John Day to Aryans: ‘We just want you out of here’

Sherrie Dobyns, of Canyon City, joins a group of about 60 people Friday afternoon who protested the announcement by the white supremacist group Aryan Nations that it wants to move its national headquarters to the John Day area.

New focus on local mental care, but money woes lurk

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

By Thomas H. Maugh II Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — For patients with a hardening of the neck arteries that can lead to a stroke, balloon angioplasty and stenting are virtually as effective and safe as the long-used gold standard of surgical removal of the plaque, according to the largest comparison of the two procedures ever conducted.

Results from the CREST trial on more than 2,500 patients in the United States and Canada, reported Friday at the International Stroke Conference in San Antonio, suggest that either procedure is a good way to limit the risks of having a stroke and that the choice between the two could be more a matter of patient preference than scientific certainty.

Stroke was “a bit more common” in patients who underwent stenting, and heart attacks were a bit more common in those who had surgery, said lead investigator Dr. Thomas Brott of the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Fla. “Unfortunately, there is not a lot of scientifically valid information that tells us which is more important to the patient.”

U.S. Olympic snowboard competitor Chris Klug stands near a lift earlier this month at Mt. Bachelor. Klug, who was raised in Bend, is set to race in his third Olympics today in parallel giant slalom. Klug won a bronze medal in 2002, and he is hoping to reach the Olympic podium once again.

The suicide of a 51-year-old woman who jumped to her death in a Bend hospital lobby in 2008 drew attention to a system stretched thin by a growing demand for mental health services.

The Redmond woman had struggled with mental health issues since she was a teenager, and in the months before she ended her life, she met frequently with doctors, social workers and crisis counselors who diagnosed her with borderline personality disorder and tried to treat her. After her death, local health officials said they felt they’d done everything they could but acknowledged they were always looking for ways to do better to help people like her.

Two years later, those officials say they’ve made strides in identifying people in need and getting them the right kind of help. They’ve worked to expand the number of residential treatment facilities and created closer connections between public agencies and private clinics. But with the recession limiting resources for mental health care and leaving more people out of work, unable to pay for health care and perhaps struggling with mental health issues for the first time, there are still gaps in the system.

“It’s a continual process of re-evaluating, expanding, changing things we think we can do better,” said Scott Johnson, Deschutes County’s director of health and human services.

After the suicide, police and investigators from the Oregon Department of Human Services and The Joint Commission, a national organization that studies health care quality, prepared reports on the incident.

hen Chris Klug won an Olympic bronze medal in 2002 just 19 months after undergoing a lifesaving liver transplant, his inspiring story was revealed to the world in the midst of the Salt Lake City Winter Games.

This past year, his conquests over adversity have been considerably less publicized.

Last spring, Klug, a 37-year-old veteran of the World Cup alpine snowboarding circuit, was left off the U.S. Team. Then last December, just before Olympic-qualifying races were to begin, Klug suffered a broken wrist and hand in a training crash.

But Klug, who grew up in Bend and lives part time in Sisters, managed to make his third U.S. Olympic team and is gunning for another medal today in the parallel giant slalom event at the Vancouver Games.

Klug said these Olympics will likely be his last.

“It seems like 2002 was just the other day,” Klug said in an interview at Mt. Bachelor earlier this month. “But you know, I see a lot of parallels between 2002 and this year. I had some challenges and adversity to overcome.

And also it was a tough qualification process, and I made the team. It kind of gets you battle-tested and ready.”

Cell phone applications let shoppers point, click, buy

By Stephanie Rosenbloom New York Times News Service

Shoppers will soon be able to stand outside the designer Norma Kamali’s boutique in Manhattan, point a phone at merchandise in the window and buy it — even late at night when the store is closed.

Kamali is at the forefront of a transformation coming to many of the nation’s retailers. They are determined to strengthen the link

between their stores and the Web, and to use technology to make shopping easier for consumers and more lucrative for themselves.

The main way they plan to do it is by turning people’s mobile phones into information displays and ordering devices. Can’t find the flour? Grocers will offer phone applications that tell shoppers exactly where to go.

Health care bill might move soon, House Democrats say

By Shailagh Murray The Washington Post

As Democratic leaders begin to negotiate what they hope will be a health care endgame, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday that President Barack Obama’s support for key Democratic priorities had increased the likelihood that a version of the bill now stuck in the Senate could become law.

Pelosi told reporters that Obama’s 11-page blueprint for health care reform, released in advance of Thursday’s White House

HEALTH CARE REFORM summit, had provided the outlines of a final bill that could take shape over the coming weeks.

White House officials said Obama will announce next week how he wants Congress to proceed. Lawmakers would like to wrap up debate before Congress departs March 26 for the Eas-

ter recess, but some Democratic aides acknowledged that it might not be possible to do so.

Two questions will determine whether a health care bill reaches the president’s desk: whether Pelosi can persuade her caucus to support the more conservative proposal passed by the Senate, and whether Senate Democrats can execute the parliamentary maneuvering required to modify that legislation to accommodate the demands of the House.

Obama’s decision to take a

more prominent role could prove pivotal. Pelosi said the president’s blueprint, although thin on specifics, outlines solutions to sticking points between the House and Senate that have prevented the bill from advancing.

For example, House Democrats have opposed a provision that would create a tax on high-value health plans. The White House would reduce the number of middle-class families that would be affected, by raising the value of the plans that are taxed.

More than a million are left powerless as another blizzard buries the Northeast

By Chris Carola and Geoff Mulvihill The Associated Press

ALBANY, N.Y. — A slow-moving winter storm smacked the Northeast on Friday, unleashing heavy snow, rain and hurricane-force winds as it knocked out power to more than a million homes and businesses. It turned Maine beachfront streets into rivers and piled on the misery in places hit by three major blizzards in less than a month.

Every form of travel was miser-

able if not impossible. More than 1,000 flights were canceled, bus service across northern New Jersey was knocked out and roads from Ohio to West Virginia to Maine were closed. State troopers used snowmobiles to reach motorists stranded for hours on an eastern New York highway.

“We’re buried,” said Graham Foster, highway superintendent in the town of Wappinger, one of the hardest hit areas in upstate New York. “My men have been out since 7 yesterday morning

and we’re not making much headway because there are so many trees down and wires down.”

Foster, who was working on one hour of sleep Friday, said one of his big concerns was getting more diesel fuel for his constantly running plows. Many local gas pumps were inoperable because of widespread power outages.

Power failures were so severe and widespread in New Hampshire — 340,000 of the state’s roughly 800,000 customers — that even the state Emergency

Operations Center was operating on a generator. Gov. John Lynch said it could take a week for all those lights to flicker back on.

It was wind and rain rather than snow that wreaked havoc in that famously frigid state and its neighbor Maine. Parts of southern Maine were hit with more than 8 inches of rain.

Areas to the south, meanwhile, got their third heavy dumping of snow this month. Monroe, N.Y., received 31 inches, and New York City got more than 20.

A minor-league pitcher in his younger days, Richard Armbruster kept playing baseball recreationally into his 70s, until his right hip started bothering him. Last February, he went to a St. Louis hospital for what was to be a routine hip replacement.

By late March, Armbruster, then 78, was dead. After a series of post-surgical complications, the final blow was a bloodstream infection that sent him into shock and resisted treatment with antibiotics.

“Never in my wildest dreams did I think my dad would walk in for a hip replacement and be dead two months later,” said Amy Fix, one of his daughters.

Not until the day Armbruster died did a laboratory culture identify the organism that had infected him: Acinetobacter baumannii.

The germ is one of a category of bacteria that by some estimates are already killing tens of thousands of hospital patients each year. While the organisms do not receive as much attention as the one known as MRSA — for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus — some infectious-disease specialists say they could emerge as a bigger threat.

That is because there are several drugs, including some approved in the past few years, that can treat MRSA. But for a combination of

business reasons and scientific challenges, the pharmaceuticals industry is pursuing very few drugs for Acinetobacter and other organisms of its type, known as Gram-negative bacteria.

Meanwhile, the germs are evolving and becoming ever more immune to existing antibiotics.

“In many respects, it’s far worse than MRSA,” said Dr. Louis Rice, an infectious-disease specialist at the Louis Stokes Cleveland V.A. Medical Center and at Case Western Reserve University. “There are strains out there, and they are becoming more and more common, that are resistant to virtually every antibiotic we have.”

The bacteria, classified as Gram-negative because of their reaction to the so-called Gram stain test, can cause severe pneumonia and infections of the urinary tract, bloodstream and other parts of the body. Their cell structure makes them more difficult to attack with antibiotics than Gram-positive organisms like MRSA.

Iran transfers nuclear fuel; inspectors wonder why take the risk

By David E. Sanger New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — When Iran was caught last September building a secret, underground nuclear enrichment plant at a military base near the city of Qom, the country’s leaders insisted they had no other choice. With its nuclear facilities under constant threat of attack, they said, only a fool would leave them out in the open.

So imagine the surprise of international inspectors almost two weeks ago when they watched as Iran moved nearly its entire stockpile of low-enriched nuclear fuel to an above-ground plant. It was as if, one official noted, a bull’s-eye had been painted on it.

Why take such a huge risk?

That mystery is the subject of fervent debate among many who are trying to decode Iran’s intentions. The theories run from the bizarre to the mundane: Under one, Iran is actually taunting the Israelis to strike first. Under another, it is simply escalating the confrontation with the West to win further concessions in negotiations. The simplest explanation, and the one that the Obama administration subscribes to, is that Iran has run short of suitable storage containers for radioactive fuel, so it had to move everything.

A confusing issue The debate reflects the depth of confusion about the intentions of a badly divided Iranian leadership.

Since October, when Iran agreed in principle to ship much of its nuclear stockpile out of the country so that it could be converted to fuel for a medical reactor, there have been a series of unexplained actions. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has veered from hailing the deal to backing away from it. The country has declared that it will soon build 10 new enrichment plants — a number it does not have the capacity to carry out. It has declared that it has answered all the questions posed by inspectors about potential work on weapons; the inspectors say there have been no responses since mid-2008.

So while Washington and its allies are deeply immersed in assessing Iran’s technical capabilities, they are still trying to divine its political intentions. Despite considerable evidence that the United States and Israel have at least partly penetrated the Iranian program — snatching up scientists, obtaining photos of the inside of facilities and tapping into computer data from the nuclear program — they still are not certain whether Iran is seeking a nuclear bomb, or just the ability to build one, or even merely the appearance of the ability. As one senior adviser to President Barack Obama said late last year, “We’ve got a near-perfect record of being wrong about these guys for 30 years.”

Latest anti-abortion push focuses on race

By Shaila Dewan New York Times News Service

Ethics panel clears 7 in lobbying inquiry WASHINGTON — The House ethics committee cleared seven members of Congress on Friday of official charges of wrongdoing in a lobbying scandal despite a separate, independent investigation that shined a harsh spotlight on the pay-to-play culture in Washington.

In a stern report that closed out its inquiry into the charges, the Office of Congressional Ethics — created in 2008 as an independent, professionally staffed monitor of internal ethics questions — found that private contractors who received millions of dollars in defense industry earmarks from the seven lawmakers generally believed that their political contributions to the members facilitated the financing their companies received.

The ethics office found that two of the lawmakers — Peter Visclosky, D-Ind., and Todd Tiahrt, R-Kan. — may have tacitly tied requests for campaign donations to earmark requests in violation of House rules. The House ethics office recommended that Visclosky and Tiahrt be investigated by the House ethics committee, whose members are lawmakers.

But the committee declined to do so, voting instead to exonerate all seven of the members under investigation. Also cleared by the ethics committee on Friday of misconduct charges were John Murtha, D-Pa., a earmarking powerhouse who died earlier this month; Bill Young, R-Fla.; Norman Dicks, D-Wash.; Marcy Kaptur, DOhio; and James Moran, D-Va.

SeaWorld to resume orca shows today ORLANDO, Fla. — Shamu is big business at SeaWorld, which owns more killer whales than anyone else in the world and builds the orca image into its multimillion-dollar brand, and the killing of a trainer this week won’t change that.

Shamu shows will resume today, three days after a 6-ton bull orca dragged Dawn Brancheau underwater to her death at the end of a show in Orlando, SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment President Jim Atchison said Friday. But staff at the for-profit parks in Orlando, San Antonio and San Diego won’t get back in the water with the hulking ocean predators until SeaWorld and a panel of outside experts complete a top-to-bottom review of how the company handles orcas.

Radiation meeting calls for oversight WASHINGTON — A dozen witnesses, including representatives of virtually all of the leading professional groups in medical radiation, told a House subcommittee during a hearing on Friday that more needed to be done to make sure that radiation continues to help, not harm, patients.

The call for a more standardized, comprehensive method of overseeing medical radiation, both diagnostic and therapeutic, came from radiation oncologists, radiologists, therapists, researchers, medical physicists and equipment manufacturers.

Saying that recent news reports about radiation accidents had “raised huge concerns for me,” Frank Pallone Jr., the New Jersey Democrat who is the chairman of the Ways and Means subcommittee on health, said he was shocked that the people who operate radiologic devices need not be licensed in many states and that “the requirements to report errors and the penalties for making errors are basically nonexistent or not enforced.”

GOP senator blocks benefits extension WASHINGTON — Resorting to an old-fashioned, one-man filibuster, Republican Sen. Jim Bunning of Kentucky is blocking an extension of unemployment benefits and health insurance payments for hundreds of thousands of out-of-work Americans because of his concerns over the federal budget deficit.

The current programs are set to expire at midnight Sunday, Feb. 28, meaning that the Senate’s inaction could delay payments.

Democratic and Republican leaders had agreed to pass a onemonth extension through a process known as unanimous consent, meaning no formal vote was required. But Bunning’s objection means the bill can’t go forward.

— From wire reports

ATLANTA — Across America, the anti-abortion movement, long viewed as almost exclusively white and Republican, is turning its attention to African-Americans and encouraging black abortion opponents across the country to become more active.

This month, Georgia Right to Life made national news with 80

billboards around Atlanta that proclaim “Black children are an endangered species” and a Web site, www.toomanyaborted.com.

A new documentary by Mark Crutcher, a white abortion opponent in Denton, Texas, traces what it says are connections among slavery, Nazi-style eugenics, birth control and abortion, and is being regularly screened by black organizations.

Black abortion foes, who

sometimes refer to abortions as “womb lynchings,” have mounted a sustained attack on the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.

“What’s giving it momentum is blacks are finally figuring out what’s going down,” said Johnny M. Hunter, a black pastor and longtime abortion opponent in Fayetteville, N.C. “The game changes when blacks get involved. And in the

pro-life movement, a lot of the groups that have been ignored for years, they’re now getting galvanized.”

The factors fueling the focus on black women — an abortion rate far higher than that of other races and the ties between the effort to legalize and popularize birth control and eugenics — are, at heart, old news. But they have been given exaggerated new life by the Internet,

slick repackaging, high production values and money, like the more than $20,000 that Georgia Right to Life invested in the billboards.

Black women get almost 40 percent of the country’s abortions, even though blacks make up only 13 percent of the population. Nearly 40 percent of black pregnancies end in induced abortion, a rate far higher than for white or Hispanic women.

Neutrino detection could shed some light on mysteries

A former Taliban commander, Abdul Wahab, right, sits with a neighbor in the mud hut he rents in Herat, Afghanistan, as he waits for a promised job. “Nobody goes to the other side for fun,” Wahab says. “There must be a pain in your heart.”

Taliban fighters accept offers of jobs and money but have yet to see payday

By Joshua Partlow The Washington Post

HERAT, Afghanistan — As the Taliban commander in the Pusht-e-Zargon district of western Afghanistan, Abdul Wahab considered himself the law. A stolen sheep? He would choose the thief’s punishment: often a gunshot to the forearm or calf muscle.

He was careful to avoid the bone.

When salaries arrived from the Taliban leadership in Pakistan — $100 a month per man — he doled them out. Thirty fighters moved at his command. “If I asked them to jump in a river and drown, they would,” he said.

Power and respect, this is what the Taliban meant for Wa-

hab. A government job and protection from U.S. raids are what he thought he was getting when he agreed to lay down his weapons in November.

The United States, along with its NATO and Afghan allies, is trying to “reintegrate” militants like Wahab, offering them jobs on the assumption that they would rather earn a salary than spend their days fighting. The effort is a pillar of the Obama administration’s Afghan war strategy.

Taliban leaders scoff at that notion, saying their loyalists are waging a determined holy war against the infidel armies of the West and can’t be bought off.

Suicide bombers strike in heart of Kabul; 16 dead KABUL — Insurgents struck in the heart of the Afghan capital Friday with suicide attackers and a car bomb, targeting hotels used by foreigners and killing at least 16 people and wounding dozens, police said.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attacks, which Afghan President Hamid Karzai said were aimed at Indians working in Kabul.

The Taliban has long opposed India’s involvement in the country and its ties to the Northern Alliance that helped the U.S. oust the Taliban regime in 2001 and formed the backbone of Karzai’s government.

The two officers arrested late Friday — Lt. Gen. Cetin Dogan of the Turkish Land Forces and retired Gen. Engin Alan, former head of special forces, according to Turkey’s Anatolian news agency — were among the highest ranking ever to have been arrested in Turkey.

Ex-leader’s followers denounce Thai court BANGKOK — Supporters of populist former Thai leader Thaksin Shinawatra denounced a court order to seize $1.4 billion of his assets, and vowed early today to pursue

other fighters who recently left the Taliban as part of an Afghan government effort to lure them from the battlefield suggest that in many cases, U.S. policymakers may be on to something. Several ex-fighters said they joined the Taliban not out of religious zealotry but for far more mundane reasons: anger at the government in Kabul, revenge for losing a government job, pressure from family or tribe members — or simply because they were broke.

“Nobody goes to the other side for fun,” Wahab said. “There must be a pain in your heart.”

The diverse strands of the insurgency make it difficult to generalize about the motives of fight-

a nonviolent struggle for what they said would be a people’s democracy.

But analysts and editorials widely speculated that the Supreme Court’s decision not to seize all 76 billion baht ($2.3 billion) of Thaksin’s vast fortune will at least temporarily ease political conflicts that have plagued the country for the past four years.

The court ruled Friday that Thaksin abused his power to enrich himself and his family while in office and ordered that $1.4 billion of his telecommunications fortune be seized.

Colombia’s Uribe blocked from 3rd term BOGOTA — Colombia’s Constitutional Court shut the door Friday on President Alvaro Uribe’s aspirations for a third straight term, ruling unconstitu-

ers across the country. Insurgents in Herat probably differ from those elsewhere, particularly in southern Afghanistan, where Taliban leader Mohammad Omar’s original following was born. But at least in this strategically important city on Afghanistan’s western frontier, there’s evidence of a deep pragmatism when it’s time to choose sides.

“The Taliban here are not ideological,” said Delawar Shah Delawar, Herat’s deputy police chief. “These people have lost something. They feel ashamed that they have no cars, no bodyguards. How can they face people when they walk in the streets?”

ficers were among the 36 people wounded, Afghan government officials said.

The four-hour assault began at about 6:30 a.m. with a car bombing that leveled a residential hotel used by Indian doctors.

A series of explosions and gunbattles left blood and debris in the rain-slicked streets and underscored the militants’ ability to strike in the heavily defended capital even as NATO marshals its forces against them in the volatile south.

Egg-sized diamond sells for $35.3 million JOHANNESBURG — A diamond the size of a chicken egg unearthed in South Africa last year was sold for a record price to Hong Kong’s Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Co., according to Petra Diamonds Ltd., which discovered the gem at its Cullinan mine.

The 507.6-carat rough diamond, weighing more than 3.5

ounces, was sold Friday for $35.3 million, Petra said in a statement.

It says the stone is about as large as a medium-sized chicken egg.

Prices are soaring as producers cut output after the credit crunch and dealers rebuilt stocks for Christmas. Rough diamonds rose 48 percent in the first 11 months of 2009, according to WWW International Diamond Consultants.

Demand in China, which overtook Japan as the second-largest gem market, added to gains, Petra Chief Executive Officer Johan Dippenaar said on Feb. 22.

LOS ANGELES — British and Japanese scientists at the multinational T2K particlephysics project in Japan said Friday they have observed the experiment’s first neutrino to travel 185 miles underground across the island country, indicating that the project is now ready to begin doing physics.

While not on the massive scale of Europe’s new Large Hadron Collider, which also is just beginning to conduct experiments, the T2K project is expected to shed new light on the oscillations of the mysterious elementary particles known as neutrinos and, in the process, perhaps explain why there is more matter than anti-matter in the universe.

The key player in studying the neutrino is the massive Super-Kamiokande detector, buried in an old zinc mine 3,250 feet under Mount Ikena near Kamioka in the Japanese Alps. The massive cylindrical detector contains 12.5 million gallons of ultra-pure water and is lined with an acre of photomultiplier tubes, which detect light from neutrino collisions and convert it into an electrical signal.

The detector monitored neutrinos produced by cosmic rays striking the atmosphere directly above Japan and those produced in the same fashion on the opposite side of the Earth, about 8,000 miles away, detecting an average of about 5.5 neutrinos daily. Physicists found about half as many neutrinos coming from the opposite side of the Earth as from directly above. Because the detector cannot observe tau neutrinos, their finding meant that the neutrinos were oscillating, changing from muon neutrinos to tau neutrinos as they passed through the extra distance to the detector.

And if they are oscillating, that means they have to have mass. Not much, only about one-ten-millionth the mass of an electron. But there are an estimated 50 billion neutrinos in the universe for every electron, so neutrinos could account for a large part of the bulk of the universe — the so-called dark matter.

Detecting the first neutrino at Super-Kamiokande “is a big step forward,” Takashi Kobayashi, a spokesman for the project, said in a statement.

“We have been working for more than 10 years to make this happen.”

Young adults less affiliated, not less believing, study finds

By Mitchell Landsberg Los Angeles Times

Is faith losing its grip on the young?

That would be one way to read a new report by the respected Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life, which found that more than one-quarter of Americans ages 18-29 have no religious preference or affiliation, and fewer than 1 in 5 attend services regularly. That makes them easily the least religious generation among Americans alive today, perhaps the least religious ever.

Or does it?

The Pew study found that although young adults — the socalled Millennial generation born after 1981 — are shunning traditional religious denominations and services in unprecedented numbers, their faith in God and the power of prayer appears nearly as strong as that of young

people in earlier generations.

“If you think of religion primarily as a matter of whether people belong to a particular faith and attend the worship services of that faith … then Millennials are less religious than other recent generations,” said Alan Cooperman, associate director of research for the Pew Forum, a Washington-based think tank run by the nonprofit Pew Research Center. “But when it comes to measures not of belonging but of believing, they aren’t so clearly less religious.”

The report, “Religion Among the Millennials,” relied on surveys that Pew and other research organizations have done since the 1970s, and compared the Millennial generation to four previous generations. The report shows steady erosion in religious affiliation from generation to generation.

While grocery shoppers fill carts, preacher fills their souls

By William Wan The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Somewhere between the produce aisles and the bakery counter, the Rev. Anita Naves is working up a sweat. She is holding a somewhat surprised shopper’s hand, anointing his forehead with oil and crying out for the Holy Spirit to enter the man’s life and drive out all worry and doubt.

Nearby, a couple browsing the tomatoes looks on, slackjawed. A woman passing by with a bottle of ketchup whispers “Amen.” And overhead, the PA system interrupts the prayer with an equally urgent request for help: “Cleanup on Aisle 3. Curtis, you’re needed on Aisle 3.”

This is what happens when the divine meets the mundane, when speaking in tongues collides with picking up milk, when God’s love is offered alongside the express checkout. You get weird looks, Naves says, as well as jokes and outright scoffs from the more hardened souls. But if you persist, you also find people desperate for someone to talk to — people who come in to buy cereal and walk out crying tears of joy and relief.

“That’s how you know it’s from God,” Naves said. “He wants to see people’s lives changed. If that’s happening, you know you’re in the right place.”

Officially, of course, Giant Food has no position on God. Ask the District Heights, Md., supermarket how Naves ended up preaching in its community room (think cafe seating near the checkout registers), and manager Mike Balenger replies: “All I can say is, we don’t have a problem with whatever goes on in there. We’ve had birthdays, baby showers, chess clubs there. As long as it’s helping people and the community, it’s a good thing.”

In recent years, churches have had services in movie theaters, school gyms, coffee shops and bars, blurring the line between the religious and the secular. Most of the time, however, the congregations meet off-hours — on weekends when schools are closed or Sunday mornings when cineplexes are empty.

Something new Naves knew she was venturing into uncharted terrain when she began giving sermons at Giant last month.

For two years, since her ordination as a charismatic pastor by the Cathedral of Life in Temple Hills, Md., Naves had been looking for a place to start a church — maybe in an abandoned building or a dying church that she could build into a congregation of thousands. But the space never materialized. Everything was too costly or booked.

As possibilities faded, she says, she felt an urging from God toward the new Giant store. Without even scouting it out, she called and arranged a meeting with an assistant store manager. “I told him, ‘I’m just going to be upfront with you. I feel like I have to be here.

I feel like God has a purpose for me here,’” she says. “He just had this look on his face like, ‘What do I do? Am I going to be the one who puts out the fire on God? Who wants to be guilty of that?’”

A few days later, the store gave Naves a spot on the schedule: Monday nights for Bible study and two hours every Saturday for her startup church.

This is what church looks like at Giant Store 0373: At 1 p.m., Naves throws open the double doors of the community room and places a speaker on the threshold.

Technically, Naves has reserved the community room, but its doors open up to a busy spot between the store’s registers and its exit. It is in this gray area — near the community room but not always

Anita Naves, backed up by a saxophone player, shares God’s desire for people to prosper from her community room pulpit at the Giant Food store in District Heights, Md. “He wants to see people’s lives changed,” she says. LEFT: Naves prays with Joe Louis Wright near the checkout at the store. Naves is at the store for Bible study Monday nights and two hours every Saturday, sharing her message of God’s love and his desire for people to prosper, she says. inside it — that Naves operates, a short and spunky 45-year-old woman pacing back and forth with a microphone in hand.

“Is anybody here ready to be blessed by God?” she asks. Several shoppers — some bewildered, some bemused — stop and stare.

“This is a good day to let go of all the problems of the world!”

Naves continues, unfazed. “Sometimes we forget that we come

from a place called love, not worry. We rush around. We hold on to grudges. We don’t realize what’s important in our lives. You got to tell those precious people in your life you love them.”

A man passes by, pushing a cart full of grocery bags. “I love you,” Naves tells him, looking him straight in the eye.

The man pauses and responds, “I … I love you, too.”

Later, outside the store, James Hodge, 51, of Washington, tries to explain his reaction. “I’m not saying everybody should be running around telling people ‘I love you,’ but maybe it’s something we don’t get enough of,” he says. “Maybe it’s only strange because you don’t expect to hear something like that on a Saturday, at a store, picking up your food for the week. But it feels good.”

Klug Continued from A1 “Now,” he continued, “I can go to the Olympics with not much pressure, and that makes you dangerous. I’ve got nothing to lose; I can just go for it. And that’s where I was in 2002.”

In 1996, Klug was diagnosed with a rare liver disease called primary sclerosing cholangitis, the same disease that three years later would claim the life of pro football great Walter Payton.

Klug finished sixth in parallel giant slalom at the 1998 Winter Games in Nagano, Japan, where snowboarding made its Olympic debut. After his illness and the subsequent transplant operation in 2000, he was not sure if he would ever race again.

Since winning the bronze medal, Klug has embraced his role as an organ-donor awareness spokesman. He even wrote an autobiography: “To the Edge and Back.” His Chris Klug Foundation promotes lifesaving organ and tissue donation.

Earlier this week in British Columbia, Klug made a presentation at Vancouver General Hospital about the importance of organ donation and the impact it has had on his life.

He also spoke about it when he was in Central Oregon earlier this month for racing and training. Having the Olympics as a platform from which to spread his message, Klug said, was a big reason why he worked so hard to reach Vancouver.

“Maybe (transplant candidates) see my story and they think, ‘Hey, my life’s not over.

I’ve got a shot to return to an active, healthy, uncompromising lifestyle.’ That’s what was so scary for me when I was on the transplant waiting list. I was thinking, ‘Man, this is a death sentence.’ And then I realized, OK, maybe it’s not a death sentence, but you’ll never be able to compete at an elite level or push yourself athletically as hard as you’d like to. And that’s certainly not been the case with me.”

Care Continued from A1 Cascade Healthcare Community, the parent company of St. Charles, declined to release The Joint Commission report.

DHS investigators found that the hospital had failed to have a specific, written policy for the transfer of mental health patients inside its facilities. The suicide occurred while the woman was being escorted across the hospital lobby en route to a secure mental health facility when she broke free, ran up a set of stairs and jumped off a balcony.

Dr. Robin Henderson, the director of Behavioral Services at CHC, said the transfer through the lobby was contrary to the unofficial policy at the time. After the incident, the hospital drafted rules that direct staff members to escort mental health patients only through other sections of the hospital and to put all patients in a wheelchair before beginning a transfer.

Henderson said the hospital has not changed any of its procedures on restraining patients and added that CHC was praised by investigating agencies for its response to the suicide.

Growing demand Statewide, more than 96,000 people used public mental health services in the last fiscal year, including about 5,100 people in Central Oregon, according to the Oregon Department of Human Services. Those numbers were up from the previous year, when about 92,000 people were served in Oregon, including nearly 4,700 in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties.

Among the services tracked are calls to the county’s crisis line, counseling in hospitals and clinics or stays in a secure treat-

Strokes Continued from A1 Overall, “this was the lowest rate of adverse events ever reported in a stroke trial,” said Dr. Steven Schiff, medical director of Invasive Cardiovascular Services at Orange Coast Memorial Medical Center in Fountain Valley, Calif., who was not involved in the study.

“That’s very powerful.”

The results come out the same day that European researchers are reporting findings from their comparison of the two procedures in the journal Lancet. That study compared only strokes and deaths, but the complication rates

Team (AST) with three other American racers. Bend’s Rob Roy was the coach, and Ian Price, also of Bend, was assistant coach and technician.

Two top-10 World Cup finishes in January vaulted Klug onto the Olympic Team. He is joined on the U.S. parallel giant slalom snowboard squad by Colorado’s Tyler Jewell on the men’s side, and by Boston’s Michelle Gorgone as the lone woman. Neither Jewell nor Gorgone were with AST.

‘Blessing in disguise’

Chris Klug carves a turn while training earlier this month at Mt. Bachelor. Klug, who lives part time in Sisters, will compete in the Olympic parallel giant slalom snowboarding event today.

Chris Klug Event: Alpine snowboarding Scheduled to compete: Today, in parallel giant slalom at Cypress Mountain, British Columbia Local connection: A Colorado native who was born in Denver, Klug was raised in Bend and graduated from Mountain View High School, where he was a star quarterback in football.

He perfected his snowboarding turns on Mount Bachelor. Now a resident of Aspen, Colo., he is married and lives part time in Sisters.

Age: 37 Height: 6 feet, 3 inches Klug is the only transplant recipient ever to win an Olympic medal, and he is the only American to win a medal in parallel giant slalom snowboarding.

ment facility.

State budget cuts forced the county to trim its mental health service hours by 10 percent in early 2009, but Johnson said his staff’s workload has increased.

Despite the limited funding, he said the department has been able to do more with less over the past year, but he said it’s not sustainable for the long-term future.

If more money was available, Johnson said he’d like to see more facilities and more services for mental health care in communities outside of Bend. If someone lives in Sisters, for example, they might have a hard time getting to an appointment with a counselor in Bend, even if it’s been arranged and they have the ability to pay.

“At the moment, services are available if you can get to them,” he said. “We want care in all the communities where people live.

We want to continue to look at access issues in Redmond, Sisters, La Pine.”

Local clinics and private health care providers have helped spread out the burden of an increased workload by contracting with the county and providing pro bono services. A variety of initiatives organized by local and state mental health officials and schools have helped to provide care to most children with mental health issues.

But when it comes to helping adults — particularly those who don’t have their own insurance and don’t qualify for state coverage — local providers continue to struggle.

for both procedures were higher than in the U.S. trial.

“It doesn’t surprise me that we got better results with stenting in the U.S., where we have had much broader experience,” said Dr. Gary Roubin, one of the co-authors of the CREST study. “North American surgeons do the job better.”

Added Dr. Nerses Sanossian, a stroke neurologist at the University of Southern California’s Keck School of Medicine, who was not involved in either study: “CREST is a landmark study because it shows that the two approaches are equivalent. Before CREST, stenting had no role whatsoever in managing routine … stenosis patients. Now we have to re-evaluate it.”

MEN’S PARALLEL GIANT SLALOM SNOWBOARDING In parallel giant slalom, snowboarders one at a time make a timed qualifying run down the gated course. The fastest 16 in qualifying advance to head-to-head bracket competition, in which racers advance through rounds as they defeat other riders.

Medal contenders today include Austria’s Benjamin Karl and Andreas Prommegger, and Canada’s JaseyJay Anderson and Michael Lambert.

Klug is considered a long shot to medal, as he was when he won bronze in 2002.

Alpine snowboarders wear hard boots, with their feet facing more forward than in a typical snowboarding stance.

Today’s race times: Qualification at 10 a.m., 1/8 finals at 12:15 p.m., quarterfinals at 12:50 p.m., semifinals at 1:10 p.m., finals at 1:30 p.m.

ON TELEVISION Portions of the men’s parallel giant slalom event are scheduled to air this afternoon and evening on NBC.

pic team even though he believed he had met the qualifying criteria. He appealed to the United States Olympic Committee, but he lost the appeal.

He continued to race on the alpine snowboarding circuit, planning to make a bid for the 2010 Olympics, which would be staged just a few hundred miles

from his part-time Central Oregon home in Sisters. Then, last spring, Klug was notified that due to budget cuts he would not be part of the U.S. Alpine Snowboarding Team.

Determined to reach Vancouver, Klug secured his own sponsors and hired his own coaches to form America’s Snowboard

Henderson said people who fall into that category can often get emergency or inpatient care but struggle once they’re out of the hospital and need follow-up care.

When they don’t come back for help, patients’ symptoms often get worse.

“It is a glaring, stunning gap,” she said.

Henderson and Johnson said many of the people who struggle with mental health problems or addictions to drugs or alcohol suffer from other medical issues that slow their progress. Without a regular primary care doctor who is aware of a full range of issues — such as a patient who suffers a serious injury, can’t work and becomes depressed as a result — the mental health issues often are not treated properly.

“We need to meet people where they’re comfortable,” Henderson said. “And if the ER is the place where you feel safe, and it is your medical home, then we’ve failed as a system.”

der a high stress load for a long period of time whose coping strategies are not helping any more.”

Despite the higher call volume, the county has not been able to up its staffing for crisis situations.

Schroeder said his team works hard to answer all of the calls that come in but, like Johnson, acknowledged that they’ll need more help in the future.

“It’s amazing what you can do when you have to,” he said.

“These folks have been doing what they have to do for a long time, but over time, you have to start asking that question: How better else can we organize ourselves, and if that’s not adequate, how do we access more funds for more staff to manage the load.”

In the meantime, Schroeder said counselors are working closely with law enforcement officials to train police to respond to people dealing with mental health issues.

Bend Police Capt. Jim Porter said the number of calls his department has received from people worried about someone’s mental health has gone up by more than 48 percent in a year, from 166 in 2008 to 247 in 2009.

The department, like other agencies around the area, holds regular training sessions for officers and often works with counselors from Schroeder’s team when responding to calls.

Until more resources are available to add staff and expand services, officials said they’re depending on partnerships between agencies to help keep up with demand. They said they learn from situations that go well — and those that don’t.

“We’ll continue to identify what the right thing is to do and do it as much as we can,” Johnson said.

Crisis services With limited resources, officials said they first try to help people with the most severe — and potentially life-threatening — conditions.

Last year, nearly 2,000 people were assisted by a team of Deschutes County crisis counselors, including some who respond to calls around the clock.

Terry Schroeder, Deschutes County Mental Health’s community assessment team supervisor, said the team received about 200 more calls in 2009 than it did in the previous year. He credits the increase to more people becoming aware of the crisis services — and more people finding themselves in tough situations because of layoffs or financial problems.

“I think we are seeing more people in situational crisis,” he said. “People who have been un-

Strokes are the No. 3 cause of death in the United States and the leading cause of adult disability, affecting about 800,000 people each year. At least 10 percent of strokes are caused by atherosclerosis, or stenosis, in the carotid artery that feeds the brain — occurring when plaque breaks off and causes a blockage in the organ’s smaller blood vessels.

Patients who have had symptoms from the stenosis, primarily minor strokes called transient ischemic attacks, have a 25 percent risk of having a more severe stroke in the following year. Patients who have a 70 percent or greater blockage of the artery but no symptoms have a 2 percent

per year risk of severe strokes. In the absence of symptoms, carotid blockage can be determined by listening for abnormal sounds in the artery and by ultrasound.

Surgery to remove plaque, called an endarterectomy, has been around since the 1960s and is the second most common type of surgery in the United States, with about 150,000 people undergoing it each year. Carotid angioplasty and stenting, in which a mesh-like spring is inserted to prop the artery open, was introduced about 15 years ago and is now performed on about 20,000 people a year. As with coronary angioplasty, a balloon is first inflated inside the artery to crush the plaque.

Klug said he would not have qualified for the Olympics if not for AST. “What a blessing in disguise that was,” he said of the circumstances that led him to create his own snowboard team. “They (the U.S. Team) did me a real favor. It’s one of the best things that’s ever happened to me in my career. Having a great team spirit was what I needed. I needed someone in my corner, like Rob and Ian, who truly believed in me. I knew I could do it. I just needed a change of environment, and that’s what it took.”

After his wrist and hand injuries healed, Klug was able to post a fifth place and an eighth place in World Cup races, which served as Olympic qualifiers.

Now, he said, he is ready to win another medal.

“You have to tiptoe through that qualification process, but now, if you want to win a medal, the only way you’re going to win a medal is by going for it: carving clean, aggressive turns,” Klug said. “It just simplifies the whole strategy. I really like my chances. I’m riding well and I’m peaking at the right time.”

Roy, who is now serving as a U.S. Olympic team coach, said he shares Klug’s confidence.

“If he just thinks about riding fast and racing fast, everything will take care of itself,” said Roy. “I think he could be on the podium (today).”

The U.S. Olympic Alpine Snowboarding Team trained this week at Mount Washington on Vancou-

Shopping Continued from A1 Is the department store out of size 8 jeans? Retailers want to make it simple to punch a couple of buttons and have the desired size shipped home.

Some supermarkets intend to offer real-time coupons while people shop. For example, a promotion for milk may be sent to a shopper’s mobile phone the moment her cart rolls into the dairy aisle. Drugstores will offer loyalty programs on cell phones, not on plastic cards. And specialty chains will allow shoppers to breeze through the aisles compiling a wedding registry, just by pointing at merchandise.

Wait and see It remains to be seen how readily shoppers will embrace such aggressive merchandising, which will generally require them to download free applications onto their phones and consent to being tracked electronically while in a store. But many stores are betting they will go along. After all, people already wander city streets guided by maps on their mobile phones.

Why shouldn’t the same technology lead them to the toilet paper in Aisle 3?

Hoping to use the technology as a competitive advantage, some big chains are reluctant to discuss their plans. The Sam’s Club division of Wal-Mart, Crate & Barrel, Kerr Drug of North Carolina and Disney stores are among the retailers that confirmed they were testing various mobile technology or planned to do so soon.

Technology companies behind the products say retailers are sniffing around, with some planning limited introductions this year and wider deployments in 2011 or 2012.

Appropriately enough for a revered designer, Kamali is in the vanguard. A technology called ScanLife was installed at her boutique in recent weeks, and it already allows people to scan bar codes on merchandise and obtain details about the clothes through videos. The part about buying items day or night will come in another week or two.

“To say that I’m excited is putting it mildly,” Kamali said. “I’ve been in this business since the ’60s and I have to just tell you, nothing — nothing at all — has been as powerful a change in the psyche of the way we do everything as this technology.”

Other retailers have begun testing a product from IBM called Presence. Shoppers who sign up can be detected as

ver Island, where teams from Germany, Sweden and Switzerland joined the U.S. for trial races.

“We had an awesome training session,” Klug was quoted as saying in a U.S. Ski and Snowboard press release. “It was like a fullon spring break out there. We showed up and the sun came out, and it was just epic conditions.”

Klug perfected his snowboarding turns as a youngster on the slopes of Mount Bachelor with a Burton Performer board (now considered vintage) he got for Christmas in 1983.

He said he wants to finish his snowboarding career in Vancouver, close to his Northwest roots.

He is expecting about 20 family members and friends from Central Oregon and another 20 from Aspen, Colo., his current residence, to attend the races today at Cypress Mountain.

Klug said the course on Cypress is similar to the Thunderbird run at Bachelor, where top alpine snowboarders competed earlier this month.

“I think it suits me well,” Klug said of the course for today’s parallel giant slalom. “It’s pretty medium pitch at the top, and then flat with a little pitch at the bottom. I think having grown up here in Oregon and learning how to ride on Bachelor, I’ve got a good touch on the Northweststyle snow.”

Klug might not be considered a favorite to win a medal, but he is currently ranked 15th in the World Cup standings, and if he has a good day, the podium is not out of the question.

Even if he does not win more Olympic hardware today, Klug said he will be satisfied with his long and, at times, tumultuous snowboarding career.

“If I don’t get back on the podium and win another medal, I think it’ll still be a great success, but obviously that’s what I’m setting out to do,” he said. “And I don’t think it’s a pipe dream, I think it’s feasible. I really do.”

soon as they set foot in a store.

That enables Presence to offer real-time mobile coupons. And tracking shoppers’ spending habits and browsing time in various departments can help the system figure out who might be moved to suddenly buy a discounted item.

Presence can also make product recommendations. If a shopper was buying cake mix, Presence might suggest buying the store’s private-label frosting and sprinkles, too.

“We’re also able to do predictive analytics — predict what we think you might want based on what we already know about you,” said Craig W. Stevenson, an IBM executive who oversees Presence.

Cisco Systems, the supplier of networking equipment and services for the Internet, is also a leader in the field. The company’s Mobile Concierge system is capable of connecting customers’ smart phones to retailers’ wireless networks — so a shopper could type “Cheez Whiz” into a cell phone, then pinpoint its location in the store.

“We see the smart phone being used more and more in the shopping experience,” said Dick Cantwell, Cisco’s vice president for retail at Cisco’s Internet business solutions group.

Possible problems Beyond privacy worries, retailers recognize other potential pitfalls. If the phone applications freeze or give bad information, they will most likely frustrate consumers. So reliability will be a priority, a reason retailers are starting with limited tests. And as some executives said, many stores cannot yet afford such technology.

As the more daring retailers see it, the potential benefits outweigh the risks. More aggressive profiling of shoppers — along with a novel, entertaining shopping experience — could help increase sales. And the technology may help retailers save money by cutting workers, essentially substituting electronic guidance for store clerks. Motorola, for example, has stores testing kiosk systems that enable consumers to summon a clerk to a particular department or fitting room when needed.

A new Motorola product promises to eliminate loyalty cards, instead putting the program, as well as coupons, onto shoppers’ cell phones. “Probably by the end of 2010 we’ll have 10 to 20 retailers up and running,” said Frank Riso, a senior director at Motorola, adding that most of the activity will begin in 2011.

More Justice Department e-mail files on torture reported to have vanished

By Eric Lichtblau New York Times News Service

Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

More than 300 people fill the Canyon City Community Hall on Friday morning to listen to two experts speak about white supremacists.

More people were turned away because of the building’s fire code.

John Day Continued from A1 The 71-year-old’s sentiments echoed the community’s on Friday when hundreds of residents showed up to listen to a civil rights activist and attorney who helped bankrupt the supremacists group in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.

Activist Tony Stewart said he had never been to a community that so quickly galvanized against the possibility of supremacists moving to town.

“There is no place in Grant County for hate in 2010,” he told the crowd, which broke into applause.

Residents lined up to ask the experts about the best way to react when encountering a member of the group and how to ensure their children weren’t recruited or harmed by the white supremacists’ tactics. Near the end of the two-hour meeting, 58year-old Meliana Lysne, a retired bus driver, stepped to the micro-

phone and told the crowd she didn’t have a question, but wanted to share a story with them.

The Guam native told the crowd of discrimination she faced while in the military in the 1970s in the south.

“It doesn’t feel good,” she said.

She praised the people of Grant County, her home for the past 36 years.

“Look at these people,” she said. “There are not many with my color of skin. … They are standing together, not for hate, but for love.”

Minutes down the road, at the county’s sole stoplight, a crowd of about 60 people had gathered for what has been one of several protests. Grandmothers with mixed-race grandchildren joined a Catholic priest from Africa who stood across the street from a retired sawmill worker near a group of middle school students.

The crowd, many holding anti-Nazi signs, would periodically chant, “We don’t hate. We don’t fear. We just want you out of here.”

Charlie Fronapel wanted to be part of the protest on Friday, not only because he knows he could be targeted, but also because he has friends he would worry about. The 21-year-old Mount Vernon resident is Mexican-American and also developmentally delayed. The Aryan Nations see anyone with a disability as also being “not pure.” If they moved to the area, Fronapel said he might have to be careful around town.

“It means I have to watch what I do,” he said.

Paul Mullet, the self-described leader of the white supremacist group, said he initially thought his group’s values were in line with the Eastern Oregon community. That statement upset the citizens, who have made it clear they do not want the group in their town. Mullet later said the community’s resolve to keep him out has furthered his desire to move to the area. Mullet said the area is attractive for several reasons, in part because of the low property prices and the

nearness to mountains where members could practice survival tactics.

He could not comment on Friday because he was watching live streaming video of the second town-hall meeting held in the evening.

While Mullet was in John Day, he stayed at a local hotel where he flashed swastika signs in the window.

“What are you going to do about it?” Johnny Lane, 53, an African-American who works at the hotel, said Friday. “Freak out?

Hunt ’em down? Then you’re just like one of them.”

Standing next to Lane, Efrain Camacho, 21, who also works at the hotel and who is Hispanic, agreed with his friend.

“I don’t have a prejudiced bone in my body,” Camacho said.

“Me neither,” Lane said. “Not a prejudiced bone. Maybe a scared one.”

WASHINGTON — Large batches of e-mail records from the Justice Department lawyers who worked on the 2002 legal opinions justifying the Bush administration’s brutal interrogation techniques are missing, and the Justice Department told lawmakers Friday that it would try to trace the disappearance.

At a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., who leads the panel, angrily demanded to know what had happened to the e-mail files, and he noted that the destruction of government records, including official e-mail messages, was a criminal offense. He said the records gap called into question the completeness of the department’s internal reviews of the work done by the lawyers in the Bush years.

The Justice Department’s Office of Professional Responsibility, which spent more than four years investigating the handling of the legal opinions about interrogation policies after the Sept.

11 attacks, pushed to get access to a range of e-mail records and other internal documents from

the Justice Department to aid in its investigation.

But it discovered that many e-mail messages to and from John Yoo, who wrote the bulk of the legal opinions for the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel, were missing. The office disclosed the missing messages in a footnote to its final report, which was released last week.

“We were told that most of Yoo’s e-mail records had been deleted and were not recoverable,” officials from the Office of Professional Responsibility said in the footnote.

Also deleted were a month’s worth of e-mail files from the summer of 2002 for Patrick Philbin, another Justice Department lawyer who worked on the interrogation opinions. Those missing e-mail messages came during a period when two of the critical interrogation memos were being prepared.

Yoo’s lawyer, Miguel Estrada, said Yoo had left the Justice Department by the time the Office of Professional Responsibility had begun its review and “has no basis for knowing whether e-mails are gone or why.”

Attack by militants kills 11 in Philippines The Associated Press ZAMBOANGA, Philippines — Suspected al-Qaida-linked militants raided a village in the southern Philippines early today, killing 11 people in the country’s worst militant attack on civilians in nine years.

Gunmen believed to be members of the extremist Abu Sayyaf group and backed by other armed groups attacked the militia detachment in the center of the village of Tubigan on the island province of Basilan, said Lt. Steffani Cacho, spokeswom-

an for the military’s Western Mindanao Command. One government-armed militiaman was killed as well as 10 civilians.

Basilan provincial police chief Antonio Mendoza said the gunmen strafed and torched several houses before escaping.

He said 10 other villagers were wounded.

The attack came in the wake of the recent killing of an Abu Sayyaf commander and the arrest of two key members. Government forces had been told to be on alert for reprisal attacks.

Adventure reality TV comes to area

everal years ago, author Diane L. Goeres-Gardner was a retired educator combing through 1850s newspapers at the University of Oregon. In search of family history, she made an interesting discovery.

“I ran across this story about a public hanging that took place, and kind of got curious about it. As I continued researching, I ran across few more stories about (hangings),” says the 61-year-old author.

She asked a reference librarian for more information about the hangings.

“She couldn’t find anything,” she says. Likewise the Oregon professors Goeres-Gardner approached.

“They told me nothing was known about it,” she says. “I thought that was

such an amazing thing, that nobody knew anything about these executions, when they took place and why, and why they stopped.”

Her curiosity led to her first book, “Necktie Parties: The History of Legal Executions in Oregon, 1851-1905,” published in 2005. While researching it, “I came across stories about women and how they were treated by the criminal justice system,” she says.

She collected those stories as well, which led her to write her most recent volume, “Murder, Morality and Madness: Women Criminals in Early Oregon,” published last year by Caxton Press.

Goeres-Gardner will read from the book March 5-6 at Paulina Springs Books locations in Redmond and Sisters (see “If you go”). The book explores the events behind the old headlines, the mindset of the perpetrators and the conditions they faced at home and in the justice system.

Remembering the day a Navy band’s music died

By Michael E. Ruane The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The Micaleff children, all grown now, were there to place roses at the tombstone of their father, a violin player. Pat Harl and Arlene Richey came to see the grave sites of their husbands, who played horns. And Harold Wendt, the old trumpet player, was there in his wheelchair to salute his dead band mates.

It was blustery and cold at Arlington National Cemetery on Thursday afternoon, and the wind shook the branches of the giant tree that now shelters the graves of 14 lost musicians of the U.S. Navy Band.

Fifty years to the day after they, along with five fellow musicians, perished in a plane crash, their widows, children and comrades gathered with the current Navy Band to pay tribute at the spot where most of them rest: two lines of headstones, violins and clarinets, French horns and trumpets, as if still in formation. It was the first such tribute in the half-century since the crash — now largely forgotten, although it devastated the families and altered the band forever.

Teenager being offered sex ‘Rules of Engagement’ needs to have talk with Dad sets women loose on CBS Dear Abby: My girlfriend is very sweet. The problem is, she wants to have sex with me. I don’t think I am ready for that. I also don’t know how to approach my parents about this. I really need some help — fast!

— Not Ready in Pennsylvania Dear Not Ready: Your girlfriend may not be as interested in having sex with you as she may be in doing what she thinks you may expect from her. That’s why you should have a talk with her and tell her that, at this point, you don’t think you are ready.

You may find she’s relieved to hear it.

Because you find this subject too delicate to talk to both your parents about, I recommend you bring it up with one of them — your father, perhaps.

You don’t have to start the talk by announcing that you’re being pressured into sex. Instead, start out by saying there is talk around your school about the number of kids who are having sex and you’d like to talk about it. If he isn’t comfortable with discussing this with you — and I’m pretty sure that won’t be the case — then talk to a counselor at school about the fact that you need some direction.

Dear Abby: My daughter “Kayley” has been asking me to set up a playdate for her and her friend “Julie.” I have met Julie’s parents on a few occasions — the playground, school events, etc. For some reason, I feel uncomfortable around them. I thought I smelled alcohol on her father’s breath when we were at the playground, and he also said some things that seemed inappropriate.

I’ve been avoiding the play-

You don’t have to start the talk by announcing that you’re being pressured into sex.

Instead, start out by saying there is talk around your school about the number of kids who are having sex. date request because I know if we invite Julie, she will probably invite my daughter to her house to reciprocate. I don’t think I can leave Kayley at their house.

I keep making up excuses, but Kayley is persistent. I don’t want to tell her that I’m not comfortable with Julie’s parents or the prospect of having her go to their house because I’m afraid she might repeat what I say to Julie.

What should I do?

— At a Loss for Words in Maine Dear At a Loss: Stop making excuses and invite Julie to play at your home. When Julie’s mother offers to reciprocate, tell her — sweetly — that you prefer playdates be at your home. Period. Do not be defensive about it, just firm.

P.S.: You may be worried over nothing because Julie’s mother may not make that offer you’re dreading.

Dear Abby: My husband, “Ben,” is a loving, caring, bighearted and sincere man, but I have a problem with the way he presents himself in public. His clothing is frequently stained, wrinkled and ill-fitting, and he doesn’t seem to care. He even wears clothing with holes and rips. Some of his clothes look like they haven’t seen a washing machine in weeks because they’re so stained.

I have bought Ben new clothes, but most of the time he puts them away and wears his old, beat-up and grubby things. He gets upset and defensive when I bring it up.

Other people have commented about the way he looks and, frankly, sometimes I’m embarrassed to be seen with him.

He’s a great guy and I don’t want to hurt his feelings, but this really bothers me. I don’t want him to look like a fashion plate, but neat and clean would be good. Any ideas on how to deal with this?

— Disappointed With Disheveled Dear Disappointed: I do have one. Rather than buying your husband any more clothes he doesn’t wear, take him shopping and have him select some items in which he would feel comfortable.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

LOS ANGELES — Now that CBS’ “Rules of Engagement” is in its fourth season, there are certain rules the writers must follow.

One is that the characters’ relationships stay the same.

In other words, the marrieds stay married, the engaged couple stays engaged and David Spade’s character Russell stays annoying. But there is no rule that men always look dumb and the women wise.

So this season, which kicks off Monday, viewers will finally see what is wrong with the women on this show.

“I love how the writers have embraced the fact that Audrey can’t really be a good girl or she wouldn’t be married to Jeff (Patrick Warburton),” says actress Megyn Price, 38, during a recent set visit. “She’s got to have an underlying streak of evil to make them fit with each other. They let Audrey behave very badly this season.”

In the season opener, we see her jealous side when one of Jeff’s female colleagues shamelessly flirts with him.

But don’t worry. Audrey is just as likeable when she’s naughty.

“It’s a very fine line when someone is misbehaving if it isn’t written delicately and if it’s not played the right way,” says Price, who co-starred on “Grounded for Life,” a defunct Fox sitcom. “It could’ve been a flaming disaster, but it totally works.”

Bianca Kajlich says she

Coleman has seizure on ‘The Insider’ set LOS ANGELES — Gary Coleman suffered a seizure on the set of “The Insider” Friday and received immediate treatment from Dr. Drew Pinsky, who happened to be on set as well.

“The Insider” says on its Web site that Coleman was transported to a local hospital in stable condition.

A publicist Gary Coleman for “The Insider” declined to say what the former child star was doing on the entertainment program and referred inquiries to the show’s Web site.

Coleman walked off “The Insider” during a visit to the show earlier this month. He was being interviewed about his arrest in Utah last year on domestic violence charges when he blew up, telling the attorney questioning him to “drown herself in the ocean” before he stormed off the set.

Coleman was briefly hospitalized last month after suffering a seizure. He has had two failed kidney transplants and been plagued by various health problems.

The 42-year-old actor is best known for his stint on TV’s “Diff’rent Strokes,” which aired from 1978 to 1986. Pinsky is a medical doctor and addiction specialist who stars on VH1’s “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.”

Alec Baldwin warms up before Oscar gig in NYC NEW YORK — As a kind of warm-up to his upcoming spot as Academy Awards co-host, Alec Baldwin appeared at the Time Warner Center for a personal and wide-ranging conversation.

But he did have one Oscar forecast: Expect wardrobe changes for himself and co-host Steve Martin.

“It’s a very metrosexualized kind of a show now,” Baldwin joked.

The Wednesday evening event, presented by Fordham Law School, came shortly before the

anticipated March 7 ceremony.

Though sold out and crammed, the audience was a mere 500, far less than the 1 billion who supposedly watch the Oscars worldwide.

Baldwin, 51, spoke passionately and at length about numerous issues, including nuclear power and family law.

Though he’s under orders not to discuss his preferences for the various awards, he said he’s been beset by questions: “Everywhere I go, people say, ‘So who do you like in the Oscars?’”

Radcliffe speaks for gay suicide prevention NEW YORK — Daniel Radcliffe is explaining why he has just filmed a public service announcement for The Trevor Project, the leading organization focusing on suicide prevention efforts among gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered youth.

Because his parents were both actors, “I grew up knowing a lot of gay men and it was never something that I even thought twice about — that some men were gay and some weren’t,” the “Harry Potter” star said Daniel Friday.

“And Radcliffe then I went to school and (for) the first time … I came across homophobia. … I had never encountered it before. It shocked me. …

“Now I am in the very fortunate position where I can actually help or do something about it.”

The result is a PSA that was filmed Friday at the organization’s Wall Street offices. The announcement is scheduled to air sometime this spring.

Radcliffe first became aware of The Trevor Project, founded in 1998 by three filmmakers, while he was appearing on Broadway in the 2008 revival of “Equus.” Their movie, “Trevor,” which won an Academy Award for Best Short Film, concerned a gay teen who attempts suicide. The Trevor Project allows young people to call in for counseling or just to talk.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, Feb. 27, 2010: Enjoy a new beginning this year. A new luck cycle promises exciting and dynamic change. At times, you could be overwhelmed by everything that is occurring.

Breathe deeply. Take a walk. Stay centered, and you will be in a better position to accept opportunities.

If you are single, you will meet several potential suitors. Date.

Decide what you want. Then decide who is Mr. or Ms. Right. If you are attached, let your significant other know how important he or she is in your life. VIRGO tests your limits.

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) HHHH Spruce up your sense of humor. Confusion marks decisions, discussions and meetings. Know that a friend has really good intentions, though plans could fall flat. Tap into your imagination, and you could be much happier with what you cook up. Tonight: Where the action is.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Rather than run around in circles, eliminate everything that doesn’t have to be done immediately. Others might find your method confusing, as it is so different from the norm.

Let them adjust. Tonight: Use your imagination, and everyone will have a good time.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH A last-minute change involving a key person or

situation in your life might upset your plans. Still, use this event as an opportunity to do what you would really like to do. If you are up for a day trip, why not? Tonight: Make it early.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Your possessive side could cause a hassle at the last minute. Someone might feel as if you are trying to control him or her. Confusion happens out of the blue, especially with plans and a key person. Tonight: Hang out — favorite people, favorite spot.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Your high energy can be a great source of fun. Use your spicy imagination, and make immediate plans. Do be sensitive to someone who wants to join you. Try to flow with his or her restrictions. Tonight: Your treat.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Many people have very different opinions, as you will see.

If you ask questions, you will get opinions. Why not go off and do something you love to do, even by yourself? When you return, you will find others a little easier to deal with. Tonight: Make an appearance.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Use the daylight hours to the max. Meet up with friends and go off. What you do is not as important as the process.

Who do you want to be with?

Do you enjoy yourself with this person? Recharge with a favorite person. Tonight: Vanish early.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Stop in and visit with an older relative or friend. You’ll

have a great time once you make time to do what you want to do. Juggling different concerns takes talent. Join your friends at a celebration or happening.

Tonight: Where the party is.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Follow your natural instincts to take off and do something very special with your day. Leaving your everyday setting helps recharge your batteries and creates a fresh outlook. Note the feelings you get when you’re not in your daily environment.

Tonight: Back in the limelight.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Consider showing interest in a pastime that a dear friend or loved one likes. Presently, you could discover how important a mutual pastime would be for the relationship. Your focus might switch from issues to relating.

Tonight: Follow the music.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Your sense of fun and your ability to see life differently could challenge those close to you who might be more conventional.

Sometimes they might not even grasp some of your thoughts.

Tonight: Visit over dinner. Go with someone else’s choice.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Others might become irritating, as they cannot seem to understand why they can’t be with you. Eliminate to-do lists, errands and projects quickly. Don’t count on always being surrounded by so many people who want you now!

Tonight: Enjoy those around you. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

Olympic fashion: The good, bad and ugly

By Suzanne S. Brown The Denver Post

While some viewers of the Winter Olympics are fixated on medal counts or the hundredths of seconds separating winners and losers of the luge or giant slalom, there’s also a style competition under way.

From the sleek speedskating and downhill racing suits to overthe-top ice dancing costumes, it’s a race to the fashion podium for athletes from dozens of countries.

The United States has scored well overall in Vancouver. The opening statement was made when the American athletes wore Ralph Lauren’s classic parkas and fleece pants at the opening ceremony.

(Good luck trying to find one of the reindeer knit hats or the boys hat with Olympic rings that Lindsey Vonn has sported in numerous photos. For now, they’re sold out on the company’s Web site.)

High marks also go to design leader Burton for the U.S. snowboarding outfits: competitors like Shaun White were king of the hill wearing the company’s old school plaid jackets and Gore-Tex pants that looked like distressed denim.

And the serene blue of the U.S. speedskating uniforms belied the intensity of such competitors

The Associated Press photos

Lindsey Vonn shows off her gold medal for women’s downhill skiing. “Statement” necklaces are all the rage right now in the fashion industry, but these pancake-like pieces of metal don’t impress. as Apolo Anton Ohno and Shani Davis.

We’d take points off the U.S. style score for the star-patterned Under Armour suits that had a cartoonish quality, worn by the freestyle skiers and others; and the faded denim-hued Nike podium jackets that might have looked great live but were dull on TV. In contrast, it was hard to tear your eyes away from the bold Bogner jackets and vests worn by the German skiers. In their pink, white, black and yellow, the women looked like Neapolitan candies.

The men wore a similar look, but with blue vests. (The German athletes doubly scored, considering

the vests sell for $900 and the jackets $1,200 on Bogner’s Web site.)

Other standout fashions at the winter games have included the red Russian hockey jerseys emblazoned with a coat of arms and Cyrillic lettering, the slick gold and black uniforms worn by the Japanese speed skaters, the candy cane-striped suits worn by the Swiss skiers and the graphic black and white suits worn by Bulgaria’s downhillers.

The Canadian freestylers also sported a sweet freestyle suit on the slopes — in a deep red print.

Speaking of red and Canada, the universal favorite accessory of the games has to be the Hudson’s Bay

Co.’s red mittens with a maple leaf and Olympic rings. (While HBC was selling them for $10 in Vancouver, sites like eBay and Amazon listed the mitts at $39.99 earlier in the week.)

An entire story — or perhaps a cautionary tale — could be written on the topic of ice skating fashion. Yes, we know the costumes are supposed to help complete the artistic and athletic statement, but with all the rhinestones and trailing ribbons in the figure skating and pairs ice dancing outfits, it’s hard to concentrate on the triple toe loops and twizzles. The Russians have been particularly egregious aesthetic offenders this round of Olympics, but we admit to getting a special thrill every time Johnny Weir glides onto the ice bedecked in beads and feathers. And props go to Vera Wang, who designed the cool snake motif outfit worn by Evan Lysacek.

Finally, how about the artistic value of the medals? With bold “statement” necklaces all the rage right now in the fashion industry, you can’t make a much stronger one than by wearing a wavy palmsized pancake of metal.

Fashion’s military invasion rolls on

By Ruth La Ferla New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — As he mulled the themes that would color his fall line, Marcus Wainwright of Rag & Bone had a minor epiphany. “You can’t really improve on a field jacket,” he said. “It is a silhouette that’s going to be cool forever.”

In the collection he showed Feb. 12, Wainwright released a mini-parade of military greatcoats, camouflage anoraks and, of course, variations on the field jacket with its multiple pockets and gusseted cuffs.

He was joined during New York Fashion Week, which concluded Thursday, by designers as disparate as Gwen Stefani, Richard Chai, Wayne Lee and Phillip Lim, who injected collections with regulation olive drab and military trim. Field coats, parkas and anoraks didn’t exactly blanket the

Field coats, parkas and anoraks didn’t exactly blanket the runways for fall, a season most notable for pile-it-on layering, the lavish use of fur and, at the opposite extreme, pared-down sportswear. runways for fall, a season most notable for pile-it-on layering. But it didn’t have to. Military influences were already widespread before the latest shows. For much of the last year, interpretations of battle gear have infiltrated the style world, tracing a jagged trajectory up from the campus and the concert stadium and onto the rarefied runways of Balmain, Marc Jacobs, Celine and Burberry, then back again into mainstream shops like DKNY and Gap, where stylized

versions of the field jacket — this season’s answer to the biker coat — are in plentiful supply for spring.

Given its ubiquity, the return of militaria to the catwalks of New York strikes some as a weary afterthought, lending weight to the argument that fashion shows, once perceived as launching pads for the New Next Thing, have become a mere footnote to the way trends evolve.

“Fashion today is an unstructured landscape in which ideas and trends exist concurrently,” said Simon Doonan, the creative director for Barneys New York. The notion, he added, of deconstructing and interpreting the runways for directions is stale, if not archaic. “It just doesn’t work anymore.”

Still, myths die hard, and in the popular view, trends spring full blown from designers’ imaginations. The couturier’s stature as cultural oracle was probably cemented when Christian Dior unveiled his New Look in the late 1940s. For decades, the progression of trends seemed predictable, if not inevitable: spawned in the European couture, they migrated into high-priced ready-to-wear collections and were finally adapted in watered-down versions for mass consumption.

More recently, many trends have started at street level, then trickled up to influence the runways.

But today, in place of a linear progression in either direction, there is a continuous cycle of eddying currents. “The whole trickle-up, trickle-down system no longer applies,” said David Wolfe, the creative director for the Doneger Group, a New York trend-forecasting company. The truth of that assertion first struck Wolfe when John Galliano introduced camouflage to his runways nearly a decade ago. “At that very moment camouflage had already reached its saturation point in the street,” Wolfe recalled. “My thought was, ‘This will mean nothing, because it’s out there already.’”

Much to his astonishment, however, that collection, “started a virtual tsunami of camouflage through the market again.”

Increasingly, high-end designers “are forced to keep pace with a Zara or an H&M,” said Lisa Koenigsberg, president of Initiatives in Art and Culture, which organizes fashion and arts conferenc-

es. How could they not, Koenigsberg asked. “They are tapping the same image bank.”

A year ago, when Anthony Keegan began thinking of his fall 2010 collection for Commonwealth Utilities, a men’s wear label, “the concept of military uniforms was already ingrained in people’s minds,” he said. That was hardly surprising after nearly a decade of Americans’ fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the many movies those wars have inspired. The spark for the collection Keegan showed on Feb. 14, titled “An Officer and a Gentleman,” was the flurry of enlisted men who alighted in Manhattan during Fleet Week last May, he said. The sight of sailors mingling on Wall Street with bankers in Kiton and Brioni suits was “romantic and heroic” to Keegan.

Elie Tahari tried to feminize his style parade of utility jackets, adding flourishes like sashes and capelets, as well as epaulets and pockets reminiscent of the Israeli Army

High marks go to design leader Burton for the U.S. snowboarding outfits: competitors like Shaun White, above, were king of the hill wearing the company’s old-school plaid jackets.

uniform he wore in the late ’60s.

The fixation with uniforms in popular fashion has a long history, tracing its contemporary lineage at least to the ’60s, and serving for much of the subsequent decade as an emblem of antiwar protest.

“When I was a teenaged punk rock kid in the 1970s, we were into military fashion because it was ironic,” said Rick Klotz, the founder of Warriors of Radness, a uniforminfluenced California label.

“We were dressing like military skinheads because we were fiercely antiwar.”

These days, field coats, anoraks and parkas tend to be worn without irony, mostly stripped of any political meaning, but embraced nonetheless by those inclined to heroic posturing.

“When I wear a field jacket I feel like James Bond,” said Richard Geist, the owner of Uncle Sam’s, an army-navy outfitter in downtown Manhattan. “It says you’re independent. It’s like you’re buying character.”

His shop is routinely raided by professional stylists and designers, some who buy fields jackets and trench coats to reinterpret for their lines. Recently a posse of ed-

itors from French Vogue snatched up clothing and accessories at Uncle Sam’s for a coming fashion editorial.

Other glossies have already signed on. The indie fashion magazine Nylon highlights vests, jackets and even dresses in a feature this month called “An Army of Many.” The March issue of British Vogue includes “Boot Camp,” a 12page editorial replete with hooded parkas, capes and the trusty field jacket. And Harper’s Bazaar for March devotes 14 pages to flight suits and feminized field coats.

Editors and retailers recognize such pieces have proven track records. “The uniform look is a functional concept that people understand,” said LeAnn Nealz, the chief design officer for American Eagle Outfitters, which will offer soldierly styles for fall.

Tahari was blunter still. “It’s absolutely going to sell,” he said.

Jeremy Renner and Anthony Mackie star in “The Hurt Locker.” The Defense Department pulled its production assistance for “The Hurt Locker,” now a favorite to win an Oscar for Best Picture, at the last minute.

‘Hurt Locker,’ an Oscar favorite, sets off conflict within military

By Julian E. Barnes, Ned Parker and John Horn Los Angeles Times

WASHINGTON — Many film critics — and awards voters — have praised “The Hurt Locker’s” depiction of the U.S. military in Iraq, often singling out the bomb disposal drama for its authenticity. But as the film emerges as a favorite to win the Best Picture Oscar, a number of active soldiers and veterans are attacking the movie for the very things the film’s supporters admire, saying “The Hurt Locker” portrays soldiers as renegades and that it fails to represent details about combat accurately.

The criticism, coming just before Oscar ballots are due Tuesday, highlights the delicate relationship between “The Hurt Locker” and the nation’s armed forces. Defense Secretary Robert Gates says the film is “authentic” and “very compelling” and has recommended it to his staff. But the government says it pulled its “Hurt Locker” production assistance at the last minute in 2007, saying that the film’s makers were shooting scenes that weren’t in the screenplay submitted to the Defense Department, including a sequence that the government believed showed troops unflatteringly. The film’s producers dispute elements of the account.

While “The Hurt Locker” has numerous supporters within the military — including Purple Heart winner Drew Sloan, who participated in a “Hurt Locker” panel discussion in Hollywood with other veterans and the film’s makers Wednesday night — the movie’s detractors share a consistent complaint about its representation of the Army’s Explosive Ordnance Disposal team as they attempt to disarm improvised explosive devices.

The movie The film, directed by Kathryn Bigelow and written by journalist Mark Boal (who embedded with a bomb disposal team), stars Jeremy Renner as Staff Sgt. William James. Not deterred by protocol or his own safety, James is an adrenaline-addicted bomb defuser who occasionally puts his unit at risk, and at one point takes to the streets of Baghdad on a solo personal mission. Members of EOD teams in southern Iraq said in interviews arranged by the Army that “The Hurt Locker” is a good action movie if you know nothing about defusing roadside bombs or the military.

Sgt. Eric Gordon, of San Pedro, Calif., an Air Force EOD technician on his second tour in Iraq, has watched the movie a few times with his friends. “I would watch it with other EOD people, and we would laugh,” Gordon said.

He scoffed at a scene in which a bomb is defused with wire cutters. “It’s similar to having a firefighter go into a building with a squirt bottle,” Gordon said.

An EOD team leader in Maysan province, Staff Sgt. Jeremy D. Phillips said, “My interest is bringing myself and my team members home alive, with all

The Associated Press

Kathryn Bigelow has been nominated for Best Director for “The Hurt Locker” — a “spectacular-looking movie,” says Lt. Col. Todd Breasseale, the would-be Army technical adviser for the film, “but if you’re looking for realism and how military relationships really work, I believe (Bigelow) missed the mark.” of our appendages in the right place,” Phillips said.

While he was glad the film highlighted their trade, he disliked the celluloid treatment of EOD units. “There is too much John Wayne and cowboy stuff.

It is very loosely based on actual events,” he said. “I’m honestly glad they are trying to convey to the public what we’ve been doing, and I wish maybe they had just done it with a little bit of a different spin on it,” he said.

Others are more supportive.

Sloan, a former U.S. Army captain, said at the panel discussion that “The Hurt Locker” offered a perfect snapshot of modern conflict. “This is what’s going on for the men and women who are fighting this war,” he said.

Jim O’Neil, the executive director of the EOD Memorial, which honors those who perish defusing bombs, was equally enthusiastic about the film’s accuracy.

“It’s not just a movie,” he said at the panel discussion. “It’s something that’s actually occurring as we’re sitting in these chairs.”

Military involvement Some recent veterans, however, did not share the sentiment.

“The depiction of our community in this film is disrespectful,” said Paul Rieckhoff, the executive director and founder of the 150,000-member Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.

“We are not cowboys. We are not reckless. We are professionals.

And a lot of the film would make you think the opposite.”

“I didn’t really care for it,” said Brian Siefkes, who served in Iraq and plays an Army soldier in the upcoming movie “The Green Zone.” “There were many moments where I felt they were trying to portray the actual life of EOD in Iraq but over-sensationalized it,” he said.

Boal, who also produced “The Hurt Locker,” said the film was not intended to be a documentary or a training film. “We certainly made creative choices for dramatic effect,” he said. “But I hope the choices were made re-

spectfully and conscientiously.”

At one point, “The Hurt Locker” might have been made with government cooperation. But just 12 hours before Lt. Col. Todd Breasseale was to fly to Jordan to serve as the Army’s technical adviser to “The Hurt Locker,” he said in an interview that he heard there might be problems.

A Jordanian official told him that scenes were being shot that were not in the script that the Army had agreed to with Bigelow. Breasseale accused the producer of shooting a scene in which soldiers act violently toward detainees. (The military does not provide help to films depicting violations of the laws of war, unless the script shows their consequences.) He also charged that the production had driven a Humvee into a Palestinian refugee camp in order to film angry crowd scenes.

“Nice working with you,” Breasseale said he recalled telling a producer before the military decided to stop working with the production. “Kathryn has a lot of talent, but I cannot trust that your company will honor its contract to the soldiers and government of the U.S.” Breasseale said the filmmakers had been solicitous of the Army’s opinion “trying to get the look and feel right” and they had been allowed to film at an Army logistics base in Kuwait.

Breasseale, who is now deployed, saw “The Hurt Locker” on a laptop in Afghanistan along with a soldier from one of the Army’s EOD teams. He conceded it was a great story and a “spectacular-looking movie. But if you’re looking for realism and how military relationships really work, I believe she missed the mark,” Breasseale said of Bigelow.

Others in the Pentagon’s office overseeing work with Hollywood agree. “The filmmakers’ interest in drama and excitement exceeded what we felt were reasonable realistic portrayals,” said Philip Strub, the Pentagon’s special assistant for entertainment media.

Boal said that while the production initially worked with the U.S. military, it parted ways when it became clear they would not approve “The Hurt Locker” script. He said they did not film on a base in Kuwait and never signed a contract.

“The Department of Defense did not support the movie. And my understanding is that they did not support ‘Platoon’ or ‘The Deer Hunter,’ Boal said of two of the most revered movies about the Vietnam War. “I am OK with that outcome because I didn’t want to change the script to suit them.”

The top Pentagon official, Gates, has a very positive view of the movie. “This is the first Iraq war movie that he has liked, or for that matter seen,” said Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell. “In looking at all previous films he thought they had too much of a political agenda.

“He just thought it was a very compelling, and what he thought was authentic portrayal of what life is like for many of our troops in Iraq. Of the films that have been done about this war, that is the most authentic.”

“This is the first Iraq war movie that (Defense Secretary Robert Gates) has liked, or for that matter seen. In looking at all previous films he thought they had too much of a political agenda.”

Continued from B1 Oregon laws tended to favor men, notes Goeres-Gardner.

“A widow could not even have custody of her own children,” she says. “If a woman worked — which there was little possibility for a woman — but if she washed clothes for other people, to earn some extra money, that money did not belong to her. It belonged to her husband or father. She couldn’t make a contract with anybody without her husband or father’s permission.”

Patriarchal laws — many of which did not change until after women acquired the right to vote, she says — led women such as Charity Lamb into dire straits.

“Charity Lamb is the first woman ever convicted of murder in Oregon,” she says. “She was treated abominably by her husband. He was very abusive physically, mentally, although she’d given birth to six sons for him he beat her; he treated her terrible.”

Her husband had shot at her, beaten her on many occasions (for such affronts as dropping a load of wood), and told her he planned to kill her, specifying the date. He also told her he would take their sons with him to California, where he planned to take up with a widow he knew.

On May 13, 1854, the day he’d said he was going to kill her, Charity Lamb grabbed an ax and slammed it into her husband’s head while his back was turned. He died a week later, on May 20.

“She had no recourse. Even though the neighbors all knew what he was doing to her — no question, they knew — and nobody did anything. And when she did fight back, they treated her terrible,” Goeres-Gardner says. On Sept. 17, 1854, Lamb was sentenced to life imprisonment and hard labor. In 1862, she was transferred to a Portland insane asylum.

Goeres-Gardner is at work on her fourth book, about the Oregon State Hospital, built in the 1880s in Salem.

Her third book, a photo history of Roseburg, will be released in March. It contains much tamer material than her others, she says, yet she couldn’t resist including a few

Sarah Amanda McDaniel was accused of conspiring with her lover to murder her husband in the 1880s. She was acquitted, and her lover, Lewis O’Neil, was hanged for the crime.

Though she was acquitted, writes Diane L. Goeres-Gardner, the public never did forgive her: “A married woman who had an affair was enough to convict her in public opinion.” criminal tidbits, “because I knew about them,” she says, laughing.

In writing “Murder, Morality and Madness,” she took pains to make it readable without being sensational.

“I think each section could stand alone,” she says. “I didn’t want to make it Ann Rule kind of sensational thing. I tried to remain as dispassionate about (the subject matter) as I could.

“Some of those stories got to me,” she says. “I just felt compelled to write the women’s stories. They seemed to just resonate in my heart. I wanted people to understand the kind of lives these women led.”

That’s not to say that Oregon’s female criminals were always the best behaved. Sarah Amanda McDaniel was accused of conspiring with her lover to murder her

husband in the 1880s. Though she was eventually acquitted of the crime, writes Goeres-Gardner, the public never did forgive her: “A married woman who had an affair was enough to convict her in public opinion.”

Morality in the 1800s was a huge issue, and one’s reputation used to be a very powerful force in society, a concept we don’t entirely understand today, she adds.

Researching her family led this fifth-generation Oregonian to write her first books, but she couldn’t find any evidence of hangings in either Tillamook, where she grew up, or Douglas County, where she now lives. “I tried and tried.”

On the other hand, she has heard from the descendants of people in her books.

“Usually they’re tickled. They’ll e-mail me or come up to me after talks. They’ll tell me about their ancestor and so forth,” she says.

“I’m happy to send them the information I have. … I want people to get interested.”

“An important reason that I wrote the book is so we don’t forget,” she says. “It’s an attempt, instead of keeping things secret, to allow people to see what the reality was.

“Secrets can propagate. They become things unto themselves.

And if we don’t kind of air them out, they can fester.”

Navy band Continued from B1 There were a few tears Thursday and recollections of bad times as the latest generation of band members stood at attention in gold-buttoned dark overcoats and the band’s ceremonial unit played “Eternal Father, Strong to Save,” the Navy hymn. Family and friends walked up a slate path and stood in silence as a ribboned wreath of lilies and mums was placed by the graves and a bugler played taps.

Afterward, people marveled at how big the gnarled old tree had grown in 50 years.

The Feb. 25, 1960, disaster came at the height of the Cold War, and the members of the Washington-based band were front-line cultural warriors.

The band was visiting South America at the same time as President Dwight D. Eisenhower on the “Operation Amigo” goodwill tour, aimed at countering Soviet influence in the region, according to Navy Band archivists.

About 90 musicians flew to Trinidad on Feb. 6 and boarded the USS Macon cruiser for the voyage to South America, according to Don Stratton, 77, a retired band trombonist who was on the trip and almost took the doomed Feb. 25 flight.

Many of the musicians had graduated from elite music schools, played with symphony orchestras and had young families.

Violinist Raymond Micaleff, 37, had a wife, three children and brand new Cape Cod in Maryland with practically no furniture. Trumpeter Richard Harl, 33, of Washington, was married and the father of a 4-year-old girl.

French horn player Earl Richey had a wife and three young children in Landover, Md. The Macon was docked at Buenos Aires when a summons came on Feb. 22. Musicians were needed in Rio de Janeiro to play at a U.S. Embassy reception where Eisenhower would host Brazilian President Juscelino Kubitschek.

Light but elegant music was wanted, so the band dispatched 19 members, mostly from its “concert orchestra” — strings, trumpets, French horns, a drummer and pianist.

After the crash, the concert orchestra was never reconstituted, Navy Band archivists said.

One of those chosen was trombonist Roger Wilklow, 23. But he had been feeling ill, and the day before the trip his buddy, Stratton, offered to pinch-hit. Wilklow said he’d see how he felt in the morning. The next day, Stratton, then 28, recalled asking him, “You want to go?”

Wilklow replied: “I feel better.

I think I’ll go.”

It was to be a long day. Breakfast at 0500. Then the 1,200-mile flight. The band could travel in dress khakis, but the men were

On ‘Oprah,’ Ebert begins to sound like his former self

By Gerry Smith Chicago Tribune

Nearly four years after a battle with thyroid cancer robbed him of the ability to speak, iconic film critic Roger Ebert sounded like his former self Friday during a taping of “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” the show’s producer said.

It was no medical miracle, but rather a demonstration of new software using audio recordings of Ebert to create a synthetic voice that sounds like his own.

CereProc, a company based in Edinburgh, Scotland, created the voice for him using mostly audio of Ebert’s DVD commentaries on “Citizen Kane” and “Casablanca.”

The company’s technology allows Ebert to sound more natural than other “text to speech” software — even allowing for a range of emotions. “Roger has many years of experience in broadcasting,” said Matthew Aylett, chief technical officer for CereProc. “Obviously we couldn’t record him but he did have a lot of audio material we could use to build his voice.”

While Ebert’s new voice sounds like his own, it occasionally makes errors, Aylett said. In particular, the software has difficulty pronouncing unusual proper names and sometimes fails to make intonation sound natural, he said.

Ebert has big plans, including using his own voice to host online or telecast video essays, he wrote on his blog. “I am greatly cheered,” he wrote.

“My oldest was 6.

I took her in my lap. I told her that her daddy had been killed and that he wasn’t coming home. She cried and got down and went and played. I remember thinking, ‘Boy, I wish I could do that.’”

They were to be on-site by 8:15 p.m. They would play ruffles and flourishes, waltzes, maybe a Brazilian march, a little Sousa.

It would go until after midnight, according to the orders preserved in the band’s archives at the Washington Navy Yard.

About 1:10 p.m., as the stubby, four-engine Navy transport plane approached Rio in foggy weather, it collided with a twinengine Brazilian airliner, according to news reports.

Both planes were ripped apart

and tumbled into Rio’s Guanabara Bay. Three men on the Navy plane — none from the band — were the only survivors. The death toll was 61, including all 19 musicians.

Back home it was snowing, one widow recalled, as the terrible news filtered in.

“I was watching TV and getting my oldest daughter ready for school,” said Phyllis Daw, then 27 and the wife of oboe player Chief Musician Walter Penland, 30.

The couple had three children.

“I remember thinking, ‘Boy, I wish I could do that,’” she said.

Daw said she went into early labor and was rushed to the hospital, where she remained for some time. She missed the funeral and has never been to her husband’s grave site. She was not in attendance Thursday.

“I look back on it now and I think, ‘I don’t know how I got

through that,’ or how any of us got through it,” Daw said. To this day, she said, she gets anxious when she sees news bulletins on television: “I want to get up and leave the room.”

“It leaves a permanent mark on you,” she said. “Every day, I pray that God will put his angels all around my family — tall angels, 6 feet tall, holding hands, shoulder to shoulder, and I really believe that does help.”

Summit boys, girls take leads at state championships MOUNT BACHELOR — The Summit boys and girls teams dominated the competition on Friday during the first event of the Oregon High School Nordic Organization’s state championships.

The championships opened with a 7.5-kilometer freestyle race on trails near the Mt. Bachelor Nordic Center, where the Storm squads pulled far ahead of the other five competing teams going into today’s 5K classic and 3x-1K relay races.

“The two distance races are weighted slightly more than the relay,” said Summit coach Gregg Strome. “If Summit skis consistently [today] in the classic, we should be able to retain the lead without winning the relay.”

Summit girls took five of the top 10 spots, led by senior Isabella Smith in first with a time of 24 minutes, 14.1 seconds. Keelin Moehl of Summit came in second in 24:16.3, and Nikkii Grenier of Bend High grabbed the third-place spot in 24:35.8.

The Lava Bears clinched the second-place team spot followed by the Redmond girls in third.

On the boys side, the Storm earned four of the five top spots and seven of the top 10. Senior Pat Madden was champion in 19:15.5, followed by Dan Coil in a time of 20:56.1. Michael Widmer clinched the third-place spot, clocking a time of 21:08.3. All three boys ski for Summit.

The Bend High boys were in second place as a team followed by the Panthers.

FISHING Lake Billy Chinook opens on Monday Lake Billy Chinook, near Culver, opens to fishing on Monday, and this spring could offer some of the best bull trout fishing in several years.

Because the bull trout population is somewhat cyclic, biologists are able to make a general prediction for the fishing season at Lake Billy Chinook.

“It should be an excellent year,” said Brett Hodgson, a Bend-based fisheries biologist for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. “It should be the best year in about the last five years.”

In addition to an annual Oregon fishing license, a Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs fishing permit is required to fish for any species in the Metolius Arm of Lake Billy Chinook. Tribal permits are available at www.tribalpermit.com.

Daily permits are $10, twoday permits are $16, threeday permits are $21 and seasonal permits are $32.

Bulldogs lead at 2A/1A state meet Culver puts six wrestlers in finals, three others from C.O. schools also win in semifinals

By Beau Eastes The Bulletin

PORTLAND — Culver sophomore David Badillo credits teammate Mitch Nelson with getting him into wrestling as a sixth-grader.

Nelson says practicing with Badillo every day helped him win the Class 2A/1A 119-pound state title last year as a freshman.

Today at Portland’s Memorial Coliseum the two 10th

graders, friends since middle school, will make Culver wrestling history — no easy feat in a program that has won three consecutive state championships — when they compete against one another for the 2A/1A 125-pound state title. Badillo, who placed third in the 125-pound bracket a year ago, pinned Enterprise’s Brock Hayes in one semifinal on Friday while Nelson defeated Scio’s Wayne Vinton 9-4 in the other, setting up an all-Bulldog state final, the first in school history.

“They’ve got their opponents pretty well scouted,” joked Culver coach J.D. Alley, whose team enters today’s championship round with a 46.5-point lead, 113.5-67, over Lowell. “You’re probably gong to see a pretty low-scoring match. These guys have been drill partners before and they know each others’ moves. David’s pretty explosive on his feet and Mitch’s pretty good at stopping attacks.”

NEW YORK — They worked hard, they triumphed, and then they played hard — the way athletes so often do.

And yet the photos of the Canadian women hockey players joyously feting their gold medal with beer, champagne and cigars struck some as jarring, or at least inappropriate. And the International Olympic Committee said it was looking into the incident, which took place on the Olympic ice after fans had left.

On Twitter, Facebook and other venues across the Web, many were debating whether the scrutiny was fair. Most seemed to think it wasn’t, and a number thought it smacked of sexism, conscious or not.

“I’m gobsmacked at the reaction,” said Kara DeFrias, a writer from San Diego who expressed her thoughts on Twitter, calling officials hypocrites for even looking into the matter.

“If this were the men’s team, would anybody be saying one word about it?” asked DeFrias, in a followup telephone interview.

“Of course not. It would be no big deal, because boys will be boys. I absolutely think they singled these players out because they’re women.”

PREP GIRLS BASKETBALL

La Pine tops Sisters in Sky-Em playoff game, earns state berth The Associated Press SISTERS — Katarina Larkin stepped in at point guard and led La Pine to a 31-29 Sky-Em League playoff win over host Sisters Friday evening.

Filling in for an ill Brittany Glenn, Larkin racked up a team-high 12 points in what proved to be a backand-forth, low-scoring contest. La Pine coach Kim Beer expects Glenn,

a regular starter, to be ready for state playoff action next week.

Battling for the third and final spot in the league (the top three teams earn a berth to the Class 4A state playoffs) the Hawks (7-6 SkyEm League, 17-9 overall) persevered and will travel Tuesday to face the winner of today’s Douglas at Brookings-Harbor game.

After numerous lead changes, La

Pine pulled off the road win with only minutes remaining in the final period. Kassi Conditt grabbed 10 rebounds, Meagan McReynolds offered up four assists and Casey Wright logged four steals for the Hawks.

“It wasn’t a great win, but it was a win,” said a relieved Beer.

Sisters’ Taylor Nieri led the home team with eight points.

Some elite programs may not make NCAA tournament

By Eric Prisbell The Washington Post

For perennial powers, it is an annual rite of February to begin gearing up for another deep run in the postseason tournament. The only difference for five of the sport’s bluebloods this year could be the name of the tournament.

North Carolina, Louisville, UCLA, Connecticut and Arizona — an elite fivesome that has combined for 15 Final Four appearances and five national titles in the past 13 years — are in danger of missing the NCAA tournament and having to play in the NIT. And the Bruins and Tar Heels, who have combined for 16 national titles, are even on the NIT bubble.

Fans are not the only ones angst-ridden during uncharacteristically mediocre (or worse) seasons. Connecticut’s Jim Calhoun and North Carolina’s Roy Williams have both used the word “embarrassed” to describe their feelings toward the play of their team, or in Williams’ case, his own coaching performance.

“After the game it just kills you,” Williams said of the worst season of his

COLLEGE BASKETBALL 22-year head-coaching career. “It sticks with you. Can’t sleep, can’t eat. And at the same time you have to do everything you can to improve.”

The Tar Heels have become the powder-blue poster child for underachieving teams. One season after winning its fifth national championship, some regression was expected after losing Tyler Hansbrough, Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington, all first-round NBA draft picks. But the Tar Heels (14-14, 3-10 ACC) have lost seven of eight games entering today’s matchup at Wake Forest. Injuries, most notably to forward Ed Davis, inconsistent guard play and an apparent crisis of confidence have derailed the season.

Much like North Carolina, UCLA has also found life difficult after losing talented underclassmen, chief among them Kevin Love and Russell Westbrook, to the NBA in recent years. After making three consecutive Final Four appearances between 2006 and 2008, the Bruins

(13-14, 8-7 Pacific-10) opened the season 2-6 after losses to Cal State Fullerton and Portland, among others.

Regardless of the player turnover, Coach Ben Howland said the coaching staff is “ultimately responsible for building a good team. We have really struggled in that respect this year.”

UCLA and North Carolina do not need .500 records to receive an NIT invitation, but teams that win their conference’s regular season title and then lose in the conference tournament receive automatic invitations to the 32-team field.

An eight-member committee then attempts to put the strongest possible field together.

The two usual Big East stalwarts have a chance to salvage their seasons after rocky regular seasons. UConn returned three key members of last season’s Final Four team — Jerome Dyson, Kemba Walker and Stanley Robinson — only to fall to 4-8 in conference play. The Huskies have renewed hope after winning three straight games, including victories over Villanova and West Virginia. But with a 17-11 overall record, their margin

for error remains small.

“I have no misgivings about what we didn’t do,” said Calhoun, who watched his team struggle during his seven-game leave of absence for medical reasons.

“All I care about is what we are doing right now. There is no look-back in life.

There are no mulligans. I am just happy with what we are doing now, and we still have a lot more work to do.”

On Sunday, the Huskies will host a Louisville team that also could be sweating it out on Selection Sunday. The Cardinals (18-10, 9-6 Big East) suffered three nonconference losses to non-BCS conference teams, including a damaging home loss to Western Carolina on Dec. 12. One of the few reasons they still have realistic hopes of an NCAA tournament at-large berth is because they accomplished something only one other team has done this season: win at Syracuse.

But Coach Rick Pitino has told players that they’ll need 11 Big East victories to reach the NCAA tournament. And with a schedule that includes road games at Connecticut and NCAA tournament

hopeful Marquette, that could mean the Cardinals may have to beat Syracuse again in the March 6 regular-season finale.

“The thing you can’t figure out is where you get a win in the Big East,” Pitino said. “We have a tough road ahead of us to get to 11 (conference wins). We may need the (Big East) tournament. But we are right there. We are in a lot better shape than a lot of people.”

While UConn and Louisville still harbor hopes of earning at-large berths, Arizona is two weeks away from seeing its 25-year streak of reaching the NCAA tournament end if it cannot win the Pacific-10 tournament. Growing pains were expected under first-year Coach Sean Miller, whose team limped through nonconference play and has been unable to distinguish itself in a balanced yet mediocre Pacific-10. No Pacific-10 team may earn an at-large berth this season.

“We have never really had a big picture this season,” said Miller, who believes it takes a couple seasons for players and a new coach to acclimate themselves to one another.

NBA ROUNDUP

S B

NBA SCOREBOARD SUMMARIES

Prep girls basketball • North Lake loses: The Cowgirls closed out a solid season (21-3 overall) on Friday night on their home court, losing 42-37 in a close back-andforth Class 1A playoff game against Griswold.

Foul trouble and crucial missed layups at the end of the fourth quarter added up to a five-point deficit for North Lake. “We had a strong first quarter, but they (pushed the ball) in the third,” noted Cowgirls coach Tracey Fivecoat. “It was a good game to watch.” Lesley Dark led in points scored for North Lake with 20, and added nine rebounds.

Amanda Dark led in assists with five of 11 total for North Lake. The Cowgirls finished 13-1 in the Mountain Valley League in the regular season.

Golf • Gatorade drops Tiger: Add Gatorade to the list of endorsement deals that Tiger Woods has lost. A representative for the drink, sold by PepsiCo Inc., confirmed late Friday that it had ended its relationship with the golfer, who made a lengthy public apology last week for his infidelities.

“We no longer see a role for Tiger in our marketing efforts and have ended our relationship,” a Gatorade spokeswoman said. “We wish him all the best.” The companies that have stuck most closely by Woods, Nike Inc. and Electronic Arts Inc. — which have invested specifically in his athleticism — reiterated their support last week when the golfer made his public apology.

Baseball • Beavers win: Tyler Smith went three-for-six and Tyler Waldron held Tennessee to one run as the Oregon State baseball team opened its 2010 home schedule with a 17-1 win over the Volunteers Friday night at Goss Stadium in Corvallis.

Smith now has two multiple-hit games and two multi-RBI efforts this season. He doubled and finished with two singles in Friday night’s win.

Waldron went 7 2⁄3 innings, throwing 100 pitches in the win, his seventh in two seasons at Oregon State (4-1). The righty scattered five hits and a run in his second start of the season, walking two with two strikeouts.

• Ducks lose on Thursday night: A mistakefilled top of the first by Oregon was the only advantage Hawaii needed in its 4-3 victory over the Ducks on Thursday night in Honolulu. Oregon (3-2) allowed three unearned runs in the inning.

K.C. Serna led the Ducks at the plate with a threefor-four performance.

• HGH testing not close, union head says: New major league baseball union chief Michael Weiner said Friday that it is premature to discuss the possibility of HGH testing for union players.

“We don’t know enough about that (procedure) yet. We just had our first meeting today. We will probably talk about that as we go on,” Weiner said. Major league baseball issued a statement Wednesday that said it is considering immediate steps to implement HGH testing in the minor leagues, and that commissioner Bud Selig is committed to dealing with the issue at the major league level.

• Dodgers’ Belliard must shed pounds to fulfill weight clause: The most expensive two pounds in baseball reside in the general vicinity of Ronnie Belliard’s waistline. A leading candidate to start at second base on opening day for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Belliard must adhere to a weight clause if he wants to activate his $825,000 one-year deal.

So far it remains a work in progress. The Dodgers want Belliard to be at 209 pounds at some point this spring before the contract can become official. Belliard reported to spring training this week and said he’s close to the goal weight but could be as heavy as 211 pounds.

Basketball • Lakers’ Bynum fined $25K: The NBA has fined Los Angeles Lakers center Andrew Bynum $25,000 for publicly criticizing game officials.

Bynum made the critical comments following the Lakers’ 101-96 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday.

• Ex-NBA All-Star accused of sex trafficking: Former NBA All-Star Alvin Robertson has been charged with sexual assault of a child, trafficking an underage child for purposes of sex and forcing a sexual performance by a child. The charges were contained in an arrest warrant Friday. Robertson has not been apprehended. Authorities claim the 47-year-old former Spurs star was part of a ring that kidnapped a 14-year-old girl from San Antonio, forced her to have sex with clients and to dance at a Corpus Christi strip club last year.

• No. 15 Butler wins: Willie Veasley scored 20 points and Matt Howard had 17 to lead No. 15 Butler to a 74-69 victory at Valparaiso Friday night and stretch its nation-leading winning streak to 18 games. The Bulldogs (26-4, 18-0) pulled out the win even without top scorer Gordon Hayward, who was out with a back injury.

Tennis • Djokovic, Youzhny reach final in Dubai: Defending champion Novak Djokovic edged unseeded Marcos Baghdatis 6-7 (2), 6-3, 6-4 Friday to reach the final of the Dubai Championships in the United Arab Emirates Djokovic will play Mikhail Youzhny, who defeated Jurgen Melzer 7-5, 7-6 (4) to reach the Dubai final for the second time in four years.

• Dementieva cruises into semis at Malaysian Open: Elena Dementieva cruised past Magdalena Rybarikova 6-0, 6-3 Friday to reach the semifinals of the Malaysian Open. Dementieva will play sixth-seeded Sybille Bammer, who rallied to defeat Chang Kai Chen 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 after a rain delay.

Football • Vikings willing to wait on Favre’s decision: Minnesota coach Brad Childress will give Brett Favre as much time as he wants to make up his mind about coming back for the 2010 season.

Childress spoke Friday at the NFL’s annual scouting combine. Right now, Childress said football is not Favre’s primary focus. Childress said he spoke with Favre this week and that he was still recovering from the beating he took in the NFC championship game. He’s also putting down limestone at his mother-in-law’s house.

Chicago Bulls’ James Johnson (16) fouls the Portland Trail Blazers’ Brandon Roy during the first half Friday in Chicago.

Bulls edge Blazers in OT The Associated Press CHICAGO — Derrick Rose thought he capped off a spectacular fourth quarter with a game-winning layup, but instead had to take a secondary role as his teammates finished off the Trail Blazers in overtime.

Rose scored 33 points and Luol Deng added seven of his 23 in the extra period to lead the Chicago Bulls to a 115-111 victory over Portland on Friday night.

Rose scored 12 points in the fourth quarter, but was held scoreless in overtime when the Blazers started trapping him in the frontcourt. Rose thought he had it won with a layup over LaMarcus Aldridge as time expired to end regulation, but the ball rimmed out.

“I thought it was definitely in after I hit the backboard. I said, ‘It’s in, that’s game,’” Rose said.

Brandon Roy’s jumper with 3:46 left in overtime gave the Blazers a 107-106 lead, but Kirk Hinrich answered for the Bulls with a driving layup, Deng made a fadeaway jumper, and Joakim Noah found Taj Gibson for a layup to put the Bulls up 112-107 with 2:09 remaining.

“We had open shots. They were trying to double-team Derrick on the top. We found spots and moved the ball and had open shots,” Deng said.

Portland came back and Roy tried for the lead but missed a 3-pointer with 5 seconds left. Deng finished on the other end to seal the game for the Bulls with a dunk.

The Bulls have won six of seven since the All-Star break.

“We had stretches of good play and stretches of bad play but we were to take care of business in overtime,” Hinrich said.

Aldridge finished with a seasonhigh 32 points and Roy added 23 for Portland.

After missing seven games with plantar fasciitis, Noah has played sparingly in four games as he tries to return to full strength. When he was on the bench, the Blazers took advantage. Aldridge had 26 points through the first three quarters on 12-of-17 shooting, but Noah slowed down Aldridge late in the game with his defense.

“We probably got a little greedy, but I asked him how he felt and he said he felt good, but I could see he got a little fatigued. His length made a big difference for us against (Marcus) Camby and Aldridge,” Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro said.

Noah finished with 11 rebounds in 27 minutes and slowed down Aldridge in the fourth quarter.

The Bulls trailed 95-90 after Camby’s dunk with 5:56 left in the fourth quarter, but they came back after Deng hit a jumper and made a pair of free throws. Rose then gave the Bulls a 96-95 lead with a layup.

Roy’s jumper over Deng in the lane tied it with 16 seconds left in the fourth quarter. Rose then missed a layup with Aldridge contesting as the buzzer sounded.

“It was a lifetime (as the ball hung on the rim),” Aldridge said. “When he drove past me, I just tried to go and meet him at the rim. He kind of lofted it over my hand. It kind of made it tough on him to finish. It kind of hung on the rim and for a second I thought we lost then it came out.”

Aldridge was the second overall pick in the 2006 draft by the Bulls, but the Bulls turned around and traded him for the rights of Portland’s fourth pick in that year’s draft, which

ended up being Tyrus Thomas. The Bulls traded Thomas before last week’s trade deadline to help clear cap space.

“Last game I couldn’t buy a bucket (4 for 12 in a win against Toronto). I just tried to stay patient and tried to stay on my shot,” said Aldridge, who also acknowledged Noah was a factor against him late in the game.

“When he (Noah) picked up his intensity. I was kind of fatigued.”

Deng, who scored a season-high 31 points for the Bulls in Wednesday’s win over Indiana, played despite a swollen left knee.

The Bulls led 52-51 at the half. Hakim Warrick had 11 points off the bench in the first half for the Bulls.

He finished with 15 points.

Aldridge led the Blazers with 18 points in the first half. He was 8 for 10 from the field.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — So these won’t be remembered as the (Lindsey) Vonn-couver Olympics after all. It’s looking like they will belong to the entire U.S. delegation instead.

The Americans reached 34 medals with a silver and a bronze in short-track speedskating Friday night, and two more were clinched with the men’s hockey team and men’s team pursuit in speedskating advancing to a gold-medal match in which they can get no worse than silver.

That makes 36 medals, topping the U.S. record of 34 set at the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics and matching the record for the most by any country at any Winter Olympics, set by Germany in Salt Lake City.

“It’s a great time to be an American,” said Katherine Reutter, who got a silver in the 1,000 meters at the short track. “One of the many things I was yelling was ‘I love the USA!’ ” And, look who’s leading the gold race: Canada, with 10. Maybe the hosts’ “Own the Podium” campaign will pay off after all.

Team USA’s David Backes (42) and Finland’s Joni Pitkanen (25) collide in the first period of a men’s semifinal-round ice hockey game Friday.

U.S. routs Finland, will play Canada for gold medal

By Ira Podell The Associated Press

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Barely two minutes into the game, Finnish goalie Miikka Kiprusoff was staring at the ceiling in disbelief.

It turns out he was just getting started.

Ryan Malone raced into Finland’s zone, picked off Kiprusoff’s ill-advised pass and scored into an empty net. The U.S. rout was on.

What happened next in this semifinal jolted Canada Hockey Place: The Americans scored four times on Kiprusoff in a six-goal first period Friday, winning 6-1 and surging into the Olympic goldmedal game. As the clock ran out, U.S. captain Jamie Langenbrunner led the celebration by banging his stick against the boards as his teammates hugged on the bench.

The U.S. will meet Canada on Sunday, 50 years to the day after capturing gold in 1960 at Squaw Valley, Calif. Canada beat Slovakia 3-2 to advance.

“It was a crazy 12 minutes,” said forward Patrick Kane, who scored twice.

“I’ve never been a part of something like that. It seemed like we were scoring every shift.”

It felt even longer to the Finns.

“The game is over after six minutes,” 39-year-old Finland forward Teemu Selanne said. “It was a long day and very disappointing.”

By the time Kiprusoff left the game 10:08 in, the U.S. had a 4-0 lead on only seven shots. The Calgary Flames goalie had allowed four goals total on 75 shots in three previous games, giving him the top save percentage in the tournament.

“No one is ever as good as they look.

And no one is ever as bad as they look, either,” Langenbrunner said.

Kiprusoff’s day appeared to be over after Eric Johnson made it 3-0 with a

power-play goal at 8:36. That prompted Finnish coach Jukka Jalonen to call timeout. Kiprusoff got a reprieve, but was back at the bench 1:32 later when Kane scored his first.

This time, Kiprusoff kept his mask on and marched straight down the tunnel toward the dressing room. Backup goalie Niklas Backstrom pulled off his baseball cap and took Kiprusoff’s place in the net.

Things didn’t go any better for him.

Backstrom got beat twice on the first four shots he faced.

“We didn’t expect that in a million years,” U.S. defenseman Jack Johnson said. “I don’t think anyone did, especially when you get down to the final four, but it happened for us and we’re looking forward to Sunday.”

It will be the first time since 1972 the U.S. men will play for Olympic gold on foreign soil.

Kiprusoff had only himself to blame for the start of his misery. The U.S. cleared its zone with a nudge of the puck that sent it sliding slowly into the Finnish end. Phil Kessel raced after it and forced Kiprusoff to come way out of his crease. The goalie gently swept the puck away, but right onto the stick of Malone.

He quickly fired a shot from the top of the left circle into the vacated net at 2:04 for his third goal.

Zach Parise matched Malone and made it 2-0 when he nestled a shot under the crossbar for a power-play goal. It came off a perfect pass from Paul Stastny at 6:22.

This marks the second time in three Olympics the American men will play for gold. They haven’t claimed the top spot on the podium since the 1980 Miracle on Ice at Lake Placid, N.Y. “We believed we could win a gold medal. Now we have the opportunity,” Langenbrunner said.

Steve Holcomb and his sleek, black four-man bobsled known as the “Night Train” are halfway to gold. Officially known as USA-1, the sled set track records on both its runs, putting it in first place going into the last two heats tonight.

Speedskating More agony for Sven Kramer, lots of joy for the United States. The American men upset Kramer and the powerful Dutch team in one team pursuit semifinal, and the U.S. women knocked off Canada in their quarterfinal. The men will face Canada in the gold-medal race today. The women will face defending Olympic champion Germany in a semifinal today.

Short-track speedskating Apolo Anton Ohno — who became the mostdecorated Winter Olympian in U.S. history earlier in these games — picked up his eighth career medal by getting bronze in the 5,000-meter relay.

He had a chance for another but was disqualified from the 500 meters final. Wang Meng of China won the women’s 1,000 meters in short-track speedskating for her third gold medal of these games. Reutter’s medal in the event was her second. She also was part of the U.S. relay team that won bronze.

Slalom Maria Riesch of Germany won the slalom title for her second gold medal of these Olympics, as Lindsey Vonn skied out chasing her second victory. Riesch led after the first leg and had a combined two-run time of 1 minute, 42.89 seconds through the snow and fog on Friday. Marlies Schild of Austria was 0.43 second back to take silver.

Biathlon The 36-year-old Ole Einar Bjoerndalen nailed all 10 of his targets, anchoring Norway’s victory in the men’s biathlon relay. This was his first gold medal since sweeping all four events in 2002, and the 11th medal of his career. That leaves him one behind Bjorn Daehlie’s Winter Games record of 12.

Curling Canada was denied another gold medal on home ice, getting taken down by a Swedish team that captured its second consecutive gold medal in women’s curling. China, competing in its first Olympics, beat Switzerland for the bronze.

Snowboarding With rain turning the event into hydroplaning, Nicolien Sauerbreij of the Netherlands won the women’s parallel giant slalom race. Rider after top rider kept going out, unable to handle the strange conditions. About the only one who handled them consistently was Sauerbreij, who was her country’s flagbearer in 2002, but finished 24th.

ALPINE SKIING COMMENTARY

Vonn leaves the hype with only 1 gold

By Tim Dahlberg The Associated Press

WHISTLER, British Columbia — indsey Vonn could have quit, probably should have quit.

She wasn’t going to win the Olympic slalom even if she somehow managed to drag her battered body across the finish line. There wasn’t much sense in even trying, but, hey, this is the Olympics and the show must go on.

Her best friend in skiing, Maria Riesch, would be the fastest on this day. Vonn, meanwhile, was done so quick she had plenty of time to grab a bite to eat and freshen her makeup before giving Riesch a heartfelt hug of congratulations.

When they get together for the holidays at the end of the year as they usually do at Riesch’s home in Germany, they can swap Olympic stories. Perhaps Riesch will pull out her two gold medals just for old times’ sake.

And maybe by then, Vonn will be able to really smile about her Olympic experience.

This wasn’t how it was all supposed to unfold in the mountains outside Vancouver. Vonn was supposed to be the one carrying NBC to record ratings as the face of the Olympics, the one leaving the games with a fistfull of gold.

But her Olympics were all but over even before she stepped into the starting gate Friday. And her medals — one gold and one bronze — didn’t measure up to the hype.

They almost couldn’t. Expectations had been set way too high, especially by NBC and the sponsors who were only too eager to sign up for the golden girl’s ride.

No one remembered the lesson that was Bode Miller four years ago in Turin. Once again the gold standard was five medals in five races, and once again America’s best skier didn’t come close.

“Nothing goes the way you want it to,” Vonn said. “Nothing’s ever perfect.”

Vonn found that out before she ever took the slopes in these games. She suffered a badly bruised shin a week before the Olympics and, though she won her speciality, the downhill, she picked up only one other medal and didn’t finish in her other three races.

It was enough to keep her spot on the Jay Leno show when he returns Monday to late night television, and more than enough to add to her list of sponsors for everything from makeup to energy drinks. Men across America will also surely keep the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue that features Vonn in a bikini.

Vonn herself insisted she was happy, and she had a smile and a positive message for everyone who asked a question as she made the rounds of media in the snow near the finish line.

“I got the gold medal that I came here for, and even though I didn’t get all the medals that everyone else expected me to get, I accomplished all of my dreams,” she said. “You have to keep it in

American Lindsey Vonn reacts after skiing out during the first run of the women’s slalom Friday.

Vonn wrapped up the Olympics with a pair of medals, one of them gold. perspective.”

Had Vonn followed her own advice, it might have been easier for others to keep her Olympics in perspective. Two medals — one of them gold — is usually enough to get on a Wheaties box, but because Vonn expected more, everyone else did, too. Could easily have been more, too. She was the first-run leader in the super-combined before crashing out, and she was leading the super-G before playing it too safe at the bottom.

Now Riesch is the skiing star of these games, not Vonn.

“She’s the champion now. Her (Vonn’s) best friend is the champion,” said Austria ski federation president Peter Schroecksnadel. “That’s how it is at the Olympics.”

There was no real reason for Vonn to even ski Friday in the slalom because she was physically banged up, and mentally beaten down.

But she stood in the falling snow, in the starting gate for one last time. A mitten covered the plastic brace on her right hand to protect the pinkie she broke in the giant slalom two days before, but there wasn’t much that could be done about the sore back or the shin she bruised badly before the games began.

She was, as her publicity-happy husband

Thomas put it a day before, “a ball of hurt.”

It was destined not to end well, and it didn’t.

Slow at the top, Vonn straddled a gate in the first half of her run as she tried to make up time.

“I don’t know what’s going on,” she wondered plaintively back in the finish area.

Just like that, her Olympics were over.

“I was contemplating stopping after my crash in the GS, after I broke my finger,” she said. “But that’s just not who I am. The Olympics are something special — they only come once every four years — and I wanted to go out there and try. I knew that I wasn’t probably going to win a medal, but at least I gave it everything I have.”

The message was relentlessly positive, because that’s who Vonn is. If she was disappointed, she wasn’t going to show it and, besides, there’s always the appearance on Leno to look forward to.

She’s leaving with Olympic gold, but the whatifs may nag her all the way to the 2014 Games in Russia.

Maybe then she’ll leave the hype machine behind.

Cashing in: Harder for some Olympians than others

By David Crary The Associated Press

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — For Shaun White, Kim Yu-na and a few other household names, spectacular triumphs at the Vancouver Games will enhance already immense earning power. For lesserknown Winter Olympians, cashing in is not so easy.

Sports agents following the games say commercial opportunities for the athletes are more varied and potentially more lucrative than ever, but those who miss out on medals or toil in relatively obscure sports still face an uphill climb.

“The big ones have it made. It’s the small athletes who get hurt,” said Evan Morgenstein, an agent who has represented gymnast Nastia Liukin, swimmer Dara Torres and other Olympians.

As an example, he cited Johnny Spillane, who became the first American to win an Olympic medal in Nordic combined — a sport with a small fan base in North America.

“Unless there’s a story — an interesting family history, overcoming obstacles, his own health history — when the torch goes out, he better already have hit on something,” Morgenstein said. “You’re not going to see these kids in giant TV ad campaigns after the games.”

By contrast, South Korean figure-skating gold medalist Kim already was a global star before these games, and her record-setting performance Thurs-

Here’s the dope: No drug scandals yet in Vancouver

day night could make her one of the most marketable athletes of her era.

Park Young-ok, a researcher at the Korea Institute of Sport Science, estimated Friday that Kim’s gold medal would be worth $56 million, with fierce competition expected among companies eager to sign her to new deals.

The 19-year-old skater already was pulling in millions in endorsements from South Korea’s biggest conglomerates, including Hyundai and Samsung, as well as Nike and Universal Music.

New commercials airing during the Olympics showed Kim in a Hyundai SUV with her hair blowing in the wind, as a gangster’s moll on skates for a Samsung cell phone and as a Bond Girl a sleek white catsuit for an air conditioner ad.

White, who won gold in the halfpipe in these Olympics and in 2006, has a huge worldwide following for both his snowboarding and skateboarding exploits, as well as his charisma and distinctive looks.

While many other action-sports athletes get most of their marketing deals with companies linked to their sports, White has signed up with Target, AT&T and American Express, among others — and experts say his latest gold medal gives him virtually unlimited opportunities.

“Of all of them, Shaun is the one who’s really done a nice job building his brand,” said Kevin Lane Keller, a marketing professor at the Tuck School of Business

at Dartmouth College. “That’s one thing athletes have to realize — it’s not just being successful at the sport.

With Shaun, it’s his personality.”

Among the many athletes competing at the games, two names recurred in a series of interviews with agents and marketing experts — U.S. skier Bode Miller and Canadian figure skater Joannie Rochette.

Miller was widely viewed as the world’s top skier prior to the 2006 Olympics in Turin, but failed to win a medal there. His seemingly blase response to his defeats and his frequent critiques of Olympic commercialism reduced his appeal to some companies, but he has restored his luster with three medals at these Olympics.

“He’s a big story — people tune in to watch him ski,” said Peter Carlisle of the Octagon marketing firm’s Olympics and Action Sports Division. “Whether mainstream companies will come back in and launch a campaign with Bode, I don’t know. That will be interesting to see.”

Rochette, in contrast, riveted marketers because of her determination to keep competing — winning a bronze medal — despite the death of her mother last weekend hours after arriving in Vancouver.

“If overcoming adversity and being an inspirational is part of what your brand is about, you may start thinking, ‘Hey, she kind of embodies some of the core values of our organization,’ ” said Gary Pluchino, senior vice president of the sports marketing firm IMG.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — As the Vancouver Olympics draw to a close, one of the most striking statistics after two weeks of competition is zero.

That’s how many athletes have been disqualified for positive drug tests, testament perhaps to the deterrent effect of the most stringent antidoping program in Winter Games history.

Out of nearly 2,000 planned tests, the only doping violation so far has been minor — a female Russian hockey player was reprimanded after testing positive for a light stimulant contained in a decongestant before the games.

“There is nothing sensational to report,” said Arne Ljungqvist, head of the International Olympic Committee’s medical commission.

“We are finding not very much indeed. It seems promising.”

A few hundred more tests will be conducted over the final weekend of the games, with those results known early next week.

Could these games really be drug-free? Don’t bet on it.

“I’m a realist. I’m not naive,” IOC president Jacques Rogge said. “The final judgment will come in 2018.”

The IOC stores doping samples for eight years so they can be tested retroactively for drugs that were undetectable at the time of the games. If future testing shows an athlete cheated, the IOC can impose sanctions and strip any medals.

That was the case last year, when the IOC retested samples from the 2008 Beijing Olympics and nabbed five athletes for using CERA, a new blood-boosting substance. Bahrain’s Rashid Ramzi was stripped of his gold in the 1,500 meters.

“Clearly there has been a deterrent effect here for taking the drugs that are on the banned list,” Rogge said. “I’m happy that athletes were wise not to use those ‘classic’ substances. But it does not mean we will not need to retest at a later stage.”

Rogge said the current testing program still can’t catch athletes conducting their own blood transfusions or detect designer performanceenhancers that aren’t yet known to anti-doping scientists.

“Retesting will help us in that,” he said. “But all our experts say they do not expect there are many drugs being used today that we do not know about.”

As of Thursday, the IOC had conducted 1,821 tests — 1,426 urine, 395 blood — since the athletes’ villages opened Feb. 4. Athletes were subject to out-of-competition tests at any time and any place. In addition, all medalists were tested after each event, along with two others at random.

Ljungqvist said Thursday the Vancouver doping lab would take an extra look at some blood samples. He said there was “a low-grade suspicion at a very low rate” that some samples could indicate new versions of EPO, a hormone that increases oxygen-producing red blood cells in the system.

“There is not a particular suspicion directed towards a particular athlete,” Ljungqvist said.

“But we, just to make sure, wish to follow up some blood data. And that means that we are looking at perhaps cases that are maybe using late generations of EPO.” Not everyone thinks the absence of positive tests is a sign the Olympics are getting cleaner.

Dr. Charles Yesalis, a professor emeritus at Penn State University and one of the foremost experts on steroids, is among the skeptics.

“It means zero to me. I interpret it the same way I interpreted the 1980 Olympics in Moscow, when they said they had no positives,” Yesalis said in a telephone interview. “I’m sorry, it’s laughable.”

He said there was no reason to believe the doping problem was any better than it was 10 or 15 years ago.

“In this day and age, anybody who believes that elite sport is clean, God bless you, but I’ve been doing this for over 30 years, and my prognostication has been a bit better than the optimists,” Yesalis said.

Wrestling

Hockey

Continued from C1 One of six Bulldog wrestlers in today’s state finals, Badillo said he considered wrestling a “lame” sport until Nelson and Ryan Kasch — who will compete for a state title at 119 pounds today — convinced him to come out for the sport in middle school.

“If my best friends were going to wrestle,” Badillo said after his semifinal win, “I figured I would too.”

Nelson, who with a win against Badillo would still have a chance at the rare four-state title career, was tied 2-2 with Vinton after two periods before scoring nine points in the third period to advance to the state final for the second year in a row.

“It’ll come down to if (Badillo) wants his first state title more than I want to repeat,” said Nelson, whose brother Jake won a pair of championships for Culver in 2007 and 2008. “We know each other pretty well. It should make for a good match.”

Bulldog wrestlers Jared Kasch (103 pounds), Josue Gonzales (112), Ryan Kasch (119) and Nick Barany (215) all will wrestle for state championships today.

At the Class 5A state tournament, Crook County sophomore McKennan Buckner (103 pounds) and Madras senior Ryan Brunner all advanced past the semifinals on Friday.

Buckner, the 5A state runner-up at 103 pounds last season as a freshman, is back in the championship finals after blowing out his knee this past summer rodeoing. The Cowboy sophomore defeated Hillsboro freshman Ronnie Bresser 10-4 in the semifinal round.

“I had some confidence issues, but now I’m back,” said Buckner, who since returning to the mat in mid-January is undefeated. “From the very beginning of the (semifinal) match I knew I was going to get it done.”

After getting pinned in the Intermountain Conference district final last week

by Hermiston’s Matt Kilsdonk, Brunner will have a shot at redemption in the state finals against his IMC rival. Brunner led 3-2 after two periods in Friday’s

Continued from C1 In fact, DeFrias said, for her, it was nice to see these exuberant players erupt in joy. “I’m excited that they were celebrating in a way that they felt appropriate to celebrate,” she said.

And celebrate they did. Photos showed player Haley Irwin pouring champagne into the mouth of Tessa Bonhomme. Goalies Charline Labonte and Kim St-Pierre lay on their stomachs with a giant bottle of champagne resting just above the Olympic rings. Another player, Rebecca Johnston, posed for pictures in the front seat of the ice-resurfacing machine.

More disturbingly for some, Marie-Philip Poulin, who scored both goals in Canada’s 2-0 victory over the United States Thursday, had a beer in her hand. Poulin doesn’t turn 19 — legal drinking age in British Columbia — until next month. The drinking age in Alberta, where the Canadian team trains, is 18.

That’s what troubled hockey fan Erica Kolaski, a mother of an 8year-old boy, the most.

“I watch the Olympics with my son, and he always says he wants to do that, he wants to be like that,” said Kolaski, of Sheboygan, Wis. “Olympic athletes are held to a higher standard, and they should act accordingly.”

Besides, Kolaski added, “I just don’t think the Olympic ice is the place for a party. It’s no place to be drinking beer or smoking cigars, regardless of age or gender. I’d feel exactly the same if this were the men.”

For some, indeed, that was the point — whether you liked or disliked the behavior, it was athletes acting like athletes, hockey players acting like hockey players, and there was something satisfying in that.

In other words, male athletes overdo it sometimes, so why can’t women? That’s what Lesley Jane Seymour, editor of More magazine, wanted to know.

“Why should men have a monopoly on acting like idiots?” Seymour asked. “Being un-PC is an equal opportunity. Women are finally catching up on everything, including the opportunity to act like idiots after a sports event.

“So, is that progress?” Seymour asked. “I guess so.”

Seymour wasn’t overly impressed with the behavior, especially with the underage drinking.

But many who defended the players — and that seemed to be the dominant feeling across the Web — pointed out that it would have been different had the celebrating occurred while fans were still in their seats.

Without the fans, it was more like a locker room celebration, they said — similar to when baseball or football players pour champagne over each other’s heads in giddy victory fetes.

“I don’t see people checking ID cards in those locker room parties to make sure nobody’s underage,” said DeFrias, the San Diego writer.

Plus, noted Jennifer Olney, a marketing consultant and hockey fan from Frederick, Md., “This is the way hockey players celebrate!

Are you kidding? It used to be you’d see pro players come back (from halftime) with a cigarette hanging out of their mouth. This is nothing for hockey.”

One fan from Canada went so far as to call the celebration “adorable.”

“I thought they were just so cute,” said Josee La Rocque, 57, who called The Associated Press from Montreal. “They were just relaxing, on a high. So what if they took a swig of beer? The public had left. I’m upset this is even a story.”

It seemed that Olympic officials were not overly concerned about the antics of the Canadian players, who swiftly apologized.

The International Olympic Committee said it would send a letter to Canadian organizers asking for more details about what happened but was careful not to characterize the response as an investigation of the happenings.

Vancouver organizing chief John Furlong said it was simply a matter of “young kids who were happy.”

“They had a great time,” Furlong said Friday. “They let their hair down.”

Opinions were mixed among other “young kids” at a state girls’ high school hockey tournament Friday in St. Paul, Minn.

“You should be dog-piling with your teammates, smiling, crying.

Save the drinking for after,” said Brook Story, playing for the team from Warroad, a small town in northern Minnesota known as a hockey powerhouse.

But Layla Marvin, a junior and captain of the team (and a cousin of Gigi Marvin, who plays for the U.S. team that lost to Canada) wasn’t especially miffed by the celebration.

“I personally think it’s wrong, but they won the gold medal,” she said. “I’ve never done that, so who am I to judge them?”

NFL

Florida QB Tebow hopes new motion creates some believers at combine

By Michael Marot The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — Tim Tebow was the first big-name quarterback to take the NFL’s stage Friday.

He’s hoping the draft goes down the same way.

The man with one Heisman Trophy, two national titles and may be the most intriguing pro prospect since Michael Vick, came to the league’s annual scouting combine with a new look he hopes will improve his draft stock.

“It’s not necessarily changing the whole (throwing) motion, it’s where I’m holding the ball,” Tebow said. “I’m holding it higher and not having that loop in there. My release point isn’t different at all.”

The combine seems like old hat for Tebow, too.

He walked to the podium with that charismatic smile and trademark personality, then was introduced as “Some guy named Tebow is at podium C.” A few moments later, a reporter asked Tebow to autograph a notebook.

But this week is not about impressing the media or his loyal fans.

Nope, Tebow needs to wow the scouts who think it could take up to two years for him to make the transition from combination college quarterback to prototypical pocket passer. Others argue his success in college, his passion for the game and his work ethic will make the transition easier than it now

appears.

Tebow, as usual, has tossed aside conventional wisdom in an effort to show NFL executives what kind of player he is.

“I talked to a lot of different quarterbacks coaches and a lot of people who said ‘Wait till after the draft (to change the motion),’” Tebow said. “But I’m not afraid of what anybody thinks. If I need to change it, then I’m going to do it now.”

NFL executives will then have two months to make a decision about where Tebow fits into this year’s draft.

In the meantime, those people will scramble to answer questions about the other high-profile quarterbacks presumably ahead of Tebow on this year’s draft boards.

Notre Dame’s Jimmy Clausen is still recovering from toe surgery. Oklahoma’s Sam Bradford, the 2008 Heisman winner, missed all but three games last season with a shoulder injury. Texas’ Colt McCoy couldn’t finish the national championship game because of an injury to his throwing arm.

All three missed their scheduled media interviews Friday, which in past years has been an indication that players are undergoing additional medical checks. NFL officials could not confirm that happened Friday, saying only that the quarterbacks had “other obligations.”

None of the big four, including

Tebow, are expected to throw until their pro days next month. Tebow is the only one, so far, who has indicated he will do any of the drills this week.

“You’d love to see them work out here, but for a quarterback this is not the greatest environment,” said general manager Billy Devaney, whose Rams have the No. 1 pick in April. “They’re out there throwing to receivers they’ve never thrown to before, they’re throwing routes they maybe haven’t thrown in college. It’s hard to get into a groove when you throw three balls and go to the end of the line and then throw three more.”

Trying to make projections is even tougher for talent evaluators because of how different the offenses are.

Clausen played in a prostyle system under Charlie Weis at Notre Dame, which some think give him an advantage. Cleveland’s Brady Quinn came out of the same system and still hasn’t lived up to the expectations.

McCoy and Bradford played in predominantly passing programs in the high-scoring Big 12, which have translated into mixed results in the NFL. Tebow rarely played under center at Florida and built his reputation as much on running as passing, something he knows must change against the bigger, stronger, faster players in the NFL. Who is the best?

Opinions vary.

Oklahoma tight end Jermaine Gresham and Texas receiver Jordan Shipley each cast votes for the guys they played with in college.

Reports have indicated the Rams favor Bradford over Clausen, though Devaney denied that Friday.

And coaches and scouts are still trying to sort things out.

To those looking for a quarterback in the first round, San Francisco general manager Scot McCloughan offers some advice after seeing Alex Smith, the top overall pick in 2005, finally emerge as the player the 49ers expected in 2009.

“If you’re going to take a spread quarterback, know that that’s what he’s used to,” McCloughan said. “The reason you’re drafting him is because he’s been a good football player. Don’t completely change what he’s done in the past that’s made him successful.”

Tebow isn’t changing everything.

He insists the only real difference is that he’s shortened his throwing motion to get rid of the ball quicker — and he hopes get himself back on the podium come April 22.

“I know wherever I go and whoever drafts me is going to get someone who gives everything to the team, who leaves everything on the field every day,” he said. “My dream is to be an NFL quarterback and I’m going to do whatever it takes to do that. If I’m asked to do something else, I’ll do it, because it’s always team first.”

Camilo Villegas rests his chin on the second green while lining up a putt during the second round of the Phoenix Open Friday in Scottsdale, Ariz. Villegas is tied for the lead.

Villegas falters, falls into tie for first at PGA event The Associated Press SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.

— Mark Wilson charged and Camilo Villegas faltered.

The result was a two-way tie for the lead at 11-under 131 halfway through the Phoenix Open.

Wilson birdied the last four holes for a 5-under 66, while Villegas bogeyed No. 18 when he missed a 14-foot putt for par.

The 28-year-old Colombian settled for a 69 after tying the tournament first-round record with a 9-under 62 on Thursday.

Eleven players were within two shots of the lead at TPC Scottsdale, where a crowd estimated at more than 100,000 attended the second round Friday under thinly overcast conditions.

Anthony Kim (65), Ryan Moore (66) and Rickie Fowler (67) were 10 under.

Tom Lehman, nine days shy of his 51st birthday, had a 67 to top a group of six at 9 under.

Play was suspended because of darkness with one player, Matt Every, still on the course. He had a 3-footer for a birdie that would put him at 9 under.

Wilson, who said he was ill early in the week after returning from the Mayakoba Golf Classic in Cancun, Mexico, considers himself the bland one among those at the top of the leaderboard.

“I’m not a flashy player. ... I see Anthony and Rickie and Camilo up there and they’re all very flamboyant characters, and it’s fun to watch them,” Wilson said. “So I’ll be somewhat of a spectator too, but certainly taking care of my own business.”

Villegas, who mixed three bogeys with an eagle and three birdies, insisted he was satisfied

with his second round.

“It’s tough to shoot 9 under in one day. To do it two days in a row, it’s even harder obviously,” he said. “Am I disappointed the fact I didn’t go low-low today?

No. You just want to stay in the tournament. I mean, after a great first day, you just want to keep plugging, keep staying there and give yourself a chance come Sunday afternoon.”

Wilson said this is the kind of desert course, with the open par 5s and par 4s and friendly greens, where golfers can get on the kind of runs that he did late Friday.

“I made a lot of putts, so if you’re seeing the lines good you can roll off a string of birdies pretty quick,” he said.

As many as 150,000 fans are expected for today, always the wildest day in the biggest party on the PGA Tour.

“I have fun,” Villegas said.

“It’s one week a year where we get to experience this.”

Tee times today were moved ahead an hour because of the chance of rain late in the day.

Rain is more likely Sunday.

After a bogey-free first round, Villegas made the turn Friday at 1 over for the day, but regrouped with a birdie at No. 10 and an eagle on the 13th to regain the lead at 11 under. He moved to 12 under with a birdie on the 15th.

On the 18th, his tee shot cleared the lake but landed in a large bunker next to a bush. He punched his second shot onto the fairway, then his third shot left him a 14-footer for par.

TPC Scottsdale is just a short distance from the Grayhawk Golf Club, where Fowler lost a three-way playoff to Jamie Lovemark and Troy Matteson in the Frys.com Open last

October.

“We had a good shot at it,” the 21-year-old Fowler said. “Hopefully we’ll give ourselves a better one this year.”

Englishman Ian Poulter, winner of Sunday’s Match Play championship down the road in Marana, Ariz., followed a 1-over 72 on Thursday with an 8-under 63 on Friday. He felt so exhausted after last week’s big win that he fully anticipated missing Friday’s cut.

“I even booked a plane for takeoff at 3 this afternoon,” Poulter said. “I wasn’t feeling good. It’s just nice to go out there and hit good golf shots, play well and put myself in a position now where I’ve put myself into form.”

Phil Mickelson was within reach of the lead after consecutive 68s left him at 6 under.

Also on Friday: Two tied in Singapore SINGAPORE — Angela Stanford shot a 1-under 71 for a share of the lead with Song-Hee Kim after the second round of the HSBC Champions.

Stanford, the former TCU star who has four LPGA Tour victories, and Kim (70) had 5-under 139 totals on Tanah Merah’s Garden Course.

Hall of Famer Juli Inkster (70) was a stroke back along with Ai Miyazato (71), Suzann Pettersen (70), Hee-Won Han (67) and Sun Young Yoo (70).

Top-ranked Lorena Ochoa, tied for the first-round lead after a 68, had a 7-over 79 to drop eight strokes back at 3 over. She had four bogeys and a triple bogey on the par-4 18th. The Mexican star won the inaugural tournament in 2008.

Michelle Wie was 1 over after a 73.

AUTO RACING: NASCAR

Kurt Busch wins pole in Vegas

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — Kurt Busch visited Victory Lane last year at his home track.

He was there to congratulate his little brother, Kyle, who became the first Busch brother to win at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

He wants his own party this year.

Kurt Busch shattered his brother’s track record Friday with a pole-winning role at Las Vegas, the track he and Kyle Busch consider to be among the most important on the series. The Las Vegas natives watched construction of the track, hopeful to one day get a chance to race there — and maybe even win.

“I’m pretty stoked,” Kurt Busch said. “It’s something you can’t count your chickens before they’ve hatched, but this would be a special win.

It’s hard to play what-if.”

Busch grew emotional in his pole-winners press conference, having to stop to compose himself and wipe away tears when he recognized one of his father’s former racing rivals, who was at the track in a media role.

“I just love Vegas,” he said. “It’s the people that make it special to me. It’s just fun seeing everybody.”

Busch turned a lap of 188.719 mph to claim the top starting spot for Sunday’s race. Jeff Gordon was second with a lap at 188.646. Ryan Newman qualified third and was followed by Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kyle Busch.

Kyle Busch held the previous track record

Isaac Brekken / The Associated Press

Kurt Busch (2) watches NASCAR Sprint Cup Shelby American qualifying Friday in Las Vegas. Busch won the pole. of 185.995 mph. In all, 18 drivers bettered that speed.

Busch, who is winless in nine previous starts at Las Vegas, credited new crew chief Steve Addington for his strong qualifying run. Addington was Kyle Busch’s crew chief for Kyle’s win here last year. He was fired in October from Joe Gibbs Racing, and Kurt Busch hired him in December for his team.

“Steve Addington definitely has his game on for this place,” Kurt Busch said.

Only two drivers failed to make the 43-car field, Terry Cook and Casey Mears, who has missed all three of this season’s races.

just as Byrnes’ legs were feeling good again, Texas Rangers pitcher Scott Feldman plunked Byrnes with a pitch in June 2009 that broke his left hand and forced a return to the disabled list. Byrnes then contemplated retirement.

“When you can’t be out there doing what you love, my passion for the game waned,” Byrnes said. “It was real difficult dealing with that.”

Now Byrnes says his legs feel the best they have in more than two years, and he’s happy to be back on the field.

“In a lot of ways I feel like a rookie,” he said. “I’m as excited to be at spring training as I was at the beginning of my career.”

Mariners manager Don Wakamatsu is glad to have him.

“Energy. You love guys that play the game with passion,” he said. “He’s definitely been known for that.”

Byrnes figures he’ll fit in well with a loose Mariners clubhouse.

He had similar environments in Oakland and Arizona, and was such a hit with fans that he landed his own TV show in Arizona — it gave viewers a look into his personal life that lasted two years and earned a local Emmy award.

“I don’t really know how much longer I’m going to play,” Byrnes said. “I don’t really care. For me I’m looking at this as I’m playing for the moment.”

Phillies manager Manuel does it his way A character in the clubhouse, his results have been unquestioned in leading Philadelphia

By Rob Maaddi The Associated Press

CLEARWATER, Fla. — Wherever he goes, Charlie Manuel leaves a trail of laughter.

The Philadelphia Phillies manager can lift anyone’s spirits with a simple greeting.

Whether he’s chatting with reporters, talking to players or sitting in a meeting with coaches, the folksy skipper almost always has something funny to say.

After the Phillies held their first full-squad workout of spring training, Manuel was asked about the speech he gave to his team.

This time, the message was simple.

“Win. That’s what we’re here for,” Manuel told his players.

The Phillies fell two wins short of repeating as World Series champions last year.

They’re trying to become the first NL team to win three straight pennants in 66 years.

Surely, Manuel had more to say than just, “win.” Or, did he save his best stuff for opening day?

“I don’t got no A-material,” said Manuel, entering his sixth season as Phillies manager. “I had a little pad and, hell, I never even looked at it. Whatever comes into my mind, I let it out.

My talks are always different because different stuff comes out. One day it’s lingo, one day it’s hillbilly, one day it’s Northern Virginia. Some of it might be in Japanese. I just let it come out. Whatever you get on that day. Are my speeches inconsistent? Without a doubt.”

A few minutes later, Manuel zoned out while pitching coach Rich Dubee answered some questions. Then, with Dubee still talking, Manuel interrupted to chat with a reporter.

That’s typical Charlie. If something comes to mind, he says it. Doesn’t matter what else is going on around him.

“I think one of the enjoyments of life is being a people person just because I can go somewhere and sit and talk to somebody,” Manuel said. “Where I come from, I could go and sit on the fountain, that’s where people drink a lot of wine and stuff. I could sit there and talk to them, too. Seriously. I mean that. I tell people all the time, people I’m around and people I like, I pull for you. That don’t mean you’re soft or mean or happy.

“I’d like our players to feel the same way, then I could get the

most out of them. If you work for me and I make you happy or I try to make you happy and I pay you good and take care of you, I think that you’ll work better for me. If I can treat you as good as I possibly can, you’ll work harder for me and you’ll play harder for me. If you’re honest and consistent, you need those kind of people around you, too.”

Manuel is very popular in the clubhouse. Veteran players love playing for him and he makes young guys feel comfortable right from the start.

“He’s making me feel like I’m at home,” said outfielder Domonic Brown, a top prospect in his first major league camp.

“He’s a player’s coach. In batting practice, he’s talking to you, helping you out. He’s one of those guys you want to play for.”

Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt, a member of Philadelphia’s 1980 championship team, said Manuel is the “perfect manager” for these Phillies.

“He knows how to let them play. He knows how to crack the whip when he has to,” said Schmidt, in camp as a guest instructor. “He’s more like a father to them. It’s important in today’s game to have the personality he has.”

Manuel was far from the people’s choice when former general manager Ed Wade hired him to replace Larry Bowa after the 2005 season. Most fans wanted Jim Leyland, who was available at the time. The media criticized the move and Manuel was scrutinized intensely. He was unfairly ridiculed for his accent

— a thick Appalachian drawl — and people poked fun at his use of grammar and elocution.

When Pat Gillick replaced Wade as GM after the 2005 season, fans were hoping the new man in charge would bring in his own guy. But Gillick had a strong feeling about Manuel.

“I didn’t think I needed to make a change,” said Gillick, now a senior adviser to GM Ruben Amaro Jr. “The most important thing is not the Xs and the Os. The most important thing is keeping the players in a frame of mind that they want to come to the park, they want to have fun and they want to win every day.

Charlie is able to do that. He’s a player’s manager. They know he wants to win and he has a passion and love for the game and they feel that he wants every one of his players to succeed. He’s very supportive of his players.”

Manuel finally won over the city when he led the Phillies to their second World Series title in ’08. Instead of booing him when he makes a pitching change, fans chant “Charlie! Charlie!

Charlie!” anytime he comes out to argue with an umpire.

Manuel even has his own weekly television show in Philadelphia. Suddenly, that goofy accent is cute and unique. Everybody wants an interview, and Manuel doesn’t mind the attention — though he’s not too fond of the spray makeup some television stations use on guests.

“I knew I wasn’t very handsome, but ...,” Manuel quipped.

Everyone in the room cracked up.

Big Ten talks expansion, but not everyone is on board with the plan

By David Mercer

Red alert! Eastern Washington getting new artificial turf

The Associated Press

By Nicholas K. Geranios

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Big Ten University presidents and athletic directors talk about a handful of factors that they say will decide whether the conference expands.

But listen closely and it sounds like one factor outweighs them all: Money.

The Big Ten generates more than any other conference in the country, thanks in part to its one-of-a-kind Big Ten Network.

And no one in the conference, not even enthusiastic expansion advocates such as Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez, wants to sacrifice a dime of the roughly $22 million each school gets a year.

“You just don’t jump into the league and get a full share of what everyone else in this league has established over time,” Alvarez said. “I think someone has to buy their way into the league.”

Alvarez sees expansion as a path toward the kind of football title game that keeps the SEC and other conferences on national TV and fans’ radar after Thanksgiving, when the Big Ten typically begins a multiweek break before the bowls.

“You take a look at the championship week in December and we’re non-players,” said Alvarez, the former coach who led Wisconsin to football prominence.

“We’re irrelevant.”

Texas, Missouri, Rutgers, Syracuse, Pitt and Notre Dame have all been mentioned as possible targets since the Big Ten announced in December that it was evaluating the possibility of expanding the 11-team conference.

“If you look at the college landscape across the country, look at television contracts that are coming up over the next 5-8 years, this is probably the right time for us to see if there is any value in trying to add a team or teams,” Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith said at the time.

The three big factors Big Ten presidents and athletic directors say any new member would have to bring to the discussion are academic credentials, a strong geographic fit and money.

Stanley Ikenberry was the president at Illinois the last time the Big Ten expanded, adding Penn State in 1990. He says the decision to admit Penn State was driven less by money than by academics — the Nittany Lions were a good scholarly fit as long as they didn’t cost the conference money.

Ikenberry, now back as interim president while Illinois searches for a new leader, acknowledges that this time, money will be a much bigger factor.

Schools around the country are struggling to pay their bills, and no conference pays its members more than the Big Ten, thanks in large part to its TV network.

Neither the Big Ten nor the network discusses its finances publicly and both declined requests for interviews. But according to tax forms the nonprofit conference is required to make public, it generated $217.7 million and paid each school about $18.8 million in 2007, the most recent year for which tax forms are available.

The next year, according to the Sports Business Journal, the new TV network added another $66 million to the pot.

That pushed the per-team payout to about $22 million each, a figure officials from several Big Ten schools confirm remains accurate.

The next most prosperous conference, the SEC, paid its member schools about $11 million each in 2007, according to tax documents.

The Pac 10 — now considering expansion and the creation of a TV network, too — paid its members from about $7 million to $11.5 million in 2007, while the ACC pays from $11.2 to $12.2 million each, the Big 12 about $7 million to $12 million to each school and the Big East $4.5 million or less to its schools.

The moneymaker the SEC has that the Big Ten lacks is a football championship game.

The SEC says it made $14.3 million off its title game last year. But David Carter, an economist at Southern California who studies sports, doubts a Big Ten game would generate that much money, certainly not right away.

“You have to look back at just how embedded the SEC is, their deal with CBS, their incredible tradition,” he said.

The Associated Press

Charles Rex Arbogast / The Associated Press

Big Ten Network studio floor director Jordan Horras organizes the set for the network’s basketball show in Chicago earlier this month. While some in the Big Ten want to expand the conference, others say they fear splitting sizable payouts with new teams.

“We’ve created such an asset in the Big Ten channel. I cannot see our 11 institutions simply saying we’re going to divide our pie up into more pieces from Day 1.”

— Michigan athletic director Bill Martin

Even if it did approach the SEC game, that’s still not enough money to guarantee that existing members wouldn’t give up some money by expanding.

And its clear any new team will, somehow, have to add at least enough money to prevent current members from giving anything up.

“We’ve created such an asset in the Big Ten channel,” Michigan athletic director Bill Martin said, echoing Alvarez. “I cannot see our 11 institutions simply saying we’re going to divide our pie up into more pieces from Day 1.”

Illinois’ athletic director Ron Guenther doesn’t even want a title game. He doubts fans would pay to go to one and then turn around and head to a bowl a couple of weeks later.

Geography, another of the key factors, really boils down to money, too.

First, athletic directors like Guenther say they’d like any addition to be contiguous with the

TRUCK CAMPERS

Ch

Up! r e e

current Big Ten or close to it.

Talking about Texas, Guenther foresees big, expensive travel headaches for sports like soccer and volleyball that already can’t cover their costs.

“You’d have to really restructure the way you’re currently competing,” he said.

The second piece of the geographic consideration is television: Expansion makes more sense if it turns big TV markets like New York or Texas’ big cities into Big Ten markets, both for the Big Ten Network and CBS, ESPN and ABC. Penn State, according to University of Chicago economist Allen Sanderson, hasn’t delivered as much of the East Coast TV audience as the Big Ten would have liked.

“For New Yorkers, they think Penn State is somewhere right around California,” he said.

Few of the schools mentioned as potential Big Ten targets have said anything publicly about the possibility. Notre Dame insists it

isn’t interested and Longhorns AD DeLoss Dodds told The AP this week that Texas hasn’t been approached by the Big Ten — in spite of media reports to the contrary — and is happy in the Big 12.

Alvarez said recently that Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany could make a recommendation to conference presidents on expansion as soon as this summer.

When a decision is made, Carter thinks the Big Ten will expand.

“The allure of being able to extend the footprint of the conference and the potential to generate sizable incremental revenue,” he said, “makes all the sense of the world.”

Ikenberry disagrees. He was a key figure in bringing Penn State on board.

Speaking in the same campus office he occupied when the Nittany Lions joined almost two decades ago, he says that, in addition to protecting their revenue stream, universities have something else to guard.

“There’s a lot of tradition and, as the Big Ten changes, that tradition gets tweaked over time,” he said.

“Wise heads at the end of the day may conclude that, yes, there are a number of theoretical options out there for possible new members of the conference, but, at the end of the day, the Big Ten tradition is better preserved with the status quo.”

CHENEY, Wash. — The nicknames are already flying and Eastern Washington University hasn’t even begun installing its new artificial turf.

The Slaughterhouse. The Blood Rug. The Bordello Bowl.

Athletic director Bill Chaves was seeking attention last month and sure got it when he announced that the turf would be red.

“The uniqueness of the red field was able to generate an amazing amount of publicity,” Chaves said.

It also has generated donations. Michael Roos, an Eastern Washington alumnus who is a lineman for the NFL’s Tennessee Titans, kicked the drive off with a $500,000 donation.

ESPN broadcaster Colin Cowherd, also an EWU graduate, threw in $50,000.

Money continues to pour in toward the $1 million needed to roll out the red carpet on Sept.

18 against Montana.

Eastern Washington, located in this suburb outside Spokane, has long been a successful FCS program in the Big Sky Conference. But the Eagles have never gotten much national recognition, or even that much local attention. Attendance is usually around 5,000 for football games at Woodward Field, a tiny stadium on the edge of town that is surrounded by wheat fields.

The best-known artificial turf in the nation is the blue field at Boise State, and Chaves was visiting that campus last July when the red light bulb went off in his head.

“It was the middle of July and people were coming with cameras,” Chaves said. “It was like a scene out of ‘Field of Dreams.’

You lay it down and people will come.”

The battered natural grass at Woodward Field was due to be replaced by artificial turf.

Chaves saw no reason the field couldn’t reflect the team’s red and white colors.

Artificial turf comes in many colors, but typically they are used in end zones and midfield logos. Boise State has been the notable exception since Georgia-based FieldTurf laid down the Broncos’ all-blue field 23 years ago, and the University of New Haven followed suit with blue turf last year.

FieldTurf, the biggest supplier of artificial turf, is talking to a couple of colleges about colored turf, but said there is no rush

to use colors other than green.

Company spokesman John Belanger, who declined to name the schools because the deals were not complete, says that using different colors does not appear to hurt performance.

If fundraising remains on track, Eastern will begin installing its red turf in June and play its first game on the field against archrival Montana on Sept. 18.

The concept isn’t popular in the Grizzlies’ hometown. The Missoulian newspaper editorialized for a ban on non-green turf.

“We are hidebound traditionalists,” the editorial said. “And we know that red fades in the sun. What is EWU going to do when faced with a pink football field? And what if there is a major injury on the field? How will we see how much blood the player lost?”

Chaves said he has been assured the turf will not fade to pink, although it will turn a lighter shade of red over time.

The Big Sky Conference has no objections.

“Just as long as the field remains regulation size we see no problem,” said Tanner Gooch, a league spokesman in Salt Lake City.

Boosters say the red turf is actually a green idea. Replacing the natural grass will allow EWU to save an estimated 300,000 gallons of water per year.

There are other issues to consider. Eastern has made the FCS playoffs four times in the past six years, and nobody wants a strange field to mess with that record of success. There’s also a question of how the red will appear on television.

Will the players in red jerseys get lost in the background?

Will the brown football blend in when it is thrown? Will uniforms get red stains?

Good questions all, with no immediate answers. But Chaves is motivated by a desire to get more fans in the seats.

“If it takes something unique to get folks out of Spokane, this might be the spur that gets them out there,” he said.

Eastern football coach Beau Baldwin sees one important advantage in the red rug.

“It’s huge for recruiting because potential student-athletes can see the progress we are making and the positive direction of our program,” he said. “It’s bound to bring more exposure.”

Less room for high schoolers at COCC Students struggle to get into classes as enrollment swells

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

It’s no big secret that Central Oregon Community College is overcrowded.

But the crowding is an issue not just for COCC students, but also for high school students looking to get a leg up and earn some college credits during the school day.

While administrators say the advanced course work helps keep students engaged and in-

terested in learning, the number of Bend-La Pine students taking classes at COCC is down this year, and some administrators believe overcrowding at the college is to blame.

In Redmond, students can earn an advanced diploma that proves college readiness by taking at least nine COCC credits each term and completing at least 27 college credits, earning C grades or better. Students can take classes at the

Redmond or Bend campus or online.

Bend-La Pine Schools doesn’t offer an advanced diploma like Redmond, but the district does allow students to take classes at COCC under the Expanded Options program.

But with COCC’s enrollment increasing more than 45 percent over the past two years, getting a spot in the classes students want and need at a time that works with their high school schedules

is getting more difficult.

“My sense is the students who meet the timelines, who meet application deadlines and get their testing done tend to be in better shape than those that are waiting or delaying,” said Bend High counselor Gary Whitley.

“In the past when numbers were low it was not a problem to find a class.”

That’s changed.

During fall 2009, Chief Academic Officer Vicki Van Buren said, 42 students took classes at COCC. They earned 33 high school credits and 227 college

quarter credits during that time.

In the winter, 35 students earned 26 high school credits and 183 college credits.

That’s fewer than in fall and winter of 2008, when 55 students and 40 students took courses at COCC, respectively, and BendLa Pine Schools counselors believe the numbers may be down because of overcrowding at COCC. Debbie McKeown, a counselor at Summit, has seen fewer students get into the classes they want and need at COCC. See COCC / D7

Special Olympics start with a splash

In Redmond, federal grant could lead to smaller water bills

By Diane S.W. Lee The Bulletin

Redmond residents could see their water bills shrink a little thanks to a $671,933 federal grant for five proposed renewable-energy projects.

“It means we can do some projects that otherwise may cost the public, which we can do on the federal dime,” said City Manager David Brandt. “To us, it is always a savings.”

The grant will be used to replace outdated equipment with more energy-efficient machinery — a move projected to save the city $37,046 annually in energy costs. Brandt said rate payers may benefit in lower water bills.

“All the individual equipment and improvements we are making are all designed to save energy, and by doing that we of course don’t have to pay for that energy, and we can pass that savings to the rate payer,” Brandt said.

The projects, funded through the federal economic stimulus bill, are anticipated to create a total of 24 new jobs in design engineering, manufacturing and electrical construction fields in the Redmond area, according to Shannon Taylor, Redmond’s Wastewater Division manager.

Kohl’s prepares for its grand opening in Bend

Bend Parkway

Dresses, purses, shoes, slacks, towels, toys, vacuums and even a picnic set — they’re among the diverse items found in Bend’s new Kohl’s store, which managers tout as a one-stop shop.

Set to open Sunday at 9 a.m. in Bend River Promenade — and fully staffed with 120 new full- and part-time employees — Central Oregon’s newest department store is geared to meet the needs of men and women alike, said Sonny Pooni, Kohl’s district manager for Oregon and Vancouver, Wash. In particular, however, Kohl’s targets the busy woman, Pooni said. “(We have) anything she might need — anything besides milk, I guess,” he said.

On the surface, Bend’s Kohl’s appears like many other department stores: Walk inside, and you’re immediately met with racks of the newest fashions for teens and a counter filled with men’s and women’s jewelry ranging from cross-shaped necklaces to Bulova watches.

The 64,000-square-foot store has Levi’s jeans for men and Lee Jeans for women. It has toys for toddlers, video games and other electronics for older children and plenty of other options for adults.

A student conflict that raised questions about the relationship between free speech on campus and a college’s code of conduct ended suddenly Friday after Central Oregon Community College administrators dismissed a complaint against the student newspaper’s editor-in-chief.

The complaint, which stemmed from an editorial that criticized the student council, was dismissed Friday evening, hours after an informal hearing examining the issue.

Don Iler, 25, the editor-in-chief of The Broadside, wrote two Feb. 3 editorials critical of the Associated Students of Central Oregon Community College, the school’s student council. The editorials appeared below a header titled “news” instead of “voices,” which is the name of the newspaper’s editorial page, which Iler said was an “egregious error.”

The back of the store — lit with high-efficiency lighting to help make this Kohl’s meet Leadership in Energy and Environmen-

tal Design standards — is stuffed with shoes, towels, bed spreads, picture frames, candles and a temporary station built to sign customers up for Kohl’s charge cards. Pooni and Curry said customers who qualify for a card will receive a 20 percent discount off everything in the store for about the next 30 days.

Those who don’t qualify will receive 15 percent off, Pooni said.

Bend isn’t alone in receiving a new Kohl’s. Five other stores are opening nationally in March, with more coming in May. Pooni said Kohl’s has opened 131 stores during the last two years, bringing the Menomonee Falls, Wis.-

based company’s store count to 1,067.

That’s only partially telling of Kohl’s success. While most businesses’ sales shrank during the recession, Kohl’s boomed.

In its quarterly financial report, released Thursday, Kohl’s announced its fourth quarter net income rose by 28 percent compared with last year, from $336 million to $431 million. For all of 2009, net income was $991 million, compared with $885 million in 2008.

Correction In a story headlined “Nurse sues doctor over lockup; hospital settles,” which appeared Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2010, on Page C1, it was stated that “Belinda Hallcraft” was the maiden name of “Belinda Sue Whipp.”

In fact, they are two separate people. Belinda Sue Whipp sued St. Charles Bend and two doctors alleging she was unlawfully held in a mental health facility.

Brenda Hallcraft sued Deschutes County to have her concealed weapons permit reinstated.

Statements made in the story in connection with “Whipp” relate only to Whipp and not to Hallcraft. Statements made in the story in connection with “Hallcraft” relate only to Hallcraft and not to Whipp.

Eugene looking for places for homeless to camp

By Edward Russo The Register-Guard

EUGENE — Eugene businesswoman Sue Scott has let homeless people live in trailers and motor homes on her property for two years. And she hasn’t regretted a minute of it.

In fact, she recommends that other business owners do the same thing. “I had all the fears that most people do,� she said. “What about the trash that may be left behind? What about the old car that may be left? And all that stuff. But I said OK. And you know what? I’m glad I did.�

Scott, an owner of Scott & Sons Towing, is one of 12 Eugene business owners who participate in the city’s homeless vehicle camping program.

And with more people living on Eugene streets, the city and St. Vincent de Paul are looking for more people like Scott business or property owners willing to let homeless people camp in vehicles on their land.

St. Vincent de Paul oversees different vehicle camping programs — one for homeless people with children and one for childless people.

The agency manages 15 places in Eugene and one in Springfield for families with children. Most of the spaces are at churches. Only nine of the Eugene spots are currently occupied.

But the demand by people without children for vehicle camping spots is much greater.

St. Vincent de Paul manages 21 locations where vehicle camping is allowed for childless couples or individuals. However, the agency has a waiting list with 50 to 60 groups of homeless people who need a place to go. “I need more spots,� said Keith Heath of St. Vincent de Paul, who manages the vehicle camping program for people without children.

A count of homeless people in Lane County taken last month found 3,971 people who did not have housing, a 50 percent jump over the number of homeless people counted last year.

The homeless people were living in temporary shelters, or sleeping in cars, under bridges and in other areas.

Jury sides with doctor in confinement lawsuit A Deschutes County Circuit Court jury determined Friday that a Bend doctor did not act improperly when she placed a former St. Charles Bend nurse on a psychiatric hold in 2006.

The nurse, Belinda Whipp, sued the hospital and two doctors, saying she was “unlawfully confined� at the Sage View residential psychiatric facility because the doctors believed she was suicidal. The hospital settled with Whipp, and her case against Dr. William Larry Campbell was dismissed by a judge.

After a four-day trial, the jury reached its verdict in Whipp’s case against Dr. Helenka Marcinek after about an hour of deliberation, said Gordon Welborn, Marcinek’s attorney. “The issues in the case dealt with threats of suicide, and I think the evidence we presented shows (doctors) have to take suicide threats very seriously,� Welborn said. “The evidence showed that in this case, her threats were promptly and appropriately dealt with by St. Charles and Dr. Marcinek.�

Whipp’s attorney, Thomas Doyle, could not be reached for comment Friday.

ReStore set to open in La Pine on Friday The Habitat for Humanity ReStore is opening a new location at 52684 U.S. Highway 97 in La Pine on Friday.

Products are resold to the public at about half the retail cost.

State OKs $9M in funding for marine mammal center

By Lori Toblas The Oregonian

NEWPORT — The Hatfield Marine Science Center just got one step closer to realizing its dream of a new Marine Mammal/Marine Genomics Center.

Both legislative chambers have unanimously passed House Bill 3643, which shifts $9 million from the Oregon State University’s capital construction budget to the marine mammal project.

Assuming Gov. Ted Kulongoski signs the bill, researchers at Hatfield hope that amount will be enough to win $16 million in federal funding from the National Institute of Standards and Technology, also called NIST. Combined, that would be $25 million, enough to build the new center. “This would establish a unique center, a university-based center for the study of marine mammals,� said Scott Baker, associate director of the Marine Mammal Institute. “It would be the largest

in the U.S. “It will give us the unique capacity to advance technology for the study of and protection of marine mammals, including satellite tagging, advanced studies of life history and analyses of genetics diversity.�

Genomics is working with genes but at the level of an entire genome. “Where we once would have looked at three or four genes, now we can look at thousands in each individual,� Baker said.

The Hatfield Center first applied for funding from NIST about three years ago and ranked in the top seven out of 93 proposals, but only two were funded. The center tried again in 2009 and scored among the top proposals, but the state failed to come up with the necessary matching funds. “When the university came back and showed me the notes that NIST put on their proposal

it was very, very striking,� said Rep. Jean Cowan, D-Newport, who sponsored the bill. “It said things like the ‘project was scientifically and technically excellent’ and that the research ‘plays to the current strengths of the OSU faculty and the greater research community housed at Hatfield Marine Science Center.’ But they also noted that cost share funding had not been secured. That was the real challenge.�

The Coastal Caucus, made up of nine legislative members in the House and Senate with districts on the coast, helped push the bill through, Cowan said.

If the project is completed, it would add about 100 new faculty and staff at Hatfield and bring $9 million to $15 million to Oregon’s economy, according to OSU President Ed Ray. “As an economist, I look at that as a pretty good deal. The leadership of the Coastal Caucus in securing the funding has been invaluable.�

Freed man sues over murder convictions PORTLAND — A man released after spending a decade in prison for the killings of three people has filed lawsuits seeking $21.5 million from Oregon and Polk County officials for wrongful conviction and imprisonment.

The suits filed Friday by 43year-old Scott Cannon came almost 10 years after he was convicted of killing Jason Kinser, Suzan Osborne and Celesta Graves near Salem.

A lawsuit filed in federal court in Portland seeks $20 million from Polk County and several

individuals. A state court suit seeks $1.5 million from the state of Oregon.

Cannon has maintained he is innocent.

Ballistics tests used to convict him were later discredited, and prosecutors dropped plans for a new trial after finding that evidence had been destroyed.

Portland man arrested in hit and run case ASTORIA — A Portland driver has been arraigned on accusations he intentionally struck a bicyclist on U.S. Highway 101 south of Seaside.

Stephan Joseph Fox is in the

Clatsop County Jail on charges of assault, attempted murder and felony hit and run. Bail has been set at $250,000.

Prosecutor Ron Brown says the 23-year-old “just took off� after hitting Seaside chiropractor Seth Goldstein in November.

Authorities who responded to the crash found Fox in the woods after locating his abandoned truck.

Brown says Fox had been getting treatment for “mental issues� in the months since the crash.

Goldstein, meanwhile, has been receiving physical therapy.

Brown says the cyclist will likely need it for years to come. — From wire reports

Bridget McGowan died at the scene Thursday night.

The state medical examiner’s office said Friday that an autopsy shows her fatal injuries were consistent with being run over by a vehicle.

Lt. Gregg Hastings says investigators have confirmed

there was an earlier argument involving McGowan and her 22year-old daughter, who had been visiting at a nearby cabin rented

by McGowan.

Hastings says police have not confirmed a witness report that the woman may have fallen from a pickup prior to her death.

A white Dodge pickup driven by the woman’s daughter was later stopped by police. Hastings says both the daughter and a boyfriend who was with her are cooperating with the investigation.

Larger claims push the insurer to increase its reserves New York Times News Service

Umpqua Bank said Friday that it acquired the banking operations of Tacoma, Wash.based Rainier Pacific Bank in a purchase and assumption agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., the second FDIC-assisted transaction for Umpqua Bank this year following its Jan. 22 acquisition of Seattle-based EvergreenBank.

As of Dec. 31, Rainier Pacific Bank had $718 million in assets and $446 million in deposits, including approximately $327 million of core deposits.

Friday’s acquisition announcement follows a decision by the Washington Department of Financial Institutions to close Rainier Pacific Bank and have the FDIC accept the receivership. Umpqua Bank participated in a competitive bid process with the FDIC. Earlier Friday, regulators also shut down Carson River Community Bank in Carson City, Nev. Its deposits will be assumed by Reno, Nev.based Heritage Bank of Nevada. Friday’s closures were the 21st and 22nd this year of federally insured banks.

Deal in place to sell fast-food chains

The American International Group said on Friday that it lost about $11 billion last year, surprising analysts and showing the long-term risks inherent in the types of large, complex insurance coverage that the company once pioneered.

To increase its reserves to pay future claims, the company set aside $2.7 billion on a pretax basis, accounting for a big portion of its loss. This indicates that AIG is experiencing significantly larger claims than

it expected when it sold the insurance, most of it more than seven years ago, long before its government rescue in late 2008.

Fitch Ratings responded by putting the company’s property and casualty subsidiaries on a negative watch for their financial strength ratings. Financial strength ratings are indicators of an insurer’s ability to pay claims, and are separate from credit ratings.

Shares of AIG fell nearly 10 percent Friday, or $2.74, to close at $24.77.

Officials of AIG said claims were growing faster than reserves in just two lines of insurance and emphasized that it still had ample resources overall to pay claims.

AIG’s chief executive, Robert Benmosche, said in a statement that despite the losses, “Our team has made great progress during the year in executing our strategic restructuring plan.” The plan involves shrinking the sprawling company to a more manageable size, and generating money to repay the federal government.

A home is advertised for sale in January in Alameda, Calif. Home sales in the West grew slightly last month from sales in January 2009, but the median price fell 6 percent.

LOS ANGELES — Home sales inched about 3 percent higher in the Western region of the country last month, as homebuyers set out to take advantage of temporary government tax incentives and lock in still-low mortgage interest rates.

The modest annual increase benefited from an easy comparison with January 2009 sales, which cratered in the wake of the U.S. financial crisis.

Nationally, sales rose 7 percent from January last year, without adjusting for seasonal factors, the National Association of Realtors said Friday. The median price was flat at $164,700.

In the West, the median price fell by nearly 6 percent to $203,400.

Home sales surged across the 13state region for much of last year, powered largely by homebuyers and investors snapping up bankowned properties in California, Arizona and Nevada.

Sales fell nationally around 33 percent from December and by nearly a quarter in the West, however.

“Sales have been dropping … but they’re not dropping as quickly as they have been in the rest of the U.S.,” said Celia Chen, senior direc-

tor at Moody’s Economy.com.

Some of that decline was likely seasonal, but also a decline in the number of buyers racing to qualify for an $8,000 first-time homebuyer tax credit. Lawmakers ultimately extended the deadline to April 30 and added a $6,500 incentive for repeat buyers, taking some of the urgency out of the dealmaking.

Another factor for the sequential dip in sales was the inventory of homes for sale has been shrinking.

The supply of homes on the market in the West fell in January to 6.3 months from 8.7 months a year earlier, according to the National Association of Realtors.

Throughout the West, the supply of homes under $100,000 stood at just over three months in January; it was around five months for homes below $250,000.

Still, sales improved in January across many major Western metros, according to the AP-Re/Max report, which tallies all home sales in the metropolitan statistical areas. The report counts sales filed by all real estate agents, regardless of company affiliation.

Eight cities registered annual sales increases last month: Honolulu, Seattle, Albuquerque, N.M., Portland, Phoenix, Boise, Idaho, Las Vegas and Billings, Mont.

Some highlights from the region Steepest price drop: The median home sales price in Las Vegas tumbled 20 percent from a year ago to $120,000 as homebuyers continued to snap up discounted bank-owned properties.

Sales jumped 20 percent from last year.

Sharpest price gain: San Francisco, where the median price posted an annual increase of about 25 percent to $410,000.

AIG said it was advised to increase reserves by its own actuaries and outside consultants after a thorough year-end review. A study last November by the Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. research firm, which found a big shortfall in AIG’s reserves for its property and casualty businesses.

Those businesses have been renamed Chartis and are expected to be the backbone of the company after its revamping. The company said the additional reserves were all for Chartis.

CKE Restaurants Inc., parent of fast-food restaurant chains Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s, said Friday that it would be bought by a private equity firm for $619 million. Thomas H. Lee Partners will acquire the Carpinteria, Calif., company for about $928 million while assuming about $309 million in net debt.

The Boston-based private equity firm will offer CKE shareholders a 24 percent premium off Thursday’s closing price, giving them $11.05 in cash for each share. The CKE deal is expected to close in the second quarter of this year if it is approved by shareholders and regulators. But CKE will accept other acquisition proposals until April 6.

The insurer’s 2009 result was just a fraction of the recordbreaking loss of $100 billion that it reported for 2008, which led to the government bailout.

Much of last year’s loss came from a fourth-quarter charge taken to reflect a restructuring of its bailout — a one-time charge that AIG has been warning about for months. As part of a debt-for-equity swap with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the company removed part of its Fed loan as an asset on its balance sheet, producing a pretax charge of $5.2 billion.

That charge was not connected with the company’s core insurance operations.

Oregon firm recalls Yaquina Bay oysters Oregon Oyster Farms has issued a product recall involving oyster meat and oysters in the shell harvested this month from Yaquina Bay. Yaquina Bay oysters have been distributed in five Oregon counties: Lincoln, Lane, Linn, Marion and Multnomah. They are also distributed through one wholesale account in Oregon and at various retail stores and restaurants.

The Oregon Department of Agriculture said Friday the recall was prompted by reports of illnesses. Consumption of the oysters may cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malaise, abdominal pain, headache and fever.

Biggest sales gain: Sales in Honolulu jumped about 65 percent from a year ago. The metro’s median home price was essentially flat from a year ago at $418,500.

Largest sales decline: Denver saw sales drop about 14 percent from January 2009. The median sale price in that time, however, surged 23 percent to $195,000.

Housing still shows weakness WASHINGTON — Sales of previously owned homes plunged in January to their lowest level since summer, providing fresh evidence that high unemployment and tight lending standards are outweighing the government’s attempts to prop up the market.

The results, the weakest since June, were far worse than forecast and suggest the housing recovery will sputter without government support. The Obama administration has spent billions to keep mortgage rates low and give buyers tax breaks, but both programs are set to end this spring.

The housing report was another sign that consumers still aren’t feeling comfortable making sizable purchases, as jobs remain scarce.

A bill passed by the Oregon Legislature may provide a bit more clarity to the federal home loan modification process if it is signed by Gov. Ted Kulongoski.

House Bill 3610, which was approved unanimously earlier this week by both the Oregon House and Senate, would require mortgage trustees to file an affidavit with the county before a foreclosure, affirming that they have explained to the homeowner in detail why the homeowner’s loan modification application was IN THE denied.

LEGISLATURE The proposed law builds off Senate Bill 628, passed last year, which requires mortgage trustees to file an affidavit affirming that they have offered to meet with a homeowner, either in person or over the phone, to discuss a loan modification.

“What (HB 3610) does is add new requirements to the lender, that if they do deny a load modification, they have to explain how they calculated that to the homeowner,” said Jon Bartholomew, a policy advocate for the Oregon State Public Interest Research Group in Portland.

“The goal is to get the lenders to be a lot more upfront and transparent about the process, to make sure the homeowners have a little more shot in correcting any errors in the calculation,” Bartholomew said.

HEALTH CARE DEBATE

GE’s Olympics campaign is more about politics than it is selling products

By John Schmid Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

MILWAUKEE — One of the most prominent advertisers during the Winter Olympics is hawking goods that few households will ever need: handheld ultrasound imaging equipment or nationwide computer networks for medical records.

The prime-time television ads by GE Healthcare, the medical technologies arm of General Electric Co., show vignettes with doctors, patients and hospital technology that coincide with the national debate over health care reform.

And the political timing is hardly a coincidence, according to media and industry analysts. Since he took over as chief executive of GE Healthcare in 2008, John Dineen has made no secret that he wants to influence Washington’s policies — not least because federal spending caps on imaging reimbursements hit hard at GE’s diagnostic imaging group in Waukesha, Wis., which laid off several hundred workers over the past two years.

“Companies like GE want to position themselves as good guys who are helping save lives, not bad guys who are driving up costs,” said Andy Larsen, a partner at the Milwaukee-based Boelter & Lincoln advertising agency.

The ads, replete with spectacular scenery and special effects, represent GE Healthcare’s largestever advertising campaign targeted at a consumer audience, said Brian Johnson, head of advertising for GE Healthcare. Neither Johnson nor GE spokesmen were willing to say how much was spent on the campaign.

Continued from D3 “The whole idea is to show how we are changing the conversation about health care, which typically has been negative, to one that’s more optimistic, one with more possibilities,” Johnson said in an interview from Vancouver, British Columbia.

GE’s ads contrast sharply with other fare during mega-sports events, including the Super Bowl, which prominently featured Doritos.

Other big advertisers for the Olympics included a slew of automakers, including scandal-plagued Toyota, as well as Coca-Cola, credit card companies, McDonald’s and the U.S. Census.

One thing is clear, however.

GE managed to reach a large audience.

Audience ratings for NBC’s coverage of the Olympics have been strong. A week ago, Fox’s “American Idol” finished second in its time period for the first time ever, with 18.63 million viewers vs.

30.1 million for the Vancouver games, Larsen said, citing data from Nielsen Media Research.

On some nights, NBC’s Olympics drew more viewers than Fox, CBS and ABC combined, Larsen said.

GE has said it will invest $6 billion by 2015 in new systems and services designed to drive down costs while expanding access and improving quality. GE Healthcare, which operates globally, said rich and poor nations alike are seeking the same broad objectives.

A Manhattan ad agency, BBDO New York, created the ads.

The one titled “Take a Look” shows a sequence of ancient and often poor villages, starting with the Bronze Age, where doctors want to “take a look” at a young patient. It’s not until the episodes reach a modern clinic, however, that a doctor pulls out a GE Vscan pocket-sized ultrasound to begin a diagnosis.

Engineers in Wisconsin helped develop the V-scan (“roughly the size of a smart phone,” according to GE) although it was largely produced in Europe, a GE spokesman said.

The ad titled “Stadium” showcases other Wisconsin technology in an ad meant to entertain.

A patient lies on an operating table on the 50-yard line of a American stadium packed with cheering fans while surgeons and doctors run out of the tunnel as the announcer shouts their names (“He puts the ‘rad’ in radiology!”).

The anesthesia equipment is built in Madison, Wis., and the monitoring equipment comes from Waukesha, Johnson said.

“The products are in there as supporting cast members,” Johnson said.

An ad touting electronic medical records, called “Doctors,” is meant to show gains in efficiency from networks that collect all of a patients’ medical history in one place. GE’s medical information systems business is located in Barrington, Ill. GE kept its global headquarters for medical systems in Waukesha until 2004, when it moved to London, although it kept much of its research and production in southeastern Wisconsin.

GE Healthcare still derives 60 percent of its $17 billion in annual sales from operations based around metro Milwaukee.

Continued from D3 HB 3610 also requires mortgage trustees to file the new affidavit no later than five days before the foreclosure sale.

Bartholomew said that should prevent mortgage trustees and lenders from filing the affidavits either the day of the foreclosure sale or sometimes afterward, as has been the case in several instances he is aware of, he said.

Rep. Judy Stiegler, DBend, said the House bill essentially fine-tuned the previous Senate bill, adding that the new filing deadline should provide the biggest difference.

“With the old bill, you could file at the time of sale, so a lot of good that did,” Stiegler said.

Bartholomew said homeowners could contest a foreclosure sale if the new affidavit is filed within five days of the foreclosure sale.

However, Jeff Sageser, with the Deschutes County Clerk’s Office, said that may happen in a few initial instances once the law takes effect, but the new affidavit requirement isn’t likely to represent a substantial hindrance to trustees and lenders seeking foreclosure.

“They may miss a few out of the blocks, but will it happen very much? Probably not,” Sageser said, referring

to lenders who might miss the new filing deadline.

HB 3610 was sponsored by Rep. Bill Garrard, R-Klamath Falls. Messages left Friday for Garrard were not immediately returned.

Paul Cosgrove, a lobbyist for the Oregon Financial Services Association, said his members had a few technical concerns about the bill but that most of them were resolved.

“We had some concerns, but we certainly didn’t oppose it,” Cosgrove said.

Kulongoski’s office did not return a call for comment on whether he’ll sign the bill. If signed, the bill would take effect in early June.

Through January, more than 1.3 million homeowners nationally have applied for a home loan modification as part of the Obama administration’s Home Affordability Modification Program. But only 116,000 of those applications have resulted in permanent loan modifications, according to federal data released this week.

The number of loans permanently modified in Oregon through January was 1,469, with 166 of those in Deschutes County. Data for Jefferson and Crook counties are unavailable.

Homeowners who enroll in the program must successfully complete a three-month trial payment period, among other requirements, to qualify for a permanent loan modification.

Redmond board hides from public

H

as the Redmond School Board learned nothing from the 2009 Brown School embarrassment?

Last year, district officials decided to close the school,

officially known as the Edwin Brown Alternative High School.

There were good reasons for doing so, including the high and unnecessary cost of keeping it open. But the district did a terrible job of communicating its decision with those who’d be affected, prompting a lawsuit by the teachers union.

The suit was little more than a legal temper tantrum. But the rushed closure process would have irritated almost anyone, as the district all but acknowledged in a joint statement announcing a settlement: “The parties have also worked together to improve their communication and working relationship, and the District has increased the openness of its decisionmaking process.”

On Thursday, the school board honored this newfound commitment to openness and communication by conspiring to hide district business from the public. This business includes some things the public should see, including the district’s handling of a pair of union grievances demanding more paid sick and personal time in the middle of a crippling budget crisis. Instead, board members wondered aloud whether they’d be able to keep their discussions secret by using a phone tree. Because, you know, they wouldn’t want to lose control of the debate.

Over the past year or so, the Redmond School District has put together quite an “openness” résumé.

There was the Brown School rush job, of course, and now the hide-the-debate scheming. And in between, district officials discovered a $900,000 math blunder that cost the average taxpayer $50 last year — and “forgot” to mention it to the public for months.

The next time the school board asks for money, Redmond taxpayers should be just as open with their wallets as the board itself has been with the public’s business.

In fact, taxpayers have a chance to say “enough” right now. The $110 mil-

Taxpayers have a chance to say “enough” right now. The $110 million bond voters approved in 2008 will more than cover the cost of the projects for which it was designed.

The district could use the leftover money ... to pay for other capital projects. Alternatively, it could return it to the public by cutting their taxes. Redmond residents should demand the tax cut. lion bond voters approved in 2008 will more than cover the cost of the projects for which it was designed. The district could use the leftover money — about $7 million — to pay for other capital projects. Alternatively, it could return it to the public by cutting their taxes. Redmond residents should demand the tax cut.

FROM THE ARCHIVES Editor’s note: The following editorial, which appeared on Feb. 10, 1979, does not necessarily reflect the views of The Bulletin’s editorial board today.

At last Senator John Stennis, a Mississippi Democrat who is one of Congress’s acknowledged experts on this country’s defense system, rose on the Senate floor recently and said something which needed saying.

The all-volunteer armed forces concept, started six years ago as the answer to the country’s military needs, is not working. The armed forces need a draft system, he said, although a different system than it had seven years ago. And he’s right.

The trouble is that military service is becoming exceedingly complex. It’s easy to train truck and tank drivers. It isn’t even too difficult to train airplane pilots, particularly since the airlines will hire, at

high pay, those who leave the service after a few years. But it’s almost impossible for the military to get persons who will make good maintenance people for computers and to hold on to them after an initial few months of service. The people the armed forces need, in other words, simply are not volunteering in sufficient numbers to meet the needs.

To meet those needs Stennis proposes a truly universal draft, with no exemptions excepting for those unable to meet physical or mental standards of the armed forces. Gone would be the occupational and student deferments of the past. If your number came up you’d go for two or three years.

This doesn’t mean the armed forces would keep young men and women forever. It simply means the manpower pool available to the armed forces would be broadened to include those persons whose training and abilities are sorely needed. The all volunteer service concept is not providing them all now.

My Nickel’s Worth Tea Party revival

Stalinism and labor camps, and in Iran to a hectoring theocracy not above rigging elections to hold power. The American Revolution was different. It induced a system that has brought us — not always smoothly — from a rule by a small, white-male clique 200 years ago, to the present heterogeneous, raucous, still far from perfect society.

Whether or not Sarah Palin understands the choice of words regarding her revolution statement I will leave to the deep thinkers of The Bulletin.

George Taylor Gilchrist

I believe it is time for another tea party, now that King George III and his followers have apparently been reincarnated and moved to Washington, D.C. The recent briberies that have given us the “Louisiana Purchase” and the “Corn Caper” were accepted by our Oregon senators without a whimper.

I think they were very wrong. Shame on them. Please stop lying to us. Tell us the truth. We should consider not reelecting any incumbent because Washington seems to change good men and women.

Teacher demands I see the teachers are negotiating for more sick leave (The Bulletin, Feb. 13).

Their current 80 hours is not enough because with the new four-day work week, it doesn’t add up to 10 days per year; that would require 95 hours. That’s 10 days out of 164 work days. I’d state the obvious “almost nobody gets sick that much,” but for teachers, these aren’t really “sick” days, but “I don’t feel like going to work today” days. And of course, if they don’t use them, they can bank them, which adds to their time in-service for retirement.

Most of the people I know are dealing with a tough economy and having to do their part to “suck it up” a bit to keep their companies running and their fellow workers employed. Our teachers, and other government employees, have nice contracts with special benefits, especially like defined benefit pension plans. That means when the world gets tough they don’t have to worry because the taxpayers are required to make up the shortfall if their benefits are threatened. We’ll have tax measures telling us

What revolution means Recently at a Tennessee Tea Party gathering for $549 per plate, and again a few days ago in Redding, Calif., Sarah Palin, the featured speaker, described her movement as a revolution.

Let’s analyze the results of a revolution. It can be almost magical like the uprising in Czechoslovakia called a Velvet Revolution in November 1989, or things can get ugly, as in the bloody overthrow of Nicolae Ceausescu in Romania a month later.

The important thing to remember about revolutionary fervor and upheaval is it can last only so long.

Unless revolution includes democracy — with its mechanism for continuous evolution — revolutionary spirit can too easily get highjacked.

The French, Russian and Iranian revolutions were true moments of complete change.

In France, revolution led to the guillotine and then Napoleon, in Russia to

we need to prevent a reduction in programs for the kids or other important governmental services, but aren’t we really being asked to prop up budgets that are stretched because of these overly generous benefits? I say it’s time for our teachers and other service employees to get real and stop asking for more when everyone else is doing with less.

Steve Austin Redmond

Union ‘ethics’ Quite a long time ago, maybe in the ’60s, it was determined that those workers who had some health problems should not be punished for the necessity to take time off. OK, this is a reasonable, compassionate response to the workers of America. And so, the workers unions got together and decided that every union worker should be given x number of “sick days” with pay. Sounds reasonable, right?

Somehow, though, it has evolved to “we want compensation for every day that we are NOT sick!” In other words, we won’t punish those who are ill, but let’s reward those who are not ill. So now we have the accumulated “sick days.” “I think I’ll take one of my sick days on Friday.” What does this really mean? In my opinion, it means that because I didn’t take any sick days, I am entitled to what the union says I’m entitled to.

Come on, folks, can we just be honest here and tell it like it is? “I want to be paid for not working!” Are the teachers who are demanding more “sick days” sending the message that you want to be sent to our children? Is this “modern day ethics?”

Public, rules were ignored in motor ban at Waldo Lake

By Paul Donheffner Bulletin guest columnist

I

t’s time for some truth about the decision to ban motors on Waldo Lake.

As the former state marine director, I think the public deserves to know how this decision was really made. The ban on motorized boats was decided long before the Marine Board met on Jan. 14.

I was called to a meeting with the governor’s office on Aug. 19, 2009, and told

by Michael Carrier, the governor’s natural resource adviser, that “the governor wants the Marine Board to ban motors on Waldo, as soon as possible.”

Since our agency had opposed the Forest Service proposed bans for years, and had in fact appealed the most recent Forest Service decision to ban, I asked if we could meet with the governor to discuss this. Carrier got very angry and yelled at me in terms that made it clear a meeting with the governor was out of the question.

I was told in plain terms to get it done, no questions asked, and include float planes.

I asked if the governor would be sending us a letter asking to initiate rulemaking. I thought Carrier would explode. He also brushed off the inconsistency between the state law that says 10 miles per hour, and a proposed rule than says no motors.

It didn’t matter. The fix was on, from that minute forward. It was a troubling meeting, but I got it.

Immediately, the Department of Justice was directed by Carrier to prepare the memorandum of understanding that held the board’s feet to the fire to adopt the rule. The MOU dictated the verbatim rule language we had to use. To suggest that the agency was free to consider public input and make a decision based on the facts is a joke. This deal was done; there was absolutely no wiggle room once the MOU was final. The DOJ even edited the final staff report to be sure it was on script.

Next, I had to conduct two public hearings and ask for public comments on the “proposed” rule. This was the biggest

IN MY VIEW charade I’ve ever had to carry out in my public life. Good citizens spent time and energy to convey their sincere heartfelt input for and against, but to no avail.

They couldn’t change a process that was already decided. I had many sleepless nights twisting over this scenario, which went against everything I’ve ever worked for. It was a failure of the democratic rulemaking process and Oregon’s administrative rule process. The people that feel good about the board’s decision to ban motors should take pause, knowing they won for the wrong reasons. The governor’s goal justified the means, no matter what the public or facts might tell you.

Another truth is that everyone loves Waldo Lake. Whether you like to paddle, sail, hike or putter about in a small boat, it is abundantly clear that everyone who uses the lake loves it and respects it as a

special place. The real question facing the Marine Board was how do you protect a special place while allowing the people who love it to continue to do so respectfully? A ban on motors is one answer, but it only serves one set of users.

A better answer, one advocated by the Marine Board for years but rejected by the Forest Service (and Ted), was to limit motors to clean, quiet four strokes, perhaps with a horsepower limit of 25. This would have allowed sailboats (imagine clean, sustainable wind power) and others who love the lake but don’t want to, or can’t, paddle to also share its beauty while keeping it clean and quiet. It’s big enough to share just a little.

The Oregon Legislature has allowed motors (not to exceed 10 mph). Now you have a coerced agency decision to ban motors. Is the contradiction of a 10 mph speed limit (by law) and a ban on motors (by rule) lost on everyone? The Marine Board’s decision was the wrong answer, made worse by the fact that public input

and the rule process were circumvented to achieve the governor’s agenda. That’s not the kind of legacy I would want to leave as governor, even if you don’t want motors.

Within days of the Waldo decision, I was forced by the governor’s office to resign from temporary duty after a 32-year career at the Marine Board. No explanation. No why.

If you believe the Waldo Lake decision was fair, right and just, you’re living in a fairy tale. Don’t look behind the curtain.

The truth isn’t very pretty in this chapter from Oz. But now it’s off my chest.

The next time you’re asked to comment on any agency’s “proposed” decision, remember how fair and impartial the Waldo decision was, and how much agencies really “value your input.” If you weren’t cynical before, take the lesson of Waldo Lake to heart.

Paul Donheffner was the state marine director from 1984 to 2010.

Kohl’s

If you go

Continued from D1 “Things are looking good at Kohl’s,” Patrick McKeever, a retail analyst at MKM Partners, told the Times. “It seems like the company has seen more broadbased improvement across regions over the past couple of quarters. … Kohl’s really plays more into moderate consumer recovery than other retailers.”

Kohl’s is the second department store to open in Bend in about the last 1½ years.

Fresno, Calif.-based Gottschalks opened a new 58,000square-foot store in south Bend in October 2008, only to close it last July after the company filed for bankruptcy and liquidated. The building that housed Gottschalks will be converted to house two national tenants, the building’s owner said in December. The tenants have not been

COCC Continued from D1 Those who took the initiative and signed up during the summer were more likely to get spots in the classes they wanted, but she said even those students had no guarantee. Many students seek to enroll in advanced math or science, or career-oriented classes at the college.

“Even if they did they may not have gotten in due to overcrowding, and many who waited until August to sign up for Expanded Options absolutely did not get in,” McKeown said. “The only exception would be students who wanted to take Italian.”

She saw many students who were shut out in the fall try again in the winter.

“They signed up for winter and they still couldn’t get in,” she said.

“So what has happened is now that spring term is coming along, this is where the discouragement has come.”

High school students are also working with a more difficult schedule. Classes at the college

What: Grand opening When: 7 a.m. Wednesday Where: 3188 N. U.S. Highway 97, Suite 150, Bend, at the Bend River Promenade Special in-store discounts on kitchenware and electronics.

Special store hours from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Wednesday, and 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. for about a week after.

Regular store hours: Monday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.; Sunday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. identified.

The most recent department store to open in Bend before that was JCPenney in 1988, according to a previous article in The Bulletin.

Pooni said the company is comfortable with opening a store in Bend, partially because of

take out two blocks of the high schools’ four-block schedules.

“I think there’s a lot of interest in Expanded Options and then students look at their high school schedules,” Whitley said. “They’re trying to find classes that don’t conflict with our schedule.”

The district, not the student, pays COCC for each class that its students take. Some students may graduate high school with enough credits for an associate degree.

The college does not keep specific spots open for high school students, and it doesn’t provide preferential treatment to COCC students either.

“We wouldn’t discriminate between them and any other student,” said Carol Moorehead, the head of the Redmond campus and dean of extended learning.

Moorehead believes high school students may have been shut out because of early enrollment closures this year. On Sept. 2, the college closed admissions for new students to enroll for fall classes; on Dec. 16, it closed admissions for new students to enroll in winter classes.

“Overall we’re full, but we’re

Kohl’s recent successes. He said the company tracks where shoppers are from, and those records show demand for a store in Central Oregon.

“We’re pretty picky about where we want to go,” he said.

“Customers have been telling us we need something in Bend.”

He and Curry said the store remains similar to other Kohl’s people might visit throughout the nation, while having the most up-to-date features Kohl’s offers. Also, the company maintains a no-hassle return policy — whether a product was purchased in Springfield, or the customer doesn’t have a receipt, it can be returned in Bend, they said.

“A customer making a return is a returning customer,” Curry said.

definitely working on that,” Moorehead said. “We are planning to expand once again the number of classes for our next academic year, and we’re certainly working on expanding summer.

“So we’re making those kinds of efforts to expand what’s available for everyone, and that should benefit (high school students).”

In the interim, high school officials say it’s important for students to have the opportunity to experience college-level course work.

“I think it has an impact on students seeing themselves as being successful at college,” Van Buren said. “It’s good for them to be able to try it out when they’re in high school and find that success. We know that success breeds success. The other thing I would say is that rigor, that academic rigor is important to students and to families. We cannot offer all of those courses on our campus so it’s nice that students are able to go to a college campus.”

Ernst Beyeler, 88, a leading dealer of modern art

By William Grimes New York Times News Service

Ernst Beyeler, one of the world’s foremost dealers of modern art, who established a jewel-like small museum, the Fondation Beyeler, to display his private collection of important works by Monet, van Gogh, Picasso, Giacometti and others, died on Thursday at his home in Riehen, Switzerland, outside Basel. He was 88.

The death was announced Friday by the Fondation Beyeler on its Web site, Beyeler.com, which stated that he died of natural causes.

Beyeler (pronounced BY-ler) took over a small antiquarian book and print shop in Basel at 24 and, relying on his discerning eye, refined taste and sharp business sense, became Europe’s preeminent dealer in modern art.

His extensive network of wealthy clients and his own considerable financial resources made him a constant and influential presence whenever topquality work came up for sale.

In 1973 he paid $180,000 for Willem de Kooning’s abstract landscape “Police Gazette,” a record price at the time for the artist. (In 2006 David Geffen sold it, with Jasper Johns’ painting “False Start,” for $143.5 million.)

His purchase of Fernand Leger’s cubist painting “Forms in Contrast” for $14.7 million in 1989 also established a record.

Just as important were the museum-quality exhibitions organized by the Galerie Beyeler, whose lavish catalogs played no small role in establishing Beyeler’s reputation among collectors and artists, and his ingenious negotiations that brought museum officials, secretive collectors and elusive artists together.

“He may have the looks of an

“He may have the looks of an elderly ski instructor, but don’t underestimate him. He has a razor-sharp business brain.”

— Excerpt from The Independent of London, quoting one of Ernst Beyeler’s competitors

elderly ski instructor, but don’t underestimate him,” one of his competitors told The Independent of London in 1993. “He has a razor-sharp business brain.”

His close relationship with Picasso led to another important acquisition for the Modern, the artist’s “Guitar,” a constructed cubist sculpture from 1912-14 that the museum had lusted after for years. In 1971, Beyeler proposed to William Rubin, the museum’s director of painting and sculpture, that he come up with something from its collection to trade.

With a small Cézanne landscape in hand, the two men traveled to Picasso’s home in Mougins, France, where discussions went so swimmingly that Picasso, in a burst of generosity, refused the Cézanne and donated the sculpture outright.

Rubin, who died in 2006, once wrote that Beyeler “had the guts and commitment to ‘bet large’ on the greatness of 20th-century modernism some years before it was ‘consecrated’ by the art market.”

FRONTS

Broadside Continued from D1 One of the editorials, titled “It pays to love ASCOCC,” highlighted student Robert Walker’s live-in relationship with student council member Brenda Pierce and Walker’s contract with the student council, which has in the past has paid him to produce videos.

“ASCOCC shouldn’t be paying out large sums to friends,” Iler wrote in the editorial. “That ASCOCC sleeps at night making such unethical choices, is shocking.”

The Broadside published a correction in its Feb. 10 edition noting the column should have appeared on the editorial page and that Walker’s work for ASCOCC may have been more extensive than what was reported in the editorial.

On Feb. 9, Walker filed an incident report with the college’s office of student life. In the report, he wrote that the editorial’s claims were presented as fact “and in doing so defamed my reputation here on campus.”

The report further alleged Iler’s article harassed him, added stress to his life and made it hard for him to perform his duties as a student.

“I have had to seek legal counsel in this matter and have missed class because of it,” he wrote. “I am also finding it difficult to focus on my course work because of this distraction he has caused.”

One day later, Iler and Walker presented their perspectives during a publications board meeting.

No formal action has been taken by the publications board.

Paul Wheeler, the college’s director of residential life, oversaw Friday’s informal conduct hearing. Before the informal hearing, Wheeler told Iler that his attorney, Bill Buchanan, could not be present during the informal hearing. Wheeler, who declined to comment, had two business days to provide Iler with a letter detailing the actions the college would take against him.

Instead, it took just hours for Wheeler to dismiss the complaint.

Iler said after the hearing he was hopeful the college would not sanction him with serious consequences. After the dismissal, Iler said he was pleased.

“It’s great to be exonerated and to know the system worked out the way it should have and that they upheld the freedom of the press,” he said. “(This has) changed the way I plan to do editorials. Perhaps I’ll think on it a little bit. But it doesn’t change how I’m going to operate or how I think journalists should operate.”

Walker said he had wanted Iler to receive a warning from the college to help him understand the importance of responsible reporting, and wrote in an e-mail that the editorial contained factual errors.

“I’m not trying to limit Mr. Iler’s freedoms as a journalist in any way, I simply want him to be a responsible journalist when re-

porting the news,” Walker wrote.

“As a student reporter it is important that the journalist realize the implications of what they report on as ‘news.’”

Frank LoMonte, executive director of Student Press Law Center in Virginia, said he believes the college should not use student disciplinary policies when the issue stems from something written in a school newspaper.

“As a policy matter, colleges really should draw a line between what is done in the pages of a newspaper and their student disciplinary policy,” LoMonte said. “If the student publishes inappropriate content as a member of a newspaper staff, there are internal remedies for that. He can be reprimanded or demoted or fired, and the right recourse is to let the newsroom governance process work just like in any other workplace.”

LoMonte noted that in Oregon, state law prevents the college from any disciplinary or retaliatory action stemming from what was written in the school newspaper unless it is libelous, slanderous or otherwise illegal.

“Basic principles of libel law say the information published would have to be factually false in order to be libelous,” LoMonte said. “That would be, as a threshold matter, the burden would be on the accuser to prove it was factually false, not just that it made him upset.”

Redmond Continued from D1 The Oregon Department of Energy awarded grants to 22 Oregon counties for energy efficiency and renewable projects.

The Redmond City Council approved the grant unanimously Tuesday night.

The city is required to complete contracts for each project and submit them to ODE by March 15. Redmond Director of Public Works Chris Doty said the projects will start immediately following approval from ODE. Construction could begin in spring or summer and wrap up by the end of this year, he said.

YOUR FIRST 2 VOTES ARE FREE! A $264,833 project will update old equipment and pump in the city’s water distribution system located in southeast Redmond, estimated to save the city $21,600 annually in electricity costs.

A $77,600 project will replace downtown Redmond’s incandescent street lights with more efficient LED lights and save the city $6,068 annually in power costs.

Taylor said it will improve the

city’s overall financial and environmental sustainability.

“It will lower our energy costs and decrease the amount of energy that we use,” Taylor said.

“From a wastewater perspective, it will potentially lower sewer rates. By reducing costs, we can pass on the savings to our rate customers.”

Forecasting the Direction of

Real Estate

Experts give their opinions about achieving stability in today’s real estate market during the Bend Chamber of Commerce 2010 Real Estate Forecast Breakfast.

by Nicole Werner, The Bulletin Advertising Department Within an economy that’s in the infant stages of recovery, Steve Scott, CRB of Steve Scott Realtors believes in the power of reciprocal thinking—looking at the positive side of an otherwise negative situation.

“This year … there is optimism,” said Scott.

During Monday’s Bend Chamber of Commerce 2010 Real Estate Forecast Breakfast, Scott, along with Linda Stelle, president of AmeriTitle, said Real Estate professionals and the community as a whole should not panic about the decrease in real estate values, but instead be aware of the improvements that are slowly occurring.

Instead of giving estimates of how long it will take to repair the damage of the recession, Stelle and Scott gave their opinions about what mistakes were made and what can be learned moving forward.

“Worrying about when the recession is over is illconceived,” said Stelle. “Don’t believe that economists know more about our economy than we do.”

Stelle encourages homeowners not to panic about falling home values. She said that people who have mortgages that are “underwater,” but who can still afford to make their monthly payments, should not give up their homes as unnecessary short sales and foreclosures will continue contributing to the problem “Stay in your home and believe this community is coming back,” she said. “Realize what effect [walking away] will have on your credit.

She acknowledged that “the landscape has changed in Central Oregon,” and the effects of the recession will be felt with regard to lending practices and how people obtain credit.

Stelle said that foreclosures and short sales will have a negative impact on credit ratings, and individuals who have moved on from their homes through those processes will have a difficult time gaining credit approval for mortgages and consumer credit.

In previous years, it was not uncommon for lenders to approve loans for 100 percent of the sale price of a home because it was assumed that property values would increase over time.

“Twenty percent down payment will most likely be required again,” said Stelle.

Savings and loan approval restraints could have a positive effect on the rental market, and it’s unlikely that rents will increase significantly for the time being, according to Scott.

“It’s not what we invested in.

It’s how we did it.”

Reflecting on conversations she had with a mentor years ago, Stelle explained that real estate trends exist in 20-year cycles. The previous recovery occurred during 1986, she said. Provided the cycle continues, for investment purposes, she cites 2010 as being a good year to buy with a plan to maintain the property through 2025 instead of “flipping” houses.

Scott said that we are rising from the bubble burst caused by undesirable lending practices such as subprime mortgages, stated income loans and home equity loans used to purchase non-essential “toys” and to pay off credit card debt.

“It’s not what we invested in,” said Scott. “It’s how we did it.”

As we look beyond the causes of the downturn, Scott advises consumers to realign their financial habits with more stable practices, and one of the most important elements in that equation is “don’t run out of cash.”

When cash is carefully managed, the other factors currently holding the real estate market back can dissipate.

These factors include lending restraints, declining rents, developers in “hibernation,” and the government deficit, which will cause an increase in interest rates—possibly later this year—and inflation.

Although home values have not yet stabilized, Scott said that inventory is decreasing, and as that continues, prices will stop falling. Sales for single-family residential properties in Bend and Redmond have increased by 39 and 41 percent respectively since 2008.

Scott’s picks for solid real estate investments in the current year include industrial buildings, apartments, bank-owned properties and change-of-use/ conversion properties.

For non-real estate investors, paying off debt, paying off mortgages or decreasing personal debt-to-income ratios should be top priorities for financial health.

From taking steps to repair the local economy to expanding our borders to create excitement about our region, Stelle would like to see a far-reaching marketing campaign that could generate commercial interest in businesses that do not currently operate in Central Oregon.

The belief that if business owners and corporations come to Central Oregon to do business, jobs will be created, further increasing residential market activity. Commercial lease prices have fallen significantly, and this could work to the advantage of new companies moving in.
