The Titanic, which sank 100 years ago today, lies 12,600 feet underwater.

The Titanic’s sinking left a graveyard — or did it?

By William J. Broad New York Times News Service

The centennial of the Titanic’s sinking, when more than 1,500 perished, has spawned much interest: books, articles, museum exhibits, memorial services, ocean cruises, films, even the 3-D version of the 1997 Oscar-sweeping movie. It has also brought to light new evidence — was the moon, with its tidal forces, partly responsible? — and now new concern for the dead. U.S. officials, who have long struggled to assert protective authority over the resting place of the Titanic, say the site may harbor many undiscovered corpses and thus should be accorded the respect of a graveyard and shielded from looters and artifact hunters. “There are people inside,” said James Delgado, director of maritime heritage at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which monitors the wreck. That bold assertion, however, has divided the experts. See Titanic / A5

A preview of a planet overcrowded By Elisabeth Rosenthal New York Times News Service

LAGOS, Nigeria — In a quarter-century, at the rate Nigeria is growing, 300 million people — a population about as big as that of the presentday United States — will live in a country the size of Arizona and New Mexico. Last October, the United Nations announced the global population had breached 7 billion and would expand rapidly for decades, taxing natural resources if countries cannot better manage the growth. But nearly all of the increase is here in sub-Saharan Africa, where the rise in population far outstrips economic expansion. Of the roughly 20 countries where women average more than five children, almost all are in the region. See Population / A8

Local defense attorney Valerie Wright has used evidence gathered during a state police investigation of her husband, Deschutes County District Attorney Patrick Flaherty, to file a bar complaint against a trio of lawyers involved in last year’s grand jury investigation of Mark Pilliod, the county’s top civil lawyer, and its aftermath. Flaherty convened the grand jury following Pilliod’s release of job applications submitted by some of Flaherty’s new hires. Pilliod failed to redact personal information, such as home addresses, from the applications before releasing them to The Bulletin in response to a public records request. Wright’s bar complaint, filed March 21, accuses Pilliod of telling a “blatant lie” by claiming that the county’s information technology director, Joe Sadony, did not seek legal advice before he provided a large amount of internal emails and other electronic data to the grand jury. Wright also alleges that two private attorneys working for the county, Dave Frohnmayer and William Gary, acted with “reckless disregard for the truth” or “intentionally misrepresented the truth” in a letter to the Oregon State Bar regarding the incident. Frohnmayer is a former Oregon attorney general and University of Oregon president. Wright, Flaherty and Pilliod did not respond to calls for comment. Gary and Frohnmayer called Wright’s complaint an abuse of the state bar process. See Complaint / A6

WASHINGTON — canal that diverts water from the Deschutes River to Madras has dozens of sites that could produce thousands of megawatthours of hydroelectric power every year, according to a report released last week by the U.S. Department of the Interior. The report identifies 49 locations along the canal where the North Unit Irrigation District could generate power, some of them capable of producing as much as 6,300 megawatt-hours annually. The report is meant to draw attention to sites under the authority of the Bureau of Reclamation that could be developed for hydroelectric projects. “I think it’s very aggressive for a federal agency to do that in a positive sense, because it’s trying to bring the market to the opportunity in an area that a lot of people have overlooked,” said Steve Johnson, district manager for the neighboring Central Oregon Irrigation District. In recent years, this district has installed two hydroelectric facilities, including the $24 million, five megawatt facility at Juniper Ridge. Harnessing the power in irrigation canals is an effective energy solution because it doesn’t require building more infrastructure, like a big dam, and it doesn’t have environmental consequences because the canals are already screened to keep fish out, he said.

At the heart of Valerie Wright’s bar complaint are two interviews of Deschutes County information technology director Joe Sadony, conducted during a state investigation of potential misconduct by District Attorney Patrick Flaherty. That investigation was prompted by Deschutes County Sheriff Larry Blanton, who asked the Oregon Department of Justice to investigate after county attorneys told him Flaherty may have behaved threateningly toward an investigator in his office.

n the birthplace of the Titanic, residents gathered for a choral requiem. In the North Atlantic, above the ship’s final resting place, passengers will pray as a band strikes up a hymn and three floral wreaths are cast onto the waves. Events around the globe are marking a tragedy that retains a titanic grip on the world’s imagination — an icon of Edwardian luxury that became, in a few dark hours in 1912, an enduring emblem of tragedy. Helen Edwards, one of 1,309 passengers on memorial cruise aboard the liner Balmoral who have spent the past week steeped in the Titanic’s history and symbolism, said Saturday the story’s continuing appeal was due to its strong mixture of romance and tragedy, history and fate. “(There are) all the factors that came together for the ship to be right there, then, to hit that iceberg. All the stories of the passengers who ended up on the ship,” said Edwards, a 62-year-old retiree from Silver Spring, Maryland. “It’s just a microcosm of social history, personal histories, nautical histories. “Romance is an appropriate word, right up until the time of the tragedy — the band playing, the clothes. And then there’s the tragedy.” Aboard the Balmoral, a cruise ship taking history buffs and descendants of Titanic victims on the route of the doomed voyage, passengers and crew are holding two ceremonies at the site of the disaster, 400 miles off the coast of Newfoundland — one Saturday at the time when the ship hit the iceberg, the other this morning at the moment it sank. Passengers aboard the cruise, which left Southampton, England, on April 8, have enjoyed lectures on Titanic history, as well as the usual cruiseship recreations of bridge, shuffleboard and lounging in a hot tub. Many have dressed in period costume for elaborate balls and a formal dinner recreating the last meal served aboard the ship. Some of the passengers have a direct link to the ship, through an ancestor who was onboard. Most feel some sort of connection to an event whose ripples have resonated for a century. Edwards said the lives of her grandparents, who married in 1911, were influenced by the disaster even though they lived far away in Montana. “They had talked about going back to Sweden to see his parents, and they didn’t because of the Titanic,” she said. Another cruise ship, Journey, left New York on Tuesday and will join Balmoral at the site. In Belfast, Northern Ireland, where the Titanic was built — the pride of the Harland & Wolff shipyard — thousands attended a choral requiem at the Anglican St. Anne’s Cathedral or a nationally televised concert at the city’s Waterfront Hall on Saturday. The city spent decades scarred by its link to the disaster but has come to take pride in the feats of engineering and industry involved in building the Titanic. The most famous maritime disaster in history was being marked even in places without direct links to it. Venues in Las Vegas, San Diego, Houston and Singapore are hosting Titanic exhibitions that include artifacts recovered from the wreck. Among the items: bottles of perfume, porcelain dishes, and a 17-foot piece of hull. And, of course, the centenary of the disaster has passed with a global outpouring of commerce along with commemoration. Events have ranged from the opening of a glossy new tourist attraction telling the ship’s story in Belfast to a 3-D re-release of James Cameron’s 1997 romantic weepie “Titanic,” which awakened a new generation’s interest in the disaster. — The Associated Press

STRUCK: April 14, 1912 11:40 p.m.

Substandard rivets in bow Later analysis showed the quality of the rivets holding hull plating together in the bow and stern was low; they were iron, with a high content of slag, which becomes brittle when very cold.

(ship’s time) Ship steaming too fast Although warned repeatedly in telegraph messages from other ships about pack and berg ice in the area, the Titanic steamed forward at just less than her top speed.

SANK: April 15, 1912, 2:20 a.m. (ship’s time)

Lack of binoculars Because of confusion in Southampton, some lookouts didn’t have binoculars, although many experts doubt the quality of the optics of the time would have helped.

Two hours and 40 minutes after striking the iceberg, the huge ship sank in 12,451 feet of water. A total of 1,514 people died. Only 710 survived.

Watertight bulkheads were not sealed at the top Fifteen bulkheads running the width of Titanic divided its interior into 16 compartments, but although they extended well above water line, they were not sealed at the top. Steel rivets used

Iron rivets used

Ice warnings disregarded On the night of April 14, the Titanic received six warnings from other ships, and ice had been seen earlier that day; Capt. Edward John Smith believed ice posed no risk to his huge ship.

4 Seawater entered six compartments through gaps in starboard hull plates where rivets had popped; this led to more flooding than the ship’s design could survive.

Lifeboats The Titanic had 20 lifeboats, which could have held up to 1,178 people, only a third of those onboard (although this met the maritime rules of the day).

Watertight bulkheads

Lifeboats not totally filled Most left the ship without being loaded to capacity; some were less than half-filled.

Californian The British steamer SS Californian is thought to have seen the Titanic’s distress rocket flares from about 10 miles away, but did not steam toward them.

Last-minute maneuver failed Path ship Rather than striking the berg head-on, which likely took experts think would have caused less damage, Desired “portFirst Officer William Murdoch tried to swing the bow around” course around it, then swing the stern, by changing the rudder position and reversing the two outboard engines; this failed, and the Titanic’s speed, distance covered glancing blow was struck. 918 feet

Strong tides lifted bergs The unusually close approach by the moon on Jan. 4, 1912, may have caused very high tides, refloating icebergs grounded earlier in shallow waters near the Labrador and Newfoundland coasts, causing a glut of bergs in the shipping lanes into which the Titanic steamed.

T S NORTH KOREA

SYRIA

Amid shaky truce, U.N. powers vote to send observers By Neil MacFarquhar

Ng Han Guan / The Associated Press

Kim Jong Un, North Korea’s young new leader — dressed in a dark Mao suit — appeared confident and calm as he read from notes before tens of thousands of people gathered in Pyongyang’s main square during meticulously choreographed festivities honoring the late Kim Il Sung, whose 100th birthday would have been today.

Young Kim speaks up By Jean H. Lee The Associated Press

PYONGYANG, North Korea — Kim Jong Un delivered his first public televised speech today, just two days after a failed rocket launch, portraying himself as a strong military chief unafraid of foreign powers during festivities meant to glorify his grandfather, North Korea founder Kim Il Sung. Kim Jong Un’s words mirrored what North Korea regularly says in its state media, but there was symbolic power in the images of the new leader,

who is believed to be in his late 20s, addressing the country on state TV and then watching — and often laughing and gesturing in relaxed conversation with senior officials — as a parade of military troops and hardware marched by. In the speech, he made it clear the military will continue to have a dominant role in running the country, just as it did under his father and former leader Kim Jong Il, who died in December. He called for strengthening his father’s “military first” policy by plac-

ing the country’s “first, second and third” priorities on military might. “Superiority in military technology is no longer monopolized by imperialists,” he said. Although the North endured an embarrassing failure Friday when its much-anticipated launch of a long-range rocket broke into pieces over the Yellow Sea shortly after liftoff, the address was seen as an expression of confidence by the young leader and a signal meant to show that he is firmly in control.

Diplomats optimistic after talks end Day 1 By Joby Warrick The Washington Post.

ISTANBUL — Western diplomats claimed modest progress Saturday after more than 10 hours of talks with Iranian officials, raising hopes for at least a temporary easing of a nuclear crisis that has fueled fears of a new military conflict in the Middle East. The daylong talks at an Istanbul conference center did not yield an agreement on specific curbs to Iran’s nuclear program, but U.S. and European officials described the negotiations as “constructive and useful” and said a second round had been set for May 23 in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad. “We want now to move to a sustained process of serious dialogue,” said Catherine Ashton, the European Union’s foreign policy chief and lead negotiator for a bloc of six world powers engaged in the first direct nuclear talks with Iran since January 2011. The chief Iranian representative, Supreme National Security Council Secretary Saeed Jalili — who reiterated that it is “un-Islamic” to have a nuclear weapon — called the talks a “success” and said he believed the atmosphere was now conducive to progress. A senior U.S. official described the tone of the discussions as encouraging but stressed the need for rapid progress on steps to ease concerns about Iran’s nuclear intentions. Both Ashton and Jalili said the two sides would begin work immediately on an arguably harder task: drafting concrete proposals for resolving the crisis. The proposals and counterproposals will address an array of complex and emotionally laden issues, including Western demands for suspension of parts of Iran’s nuclear program as well as Iranian calls for easing economic sanctions.

At Saturday’s opening ceremony of the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Colombia, President Barack Obama sought to convince U.S. business that he’s serious about expanding trade in Latin America and persuade the region to look northward once again — all in the midst of foreign policy challenges like Iran and Cuba, and a prostitution scandal involving his security detail.

Results of Obama stance on foreign foes are mixed By Julie Pace The Associated Press

CARTAGENA, Colombia — President Barack Obama’s stated willingness to engage with America’s adversaries comes with promise and peril, a reality hammered home by signs of progress in nuclear talks with Iran and a setback in North Korea’s provocative rocket launch. In Colombia, where Obama is attending a summit with Latin American leaders, the president has been confronted by the stubbornly stalled U.S.Cuba relationship, despite his offer of a “new beginning” with the communist nation. The convergence of events focused fresh attention on a foreign policy strategy that puts a premium on keeping the door open for diplomacy, even with countries the U.S. considers “bad actors.” Obama administration officials say the strategy has improved the U.S. standing in the world by showing that America is more willing to look outward, 10 years since President George W. Bush branded Iran, Iraq and North Korea as members of an “axis of evil.” White House deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes credited U.S. engagement with Iran and North Korea with allowing the U.S. to rally international support for stronger penalties when those nations proved to be defiant. But the president’s critics say his open engagement policy is weak. Almost immediately after North Korea’s failed rocket

launch Thursday, Mitt Romney, his GOP rival for the presidency, accused Obama of trying to appease the reclusive communist country by dangling a food aid deal “that proved to be as naive as it was short-lived.” Romney has said that if he were negotiating with, for example, Cuba, he would want to know what he was going to get in return before making any concessions. Obama did lay out his conditions for re-engagement with Cuba when he made his call for a “new beginning” during the 2009 Summit of the Americas in Trinidad and Tobago. A new approach would require Cuba to release political prisoners and embrace other democratic and economic freedoms, he said. It was the most significant U.S. gesture in decades toward Cuba and was welcomed at first by the island’s leaders. But that’s about as far as Obama got in his quest for a new beginning. Despite the lack of progress from offering to engage with both Cuba and North Korea, the president has shown little willingness to walk away from diplomacy. The U.S. and five other world partners held talks with Iran this weekend on the Islamic republic’s disputed nuclear program. After a day of noted progress, all sides will be back at the negotiating table next month. Rhodes, the deputy national security adviser, questioned what critics of the engagement policies would prefer as an alternative. “Ignoring challenges doesn’t make them go away.”

Secret Service scandal spreads; 5 soldiers held CARTAGENA, Colombia — About a dozen Secret Service agents faced questioning by the agency’s internal watchdog Saturday as part of an investigation into accusations of misconduct involving prostitution here in Cartagena, where President Barack Obama arrived Friday for a summit meeting. In addition, five U.S. military service members who were working with the Secret Service unit and staying in the same hotel have been confined to quarters and are facing an investigation because they violated a curfew and “may have been involved in inappropriate conduct,” the military said. The Defense Department will conduct its own investigation upon their return to the United States, said Gen. Douglas Fraser, commander of the U.S. Southern Command, where the military personnel were from. The Secret Service agents had been sent to Colombia to provide support to teams preparing security measures ahead of the president’s arrival. Late last week, the Secret Service abruptly replaced the entire unit. Much remained murky, including the precise number of agents under scrutiny and the time line, and officials emphasized that the investigation was still in its early stages. — From wire reports

As low-level violence sputtered in various Syrian cities Saturday, the U.N. Security Council voted unanimously to send an advance team of up to 30 military observers there to begin monitoring a tenuous cease-fire. It was the first time since the Syrian uprising began 13 months ago that the Security Council put its full weight behind a concrete proposal to stop the violence, with Russia — Syria’s main foreign patron — and China joining the rest of the 15-member council to authorize the observer mission. And the resolution put new pressure on Syria to take its troops off the streets and to open a dialogue with the opposition, both crucial aspects of the six-point plan aimed at ending more than a year of bloodshed. The resolution was delayed for a day by wrangling with Russia over its demand that the opposition also be held responsible, and changes in the wording reflected that demand. “We need to keep building on this fragile process,” said Vitaly Churkin, the Russian envoy. He raised questions about plans announced by supporters of the opposition to

finance its fighters, concerns echoed by the Syrian ambassador, both saying it would undermine the peace plan. The advance team drawn from nearby U.N. missions is expected to be sent immediately, and Syria has agreed to permit its entry. Negotiations will also begin with the Syrian government for a larger monitoring mission of 250 observers. The Security Council requested that the U.N. secretary general make a formal request for a full monitoring mission in Syria by April 19. Most Security Council members put the onus for sticking to the cease-fire on the government of President Bashar Assad. “We’re under no illusions,” said Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. “Just this morning, Syrian forces resumed their brutal shelling of Homs and opened fire on mourners in Aleppo, raising renewed doubts about the sincerity of the regime’s commitment to a cease-fire.” In Syria, sporadic shelling from the government’s armed forces again struck Homs, activists said.

Was Libya NATO’s On road to 270, red states matter new kind of war? Alliance hopes not By Thomas Beaumont The Associated Press

• Analysis finds flaws in campaign against Gadhafi By Eric Schmitt New York Times News Service

The report also spotlights an important issue for the alliance that dates to the Balkan wars of the 1990s: that the United States has emerged “by default” as the NATO specialist in providing precision-guided munitions — which made up virtually all of the 7,700 bombs and missiles dropped or fired on Libya — and a vast majority of specialized aircraft that conduct aerial intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions, or ISR in military parlance. “NATO remains overly reliant on a single ally to provide ISR collection capabilities that are essential to the commander,” the report said.

WASHINGTON — Despite widespread praise in Western capitals for NATO’s leadership of the air campaign in Libya, a confidential NATO assessment paints a sobering portrait of the alliance’s ability to carry out such campaigns without significant support from the United States.

EUROPE

New phenomenon: suicide by economic crisis By Elisabetta Povoledo and Doreen Carvajal New York Times News Service

TREVISO, Italy — On New Year’s Eve, Antonio Tamiozzo, 53, hanged himself in the warehouse of his construction business near Vicenza, after several debtors did not pay what they owed him. Three weeks earlier, Giovanni Schiavon, 59, a contractor, shot himself in the head at the headquarters of his debt-ridden construction company on the outskirts of Padua. As he faced the bleak prospect of ordering Christmas layoffs at his family firm of two generations, he wrote a last message: “Sorry, I cannot take it anymore.” The economic downturn that has shaken Europe for the last three years has also swept away the foundations of once-sturdy lives, leading to an alarming spike in suicide rates. Especially in the most fragile nations like Greece, Ireland and Italy, small-business owners and entrepreneurs are increasingly taking their own lives in a phenomenon some European newspapers have started calling “suicide by economic crisis.” Many, like Tamiozzo and Schiavon, have died in obscurity. Others, like the desperate 77-year-old retiree who shot himself outside the Greek Parliament on April 4, have turned their personal despair into dramatic public expressions of anger at the leaders who have failed to soften the blows of the crisis. A complete picture of the phenomenon across Europe is elusive, as some countries lag in reporting statistics and coroners are loath to classify deaths as suicides, to protect surviving family members. But it is clear that countries on the front line of the economic crisis are suffering the worst, and that suicides among men have increased the most.

Eoin O’Conaill / The International Herald Tribune

In countries hardest hit by the downturn, small-business men and entrepreneurs are increasingly taking their own lives. George Mordaunt, 44, said he considered that. For three years, until 2007, he helped to build up his family’s 30-year-old automobile business in southern Ireland. Then, in 2008, the crisis struck. Only one dealership remains. “ ‘Save the sob story,’ ” he recalled being told by his banker. “ ‘We want our money. If that means taking your family home, we’ll do it.’ ”

The Lancet that found a sharp rise in suicides across Europe, particularly in seriously affected countries like Greece and Ireland from 2007 to 2009, years that coincided with the downturn. In Ireland, the phenomenon has been linked to what some therapists call Celtic Tiger depression, the period after 2008 characterized by an influx of middle-aged male patients who complained about sleeplessness and a lack of appetite in the aftermath of that nation’s destructive boom-and-

bust real estate market. To search for answers, researchers for the National Suicide Research Foundation in Cork interviewed surviving relatives of 190 people who committed suicide in County Cork during the turbulent period from 2008 to March 2011.

Why just men? The victims were predominantly men, with an average age of 36. Almost 40 percent were unemployed, and 32 percent worked in construction as plumbers, electricians and

plasterers, said Ella Arensman, the foundation’s director of research. Generally, she added, they suffered from a constellation of problems: financial struggles, unemployment, broken relationships and loneliness. Across Europe, men are the most vulnerable, particularly unmarried men who have weak family and government support, according to Stuckler, the sociologist. Alcohol abuse is a frequent contributing factor, he said, adding, “It’s really important to have friends and family you can trust in hard times.” In some places, community groups and charities have tried to provide a patchwork of aid along with suicide prevention campaigns to raise awareness. In Ireland, at Saint Peter and Paul’s parish in Clonmel, the church offered a three-day seminar on themes like “Suicide in Recessionary Times.” Suicide prevention hot line numbers are posted in gas stations on the road to Dublin, and a number of prominent figures are speaking out on the issue, among them the president of Ireland, rugby stars and U2’s bass player, Adam Clayton, who is raising money for free mental health services for young adults with a national Walk in My Shoes day on April 26.

How bad? In Greece, the suicide rate among men increased more than 24 percent from 2007 to 2009, government statistics show. In Ireland during the same period, suicides among men rose more than 16 percent. In Italy, suicides motivated by economic difficulties have increased 52 percent, to 187 in 2010 — the most recent year for which statistics were available — from 123 in 2005. Researchers say the trend has intensified this year as government austerity measures took hold and compounded the hardships for many. While suicides often have many complex causes, researchers have found that severe economic stress corresponds to higher suicide rates. “Financial crisis puts the lives of ordinary people at risk, but much more dangerous is when there are radical cuts to social protection,” said David Stuckler, a sociologist at the University of Cambridge, who led a study published in

NRA: Media sensationalizing Florida shooting The Associated Press ST. LOUIS — A top National Rifle Association official levied sharp criticism against the national media Saturday, accusing it of sensationalizing the Trayvon Martin case and ignoring other crimes that happen across the country every day.

During the NRA gathering, he called the news media “a national disgrace.” LaPierre said violent crime is an everyday fact of life in every American city. “But the media, they don’t care,” LaPierre said. “Everyday victims aren’t celebrities. They don’t draw ratings.”

When super PACs die ... • When a group backing a candidate no longer has a candidate, there’s money to burn By Jeremy Roebuck The Philadelphia Inquirer

Peter Morrison / The Associated Press

Robert Ballard, professor of oceanography at the University of Rhode Island, points to his footage of the Titanic site on Saturday, images that are part of the exhibition on display in Northern Ireland. Ballard and his team discovered the wreck 1985. “I would not be surprised if highly preserved bodies were found” inside the ship, Ballard said in an interview.

Titanic Continued from A1 Delgado’s agency, an arm of the Commerce Department, has released to the news media an image from 2004 that shows a boot on the seabed near what the agency calls a coat. “The articulation of the coat and boots are highly suggestive of someone coming to rest here,” Delgado said by email. “This is the first full release of the whole image and the first explicit captioning.” The federal campaign is dividing Titanic experts. The most experienced divers say they doubt bodies lie intact in unexplored compartments of the deteriorating ship. “I’ve seen zero human remains,” James Cameron, the moviemaker and explorer, who has visited the wreck 33 times and extensively probed its interior, said in an interview. “We’ve seen clothing. We’ve seen shoes. We’ve seen pairs of shoes, which would strongly suggest there was a body there at one point. But we’ve never seen any human remains.” Right now, of course, is an excellent time for federal officials to press their concerns and make their case for new protections. Today is the centenary of the sinking, and — not coincidentally — Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., has introduced a bill that would give the Commerce Department new supervisory powers to protect the Titanic wreck site from salvagers and intrusive research.

Hallowed ground? The fight for protection began shortly after the Titanic was found in 1985 more than two miles down at the bottom of the North Atlantic, upright but split in two. The international waters ensured a long struggle over legal jurisdiction — even as salvagers made off with thousands of artifacts. In 1986, Congress passed a protective law known as the RMS Titanic Memorial Act, but officials at the ocean agency and elsewhere agree it has no teeth. In 2004, the U.S., France, Canada and Britain signed a draft treaty for better safeguards. But it has never been approved because it requires legislative support — which the Kerry bill would provide. While seeking to enhance their custodial role, federal officials are now pressing the question of the missing dead. After the Titanic sank, searchers recovered 340 bodies. Thus, of the roughly 1,500 people killed in the disaster, about 1,160 bodies remain lost. In an interview, Delgado said the muddy seabed showed “clear signs” of human imprint. “Yes, you don’t see much in the way of bone,” he said, referring to the newly released photograph. “But this is clearly where someone came to rest on the bottom. It speaks powerfully to it being a grave site.” Paul Nargeolet, a French

A boot lies near what is thought to be a coat on the seabed of the Titanic site. “There are people inside,” says James Delgado, who works for the U.S. agency that released this image, from 2004. “The coat and boots are highly suggestive of someone coming to rest here.” But James Cameron, the moviemaker, said that in his 33 visits to the wreck, “I’ve seen zero human remains.”

mini-sub pilot who has visited the Titanic 30 times — the second-most experienced diver, after Cameron — also says he had never seen any human remains. Skeptics say federal officials are exaggerating scanty evidence in an effort to expand their powers. “It’s a legal tactic,” said David Concannon, a maritime lawyer who has dived to the Titanic’s resting place and advised the Explorers Club. “The opponents of salvage want to equate it to a grave site.” But Delgado defended his agency, saying: “We’re not pushing for bureaucratic turf. We’re pushing for international cooperation to protect the wreck.” Scholars say most of the people who died were probably in life jackets and swept far to sea by wind and waves. After the sinking, a storm blew up that was reported to have scattered bobbing corpses in a line 50 miles long. But some Titanic historians argue that as many as hundreds of people were trapped inside the sinking ship. In the deep sea, a main factor that governs decomposition is the amount of oxygen dissolved in the surrounding seawater. When plentiful, oxygen supports the respiration of deep-sea scavengers. Currents that crisscross the global deep constantly deliver fresh oxygen that can energize armies of worms, fish and other organisms that display voracious appetites. Leather is typically unaffected. Archaeologists have found intact sandals in ancient shipwrecks. Decomposition slows if bodies get cut off from the open sea, reducing oxygen levels and scavengers. The interiors of old wrecks have thus yielded bones, teeth and sometimes whole bodies. “It’s totally dependent on where they were,” said Tom Dettweiler, a veteran sea explorer who helped find the Titanic’s resting place. “In modern wrecks, you can get microenvironments that pre-

Congress proposes penalties for looting Sen. John Kerry’s RMS Titanic Maritime Memorial Preservation Act would impose penalties of up to $250,000 a day and five years in prison on any U.S. vessel or American that disturbs the wreckage without permission or brings illegally recovered artifacts into the country. The Titanic lies in international waters, but the legislation, cosponsored by Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., seeks to thwart “looting and unscientific salvage” of Titanic artifacts — even by foreigners — by establishing penalties for bringing them into the United States and by subjecting them to seizure by the government. The bill does not prohibit exploration or salvage but subjects activities near the wreckage to the rules established by the international agreement. It would give the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration authority to enforce such rules. It also would establish the Titanic Advisory Council to make recommendation on “preservation of RMS Titanic property and conservation and curation of artifacts recovered.” — Los Angeles Times

serve bodies.” For the Titanic, the oxygen factor means beastly scavengers long ago found nearby corpses. But — in theory, at least — bodies in undamaged areas of the hull would be less vulnerable if sealed off from currents and oxygen.

Hunting for artifacts In 1987, two years after the Titanic’s discovery, deep sea explorers began gathering artifacts and tiptoeing around the body issue. One expedition found what appeared to be a wedding band and part of a human finger while probing a debris field, according to a new book, “Farewell, Titanic.” It says the explorers quickly decided to rebury the grim find and declare the area off-limits. In 2000, amid an escalating legal war with artifact hunters, the ocean agency issued draft guidelines for the site’s preservation. Of the disaster’s 1,500 victims, the paper asserted, “many of those were trapped in the ship’s hull.” It cited no evidence. Today the ocean agency is more specific. Its website says inner areas of the hull “may not be exposed” to the surrounding environment and thus have low oxygen levels, a state known as anoxia. Isolated environments, it says, “create a condition of stasis where constant pressure, low temperatures, no flow, and anoxic water levels have been known to preserve organic matter for centuries.” In the interview, Cameron dismissed the idea. Ocean currents, he said, “blow through the ship like a drafty house with all the windows open.” He called preserved bodies “highly conjectural” and “not based on the data.” Visibly miffed, Cameron added that no federal official “has ever called me up and said, ‘Hey, why don’t you make all your hundreds of hours of interior survey available to us so we can actually have an informed opinion?’ ” Despite his reservations about the federal assertions, he noted that he was still in favor of the site’s preservation. Other Titanic experts — including Robert Ballard, a discoverer of the wreck who has long advocated its protection — echo federal officials and call it possible and perhaps likely that human remains lie intact in unexplored compartments. “I would not be surprised if highly preserved bodies were found in the engine room,” he said. “That was deep inside the ship.” Asked how many bodies the broken hull of the Titanic might hold, Ballard replied: “Dozens. Hundreds starts to feel uncomfortable. I know that lots landed on the bottom, because there are so many shoes.”

Consider the forlorn fate of a super PAC that has outlived its political purpose: Once flush with cash in support of a rising Republican candidate trying to dodge Mitt Romney’s mallet in this year’s primary game of Whac-A-Mole. Now, sitting on a pile of greenbacks, its man beat back into the annals of presidential history and no spending goals in sight. So what happens to the millions collected by such groups on behalf of the Rick Santorums, Rick Perrys and Jon Huntsmans of this world when these would-be presidents wind down their campaigns? In short, campaign finance experts said, super PAC managers can spend the money on whatever they like. “Theoretically, they could buy a yacht and sail off into the sunset, drinking margaritas if they wanted to,” said Paul Ryan, a campaign finance expert at the nonpartisan Campaign Legal Center. “In a nutshell, there are no restrictions.” Well, except for two. The rules still prohibit such committees from donating directly to specific candidates and political parties or coordinating their spending with either. That means none of the $5.1 million collected (as of its latest federal filings) by the Santorum-supporting Red, White and Blue Fund can go toward eliminating the nearly $1 million debt the former Pennsylvania senator incurred on the trail before he left the race Tuesday.

Investigation Continued from A1 The Oregon State Police conducted an investigation on behalf of the justice department, and the Washington County District Attorney’s Office reviewed its findings. Flaherty was cleared of criminal wrongdoing in early March, and both he and Blanton say the incident has not compromised their working relationship. Blanton was elk hunting in October 2011 when he received a call from Capt. Tim Edwards, who was acting sheriff while Blanton was out of town. According to a report produced by the OSP, Edwards told Blanton that Deschutes County assistant legal counsel Chris Bell had contacted him to report that investigator Sharon Sweet felt “threatened and endangered” by the actions of Flaherty. When Blanton returned to Deschutes County, he met with Bell, who described an incident in which Sweet had gone into Flaherty’s office for a conversation. “During this conversation, Flaherty leaned over his desk with clenched fists, red and strained face,” OSP Lt. Steven Duvall wrote. “Sweet felt threatened by this action to the point if she had a weapon, she would have drawn it.” Blanton said earlier this month that he thought about how he would handle the report, if different people were involved. “What would we do with that same alleged complaint if one of our guys or ladies were dispatched to a call today on that? And the answer is, we’d investigate it because of the potential seriousness of the allegations,” Blanton said. “I did not talk to Sharon Sweet. I confirmed with county legal, Chris Bell and Mark Pilliod, what she had told Chris Bell.” “I left there, call DOJ, gave them the information, and a few days later I heard back from them saying they had a conflict with that investigation. But the attorney general had determined there needed to be an investigation and they

summoned the help of the Oregon State Police.” According to the OSP investigation report, Blanton also said Flaherty misused his power to convene a grand jury in early 2011 and this might rise to the level of official misconduct, a misdemeanor. Flaherty used the grand jury to investigate whether county staff, specifically Deschutes County Legal Counsel Mark Pilliod, intentionally released prosecutors’ job applications to The Bulletin without redacting personal information. “I mentioned the whole grand jury issue because that’s why we were there to begin with, and that’s why Sharon was no longer over at the DA’s office,” Blanton said. “The only reason I called DOJ was because of the allegation made by Sharon Sweet.” Deschutes County Sheriff’s Legal Counsel Darryl Nakahira, a former chief deputy district attorney whom Flaherty fired upon taking office, faxed a letter to the OSP outlining how Flaherty might have committed the crime of official misconduct because of the way he handled the grand jury. The letter was submitted to the Oregon State Bar in summer 2011 by private attorneys working for Deschutes County. In the letter, attorneys William Gary and Dave Frohnmayer cited evidence that Flaherty was “frustrated” by Pilliod and that the two lawyers engaged in “contentious and open disagreements” about the county prosecutors’ union negotiations and the district attorney’s ability to fire employees. The OSP determined within the first couple weeks of the investigation that there was no evidence Flaherty menaced Sweet. In a Nov. 29 interview, Sweet told the OSP she did not believe Flaherty committed a crime against her. Sweet had worked with Flaherty in the past, when she was a detective for the Bend Police Department, and she told the OSP they had a good working relationship. But Sweet also heard rumors that Flaherty wanted to fire her, and in January 2011 she went to talk to him about her job.

“I wanted to visit with him about that, try to assure him that, you know, I had no problem with working for him and that I just wanted to keep my job and he became very angry at one point and his face became very contorted, cords standing out on his neck, he was red in the face and began, um, screaming at me and, you know, that, that was overheard by people right outside the, his office.” Earlier this month, Sweet said, “I never said he menaced me. I never even intimated that. … I don’t know where that information came from.” Bell confirmed Sweet’s statements. “I don’t think she did use the terms menacing and harassing,” Bell said on Thursday. Blanton said that while Sweet might not have described Flaherty’s behavior as menacing, law enforcement must decide whether someone’s actions are potentially criminal and should be investigated. “The confrontation and situation described by Sharon Sweet to Mark Pilliod and Chris Bell rose to a level of some potential alleged criminal issues up to and including menacing or other law violations,” Blanton said. “That’s why it had to be investigated.” In a recent interview at the District Attorney’s Office, Flaherty said the Sheriff’s role in the investigation did not affect the working relationship between the law enforcement agencies. “We have a very good working relationship with all law enforcement agencies,” Flaherty said. “I’ve talked with Sheriff Blanton, and that’s not going to affect our relationship at all.” “I certainly don’t fault what the sheriff did,” Flaherty said. “He felt he had a conflict or it was most appropriate to refer it on to DOJ.” Blanton also said the incident has not interfered in law enforcement’s ability to work with the district attorney. “We’re all trained professionals, and we know what the focus is,” Blanton said. — Reporter: 541-617-7829, hborrud@bendbulletin.com

W B 3 leading candidates can’t run in Egypt CAIRO — Egyptian election authorities eliminated three of the country’s leading presidential candidates in one broad stroke Saturday night in an unexpected decision that once again threw into disarray the contest to shape the future of Egypt after the ouster of Hosni Mubarak. The High Election Commission struck down 10 candidates in all, including the three who have generated the most passion in this polarized nation: Khairat el-Shater, the leading strategist of the Muslim Brotherhood; Hazem Salah Abu Ismail, an ultraconservative Islamist; and Omar Suleiman, Mubarak’s former vice president and intelligence chief. A little more than a month before the vote begins, the ruling raised new doubts about the credibility of the election, which is supposed to

inaugurate a new democracy after decades of authoritarian rule.

Lockerbie bomber ‘on his last breath’ TRIPOLI, Libya — The former Libyan intelligence officer convicted in the 1988 Lockerbie plane bombing was taken to a hospital Saturday for a blood transfusion with his health deteriorating, his family says. Abdel Baset al-Meg ra hi’s son, Khaled, Al-Megrahi said his father was carried to Tripoli Medical Center for the second time in two days. “My dad’s health is very bad and has been worsening,” Khaled said, at the family house in Tripoli. “He is on his last breath.” Al-Megrahi is the only person convicted for the bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland, that

killed 270. He was released from a Scottish prison on humanitarian grounds in 2009, eight years into a life sentence. Doctors then predicted that he would die of prostate cancer within three months.

2 Sudans keep up border attacks MOMBASA, Kenya — Sudan and South Sudan engaged in a second day of direct military clashes and aerial bombardments Saturday in what the South described as a “limited war” between the two nations that will continue indefinitely “off and on.” A South Sudanese military spokesman said fighting had broken out between the two armies near the town of Kersana as Sudanese armed forces advanced to try to retake the Heglig oil fields, which Sudan had controlled from 2005 until South Sudan captured them Tuesday. — From wire reports

Jolie-Pitt: A media frenzy awaits By Sandy Cohen The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Will and Kate were just the warmup for the true wedding of the century. After years of cohabitation, six kids and countless tabloid headlines, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie made it official: They plan to make it official. Now that the couple are officially engaged, expect endless speculation about where and when they’ll wed, what they’ll wear, what their kids’ roles will be, and who might get to attend the celebration. “This is really a state wedding,” said Stephen Galloway, executive editor of features at The Hollywood Reporter. “This is America’s equivalent to Prince William and Kate Middleton.”

The Associated Press

Actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie announced their engagement Friday.

Pitt’s manager confirmed the couple’s engagement Friday after Jolie was spotted wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger. But Bradley Jacobs, a senior editor at Us Weekly, sees things differently. He anticipates the wedding will be a private, even low-key affair.

“I don’t think you’re going to see a bunch of fanfare.” Still, expect massive media coverage either way: “We will not rest until we know when and where and how and who’s going to be there,” Jacobs said. The timing of the engagement and the wedding are also fodder for editorial exploration. The couple long maintained that they wouldn’t marry until the right to do so was extended to all Americans, but when Galloway interviewed Pitt for a February cover story, the 48-year-old actor said he didn’t think they’d be able to hold out that long. The movie A-listers have been partners since they began a relationship in 2005 while working on the film “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.”

Tornadoes pound U.S. The Associated Press OMAHA, Neb. — Tornadoes were spotted across the Midwest and Plains on Saturday as an outbreak of unusually strong weather seized the region, and forecasters sternly warned that “life-threatening” weather could intensify overnight. Storms were reported in Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska and Oklahoma. Authorities also said about 75 percent of the small western Iowa community of Thurman was destroyed, with no injuries reported there either. In Nebraska, baseball-sized hail shattered windows and ripped siding from houses. In Oklahoma, more than 5,000 people gathered for a rattlesnake hunt in Woods County scattered when a tornado touched down there, said the county’s emergency management director, Steve Foster. National Weather Service forecasters issued sobering outlooks that the worst of the weather would hit around nightfall, predicting that conditions were right for exceptionally strong tornadoes. Saturday was just the second time in U.S. history that the Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla., part of the National Weather Service, issued a high-risk warning more than 24 hours in advance. The first was in April 2006, when nearly 100 tornadoes tore across the southeastern U.S., killing a dozen people and damaging more than 1,000 homes in Tennessee. While there were no fatalities as of Saturday evening, storm spottings were plentiful. And forecasters warned that the threat from the storm system wasn’t over. “Severe weather is possible again (Sunday) from east Texas and Arkansas and up into the Great Lakes,” said Bill Bunting, chief of operations at the Storm Prediction Center.

New York Times News Service ASTRAKHAN, Russia — With their political credibility largely on the line, the organizers of Moscow’s huge anti-government street protests staged a rare major action outside the capital Saturday, rallying about 1,500 people against suspected ballot fraud in Astrakhan’s mayoral election. It was a modest turnout, showing that the anti-government forces are still fumbling for a way forward and are so far unable to surmount public indifference and light a fire for political reform. A pro-government rally earlier in the day drew far more people, some carrying signs that said, “Emissaries, Time to Go Home.” The protests in Moscow in December after parliamentary elections, were among the largest since the fall of the Soviet Union, but they fizzled after Prime Minister Vladimir Putin easily won the presidential election last month. Organizers, conceding that they lacked concrete goals, developed Plan B: a focus on local politics, hoping to rally the rest of Russia to their cause. Astrakhan, a regional southern capital near where the Volga River reaches the Caspian Sea, offered a dramatic backdrop: Oleg Shein, a candidate for mayor from the opposition Just Russia party, was on a hunger strike to protest suspected ballot fraud that he said had cost him the race.

Continued from A1 It fits with the Obama administration’s “all of the above” approach to including renewable energy, and money stays in the local economy, both as projects are built and as the sites produce energy, Johnson said. “It just makes sense. You already have energy that’s flowing downhill,” he said. “Let’s get off of carbon-based energy; let’s do something that helps the local economy.” But North Unit Irrigation District general manager Mike Britton is skeptical the government’s analysis will result in private investors looking to develop hydro sites on the North Unit’s main canal. Most are in isolated spots and don’t have a convenient way to hook into the electrical grid, he said. “The sites that are identified in the report aren’t very attractive sites. They aren’t big generating locations. They’re small drops with minimal value to them,” Britton said. “There are a few in the district that are attractive, and those are the ones we are pursuing ourselves.” The North Unit projects could begin operating in 2013 or 2014, he said, but they will be nothing as large as the scale envisioned by the Bureau of Reclamation’s report. Johnson said the Central Oregon Irrigation District’s recent successes in developing hydroelectric sites demonstrated the viability of energy projects on pre-existing canals. “We did this on our own, because we knew this would

be a good idea,” he said. “It’s because of the success of those two that it’s bloomed into a Western states-wide focus for Department of the Interior.” The Juniper Ridge project received millions in government funds to pay for running 2.5 miles of the canal through pipe, Johnson said. The hydro project that the irrigation district is working on is much smaller. It will cost roughly $1 million and won’t involve piping any of the flow, he said. Hydropower has certain advantages over other renewable energy sources, he said. Unlike wind and solar, which depend on weather conditions, hydro creates a steady, dependable flow, as long as there is water running. While water may flow through the canals in Central Oregon for only six or seven months a year, it is a predictable, stable source of energy during those months, he said. Of the 365,000 megawatthours identified in the study, almost 76,000 are in Oregon. At 100,000 and 82,500 megawatt-hours, respectively, Colorado and Wyoming are the other states with big potential. “Hydropower is an important part of President Obama’s initiative to generate 80 percent of electricity in this country from a diverse set of clean energy sources by 2035,” Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said in a prepared statement. “Identifying and developing hydropower potential at existing facilities is one way we’re putting the all-of-the-above strategy to develop American energy sources into practice.”

to repair relations with former enemies by requesting permission to recover the remains of Americans listed as missing in action or prisoners of war. That practice allows two opposing militaries to meet over humanitarian issues, rather than security matters, and offers Americans an opportunity to enter previously forbidden territory that over time may become more welcoming. Some of the first official postwar contacts with Vietnam developed a decade after the end of the fighting when the U.S. and Vietnamese militaries began tentative cooperation that gradually strengthened as the search for missing U.S. soldiers progressed. The Pentagon had reached out to North Korea for help in recovering the remains of U.S. soldiers missing in action from the Korean War, but that plan was canceled after North Korea announced its intention to launch the rocket that broke

The Associated Press LONDON — Former Bee Gee Robin Gibb is in a coma after contracting pneumonia, a statement on his official website said Saturday. The statement, which confirmed media re- Gibb ports that the singer was gravely ill, said, “We are all hoping and praying that he will pull through.” Family members including wife Dwina and brother Barry were at Gibb’s bedside in a London hospital. Gibb’s publicist, Doug Wright, declined to comment, but Gibb’s son has acknowledged that the 62year-old musician is seriously ill in a hospital. Gibb was hospitalized last year for stomach and colon problems. He has not specified the exact nature of his illness — widely reported to be cancer — but told the BBC he had a growth on his colon that was removed.

Turning the tide The United Nations estimates that the global population will stabilize at 10 billion in 2100, assuming that declining birthrates will eventually yield a global average of 2.1 children per woman. At a rate of even 2.6, Guengant said, the number becomes 16 billion. There are signs that the shifting economics and lifestyles of middle-class Africans may help turn the tide, Ogunjuyigbe said. As Nigeria urbanizes, childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help is not needed in fields; the extended families have broken down. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Children were seen as a kind of insurance for the future; now they are a liability for life,â&#x20AC;? he said.

In Nigeria, experts say, the swelling ranks of unemployed youths with little hope have fed the growth of the radical Islamist group Boko Haram, which has bombed or burned more than a dozen churches and schools this year. Internationally, the African population boom means more illegal immigration, already at a high, according to Frontex, the European border agency. There are up to 400,000 undocumented Africans in the United States. Statistics are stunning. SubSaharan Africa, which now accounts for 12 percent of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population, will account for more than a third by 2100, by many projections. Because Africa was for centuries agriculturally based and sparsely populated, it made sense for leaders to promote high fertility rates. Family planning was introduced in the 1970s by groups like USAID. Later on, money and attention were diverted from family planning to Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s AIDS crisis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Women in sub-Saharan Africa were left behind,â&#x20AC;? said Jean-Pierre Guengant, director of research at the Research Institute for Development, in Paris. The drastic transition from high to low birthrates that took place in poor countries in Asia, Latin America and North Africa has yet to happen here. That transition often brings substantial economic benefits, said Eduard Bos, a population specialist at the World Bank. Large families signal pros-

perity in African cultures; some cultures let women attend village meetings only after they have had their 11th child. And a history of high infant mortality, since improved thanks to interventions like vaccination, makes families reluctant to have fewer children. In a deeply religious country where many Roman Catholics and Muslims oppose contraception, politicians and doctors broach the topic gingerly, and change is slow. Posters promote â&#x20AC;&#x153;birth spacing,â&#x20AC;? not â&#x20AC;&#x153;birth control.â&#x20AC;? Supplies of contraceptives are often erratic. In Asian countries, womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contraceptive use skyrocketed from less than 20 percent to 80 percent in a few decades. In Latin America, requiring girls to finish high school correlated with a sharp drop in birthrates. But contraceptive use is rising only a fraction of a percent annually â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in many sub-Saharan African nations, it is under 20 percent â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and, in surveys, even well-educated women in the region often want four to six children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At this pace it will take 100-plus years to arrive at a point where fertility is controlled,â&#x20AC;? Guengant said.

In the commercial hub of Lagos, Nigeria, where the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population has by some estimates nearly doubled over 15 years to 21 million, living standards for many are falling. Lifelong residents like Peju Taofika and her three granddaughters inhabit a room in a typical apartment block known as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Face Me, Face Youâ&#x20AC;? because whole families squeeze into 7-by-11-foot rooms along a narrow corridor. Up to 50 people share a kitchen, toilet and sink â&#x20AC;&#x201D; though the pipes in the neighborhood often no longer carry water. As graduates pour out of high schools and universities, Nigeriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unemployment rate is nearly 50 percent for people in urban areas ages 15 to 24 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; driving crime and discontent. Across sub-Saharan Africa, alarmed governments have begun to act, often reversing long-standing policies that encouraged or accepted large families. Nigeria made contraceptives free last year, and officials are promoting smaller families as a key to economic salvation, holding up the financial gains in nations like Thailand as inspiration. Nigeria, already the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sixth most populous nation with 167 million people, is a crucial test case, since its success or failure at bringing down birthrates will have outsize influence on the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population. If this large nation rich with oil cannot control its growth, what hope is there for many poorer countries? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Population is key,â&#x20AC;? said Peter Ogunjuyigbe, a demographer at Obafemi Awolowo University in the small central city of Ile-Ife. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take care of population, schools canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cope, hospitals canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cope, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not enough housing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing you can do to have economic development.â&#x20AC;? The Nigerian government is rapidly building infrastructure

but cannot keep up, and some experts worry that it, and other African nations, will not act forcefully enough to rein in population growth. For two decades, the Nigerian government has recommended that families limit themselves to four children, with little effect. Although he acknowledged that more countries were trying to control population, Parfait Eloundou-Enyegue, a professor of development sociology at Cornell University, said â&#x20AC;&#x153;many countries only get religion when faced with food riots or being told they have the highest fertility rate in the world or start worrying about political unrest.â&#x20AC;?

GOP commission hopefuls split on economic plan By Hillary Borrud

ELECTION: DESCHUTES COUNTY COMMISSION

The Bulletin

The two Republicans who want to replace Deschutes County Commissioner Alan Unger agree on many things: The county should push for more logging on federal lands, consolidate government services and redouble the effort to recruit a new county administrator. But Bend City Councilor Tom Greene and home builder Phil Henderson disagree about a signature county economic development program, and whether

Inside • Bios of Greene and Henderson, B2 the county should spend more money to relocate a planned government campus in Redmond. Greene, 58, was elected to the Bend City Council in 2008 with the financial backing of local real estate and building

industries. Greene is a real estate agent and has nearly three decades of experience in the business, according to the city of Bend’s website. Henderson, 57, worked at Sun Forest Construction for eight years, the last four as the company’s president. Henderson said he left the company in February 2011 and now runs his own custom home building business.

to Kriger. “But it would have been iffy.” At 93, Fix is a year older than Endicott and Kriger, her brother. Kriger said his older sister had been sickly as a young child, so she started school a year late, putting them in the same class. It’s not clear how many of the 57 students in the class of 1938 are still alive. One woman living in Bend had hoped to make it Saturday but had to cancel, while another

classmate is believed to be in Arizona, and possibly one more lives in Silver Lake. “There might be more, but we don’t know how to find them,” Fix said. Over lunch, the classmates

The confusion began when the Tumalo Irrigation District began clearing trees along a popular stretch of the Deschutes River Trail on the north side of Bend. At first, city officials said it was OK for the district to topple the trees without a permit. Then, they weren’t so sure. Maybe the irrigation district’s actions violated city codes. Maybe they didn’t. Nobody at the city seemed to have a straight answer. The only person with any conviction was the TID representative, who declared that the rules didn’t apply because “we were there before the city.” In the end, it took the involvement of the city’s two in-house attorneys, Mary Winters and Gary Firestone, to figure out which codes actually applied and whether the irrigation district violated rules in cutting down the trees to protect its 5.5mile underground pipeline. They described their findings in a secret memorandum that Firestone discussed with Bend city councilors during a closed-door meeting on April 4. When the city released the document to The Bulletin after initially denying a public records request, it outlined a convoluted set of rules governing when and where trees may be felled in city limits. “Minor differences in facts can result in a different decision on whether not or it’s allowed,” Firestone said. “In every situation you have to carefully examine the code because there are three different areas you have to look at, and you have to analyze each separately to see if they apply at all, and if they apply, what do they require or prohibit.” Essentially, said Firestone, the city’s tree-cutting restrictions apply in only a small number of circumstances: if a tree is located on city property or within a right-of-way; if new development is taking place on a piece of private property; or if the tree is located in the waterway overlay zone — for instance, if it’s rooted along the Deschutes River. Trees located in “areas of special interest,” which include various buttes and rock outcroppings, also require a review of city codes before they can be cut. If none of these rules apply, Firestone said the city doesn’t have any purview and an individual is allowed to saw away. See Trees / B5

Merrymakers bring out newlyweds with pepper Noise produced by beating on tin cans, plowshares and like din-makers failing to bring out the bride and groom in a charivari given Mr. and Mrs. Edward Street at the Millican ranch on the Bend-

Burns road last Wednesday night, the merrymakers found that cayenne pepper worked excellently. The newlyweds were smoked out in a few minutes. Mr. and Mrs. Street were married here last Wednesday and on the way to their home at Fife lodged for the night at the Millican Inn. A number of other travelers were there and decided to have some fun. Getting together all the implements that would make a noise, they proceeded to serenade the couple, who occupied an upper room. When the bridegroom refused to show himself, the pepper treatment was suggested.

A ladder was placed up to the window, the pepper sprinkled on a shovel-full of live coals and the smoke blown into the bridal chamber. Soon sneezing and coughing was heard inside and in a short time the bride and groom came forth and the crowd was “treated” to cigars and candy. Incidentally, this was the first charivari in that part of the county. According to reports reaching here, there is to be a wedding in the valley not many moons hence.

Rail rates delay action Accompanied by Dr. Thomas S. McDavitt, a noted St. Paul eye and ear special-

ist, and J.E. Hurd, a logging expert, Dr. D.F. Brooks, president of The Bend Company, head of Central Oregon timber-holding organizations and one of the best known lumber and timbermen in the West, arrived Monday night. While admitting that the purpose of his visit, in addition to a general survey of the field, was chiefly to look into matters connected with the establishment of a large lumber mill here. Dr. Brooks would commit himself to little that was definite in the way of mill announcements. “It would not be fair to make any statements that I am not absolutely certain

would be carried out,” said Dr. Brooks, “But this much I will say and gladly: Bend need have no fears regarding the mill situation. There is every physical reason why a plant, and a big one, should be established here. The town is the key for the milling of an enormous body of timber.” It is understood that the peg upon which now hangs local manufacturing upon a large scale is that of eastern freight rates. When these rates are satisfactory, the last serious obstacle will be removed and the mills built. See Yesterday / B2

Commission Continued from B1 The winner of the May 15 Republican primary will face Unger, who was elected in 2008, in the November general election. Unger, who lives in Redmond, initially faced a challenger, too. But Democrat Dallas Brown decided to end his campaign shortly after he filed to run for election in March. Brown’s name will still appear on the May primary ballot. So far in 2012, Greene has raised more than $3,000 and spent nearly $2,000 on his campaign, according to the state campaign finance database. Some of his larger contributions came from the Central Oregon Builders Association and the Central Oregon Association of Realtors. Henderson has raised nearly $5,000 in 2012 and spent approximately $2,600. Most of the larger contributions came from Henderson’s family and money he loaned his campaign.

Redmond campus County commissioners are discussing whether to stick with a plan to open a government campus in Redmond in a building they purchased last year or consider other sites. Greene and Henderson said they would be reluctant to move the project to another location if it would cost more. For years, county officials discussed the idea of a Redmond campus, which would consolidate state and county services such as food stamps, mental health care, family planning and nutrition for low-income mothers and children. The county purchased an upscale commercial building known as the Design Center on U.S. Highway 97 in south Redmond, for $1.4 million last year. County staff estimated it would cost $1 million to $1.5 million to remodel the Design Center. Redmond city officials had hoped the county would move into Evergreen Elementary School, although that appears to be a costlier option. In January, City Manager David Brandt estimated it would cost $6 million to renovate the school. Last month, county

The desert’s story Members of the Bend delegation who drove to Burns recently for the conference with Governor Charles H. Martin and his highway commission found the so-called high desert across juniper covered hills and sage plateaus, in an unusual array. Light rain was falling above the 4,000-foot level; low, dark clouds just grassed the high summits of Pine Mountain, Hampton and Glass Buttes, and over the vast region, reaching to a distance of 70 miles, was a strange coloring. Under the rain clouds, the subdued coloring brought into striking relief topographical details that gave a clue to the ancient history of the region. Under the customary glaring light of the high plateau, the desert generally hides away its old secrets guarding them as treasures of age that reach into that primeval past when semi-tropical forests covered the Hampton highlands. But such is not the case when dark clouds drift over the region. Elevations scarcely noticed in brilliant light come into view, old lava flows whose margins have been eroded by the storms of centuries are noticeable and vast depressions once occupied by huge lakes are brought into relief. One of the most striking of these old lake beds is in the vicinity of Hampton, and members of the Bend group who made the recent trip to Burns under the heavy storm clouds were amazed to discover that even the shorelines of Lake Hampton were visible and that a nearly perpendicular rim of basalt to the northeast graphically told the story of the man-

commissioners said they were reconsidering whether the Design Center is the right location. Greene did not provide specifics on how he would handle the Redmond situation. However, Greene said he’s learned to approach municipal land deals with skepticism, based on the city of Bend’s experience with the 3-acre parcel at the corner of Olney Avenue and Wall Street it purchased for $4.78 million in 2005. The plan was to build a new city hall on the site, but the need for more space evaporated after several rounds of city layoffs and the city tried unsuccessfully to sell the property at a loss. Greene pointed out that he was not on the city council at the time of the purchase. “I think people forget what happened in the past,” Greene said. “If they think they got such a great deal, put it back on the market,” Greene said of the Design Center. “I don’t know why they’d be reconsidering now. Evergreen sounds too expensive.” Unlike Greene, Henderson said he would be willing to move the campus downtown, where Evergreen is located. But he also expressed reluctance to spend more money to change the location now. “It seemed some of the

ner that ancient lake came into existence: A great earth fault developed, the old drainage system was blocked by the rock barrier and runoff from the Hampton uplift filled the depression to a depth of probably 60 feet. Lake Hampton, on whose ancient shoreline the ghost town of Imperial stood some 20 years ago, was probably 20 miles long in its flush days. It disappeared long ago, probably when the vast lakes of south-central Oregon started shrinking. The dull light of rainy days on the generally dry plateau also distinctly outline the vents of old volcanoes — thundering cones of the remote past from which lava flowed to build the misstate highlands and cover for eternities the underlying sedimentary formations that hold records of sequoia forests.

Nazis call upon German hens to aid fatherland “We request that every hen lay between 130 and 140 eggs a year,” announced the Nazi party news agency today. Present production is 90 eggs a hen. In making its “request” the agency advised farmers to get hens of the Aryan sort. “The increase can not be achieved by the bastard hens which now populate the German farms,” said the agency. “Slaughter those undesirables and replace them with hens which the chicken farmers’ organization have found to be the most efficient.”

second-guessing was that it wasn’t in the downtown center of Redmond, that the Redmond people have been in favor of,” Henderson said. “It seems it’s a locational issue now and I don’t know why that wasn’t covered before. I kind of agree with being towards ... central Redmond because it would be easier for people.”

Consolidation of services Both Henderson and Greene said they favor consolidating local and possibly state government services. Henderson did not specify which services it would make sense to combine. “There’s been a lot of talk of equipment services as something that’s realistic,” Henderson said. Henderson believes it will be challenging for the county to keep up with cost increases, but he also wants to shrink the amount of property tax revenue the county collects. He said county officials should consider charging less than the full county tax rate. The county has not raised its tax rate recently, but tax bills nonetheless increase when a property owner’s taxable assessed value goes up. “I think it’s a real hardship on underemployed people,” Henderson said.

was the first such birth in this country in 43 years. Belle, a ten-year-old Siamese elephant, gave birth to the wee, grey baby this morning in the elephant house. Three other female elephants were present, and one of them, Pet, tried to attack the baby. Zoo director Jack Marks and other attendants grabbed hooks to steer the three to separate quarters. Then Marks, who has paced the floor with Belle for many days and nights during the past two months, collapsed and was rushed by ambulance to a hospital. Hospital attendants said he probably would remain one day. They say he was exhausted and was suffering from a strained shoulder muscle. Belle and the baby were doing fine. The baby estimated at 175 pounds, tottered to its feet within ten minutes and started nursing within a half hour. Belle nuzzled it affectionately as it weaved through the straw and hid between her legs, wiggling its 18 inch trunk. Belle gave all signs of being a protective mother and zoo attendants kept their distance. The last recorded elephant birth in this country was April 29, 1918 when the old circus elephant Princess Alice, gave birth to a baby at Salt Lake City. That baby died. Its death was believed to be the result of its inability to digest cow’s milk after the mother refused to nurse it.

Greene said he’s interested in consolidating an array of local and state government services, but his primary focus would be on consolidating the eight fire districts in Deschutes County. “We have several fire departments and they do seem to work, but with that you have management, overhead ... and then we’re sitting here with all east county not covered at all,” Greene said. Two homes in Alfalfa have burned down in the four years since Greene was elected to the city council, he said. Greene said that if officials begin working now to combine fire departments, it could take 10 to 15 years to complete the task. He hopes it would save money that the districts could use to extend fire protection to Alfalfa and other eastern areas. “It’s hard to give up a fire department or a police department, such a major visible part of a city,” Greene said. “But then, can we service the constituents better, that’s what needs to be answered.”

County administrator Greene and Henderson said they have been surprised at the difficulty the county encountered in recruiting the right candidate for county administrator. County commissioners voted 2-1 in August to fire former County Administrator Dave Kanner. Unger voted against Kanner’s termination. Kanner received a severance of roughly $118,000 under an employment agreement. Since then, officials have struggled to find a replacement. The opening drew roughly 50 applicants, but county commissioners decided in March that none of the applicants was right for the job. Greene said he would have done more planning before firing the county administrator. “It seems it was a spur-ofthe-moment, off-the-cuff thing, and there wasn’t any planning or forethought of what you do once you take action,” Greene said of the commissioners’ decision. “Of course, some of the statements that were made after Dave (Kanner) was let go didn’t make it any easier to find somebody.”

Belle two months ago sparked round-the-clock elephant house vigils when she started giving false birth alarms. She carried the baby for 633 days. Two of the elephants present at this mornings birth — Rosy and Tui Hoa — also are expecting. Sex of the baby was not immediately known. It was up to Belle’s owner, Morgan Berry of Seattle, when she and the baby would make their first public appearance. Berry, who raised Belle at his Seattle home, said he planned to raise the baby to adulthood. He did not say where. Dr. Mathew Mayberry, Belle’s veterinarian was present for the birth. Thonglaw, the ill-tempered father, remained in isolation for the time being. He has been kept away from the public because the male elephant has a temper and can be dangerous.

Both Henderson and Greene said they would lobby federal lawmakers for legislation to allow more logging on federal lands. They disagreed on whether one of the county’s economic development initiatives, a forgivable business loan program, is effective. Greene applauded the county’s forgivable business loan program, which provides small loans to businesses that pledge to add jobs in the area. The county drew most of the $300,000 for the program from its general fund after receiving more foreclosure-related revenue than expected, and it added more money in July to bring the fund’s balance back up to $300,000. “I think if entities can have a fund like that and support it, I think it’s fantastic,” Greene said. Henderson said it’s not the role of county commissioners to administer an economic development program. “I just don’t think that’s part of the job description or the background to be picking winners and losers in business,” Henderson said. “As a business owner, I don’t really understand how they’re prioritizing the best economic opportunities. ... I’m not really in favor of using taxpayers’ money, setting aside taxpayers’ money, to loan to businesses.”

Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery on the Metolius River. The excited anglers lined up around a pond at the hatchery. The skies were bright and clear, and dozens of large rainbow, brook and brown trout could be seen lurking in the shallow pond. A few lunkers looked as if they would weigh in at 7 or 8 pounds. The scene was enough to make any angler lick his lips in anticipation, and Opportunity Center client Joe Matters was no exception. “Let’s get those big fish!” shouted Matters. “C’mere, you big suckers!” Four volunteers from the Redmond Fire Department had brought enough poles and fishing equipment to outfit the Opportunity Center’s anglers. A number of Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife employees were also on hand. The volunteer helped each of the fishermen get started, and predictably , the early action was hot and heavy. A rainbow approaching five pounds nailed Matters’ bait, bending his rod nearly double as he hollered for help. “I got one! I got one!” Matters yelled as he hung on to his arched fishing rod. A volunteer fireman finally netted the bright fish, but it was a few

minutes before Matters was able to calm down enough to cast a second time. Meanwhile most of the other anglers also were hooking fish, and within the first hour the group had caught several dozen, using barbless hooks. They were fishing in the so called “settling pond”, built at the hatchery to trap sediment and other wastes from the hatchery before the water is returned to the river. The pond is chock full of semi-wild trout that escaped from the hatchery. The Opportunity Center clients were given the chance to fish there because the Redmond Fire Department had asked hatchery officials for about 100 trout to be stocked at “Fireman’s Lake,” a small pond in Redmond opened to fishing each year for children and the handicapped. Rather than simply net the fish at the hatchery and take them to Fireman’s Lake, the fire department and ODFW officials decided to allow the Opportunity Center clients to catch the fish.

Greene said he agreed with county commissioners’ decision to hire a recruitment firm, at an estimated cost of $20,000, to handle a second administrator search. “If you get the right (firm), they’re going to be able to solicit applications, they’re going to know who out there has the qualifications you’re looking for,” Greene said. Henderson said he wondered whether county officials have done a good job of “selling” the job to potential candidates. “Part of hiring is selling yourself, the attributes of the area, and I imagine they’re doing that but they need to do as good as they can,” Henderson said.

He’ll need surgery on both shoulders, and possibly both elbows, because of a number of problems he’s had with them. The ligaments in his knees have snapped like overextended rubber bands, so they’re pretty much shot, and that was before he needed microfracture surgery. He’s cracked his ribs a couple of times and broken his tailbone twice. And then there are the runof-the-mill injuries — the broken fingers and ankles. As he lists the injuries, he holds a crutch. He needs it. Two weeks ago, during a match, he felt a burning sensation shooting up his leg. The ouch-factor doesn’t faze him, he says, because it’s all part of wrestling. “Honestly, it’s all about how much you love what you do,” he says. None of the 10 guys at the March 25 match would have come if they didn’t love it, he says. Most of these guys have lives outside of wrestling, he says, because wrestling in small towns is not a moneymaking enterprise. Instead, they travel around from city to city because they like the competition. But if there’s one near-universal reason why these wrestlers do what they do, it’s because they grew up watching Portland Wrestling. Before professional wrestling went big-time in the 1980s and 1990s with the World Wrestling Federation, Portland Wrestling was king locally. The popular league televised matches regionally since the 1950s, and some top names came through the regional circuit, including Rowdy Roddy Piper, who went on to act in movies. After that, though, wres-

Motorist saves woman trapped in burning car PORTLAND — A young woman whose car flipped onto its side and caught fire in Portland says she’s grateful to the passing motorist who stopped and pulled her from the vehicle. Police say 21-year-old Jerusalem Dimbore fell asleep at the wheel and crashed Thursday night. She said her seat belt was holding her up. Shawn Stevenson says he and his family were on their way to visit their grandmother when he saw the car flipped on its side. He says Dimbore was trapped inside and pounding on the windows as flames began to erupt. He smashed a back window with a hammer that a neighbor tossed to him. Then he pulled Dimbore from the burning car. She escaped with only minor cuts and bruises.

Museum considers ousted UO president PORTLAND — The University of Oregon’s ousted president is the top candidate to lead

The Field Museum, a natural history center in Chicago. Museum spokeswoman Nancy O’Shea says the board of trustees will decide Tuesday whether to name Richard Lariviere its president and chief executive. Lariviere is a Sanskrit scholar and longtime college administrator who was hired to lead the University of Oregon in 2009. The State Board of Higher Education fired him in November, saying his fight to advance Oregon’s flagship university was harmful to the state’s other campuses.

Woman found dead after duplex fire MEDFORD — Police in the southern Oregon community of Central Point say a 70-yearold woman was found dead after a house fire. Officers said fire crews found the body of Joyce Esposito on Friday in a smokefilled duplex. The cause of death was not immediately known. Jackson County Fire District No. 3 spokesman Don Hickman says the interior of

the home was deeply charred, although there was little flame, leading firefighters to believe that the fire had been smoldering for some time.

Albany coach accused of sex with student SALEM — Authorities in Marion County say a high school coach accused of having sex with a student over a three-year period has been arrested on rape and sodomy charges. The Statesman Journal reports that 41-year-old Scott Leonard Zeigler appeared in court Friday and a judge set bail at $35,000. His next scheduled court appearance is April 20. It was not known if he was represented by a lawyer. He was arrested Thursday. Detectives say Zeigler works at West Albany High School in a program for troubled students and as a coach for several teams. They said the charges involved a female student at Jefferson High School, where the man was head coach of the girls basketball team from 2008 to 2010. — From wire reports

tling went mainstream and regional circuits went away. Wrestlers in general hold Vince McMahon — the owner of WWE, which exploded in popularity in the 1980s under its previous name WWF — in very low esteem. He stole performers who were working regional wrestling circuits, bought up national television time and ramped up the silliness to previously unheard of levels of gauche sensationalism, wrestlers say. Jaime says the time has come to move to a new location. That means there will be no April show in Astoria, he adds. He doesn’t want to leave the region entirely, however. He’s looking at renting a permanent space in Astoria for performances, at which he could also open a studio and train aspiring wrestlers Barring that, he says he may start holding quarterly events at the Clatsop County Fairgrounds. Whatever happens, though, he plans to keep grappling.

PORTLAND — The Portland Loo might be the most loved public toilet — not that there’s much competition. A lack of adequate public restrooms is an old complaint in cities across America. The bathrooms, when you can find one, are often filthy and smelly, and a magnet for drug users and vandals. Businesses such as McDonald’s and Starbucks often serve as the restroom of last resort. Big cities from New York to San Francisco have bought high-tech, selfcleaning automatic toilets, with mixed results. In one high-profile failure, Seattle installed five such toilets in 2004 — at a cost of $5 million — only to sell them on eBay four years later because of problems with drug use and prostitution. Meanwhile, the much cheaper Portland Loo maintains a Facebook page and has 202 followers on Twitter. The five downtown toilets average about 200 flushes each per day. And, unlike toilets in other cities, have not drawn a torrent of criticism about foul smells and rampant crime. Now Portland is trying to sell its patented loo to other cities. The city has sold one to Victoria, British Columbia, and now hopes contracting with agents who make a commission will generate more sales. “We can ship them to

somebody for $99,000 and all they have to do is bolt them onto their sidewalk and hook them up to sewer and water,” said City Commissioner Randy Leonard, who originated the idea for the loo after Portland had its own publicized failure with public bathrooms. The solar-powered Portland Loo costs about $60,000 to manufacture, and the annual maintenance is $12,000 apiece. The drab, durable structures stand 10 feet tall and have open slots that expose a standing person’s head and feet, allowing police to check for lawbreakers. The metallic-gray finish is resistant to graffiti. A tiny faucet for hand washing is outside. A worker cleans the loos twice a day. The toilets were designed with the assumption that people would try to ruin them. Vandals have busted the locks and the flush button, but even the first loo installed in 2008 remains in pretty good shape. “The whole idea behind it was to design it not as this beautiful, aesthetic piece of work and then be aghast if somebody did something bad to it,” Leonard said. “We designed it anticipating all of that.” The cities of San Diego and Anchorage, Alaska, have expressed interest in buying the loo.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OO O

ASTORIA — A neon light casts a gray tinge on the crumbling basement walls of the Astoria Event Center, and chatter emanates from a cavernous room at the bottom of a stark staircase. It’s nearing show time above as a small, die-hard group of wrestling fans filters into the building to watch the spectacle. Below, signs of glitz and glamour are sparse amid the junked items propped against walls or disposed of on the ground. Glamour, as it suits a small-scale professional wrestling operation, can be found only in the suitcases carried by the performers who will take the ring in an hour. Inside, there are Lycra outfits — stretchy and brightly colored — sequined props and makeup. For years, wrestlers from around the Pacific Northwest have traveled to Astoria to participate in matches put on by Pacific Northwest Professional Wrestling. In part, the league was born out of Portland Wrestling, one of the top regional wrestling circuits in America during the 1970s and 1980s. Known for their highflying shows, the performers in the Astoria Event Center basement exhibit a different side of professional wrestling prior to the action. In the subterranean world, it’s wrestlers in repose. Once they’ve changed into their outfits, men with muscles bulging from beneath Spandex sit on green plastic lounge chairs, drinking sodas. They have names like Homeboy Quiz, Draven, Deevaa and The Ideal Reflection. Off in a corner, alone, wrestler Gentleman George Michael, a middle-aged half Englishman bedecked in Union Jack clothing, tapes off his wrists and laces up his Doc Martens boots. Elsewhere, Roger Jaime, the owner of Pacific Northwest Professional Wrestling, frets about the show. The matches’ referee never showed up. Neither did the lighting guy. He’d have to be replaced by a family member. One wrestler backed out at the last second; a replacement had to be brought in. And topping things off: There weren’t as many fans seated above as Jaime had hoped. The performance would likely be PNPW’s last at the Astoria Event Center, where Jaime’s rotating troupe has performed wrestling exhibitions once a month since the mid-2000s. At the time the wrestlers didn’t know it would be their last show.

The Associated Press

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Experience the Beltone Difference. O OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO O

The Daily Astorian

Jaime, who also wrestles under the name C.C. Poison, would come to that conclusion only later. Sitting in his private dressing room, resembling a bunker, the 47-year-old Jaime reflected on what keeps him coming back to perform all the sleeper-holds, flying kicks and trash talk necessary to be a good wrestler. “I get really scared before, and I always ask myself the same question: ‘Why am I still doing this? Why do I put myself through worrying about whether people will be here or not be here?’ ” he says. “All of that I feel until I go out on stage, and then it all goes away.” Jaime has been wrestling professionally for about 15 years. He got his start in the Portland Wrestling scene in the 1990s before buying the rights to the Pacific Northwest Professional Wrestling name nearly a decade ago and bringing his shows first to Rainier and then to Astoria. Professional wrestling is theatrical, after all, and as much as performers wrestle, they also improvise loosely scripted scenes with each other. The scenes create a story line and add drama. There are good guys and bad guys, and the audience reacts accordingly. Goading the audience into reacting is a skill wrestlers hone over the years, typically by working the microphone in the ring, where they deliver impassioned monologues to the audience. After the rest of the audience has filed into the event center and the wrestlers have prepped down below, the show begins. Lights pulsate and music blares. There were five matches total during the March 25 show, concluding with a showdown for the first PNPW title. The small audience is riled up. So when The Ideal Reflection Chris Rysek saunters out from behind the curtain, the crowd starts heaping abuse on him. In the world of PNPW wrestling, he’s a bad guy. With large muscles, sequined sunglasses and a bejeweled vanity mirror he carries around, a shirtless Rysek exudes arrogance. His entrance receives a cascade of boos and, in typical professional wrestling form, he begins to verbally abuse the audience, insulting them for being fat. “Look at you, sir,” he says, pointing out a man in the audience. “You are a prime example. You could probably lose 10 pounds if you would just take a bath once in a while.” With so much verbal interplay between the wrestlers

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

Thelma Marie (Foss) Larrance Long-time Central Oregon resident, Thelma Marie (Foss) Larrance, of Madras, passed away April 8, 2012 of subdural hematoma sustained in a fall. She had lived with dementia for many years. Thelma was born in Washington State to Florence (Dahl) and Edward Foss. She lived most of her early years in Portland attending Grant High school. She married Gerald Larrance in 1942. She and her new in-laws traveled cross country by car to see him before he shipped out to Europe, not seeing him again until after the war ended. She worked for the Portland School District during these years. She had a son, Erich Larrance in April 1947 and later that year, they moved to Central Oregon, living out Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Neil Way. She lived on a farm/ranch a mile from the road with no water and no electricity for eight years. They started a business working with Redmond Rendering Plant and raised cattle and pigs. They moved to Culver in 1961, starting a cow/calf and hay operation. They belonged to Grey Butte Grange and ran cattle on Grey Butte and in the Hampton Butte Range area. She worked as a bookkeeper at Ochoco Lumber for many years. She stopped traveling to Prineville every work day to work when she had a car accident where she sustained a neck injury. Following the accident, she took a more active participation in the ranch work. It was not uncommon to walk into their house and see calves laying in the utility room or kitchen by the fire being nursed to health. She was always outside in all kinds of weather, doctoring sick cattle, making sure operations were running as she saw fit, whether it be arranging cattle drives or getting hay loaded or cattle fed. She also had many goats that she cared for over a period of time. There were always dogs and tens, if not seemingly hundreds, of barn cats thriving in the sheds and barns. She was proficient in knitting and darning the myriad of socks needed by a thriving enterprise. She and Gerald also sponsored foster children including two â&#x20AC;&#x153;boat childrenâ&#x20AC;? from Vietnam in the later 1960s. She was preceded in death by her parents; sister; husband, in 1982; and son, in 2007. She is survived by two nieces and four nephews. She lived at East Cascade Living Community the last five years. The family wants to express their thankfulness that such an organization exists in Jefferson County. They have been very helpful and went way beyond normal caregivers in their caring and thoughtfulness in taking care of Thelma in these final years.

Miles of coastline In California, economic gap pits East vs. West to be preserved, opened to public By Jennifer Medina

New York Times News Service

By Tony Barboza Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — A spectacular stretch of Northern California coastline that includes oceanside bluffs, beaches, rolling hills and redwood groves will be permanently protected from development under a landmark deal approved this week by the state Coastal Commission. The 6,800 acres of undeveloped shoreline, wooded areas and farmland in northern Santa Cruz County — known as Coast Dairies — will be transferred to the state and federal government, which will operate it as open space and preserve portions for agriculture. Much of the land will be opened to the public. The coastal panel’s unani-

mous vote at a meeting Thursday in Ventura, Calif., protects 7½ miles of coastline that had been one of the three largest pieces of private coastal property between the Golden Gate Bridge and the Mexican border, according to the agency. The 10-square-mile expanse, former Spanish land grants that were acquired by Swiss farming families in the 1860s, was purchased by the Trust For Public Land in 1998 as rumors swirled that developers had plans to build homes there. “This is important, an incredible part of the Central California coast that’s going to be retained in the form it was years and years ago,” said Dan Carl, the commission’s Central Coast District director.

Francis Kriger, left, and Everett Endicott, both 92, talk at their unofficial 1938 Redmond Union High School reunion Saturday.

Reunion Continued from B1 Kriger stayed on the family farm off the Old Bend Redmond Highway until he was nearly 30. He headed for Tillamook to continue farming and then to Eastern Oregon, where he worked as a carpenter for 28 years. For the past several years, he’s lived near Phoenix. Endicott enlisted in the Air Force shortly before the start of World War II. A pilot, he came back to Redmond at the end of the war but was recalled to duty when fighting broke out in Korea. He decided to make a career out of the Air Force, traveling around

Week Continued from B1 “At a time when the share of national income flowing to the top one percent of people in this country has climbed to levels we haven’t seen since the 1920s, these same folks are paying taxes at one of the lowest rates in 50 years,” Obama said Wednesday. “In fact, one in four millionaires pays a lower tax rate than millions of hardworking middle-class households. And while many millionaires do pay their fair share, some take advantage of loopholes and shelters that let them get away with paying no income taxes whatsoever — and that’s all perfectly legal under the system that we currently have.” With legislation sponsored by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., that would codify Obama’s “rule” pending, the White House is pushing for a vote on Monday immediately after Congress returns from the break. While it is not clear that the Democrats would have the 60 votes needed to override the threat of a Republican filibuster, the administration hopes to force GOP members into public votes on the issue during an election year. On Friday, Gallup released a poll that indicated that 60 percent of Americans support the Buffett Rule while 37 percent opposed it. At the same time, the White House tried to contrast its “everyone should pay their fair share” plan with the budget released by Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., which seeks to trim the deficit by slashing entitlement spending. On Wednesday, White House officials released state-by-state breakdowns of the effects of the Ryan budget on various programs. According to the White House’s calculations, Ryan’s budget would have the following effects: • 58,800 Oregonians would be removed from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in 2013.

the world and retiring at the close of the Vietnam War. He still lives in Redmond, where his son George is the mayor. Along with her husband, Fix spent 29 years operating a trailer park that once sat within view of their lunch table Saturday. When they opened the Riverview Trailer Court, it was well outside of town, Fix recalled. By the mid-1980s, the city was on their doorstep, and developers bought them out to build the Shilo Inn motel. “When we bought it, it was just rocks and sagebrush,” said Fix, who still lives in Bend. “Everyone thought my husband was crazy to buy that land.” — Reporter: 541-383-0387, shammers@bendbulletin.com

• 11,878 Oregon students would not receive Pell Grants, which would decrease by an average of $820 for those who did receive them. • 31,500 Oregonians would be dropped from the Women, Infants and Children program that provides food and services for lowincome women and children. There was Republican pushback against the administration’s efforts to set the tone in Washington. “With millions out of work, gas at nearly $4 a gallon, and the election still seven months away, Republicans are calling on the President to join us in support of the dozens of jobs and energy bills that have passed the House but are stalled in the Democrat-led Senate,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell told Politico. “We should be focused on jobs and energy legislation that can pass — not tax-hike show-votes designed to fail.” — Andrew Clevenger, The Bulletin

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. — For decades, California has been seen nationally and by its own residents as a state divided into north and south, the urbane tree-huggers of the north versus the carobsessed beach hoppers of the south. But the more meaningful division, it turns out, may be between east and west. Communities all along the state’s coastline have largely bounced back from the recession, some even prospering with high-tech and export businesses growing and tourism coming back. At the same time, communities from just an hour’s drive inland and stretching all the way to the Nevada and Arizona borders struggle with stubbornly high unemployment and a persistent housing crisis. And the same pattern holds the length of the state, from Oregon to the Mexican frontier. “This is really a tale of two economies,” said Stephen Levy, the director of the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy. “The coastal areas are either booming or at least doing well, and the areas that were devastated still have a long way to go. The places that existed just for housing are not going to come back anytime soon.” Nick DePasquale, who runs a Ford car dealership here, can see it clearly. When he looks at the sales figures for dealerships less than 100 miles away, DePasquale sees signs of hope. Sales are up, if not

Trees Continued from B1 “Generally, if development is anticipated we’re going to be interested in tree removal,” he said. “If it’s George Washington chopping down the cherry tree in his backyard ... we’re not going to care.” In TID’s case, the trees were in the waterway overlay zone, but the city found that removal was necessary to protect the $15 million pipeline from roots that could crack through the lining and cause leakage. But Bend City Councilor Jim Clinton thinks this is a narrow reading of the city’s codes and said the backand-forth about what’s allowed means the city needs to adjust its rules to make them understandable to the average citizen. “All ordinances have to be clearly written so reasonable people can all agree to the extent possible on what they mean. And any interpretations of what they mean should be open to the public,” Clinton said. “You get into a really awful situation when people interpret it different ways and when the city’s own interpretation is a little murky and secret. It’s all supposed to be clear and objective.” Clinton said the council should discuss implementing a new, umbrella ordinance that would dictate when a tree should be chopped down.

Along the coast of California, communities have largely bounced back from the recession, but inland areas are still struggling with high unemployment and a persistent housing crisis.

drastically, at least enough to show that more people there are trading in their aging vehicles for spiffier models. But when he glances at his own bottom line, the reality is grim. Less than five years ago, he was selling 300 cars a month. These days, the number rarely budges above 75. Even if customers come in looking to buy, few of them are able to get a loan approved, if their credit is pockmarked with defaults and foreclosures. “We’re trying to climb out of the depths, but we were about the first in this mess and it looks like we will be the last ones out,” DePasquale said. “There aren’t enough people feeling good enough to buy a new car around here.” Asked if he could imagine anything changing soon, he let out a little chuckle and said, “The hottest-selling thing in this city is a $5,000 used car, and we don’t have a lot of those on this lot.” San Bernardino County, which with Riverside County makes up what is known as the Inland Empire, a sprawling area now scattered with vacant homes built in the past

decade, posted an unemployment rate of 12.6 percent in March. Compared with Orange County, on the more prosperous, western side of California’s vertical divide with an unemployment rate of 8 percent, it can feel like another world. During the boom times, many middle-class workers who lived along the coast moved east, eager to gobble up affordable housing in exchange for a difficult commute. By some estimates, roughly a third of working adults who live in the Inland Empire worked in neighboring coastal counties. “During the first part of the century, when things were booming again, we saw the coastal areas moving inland and there was a lot of discussion about how jobs would follow,” said Hans Johnson, a researcher with the Public Policy Institute of California who has studied the widening disparities between east and west. “But people were just following the building of roofs, so what you end up with in a bust, areas that were dependent on growth suffer tremendously when it dries up.”

The differences between the west and east are not limited to the economy; several studies have shown that the coastal areas are more politically liberal than their inland counterparts. New environmental laws, for example, may be embraced in cities focused on preserving the beach but viewed as anathema to some inland political leaders who see regulations as a path to driving businesses out of the state. Perhaps no other politician exemplifies the divide better than Jeff Stone, a conservative Riverside County supervisor who last summer proposed legislation to split off his county and 12 others to form a 51st state, South California. Many leaders in the state ignore his area’s plight, he said. “I’m not optimistic to think that our beauty is enough to sell Southern California,” Stone said. “Here we see nothing but more chain restaurants because the mom-and-pop places can’t make it anymore. The folks in Sacramento just have their hands out and don’t realize how much we are struggling.”

For instance, if a tree is located in someone’s front yard, but is along a highly traveled street, should the property owner be allowed to cut it down without any input from the city? What if it’s a 100-year-old ponderosa pine? Or some other native species? What if it’s endangered? “I think that’s a perfectly good topic for the City Council because trees are important for the majority of people who live here,” Clinton said. “I’m a libertarian, so I’m never in favor of real onerous rules. But on the other hand, you have to have some rules because people’s selfish interests are at odds with the public’s interests.” The City Council discussed adopting an ordinance in 2006 to preserve trees in Bend. It was part of a yearslong discussion that eventually fizzled. That ordinance would have required a permit for anyone who wanted to cut down pine trees 10 inches or greater in diameter, trees on the Deschutes County Historical Society inventory or 50-year-old trees located in the historic district. Mayor Jeff Eager agrees

with Clinton that the city needs to review the rules to clear up confusion regarding tree clearing. He added that he’s a little apprehensive about going any further than that. “Quite clearly the city staff had a misunderstanding one way or another for how to interpret the code,” Eager said. “I’d be in favor of taking a look at the code for the purpose of clarifying it. ... At this point,

I’m not excited about any kind of additional regulation for what people can do on their property.” — Reporter: 541-633-2160, ngrube@bendbulletin.com

• History teacher collects memorabilia, shares stories from doomed cruise liner PENDLETON — Not many have a bigger case of Titanic fever than John Lamoreau. One hundred years after the mammoth cruise ship grazed an iceberg and sank in frigid Atlantic waters, Lamoreau remains captivated by the disaster, which killed more than 1,500 people. The La Grande High School history teacher and former Union County commissioner collected hundreds of items related to the sinking over the past few decades. He owns a slat from one of Titanic’s chairs, letters and clothing from passengers, photographs, documents, “Titanic” movie props and hundreds of other items. The Titanic saga first mesmerized Lamoreau at age 10 when he read “A Night to Remember,” by Walter Lord. “It was life and love, death and agony — all rolled together,” Lamoreau said. “The incredible nobility that showed itself that night has rarely been seen since.” He doesn’t have to think long to offer an example of a passenger who faced death with courage and grace. Take Ida Strauss, wife of Isidor Strauss, owner of R.H. Macy & Co. “Mrs. Strauss refused to get into a lifeboat,” he said. “She said to her husband, ‘We’ve lived together for many years. Where you go, I go.’ ” She sent her maid in her place, after wrapping a fur around the woman. The couple went down with the ship. Many others acted bravely, he said. The ship’s musicians and electricians continued doing their jobs until the end. One of America’s richest men, John Jacob Astor, helped load his pregnant wife into a lifeboat before dying in the 28-degree sea. Every piece of Lamoreau’s Titanic memorabilia has a story.

YOSEMITE

MINUS THE CROWDS Photos courtesy Barb Gonzalez

The breathtaking view of Yosemite Valley from Inspiration Point, just above Tunnel View on the Wawona Road, is known around the world. To the left is El Capitan; to the right, Bridalveil Fall tumbles down a cliff; and nine miles away, Half Dome turns its face toward the valley.

• It may be a little chilly in spring, but the grandeur of the national park isn’t diminished in the off-season By John Gottberg Anderson • For the Bulletin YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. — The park newspaper described the hike as one of “moderate” difficulty.

Bend theater is in danger of closing the curtains for good By David Jasper The Bulletin

Early last week, Brad Hills, co-founder and executive artistic director of Innovation Theatre Works, sent an email to supporters with an ominous subject line, “Don’t let Waiting for Godot be our last show!” It was no idle threat. A promising 50 people saw the April 5 preview of “Waiting for Godot,” by Samuel Beckett, but the following three performances during its opening

weekend, April 6-8, drew a total of just 39 to the 100-seat theater on Division Street in Bend. The matinee show on Easter was a particular disappointment, Hills said, drawHills ing an audience of just four; that’s one fewer than is in the cast. “Granted, it was Easter and I probably shouldn’t have been

doing a show … but I think there’s a lot of people who don’t even pay any attention to Easter,” he said. In “Waiting for Godot,” Beckett’s absurdist classic, Vladimir and Estragon famously await Godot, who never arrives; Hills awaits an audience, which had better show if he’s to keep the theater running. “This has been a really bad opening weekend, and so it’s a little scary,” he told The Bulletin.

In the email, he wrote, “Unless we can average at least 50 sold tickets per show over the remaining ten performances of Waiting for Godot, we will be forced to close our doors.” “It really could (close),” Hills told The Bulletin. “I currently don’t have rent for this month.” “Godot” comes on the heels of another underperformer, the dark comedy “Mr. Marmalade,” which ran in March and went over budget. See Theater / C7

If you go What: “Waiting for Godot” When: 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays through April 21; 2 p.m. Sundays through April 22. Where: Innovation Theatre Works, 1155 S.W. Division St., Bend Cost: $20, $18 students and seniors Contact: www.innovationtw.org or 541-504-6721

Correction In the “Beaubien” anniversary announcement, which appeared Sunday, April 8, on Page C6, Mr. Beaubien’s former occupation was incorrect. He owned a dairy farm in Michigan. The corrected milestone appears on Page C6.

SUNDAY, APRIL 15, 2012 â&#x20AC;˘ THE BULLETIN

A & A

Thoughtful gifts convey thanks for hospitality Dear Abby: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m confused about the protocol in thanking or repaying someone after staying several nights at their home. My feeling is, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re staying with people, the nicest way to thank them for their hospitality is to pay for most, if not all, of the lunches and dinners you share with them when you dine out. That way, you lessen the monetary burden of your visit, and it gives you a chance to say â&#x20AC;&#x153;thank youâ&#x20AC;? for the use of their home. Some visitors seem to think that when they come to your home, you should not only put them up, but also pay for all their activities while you show them your town. What is correct? Or is it a matter of preference? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Visiting from Phoenix Dear Visiting: According to Emily Post, when a guest stays overnight, a nice bottle of wine would be a proper gift if you know your hosts drink and their preference. If there are children in the household, a game they can all enjoy or candy might be nice. If you will be staying longer, she suggests a picture frame with a photo taken during your visit sent afterward, a houseplant in a decorative pot, hand towels or beach towels. And I agree with you that treating your host(s) to a nice dinner during your visit would be gracious and thoughtful. Dear Abby: One of my best supervisors is in a same-sex relationship. She and her partner are raising three wonderful children from previous marriages. I have introduced them to my husband at the office as well as work-related social events. He says he â&#x20AC;&#x153;hatesâ&#x20AC;? them because he believes their relationship broke up their marriages and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong to raise their children this way. When he encounters them he refuses to acknowledge them and will snarl when near them. Neither of them have done anything to deserve this treatment,

DEAR A B B Y and it makes me embarrassed and ashamed of him. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tried to reason with him â&#x20AC;&#x201D; nothing works. I told him flat out he can have his opinions, but I expect him to treat them with respect. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m to the point where I have to attend work-related functions alone and not allow him to come to my office. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one solution, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still upset about his attitude in general. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Upset in Texas Dear Upset: I suspect that your husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reason for â&#x20AC;&#x153;hatingâ&#x20AC;? your supervisor has less to do with the fact that she and her partner ended their marriages, and more to do with knee-jerk homophobia. Children who are raised in happy homes do better than those who are raised in a household filled with unresolved tension. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change your husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attitude, and neither can you. Only he can do that, but enlightenment isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t likely to be achieved until he recognizes a need for it. P.S. His manners are atrocious, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re right to keep him apart from your work environment. Dear Abby: Due to a health problem that caused some of my hair to break and fall out, I have recently begun wearing a wig. At a social function a woman who was not a friend of mine approached me and asked if I was wearing a hairpiece. How could I respond to such a rude question without admitting that I am wearing a wig? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Stumped in Pennsylvania Dear Stumped: Try this: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll forgive you for asking that question if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll forgive me for not answering.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Sunday, April 15, 2012 By Jacqueline Bigar This year you experience a lot of pressure in your life. You often feel as though others are working against you. They simply have different views and choose to express them. Be grateful for their honesty. If you are single, you could meet someone who professes friendship but acts in quite a romantic fashion. Be sure you can deal with this behavior before you jump in. If you are attached, the friendship that exists between you becomes even more important. Do not allow insecurity to develop. Be open about your feelings. Romance will intensify because of a new level of trust. AQUARIUS is very nurturing, but in an intellectual manner. The Stars Show the Kind of Day Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Look at your expectations. Could they be the reason that you sometimes feel let down? Expectations help create dreams, but they also might cause a downer or two. A partner or family member explains his or her feelings. Remember, this person has been off-kilter for a while. Tonight: Remain sensitive to others. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH If you feel a little tired, take a hard look at what you have done as of late. You cannot be everywhere all the time. Make Sunday your day to do whatever you must. Tonight: Make it early. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Keep reaching out for that stubborn person who is standing on ceremony. Eventually he or she will respond and realize that the situation is not desirable. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not involved with taxes, opt for listening to some music and spending time with friends. Tonight: Go for something exotic. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Resist getting into a tango with a partner or the IRS. Just do what you must. Some of you might decide to spend your money differently after taking a look at what you spend and why. Tonight: Chill out. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Tension builds around a key person. He or she seems to be in a dark mood â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or is that you? Lighten up the moment; a somber attitude gets you nowhere fast. Take a walk or drive to revive your spirit, or accept

someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s invitation. Tonight: Go along with othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plans. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Understand your role in facilitating someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day. Sometimes, when you do too much, resentfulness comes out. Juggle your needs with this personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. A child or new friend loves to have your attention. Learn to say â&#x20AC;&#x153;no.â&#x20AC;? Tonight: Get a head start on tomorrow. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Avoid projecting any negativity. Someone you adore might catch it, and you love this personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s usually happy ways. Allow more serious conversations to occur, but put them in perspective. Your sense of humor emerges when dealing with a child. Tonight: Let the good times roll. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You are on top of what you must do. A last-minute financial matter or problem at home could occupy your time. At first, you might feel overwhelmed. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t; however, do change plans rather than squeeze everything in. Tonight: Find time to relax. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Help a friend who is down in the dumps. Your presence could help turn this personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day around. Your sense of humor helps him or her lighten up. Touch base with family or friends afterward, even if it is simply a call. Tonight: Visit with a sibling. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH How you handle your finances and what you do could change a lot in your life. If you are doing taxes, be thorough and careful. A sense of completion will follow and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll feel great later. Tonight: Treat yourself well. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Though friends and family might be a bit aloof, you are able to move past limitations imposed by their moods. You understand, though â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you have been moody too. Go visit a loved one who is always happy to see you. Tonight: Go with an impulse. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HH You might want to go on a retreat, or at least play it low-key today. Understand what you expect from someone, but know that he or she cannot give that to you at the moment. It will happen at a later date, though. Tonight: Think â&#x20AC;&#x153;Monday.â&#x20AC;?

As seen from Glacier Point on a clear, dark night, a long exposure renders the stars as streaks above 8,836-foot Half Dome, the iconic symbol of Yosemite National Park. The only sounds a visitor may hear are the hooting of owls and the rush of Vernal and Nevada Falls more than a half-mile straight down.

Yosemite Continued from C1 The tireless 19th-century efforts of famed naturalist John Muir helped to establish Yosemite as the country’s third national park (after Yellowstone and Sequoia) in 1890. The eloquence of Muir, who traveled much of the park by foot and committed his experiences to writing, inspired travelers from all over the world to visit the park; in 2011, more than 4 million penetrated its boundaries. Sixty percent of those visitors, however, are in the park between June and September. That means the balance of the year is comparatively tourist-free. April visitors, for instance, deal with barely onethird of the August crowds. And spring is a wonderful time to experience Yosemite, especially when the typical layer of snow has melted. That wasn’t much of a factor in the winter just past. Badger Pass Ski Area, at 7,200 feet elevation, was closed for much of the season for lack of snow. The park’s Tioga Road, which crosses a 9,945-foot pass, was open in January, inspiring ice skaters to take their blades to frozen Tenaya Lake. Glacier Point Road, normally closed from November to May, welcomed drivers to its perch opposite Half Dome on the shortest day of the year. When a friend and I recently visited Yosemite for the first time in many years, en route from Las Vegas to Bend, we entered from the south, on California state Highway 41 from Fresno via Oakhurst. We

departed to the west, on state Highway 120 through Groveland to Manteca. In between, we enjoyed two full days of a park that Muir once called “by far the grandest of all the special temples of Nature I was ever permitted to enter.”

Yosemite Valley If there is a single classic view of the Yosemite Valley, it is the breathtaking panorama offered at Inspiration Point, just above Tunnel View on the Wawona Road that enters the valley from the south. From here, to the left, the giant rock wall known as El Capitan rises 3,500 feet directly above the dense pine forest that shrouds the Merced River. To the right, 620-foot Bridalveil Fall is the most unmistakable of numerous waterfalls that cascade down cliff walls. The distinctively fractured face of Half Dome rises in the distance, 9 miles east. Well-known Upper and Lower Yosemite Falls are shielded from this view, behind El Capitan on the north side of the valley. Together, they drop 2,425 feet, making Yosemite Falls the highest free-falling waterfall in North America and the fifth highest in the world. Yosemite boasts six other falls of 1,000 feet or more in height; Oregon’s Multnomah Falls, by comparison, drop 620 feet, the same as Bridalveil Fall. A great variety of wildlife lives in the valley. Mule deer, coyotes and black bears are often seen, both on park roads and, especially, in the meadows flanking the river. The hub of human activity is Yosemite Village. Facilities

include a visitor center with excellent interpretive displays; a small museum that interprets the culture of the native Miwok tribe; and the Ansel Adams Gallery, exhibiting an outstanding selection of original art and photography. There’s also a medical clinic, restaurants, park administration offices, a post office and even a federal courtroom. Nearby is The Ahwahnee, Yosemite’s National Historic Landmark hotel. Built in 1925, its stone-and-timber architecture reflects the towering pines and granite cliffs that surround it. One-hour tours of the building and grounds showcase its elegant dining room and its grand public spaces with giant stone fireplaces. The hotel has 123 rooms priced beginning at $415 per night; non-guests may visit the concierge desk to make tour reservations. Other lodging options in Yosemite Valley include the Yosemite Lodge at the Falls (from $219) and tent cabins in Curry Village and Housekeeping Camp (from $60). Outside of the valley are the historic, Victorian-era Wawona Hotel (from $120); luxurious Tenaya Lodge (from $135), just outside the park’s south entrance; and seasonal High Sierra tent cabins. The Ahwahnee is unquestionably the star of the local dining scene. Longtime chef Percy Whatley offers a hearty, French-influenced dinner menu with entrees priced $27 to $49, and during the Christmas season, hosts a renowned series of four-hour dinner pageants called the Bracebridge Dinners. Take notice: Even in

Canvas tent cabins at Curry Village offer alternative lodging to budget travelers for prices that begin as low as $60 per night. There are more than 400 of these units in the park; they are equipped with bear-proof storage lockers, but have no electricity or plumbing.

this rustic environment, the dining room has a strict dress code. But other lodging facilities have less formal, less expensive choices available.

Outside the valley So long as the road is open, the 32-mile drive from the valley to Glacier Point belongs on any Yosemite visitor’s list of “must dos.” We waited until twilight to make the trip, and were rewarded with a memorable view of Half Dome under clear, starry skies. In fact, I think I’d rather stand on this roost, high above the valley floor, in the dark of night — when my car is the only one in the parking lot — than under bright sunshine when I’m jockeying for sightseeing position. On a calm night, even before moonrise, the only sounds you may hear are the hooting of owls and the rush of the Merced River over Vernal and Nevada Falls more than a half-mile straight down. The Glacier Point Road

branches off the Wawona Road, which leads 31 miles from Yosemite Village to the park’s south entrance near Fish Camp. Wawona, which is about 25 miles from the valley, was homesteaded in 1856. As travel to Yosemite increased, a hotel was built in 1876; it burned down two years later, but a replacement was erected in 1879 — and the Wawona Hotel remains standing today, 133 years old. Of special note among the couple of dozen buildings at Wawona are those within the Pioneer Yosemite Heritage Center. Although rangers in period costumes don’t offer living-history demonstrations, such as blacksmithing, in the off season, visitors can still enjoy an exhibit of old horsedrawn vehicles. Leading to the village is a restored 1870s covered bridge over the South Fork of the Merced River. Mariposa Grove, via a short spur road from the park’s south entrance, lies about 6 miles

from Wawona. This magnificent stand of more than 500 giant sequoias is the largest in the park. An extensive system of trails winds among the mammoth trees. A small herd of deer scampered into a thicket as we rounded one of them, the so-called Grizzly Giant, nearly 2,000 years old and 96 feet around at its base. We lacked the time, on this trip through Yosemite, to visit two other regions of the park. Running 46 miles through the northern part of the park from Crane Flat, northwest of Yosemite Valley, to Tioga Pass, and continuing downhill another 12 miles to Mono Lake, the Tioga Road accesses a wilderness otherwise inaccessible except on foot or horseback. Two rustic “lodges” — actually canvas tent-cabins — provide shelter along the route. The Tuolumne Meadows area near Tioga Pass has a visitor center, general store and gas station to go with a concentration of trailheads. Continued next page

Making strides along England’s Cotswold Way By Sue Horton

If you go

Los Angeles Times

BATH, England — On the high street of the lovely Cotswold village of Chipping Campden, just next to the 12th century stone marketplace, sits an unobtrusive but intimidating sign. “Cotswold Way, the beginning and the end,” it reads. “Bath 100 m.” The “m” stands for miles. The sign marked the starting point of our 10-day walk through the Cotswolds, along a trail that loosely follows the route that monks in ancient times walked each year to pay tribute to Bath Abbey. My husband, Carl, and I had been planning the trip for months, but as we set off on an overcast day in late April, we were both nervous. Were we really up to 10 consecutive days of hilly walking? We had chosen the Cotswold Way, one of Britain’s wellmaintained National Trails, because the region of rolling hills and charming villages has been designated an “area of outstanding beauty” and because it has an excellent infrastructure for walkers. Towns are spaced walking-distance apart, with an abundance of restaurants and lodgings. Most important: I’d found a luggage service that would take our bags from town to town so that we had to carry only what we needed for the day. England has an extensive network of well-marked footpaths and bridle ways, many of them dating back centuries, and the public has the right to travel them even when they cross private land. Much of the Cotswold Way is on these trails, and our first day’s walk, a short five miles up and over the Cotswold escarpment to the picturesque village of Broadway, got us accustomed to the stiles and kissing gates that allow humans access but keep livestock from escaping. We also got our first taste of the Cotswolds’ many joys — well-tended fields of bright-yellow rapeseed, newborn lambs frolicking in verdant pastures, abundant bird life, hardwood forests carpeted with bluebells and vistas that seemed to stretch forever. By the time we got to Broadway, we were feeling far more confident about the trip.

A pleasant rhythm Over the days that followed, we fell into a pleasant rhythm. Up at 7, a hearty breakfast by 7:30, packed and on the trail by 8:30. One of the joys of a longdistance walk is that every step is new territory: There’s no retracing your steps. And we quickly embraced the zeitgeist of the Cotswold Way, putting one foot in front of the other

THE BEST WAY TO CHIPPING CAMPDEN, ENGLAND From London’s Heathrow airport, take the express train to Paddington Station. From Paddington, trains run every hour or so to Moreton-inMarsh. A cab or bus will take you the last eight miles to Chipping Campden.

TELEPHONES To call the numbers below from the U.S., dial 011 (the international dialing code) 44 (England’s country code) and then the number.

PLANNING THE WALK

and seeing where that took us. Because the villages tend to be at the bottoms of hills, while the Cotswold Way runs largely along the ridges, most days started with a climb. If we saw a monument on a distant hillside, we knew we would be standing next to it at some point. If there was an ancient burial mound, an Iron Age hill fort, a particularly scenic overlook, our route was sure to include it. We walked through pastures with cows by the dozens (including a bull or two) and sheep by the hundreds, following frequent way-markers that made getting lost nearly impossible. We were fortunate in the weather, with no rain to speak of, and never during 10 days of five- to seven-hour walks was there a morning we wished we could beg off, never a moment along the trail when we wished we were doing something else. Each day brought some unexpected pleasure. In the town of Dursley, we had a delicious lunch of homemade soup and bread just out of the oven at

the Old Spot Inn, named Britain’s pub of the year in 2007. In a cemetery in the town of Horton, I found dozens of headstones bearing my family name. In the tranquil village of Painswick, we walked in the churchyard among its 99 topiary yew trees, each of which has been adopted by one of the town’s residents.

Trail encounters We had daily conversations with locals who lived along the trail or were out walking dogs or picking wildflowers. And we answered the same questions again and again: Had we trained for the walk? (Yes, by going for regular long walks on weekends, building to a couple of 13-milers.) Did we have blisters? (No, but only because we’d broken in our boots well before we left home, and because on the trail we were careful to stop any time we felt the slightest twinge and put on blister pads.) Were we sore? (Only for the first couple of days.)

From previous page The Pacific Crest and John Muir trails pass through these alpine meadows, where the Dana and Lyell Forks join to form the Tuolumne River. Nearby, the chief points of interest are Olmsted Point and Tenaya Lake. The former offers remarkable views of Half Dome down the Tenaya Canyon. The lake, 2½ miles further east, is a beautiful oasis and a cold place for a swim. Hetch Hetchy, 40 miles from Yosemite Village in the northwest sector of the park, is best known for its namesake reservoir. A century ago, a valley that some say was comparable to the Yosemite Valley was dammed to provide water and power to the City of San Francisco — which it continues to do today. Hikes to Tueeulala and Wapama Falls on north shore of Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, and views of imposing Kolana Rock above its south shore, are reasons to visit.

Beyond the park

The Grizzly Giant, nearly 2,000 years old and 96 feet around at its base, is one of the featured sequoias in the Mariposa Grove. In summer, open-air trams follow a paved road past this tree to a small museum; in the off season, visitors are encouraged to use their feet to explore the grove.

There’s plenty to see outside of the park boundaries, both to the south and west. Oakhurst, 15 miles from the south entrance at Mariposa Grove, is the south side’s tourism hub, with a wide range of lodging and dining options. But the biggest attraction on this side of the park is the Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad at tiny Fish Camp, not far from the Tenaya Lodge. Turn-of-the-20th-century steam engines navigate through the Sierra National Forest, offering glimpses of

On the steepest climb of the trip, to the top of Cleeve Hill, we met a British couple who were also walking to Bath and knew all sorts of local lore. They told us how the Cotswolds grew wealthy during the Middle Ages from the wool trade, and how, when competition from Italy began infringing on profits, the wealthy wool merchants got a law passed requiring that England’s dead be buried in wool shrouds.

Accommodations You can book Cotswold Way tours that arrange lodgings for you. But I had been determined to plan the trip myself, and the National Trails website had made that relatively easy. Still, we were never sure what kind of place we’d find ourselves in at the end of the day. We were, in general, pleasantly surprised. In the Saxonera town of Winchcombe, we stayed at Wesley House, named after the founder of the Methodist church, John Wesley, who stayed at the inn twice during the 1700s. We had to duck our head to get in or out of the bathroom but had a splendid meal in the restaurant downstairs. In Painswick, we stayed at Byfield House, part of which dates to the Tudor era. The owners rent several rooms in their spectacular home, in part to support the upkeep of the historic property and in part to get to know the people who pass through. Only one night’s lodging was a disappointment. In the lovely village of Wotton-Under-Edge, we’d booked at the Swan Hotel, which looked in pictures like a typical small historic hotel. To be fair, it was undergoing renovations, and we were the only guests the night we stayed. But the room was tired, the bathroom corners grimy and the noise from

the region’s logging and goldmining heritage. To the west of the park is the California Gold Country. Groveland, its Main Street meandering through the Sierra foothills 49 miles from Yosemite Village, stirs visitors’ interest in exploring many more historic 1850s gold-rush towns — places like Jamestown, Sonora, Columbia, Angels Camp and Jackson, all of them linked by fascinating state Highway 49. But that’s another story. I’m still trying to negotiate the steep trail back downhill from Vernal Falls. Reporter: janderson@ bendbulletin.com

Many companies, including Sherpa Van (www.sherpavan. com) and Compass Holidays (www.compass-holidays. com), will handle as many of your arrangements as you’d like, including booking accommodations and transporting luggage. Some companies also have organized tours.

WHERE TO STAY Most of the towns along the Cotswold Way have many choices of accommodation. These were a few of our

the pub below continued late into the night. We were glad to be out the next morning. Food was generally quite good — but of course we were hungry. Pub grub was hardy but basic, and we twice had excellent Indian food. In Painswick, we dined lavishly at Cotswold 88, which changes its menu daily depending on what is available from local farms. After having walked for much of that day through forests that smelled strongly of the wild garlic known as ramps, we had pea soup infused with them, followed by slow-cooked local lamb — and, yes, we felt guilty about eating it after having gotten to know many of the neighborhood sheep. For our final nights in Bath, we had splurged by booking a room at the elegant Priory Hotel. But as we approached the city, we found ourselves dawdling. In hours of walking each day, we had gotten to know the countryside intimately. We had learned to identify the pungent

aroma of ramps, the cheerful song of the British robin, the worried bleat of a lamb separated from its mother. We had transported ourselves 100 miles at the speed humans were intended to travel. And we weren’t quite ready for the journey to end. We decided to check into our hotel on the town’s outskirts and save a short leg for the next day. On our way into the city that final morning, we slowed to take pictures, to admire the Georgian architecture, to window-shop. But all too soon it was over. We triumphantly laid hands on the door of Bath Abbey. And, on the walk back to our hotel, we began planning our next long trek.

Wed d ing emergency kit just may come in handy By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz Chicago Tribune

Your 6-year-old interrupts any conversation that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include her. Are you giving her enough attention? Parent advice: If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s any conversation that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include her, then the problem probably isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not getting enough attention but rather that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got work to do in the patience and listening departments. This is not unusual, of course, because kids often have a hard time imagining life from othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; perspectives, so gentle but firm counsel about waiting your turn is appropriate. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mark Caro You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to overreact to the rudeness, because doing so might actually reinforce the behavio. A flat, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not while mommyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talkingâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jimmyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s turn to talkâ&#x20AC;? or even â&#x20AC;&#x153;Please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t interrupt,â&#x20AC;? followed by returning your attention to whomever is talking, teaches your child that this ploy wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Phil Vettel Expert advice: More attention, by itself, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to cure your child of bad manners, which are at the core of perpetual interrupting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We live in an instant gratification society: on-demand TV shows, what you want when you want it,â&#x20AC;? says Mary Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donohue, author of â&#x20AC;&#x153;When You Say â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Thank You,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Mean It â&#x20AC;Ś and 11 Other Lessons for Instilling Lifelong Values in Your Childrenâ&#x20AC;? (Adams Media). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Life doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always work that way, which is why itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so important to teach our kids to be patient and respectful. Interrupting is very disrespectful.â&#x20AC;? Of course, so is ignoring your kids. But letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assume youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not doing that. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assume your 6-year-old is

getting ample attention and just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fathom why youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have a conversation without her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Usually kids arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trying to be rude or disrespectful, they just want you,â&#x20AC;? says Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donohue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It helps to allow them to switch places and see how it feels.â&#x20AC;? She has hammered this particular lesson home with her own daughter during one of the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s frequent manners-based drills. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We try to turn respect from an abstract concept into something real â&#x20AC;Ś that you can use in life, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Be respectful!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; as they head out the door.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I tell my daughter, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Today Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to show you what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not using respectful behavior,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? she says. The drill goes something like this: Mom: How was your day at school? Daughter: We had a test in science and â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mom: Oh! I went shopping today! Daughter: OK, so I had this test â&#x20AC;Ś Mom: And I found this great new bag! â&#x20AC;&#x153;She knows weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing this as an exercise,â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donohue says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But when I ask how it makes her feel, she says, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;It feels like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not important to you. It feels like you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care what I have to say.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then I ask her to tell me about her day and I just listen and wait and save my comments for the end. And I tell her, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The first one is what it feels like to be disrespected. The second one is what it feels like to be respected. Which one do you like better?â&#x20AC;? Her child, of course, likes â&#x20AC;&#x153;respected.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;So does everybody else,â&#x20AC;? says Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donohue, laughing.

Continued from C1 “ ‘Mr. Marmalade’ just tanked, terribly,” said Hills. “Like a financial disaster.” Average audience size was 24.

A tough environment Innovation Theatre Works is not the first area theater to face struggles in recent years. In the midst of its 30th season in 2008, Cascades Theatrical Company launched a successful $30,000 fundraising campaign to keep its doors open. Theater operations manager Lana Shane says CTC has been able to stay in the black since the 2008 season, and just recently paid off its mortgage. Although some shows have sold out, attendance is down 3 or 4 percent from the previous two seasons. “Not a huge (drop), but there’s always room to build it.” In late 2009, after eight seasons, Bend’s 2nd Street Theater announced it would be closing due to its own financial woes. However, the theater kept its doors open for other theater groups to rent, among them Bend Experimental Art Theatre. The nonprofit educational theater for young actors also puts on musical productions using stages at area high schools; “Annie Get Your Gun” ran earlier this month at Bend High School and drew a total 2,000. According to Howard Schor, co-founder and executive director of BEAT, personal contact and word of mouth are the primary ways that BEAT is able to spread the word and draw large audiences to its offerings. For its smaller productions, including the currently running “And a Child Shall Lead,” BEAT uses more intimate spaces at 2nd Street Theater and CTC’s Greenwood Playhouse. Sandy Klein and her husband, Greg Thoma, son of 2nd Street cofounder Maralyn Thoma, formed a nonprofit, Stage Right Productions, to stage shows at 2nd Street Theater. In January, Klein and company presented the rock musical “The Who’s Tommy.” Next up, in May, is Del Shores’ comedy “Sordid Lives.”

“We’ve got things on the books through the end of 2014 right now,” Klein said. “ ‘Tommy’ turned out really well. We made a couple of dollars, and we ended up selling out most of the shows toward the end.” However, the turnout was less strong during the recent run of comedy “Gina Galdi and Guest,” written and produced by Bend playwright Cricket Daniel; Klein suggests that’s partly due to its lengthy four-week run, from Feb. 17 to March 17. “So the audiences were spread kind of thin,” Klein said. “It’s tough to get an audience. That’s the challenge,” she added. “We’ve been seeing more new actors, singers and new crew people, but it’s the audience that’s the challenging part.” Why? “I think the economy has a lot to do with it. And I don’t think people are used to having so many choices in theater. It’s tough when you’ve got three plays going on at the same time, and it’s 20 bucks a ticket. You’ve got to pick and choose which ones you want to go see, I guess.”

Finding the right balance At Innovation, people wanted to see the Christmas production of David Sedaris’ “The Santaland Diaries.” While it was a hit, the play was staged in the theater’s smaller lobby area, which seats 40 and means lower potential ticket sales overall. This winter’s “Angels of Lemnos” also did well, but was also staged in the smaller space. “I haven’t really been able to figure out what mechanisms drive Bend audience attendance,” Hills said. “The general rule is musicals should do well. Comedies should then do the next best, and then things like murder mysteries, whodunnits, that kind of thing, will then do next. Dramas are going to be tough sells. Classics are tough sells as well. “So the thing about ‘Godot’ — I don’t know if people are afraid of it because they think one thing about it, and what they don’t honestly know is that it’s in fact really funny. And our production is quite hilarious.” Cat Call Productions has

consistently sold out the Tower Theatre, where the Bend company has been staging one annual musical each fall since 2009, including “Cabaret” and “Chicago.” (Cat Call has planned Mel Brooks’ “The Producers” for Sept. 14-22.) But as theaters offering full seasons, Cascades Theatrical Company and Innovation have a slightly different challenge in selecting their productions, according to CTC operations manager Lana Shane. “It’s hard to get that balance and still give the theater audience in Bend a really good idea of what theater’s like,” she said. “You want to give a great variety of challenging plays as well as (popular) things. … You try to give a full cosmopolitan theater experience to Bend, because Bend is such an impressive place culturally, for a town this size.” CTC attempts to present a challenging play or two per season, she said. “And it’s always hard, because you get a different group that like the dark comedies and the absurdist and the challenging, and they’re up for every theatrical experience. And you have another portion of the population that’s like, ‘No, we’d be fine seeing “Oklahoma” every year.’”

Feeling optimistic “Godot” runs through April 22, and Hills is optimistic that the theater’s fortunes could turn around during the rest of its run. He received warm responses to his email, and the third week of its run could be the charm. “The third week is the best week, and it has been for all of my shows. I think if you ask any theater in town, they’ll tell you the same thing,” he said. Hills said he decided to cancel the next lobby presentation, which was to be “Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You.” “I thought it’d be better for me to concentrate on getting people into ‘Godot’ and the next show on the main stage.” That’s “She Loves Me” in June, Hills said, “which is a fabulous musical that should do well for us.” — Reporter: 541-383-0349, djasper@bendbulletin.com

The magnificant style of Egyptian artifacts By Roberta Smith New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — In many ways the art of dynastic Egypt brought nature to a standstill, freezing the figure in an elegant, quietly pulsing suspended animation. Especially in its grandest, most monumental expression — the eerie, somnolent statues of the gods and of the pharaohs who were their earthly junior-god emissaries — Egypt offers us the sleekest, longest-running style in the history of art. It is also probably as instantly recognizable and firmly imprinted on human consciousness as any we know. This style’s consistency is, if you think about it, frightening. It bespeaks an authoritarian power that was consolidated under the first pharaoh around 3100 B.C. and that, despite political ups and downs, maintained a firm grip on the country’s aesthetic program for nearly three millenniums. The duration of Egyptian art may dull curiosity about how it began, since it is hard imagining a time when it didn’t exist. But of course everything starts somewhere: the high Egyptian style did not spring fully formed from the forehead of Osiris, god of the afterlife. This is demonstrated by “The Dawn of Egyptian Art,” a sublime, view-shifting exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art dominated foremost by small, startlingly personable sculptures and vessels from around 3900 to 2649 B.C. The show’s around 190 objects include animal sculptures and figures carved in wood, ivory and stone or modeled in clay; ceramic vessels painted with boats and their regal occupants. There are game boards, also of carved stone, including one in the shape of a coiled rattlesnake, and numerous wafer-thin hand-size stone palettes for mixing makeup whose minimally inflected silhouettes nonetheless intimate various animals, including fish, lions and a pair of mating turtles. One of the show’s most valuable lessons is that the art of dynastic Egypt was able to suspend nature in such perfect stasis in part because the art of early Egypt devised so many lively ways to distill and abbreviate it or to precisely depict it. In this sense the show attests once more to the tension between the abstract and representational as one of the animating engines of visual form. “The Dawn of Egyptian Art” concentrates on the art of Egypt’s predynastic and early dynastic periods. The predynastic period in particular was not really identified as such until the late 19th century, about 100 years after Napoleon’s otherwise disastrous expedition to Egypt laid the foundations for Egyptology. Some of the most important excavations of this material have been conducted only in the last several decades.

The afterlife The show was organized by Diana Craig Patch, associate curator in the Met’s department of Egyptian art, who has installed it with exceptional clarity. The objects she has brought together come mostly from graves and temples, the preoccupation with equipping the dead for the afterlife having preceded the Pharaohs by many centuries. They include about 80 works from the Met’s

A sculpture of a bound captive that formed part of a temple threshold is on display in the “Dawn of Egyptian Art” exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The exhibit, which runs through Aug. 5, shows the foundations of the instantly recognizable style of Egyptian art.

collection, most of which usually hide in plain sight, on display in the opening gallery of the Egyptian wing. In this exhibition Egypt’s often overlooked beginnings move to center stage, with the Met pieces supplemented by outstanding loans from a dozen other museums in the United States and Europe. The show achieves minor miracles like bringing together three small amulets in the shape of hippopotamuses — they may be pregnant and may have been worn as protection by pregnant women — from the collections of the Met, the British Museum and the Royal Museums of Art and History in Brussels. The label points out that the Met and British Museum pieces are so similar, they could have been made by the same person. More showstopping highlights include a large white alabaster baboon dating from around 3100 B.C. and lent by the Egyptian Museum in Berlin. Heralding the arrival of pharaonic perfection, this creature could not be more commanding; the ruff of fur around its face is a de facto royal headdress. From the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in Britain comes a slightly earlier, truly ravishing figure: a tiny standing woman carved in lapis lazuli that was probably imported from Afghanistan. She folds her arms delicately across her waist and seems at once naked and clothed in some clingy, semi-transparent garment. But the real miracle is the marvelous subtle sway of her back and the slight contrapposto of her legs. The rougher, ostensibly cruder animals and figures that predate these objects and lead up to them are the heart of the show. You’ll find a hint of that implacable baboon

and its sculptural ingenuity in the small carved stone heads of two hippos, one above the other, who, like the turtles, may also be mating. The hippo is frequently sighted in the show’s early section, mostly on vases and bowls painted with vibrant hunting scenes, and has a parting cameo in the show’s small, somewhat tacked-on closing section in the form of a charming 12thto-13th Dynasty faience version, popularly known as “William,” a gift-shop favorite.

Stillness Other premonitions of things to come include the show’s opening work: a carved-stone image of a jackal the size of a large kitten. Shown midstep, perhaps on the hunt for dinner, it still summons some of the streamlined stillness that permeates the later dynastic figures, which are so often also stepping forward but completely motionless, going nowhere. Less appealing in several ways is a door socket in the form of a bound captive that feels sculpturally forced while also manifesting some of the

aggression that was undoubtedly necessary to achieve the unification of Egypt. The Egyptian penchant for repeating lines of animals and figures, which persisted in reliefs for centuries, is evident in a small ceramic box nearby that is painted with rows of flamingoes. The repetition undoubtedly replicates reality to some degree — flocks of flamingoes, standing in water, often line up in surprisingly regular ways — but it also manifests a desire for order and control over nature. And these schematic birds, which are divided neatly into three elements indicating leg, body and neck-head, also reflect the closeness in the Egyptian mind of image making to writing that would eventually result in hieroglyphics. At several points in this show single vitrines have the complexity of small exhibitions unto themselves. This happens in a large gallery that starts with a superb cluster of painted vases, where each subsequent display introduces a different figurative style. Just outside this gallery, several vitrines almost seem like bestiaries, organized sometimes by material and sometimes by species. One of the best features a series of rough-edged but wonderfully accurate creatures, including a wild cow, carefully chipped out of flint. At their center is displayed a cylindrical vase on which an even wilder cow has been incised in a seemingly continuous looping line, a free, lanky form that resembles a Texas longhorn dancing on its toes. With opening acts like these it is small wonder that Egyptian art lasted as long as it did.

MLB Red Sox put Ellsbury on DL BOSTON — The Boston Red Sox are looking for someone to help fill the leadoff spot with the loss of Jacoby Ellsbury. The Red Sox placed Ellsbury, a Madras High School and Oregon State product, on the 15-day disabled list with a partially dislocated right shoulder before Saturday’s game against Tampa Bay. The club recalled outfielder Che-Hsuan Lin from Triple-A Pawtucket to take Ellsbury’s spot on the roster. The 23-year old Lin is in the big leagues for the first time. He was three for 20 in six games with Pawtucket this season. Ellsbury, the runner-up in last year’s AL MVP voting, injured the shoulder sliding into second base in Friday’s 12-2 win. Last season Ellsbury batted .321 with 32 homers, 105 RBIs and led the majors with 364 total bases — the most since Bobby Bonds did it with the San Francisco Giants in 1973. Rays shortstop Reid Brignac fell on his shoulder after making a throw to first to complete a double play. Manager Bobby Valentine said Ellsbury was examined Friday night and will continue to be looked at. He didn’t give a timetable for the outfielder’s return. “Proper treatment,” Valentine said when asked what type of treatment Ellsbury would need for the injury. The outfielder was not seen in the clubhouse before the game, but tweeted “Thanks for all the well wishes. Sublexed (partially dislocated) my right shoulder in yesterday’s game. No timetable set, working hard to get back as soon as possible.”

Choking up becoming a lost art in the majors

Portland falls to Los Angeles, 3-1 CARSON, Calif. — Landon Donovan and David Beckham scored goals and Los Angeles beat the Portland Timbers 3-1 on Saturday night, snapping the Galaxy’s two-game losing skid. Juninho scored the go-ahead goal in the 83rd minute for the defending champion Galaxy, who struggled in the season’s early going. “It was a game we needed to win,” Galaxy coach Bruce Arena said. Kris Boyd scored the only goal for Portland, which lost its fourth straight. The past three have all come on goals in the final 10 minutes. “It’s an issue we need to address and we need to address it quickly,” Boyd said. A turnover led to a quick pass from Eric Alexander to Boyd as he was retreating away from the goal box. The linesman kept his flag down, allowing Boyd to dribble in uncontested and finish a low shot. Donovan leveled the score 1-1 moments before halftime. Juninho broke the deadlock when he won a loose ball outside the box. The Brazilian unleashed a strike from 23 yards out for the score. — The Associated Press

Alberto Salazar crosses the finish line of the 1982 edition of the Boston Marathon in front of second-place finisher Dick Beardsley. By John Powers The Boston Globe

Three decades later, Alberto Salazar and Dick Beardsley still are linked, just as they were for the final nine miles of the most unforgettable of the 115 Boston Marathons. “It’s probably one of the few sporting events where people know who was second as much as who was first,” Beardsley says. “Pretty crazy.” Not before or since have two men battled step for step for so long on the fabled Hopkinton-to-Boston layout and finished so close as did Salazar — the former high school standout from Wayland, Mass., and University of Oregon great — and Beardsley — a Minnesota dairy farmer — in 1982 in what became known as the Duel in the Sun.

Local connection Some 27,000 runners are expected to toe the starting line Monday morning for the 2012 Boston Marathon, among them 264 Oregonians. Eleven runners from Central Oregon are on the race’s official entry list:

Barry Bonds always did the same thing with a bat in his hands. He choked up. Whether he was hitting singles and stealing bases as a skinny leadoff man or mashing monstrous homers as a jacked-up cleanup hitter, Bonds held his bat a few inches up on the handle. Worked out nicely for him. Bonds set a major league record with 762 home runs, had a career .298 batting average, drove in 1,996 runs and won seven MVP awards. He is arguably the greatest hitter of his generation, though accusations of using

performance enhancing drugs tarnished his image. Considering the incredible success Bonds had at the plate, one would think other hitters would try to emulate his stance, his swing, his approach. But that is not the case. Look around the majors now, and fewer players choke up on the bat. Not even with two strikes, like they were taught in Little League. Smaller guys put their hands all the way down on the knob and swing for the fences. Some sluggers even hold their bat with their pinkie finger off the handle because it gives them more whip. They forgo bat control and opt for more power, though choking up certainly did not affect Bonds’ ability to go deep. Dustin Pedroia and Jimmy Rollins won MVP awards doing it their way. Both guys hardly compare to Bonds in size — they’re barely 5 feet 8 in spikes — yet they have put up big numbers without choking up. See Choking / D6 At left, the Philadelphia Phillies’ Hunter Pence is one of the few players in the major leagues who regularly chokes up on his bat. The Associated Press file

The Associated Press HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Carl Pettersson couldn’t have had a better time with Colt Knost at the RBC Heritage. He hopes to have as much fun when the two play again today. Pettersson had a run of five straight birdies on the front nine and finished with a birdie on the 18th hole for a 66 and a one-stroke lead over Knost heading into the final round of the RBC Heritage on Saturday. Pettersson and Knost chatted and laughed throughout the round, looking more like a pair of duffers at the local municipal course out for a weekend round rather than pro golfers chasing a PGA Tour title. “Two fat guys played in three hours, 48 minutes,” Pettersson said with a

GOLF ROUNDUP smile. “That was pretty good. But we had a good time.” Especially Pettersson, who used his birdie streak to overtake a nervous Knost and build a three-shot lead through 10 holes. Knost tamed the butterflies enough to find the game that had him in the lead here after Thursday and Friday, tying for the top after Pettersson’s bogey on the par-5 15th hole. Pettersson moved in front at the end with a stunning approach that slid by the cup on No. 18 for a closing birdie. The two will match up once again in the final pairing today. “I’m going to try tomorrow to have

fun,” said Knost, seeking his first win on the PGA Tour. Zach Johnson, the 2007 Masters winner, shot a 66 to move to third at 8 under, three behind the leaders. Twotime RBC Heritage champion Boo Weekley had a 70 and was in fourth, another shot behind. Defending champ Brandt Snedeker (69), Kevin Na (70) and Robert Garrigus (70) were next at 6 under. World No. 1 Luke Donald failed to make a move toward keeping the top spot, his even-par 71 leaving him at 2 over and tied for 52nd. Donald needs to finish eighth or better to fend off No. 2 Rory McIlroy, who like Masters champion Bubba Watson and most other top golfers, was taking the week off. Also on Saturday:

Allen grabs Champions Tour lead LUTZ, Fla. — Michael Allen shot a 4-under 67 to take a five-stroke lead after the second round of the Champions Tour’s Encompass Insurance Pro-Am. He finished with a birdie on the par-4 18th to reach 9 under at TPC Tampa Bay. Bernhard Langer, Sandy Lyle, Corey Pavin and Olin Browne were tied for second. Oosthuizen on top of Malaysian Open KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — South Africa’s Louis Oosthuizen had a one-stroke lead with eight holes left when third-round play in the Malaysian Open was suspended because of a thunderstorm. Oosthuizen, coming off a playoff loss in the Masters, was at 13 under. Scotland’s Stephen Gallacher was 12 under with seven holes left.

Baseball • Ducks blank No. 6 Stanford: Oregon freshman Jake Reed pitched seven scoreless innings and reliever Jeff Gold completed the shutout as the No. 16 Ducks defeated sixth-ranked Stanford 5-0 on Saturday at Sunken Diamond in Palo Alto, Calif. With the Pac-12 Conference victory, Oregon (24-9 overall, 10-4 Pac-12) won its fourth consecutive league series, including three in a row against top-25 opponents. The win over the Cardinal (21-9, 4-7) was the second in as many days for Oregon and marked the 600th career Division I victory for Ducks head coach George Horton. Aaron Payne collected three hits for Oregon, as did Ryon Healy, whose three-run homer in the fourth inning hiked the Ducks’ lead to 5-0. The three-game series concludes today; first pitch is scheduled for noon. • Beavers’ Casey gets 600th win: Ryan Dunn and Joey Matthews each homered to help Oregon State to a 12-2 seven-inning win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Saturday at Goss Stadium in Corvallis. The victory was No. 600 for Pat Casey as head coach of the Beavers. Matthews’ solo home run in the seventh inning ended the game as it gave OSU a 10-run lead. Michael Conforto hit a three-run triple to highlight the Beavers’ five-run sixth inning, giving the freshman a team-leading 46 RBIs for the season. Jace Fry was the winning pitcher, allowing three hits and two unearned runs over seven innings. The Beavers (22-11) and the Golden Lions (6-27-1) conclude their three-game nonconference series today with a game starting at 1:05 p.m. • Giants closer likely needs surgery: San Francisco Giants closer Brian Wilson is likely headed for surgery on his right elbow after an MRI showed structural damage and an issue with the ligament, and his season could be in jeopardy. Manager Bruce Bochy and athletic trainer Dave Groeschner say the club will seek at least one other opinion and probably two, including from the renowned orthopedist Dr. James Andrews, who performs Tommy John elbow-reconstruction surgeries. The 30-year-old Wilson, who led the majors with 48 saves in 2010, already had one Tommy John surgery during college. The three-time All-Star right-hander complained of discomfort in the elbow Friday then was sent for tests. • Feds bulk up team for Clemens’ steroid retrial: On a baseball field, players back up teammates to limit the damage from errors. The Justice Department, embarrassed by an error that caused a mistrial of Roger Clemens last year, has added more prosecutors in hopes of containing any missteps as it seeks to convict the famed pitcher of lying to Congress when he said he never used performance-enhancing drugs. The prosecution team has more than doubled from two lawyers to five, enough manpower for an infield and pitcher. U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton declared a mistrial last July on only the second day of testimony, after prosecutors showed jurors evidence that had been ruled inadmissible. Walton also will preside over the new trial, which begins selecting a jury on Monday and is expected to last four to six weeks.

Horse racing • Two horses euthanized from spills in England: The Grand National steeplechase was marred for the second year in a row with the death of two horses Saturday in Aintree, England, including the pre-race favorite Synchronised. Synchronised went down at the sixth fence of the 4½mile, 30-fence race considered one of the world’s most prestigious jumping races. According to Pete went down at the same fence, but later in the race. The start was delayed when Synchronised unseated jockey Tony McCoy, but race organizers said the horse was “thoroughly checked” by a veterinarian and allowed to line up in the 40-horse field. Neptune Collonges, a 33-1 long shot, won in the closest finish in the history of the race, which drew a crowd of 70,441. • Dullahan wins Blue Grass Stakes: Dullahan ran down Hansen in the final furlong to insert his own name among the Kentucky Derby favorites in the $750,000 Blue Grass Stakes on Saturday at Keeneland in Lexington, Ky. Dullahan went off at 3-1 odds, running the 11⁄8 -mile on the Polytrack in 1.47.94 under Kent Desormeaux.

Basketball • Magic’s Howard sidelined with back injury: Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard is officially listed as out with a herniated disc in his lower back for Orlando’s game in Cleveland today. Howard sat out the Magic’s 109-81 loss to Atlanta Friday, the fifth game he has missed in Orlando’s past seven outings. The team was off Saturday. He is not travelling with the team. The Magic are 1-4 without him. There is no timetable for his return, which will be based on how he responds to treatment. Before this season, Howard had only missed two games in his career because of injury.

Football • Nebraska spring game canceled: A band of strong thunderstorms brought a premature end to Nebraska’s spring football season Saturday. The annual Red-White Game was canceled, and coach Bo Pelini said the game will not be rescheduled. Officials initially hoped to play the scrimmage today, but Pelini said too many of his players had academic and personal conflicts. Records show Nebraska has played a spring game every year since 1950.

MOTOR SPORTS ROUNDUP

Biffle pulls away for Texas win The Associated Press FORT WORTH, Texas — Greg Biffle regained the lead when he charged under Jimmie Johnson with 30 laps left Saturday night, then pulled away to end his 49-race winless streak while giving owner Jack Roush another NASCAR Sprint Cup victory in Texas. “We knew it was a matter of time before we were going to win one of these things. We’ve been running so good,” Biffle said. “Catching the 48 at the end, it was all I had to be able to get to him. It seemed like when we got to him, it was too easy.” Johnson led 156 of the 334 laps while going for owner Rick Hendrick’s 200th career victory. But he never recovered, even scraping hard into the wall trying to catch up after Biffle drove under him in Turn 3 and completed the pass before the start-finish line. “I was surprised I didn’t have to deal with him anymore,” Biffle said. “I though he was going to be right there.” Biffle, the season points leader, went on to win the fastest Cup race at the 1½-mile, high-banked Texas track. His average speed of 160.577 mph put his Ford 3.2 seconds ahead of the Chevrolet driven by Johnson. The winning pass came in Turn 3, when Biffle drove his No. 16 under the No. 48 and then swept back in front for the lead before they got back to the start-finish line. “I just dug deep. I knew I had to do it and kept trying and trying and trying,” Biffle said. “I knew the team would forgive me if I wrecked it trying to beat him so I just gave it all I had.” It was Roush’s ninth win in 23 Cup races at Texas, and completed a Lone Star State weekend sweep. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. won the Nationwide race on Friday night for Roush’s fourth Texas victory in a

row and ninth overall in the second-tier series. “I don’t know if this is my last sweep,” Roush said. “But I’m going to remember this one for a long time.” Biffle got his 17th career victory. It was his first since an October 2010 race in Kansas, where the series goes next week. After starting third, Biffle was among the lead pack the entire race, leading 90 laps on a fastpaced and windy night. There were only two cautions for 10 slowed-down laps, both for debris, and the race finished with a record 234 consecutive laps of green-flag racing. Mark Martin finished third in a Michael Waltrip-owned Toyota, followed by Jeff Gordon and Roush driver Matt Kenseth. Polesitter Martin Truex Jr., another Waltrip car, finished sixth after leading 68 laps. Biffle got his eighth consecutive top-10 finish at Texas, where he had a victory in 2005 even before that stretch. For Hendrick Motorsports, it was the second race in a row that Rick

Hendrick was close to getting his first victory of the season and 200th in a career that began in 1984. Johnson, Gordon and teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. were running in the top three at Martinsville two weeks ago before a late restart in the last race before the Easter weekend break. But Clint Bowyer’s aggressive inside move took out Johnson and Gordon, and Earnhardt ended up third. “It’s nice to be running well. It’s nice to be in this position,” Johnson said. “But I want to get back to our winning ways really soon.” Also on Saturday: Briscoe wins pole, but Franchitti first LONG BEACH, Calif. — Ryan Briscoe won the pole for the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, but won’t start anywhere near the front of today’s race. Briscoe drives a Chevrolet, and the manufacturer decided this week to pull the engines from all 11 of its teams over concerns the engines wouldn’t last through the race. Changing the engines meant all Chevrolet drivers will be penalized 10 starting spots on the grid. So defending series champion Dario Franchitti actu-

• Italian player dies during match: Livorno midfielder Piermario Morosini died Saturday after suffering cardiac arrest and collapsing on the field during an Italian Serie B match at Pescara. He was 25. Morosini, who was on loan from Udinese, fell to the ground in the 31st minute of the match and tried unsuccessfully to get up several times before receiving medical attention on the field. A defibrillator was used on the player, who also had his heart massaged, before an ambulance arrived on the field. He was taken to the hospital, where doctors tried to revive him for more than an hour. The Italian football federation has called off all league games this weekend after Morosini’s death.

Win over Suns gives Spurs division title The Associated Press SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Spurs insist that being the No. 1 seed in the West isn’t important to them. They still might wind up with it. Simply making the playoffs is important to Phoenix. And this blowout won’t help. Tim Duncan had 19 points and 10 rebounds and Tony Parker scored 14 before calling it an early night, and the Spurs made the Suns’ playoff pursuit that much harder with six games to go, coasting past Phoenix 105-91 on Saturday night. The Spurs officially clinched the Southwest Division, but more importantly, stayed neck-and-neck with Oklahoma City for the No. 1 playoff seed in the Western Conference. San Antonio remains a game behind the Thunder with eight games remaining. “It doesn’t matter what we do. We’re going to end up where we end up. There’s no reason to sit there and study it,” Duncan said. “We’re going to play these games as best as we can. Win or lose, we’re going to end up where. We’re in a great position right now. Hopefully we can end on top. If we don’t, hopefully we’re number two and we’re happy with that.” Sebastian Telfair scored 21 points for Phoenix.

Lacrosse Continued from D1 In Saturday’s first game, Katie Alhart and Kiersten Hizak scored three goals apiece and Kyra Hajovsky added two for Bend United. Four different players were credited with an assist for the winners, and Allie Rockett and Hajovsky had three

draw controls each. Alhart scored another three goals in the win over West Salem, and Tori Landin also scored three for Bend United. Hizak and Rockett added two goals apiece, Kalie McGrew and Landin each had two draw controls, and Trinity Tankersley had two assists. “We get better each week,” said

Hansen. A full day of lacrosse at the Summit High stadium today includes a college men’s club match between the University of Oregon and Boise State following the Bend United-Roseburg game. The Pacific Northwest Collegiate Lacrosse League Division I South contest between the Ducks and the Broncos is set to start at 2 p.m.

Bradley Laubacher (high jump, 6-06), Ben Ritchey (long jump, 21-03.5) and William Butler (triple jump, 42-08) all were victorious in field events. The Storm also won the 400and 1,600-meter relays. The Bend High boys had an individual winner as well, as Joel Johnson claimed first place in the pole vault with a mark of 13-06. Summit senior Lucinda Howard paced the Storm girls with wins in the triple jump (35-07 3⁄4) and high jump (5-06). Sarah Frazier (200, 26.86) and Annie Sidor (pole vault, 10-6) added victories for the Storm, as did Summit’s 400- and 1,600-meter relay teams. The Bend High girls did not compete at the meet.

The Associated Press NEW YORK — The Ottawa Senators made it clear early and late with their fists and sticks that they aren’t going to be pushed around by the top-seeded New York Rangers. Matt Carkner got back into the Ottawa lineup, and made his presence felt right away by settling his club’s score in a one-sided fight with Rangers forward Brian Boyle. Chris Neil, known for his punches, delivered the final blow by scoring 1:17 into overtime to give the Senators a 3-2 victory in Game 2 on Saturday night. The series heads to Ottawa tied 1-1, and is assured of returning to New York for Game 5. “It’s an exciting time to get a goal, for sure,” said Neil, who had 13 goals and 178 penalty minutes during the regular season. “It doesn’t matter to us. Numbers, statistics, that’s not for us. We’re a team, this is a team game, and it’s all about getting a win at this time of year.” Neil got to a loose puck in front off a rebound and backhanded the puck past goalie Henrik Lundqvist. “We stressed getting pucks to the net, and getting traffic there, as well. That’s the kind of goals that you win with,” Neil said. “They are greasy goals, and we’ll take it. It’s big momentum for us and we’ve just got to keep on building on it.” The Rangers seemed poised to grab a 2-0 series lead when Brian Boyle scored in the third period, but Nick Foligno tied it with 4:37 left in regulation. Erik Karlsson also scored for the Senators, who exacted some revenge on Boyle for some shots he took at Karlsson during Game 1. A brawl led to the ejections of Carkner and New York forward Brandon Dubinsky just 2:15 in. Anton Stralman had the other goal for the Rangers. Game 3 of the best-of-seven series is Monday night in Ottawa, followed by Game 4 on Wednesday night. “We were 4 minutes away from winning the hockey game, and I still don’t think we played that poorly,” Rangers coach John Tortorella said. “But I do think we need to continue to attack.” Foligno forged a 2-2 tie

when he got to a loose puck off a shot by Zenon Konopka that got past Rangers defenseman Marc Staal and slammed it up and over the sprawling Lundqvist from the edge of the crease. Boyle was in line to be the star of the game when he fired in a shot from the slot, as he was being knocked sideways by a hit from Jesse Winchester. That gave the Rangers their second lead, 21 at 2:41 of the third. Craig Anderson made 27 saves, all in regulation, to earn the win for the eighthseeded Senators. Lundqvist stopped 29 shots.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, APRIL 15, 2012

Race Continued from D1 “The story of that race isn’t that Alberto Salazar got first and Dick Beardsley got second,” says Salazar, who held off his pursuer in what still equals the event’s third-closest finish. “It’s that these two guys fought it out the whole way and finished within two seconds of each other. That’s what people remember.” Yet the more compelling story is what the two rivals have survived since. The 56year-old Beardsley was battered by a series of physical torments that led to drug addiction and five years’ probation for prescription forging and possession. And the 53year-old Salazar was brought back from the dead five years ago after a heart attack deprived his brain of oxygen for 14 minutes. “There’s probably hardly a day when I don’t remember that I’m lucky to be alive,” says Salazar, whose reflective book, “14 Minutes,” has just been published, and who will be joined by Beardsley today for a discussion and signing at the Boston Public Library in Copley Square. Thirty years ago, both of them were in their prime. Salazar, who had qualified for the 1980 Olympic team that was kept home because of the U.S. boycott of the Moscow Games, already had won two New York City marathons by age 23, and Beardsley had dead-heated with Inge Simonsen in the inaugural London race a year earlier. Yet few if any observers predicted the two would be alone at the front in Boston that day. “I had high expectations for myself,” says Beardsley, who was ranked fifth in the world. “But nobody else did.”

A different plot? The storyline anticipated a showdown between Bill Rodgers, the four-time champion, and Salazar, his former Greater Boston Track Club teammate. But Rodgers, who was running his fourth 26miler in as many months, blistered early and faded on a 68-degree afternoon that felt much warmer in the bright sunshine. “It was the classic dying of a marathoner,” he said that day. Once they hit the Newton hills, Salazar and Beardsley were alone. Though both were making their Boston debuts, they knew the ups and downs of the course by heart from training on them. “Run the uphills hard and the downhills harder,” Bill Squires, who had mentored

Choking Continued from D1 “Barry’s game was bat speed,” said Pedroia, the 2008 American League MVP with Boston. “Other guys want to have extension. I’m sure they try it out in the (batting) cages, but they’re just not comfortable with it. I think guys don’t choke up because striking out has become acceptable since pitchers are so good now.” Rollins, the 2007 National League MVP with Philadelphia, never had a pronounced choke on the bat until moving up ever so slightly this season. Perhaps he noticed the hitter in front of him, Placido Polanco, and the one behind him, Hunter Pence, choking up. “I started because Barry Bonds had always done it,” Pence said. “I’ve done it since I was 12. I don’t feel comfortable on the bottom. Most guys think I’m unorthodox. You have to hit the way you feel best. There’s no one way to do it. Hitting is fluid.” Polanco is a career .301 hitter and has always been one of the toughest batters to strike out. Choking up helps him put the ball in play and makes him a prototypical No. 2 hitter. “I feel good doing it and I have more bat control,” Polanco said. “I don’t know why other guys don’t do it.” Jose Reyes offers one explanation. “I don’t do it because my bat is not that big,” Reyes said. “My bat is 33½ inches and if I choke up, it’ll be smaller and I won’t be able to reach the outside pitch.” Hard to argue with Reyes, a four-time All-Star with the New York Mets before going to the Miami Marlins this past offseason. He led the NL with

Marathon advises inexperienced to sit this one out

The Associated Press

Alberto Salazar, winner of the 1982 Boston Marathon, holds up the arm of runner-up Dick Beardsley, right, at the finish line of the race on April 20, 1982, in Boston.

Salazar during his GBTC days, told Beardsley, whom he had prepped for the race. Beardsley, so closely stalked by Salazar that he could see his shadow, had hoped to shake him coming off Heartbreak but could not. “We were like Siamese twins,” he recalls. As they came down Beacon Street for the final four miles, both men were cramping yet kept pushing. Salazar, who had reckoned that his track speed would be decisive along the flats, could not overtake Beardsley, and Beardsley could not drop him. It was an epic toe-to-toe race as the crowds jamming the sidewalk shouted their encouragement. “They weren’t cheering for Alberto,” says Beardsley. “They weren’t cheering for me. They were cheering for both of us.” Just before Kenmore Square, Beardsley was sideswiped by the press bus. Then, as Beardsley’s right hamstring seized up, Salazar went by him. Stepping into a serendipitous pothole allowed Beardsley to straighten the leg, though, and he gave chase. But just as he was catching up to Salazar before the final

dash down Ring Road to the Prudential Center, Beardsley was blocked by a police motorcycle. “I never used (the mishaps) as an excuse,” he says. “I caught up to Alberto and I just got outkicked.” Salazar finished in 2 hours, 8 minutes, 52 seconds, shattering the course mark of 2:09:26 that Japan’s Toshihiko Seko had set a year earlier. Beardsley was timed at 2:08:54. “I saw the clock reading 2:08-something and I heard Dick-B ea rd sley- s econdplace,” Beardsley recalls, “and I thought, ‘Am I having a nightmare here?’ ”

To the limit It was the first time in history that two men had run under 2:09, and their marks still rank as the fourth and fifth fastest by Americans at Boston, following Ryan Hall (2:04:58 last year and 2:08:41 in 2010) and Bob Kempainen (2:08.47 in 1994). “What could I have done differently?” says Beardsley, who ran Boston 10 years ago to mark the 20th anniversary of his historic race with Salazar. “Nothing I could have done differently.” He had forced the victor to deplete himself utterly.

“They still do what they want to do. Pride has a lot to do it with it. I think it’s what they are most comfortable with. Let me put it that way, I didn’t have a problem when I had two strikes on me, I felt comfortable choking up. A lot of guys don’t feel comfortable doing it. A lot of guys, it’s out of their comfort zone.” — Atlanta Braves hitting coach Terry Pendleton, on why major leaguers don’t choke up on their bats very often

a .337 average last season. But bat size is not an issue for Polanco, who also uses a 33½-inch model. Bonds used a 34-inch bat and choked up an inch, giving him less reach than Reyes. Bonds compensated for his choking up by moving closer to the plate. Hitting coaches don’t stress choking up in the majors because most guys are not open to making dramatic changes once they have reached the highest level. “They have it ingrained in their head that they’re quicker that way and they have more whip that way and they have more power,” Phillies hitting coach Greg Gross said. “I don’t agree with it, but they don’t do it.” Gross played several seasons in Philadelphia with Mike Schmidt, the Hall of Fame third baseman who hit 548 career homers. Schmidt was one of the most openminded hitters of his era. He often tinkered with his swing and stance and made necessary adjustments, including choking up when he had to make contact to move runners along. Few players these days think like Schmidt. “For most of the players today, a strikeout is just an out,” Gross said. “That’s the way the game has evolved. You don’t have to move up very far

on the bat and you have more control of the bat and I believe you would have more times making more solid contact.” Terry Pendleton, a longtime hitting coach for Atlanta and a former MVP with the Braves, also favors choking up. He suggests it to hitters but usually is ignored. “They still do what they want to do,” Pendleton said. “Pride has a lot to do it with it. I think it’s what they are most comfortable with. Let me put it that way, I didn’t have a problem when I had two strikes on me, I felt comfortable choking up. A lot of guys don’t feel comfortable doing it. A lot of guys, it’s out of their comfort zone.” Like Gross and others, Pendleton does not understand why hitters don’t try everything possible to improve their chances at the plate. Choking up “is a lost art,” he said. “It gives you better bat control, gives you an opportunity to wait longer for a pitch and gives you better opportunity to react to a pitch, but it doesn’t seem anybody wants to do it.” In Detroit, Lloyd McClendon works with some of the best hitters in the league. The Tigers have Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder in the middle of their lineup and Jhonny Peralta batting behind them. McClendon tells his hitters

BOSTON — With temperatures expected to rise into the high 80s during Monday’s Boston Marathon, race organizers are advising inexperienced runners and those with medical conditions to sit this one out and warning those who do run to be extra careful with the heat. “This is not a day for personal bests,” said Pierre d’Hemecourt, one of the race’s medical directors. “This is a time to slow down and not take any risks.” In a news conference to address concerns over forecasts calling for temperatures expected to rise to 88 degrees at the Back Bay finish line by afternoon, officials from the Boston Athletic Association offered a deferment for runners that would allow those who registered this year to run next year instead. “For many people, running the Boston Marathon is a once-in-a-lifetime experience,” B.A.A. executive director Tom Grilk said on Saturday. “We don’t want people to feel they have to run, because perhaps it’s not the wisest decision under these conditions.” — The Associated Press

Grandma’s,” says Beardsley. “I’ve never been so mentally and physically beat up as I was in Boston. But I had made a commitment and I wasn’t going to back out. Mentally, it was the hardest race I’ve ever run.” Achilles’ tendon problems followed, along with a 30thplace showing in New York, where Salazar out-sprinted Mexico’s Rodolfo Gomez for his third consecutive crown. He was America’s undisputed king of the road, inheriting the mantle worn by Frank Shorter and Rodgers. “I wanted to be the best,” Salazar says. “I wanted to win a gold medal. I wanted to set world records.” So with the Los Angeles Olympics on the horizon, he pushed himself relentlessly, training through pain and fatigue. “I was so driven to succeed,” he muses. “It was more like a calling in that I had to do it, I wanted to do it, I was driven to do it.” That drive became nearly a narcotic obsession, Salazar later admitted. “I lived a life of extreme athletic excess, as far gone, in my way, as a drug addict or alcoholic,” he wrote in “14 Minutes” with co-author John Brant. Despite bronchitis, Salazar ran in the inaugural world championships in Helsinki in 1983 and finished last in the 10,000 meters. After recovering from a stress-fractured foot to make the Olympic marathon team behind Pete Pfitzinger, he slogged in 15th on a hot day at the Games. “You could say that I choked at the Olympics but I never quit,” Salazar recounted to Brant in “Duel in the Sun.” From there, though, his career was sabotaged by what Salazar now believes was exercise-induced asthma. “It was a lot more fun at the beginning of my career,” he says. “At the end it wasn’t fun at all. It was agonizingly frustrating.”

“You pushed me harder than anybody’s ever pushed me in my life,” said Salazar, who had Beardsley join him on the award stand before the winner went to the medical tent, where six bags of saline fluids were pumped into a desiccated body that the attending physician likened to a potato chip. Beardsley did not join Salazar in the tent but later thought he should have. “I don’t know what it’s like to go through a hamburger grinder,” he says, “but it’s got to be pretty close after going through that race.” The two men met again that fall in New York for a rematch that wasn’t. Just two months after Boston, Beardsley had run Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, Minn., where he had set the course mark a year earlier. This time the race organizers, hoping for a world record, brought in a rabbit. “Probably the biggest mistake I made was running

He made one more bid for the Games in 1992 but dropped out of the trials after seven miles with a sore Achilles’ tendon. “It was obvious to me, you’re done,” said Salazar, who went to work full time for Nike. By then, Beardsley already was retired and had been undergoing his personal ordeal for several years. It began with a 1989 farm accident, when he was mangled by a tractor’s power takeoff shaft while loading corn and ended

to choke up depending on situations. “We really implement it with two strikes, choking up, spreading out and putting the ball in play, particularly with runners in scoring position,” McClendon said. “Even Miguel Cabrera, who is probably the best hitter in baseball, with two strikes, he spreads out. “You don’t see it as much because so many guys are so concerned with hitting the ball out of the ballpark, but there’s a time with a runner on third, less than two outs and the infield back, you have to put the ball in play. We

really stress that kind of ball.” McClendon’s influence worked on Curtis Granderson, who spent a few seasons with the Tigers before going to the New York Yankees. In a lineup that features sluggers Alex Rodriguez, Robinson Cano and Mark Teixeira, Granderson led the Yankees in home runs last season with 41. “I still find myself doing it with two strikes,” Granderson said about choking up. “It’s not a lot, so it’s not visual and people don’t recognize it.” Then there are hitters like the Phillies’ Shane Victorino. “Everybody says to do what

Happy to be alive

up with torn leg ligaments and tendons, five broken ribs and a fractured wrist. Between summer 1992 and the following winter, Beardsley was hit by a truck while training in the snow, was involved in two car accidents, and fell down a flight of stairs. Multiple back and knee operations led to his becoming hooked on painkillers. “As bad as the farm accident was, it was a walk in the park compared to that (addiction),” says Beardsley, whose foundation assists addicts who cannot afford 12-step treatment programs. “I would never want to go through it again. My biggest regret was what I put my family through.” Salazar’s near-death experience seemed to come out of nowhere. One moment he was walking with his athletes across the Nike campus in Oregon, discussing lunch options. When he came to, he was in the hospital after having been clinically dead. Timely CPR at the scene, defibrillation en route to the hospital and his own exceptional conditioning helped Salazar miraculously emerge without brain damage. “Five days a week I’ll walk by that spot,” says Salazar, who had been given the last rites in 1978 after he had collapsed at the Falmouth Road Race. “And 90 percent of the time I’ll say thank you, God, for keeping me around. I look at every day as gravy.” The man who says he never has been one to look over his shoulder does not dwell on the one race he ran that everyone remembers. “I’m here now,” says Salazar, who has coached top domestic distance runners such as Kara Goucher, Dathan Ritzenhein and Galen Rupp. “Whatever time I have left, it doesn’t really matter what I did 30 years ago.” After his years of addiction, Beardsley, who does motivational speaking, also savors living in the moment. “When I close my talks I always tell the audience to do four things every day,” he says. “Wake up with a smiling face, enthusiasm in your voice, joy in your heart, and faith in your soul.” He and Salazar each has run a far more demanding marathon since their unforgettable meeting in 1982, and they have come to have an even deeper appreciation for each other. “It doesn’t matter who was first or second,” concludes Salazar. “Who cares? It’s, ‘What can we do with the rest of our lives?’ ”

you did in Little League, but the game is obviously different than Little League,” he said. Imagine if Barry Bonds felt the same.

DAVID BROOKS

The two economies

he creative dynamism of American business is astounding and a little terrifying. Over the past five years, amid turmoil and uncertainty, American businesses have shed employees, becoming more efficient and more productive. According to The Wall Street Journal on Monday, the revenue per employee at S&P 500 companies increased from $378,000 in 2007 to $420,000 in 2011. These efficiency gains are boosting the American economy overall and American exports in particular. Two years ago, President Obama promised to double exports over the next five years. The U.S. might actually meet that target. As Tyler Cowen reports in a fantastic article in The American Interest called “What Export-Oriented America Means,” American exports are surging. Cowen argues that America’s export strength will only build in the years ahead. He points to three trends that will boost the nation’s economic performance. First, smart machines. China and other low-wage countries have a huge advantage when factory floors are crowded with workers. But we are moving to an age of quiet factories, with more robots and better software. Then there is the shale oil and gas revolution. In the past year, fracking, a technology pioneered in the United States, has given us access to vast amounts of U.S. energy that can be sold abroad. Europe and Asian nations have much less capacity. As long as fracking can be done responsibly, U.S. exports should surge. Finally, there is the growth of the global middle class. When China, India and such places were first climbing the income ladder, they imported a lot of raw materials from places like Canada, Australia and Chile to fuel the early stages of their economic growth. But, in the coming decades, as their consumers get richer, they will be importing more pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, planes and entertainment, important American products. His work leaves the impression that there are two interrelated American economies. On the one hand, there is the globalized tradable sector — companies that have to compete with everybody everywhere. These companies, with the sword of foreign competition hanging over them, have become relentlessly dynamic and very (sometimes brutally) efficient. On the other hand, there is a large sector of the economy that does not face this global competition — health care, education and government. Leaders in this economy try to improve productivity and use new technologies, but they are not compelled by do-or-die pressure, and their pace of change is slower. In politics, we are beginning to see conflicts between those who live in Economy I and those who live in Economy II. Republicans often live in and love the efficient globalized sector and believe it should be a model for the entire society. They want to use private health care markets and choice-oriented education reforms to make society as dynamic, creative and efficient as Economy I. Democrats are more likely to live in and respect the values of the second sector. They emphasize the destructive side of Economy I streamlining — the huge profits at the top and the stagnant wages at the middle. They want to tamp down some of the streamlining in the global economy sector and protect health care, education and government from its remorseless logic. Republicans believe the globalized sector is racing far out in front of government, adapting in ways inevitable and proper. If given enough freedom, Economy I entrepreneurs will create the future jobs we need. Democrats are more optimistic that government can enhance the productivity of the global sectors of the economy while redirecting their benefits. They want to use Economy I to subsidize Economy II. I don’t know which coalition will gain the upper hand. But I do think today’s arguments are rooted in growing structural rifts. There’s an urgent need to understand the interplay between the two different sectors. — David Brooks is a columnist for The New York Times. John Costa’s column will return.

• A revival in U.S. energy production upends expectations and may change the political game By Jad Mouawad • New York Times News Service he reversal of fortune in America’s energy supplies in recent years holds the promise of abundant and cheaper fuel, and it could have profound effects on what people drive, domestic manufacturing and America’s foreign policy. Cheaper fuel produced domestically could reduce the cost of shipping and manufacturing, trim heating and cooling bills, improve the auto market and provide tens of thousands of new jobs. It might also pose new environmental challenges, both predictable and unforeseen, by damping enthusiasm for clean forms of energy and derailing efforts to wean the nation from its wasteful energy habits. But for Americans battered by rising gasoline prices, frustrated by the dependence on foreign oil, skeptical of the benefits or practicality of renewable fuels and afraid of nuclear power, the appeal of plentiful domestic oil and

gas could far outweigh the costs. Just a few years ago, the dominant theme in discussions about energy was of declining production and the fear of running out of oil. Even today, political tensions in the Middle East, particularly in the Persian Gulf, have fanned fears of supply disruptions that are keeping prices high. But a new boom in energy production in recent years has upended these expectations in record time. High energy prices led to a wave of successful oil and gas exploration in North America, including in fields that were deemed uneconomical only a few years ago. Using techniques like horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, oil companies are tapping into deeply buried reserves in shale rocks and in the ocean’s depths. The surge in energy prices, along with a recession and new government rules that tightened fuel-economy standards, led to a sharp cutback in gasoline consumption. This de-

Natural gas

cline in demand in the last five years reversed decades of almost uninterrupted growth that made the United States the world’s top energy consumer, accounting for one in every four barrels of oil burned around the globe. The North American energy revival is primarily the result of so-called unconventional sources of energy — like shale oil and shale gas across the United States, oil sands in Canada and deepwater production in the Gulf of Mexico. In the last five years, the United States and Canada combined have become the fastest-growing sources of new oil supplies around the world, overtaking producers like Russia and Saudi Arabia. “The transformation unfolding in North America represents a potentially decisive shift in the history of energy,” Rex Tillerson, the chairman and chief executive of Exxon Mobil, who is not usually given to hyperbole, said in a speech in Houston last month. See Energy / F6

Increased energy production and declining consumption of oil have brought the United States closer to independence from foreign oil, a goal that has tantalized presidents since Richard Nixon. In North Dakota, left, and New Mexico, right, natural gas and oil production has picked up speed.

Spear tops competition for circuit court

n the election to replace retiring Deschutes Circuit Court Judge Michael Sullivan, voters canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go wrong. Four local lawyers are seeking the position in the May

15 election, and each one could win our endorsement if the competition were not so impressive. That said, voters must make a choice, and our preference goes to Thomas J. Spear, 50, an attorney with DeKalb & Associates since 2010. Spear wins our endorsement because of the breadth of his experience, both in law and in other pursuits, as well as his experience as a pro-tem judge. Spearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice at DeKalb includes murder and other criminal cases, domestic relations and intellectual property. Seventy percent has been indigent defense. Previously he spent 12 years as a deputy district attorney in Yamhill and Deschutes counties. Before launching his legal career, Spear earned a degree in chemistry at Santa Clara University and served for five years on submarines in the U.S. Navy. While going to law school at night at Lewis & Clark Northwestern School of Law, he worked part time for Portland General Electric as a hazardous materials supervisor. Spear also has relevant judicial experience, serving as a Judge Pro Tempore in Deschutes County Circuit Court since 2007, where he has handled more than 100 trials involving small claims, landlord-tenant conflicts and traffic cases. His community involvement includes instructing a local high school mock trial team and coaching youth soccer and basketball. In describing what sets him apart from his opponents, Spear cited his judicial experience, as well as his military, scientific and patent law background. The May 15 ballot will also include Beth Bagley, Andy Balyeat and Aaron Brenneman. If no one receives more than 50 percent of the vote, the top two vote-getters will compete in November. Bagley, 38, has been an assistant district attorney in Deschutes County since 2002, where she is now a supervising attorney and team leader. She spent one year as a public defender in southwest Oregon after earning her law degree from the University of Minnesota Law School in Minneapolis, and she started her prosecutorial career in Coos County. She is a member of the Bend-La Pine School Board as well as several other community organizations, including PTA, mock trial and Cascade Women Lawyers. Bagley says a seat on the bench would allow her to bring together two things she values: public service and community involvement. She is an eloquent spokesperson for the role of a judge to do good, making decisions that have a positive impact on the community. She believes her experience as a prosecutor has trained her well to make good judg-

Balyeat, 52, has a wide variety of legal experiences, including significant work on civil as well as criminal cases across the state and in federal courts. He earned his law degree at Ohio Northern University Pettit College of Law and is the managing partner of Balyeat & Eager, LLP. His clients include Mt. Bachelor and several other ski areas, as well as a variety of individual clients. Balyeat has worked extensively on elder law issues and has frequently been selected to mediate or arbitrate conflicts. His community activities include coaching basketball and serving on the foundation boards of the Bend Park & Recreation District and the Mt. Bachelor Sports Education Foundation. In addition to his wide variety of legal experience, Balyeat says his strength is his ability to listen, to appreciate both sides of an argument and to be fair and impartial. Brenneman, 39, is the chief deputy district attorney in Crook County, and earlier practiced law with DeKalb & Associates in Bend, where he focused on criminal defense. Raised in Alaska, he earned his law degree from Willamette University College of Law. Brenneman says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been encouraged to run for judge because of his reputation as being fair and even-tempered. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been involved in numerous local organizations, including mock trial, Rotary, Boys & Girls Club and Saving Grace. Bagley is thoughtful and wellspoken, and her passion for community and her experience as a prosecutor would serve her well on the bench. Balyeat brings broader experience, particularly on the civil side, and his work in a variety of courts and as a mediator would be an excellent foundation for a career as a judge. Brenneman is a solid candidate, but lacks the broad experience and eloquent passion that make the others shine. Spear gets our vote, however, for three reasons: He has an extensive background in both criminal and civil law, his scientific and military background add to his capacity to understand complex cases, and his experience as a pro-tem judge shows he can already do the job.

My Nickelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Worth A park bond, now?

Left out

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disturbing that the Bend Park & Recreation District is moving forward with a $31 million bond measure partly based on a telephone survey showing support for conservation measures that arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t included, with the exception of Mirror Pond, in their wish list. Most items included on their wish list, like the ice skating rink and land acquisition, were not in favor with those surveyed. This would be like the city of Bend touting a bond issue for building a new city hall based on a survey that showed public support for increased fire protection. The most disturbing item on the the Bend park district wish list is $11 million for additional land purchases. After all they just purchased a parking lot with no clear purpose in mind and now want to spend $5.4 million from the bond issue on it for an ice rink and a new roundabout. So what happens after the future $11 million in parking lot acquisitions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; another bond issue to develop them? The park district deserves praise for whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been accomplished over the last decade or so, but the commissioners seem to have lost sight of the bigger picture and other financial issues facing us. Bend voters should consider the very real probability that we will soon be asked to increase our property taxes for additional funds for public safety. Unless youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re willing to pay for both, decide which is more important â&#x20AC;&#x201D; increased funding for fire and police or this questionable random land purchase and development plan.

The March 29 article that recognized honorees at the Red Cross Heroes Breakfast was a good article with one major omission. The article identified Drs. Randy Jacobs and Anita Kolisch and registered nurse Joan Goodwin as being with the (generic) â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mobile Medical Unit, which provides medical care to homeless people.â&#x20AC;? It is actually the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Central Oregon Veterans Outreach (COVO) Mobile Medical Unit.â&#x20AC;? The article identified Bobbie Bourne with Red Cross, Tyler Kirk with the Redmond Police Department, Lyle and Judy Hicks with Jakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Restaurant and Leo Gonzalez with the Terrebonne Boys and Girls Club. Recognition of their contributions was well deserved. But recognition of the veterans community got left out of the article. The COVO Mobile Medical Unit was (and is) made possible by donations of time, money, equipment and supplies by the local veteran community, veterans organizations and other community organizations and businesses. It deserves to be recognized as such. When a patient comes to the COVO Mobile Medical Unit they are not asked if they are a veteran. They are asked, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What can we do for you â&#x20AC;&#x201D; how can we help?â&#x20AC;? There is a spark inside someone who signs on a dotted line agreeing to die voluntarily for their country. When their term of service ends and they are no longer in military, that spark does not die out. It still burns inside. Veterans continue to care passionately for their country. The COVO Mobile Medical Unit is a wonderful example of veterans

continuing to serve their country. Chuck Hemingway Central Oregon Veterans Outreach

Trapping is wrong In all the debate over trapping, I have read trapperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accounts which claim that animals caught in traps feel no pain and that they do not suffer. Years ago I was accidentally caught in a huge conibear trap that had been set for beaver in a stream near my home. The trap snapped onto my left wrist, and the pain I experienced was excruciating. I had to drive myself to a neighborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house for help and even after the trap was finally removed, the pain did not stop. My left hand was paralyzed, and it was nine months before I regained complete use. Meanwhile, the pain was unrelenting, and I suffered for several weeks before it began to let up. I sustained severe nerve damage to my wrist, and 15 years later I can still feel the effects. I completely understand how the pain would drive a trapped animal to chew off its own leg in an attempt to escape. If anyone other than a licensed trapper willfully inflicted this kind of pain and suffering on an animal, they would go to jail. Wanting to ban trapping is not just about keeping our pet dogs out of traps; it is about saving thousands of Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wildlife from suffering pain, and an agonizing death, at the hands of a few people in the name of â&#x20AC;&#x153;sport.â&#x20AC;? Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wildlife belongs to all Oregonians, not just to a few to torture and kill for fun and a few dollars profit. In my opinion, trapping is legally sanctioned animal abuse.

Whaddya zinc? Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s say goodbye to the good old penny By Daniel Akst Newsday

â&#x20AC;&#x153;O

Canada,â&#x20AC;? how did such a great big loonie zone ever get so sensible? The loonie, of course, is the nickname of the Canadian dollar â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which is pretty strong, by the by. Just like the Canadian banking system, unlike some others I prefer not to name. It turns out that bilingualism is a pretty good thing as well, making people smarter and more resistant to dementia. Many Canadians speak both English and French, admittedly with weird accents, and perhaps this is one source of the mysterious northern advantage. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even get me started on the Canadian health system, which is better and cheaper than ours. (Then again, so is nearly

everyone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.) The latest crushing advance for the juggernaut of rationality next door is the abolition of pennies. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right, Canada is simply doing away with them this fall, saving the government 11 million loonies â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about 11 million smackers, American â&#x20AC;&#x201D; each year. Nobodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s measured the mental health benefit to average Canadians, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll wager itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big. Pennies, like most coins, are a pain in the neck, only more so because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re worthless. Canada thus joins a growing list of no-nonsense nations that have abolished the one-cent coin, including Australia, Britain, New Zealand and Norway. The Canadians noticed that their penny â&#x20AC;&#x201D; made largely of steel â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was costing them 1.6 cents to produce,

which of course was ridiculous. Not to mention that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only worth 5 percent of its value in 1858, when it was introduced. In other words, it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy a darned thing, so why bother? Here in the United States, the penny also costs more than a penny to produce, but we do everything in a big way. Coinupdate.com, a website for collectors, figures it costs us 2.4 cents to make each one. (Maybe we can save a few bucks by getting the Canadians to make them for us.) Countries are supposed to enjoy a little windfall from issuing currency; the difference between the cost of producing a coin or bill and the face value is known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;seignorage.â&#x20AC;? But in this case, Uncle Sam gets negative seignorage. In economics, the term for this is â&#x20AC;&#x153;insane.â&#x20AC;? But eliminating the penny just

isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the American way. For any Canadians who might be reading this and somehow havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had their fill of schadenfreude in connection with us, American pennies are made largely of zinc. And in this country we have the zinc lobby. But in fairness, getting rid of the penny might make us more dependent on the nickel (mostly copper), which could be disastrous. Producing a nickel costs the government (are you ready for this?) more than 11 cents. And we wonder why Washington canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cut spending. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like the old joke: They lose a little on each one but make it up in the volume. So the nickel should go, too, although Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll admit it will make tipping a lot harder for me. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re worried youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll somehow get gouged absent Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most

insignificant coin, direct your eyes once again northward. The Canadians are about to solve all this neatly. Cash transactions will be rounded to the nearest 5 cents, but everything else (credit card purchases etc.) will be calculated down to the cent, just as it always was. People will be allowed to keep using pennies if they want â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that Canadian tolerance again! â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even though the government would prefer that folks turn them in for scrap, at which point they will no doubt be melted down in some environmentally correct manner and made into peace-keeping helmets. And so this is what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come to: the richest country in the world, eying a penniless neighbor with envy. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Daniel Akst is a member of the Newsday editorial board.

The new enemies of the people I

n 2008, a mostly unknown Barack Obama ran for president on an inclusive agenda of “hope and change.” That upbeat message was supposed to translate into millions of green jobs, fiscal sobriety, universal health care, a resetting of Bush foreign policy, and racial unity. Four years later, none of those promises will be themes of his 2012 re-election campaign. Gas has more than doubled in price. Billions of dollars have been wasted in insider and subsidized wind and solar projects that have produced little green energy. Unemployment rates above 8 percent appear the new norm, when 5 percent in the past was dubbed a “jobless recovery.” From the Middle East to the Korean peninsula, the world seems on the brink. Modern racial relations are at a new low. If borrowing $4 trillion in eight years was “unpatriotic,” as Obama once labeled George W. Bush, no one quite knows how to term the addition of $5 trillion in new debt in less than four years. Obamacare is unpopular with the public. Its constitutionality now rests with the Supreme Court. After four years, the claims of “Bush did it” and “It might have been worse” grow stale. So re-election will rest not on a new agenda, or an explanation of what happened, but on a divide-and-conquer strategy. Trans-

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON lated, that means Obama will find fissures in the voting public over fairness, expand them, and then cobble together various angry partisans in hopes of achieving a bare majority. Such an us/them strategy is not new in American history. There are suddenly new enemies called the “one percent” — those who make more than $200,000 per year and who “do not pay their fair share.” Apparently in a zero-sum economy, this tiny minority has taken too much from the majority and thereby caused the four-year lethargy that followed the 2008 meltdown. Andrew Jackson, William Jennings Bryan and Franklin D. Roosevelt all ran, with varying success, against the selfish “rich.” Congress is also now a convenient enemy of the people. Although it was Democratically controlled in Obama’s first two years, and the Senate remains so, the new theme insists that a Republican House stops the Democrats from finishing all the good things they started. When support for 16 years of the New Deal had evaporated by 1948, Harry Truman ran successfully against a “do-nothing” Republican Congress that had blocked his own big-government

“Fair Deal” follow-up and thus supposedly stalled the economy. In 2009, Obama pushed through his health care plan by a narrow partisan margin in the House, despite constitutional questions about the individual mandate. Now, as the Supreme Court seems skeptical of the legality of Obamacare, the president seems to be running against “unelected” justices. That could work too. In 1968, Richard Nixon squeaked by Hubert Humphrey in a divisive campaign, in part by lambasting the activist Warren Court that had done everything from outlawing school prayer to supporting school busing. Team Obama has seized on the Democrats’ allegations of a “war on women,” waged by both Republican and Catholic grandees against federal subsidies of birth control. For the first time since the campaign of John F. Kennedy a half-century ago, the role of the Catholic Church in politics is suddenly a landmark issue. The president faults “Big Oil” and tension in the Middle East — not his own failure to develop vast new gas and oil reserves on public lands — for high gas prices. Jimmy Carter likewise blamed greedy oil companies and the Middle East in 1980, after gasoline prices spiked and lines formed at filling stations. Suddenly, after the Trayvon Martin tragedy and what may prove to be murderous white vigilantism in

Oklahoma, race again looms large. President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder have weighed in often on that issue. The former castigated police for acting “stupidly” in one incident, and more recently reminded the nation of the racial affinities between himself and Trayvon Martin. The latter blasted the nation’s reluctance to discuss race as cowardly, and alleged racial bias among his own congressional overseers. Race is always an explosive wedge issue. In 1964, Lyndon Johnson ran successfully in part on the need to expand civil rights, while in 1968 Richard Nixon found traction in the backlash against racial violence. If Obama can cobble together disaffected young people, greens, women, minorities and the poor — who all believe a nefarious “they” have crushed their dreams — then massive debt and deficits, high unemployment, sluggish growth and spiraling gas prices won’t decide the election. Lots of presidential candidates have run by identifying such enemies of the people, rather than debating the general state of the nation — sometimes successfully, sometimes not. But the problem with an us/them strategy is not just winning an election, but trying to put back together what was torn asunder. — Victor Davis Hanson is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.

Race is worth talking about with your kids By Petula Dvorak The Washington Post

hey call it spring break for a reason. Yes, I’m broken. I file this dispatch from an Alabama motel somewhere between Tuscaloosa and Birmingham. No, the children will not be back to school on time. The windshield of the van is shattered. Jumper cables and Mardi Gras beads are irrevocably tangled. And the slime on the floor of the car has become tidal. This was not what I had planned. “Staycation!” I declared, when we looked at the schedule and budget this year. But we were just days into the staycation when I made a different declaration. “New Orleans!” I announced. So my husband cleared the work decks, and we loaded the car in the middle of last week. We were giddy as we tapped out our old New Orleans address into the GPS. “19 hrs 27 mins,” the GPS mocked. Onward. The kids made pipe-cleaner and suction-cup monsters for the windows, we sang songs and played I Spy, 20 Questions and the license plate game. Then we passed Tysons Corner, Va., only about 15 miles from where we started. How did the pioneers — let alone our parents — do this before the iPad? By the time we got to Tennessee, I had violated every technology rule I have. The 7-year-old not only purchased Angry Birds Space but got a high score on it, while the 5-year-old mastered Temple Run. Then a charger broke and the screens went blank. I tried a differ-

ent tactic. “We are in Tennessee,” I told the boys. “Do you have any idea what happened here 44 years ago today? Someone shot and killed Dr. Martin Luther King.” My husband began to look uneasy. “Is this a conversation for little kids?” was written all over his face. “Yeah! And they were very bad people,” my 5-year-old said. “Dr. Martin Luther King said fight with only your mouth, no fists.” The car fell silent, as Dad and I widened our eyes. Thank you, District of Columbia public schools. We have always struggled with these conversations. Most white folks are scared to talk about race, and we aren’t any different. I worry that telling stories of oppression, racism, segregation and even slavery will taint the way our children see their friends of color. But I once again go back to the studies that tell us this is dangerous, a topic highlighted famously in the book “Nurtureshock.” Whether it’s the history of America, the obvious differences in neighborhoods and schools that our children see right before them or the case of Trayvon Martin, clamming up about race only creates a vacuum that misinformation can fill. “Colorblindness dictates that we should not notice or talk about race, and thus the right thing to do in polite company is to not acknowledge difference,” Rodolfo Mendoza-Denton, a social and personality psychologist at the University of California at Berkeley, wrote in a recent issue of Psychology Today. “The goal is noble: As Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. movingly said, we want to judge people ‘not by the

color of their skin, but by the content of their character.’” But kids notice skin color early on. And although we try to explain that skin color doesn’t matter, it does. Just ask Trayvon’s parents. So talking about it is the only way to teach. And what better way to do it than on a road trip? We got back into the car in Tennessee and talked about civil rights, and how the kids would feel if they couldn’t sit on the same bus as their friends or use the same drinking fountain. Or what if we were afraid to drive at night simply because of the color of our skin? What if we had to tell them not to wear hoodies? The rest of the drive was certainly more interesting. And when we got to New Orleans (finally), we talked about sugar plantations and slavery. A sugar-coated version, for sure, but it was a conver-

sation we hadn’t had before. It wasn’t perfect, I didn’t create world peace, but it was a start. Something you can do with 19 hours on your hands. In New Orleans, the boys rescued a turtle from the bike path at Audubon Park, sucked the head of a crawfish and learned to shuck a tail, ate po’ boys and observed that the windshield of a minivan cannot support the weight of a middle-aged dad who climbs on the car to pull a really great string of Mardi Gras beads off a tree branch. As we dragged our sweaty selves back to the car for the 19-hour drive back (which turned into 23 hours because we learned in Mississippi that we left a suitcase at the hotel and had to turn around), we knew it had been worth it. Broken windshield and all. — Petula Dvorak is a columnist for The Washington Post.

Obama fantasy budget leads to surprise tax hike By Ramesh Ponnuru Bloomberg News

“A

thunderclap of a speech,” the editors of The New York Times called it. President Barack Obama was certainly vigorous in attacking the House Republicans’ budget last week, as he was in attacking their budget last year. The problem for Obama is that all he has is drizzle for a policy. His budget plan, as his Treasury secretary admits, doesn’t solve the country’s long-term debt problem, and was unable to get a single vote in the House of Representatives. His allies in the Senate’s Democratic majority haven’t passed a budget for three years, or even attempted to pass one. The political bet seems clear enough: Voters may want the budget balanced, but they aren’t going to tolerate the steps needed to get there, and so Obama can win the debate by attacking the Republicans’ proposals and not offering real ones of his own. (It’s the same strategy Republicans have used against Obama’s healthcare plan.) The more interesting question is what Obama’s economic bet is. Could he be counting on having the flexibil-

ity to balance the budget in his second term in ways he cannot openly discuss now? Taken at face value, Obama’s arguments about the budget make little sense. He claims, for example, that his plan puts “annual domestic spending” on a path that takes it, as a share of the economy, to the low levels of the Eisenhower administration. That’s true only if we grant Obama a private language in which “annual domestic spending” excludes the country’s biggest domestic programs, such as Social Security and Medicare. It isn’t just his own policies that he misrepresents. He claims that the House Republican budget, written by Rep. Paul Ryan, leaves senior citizens having to pay for a bigger and bigger proportion of medical expenses over time. Actually, the Ryan plan is designed so that government support for seniors keeps up with medical costs (while also trying to harness the power of competition to lower those costs). Even under the worst-case scenario, the subsidies in the Ryan plan would grow no slower than Medicare spending would under Obama’s own plan. The president is on firmer ground in criticizing Ryan’s proposals for tax

policy and domestic discretionary spending. The Ryan budget charges the House Ways and Means Committee with writing a new tax code that raises slightly more revenue, as a share of the economy, than the historical average and that includes a top tax rate of 25 percent. It doesn’t tell the committee how to meet these goals, for example by specifying which tax breaks should go. There is no good argument for this selective specificity. It is probably also true, as Obama says, that Ryan’s budget sets an unrealistically low level for domestic spending outside of entitlements. But here’s the dilemma. We can’t maintain the country’s historic rate of taxation and its current entitlement structure. If you want significantly more non-entitlement domestic spending than Ryan provides, you either have to restrain entitlements even more than Ryan does or collect even more tax revenue than Obama has suggested, or both. When the Congressional Budget Office applies its economic assumptions to Ryan’s budget, it finds that it reaches a balance in the 2030s. But Obama’s public proposals don’t achieve a balance. Obama, you may recall, has said he wants to keep the bulk of President

George W. Bush’s tax cuts, allowing only those for high earners and investors to expire in 2013. But many Democrats have argued that he should let them all expire. If that is Obama’s plan, one could envision a strategy that gets him there without too much political suffering. He would continue to claim that he wants to avoid middle-class tax increases. He would win re-election. And then he would try to blame any increase in middle-class taxes on congressional Republicans, arguing that their insistence on extending all of the tax cuts left his party with no choice but to block any bill from passing. The advantage of this strategy is that it would yield a lot of deficit reduction without the need to get any legislation through Congress. It is thus more achievable than other deficit- reduction plans. But it amounts to raising middle-class taxes to avoid reining in middle-class entitlements. If a big, automatic tax increase is Obama’s plan for the start of his second term, it’s not a good plan. But it is more alarming to think that he has no plan at all. — Ramesh Ponnuru is a Bloomberg View columnist and a senior editor at National Review.

THOMAS FRIEDMAN

I am not Romney

ast week Politico reported that, ever since announcing his re-election bid, President Barack Obama’s campaign has been struggling to find a slogan to sum up his reason for running. He’s cycled through “Winning the Future,” “We Can’t Wait,” “An America Built to Last,” “A Fair Shot.” Bruce Newman, Bill Clinton’s message adviser, was quoted as saying of Obama: “He’s all over the place.” So far, the most accurate slogan for Obama’s campaign would have to be: “I’m not Mitt Romney.” And when you consider that Romney — a former liberal Republican governor — has spent the whole campaign disavowing his past, for the first time in history both candidates could legitimately run on the same slogan: “I’m not Mitt Romney.” And that’s our problem. Romney has embraced the Republican budget drawn up by Rep. Paul Ryan that proposes to shrink our long-term structural deficit in a way that not only would make the rich richer and the poor poorer but would deprive the country of the very discretionary spending required to do what we need most: nation-building at home. Sure, Ryan makes deep spending cuts to balance the budget in the long term. If I cut off both my thumbs, I’d also lose weight. But I’d also have a hard time getting another job. What do we need from a presidential candidate today? We need a credible plan to do three specific things: cut, tax and invest. As the economy improves, we need to cut spending, including all entitlement programs, to fix our long-term structural deficit. We also need to raise revenue through tax reform so we don’t just shred our safety nets and so we still have resources, not only for defense, but to invest in all the things that have made us great as a country: education, infrastructure, quality government institutions and government-funded research. Finally, the plan has to win bipartisan support, so the candidate advocating it not only wins the election but has a mandate to implement his plan afterward. The Ryan-Romney budget fails that test. As Maya MacGuineas, the president of the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, notes: It does not “protect the truly disadvantaged,” and it doesn’t put tax increases for the wealthy “on the table,” so it has zero chance of bipartisan support. Obama has proposed his own 10year budget. It is much better than Ryan’s at balancing our near-term need to revitalize the pillars of American success, by cutting, taxing and investing. But it does not credibly address the country’s long-term fiscal imbalances, which require cuts in Medicare and Social Security. So the president, too, lacks a longterm plan to cut, spend and invest at the scale we need in a way to win enough bipartisan support to make it implementable. This gets to my core difference with the president’s strategy. I believed he should have accepted his own Simpson-Bowles deficit commission because it offered a plan to cut and tax that was at the scale of the problem and enjoyed at least some GOP support, had the overwhelming backing of independents and even Nancy Pelosi, the minority leader, now says she felt “fully ready to vote for that.” If Obama had embraced the longterm deficit commission, he would have had a chance of combining it with some near-term stimulus — investments in infrastructure — that would have helped the economy and grow jobs. Without pairing it with SimpsonBowles, Obama had no chance of getting more stimulus. Obama says his plan incorporates the best of Simpson-Bowles. Not only is that not true, but it misses the politics. Republicans will never vote for an “Obama plan.” But had Obama embraced the bipartisan SimpsonBowles, and added his own stimulus, he would have split the GOP, attracted gobs of independents and been able to honestly look the country in the eye and say he had a plan to fix what needs fixing. He would have angered the tea party and his left wing, which would have shown him as a strong leader ready to make hard choices — and isolated Romney-Ryan on the fringe. Instead, Obama is running on a suboptimal plan — when we absolutely must have optimal — and the slogan “I’m not Mitt Romney.” If he’s lucky, he might win by a whisker. If Obama went big, and dared to lead, he’d win for sure, and so would the country, because he’d have a mandate do what needs doing. — Thomas Friedman is a columnist for The New York Times.

“Suddenly, a Knock on the Door” by Etgar Keret (FSG Originals, 208 pgs., $14 paper) By Carolyn Kellogg Los Angeles Times New York Times News Service file photo

Lifeboats that carried survivors of the sinking of the RMS Titanic are uploaded to the RMS Carpathia in the hours after the disaster. The largest ship afloat at the time, the Titanic sank in the north Atlantic on April 15, 1912, after colliding with an iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City.

Famous ship is launched anew for young readers “Titanic: Voices From the Disaster” by Deborah Hopkinson (Scholastic, 304 pgs., $17.99) By Susan Carpenter Los Angeles Times

Few tragedies have captivated generations like the Titanic. There’s something about the disaster’s enormity and unlikeliness, coupled with the hubris that brought it about and the horrors that came afterward, that have made the Titanic a subject of enduring fascination even 100 years since it sunk in April 1912, killing 1,496 of the 2,208 people aboard. With the centennial of the Titanic’s sinking being marked today, dozens of books are being released to commemorate it, including a nonfiction title for young readers from awardwinning author Deborah Hopkinson. “Titanic: Voices From the Disaster” is exactly as its title indicates. It’s a meticulous recounting of the disaster culled from the accounts of survivors and witnesses, amply illustrated with black-andwhite photos, handwritten ship’s logs, letters, menus and ice warnings sent from other ships that bring this eerie story to life in a way that words alone cannot. Though written for readers as young as 8, Hopkinson’s reporting is so rich with information that it will be equally fascinating to young readers and adults alike. Hopkinson opens the book with a succession of photos that help readers visualize the people onboard and the epic proportions of the ship that was believed to be unsinkable and was, at the time, the largest ever built. Many of the pictures were taken by an amateur photographer named Frank Browne, who traveled aboard the Titanic from London to Queenstown, Ireland, but disembarked before it ventured out into the Atlantic. It’s haunting to see pictures of the actual people aboard, knowing what awaited them just a few days later.

Hopkinson underscores the Titanic’s largeness with interesting tidbits about its layout and cargo as well as introductions to many of its key players, including the so-called millionaires’ captain Edward James Smith, wireless operator Harold Bride, stewardess Violet Jessop and dozens of passengers who were lucky enough to escape in a lifeboat. The morning before the ship’s sinking, Hopkinson slows the action. She quotes various passengers describing what they were doing and feeling in the hours leading to the boat’s impact. Whether they were innocently strolling the decks, swimming in the pool, attending church, reading books in the library or singing around the piano in a dining hall, many of them remarked on the chill air, but none was privy to the many, behind-the-scenes ice warnings that failed to reach the captain during the same time frame. As night falls and the ship hits the iceberg (a photo of which is used as one of the book’s many pictorial illustrations), Hopkinson slows the action even further, giving multiple passenger accounts of the impact and their reactions, which progressed from curiosity to chaos once it became clear the ship was taking on water and beginning to tilt.

The No. 1 girls’ detective agency “The Great Cake Mystery” by Alexander McCall Smith (Anchor Books, 77 pgs., $6.99) By Lisa McLendon McClatchy-Tribune News Service

For all the fans of Precious Ramotswe, Botswana’s No. 1 lady detective — and there are legions — and for all the kids who think it would be fun to solve mysteries, “The Great Cake Mystery” delivers a sweet, fun story about how Precious got her start detecting. There’s a thief stalking the school where Precious is a student — a thief with a sweet tooth. The thief is stealing cakes, bread with jam and

other sweet treats from the children’s lunches. The other children focus on a fellow student, assuming that because his love of sweets and habitually sugary fingers, he must be the thief. Precious knows not to jump to conclusions — and she also finds that knowing something and proving it are two different things indeed. The story is straightforward and simple, written with the same love for Botswana that infuses McCall Smith’s books for adults (the latest of which, “The Limpopo Academy of Private Detection,” is also out this month) and illustrated with charming woodcut-style images.

Hopkinson is a seasoned researcher and author of numerous nonfiction chronicles of the American experience. Her award-winning books include “Shutting Out the Sky: Life in the Tenements of New York, 1880-1924” and “Up Before Daybreak: Cotton and People in America.” She brings the same meticulous detail to “Titanic,” presenting the story in a suspenseful manner that will be easily understood by her intended audience. Although the many individuals she includes are difficult to keep straight, each one’s experience helps to flesh out the unfolding nightmare. Children are sure to relate to the many scenes of women and children being separated from husbands and fathers and to react even more viscerally to scenes reported from the water. One survivor described the ship’s sinking as sounding “like standing under a steel railway bridge while an express train passes overhead, mingled with the noise of a pressed steel factory and the wholesale breakage of china.” Even worse were the moans of those who perished in the water. Hopkinson sees the narrative through to passengers’ rescue by the Carpathia and the government hearings that led to safety standards still in place today, including sufficient lifeboats and safety drills. The book is anchored with photos of the sunken ship and detailed biographies of the book’s characters as well as letters, facts and figures. Much as the Titanic itself is a chilling symbol of overconfidence and complacency, “Titanic: Voices From the Disaster” is a compelling investigation that reveals the many facets of human nature as a horrific tragedy was faced.

If you have room in your heart, wallet or reading list for just one book of short stories this year, make it Etgar Keret’s “Suddenly, a Knock on the Door.” I don’t care that it’s only April: It’s a superlative collection, one that will easily stand up to all comers. Keret writes short fiction — often, very short. It’s astonishing what he can do in just two pages: go from funny to bizarre to touching to satiric to meta to surprising and surreal. There are 35 stories in this slender paperback, and sometimes they are just strange or sad or sweet enough to make you set the book down and walk away, to give them time to sink in. Take “Lieland,” in which Keret draws many of these elements together. Robbie, a lifelong liar, lies to cover up — for skipping class, going AWOL, being late for work — using some tragic element. A run-over dog, he realized, or a niece afraid of her brutal husband, elicited easy acceptance. His first lie involved getting beat up by a neighborhood kid who stole his money (he was supposed to buy his mom cigarettes but instead got himself ice cream). Years later, his mother appears in a dream and leads him to a portal into a blank white world — where the made-up neighborhood bully promptly appears and pounds him. In that white world, Lieland, the subjects of lies are made manifest, even the damaged dog. “It was a nice dog, and seemed happy to meet Robbie, who wished his lie had a little less pain and suffering in it,” Keret writes. That would be enough to close a story — a lesson, the smallest lie can hurt the innocent — but Keret goes on. He adds a magic gum ball machine, which throws Robbie back into the world where he peppers his lies with kittens and holidays. “(I)t was much harder to make up all the positive lies,” Robbie thinks ruefully. That too would be enough, but the story has yet another turn. Robbie discovers another liar, Natasha, and brings her to the white world; she too sees that her lies live, and she wants to tend them better (and he plans to be by her side). This is many things: It’s about lies and unexpected

consequences and about a man meeting his match. It’s about an imaginary world that’s swiftly, visually realized. Keret, a well-known cultural figure in Israel, took 10 years to put this collection together. In the interim, he’s gotten married, had a son, taken a teaching position at Tel Aviv University and cowritten and co-directed the feature film “Jellyfish,” which won the first feature award at Cannes in 2007. In interviews about “Suddenly, a Knock on the Door,” he has said stability and success slowed his short-story writing — that makes sense, since he began writing in a dark moment, after a close friend committed suicide. In 2005, Keret told the Believer that his stories are “like letters sent from the id to the superego.” That combination of unmediated extremes — imagination and control — is in these stories, often buffeted by winds of serendipity and chaos. In “Unzipping,” a woman discovers a tiny zipper under her lover’s tongue and tugs it to discover a former, different lover inside; she folds away the skin and carries on with the man she’s revealed. A lonely man eats breakfast in the same cafe day after day in “Healthy Start” when he is mistaken for someone else; enjoying the company, he plays along and finds himself standing in for a run of people, filling their needs — at least he is not alone. Some stories will speak clearly to people invested in contemporary Israel, with new wealth, Russian immigrants and a suicide bombing. Those references are glancing, however. Like fables and parables, most of these stories are not tied to a specific time or place. Keret’s satire may be local, but his ironies are global; this is a master storyteller, creating deep, tragic, funny, painful tales with scarcely more words than you’ve read in this review.

SUNDAY, APRIL 15, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Many shades of Dodger blue • Faithful fans will enjoy this flavorful pitch of baseball history in coffee-table book form “Dodgers From Coast to Coast: The Official Visual History of the Dodgers” introduction by Vin Scully, foreword by Tommy Lasorda (Skybox Press/ Abrams, 256 pgs., $40) By Jon Thurber Los Angeles Times

At the outset, let it be noted that this book is for the faithful, those who bleed blue, who stay at the game until the last out (whatever the inning) and who don’t think the day is complete at home until Uncle Vinny signs off with a cheery “good-night everybody.” “Dodgers From Coast to Coast: The Official Visual History of the Dodgers” is not an all-encompassing history, however, and the tone is far from objective. It has some wonderful bits of history and some glaring omissions. It is what it is, but that isn’t necessarily all bad. This coffee-table book is divided into nine chapters — you expected a different number in a baseball book? — and range from the early Brooklyn years to the Dodgers’ recent move of their spring training home from Vero Beach, Fla., to Arizona. There are two chapters on Brooklyn, including an essay by Roger Kahn (author of “The Boys of Summer”) and seven on the Dodgers in Los Angeles, mostly divided by decades. The pictures are often surprising. Look on Page 22 and you see a trio of men in a

mid-1950s photograph. Two of them are recognizable: The guy in the middle is Walter Alston, the Hall of Fame skipper of the Dodgers, and the guy on the left is a very young Vin Scully — the third man is Connie Desmond, another member of the Dodgers broadcast team. Several of the great players in recent Dodgers history also offer their reminiscences. There is Mike Scioscia, the catcher and fortress at home plate who, after his career, became an exceptional manager for the Angels, remembering the life lessons taught by the great Roy Campanella. There is Tommy Davis, who won National League batting titles in 1962 and 1963, reflecting on the pitching, speed and defense that were the hallmarks of the team in the 1960s. There is Eric Karros writing about the meaning to him and his father of being drafted by the Dodgers. Wally Moon remembers the “Coliseum Years” when his ability to hit to the short field in left made him a fan favorite for his “Moon Shots.” And Wes Parker remembering his manager Alston. Shawn Green talks about his personal agony during Game 1 of the 1988 World Series, the Kirk Gibson game. And there are some unexpected pleasures. Chapter 3, which records the Memorial Coliseum years from 1958 to 1961, has a section on a man named Danny Goodman, who was the team’s director of advertising and souvenirs.

You like Dodgers bobblehead dolls? Thank Goodman. You recall fondly the replica baseball cap you got at the stadium years before merchandising of apparel became big moneymakers for major league teams? Thank Goodman. The pictures recall the time when the Dodgers would fill the football stadium for baseball, and transistor radios were as vital as sunblock on a summer’s day. If you were on the 50-yard line for a baseball game, you needed to listen to Scully and his broadcast partner at the time Jerry Doggett, who handled most of the player interviews as well as the third and seventh innings of play-by-play. (Hard to imagine it now, but Scully once worked with a partner.) Skip into the section on the 1970s and you’ll find a history of the Dodger dog. The design of the book is punctuated with covers of old baseball programs, including the one for Roy Campanella Night at the Coliseum in 1958 sold at a price of 20 cents. There is also a ticket stub from 1965 when Sandy Koufax threw a perfect game

QUEST OF FAITH

‘Still’ continues Winner’s winding religious journey

against the Cubs. Cost of a reserved seat ticket to that one was $2.50. This is not an all-inclusive history, though, and some of the book seems oddly out of balance. There are sections on the usual suspects in Dodgers history: Branch Rickey (check), Jackie Robinson (check), Walter O’Malley (check), Koufax (check), Don Drysdale (check), Fernando Valenzuela (check), Mike Piazza (check), Tommy Lasorda (check), Hideo Nomo (check). But what about Maury Wills? The man who stole a still-astonishing 104 bases in 1962, won the National League MVP award that year and was, without doubt, the most electrifying offensive player in the team’s early years in L.A. continues to get scant mention in the Dodgers narrative. And, aside from what’s in the introduction, I found little on Scully and his overall importance to the team over the years. Perhaps there is the view that he is so much a part of us that we need no reminder. If so, that’s a shame and a dreadful oversight. For the faithful, those who weathered the bad teams in the late 1960s, the now-23-year drought since the last World Series appearance, the trading of Mike Piazza, Scioscia’s sad departure for the Angels, and, of course, the McCourt years, this book will probably not be a disappointment. But great books on the club in Los Angeles and on Scully — the linchpin who holds the history together from Brooklyn to Los Angeles — have yet to be written.

“Still: Notes on a Mid-Faith Crisis” by Lauren Winner (HarperOne, 272 pgs., $24) By John Timpane The Philadelphia Inquirer

In the last 10 years, Lauren Winner has taken her growing readership on a twisty-turny journey: that of her own religious quest. Raised in Reform Judaism, she converted to Orthodox Judaism during her first year in college, and she converted again to Episcopalianism in grad school. She earned her master’s in divinity in 2007 at the Duke University Divinity School, where she is now an assistant professor of Christian spirituality. Remarkably, she was ordained a priest in the Episcopal Diocese in Virginia only in December. All along the way, she wrote. She became a committed, insistent commentator on the religious scene, writing for high-profile venues such as Christianity Today and Beliefnet. And she wrote books. “Memoir,” written directly and candidly, with a touch of the poetic, has become her trademark. “Girl Meets God” of 2002, her best-known book, narrated her attempt to apply her former Judaism to her present Christianity. “Real Sex” of 2006 challenged the world on the importance of chastity; while not primarily a memoir, its arguments pulse with reference to her own life. “Still” adds another chapter to the ongoing book of herself. It’s a puzzling book at first, even disturbing, but in the end it earns our trust, in itself and in Lauren Winner. To read the subtitle, you might think it’s yet another loss-of-faith book, but it’s not. It’s more a triage-offaith book. One might think it’s yet another book about losing God and finding God again, but it’s not. It’s a story of losing yourself and being found by God, who, come

‘Bleu’ paints Nora Roberts does Impressionists it again in latest tale in a new light ‘THE WITNESS’

“Sacre Bleu: A Comedy d’Art” by Christopher Moore (William Morrow, 416 pgs., $26.99) By Jim Higgins Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Christopher Moore’s new novel blends diligently researched art history smoothly with his fevered, fiendish imagination. So smoothly, in fact, that you must never, EVER give this book to a docent who gives museum tours. But do give “Sacre Bleu” to anyone who likes tales of the Impressionists — especially comic, downand-dirty ones. Moore starts from real points — the prevalence of blue in the Impressionists’ paintings, and unexplained questions about the death of Vincent Van Gogh. He then spins a story of Bleu, a centuries-old muse who inspires painters, and the twisted Colorman, a nasty little shaman who creates the tubes of magical ultramarine that painters use in their greatest paintings. Bleu, the Colorman, the painters and their works are intertwined in a cycle of inspiration, passion, creation and suffering that frequently ends badly for the artists. I can’t remember another novel with so many syphilis jokes. Moore opens with Van Gogh’s final day but soon jumps to the novel’s true heroes, the fictional but entirely plausible baker and wannabe painter, Lucien Lessard, and his friend, the real and entirely dissolute artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Along the way, he brings on other familiar artists, including Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edouard Manet, James Whistler, Paul Gauguin, Georges Seurat and so on, many of whom have their encounters with Bleu. Moore sprinkles reproductions of their real artworks into the book, and stories of the conception of those works into his novel, adding cheeky captions to the paintings. Of the nude woman in Manet’s “Le Dejeuner sur l’herbe,” a character remarks, “Looks to

me like she’s deciding which of these two she’s going to bonk in the bushes.” To our amusement, Moore’s artists aren’t any more reverent with each other. Manet, entering a salon and seeing his American friend Whistler, calls out, “How’s your mother?” The kindhearted Lessard and the unabashedly rakish Toulouse -Lautrec make fine buddies and finer comedy, with Lessard frequently interrupting the artist in a brothel to pull him back into the plot. After Lessard nearly succumbs to a disaster, he wakes up to find Toulouse-Lautrec among the anxious at his bedside: “’Good God, Henri, is that smell coming from you?’ “’I was going to come right over as soon as I heard you were awake, but the girls insisted upon giving me a bath first. I sat vigil for you for a week, my friend.’ “’One sits vigil over the dying, not ten blocks away, on a pile of whores, out of his mind on opium and absinthe.’ “’Each grieves in his own way, Lucien.’” The Montmartre painters who had dealings with Bleu all have suffered memory lapses, leading Doctor Gachet, who also treated Van Gogh, to lecture Lessard and ToulouseLautrec on the dangers of their raw materials: “You know that oil colors can contain chemicals that can harm you? The mercury in vermilion alone could drive a man to what is called the ‘hatter’s madness.’ We all know someone who has been poisoned by lead white. Chrome from chrome yellow, cadmium, arsenic, all elements of the colors you use.” But the Colorman’s ultramarine is the most toxic color of all. As Lessard and ToulouseLautrec strive to unravel the Van Gogh mystery and end their own confusions, they face an ancient, formidable antagonist whose favorite happy endings include a dead painter.

“The Witness” by Nora Roberts (Putnam, 488 pgs., $27.95)

By Lezlie Patterson McClatchy-Tribune News Service

The indubitably talented Nora Roberts has done it again, proving once more that she is reigns supreme in the world of romance fiction. This is the esteemed author’s 200th book — one of five being released in 2012. This one is due out Tuesday. “The Witness” is vintage Roberts, with strong, compelling characters that are impossible to resist and who come to life the moment you meet them. The tragedy that is the focus of the plot happens in the opening scenes of the 488-page novel, and while there are no mysteries or secrets to keep the reader guessing, the strength of the characters and their interaction with each other is definitely strong enough to keep your interest beyond the final pages. Abigail is an intriguing heroine. Think Dr. Brennan (title character from the television show, “Bones”). She’s a brilliant woman, with a very literal mind who is uncomfortable with relationships of any sort. Brooks (who somewhat resembles FBI agent Booth on the television show) is fascinated by Abigail, and finds her social awkwardness charming. The delightful aspect of this book is that it captivates readers with the byplay and budding romance of the two very strong characters. The story excels based on the development of Abigail and Brooks, focusing on their relationship as it unfolds. It’s refreshing to watch these intriguing characters act like real people, who honestly

Weekly Arts & Entertainment Every Friday In

deal with each other without allowing petty problems or unnecessary misunderstandings get in the way. While these scenarios often set up compelling and passionate reconciliation scenes, Roberts’ writing, dialog and character development are so strong in this story that those usual plot devices just aren’t necessary. A quick summary: Abigail witnessed a crime as a teen-ager that put her life in danger. She’s spent her adulthood running, hiding and incognito. She moves to a small town in Arkansas, a n d falls in love with the sheriff there, despite an endearing reluctance, bafflement and uneasiness. Brooks wears her down, and makes her realize that loving him means a lifetime of happiness.

to find out, never lost you. After the shattering failure of her marriage, she realizes that “the enthusiasms of my conversion have worn off. … My belief has faltered, my sense of God’s closeness has grown strained.” It’s not a self-help book, although Winner does try certain things, such as taking up cooking again, to break out of her despond and reconnect to what’s important. And it’s not an inspirational book. Thoughtful, yes, muted, yes, deeply repentant, but in the end hardly shining or triumphant. Its three sections are “Wall” (the blank obstacle into which Winner runs); “Movement” (in which she seeks solace from her community); and “Presence,” in which she intuits a qualified awareness of the invisible, elusive God. Winner is in a hard-won better place, but all is far from solved. The book is a series of short essays on her depression and crisis after the failure in 2009 of her marriage of six years. After a few oblique remarks, her husband is seldom mentioned (although always respectfully), and Winner goes into no detail about the marriage itself. A great deal about that — the situation, the analysis, and the refusal to explain further — is unsettling. And there’s much that is unsettled about Lauren Winner. Some have suggested (unfairly) that, after all, she’s just too all-over-the-place, all these changes before 40, hardly anyone to trust with wisdom on love, life, or God. After reading “Still,” I feel like adapting something Samuel Jonson once said of a fellow poet: I’d just as soon pray with Lauren Winner as with anyone else. As all of us must learn, she realizes that, in the end, this story is not hers, and not about her. She plays a small role in a small chapter, much like the ones in “Still,” in a story that always, already, is about Another.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, APRIL 15, 2012

Energy Continued from F1 Ed Morse, head of global commodity research at Citigroup and a longtime energy analyst, says North America has the potential to become a “new Middle East.” “The reduced vulnerability of North America — and the world market — to oil price spikes also has deep consequences geopolitically, including the reduced strategic importance to the U.S. of changes in oil- and natural gas-producing countries worldwide,” Morse said in a recent 92-page report called Energy 2020. “Pressures toward isolationism in the U.S. will likely grow, with consequences for global stability that can only just begin to become understood.” “The only thing that could stop this is politics — environmentalists getting the upper hand over supply in the U.S., for instance,” the report said. The new supplies ensure that the United States will remain well entrenched in oil, but the continuing reliance on fossil fuels also carries significant environmental concerns — whether from the risk of offshore drilling, or the hazards, many still unknown, of hydraulic fracturing. It also means that greenhouse gas emissions will most likely increase, at least until carbon emissions are capped or new technology to store carbon dioxide underground is developed.

Supply and demand The glut of natural gas supplies cuts two ways on emissions. It has effectively put an end in the United States to any new investment in coal plants, which produce much more emissions. But it also makes the economics of alternative, noncarbon energy sources like wind power or solar power difficult to justify without public support and subsidies. Regardless of the environmental impact, there is no guarantee that new supplies will inevitably lead to lower gasoline prices, as proponents of unfettered domestic drilling argue. Oil is a global commodity with a price set on the global market. With rising demand around the world, particularly in emerging economies, and

instability in many oil-producing countries, many analysts predict global oil prices will remain volatile — and high — for many years to come. And with gasoline prices above $4 a gallon, the nation’s energy resources remain a polarizing topic, pitting Republicans against Democrats, environmentalists against oil companies, and conservationists against advocates of unfettered drilling. “It is remarkable how quickly perceptions have changed,” says Guy Caruso, the administrator of the U.S. Energy Information Administration from 2002 to 2008, who is now at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. “We may be in the early stage of this transformation, and clearly things could still go wrong.” Energy production is an inherently risky business, but recent history suggests that when resources are available they end up being developed. After the explosion of BP’s deepwater well two years ago in the Gulf of Mexico, leading to the biggest oil spill in American history, the Obama administration imposed a moratorium on offshore drilling. But it took only about a year for exploration and production to resume offshore. Cheaper energy costs — particularly for natural gas — would benefit a variety of domestic industries, like chemicals, pharmaceuticals and

fertilizers. The rise in natural gas production has already led many utility companies to shift their electrical production away from coal; it also calls into question talk of a nuclear revival in the United States. Economists say that ample gas supplies might also provide the basis for a resurgence of U.S. manufacturing, which has been battered by high energy costs for much of the last decade. Natural gas prices have fluctuated wildly in recent years, rising to $14 for a thousand cubic feet from $2 within a few years. The current glut, however, has driven prices back down again, to near $2 for a thousand cubic feet. With America becoming one of the top natural gas producers, some domestic companies might rethink moving parts of their business to countries with cheaper energy costs. (At current consumption rates, U.S. gas reserves would last at least 75 years, an estimate some experts say is conservative.) Lower natural gas costs would also have cascading benefits to other commercial sectors, like retailing. Shipping costs may be lower, particularly if transportation companies shift their fleets to natural gaspowered or electric vehicles. FedEx, for instance, has already been adding clean energy trucks to its fleet, including hybrid and all-electric delivery trucks in cities like Chicago.

Economic growth Citigroup estimates that as many as 3.6 million new jobs might be created by 2020 thanks to the energy boom. The current trade deficit might fall by 60 percent by the end of the decade from today’s level, according to the bank’s estimates, and the dollar could appreciate by as much as 5.4 percent as imports shrink. “In a world of high energy prices, the potential economic activity generated by this wave of new hydrocarbon production is extraordinary and should strongly boost national output, increase incomes, create wealth, stimulate consumption and create jobs,” according to Citigroup. Given how swiftly expectations have shifted to describe America’s energy prospects, however, some caution may be warranted. Opposition from environmental groups and concerns about climate change — which is caused by increased carbon emissions from fossil fuels — could lead to tighter regulation of petroleum products or derail infrastructure projects like pipelines. That is what has happened to the extension of the Keystone XL Pipeline, which its supporters say is needed to increase the import of oil from Canada’s oil sands into the United States. That project has faced stiff opposition from environmental groups because oil sands are

more energy-intensive and emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than traditional oil sources. Geologists have long known that shale basins across the country, like the Bakken field in North Dakota, Eagle Ford and Barnett in Texas, and the Marcellus in the Northeast, held tremendous oil and gas reserves. But energy companies had no economic way to collect them until new technology recently changed that. The results have been impressive. Production from the Bakken region alone has gone from negligible quantities to 500,000 barrels of oil a day in just a few years. Production at Eagle Ford produced just 787 barrels in 2004. Last year, its production reached 30.5 million barrels, according to state regulators, and it is still growing. Natural gas production there went from nothing to 243 billion cubic feet in just three years. The National Petroleum Council, an industry-led group that provides advice to the secretary of energy, recently outlined its view of how the nation’s larger-than-expected resource might be developed. In a major study released last year, the group forecast that North American oil production might exceed 20 million barrels a day by 2035 under a “high potential” situation of unfettered access. However, under a “limited” situation where production was constrained for a variety of environmental or political reasons, domestic supplies might fall to less than 10 million barrels a day. Some experts are more bullish. Morse of Citigroup forecast that North American oil production could reach an astounding 27 million barrels a day by 2020, almost twice the rate of production of 15 million barrels a day at the end of 2011. Production from the United States could grow to 15.6 million barrels a day by 2020, up from 9 million barrels a day in 2011. If that trend continues, the growth in oil and natural gas supplies in the next decades could turn the United States into a top energy exporter, rivaling some members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Natural gas could be sold to Mexico and

Canada (because exploiting oil sands is so energy-intensive, Canada might have to import natural gas to produce its oil). Refined petroleum products, and even crude oil, could find customers in Europe and Latin America. Coal could be exported to China. With less gasoline demand, the nation’s surplus refining capacity means the United States is already exporting petroleum products — like gasoline and diesel. The United States is now the top exporter of refined products, just ahead of Russia.

Energy independence Assessing falling American dependence on foreign oil, analysts with the financial firm Raymond James said imports fell from 65 percent of demand, or 13.5 million barrels a day, their peak in 2005, to 9.8 million barrels a day in 2011, or 52 percent of demand. They predicted that imports would keep falling, reaching 4.5 million barrels a day — or just a quarter of domestic oil demand — by 2015. By 2020, they forecast, the United States would not need to import foreign oil anymore. “The resulting savings from the standpoint of the trade deficit are highly meaningful,” the analysts said, “especially when the benefits of cheaper energy for domestic manufacturing are taken into account. Maybe the real question is, When will Washington apply to join OPEC?” While the question is provocative, the change in outlook for domestic supplies, along with the changed role of the United States in global energy markets, carries important economic and geopolitical lessons. James Brick, an energy analyst with Wood Mackenzie, a research firm, said in a recent report that by 2030 the United States could end up exporting 500 million tons of coal a year, 3.2 billion cubic feet a day of natural gas and 2.5 million barrels a day of oil products. “The United States will be playing a very different role on the energy markets, a much more international role and a much more complicated and sophisticated one,” said Brick. “As with any forecast there are uncertainties but no matter how you cut it, the United States has the resources in the ground.”

HARP 2.0 to pick up mortgage help slack By Al Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer

PHILADELPHIA — After months in the works, HARP 2.0 is available to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac borrowers who want to refinance but owe more on their mortgages than their houses now are worth. HARP 2.0 — HARP stands for Home Affordable Refinance Inside Program — is being • Resources to help answer billed as questions, G2 an improvement • Latest over the mortgage 3-year-old rates, G2 version that just about everyone acknowledges didn’t help anyone. The reason for that failure: The original program had limits on loan-to-value ratio, the amount of a mortgage as a percentage of the appraised value of a property. If the balance of a mortgage exceeded the appraised value — say, $300,000 versus $150,000 — the borrower wasn’t allowed to refinance. Recognizing that none of the borrowers the program was intended to help would be able to qualify, the limits were dropped when the new version of HARP was heralded in October. Does that mean all lenders have agreed to no limits? “I have lenders that have limited the loan-tovalues. Some have even differentiated between attached and detached homes,” said Philadelphia mortgage broker Fred Glick, who has launched a blog, http://harp2.com, to update consumers. “They still are limiting what they will do” with loan-to-value ratios of 150 percent and no more. “All in all, it is a great way to get people’s rates down in spite of low values,” Glick said. “This will decrease the supply of homes for sale and increase values over the long run.” As with all these programs, the months since HARP 2.0 was announced have been spent trying to get lenders on board — no easy task since Fannie and Freddie loans are pooled as mortgage-backed securities that are owned by many investors.

Spicing it up

• New speciality stores in Bend feature herbs, spices and rubs By Rachael Rees The Bulletin

rom spices and herbs, to oils and rubs, Central Oregonians are getting adventurous in the kitchen and now have more ingredients to choose from. In less than six months, a store selling oils, vinegars and infused salts opened in downtown Bend and a spice and herb store opened in Bend’s Old Mill District. Farmers are growing more herbs and spices, and local companies are distributing rubs and extracts through restaurants, stores and online marketplaces. Laura Barton, trade development manager for the Oregon Department of Agriculture, said a market has developed for specialty foods and stores. “I think people who are food curious are really embracing trying new things,” she said. “They are willing to purchase these products, use them and try them out, instead of just the same-old thing.” Barton said stores now devote more shelf space to specialty oils, vinegars, herbs and spices, which shows a growing demand. There are more products and a greater variety to choose from, she said. Americans’ overall spice consumption has increased from an estimated 2.7 pounds per capita in 1999 to an estimated 3.4 pounds per person in 2009, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Economic Research Service.

Saving to claim the American dream • Middle-class families hope to rise from Great Recession on slimmed down budgets By Tyrone Beason The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — The two-bedroom apartment Lance Miller shares with his wife, Jen, and their 4-year-old son, North, looks out over the loading docks of Fred Meyer in Seattle’s Greenwood neighborhood.

New age of air travel, but preferring the old • New Berlin airport has travelers mourning old hub’s convenience By Sally McGrane New York Times News Service

BERLIN — More than 20 years in the making, Berlin’s new airport is set to open June 3. With its 70-acre steel, glass and granite terminal, Berlin Brandenburg Airport will bring the city’s passengers into the world of 21st-century air travel. And that, for many, is precisely the problem — they prefer the 20th century. “I think it’s terrible,” said Yaver Karablut, a frequent flier who far prefers Tegel, the airport in the former West Berlin scheduled to close when the new one opens. With a sigh, Karablut ticked off the reasons: Tegel is easier to get to and to navigate. “I really think it’s a shame,” he said. Designed in 1965 according to the short-lived “drive to your gate” concept, Tegel’s narrow building is shaped like a hexagon. Cars can travel along the inner sides, and airplanes dock along the outer sides. Each gate has its own yellow fiberglass check-in counter, so taxi and airplane are separated by about 100 feet.

Online Continued from G1 Yet the idea was still troubling. My friends and I started a long email thread about it, riffing that despite its elegant design, it seemed awkward and presumptuous. Not all Facebook â&#x20AC;&#x153;friendsâ&#x20AC;? are actually friends, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not entirely clear that the bands and shows weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve â&#x20AC;&#x153;likedâ&#x20AC;? on Facebook can really be used to say anything meaningful about us. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found my newest nightmare,â&#x20AC;? one friend said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One match was a girl because we share a birthday,â&#x20AC;? said another. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One match was a guy because we both like Gilt,â&#x20AC;? a shopping site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is this for finding friends, dates or enemies?â&#x20AC;?

How technology finds love To be fair, the problem doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be confined to Yoke.me. It may be part of online dating itself. Sites and apps like OKCupid, eHarmony, Skout, Plenty of Fish and Match.com have attracted loyal followings. But in a world where we can pay someone for lunch by tapping two phones together and stream live television over a tablet computer, the de facto model of browsing through static profiles on a website or in a mobile app can feel comically outdated. It may not be a problem that software can solve on its own, said Eli Finkel, a professor of social psychology at Northwestern University. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Technology is not the way to figure out who is compatible and will never be,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At the end of the day, the human algorithm â&#x20AC;&#x201D; neural tissue in our cranium called a brain â&#x20AC;&#x201D; has evolved over a long period of time to size up people efficiently. On a blind date, a person arrives and in that instant I can say Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad I did this or regret it.â&#x20AC;? Finkel, along with several other researchers, published a study this year raising doubts about the idea that a personality test or algorithm of the kind popularized on eHarmony, can help you meet a potential mate. Sites that say algorithms can help you find your soul mate â&#x20AC;&#x153;are probably spitting in the wind,â&#x20AC;? said Harry Reis, a professor of psychology at the University of Rochester and a co-author of the algorithm paper, who has written upwards of 120 papers on online dating. EHarmony counters that the algorithms it uses do work, citing research it conducted investigating the satisfaction of couples who met through the site, and their divorce rate. The system eHarmony has built is â&#x20AC;&#x153;based on years of empirical and clinical research on married couples,â&#x20AC;? said Becky Teraoka, an eHarmony spokeswoman. They include â&#x20AC;&#x153;aspects of personality,

values and interest, and how pairs match on them, that are most predictive of relationship satisfaction.â&#x20AC;? While Finkel and Reis question the value of algorithms, they do say that online dating is useful because it can broaden the pool of people you come across on a regular basis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In everyday life you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t encounter people with signs on their head that say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m single and looking,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Reis said. On sites you can find â&#x20AC;&#x153;dozens of people that you might want to meet.â&#x20AC;? The trick is to weed out the weirdos and arrange a faceto-face meeting as quickly as possible â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which, in a sense, is what Yoke.me is trying to do, as are similar services like theComplete.me and Coffee Meets Bagel. Other sites are trying to move past the algorithm. A startup called myMatchmaker uses in-the-flesh people as intermediaries. Some, like Nerve.com, and How About We, aim to streamline the process and encourage interactions around more than a profile.

Only breaking the ice But Kevin Slavin, a game developer who studies algorithms, says those sites are starting from a flawed base. The digital personas we cultivate on Facebook are often not very indicative of who we are, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A first date is the most tangible instance of you being the best possible version of yourself, the version you think will be the most attractive to someone else,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is impossible for that to be the same person on Facebook.â&#x20AC;? Rob Fishman, who helmed the development of Yoke.me, says he views the service as an icebreaker, not as a crystal ball capable of divining whether or not someone is your one true love. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t saying you will want to spend your life together; you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even know each other yet,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You like the same band, talk amongst yourselves.â&#x20AC;? Eventually, Fishman said, the service will be sophisticat-

ed enough to incorporate real-time data funneled through Facebook about songs people are listening to and articles they are reading and to make matches based on that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; perhaps a more realistic way to connect two people through a social network. All of this may simply mean that online dating is at an early stage. In other realms, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re already moving toward a future when the most dazzling and successful technologies are not visible and work almost by magic. Consider Kinect from Microsoft. You can play a dance game by moving your whole body, without the need to hold a physical controller. Or try Squareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest mobile application, Pay With Square. The appâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s software will show a cashier a photo of a customer to verify payment information. Shoppers never even have to remove their phones from their pockets â&#x20AC;&#x201D; only say their names and show their faces. Then there is the Paper drawing app for the iPad. Its â&#x20AC;&#x153;rewindâ&#x20AC;? feature lets users twist two fingers in a counterclockwise motion to erase their last few brushstrokes. And, of course, there is Siri, the iPhone service that can understand spoken commands, perform Web searches and write and send text messages. Although Siri isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t perfect, it feels like a taste of the future. That shift is leaving online dating in the dust. It feels clunkier than it should â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like a poorly designed tablet or a Web service that keeps crashing. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a technology quandary fit for modern times, and one that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a clear solution in sight â&#x20AC;&#x201D; yet. No one wants to see Cupid interfering with his or her love life; we just want the arrow to hit squarely on its mark. And, maybe someday, it will.

HARP Continued from G1 All the investors need to agree before borrowers can apply to reduce monthly payments to todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s low fixed interest rates, which remained under 4 percent for many months but now are beginning to increase as bond yields rise in an apparently improving economy. As of March 17, HARP 2.0 has been in place to help keep homeowners above water. About 4 million Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac borrowers nationwide owe more on their mortgages than their homes are worth. Those links also can be reached through www.making homeaffordable.gov, which has details about HARP 2.0 and other information. Underwater loans might also be eligible to refinance under provisions of the recent National Mortgage Settlement. That applies to loans neither owned by Freddie or Fannie nor insured by the Federal Housing Administration, which has its own streamlined refinancing under a program announced in January. Details of that settlement are being worked out, and eligible borrowers will be notified by the five participating lenders â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Wells Fargo, Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Ally Financial, and Citibank â&#x20AC;&#x201D; at some point.

To qualify To be eligible for HARP, homeowners must be current on their mortgage. That means paid in full up to date, with no late payments in the past six months and only one in the past 12 months. They also need to show that they can afford the new payments gained through refinancing without any trouble. Borrowers must have closed on their current mortgage on or before May 31, 2009, and cannot have refinanced through HARP before. In addition, mortgages must fall under current â&#x20AC;&#x153;conforming-loan limits,â&#x20AC;? which vary by region. One thing both Fannie and Freddie want to see is whether borrowers refinance to loans with terms shorter than 30 years. They call this â&#x20AC;&#x153;movement to a more stable product.â&#x20AC;? Borrowers with an interestonly loan will be urged to refinance to a mortgage product that provides amortization of principal and accumulation of equity in the property. Those who have an adjustable-rate mortgage will be encouraged to refinance to a fixed-rate loan that eliminates the potential for payment shock, or to an adjustable with an ini-

tial fixed period of five years or more and equal to or greater than the existing mortgage. Homeowners with a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage will be advised to refinance to a 15-, 20-, or 25-year fixed that offers, in Fannie Maeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s words, accelerated amortization of principal and equity-building. But borrowers wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be allowed to cash out equity under this refinancing â&#x20AC;&#x153;except for closing costs and certain allowances to cover items such as association fees, property tax bills, insurance costs, and rounding adjustments.â&#x20AC;? Balloon mortgages and convertible adjustable-rate mortgages are eligible for HARP 2.0 if the conditional right to refinance the balloon or convert the ARM was exercised by the borrower and â&#x20AC;&#x153;redeliveredâ&#x20AC;? to Fannie Mae before June 1, 2009.

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage dropped near its all-time low this week, making home-buying and refinancing a bargain for those who can qualify. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday that the rate on the 30-year loan fell to 3.88 percent from 3.98 percent. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just above the rate of 3.87 percent reached in February, the lowest since long-term mortgages began in the 1950s. The 15-year mortgage, a popular option for refinancing, plunged to a fresh low of 3.11 percent from 3.21 percent last week. The previous record of 3.13 percent was hit last month. Mortgage rates are lower because they tend to track the yield on the 10-year Treasury note. Last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappointing report on March job growth led more investors to sell stocks and buy Treasurys, which are considered safer investments. As demand for Treasurys increases, the yield falls. Yet the low rates are unlikely to draw in many more people looking to buy a home or to refinance their mortgage. Some would-be buyers are still skeptical about purchasing a home with prices still falling. Home appraisals that are higher or lower than the sales price have scuttled a rising number of home contracts. Many Americans are struggling with damaged credit and unstable finances. And mortgage rates have been below 4 percent for all but one week since early December.

Saving Continued from G1 Lance takes his son to school each day by bicycle. Jen, who uses her maiden name, Lincoln, takes the bus to work. After holding off on buying a car, the couple recently purchased a used one for road trips and urgent appointments. It sounds like a fine, ecofriendly urban existence, and Lance is the first to acknowledge his family isn’t suffering. But there’s a huge chasm between doing all right and living the American dream. The life they lead is actually the result of multiple trade-offs and calculations. The fact is that as renters, the family has had to inch farther and farther away from downtown to find affordable housing and services they can walk to. The apartment Lance and Jen used to rent in Fremont was just a 20-minute walk to the video-streaming company where they both work. Now they live farther from the office but only a short walk to their son’s school. By not owning a car, they were able to put more money toward savings for their first home. Jen and Lance have considered buying a condominium in the suburbs, rather than in Seattle, but doing so might necessitate having two cars, depending on bus service, badly cutting into the household budget. Like many families struggling to maintain a middleclass lifestyle during the most prolonged economic crisis since the Great Depression, they don’t have that luxury. They have to pick and choose which aspects of that dream they can afford. The white board on their kitchen wall lays it out plainly, their itemized monthly budget scribbled in marker, right down to the penny. “We’ve done these strategic little things that make it work,” Miller said, “all the little tricks that you have to do in the city. If you’re above a certain monetary line, you don’t have to master those things.” But if the American dream is about aspiration, about wanting to do better than your parents and wanting your children to do better than you, then the family appears to be on the right path. Lance, for instance, grew up poor in the suburbs of Little Rock, Ark., but his son enjoys better circumstances. The bigger issue for his family, and the rest of us, is whether the American dream, that gauzy notion of middle-class comfort and financial security, can stand up to the realities of a transformed economy. While Jen and Lance dream of moving on up, extended joblessness, decreased property values, debt and the rising cost of living have pushed many families in the opposite direction. More than 40 percent of Americans qualify as low-income or are just getting by (a finding based on household incomes below $45,000 for a family of four), according to one recent study. Lance Miller, 50, says his household’s income is well over $50,000 a year and that on paper, at least, his family already fits snugly into the middle-income bracket.

Having patience What does it mean, though, to fit into a once-comfortable income bracket that may no longer support your goals? The couple’s solution is strict financial discipline and delayed gratification. Their older-model TV cost $50 on Craigslist. Both Lance and Jen give themselves $50 a month in allowance, or “fun money.” Jen and Lance have significant savings in the bank, which will go toward the first home. They’re prepared for that big leap, but they are in no rush. These baby steps represent a conscious decision, which is entirely appropriate considering the halting state of the economic recovery. During Jen’s pregnancy in 2007, they both went through a “paranoia phase,” worrying about what would happen if one or both of them got laid off. That’s when they started saving in earnest, and that flush savings account today provides peace of mind. “We want to be able to live for two years on our savings,” Lance said. “If the economy super-tanked (again), we wanna be able to survive.” Their solution is not rocket science. They’ve simply bor-

40s. She’s 56 now. Before that, she lived “a good middle-class life … nice home, nice friends,” with a successful husband and four kids in the Everett area. But in the fall of 2001, her marriage fell apart, and Kinney found herself needing to make it on her own as a single mom. She couldn’t find a full-time job, even with her college degree in graphic design. “I think at one time I was working five part-time jobs — you name it, I did it,” she said. “I did everything right; then it all blew up,” she said of her previous life. “So you start over, you reinvent yourself.” Her solution was to go back to school and study to become a teacher, a field she always had an affinity for. The prospect of going back to college made her “scared to death,” a feeling that was not assuaged at all by the $40,000 in college debt she eventually accumulated. But five years ago, she went ahead and purchased a townhouse in West Seattle. By the fall of 2010, though, her expenses proved overwhelming, her bank refused to refinance and the place went into foreclosure. This was not how secondacts are supposed to turn out. She has managed to make a soft landing after her personal financial crisis, and in this economy, that’s no small achievement. “The ‘dream’ changes,” she said. “My dream right now is a job I love, good health and my home.”

The ‘Warbucks’ family Sarah Walters plays with her son, Jack III, at their home in Kent, Wash. The family lives on a tight budget limiting their home furnishings and other aspects of life.

rowed well-tested principles, used by millions to survive and rebuild after the Great Depression, and applied them in an era when financial risktaking and living beyond your means have been the norm. The example of Jen and Lance offers a rough sketch of what the future might look like, a possible template for a new American dream. Maybe from the ashes of the Great Recession, a new architecture for the middle class can rise for all of us, one that is slimmed down, for sure, but also more sustainable — and built to last.

Taking a different route Sarah and Jack Walters, and their 4-year-old son, Jack III, offer another variation on the American dream story. In May they moved into their first home, in Kent, Wash., on a quiet street that is the picture of suburban living. Emily Howell, their representative at Zip Realty, summed up their vision of the American dream this way: “They desired their own safe space to call home, a nice yard for their little boy and a neighborhood for him to grow up with friends/schoolmates.” There is nothing grandiose about the Walters’ vision for their family, nothing that feels even daunting. The couple, both of whom work in the technology industry, took out a Federal Housing Administration loan with a 3.5 percent down payment, and by the end of May they were moving into a two-level house with a backyard and plenty of room for Jack-Jack, as they call him, to run around. But there’s a catch. As Sarah, a 35-year-old who works from home, gives a tour of the upstairs not long after moving in, she sheepishly explains the glaring lack of furniture in the living room, where there’s a dining table and hardly anything else. They spend most of their time in the furnished family room downstairs. “We’re building slowly but surely,” she said. The couch, chairs and lamps will come eventually. The main thing is they have the house. Like Jen and Lance, the Walters family strategized before making the big purchase: They would buy a house with a mortgage manageable with just one income, should either Sarah or Jack lose a job. This was an especially crucial factor because the couple racked up a combined $120,000 worth of college debt while studying for their technology degrees, which also needs to be paid off. Plus, they already know the terror of layoffs. Between 2006 and 2008, the year their son was born, Jack lost jobs several times because of downsizing, and the couple bumped

along near relatives in Kansas City and in the Seattle area. “We were sitting there having to pick and choose which bills to pay,” Sarah said of that time. “It was a shock — having to ask my parents for support after we graduated, and we’re almost 30 years old. It was really humiliating and degrading. Our credit was going down, and down and down.” In late 2008, after moving back to the Seattle area from Kansas City, the family moved in with Jack’s sister, who had just purchased a home and needed help paying the mortgage. The plan was to rent space there for two years, all the while paying down bills that were in collections and working toward their dream of owning a home. “For two years, all we did was pay our bills and pay off our collection accounts as we could,” Sarah said. “It was really difficult to save and, in fact, we didn’t. Everything went to bills and collection payments.” After realizing they made too much money to qualify for a first-time homebuyer loan with low upfront costs, the couple resolved to bear down even harder and save for a different kind of loan through the FHA. Sarah took a $4,500 early withdrawal from her IRA account to get things started, and the couple saved another $3,000 in two months. The loan application and homebuying processes were grueling, and incredibly timeconsuming. Didn’t matter. “We wanted this house so bad,” Sarah said while chatting at the dining table in her

otherwise barren living room. “I didn’t care what I had to go through.” “It’s just nice to know that we have our own little piece of the pie,” she said, noting that her father bought his first home when he was 21, much earlier than she. But the delay and tribulations have taught the Walterses valuable lessons about finance and what’s important in life. “I really didn’t feel like an adult until we bought this house,” Sarah said. “We plan on being here for 10 years, 15 years. ... This is a long-term thing.”

Dreaming of stability How many times can you see flashes of happy families in big houses behind white picket fences in the movies, or more recently, paycheck-topaycheck families in half-million-dollar homes they somehow got loans for and hope to flip for a profit, before starting to believe that that is exactly how life should be? The American dream is so cheerily unrealistic, a film-studio back-lot illusion, one that we dutifully play into and invest years of earnings to make real. Thinking big is at the core of who we are in America. But when misfortune strikes, the illusion can vanish in an instant. Karol Kinney has seen the American dream come and go and come again. She teaches — history, yearbook and special education — at Seattle’s Cleveland High School, having earned her master’s degree in education in her late

On the other side of fear is hope. On the other side of failure is redemption. And on the other side of the recession are examples like Tonya Walters, of Tacoma, Wash., a 23-yearold who had been saving up to buy her own home since she was a teen. She was so enterprising as a child that her family nicknamed her “Tonya Warbucks,” and her odd early financial discipline has reaped dividends. While most of her peers were switching college majors and fretting about the future, she was looking at real-estate options, with enough money already saved for a down payment. She moved into her $149,000 town house, on a culde-sac near Tacoma Mall, in May. In September she married her fiance, Tylor Walters, a 20-year-old Army infantryman stationed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and is in the process of adopting his son, Tylor II, who’s 2. Both husband and wife are meticulous about money. Tylor says he doesn’t use credit cards and opens his wallet to prove it. “I’m old-fashioned that way,” he joked. The whole idea of buying things on credit when you can save and buy them in cash bothers him. They’re a perfect couple in that way: “I didn’t have to teach him how to save money and spend money, and he didn’t have to worry about me going out and racking up lots of debt,” said Tonya, who’s building an Internet services company and an interiordesign business from home while pregnant. For his part, Tylor says all he’s wanted in life is “a nice house, a car and a balanced family — one boy, one girl.”
