By turning off a few valves and adding some new pipes to Bend’s water system, the city can save between 23 percent and 67 percent on those electricity bills, a recent study found. If fully realized, these savings could shave a couple of hundred thousand dollars off the city’s roughly $700,000-a-year energy costs for operating its water system. It’s unlikely, though, that ratepayers will see any changes in their monthly bills. “In order to have any significant impact on rates, the savings would have to be in the millions,” Bend Finance Director Sonia Andrews said. “You would need savings of over a million dollars for sure. A hundred thousand or less in savings is not going to be noticeable.” The study was performed by Optimatics, an international firm specializing in finding the most efficient ways to operate water systems. The company analyzed Bend’s entire water infrastructure, from pipes to pump stations to groundwater wells, to determine the most effective way to operate it. It aimed to maximize Bend’s use of its surface water supply, which comes from Bridge Creek near Tumalo Falls, and is brought by gravity down to the city. By opening or closing some valves and adding more pipe connections to the system, the Optimatics report concludes, the city can change the way water flows through its system and cut down on energy costs for pumping and wells.

n 2007, the first 35 minimum-security inmates arrived at the state’s newest prison, Deer Ridge Correctional Institution in Madras. They came shackled from other prisons across the state and were picked for skills they could bring the institution, such as food preparation. It had taken 11 years of planning and $220 million in construction to build Deer Ridge. Some who work at Deer Ridge refer to it as its own city within a city — here’s a glimpse into that city. There are 172 Oregon Department of Corrections staff who work at Deer Ridge, and 19 contractors, such as Central Oregon Community College professors. More than 80 of the employees work in security. Originally, the minimum-security portion of the prison was said to be at capacity with 644 inmates. Due to budget cuts, there are 751 inmates living at Deer Ridge’s minimum facility now. All of the inmates have four years or less to serve on their sentences. They work various jobs and are paid anywhere from $25 a month for orderlies to $80 a month for tutors. Their ages and crimes range from murder to sexual assaults to property crimes and robbery. The three youngest inmates are 20 years old. The three oldest are in their 70s. The 1,224-bed mediumsecurity portion of the prison has been mothballed. See Deer Ridge / A4

When a product manager at Google told his bosses this year that he was quitting to take a job at Facebook, they offered him a large raise. When he said it was not about the money, they told him he could have a promotion, work in a different area or even start his own company inside Google. He turned down all the inducements and joined Google’s newest rival. “Google’s gotten to be a lot bigger and slower-moving of a company,” said the former manager, who would speak only anonymously to protect business relationships. “At Facebook, I could see how quickly I could get things done compared to Google.” See Google / A6

Bombing suspect changed of late, friends say By Jesse McKinley and William Yardley New York Times News Service

CORVALLIS — Mohamed Osman Mohamud had seemed to be a well-adjusted young American teenager: a solid student whose interests included basketball, girls and the nightlife at Oregon State University,

where he studied engineering. But those who know him say he changed in recent months. He dropped out of school and stopped attending mosque. And, perhaps most tellingly, he began lying about his plans for the future. “He seemed to be in a state of confusion,” said Yosof Wanly, the imam

at the Salman Al-Farisi Islamic Center in Corvallis, which Mohamud attended while at college. “He would say things that weren’t true. ‘I’m going to go get married,’ for example. But he wasn’t getting married.” A possible explanation for his erratic behavior came as Mohamud, a 19-year-old naturalized Somali-

American, was arrested Friday by federal agents and charged with plotting to set off a bomb at a Christmastree-lighting ceremony in Portland. The device the authorities say Mohamud sought to detonate was a fake bomb supplied by FBI agents who had orchestrated a sting operation. See Bomb plot / A4

A bully finds a pulpit (and a profit) on the Web Online retailer Vitaly Borker wants your negative feedback

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

New York Times News Service

Thriving on outrage By then, Rodriguez had learned a lot more about DecorMyEyes on Get Satisfaction, an advocacy website where consumers vent en masse. Dozens of people over the last three years, she found, had nearly identical tales about DecorMyEyes. The company was actually owned and run by a man named Vitaly Borker. Today, when reading the dozens of comments about DecorMyEyes, it is hard to decide which one conveys the most outrage. It is easy, though, to choose the most outrageous. It was written by Borker himself. “Hello,” the post began. “I just wanted to let you guys know that the more replies you people post, the more business and the more hits and sales I get. My goal is NEGATIVE advertisement.” It’s all part of a sales strategy, he said. Online chatter about DecorMyEyes, even furious online chatter, pushed the site higher in Google search results, which led to greater sales. He closed with a sardonic expression of gratitude: “I never had the amount of traffic I have now since my 1st complaint.

How to use your phone to maximize holiday shopping By Jennifer Waters

By David Segal Shopping online in late July, Clarabelle Rodriguez typed the name of her favorite eyeglass brand into Google’s search bar. In moments, she found the perfect frames — made by a French company called Lafont — on a website that looked snazzy and stood at the top of the search results. Rodriguez placed an order for both the Lafonts and a set of doctor-prescribed Ciba Vision contact lenses on that site, DecorMyEyes.com. The total cost was $361.97. The next day, a man calling himself Tony Russo called to say that DecorMyEyes had run out of the Ciba Visions. Pick another brand, he advised a little brusquely. “I told him that I didn’t want another brand,” recalls Rodriguez. “And I asked for a refund. He got rude, really obnoxious. ‘What’s the big deal? Choose another brand!’” Soon after, she discovered that DecorMyEyes had charged her $487 — or an extra $125. When she and Russo spoke again, she asked about the overcharge and said she would return the frames. “I’m going to contact my credit card company,” she told him, “and dispute the charge.” Until that moment, Russo was merely ornery. Now he erupted. “Listen, bitch,” he fumed, according to Rodriguez. “I know your address. I’m one bridge over” — a reference, it turned out, to the company’s office in Brooklyn. Rodriguez was shaken but undaunted. That day she called Citibank, which administers her MasterCard account, and won a provisional victory. Her $487 would be refunded as the bank looked into the charge and discussed it with the owner of DecorMyEyes. A final determination, she was told, would take 60 days. As that two-month deadline approached, Rodriguez said, Russo began an increasingly nasty campaign to persuade her to contact Citibank and withdraw her dispute. He threatened a lawsuit and sent her pictures of her apartment building. Meanwhile, Citbank contacted her. Someone posing as Rodriguez, she says, had called the bank and said she had changed her mind and no longer wanted a refund. “I called the bank right away and said: ‘This is nonsense. I never called you and told you I’m withdrawing my dispute,’” she says. “I was on the phone with a woman from the fraud department, and it was amazing — she just didn’t care. When I explained the whole story, she said: ‘Listen, this isn’t our problem. This has nothing to do with us.’”

A computer displays the glasses Clarabelle Rodriguez, left, ordered on a website that stood at the top of her search results. It was the start of what Rodriguez would later describe as one of the most maddening and miserable experiences of her life. I am in heaven.” The story of DecorMyEyes suggests that 15 years after the birth of online commerce, the Internet is still strewn with trapdoors, and that when consumers take a tumble, they are pretty much on their own. A call to Google was returned by a member of its publicity team, who agreed to speak only if his ideas would be paraphrased and not directly quoted. A crucial factor in Google search results, the spokesman explained, is the number of links from respected and substantial websites. The more links that a site has from big and well-regarded sites, the better its chances of turning up high in a search Ultimately, the spokesman sidestepped the question of whether utterly noxious retail could yield profits. The best he could do was decline to call Borker a liar for saying that it did.

Working through eBay Google is not the only digital enterprise that inadvertently enables Borker. EBay does, too — by giving Borker a large and easily available inventory. DecorMyEyes doesn’t stock the merchandise it sells; it simply takes orders, then buys from an assortment of merchandisers, including several on eBay. Then Borker instructs those sellers to send products to his customers. The problem, several sellers on eBay say, is that Borker often wants glasses sent to customer addresses that have not been “confirmed” by PayPal, eBay’s online payments system. (Only items sent to confirmed addresses are covered by PayPal’s refund system, which assures sellers that they will get their money back if a transaction goes south.) When sellers decline to ship to one of Borker’s unconfirmed addresses, they say, he has exacted revenge by leaving negative feedback, which can be reputational poison to an eBay business. Selling on the Internet, Borker says, attracts a new horde of potential customers every day. For the most part, they don’t know anything about DecorMyEyes, and the ones who bother to research the company — well, he doesn’t want their money. If you’re the type of person who reads consumer reviews, Borker would rather you shop elsewhere. “I’m not a salesgirl at Macy’s,” is the way he puts it, “following a customer around the store to make sure you’re happy.” He stumbled upon the upside of rudeness by accident. “I stopped caring,” he says, and for that he blames customers. They lied and changed their minds in ways that cost him money, he says, and at some point he started telling them off in the bluntest of terms. To his amazement, this seemed to better his standing in certain Google searches, which brought in more sales. “Look,” he says, grabbing an iPad off a small table. He types “Christian Audigier,” the name of a French designer, and “glasses” into Google. DecorMyEyes pops

up high on the first page. “Why am I there?” he asks, sounding both peeved and amazed. “I don’t belong there. I actually outrank the designer’s own website.” The only explanation, he figures, is online chatter about his appalling ways. He swears that a vast majority of his transactions are amicable, and he is adamant that all of the customers he verbally attacks deserve it. The only real limit on his antics is imposed by Visa and MasterCard. If too many customers successfully dispute charges in a given month, he can be tossed out of their networks, he says. In other words, Borker is perfectly capable of minding his manners. And he does so, right now, with every order that comes through a store he runs through Amazon.com’s affiliate program. He handles those transactions like a Boy Scout because Amazon doesn’t mess around, he says — the company just kicks you off its site if you infuriate customers. MasterCard does not inspire such fear, and for good reason. Executives there say Borker was bounced from its system last year for excessive charge-backs, but he simply signed up through a different acquirer, as the banks used by merchants are known. How Borker eluded the many safeguards that MasterCard has in place to prevent exactly such a round trip is a mystery, says Noah Hanft, the company’s general counsel. “No system is perfect,” he says. “But there are checks and balances to weed out bad apples.” MasterCard will look into DecorMyEyes, he adds, which might lead to additional safeguards. Good luck, says Borker. “There is no such thing as shutting someone down on the Internet,” he said during our initial telephone interview. “It isn’t possible. If Visa and MasterCard ever shut me down, I’d use the name of a friend of mine. Give him 1 percent.”

Resolution, of a sort For months, Borker and Rodriguez were essentially working opposite sides of the Internet. He operated in the seams and cracks of the Web’s underbelly, while she was pleading for help with what is supposed to be the Web’s protective layer: a variety of corporations and law enforcement entities that could have intervened. None did. Not Hostek.com, which provides DecorMyEyes’ Web hosting service. She wrote to the company and asked why it would associate with an online seller that has mistreated so many consumers. She never heard back. More recently, Brian Anderson, the Hostek chief executive, wrote that his company was recently made aware of some of Borker’s business practices and had already told him that it planned to sever ties. On Wednesday, Anderson wrote to confirm that those ties had been severed. When contacted by a reporter,

a Citigroup spokeswoman, Janis Tarter, sounded mortified by the treatment that Rodriguez says she received from the bank. Tarter said a representative would get in touch with her. “Naturally, our customers are not responsible for any charges that they have not made or that were not authorized by them,” Tarter wrote in an e-mail. Two weeks ago, a Citibank representative called Rodriguez and said that her refund would be restored. Rodriguez said no apology was offered. After looking into DecorMyEyes, MasterCard said that Borker has once again been ejected from its system and this time has been placed on a special list that will make it harder for him to get back in. EBay has conducted its own review and decided to bar Borker permanently from the site, having found what it called violations of its policies for buyers as well as accounts that were linked to previously suspended accounts. A company spokesman, John Pluhowski, said eBay had recently started new systems that would make it easier to track abusive buyers. Despite the fear he has inspired, Borker doesn’t regard himself as a terror. He prefers to think of himself as the Howard Stern of online commerce — an outsize character prone to shocking utterances. “People overreact,” he pshaws, often because they’re unaccustomed to plain speaking, New York-style. Anyway, he adds, if somebody messes with you, and you mess back, “how is that a threat?” “‘The customer is always right’ — not here, you understand?” he says, raising his voice. “I hate that phrase — ‘the customer is always right.’ Why is the merchant always wrong? Can the customer ever be wrong? Is that not possible?”

CHICAGO — If you want to be a smart shopper during the holidays, don’t leave home without your smart phone. Retailers have ramped up their Internet sites and interactive software to make it easier for mobile-phone users to search for deals, find coupons and comparison shop. At the same time, software applications and social media have become feeding frenzies for consumers to share their finds, seek another opinion or just get directions. That makes the mobile phone — next to money — the crucial shopping tool this year. Here’s how your mobile phone can help you shop: • Comparison shopping. Few things have proven more popular than price-shopping apps. You can compare prices right on the spot with apps from RedLaser, PriceGrabber, TheFind, Scandit and ShopSavvy. By pointing your phone at the product’s bar code, you can compare the prices in the stores to those online and at nearby stores, read reviews and even add items to a wish list. • Deals finding you. “Checking in” by using your phone is a hit with the 18-yearold to 25-year-old set, who use sites such as Foursquare, Brightkite and Facebook. Now consumers can get deals when they do the same thing. For many, if the application is on, GPS technology will pick up when you’re near a retailer and spit out coupons when you walk in the store — even without checking in. • More apps to work with. Applications like ShopSavvy will find deals, while location-based Shopkick will alert partner retailers — Macy’s, Best Buy, Target, Wet Seal and the Sports Authority, for example — that you’re in the store. The app will direct you to deals you might like based on your purchasing habits and send text messages with coupons or deal alerts. • Nabbing shopping rewards. If you’ve got time on your hands, you can collect rewards points by walking into stores like Best Buy, Target, Macy’s, American Eagle and the Sports Authority with a Shopkick or CheckPoints app open. Check in and then take the time to scan products for even more rewards. • Communicating with others. Not sure that coat looks good on you? Many of the same apps that let you comparison shop also let you share the information with your friends via Twitter or Facebook.

Do You Suffer from Sinusitis? See a Board Certified Allergist/Immunologist. Sinusitis is an inflammation of the cavities within the cheek bones around the eyes and behind the nose. While most common in the winter, Sinusitis may last for months if inadequately treated. Sinusitis may affect the nose, eyes, or middle ear, and may be indicated by plentiful, thick; colored nasal drainage, post-nasal drip, cough, head/ear/nasal congestion and headache. Types of Sinusitis Acute, which is often caused by a bacterial infection as a complication of a cold. Symptoms last less than four weeks. Chronic sinusitis last eight weeks or longer. Recurrent sinusitis is three or more episodes of acute sinusitis per year. Although colds are the most common cause of acute sinusitis, it is more likely that people with allergies will develop sinusitis. Allergies can trigger inflammation of the sinuses & nasal mucous linings, preventing the sinus cavities from clearing out bacteria, increasing your chances of developing sinusitis. It is important to seek maximal medical treatment before resorting to surgery. Patients you should see an allergist/immunologist if you: • Have chronic or recurrent rhinosinusitis despite initial treatment by their primary care provider. • Have concurrent asthma and hayfever • Have other infections such as recurrent ear infections, bronchitis or pneumonia We accept Medicare and most insurances

Corvallis fire raises Muslims’ fears of backlash By Jonathan Cooper and Nigel Duara The Associated Press

CORVALLIS — Someone set fire to an Islamic center on Sunday, two days after a man who worshipped there was accused of trying to blow up a van full of explosives during Portland’s Christmas tree lighting ceremony. Other Muslims fear it could be the first volley of misplaced retribution. The charges against Mohamed Osman Mohamud, a Somali-born 19-year-old who was caught in a federal sting operation, are testing tolerance in a state that has been largely accepting of Muslims. Muslims who know the suspect say they are shocked by the allegations against him and that he had given them no hint of falling into radicalism. The fire at the Salman Al-Farisi Islamic Center in Corvallis was reported at 2:15 a.m., and evidence at the scene led authorities to believe it was set intentionally, said Carla Pusateri, a fire prevention officer for the Corvallis Fire Department. Authorities don’t know who started the blaze or why, but they believe the center was targeted because Mohamud occasionally worshipped there. Mohamud was being held on charges of plotting to carry out a terror attack Friday on a crowd of thousands at Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse Square. He is scheduled to appear in court today, and it wasn’t clear if he had a lawyer yet.

SEATTLE — Seattle’s Somali community is afraid of a backlash after a holiday bomb threat was uncovered in Portland. Seattle residents with a Somali background told KOMO-TV they are concerned that people will think all Somali Muslims are potential terrorists. Sahra Farah, the director of the Somali Community Center in Seattle, said some Somali Muslims were harassed after 9/11 and in September of last year, when a SomaliAmerican suicide bomber from Seattle was accused of killing 21 peacekeepers in Mogadishu, Somalia. Last month, a woman was arrested after allegedly attacking two Muslim women from Somalia at a Tukwila gas station. — The Associated Press On Friday, he parked what he thought was a bomb-laden van near the ceremony and then went to a nearby train station, where he dialed a cell phone that he believed would detonate the vehicle, federal authorities said. Instead, federal authorities moved in and arrested him. No one was hurt.

NEW YORK — Holiday shoppers gave retailers a happy Thanksgiving weekend, crowding stores and malls more than last year. Add strong spending earlier this month and robust sales online, and retailers head into “Cyber Monday” encouraged. Particularly because many shoppers were buying for themselves, in addition to gifts, though mostly where they saw bargains. But retailers remain unsure how much people will spend before Christmas in an economy that’s still bumpy. Shoppers, grappling with an unemployment rate of 9.6 percent, remain careful about spending and driven by deals.

Numbers are encouraging, but are shoppers done?

THE BULLETIN • Monday, November 29, 2010 A3

Discounts, particularly early-morning specials, were deep enough that many shoppers say they bought more than they had planned. But some say that means they’re done, and they spent less than last year. The heavy discounting and lower prices on some things, particularly LCD TVs, held down overall spending. On Friday, retailers at shopping malls had sales of $10.7 billion, an increase of 0.3 percent over last year, according to preliminary figures from ShopperTrak, a research firm that counts shoppers at 70,000 stores. TV prices are falling almost twice as fast as they did earlier this year amid a glut. They’re selling for 15-20 percent less than Christmas 2009. — The Associated Press

process, which had been billed as a critical step toward installing a legitimate government that could oversee the earthquake-devastated country’s reconstruction and manage billions in still-undelivered foreign aid. Foreign governments and international groups have pledged about $5 billion in additional aid since the Jan. 12 earthquake. They are waiting to see whether Haiti will have a legitimate government capable of administering those funds and rebuilding the country. More than a million people are living in tent camps, and a cholera epidemic has killed more than 1,500 and sickened about 25,000. — The Washington Post

China seeks emergency meeting on Korea By Barbara Demick Los Angeles Times

BEIJING — China called Sunday for an emergency international meeting to ease tension on the Korean peninsula, but the United States and South Korea, engaged in large-scale war games nearby, appeared initially cool to the idea. The proposal followed a rare burst of shuttle diplomacy by the Chinese, who have been stung by accusations that they have failed to rein in their ally North Korea. Chinese State Councilor Dai Bingguo, the highest-ranking foreign policy official, flew to

Mexican gang leader claims killings, including 2 U.S. citizens By Elisabeth Malkin New York Times News Service

MEXICO CITY — A notorious drug gang leader has been captured and has confessed to ordering most killings in the border city of Ciudad Juarez since August 2009, including the shootings of a U.S. consular employee and her husband, Mexico’s federal police said Sunday. Arturo Gallegos Castrellon, 32, leader of the gang Los Aztecas, was arrested in a Juarez neighborhood Saturday, said Luis Cardenas Palomino, chief of the regional security division of the federal police. Cardenas said Gallegos claimed to have ordered 80 percent of the killings in the last 15 months. The arrest marked a publicrelations victory for the Mexican government as it takes aim at the top leaders of Mexico’s brutal drug cartels, but it offered no guarantee to weary Juarez residents that the violence which has claimed more than 2,000 lives in the city this year would diminish. Gallegos claimed responsibility for several of the most notorious killings this year, including the shooting death of Lesley Enriquez, a worker at the U.S. Consulate in Ciudad Juarez who was pregnant, and her husband, Arthur Redelfs, an officer at the El Paso County Jail. The police did not say why Gallegos ordered the consulate killings. Gallegos also admitted to ordering the massacre last Jan. 31 at a teenager’s party because he thought members of a rival gang were there, the police said. The massacre, in which 15 people died, shocked the city and forced President Felipe Calderon to acknowledge innocent people were being caught up in the drug war’s carnage.

Seoul over the weekend to meet with South Korean President Lee Myung-bak, and Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi spoke by telephone with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and to the foreign ministers of Russia and Japan. The U.S. ambassador to Beijing, Jon Huntsman, was spotted Sunday afternoon leaving the Foreign Ministry building in Beijing. A North Korean official, Choe Tae Bak, has been called to Beijing for meetings Tuesday. Despite the diplomacy, the scene off the west coast of the Korean peninsula Sunday was about

the show of force. Joint U.S.South Korean naval exercises are to take place over four days, led by the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier George Washington. North Korea kept nerves on edge with its own artillery practice Sunday near Yeonpyeong Island, where four South Koreans

were killed last week by North Korean shelling. The North Koreans were also reported by the South Korean news agency Yonhap to have deployed surface-to-air missiles and to be readying multiple-launch rocket systems near the sea border.

Deer Ridge Continued from A1

Mark Evans, guidance counselor The Oregon Department of Corrections employee panel was clearly impressed. Mark Evans sat in front of them a few years ago, dressed in a nice suit, which covered his tattoos. He was applying to be a counselor at the state’s newest prison in Madras. He nailed the interview. Cognitive behavior? He knew the ins and outs of how to change the way a person thinks. Addiction? He had a few insights. At the end, a panel member asked Evans if he had any questions for them. “On the initial application, they don’t ask for criminal history,” Evans said. “I shared my past with them. On the interview panel was a woman who was a correctional officer at Columbia River. Her demeanor changed when she realized.” The woman recognized Evans from his days as an inmate at Columbia River Correctional Institution, the prison in Northeast Portland. Evans, who grew up in Central Oregon and graduated from Crook County High School, said that while he was in the Army and living abroad, he became

addicted to drugs. When he got out of the Army, he moved back to Central Oregon and became a methamphetamine cooker. From 1981 until 1997, he went to prison about a dozen times. “Guys like me don’t get hired for the Department of Corrections,” Evans said. He didn’t get hired. But one person, a current employee at Deer Ridge Correctional Institution, wanted Evans at the Madras prison. That man, Kevin Hormann, who also works at the prison, appealed the decision. City of Bend police who once arrested Evans when he was an addict wrote him letters of recommendation for the Deer Ridge job. Since the late 1990s, Evans has worked at the Deschutes County Detention Center. He went to Narcotics Anonymous meetings religiously. He went to Central Oregon Community College and received a certificate in addiction studies. He started a successful boxing club for Jefferson County kids. He’s working toward his bachelor’s degree. And he works at Deer Ridge. On the bulletin board in Evans’ office is a plaque that honors him as the 2010 Deer Ridge employee of the year. Evans, who is 51 years old, has been clean for 14 years and a counselor and employee at Deer Ridge for about three years. This is not a story he shares easily. It’s not how everyone knows him.

“My daughter asks me questions that cut to the bone. She asks, ‘Do you love your homeboys and gangs more than me? Because you chose them over me.’” — Timothy Warren But he knows he’s changing lives. When he works with inmates, when he tells them, “You can change, you don’t have to come back here.” He is proof of that. “A lot of these guys, if they are given a chance to change and they have hope it’s possible, a lot of them want to change,” Evans said. “When we release them, we have to have resources to help.”

Timothy Warren, inmate Timothy Warren was sentenced to 39 years in prison in 1996 for trying to shoot a man. He appealed in 2006 and won. It cut 22 years off his sentence. “It changed my whole perspective,” Warren said. “It changed the way I look at things, the dynamics. I had a 2035 release date. In my mind, I wasn’t going home.

Bomb plot Continued from A1 But the effect of the planned attack was still felt Sunday, including at the Islamic center here, which was the target of a firebomb early in the day. No one was injured, but federal agents were here later in the day, investigating a possible link to Mohamud’s arrest, even as Wanly tried to calm the nerves of the members of his mosque. Mohamud is scheduled to appear in federal court Mohamed in Portland on Osman Monday on a Mohamud charge of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction. Many questions remain about the extent of Mohamud’s connections to Islamic extremists — whom investigators say he wrote to and plotted with — as well as the apparent contradictions in his personal life, as a studious, friendly teenager and a young man seeking to wage jihad within his adopted country. “When you think of someone doing what he did, you think of some crazy kind of guy,” said Mohamed Kassim, 21, a fellow Oregon State student who knew Mohamud from around campus. “He wasn’t like that. He was just like everybody else.”

Suspicion, worry Many Muslims in Oregon worried that they would face a backlash. And on Sunday, local Muslim leaders emphasized that the case was an isolated incident. “If this kid’s being radicalized, it’s not from the locals,” said Jesse Day, a spokesman for the Islamic Center of Portland and Masjed As-Saber, where Mo-

Continued from A1 By following the report’s suggestions, the city could reduce its wintertime energy costs by about 67 percent and its summertime costs by approximately 23 percent. The city currently spends more money on electricity during the summer because increased demand, such as for irrigation, exceeds how much surface water is available and requires more groundwater to be pumped. “This is really kind of state-ofthe-art information that we’re getting,” said Heidi Lansdowne, the project manager for Bend’s Water Division. “The idea was — looking at our existing system — how can we operate more efficiently? How can we maximize surface water and limit pumping?” The study, completed in April, used complex engineering formulas to come to its determination, and took into account things like daily energy costs for wells and pump stations, water levels in reservoirs and the amount of pressure coming through city pipes. Lansdowne said city employees are now implementing

mop cleaning the hallways, keys jangling. But the former school bus driver was still intrigued and applied. Since 1999, she’s worked at different prisons throughout Oregon. The worst days as a correctional officer are the days when a colleague gets hurt. It doesn’t happen often, especially at Deer Ridge, since it’s a minimum-security facility. “If something breaks out, we are a team. … We jump in, we take care of it and we have each other’s backs,” Frost said. Frost is often the officer in charge of the prison, which means she comes in at about 5 a.m. and is checking everything. She’s ensuring the roads are safe for transports. She’s checking out the fences, looking for any holes or anything abnormal. One of the best parts, Frost said, is watching inmates go home. That’s one reason she likes working at Deer Ridge, because it’s a releasing institution. “It’s a wonderful thing to have them go with their families,” Frost said. “It’s the start, it’s like the restart of their life path. … When they get to minimum, they are so excited and so close to being (released) they get it down to the days. It’s seven days and a wake up. Six days and a wake up.”

“He seemed to be in a state of confusion,” said Yosof Wanly, the imam at the Salman Al-Farisi Islamic Center in Corvallis, regarding Mohamed Osman Mohamud. “He would say things that weren’t true. ‘I’m going to go get married,’ for example. But he wasn’t getting married.” hamud sometimes worshipped. The president of the Islamic center, Imtiaz Khan, shared that concern, and said in an interview that he worried that the mosque and Islam in general would be portrayed unfairly because of the arrest. A sense of suspicion and worry prevailed. Khan and Day said several people who worship at the mosque said that FBI agents had knocked on their doors late at night on the day of Mohamud’s arrest, but that none had agreed to speak to the agents. “People were finding cards in the doors that said FBI,” Day said. The mosque, the largest in Portland, has been at the center of controversy before. In 2002, the mosque’s imam, Sheik Mohamed Abdirahman Kariye,

who — like Mohamud — is a naturalized American citizen from Somalia, was arrested at Portland International Airport. Prosecutors said that trace elements of TNT were found in his luggage, though those tests were later said to be inconclusive and he was not convicted of any crime. Kariye did not immediately respond to a request for comment made through Day, but Khan repeated that Mohamud’s actions were his own. “Whatever this event is, it has nothing to do with the mosque,” Khan said. Mohamud, his younger sister and their parents had long lived in the Portland area, including in Beaverton, a suburb that has

a small Somali population. Mohamud’s family fled Somalia in the early 1990s, and his father, Osman Barre, a welleducated engineer, worked to establish them in Oregon. “Osman was very sophisticated,” said Chris Oace, a former refugee worker for Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon who helped the family resettle here in the early 1990s. “Some refugees are afraid of having Christian churches help them. But it wasn’t an issue with his family at all.” Stephanie Napier, a former neighbor, said the family had been quiet but friendly and that Mohamud’s mother was fiercely proud of her only son. “He seemed like a great kid,”

I didn’t care. I had assaults and a negative attitude.” The 34-year-old inmate has been in every prison in Oregon, from the maximum-security facilities to the minimum. He’s gained skills behind bars. He’s learned to weld. When he gets out, he wants to use the skill to help support himself. He’s also hoping to use his background as a crack-dealing gang member to help young people who might be attracted to a similar lifestyle. He’s been in prison since he was 20 years old. He’s never seen Google and hardly used the Internet. His daughter was 3 years old when he “fell,” and now she’s bound for Howard University on an academic scholarship, hoping to study law. Every month he spends $20 to call his daughter. Warren said he believes people know if they will be coming back to prison or not. He said it’s not an option for him.

No. No model would be perfect,” she said. “You can have a model that shows you a solution and then you can actually go into the field and have some houses that have low pressure because of that (change).” The city has already seen some cost savings as a result of following some suggestions in the Optimatics study. According to Bend’s Finance Department, the city spent $725,842 to pump water and run wells in fiscal year 2008-09. The following fiscal year, which ended June 30, the city spent $652,900. The city’s contract with Optimatics, which has included change orders for additional work, is for $517,597.40.

At some point over the last year or so, however, Mohamud’s parents separated, and tensions grew in the family. A longtime friend of Mohamud’s family said Barre, who eventually became an engineer for Intel, could be temperamental. Several people who said they knew Mohamud’s family said they believed his parents had reported their son to law enforcement authorities, citing concerns that his views were becoming extreme. Those people refused to be quoted by name. A law enforcement official, who was not authorized to publicly discuss certain aspects of the case, said investigators first became aware of Mohamud because of what the official said were his efforts to connect with Islamic extremists through e-mail. Soon after that they received a tip from someone who knows him, alerting them to what the official described as increased radicalization. According to the federal affidavit for his arrest, Mohamud at one point wrote in an e-mail that he felt “betrayed”

by his family. Family members could not be reached for comment. Cawo Abdi, a professor of sociology at the University of Minnesota who studies Somali youth, said some young Somali men in the United States struggle to find a sense of belonging. “They are trying to find somewhere they can fit in,” said Abdi. “This has led some to join gangs while others are lured by the Jihadist websites and YouTube videos on the Internet.” But for those who knew Mohamud in Corvallis, a liberal college town whose engineering program draws a sizable number of international students, assimilation didn’t seem to be the problem. Kassim, the Oregon State student, said Mohamud seemed to be a normal student, playing basketball at the recreation center, talking about girls, and obsessing about the Portland Trailblazers, his favorite team. Mohamed Alyajouri, 31, who is married with three kids, said he was in shock when he heard of Mohamud’s arrest and concerned about the effect on Muslims everywhere. “This kid had friends here, went to school here,” said Alyajouri. “It’s so stupid. Nobody I know thinks that way. But we have to deal with this now.”

Officials assail WikiLeaks, try to curb damage By Ginger Thompson New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — As a trove of confidential State Department documents was disclosed Sunday, officials said they had already taken several steps to prevent a recurrence of such an extensive leak. The measures were part of a broad effort by the Obama administration to reassure foreign governments and U.S. personnel around the world even as they began poring over the newly disclosed material. In a statement, a Pentagon spokesman, Bryan Whitman, said the measures included limiting the numbers of offices and computers that can be used to move classified material to unclassified systems, and establishing fraud detection monitors, similar to those currently used by credit card companies, to help detect unusual data access or usage. He said the Pentagon had established “insider threat working groups” to identify security gaps that led to the WikiLeaks disclosures and had reviewed information security protocols.

WikiLeaks Continued from A1 A statement from the White House on Sunday said: “We condemn in the strongest terms the unauthorized disclosure of classified documents and sensitive national security information.”

Revelations The cables, a huge sampling of the daily traffic between the State Department and some 270 embassies and consulates, amount to a secret chronicle of U.S. relations with the world in an age of war and terrorism. Among their revelations, to be detailed in The Times in coming days: • A dangerous standoff with Pakistan over nuclear fuel: Since 2007, the U.S. has mounted a highly secret effort, so far unsuccessful, to remove from a Pakistani research reactor highly enriched uranium that U.S. officials fear could be diverted for use in an illicit nuclear device. • Gaming out an eventual collapse of North Korea: U.S. and South Korean officials have discussed the prospects for a unified Korea, should the North’s economic troubles and political transition lead the state to implode. The U.S. ambassador to Seoul told Washington in February that South Korean officials believe the right business deals would “help salve” China’s “concerns about living with a reunified Korea” that is in a “benign alliance” with the United States. • Bargaining to empty the Guantanamo Bay prison: When U.S. diplomats pressed other countries to resettle detainees, they became reluctant players in a State Department version of “Let’s Make a Deal.” Slovenia was told to take a prisoner if it wanted to meet with President Barack Obama, while the island nation of Kiribati was offered incentives worth millions of dollars to take in Chinese Muslim detainees, cables from diplomats recounted. • Suspicions of corruption in the Afghan government: When Afghanistan’s vice president visited the United Arab Emirates last year, local authorities working with the Drug Enforcement Administration discovered he was carrying $52 million in cash. With wry understatement, a cable from the U.S. Embassy in Kabul called the money “a significant amount” that the official, Ahmed Zia Massoud, “was ultimately allowed to keep without revealing the money’s origin or destination.” (Massoud denies taking any money out of Afghanistan.)

“Bottom line, it is now much more difficult for a determined actor to get access and move information outside authorized channels.” — Bryan Whitman, Pentagon spokesman

The Associated Press ile photo

Hundreds of thousands of U.S. State Department documents leaked Sunday revealed much about a hidden world of international diplomacy. “Bottom line,” Whitman wrote, “it is now much more difficult for a determined actor to get access and move information outside authorized channels.” The documents are the latest in a series originally obtained by WikiLeaks, an organization devoted to exposing official secrets, allegedly from a disenchanted,

low-level Army intelligence analyst who had exploited a security loophole in the military’s computer network. Efforts at damage control had begun days before news organizations posted their first articles about the documents on their websites. The State Department spokes-

• A global computer hacking effort: China’s Politburo directed the intrusion into Google’s computer systems in that country, a Chinese contact told the U.S. Embassy in Beijing in January, one cable reported. The Google hacking was part of a coordinated campaign of computer sabotage carried out by government operatives, private security experts and Internet outlaws recruited by the Chinese government. • Mixed records against terrorism: Saudi donors remain the chief financiers of Sunni militant groups like al-Qaida, and the tiny Persian Gulf state of Qatar, a generous host to the U.S. military for years, was the “worst in the region” in counterterrorism efforts, according to a State Department cable last December. • Clashes with Europe over human rights: U.S. officials sharply warned Germany in 2007 not to enforce arrest warrants for CIA officers involved in a bungled operation in which an innocent German citizen was mistakenly kidnapped and held for months in Afghanistan. A senior U.S. diplomat told a German official “that our intention was not to threaten Germany, but rather to urge that the German government weigh carefully at every step of the way the implications for relations with the U.S.” The 251,287 cables, first acquired by WikiLeaks, were provided to The Times by an intermediary on the condition of anonymity. Many are unclassified, and none are marked “top secret,” the government’s most secure communications status. But some 11,000 are classified “secret,” 9,000 are labeled “noforn,” shorthand for material considered too delicate to be shared with any foreign government, and 4,000 are designated both secret and noforn.

ing whether a lurking rickshaw driver in Lahore, Pakistan, was awaiting fares or conducting surveillance of the road to the U.S. Consulate. They show U.S. officials managing relations with a China on the rise and a Russia retreating from democracy. They document years of painstaking effort to prevent Iran from building a nuclear weapon — and of worry about a possible Israeli strike on Iran with the same goal.

Information held back The Times, after consultations with the State Department, has withheld from articles and removed from documents it is posting online the names of some people who spoke privately to diplomats and might be at risk if they were publicly identified. The Times is also withholding some passages or entire cables whose disclosure could compromise U.S. intelligence efforts. The cables show that nearly a decade after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the dark shadow of terrorism still dominates the United States’ relations with the world. They depict the Obama administration struggling to sort out which Pakistanis are trustworthy partners against al-Qaida, adding Australians who have disappeared in the Middle East to terrorist watch lists, and assess-

New details Even when they recount events that are already known, the cables offer remarkable details. For instance, it has been previously reported that the Yemeni government has sought to cover up the U.S. role in missile strikes against the local branch of alQaida. But a cable’s fly-on-thewall account of a January meeting between the Yemeni president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, and Gen. David Petraeus, then the U.S. commander in the Middle East, is nonetheless breathtaking. “We’ll continue saying the bombs are ours, not yours,” Saleh said, according to the cable sent by the U.S. ambassador, prompting Yemen’s deputy prime minister to “joke that he had just ‘lied’ by telling Parliament” that Yemeni forces had carried out the strikes. The cables also disclose frank comments behind closed doors. Dispatches from early this year, for instance, quote the aging monarch of Saudi Arabia, King Abdullah, as speaking scathingly about the leaders of Iraq and Pakistan. Speaking to another Iraqi official about Nouri al-Maliki, the Iraqi prime minister, King Abdullah said, “You and Iraq are in my heart, but that man is not.” The king called President Asif Ali Zardari of Pakistan the greatest obstacle to that country’s progress. “When the head is rotten,” he said, “it affects the whole body.” In an era of satellites and fiberoptic links, the diplomatic cable retains the archaic name of an earlier technological era. It has long been the tool for the secretary of state to dispatch orders to the field and for ambassadors and political officers to send their analyses back to Washington. But the drama in the cables often comes from diplomats’ narratives of meetings with foreign figures, games of diplomatic poker in which each side is sizing up the other and neither is showing all its cards. Among the most fascinating examples recount U.S. officials’ meetings in September 2009 and February 2010 with Ahmed Wali Karzai, the half brother of the Af-

man, Philip Crowley, said, “Thus far, governments have reacted cautiously and constructively. They are doing what we are doing, trying to assess the impact of the release. But no one is happy about it. The risk to everyone has gone up.” A White House statement said, “We condemn in the strongest terms the unauthorized disclosure of classified documents and sensitive national security information.” Leading members of Congress echoed the administration. Some called on the administration to charge Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, with espionage. Rep. Peter King of New York, a Republican who is likely to become the next chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said the latest disclosure

“manifests Mr. Assange’s purposeful intent to damage not only our national interests in fighting the war on terror, but also undermines the very safety of coalition forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.” King also urged the State Department to designate WikiLeaks a terrorist organization. Reactions had not yet begun to arrive from governments around the world. However, the U.S. ambassador to France, Charles Rivkin, said in a statement to the French newspaper Le Monde that the U.S. “profoundly regrets” the disclosure. “I am convinced that citizens of good will, will recognize that the internal reports written by diplomats do not alone represent the official foreign policy of a nation,” Rivkin wrote. “In the United States, they constitute just

ghan president and a power broker in the Taliban’s home turf of Kandahar. They describe Karzai, “dressed in a crisp white shalwar kameez,” the traditional dress of loose tunic and trousers, appearing “nervous, though eager to express his views on the international presence in Kandahar,” and trying to win over the Americans with nostalgic tales about his years running a Chicago restaurant near Wrigley Field. But in midnarrative there is a stark alert for anyone reading the cable in Washington: “Note: While we must deal with AWK as the head of the Provincial Council, he is widely understood to be corrupt and a narcotics trafficker.” (Karzai has repeatedly

denied such charges.) And the cables note statements by Karzai that the Americans, informed by a steady flow of eavesdropping and agents’ reports, believe to be false. The possibility that a large number of diplomatic cables might become public has been discussed in government and media circles since May. That was when, in an online chat, an Army intelligence analyst, Pfc. Bradley Manning, described having downloaded from a military computer system many classified documents, including “260,000 State Department cables from embassies and consulates all over the world.” Manning was arrested. He has been charged with illegally leaking classified

one element among others that contribute to the forging of our policies, which are determined, in the end, by the president and the secretary of state.” Britain’s government sent word that it did not expect the disclosures to damage relations with Washington. “We have a very strong relationship with the United States,” it said in a written statement from the British Foreign Office. “That will continue.” A senior German official said while the government there would reserve final judgment on the documents, it did not expect the WikiLeaks disclosures to affect Germany’s relations with Washington. The official said diplomats would be judged on their work, not on their leaked private communications. The State Department cables represented the third cache of confidential U.S. documents to be released by WikiLeaks this year. Documents released earlier included Pentagon incident-and-intelligence reports from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

information and faces a possible court-martial and, if convicted, a lengthy prison term. In July and October, The New York Times, the British newspaper The Guardian and the German magazine Der Spiegel published articles based on documents about Afghanistan and Iraq. Those collections of dispatches were placed online by WikiLeaks, with selective redactions of the Afghan documents and much heavier redactions of the Iraq reports.

Gates weighs changes to military health plan By Elisabeth Bumiller and Thom Shanker New York Times News Service

Silvia Izquierdo / The Associated Press

An alleged drug trafficker known as Zeu, center, is arrested during a police operation Sunday in the Complexo do Alemao slum in Rio de Janeiro.

Brazil police raid Rio slum The Associated Press RIO DE JANEIRO — Police and soldiers charged into Rio’s most dangerous slum at daybreak Sunday, seizing the bastion of the city’s biggest drug gang in a battle to make the seaside metropolis safe for the Olympics and soccer’s World Cup. Black-clad officers poured into the Alemao slum complex amid

heavy gunfire, with helicopters flying low overhead. But the officers encountered less resistance than expected and they declared victory two hours later, even if many gang members still remained inside. A Brazilian flag was raised at the shantytown’s highest point at midday. It was the biggest victory yet in a two-year effort to drive drug

gangs from their strongholds in the hundreds of shantytowns, many draped across the hills around Rio’s beaches, a crusade driven in part by the need to make foreign visitors feel secure for the final matches of the 2014 World Cup and for the 2016 Olympics that are meant to be showpieces of Brazil’s emergence as growing world force.

Google Continued from A1 Google, which only 12 years ago was a scrappy startup in a garage, now finds itself viewed in Silicon Valley as the big, lumbering incumbent. Inside the company some of its best engineers are chafing under the growing bureaucracy and are leaving to start or work at smaller, nimbler companies. Recent departures include lowlevel engineers, product managers and prominent managers like Lars Rasmussen, who helped create Google Maps and Wave before he left for Facebook, and Omar Hamoui, the founder of AdMob who was vice president of mobile ads at Google and is now looking for his next project. At least 142 of Facebook’s employees came from Google. Corporate sclerosis is a problem for all companies as they grow. But a hardening of the bureaucracy and a slower pace of work is even more perceptible in Silicon Valley, where companies grow at Internet speed and pride themselves on constant innovation — and where the most talented people are often those with the most entrepreneurial drive. Much of Silicon Valley’s innovation comes about as engineers leave companies to start their own. For Google, which in five years has grown to 23,000 employees from 5,000 and to $23.7 billion in revenue from $3.2 billion, the risk is that it will miss the best people and the next great idea. “It’s a short step from scale to sclerosis,” said Daniel Pink, an author and analyst on the workplace. “It becomes a more acute problem in Silicon Valley, where in a couple years, you could have some competitor in a garage ready to put you out entirely.”

Taking steps Google’s chief executive, Eric Schmidt, says that people who think Google faces brain drain are “fundamentally wrong.” The company’s attrition rate for people it wished would stay has been constant for seven years, he said. Nevertheless, Google’s maturation worries him. “There was a time when three people at Google could build a world-class product and deliver it, and it is gone,” Schmidt said. “So I think it’s absolutely harder to get things out the door. That’s probably our biggest strategic issue.” As a result, Google is taking aggressive steps to retain employees, particularly those with startup ambitions.

WASHINGTON — Francis Brady enjoys a six-figure salary and generous benefits at the consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton, but as a retired Marine lieutenant colonel, he and his family remain on the military’s bountiful lifetime health insurance, Tricare, with fees of only $460 a year. He calls the benefit “phenomenal.” Of nearly 4.5 million military retirees and their families, about three-quarters are estimated to have access to health insurance through a civilian employer or group. But more than 2 million of them stay on Tricare. As the costs of private health care con-

tinue to climb, their numbers are only expected to grow. Now, as part of a broad offensive to cut Pentagon spending, that group is once again in the sights of Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who is considering whether to ask for Tricare fee increases in next year’s budget. The battle over Tricare pits the efforts of the Pentagon to contain the exploding cost of health care for nearly 10 million eligible beneficiaries against the pain and emotions of those who say they have “paid up front” with service in uniform, particularly those who deployed to America’s two current wars. The arguments reflect the broader debate over the huge Pentagon budget that will inten-

sify next year when Gates continues his campaign to cut off what he calls the “gusher” of defense spending. Total health care costs for the Pentagon, which is the nation’s single largest employer, top $50 billion a year, a tenth of its budget. “Health care costs are eating the Defense Department alive,” Gates said in a much-noticed speech in May. Veterans groups and military officers’ lobbies have responded by going on high alert. One of the most powerful of them, the Military Officers Association of America, is preparing a public relations campaign that will focus on what it calls the broken promise between the nation and the people who defend it.

W B Europe approves Irish aid, new rules BRUSSELS — Fighting to prevent an accelerating debt crisis from engulfing Portugal and Spain, Europe’s finance ministers approved an 85 billion euro bailout package for Ireland, while also agreeing for the first time to hold private investors accountable for losses in future crises, beginning in 2013. With the European Union engaged in a high-stakes battle with financial markets, the move to include bondholders in any future debt restructuring represents an important milestone in the current crisis because the countries stood together on an issue that had caused sharp divisions in recent weeks. The decision is aimed at ending uncertainty over future rules for the euro zone, made up of the 16 countries that use the euro. Some policymakers had said that a lack of clarity about what would happen when the current bailout provisions ended in

2013 was a contributing factor in the recent market turmoil that led Ireland to ask for aid and that now threatens other countries.

McFarland said he knew it was time to leave when the number of people he had to copy on e-mail messages ballooned. one example. The engineering team, based in Sydney, Australia, worked independently and got equity in the project, according to three people briefed on the agreement. But Google shut down Wave this year, and Rasmussen, who led the project, quit for Facebook soon after. Google is considering opening a startup incubator inside the company, according to two people briefed on the plans. Other big companies have made similar attempts with varying success. Cisco Systems’ program has given birth to new businesses like TelePresence, a videoconferencing service, but Yahoo’s incubator was shut down in 2008, a year and a half after it started. From the beginning, Google’s founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, have tried to prevent atrophy. That is one reason Google gives everyone time — called 20 percent time at the company — to work on their own projects. The company tries to limit groups of engineers working on projects to 10. But in reality, engineering groups quickly swell to 20 or even 40, several Google product managers said. And new products created during 20 percent time are less likely to get anywhere these days.

Fewer new products Popular Google products like Gmail grew out of 20 percent time, for instance. But engineers say they have been encouraged to build fewer new products and focus on building improvements to existing ones, like the terrain layer on Google Maps. “There’s a lot of these cool features that are very hidden, and a lot of people worked very hard on them and they were kind of sad that they spent a year of their life on something that gets 0.1 percent usage,” said another product manager who is considering leaving for a startup. Part of Google’s problem is that the best engineers are often the ones with the most entrepreneurial thirst. Google loaded up on that type in its early hiring. Some of those go-getters now

want to leave as they become frustrated with the processes and procedures. Josh McFarland, a former Google product manager who left last year and started TellApart, which helps retailers advertise online, said he knew it was time to leave as the number of people he had to copy on e-mail messages ballooned. “I think that there is a class of person who is able to walk away from this relatively easy, consistent money because they are so dissatisfied with the processes of a big company,” he said. For others, it is about making more money elsewhere. Startups have a riskier and potentially more rewarding lure: shares in a company before an initial public offering. Google, which has always been generous with salary, stock options and benefits like massages, dry cleaning and free food, is going a step further to keep employees happy. This month, Google gave every employee a raise of 10 percent or more. The motivation was, in part, the “war for talent,” Schmidt said. People who have other job offers have been persuaded to stay with seven-figure bonuses. Google says 80 percent of people who get a counteroffer stay put. Of those who leave, employees going to Facebook get the most attention. According to resumés posted on LinkedIn, 142 of Facebook’s 1,700 employees came from Google. Schmidt dismissed the idea that Facebook was poaching Google’s best people, saying, “We hire more people in a week than go to Facebook in its lifetime.” Despite Google’s growing pains, it remains remarkably innovative when it wants to be. Last month, for instance, it unveiled robotic cars that drive themselves. And like many big companies, Google has been acquiring new technologies, like Android, instead of inventing them. Schmidt said that while he worries about the consequences of becoming a big company, “People are dying to come here and they’re staying,” he said. “So I guess they’re putting up with the complexity.”

Water quality may get a boost

HIGH DESERT WEATHER

Freezing rain, high winds, snow in forecast

Deschutes County leaders to discuss DEQ grant proposal for contaminated areas

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

A storm rolling in from the Pacific Ocean is forecast to bring more snow, freezing rain and wind gusts up to 40 mph to Central Oregon starting tonight. The National Weather Service on Sunday issued a winter storm watch that takes effect this evening and is anticipated to continue through Tuesday night for most of Deschutes County and part of Jefferson County. Mountainous areas could receive 5 to 10 inches of snow, while lower elevations will likely get 2 to 5 inches, said Ann Adams, an assistant forecaster for the weather service in Pendleton. A second winter storm watch for eastern Jefferson and Deschutes counties and most of Crook County takes effect Tuesday morning and is expected to continue through Wednesday morning. The mountainous areas covered by the second storm watch could receive more snow — from 9 to 16 inches — and the lower elevations should receive 2 to 5 inches, Adams said. The precipitation could also hit lower areas as freezing rain, Adams said. “That might add up, as far as ice.” This storm will be warmer and wetter than the last system, which came down from Canada, Adams said. Even after the brunt of the storm hits Central Oregon, the weather service forecast shows a chance of snow and rain showers in Bend every day through Sunday. Later this week, temperatures should be in the 30s during the day, with overnight lows in the 20s. Prineville has a similar forecast for the second half of the week, with snow and rain showers predicted through Sunday, and daytime highs in the 30s and overnight lows in the 20s, according to the National Weather Service website. The forecast also shows continued snow and rain showers in Madras for the rest of the week. Temperatures will be in the 30s during the daytime later this week, and in the 20s overnight, according to the weather service. On Friday, the overnight low could dip as low as 19 degrees.

Sales in the gray Retailers give mixed reviews to start of holiday shopping season By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

REDMOND — ason Zlatkus, owner of The Hive gaming and toy store in downtown Redmond, went into the Black Friday weekend with great hopes for sales to be up from last year. The Hive moved to a larger store two months ago, sales had been increasing already, and Zlatkus said he booked Mike Hampton, a “pretty famous comic book artist” who created the comic “Hot Zombie Chicks,” to make an appearance Friday. Zlatkus even checked the Black Friday deals advertised by other stores to make sure they wouldn’t beat his prices. But by Sunday afternoon, Zlatkus said the bump in sales at the “Numbers-wise, start of the holiday shopping seait wasn’t a son was similar to last year, and fell short of his expectations for significant bump, improvement this year. but it was a “Sales-wise, I would have to say it was somewhat disappointing,” little better than Zlatkus said. “I assumed since last year, which sales in general were up, that Black we were happy Friday would be up.

A proposal from Oregon’s environmental agency to create a grant fund to help areas with water quality problems is among the potential pieces of legislation the Deschutes County Commission will discuss this afternoon. The fund would be created specifically for areas with health or water quality problems resulting from If you go septic systems, What: Deschutes such as the conCounty tamination of Commission southern Deswork session chutes CounWhen: 1:30 p.m. ty’s aquifer. The Oregon today Department of Where: 1300 Environmental N.W. Wall Street, Quality wants Bend the Legislature to pay for the fund with grants, gifts and civil penalty fines collected from people or companies who violate on-site septic system rules, according to the department’s legislative concept fact sheet. Bob Baggett, on-site wastewater specialist with the Bend DEQ office, said Sunday he was not familiar with the details of the proposal.

La Pine area could benefit from grants Nitrates from septic systems have been an issue in the La Pine area since at least the 1980s, and a U.S. Geological Survey study that started in 1999 found 10 percent of the drinking water wells sampled contained more nitrates than would be expected naturally. The study also determined the contamination would increase in the coming decades. Yet the issue has remained controversial, as many residents worried about the cost of installing nitrate-reducing septic systems and some did not trust scientific studies of the nitrates. After residents rejected a Deschutes County law aimed at protecting the groundwater in a vote in 2009, the Department of Environmental Quality took over the job of finding a solution to prevent pollution. The department’s concept for the grant fund does not specify how much money staff hope to raise. See Water / B2

Redmond to decide if ice rink will be put in Centennial Park By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

Redmond could soon have an outdoor skating rink, a possibility the Redmond City Council is scheduled to decide during a special morning meeting Tuesday. City leaders are rushing to get the rink in place by the middle of December, but some issues are outstanding. City staff is finalizing what the maintenance costs on the proposed 4,000square-foot rink would be and how many hours employees would have to spend on the work. Buying the rink supplies — from cooling system to rental ice skates — will likely cost about $45,000, and the

city’s Downtown Urban Renewal District will fund the project if the council approves it. If people own skates, they will be able to skate for free. City Councilor Jay Patrick likes the idea of the rink, but he wants to be certain the council understands the reality before approving the purchase. “It would be great for the winter and public if we’re able to do it,” Patrick said. “But a number of questions need to be answered. We know some of the cost, but we don’t know all of it.” City Manager David Brandt said Redmond staff remains at work on answering the council’s questions. Time, though, is running out if the city wants to open the rink for this winter.

“We’re still in the feasibility stage,” Brandt said. Since the park opened this year, the city has been working to find yearround uses for it. In the summer, the park hosted several days of the city’s centennial celebration. A farmers’ market, for which the city recently announced a call for a new manager, also uses the park. Even with those activities, there was not much going on during the winter in Centennial Park. Recently, city staff came up with the idea for the rink. That timing has left staff rushing to turn the idea into reality before the new year. See Rink / B2

Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

For now, Centennial Park is quiet, but the Redmond City Council is considering changing that by approving a plan to install a skating rink there. If the plan moves forward, the 4,000-square-foot rink could open by mid-December.

Continued from B1 “It was pretty crazy, and I’m sure a lot of it had to do with us moving over to this side of town with the skiing and stuff,” Jorgensen said. The timing of the opening of Mt. Bachelor ski and snowboard area — the day before Thanksgiving — helped sales at Aspect Board Shop on Northwest Galveston Avenue in Bend, said store manager Obie O’Brien. Sales were higher this year over last year, O’Brien said, “not by a lot, but probably by $1,000 more.” This year, it didn’t seem like many customers had traveled to Bend for the holiday, but there were a lot of local customers, O’Brien added. Gifts to help people enjoy the cold weather — hats and scarves — were popular with customers at Vanilla Urban Threads in Bend’s Old Mill District over the weekend. Store owner April Lawyer said sales were up from last year, on Black Friday and through the rest of the weekend. “This year probably was not our best year, but close,” Lawyer said. Last year, business at the boutiqueatmosphere clothing shop for women and men was slow on the morning after Thanksgiving. But this year, the Vanilla Urban Threads was busy all day, Lawyer said. “Numbers-wise, it wasn’t a significant bump, but it was a little better than last

year, which we were happy about,” Lawyer said. Just down the street in the Old Mill District, Allyson’s Kitchen had a disappointing start to the holiday shopping season, said owner Lynne Galligan. “For our Bend location, we were actually as good as last year for Friday, then it was slower than last year on Saturday,” Galligan said Sunday, speaking by telephone from the store’s second location in Ashland. Many people who came into both stores over the weekend checked out the cooking tools, gourmet food and cookbooks, but did not purchase anything. Potential customers did not seem to be in as much of a hurry to buy gifts, Galligan said. “Hopefully it will get better,” Galligan said. “It seems like last year, they bought early.” For some local stores, Black Friday is not a make-or-break sales event. At Canyon Creek Pottery in Sisters, owner and potter Ken Merrill said a few more people came into his shop over the weekend this year, “but nobody was spending any money.” But that’s normal for Merrill, who usually experiences an uptick in business closer to Christmas and also receives holiday gift orders throughout the year. Holiday shopping “usually starts two weeks before Christmas for me,” Merrill said.

O Food fight over ‘yogi’ Several legal disputes under way over who has rights to the name behind Eugene company’s products By Sherri Buri McDonald The (Eugene) Register-Guard

EUGENE — Six years after the death of spiritual leader Yogi Bhajan, three legal battles are under way in Oregon and California over the use of the name “yogi” in food products and ingredients. In the late 1960s, India-born Yogi Bhajan founded a Sikh community in the United States, which created Golden Temple, a cereal and tea producer in Eugene that became an anchor of the local natural foods industry. In May, Golden Temple sold its cereal division to Hearthside Food Solutions, a manufacturer based in Illinois. Now Golden Temple officials say their sole focus is on growing Yogi Tea, a natural tea business with 50 employees in Springfield and about 100 employees in Europe. But the outcomes of the trademark disputes could throw a wrench in those plans. For instance, if Yogi Bhajan’s widow, Bibiji, prevails in arbitration in Portland with Golden Temple over trademark issues, she will license the brand to another tea manufacturer — not Golden Temple, her attorney Surjit Soni said. “Golden Temple will not be allowed to use it,” he said. In February, Bibiji sued Golden Temple for trademark infringement in U.S. District Court in California. In court documents, she says that as a successor to her husband’s estate, she controls the trademarks used by or connected with her husband, while Golden Temple says that it owns the rights to Yogi trademarks. In June, the case was dismissed and referred to arbitration in Portland. Neither party is sharing details about arbitration. Bibiji alleges that as far back as 1969, Yogi Bhajan served his yoga students a spiced tea he had developed, which the students called “Yogi Tea.” In the mid-1980s, a group of his students formed a company to sell the tea, and Yogi Bhajan granted the company a license to use his name, likeness, and the trademark “Yogi Tea.” That license was renewed for 75 years on Oct. 1, 2004, just five days before Yogi Bhajan died, according to court documents. Half of the royalty payments from the licensing agreement were to go to Bibiji and half to a trust called “Staff Endowment” to benefit 15 female assistants who had served Yogi Bhajan for years.

Paul Carter / The (Eugene) Register-Guard

Products carrying the Yogi name are at the center of a brand dispute involving the Golden Temple company. “Yogi Tea was a mark that was associated with Yogi Bhajan,” Soni, the widow’s attorney, said. “He was the one who initially coined it. He’s the one who produced the product and served it to students at his classes. … He’s the one who created Yogi Tea.” Golden Temple had been paying royalties for the right to use the Yogi Tea brand, Soni said. However, in late 2008, Golden Temple terminated the license and stopped paying royalties, according to court documents. Bibiji alleges that the company continues to use the Yogi Tea name, even though it lacks the right to do so. Golden Temple interprets the license more narrowly, to cover the use of Yogi Bhajan’s name and likeness, and argues that Golden Temple has rights to the marks based on years of use and federal trademark registrations, according to court documents. Golden Temple also is defending its trademark rights against two California companies. On August 6, 2009, Golden Temple sued Wai Lana Productions, a California company that sells chips and snack bars, alleging that Wai Lana uses marks that are “confusingly similar” to Yogi Tea marks. Wai Lana is a yoga instructor whose TV series appears on many PBS stations, according to the Wai Lana website. The site sells her yoga videos and accessories, as well as glutenfree snacks, including Yogi Chips and Yogi fruit and nut bars.

Golden Temple wants Wai Lana to stop using the Yogi marks, cancel its registration of any Yogi marks, recall and destroy all goods bearing these marks and pay damages. Wai Lana’s attorneys asked to have proceedings in U.S. District Court in Portland postponed, pending the outcome of the arbitration between Bibiji and Golden Temple. In early November, Judge Garr King postponed the proceedings. “The arbitration is currently scheduled for January 2011, only two months from now, and it will settle the question of who owns the marks,” King wrote. On Oct. 15, Golden Temple filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in California against another California company, YogiBotanicals, and its CEO, Ranbir Singh Bhai, the eldest son of Bibiji and Yogi Bhajan. Bhai also happens to be the “Ranbir” who appeared as a guru in white turban and robes in the 1986 film, “Down and Out in Beverly Hills,” starring Bette Midler and Richard Dreyfuss, according to Soni, who said he represents Bhai and his mother. The lawsuit alleges trademark infringement, unfair competition, breach of contract and unjust enrichment. Golden Temple wants YogiBotanicals to stop using the Yogi marks, abandon its registration of any Yogi marks, recall and destroy all goods bearing the marks and pay damages. Soni, Bhai’s attorney, said the

claims against YogiBotanicals “are really frivolous.” Golden Temple attorney Kenneth Davis characterizes the suit against YogiBotanicals, as well as the other two trademark cases, as “regular enforcement by Golden Temple of its trademark rights to protect its valuable brand.” The lawsuit against Bhai also alleges that he was overpaid and should repay $208,509.93 in commissions while employed by Tagtraum Tee, which is now a German subsidiary of Golden Temple. “That’s funny,” Soni said. “Golden Temple and Tagtraum both owe Ranbir a considerable amount of money.” Bhai was a buyer, not a salesman, Soni said. “He helped them identify and source for their needs the ingredients that they needed for their products,” such as ginger and cardamom, Soni said. “They were supposed to pay him and to buy a certain quantity. They didn’t do it.” Bhai has not yet filed an answer to the complaint. “We’ll wait for the answer and respond accordingly,” Davis, the Golden Temple attorney, said. In addition to the trademark disputes, Golden Temple managers also are involved in two other lawsuits in Multnomah County Circuit Court — one filed by the community’s religious leaders and another by the Oregon Attorney General John Kroger — which accuse company managers of unjustly enriching themselves and allowing the businesses of the religious nonprofit group to fall into private, for-profit ownership.

Ashland parade focuses on giving By Hannah Guzik Ashland Daily Tidings

ASHLAND — On a day when shoppers nationwide flocked to stores to buy discounted holiday presents, Ashland’s Festival of Light parade Friday focused instead on giving and recycling. During the 18th annual parade, Ashland Boy Scouts held Charlie Brown-esque pine trees, decked with flashing lights, and danced in a circle to promote the troop’s Christmas tree recycling on Jan. 8. Artists with the Lithia Artisans Market marched in penguin costumes made of papier-mâché to bring attention to the arts and handmade holiday gifts. And 9-year-old Tella Morris, her hair braided upward and tied in a heart above her head, handed out books to children as part of her family’s “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” float. “This is the awesomest parade ever,” she said, dancing in her Cindy Lou Who costume to a rendition of “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” by Ashland’s Dayton Dean & the River Kings. “Instead of sitting in a wagon doing princess waves, I get to hand out books. I feel like I’m kind of looking funny to the kids, but I’m glad I’m bringing laughter to them.” Tella’s mother, Shannon Morris, helped devise the Grinch float to promote reading and support children with

special needs, through the Council for Exceptional Children and Southern Oregon University’s masters in special education program. “I wanted my kids to learn what it means to give,” said Morris, who is enrolled in the master’s program. “We’re trying to focus not on tangible items but on the joy of giving. It’s not all about getting presents under the tree.” Charlee Tudor, 7, said she was excited to receive a book while watching the parade. “It’s really fun because I can read,” said the second-grader, who learned to read about two years ago. Charlee’s mother, Christie Tudor, said she was pleased to see the parade entries focusing on the spirit of the season. “It seems like the parade is focusing on the meaning of Christmas, which is nice for a change — it’s not just consumerism,” she said. As darkness descended over downtown, the parade came to an end on Water Street and Santa emerged from his sleigh to mount the stairs to a balcony overlooking the thousands gathered in the plaza. Leading the crowd in a countdown, he switched on more than a million lights strung on buildings and trees.

Don’t stop with breast pumps

en. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., knows a popular cause when he sees one. Unfortunately, as he focuses on the relatively small issue, the larger one apparently escapes him.

Merkley has joined the fight to persuade the Internal Revenue Service that breast pumps deserve to be treated as medical expenses eligible for reimbursement from flexible spending accounts and deductible on federal tax returns. Perhaps they do, but Merkley and his colleagues ought to be focusing on the larger problem, which is the way in which Uncle Sam is reducing the effectiveness of FSAs. Flexible spending accounts allow American workers to set aside money for medical expenses, and almost 30 percent of American employers make them available to their workers. Employees pay into the FSAs with pre-tax dollars and pay somewhat less in federal income taxes as a result. The accounts will become a bit less effective next year because the IRS made changes that will add an expected $5 billion to U.S. tax coffers through 2019, a minuscule amount in relation to the $3 trillion annual federal budget. Under the new rules, over-thecounter medicines won’t be eligible for FSA reimbursement unless the

purchaser obtains a doctor’s prescription for them. Nor will breast pumps, nor nicotine replacement gum. Merkley wants the pumps included as eligible expenses because, his staff says, he has been a big supporter of breast-feeding for years, and disagrees with the IRS ruling that pumps and supplies don’t offer enough preventive health benefits to qualify. Oddly, given the toll smoking takes, he apparently is unwilling to go to bat for Nicorette and other stop-smoking drugs. There’s worse to come. Beginning in 2013, FSAs will be capped at $2,500 per year, not much money for a family with young children. Again, Merkley hasn’t suggested that the cap be eliminated. But in a time of rising deductibles on employersupplied health insurance policies, FSAs offer Americans a rare opportunity to save some money on medical expenses. If Merkley and his colleagues really want to serve their constituents, they ought to mount a comprehensive defense of FSAs.

Foster homes need tough oversight T

he men and women charged with keeping children safe in the more than 4,000 foster homes around the state have what can sometimes be a nearly impossible task, and the current system under which they operate doesn’t make it any easier. That’s clear in the report issued Nov. 22 by a Critical Incident Response Team convened after a young Lane County boy was hospitalized with severe injuries, including burns and broken bones. The boy had been adopted by his former foster parents, with whom he was placed in 2005. They later pleaded guilty to charges of child abuse and now are serving prison sentences. Alona and Rodger Hartwig became foster parents in 2003; from then until last year, there were at least nine reports of suspected child abuse against them. All were either closed without contact with the family or determined to have been unfounded, and the home was recertified annually. Later, the Hartwigs adopted one of the children, a boy who was 9 at the time of the abuse that landed him in the hospital. After its investigation, the CIRT team made several recommendations that the state’s Department of Human Services is currently study-

ing. It plans to make them part of next year’s budget request of the state Legislature. Perhaps most important, the report found that caseworkers and others failed to give earlier complaints against the family proper consideration. That’s in part because there was no review of the complaints by a person who didn’t have a working relationship with the family. The CIRT team recommends that the Department of Human Services create a separate office to investigate child abuse complaints, one in which staffers have no ongoing relationship with those they’re being asked to investigate. It further asked that a formal statewide structure be created to review abuse complaints and that any foster parents accused more than once be subjected to further review. Putting the CIRT recommendations in place undoubtedly will cost money, and at a time when closing Oregon’s budget gap already will be painful, lawmakers and others may be tempted to argue that the cost outweighs the benefit. That’s a hard case to make, however. Foster children rely upon the state to look out for their safety, and that’s a responsibility the state must meet.

My Nickel’s Worth Wilderness bill The Nov. 19 Bulletin highlighted a major public lands bill that is ready for congressional action. One of the proposals, called Cathedral Rocks and Horse Heaven, would create new wilderness areas near the John Day River. Not only would it protect dramatic river cliffs, expansive desert landscapes and outstanding views (read more at www.onda.org), it would help local landowners and federal agencies consolidate land for better management. The proposal has wide support from the local community and is ready to go. I applaud Sen. Ron Wyden’s efforts to include Cathedral Rocks and Horse Heaven in the final bill and to encourage Senate leadership to pass it. Sen. Wyden and his capable staff have been responsible for a number of wilderness packages in recent years, like our own Badlands Wilderness. Please thank them for all their efforts and encourage them to push on. Matt Little Bend

Trim government Bulletin Editor John Costa wrote an excellent column on Nov. 21 about sacrifices made by our forefathers in the Revolutionary War. He concluded by writing that all of us need to make sacrifices today for the United States to avoid financial collapse. He is correct in this analysis. But some in this country have already made many fi-

nancial sacrifices, while others have sacrificed little at all. All government relies on the private sector for funding. Many private-sector citizens have lost jobs, businesses, savings and homes. I personally live on 40 to 50 percent less than a few years ago and feel fortunate to still be in business. The private sector — especially small business — has sacrificed. Meanwhile, many elected officials and public employees continue to enjoy bloated salaries and excessive benefits. They complain loudly about a few furlough days, forgoing salary increases and the potential cuts to their ridiculously generous benefits. Their unions spend millions to elect public officials who specialize in protecting government excess and financial pillaging of the private sector through more fees and taxes. It’s time we saw some real sacrifice outside of the private sector. Government employee salary and benefit cuts to comparable private-sector levels would do much to alleviate the current financial crisis that many elected officials helped start in the first place.

Truck fumes As a concerned citizen, I want to make a difference in regard to climate change. It wasn’t until 2004 that I became aware of global warming, and I set out to lower my carbon footprint. I bought a bicycle and started commut-

ing to work. I also purchased a bicycle trailer to attached to my bicycle, and I go grocery shopping. Will you try to make a difference? You will at least make a difference and require less polluting, and higher gas mileage, of these trucks. As a bicyclist, when they drive past me and I get a whiff of the exhaust, I feel as if I have taken my last breath. At the end of the day, let’s give our planet a fighting chance. It would be nice to leave the planet in better shape than we found it. There is certainly a very warm feeling that each and every one of us gets inside of us when we do the right thing. Kelly McDonald Bend

New state I fully agree with Tom Finley about his idea of creating a 51st state out of Oregon east of the Cascade mountain summits. It doesn’t seem to matter how we on the eastern side of the Cascades vote; the more populous counties on the west side will trump us every time. The last governor’s race and the vote on ballot Measures 66 and 67 are prime examples. If there were to be a new state created out of Central and Eastern Oregon, imagine the revenue that would be generated by “nonresident” hunters and vacationers coming here from the “valley.” It’s something to think about.

President Obama is wasting time with START treaty WASHINGTON — t’s a lame-duck session. Time is running out. Unemployment is high, the economy is dangerously weak and, with five weeks to go, no one knows what tax they’ll be paying on everything from income to dividends to death when the current rates expire Jan. 1. And what is the president demanding that Congress pass as “a top priority?” To what did he devote his latest weekly radio address? Ratification of his New START treaty. Good grief. Even among national security concerns, New START is way down at the bottom of the list. From the naval treaties of the 1920s to this day, arms control has oscillated between mere symbolism at its best to major harm at its worst, with general uselessness being the norm. The reason is obvious. The problem is never the weapon; it is the nature of the regime controlling the weapon. That’s why no one stays up nights worrying about British nukes, while everyone worries about Iranian nukes.

In Soviet days, arms control at least could be justified as giving us something to talk about when there was nothing else to talk about, symbolically relieving tensions between mortal enemies. It could be argued that it at least had a soporific and therapeutic effect in the age of “the balance of terror.” But in post-Soviet days? The Russians are no longer an existential threat. A nuclear exchange between Washington and Moscow is inconceivable. What difference does it make how many nukes Russia builds? If they want to spend themselves into penury creating a bloated nuclear arsenal, be our guest. President Obama insists that New START is important as a step toward his dream of a nuclear-free world. Where does one begin? A world without nukes would be the ultimate nightmare. We voluntarily disarm while the world’s rogues and psychopaths develop nukes in secret. Just last week we found out about a hidden, unknown, highly advanced North Korean uranium enrich-

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER ment facility. An ostensibly nuclear-free world would place these weapons in the hands of radical regimes that would not hesitate to use them against a civilized world that would have given up its deterrent. Moreover, Obama’s idea that the great powers must reduce their weapons to set a moral example for the rest of the world to disarm is simply childish. Does anyone seriously believe that the mullahs in Iran or the thugs in Pyongyang will in any way be deflected from their pursuit of nukes by a reduction in the U.S. arsenal? Obama’s New START treaty, like the rest, is 90 percent useless and 10 percent problematic. One difficulty is that it re-

stricts the number of delivery vehicles for nuclear weapons. But because some of these are dual-use, our ability to deliver long-range conventional weapons, a major U.S. strategic advantage, is constrained. The second problem is the recurrence of language in the treaty preamble linking offensive to defensive nuclear weaponry. We have a huge lead over the rest of the world in anti-missile defenses. Ever since the Reagan days, the Russians have been determined to undo this advantage. The New START treaty affirms the “interrelationship” between offense and defense. And Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has insisted that “the unchangeability of circumstances” — translation: no major advances in U.S. anti-missile deployment — is a condition of the entire treaty. The worst thing about this treaty, however, is that it is simply a distraction. It gives the illusion of doing something about nuclear danger by addressing a non-problem — Russia — while doing

nothing about the real problem — Iran and North Korea. The utter irrelevance of New START to nuclear safety was dramatically underscored last week by the revelation of that North Korean uranium enrichment plant, built with such sophistication that it left the former head of the Los Alamos National Laboratory “stunned.” It could become the ultimate proliferation factory. Pyongyang is already a serial proliferator. It has nothing else to sell. Iran, Syria and al-Qaida have the money to buy. Iran’s Islamic Republic lives to bring down the Great Satan. North Korea, nuclear-armed and in a succession crisis, has just shelled South Korean territory for the first time since the Korean armistice. Obama peddling New START is the guy looking for his wallet under the lamppost because that’s where the light is good — even though he lost the wallet on the other side of town.

States worry ‘Rookie’ looks back on full life overcrowded Through WWII and segregation, man prisons case counts his blessings could impact entire nation LOS ANGELES FIRE DEPARTMENT

By Bob Pool

Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — For 70 years Arnett Hartsfield has been called a rookie. And for most of that time, the truth behind the nickname haunted him. He was the 80th black man to join the Los Angeles Fire Department when he signed up in 1940. At the time he was a UCLA student aiming for an engineering career who needed the job to support his new wife. But when he reported for duty and was sent to an all-black fire house downtown, he couldn’t believe what he was getting into. “That hit me so hard. I wasn’t used to being segregated. My family had moved here from Seattle, where we didn’t have colored neighbors. My family was integrated — the only grandfather I ever saw was an Irishman from Belfast,” said Hartsfield, now 92.

Retired Los Angeles City Firefighter Arnett Hartsfield, 92, dons an original Bakelite helmet from Fire Station 30, where he first started in 1940, during a visit to the African-American Firefighters Museum in Los Angeles on October 21. Hartsfield is holding a turnout coat emblazoned with “Rookie,” which was his nickname for his entire career.

At Station 30 at the corner of Central Avenue and 14th Street, he sized up his co-workers. “I was going to UCLA and I looked After the war, Hartsfield returned to down on these men.

career in law would be over. Fortunately, we weren’t.” By then, Hartsfield had enrolled in law school at USC, relying on the GI Bill to cover his tuition and book costs. He was mapping out a career change but still needed to keep working as a firefighter to put food on the table for his wife and three children.

USC Law Review Hartsfield, whose undergraduate degree was in pre-engineering, remembers struggling and taking a summer session law course. He was dismayed to learn that the class would be taught by a visiting scholar from Louisiana. The Southern professor would probably kick him out of class, he remembers worrying at the time. Instead, with the visiting professor’s help, “I went from almost failing to Law Review. I was the lowest man there, but I was on Law Review,” Hartsfield said. He earned his USC law degree in 1955. In early 1961 he quit the Fire Department to practice law full-time. His work as an attorney lead to a new job: professor of black studies at Cal State Long Beach. Hartsfield said he tried not to dwell on his years in the department. He sometimes talked to his students about the discrimination he and other black firefighters experienced in L.A. But he was quick to explain that back then, “it wasn’t just the Fire Department — it was bad everywhere.” “I encouraged my students not to look down on the Fire Department, that it’s a darn good job,” he said. He taught for some 26 years, leaving the university at age 70. During retirement, Hartsfield felt the pull of his days at the Los Angeles Fire Department. Over time, he became more involved with the Stentorians, the black firefighters group that today has about 400 members from the city and county fire departments, according to Brent Burton, a Los Angeles County fire captain who is president of the group. Hartsfield said he’s come to believe it was important to memorialize his

experiences in the department, as painful as some of them were. In 1997, he helped open the African-American Firefighters Museum in the long-abandoned Station 30 building. He still volunteers three days a week there, where his original Bakelite helmet and a turnout coat emblazoned “Rookie” are among the displays. “Back then, when I was working, I was bitterly complaining all the time. As long as I was busy complaining, all I saw was the dark side: I can’t promote,” he said. “During the ugly integration fight, I was known to the chief and the white firemen as the ‘damn (black) agitator.’”

The good things The Rookie said he now appreciates what went right in his life. “In three years in the infantry, I never was even shot at, thanks to prejudice and segregation,” he said. He better understands the segregation mind-set now too, pointing to an incident in his young marriage when he became angry and frustrated while he and his wife were bowling. “I looked up and my wife’s score was ahead of mine. At that stage of my life, no woman was ever supposed to be ahead of me in an athletic contest,” he said. “I wanted to catch up and put her in her place. It wasn’t that I hated her: We were married 50 years and 22 days and had five children.” After wife Katherine died 20 years ago he remarried. “My present wife Jeanne is a retired R.N. What better than that could an old man want?” he asked with a laugh. Two years ago, he was honored by the city for his work. “I was ‘the Rookie’ all my career, and I ended up with the Fire Department’s first Lifetime Achievement Award,” he said. It was handed to him by the department’s first African-American chief, Douglas Barry, said the Rookie. “One man’s lifetime has extended from exclusion to inclusion,” Hartsfield said. “A puppy’s eyes open in seven days. It took me 50 years to finally figure out I’ve been blessed.”

WASHINGTON — The suicide rate in California’s overcrowded prisons is nearly twice the national average, and one inmate dies every eight days from inadequate medical care. These are just two indicators cited in the 15year legal battle over whether the state’s prisons are failing to provide humane medical care for 165,000 inmates. On Tuesday the problems of California’s prisons will move to a national stage, when the U.S. Supreme Court hears the state’s challenge to an extraordinary court order that would require the prison population to be reduced by one-fourth in two years. That could mean releasing or transferring more than 40,000 inmates, state lawyers say. The case is not just of interest to California. Lawyers for 18 other states, including Illinois, Pennsylvania and Virginia, joined in support of California’s appeal, saying they feared a ruling upholding the prison-release order could trigger similar moves across the nation. “Real-world experience” suggests that releasing a large number of inmates would “inevitably place innocent citizens at much greater risk,” they said. California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and other state officials call the order from a panel of three federal judges “the most sweeping intrusion into a state’s management” of its prisons ever handed down by a court. They see an activist panel — composed of two federal district judges and a federal appeals judge — “using the guise of providing health care” to order a restructuring of the state’s correctional system. They also argue that the forced release of prisoners would threaten the public safety. Defenders of the judges’ order cite Schwarzenegger’s own words in 2006 declaring that California faced an overcrowding emergency in its prisons. They also say the state is exaggerating the impact of the order. California locks up many prisoners for repeat petty crimes or for technical parole violations, even though they are not considered dangerous or violent. “California has people in prison who wouldn’t be in prison in any other state,” said former Bush administration Solicitor Gen. Paul Clement, who represents one group of state prisoners. His brief cites comments from a former Texas prison director who said he was surprised and disturbed by the overcrowding in California’s prisons. Supporters of the judges’ order also emphasize it does not require a wholesale release of inmates. For example, the prisons could free up space by relocating some inmates to county jails, private prisons or out-of-state facilities. In addition, some nonviolent inmates could be released early. “We’re sending 80,000 people to prison each year for two to three months — parole violators who are going from their home communities to sit in reception centers where there is no rehabilitation, no health care, no drug programs,” said Michael Bien, lead attorney in the case brought on behalf of prisoners deprived of mental health care. “This is the kind of thing that everyone knows doesn’t do anything for public safety,” Bien added, “These men and women come back home after a couple of months having been exposed to much more dangerous people. If they weren’t dangerous before, they are now.”

Teen finds future after train accident After losing hand and leg on the tracks, Klamath Falls girl gains new outlook on life By Ryan Pfeil (Klamath Falls) Herald and News

KLAMATH FALLS — Rose Williams didn’t cry until the train passed, until she saw her mangled hand and crushed leg. There wasn’t enough time to think about dying. She just watched as the iron wheels rolled over her, taking pieces of her with them. Her boyfriend Tyler Allen stood helpless a few yards away. “I just pretty much had to wait until the train passed over me,” Williams said. When it did, the tears fell. Williams was 16 when she decided to run away with her boyfriend. The attempt failed after she fell in the train yard and slipped under the passing train. The tragedy two years ago changed her life. Now 18, Williams’ right hand is gone, her leg replaced with a prosthetic. Despite the physical challenges, her outlook today is more positive than it was two

years ago. She is hopeful and excited about the future. “It’s amazing how something like that can totally change a person,” she said. Family problems led to Williams’ decision to run away. She wouldn’t go into detail and family members would not comment, but she said she had reached her boiling point. “I just couldn’t take it anymore,” she said. “Pretty much just had to get out of town.” She concocted a simple plan: hop a train with Allen and never look back.

A fateful slip while trying to hop a train She got a ride to the train yard after school that day. It was 5:30 p.m., April 1, 2008. Shadows crept across the tracks as the sun descended. The air temperature dropped. Then a Union Pacific train came through the yard. Williams

saw her chance. But when she tried to get on, she fell. After a futile attempt to escape, she watched the metal wheels slam into her hand. She watched pieces of her flesh fly off. “It just happened instantly,” Allen said. He called 911. Williams’ uncle was one of the responding paramedics. “He didn’t even realize it was me,” Williams said. “The face he gave was just total shock.” Paramedics loaded her into the ambulance and raced to Sky Lakes Medical Center. On the way, she recalls asking if she would live. Paramedics were straight with her: it didn’t look good. One thought occupied her mind. “I just kept thinking of my family, how much I love them,” Williams said. In the hospital, she answered round after round of questions from doctors and nurses. Her cousin arrived and held her remaining hand. Her mother arrived. Family members and friends visited.

Williams thought about her favorite two-mile running loop that she often ran in the evenings. Running had been a hobby and stress reliever for some time. “I remember thinking I’d never be able to run, that that was my last time,” she said. Williams slept. She woke up alone with a tube in her throat. She yanked it out. Her leg had been amputated at the knee. She saw it later when a doctor lifted the sheet back and put a book where her leg had been. “I didn’t really think. I just kind of laid there,” she said.

Multiple surgeries In the 25 days that followed, Williams had five more surgeries that removed more of her leg due to spreading infection. Phantom pains, perceived spasms and aches in limbs that have been removed, assaulted her. “It literally felt like someone was taking my ankle and rotating it a whole bunch of times,” Williams said. Those with two working legs — passersby in the hallway,

doctors and nurses that came to check on her progress — upset her. “It took me a while to get over,” she said. Allen couldn’t stop thinking about Williams. He couldn’t focus at school. He didn’t feel right anywhere else, he said. “He was lost,” said Jamie Butler, Allen’s aunt. He spent as much time as he could at Williams’ bedside, encouraging her and holding her hand. He told her she was beautiful. After 25 days, Williams was able to return home, a relief. She missed her family. She missed her dog. But her accident changed her, and she grieved for what she had before. So she started counseling and physical therapy, learning to walk on her prosthesis. She attended graduation at Henley High School in June to watch her friends, though she didn’t graduate. Today, Williams lives at home with her mother. She’s happy. “I can’t remember the last time I said I hate this new life,” she said.

Bend startup on fast track Lawyer-focused search software helps Manzama land investment, clients By Tim Doran The Bulletin

TECH FOCUS

With their victory at the Bend Venture Conference behind them, the founders and employees of Bend-based Manzama Inc. are focused on preparing their software for its official January launch. The company, which has created an Internetbased subscription service that provides information for the legal community gleaned from social media and other Web-based information, picked up a $200,000 investment, along with buzz and blog mentions, from the conference.

“It was kind of frenzy for a while,” said Peter Ozolin, chairman and CEO, about the attention from last month’s Bend Venture Conference. “I’m just psyched a Bend company won.” The investment pushed Manzama over its firstround financing goal, but that’s OK because the company has been moving toward launch faster than expected, said Ozolin and Mark Hinkle, cofounder and chief operating officer. Started earlier this year, Manzama grew out of discussions Ozolin had with Hinkle and others in the Bend Capitalists Club, an informal gathering of executives and others who discuss entrepreneurial ideas, Hinkle said. Manzama has grown from two people — Hinkle and Ozolin, who quickly signed up Randall Smith, chief technology officer, and Hans Hagulund, vice president of sales — to eight, and soon a ninth.

Trouble with food waste, and how to prevent it By Tara Parker-Pope New York Times News Service

How much food does your family waste? A lot, if you are typical. By most estimates, a quarter to half of all food produced in the United States goes uneaten — left in fields, spoiled in transport, thrown out at the grocery store, scraped into the garbage or forgotten until it spoils. A study in Tompkins County, N.Y., showed that 40 percent of food waste occurred in the home. Another study, by the Cornell University Food and Brand Lab, found that 93 percent of respondents acknowledged buying foods they never used. And worries about food safety prompt many of us to throw away perfectly good food. In a study at Oregon State University, consumers were shown three samples of iceberg lettuce, two of them with varying degrees of light brown on the edges and at the base. Although all three were edible, and the brown edges easily cut away, 40 percent of respondents said they would serve only the pristine lettuce. In his new book “American Wasteland: How America Throws Away Nearly Half of Its Food” (Da Capo Press), Jonathan Bloom makes the case that curbing food waste isn’t just about cleaning your plate. “The bad news is that we’re extremely wasteful,” Bloom said in an interview. “The positive side of it is that we have a real role to play here, and we can effect change. If we all reduce food waste in our homes, we’ll have a significant impact.” See Food waste / C6

Oregon DEQ study finds building smaller homes has less impact on environment, from building materials to energy demand By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin

hen it comes to building an environmentally friendly home, some people offer one simple tip: Think small. “The greenest thing you can do is build as small as you can,” said Michael Klement, an architect with Architectural Resource, a firm with offices in Ann Arbor, Mich., and Portland. “The whole size component of green is, I think, one of the things that has been woefully overlooked.” It takes fewer materials and resources to build and maintain smaller homes, he said, and for customers looking to build sustainably, going small can be the cheapest option as well. A recent study by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality echoes this. Consultants looked at 30 different ways to reduce building materials and greenhouse gases, said Jordan Palmeri, a waste-pre-

vention specialist with the DEQ, from using Energy Star building standards and special house-framing techniques to constructing a straw-bale home. But reducing the size of a house — from Oregon’s average size of about 2,260 square feet to either 1,600 or 1,150 square feet — had the biggest benefit of all the methods. “The size of your home is the most influential factor in determining its environmental impacts,” Palmeri said. Cutting a home’s size by 50 percent reduces the greenhouse gas emissions of the home by more than a third, he said. That includes the emissions generated in making building materials, transporting them, constructing the house, heating and powering it, remodeling it and, after 70 years or so, tearing it down. “When you reduce the size of a house, very simply, you’re reducing the energy demand you need,” Palmeri said.

GREEN

Studies have revealed that 40 percent of food waste occurs in the home due to refrigerator clutter. “So many people these days have these massive refrigerators, and there is this sense that we need to keep them well stocked. But there’s no way you can eat all that food before it goes bad,” said Jonathan Bloom, author of “American Wasteland.” Thinkstock

Unfaithful husband likely to cheat again Dear Abby: My 24-year-old daughter married her high school sweetheart whom she has been with for nine years. He was unfaithful to her while they were dating. They have been married a year now, and he has been unfaithful several more times during their married life. She has left him twice. The second time she filed for divorce, but he talked her into taking him back. He promises to be faithful to her now. They are so young, and I hate to see her live a life with a man who is a cheater. There are no children, and my daughter has a college education. Abby, my question is: After repeated cheating, do men ever become faithful husbands? — Sick With Worry in Montana Dear Sick With Worry: Because your son-in-law continued being unfaithful to your daughter more than once, I seriously doubt that he’s going to quit. When a man — or woman — forms a pattern of cheating, it rarely stops. I hope your daughter understands that BEFORE having children. Dear Abby: My 6-year-old daughter “Kaylee” recently spent a weekend with her grandparents. While she was there, they bought her several gifts. Today her grandmother called and asked to have one of the gifts back. A friend of hers would like to have the decorative musical instruments she gave to Kaylee. Grandma’s idea is to offer to buy something else for my daughter and “trade.” I don’t know how to handle this. I can’t imagine asking someone to return a present I had given him or her. Kaylee loves the instruments and has been playing with them every day since she received them. However, I think her grandma (my stepmother) will be upset if I don’t go along with her plan. Abby, help! — Aghast in San Francisco Hospice Home Health Hospice House Transitions

DEAR ABBY Dear Aghast: Once a gift is given, it belongs to the person who received it. Of course, your stepmother can offer your daughter the idea of a “trade.” However, if Kaylee isn’t keen on the idea, then you must tell Grandma her idea went over like a lead balloon and her friend is out of luck. Dear Abby: It will soon be that time of year when adult children will wrack their brains to find Christmas gifts for their elderly parents. Two years ago, my daughter gave me the gift of a lifetime — my pets’ lives. Knowing how much my dog and cats mean to me since I live alone, she and my son-in-law called to say that instead of giving me another knickknack for Christmas, my birthday or Mother’s Day, they would pay all my veterinary bills for the life of each pet. It was a welcome surprise and a special, thoughtful gift. Pets bring companionship and comfort to those of us who live alone on fixed incomes. Knowing they will have the proper veterinary care is, indeed, the gift of a lifetime. Even if you can’t assume all the costs of your parents’ pets, chipping in on holidays would help a lot. — Appreciative Mom in Illinois Dear Appreciative Mom: I agree, and that’s why I’m printing your letter. With so many people feeling stressed economically, your letter may provide the “purr-fect” solution to what to get for an older relative.

The case of a capable but clueless cop By Kathryn Shattuck

Actress Kyra Sedgwick stars in “The Closer,” which has been renewed for a seventh season. Some have criticized the series for being too formulaic, but New York Times critic Mike Hale praises the show’s “crisp dialogue, forward motion, (and) reasonably believable mysteries.”

New York Times News Service

For six seasons, Kyra Sedgwick has sated fans of “The Closer” with her portrayal of Brenda Leigh Johnson, the Los Angeles deputy police chief whose candy-coated exterior masks a withering intelligence. The series, which returns Dec. 6 with five new episodes, has long been a top draw for TNT and keeps getting bigger, attracting an average of 8.6 million viewers each week this season. “‘The Closer’ gets a lot of grief from critics for being too formulaic, but there’s something to be said — a lot, actually — for executing a formula better than anyone else,” Mike Hale wrote in The New York Times, citing the show’s “crisp dialogue, forward motion, reasonably believable mysteries.” Then there’s the character of Brenda, more Philip Marlowe than Miss Marple, and one of those “tough, dedicated loners who shirk help and hide their vulnerabilities under flip banter or bossiness,” Alessandra Stanley wrote in The Times. Stanley could have been describing the 45-year-old Sedgwick herself. In a recent interview, Sedgwick, whose movies have included “Loverboy” and “Born on the Fourth of July,” spoke about headstrong women, show-business families and Broadway dreams. These are excerpts from that conversation.

“The Closer” has been renewed for a seventh season. What’s the secret to its appeal? Well, I think it’s that we have great characters, great story lines, and that’s what keeps people coming back. I think we haven’t settled into a formulaic kind

of thing after all these years. You never know what’s going to happen next. And I really think viewers relate to Brenda. She’s just a struggling human being, trying to figure everything out, balancing life and death, and not doing any of it all that well.

Q: A:

What about her appealed to you? She was just totally flawed and yet extremely capable, and the dichotomy of being someone incredibly intuitive about others while completely clueless about herself appealed to me. I could relate.

In August you won the Emmy for outstanding lead actress in a drama series. How did that feel? It was amazing. It was a total shock. Who wins in year five? I’m sure they do, but I thought I would forever be nominated and never win, which would be fine. I started thinking, “Martin Sheen never won for ‘The West Wing.’” It feels really good, but does it make a difference in how I conduct my life every day? No.

We have a very collaborative group. I’m not there in the writers’ room when they are breaking stories, but I often talk to James (Duff, the show’s creator, and an executive producer). When the outlines come out, I have a lot to say, but when they’re in the process of structuring a season, I leave it to them because they all have such good ideas about where she should be headed. Brenda is so “who I am at this point” that I don’t know where she should go.

You’ve been married to Kevin Bacon since 1988 and have two grown children, but since 2005 you’ve spent half of the year in California, away from your family in New York. How has that been? It’s been challenging a lot of the time and also the most fulfilling creative experience I’ve had, except for doing Shakespeare on Broadway. (Sedgwick played Olivia in the 1998 Lincoln Center Theater production of “Twelfth Night.”) It was hardest when the kids were younger. I felt really torn. I was having a wonderful time on the show, and yet a piece of my heart was in New York. But I learned a tremendous amount about myself and what I was capable of doing on my own. The kids are both out of the house, so next year will be great for me because I won’t have to worry about what’s happening at home.

SPECIAL

What kind of input do you have in terms of Brenda’s development?

Alexandra Elagina (as Masha) and Anatolie Ustimov dance in the Moscow Ballet performance of the “Great Russian Nutcracker” in an undated photo. This version holds close to the story of the 1892 St. Petersburg original.

Some ‘Nutcracker’ productions take liberties with story By Alastair Macaulay New York Times News Service

Tradition in America has it that performances of “The Nutcracker” begin only after Thanksgiving. Not so, however, for the two productions this year with which I’ve begun a sampling of the nation’s “Nutcrackers.” They also demonstrate two quite separate versions of the ballet’s story. So here’s a warning to people seeing “The Nutcracker” for the first time: Don’t do advance homework on the tale on, say, Wikipedia, because the production you’re going to will probably have a completely different narrative. And here’s a caveat for those with a good memory for music: Don’t expect the version of Tchaikovsky’s score you hear in the theater to be the same as the complete one you can buy on CD. Most productions feature cuts, some have reorderings and a few (notably Balanchine’s) include at least one interpolation from elsewhere.

Of the first two on my “Nutcracker Marathon” tour, which will keep me busy up till and including New Year’s Eve, the Joffrey Ballet’s production is closer to the story told in the 1892 St. Petersburg original. The Nutcracker turns into a prince and travels with little Clara, who has helped him to defeat the Mouse King, through the Realm of Snow to the Realm of Sweets. There the Sugarplum Fairy presides in benign glory and rewards Clara with a suite of dances. (In the grand adagio for the Sugarplum Fairy and in her solo variation, this production even has some of the 1892 choreography by Lev Ivanov.) I saw the opening night of this year’s Joffrey revival at the Kennedy Center in Washington on the evening before Thanksgiving. It plays there through Sunday, then reopens for two weeks next month in the company’s home city, Chicago. I caught “The Great Russian Nutcracker” at — of all places — the Eisenhower Hall Theater in West Point, N.Y. (It tours America, largely in one-night or one-after-

noon stands, chiefly away from the big ballet metropolises.) This production, presented by the Moscow Ballet, belongs to the quite different line of thought that was initiated in Soviet Russia about this work. It’s about the growth of love. Once Clara — no, Masha, sorry — has helped the Nutcracker, and they’ve defeated the mice, he’s no sooner transformed into a Prince than they dance one pas de deux. And then in full adult maturity (i.e., a tutu for her and full ballet-cavalier apparel for him), they return at the climax of Act II to dance the music originally meant for the Sugarplum and her swain.

Variations There are things worth resisting in each version. The Joffrey’s (conceived and directed by Robert Joffrey not long before his death in 1988, with choreography by Gerald Arpino for the big Waltzes for Snowflakes and Flowers and by George Verdak and Scott Barnard elsewhere) involves more tinkering with Tchaikovsky’s music. Though Tchaikovsky’s Act I is the single most seamless achievement in all the ballet music of the 19th century, this one has a few slight snips and rearrangements, and minor chunks of it are then pasted into Act II. The “Great Russian” version — originally directed and choreographed in 1993 by Stanislav Vlasov, though revised since then by sundry figures — cuts nothing but the coda to the Sugarplum solo. (Tchaikovsky himself sanctioned this excision in the 1892 premiere.) But the music is taped, and the staging’s emphasis on Love, Love, Love, makes this “Nutcracker” too much like every other classical ballet you’ve ever seen. Still, each version has real merits, both general and particular. There are children in both. The “Great Russian” staging actually has more American children than Russian adults. Fifty kids (who rehearsed for months) join each performance, usually a different team at each stop. The Joffrey’s children are not only better trained but also wonderfully integrated into the whole stage world.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Nov. 29, 2010: This year, just when you decide your life is working, someone or some situation pops up from out of nowhere. The unpredictable occurs in your domestic life, while opportunities pour in left and right. Choosing your battles and honoring what is a priority could be important. Your career or community image could become very important. If you are single, steer away from someone who appears to be emotionally unavailable. Come spring, you will have a series of choices. If you are attached, the two of you will act like new lovers. You might decide to finally take that special trip. VIRGO pushes you into the limelight. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH You could be too raring to go, and, as a result, someone misreads your enthusiasm as a need or as compliance. Let others know that there are always alternatives. Understand that a friend means well but has distorted information. Tonight: Take a break. Relax. Put your feet up. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH So much could be happening — and so quickly at that — you might not want to follow through on your initial plans. Make that OK. Someone who cares a lot starts showing his or her feelings. Juggling friends, plans and different needs challenges you. Tonight: Let go of worries. Be more childlike. GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

HHH Anchor in and worry less about pressure. More than likely, community commitments will work themselves out. Allow spontaneity and intellect to merge. You feel tugged in many different directions. Tonight: Happy at home. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Keep expressing your various ideas. Others might not seem to be listening, but somehow your words sink in. A child or loved one could be extremely difficult. Try to avoid a battle, if possible. Tonight: Catch up on a pal’s news. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Sensitivity and a willingness to move through a situation can and will make all the difference. Others won’t be as supportive as you might like. They all seem to have a lot of stuff going on. Tonight: Treat yourself to a favorite meal. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Listen to your instincts with another person. This associate, friend or loved one could be offering you something you don’t want to say “no” to. Bide your time and see what develops. Above all, be gracious. Tonight: Visit with a pal over the phone. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Watch a tendency to go to extremes, whether it is spending, over-eating or taking unnecessary risks. The results could be hard to deal with in the long run. Curb a tendency to be careless or distracted. Tonight: Take some personal time. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Emphasize what is important to you. A meeting could prove to be instrumental. Approach

this matter with gentleness and sensitivity. Your awareness of what to do and your priorities might be tough to communicate. Honor your bottom lines. Tonight: Where your friends are. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Take charge of a situation rather than let it get too far out of control. Your feelings could be hurt easily, and perhaps the trigger was not directed at you. A boss could be difficult as well. Tonight: Count on it being late. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Explore your options rather than negate them, which could happen if you don’t think about your responses. Conversations are lively; someone has unexpected news. The question is whether it is gossip or fact. Tonight: Detach from the day. Later, you will gain another perspective. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Relate with others on a one-on-one level. It might mean more time, but it will be more worthwhile ultimately. A boss, parent or higher-up could push you. Anger could easily bubble up from out of nowhere. Tonight: Make time for a special friend or loved one. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH The unexpected occurs way too easily, adding an unneeded stress to your already complicated day. Reach out for someone at a distance who you care about. Another perspective will help you relax. Tonight: At a certain point, you might need to separate what you do from who you are. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Food waste

Manzama

Continued from C1 Why should we care about food waste? For starters, it’s expensive. Citing various studies, including one at the University of Arizona called the Garbage Project that tracked home food waste for three decades, Bloom estimates that as much as 25 percent of the food we bring into our homes is wasted. So a family of four that spends $175 a week on groceries squanders more than $40 worth of food each week and $2,275 a year. And from a health standpoint, allowing fresh fruits, vegetables and meats to spoil in our refrigerators increases the likelihood that we will turn to less healthful processed foods or restaurant meals. Wasted food also takes an environmental toll. Food scraps make up about 19 percent of the waste dumped in landfills, where it ends up rotting and producing methane, a greenhouse gas. A major culprit, Bloom says, is refrigerator clutter. Fresh foods and leftovers languish on crowded shelves and eventually go bad. Bloom tells the story of discovering basil, mint and a red onion hiding in the fridge of a friend who had just bought all three, forgetting he already had them. “It gets frustrating when you forget about something and discover it two weeks later,” Bloom said. “So many people these days have these massive refrigerators, and there is this sense that we need to keep them well stocked. But there’s no way you can eat all that food before it goes bad.” Then there are chilling and food-storage problems. The ideal refrigerator temperature is 37 degrees Fahrenheit, and the freezer should be zero degrees, says Mark Connelly, deputy technical director for Consumer Reports, which recently conducted extensive testing on a variety

Continued from C1 All of them work on the second floor of a duplex-turnedoffice building on Northwest Bond Street, between Colorado Avenue and Northwest Franklin Avenue. By mid-2012, the company expects to employ 13, with new workers earning $82,600 a year, on average, according to documents filed with the city of Bend. Manzama has requested money from the city’s forgivable loan fund, created to help companies expand and add jobs. Economic Development for Central Oregon has recommended the city give Manzama $13,000, which the Bend City Council is expected to consider Wednesday, along with a separate $14,000 loan for Agere Pharmaceuticals. While $13,000 may not seem like much, Hinkle said it could pay for employee computers or rent for Manzama, which, as a new company, is not making money. “We’re at a stage where every dollar counts,” he said. But Manzama’s founders expect to start making money soon. The usefulness of the company’s Listening Platform should be clear to anyone who’s ever tried to keep up with a topic, person or company on blogs, news sites, Facebook, Twitter and other social media using Web searches, Google alerts or RSS feeds. Not only can it be time consuming, but the results can generate volumes of information, even when using alerts or RSS feeds, which send the information to the user. Manzama’s software, however, finds the information, gathers it and delivers it, according to the company’s website. The software analyzes the information based on user profiles and ranks it. It can be gathered for individual lawyers, groups of lawyers or the entire firm, and the software allows them to collaborate on it. “It brings structure to the unstructured,” said Ozolin, who also called it a Google Reader on steroids, referring to the search giant’s software for delivering RSS feeds. Manzama’s program also goes beyond Google in other ways, Hinkle said. “Google doesn’t (profile) the person,” he said. “We do.” Along with increasing efficiency, Manzama’s software can help firms track legal issues, competing firms and their own online identities or brands. That can be valuable in a profession where top lawyers may charge from $500 to $1,000 an hour and that has increasingly embraced marketing.

By most estimates, a quarter to half of all food produced in the U.S. goes uneaten — left in fields, spoiled in transport, thrown out at grocery stores, scraped into the garbage, or bought and never used. As much as 25 percent of the food we bring into our homes is wasted. of refrigerators. The magazine found that most but not all newer models had good temperature control, although models with digital temperature settings typically were the best. Vegetables keep best in crisper drawers with separate humidity controls. If food seems to be spoiling quickly in your refrigerator, check to make sure you’re following the manufacturer’s care instructions. Look behind the fridge to see if coils have become caked with dust, dirt or pet hair, which can interfere with performance. “One of the pieces of advice we give is to go to a hardware store and buy a relatively inexpensive thermometer,” Connelly said. “Put it in the refrigerator to check the temperature to make sure it’s cold enough.”

Get inspired

Continued from C1 And while that might seem obvious, he said, one of the highlights from the study is that building a home to smaller specifications beat out other options the DEQ considered that homeowners might use to go green. “It’s something that everyone can do. It’s not like you need some fancy-schmancy technologies,” he said. Building an average-size home to Energy Star qualifications, for example, will reduce the greenhouse gas emissions by about 15 percent, according to the study. But shrinking that home by a quarter of the size will reduce it by a couple more percentage points, Palmeri said. He added that some technologies the DEQ study didn’t consider could increase efficiency even more than reducing home size, but the agency just considered the more common greenbuilding practices.

Designing for need People who are trying to go green when building a home should think about what they need, and then design around that, he said. In the last half-century, he added, home sizes have almost tripled, while family sizes have decreased. “We’re building bigger homes and putting less people in them,” Palmeri said.

On the Web: To see the Department of Environmental Quality’s report on building small and other methods of lowering waste and greenhouse gas emissions, visit www .deq.state.or.us/lq/sw/ wasteprevention/green building.htm. Take a class: Michael Klement’s class on building smaller will be held from 9 a.m. to noon on Friday at the Riverbend Community Room, 799 S.W. Columbia St., in Bend. The class costs $12.50, and people can register at www.earthadvantage .org/education-events/generaleducation/introductory-level100-200/creating-a-not-so-biginspired-home.

For people who aren’t thinking about building a new home, they could consider remodeling to add an accessory dwelling unit, often called a mother-in-law apartment. Or get a roommate. Both would decrease the impact of the building on a per-person basis. Klement, who will be teaching a class on small building through Earth Advantage Institute in Bend on Friday, said that the only thing people have to sacrifice by building small is square footage. The features or feeling of a bigger house can be fit into a smaller area with several tricks, he said, like taking out walls to make spaces seem bigger.

There’s an even easier way: Check the ice cream. If it feels soft, that means the temperature is at least 8 degrees Fahrenheit, and you need to lower the setting. And if you’re investing in a new model, don’t just think about space and style, but focus on the refrigerator that has the best sight lines, so you can see what you’re storing. Bottomfreezer units put fresh foods at eye level, lowering the chance that they will be forgotten and left to spoil. Bloom also suggests “making friends with your freezer,” using it to store fresh foods that would otherwise spoil before you have time to eat them. Or invest in special produce containers with top vents and bottom strainers to keep food fresh. Buy whole heads of lettuce, which stay fresher longer, or add

a paper towel to the bottom of bagged lettuce and vegetables to absorb liquids. Finally, plan out meals and create detailed shopping lists so you don’t buy more food than you can eat. And don’t be afraid of brown spots or mushy parts that can easily be cut away. “Consumers want perfect foods,” said Shirley Van Garde, the now-retired co-author of the Oregon State study. “They have real difficulty trying to tell the difference in quality changes and safety spoilage. With lettuce, take off a couple of leaves, you can do some cutting and the rest of it is still usable.” And if you do decide to throw away food, give it a second look, Bloom advises. “The common attitude is ‘when in doubt, throw it out,’” he said. “But I try to give the food the benefit of the doubt.”

“You can be in one space, but enjoying psychologically the spatial aspects of the space around you,” he said. “The house seems bigger.” Or designers can play with the skylights and windows, or change the orientation of rooms around a diagonal line, to make a small house seem expansive. “It’s using good principles in design,” he said. “The goal here is to have someone be comfortable with a smaller space and know that all you’re giving up is square footage.”

ers have to change as well. Dahlen said he would like to see the city of Bend change the way it calculates system development charges — fees for new construction designed to cover infrastructure costs like sewer lines and roads. Currently, the SDCs for a 1,300-square-foot house are about $18,000 — about the same as for a 5,000-squarefoot house. “I don’t believe that’s equitable or fair,” he said. “It encourages bigger houses because there’s more square footage to spread the cost over.” But real estate agents also need to stop selling houses based on cost per square foot, Dahlen said. It puts a value just on space, he added, noting that if people sold cars like that, everyone would buy a roomy minivan. “That’s a clumsy way to measure value,” he said.

Change in thinking The thought of saving money on both construction and utilities helps some people adjust to the idea of building small, Klement said. But it will take some changes in the public mind-set to move away from the “bigger and better” association. “We’re heading into an era where we’re being challenged to rethink that,” he said. Bend developer Scott Dahlen thinks that change in thinking is happening now. “America, in my mind, is kind of coming to its senses,” he said. He hears from people questioning why they have a room that they only go into to vacuum, or pondering the need for a sitting room off a bedroom. “Life lives better with the right-sized house, instead of a silly-sized house,” he said. But builders have to do a better job of meeting demands for smaller houses, he said, and oth-

and other services for the legal community. In a Nov. 22 post, O’Keefe reported that 122 of the top 200 law firms now have blogs, compared with 39 in 2007. During the same period, the number of blogs also has increased from 74 to 386, O’Keefe reported. Legal experts also urge lawyers to monitor the online world for what’s being said about their clients. In his Law Consulting Blog, Texas lawyer and consultant Cordell Parvin says lawyers should be listening to Twitter for information that affects their clients and sharing it with them. Manzama wants to help them. Hinkle and Ozolin created the software for the legal profession, where Ozolin has spent nearly 15 years helping law firms use technology, but they agree it could be useful in other industries. Ozolin’s experience helped Manzama win the $200,000 Bend Venture Conference investment, Bruce Juhola, managing member of the group that raises the prize, said at the time. In 1995, Ozolin founded Legal Anywhere, a company that created extranets, essentially private secure websites, for law firms and their clients to share documents. He sold the company in 2000. Ozolin, who has a joint lawMBA degree from Willamette University, also headed up technology and knowledge management for Paul Hastings, a law firm that today has 18 offices worldwide and more than 900 lawyers, according to industry publications. He also served as vice president at Thomson Reuters, working on products aimed at top law firms. Hinkle, too, has spent his career in the tech sector, most recently working for Autoweb and managing advertising and sales campaigns for Toyota, Honda, Nissan and others. He also held sales and operations positions at Oracle Software Corp. To test the software, Manzama has signed up law firms, seven as of last week and possibly up to 15. The firms provide feedback for 60 days and then become customers, according to city documents, and the testers include law firms that employ lawyers by the thousands and operate globally, including Bryan Cave LLP, DLA Piper and O’Melveny & Myers. As the official launch gets closer, Hinkle and Ozolin said they’re feeling good about their product. “Both of us feel it’s kind of our time,” Ozolin said.

Taking a crash course Falling off a bike doesn’t have to result in serious injury By James Williams The Bulletin

We’ve all done it. If you ride a bike, at some point you are bound to take a fall. How you react when the inevitable happens is as important as avoiding a crash in the first place. “There’s definitely an art to crashing,” says Ian Boswell, a 19-year-old professional road racer from Bend who recently signed a contract with the Trek-Livestrong developmental cycling team. So what do you do when you think you’re about

to go down? There are ways to prepare yourself in the few split seconds before a crash, according to Boswell. “The common thing to do is to reach out with your arms before you crash,” notes Boswell. But that is exactly how to hurt yourself, he says. A broken collarbone (because of the impact dealt to outstretched arms) is among the most common injuries in cycling. Instead of extending your arms, Boswell recommends staying loose and limber and trying to roll out of the crash. See Crash / D6

COLLEGE BASKETBALL Stanford player collapses after overtime win ANAHEIM, Calif. — Stanford guard Jeremy Green was taken to the hospital after collapsing following the Cardinal’s 81-74 victory over DePaul on Sunday. “As Jeremy was leaving the court following the game, he began to experience some dizziness and stomach pain due to exhaustion,” Stanford’s sports information department said in statement. “After receiving treatment at the arena, Jeremy was then transported to a local hospital for further treatment. Jeremy is currently in stable condition, and expected to travel back with the team later tonight.” Stanford athletic director Bob Bowlsby said he spoke to Cardinal coach Johnny Dawkins, who said Green has been fighting a stomach virus all week and had been unable to keep any food down. Green never lost consciousness, with the consensus being that he was overcome by exhaustion. — The Associated Press

Beavers lone obstacle for Ducks By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

EUGENE — Oregon has just one more hurdle before “The Natty,” as cornerback Cliff Harris calls the national championship game, and that’s the Civil War. On Saturday the top-ranked Ducks will take the 47-mile drive north to Reser Stadium to face the Oregon State Beavers in the 114th edition of the rivalry between the two Pac-10 schools. If Oregon can defeat the Beavers on hostile turf, they’ll play for the national championship on Jan. 10 in Glendale,

Ariz. The Ducks (11-0, 8-0) clinched at least a share of the Pac-10 title on Friday night when they beat Arizona 48-29 at Autzen Stadium. But there was no celebration of the feat, because Oregon has been eying the bigger prize all along. “We’re looking at The Natty now, you know,” Harris said. “I’m glad that we’re Pac-10 champions, but I don’t know how to feel yet because it’s still a one game season.” Therein lies the key for the Ducks: They still have one game left.

Crook County sophomore Makayla Lindburg blistered Banks in the state final, recording 25 kills against the Braves while leading the Cowgirls to a 25-14, 16-25, 25-18, 25-21 victory. The most impressive part of Crook County’s win? The Cowgirls did it with just one senior. Look for the girls of Prineville to be favorites to win a sixth straight state championship next year.

Pietilae-Holmner finished Sunday’s two runs in an unofficial time of 1 minute, 46.19 seconds, while Riesch took second, 0.68 back. Finland’s Tanja Poutiainen captured third. Three-time overall World Cup champion Lindsey Vonn of nearby Vail turned in two strong runs and wound up eighth, finishing 1.44 seconds behind Pietilae-Holmner. • Gruenenfelder wins World Cup super-G: Tobias Gruenenfelder raced to his first World Cup victory, beating Swiss teammate Carlo Janka by 0.07 seconds Sunday in a super-giant slalom on the Men’s Olympic course in Lake Louise, Alberta. Gruenenfelder completed the 1.49-mile course in 1 minute, 32.31 seconds. Austria’s Romed Baumann was third in 1:32.58. Bode Miller was the top American, finishing 12th in 1:13.12.

The second-ranked Swiss served almost as well in the second set, losing just five points, but four came in the fourth game that Nadal won to take a 3-1 lead. He held serve the rest of the way to even the score at one set apiece. With Nadal tired after a tough three-set win Saturday, Federer easily won the deciding set.

Golf • Karlsson wins 2-hole playoff at Dubai Championship: Sweden’s Robert Karlsson won the Dubai World Championship, beating third-round leader Ian Poulter in a twohole playoff Sunday to secure his second European Tour victory this year. Karlsson calmly rolled in a birdie putt on the second playoff hole after Poulter had been given a one-stroke penalty for dropping his ball on his marker on the green, causing it to flip over and move from its original position. Poulter spotted his error and reported it to the match referee, whose ruling left him with a long putt for par instead of a birdie. The putt came up a foot short, taking all the pressure off Karlsson.

Boxing • Marquez ready for Round 3 with Pacquiao: Juan Manuel Marquez didn’t waste any time after defending his lightweight title before setting his sights on Round 3 with Manny Pacquiao.

While fight fans wait to hear whether Floyd Mayweather Jr. will step into the ring with Pacquiao for potentially the richest fight in boxing history, Marquez says he wants to settle the score with the man who gave him two of his toughest fights. Pacquiao and Marquez fought to a draw in 2004 before Pacquiao won a close and somewhat controversial split decision in March 2008.

Since then, though, the Hoosiers have had three straight losing seasons.

Soccer • Guatemalan pro soccer player found dead: Police in Guatemala have found the body of a professional soccer player in a rural area. National Civil Police spokesman Donald Gonzalez says the remains were found Sunday with a message saying the player was killed for “messing with other women.” The spokesman says investigators are trying to determine whether that was the real reason for the slaying of Carlos Mercedes Vasquez, who played for Malacateco in Guatemala’s first-division soccer league. — From wire reports

NHL ROUNDUP

Wings top Jackets to sweep home-and-home set The Associated Press DETROIT — The Detroit Red Wings showed the Columbus Blue Jackets that they still have some work to do. Niklas Kronwall, Darren Helm, Valtteri Filppula and Danny Cleary scored to lead Detroit to a 4-2 win over Columbus on Sunday. Johan Franzen and Pavel Datsyuk each added two assists and Jimmy Howard made 27 saves for Detroit, which swept a weekend home-and-home series following a 2-1 win on Friday night in Columbus. The Red Wings and Blue Jackets entered the weekend tied atop the Western Conference. The Red Wings now lead the conference with 32 points, while the Blue Jackets and Chicago Blackhawks are tied for second with 28 each. “We had two tough games going in there and winning by a goal and then coming back here and even though we scored late, emptynetter, two tough games,” Detroit captain Nicklas Lidstrom said. “And I think they have improved as a team. They’re playing us real hard.” Derick Brassard and Antoine Vermette scored, and Steve Mason stopped 38 shots for Columbus. “They know how to win and that’s something we’re learning,” Blue Jackets forward R.J. Umberger said. Detroit took a 2-1 lead with two goals in 14 seconds in the middle of the second period. Kronwall tied it at 1 with 9:48 left in the period when he put in

Helm then beat Mason from the bottom of the right circle, after digging the puck out of the corner, for his second of the season with 9:34 remaining. “I thought (Helm) did a real good job. He put it in behind their ‘D’ and went in and got it and the ‘D’ turned it over and he buried it,” Red Wings’ coach Mike Babcock said. “That was a big swing in the game right there. I don’t know how quick it was but two goals in a very short period of time.”

That stretch ruined effective efforts by Columbus in the first and third periods. “If we skate, we can hang with those guys. If we stop and watch, like we did in the second period, we’re in trouble,” Blue Jackets defenseman Mike Commodore said. “... Kind of a litmus test of how we’re doing. You lose two games, you fail. But we’re in there.” Filppula made it 3-1 in the first minute of the third period when he put in a rebound for his sixth goal and second in two games. “They both were really close

games and they could have gone either way,” Filppula said. “Obviously happy that we came out with a win.” The Red Wings killed of a two minute, two-man disadvantage during the middle portion of the third period. “That was huge for us. If they scored a goal there, they’re still on the power play,” Lidstrom said. “We’re just trying to keep three guys low when the puck was low and bring them up when they had the puck at the blue line. We did block some good shots and Howie (Howard) came up big again with saves when we really needed him to.” In other games on Sunday: Thrashers. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Bruins . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 ATLANTA — Defenseman Dustin Byfuglien had a goal and three assists, and Ondrej Pavelec made 40 saves to help Atlanta win its fifth straight game.

Falcons claim win after last-second field goal Atlanta beats Green Bay for third straight winning season The Associated Press ATLANTA — Don’t even mention a third straight winning season to the Atlanta Falcons. Their goals are so much bigger than that. The Falcons stayed atop the NFC when Matt Bryant kicked a 47-yard field goal with 9 seconds remaining Sunday for a 20-17 victory over the Green Bay Packers, one of the teams trying to chase down Atlanta in the conference standings. Make no mistake. The Falcons (9-2) were very much aware of the possible ramifications this game might have beyond the regular season. “I have no plans of going to Lambeau Field in January,” Atlanta receiver Roddy White said. “I plan on staying right here and sleeping in my own bed in the playoffs.” The Falcons have won five in a row for their longest streak since the 1998 season, when the team reached its only Super Bowl. Also assured is a third consecutive winning record — not too shabby, considering the franchise had never even had two in a row before this run. Yet that’s just an afterthought for these guys, who have won six straight games decided by a touchdown or less after losing the opener to Pittsburgh in overtime. “It’s great to get a winning season,” coach Mike Smith said. “But the expectations and goals we talk about are a lot higher than that.” Bryant had to make his winning kick twice. The Packers called a timeout just before he knocked his first attempt right down the middle. No problem. The 35-year-old had already made two gamewinning kicks this season, and No. 3 had plenty of distance as it hooked slightly but stayed several feet inside the left upright. “Pressure is what you feel when you’re not prepared,” Bryant said. “I’ve been preparing for that since I was 6 years old. Was there a little bit of pressure? Yeah. But I was prepared.” His do-over capped a game between playoff contenders that lived up to all the hype: a bruising defensive struggle filled with huge fourth-down plays and one very important kickoff return by Eric Weems. After Aaron Rodgers threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Jordy Nelson with 56 seconds remaining to tie the game for Green Bay (7-4), Weems broke loose up the middle and was dragged down by Matt Wilhelm with a flagrant facemask tackle. The Falcons took over at the Green Bay 49, Matt Ryan completed four straight short passes and Bryant made the winning kick. The Falcons weren’t concerned after Green Bay scored, especially with Ryan at quarterback. He completed 24 of 28 for 198 yards, including a 4-yarder to Tony Gonzalez for Atlanta’s first TD. “We’ve got Matty Ice,” White said. “Ice cold. He just keeps moving the sticks.” Green Bay thought it had forced overtime when Rodgers directed a 16-play, 90-yard drive for the tying score. He improvised two huge plays on fourth down, beginning with a scrambling, backhanded flip of a pass to James Jones for an 18-yard gain on fourth-and-1 at the 21. John Abraham sacked Rodgers for a 2-yard loss and a false start on Bryan Bulaga left the Packers with another fourth down from the 10. With Falcons owner Arthur Blank waving the crowd into an uproar on the sideline, the home team rushed only two players and dropped everyone else into coverage. Rodgers had all the time he wanted, finally sliding to his left and rifling a pass to Nelson in the back corner of the end zone. He managed to get both feet down just before being shoved out of bounds by Thomas DeCoud. “You go down and score a touchdown, and you’re thinking overtime,” said Rodgers, who passed for 344 yards, led the team in rushing with 51 yards but had a huge fumble at the goal line midway through the second quarter. “Tying the

NFL ROUNDUP game was pretty special.” Weems quickly brought the crowd of more than 68,000 back to its feet. He took the kickoff 4 yards deep in the end zone, found a seam up the middle and looked as if he might break it all the way. Wilhelm stopped that by yanking at Weems’ facemask. Of course, the 15-yard personal foul penalty pushed the Falcons onto the Green Bay side of the field. “The penalties were unacceptable,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. “You can’t have them.” Rodgers tied the game at 10 with a 1-yard run in the third quarter, but all he could think about was that fumble trying to score from the same distance in the first half. On fourth-andgoal, he lowered his head in an attempt to sneak it over, but the ball popped loose in the end zone. Mike Peterson fell on it to end Green Bay’s streak of 15 quarters without a turnover, its longest since 1963.

NEWARK, N.J. — Avery Johnson was so angry after New Jersey’s performance in a loss to Philadelphia on Saturday night that the Nets coach called for an impromptu shoot-around early Sunday morning, hours before the Nets were slated to face the Portland Trail Blazers. “We knew he wasn’t too pleased right after the game, even before he said we were practicing this morning,” Nets center Brook Lopez said. “He didn’t like the effort we gave and he let us know about it. He was pretty loud this morning.” The Nets got the message. Devin Harris had 25 points, including a clutch 3-pointer with 1:11 left, and eight assists to lead New Jersey Nets to a 98-96 win over the Trail Blazers on Sunday night. “Don’t make too much of it or in the manner of how I called it,” Johnson said after the win. “They knew I was disappointed and I just needed to see their faces this morning. I couldn’t sleep anyway. I didn’t want Next up to raise my voice tonight. • Portland Trail They got enough of that Blazers at this morning.” Philadelphia The win snapped a two76ers game losing streak for the Nets (6-11), who handed • When: the Trail Blazers (8-8) their Tuesday, third straight loss. 4 p.m. The two teams traded • TV: Comcast the lead five times during SportsNet the fourth quarter, before Harris nailed the long Northwest jumper from beyond the • Radio: top of the key.

We’ve had some tough losses this year and we didn’t want another one.” Brandon Morrow scored 14 points and Brook Lopez added 13 for the Nets. “It wasn’t typical for an NBA player to get up and practice in the middle of back-to-back games,” said Humphries. “We can’t react to that. We knew we had to come back tonight and compete.” Reserve Wesley Matthews scored 25 points, Brandon Roy had 21 and LaMarcus Aldridge added 20 for the Blazers. The Nets shot 52.5 percent from the floor, 50 percent from 3-point range and 82.9 percent from the free throw line. They made 29 of 35 free throws, including all eight in the closing minute.

LOS ANGELES — If Roy Hibbert and the Indiana Pacers keep knocking off the NBA’s biggest names, it might not be too long before these youngsters are right up there with the superstars they’re beating. Hibbert had 24 points and 12 rebounds, and Kobe Bryant scored 41 points but missed two tying 3-point attempts in the final seconds of Indiana’s landmark 95-92 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday night. Danny Granger added 18 points for the Pacers, who followed up their surprising road win over Miami six days ago with an even more stunning victory in Los Angeles’ bannerfestooned home in the opener of a four-game road trip. “To come into L.A. and beat the world champions on their home court is a huge win for us,” Granger said. “It gives us a lot of motivation and confidence on this West Coast road trip.” Hibbert was blissfully unaware his Pacers had never beaten the Lakers on the road since Staples Center opened its doors in 1999, not even in three tries in the 2000 NBA finals. Indiana had lost 11 straight regular-season games to the Lakers on the road since its last win on Feb. 14, 1999, shortly before Staples Center opened. “We know this is a big win for us, but we can play with anybody,” Hibbert said. “We don’t want to get too high off this moment. In the future, we don’t want this to be a surprise.” In other games on Sunday: Spurs. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .109 Hornets. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .95 NEW ORLEANS — Manu Ginobili scored 15 of his 23 points in the second half, and San Antonio overcame a 17point third-quarter deficit to hand New Orleans its first home loss of the season. Tim Duncan scored 21 points and Richard Jefferson added 19 for the Spurs, who matched a franchise-best 7-0 start on the road, set in the 2006-07 season.

Big BCS winners: Stanford, Wisconsin and Oklahoma By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Stanford was the big winner in the latest BCS standings. The Cardinal, along with Wisconsin, all but locked up bids to the Bowl Championship Series, and Oklahoma earned a spot in the Big 12 title game by outpointing Oklahoma State and Texas A&M on Sunday. Auburn and Oregon also switched places at the top of the standings, with the Tigers slipping by the Ducks into first place — but that hardly matters. Both are still on track to play for the national championship on Jan. 10 in Glendale, Ariz. Auburn needs to beat South Carolina in the Southeastern Conference championship game on Saturday to lock up its spot and Oregon needs a victory at Oregon State in the Civil War rivalry. The only difference between one and two in the BCS is No. 1 gets to wear its home jerseys. TCU is third and in position to grab an automatic bid — possibly to the Rose Bowl — now that Boise State is no threat to swipe it from the Horned Frogs. The Broncos lost to Nevada 34-31 in overtime on Friday night. TCU is also on-deck for a spot in the national championship game if one of the top two teams trip up. But Stanford made the most important jump of all this week, taking the fourth spot after completing its season 11-1 with a 380 victory against Oregon State. BCS rules ensure the top four teams in the final standings a bid to the five big-money games. Stanford was in danger of getting left out altogether because its fans generally don’t flock to long distance bowl sites. As long as the Cardinal don’t fall when

Fall Continued from D1

Summit girls’ phenomenal season We chased the Storm girls all over Oregon at various state events this fall. In the end, Summit won 5A state titles in girls cross-country and girls soccer and placed fifth in volleyball. Storm junior Megan Fristoe claimed her second consecutive 5A individual cross-country championship, and Summit’s Gabby Crowell and Calli Prestwood were named to the 5A all-state tournament volleyball team. It was a fabulous run by Bend’s youngest high school.

Mountain View’s 11-1 football team This year’s Cougar squad was the best football team I’ve seen in my four years covering preps in Central Oregon. Tailback Austin Sears ran for more than 2,000 yards, and quarterback Jacob Hollister and his twin brother, receiver Cody

the final standings are released next week — and there’s no good reason why they would — one of the bowls will be forced to take them. The BCS standings also broke the Big Ten’s three-way tie at the top in favor of Wisconsin, which is fifth in the standings, a spot ahead of Ohio State. Unless some strange voting takes place in the Harris and coaches’ polls after Championship Saturday, the Badgers are headed to the Rose Bowl. The Buckeyes are a good bet to land an at-large bid, but the Big Ten’s other tri-champion, Michigan State, will have to settle for a second-tier game. The Spartans were eighth in the BCS standings. Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas A&M finished tied at 6-2 in the Big 12 South, but the BCS tiebreaker went the Sooners’ way. Oklahoma was ninth in the standings, Oklahoma State was 14th and Texas A&M was 18th. The Sooners beat Oklahoma State 47-41 on Saturday night to make the jump up the standings. The Sooners will play Nebraska in the conference championship game and the winner lands a Fiesta Bowl bid. Virginia Tech and Florida State will play in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship, with the winner getting an Orange Bowl bid. Connecticut is in command of the Big East race. The Huskies will clinch the league and a BCS bid by winning at South Florida on Saturday. If UConn losses, West Virginia could win the league and the BCS bid by beating Rutgers. Arkansas was seventh in the standings and the Razorbacks seem to be in good shape to receive their first BCS bid after beating LSU 31-23 on Saturday.

Hollister, connected for more than 1,300 yards and a total of 15 touchdowns this season, giving Mountain View its most balanced offense in years. Defensively, junior linebacker Joel Skotte led a unit that allowed fewer than 14 points per game during the regular season.

Travis Neuman’s mad dash at state Going into the Class 5A boys state cross-country meet, I thought Summit sophomore Travis Neuman had an outside shot at the individual title. About two miles into the 5,000meter race, I thought he would be lucky to finish in the top 15. But Neuman moved from outside the top 15 to second place over the final mile of the race in one of the more surprising turns at this year’s state cross-country meet. He didn’t win, but Neuman’s strategic race plan — and patience to stay with it — points to more good things to come from the Storm runner.

Beavers Continued from D1 And while the Beavers are having a down season, Oregon needs look no further than Boise State for a cautionary tale. The Broncos were undefeated until Friday night when they lost 34-31 in overtime to conference opponent Nevada and fell six spots to No. 9 in Sunday’s AP Top 25. The Ducks remained atop the AP rankings on Sunday, followed by Auburn and TCU. Last season the Rose Bowl was on the line for both teams when Oregon hosted Oregon State. The Ducks earned the conference title and a trip to Pasadena with a 37-33. It was Oregon’s first Rose Bowl appearance since 1995. And while the Ducks ultimately lost 26-17 to Ohio State, it decidedly whetted the team’s appetite for greater achievements.

“Our only deal left for this team is to do everything we can to prepare for that game next week and win it.” — Oregon State head coach Mike Riley on Saturday’s Civil War with Oregon “Last year, getting (to the Rose Bowl) was something that was new to us. We’ve been there, we loved it there, but our goal is something bigger,” Ducks running back Kenjon Barner said. “The Rose Bowl is a great bowl to be a part of, but our vision as a team is something greater and that’s pretty much what we’re focused on.” While the Ducks are rolling, the Beavers are reeling from a 38-0 loss to No. 5 Stanford. The Beavers, traditionally known for their late-season surges, have gone the other way this season, losing three of their last four game. Oregon State has lost three straight Pac-10

games on the road for the first time since 2003. “Our only deal left for this team is to do everything we can to prepare for that game next week and win it,” Oregon State coach Mike Riley said. Oregon State (5-6, 4-4) needs a Civil War victory to become bowl eligible. The Beavers have been to the postseason for the past four seasons. They’ve played in bowls nine of the last 11 seasons overall. “We can pack it in, or we can come out and fight,” Beavers quarterback Ryan Katz said about the final game after the deflating loss to the Cardinal.

Indeed, the Civil War has a history of unpredictability. In 2008, the Beavers were headed to the Rose Bowl with a victory in the final game when the Ducks romped to a 65-38 win in Corvallis. The year before, the Beavers visited Autzen and won 38-31 in the second overtime. In 2000, the No. 8 Beavers denied the fifth-ranked Ducks a trip to Pasadena with a 23-13 victory. Joey Harrington threw five interceptions in the game and cried in the aftermath. While the Beavers have the chance to again play the spoiler, the Ducks insist they’ll be ready. “We play for a vision, to win every game and then focus on the next one. We have a vision to be great, we haven’t crossed the line from good to great yet, but we have to cross that line next week and play great,” Oregon safety John Boyett said. “We strive to get better, we haven’t peaked yet.”

CYCLING INSIDER | GEARING UP

Crash

The Bulletin focuses on a new all-terrain bike as part of our weekly “Cycling Insider” feature, whose rotating topics include rider profiles, safety and maintenance tips, local rides and gear updates. For most cyclists, snow means garage time for their wheels. But if there is a will to ride, there is a way. A custom all-terrain mountain bike ideal for snowy trails and beach sand has hit the market, and WebCyclery in Bend has it. The Pugsley, by Surly, sports massive four-inchthick wheels and a modified frame to accommodate the almost comical dimensions of the rims, wheels and tires. This bike is meant to float over and plow through just about anything. “It’s heavy, but the fun thing about it is that the fat tires — even without suspension, even just riding around on paved or dirt trails — it just floats over stuff,” says Ed Micek, retail manager for WebCyclery. “It’s just like putting huge balloon tires on a bike.” In the past, WebCyclery has designed snow bikes for customers but found it took a pretty penny to assemble such bikes with specialty parts. This is the first time that Surly, the manufacturer of the Pugsley, has created a complete snow bicycle. “The big thing about this bike is that it’s the first production bike that’s a real speciality category — you know, a snow bike,” says Micek. “For the most part, you used to have to source from small, independent companies to find wheels and tires and frames, all the stuff to put a bike together like this. So Surly is one of the first companies to make a bike that is available to the mass market.” WebCyclery is selling the Pugsley for $1,550. “We have never been able to build one up for that price,” says Micek. “We’ve built them before, but it was always ($2,000 or more) when we are sourcing all the parts ourselves.” Unique to the Pugsley are the gigantic wheels, rims, tires and wide frame. These components are all specialized. Also, the front and rear wheels are inter-

A quick look: The Pugsley What is it?: An all-terrrain bike made by Surly Cost: $1,550 Specs: Without getting too technical, the Pugsley weighs in at about 35 pounds (heavy for even the average mountain bike). It has interchangeable front and rear wheels to allow for both 27-speeds and single-speed. The tires are four inches wide. The frame has been modified and widened to fit the big tires changeable to accommodate for either a 27-speed mountain bike or a single-speed. The rest of the bicycle’s components are standard parts. “Everything on this bike is purpose-built,” notes Micek. “Everything from the frame design to the rims, even the crank set they are using, it’s all designed to accommodate that four-inch-wide tire.” So where do you ride this bike? Almost anywhere

you want. Micek notes two locations where the Pugsley comes in handy: on mountain biking trails covered with snow in the winter and on sand dunes and other beach sand surfaces. The big, fat tires are designed for both kinds of loose and soft surfaces, as well as for conditions that would otherwise be unrideable, like thick mud, wet rocks and roots, and ice. — Katie Brauns

Road cycling • Local wins award: Bend’s Ian Boswell has been named the 2010 Domestic Road Breakthrough Rider of

the Year in the latest issue of VeloNews Magazine, www.oregoncyclingaction. com reported last week. The 19-yearold Summit High School graduate was honored as the top first-year pro cyclist in the United States for winning the Nevada City Classic bike race in June, and for posting strong performances at Central Oregon’s Cascade Cycling Classic in July and at the Tour of Utah in August. Boswell, who raced in 2010 as part of the Bissell Pro Cycling Team, claimed the Best Young Rider title at the Tour of Utah and finished third overall behind Tour de France podium finisher Levi Leipheimer and Spanish national champion Francisco Mancebo. Boswell recently signed to race with the Trek-Livestrong U23 development squad for the 2011 race season. — Bulletin staff reports

Continued from D1 Rolling, he explains, acts to displace your momentum — rather than focus it on one spot, which can cause injuries. Tim Evens, a local physical therapist and mountain bike rider, agrees. “Stay as loose as you can be,” Evens offers. “Once you pass the point of no return (at the onset of a fall), you should be looking for the easiest place to hit the deck.” A soft bush or patch of grass is obviously preferable to a rock or large tree. Evens, winner of the Bend Super-D (a mostly downhill mountain bike race) in September, regularly hurtles down bike trails and through corners at terrifying speeds. He reminds riders to protect their faces and to avoid the temptation to tense up. Evens laughs as he recalls riding mountain bikes with friends in college and how they would stiffen when things got hairy — and promptly go down as a result. Of one riding friend in particular, Evens recalls that “his gut reaction was to hold on tight as he started to get squirrelly, and as soon as he did his front wheel would wash out. He never really got all that good at it.” Until learning to stay loose and limber and developing the ability to ride out potential crashes, most cyclists should look for the easy way out when they feel a crash is inevitable. “Option ‘B,’ ” Evens notes, “might be a big pile of rocks.” As important as how you negotiate a crash is what you do directly afterward. Assess your body first — and then your bike — before you continue on, Evens recommends. Bend’s Carl Decker, a member of the Giant Bicycles professional mountain bike team, advises riders to try to avoid crashes by being keenly aware of their surroundings. Knowing your limits while riding alone is especially important, says Decker, who has earned national championships on the road as well as on dirt. But riding in a pack, whether on the road or on the trails, is different. “The key is keeping yourself positioned so that you won’t get collected by other people’s crashes,” says Decker. “Being cognizant of your group’s dynamics is important. “See somebody with scars all over their legs or mud on their shoulder? Give them some space,” Decker adds. Keep your arms and legs limber and your head up. Note who and what are around you. And when all else fails, aim for the soft landing.
