the event in Bend since the first year. "It's wonderful to see." Settle said the city's first event was a 12-hour relay that ran from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. It raised more than $12,000 and had 12 teams participate. This year, he said, the event lasts 24 hours, with 46 teams and nearly $100,000 raised for the American Cancer Society. Relay for Life was started in 1985 by a Tacoma, Wash., man, Dr. Gordy Klatt, said Lauren Olander, American Cancer Societystaffpartner. SeeRelay/B6
said. The amount of funding variesfrom year to year based on a number of factors. The County Commission on Wednesday accepted an intergovernmental agreement with the OYA for the 2013-15 biennium to accept the $726,356. Hales presented information about the funding program tothe Deschutes County Public Safety Coordinating Council the day before the business meeting. The council recommended the commission approve the agreement between OYA and the county. "The OYA allocates two streams of designated funding to county juvenile departmentsto reduce recidivism and assist counties to stay within their allocated bed capacity at state youth correctional facilities," Hales said. "Counties develop and abide by service plans following the requirements." SeeJuvenile /B2

That was his persona until he was diagnosed with laryngealcancer in 2007.Hi s years working as a drywall contractor led to overexposure to asbestos. "I found myself complaining about a sore throat," he said. "Now, it's been five years since I've had food that wasn't fed through a tube." His cancer operations caused him to lose 170 pounds through radiation treatment and his throat to close off. Both his mother and father fell victim to cancer — his mother was diagnosed too late

La Pine gets judicial jolt An example of the "one man rule" with which Crook County seems tobe blessed just at present centered in La Pine recently, and appears to have made a dent in the Springer enthusiasm thereabouts. An outward and vis-
YESTERDAY ible sign of the blow beneath the belt administered by the judge to the La Pine people is the fact that today G.W. Raper is conducting a saloon there without a license: that is, Raper doesn't happen to have the license document, although the majority of the County Court authorized the issuance of one to him, until the judge said nay. The story starts at the last session of the court. Raper appeared and presented a petition, as required by law,
asking for a county saloon license. The petition was passed upon by the Deputy District Attorney. It contained 42 signatures: the statute requires a majority of voters' signatures to such a petition, and it happens that at the last La Pine election 41 ballots were cast, this showing the unanimity of the Raper request. Commissioners Brown and Bayley approved the license. Springer hemmed and hawed and frankly said he disapproved of issuing any licenses but under the circumstances he is quoted
as having added, he guessed the license would have to be issued. Mr. Raper thanked the court and left, the judge remarking that he could "go on his way rejoicing" and warning him to "walk the straight and narrow path." Raper returned to La Pine and opened his saloon. But the promised license did not arrive. He wrote County Clerk Warren Brown asking for it. Mr. Brown replied that Judge Springer, after the commissioners had gone home directed him (Brown) not to issue the license.
So there the matter stands: the court, as such, allowed the license, but the judge saw fit to reverse the court's pleasure. In the meantime Mr. Raper is operating his saloon, license or no license, having been advised by attorneys that a court order could not be rescinded by one member. Should any steps be taken to close up Raper's place, it is intimated proceedings will at once be taken testing the legality of the judge's venturing to usurp all the powers of the court.

Continued from B1 The money is still coming in. Bauersfeld said she is trying to shift efforts from Chance's reserved account to donations for the clinic in Chance's honor. "It would be a fund to help other dogs like Chance who come in here," she said. The dog was found along Smith Rock Road on July 25, about 36 hours after the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office believes the dog leapt from a mo v i n g ve h i c le. The animal's leash became caught and the driver continued on at 40 to 50 mph, a pparently u n a w ar e t h e leash was caught. The driver dragged the dog until the leash came loose and the dog tumbled free, according to the Deschutes County District Attorney's Office. On Friday, DA P a t rick Flaherty, citing a sheriff's i nvestigation, decl i n e d to f il e c r i m i nal c h a rges against anyone for abusing the animal, calling the incident "a tragic accident and not a criminal act." Three witnesses saw the
dog being dragged but did nothing until media reports surfaced about the incident, according to the DA. N ow, the dog is i n t h e "boring stage" of recovery, Bauersfeld said. He has little energy, sleeps a lot, takes pain medication and eats three to four times daily. His bandages, which he sometimes pulls off himself, are changed three times weekly and he may b e u n dergoing skin grafts in about a month, she said. Fiaherty, in his statement Friday, described Chance as "a friendly dog who's shown t remendous heart i n h i s recovery." Bauersfeld said Chance's owner has not come forward to claim him. (The DA's office has said the driver of the vehicle was not the owner of the dog.) The clinic will now put the dog up for adoption. " We've ha d a n overwhelming number of people

who want to adopt him," she said. "Now it's just finding the right one." Chance goes home with B auersfeid at n i g ht . S h e said the dog gets along very well wi th h er o ther dogs, but sometimes the cats give him playful trouble. He is becoming more playful by the day, she said. Bauersfeld said the ideal candidatefor adoptionwould be a local resident, considering Chance will need treatment occasionally. An ideal owner would be someone who could spend a lot of time with him throughout the day. She said they are goingtoscreen forsomeone who would take Chance outside frequently on hunting, camping or fishing trips, but not to dog parks. "Pit bulls are automatically blamed for anything that happens in a dog park," Bauersfeid said.
She is going to keep an eye out for people who want to adopt Chance only because of his popularity. His new owner should not be looking to share the limelight, she said. "A lot of people are getting quite excited about Chance's story in the media and his notoriety," Bauersfeld said. "We are going to make sure that we find someone who loves this dog." She hopes to find a suitable home f o r h i m by Christmas. — Reporter:541-383-0348, bandersenC<bendbulletin.com

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending Aug. 10, 1938
John Londahl will again coach BendHigh School football team John Londahl, whose Lava Bears last fall were runners up for the interscholastic championship of Oregon, will once
again head Bend's coaching staff when school starts here shortly after Labor Day, it was learned last night when final teacher assignments for 193839 were approved by members of the Bend High School board. Londahl took over the Lava Bear coaching work last fall. His team was defeated only once,by Milwaukie. Londahl will also continue as basketball coach. He will have as assistants, in football and basketball, Robert F. Baxter and Oliver E. Raikko. Baxter, a graduate from the University of Oregon who has been in the Burns High School for the last four years. Raikko, a resident of Portland, was graduated from Oregon State College in 1938. He will be an instructor in science. John G. Jones, who gave able assistance to Coach Miller Nicholson in d eveloping the team that brought Bend two consecutive state championships, is to be head track coach. Jones was a track man at the University of Nebraska for a number of years, and his ability as a coach is wellknown by persons who have been closely in t o uch w i t h Lava Bear track and field activities. This summer, Jones took work in track coaching at the University of Southern California. He also took advanced work in English. B end's coaching staff i s complete fo r t h e 1 9 3 8-39 school year.

J apan is not at war w i t h Russia, but Japan is seeking peacewith Russia. The proposal of the Japaneseforeign office that hostiiities cease points, as no recent incident has pointed, the absurdity of modern international relations. According to the lead article in the current number of The Saturday Evening Post, Japan and Russia have been fighting for the last two years. No war was declared, however, nor was a stateofwar recognized. For the matter of that, no war was declared in China. There concealment of hostilities was
impossible to the degree in the Russian- Japanese e n c ounters, but the situation is not dissimilar. Now Japan sues for peace with Russia, presumably so that it may be unnecessary to sue for peace with China, but it is too much to expect that a treaty of peace may result. What may be expected is that eventually the opposing forces will quit fighting. Then they can start again at w i l l wi t h o u t te d i ous formality.

Yogi makes TVdebut as surgeon New York Y a nkees star Yogi Berra has made his dramatic television debut — playing a brain surgeon on a network soap opera. B ewildered by t h e m a z e of lights, wires and cameras, Berra Friday collected $155 for his bit part on ABC television's " General H o spital," w h i ch stars former Cleveland Indians infielder John Beradino. Beradino and umpire Art Pasarellaalso were onstage for Berras'sdebut,made atthe request of Beradino. "I was just doing it as a favor," Berra said afterward. "He told me I wouldn't have any lines, but they gave me three after I got here. The only time I was nervous was during rehearsals." Berra noted th e e pisode appeared to be an ali-Italian show. All three baseball figures are Italian and the series is sponsored by Chef Boy-ArDee ravioli. B erra sailed through hi s lines without a fluff. Later he said "television is big enough for both me and Yogi Bear. I was going to sue the Yogi Bear program for using my name, until somebody reminded me that Yogi isn't my real name — it's Lawrence.

REGON AROUND THE STATE Grenade at Goodwill — Police in Hillsboro say a worker
sorting through donations at a Goodwill store found a hand grenade with the pin still intact.
Spokesman Lt. Mike Rouches said the building's warehouse was
evacuated Saturday morning while a Portland bomb squadcollected the grenade. The store remained open. No threat accompanied the
grenade, leading investigators to believe someone mistakenly placed it in a box of donations.

State's health insuranceexchangewon't be readywhenonline marketplaceopens By Alex Wayne Btoomberg News
WASHINGTON — Oregon, a Democratic-led state that has embraced President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act, won't meet all the requirements for its health insurance exchange when the online marketplace opens Oct. 1. For at least two weeks, people using Cover Oregon won't be able to complete their purchases without help from a certifiedinsurance broker or community group, said Lisa Morawski, an exchange spokeswoman. Consumers in all 50 states were supposed to be able to freely shop for health plans on their own. "We thought that this was an opportunity for us to open our doors on Oct. I with all the functionality but not overload the system," Morawski said Friday
by telephone. Oregon's step-back suggests that states don't have enough time to comply with next year's core implementation of the 2010 health law as Obama envisioned. Even the federal data services hub that is supposed to connect the exchanges may not get final security certification until Sept. 30, the inspector general for the Health and Human Services Department said April 5. "With all of the delays — the Supreme Court delay, the election — states and HHS for that matter simply don't have enough time to put this together as it should be," said Dan Schuyler, director of exchange technology at the consulting firm Leavitt Partners in Salt Lake City. Oregon is one of 14 states building its own exchanges. The federal govern-
ment is doing most or all of the work in the remaining 36 states. The U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which is supervising the building of stateexchanges, is aware of Oregon's plan and isn't concerned, Brian Cook, an agency spokesman, said in an email. "There will be a marketplace open in every state on Oct. 1, where families can comparison shop for quality, affordable health coverage," Cook said. Federally run exchanges will be fully open to consumers on time, he added. Delays in some provisions of the Affordable Care Act are becoming more commonplace as key deadlines in October and January approach. On July 2, the White House said large employers would get a one-year reprieve until 2015 on a requirement that most companies offer health coverage to workers.
The aviation desk of the Prineville dispatch center was busy
sending aircraft to southwest Oregon and to a fire burning near
JohnDay,aswellastoWashington, where anewfire cropped up near Wenatchee, Mickel said.
Around thestate, raln complicates firefighting The state was peppered with 10,000 lightning strikes Friday and
Saturday, accompanied bysome rain, but fire managers had yet to determine if it made much of an
impact. "The precipitation did hamper some firefighting efforts. Firefight-
ers couldn't do backburn kind of things because of precipitation in
certain areas," said SarahLevy, spokeswomanfor the Northwest Interagency Coordination Center. "But obviously precipitation is
usually a goodthing for fires," she added. "Everyone's still trying to sort out what the picture is."

Oregon appealscourt reversessexabusemnviction By Nigel Duara The Associated Press
PORTLAND — The Oregon Court of Appeals has overturned the conviction of a man found guilty of sodomy and sex abuse after it ruled a lower court erroneously allowed a previous victim of his to testify. Prosecutors said the previous conviction was necessary to show Javier Roquez knew what he was doing was a crime. Roquez's defense team said the convic-
tion, from 2006, should have been inadmissible because it wasn't related to the new
rape case. Roquez was accused of raping a woman with whom he was having an affair in May 2010 in the city of Irrigon. According to the original police report,Roquez and the woman were each married to other people, and their families were friends. The woman, who lived in Kennewick, Wash., decided to call off the affair but said
Roquez threatened to tell their spouses unless she would have sex with him a last time. During intercourse, the woman said she tried to leave but Roquez refusedto let her go, despite her pleas, and said the sex turned violent. A doctor later examined her and found evidence of sexual assault. Roquez was charged with one count of first-degree rape, one count of first-degree sodomy and two counts of second-degree sexual abuse.
Before trial, prosecutors sought to enter evidence of the previous assault in 2006, in which Roquez had pleaded guilty to second-degree sexual abuse, and allow the victim to testify. The judge allowed it. The trial judge told jurors that they could use the 2006 victim's testimony to determine whether Roquez knew what he was doing was a crime. The appeals court ruled that such an admission was a mistake.

In Eastern Oregon, the state fire marshal said cool weather and light rain allowed officials monitoring the Grouse Mountain Fire
near John Day to lift a warning that structures are threatened. Nearly 7,000 firefighters and
support staff are tackling blazes across Oregon. At the Big Windy
Complex northwest of Grants Pass, a firefighter who suffered from a heart condition had to be evacuated late Friday afternoon. A
spokesman for the incident team said the firefighter remained in the
hospital Saturday andhis condi-
tion is stable. — Fromstaffand wirereports

Early in life Bud learned the value of hard work andspent most of hisfree time working, most notably for theHorseHeaven Mines as Pa teenager. After graduating from Crook County HighSchool in 1944, he enlisted in the US AirForceand was stationed in Korea as a Sergeant in the 56th Fighting Control SEP. Returning fromservice, Bud married Eula Hammons on June 27, 1947, and started to build his family. Bud also started work in the logging industry falling trees,and later started a gas station with his brother, Wilbur. In 1954, Bud and his brother started in carsales,where he eventually ended up with the Ford brand in 1954. Bud ran Shrum FordSales until 2001. In 1964, Bud ventured into the Ready Mixbusinessand started OchocoReady Mix which is still in operation today. Bud also developed many real estateventuresthrough the yearswith property from Fossil to Prineville. Most importantly was the life our father and grandfather lived, and his devotion to the family which he began. From his four children, Fawnie Wood, Sandi Huston, Jackie Brown, and Day "Butch" Shrum, and his eight grandchildren, and nine great-grandchildren, Bud was always an integral part of everyone's life. Also of great value to all who knew Bud, were the stories he would tell about the history in the area. His knowledge of Central Oregon history was astounding, and would draw many an ear when theyweretold. Lastly, Bud will be missed by many a hunter duringdeer / and elkseason,and for thosewho loved him he will be sorely missed. ~i A privateservicewill be held at the Cherry Creek homestead for Bud and his wife, Eula, who passed away in 2011.

WESTFIR — Eric Staley vividly remembers the day in 1985 when the Pope 8 Talbot lumber mill closed down in Oakridge. More than 1,000 people, including his father, were instantly out of work. "I remember seeing the look in my dad's eyes," said Staley. "Having the rug pulled out from under him, after all those years he gave tothecompany ... Itwas hard." One year earlier, the Hines Lumber Co. in nearby Westfir had also permanently closed. When Pope 8 Talbot shut its doors, the neighboring towns — their joint population barely 4,000 — practically boarded up their windows and rolled up the sidewalks. That was a generation ago.

Culveror ersup1,200poun so craw a s • The tiny crustaceans being servedat the festival arestraight from LakeBilly Chinook By Mac McLean The Bulletin
People from Louisiana say "crawfish" with a W and
people from New England say crayfish with a Y. But Culver's 1,300 residents use the word crawdad — with a D-A-D just like your father — when they talk about the 1,200 pounds of tiny lobster-like crustaceans they will pull from the waters of Lake Billy Chinook and serveto the masses Saturday as part of an annual feast. Now in its fourth year, the
Culver Crawdad Festival features a parade, a 5K obstaclecourse race, a Dutch oven cooking competition and an $8-a-plate dinner that comes with a pound of crawfish, corn on the cob, a slice of watermelon and a drink.
"There's going to be a huge
varietyoffood atthis festival, but the crawdads will be our biggest attraction," said Culver Mayor Shawna Clanton, who started the festival with the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce to promote her town. She expects 1,000 people will show
up forthe feast. According to the International Association of Astacology, there are 500 different species of crawfish that live in the freshwater streams and lakes of the world. More than 350 of these species live in the United States, according to the Pittsburgh-based association that's been studying crawfish since 1972. Signal crawfish — named after a white patch like a signalman's flag on their claws — are Oregon's only native crawfish species, according to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. The state is also home to three invasive speciesof crawfish: the red-
dish-brown rusty crawfish that comes from Ohio and Kentucky, the red-bumped red swamp crawfish from Louisiana and the orangeand-black-banded ringed crawfish from the Great Plains. According to the USDA's Agricultural Marketing Resource Center, crawfish made up a $182 million industry in 2010, with more than 110.9 million pounds of them being raised in commercially managed ponds and farms and another 16.6 million pounds being caught wild in the country's lakes, streams and drainage systems.

"Be sure you're among the first to apply," advises MacDonald. Preferences: It's helpful to know yourself well when it comes to shopping for potential house sits. If an opportunity requires four months of hobby farm management, and you only have canine experience with three weeks of vacation time available, you probably shouldn't apply. Are you a gifted gardener? That cottage sit in England with extensive flower beds might the perfect match. Chavis says it's also important to consider infrastructure when reviewing house sit listings. One of the first things she checks is whether a location is near public transportation. Says Chavis, "Many homeowners offer their car for use during our stay. If not, we need to know how best to get around on public transportation." Platforms: Knowing where to look f o r h o use sitting

They told me about the hyena and the hare — explaining howtwo creatures who were once close friends became eternal enemies after each deceived the other for his own gain — and I told them about the boy who cried wolf (which I changed to lion). They told me the tale of Oltatuanii, in which a Maasai woman saves her people from a murderous giant; I told them about Scheherazade.
By Michael Benanav New York Times News Service
In the market town of Narok, Kenya, 90 miles west of Nairobi, I was buying a Kenyan SIM c ard for my cellphone when I heard someone behind me calling my name. He was wearing a bright red shuka, t he traditional shawl of t h e Maasai people. Colorful beaded jewelry circled his neck, hung from his ears and ringed his wrists. At his waist, a short steel sword was sheathed in red leather. His feet were clad in sandals made from old tires. "Salaton?" I asked. "Yes! Welcome!" he said, adding, " I'll w ai t f o r y o u outside." A Maasai chief, Salaton Ole Ntutu had come to take me to his village, Maji Moto, where he runs the Maji Moto Maasai Cultural Camp. There, visitors stay in his tribal community, learning about the ways of the Maasai and getting a feel for the landscape they live within. Although the camp is highly rated on TripAdvisor, I wasn't really sure where the experience would fall on the spectrum between "farcically touristy" and "viscerally authentic" (which aren't official review categoriesbut perhaps shouldbe).Before we even left Narok, I got my first indicator as Salaton loaded a brown and white ewe, which he had just bought at the market, into the taxi with us; liking the sheep's looks, he had decided to add it to his flock. The paved road turned to dirt, then became a muddy track aswe cut across the Loita Plains. Herds of Thomson's gazelles, wildebeests and zebras casually grazed on the lush carpet of grass that had sprouted du ring u n u sually heavy December rains, which were continuing into e arly January. Reaching Maji Moto, I realized it was not a village in the classic sense of the word. A lthough there is a " t o w n center" with a few basic drygoods shops, a b u tcher, a grain mill and a tin shack of a pub serving warm Tusker (Kenya's most popular beer), most Maasai in the area don't live near it. Each family dwells in a manyatta — a small compound of stick-and-mud huts, with wooden pens for herds of cattle, sheep and goats, and no next-door neighbors. Maji Moto's manyattas are spread out over miles of undeveloped semi-arid rangelands at the foot of the Loita Hills and are home tosome 3,000 people. Salaton's camp is basically a manyatta of its own. For $100 a night, guests stay in mud huts that are simple but clean, with comfortable beds, mosquito nets and solar-powered lights — or, for $75, in Coleman tents with mattresses. Meals like stewed goat meat, fried potatoes, pasta, carrot salad and ugali (similar to polenta) are freshly cooked over charcoal or propane by a c h arming warrior named Sinti, who's as good with a spatula as a spear (and the ritual scarring on his leg, earned when he helped kill a lion, is proof of his skill with the l atter). The toilets are well-built outhouses, and showers aregravity-fed from

A cultural education I stayed in and around Maji Moto for 10 days last winter (well before the State Department's recent worldwide travel alert). Before three travelers from California arrived, the only other guests were two Kenyans who are collaborating with Salaton on a regional conservation project, trying to protect vast tracts of Maasai lands. Once communally owned, the area has recently been divvied up into private plots that individuals may sell to anyone, raising fears that they will be bought by commercial or industrial developers who do not have the best interests of the environment or the tribe in mind. Through our conversations about land rights issues, wildlife migrations, livestock grazing patterns and cultural traditions, I began to piece together an increasingly nuanced picture

of the context into which I had landed. And day by day, I saw more of the world of the Maasai of Maji Moto. There was the bustling weekly livestock market in the nearby town of Ewaso Nero where Maasai herders filled a dusty corral half as large as a football field with sheep, goats and cows, selling them mostly to meat merchants from Nairobi. I bathed in the Maji Moto hot springs with the locals and was led on guided hikes into the easily climbed Loita Hills, where it seemed as if everything that grew had s ome m edicinal, nutritional o r s p i ritual significance. The leaves of the sagelike compa bushes, for instance, are rubbed under the armpits like deodorant; twigs from the l eafy o l k isikongu tree are used as natural tooth-
brushes;and the sacred oreteti trees, under which the Maasai pray to their god, Enkai, are said to have the power to dispel bad energy and instill peace. A couple of hundred yards behind the Cultural Camp is the "widows' village." In Maasai communities, women often outlive their husbands but are forbidden from r emarrying. Some of these widows, and their children, are left destitute, with no livestock (the traditionally favored currency of the Maasai). Urged by his mother to address this problem, Salaton built a m anyatta where poor widows live together like a family, earning money by working at the camp and selling beautifully beaded jewelry to tourists. The camp also pays for their and their children's medical expenses. When I first went to their manyatta, the

There w a s Rose, a teenage seamstress with a hair-trigger smile, who teaches the widows how to sew when she isn't working with tourists; Joyce, a college graduate in her early 20s recently hired to help Salaton with the business side of the camp; and Meeri, who was in her last year of high school in Maji Moto after fleeing her own village a few years earlierto escape a marriage her parents were arranging for her. "I'd heard that the leader here helped girls like me," she said, and described her threeday walk a lone across the bush,sleeping inthe branches of trees at night. Our rapport was easy as we asked and answered questions about our cultures. Among our many conversations, we compared diff erences between Maasai and American marriages. When I explained that we don't have dowries, don't practice polygamy and get to choose our spouses, they liked the way all of that sounded. But they didn't immediately embrace the ideathat a wife might be older than her husband.

It was a bonanza of wildlife. Seeing these animals truly m ove, not pace orsleep in a zoo enclosure, was a r evelation. Once, we stopped to watch a cheetah with three cubs slinking through the grass in front of a family of elephants, as a w arthog pranced off i n t h e opposite direction, a h y ena lurked to the south and groups of impalas grazed to the north; it was like a live version of the opening scene of "The Lion King." I put down my camera. It was simply too magnificent, too moving, to want to experience through a viewfinder. Before I left Maji Moto, I asked Salaton how he became chief. He said that M aasai medicine men have a vision and see which young boy in the community is meant to be a tribal leader. Then that boy must consume what he called "dangerous plants", if he survives, he will be made chief. "And if he doesn't survive?" I asked. "Then t he e lders w e r e wrong," he said. "Oh," I said, torn between conflicting impulses to judge a nd to understand with an open mind. After 10 days in M a asai country, it was a feeling that had become quite familiar.

has an impact," Dreiling said. "If (mountain biking) wasn't there, there would be a lot fewer jobs in the summer. "We have a ski resort nearby (Willamette Pass), but most people are from Eugene and they just pass through. The same is true of hunting and fishing seasons. The biking season is more spread out, and we have so many trails, people sometimes come to Oakridge and stay a week." Beamer and Dreiling are well-known in t h e n ational mountain-biking community. Both appeared in a w i d ely circulated 2011 documentary movie, "Pedal-Driven," and Beamer has testified before Congress on behalf of mountainbikers. "We're a small town with s mall-town c h a r m, " sa i d Beamer, "and there are lots of friendly people to show bikers the right direction. And if you go to the Mountain Mercantile, there is always somebody willing to point things out and make suggestions for rides."

Westfir Lodge Staley had never worked in the hospitality industry before he bought the Westfir Lodge. A co l l ege tr a c k-and-field athlete, he earned degrees
in p sychology and b u s i ness, took a job with Hewlet t- P ackard in Corvallis, then worked in quality c o ntrol S t a ley
for a Bend engineering firm. But he frequently returned to O akridge to visit his parents and about five
years ago began studying that market for real estate. "I saw a spark when the brewpub opened," he said. That was five years ago, when brewer/owner Ted Sobel establishedBrewers Union Local 180 as a "public house" on East First Street, in a district generously called Old Town. Even today, there isn't so much as a sign to persuade Eugenebound motorists to detour a half-mile off state Highway 58, the main drag t hrough Oakridge, for a pint of caskaged, British-style ale. But the family-friendly pub f lourished, seeing much o f its business from winter skiers and summer mountain bikers drawn t o h u n dreds of miles of single-track trail in the surrounding hills and river valleys. And when Staley learned that its owners of 22 years were putting the Westfir Lodge up for auction, he sat up and took notice. With a bid of $140,000, he became the owner in December. And he was immediately enchanted by what he calls "a gem of the Oakridge-Westfir area." About 98 miles southwest of Bend via U.S. Highway 97 and Crescent, Oakridge was an early-20th-century railroad hub that, following World War II, evolved into a lumber center along with the company village of Westfir, only four miles west. Oregon's longest covered bridge, the 180-foot-long Office Bridge across the North Fork of the Middle Fork of the Willamette River, remains a p rominent landmark at t h e south end of the Aufderheide National Scenic Byway. Staley's lodge, surrounded by a lush garden, stands opposite the bridge. "The building is a museum," he said. "It's definitely inspirational. More than anything I've ever done, I think of it as a canvas that I can shape as I want." The previous owners had left it with a Victorian ambience. "I decided to minimize the pink color palette and the doilies," Staley said. "I wanted to make it more a place where the lumberjacks had once come. So I let the house talk. I listened to its stories about the rivers, the trains, the local players. And I asked myself, how can it best serve the community? As a hotel? A restaurant? "Ultimately, this is an economic redevelopment project. And I love that part of it." Nancy Lochrie is the resid ent m a nager a n d c o o k .

At the Mercantile Oakridge's m ountain-biking hub, I quickly learned, is Willamette Mountain Mercantile. Owner McKenzie Bowerman has relocated to Coburg, near Eugene, but a dedicated staff continues to sell and rent bicycles and accessories to avid bicyclists from around the world. On myrecentvisit tothe Mercantile, I was greeted by Erika Coyer, who together with her husband, Norm Coyer, owns the upscale Double Diamond Lodge on Hills Creek Reservoir, five miles southeast of Oakridge. She sold me a fine, weatherproof trail map detailing every trail in the region, and shared more knowledge of the best trails to ride. Coyer directed me to get in touch with Randy Dreiling, director of the Oakridge-Westfir Chamber of Commerce and owner of Mountain Bike Oregon and the Oregon Adventures, which operates a recreational shuttle service. Dreiling, 45, is as hard-core a mountain biker as you're likely to find: "I have old pictures of me when I was 3 and 4 years old, on a tricycle with a bucket on my head," he said. Dreiling h a s be e n in Oakridge since 2002. "I had looked at doing what I'm doing now in the early '90s," he said, "but the time wasn't right. It was a d i f ferent vibe t hen, with the mills having recently

I asked both Beamer and Dreiling to recommend local rides. Both men cautioned me that the Oakridge-area terrain is not as "beginner-friendly" as the Bend area's. "Our country is a bit steeper than Bend, and more exposed," Beamer explained. "We're working on s ome more beginner trails," he said. "but most ar e i ntermediate and advanced. I find the trails in Bend to be faster and longer than ours in Oakridge, so that a good 20-mile ride there is equal to a 10-mile ride here." "There's a lot more climbing in Oakridge, even if you start by taking a shuttle to a trailhead," Dreiling said. "In other words, you're earning it."

For frequent travelers, this hasbeen amiserable summer of flight delays and cancellations. In the past few weeks a lone, I've been stuck i n Austin, Texas; Aspen, Colo.; Denver; Boston; and Toronto. I've spent my downtime at various airports chatting up agents, crew and other staff. While some of the problem is related to weather, it turns out that there are lots of other reasons fordelays, from computer crashes to shoddy equipment t o u ntr a i n ed staff. While you can't force a plane to take off in a lightening storm, I now know that there are ways to game the system. You may not always be in a situation where a 90-minute delay is a problem. But if you must make a connecting flight — or if you really do need to get home or to your meeting on time — the following tips might come in

Oakridge-area locals enjoy a family-style wine-tasting dinner on the patio of the Westfir Lodge. Under new ownership, the historic nine-room inn — where the Edward Hines Lumber Co. once had its offices — has added a popular restaurant.
From previous page My trail map describes it as a "big kahuna" of Oakridge bike trails, "a one-way trail with over 3,000feet of descending on hard-packed, banked corner, huge tree, big view, near perfect single-track." "It's what a lot of p eople come to ride,"said Beamer. "But it's probably not my favorite. Others are equal or better." A longer, full day's ride is the Middle Fork Trail, which descends 2,100 feet in 40 miles, following the Middle Fork of the Willamette River from its source at Timpanogas Lake southwest of Crescent Lake. Dreiling'sOregon Adventures takes reservations for shuttle service: "The price is good," said Beamer, "and the shuttle might help you extend your ride by a couple of hours." Beamer said his favorite ride is the 23 miles around 5,400-
foot-high Waldo Lake, consideredtobe one of the purest lakes in the world. "It's a very unique backcountry experience," he said. "There are not a lot of places where you can ride along the crest of the Cascades, through subalpine forest at the edge of wilderness." And while that trail can be challenging f o r b e g i nners, Beamer said, "it's something a beginner can achieve. Pace yourself, make sure you have plenty of food and water, and give yourself the day." Road cyclists are not excluded from t h e O a k r idge fraternity; indeed, the 60-mile Aufderheide Scenic Byway, linking the Willamette Pass

taurant, which doesn't require a museum ticket and offers bay views along with an oyster and sushi bar, seasonal salads and pizzas and entrees like baked spelt pasta with fresh ricotta. For grown-ups who prefer their scientific inquiry in a quieter atmosphere — and with cocktail in hand — the Exploratorium is open to adults only on T hursday evenings, when bars dot the
galleries. The new facility itself is an experimentin green engineering. Electricity is supplied by 5,874 high-efficiency rooftop solar panels, enough to power 1,000 average American homes, and the indoor temperature is regulated by a heatexchange system using bay water to heat and cool a closed loop of fresh water circulating through pipes embedded in the concrete floor. After atwo-year
post-opening shakedown period of monitoring and adjusting the systems, the Exploratorium hopes to become the largest net-zero-energy-use museum in the United States and possibly the world. Before the new Exploratorium opened in April, there was some concern that its larger size and industrial-handsome interior might not sit well with the many fans of the funky o riginal. But j u dging f r om the enthusiasm of the nearly 295,000 visitors who crowded the Embarcaderolocation during its first three months, that hasn't been the case.

clared a national historic landmark and is the focal point of a long, active boardwalk. Like many boardwalk rides, this one can be paid for a la carte; it is not part of a park that has a flat-rate admission. One of the most exciting aspects of the ride is the way that it starts. Just after leaving the station, it enters a pitch-black tunnel and twists and turns even before getting to the lift. After the first drop is an immediate hard turn that leads to a couple of hills before another turn and a set of bouncy hills. If you like the wind through your hair and your stomach in your throat, Giant Dipper is a fairly no-frills path to a feverish amount of air time, that feeling of weightlessness that coaster lovers crave. Tickets: $6 (six tickets at $1 each), b eachboardwalk.com

There are people who go to amusement parks for the rides, for the nostalgia, for the cotton candy and, of course, to placate their children. Then there are people like me who buy a ticket with a singular purpose: to take as many roller coaster rides as humanly possible. I recently stretched this exercise out a full week during a visit to California, which, according to the Roller Coaster DataBase, has more than 80 operating coasters, the most in the nation. In one topsy-turvy, dizzying trip from the Bay Area to Los Angeles, I rode 40 roller coasters in eight parks. Taking breaks only to fuel up on turkey legs, funnel cakes and Dippin' Dots ice cream, I tried out the newest rides (Full Throttle at Magic Mountain and Gold Striker at California's Great America) and the oldest (Giant Dipper at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk). I rode most every kind of coaster, from the inverted kind, where you dangle from the track above you (Silver Bullet at Knott's Berry Farm) to indoor coasters that work narratives into the ride (Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Studios Hollywood). Following is a look at five of the most intriguing coasters I came across on my journey. Each represents a d i fferent style and should not be missed when considering your own marathon coaster tour through the state. (For aheart-pounding video exploration of the coasters, go to nytimes.com/travel.)
of a steelie. Unlike Giant Dipper, the Gold Striker relies on sharp curves — like an 85-degree bank at one point — rather than bouncy hills. It starts off with a b ang: There is a 103-foot first drop that goes through a tunnel, which the park calls the "Mine Shaft." Then the track makes a quick turn and races along above the ride queue, allowing those in line to feel the reverberations of the track as they wait. I rode the coaster within a month of its opening, a considerable bonus because there had been little time for the wood to shift around and for the ride to become bumpy. (Although it was before the park added an additional tunnel to shield the riders' screams h
roll before plunging downward and taking you through a small loop. So basically, it's insanity. Superman is loaded with air time, and one of its most exciting elements is that final, compact noninverting loop, which means you complete a full loop but the track twists so that you don't go upside down — you're atop it at the highest point.

Dear Abby:I am fed up with my father's hoarding. Junk is piled everywhere, and our cat has twice gotten hurt in the piles. If there is a spare corner, junk is thrown in it. When I try to say anything, Dad gets defensive over his "stuff," and my mother defends his "pack rat" DEAR ways. She says they ABBY are his things, not mine. I'm extremely embarrassed when friends, relatives or neighbors visit. What do you do when someone doesn't believe this is a problem? — Embarrassed inPennsylvania Dear Embarrassed:There is nothing you can say that will fix your father'sproblem because it's a psychological disorder. Even if he was willing to do something about his hoarding, it would take the assistance of a mental health professional and a support group to help him let go of his "stuff" because it would be like letting go of a part of himself. If you're still living at home with your parents, all you can do is keep your own space as neat and organized as possible and not allow your father's problem to affect your selfesteem. Once you can afford to live
on your own — move. After that, if your father's hoarding continues to the point it becomes a danger to your parents' health or a fire hazard, quietly notify the fire department or health department, which then may be able to intervene.
Dear Abby: My husband and I had a b eautiful baby b o y f our m o nths a g o . Since then, he has admitted that he married me only to have a child. My husband says he "cares for me," but he's not in love with me. Still, he provides for all my needs and I don't want a divorce. I know

Eaton competes in the men's long jump of the decathlon at the world track and field championships in Moscow on Saturday.
For The Bulletin
MOSCOW — United States track star Ashton Eaton is in position to win a world championship in the decathlon, the one major title he has not yet won. The Mountain View High School graduate and former University of Oregon star had an up-and-down performance as the world track and field championships began on Saturday at Luzhniki Stadium. When the dust settled, Eaton held a nine-point lead after the first five events in the two-day, 10-event competition. Eaton scored 4,502 points, ahead of fellow American Gunnar Nixon (4,493). Eaton, who won Olympic gold and set the world record in the decathlon in 2012, led at the start, but he actually trailed Nixon by more than a hundred points through four events. Eaton took the lead back with a blistering time of 46.02 seconds in the 400 meters, the final event of the day. It was the fastest decathlon 400 ever run at worlds, according to the International Association of Athletics Federations.
Eaton gave his competitors an earlywake-up callwhen the competition started at 9:35 a.m. local time with the 100 meters. He clocked a time of 10.35 seconds, a hundredth of asecond offthe fastest-ever time in a decathlon 100 at worlds. Eaton was cautious out of the blocks, since there had already been a false start in his heat, but he pulled away from the field over the final 50 meters. The long jump, the second event in the decathlon, is always one of Eaton's best disciplines, and it was no different on Saturday. He improved on each of his three jumps, ending up with a mark of 25 feet, 4'/~ inches to take the overall lead by 59 points after two events. Eaton is the odds-on favorite to win today. But no reigning Olympic decathlon champion has ever gone on to win gold at the following world championship. Not only is every decathlon competition a minefield — 10 events in which anything could go wrong — but it is also a mental struggle, something that Eaton has talked about at length. SeeEaton /D6

Offense is out of control. Points have never been more plentiful in college football. If touchdowns could be weighed, they would be measured in tons. And yards? On some Saturdays it seems you could get to the moon and back with all the ground that gets covered. Quarterbacks are better trained than ever before and their skills more diverse. The days when a QB was a rare commodity if he could run AND pass are long
violators. Hefty fines are levied for holding gay
pride rallies. Foreigners can be deported. Whether Putin is
listening to the outcry is unclear, but the back-
lash has eventriggered calls for a boycott of the games that he was
instrumental in securing for Russia. —TheAssociated Press
GOLF: PGA CHAMPIONSHIP
Furyk leads with one round left By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press
PITTSFORD, N.Y. — The final moments Saturday at Oak Hill brought out more emotion as big putts kept falling in the PGA Championship, with
one big difference. These putts were for par. Jim Furyk, after a 3wood struck so poorly off the 18th tee that he couldn't have reached the green even if he had been in the fairway, worked his way up the 472-yard hole until he had a 15-foot putt to keep a one-shot lead. SeePGA/D4

gone. Offensive coordinators aren't afraid to blend eras and philosophies if it'll get them a first down. A little triple-option here. A little West Coast there. A dash of
run-and-shoot for flavor. "Every Saturday you're seeing all of football history i n e very game," said Chris B. Brown, the author of "The Essential Smart Football" and the Smart Football blog. And to top it all off, they're running plays almost as fast as Usain Bolt can run the 200. Outside of Tuscaloosa, Ala., and a few other spots around the country, defenses have become defenseless. "In the early '90s, the defenses were ahead and Miami was dominating defensively. Things kind of evolved," said Arizona State coach Todd Graham, a former defensive coordinator."But I will tell you, the last 10 years, man, it's
been steadily, steadily, steadily the offenses having the edge. The game has
changed." How does a defensive coach deal with it? "It's hard," UCLA coach Jim Mora said, his eyes widening and his voice rising. "It's crazy." Mora, a former NFL d efensive coordinator, is one of the many feeling flummoxed. Defensive innovators haven't been able to counter with Xs and Os. They're hoping a different approach in recruiting might help or possibly doubling down on fundamentals. Something to turn around a trend that's been developing for years. SeeDefenseless/D6

James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and Ray Allen. Oden was thrilled to play three consecutive games of full-court, 4-on-4 last week.
The goal is simple: play basketball again. "I'm 25 (years old) now ... i've got an oldbody," Oden said. "I understand. My body is not going to be (iike it was) when I was 18 and able to run aii day and jump over people. I can't do that. It's just not going to happen. My knees, the wear and tear, I understand that. "But I'm aplay as hard as I can. I'm going to try to jump over people and I'm going to try to run all day. If my body lets me, I'H do it." St. Vincent Sports Performance has been the center of Oden's rehab efforts.That's where he trained to prepare for the 2007 draft with Mike Coniey, Jr. and Carl Landry. Mario C h a lmers, G o r don H ayward, Alec B u rks a n d Patrick Patterson have also gone through the NBA predraft training program at the facility. Executive director Ralph Reiff said Oden is no longer

San Antonio, Cleveland, Dallas, New Orleans, Sacramento and Atlanta all showed interest. That smile reappeared, frustration and disappointment a distant memory, before Oden answered. "My friends told me, 'If you take out the possibility of getting hurt again, what other choice is there'?'" Oden said. "if I take out the possibility of getting hurt, why would I not play with the champs? "If LeBron decides to get another ring, I get one too, now."

Adam Scott, w hose sweet swing turned sour on the last few holes, was on the verge of letting the lead get another shot away from him when he knocked in a 15-foot putt for par on the 17th hole, bowed his head and pumped his fist. And then there was Jason Dufner, whose disappointment turned to surprise on the 18th hole when he took a step toward the cup to tap in a missed putt and watched gravity pull it into the hole for a par that put him in the final Lenny Ignelzi /The Associated Press
The New York Yankees' lchiro Suzuki will soon join Pete Rose and Ty Cobb as the only players with 4,000 hits in baseball history.
MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL
Edgy is thecrown of the hit kings • Ichiro is set to become the third player with
4,000 hits inprofessionalbaseball history By Benjamin Hoffman

New Yoriz Times News Service
Negro leagues.
If one word can describe the members of baseball's 4,000hit club, it is determination. A close second is anger. Pete R o se , n i c k n amed Charlie Hustle, once brutally injured a fellow player while trying to score in the All-Star Game. He is barred from the game for gambling on his own team's games. In the 4,000-hit club, he is known as the nice one. Ty Cobb, the club's founding member, was nearly as famous for hi s r acism and
But should one choose to accept his combined hit total, Suzuki, some would say, would be a good fit in an exclusive fraternity whose two current members had lessthan-stellar reputations with fans and th e n ews media. While not outwardly angry like Rose or Cobb, Suzuki has had his detractors. "Ichiro's problem is he is too aloof," said Robert Whiting, an expert on Japanese baseball and the author of "The Meaning of Ichiro." "I remember going to Seattle and watching him after the games, and he'd sit at his locker with his back to the reporter, and his interpreter would field the questions and he'd give his answer and the interpreter would t r anslate, and he'd never look at the reporters. It was rude."
propensity for spiking players as he was for his batting prowess. In 1910, when Cobb's teammates believed Nap Lajoie of the Cleveland Naps had ended Cobb's streak ofbatting titles, many w ere r eported to have sent Lajoie letters of congratulations. Some time in the next few w eeks, th e 4 , 000-hit c l u b may have a third member, one whose first name, when t ranslated into E n glish, i s "most cheerful boy." But close watchers of Ichiro Suzuki, the New York Yankees' 39-yearold right-fielder, know that his demeanor is a little more complicated than his sunny name
Issues with Ichiro
He also a l ienated teammates, with reports that many were frustrated that Suzuki seemed m o r e co n c erned with increasing his hit total than helping them win. That criticism has followed Suzuki since his days in Japan.

group. Perhaps those scenes were a prelude for today, the final round of the final major of the year. "It's only going to get harder," Furyk said. Oak Hill finally had enough elements for a tough test, and Furyk showed enough of his veteran grit for a 2-under 68 and a one-shot lead over Dufner. Grinding to the end in a swirling wind that cast doubt on so many shots, Furyk closed with two clutch putts — one for birdie to regain the lead, the par putt to keep it — that put him 18 holes away from winning another major 10 years after his U.S. Open title. There was nothing fancy about the way he worked his way to the top of the leaderboard at 9-under 201, but then, that's rarely the case with Furyk. He made three birdies and two tough pars on the back nine, and the one bogey was a bunker shot that hit the pin and rolled 7 feet away. He was so wrapped up in his game that he didn't even know the score. "Give me a leaderboard. Where are we at?"he asked before he was told he was one shot ahead of Dufner, and two clearofHenrik Stenson. "I'm comfortable with where I'm at," Furyk said. "There's a crowded leaderboard at the top, and instead of really viewing it as who is leading and who is not, I'm really viewing it as I need to go out there tomorrow and put together a good, solid round of golf. Fire a good number and hope it stacks up well." Dufner was eight shots worse than his record-tying 63, but at least he got into the final group at the PGA Championship for the second time in three years. At the Atlanta Athletic Club in 2011, he had a four-shot lead with four holes to go and lost to Keegan Bradley in a playoff. "I was young, new to doing the majors," Dufner said. "I think that was the third or fourth major I played in. So hopefully, the experience I've had since then will pull me through and give me a chance to win tomorrow." Stenson, a runner-up at the British Open three weeks ago, dropped only one shot over the last 16 holes and ran in a pair of 12-foot birdie putts for a 69 and was two shots behind. Sweden's odds of winning a major have never been this high. Stenson will play in the penultimate group with Jonas Blixt, who had a 66. The surprise was Scott, who w as poised to seize control at any moment. Scott blasted a driver on the uphill, 318-yard 14th hole that was so pure he snatched his tee from the ground as the ball was still rising. It stopped 25 feet below thecup,and he had an eagle putt to tie for the lead. The Australian twoputted for birdie, and two holes later fell back with a double bogey on the 16th. Scott escaped further damage with a 15-foot par save on the 17th and managed a 72. He was four shots behind, along with Steve Stricker, who had a 70. Those were the only five players within five shots of the lead. Still with an outside chance was Rory McIlroy, who came to life with three birdies over his last six holes for a 67.

"It was good to feel the sort of rush again," McIlroy said. He was at 3 u nder, still six shots behind. Woods, meanwhile, will have to wait eight more months to end his drought in the majors. He opened with two bo-
geys in three holes and shot a 73 to fall 13 shots behind. It was a shocking performance from the world's No. I player, mainly because he was coming off a seven-shot win at Firestone that included a 61. Woods has made only seven birdies in 54 holes — four of them on par 3s. British Open champion Phil Mickelson was even worse. He sprayed the ball all over Oak Hill on his way to a 78, matching his highest score ever in the PGA Championship. No one looked terribly comfortable at the start, not with the swirling wind and water hazard that winds its way along the front nine. U.S. Open champion Justin Rose fell apart early with back-to-back double bogeys that sent him to a 42. He wound up with a 77. Scott opened with a 20-foot birdie putt, only to follow with back-toback bogeys. And when Dufner ended his string of pars by driving into the creek on No. 5 for double bogey, it appeared that this tournament was wide open. Theleaders steadied themselves, leaving the title today still up for grabs, but likely among fewer players. Scott knows as well as anyone how unpredictable a final round can be. He was four shots up with four holes to play at the British Open last year and watched Ernie Els win the claret jug. At Muirfield last month, Mickelson came from five shots behind on the final day and won by three. "I would like to be leading," Scott said. "Four back is well within reach. Anything can happen in a major. We just saw the pin spots get tough today, and scoring in the final groups was very difficult. With so much danger around, it's hard to be completely free where major pressure is on the line. Tomorrow is going to be similar."

Continued from D1 Belgium's Yannick Eijssen, riding for BMC racing, was third — 31 seconds behind Horner. Eijssen led for much of the race until Horner and Danielson overtook him on the climb to Snowbird. Horner didn't compete in the Tour de France earlier this year because of knee surgery after earning top-15 finishes in 2010 and 2012. The Tour of Utah is Horner's first major race since recovering from surgery. His knee has held up from start to finish through all five
Horner received significant criticism from some cycling fans on Twitter for sitting on his wheel and passing Danielson near the finish. The veteran cyclist defended his action, saying he had to keep pace because a small group of cyclists were right behind him — waiting for both riders to drop back so they could counterattack. " Tactically, I knew I w a s in a good spot to sit on (his wheel)," Horner said. "It's my right to sit on. It feels bad to do it because Tommy is a friend of mine. But you got to do what you got to do at times." Horner and Danielson are tied in t ime in t h e overall standings, but Horner is listed firstbecause of his stage victory.

Danielson seemed to be in good position to win after taking the lead on the final climb up Little Cottonwood Canyon. Horner stayed glued to Danielson's rear wheel and waited until the end to pass.

SUNDAY, AUGUST 11, 2013 • THE BULLETIN
Junior Continued from D1 Before the young golfers walk onto the first tee of the Ridge Course today, most will have already played a boatload of tournament golf this year on the eight-tournament COJGA schedule. Thomas, a 71-year-old Sunr iver resident who is in h i s 14th season as tournament director for COJGA, has been on hand for it all and has a unique front-row view of Central Oregon's budding golf talents. I always want to know what Thomas has seen over the course of a summer. And apparently this year happened to be a good one. "This class as a whole, in my 14 years, would rank in the top five," Thomas concludes. Why the high praise? Start with the oldest kids in COJGA. Playing in the varsity boys division, where six different golfers won tournaments (all but one of those by a score under 80) and only B end's Declan Watts and Sisters' Nathan Pajutee won more than onetourney. Pajutee, a standout golfer at Sisters High School, scored the low round of the season with a I-under-par 71 at Broken Top Club in Bend. But it is the parity of the division that most impresses Thomas. "There is any one of eight guys who can shoot under par
on a good day," says Thomas, adding that in most years the varsity division is dominated by just one or two golfers. For the most part, the girls v arsity d i v ision h a s b e en dominated by the best of the local high schools, including Bend High's Madeline Rice, Summit's Alyssa Kerry and Trinity L u t heran's V i ctoria Sample. (Two-time Class 5A state champion Madison Odiorne, of Bend's Summit High, won the only tournament she
played.) But it was 12-year-old Olivia Loberg, of Bend, who made
the biggest splash. She was by far the youngest varsity division winner when she won a July tournament at Awbrey Glen with a 6-over 78. Loberg also notched three second-place finishes — including two narrow losses to Heidi Froelich, a recent Bend High graduate who is headed to Northern New Mexico University to play golf. "She's been playing varsity girls for two years, and she's not eligible for high school for two more years," Thomas says of Loberg with a laugh. "I mean, it's ridiculous." Roughly 60 of the 250 golfers in COJGA this year are boys and girls ages 14 or 15 (most of the girls play in the varsity division). And that deep group has plenty of talent, Thomas says. Among the boys, Bend's Jack Loberg, Cole Chrisman, Max McGee and brothers Ben and Eric Wasserman all won tournaments with scores lower than 80. "They are pretty powerful," Thomas assesses. "There is a lot of them and ... a lot of good
golfers coming up. "There are probably eight or 10 of those kids who I can think of who are going to be very, very good golfers." Olivia Loberg was not the only 12-year-old to impress. Redmond's Isaac Buerger won one event at Broken Top Club with a 3-over 75. Thomas also sees strength in this year's large group — 35 players — in the 9- to 11-yearolds division. Bend 9 - y e ar-old Sam Renner, for instance, posted the low round of the season in that division with a 4-over-par 40 (for nine holes) from the red tees in a June tournament at Meadow Lakes in Prineville. But that age group is deep, reminding Thomas of some of COJGA's best classes ever. "There are a whole bunch of them who have shot in the 40s this year," he says of this year's 9- to 11-year-olds. "And to match (the best groups), they will have to get into the 30s next year o r t h e y e ar after." What does it all mean'? By Thomas' estimation, the future for Central Oregon golf
is in good hands. "There are just so many k ids who can shoot a l o w score," Thomas says. "There is a lot of depth. It's going to be good for the high schools in the next three years." And seeing how that kind of talent develops is always fun to watch. — Reporter: 541-817-7888, zhall@bendbulletin.com.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. — They came to Kansas City to start over. Alex Smith, the quarterback who lost his job the way no quarterback thinks he should, and Andy Reid,the successful coach who experienced personal and professional loss, are now relying on each other for redemption. Smith and Reid are convinced they can revive each other's careers, here in the heartland with a team still recovering from its own tragedy: last year's murdersuicide involving Jovan Belcher. Seemingly every member of the Chiefs' organization is, in some way, hoping — and trying — to
begin anew. Smith and Reid know their tribulations last season are the reason they are together. And they know the success of the Chiefs is largely dependent on them. "We'd love to stick it to everybody who thought we couldn't do it, he and I included," Smith, 29, said in a recent interview. He added, "It's every person here."
Reid's tragedy Monday was the first anniversary of the death of Reid's 29-year-oldson, Garrett, from a heroin overdose in his dormitory room during the Philadelphia Eagles' training camp. In Reid's 14-year tenure with the Eagles, his son struggled with a drug addiction and spent some time in prison. In 2007, Reid took a 39-day leave of absence to be with Garrett for his drug rehabilitation. (Reid's other son, Britt, has also struggled with drugs in the past and is now a member of the Chiefs' coaching staff) Reid said there were times when he considered resigning from the Eagles, but his family urged him not to. The day after he buried his son, Reid tried to find solace by returning to the Eagles, though he called the experience painful. The team struggled throughout the season and finished 4-12. Reid was fired. "I don't know of a coach that went through a year like Andy went through in the total big picture," said Dick Vermeil, one of Reid's closest friends. "You lose
It was offense versus defense on Friday in what was labeled a "competition day" by Oregon, but aren't they all? "We compete every day," center Hroniss Grasu said, "that's how you get better." But on Friday,there was a scoring system set up to grade the two sides, with the defense winning,68-59,according to coach Mark Helfrich. "It was good," he said. "It came right down to the end, we had a last play to decide it and a lot of good competition overall. The offense won, but they had a celebration penalty, so the defense won." Grasu said the offense learned its lesson. "It was a teachable moment, and I'm sure we will see that at the team meeting tonight," he said. "Both sides of the ball played their butts off." Helfrich said he was most impressed by the defensive line. "I love our defensive line," he said. "I thought the defense kind of got the best of the offense. It was back and forth, exactly what you want: competitive balance, playmaking. We had a couple huge plays offensively that in real football would have been touchdowns. The defense bounced back and made a couple plays at the end to win it." In particular, Helfrich pointed out the efforts of defensive linemen Tony Washington, Ricky H avili-Heimuli, DeForest Buckner, and A r i k Armstead and safety Avery Patterson. "Ricky played really well, I think he finally feels 100 percent," Helfrich said. Quarterback Marcus Mariota had a couple of long runs and wide receiver Daryle Hawkins had a touchdown, but overall it was not a great day for the receivers. "Way too many dropped balls," Helfrich said. "I didn't think our sense of urgency was good enough today in t hat r egard, but t hen t hey bounced back and made a coupleplays in the end." It was the first day in pads for the players, but Helfrich said the Ducks ran only seven live
plays. Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith runs a play during practice earlier this month.

Smith was the No. I pick in the 2005 draft, but almost from the start of his tenure in San Francisco, his abilities were questioned. M ik e S i n gletary, when he was the team's coach, called Smith soft, and the quarterback struggled to settle into a rhythm as the team changed offensive coordinators seven times and the offensive line seemed to always be in a state of flux.

It was the last game he started for the 49ers. Colin Kaepernick, younger and more athletic, ignited the 49ers' off ense and eventually led t h e team to the Super Bowl, solidifying his position as San Francisco's starter. By mid-December, it became clear Smith's NFL future lay outside San Francisco. Reid, 55, thought highly of Smith going back to Smith's collegiate days at Utah. Reid was always impressed with Smith's intelligence and enjoyed watching how Smith improved whenever he watched him on film. Reid acknowledged that when he was with Philadelphia, he called the 49ers multiple times to inquire about trading for Smith.
focused on moving forward in their lives, and in their careers. "I think anybody that's played in this league long enough has a similar story," Smith said. "You don't play in this league very long before you start getting those scars. It just happens." No team is t r ying to r ehabilitate itself quite the way the Chiefsare.They are coming off a season in which they were 214, but they are still reeling from the tragedy involving Belcher. With Smith and Reid as the new faces of the franchise, there is hope from others in the organization that they can help lead the Chiefs past the p revious year's dark moments. Tight end Tony Moeaki is still dealing with the emotional fallout from last season — "I try not to go back and think of last year's experiences" — but he said the presence ofSmith and Reid had been refreshing. Moeaki took early note of how Reid went over every detail of every play from the day's practice in meetings with the offense, something Reid said he did not do last year with the Eagles. And although Smith is not big on speeches, Moeaki said he was a calm, personable leader in the huddle who was quick to offer advice.
A good match?
Smith said he was appreciative of how Reid pursued him, and he has put his faith in him. Reid has experience with rebuilding a quarterback's confidence. With the Eagles, he won games with Donovan McNabb, Michael Vick, Jeff Garcia and A.J. Feeley, all in slightly different offenses. "I've learned a t r emendous amount of football from him," Smith said. Smith should be a step up from Matt Cassel and Brady Quinn, who combined for eight touchdowns and 20 interceptions for the Chiefs last season.

The coach noted that Tyner and his classmates are in a new situation as they near the end of the first week of practice. "Those guys need to learn how to practice; that

Beavers'rough practice rilesRiley By Kevin Hampton Corvallis Gazette-Times
There were some strong words by Oregon State coach Mike Riley in his post-practice talk on Saturday afternoon. A few plays during practice had Riley riled up, including a tackle on a run play and a scramble on the turf by players going after a fumble. "It creates piles, piles create injuries," Riley said of the fumble play. "It's how to practice. We try to have a drill to recover a fumble instead of having 12 guys on our team all diving after the ball in practice." So Riley made it clear to the players that there's a smart way to practice. "There's a way to do this thing so that we can practice," he said. "They have to understand the tempo and then they have to play within that tempo."
Bumps and bruises The Beavers were a little thin in a few areas with a few players on the sideline due to a variety of ailments. Wide receiver has been hit. Kevin Cummings was still out with a hamstring injury and Micah Hatfield also tweaked his hamstring. Richard Mullaney was pulled out and hobbled about on a crutch for a while. "He looked like he had a hip pointer, which those are painful. A bruise on the point of the hip," Riley said. "He looked sore."
Double day Saturday was the first day of the fall camp the Beavers got in two practices. Riley said there's not much change with the early practice. "We're in full gear, we practiced (Saturday) morning like we do on a single day and then tonight we'll go in shells. "The nights are always situational, so a lot of third-down stuff. The next time we do a night practice it will be red zone."

The United States' Ashton Eaton competes in the shot put during the decathlon at the world championships in Moscow on Saturday.
Eaton Continued from D1 That mental struggle was evident again on Saturday. The shot put was one of Eaton's weaker events until he made dramatic improvement in the past two years. He struggled again with his form in the shot put on Saturday, but showed his maturity, managing to keep his cool and improve on each of his three attempts. His best mark of 47-2 tr'2 was respectable, though it was more than three feet short of his personal best. Still, he kept the lead.

Three areas need to be addressed:player development, recruiting/personnel and schemes.
Player development The rise of seven-on-seven football, a scaled down version of the game played by high schoolers during the offseason without linemen, full pads or tackling to the ground has coincided with improvements in the passing game.

ford became the second. While quarterbacks are working on their games yearround, defensive players are tackling less and less because of injury concerns. "The thing I really see in college football is the missed tackles," said Dunn, who was one of the most successful defensive coordinators in college football in the 1990s and early 2000s. "So many missed tackles." The missed tackles stand out more than ever before because offensesare forcing defenses todefend so much more of the field, stretching them out both vertically and horizontally. "You have to make a l ot more open-field tackles," said Brown, of the Smart Football
blog. Dunn said the answer is stressing the need to runto the ball. But defenders have so far to go, only teams with lineups loaded with elite athletes such as Alabama and LSU have the sheer speed and quickness to close the gaps. For those teams that can't pack a roster with blue chiptalent, there's a lot of one-on-one football being played, with the defenses at a disadvantage. "All the better athletes are going to play wide receiver in high school and they're not playing defense," Tuberville sa>d. Or they're playing quarterback. Back in the day, for the most part, there were running quarterbacks (think Nebraska great such as Turner Gill, Tommie Frazierand Eric Crouch) and t here w er e t h r owing quarterbacks. And the guys with the good arms who could run well (John Elway, Steve Young, Randall Cunningham) were more scramblers than ball carriers.

MOSCOW — Usain Bolt's pre-race antics were rather subdued. Very l i ttle emotion, not much enthusiasm — at least not by his usually fun-loving standards. His race was pretty hohum, too, just a quick burst out of the starting blocks before backing off and coasting across the finish line. Sure, the Jamaican easily won his opening heat of the 100 meters Saturday at the world championships. But the only thing dashing about Bolt on t hi s humid night was his tiger-striped uniform. The crowd really wasn't into the action, either, with a half-full audience giving Bolt & Co. a tepid applause at best. Olympic champion Mo Farah had them excited, though, with an applauseworthy performance as he pulled away from the field late to win the 10,000. Of course, there was some drama in Bolt's race, too, with the gun quickly soundi ng again soon after t h e runners flew off the line. A hush fell over the stadium as someone was about to be disqualified for jumping the

there are many ways to solve the same problems — or at least try to solve them. G raham said a bout f i v e years ago he felt the defenses were starting to f i gure out how to slow down the spreads, but then — with Oregon leading the way — teams started pushing the pace and defenses have been playing catch-up ever since. Defensive coaches c an't substitute players to m atch down and distance, and often can't even call plays. It's base defense andhope forthe best — and that's not working out too well. Coaches talk about redefining what it means to play good defense. Don't worry so much about yards between the 20s, but stiffen in the red
zone and cause turnovers. T he problem w it h t h a t i s turnovers are often as much about luck as they are skill. Not very reliable. It seems hopeless, but as much as it sounds like a cliche, the game is cyclical and at some point someone will figure out how to turn t h is around. Dunn has decided to take at least a couple years off from coaching to follow his son's high school career in Georgia. Maybe when he's ready to come back, he'll have the answer. For now, when asked the most important thing a defense needs these days, he concedes: " No. I t h i n g i s you're going to have to have a good offenseyourself."

touted as a new lifeline for Oregonians on the brink of foreclosure, the mediation program was supposed to give thousands of distressed homeowners a chance to sit with their lenders and potentially work out an alternative, like a loan modification or short sale. Instead, 325 mediation ses-

"We worked really hard during the legislative session to get (Senate Bill) 558 passed, and close the loophole," said Oregon Department of Justice spokesman Jeff Manning. The loophole was more like a chasm. See Program /E2

wners have applied for their licenses and started installing their brewing systems. And if all comes to fruition, Central Oregon will have six new breweries, bringing the region's total to about 25. "Almost every day I run into somebody that has something to do with the beer industry: bottles, labels, something," said Trever Hawman, owner of Bridge 99 Brewery, one of the proposed breweries. "It kind of blows my mind." From growler stations and festivals like Bend Brewfest, to a rising number of brewpubs, the Bend Ale Trail and even beer clubs to join, it seems residents and tourists can't get enough. But how many breweries is too many'? The Oregon Liquor Control Commission is reviewing applications for five production breweries — Oblivion Brewing Co.; North Rim Brewing; Bridge 99; Juniper Brewing Co. and Shade Tree Brewing, LLC — and a brewpub and brewery on
Northeast Division Street — River Bend Brewing. According to Bend Business Advocate Carolyn Eagan, the city has no cap on how manybreweries Bend can have. The city will continue to support the growth of the industry by providing the necessary infrastructure such as sewer collection systems and wastewater treatment facilities, she said. "The question 'Is there a bubble, is there a limit to how many breweries we can sustain here?,' assumes we are consuming all the beer here — which we are not," she said. "A lot of beer is also exported and it can continue to be exported. The appetite for good microbrews seems to be insatiable throughout the country." See Breweries /E5

Business groups say significant wage increases would require many of their members to lay off workers and pass on costs to the consumers. Some argue that doubling wages combined with the increasedemployer costs for the national Affordable Care Act could put their members out of business.

British Airways configures its seats so half of the passengers sit backward, to fit more seats into business class. The designer calls it the "yin-yang configuration."

In a confidential test lab in a remote office park near the Frankfurt airport, a small Lufthansa team holed up for five years, refining one of the German airline's most closely guarded secrets. They called it the V concept. Six-feet, six-inches long and almost two-feet wide, the V concept is the German carrier's latest weapon in the fierce competition among global airlines. It is designed to withstand shocks 16 times the force of gravity and comes with a cozy padded footrest. It is a new business-class seat, and if you are traveling round trip from Frankfurt, Germany, to New York, it can be yours for about $5,000. "Business class is where competition

Lenders i n i t iate n o n judicial f oreclosures by f i l in g a notice of default against a homeowner w it h t h e county clerk. B anks basically s i d e stepped the mediation program entirely. They shifted foreclosuresen masse into circuit courts across the state. Just 54 default notices were filed i n D e schutes C ounty between Jan. I and July 31. By contrast, 765 were filed in the same timespan last year. F oreclosure f i l ings i n Deschutes County Circuit Court have skyrocketed, meanwhile. The court received 786 case filings for foreclosure hearings between Jan. I and July 31 of this year. Through June 30 of last year, 190 were f iled. In 2010, at the height of the foreclosure crisis, lenders filed50 foreclosure cases in the court all year. State leaders are optimistic the new p rogram will reverse the trend. It gives homeowners more than 30 days in default, or facing a f i n ancial hardship, the right to request a face-to-face meeting with their lenders whether the lenderseeks to foreclose in court or out. Banks have to respond to the request within 10 days, or face fines from the state Attorney General's office.

Continued from E1 Billions are being spent on research and d e velopment, architects, industrial designers and even yacht designers to pack seats with engineering innovations and fancy features. Just fabricating a single business-class seat can cost up to $80,000; custom-made firstclass modelsrun $250,000 to
$500,000. Those who fly coach may have had a glimpse of these expenditures as they shuffled past the elaborate reclining, angled, semiprivate accommodations in b u siness and first class on their way to the

Six-feet, six-inches Iong and almost two-feet wide, the seat is designed to withstand shocks up to half of the revenue of air- 16 times the force of gravity. lines like Lufthansa or British
Airways, says Samuel Engel, a vice president at ICF SH8 E, an aviation consulting firm. Carriers vying for the attention ofthese passengers, who have money or corporate accounts that pay for their travel, are counting on good design to escape the grinding commodity nature of their business. But there is only so much s pace inside a p l a ne. A s the more lucrative seats expand, the coach section often contracts, with m or e seats jammed into the same cabin space andmore discomfort for coach passengers. "The seat is one of the few elements that an airline can actually make its own," said Patricia Bastard, an architect and designer who has worked with Air France on its firstclass cabin. "There are very few elements like it inside an airplane. There's customer service, of course. Maybe there's a bar. But seats are unique to the airline. Seats are critical." Lufthansa, Europe's largest airline and the world's fourth largest in terms of passengers, is investing $4 billion to improve its cabins, offer satellitebased Internet and upgrade its onboard entertainment system. But the new b u siness-class seat, which first appeared last year on the company's new Boeing 747-8 planes, is perhaps the boldest attempt to lure the high-value passenger. The seat research,design, manufacture and installation accounts for roughly a third of that $4 billion investment, says Bosler— more than a billion dollars. Eleven

Etihad Airways has made aisle access a selling point. planes are now outfitted with the new seats, and Lufthansa is expected to install about 7,000 of them on 100 wide-body airplanes by 2015. Lufthansa's task — like that of all the big airlines — was to create a special environment for those big-spending travelers within the inflexible boundariesofan aircraftfuselage. "The challenge was finding a solution that provides all customer benefits but also tries to save as much space as possible
Until about five years ago, the norm was for business seats to provide a lie-flat surface at an angle, what was called a "faux flat," said Mark Hiller, chief executive of Recaro Aircraft Seating, based in Germany, one of three large seat manufacturers. But frequent fliers complained that they slid down their seats during the flight. Now airlines are increasingly trying to fit fully flat beds for business class. But flat seats require more space, which and get as many passengers typically means losing about on board as possible," Bosler 10 percent of the business-class said. "There's only one way for seats.

ing 777s by fitting the broader part of passengers' anatomy (their shoulders) with the narrowest part of their neighbors' (their feet). "By far," he said, "it's the most space-efficient configuration." The downside, obviously, is a basic disruption in the traditional seating arrangement aboard a plane. Travelers face each other, risking awkward eye contact. Cooke says passengers have become used to this quirk — they accept it on trains — and don't mind flying backward. Other formations include a design known as the herringbone, which is used by Virgin Atlantic. Seats are staggered diagonally, allowing t i ghter spacing between the seats. But
itmeans sleeping passengers' feet stick out in the aisles. The latest trend is higherdensity seating, now used on Emirates, Swiss and Delta, with slightly shorter beds and narrower seats. The trick here is that when a seat opens up into a bed, it slides under the armrest of the passenger in front. "It's a very demanding environment," said James Park, a designer based in London who has worked with Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific. "A business-class seat has to be a working desk, an entertainment center, a dining facility, and it's also a bed. It also needs to be comfortable in all those configurations." Few of these innovations have occurred on American carriers, which h ave b een
locked in a scramble for survival over the l ast decade. Their business model has a mounted t o j a m m in g a s many people as possible on planes with little money to spare on new designs. B ut that i s s t a r ting t o change. Delta, United Airlines and American Airlines have all outlined large investments to install new business-class seats, for international flights a nd t r a nscontinental l e g s — from New York to Los Angeles or San Francisco. "Only a few years ago, all domesticcarriers were chasing the commoditization of the business," said Glen Hauenstein, Delta Air Lines' executive vice president for network planning, revenue management and marketing. "That didn't work. It was a spiral to the bottom." Delta, for instance, plans to overhaul its entire longrange fleet by next summer, rolling out a new businessclass seat on i n ternational flights. The company does not have a first-class cabin, focusinginstead on business and coach. "We cater to corporate clients," Hauenstein said. "That's our sweet spot. And few have first-class policies. American corporations ar e c o st-conscious. We're a lot more socialistic than we think. And we don't have a lot of oil sheiks or Russian billionaires."
Paying for privilege P assengers still pick a i r lines based on the availability of flights and schedule, says Lange, of Airbus, a former vice president for marketing there. "But the cabin product is now right behind that." This is especially true when it comes to business-class clients. "The business case for airlines to renew their business class," he said, "is driven by their calculus to gain market share." Generally speaking, a firstclassseat takes up the space of six to eight coach seats and a business-class seat takes up about four coach seats. The same is roughly true for ticket prices: First class is generally more than twice the price of business; business class is usually four times the price of coach. Hauenstein, of D elta, explains that even with fewer seats in its business-class cabin, an airline can make more money. On its Boeing 747-400s, for instance, Delta went from about 65 cradlelike business seats to 48 flat-bed seats. Yet while the total count dropped, Hauenstein says the switch to better seats increased the profitability of its fleet. The reason lies in a dark science perfected by airlines years ago, known as revenue

Wage Continued from E1 On Wednesday and Thursday, demonstrations were held in Chicago, New York City, Detroit and Milwaukee as part of a nationwide movement of organized events. In Chicago, many who protested earn an hourly wage around Illinois' minimum o f $ 8 .25, w h ich would translate into an annual salary of about $17,000. A raise to $15 per hour would mean a salary of $31,200. T he w o rkers' p u s h f o r higher wages comes as the nation has yet to create all the jobs lost during the recession. There are nearly 12 million people unemployed still looking for a job. Economists say many thousands more have
given up hope. The high unemployment seen in the aftermath of the G reat R ecession i s hu r t ing wages across the board, said Heidi Shierholz, a labor economist with the Economic Policy Institute, a labor-orie nted think t an k b ased i n Washington. "There is a very tight link between high unemployment and low-wage growth. It's just
Minimumwagededate The minimum wage, apolicy designed by the New Deal administration in the1930s, peaked in the late 1960s at $9.22 when adjusted for infla-

labor history at Lebanon Valley
College in Pennsylvania. Conventional wisdom in eco-
nomic circles hasbeenthat raising the minimumwagecosts jobs. That's becausewhenyou raise the price ofsomething, generally demanddecreases. For example, pricey labor might
accelerate employers' search for alternatives, such asadding more machinery to replace people or outsourcing jobs to foreign countries. But some recent academic research seems to suggest raising the minimumwage might not be the Iob-killer it's made out to be.
In real-world analysis, a rise in the minimum wage seems to
have nonegative effect on lowwage employment. Onestudy even found that higher wages

In theory, wage growth is tied to productivity, but globalization, politics and economic policy broke that relationship in the 1970s, Shierholz said. If the trend had continued, she added, the federal minimum wage today would be closer to $18 per hour i nstead of $7.25. That doesn't mean that the economy could handle doubling the minimum wage overnight, but it could start increasing slowly, she said.

Lorraine Chavez, a spokeswoman for the Workers Organizing Committee union, said the goal is not to double wages over night. Workers also want better working conditions and full-time employment. And the union is prepared to continue to strike and plan other events until they reach all those goals. "Workers have no choice," Chavez said, adding that at $8.25 per hour many workers

Designed to be taken without water,the UrgentRx versions have been selling well enough that the company expects revenue thisyear ofmore than $3 million. Based in Denver, with 10 employees, the company has attracted more than $7 million in financing from investors like Sam Zell and Herb Simon, real estate moguls; David Bonderman, a private equity billionaire; and Hilary Swank, the actress. But what really seems to have propelled the company's early success are the inroads Eisenberg has made with major retailers. In the three years since the company's debut, he has placed UrgentRx products near thecheckout counter at 2,700 retail outlets across the country, including those of Duane Reade, Wal-Mart and Kroger. Recent a greements and continuing negotiations, he estimates, should put the productsin 27,000 storesby the end of the year.

Cyclingcashbackto shareholders Companies are sitting on a record amount of cash, and many are funneling it to their shareholders through dividends and stock buybacks. It would be easy to assume that the most generous ones are the traditional stalwarts of the market: utilities, telecoms and other stocks known as defensive investments that tend to offer a more stable ride. But it's actually the riskier companies, known as cyclicals, according to a review by JPMorgan. Cyclical companies include raw-material producers and others whose profits rise and fall in sync with the economy. They have returned $426 billion in cash to shareholders over the last12 months, more than the $242 billion that defensives have returned. This screen shows cyclical stocks that JPMorgan says have the capability to expand their cash returns to shareholders.

Wh en repairing tire,a quick fix doesn't pay
By Larry Printz The Virginian-Pilot
The past few years have seen Kia slowly climbing out of the bargain basement. Its chic styling has endeared it to buyers who never previously considered buying a Kia. Yet in some ways, the company is the same one that it's always been, producing cars that are a good

the tire, and he thought this wasn't a good thing. How else should it be fixed? I want to be sure the tire remains safe and doesn't lose air. — Susan Turner . Good question, Susan. . Tire repair is serious business, and a large percentage of tire repairs made aren't up to industry standards. As a general rule, a tire may be repaired if it has legally adequate tread remaining; i f t h ere's no structural damage from the puncturing object or from the tire being operated while u nderinflated; and i f t h e puncture is located between the outer two tread grooves and is less than a quarterinch in diameter. Repairs to a tire's shoulder or sidewall are off-limits, as this area is subjected to constant flexing, which may cause the repair to fail. Proper tire repair consists of t h ree i mportant steps: The tire should be removed from the wheel for inspection of the casing, the puncture is filled, and the tire's inner liner patched. Outside-in repairs, such as a non-vulcanizing string plug, should not be considered a p e r manent fix, as an internal inspec-
This explains the r edesigned 2014 Kia Forte EX sedan. Its new look fits in better with the rest of the Kia product line, appearing both modern and sophisticated. The car's proportions are pleasing and are shared with its corporate cousin, the Hyundai Elantra, with which it shares some key components as well. So you won't be surprised to find that, like the Elantra, the Forte has an impressively spacious cabin, considering its compact footprint. Headand legroom are more than sufficient in either row. And the trunk easily swallows a week's worth of items from the local warehouse club. Overall interior ambiance is appropriate for a car with a starting price of $15,900. Plasticsare best described as durable, although seat comfort is a cut above the quality of the interior trim. While the Forte never felt like a luxury car, it certainly had options that would make a premium buyer smile. The fully loaded sedan had leather seats, parking sensors, rearview camera, dual automatic climate control, power sunroof, integrated garage door openers, a h e ated steering wheel, and a complete info-
Car deals expected to heat up By Jerry Hirsch Los Angeles Times
Look for the deals on certain cars to heat up as automakers fight for best-
seller bragging rights. The car companies are expected to ramp up the discounts and i n centives during the second half of the yearfor some vehicles or entire brands if t h ey have a shot of being the top seller in a segment. Mercedes-Benz and BMW t y pically h ammer each other in N ovember and December as they compete to win the title of top luxury brand in America, said Jessica Caldwell, an analyst with car information company Edmunds. com. A utomakers a ls o a r e starting to offer discounts on 2013 model cars as they start the change to the next model year, she said. With five months to go, here's how some of the key competitions are looking. Mercedes-Benz narrowly leads BMW by a score of 165,598 luxury vehicles sold to 164,474 through the end of July, according to Edmunds.com. "It is a nyone's game," Caldwell said. Another close race is in compact sport-utility v e hicle sales where the Ford Escape at 178,979 leads Honda's CR-V with sales of 172,989. There is a razor-thin margin between what Edmunds labels "advanced-drive" or rechargeable vehicles. With sales of 11,703, the Nissan Leaf leads the Chevrolet's Volt's total of 11,643. In the "pony" car race, the Chevrolet Camaro at 50,281 has a thin lead over Ford's Mustang, 48,879. T here's unlikely to b e any change in two key segments of the auto industry. Ford's F-Series truck is well ahead of al l c ompetitors and is almost certain to retain the title of the best-selling vehicle in America.

Aerosol inflator and sealer products are a good companion to your b reak-down/emergency k i t , but should only be utilized as a limp-home method. When using an i n f lator/sealer, be sure it's nonflammable — a rusty older can may not be — and advise the person subsequently repairing the ti re that such a product was used.

More to the point, in order to identify the problem, it is important to record the DTC fault codes that triggered the check engine light. Without the specific fault codes, we can only guess at the issue. My A l l d at a a u t omotive database pulled up TSB 0916-5, dated August 2009, that addresses low performance/ turbo issues. It describes the possibility of "coking" in the t urbocharger. This can o ccur when oil that lubricates the turbo bearings bakes or "cokes" from r esidual heat after shutting down the engine. Over time these deposits can build up to the point of impeding the response of the variable vanes in the turbo, causing high or low exhaust pressure leading to u n deror overboost and inaccurate EGR function. It seems unlikely that the vanes have corroded in just 2,000 miles, but the coking deposits may well be causing the issue. Ask the Ford dealer three things — th e p recise DTC fault codes downloaded, whether cleaning the vanes in your turbo would help, and finally, will they pay part or all of the cost of replacing a 2,000-mile-old turbo? • I live in Florida by the • ocean and I t ook my 2007 Nissan 350Z to the dealership recently to have my oil changed.

What is so remarkable is that this story is, in the language of my business, an evergreen — a story so consistently true and so often repeated that it has a perpetual life. Years ago, former Maine Sen. George Mitchell conducted an investigation of performance drugs in baseball and came close to saying they were endemic. "Everybody in baseball — commissioners, club officials, the players association, players,— shares responsibility," Mitchell said. Why? Because it was in everyone's monetary interest to ignore reality. Years later, it is impossible to believe, given the extent of the recent allegations, that anything has mean-

ingfully changed. Fay Vincent, former commissioner of Major League baseball, offered a chilling warning this week in The Wall Street Journal.
"Sadly, college and even high-
schoolsports are infected by drugs that kids take to be competitive. " Another story this week in The New York Times described the ludicrously opulent, $68 million football operations center at the University of Oregon, paid for by Phil Knight and his wife. Nothing against the Knights, who have also been extremely generous to the academic side of the university. But what does it say about the state of collegiate sports that to be competitive, a football program requires a $68 million Taj Mahal so that the players can, in the words of The New York Times, enjoy "a barbershop with utensils from Milan. And a duck pond. And a locker room that can be accessed by biometric thumbprints. And chairs upholstered with the same material found in a Ferrari's interior. And walls covered in football leather." What does it say that at the same time, The Register Guard of Eugene reported that the university is facing hundreds of millions of dollars in deferred building maintenance. The very questionable rationale for this is that big league athletics — particularly football and men's basketball — make money. But according to multiple reports, very few collegiate athletic programs, including Oregon's, operate without additional university subsidies. According to USA Today, which based its report on data that universities provide the NCAA, "just 23 of 228 athletics departments at NCAA Division I public schools generated enough money on their own to cover their expenses in 2012. Of that group, 16 also received some type of subsidy — and 10 of those 16 athletics departments received more subsidy money in 2012 than they did in 2011." The most poignant story this week was an obituary of Dick Kazmaier, a Princeton All-American football player and, in 1951, the last Ivy League Heisman Trophy winner. He rejectedthe NFL, saying he had achieved all he wanted and then went onto a greatbusiness career. Time Magazine praised him, declaring Kazmaier was a "refreshing reminder, in the somewhat fetid atmosphere that has gathered around the pseudo amateurs of U.S. sports, that winning football is not the monopoly of huge hired hands taking snap courses at football foundries." The world of sports has certainly changed since Kazmaier's days. — John Costa is the editor-in-chief of The Bulletin. 541-383-0337costa@ bendbulletin.corn

Low scoresdon't diminish value of CommonCore harply lower scores on new standardized tests in New York schools have unleashed the latest howls of protest about Common Core standards. The standards have been adopted by most states — including Oregon — and are being implemented across the nation. They were instigated by the nation's governors, designed to establish nationwide goalsabout what knowledge and skills students need to prepare for college or employment. Because the standards are so new andaremore demanding than what has been in place in many of the nation's schools, it's hardly surprising that new tests are showing lower scores. These are necessary growing pains on the way to a far better system, one that allows comparison across much of the nation on an established set of standards. Testing in New York shows only 31 percent of students in third through eighth grade passed math and reading tests, compared with 2012 scores on the old tests in which 65 percent passed math and 55 percent passed English. New York's tests are among the first to be aligned with the new standards. Even weaker results in New York City prompted a most base kind of political opportunism, with
the mayor criticized for supposedly "cooking the books" on tests in previous years, according to The New York Times. Elsewhere, most states have aligned themselves with one of two groups designingtests. Oregon has decided to use the Smarter Balanced tests starting in the spring of 2015 to replace its existing Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills, known as OAKS. Many Oregon schools will participate in field tests this coming year in which students will take both the OAKS and the Smarter Balanced tests, according to Crystal Greene, spokeswoman for the Oregon Department of E ducation. That will allow the state to determine how passing grades on the two tests compare, easing the ability to compare student performance to past tests. That will help provide context if, as expected, fewer students pass the new tests when they are fully implemented in the following year. Allowing comparison across the states will give the public and educators newtools to evaluate and improve schools. The new higher standards will focus those efforts at coll ege and career readiness. Growing pains are inevitable, but the direction is positive.

M Nickel's Worth Never enough information Ranking the civil rights we enjoy is a subjective, perhaps futile exercise, but it's hard to argue that our right to free speech is not our most important. Yet, when a judge imposes agag order to protect a defendant's right to a fair trial and completely squelches this most precious right, you don't see people writing to The Bulletin ("Write to Wyden about National Security Agency," July 31) that the Constitution has
been abridged. Do we have a rightto privacy? Of course we do! But we also have a right to be protected from people plotting to do us harm. Thus, when the government gathers information that keeps us secure, we give up a portion of our right to privacy to help ensure the greater right to safety and security f ro m h a r m. The Constitution, like life, is a balance between competing interests. There's no shame in being an inexperienced civilian, thinking the government has gone way overboard in the amount of information it collects, and thus upsetting that balance, but I can report from 15 years in the intelligence community and 30 years before that in the military, as a user of that intelligence, the correct balance is that there is never enough information.
to the Zimmerman case that "I abhor the demeaning of their verdicts, especially when our president intimates with his sanctimonious drivel that the jury's verdict is somehow improper." McFarland must not have read Obama's statement released immediately after the verdict: "We are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken." In his speech on July 19, the president stated, "The judge conducted the trial in a p r ofessional manner. The prosecution and the defense made theirarguments. The juries were properly instructed that in a case such asthis reasonable doubt was relevant, and they rendered a verdict. And once the jury has spoken, that's how our system works." In no way does that imply the verdict was improper. What Obama did address, and to which I believe McFarland refers, is what it is like to grow up in America as a black man. Many Americans think racial discrimination is athing of the past and consider any discussion of racial experience as "divisive racial discrimination efforts." I suspect most of those people are white.
tire does reflect upon their character or reputation. No one argues that certain settings require specific outfits, such as sports, beaches, offices, courtrooms and rodeos, or when one is introduced to the president, the pope or a similar dignitary. But when it comes to being in the presence of the Lord in a sacred space, anything goes and no one dares say a world lest they be called judgmental or, worse, intolerant. Church outfits used to be called "Sunday best" for a reason. Yes, we are supposed to give our best to the Lord, and that includes our dress (need not be expensive) and appearance and attitude. Would I be surprised if during a heat wave that people in bathing suits showed up on Sundays? Not anymore!

Gov. Rick Snyder, the man who would reinvent Detroit DETROIThis city is the broken tooth in Michigan's smile. Nevertheless, the preternaturally optimistic governor, from whom never is heard a discouraging word, cheerfully describeshis recent foray with a crew cleaning up a park in a particularly, well, challenging neighborhood: The weeds, says Gov. Rick Snyder, were so tall you could not see the sidewalks or even the playground equipment. Concealed in the underbrush were some old tires. And a boat. And, he notes with an accountant's punctiliousness aboutpresenting a complete n record, they also found a body." Never mind. Now another block of an almost cadaverouscity has been reclaimed.
T
Snyder, who has called himself "one tough nerd," began life after the University of Michigan as an accountant and is tough enough to have strengthened the relevant law and then wielded it to put Detroit under
the governance of an emergency manager, an a p pointed autocrat. Detroit is the sixth Michigan city, together with three school districts, to have earned its loss of autonomy. Snyder is neither surprised nor dismayed by the Obama administration's prompt refusal to consider bailing out the city: "I had made it clear I wasn't going to ask them" for a bailout. He has largely forsworn attracting businesses to the city by offering tax credits, which he calls "the heroin
GEORGE WILL drip of government." He speaks not of "fixing" but of nreinventing" Detroit, by which he means a new "culture of how to behave and act." He correctly stresses the cultural prerequisites for prosperity. And for popular sovereignty. Detroit under the emergency manager is enduring a democracy deficitbecause self-government requires collective self-control — the restraint of appetites by realism about their costs. Detroit, however, has suffered not just economic
setbacks but a cultural collapse that precludes a rapid recovery. Despite some people's facile talk about nrebooting" Detroit, as though it is a balky gadget, this is a place where dangerous packs of feral dogs roam. No city can succeed without a large middle class, and in spite of cheery talk about a downtown sprinkling of nhipsters and artisans," a significant minority of Detroit's residents are functionally illiterate and only 12percent have college degrees. In Seattle, 56 percent do. Against a litany of woes, Snyder happily illustrates the city's revival by brandishing his shiny new wristwatch. It is a Shinola, manufactured here from Swiss parts by a startup that
also makes bicycles and other things. About the vacant land opened up as the population has contracted, Snyder says: "Hops." This is used to make beer,and microbreweries make, or at least accompany, urban gentrification. And those hundreds of millions of public funds for a new hockey arena? He gamely explains it as a "quality of life" magnet for the gentrifiers. With that, Snyder, who is up for reelection in 2014, shifts into Michigan chauvinism, as a governor should: With its lakes and "micro-climates," Michigan has, he says, the nation's second-most diverse climate, so just about anything can be grown, even Detroit. — GeorgeWill is a columnist for the Washington Post Writers Group.

The successors to Osama bin Laden apparently guessed that the Obama administration might not like America's antiterrorism policies any more than the terrorists themselves did. News that the FBI scrutinized and then apparently forgot about unhinged Islamists such as Tamerlan Tsarnaev and Major Nidal Malik H asan sent the wrong message toterrorists. Was the Obama administration more worried about hurting feelings than preventing further attacks? Other rivals and enemies are now fully aware of our new pill-bug mode in the Middle East — and are willing to bet that it might apply everywhere. Without worry over the U.S. reaction, Russia has given tentative asylum as a reward to Edward Snowden, who singlehandedly exposed — and sabotaged — a vast National Security
Agency spying network. Increasingly, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan seem to be ontheir own with a bullying China, unsure whether to bend or resist. Meanwhile, the new A merican pill bug curls up in hopes that the
mounting dangers will just go away. — Victor Davis Hanson is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.
The mncierge doctor will see you now By Alex Beam The Boston Globe
or many years, Dr. Edward Legare was my primary care physician. My wife chose him for me. "He served in the military; you'll like him." She was right. I liked the citation from the Army's T enth Mountain Division on h i s wall, and I liked his succinct dietary advice — "Eat less fat" — which I as-

siduously ignored. After some soul-searching, Legare decided to join a high-end "concierge"practice a few years ago, and asked his patients to pay an extra $1,500 for his services. I declined. His group practiceshunted me to another talented young internist, Dr. Eric Serrano. Then — poof! He's gone concierge, too. He wants $1,800 a year, he explains in a letter, "to ensure we have unhurried time together whenever you need me, and you continue to receive the individual attentionand services you deserve." I'm paying about$10,000 a year for a family health plan, and, like most Americans, I see my doctor about twice a year. Harvard Pilgrim Health Care can't keep decent doctors around for me to consult with'? What's going on here? Harvard Pilgrim didn't want to discuss this issue, but plenty of other people did. Legare and a colleague, Dr. Harold Solomon, praised the conciergedoctoring model because the extra income allowed them to get their patient load under control.
BC (before concierge) Legare was
responsible for 3,800 patients, "It was overwhelming," he said. "I was worried that I was starting to miss things. I was involved in only about half of my patients' major medical decisions." Both Solomon and Legare said they retained "scholarship" patients, people who they knew might not be

able to pony up the $1,500-$1,800 premium for theirservices. Then Solomon turned the tables on me: You have themoney, don't you, Mr. Beam? Why didn't you pay? Fair question. I just bought a new rowing shell, which would have paid for two years' worth of conciergecare.But the concept makes me sick. I entered the workforce just as Health Maintenance Organizationscame on the scene, and Inever had a problem with semi-collectivized health care. The system provided me with competent doctors and access to decent hospitals if I needed it. Why should I submit to this "concierge" shakedown when I'm already paying so much for health coverage? But enough about me. In truth, not all of America's great doctors are moving to the gated communitiesof concierge care. According to the most recent Medscape survey of over 21,000 doctors, "The percentage of physiciansin a concierge or cashonly practice increased very slightly from theprevious year,from 4 percent to 6 percent." More ominously, 15 percent of family physicians said they would no longer accept Medicare or Medicaid payments.
The American M edical A ssociation isn't overly concerned about concierge care, which it calls "retainer practices." They "are consistent with pluralism in the delivery and financing of health care," according to the AMA. "However, they also raise ethical concerns that warrant careful attention, particularly if retainer practicesbecome so widespread as to threaten access to care." "Right now it's a small trend," says James Burgess, a health care economist at Boston University. "Some people are worried about creating multiple classes of medicine in the U.S.," but he isn't one of them, for now. "It's going to take a while for the system to find its equilibrium," he says. Burgess and others think that retainer practices, sometimes called "direct primary care," may be part of the health care solution rather than the problem. The idea is this: You pay
for your primary care out of pocket, and pay insurance premiums to protect yourself from high-cost medical procedures and hospitalizations. Companies like Cambridge-based Iora Health Care and others already
offer reasonably priced ($50-$70 a month) primary care plans that allow doctors to keep their patient load
at manageable (Le. 600-700) levels. Insurance coverage would be reserved forthe big-ticket procedures delivered by, say, hospitals. "Your auto insurance doesn't cover new brakes, or basic maintenance," explains consultant Thomas Charland of M erchant Medicine, "and these direct payment plans work on that modeL You pay for primary care completely outside of insurance — it's concierge medicine for the masses." Meet the future, like it or not. — Alex Beam is a columnist for The Boston Globe.
If you think Europe is fine, take a look at Italy By Simon Johnson Bloomberg News
t has become fashionable not to worry about Europe and the euro area. This complacency has a serious flaw: Italy. Optimists argue that Europe is on the mend. The central bank is maintaining stimulus, Germany's export potential remains large, and France will continue to be a haven for investors. Struggling countries such as Greece and Portugalrepresent less than a 10th of the euro area's economic output and population. Enter Italy. It is the third-largest economy in the euro area,with a population of more than 60 million and gross domestic product of more than $2 trillion. The government's debt burden, at about 13 times GDP, is among the largest in the world. The problem is that Italy is growing far too slowly and has been doing so for a long time. During the 1990s, the country's economy expanded at an average annual inflation-adjusted rate of just 1.2 percent, compared with the euro area's 1.8 percent. From there, it only got worse: Italy's average growth rate since 2000 has been 0.4 percent,compared with 1.3 percent for the euro area.
t
Why such anemic growth'? It's not for lack of trying. Italy's investment rate is higher than Germany's. Infrastructure investment is in line with euro-area averages. Human capital, measured as the level of education, has improved steadily. Labor-market and product-market regulation have converged toward Germany's levels.Research and development spending, albeit low relative to European Union averages, has improved in recent years. The main obstacle to growth in Italy is the government itself. As Daniel Gros, a leading European economist, put it in 2011: "The only factors that have deteriorated absolutely and relative to the core of the Eurozone are indicatorsof governance — such as corruption and rule of law." Presumably, Italy's national averages mask important regional differences. If some parts of northern Italy are no different from Germany or Austria in terms of ease of doing business, then the situation in other parts of the country must be really bad. A recent report from the World Bank, for example, found that a municipal building permit takes six months to obtain in Palermo, compared with just one month in Milan.
Italy doesn't rank high in terms of entrepreneurial activity: According to the World Bank, the country has 1.63 newly registered corporations per 1,000 working-age people, far less than Britain's 10.41 but more than Germany's 1.35.The specific difficulty, though, seems to be the conditions that allow — or don't allow — small businesses to become
immigrants to renew the labor force. It is in this broader economic context that Italy's government debt becomes a threat. Even if interest rates stay low for a long time, just keeping the debt burden stable as a percentage of GDP will require impressive spending restraint. At any point, the market could lose faith in Italy's ability to handle its financial large. challenges. There is no definitive understandConsider, for example, the posing of what prevents businesses sibility of distress at one or more of from getting big, and no shortage Italy's banks, which are among the of possible explanations.

Handling leakers By Walter Plncus The Washington Post
an something positive come out of the concern over government intelligence operations, the leaks exposing them and the investigations of the leakers? Pfc. Bradley Manning is in custody awaiting sentencing, and Edward Snowden, a former contract worker at the National Security Agency, has been indicted but avoided arrest. Former State Department arms expert Stephen Kim, indicted for allegedly leaking secrets about North Korea to Fox correspondent James Rosen, is involved in pre-trial negotiations. And the FBI is still trying to identify the person or persons who gave information to the Associated Press about the CIA's clandestine operation that infiltrated al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula's bombing operations. Those who allegedly broke the law should be handled through the judicial system. But in the wake of these four incidents, perhaps it's time to pause and separate fact from fiction, and see how we can remedy a problem we have: Every leak of national security shouldn't require invoking the Espionage Act of 1917, which, at its extreme, calls for life imprisonment or the death penalty. We need a separate law. It would be used when the leaker's intent is not to harm the U.S. or aid a foreign nation or entity. Easier said than done. Remember, criminal laws are written as much to deter actions as they are to punish offenders. There already are other laws that can cover leakers. Snowden, for example, in addition to being charged under the Espionage Act, faces charges under a statute that punishes individuals for theft or conversion of government property for their own use or that of others. It does not necessarily involve disclosing classified information, and it carries the possibility of imprisonment for up to 10 years. Under the Espionage Act, the penalty could be death in wartime circumstances. Leakers,however, act with varied intentions, and the law should consider that. The leaker could be a whistleblower, for example, frustrated after trying within the system to expose wrongdoing or waste and then turns to the news media. But he or she also could be an individual with less noble motives: They simply disagree with an administration's policies and want to promote their own views with cherry-picked intelligence; they are temporarily angry at their job situation; or they just want to gain favor with the media. Another problem is how to determine whether the leaked information would harm national security. The last nearly successful legislative attempt to address leaks was in 2000, when Congress passed the Classified I nformation P r otection Act of 2001. It made it a crime for a government employee or others authorized to have access to classified information to "knowingly and willfully" disclose such information to someone known not to be authorized to receive it. It did not require that the government prove the disclosure damaged national security. The measure defined "classified information" as material "clearly marked or represented ... by appropriate authorities ... as requiring protection against unauthorized disclosure for reasons of national security." The major weakness in that measure was the universal agreement that the present U.S. system of classification is a failure. Too many people have the authority to classify documents and there is no penalty to the bureaucratwho overclassifiesone. Nonetheless, Congress went ahead and attached this legislation to the fiscal 2001 Intelligence Authorization Act that went to President Clinton. On Nov. 4, 2000, Clinton vetoed the bill, warning Congress about the difficulty for anyone seeking to legislate to cut off leaks. His reasoning rings true today. Clinton said his obligation as president was "to protect not only our government's vital information from improper disclosure, but also to protect the rights of citizens to receive the information necessaryfor democracy to work." He noted, as have others, "Furthering these two goals requires a careful balancing." In 1904, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, in his dissent in the Northern Securities case, wrote: "Greatcases,like hard cases,make bad law." But he went on to say they were deemed greatcases not because they shape future law, "but because of some accident of immediate overwhelming interest which appeals to the feelings and distorts the judgment." — Walter Pincus writes a column for The Washingon Post.

In 1979, the Ramones were recording at a studio in Los Angeles with the producer Phil Spector, whose work with the Ronettes, the Righteous Brothers and the Beatles had earned him a reputation as both a musical genius and an exacting, combustible egomaniac. He hadn'tproduced ahit since John Lennon's "Imagine" in 1971, and the Ramones, who had released four critically acclaimed albums of e x uberant punk rock, were still searching for a commercial breakthrough. The sessions for the resulting album, "End of the Century," were tumultuous, and the opening pages of the new book, "Gabba Gabba Hey!: The Graphic Story of the Ramones," written by Jim McCarthy and illustrated by Brian Williamson, details some of Spector'smore notorious moments: forcing the guitarist Johnny Ramone to play the opening chord to "Rock 'N' Roll High School" more than 70 times; pointing a gun at the bassist Dee Dee Ramone. "I wanted to open with a flashpoint," McCarthy said in a recent telephone interview from his home in Bexhill-onSea, England. "The Phil Spector thing was two worlds colliding in a culture clash." Neither McCarthy nor Williamson had access to images, video or audio recordings of the sessions other than those of the "End of the Century" album itself. They didn't conduct any i n t erviews; their m ain source material w a s previously published books and articles. Nonetheless, the gritty black-and-white illustrations, in a photo-realistic style, depict scenes from the studio in detail, and all four Ramones and Spector are quoted saying things they surely never did. "Obviously, you're putting words in people's mouths to a degree because who knows w hat was s aid," said M c Carthy, who has also written graphic biographies of Kurt Cobain, Eminem, the Sex P istols, Tupac Shakur a n d Michael Jackson, all for the Omnibus Press, a publisher in London.

cancer in 2001, Dee Dee of a heroin overdose in 2002, and Johnny of cancer in 2004. But according to McCarthy, their story appealed to him despite their deaths, not because of them. "The Ramones story seems bigger than them," he said. "It lends itself to graphic novel because there was a cartoon aspect to the Ramones. They looked like parodies of themselves." The book focuses on the forces that forged the Ramones, particularly the grim specter of New York City in the 1970s. Marky Ramone, a drummer in the band starting in 1978, has mixed feelings about the book. "It was a good attempt at showing the seedy underbelly of New York in the mid-'70s, but a lot of things were overblown," he said. "Phil Spector had guns on him but never pointed a gun at us in the studio. He did in his mansion, but not in the studio. Dee Dee was portrayed as just a junkie. He was the main songwriter. Joey wasn't just a freak. John was more than a right-wing fanatic. He could be fun, too. I understand negativity sells but they were trying to sell sensationalism to the extreme." D espite his l ist o f c o m plaints, Ramone, an avid comic book fan, said he'd rate "the visuals about a 7 out of 10, and the story a 6'/~." McCarthy a c k n owledged that it would be great if his subjects appreciated his books but said h e d oesn't worry much about theirresponses.

THE GRAPHICSTORT OF THE RAIRONES
Steve Forresti New York T>mes News Serwce
Writer Jim McCarthy, whose latest graphic biography tells the story of the Ramones, has authored similar biographies on the Sex Pistols, Michael Jackson and Kurt Cobain. for a realistic way of speaking. I think I'm a lover of the Ramones' music enough to know roughly how t hey w ould've spoken to each other." Barnaby Legg, who wrote "Godspeed," about Cobain, the Nirvana frontman, with McCarthy, described it as "part biography, part dreamscape." "You don't come to a graphic novel expecting something
purely biographical," Legg said. "You're expecting something more imaginative and impressionistic." Music and comics share a long, intertwined history. Elvis Presley and the Beatles were frequent fodder for illustrators beginning in the 1950s and 1960s, and since the late 1970s, few major stars have avoided being written about in a comic or longer graphic novel. "Comics have always been a kind of disposable medium in which people find transcendent experiences," Legg said. "Pop music can be compared to that. You're talking about a medium that's essentially trashy by nature. The pop art quality of graphic novels is a wonderful analogue for the bright, vibrant, instant lan-

guage of music." Rock 'N Roll Comics, a series of proudly unauthorized, frequently salacious comics about artists including Guns N' Roses, Led Zeppelin, Vanilla Ice and New Kids on the Block, that ran from 1989 to 1994, exemplified this aesthetic, as well as the tensions between artistic license and responsibility to the facts. Rock 'N Roll Comics' most popular titles sold close to 200,000 copies, and Jay Allen Sanford, the series' head w riter, estimates the serieshas sold 3 million to 4 million copies, but the comics were sometimes loathed by their subjects, a few of whom filed lawsuits to try to make them disappear. The comics' publisher, Todd Loren,cast himself as a brash free-speech advocate, and was vindicated when a U.S. District Court judge ruled in 1990 that the First Amendment trumped New Kids on the Block's trademark infringement claim. Despite the series' reputation for sensationalism, Sanford said most of the writers and illustrators wereextremely conscientious and did copious research that included conducting original interviews.
"Part of why we tried to be so accurate was a legal consideration, but it also made the comics more interesting," Sanford said. "Truth is always stranger than fiction." From the standpoint of the law, graphic biographies aren't treated differently from other nonfiction work, but on occasion, the format's creative freedom also threatens to run afoul of the very people it aims to engage: fans. As one customer wrote of "Godspeed" in the reviews section of the book's Amazon page under the headline, "Kurt is rolling in his grave": "Never before have I seen such a ham-fisted, inept and downright exploitive depiction of one man's life — in ANY medium." To be fair, most of the reviews for "Godspeed" were positive, but parts of the book — notably the vivid, noirish drawings of Cobain's 1994 suicide by Steve Beaumont, the English graphic artist who works under the moniker Flameboy — proved controversial. "I got some death threats," Beaumont said. "I couldn't takethem seriously.They were coming from American fans, so I didn't think they'd come all the way to the U.K. to kill me." McCarthyworkedas anartist on the British sci-fi comic series 2000 A.D. from 1977 through 1996. He turned to writing in 2003 for "Godspeed," the firstof his graphic biographies. It sold roughly 35,000 copies, McCarthy said, and paved the way for the books he has written since, the most successful of which have topped out at sales of about 15,000. The roller coaster ride of rock stardom has been fertile ground, and McCarthy seems especially drawn to stories that don't end well.

Schuster,433 pgs., $28) By Janet Maslin New York Times News Service
Boris K a chka's "Hothouse" is a big wet kiss to the publishinghouse Farrar, Straus 8 Giroux. It does its mightiest to find a Platonic ideal in the very way that Farrar, Straus authors, editors and books put words to paper. Surely this is a house with a longer, grander history and greater commitment to serious literature than some other publishers can claim, but is there no such thing as overkill? It once put out an edition of Courtney Love's diaries that, Kachka writes, were "meant to b e p u rchased by Lord k n ows w h om." The same must be said of "Hothouse," thanks to its fanzinebreathlessness and tireless fawning. Here are the sorts of t hings that K a chka h as to say or quote about the dynamic f o u n der-owner Roger Straus Jr., the legitimately larger-than-life publishing legend: that he was a child so witty he would bet "heads I win, tails you lose" on the flip of a coin; that one of his "Rogerisms" was saying "extr-awdinary", that one highly visible "Roger author," Tom Wolfe, saw him as a peer when it came to "brio, style and ego"; that Straus was "the most Euro-
The single most pretzel-twisted story in "Hothouse" is that of how the publisher went nuclear over the choice of "The Corrections" for Oprah Winfrey's book club. Its author felt understandably sandbagged when he was abruptly put on the phone to hear the news from Winfrey herself. He was not moved to tears ofjoy. "My publisher's gonna be really happy," was his best version of a happy outburst. Complications ensued. pean of American publishers," with "a meld of Guggenheimheir hauteur and John Wayne brashness." And that nobody could wear gangster pinstripes with an ascot quite the way he dld.
The menbehind the house Straus was indeed a Guggenheim on his mother's side. ("Next to the Strausses, the Guggenheims were arrivistes," points out Kachka, who seldom misses the chance to spot a status signifier) And the Guggenheim family business that Straus went into as a young man was smelting. So there is a solid, if not exciting, story in the way this future publishing king made his way through the World War II Navy and then the literary world, lending his marquee name to several partnerships along the way. Robert Giroux, who functioned primarily as top editor to Straus'publisher(John Chipman Farrar, the third name on the binding, is in the book only briefly) may have been the team member who connected better with T.S. Eliot, Robert Lowell, Jean Stafford, Flannery O'Connor and John Berryman. But Kachka makes the less-flattering point that Giroux was known for the turkey
and Jell-0 lunches he enjoyed at his desk. Straus was known for keeping bathrobes at the homes of p u blishing-houseconnected women he might be meeting for not-so-secret nooners. By the '70s, Kachka says, Straus was getting away "with things he might have been arrested for today." What was it about him that so transfixed Susan Sontag, one of the house's most illustrious authors'? "Hothouse" conveys what their closeness was like, wondering whether they merely went to parties in matching leather or were involved in something more. "You're the only person in the world who can call me 'Baby' and get away with it," the book has Sontag telling Straus. Note to those wondering what's gone wrong with publishing: Is there so little book lore left to think about that "the question of whether or not they were ever an actual couple still divides industry gossips today"? Kachka lets his book's narrow focus and hero worship obscure any thoughtful view of what has kept Farrar, Straus afloat and how it differs from other publishing companies. It's just special, that's alL "Hothouse" repeatedlyemphasizes the house's attentionto Europe-
an literature without mentioning other, smaller publishers (Iike Europa Editions) that are devoted to doing the same. It invidiously compares Simon & Schuster, the publisher of "Hothouse," to Farrar, Straus & Giroux for its conglomerate thinking and general philistinism. It admires those lowball offers to important authors, even though this is a way to lose talent to publishers willing to pay more. When it boasts about the Nobel Prize count, "Hothouse" sounds like a movie studio in the throes of Oscar fever. K achka's account of t h e company's early years is larded with scrapable details, like the manager of supplies' excessive purchases of envelopes and toilet paper. Accounts of Straus' daily presence in the office are even worse: "He'd pick up the latest news from sales, marketing and publicity, hit the bathroom, and, on the return trip, pass that news along to others and resolve nagging issues." But Kachka must raise the ante and resort to full-out cheerleading when describing the h ouse's current incarnation, with Jonathan Galassi in charge ("If Jonathan Galassi didn't exist, FSG would have had to invent him"), and Jonathan Franzen
and Jeffrey Eugenides as top writing talent. Really, it seems better not to remember that the company promotedEugenides' "Marriage Plot" with a Times Square billboard featuring the headline "Swoonworthy" to accompany his picture. The single most p retzeltwisted story in " H othouse" is that of how Farrar, Straus went nuclear over the choice of "The Corrections" for Oprah Winfrey's book club. Its author, Franzen, felt understand-
ably sandbagged when he was abruptly put on the phone to hear the news from Winfrey herself. He was not moved to tears of joy. "My publisher's gonna be really happy," was his best version of a happy outburst. Complications ensued. When Winfrey took such great offense at his lack of enthusiasm that the company urged Franzen to apologize, he
wound up calling her "someone who's a hero — not a hero of mine per se, but a hero in general." From there, matters got worse. But Franzen's recalcitrance is not hard to understand, and Kachka needn't have jumped through hoops on his behalf. The really great news, "Hothouse" insists on saying, is that sales of "The Corrections"
jumped by around 150,000 copies because of the brouhaha. And that Winfrey put her book club on hiatus. And that when she was ready to reinstate it, the club's sole pick for 2006 was "Night," by Elie Wiesel, which was published by Hill 5 Wang. In his astounding wisdom, Straus had the foresight to buy Hill R Wang in 1971.

Admissions Continued from F1 An applicant scoring a 4 or 5 was probably going to be disappointed; a 3 m i g ht be deferred to a January entry; students with a I, 2 or 2.5 went to the top of the pile, but that didn't mean they were in. Berkeley might accept 21 percent of freshman applicants overall but only 12 percent in
engineering. My job was to help sort the
pool. We were to a ssess each piece of information — grades, courses, standardized t e st scores, activities, leadership potential and character — in an additive fashion, looking for ways to advance the student to the next level, as opposed to counting any factor as a negative. External readers are only the first read. Every one of our applications was scored by an experienced lead reader before being passed on to an inner committee of admissions officersfor the selection phase. My new position required two days of intensive training at the Berkeley Alumni House as well as eight three-hour norming sessions. There, we practiced ranking under the supervision of lead readers and admissionsofficers to ensure our decisions conformed to the criteria outlined by the admissions office, with the intent of giving applicants as close to equal treatment as possible. The p r o cess, h o w ever, turned out very differently.
A bigger 'subjective' picture In principle, a broader examination of candidates is a great idea; some might say it is an ethical imperative to look at the "bigger picture" of an applicant's life, as our mission was described. Considering the bigger picture has aided Berkeley'spursuit of diversity after Proposition 209, which in 1996 amended C alifornia's constitution t o prohibit consideration of race, ethnicity or gender in admissions to public institutions. In Fisher v. the University of Texas, the Supreme Court, too, endorsed r ace-neutral processes aimed at promoting educational diversity and, on throwing the case back to lower courts, challenged public institutions to justify race as a factor in the holistic process. In practice, holistic admissions raises many questions about who gets selected, how and why. I could see the fundamental unevenness in this process both in the norming Webinars a nd when alone in a d a r k room at home with my Berkeley-issued netbook, reading assigned applications away from enormously curious family members. First and foremost, the process is confusingly subjective, despite all the objective criteria I was trained to examine. In norming sessions, I remember how l ea d r eaders would raise a candidate's rank-
ing because he or she "helped build the class." I never quite grasped how to build a class of freshmen from Californiathe priority, it was explained in the first day's pep talk — while seeming to prize the high-paying, out-of-state students who are so attractive during times
of a growing budget gap. (A special team handled international applications.) In one n o rming session, puzzled readers questioned why a student who resembled a throng of applicants and had only a 3.5 GPA should rank so highly. Could it be because he was a n o nresident and had wealthy parents'? (He had taken one of the expensive volunteer trips to Africa that we were told should not impress
us.) Income, an optional item on the application, would appear on the very first screen we saw, along with applicant name, address and family information. We also saw the high school's state performance ranking. All this can be revealing. Admissions officials were careful not to mention gender, ethnicity and race during our training sessions. Norming examples were our guide. Privately, I asked an officer point-blank: "What are we doing about race'?" She nodded s y mpathetically at m y c o n fusion but warned that it would be illegal to consider: We're looking at — again, that phrase — the "bigger picture" of the applicant's life.
