Walden says 3 found dead in Sunriver area no earmarks Bodies of mother, son in home; father hanging outside; no suspects sought — what’s it mean for us? By Keith Chu The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — Saying it’s time for a “fresh start” for the federal budget, U.S. Rep. Greg Walden, R-Hood River, joined the rest of House Republicans in announcing that he won’t ask for any federal earmarks this year. Earmarks — or spending items specifically requested by one or more lawmakers for individual projects — are a frequently attacked feature of the federal budget process, thanks to several examples of wasteful items, including the Alaskan “bridge to nowhere.” Despite that, many lawmakers, including Walden, have defended the practice in the past, saying that politicians can better identify worthwhile projects than federal bureaucrats. Walden’s decision could make it harder for local governments to find federal funding for projects like restoring Mirror Pond, which Bend has already submitted to Walden and Oregon’s U.S. senators. But Walden’s spokesman argued that the current record deficits require a new approach. See Earmarks / A4

Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office deputies and detectives work Thursday evening at the scene of what law enforcement officials are calling a homicide on Hermosa Road, south of Sunriver.

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

SUNRIVER — A Sunriverarea couple and their 7-year-old son were found dead at their home Thursday morning. Dispatchers received a call around 10:30 a.m. from someone who reported seeing a person hanging outside of a garage at a home on Hermosa Road, south of Sunriver. When responders from the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office and Oregon State Police arrived on the scene, they found Joachim Steffan, 40, hanging outside the garage. Inside the

light blue house, they found the bodies of Dagmar Steffan, 49, and Pascal Steffan, 7. By Thursday evening, officials had released no information about a cause of death for the family. They were calling the incident a homicide, but said they were not looking for suspects and did not believe residents in the area were in any danger. Neighbors on Hermosa Road said they didn’t know something had happened until the emergency vehicles started showing up late Wednesday morning. See Deaths / A4

Congo’s fashionable disguise the daily toil By Stephanie McCrummen The Washington Post

KINSHASA, Congo — This vast central African nation is known for many things: the massive corruption of the late leopard-hat-wearing dictator Mobutu Sese Seko, grinding poverty, a devastating conflict in the east. But it is worth noting that Congo is also home to a formidable cult of high fashion, as demonstrated by the scene at a pool hall here one Sunday. It was a lackluster afternoon until a shiny maroon Mercedes pulled up, delivering a group of young men in ensembles of Gaultier, Cavalli and Issey Miyake. See Congo / A4

Seed prices draw farmer ire ... and federal scrutiny By William Neuman

INDEX Business

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Pacific Power President Pat Reiten and Redmond Airport Manager Carrie Novick take a closer look Thursday at solar panels recently installed on the roof of the airport. The solar arrays, one of the first community solar projects in Central Oregon, can produce about 64,763 kilowatt hours of electricity a year, providing the newly expanded facility with about 10 percent of its electricity use. The rooftop panels are angled to catch as much sun as possible along a south-facing section of the roof. A $200,000 grant from Pacific Power’s Blue Sky program funded more than a third of the project. Reiten said it’s an educational tool

During the depths of the economic crisis last year, the prices for many goods held steady or even dropped. But on American farms, the picture was far different, as farmers watched the price they paid for seeds jump. Corn seed prices rose 32 percent, soybean seeds 24 percent. Such price increases for seeds — the most important purchase a farmer makes each year — are part of an unprecedented climb that began more than a decade ago, stemming from the advent of genetically engineered crops and the rapid concentration in the seed industry that accompanied it.

for passengers at the airport to see the possibilities of solar projects. “As the community sees success (at the airport), we hope it will spur additional solar development,” he said. Novick said she doesn’t know how long it will take for the energy savings from the panels to repay the cost of the project, but added that solar was an obvious option for the $40 million terminal expansion project. “If you live in Central Oregon, you want to take advantage of it,” Novick said. — Kate Ramsayer, The Bulletin

Geologists have a logical term for the recent rash of devastating earthquakes around the world: They’re called clusters, and scientists recognize that such groupings do occur. The cluster seemed to start with a magnitude-6.5 quake outside Eureka, Calif., on Jan. 9. Then a magnitude-7.0 earthquake devastated Haiti on Jan. 12. A similarsize quake struck Japan on Feb. 26, followed the next day by a powerful magnitude-8.8 temblor rocking Chile. A magnitude-6.4 earthquake hit Taiwan on March 4, and a magnitude-6.5 earthquake struck Indonesia the next day. Then, Monday, a magnitude6.0 earthquake shook Turkey. Despite the unnerving series of recent quakes, it’s not a sign that more seismic havoc is imminent. Although large earthquakes are capable of triggering faraway temblors, the subsequent quakes are typically well under magnitude 4, geologists say. So when major earthquakes occur close in time but thousands of miles apart, it’s considered coincidence.

Like flipping a coin Stephen Kirby, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey in Menlo Park, Calif., compared it to a long series of coin tosses. “Most geoscientists feel this is just a statistical variation that you would expect with a random process,” Kirby said. “In other words, if you take a penny and you flip it, sometimes you’ll get five heads in a row, and sometimes you’ll get five or six tails in a row. But averaged over time, you get 50-50 heads and tails.” The seismic waves from a large earthquake rapidly diminish in strength over distances, and they’ve only been observed to cause tiny quakes in distant lands, explained David Hill, a retired scientist with the USGS. In California, he said, the Chilean earthquake has triggered a number of small earthquakes in the southern end of the Sierra Nevada, in the Coso Geothermal Field area, as well as a number of roughly magnitude-1 earthquakes in the Geysers Geothermal Field above Calistoga. Most of these are too small to feel, although seismic monitoring equipment picks them up.

‘Stress transfer’ There’s one scenario, however, in which a big quake can unleash another large one, for instance magnitude 7 or higher, but it’s only in nearby areas through a process called a “stress transfer.” “When a large earthquake happens, it changes the stress field in the vicinity and in some cases can load an adjacent fault that hasn’t slipped yet,” Hill said. “And that’s been documented a number of times around the world.” Four quakes that hit Argentina in the days after the Chilean temblor are “good candidates” for having been triggered by stress transfer, Kirby said. Hill agreed that given what’s known about earthquakes today, the recent set of large earthquakes is rightly ascribed to chance. But he doesn’t unequivocally rule out a connection between large earthquakes close in time but a great distance apart. “It’s not completely out of the question that it could indeed happen,” he said. But for major shaking to trigger a large earthquake elsewhere on the globe, the stress buildup along the fault line of the second earthquake would already have to be on the verge of breaking. “(It) would have to be close to failure anyway,” Hill said. “It’s basically what some people refer to as a ‘clock advance.’ That stress has built up slowly over time, and some small change in stress happens and advances the time of the bigger earthquake.” But the existence of “clock advance” quakes remains in the realm of the hypothetical, as there’s no way to measure if such a quake has ever occurred. And not every scientist agrees they are even plausible.

Shark shift: Research changes how we perceive great whites Do they migrate to the depths to do battle with giant squid? It’s a controversial idea, but some scientists think that’s what happens By Jill Leovy Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — In what could be the ultimate marine smackdown, great white sharks off the California coast may be migrating 1,600 miles west to do battle with creatures that rival their star power: giant squids. A series of studies tracking this mysterious migration has scientists rethinking not just about what the big shark does with its time but also about what sort of creature it is. Few sea denizens match great white sharks and giant squids in primitive mystique. Both are the subject of popular mania; both are inscrutable. That these two mythic sea monsters might convene for epic battles on the stark expanses of the Pacific is enough to make a documentarian salivate. For more reserved scientists, the possible link between sharks and squid, suggested by marine ecologist Michael Domeier of the Marine Conservation Science Institute in Fallbrook, Calif., is just one part of emerging research that has altered their understanding of the great whites. The shift began eight years ago with the surprising discovery that great white sharks migrate, somewhat as humpback whales do. That and subsequent studies have demolished the iconic image of great whites lurking in relative shallows, ready to snatch an errant swimmer, as popularized in the movie “Jaws.” Domeier said he believes the animals “are not a coastal shark that comes out to the middle of the ocean. They are an ocean shark that comes to the coast. It is a complete flip-flop.” Picture them not as a dorsal fin off the beach but rather as an unseen leviathan swimming through black depths where the oxygen thins and fish glow in the dark, and maybe pouncing on a 30-foot squid. The squid part is controversial. But Domeier’s work and that of other scientists increasingly suggest that great white sharks

Recent studies by scientists suggest great white sharks follow set migration patterns rather than roving and eating at random. This has puzzled some researchers, who wonder why the sharks would stray from ready food supplies along the coast.

Tracking the great white Researchers tracking tagged great white sharks have discovered that some make long-range, seasonal migrations from the Farallon Islands and Guadalupe Island, gathering at a deepwater zone.

are not randomly roving eating machines. Instead, they obey set migration patterns, have distinct populations and return to the same locales. They are not desperadoes but dutiful migrants: Nomads but not outlaws, they yearn for home.

On the trail of a killing machine But this new understanding raised a question: Why would an animal so large, that grows teeth as humans grow hair, bother to go so far when it can dine on just about anything in fin’s reach? The migration is especially puzzling because it means sharks miss out on coastal food supplies, said the University of Hawaii’s Kevin Weng, who also tracked sharks’ migration. Determined to find the reason,

Domeier and his team spent three years catching 22 great whites off Guadalupe Island, southwest of San Diego and bolting high-tech tags to their fins. The area, like California’s Farralon Islands, is a hot spot for shark visits. The team used hooks that could cradle a volleyball. They wrestled the sharks onto platforms, lifted them aboard their vessel and put towels over their eyes. The 4,000-pound predator is only a minor threat out of water, Domeier said. But after being thwacked off his feet, he learned to tie up their tails. Funded by Newport Beach’s George Pfleger Foundation and others, Domeier arranged a voyage with a National Geographic Channel television crew to follow the sharks in a 126-foot boat. The crew used the tags to track the sharks to an area of the deep

WELL MAINTAINED AND PRIVATE HOME

Pacific about 1,500 miles east of Kauai that scientists consider an ecological desert because it is so biologically unproductive. There, the sharks abruptly ended their migration, and satellite tags showed them milling and diving. Despite hours of surveys and trolling during last spring’s monthlong voyage, members found barely any fish or other prey that the sharks might be eating. But there was an exception: squids. Purple and neon flying squids were easy to find. There also were leaping sperm whales, a marine mammal known to feed in spawning areas for large squids. To Domeier, it was clear: The sharks had found a squidbased ecosystem with big enough prey to attract sperm whales. Finally, the crew found a whitish carcass of a giant squid that had been chewed on, perhaps by various predators. Because of the lack of alternative food sources, and the pinging tags that traced deep and frequent dives, Domeier said, he formed a speculative conclusion: The sharks go to the area for the same reason as sperm whales: to feed on large squids, including the giant ones in the area, and on various predators the squids attract. The idea has set off robust debate. Some scientists argue it remains possible that the sharks mate offshore, and all agree that more research is needed to determine exactly what, and when, they eat. And it’s highly unlikely anyone will ever see a shark making an easy kill of giant squid.

T S By David Cho and Brady Dennis The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Senate banking committee Chairman Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., said Thursday he will move forward next week with sweeping legislation to revamp the nation’s financial regulatory system, despite failing to resolve key differences with Republicans. Although Dodd said he will continue bipartisan talks, unveiling the measure on Monday

puts pressure on GOP senators by creating a sense of urgency and forcing the debate into the open. Republicans opposed to key elements of the bill, such as new protections for consumers, would have to make their case publicly. After months of talks, the two sides have been unable to reach final agreement over the enforcement powers of a new consumer watchdog, the scope of the Federal Reserve’s regu-

lation over banks and the financing of a new authority that would allow the government to wind down large, troubled financial firms without cost to taxpayers. Dodd said he decided to introduce his bill so the committee could begin discussing it before the Easter recess in early April. He also had been facing pressure from liberals who feared he was compromising too much during recent negotiations.

Journalists and representatives of Iraqi political blocs look on as early election results are projected Thursday on a screen in Baghdad. Initial results Thursday placed Iraq’s major coalitions in a surprisingly close race.

Tight vote tally in Iraq election serves to deepen existing divide By Anthony Shadid and Tim Arango New York Times News Service

BAGHDAD — Iraq’s major coalitions were locked in a surprisingly close race Thursday, in initial results from elections that deepened divisions across a fractured landscape. Candidates were quick to charge fraud, heightening concerns about whether Iraq’s fledgling institutions were strong enough to support a peaceful transfer of power. The day was the most tumultuous since Sunday’s vote for Parliament, with Prime Minister Nouri Kamal al-Maliki’s office saying he underwent surgery, officials

Aftershocks jolt Chile as new leader is sworn in By Juan Forero The Washington Post

SANTIAGO, Chile — Sebastian Piñera pledged during his presidential campaign to bring fiscal prudence to Chile, but moments before his inauguration Thursday, he received a jolting reminder of how last month’s magnitude-8.8 earthquake has shredded that promise. A quick succession of aftershocks left dignitaries, including several Latin American presidents, smiling nervously and eyeing the ceiling at a ceremony in the congressional building in coastal Valparaiso. Piñera later toured the area that had been rattled by the tremors, one of them a magnitude-6.9 quake nearly as powerful as the one that hit Haiti in January. The aftershocks did not cause fatalities or crippling damage. But the image of a new president and his aides rushing to a disaster zone underscored the impact of the Feb. 27 quake and tsunami on Piñera’s plans for the next four years. The billionaire businessman had vowed to generate 6 percent economic growth a year and hundreds of thousands of jobs.

with his chief rival complaining that their ballots were dumped in the garbage, and a leading Shiite coalition claiming that they had challenged the popular mandate that al-Maliki needed to return to power. The turmoil deepened both anticipation and uncertainty over an election to choose a government that will rule Iraq as America begins its military withdrawal in earnest next month. The initial returns, according to officials who have seen tallies from across the country, suggested a very tight race between al-Maliki’s coalition; Ayad Allawi, a secular Shiite and the leader of

the Iraqiya coalition; and a Shiite coalition known as the Iraqi National Alliance. The Kurds, though divided, appeared poised to finish strongly, they said, leaving Iraq’s political map far more ambiguous than just weeks ago. Although officials said al-Maliki appeared to have a plurality in returns so far, his rivals in the Shiite coalition and Allawi’s alliance trumpeted their gains — Allawi in Sunni regions and the Shiite coalition in rural southern provinces. And the early indications suggested that al-Maliki fell short of the mandate he might have needed to guide negotiations over a coalition government that he could lead.

N B Health vote likely without abortion foes

More kids’ jewelry recalled over cadmium

House leaders have concluded they cannot change a divisive abortion provision in President Barack Obama’s health care bill and will try to pass the sweeping legislation without the support of ardent anti-abortion Democrats. The approach would skirt a major obstacle for Democratic leaders in the final throes of a yearlong effort to change health care in the United States. But it sets up a risky strategy of trying to round up enough Democrats to overcome, not appease, a small but possibly decisive group of Democratic lawmakers in the House.

LOS ANGELES — Federal safety regulators recalled a line of Christmas-themed bracelets Thursday, expanding their effort to purge children’s jewelry boxes and store shelves of items containing high levels of the toxic metal cadmium. The latest action by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission targeted “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” charm bracelets that released alarmingly high levels of cadmium in government lab tests, suggesting children could be exposed to a carcinogen that also can damage kidneys and bones.

Cuomo recuses self from Paterson case ALBANY, N.Y. — Facing growing pressure, Attorney General Andrew Cuomo on Thursday appointed an independent counsel to take over the investigation into Gov.

Cuomo said Judith Kaye, the former chief judge of New York, will lead the inquiry, along with an investigation into whether the governor lied when he was questioned by the State Commission on Public Integrity about his office’s solicitation of Yankees World Series tickets.

Few details in closure of Kansas City schools KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City school officials promised Thursday to shut down nearly half the district’s schools by the start of classes in the fall without offering details of how they intend to implement the complicated plan in just a matter of months. The drastic project also calls for cutting hundreds of jobs and shuffling thousands of students. Officials say the changes are needed to keep the district from using up what little is left of the $2 billion it received as part of a desegregation case. — From wire reports

Deal reached on health costs of 9/11 workers By Mireya Navarro New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — A settlement of up to $657.5 million has been reached in the cases of thousands of rescue and cleanup workers at ground zero who sued the city over damage to their health, according to city officials and lawyers for the plaintiffs. They said that the settlement would compensate about 10,000 plaintiffs according to the severity of their illnesses and the level of their exposure to contaminants at the World Trade Center site. Lawyers from both sides met Thursday to discuss the terms of the settlement with Judge Alvin Hellerstein of the U.S. District Court. Payouts to the plaintiffs would come out of a federally financed insurance fund of about $1.1 billion that is controlled by the city. At least 95 percent of the plaintiffs must accept its terms for it to take effect. If 100 percent of the plaintiffs agree to the terms, the total settlement would be $657.5 million. But if only the required 95 percent agreed, the total would be reduced to $575 million. Lawyers for the plaintiffs estimated that individual settlement amounts will vary from thousands of dollars to more than $1 million for the most serious injuries. The settlement, which took two years to negotiate, raises the prospect of an end to years of complex and politically charged litigation that has pit-

Central Oregon cities and counties have already submitted earmark requests for next year’s budget. Bend, for example, asked for $500,000 to restore Mirror Pond, $750,000 to improve accessibility of sidewalks and $10 mil-

lion to upgrade its water system. Without support from a House lawmaker, the city’s chances of seeing those requests funded are drastically reduced, according to congressional observers, including Pacific University in-

Guy Matondo, one of Congo’s fashion devotees, struts with a golf club and shows off his shoes, glasses and Cavalli shirt. Many trace the quasi-religious fashion cult to a rebellion against the repression of dictator Mobutu Sese Seko, who banned Western dress in favor of dreary, Maoist-style garb.

Congo Continued from A1 “Labels! Labels!” yelled one of the pool players. “Show us the labels!” “Versace!” answered Ukonda Pangi, 22, pointing to a rhinestone buckle as he strutted about like Mick Jagger. “Look! Look at this belt! That’s Versace!” Congo’s fashion devotees call themselves “sapeurs,” and at the moment, a group of them are attempting to revive a movement that has been in some decline in recent years, perhaps not coincidentally along with Congo itself. Last month, the men paraded in their best Guccis and Yamamotos to the grave of one of Congo’s most famous sapeurs, laid flowers and declared a World Day of Sape. Their hope: to promote Congo’s contributions to what people here call “the art of wearing,” which is experiencing a rebirth in a country devastated by war and poverty. “Clothing — it’s an important science in this human life on Earth,” began the sapeur known as Papa Griffe. “It gives a person value.”

Fashion rebellion Stories about the movement’s origins vary, but the word “sa-

Seeds Continued from A1 The price increases have not only irritated many farmers, they have caught the attention of the Obama administration. The Justice Department began an antitrust investigation of the seed industry last year, with an apparent focus on Monsanto, the company that controls much of the market for the expensive bioengineered traits that make crops resistant to insect pests and herbicides. The investigation is just one facet of a broader push by the Obama administration to take a closer look at competition — or the lack thereof — in agriculture, from the dairy industry to livestock to commodity crops, like corn and soybeans. Today, as the spring planting season approaches, Attorney General Eric Holder and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack will speak at the first of a series of public meetings aimed at letting farmers and industry executives voice their ideas. The meeting, in Ankeny, Iowa, will include a session on the seed industry. “I think most farmers would look to have more competition in the industry,” said Laura Foell, who raises corn and soybeans on 900 acres in Schaller, Iowa. The Iowa attorney general, Tom Miller, has also been scruti-

peur” comes from the French slang for clothes. Many trace the quasi-religious cult to a rebellion against the repression of Mobutu, who banned Western dress in favor of a dreary, Maoist-style number called the abacost. In the late 1970s, famed rumba singers such as Papa Wemba developed a following by challenging those edicts with a flair for haute-couture spectacle that rivaled Cher. This was partly a marketing ploy. But as the country sank deeper into ruin and war, being a sapeur became a grandiose escape, a way of transforming broken-down sidewalks into so many floodlighted runways, and a jobless 18-year-old into a persona of his own choosing. “I am,” began Yannick Kindingo, who wore what looked like a post-modern kilt by Miyake, “the twin of the president of the republic, and of Papa Wemba. I’m a philosopher of sape.” He sat in a white plastic chair outside the bar, near a smogsickened palm tree and an open sewer. As the sun set, his colleagues, who had just come from filming a commercial, struck theatrical poses. Guy Matondo whacked the heel of his shoe with a golf club to show the quality of the sole. Firenze Luzolo, 26, flashed the white label of his worn, black Y-3 suit, which ap-

peared authentic. “We know,” Luzolo said, referring to their sense of style. “We are knowers.”

nizing Monsanto’s market dominance. The company’s genetically engineered traits are in the vast majority of corn and soybeans grown in the United States, Miller said. “That gives them considerable power, and questions arise about how that power is used,” he said. Critics charge that Monsanto has used license agreements with smaller seed companies to gain an unfair advantage over competitors and to block cheaper generic versions of its seeds from eventually entering the market. DuPont, a rival company, also claims Monsanto has unfairly barred it from combining biotech traits in a way that would benefit farmers.

Yet, in a seed market that Monsanto dominates, the jump in prices has been nothing short of stunning. Including the sharp increases last year, Agriculture Department figures show that corn seed prices have risen 135 percent since 2001. Soybean prices went up 108 percent over that period. By contrast, the Consumer Price Index rose only 20 percent in that period. A Monsanto spokesman, Lee Quarles, said the price increases were justified because the quality of the seeds had been going up, and new biotech traits kept being added. For example, he said, many corn varieties now include multiple genes to battle insect pests, raising their value. Quarles said higher prices were justified because the traits saved farmers money and made their operations more efficient. Monsanto began investing heavily in biotechnology in the 1980s — ahead of most other agricultural companies. In the mid-1990s, it became the first to widely market genetically engineered seeds for row crops, introducing soybeans containing the so-called Roundup Ready gene, which allowed plants to tolerate spraying of its popular Roundup weed killer. Soon after, it began selling corn seed engineered with a gene to resist insect pests.

Monsanto’s response In a recent interview at Monsanto’s headquarters in St. Louis, its chief executive, Hugh Grant, said that while his company might be the market leader, competition was increasing as the era of biotech crops matured. “We were the first out of the blocks, and I think what you see now is a bunch of people catching up and aggressively competing, and I’m fighting with them,” Grant said. He said farmers chose the company’s products because they liked the results in the field, not because of any untoward conduct on Monsanto’s part.

Stylish competition Being a sapeur often involves competitions among fashion gangs that adopt names such as “The English” and “1000 Years’ War,” and on this day Luzolo and others were preparing for a fashion smackdown with rivals from the neighboring capital of Brazzaville, across the river in Congo Republic. “Glasses — Gabbana! Shirt — Cavalli! This is very expensive!” shouted Matondo, whose nom de guerre is “The Chinese from China.” Kindingo, who has a slight lisp and calls himself “Mzee,” an honorific usually reserved for the elderly, noted that his kilt is “sold in three shops in all the world — Paris, England and Japan.” There are wealthy sapeurs — singers with money and diamond dealers — and many have girlfriends who bemoan their spending habits. But most are like this group, who at the end of their strutting borrowed money for bus rides to their homes across Kinshasa, a capital so neglected it appears to have been bombed and left to decay, its ruins smothered in weeds.

ects to fund than federal bureaucrats. And he said cutting earmarks wouldn’t reduce federal spending. “Those of us in the Congress have a constitutional role in determining spending,” Walden said, in 2008. “Not having earmarks doesn’t reduce the deficit.” Whelan said public outcry against federal spending prompted Walden’s decision. “Representative Walden has been transparent about his earmark process and only put in for good public projects, but the fact is the American people are absolutely sick and tired of outof-control spending and the way business is done here, and that includes earmarks,” Whelan said. “Hopefully, this is a gamechanging moment to shake things up to the point where ac-

Continued from A1 Darren and Robin Weeks live across the street and said they’d known the family for a few years. They described Joachim, who went by “Joe,” as an entrepreneur always looking for a new business venture, from construction to a decal business to a coin-operated laundry. “He was very easygoing, very optimistic,” Darren Weeks said. State business records list Joachim Steffan as the manager of Steffan Construction LLC, a business based at the Hermosa Road address, and Dagmar Steffan as the contact person for La Pine Dry Cleaning. Dagmar, neighbors said, was a talented baker who had once held a neighborhood bake sale and had plans to open her own bakery. She specialized in sweet treats from Germany, where neighbors said both Joachim and Dagmar were from. Pascal came over to the Weeks’ home frequently to play with the couple’s two boys. Robin Weeks said the short, stocky boy had impeccable manners and a fondness for jumping on the trampoline. “The boys would want to come in and play video games, and he’d want to jump on the trampoline,” she said. “He’d stay out there and his mom would call him to come home, and he’d say, ‘No, no, I’m having too much fun.’” Several neighbors said they’d often see Pascal playing outside in the yard or walking down the street to the bus stop. Hunter Ramsey, 11, and Brandon Mehren, 12, who had ridden over on their bikes to check out the scene, said they waited for the bus every day

A spokeswoman for U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., said Merkley would push for earmarks requested by Central Oregon governments. “One of Senator Merkley’s primary responsibilities is to advocate for all areas of the state,” said spokeswoman Julie Edwards. “He will redouble his efforts to make sure Central Oregon’s needs are met.” Keith Chu can be reached at 202-662-7456 or at kchu@bendbulletin.com.

structor Jim Moore. Bend City Councilor Tom Greene said the city always considered it unlikely that it would receive earmarks for any of its projects. “(Oregon lawmakers) were all telling us, because of the economy, that it’s extremely unlikely anything would come of it,” Greene said. Walden, who joined the Republican leadership last month, has only requested earmarks on behalf of nonprofit groups and local governments in Oregon, and led the state’s congressional delegation in making his earmark requests public. But he hasn’t opposed the concept of earmarks. In March 2008, Walden told The Bulletin that lawmakers can sometimes make better decisions about what proj-

Continued from A1 “This is a stand that Republicans are taking to acknowledge that federal spending is out of control,” said spokesman Andrew Whelan. Earmark spending makes up only a small part of the $3.7 trillion federal budget, according to The Associated Press. Last year’s spending bills contained nearly 10,000 earmarks worth about $16 billion, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense, a Washington watchdog group. Existing rules require lawmakers to disclose the earmarks they request and who gets them, and any bill containing earmarks is accompanied by a detailed accounting of them.

with Pascal, a student at Three Rivers Elementary. But on Thursday, they’d opted to bike to school and didn’t find out something had happened to the boy until they returned home at the end of the day. Jerry and Betty Rockow, who live down the street, said the family seemed to have a close relationship. Joachim, they said, was often outside with his son, and both enjoyed riding on four-wheelers. “He was proud of that little boy,” she said. As the sun set Thursday, detectives were still on scene in the otherwise quiet, wooded neighborhood. Wearing gloves and yellow crime-scene coverings over their shoes, police walked back and forth from the house, sometimes carrying items out.

Capt. Marc Mills of the Sheriff’s Office said the family was last seen Wednesday afternoon, but detectives aren’t sure if they died Wednesday evening or Thursday morning. No new details were available at 11:15 p.m. Thursday. Neighbors said Joachim Steffan had been out of town for several weeks because he’d found work out of the area. He had been back home for a couple of weeks, but they’d recently put their house on the market, and hadn’t been coming and going as often as they had in the past. A “for sale” sign remained up outside the home Thursday evening. Erin Golden can be reached at 541-617-7837 or at egolden@bendbulletin.com.

Bloomberg News KHARTOUM, Sudan — Peace talks between Sudan’s government and the main insurgent group in the western Darfur region haven’t resumed, four days before a deadline the two sides set for a final agreement, a rebel spokesman said. Sudanese President Umar al-Bashir signed a temporary accord with the Justice and Equality Movement on Feb. 23 in Doha, the capital of Qatar. The two sides agreed to start immediate talks to reach a final peace agreement by March 15. “Unfortunately, I don’t think that date will be met,” El Tahir El Feki, the chairman of JEM’s legislative council, said yesterday in a telephone interview from London. While mediators have provided proposals, “direct talks haven’t started yet.”

ADDY AWARD GOES TO … Annual event honors the creative work of Central Oregon advertising agencies

State warns of scam targeting businesses An official-looking Web site selling federal employment identification numbers (FEINs) and sales tax certificates is a scam, according to a news release Thursday from the Oregon Department of Justice. The Web site, www.online-tax-id-number .org/, claims that if you live in Oregon and sell or ship something to someone else in Oregon, you must collect and pay sales tax to the state. There is no sales tax in Oregon, so businesses don’t need a sales tax certificate. The Web site also charges for what it claims are FEINs, but actual FEINs are issued by the IRS, and businesses can get them free, the release says. — From staff reports

Despite its size and isolated setting, Bend is home to a relatively large number of copywriters, graphic artists and marketing consultants. Each year, the city’s creative industry gathers to celebrate its work, with some of it good enough to eventually make it to a national advertising competition in Washington, D.C. Tonight at The Oxford Hotel in downtown Bend, the Advertising Federation of Central Oregon, also known as AdFed, the local chapter of the American Advertising Federation, will hold its 22nd annual Drake Awards to honor the best local advertising. The event is sold out. There are 246 entries from 44 local creative firms or professionals this year, up from 243 entries last year. That’s a good sign, said Linda Orcelletto, AdFed’s executive director, even though the number of entries is off more than 38 percent from a height of 400 five years ago. “What we’ve been hearing from (other regional chapters) is more are down in their entries this year, as much as 25 percent, so luckily we haven’t been following that trend,” Orcelletto said.

STOC K S R E P O R T

The city of Bend and unincorporated Deschutes County reported lower room-tax collections in January than in January 2009, according to figures released Thursday. Bend’s collections dipped 4.1 percent after a 22.2 percent increase in December fueled by USA Cycling’s Cyclocross National Championships in town that month. Deschutes County’s collections fell 18.5 percent, which marked the fourth consecutive decline. Room taxes are the most reliable indicator of the health of the tourism industry. In the fiscal year that began July 1, 2009, collections are down 5.5 percent in Bend and 10.8 percent in the county from the year-ago period. Occupancy since July has not fallen as significantly as room-tax revenue, said Alana Audette, president and CEO of the Central Oregon Visitors Association. “... We are generating roughly the same/flat number of visitors to the region that we hosted in the previous year, but ... hotels, motels and resorts are discounting steeply to fill beds, and that shows up in the declines in (room-tax) revenue,” Audette wrote in an e-mail. “The light at the end of this tunnel is that booking pace for summer of ’10 continue ahead of the previous year.”

Bend-based Les Schwab Tire Centers will pay $2 million to settle a gender-based hiring discrimination lawsuit filed against the company by the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the agency announced Thursday. The suit, filed in 2006 in U.S. District Court in Seattle, alleged Les Schwab failed to hire women for certain sales and service positions, whose duties included tire changing, failed to train women, and failed to promote women to management positions at its stores in Oregon, Washington, California, Idaho, Montana, Nevada and Utah. The court later dismissed the training and promotion claims. According to the settlement, Les Schwab admits no wrongdoing. “We are pleased to have resolved litigation with the (EEOC) that recognizes Les Schwab’s continued commitment to equalopportunity practices in the workplace,” Jodie Hueske, Les Schwab’s vice president of human resources, said in a statement issued by the company.

Lehman hid borrowing, examiner’s report says By Michael J. de la Merced and Andrew Ross Sorkin New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — It is the Wall Street equivalent of a coroner’s report — a 2,200-page document that lays out, in new and startling detail, how Lehman Brothers used accounting sleight of hand to conceal the bad investments that led to its undoing. The report, compiled by an examiner for the now-bankrupt bank, hit Wall Street with a thud late Thursday. The 158-yearold company, it concluded, died from multiple causes. Among them were bad mortgage holdings and, less directly, demands by two rivals, JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup, that the foundering bank post collateral against loans it desperately needed.

sells about seven Camrys for every one Lexus ES, the ES is linked to more injuries per vehicle. In August, a 2009 ES, since recalled, sped off a highway near San Diego and crashed into a ravine, killing the off-duty California Highway Patrol officer who was driving and three family members, one of whom called 911. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently bought and is conducting tests on a Lexus sedan that took its original owner on an unintended six-mile ride. That driver, Rhonda Smith of Tennessee, eventually brought the car to a stop and was not injured; her testimony opened a series of hearings in Congress beginning last month. The home page of Toyota’s Web site includes a bright red “Recall Information” message, but the notices are more subtle on Lexus.com. “There are very few Lexus models that have been affected by this,” said John Hanson, a Toyota spokesman. “We are very distinctly different brands and we have different business models. The way they do business is deliberately very different.”

Continued from B1 “Toyota is of course the headliner,” said Stephanie Brinley, an analyst with the consulting firm AutoPacific. “While it seems like everybody already knows that Toyota and Lexus are related, that may not be the case. The Lexus name has not been as criticized.” Separating Lexus from Toyota has been the company’s goal since it started selling Lexus cars in 1989. Toyota officials focused on creating a luxury marque, aimed primarily at Americans, to compete with BMW and Mercedes. Yet on a per-vehicle basis, Lexus is responsible for more reports of unintended acceleration than the rest of Toyota, federal records show. And more than half of the roughly 300 such complaints to regulators since 2000 about Lexus ES and IS series models — the only two models subject to recall — involve vehicles from years that have not been recalled. Complaints link the ES series to at least 61 injuries, more than any Toyota model except the Camry sedan. Because Toyota

discrimination lawsuits each year, but Baldonado said the Les Schwab suit is among the largest his district has filed in some years. “The EEOC will continue to investigate employers and industries that have put women in certain types of jobs, and men in others,” Baldonado said in a statement. “We hope Les Schwab becomes a model employer of women in the male-dominated tire industry.” In 2008, Les Schwab paid $185,000 to settle a separate suit filed against it by the EEOC alleging race-based discrimination with regard to an employee at one of its stores in Montana. It admitted no wrongdoing as part of the settlement. Les Schwab Tire Centers has more than 6,600 employees and operates more than 420 stores throughout the West, according to the company.

Continued from B1 “Resolution of this dispute allows Les Schwab to continue its strong focus on supporting our employees so that they can deliver excellent customer service,” Hueske added. As part of the settlement, women who applied for sales and service positions with Les Schwab between Dec. 1, 2007, and March 10, 2010, and were declined jobs may receive a portion of the settlement. The EEOC will determine eligibility. The company also agreed to maintain anti-discrimination policies, procedures and training, and periodically report on its compliance to the EEOC, according to the announcement. Mike Baldonado, director of the EEOC’s San Francisco district, said his office believes roughly 800 women are eligible to file claims. The EEOC files numerous sex

Awards Continued from B1 “Budgets are smaller, but it’s forced people to be creative with less.” Common wisdom holds that advertising is often the first budget item scratched in a downturn. While that may still be the case, local advertising agencies and other creative people have stayed busy, Orcelletto said. AdFed has roughly 150 members, a number that has mostly held steady through the last few years, she said. “A few agencies have tightened their belts and let a few people go, but … we’re doing better than a lot of places out there,” Orcelletto said. “I guess our thing is, ‘Flat is the new up.’ If you can stay on an even keel, you are doing well.” One firm that has weathered the downturn well, and even expanded, is Faceout Studios. Formerly known as Design

Lehman Continued from B1 But the examiner, Anton Valukas, also for the first time laid out what the report characterized as “materially misleading” accounting gimmicks that Lehman used to mask the perilous state of its finances. The bank’s bankruptcy, the largest in American history, shook the financial world. Fears that other banks might topple in a cascade of failures eventually led Washington to arrange a sweeping rescue for the nation’s financial system. According to the report, Lehman used what amounted to financial engineering to temporarily shuffle $50 billion off its books in the months before its collapse in September 2008 to conceal its dependence on leverage, or borrowed money. Senior Lehman executives, as well as the bank’s accountants at Ernst & Young, were aware of the moves, according to Valukas, a partner at the law firm Jenner & Block, who filed the report in connection with Lehman’s bankruptcy case. Richard Fuld Jr., Lehman’s former chief executive, certified the misleading accounts, the re-

Works Group, the firm — which got its start designing book covers — this year moved to Bend from Sisters and changed its name. It kept all of its eight employees through the recession and recently launched a new endeavor called Faceout Creative that will, among other things, design logos and help define brand identity for clients. The firm also is launching a publishing arm. “A downturn creates opportunities, it’s not all doom and gloom,” said Torrey Sharp, the firm’s business director as well as a principal. “For us, it was an opportunity to use that time to reinvent, and now we’ve got all kinds of things we can leverage.” In addition to television, print and radio advertising, the Drake Awards also honor sales-promotion and point-of-purchase campaigns, collateral (marketing material), advertising elements (such as logo design) and interactive media, which includes

online and Web-based advertising campaigns. Three judges from outside the region evaluate the material, awarding the best entries in each category a gold, silver or bronze Addy award, which are the annual awards sponsored by the American Advertising Federation. Each gold, silver and bronze Addy winner then advances to a district final, to be held this year in Boise, Idaho. Gold and silver winners from that competition then head to the national final, to be held in Miami in June. Separately, in each category, the three judges award a “best of” award, called the Drake Award. The Drake Award is for local bragging rights only and is not a part of the Addy awards. There also is a Best of Show Drake Award that is the equivalent to the Best Picture Oscar, said Molly Renner, chairwoman of this year’s awards. “Compared to big markets, we’ve got some exceptional cre-

ative talent in a variety of agencies, and the great thing about the awards is there are many agencies that win awards,” Renner said. “Not a lot of people realize in a small town of Bend, compared to a New York City or elsewhere, we have amazing talent.” Sharp’s firm has won a number of Addy and Drake awards over the years, and a few of the firm’s entries have reached the national Addy awards show and won, he said. Sharp said Bend still has a ways to go if it wants to have a nationally recognized creative industry, but it’s not too far off. “We’ve won awards at the national level ... so when you consider little firms here in town are competing against big national firms and we are winning, the Drakes are much more than a local award show,” Sharp said.

port said. “Unbeknownst to the investing public, rating agencies, government regulators, and Lehman’s board of directors, Lehman reverse engineered the firm’s net leverage ratio for public consumption,” Valukas wrote. Fuld was “at least grossly negligent,” the report states. Henry Paulson Jr., who was then the treasury secretary, warned Fuld that Lehman might fail unless it stabilized its finances or found a buyer. Lehman executives engaged in what the report characterized as “actionable balance sheet manipulation,” in addition to “nonculpable errors of business judgment.” The report draws no conclusions as to whether Lehman executives violated securities laws. But it does suggest that enough evidence exists for potential civil claims. Lehman executives are already plaintiffs in civil suits, but have not been charged with criminal wrongdoing. The report comes more than a year and a half after much of Lehman was sold to Barclays, which occupies Lehman’s former offices in Midtown Manhattan. A large portion of the nine-

volume report centers on the accounting maneuvers, known inside Lehman as “Repo 105.” First used in 2001, long before the crisis struck, Repo 105 involved transactions that secretly moved billions of dollars off Lehman’s books at a time the bank was under heavy scrutiny. According to Valukas, Fuld ordered Lehman executives to reduce the bank’s debt levels, and senior officials sought repeatedly to apply Repo 105 to dress up the firm’s results. Other executives named in the examiner’s report in connection with the use of the accounting tool include three former Lehman chief financial officers: Christopher O’Meara, Erin Callan and Ian Lowitt. Charles Perkins, a spokesman for Ernst & Young, said in an e-mailed statement: “Our last audit of the company was for the fiscal year ending Nov. 30, 2007. Our opinion indicated that Lehman’s financial statements for that year were fairly presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and we remain of that view.” Repos, short for repurchase agreements, are a standard practice on Wall Street, rep-

resenting short-term loans that provide sometimes crucial financing. But Lehman used aggressive accounting in its Repo 105 transactions, allowing them to move withering assets off its books to help hit end-of-quarter targets. In a series of e-mail messages cited by the examiner, one Lehman executive writes of Repo 105: “It’s basically window-dressing.” Another responds: “I see … so it’s legally do-able but doesn’t look good when we actually do it? Does the rest of the street do it? Also is that why we have so much BS ((balance sheet)) to Rates Europe?” The first executive replies: “Yes, No and yes. :)” Valukas writes in the report that “colorable claims” could be made against some former Lehman executives and Ernst & Young, meaning that enough evidence existed that could lead to the awarding of damages in a trial. He added that Lehman’s directors were not aware of the accounting engineering.

Ag official says administration agrees with most of Wyden’s bill, but targets two provisions

City officials working toward the development of a 1,500-acre parcel of land known as Juniper Ridge are now focusing their efforts on a southwest section of the planned mixed-use development. Here’s what’s there now.

With a looming $21 million budget shortfall and worries over how to pay for public safety, questions are being raised about the wisdom of pushing forward on a multimillion-dollar planned mixed-use development on Bend’s north side. To date, the city has spent about $17 million on Juniper Ridge, a 1,500-acre parcel of land that extends beyond the urban growth boundary. Most of that money paid for infrastructure in

the southwest corner of the proposed development, where Les Schwab’s corporate headquarters and Suterra LLC now sit. Those land deals, along with the purchase of property by PacifiCorp, have brought in about $9.3 million. But additional land sales have been stalled by a requisite overhaul of the nearby Cooley Road-U.S. Highway 97 interchange, zoning issues and infrastructure projects city officials say must be done before businesses will locate there.

By Keith Chu The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — A top U.S. Agriculture Department official this week praised the goals of a bill U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., recently introduced to increase forest thinning projects in Central and Eastern Oregon forests, but also targeted a few key planks of Wyden’s legislation. Harris Sherman, USDA undersecretary for natural resources and the environment, said President Barack Obama’s administration largely agrees with Wyden’s approach and hopes to work with Wyden to address the USDA’s concerns. But Sherman called two provisions aimed at the timber industry “unrealistic” and fodder for potential lawsuits. Wyden’s bill contains a bevy of provisions but boils down to this: It creates new restrictions on cutting old-growth trees and building new logging roads, while mandating increased harvests of smaller trees in the form of restoration and thinning projects. In his opening statement, Wyden said the timber industry in Central and Eastern Oregon needs a reliable supply of logs to survive. Without that industry, the U.S. won’t be able to take advantage of a potentially large store of renewable biomass energy, Wyden said. “If we don’t move and move quickly, there is a real risk we’re going to lose those folks,” Wyden said. “And we so need them right now as we seek to go forward and tap these exciting opportunities for biomass.” In his written testimony, Sherman said Central and Eastern Oregon forests would be unlikely to meet the goal of 80,000 acres of timber harvest in the first year after Wyden’s bill is passed. Sherman noted that that’s more than double the current annual harvest. See Forests / C3

School board member who shot at vehicle given jail time, probation By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

A Jefferson County School Board member was sentenced to seven days in jail and 24 months’ probation after he chased down a man suspected of poaching on his land and fired shots at a vehicle. In October, Thomas Norton Jr., 35, found a dead doe and fawn on his property. He chased after a Chevrolet Blazer leaving his land and got into a fight with one of the occupants of the vehicle. Later, Norton fired three shots at the Blazer as it drove past him. He pleaded no contest to one count of recklessly endangering another person, a class A misdemeanor. Norton has been a school board member for nearly a year. He runs a family-owned ranching business and is well-known within the community. He did not return calls for comment on Thursday. The Jefferson County schools superintendent released a statement saying Norton’s position on the board is not threatened. “It would not affect his board position. We feel he’s been a valuable board member, and it’s more of a personal matter. School officials don’t have authority over board members,” it read. One of the men in the vehicle, Johnathan Parker, with whom Norton fought, was charged earlier this month with unlawful use of a weapon, felon in possession of a firearm, reckless endangering and unlawful taking of wildlife. Another man involved in the incident is also facing charges. Lauren Dake can be reached at 541-419-8074 or at ldake@bendbulletin.com.

New cuts planned as $4.5M shortfall looms School board votes to trim back workers’ shifts and administrative office hours By Diane S.W. Lee The Bulletin

The Crook County School District will make cuts to administrative office hours and staff hours beginning Monday to help make up for a projected budget shortfall of $4.5 million for the next school year, school officials said. School board members approved the decision during their Feb. 22 meeting, as part of one of several proposed budget reductions to balance the estimated $28 million budget for the 201011 school year. Officials said they won’t know the exact budget deficit until they receive final funding figures from the state. The budget shortfall resulted in part

from an enrollment decrease and use of one-time stimulus money, Superintendent Ivan Hernandez said. The administrative office’s hours will be from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., but the office will close from noon to 1 p.m. for lunch. During the lunch break, incoming calls will be sent to voice mail. All administrative staff members will take their lunch at the same time, resulting in more productive work time, Hernandez said. “People would take lunch anywhere from 11:30 through 1:30, so some would go at 11:30, or some would go at 12, or some would go at 1 for lunch,” Hernandez said. “But now we’re going to get out, get it done, so now we can come back and get to work.” Over the next few months, administrative officials will be taking note of traffic times to adjust office hours to fit the needs of the public, Hernandez said.

Schools Continued from C1 The administrative office is busiest during morning hours and gets the least traffic during lunchtime, School Board member Scott Cooper said. Also, two district office secretaries will have their hours reduced, equivalent to a loss of one full-time position. At the beginning of the school year, one employee left a full-time clerical position, which wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t filled. The district began the school year with seven people on the administrative staff. It is now down to an equivalent of five full-time workers. It was a difficult choice, Hernandez said, between laying off staff and reducing their hours. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No one is pleased to have their hours cut. Unless youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working just for the fun of it, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown accustomed to that income,â&#x20AC;? Hernandez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And we had to figure out how we addressed that entire picture. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve laid off probably in the last two years, 47 people or so, maybe even a few more than that, and so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all figuring out how we can do more with less.â&#x20AC;? School board members decided they wanted to protect teaching positions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our class sizes are getting to the point where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all getting concerned, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re starting to eliminate programs, because of teacher cuts, and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really want to do any more of that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to cut into the quality of education,â&#x20AC;? Cooper said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are continuing to try and turn over every dollar that we can find in this system, so that we can preserve classroom services.â&#x20AC;? Diane S.W.

Power restored after short outage in Bend About 2,400 customers lost power in northwest Bend Thursday morning after a short planned outage for repair work tripped an additional circuit. Tom Gauntt, a spokesman for Pacific Power, said the company had planned a brief outage in the Awbrey Butte area, which was to have affected about 500 customers. When workers went into an underground vault, they tripped another circuit, shutting down power in northwest Bend, including the downtown area, he said. The outage lasted approximately 12 minutes, and power was restored to all customers by about 10:25 a.m.

Suspect flees from Redmond traffic stop A man pulled over Wednesday night in Redmond escaped into the Dry Canyon on foot following a brief pursuit. At about 8:38 p.m., a Deschutes County sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputy pulled over a vehicle for a traffic violation near the intersection of Northwest 10th Street and Oak Avenue. The driver, Jarrod Marcus Allen, 23, of Madras, gave a false name and date of birth, and drove off from the traffic stop, eluding two deputies in northwest Redmond at speeds of near 70 to 80 mph for about six minutes, according to the Deschutes County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office. Allen exited his vehicle near the intersection of Northwest Quince Tree Court and 19th

Street, and headed into the Dry Canyon on foot. Officers from the Redmond Police Department and Oregon State Police, along with two police dogs, assisted in the search for Allen, but were unsuccessful. Passenger Dorian Lynn Allen was arrested on suspicion of possession and delivery of methamphetamine, and lodged at the Deschutes County jail.

Man arrested after cyclist assaulted A man who is suspected of striking a bicyclist with his vehicle and fleeing police in northeast Bend on Wednesday morning was arrested on multiple charges. Shortly before 10:30 a.m., police responded to the 63000 block of Northeast 18th Street, where, according to witnesses who called 911, a suspect had assaulted a cyclist. When the victim attempted to flee, witnesses said, the suspect chased him and struck him with his vehicle. The suspect was seen fleeing as officers arrived and was taken into custody following a brief pursuit at speeds up to 60 mph. Joseph Robert Cade, of Bend, was arrested on suspicion of second-degree assault, hit and run, attempt to elude, criminal mischief and disorderly conduct. He was lodged at the Deschutes County jail. The cyclist, Jesse Blue Long, of Bend, did not require medical attention. Police said Cade and Blue knew each other prior to the incident.

O Jury sends killer to death row in triple murder

A backhoe prepares a ditch for water in the Klamath Irrigation District. The state Supreme Court on Thursday kept alive a lawsuit by farmers seeking payment from the federal government for shutting off water to most of the project in 2001.

Farmers’ water claims kept alive by high court Law doesn’t preclude them from having property rights to water, Oregon justices decide By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — The Oregon Supreme Court on Thursday kept alive claims by Klamath Basin farmers that the federal government should pay them for shutting off water to crops in 2001 to help protected fish survive a drought. A federal appeals court had asked the state Supreme Court for guidance on a 1905 state law that gave water to the Klamath Reclamation Project, a federal irrigation project. The state Supreme Court decided that while the law does not give farmers a property interest in the federally owned water, it does not preclude it either. To resolve the issue, federal

courts need to look to water contracts between farmers and the Klamath Reclamation Project, the Oregon justices said. In 2001, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation shut off water to most of the 200,000 acres of the project straddling the Oregon-California border to maintain water in its main reservoir for endangered suckers and in the Klamath River for threatened salmon. Farmers face the prospect of another shut-off this year, with snowpacks and reservoir levels far below normal. Bill Ganong, a lawyer for the farmers, said they were happy that the Oregon justices agreed that the water could not be separated from ownership of the land, and that they laid out a road map for federal courts to consider the contracts in deciding the property interest issue. The Court of Federal Claims had rejected the farmers’ case in 2007, saying they had no property interest in the water. The case now

goes back to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal District. To be decided are whether the farmers have a property right to the water, and if so, how much money it is worth. “This may not be the end of this long-running dispute, but it does limit the most expansive claims by the irrigators, and focus attention on the terms of the contracts between the irrigators and the United States,” said Todd True, an attorney for the public interest law firm Earthjustice, which represents salmon fishermen and conservation groups that intervened on the side of the government. John Echeverria, a professor at the Vermont Law School representing the Natural Resources Defense Council as a friend of the court, said the case has significant implications across the West for balancing farmers’ interests in irrigating their crops on federal projects against the public’s interest in helping fish and wildlife survive.

O B Death penalty possible in bank bombing SALEM — A judge has ruled that prosecutors can seek the death penalty in the aggravated murder trial of a father and son accused of a December 2008 bank bombing in Woodburn that killed two police officers. Marion County Circuit Judge Thomas Hart on Thursday denied a request to declare the death penalty unconstitutional before the trial of Bruce and Joshua Turnidge begins next fall. The judge told defense lawyers

that he found pretrial testimony by experts arguing against the death penalty to be “unpersuasive” and “unsupported.” The Turnidges face multiple counts of aggravated murder and other charges in the deaths of Woodburn police Capt. Tom Tennant and Oregon State Police Senior Trooper William Hakim.

Controversial group moved off UO campus EUGENE — A discussion group known for hosting speakers with views considered anti-

HILLSBORO — Ricardo Serrano, who killed a mother and her sons in an act of vengeance against his wife’s lover, will die for his crimes, a jury decided Thursday. Serrano, 34, sat impassively as the jurors in Washington County Circuit Court Judge Steven Price’s courtroom all raised their hands when he asked them if Serrano murdered Melody Dang and her two sons deliberately; if he’s likely to commit future acts of violence; and if he should be put to death. The jurors had to agree on all three questions for Serrano to receive the death penalty. If even one juror disagreed, he would have received life in prison without the possibility of parole. Price will formally pronounce Serrano’s sentence on Tuesday. At that time, friends and family of the victims will be allowed to speak. Serrano waived his right to speak to the jury before they began their deliberations. Washington County Sheriff’s deputies hustled Serrano out of the courtroom after the jury’s decision. Price then debriefed the jurors for about an hour. He noted that some of them had asked him about counseling. They declined to speak to the news media and were escorted from the courthouse by jail deputies. Serrano shot Dang, 37, and her sons Steven, 15, and Jimmy, 12, at their Bethanyarea home the night of Nov. 2, 2006. He was seeking revenge against Dang’s partner, Mike Nguyen. Nguyen had an affair with Serrano’s wife, Melinda, and got her pregnant. Prosecutor Rob Bletko declined to comment after the sentence was read. Since no physical evidence tied Serrano to the crime, Bletko used cell phone records and a sneaker print to prove he was at the scene at the time of the crime.

Continued from C1 “These specific levels of treatment may result in unrealistic expectations on the part of communities and forest product stakeholders that the agency would accomplish the quantity of treatment required,” Sherman said. Sherman also said a threeyear moratorium on administrative appeals of thinning projects could be counterproductive. “With no established administrative method to review decisions and areas of disagreement, we could see more litigation during the interim period as a result of having no administrative review process,” Sherman said. Wyden said he was glad Sherman endorsed the objectives of the bill and promised to work with the administration on a path forward. The measure needs to pass out of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee before it can receive a vote on the Senate floor. “We look forward to being as creative as humanly possible on this,” Wyden said. John Shelk, president of Prineville-based Ochoco Lumber, and Andy Kerr, a consultant and former Oregon Wild executive director, testified Wednesday in support of Wyden’s bill. The pair, who represented opposite sides during the state’s timber wars of the late 1980s and early 1990s, were key negotiators on the bill.

“I think it is fair to say that it is not the bill any of us would have written, but we believe it is a workable compromise that will improve the health of Oregon’s east-side forests, and help to preserve the livelihoods and tax base of our rural communities,” Shelk said. After the hearing, Shelk said the bill represented a carefully negotiated agreement between timber interests and environmentalists, which would likely fall apart if any major changes were made. “We’d be very hesitant to change any substantial piece of this legislation,” Shelk said. Sherman said he was also concerned about a bill that creates separate directives for a small set of forests. He said the president plans to use similar concepts and existing laws “to restore and sustain forest landscapes in a collaborative, open manner.” After the hearing, Sherman’s staff blocked The Bulletin from speaking to him, saying he was feeling ill and would not be able to answer questions. Grant County Public Forest Commission member Larry Blasing said he appreciates what Wyden’s trying to accomplish, but the bill takes on the wrong problem. “Management science is not the problem,” said Blasing, who blamed federal judges for tying up logging and thinning projects. “The Forest Service knows how to manage the lands; the problem is they don’t know how to write an environmental as-

The HUBZone’s biggest problem

en. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., is trying to rein in abuse of a federal program designed to help businesses in economically depressed areas. His attempt is praiseworthy, and we wish

him the best of luck. The Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) program, which was created 13 years ago, gives small businesses in certain areas a boost through favorable federal contracting, according to the Government Accountability Office. HUBZones are, generally speaking, areas with notably high unemployment. Meanwhile, businesses that want to receive HUBZone preferences must meet a number of criteria. Their principal offices must be located within a HUBZone, for instance, as must at least 35 percent of their employees. The GAO has been pounding away at the HUBZone program’s lax oversight for quite some time. Last year, for instance, it released a report detailing some of the abuses it had discovered in four metropolitan areas, all within Texas, Alabama and California. One memorable example of abuse involved a ground maintenance services company in Alabama that claimed as its principal office a trailer in a residential trailer park. Not only is the trailer not an office, the GAO found, but it “is occupied by someone not associated with the company.” One example of abuse involving a residential trailer “office” in Alabama might be worth a chuckle, partly because the GAO report features a picture of said trailer labeled, ominously, “Principal Office for Case Study 2 Firm.” But extrapolate the problem across all 50 states, and it becomes a little harder to find the humor. In 2007, according to the GAO, Uncle Sam dished out about $8 billion worth of contracts to HUBZone companies, many of which should not have received special consideration. Preventing dishonest businesses from reaching into the HUBZone cookie jar is certainly a good cause, and we’re glad Sen. Merkley has taken it up. We do wish, however, that somebody would fix another problem bedeviling the program. Many companies that do meet HUBZone criteria can’t participate because of the speed at which gov-

ernment operates. If a melting glacier is a hare, then the federal government in this context is a tortoise. The problem begins with the program’s use of unemployment rates to designate HUBZones. Because unemployment rates fluctuate, HUBZone designations were supposed to come and go, an official with the Small Business Administration told us last year. But when the federal government couldn’t update the program as often as shifting economic conditions require, Congress simply threw in the towel. Thus, if a county didn’t qualify for HUBZone status based on information gleaned from the 2000 census, it was deemed ineligible until the feds could use information from the 2010 census — no matter how high the unemployment rate in the affected area actually soared in the interim. Deschutes County is one such “lucky” place. Because economic conditions were relatively good here a decade ago, Deschutes isn’t eligible for HUBZone status. Never mind that the unemployment rate in January, 13.4 percent, was exactly the same as in Jefferson County, which is a HUBZone. Deschutes County businesses are simply out of luck and will be for at least another year. If the federal government can’t fix this problem, then what’s the point of continuing the HUBZone program at all? A policy that gives preference to small businesses in struggling areas makes sense only if it isn’t abused widely by businesses that don’t need help, and only if it doesn’t stiff struggling businesses in areas that meet its economic criteria, but not its unrealistic schedule. Merkley is taking aim at abuse, and that’s good. However, until areas can gain HUBZone status promptly in times of economic difficulty, the program will remain inherently abusive to businesses in places like Deschutes County. If that can’t be changed, then killing the HUBZone program will be the best way to fix it.

Rep. Wu’s big makeover

ep. David Wu, D-Ore., has undergone a striking reincarnation. We were surprised to read this week that Wu has waged war on federal earmarks directed to for-profit companies. “I applaud the (House Appropriations Committee) ban on appropriations for for-profit companies and the related effort to ensure that companies seeking to work with the Defense Department receive funding based on a competitive, merit-based process,” Wu said. Talk about an extreme makeover. Not so very long ago, Wu was the epicenter of an audacious move to earmark $2 million to a company in his district. In April 2006, Marines banned polyester T-shirts in combat — concerned about the severe burns the shirts could contribute to. Guess which congressman inserted an earmark directing more than $2 million to a company in

his district for such T-shirts for the Marines? And guess which congressman got thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from the executives of the local business? Here’s a hint: His name starts with a “w” and it rhymes with “do.” Wu told The Oregonian at the time that he “didn’t know there was a melting problem” with the T-shirts, and he was “horrified by the implication that there’s a connection” between the earmark and the campaign contributions. Maybe, with his newfound concern for such earmarks, Wu did learn something about the wisdom of telling the Department of Defense what products from his district it needs. But is that the kind of lesson an Oregon congressman should have to learn on the job? Wu’s flip-flop, at least, is a candidate for brassiest of the year.

In My View Magnet schools get too much ink By Daphne McNeely Bulletin guest columnist

realize that I may not have been brought up on the right side of the tracks. I am aware that I would have to do something pretty spectacular to garner any recognition from the community or those across town. Maybe making a gargantuan sign and attaching it to the top of my car might help. Have you ever just sat and read a book to a child? Ever engulfed a child in your arms, encircled them with a book and took them on an inspirational journey? Maybe been begged to read that worn-out, dog-eared, got-it-downto-memory book, over and over again? Seemed like a gift, didn’t it? Seemed like a magical escape. First, let me say Bend is an amazing city, waking up to see snow-covered peaks and getting to appreciate all this beauty. I love this town. I have decided to raise my boys here. I have decided to make my life here among the sagebrush. A little thing, though, has gotten up my nose. Every morning, I walk the few steps it takes me to get to my mailbox, and I get my morning paper. I tug it out of the box. I turn it around a couple of times to see if Billy Graham is still with us. I sometimes even stand in the middle of my quiet street and take in a story or two. It’s enjoyable. It’s reading. I just can’t get enough of that reading, you know.

I get through section A, then onto section B. I didn’t know that Bend only had three schools. Seems a bit suspect to me. I see a lot more yellow school buses covered in road sand on my way to taking my own kids to school. Could three schools need that many buses? Aha, I find out later, there are about 26 schools here in Bend. So, why do only about three schools get prominently featured in my newspaper? I don’t need to go too far to find out. There are these schools called magnet schools that seem to be attracting a lot of attention. It seems simple enough. By their very nature, magnets attract. Maybe I can get a piece of jewelry with a magnet in it. This way I could attract some attention without making that titanic sign I alluded to earlier. Then I think, maybe the newspaper is on a tight budget and can only reimburse their photographers’ travel expenses within a one-mile radius of downtown. Maybe we should take up a collection. Call on public transportation (another story entirely). And it’s not only magnets that attract. I find those schools with deep pockets also garner some newspaper face time. My kids attend schools on the other side of the tracks from, well, the tracks. I love my kids’ schools. The schools they go to are real communities. I get the privilege of interacting with their teachers, wonderful people who have dedicated their lives to making each

student believe that they can be successful. I know that within the walls of the schools there are journeys being taken every day, with that joy I call reading. Maybe not so much with the arms wrapped around the child’s shoulder, but nonetheless magical adventures being embarked upon every day. It seems to me something to celebrate. Something to recognize. Of course, I am not saying that magnets repel reading, or that deep pockets are a bad thing. I am just trying to say that sometimes things happen across the tracks that might deserve a little recognition. How about when a local school wins a national grant to host a reading week? That seems pretty important to me. A week of inviting family and friends into school during lunchtime and having them share a book with their child. Important to me. Not only that, but all kids like to see their schools written up in the local paper. Important to them. So, how about it? Let’s start including all local schools within the pages of your paper. Did I forget to mention that newspapers can take people to places they wouldn’t normally get to each day? Who knows? In the future, today’s students might just walk down to their mailboxes or down the halls of their homes, and flip through the paper and read it. Daphne McNeely lives in Bend.

How Central Oregonians can help the less fortunate T JANET here are all sorts of ways to measure the depth of the current recession in Central Oregon. Unemployment is way up, as are foreclosures. Home sales are down. And demand for food at shelters, food pantries and other programs has risen by about 15 percent in the last year. NeighborImpact supplied the vast bulk of that food, more than 1.5 million pounds in the fiscal year that ended last June 30. This year, says Sharon Miller, NeighborImpact’s executive director, the organization that serves literally dozens of agencies in the tricounty area will deliver more than 1.78 million pounds of food before July 1. Until it goes home with someone who needs it, that food all has to be kept somewhere. About half of it comes from right here in Central Oregon through the Fresh Alliance program. NeighborImpact collects from grocery stores large and small, gathering in everything from bread to meat to

apples to cheese. The food is good, though some of it must be repackaged and frozen if it is to remain that way. The balance comes from the Oregon Food Bank. Storing all that food is no easy trick, as you might imagine, and cupboard space has not kept up with food supply in recent years. In fact, NeighborImpact has only about 1,000 feet of storage, including freezer space, Miller says, and that limits the amount of food it can keep on hand. Now the organization is doing something about it, undertaking a remodeling project of major proportions. Full cost of the project is less than $250,000, most of which will come from grants from foundations, the Oregon Food Bank and even the Department of Environmental Quality. DEQ gave the organization a $133,000 award to improve its food recovery program, which is what the warehouse expansion will do. If the logic of the link between the state’s environmental agency and a food bank operator escapes you,

STEVENS think of this: Every bit of food collected locally would have ended up in the local landfill had NeighborImpact not picked it up. When work is complete, NeighborImpact will have increased its storage space to about 4,000 square feet, up from the current 1,000. It will be able to take in at least 800,000 pounds of fresh local food each year, and Miller’s goal is to be able to collect a million pounds of fresh food a year. Freezer space will triple, and St. Vincent de Paul in Crook County will be given the organization’s current walk-in freezer, allowing it to store and distribute

more food than it can today. NeighborImpact will be able to add a second truck and driver to pick up food in the region, and food bank workers will be able to use a forklift inside the warehouse. Currently, everything stored there must be carried by hand. Government and foundation grants are not enough to pay the full cost of the expansion, Miller says. The remainder, about $30,000, needs to be raised right here in Central Oregon. To that end, the organization’s Feed the Need campaign is asking local residents and businesses to contribute to the project — you can find out all about it at the organization’s Web site, neighborimpact.org. It’s a worthy cause, in my book. Thanks in part to NeighborImpact’s food bank, the Family Kitchen, a community food provider, is able to offer hot dinners two nights a week, sit-down lunches three days a week and a sack lunch on Saturdays. Moreover, the families and individuals who eat there often may take home

bread and the like to help stretch their limited dollars. The Bend Community Center offers meals on Sunday, again in part because of the food bank. And food pantries will give local families almost 35,000 food boxes, each of which will feed the recipients for three to five days, this year. You might think it takes nerve to ask Central Oregonians to contribute to anything in these tough times, but actually, the timing couldn’t be better. We can see the need around us as we might not be able to in better times, and the amount NeighborImpact hopes to collect locally is relatively small. Chances are, given how many people have been served by the food bank this year, you or someone you know has avoided hunger because of the food bank. That makes giving as easy and as important as helping a neighbor in need. Janet Stevens is deputy editor of The Bulletin.

David Kimche was an Israeli spy and a diplomat New York Times News Service JERUSALEM — David Kimche, a former Israeli spymaster and diplomat who was involved in some of the country’s most delicate foreign escapades, including the Iran-Contra affair, died Monday. He was 82. The cause was brain cancer, his wife, Ruth, said. Kimche joined the Mossad in the early 1950s. Employing a combination of cunning and charm, he climbed its ranks over two decades to become deputy director. In 1980, Kimche became director general of Israel’s Foreign Ministry, a position he held for the next six years. He then continued to work as an ambassador at large and became known for his efforts to advance peace initiatives with the Palestinians.

Former AP reporter and bureau chief John Nance dies The Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio — John Nance, a former Associated Press reporter and photographer who covered the Vietnam War and later oversaw the news cooperative’s operations in the Philippines, died Tuesday of cancer. He was 74. Nance was named the AP’s bureau chief in the Philippines in 1968. While there, he wrote about the Tasaday tribe, discovered in the rain forest in 1971, and created a foundation that brought them health care and agriculture. During his reporting on the Tasaday, Nance befriended aviator Charles Lindbergh, who had helped preserve the tribe’s home.

Ben Westlund Oregon State Treasurer September 3, 1949 - March 7, 2010 In life, there are those who take the road less traveled. Oregon State Treasurer Ben Westlund’s road was miles past where the pavement ends. His path took him from Apple Valley, Calif; to the shores of Lake Oswego; to the painted hills of Eastern Oregon; to rural Deschutes County; and then to the statehouse, where he served as a legislator and as Treasurer. In Central Oregon and then the Capitol, where Westlund spent much of the past 13 years since being first elected in 1996, he was known for his easygoing wit and his signature sign off: “Down the trail.” Westlund’s journey ended too soon. He died March 7 in Bend, when he lost his battle to cancer. He was 60. The son of oilman Bernard “Bud” Westlund and Dorothy Reynolds Westlund, Ben was born Sept. 3, 1949 in Long Beach, Calif. The oldest of three boys, Ben spent his first 16 years in Apple Valley, California, the successful “high desert community” co-founded by his father. One of Ben’s favorite memories of Apple Valley is when the famed country western singing and acting team of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans purchased his original boyhood home. At the time, Ben asked his father, “Dad, who was that man who just rode up on that big motorcycle and bought our house?” Proudly Ben’s father told him that he had just sold their home to Roy Rogers. Ben quickly retorted, “Dad, you shouldn’t have sold him our house until he actually rode up here on his famous horse, Trigger.” During his early youth, Ben spent summer vacations with his family on Decatur Island in the San Juan Islands of Washington state. Ben especially enjoyed sail boat racing and exploring the tide pools, where every new low tide was a fresh adventure. The family, originally from Washington, returned to their Northwest roots after the California military schools Ben and his brothers were attending closed in the mid 1960s. The three Westlund sons were enrolled by their parents in a new “experimental” school that added boys to what was then a traditionally all girls’ school, St. Helens Hall (SHH) in Portland. The new school was called Bishop Dagwell Hall (BDH) and the two eventually merged to become Oregon Episcopal School. Ben was elected student body president in his senior year. He attended and graduated from Whitman College in Walla Walla, Wash., where he earned a degree in Education and History and belonged to the Sigma Chi Fraternity. After college, Ben headed east and, like this father, looked for opportunity in the high desert – but in Oregon. He joined with two of his high school friends, John Flowerree and Dan Driscoll, to start a successful mining venture in Christmas Valley, Ore., called American Fossil.The company mined diatomaceous earth which they sold as kitty litter under the name of “Kitty Diggins.” After a stint in Portland with a firm called Management Marketing Associates, Ben used his share of the profits from the sale of American Fossil to buy a ranch in the Oregon outback, a 6,000-acre spread outside Mitchell known as the Juniper Butte Ranch. A few years later, he bought a 3,000-pound bull named “Reggie” and found success in the cattle genetics business. Reggie helped to launch a business venture in Oregon called High Country Herefords and one in Oklahoma called Taurus. Reggie was a superlative breeding bull. He was named the 1987 Top Selling Hereford Bull at the Annual National Western Stock Show in Denver, considered the “grand daddy” of national livestock shows. Reggie’s superior genetics were purchased by hundreds of Hereford breeders in both North and South America. Westlund married his wife, Libby Bishop, a high school classmate and friend, in 1987. After selling his registered Hereford herd in 1990 they settled on the Deschutes River in Tumalo, outside of Bend. They have two children; B.J., 21, and Taylor, 17. As he learned from his upbringing, family came first. Ben’s family was his pride and joy. He was a devoted, doting father and husband. When Ben wasn’t at home, including his many years at the Capitol, he dutifully called every night at 8 p.m. to read bedtime stories and say goodnight to his family.

A lifetime fan of baseball, specifically the Los Angeles Dodgers, Ben actually went to fantasy camp for several years with the Dodgers in Vero Beach, Florida. He even had his own “Dodgers” baseball trading card with his picture on the front and his stats on the back. Westlund also was part-owner in the 1990s of a minor league baseball team, the Bend Bandits, which was his effort to keep baseball in Bend. While it was fun to own a team, Ben recounted that the best part of the experience was traveling the state with his kids, watching their team play. Ben was adept at almost every sport he tried. On Lake Oswego, Ben became an accomplished water skier. Even though he took up golf in his late 40s, he became proficient enough to win the 1996 Bud Westlund Memorial Golf Tournament, which his family continues to sponsor each year in Apple Valley. Ben had a nostalgic and sentimental side, too. For example, after Ben’s father passed away in 1976, Ben researched and recovered one of the original cars his father used to drive in Apple Valley: a baby blue 1953 Cadillac Eldorado convertible, the second car off the production line that year. Incidentally, the first car went to then President Eisenhower. Ben completely restored the old car, and he could be seen piloting in it in many parades, with his election signs hanging from the side. Ben was actually considering a career in health care by becoming a nurse when a friend convinced him to run for the Legislature instead. In his first political race, Westlund was elected to the Oregon Legislature House of Representatives in 1996, and he quickly earned a reputation as a problem solver and as an advocate for Oregon families. In 2003, he was appointed to the Senate and successfully won the seat in 2004. In his 12 years in the state Legislature, he was a co-chairman of the budget-drafting Joint Ways and Means Committee and championed legislation that created the State’s Rainy Day Fund, Public Safety Memorial Fund and the Oregon Cultural Trust. Because he led efforts to create the cultural trust and help Oregon’s arts, cultural and historical preservation programs, he was given the distinction of being the first person to be issued an Oregon Cultural Trust license plate – plate 0001. He also was the chief legislative advocate for creating the Cascades Campus of Oregon State University in Central Oregon, and led efforts to protect the Metolius River. Westlund survived an initial bout with lung cancer in 2003, and Oregon political insiders still talk about the powerful speech he gave upon his return to the Legislature that year. A political moderate who started his career as a Republican, Westlund bucked his party and was the cosponsor of legislation to give marriage-like rights to same-sex couples. He staged a brief campaign for governor as an independent in 2006. He fought for consumer protection and was the co-author of Oregon’s health system reforms in 2007, and was elected as Oregon’s 27th State Treasurer in 2008. He is the only state treasurer to be elected from east of the Cascades in recent memory. As Treasurer, he gained national attention for his initiative to expand investment transparency and led a series of reforms to increase accountability and options in the Oregon 529 College Savings Plan. He was instrumental in securing a $20 million settlement in 2009 for families who are saving for their children’s futures. He worked to the end and he was a hands-on, creative and collaborative leader who sought to bring out the best in his staff. In the final quarter of 2009, the returns earned by the State Treasury investment division were in the top 1 percent of large public pension funds. In his speeches, he frequently joked that while folks can learn lifelong lessons in kindergarten, you can learn a lot about being Treasurer from ranching. For instance, watch out for predators, sunshine is the best disinfectant, and watch where you step. He is survived by his wife, Libby, and children, B.J., and Taylor, all of Bend, Ore.; brother Dr. Richard and his wife Jana, of Lake Oswego, Ore.; brother Morris and his wife, Paula, of Lake Oswego; nieces and nephews Jason, Erika and Lauren of Lake Oswego; nephew David of Tigard, Ore.; nephew John of Livermore, Calif.; aunt Grace Reynolds of Longview, Wash.; and several cousins. Westlund’s legacy will live on in Oregon, in the form of the cultural trust and public safety fund, which provides money to families of officers killed or injured in the line of duty. His legacy also will live on in the memories of friends and Oregonians whose lives he touched, and those who spoke with him, or were fortunate enough to meet him in his travels down almost every road – paved or not – across the state he loved. Down the trail, Ben. Down the trail.

THE PUBLIC IS INVITED TO MEMORIAL CELEBRATIONS IN BEND AND AT THE STATE CAPITOL. • The Central Oregon celebration will be at 2 p.m. on Friday, March 12, at the Riverhouse Conference Center, 2850 NW Rippling River Court in Bend. • He will be honored at the Oregon Capitol in Salem at a public ceremony in the House chamber at 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 13. In lieu of flowers or gifts, the family asks that remembrances be donated to the Ben Westlund Memorial Fund, which will benefit the Opportunity Foundation of Central Oregon. Donations can be made at any branch of US Bank or sent to P.O. Box 480, Redmond, Ore. 97756.

Juniper Continued from C1 The hurdle posed by an Oregon Department of Transportation requirement that the city must upgrade a northern section of U.S. Highway 97 is former Bend Mayor Allan Bruckner’s main concern about the Juniper Ridge project. In 2008, ODOT determined that traffic load would overwhelm nearby roadways and told the city to identify a funding source for an estimated $30 million to $50 million in road improvements before it could move forward with significant portions of the project. “To me, the whole question is, should they spend all this money on infrastructure when they don’t even know if they can access … the highway, and that’s going to be huge money,” said Bruckner, who has lived in Bend for 40 years. Bruckner said he has closely followed development at Juniper Ridge and had even stronger objections to the project before the city parted ways with its former developer. Bruckner, 73, does not ques-

tion the need for additional industrial lands in the city, but said he questions such huge investments given current economic conditions. “Right now, we have various demands on our city finances, and I think something with a long-term investment needs to be delayed slightly,” he said.

Working with ODOT But Juniper Ridge Project Manager David Ditz said the city is in negotiations with ODOT on a plan to do incremental upgrades to nearby roadways at a much lower initial cost. The agreement would mean new businesses coming into Juniper Ridge could not create more than a total of 300 vehicle trips per day, and that no more than 50 of those trips could occur between 4 and 6 p.m. ODOT spokesman Peter Murphy said traffic load in the area has dropped with the onset of the recession, presumably because of job losses. That allows the agency to give the city more leeway when it comes to car trips to and from Juniper Ridge, Murphy said. The ODOT agreement will be

part of an application to rezone about 200 net acres inside the current UGB on the southwest side of Juniper Ridge to light industrial use. “The land is currently zoned urban reserve, and we can’t sell land without that zone change,” Ditz said. He expects the rezoning process to be complete by September, which will clear the way for the city to put a subdivision of 12 industrial lots up for sale.

‘Economic imbalance’ Alistair Paterson, who has lived in Bend for 2½ years, also is concerned about prioritizing Juniper Ridge given the current economy. Paterson said the city should focus on avoiding cuts to public safety budgets as well as encouraging economic development throughout the city, not just on the northeast side. “I strongly object to taxpayer money being spent on speculative, optimistic programs when other services are being curtailed,” said Paterson, who said his background is in real estate but he now works as a communications consultant.

cluding a keynote speech at a recent Economic Development for Central Oregon meeting, present him with opportunities to talk to locals about a wide range of issues, including Juniper Ridge. Paterson said Juniper Ridge is helping create a “tremendous economic imbalance” in the city. He said the city’s focus on the northeast side has left other areas with projects undone, like a planned upgrade to Reed Market Road near his house, sidelined because of budget constraints. “My experience in various communities is that great communities are only as strong as their weakest part,” Paterson said. “If you want a community to be vibrant, you should not only focus on your strengths, you need to focus on your weaknesses, because the strengths will take care of themselves.”

Councilors weigh in Bend City Councilor Jim Clinton said the city specifically set aside sections of land at Juniper Ridge for business use, which increases the overall economic health of the community. Clinton has convinced his fellow councilors that an applied

INTERNATIONAL

research center on the site will attract high-tech businesses, which bring jobs that have a higher “multiplier effect.” “Each job in the high-tech business generally has a salary at least twice the approximate average of the private-sector wage,” Clinton said. “So each job multiplies itself in all other industries in the community, like retail, housing, buying cars and going out to eat. They have more money to do it, so the multiplier is bigger.” Clinton said the concern about public safety funding is valid, but that money comes from the city’s general fund. Juniper Ridge is funded separately and in various ways, including an urban renewal district and a line of credit that will be paid off with land sales, said City Finance Director Sonia Andrews. Councilor Oran Teater said the city is spending money on infrastructure at Juniper Ridge to make lands there salable. He understands residents’ resistance to incur big costs right now but said it is the only way to recoup the city’s investment through land sales. “You’re in a bit of a catch-22 because you need to sell dirt, but

you can’t sell the dirt without the infrastructure, and you can’t put in the infrastructure without spending money,” Teater said.

Industrial land issues Roger Lee, executive director of Economic Development for Central Oregon, said adding light industrial lands to the city is a crucial move to help diversify the local economy. “Bend has had a lot of growth — commercial, residential and so forth — but there has been almost no new industrial property added,” he said. “So we’ve gotten to a point where Juniper Ridge is very important because it’s our only inventory.” Bend’s dearth of industrial land has kept businesses away that might otherwise have located here, Lee said. “I can’t tell you the number of clients who have come through and said they were really interested to come here,” Lee said. “Then they ask about available light industrial sites, and there just aren’t any.” Cindy Powers can be reached at 541-617-7812 or at cpowers@bendbulletin.com.

GOLF Woods likely to return at Masters, AP sources say DORAL, Fla. — Tiger Woods intends to remain out of golf at least until the Masters, two people with knowledge of his plans told The Associated Press on Thursday. Woods has been Tiger Woods practicing at Isleworth near his Orlando home the last two weeks, and swing coach Hank Haney flew there during the weekend to work with him. That led to speculation Thursday he was close to playing again. The two people, who spoke on condition of anonymity because only Woods is supposed to release such information, say he is likely to play first at Augusta National in April. Woods has not played since Nov. 15, when he won the Australian Masters in Melbourne for his 82nd career victory. Twelve days later, he crashed his SUV into a tree near his Florida home, setting off shocking revelations that he had been cheating on his wife. Several reports said Woods was planning his return at Bay Hill for the Arnold Palmer Invitational, where he is the defending champion and a six-time winner on a course that is a short drive from his home. — The Associated Press

South African takes lead vs. elite field at CA Championship DORAL, Fla. — Five birdies were enough to put Charl Schwartzel among the leaders at the CA Championship. No mistakes is what put in the lead alone Thursday on a rough-and-tumble day at Doral. Schwartzel, who got into the elite field with two victories in his native South Africa at the start of the season, managed to get around the famed Blue Monster without a bogey on his way to a 5-under 67 and a one-shot lead in the World Golf Championship event. Not so fortunate were Ernie Els, Robert Allenby and Vijay Singh, all of them poised to claim a share of the lead or better until they stepped to the tee on the 443-yard closing hole at Doral that was playing into a wind strong enough to knock the caps of some players. Singh was in the lead until putting his tee shot into the water and making double bogey, giving him a 68. Els was tied for the lead until his approach around the palm trees came up short and into the water. He scrambled for a bogey and also wound up with a 68. Allenby, who had a fiveshot lead early in the round when he was at 8 under through 12 holes, finished with four straight bogeys, the last one when he blasted out of a back bunker and saw his ball roll off the green and nearly into the water. Francesco Molinari of Italy was tied for the lead until he went into the water and made double bogey, giving him a 69 and putting him in the group that included Pebble Beach winner Dustin Johnson and Paul Casey. Defending champion Phil Mickelson opened with a 71. — The Associated Press

EUGENE — For the second time in four years, Mountain View is heading to the boys basketball state semifinals. Four players scored in double figures for the Cougars on Thursday night as the Intermountain Conference champions topped Glencoe of Hillsboro 5950 at McArthur Court in the championship quarterfinal round of the Class 5A state championships. Mark Claar scored a game-high 16 points, James Reid Inside added 11, and Kenny • State tourney Bent and Seth Brent scores and scored 10 points schedules, apiece for Mountain Page D2 View, which will face Crescent Valley of • Bend High girls’ season Corvallis in a semifinal contest tonight ends, at 8:15. Page D3 Crescent Valley (18-9), the No. 2 team from the Mid-Willamette Conference, advanced to the semifinal round with a 51-36 victory over Summit of Bend in another quarterfinal game Thursday night. Using a 2-3 zone defense to limit the Crimson Tide’s two 6-foot-5-inch posts, Kory Kirwan and Travis VanLoo, the Cougars held Glencoe, the Northwest Oregon Conference runner-up, to eight points below its season average. Mountain View senior center Ryan Fisher was a game-changer coming off the bench, ending the night with an impressive six blocked shots to go with his six points and seven rebounds, all in just 14 minutes on the court.

LOS ANGELES — Isaiah Thomas scored 15 points and third-seeded Washington roared back from a big second-half deficit to keep its NCAA tournament hopes alive with a 59-52 victory over Oregon State in the Pac-10 quarterfinals Thursday night. Matthew Bryan-Amaning and Elston Turner added 10 points apiece for the Huskies (22-9), who trailed 35-23 with 16½ minutes to play before making a 23-4 run over the next eight minutes, playing with all the passion that this underachieving team lacked in the first half. Washington will face Stanford in Friday’s semifinals as the only non-California school left in the Pac-10 field. Regular-season champion California will face UCLA in the first game. Roeland Schaftenaar had 17 points and Jared Cunningham added 15 for the sixth-seeded Beavers (14-17). See Beavers / D4

Summit’s Jesse Heinly drives around the Crescent Valley defense in the Class 5A boys basketball state quarterfinals Thursday night at McArthur Court in Eugene. Heinly scored seven points for the Storm.

EUGENE — Summit finally ran out of steam. After winning two playoff games on the road to get to the state tournament, the Storm fell to Crescent Valley of Corvallis 51-36 Thursday night in the championship quarterfinal round of the Class 5A boys basketball state championships. Crescent Valley will play Mountain View of Bend in a championship semifinal game tonight at 8:15. Summit will face Glencoe of Hillsboro in a fourth-place semifinal game today at 10:45 a.m. “Tomorrow will be a better day,” said Storm senior Matt Meagher, who led Summit on Thursday night with 10 points. “It was a bit of an experience thing. They (the Raiders) were here last year. This was the first time any of us have played in something like this.” The Raiders (18-9 overall), the No. 2 state seed from the Mid-Willamette Conference, made their move in the second quarter after the first period ended in a 6-6 tie.

LOS ANGELES — After making a clever move and a slick layup for his third basket in the first 100 seconds, Jerome Randle says he just had a feeling he could hit every shot he took in California’s Pac-10 tournament opener. Oregon coach Ernie Kent was less forthcoming after possibly his final game with the Ducks. Randle scored 22 points without missing a shot in the first half, and the top-seeded Golden Bears easily advanced to the semifinals with a 90-74 victory Thursday. Patrick Christopher had 21 points and five assists for the Bears (22-9), who followed up their first outright conference title in a half-century by sending home the weary Ducks (1616) with a remarkable half from Randle, who went eight for eight with four three-pointers while staking Cal to a 16-point lead. The conference player of the year set the tone in an early ninesecond span when he hit a threepointer from three steps behind the line before stealing the ball and driving past two defenders for that breathtaking layup.

The Associated Press NEW YORK — Chris Wright scored 27 points and the No. 22 Hoyas sailed past third-ranked Syracuse in the quarterfinals of the Big East tournament. Syracuse (28-4) is left to wonder whether it’s done enough to earn a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, but also has to worry about Arinze Onuaku.

Double-OT defeat ends Bears’ season Blazers Football come back to beat Warriors Bulletin staff report

• Merlin Olsen passes away: Hall of Famer Merlin Olsen, who helped form one of the NFL’s greatest defensive lines before embarking on a successful career in television, died Thursday after a battle with cancer. He was 69. Olsen was a member of the Los Angeles Rams’ “Fearsome Foursome” along with Deacon Jones, Lamar Lundy and Rosey Grier in the 1960s. He later starred on NFL broadcasts, commercials, and as Jonathan Garvey on the TV series “Little House on the Prairie.” • D.C. school hires female coach: A high school in Washington, D.C., has hired a woman to coach its varsity football team. Natalie Randolph will be introduced Friday as the head coach at Calvin Coolidge Senior High School. She is believed to be the first woman to coach a high school varsity football team in the U.S. The 29-year-old Randolph was an assistant coach at another D.C. high school, H.D. Woodson, from 2006-08. • Man convicted in slaying of Broncos player: Suspected gang member Willie Clark was found guilty of murder Thursday in the drive-by shooting death of Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams. A jury returned the verdict after an 11-day trial and a day and a half of deliberation. Clark faces a sentence of life in prison. Williams was killed on New Year’s Day 2007.

Winter sports • Baker leads Iditarod at halfway point: Satellite tracking shows three mushers have left Cripple, the halfway point in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. John Baker had the early lead Thursday, followed by four-time champion Martin Buser and Bruce Linton. The jockeying for the lead remains fluid as mushers take a mandatory 24-hour layover and two eight-hour rests. • Vonn crashes, will still ski: Lindsey Vonn crashed and bruised her right knee during the World Cup giant slalom Thursday in Germany, but is expected to compete today in the super-G in an attempt to win her third straight overall title. With two races remaining in the season, Vonn leads Maria Riesch of Germany by 165 points. Also, the International Skiing Federation confirmed Vonn as the super-combined World Cup champion. She already had secured the downhill and super-G titles.

EUGENE — It’s all over for the Lava Bears. Bend High battled West Albany to a deadlock through four quarters and most of two overtimes Thursday before the Bulldogs’ Samantha Siegner sank a free throw with four seconds remaining in the second extra period that ended the Bears’ season with a 35-34 defeat in consolation play at the Class 5A girls basketball state tournament. Thursday’s setback at McArthur Court followed a 43-37 quarterfinal loss to Crater on Wednesday night and eliminated Intermountain Conference-champion Bend (17-11) from the eight-team tourney. West Albany (17-9), the No. 1 postseason seed from the MidWillamette Conference, advances to meet Hermiston on Saturday morning for fourth place. “Those are the kind of games we’ve been winning,” noted Todd

Cougars Continued from D1 “The key early on was Ryan Fisher,” said Cougar coach Craig Reid, who also guided Mountain View to the 2007 state semifinals. “He was huge defensively. He came out aggressive and attacking.” After leading 47-33 going into the fourth quarter, Mountain View staved off a late Glencoe rally to preserve its 12th consecutive win. The Crimson Tide (16-10) sliced the Cougars’ lead to just three points, 53-50, with 1 minute and 21 seconds left in the game, but Glencoe missed a potential game-tying threepointer on its next possession. Isaiah Mitchell’s layin with 28 seconds left gave Mountain View a 55-50 lead that essentially sealed the outcome. Guard Tanner Apeland paced the Crimson Tide with 15 points, while Kirwan added 14 points and 10 rebounds. Glencoe shot just 31.5 percent from the field, while Mountain View hit 49 percent of its

Ervin, the first-year Bend coach, following Thursday’s elimination loss. Indeed, the Lava Bears had won more than their share of tight, defensive struggles this season, including the 44-41 home playoff victory over Corvallis last Friday that vaulted Bend into the state championship bracket. Things started well for the Lava Bears in Thursday’s game. A free throw by Ally McConnell opened the scoring and, after a basket by Kenzi Boehme, another McConnell hoop put Bend up 5-1. That would be the Bears’ largest lead in a game in which neither team led by more than four points. West Albany led by four twice in the fourth quarter, the last time with 6:07 remaining on a basket by Jaclyn Silsby that gave the Bulldogs a 26-22 advantage. Silsby’s basket was the last field goal of the game for West Albany, which scored only on free throws the rest of the way, a stretch — in-

cluding the two four-minute overtime periods — of 14:07. Karleigh Taylor led Bend in scoring with 15 points, though both she and McConnell were in early foul trouble. Taylor, a 6foot-1-inch junior post, scored with 3:02 remaining in the fourth quarter to pull the Bears into a 28-28 tie — which is where the score stood at the end of regulation play. It was 30-30 after the first overtime. Six seconds into the second overtime, Boehme hit a jumper for a 32-30 Bend lead. The Bears did not trail in the second overtime until Siegner broke a 34-34 tie — the 13th tie of the contest — with what proved to be the decisive free throw. In a defensive game in which Bend shot just 30.6 percent from the field (11 for 36) and West Albany was even worse at 20.5 percent (eight for 39, including zero for 12 from three-point range),

shots. “One of the things we really focused on (before the game) was their outside shooting,” said Crimson Tide coach Deon Johnson. “That caused us to get beat off the bounce (dribble) a lot, especially in the first half.” The Cougars (25-1) were extremely effective driving from the perimeter in the first half, creating good looks at the basket that allowed them to hit 15 of their 29 shots (51.7 percent). “We knew we could score off the dribble, especially our big guys, me and Seth (Brent),” said Claar, who went six of nine from the field. “Their big guys weren’t as athletic as us.” A win tonight would put the Cougars in the state title game for the first time in school history. Mountain View’s best state finish was in 2007, when the Cougars placed third at the 5A tourney.

foul shooting was key. While the Bulldogs made 19 of their 25 free throws, and seven of eight in the overtimes, the Lava Bears were barely over 50 percent for the game at 11 of 21. Bend also committed 20 turnovers to West Albany’s 15. Along with her 15 points, Taylor registered six rebounds to match McConnell for the Lava Bear team lead. Boehme scored six points, and McConnell and Ashley Penington added five apiece for Bend. Amelia Salazar was the only player on either team to play all 40 minutes, and the Lava Bears’ senior wing was credited with a game-high four assists. “It stings pretty hard,” Ervin said afterward, “because we know we had a great opportunity, and we were used to having those kind of games go our way. “But for the girls,” he added, “the sting will go away. And they’ll realize what a great season it was.”

Storm Continued from D1 Crescent Valley outscored Summit 14-6 in the second quarter for a 20-12 halftime lead. The Storm, the No. 4 seed from the Intermountain Conference, never got within six points of the Raiders the rest of the night. “Any time you hold a team to 12 points in a half it speaks volumes about your defensive capabilities,”

said Crescent Valley coach Mike Stair. “And in the second half I felt like we finally got in a flow offensively.” While the Storm’s defense kept them in the game early, Summit (14-14) could not overcome a shaky offensive performance. The Storm connected on just five of 20 shots from the field in the first half (25 percent) and ended the game shooting 32.6 percent. “It’s tough to win games against good teams when you shoot 32 per-

cent,” Storm coach Dan Munson said. “Defensively we did a good job. But you can only hold a team like that to 20 points for so long.” Justin Huckins and Jesse Heinly both added seven points for Summit. Colton Kelsey led a balanced Crescent Valley attack with 12 points, and Alex MacNeil and Avery Robinson each contributed 10 points in the win. After trailing by as many as 12 points in the third quarter, the Storm staged a brief rally and

pulled to within six points, 28-22 with three minutes left in the period. Crescent Valley ended the quarter on a 9-2 run, though, to take a 37-24 lead. “We’ve got to come back tomorrow and get after it,” said Munson, whose team would play for the fourth-place trophy on Saturday if it defeats Glencoe today.

Cycling • Boonen wins stage: Former world champion Tom Boonen of Belgium won the second stage of the TirrenoAdriatico race in Italy Thursday and Linus Gerdemann of Germany held onto the overall lead. Boonen, who rides for the Quickstep team, won a mass sprint, completing the 103-mile route in and around Montecatini Terme in 4 hours, 14 minutes, 13 seconds. • Contador leads ParisNice: Two-time Tour de France champion Alberto Contador won the fourth stage of the Paris-Nice race on Thursday in France and took the overall lead from Jens Voigt. The race ends Sunday in Nice.

Golf • Play canceled on PGA Tour: Heavy rain has forced organizers to cancel play on the opening day of the PGA Tour’s Puerto Rico Open. Steady downpours Thursday washed out the first round, which was rescheduled for this morning. Eighteen players teed off before the suspension. • Davies takes 1st-round lead at Australian Open: Defending champion Laura Davies shot a 5-under 68 to take a two-stroke lead after the first round of the Women’s Australian Open. Davies had six birdies and a bogey on the tough, par-73 Commonwealth layout where fewer than 25 golfers in the 150-woman field broke par Thursday. There was a six-way tie for second: Yang Soo-jin, Giulia Sergas, Jenni Kuosa, Felicity Johnson, Rebecca Flood and amateur Alison Whitaker all had 70s. 15-year-old American amateur Alexis Thompson was in a group tied for eighth. — From wire reports

Sharks make a habit of rallying in win over Predators The Associated Press SAN JOSE, Calif. — Joe Pavelski capped a four-point third period with the tiebreaking goal after a scintillating spin move in the San Jose Sharks’ 8-5 comeback victory over the Nashville Predators on Thursday night.

The Associated Press OAKLAND, Calif. — Brandon Roy scored 41 points, Andre Miller added 15 points and seven assists and the Portland Trail Blazers overcame a 13-point deficit in the fourth quarter to beat the Golden State Warriors 110105 on Thursday night. Rudy Fernandez added 12 points, including a pair of pivotal three-pointers during a late 17-3 run by the Blazers, who snapped a ninegame losing streak at Oracle Arena. Portland also avoided what would have been a costly defeat as it tries to hold onto the eighth spot in the Western Conference. Corey Maggette scored 24 points and Monta Ellis added 17 before fouling out in his first game back following a six-game absence for Golden State, which lost its sixth straight. The Blazers won for the fifth time in six games and moved a season-high 11 games above .500. It wasn’t easy. Portland trailed 96-83 entering the fourth quarter after struggling offensively most of the night and didn’t show much sign of life before rallying. The Blazers did it despite Roy scoring just three of his points over the final 12 minutes. Aldridge had six points during a 10-2 run to start the comeback in the fourth. Fernandez later hit back-to-back three-pointers to tie the game at 102, and Aldridge added a key three-point play to give Portland a 108-102 lead with 1:39 left. Stephen Curry made a three-pointer for Golden State, but Reggie Williams missed what would have been a tying three with 49.9 seconds left. Miller then sealed the win for Portland with a pair of free throws. The Blazers hadn’t done much until then except for Roy. He had 24 points in the first half then added 14 more in the third quarter before topping the 40-point mark for the third time this season. Roy finished 14 of 22 from the floor and added eight rebounds with four assists.

D4 Friday, March 12, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Skiing Continued from D1 Hoodoo Mountain Resort reports a 68-inch snow base — not bad, considering the season and the resort’s relatively low 5,700-foot summit elevation. While Bachelor is expected to stay open through mid-May, Hoodoo — just off U.S. Highway 20 on the top of Santiam Pass about 20 miles northwest of Sisters — will likely close in early to mid-April. But not for a shortage of snow. “Some years we’ve gotten more snow in April than December, January, February and March combined,” says Matthew McFarland, general manager of Hoodoo. “People just lose interest. We don’t generally close due to lack of snow, it’s due to lack of interest. People are gardening and golfing, and doing stuff at home. That’s the same everywhere.” Sometimes, McFarland adds, Hoodoo will get pounded with 6 to 10 feet of snow in May, long after the resort has closed for the season. “It’s pretty sad,” he says. Somehow, it just seems too early to stash the skis and snowboards in exchange for golf clubs and bikes. A plenitude of skiing and snowboarding is left to be enjoyed this season. The question this time of year is: Will it be a powder day or a corn-snow day? One day late last month, I saw that Hoodoo had received 8 new inches of snow overnight. Those days have been few and far between this season, at Hoodoo and Bachelor, and all over Or-

Ducks Continued from D1 “I just have these moments sometimes,” Randle said. “It just feels good. When I hit the third shot, it just felt like I wasn’t going to miss.” Randle didn’t score while playing just eight minutes in the second half of his 34th 20-point game at Cal. But the Bears got plenty of help from Jamal Boykin, who scored all 15 of his points in the second half, and Christopher, who hit five three-pointers. Cal, which has won five straight and eight of nine, will face UCLA in today’s semifinals. The future isn’t nearly as clear for Kent, who reportedly has already been told he won’t return next season to Oregon, where he became the winningest coach in school history with 235 victories over 13 years. Barring a postseason berth, Kent coached his final game with energy, constantly jumping up to urge on the Ducks as

Cal overwhelmed them. “I’m proud of our guys for coming in and battling while having so much other noise in their heads,” Kent said while declining to talk specifically about the rumors of his imminent departure. “I’m hopeful we’ll be playing somewhere (next week), frankly.” Tajuan Porter scored 26 points and broke the Pac-10 career record for three-pointers, but Oregon’s defense couldn’t slow the versatile Bears, who made 16 of their first 22 shots and seized control late in the first half. The eighth-seeded Ducks were taken to overtime by Washington State in their first-round game Wednesday night. “It’s always tough playing back-toback like that,” said Oregon forward LaKendric Longmire, who had 16 points and seven rebounds. “They came in hot, and we didn’t take the three-point shot away from them.” Kent said he’d speak to athletic director Mike Bellotti about his future when he returned to Eugene.

the places early that I know will get tracked-out first, like the bowl at Hoodoo, and then move on to less-traveled areas as the day wears on. I stood in line for 10 minutes for the Green Machine chairlift to open at 9 a.m. and take me to Hoodoo’s summit. From the top of the small mountain, Mount Washington, Middle Sister and North Sister appeared above the clouds to the south. Black Butte dominated the east skyline, with the vast High Desert beyond. I dropped into the bowl on my snowboard, carving turns through untouched snow, powder splashing up over my helmet on heel-side turns. The steep pitch of the slope helped me maintain my momentum through the deep snow. Find the right spots on Hoodoo, and you can ride fresh snow all the way to the bottom on a powder day. I did just that, floating through the sides of groomed runs and cutting through narrow lanes among small trees. To snowriders from Central Oregon, Hoodoo might be considered the forgotten stepchild of Bachelor, with much less terrain and a 3,000-foot lower elevation than the big mountain. But Hoodoo can hold true to its claims of steep, deep and cheap — season passes good for the rest of this season and all of next season are now on sale through Sunday for $299 ($500 cheaper than Bachelor). And on the right day at Hoodoo, you just might get fresh tracks all day long down its precipitous runs. “We do have a lot of steep areas,” McFarland confirms. “It’s a small area,

Beavs Continued from D1 The Beavers lost twice to Washington in six days, following the Huskies’ 82-70 win in Corvallis last weekend. Both teams’ best offensive players struggled mightily in the Pac-10’s fourth quarterfinal. Thomas led the Huskies in their second-half comeback despite four-for-16 shooting, while regular-season scoring leader Quincy Pondexter had eight of his nine points in the second half, all during a mid-half burst before going scoreless in the final 8:53. Calvin Haynes, Oregon State’s leading scorer, managed just two points on one-for-seven shooting, while Seth Tarver had just six points. Haynes also missed a free throw with 27 seconds to play, killing the Beavers’ comeback hopes. Washington began the season as a conference favorite, but struggled

but there’s plenty of steep runs.” Hoodoo is less crowded, period, and runs don’t get as tracked-out as fast as on Bachelor. But because of Hoodoo’s lower elevation, snow there can turn to rain — and morning powder can turn to afternoon slush — more rapidly. Which brings us to corn skiing in the springtime. Last Sunday at Hoodoo was a typical spring day: icy in the morning, an hour or so of good corn skiing, and then sticky “mashed potatoes.” While on a powder day snowriders would do best to get there as early as possible, a spring-skiing day is typically better after 11 a.m., when snow that froze the night before begins to thaw and soften from exposure to the sun. “Corn snow is kind of like skiing on miniature ball bearings,” McFarland explains. “When it starts to melt, the ice crystals become bigger. They freeze and thaw, and make little ice beads. When you ski on them, it’s very, very forgiving. If it gets too wet, it’s like mashed potatoes and you stick. “You’re looking for freezing overnight, and a good, rapid thaw,” he adds. “Sometimes you only have a half-hour to an hour window. You really have to pay attention to corn snow.” Make no mistake, winter will continue. If you feel unsatisfied with the skiing and riding so far this season, there is still time to get your turns in. But not much. Mark Morical can be reached at 541-383-0318 or at mmorical@ bendbulletin.com.

through a midseason lull before winning nine of 11 heading into the tournament. A win over seventh-seeded Stanford could put the Huskies in the best position to be the Pac-10’s second NCAA selection — although only a tournament title will get them in without a nervous Selection Sunday. The Huskies were mostly lifeless until early in the second half, when they scored 14 points in just over four minutes to tie it. Pondexter got his first two field goals of the night during the run — and Turner and Thomas then hit three-pointers to put Washington up 43-37 with 10:12 left. Oregon State got back within 49-47 before Thomas’ three-pointer with 4:41 left. Schaftenaar’s threepointer cut the lead to four points with 43 seconds to play, but the Beavers didn’t score again. Though the Staples Center was largely empty for the last quarterfinal, Oregon State alum Gary Payton was in attendance.

very year at my high school, the students and teachers come together to elect 10 senior boys to compete for the title of “Mr. Thunder” in a pageant of epic manliness. Obviously, this is a great honor, one only given to well-liked, fine young men. Which makes what happened this year even more unsettling. You see, after the list of 10 candidates was announced, two guys dropped out. I was

the second runner-up in voting, which means I am now competing for the title of Mr. Thunder. This effectively makes me the Nancy Pelosi of Summit High School, except that I am not a woman and know nothing about politics. And it also means something else. I am now popular. Long have I dreamed of the day when I too could belong to the elusive group of “popular kids” present at all schools, and finally I have achieved it. See Nyberg / E3

Co-worker wants her cake — and some for her family, too Dear Abby: I work in an office where folks sometimes bring in birthday cakes, desserts and other goodies to share. “Dolores” is always the first in line, and helps herself to a large portion of the treats and says she’s taking some home for her family. Last week, someone brought in an exotic dessert and I got out the dessert-sized paper plates. Dolores took out two regularsized paper plates and cut off a quarter of the entire dessert! No one could believe it, but we didn’t know what to say or do. One time, she actually cut a huge portion of someone’s birthday cake to take home before the “birthday boy” even got a slice. This woman is not poor. What do you recommend? — “Desserted” in Tennessee Dear “Desserted”: Your coworker is behaving the way she is because no one in your office has spoken up and objected. The next time someone brings something to be shared by the office staff and Dolores makes her usual move, the “bringer” should tell her plainly that she’s not to take more than a portion for herself until everyone else has had some — and to ask permission beforehand if she wants to take any of the remainder home. Dear Abby: My son’s birthday is coming soon. I want to invite his Scout troop and some of his schoolmates. The problem is “Matt.” Matt is a horrible child who is in both Scouts and school. I know he’ll destroy the party, but how can I invite everyone else and not him? His parents are lazy and overindulgent and can’t seem to make him understand that there Are Rules Of Conduct. — Perplexed Mom in The Woodlands, Texas Dear Perplexed: Do not invite all but one child to your son’s party. If Matt acts up, take him aside and tell him exactly what you expect from him while he is with you — and that if he can’t

DEAR ABBY behave appropriately he will be sent home. You may be surprised to find that when he hears it from you — rather than from his ineffectual parents — that he will listen and comply. Dear Abby: When I take my children to the pediatrician, we are usually there for one reason — flu-like symptoms, stomachache, etc. Sometimes my child will happen to have another ailment, like a sore ankle or a fever blister. I don’t feel comfortable bringing up additional issues with our doctor because when I do, I get the “evil eye” from him — like he’s only there to help with the one reason for our visit. Is it appropriate to talk to the doctor about several medical problems in one visit, or only stick to the issue at hand? — In a Quandary, Kettering, Ohio Dear In A Quandary: If you are asked by the person who takes the appointment why you’re bringing your child in, and you reply that your child has flu-like symptoms or a stomachache, the person will block you in for a certain amount of time with the doctor. If, after your child has been examined, you start talking about the sore ankle, the fever blister, etc., what you’re interpreting as the “evil eye” may be stress because the necessary amount of time was not allotted and the doctor will be behind schedule for the rest of the day. If, however, you feel the doctor is insensitive or not meeting your child’s needs, then you should change doctors.

‘Big Love’ showed too much love to big cast By Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — The problem with having what is arguably the best, and certainly largest, cast on television is that if you want to give them all something interesting to do for a season that lasts only nine episodes, things can get a little crazy. That’s what the creators, and fans, of “Big Love” discovered during the last few months as a soap operatic tangle of story lines — Bill’s running for state office! Ana’s back and she’s pregnant! Nicki’s mother married Nicki’s ex-husband! The Greens kidnapped Frank, Lois and Ben! J.J. is a Mormon Nazi! Sissy Spacek is being really mean! — left many wondering whether that was a shark fin circling in the distance. Uncharac ter istica lly choppy and literally all over the place, the fourth season sacrificed its signature brilliant attention to detail for action, winding up with more plots than the Juniper Creek graveyard before coming to an explosive conclusion Sunday night with a finale that felt at times like a cross between “The Candidate,” “The Women” and “The Boys From Brazil.” “We asked a lot of our viewers this season,” said Mark V. Olsen, one of the creators of “Big Love.” “But we’re ambitious, we wanted to dig a little deeper.” “We wanted to see it taken to the next logical step,” added his co-creator, Will Scheffer. “When these people are exposed, what will happen to the marriage? And we wanted to get there fast.” (The two, who were in Salt Lake City researching Season 5, spoke first by cell phone, then by e-mail.) Indeed, this season’s A plot followed Bill Henrickson (Bill

Paxton) as he corralled his reluctant wives Barb (Jeanne Tripplehorn), Nicki (Chloe Sevigny) and Margene (Ginnifer Goodwin) into supporting his campaign for state Senate; the finale episode ended with him outing himself, and his family. That Bill did this on the same day he drove to Juniper Creek to save Nicki from being impregnated with a incestuously fertilized egg as part of a eugenics plot led by ex-husband J.J. Walker (Zeljko Ivanek), is a testament to Bill’s increasing superpowers. Previously, he had driven to Mexico like a fundamentalist action hero to save members of his family kidnapped by Hollis Greene (Luke Askew). When Joey (Shawn Doyle) tried to kill Hollis, Bill offered himself in exchange for his son and parents, prompting Mama Lois (Grace Zabriskie) to cut off Hollis’ arm. With a machete. Throw in Alby’s (Matt Ross) lover hanging himself and Spacek as a nasty, Bill-hating Washington player and, well, even your biggest fans will start to talk. As Olsen and Scheffer now know only too well. “We are students of our blogs,” said Olsen, “and we know a lot of people feel that things moved too quickly this season.”

season has taught them a few lessons. They plan to “retool” their writing process and, more important, whittle down the cast. “We think the show has been the richer for having such a large ensemble,” said Scheffer, “but we also feel we’re at a breaking point. We’ve got to pare it down and refocus.” If the thought of losing one beloved character or another in the cause of the greater good is nervewracking to the show’s fans, well, no one said making a brilliant, well-paced, complicated and meaningful television show was easy.

Prep for Season 5 “We definitely had this ambition for it to be larger than life,” added Scheffer, “to take us into next season.” They also had this enormous cast. So while the two went into the writers room with three major stories — Bill’s campaign, Alby’s relationship and Spacek’s corrupt lobbyist — they wanted to make sure that none of the

other characters suffered. “We’re an ensemble show. We love our franchises — teens, wives and Bill, Juniper Creek and Greenes, etc. — and we love our actors. When we discover a new character, or embrace a new cast member, we’re loath to let them go,” said Olsen. “Once we crack the major season stories, we turn our attention to the ensemble. What about Joey and Wanda? What about Mary Kay Place (who plays Nicki’s mother, Adaleen)? Is Sissy’s story commensurate with her stature as an actress? And Zeljko — we felt a strong obligation to give him something memorable and deep. To earn him, as it were.” Olsen and Scheffer had long been intending to do a eugenics story based, they said, on the real-life in-breeding of the Kingston clan. When they decided to make that J.J.’s story, they did ask themselves whether it would be better to hold off for a season that wasn’t quite so jam-packed. But, Scheffer said, “we felt the story was so dark and so disturbing, we feared it would be better played in a slimmer fashion as a mystery that didn’t reveal itself until the finale.” Still, the two concede that this

Nyberg Continued from E1 As soon as I received the news of my ascension to popular status, I began to look at my life for the changes I assumed would come with such position. I rushed to the mirror to look for my newly acquired handsomeness, muscles and actual facial hair, but strangely, none were to be found. All I discovered was the same scrawny, baby-faced me. When I went to see if my Camry had been replaced with a Camaro, Viper or some other manly automobile I have seen in the movies, I was further disappointed. All I found was the same old Toyota. This pattern of disappointment continued through all of the other parts of my persona I had anticipated would become much cooler. I didn’t have a cool new job, I didn’t have hip clothes and I didn’t have greater

Ninth St., Bend; 541-390-2441 or www.freewebs.com/bendgospel.

Rating: PG-13 for violence, sexual content, language and smoking. What it’s about: A troubled young man finds love and purpose in the love of a girl he dates on a dare. The kid attractor factor: Robert Pattinson, from “Twilight,” in a romantic role without fangs. Good lessons/bad lessons: When a guy asks you out looking as if he just got beat up, run. Violence: More than you’d expect. Language: Some profanity. Drugs: RPattz drinks beer and smokes, almost incessantly. Parents’ advisory: Not even remotely as clever or deep as it seems to think it is, this is a gateway drama for Pattinson fans aging out of teen vampire tales.

‘Our Family Wedding’ Rating: PG-13 for some sexual content and brief strong language. What it’s about: Two large and very ethnic families — one black, one Hispanic — meet and comically clash during the titular nuptials. The kid attractor factor: American Ferrara, “Ugly” and “Betty” no more. Good lessons/bad lessons: The newlywed’s mantra — “It’s our marriage, THEIR wedding.” Violence: A cake fight or two. Language: “Brief strong language” that you’ll miss if you aren’t looking for it. Sex: Two words — “goat” and “Viagra.” Drugs: A big drunk scene. Parents’ advisory: A bit broad and low for a wedding comedy, but barely more than a PG in terms of adult content.

Toys Continued from E1 One Toy Tips mom reviewer who started testing this with her 12month-old child had these thoughts to share: “Overall I like the concept of the Smart Trike, that it converts from working like a stroller to working like a tricycle. In that aspect, it is a product that can grow with your child. The safety harness works well and is easily adjustable to fit your child. I like the sun shade on top and the fact that it can be pulled back up for ease of getting your child in/out of the trike. However, it would be nice if it was removable for those not-so-sunny days or for use indoors (at the mall, for example). Also, it would be helpful to have some sort of plastic window in the sun shade so that you can easily see your child while you are pushing the trike. The other suggestion I would make is to have the option to allow the front wheel to swivel/move while you are pushing the trike.” Tip: We found when baby is too old for use, this can be used as a toy organizer for dolls and stuffed animals as playroom decor.

preservers, sea horses and submarines. Players use the fishing pole to remove an item as the whale moves. If a player accidentally touches the whale’s tongue while trying to fish out an item, they will be squirted with water and have to place all of their accumulated items back into the whale’s mouth. Each item earns a player a different number of points; the player with the most points at the end of the game wins. Four AA batteries are required but not included. This game provides the opportunity to work in a team, practicing turntaking and socialization skills. The concept of cause and effect is introduced through play. Recommendations from Marianne M.

athletic prowess. I was just the same old me. This got me wondering, what is so different about being popular? Throughout my entire childhood, I had been trained to believe that this caste of society was different than us “uncool” kids. I, along with many of my peers, have been led to believe in ridiculous stereotypes. We have been, like, conditioned, man. The only true characteristic of popularity is widespread acceptance. Basically, the only difference between a so-called “popular kid” and the rest of us is that they have more friends. And what is even worse is that in addition to believing that these “popular kids” are different than normal kids, we have been made to hate them. The great irony of popularity is that while it means more friends, it also means more resentment. The media has fostered in the

youth a predisposition to loathe those they deem to be popular. This is evident in TV shows, books like “The Clique,” and movies like “Mean Girls.” And yes, I did just admit I have seen “Mean Girls.” More than once. Just because something is popular is no reason to dislike it. If I hated everything that is popular on principle I would miss out on a lot of great things, like Lil Wayne and breathing. The other, more serious harm of perpetuating the “popular kid” stereotype is its innately dehumanizing nature. By putting a name on any group of people, we effectively distance them from ourselves and make it easier to criticize, mock and generally “hate on them.” Some of you may have already extended this approach of de-labeling to its natural conclusion. If we abolish the “popular kids” label, we also have to do away with “jocks” and “nerds”

and “hipsters.” This de-labeling may make for a lot fewer Facebook groups, but I think in the long run, society will benefit. We as teens must realize that if we take away the different clothes, the slang and the various styles of music of any stereotyped character, what we have is one very naked person. Beyond all of the constructed, or perceived differences, we are all people, just the same. Whether people call you a “popular kid,” a “hipster” or a “jock,” I just want us to able to watch “Mean Girls” and listen to Lil Wayne together. And there is nothing wrong with that.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, March 12, 2010: This year, you often feel frustrated, as you have many great ideas but might not be sure about their success. Build your sense of security and confidence. Take your time plotting your course. If you are single, you could meet someone who you find quite enchanting. Check out this person with care. You won’t know who he or she really is for at least a year. If you are attached, the two of you benefit from taking getaways together. Love abounds. AQUARIUS reads you cold. 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 You decide that you can do whatever you want to do. Just don’t allow anyone to stop you. You could end the workweek with a rather spectacular event or finale. You have many reasons to celebrate. Tonight: Where the action is. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH All eyes turn to you. You have no choice: If you want to get out of the office, you will have to do nearly everything yourself. Investigate new possibilities or ways of delegating in the future. Tonight: A must appearance. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Keep reaching out for new information. You’ll get past a problem because of your ability to see beyond the

immediate situation. Listen to what is being shared, but don’t lose sight of the big picture. Tonight: Take off ASAP. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You are able to clear through much more working as a team. Single-handed, you simply don’t have enough oomph. Someone has a dream, but you can make it a reality if you give it your practical touch! Tonight: Say “yes.” LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Others dominate, and you really have no choice but to defer to them. Listen to suggestions and, if you can, put them on the back burner until you are ready to deal with key issues. Realize what is needed here. Tonight: All you want and more. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Focus on getting the job done. Evaluate what is happening behind the scenes at work. You might need to clear out a problem if someone is causing a snafu.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You might be excited by everything that heads down your path. You could be wondering which way is best and in which direction would you most like to head.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Keep your financial ideas to yourself, until you know that you are 100 percent right-on. You could have difficulty convincing someone else that you are on target. Do necessary research, and get on top of your game. Tonight: Treat yourself … why not? AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Your sixth sense could be right-on. Until some people actually see how intuitively accurate you can be, they might not trust that instinct of yours. Don’t feel pushed by someone close who makes one demand after another. Tonight: All smiles. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Investigate what is happening behind the scenes. You might want to take your time deciding which way to go. The less said the better off you will be. Understand your limits and honor them. Someone could be quite pushy. Tonight: Get some extra sleep. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

Friends Continued from E1 Jerry became their favorite play companion, other than each other. They held light-saber battles with him and had new adventures “every five minutes,” according to Alex. They wouldn’t let their sisters sit in certain spots because Jerry was sitting there. When Owain’s mom, Jen Aylward, first heard the boys mention Jerry, she thought he might be a real person and worried it was some guy wandering through the neighborhood. As soon as she realized Jerry was an imaginary friend, she accepted it. So did Alex’s mom, Anita Moore. “He was just with them all the time,” said Moore. When the boys reached about age 7, Jerry disappeared. Both Moore and Aylward encourage their children to develop their imaginations and creative play. Aylward’s daughter Alison, 9, remembers having an imaginary friend named Sally who she saw whenever she looked in a mirror. Alison says she could tell Sally about her problems. Moore’s daughter Carly, 10, has had several imaginary characters enter her life; the latest is a bird named Viv who flies around her room and helps her when she is feeling sad. Imaginary friends can be any age and any shape. Some are human, some are animal and some are pure fantasy, like a dragon. Carleton Kendrick, a Massachusetts family therapist and author, says early in his career in the 1960s, the prevailing thought was that imaginary friends were unhealthy. Experts believed the child might not be well-adjusted and could need psychological interventions. Imaginary friends were even seen as precursors to dissociative disorders or multiple personalities. Today, research paints a much different picture. Rather than being seen as negative, imaginary friends are associated with some positive traits in kids, including advanced social and language skills. “It’s common, ordinary and healthy,” said Kendrick.

Research University of Oregon professor of psychology Marjorie Taylor has been studying imaginary friends for about 20 years. She first started thinking about the topic when her own daughter developed such a friend. She wanted to explore research on the topic and found there really wasn’t much out there. Taylor wanted to research the typical imaginary friends children develop. But she found this frustrating and ultimately meaningless because they are so varied, with every personality trait imaginable. She says kids generally use imaginary friends to express their internal thoughts. Often the friend’s life will parallel the child’s. For instance, Taylor knows of a child who received a bowl with a fish, and her imaginary friend got a tank full of sharks. Kids tend to develop imaginary friends as young preschoolers, and many of these friends disappear around school age. But some children retain imaginary friends until 12 or older. As children get older, they are less likely to want to talk about their imaginary friends. At age 4 or 5, they don’t hide the friends, and parents tend to find it cute. By age 6 or 7, “it’s not as cute anymore,” said Taylor, and parents don’t encourage it as much. One common worry people had regarding imaginary friends was that it was a sign children could not differentiate between reality and fantasy. Through her research, Taylor says this shouldn’t be a concern. Almost all of the children with imaginary friends understand they are not real. In a study of 83 children with imaginary friends, only one child seemed confused about this distinction. Taylor says some parents accept imaginary friends for small children but still worry when older children develop them. Taylor says even relatively recently it was seen as a potential sign of pathology to have an imaginary friend by age 12 or older. She studied at-risk 12year-olds over six years. Those students with imaginary friends were more likely to graduate from high school and not get in trouble with the police. “People think this is a red flag. It’s not,” said Taylor.

Issues Parents have a wide range of reactions when it comes to imaginary friends, according to Taylor. Some parents accept and encourage them. Some even worry

When Alison Aylward, 9, was a little girl she had an imaginary friend named Sally who she saw and talked to when she looked in the mirror.

Carly Moore, 10, created her imaginary friend Viv, a small bird that sat on her finger, when she was younger. because their child doesn’t have an imaginary friend. And some parents are concerned about this created friend. Kendrick says some parents shame children for it. Or maybe they think imaginary friends are fine in general, but are concerned about something specific related to the one their child has: Why did she create another mother? Why is the friend sick all the time? Why does he have a shark stuck in his throat? Taylor says kids love it when parents play along with their imaginary friends. They see it as a game in which they get to take the lead and be the expert. However, she said kids don’t like it when parents try to take over. Sometimes children use their imaginary friends to take the blame. For instance, a child may say the imaginary friend was the one to throw the baseball through the window. If this happens, Kendrick encourages parents to roll with it and to embed the lesson in the fantasy. For instance, a parent could say, “I thought you would have straightened it out with him” or “Can you tell me that you two aren’t going to do that anymore?” Other times children may insist parents do something because of the friend. For instance, Taylor recalls one child whose imaginary friend was sick all the time. The girl wanted to stay home and take care of her friend and never wanted to go anywhere. The parents didn’t know what to do. Taylor suggested inventing another imaginary friend, one who could stay home and take care of the sick one. This worked. Taylor encourages parents to “work within the context of the fantasy,” but “not be held hostage by the needs of an imaginary friend.” If a child does have problems, Taylor says it’s the child’s other behavior that matters, not any imaginary friends. For instance if a child with imaginary friends doesn’t seem happy or doesn’t have any real friends, then the parents may need to be concerned. Parents can also use imaginary friends as a tool to learn more about what’s going on inside the mind of the child. Is the imaginary friend having a lot of problems? This might mean the child is struggling.

Alison, as well as their younger brothers, make up all sorts of silly creatures, from “soft petal mouses” to “slub face” characters. They love to create new characters and use their imaginations to play. Moore sees her daughter’s aptitude in this area and recently signed her up for an improv class. “I think it’s fantastic. I just think it’s phenomenal,” said Moore.

Aylward agrees and thinks this kind of play teaches her kids important lessons. She believes children try out different things on their brothers, sisters and imaginary friends and find out if those things work before going into the real world. Playing and

dealing with sadness or conflict in these settings makes the children more socially prepared. “It’s a great way for a kid to express their emotions, like telling a dog your deepest, darkest secrets,” said Aylward. And she encourages creativity

Local stories Bend mom Clare O’Shea played along with her son Travis’ imaginary friend. Travis invented the friend named Fred when he was about 3 years old. For the most part, playing along was easy. One time, however, O’Shea remembers taking her son in the car to pick up her daughter from school. In the pick-up line, Travis became upset. He said Fred had climbed up into a tall tree and couldn’t get down. O’Shea pulled the car to the side of the line and got out. She stood in front of the tree and coaxed Fred down and held out her arms for him. Then she pretended to carry him back into the car. “It’s just something moms do,” said O’Shea. The family moved from Australia to Bend when Travis was about 4. At first Fred went on the plane with the family, but once they were in America, O’Shea said her son stopped playing with him. It was as if Fred had stayed behind in Australia. Sometimes imaginary friends can help kids express themselves. Carly, the 10-year-old with an imaginary bird, remembers one imaginary friend named Marlie who wore black and served as Carly’s alter ego. One time Carly was frustrated at an after-school program, so she went into the bathroom and said, “OK Marlie, take my place.” And this helped her get through it. Other times these imaginary friends may help parents identify what’s going on inside their kids’ brains. For instance, Carly’s imaginary bird Viv has appeared when she’s feeling sad. Her mom says this gives her a clue about her daughter’s feelings. Often imaginary friends are great entertainment. Carly and

Brandi Carlile returns to town to play more sold-out shows By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

end loves Brandi Carlile. Ticket sales tell the tale. The fast-rising singer-songwriter will return to town next week for her fourth and fifth shows in three years (see “If you go”). Both shows have been sold out for weeks, as was her last appearance here, last summer at the Tower Theatre. And Brandi Carlile loves Bend back, though it has little to do with tickets. “I love the area. It feels like home to me,” she said last week in a telephone in-

terview from a tour stop in New Orleans. “There’s definitely an element of nature there that makes me feel really grounded. It’s exceedingly beautiful, and all the people just seem to be really open and receptive.” People, in fact, are the reason Carlile clearly remembers each of her Bend shows. Her first, in June 2007, was as an opener for her good friends and mentors The Indigo Girls. Her second — opening for Sheryl Crow at Les Schwab Amphitheater in 2008 — is where her opinion of local music fans was formed.

“I remember she was late to the gig and I had to play for a long time. I mean, I must’ve played for 45 minutes into her set before she got there,” Carlile said, “and the audience never once left us. They never once acted bored or irritated, and they were incredibly receptive to Sheryl when she got there. They let me play at least half an hour (or) 45 minutes into a Sheryl Crow show without Sheryl Crow, and I won’t ever forget that about Bend. I won’t ever forget how kind they were.” Continued Page 5

Stop, pop & roll Bend’s Tuck And Roll celebrates the release of ‘Time To Run’ By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

eople who dive deep into the underground in search of great bands can usually point to a person or moment in their lives that changed their feelings about music forever. For Tuck And Roll’s Sam Fisher, that person is Ryan Sotomayor (of Portland band Danger Death Ray) and that moment involves Weezer’s self-titled debut release, known as “the blue album.” “I would call myself a late-bloomer with music. I have four older siblings, and my older brother Mason

really had the ultimate ‘80s collection of music on tape, so I just kind of latched on to that,” Fisher, 31, said in a telephone interview last week. “I didn’t branch out, really, until I met Ryan and when I heard Weezer’s blue album. I think that was … when I realized, ‘Hey, wait a minute. There’s other stuff out there than cheesy butt-rock. This stuff sounds really good.’” It was his first leap into the deep rabbit hole of music obsession. “After that is when I first started buying my Pennywise CDs and NOFX CDs. It seems like once you get a good punk album that you like

… it’s so easy to discover other music and other bands on that label,” Fisher said. “That was it for me.” He also made note of the favorite bands of his favorite bands: “The stickers on the guitar. The buttons on the guitar strap,” he said. “‘Minutemen? Wait a minute, those guys released an album in ‘81? What the hell? This stuff has been going on that long?’” Indeed it has, and 30 years later, Tuck And Roll is a loud and proud member of the punk-rock tradition. The band will celebrate the release of its debut album, “Time To Run,” with a show tonight in Bend (see “If you go”). Right now, Fisher lives in Grant’s Pass, but Tuck And Roll formed in Bend in 2007 after he moved to town and posted a Craigslist ad looking for collaborators. Fisher is originally from Portland, where he played

in lots of bands, most notably Not Very Good in the mid-2000s. That Craigslist add turned up drummer Sean Garvin, and the two started playing together before picking up a bassist (who’s since left the band) and guitarist Chris Murra near the end of 2008. Current bassist Ben Jones joined Tuck And Roll shortly thereafter. For the past two years, the band has been a fixture on Bend’s always undulating punk scene, playing tons of gigs, most often at Players Bar & Grill. They released a sixsong EP last year that was only 14 minutes long, but packed to the gills with pitch-perfect, fuzzy pop-punk songs about partying and political discontent. But that was then, and this is now, and now is about “Time To Run.” Kind of. Continued next page

Brandi Carlile From Page 3 Her audience last summer at the Tower — a much different venue with a much different atmosphere — was equally memorable, she said. “We had an attentive audience, but they were also rowdy at all the right times,” Carlile said with a laugh. “That one was coming off the end of a … strenuous twomonth tour, and I thought I was done. I mean, I thought I was just too tired. And when we went and walked out on stage for that first song and I felt the energy coming from the audience, I got a second wind. I could’ve gone for another month after that show.” If Bend audiences are enraptured by Carlile and her songs, they’re not alone. Just three records into her career, the Seattlearea native is, by all accounts, one of music’s rising superstars. Her game appears to have no weaknesses: She’s an ace songwriter with a singing voice that’s both enormous and endearing. She’s an engaging performer with looks that match her chops. And at only 28, she seems wise beyond her years, and she pours that wisdom into her songs. Take Carlile’s most recent album, released last fall. It’s called “Give Up the Ghost,” and it features several big-name guests, such as Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, Heartbreakers multi-instrumentalist Benmont Tench, Indigo Girl Amy Ray, and the man Carlile called her “greatest hero of all time,” Elton John. Despite the glitzy names, how-

Tuck And Roll From previous page You see, Fisher is a fairly prolific songwriter, and the songs on “Time To Run” are ones that he and Garvin “were pretty much playing from day one,” he said. And so, Fisher sees the new album more as a document of where his band has been rather than a road map of where it’s going. “For me, this album is kind of a milepost, in that I wanted to just get it done … and get all that behind us and move on,” he said. “Like, you know, these are all these songs we’ve been playing for f--king ever. Let’s get ‘em recorded and just move on and start writing new stuff and see what we can do now.” Even so, “Time To Run” finds Tuck And Roll stretching its wings a bit. There are two songs written

ever, Carlile’s songs and voice stand out. “Give Up the Ghost” is a solid collection of tunes that run the gamut from driving rock to delicate folk to rollicking, Dixieland piano-pop. Thematically, the record works with a wide-angle lens, looking not at life’s little this-and-that, but the bigger picture. “We had a concern about ‘Give Up the Ghost,’ because to us it felt like a sophomore record, and we know what sophomore records are all about,” Carlile said. (Her first two albums were recorded as one body of work but released separately.) “Your first record is about the vastness of life and all the things that happen to you the first time around — first love, first loss, coming of age. They’re huge, and that’s why they resonate with people. “Second records are about the road, and the road is enchanting and it’s a wonderful topic, but it’s unrelatable, really,” she continued. “And it’s small. There are really big things that are happening to you while you’re on the road, but sometimes you can’t see past the road long enough to write about them, and what I really didn’t want to do was … put out a record of road songs.” The title, “Give Up the Ghost,” is a term commonly associated with death. But for Carlile, giving up the ghost means transcending the moment and focusing on what’s truly going on inside the head and the heart. “It’s like, yeah, I miss my parents, but do I really miss my parents? Is that what I really feel right now? Do I miss my parents or do I miss being their daughter?” she said. “Do I miss being young

enough to just have somewhere to go home to? So you transcend the immediate feeling, and you write about where it comes from.” So, yeah, a conversation with Carlile can be deep. But it can also be silly when she talks about her dependence on coffee, and serious when she discusses working with super-producer Rick Rubin and the battle of art vs. commerce, and self-deprecating when she describes working with Elton John. “Some would argue I didn’t keep my composure,” she said. “I would argue I didn’t keep my composure.” But Carlile always seems steady and self-assured, even as the upward trajectory of her career gets steeper, with no peak in sight. In the coming months, she’ll join the lineage of two of her greatest influences when she records an episode of the longrunning and respected “Austin City Limits” TV show, and then joins the revived Lilith Fair tour. The original Lilith Fair, which ran from 1997 to 1999, “shaped the kind of artist that I am,” Carlile said. Even with Carlile’s preternatural level of talent and poise, this kind of rise can be overwhelming. “I couldn’t be more grateful. It couldn’t be more of an honor and a privilege to be where I am. I can say that for every one of me there’s a thousand people just as good … who aren’t getting to live this life,” she said. “To say that I’m blessed is the understatement of the century.” Ben Salmon can be reached at 541-383-0377 or bsalmon@bendbulletin.com.

by Murra, and two near the end that have a distinctly twangy feel. (“We may make a whole country record some day,” Fisher said.) The whole thing is more measured and mature; it still rocks, for sure, but gone is the take-noprisoners pace, replaced with thoughtfully arranged tunes that draw influence not only from the output of important punk labels like Fat Wreck Chords and Epitaph, but also more indie-popleaning acts like Jets to Brazil and Superchunk. Basically, Tuck And Roll has learned how to take its foot off the gas without losing momentum. Now, Fisher is stoked to do more exploring with his band mates. “All the other bands I’d been in, it was always this collaborative thing. I was writing music but so was another guy, or maybe two other guys in the band. We were sharing that load. We were all the

frontmen. We were all the songwriters,” he said. “In Tuck And Roll I was put up front, which I don’t mind, but I had never done that, so it was a little weird for me at first and I’m definitely getting used to it. But it’s nice to be able to get back in that mode of (collaboration). “It’s not like I want to shove (the songs on ‘Time To Run’) behind and never play (them) again, but it’s a good feeling to be able to move on (and) get that stuff on a record,” he continued. “It’s really exciting to get it out and hear all this stuff recorded, but at the same time it’s almost more exciting to be able to move on and start experiencing what Tuck And Roll might sound like a year from now.” Ben Salmon can be reached at 541-383-0377 or bsalmon@ bendbulletin.com.

Pato Banton returns to the Domino Room

Maceo Parker Submitted photo

Funk legend Maceo Parker comes to Bend Say you were asked to carve out a Mt. Rushmore of funk, soul and R&B music. A monumental task, no doubt. The choices are seemingly endless, but if you ended up with a mountain featuring the faces of James Brown, George Clinton, Ray Charles and Prince, it’s hard to imagine anyone putting up much of a fight. Now, consider this: Maceo Parker has worked with each of those men. Parker and his scorching saxophone work are most associated with Brown’s trailblazing soul of the ’60s and Clinton’s groundbreaking funk of the ’70s. But for the past three decades, the guy has worked with contemporary artists as varied as De La Soul, Ani DiFranco and

REJUVENATING FACIAL

60 (REG.

Reggae shows are rarely short on positive vibrations, but a Pato Banton concert goes above and beyond. The London-born Banton made his name in the 1980s working with The English Beat before recording his first solo album in 1987. Since then, he’s been a music machine, pumping out album after album of classic, catchy reggae and staying on the road much of the time. He was nominated for a Grammy in 2000. In recent years, Banton’s music has become increasingly spiritual; his Web site (www .patobanton.com) touts his goal of spreading truth, beauty and goodness through reggae. “As I approach the final chapter of my musical journey … my only desire is to serve Divinity through Humanity,” he says on the site. “And to all my brothers and sisters who are striving to achieve their goals … Stay Positive & Never Give In!” Pato Banton, with MC Mystic; 9 tonight, doors open 8 p.m.; $15 plus service charges in advance, $18 at the door. Advance tickets available at Ranch Records (541389-6116) in Bend and through Ticketswest at www.tickets west.com, 800-992-8499, and the Safeway at 642 N.E. Third St., in Bend; Domino Room, 51 N.W.

music Knobody headlines underground rap tour More Bars in More Places is a great name for a tour, a nice little play on words that reworks a popular advertising slogan for a traveling hip-hop circus that’ll bounce around the Northwest this month. Even better, More Bars in More Places features quality rap acts, including Knobody, a Bay Area MC and member of the Hieroglyphics crew who specializes in thoughtful rhymes and left-ofcenter beats. Also on the bill: a brooding MC called Germane, the jazz- and soul-influenced duo The Tones, Bend’s own “dark party” rappers Cloaked Characters, and more. Best of all? More Bars is coming to Bend next week, and in a spot local heads don’t find themselves in every week: The Annex. Speaking of which, rap stanzas are counted in rhythmic bars, and The Annex is a place that doesn’t host hip-hop shows often,

so the tour’s name works on yet another level. Too clever. More Bars in More Places tour, with Knobody, Cloaked Characters and more; 8 p.m. Thursday ; $ 5 ; The Annex, 5 1 N.W. Greenwood Av e., Bend; 541-788-2989.

Sisters welcomes Trombone Shorty It’s only March, but it’s already been a great year for Trombone Shorty. The 24-year-old man his mom calls Troy Andrews saw his beloved hometown New Orleans Saints win the Super Bowl, and he performed on “Good Morning America” and “SportsCenter” in the days before the big game. He and his band, Orleans Avenue, played on Saints owner Tom Benson’s float in the team’s victory parade. In February, a recording Andrews contributed to won a Grammy, and another was nominated for an Academy Award. Continued next page

music From previous page But 2010 is just getting started for Andrews, who’ll release his new album “Backatown” on April 20. The record features guest appearances by Lenny Kravitz and Allen Toussaint, as well as the foot-stomping blend of funk, rock and hip-hop that’s making Trombone Shorty a fastrising star. Andrews is a skilled trombonist, trumpeter and singer, not to mention an engaging performer whose high-energy, self-described “supafunkrock” shows are like a tour through the New Orleans’ 6th Ward, a highly musical neighborhood in a highly musical city, and the birthplace of another of the Crescent City’s favorite horn-playing sons, Louis Armstrong. Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue; 7 p.m. Tuesday, doors open 6:30 p.m.; $15, $10 for students, available in advance at Paulina Springs Books in Sisters (541549-0866) and Redmond (541-5261491) and FootZone in Bend (541317-3568), as well at the contact info below; Sisters High School, 1700 W.

A trio of rootsy bands return to the region • When we last heard from Poor Man’s Whiskey, the Bay Area-based band was rolling toward Bend with Tin Man costume and laser light show in tow, ready to blaze our brains with their Pink Floyd-grass tribute, “Dark Side of the Moonshine.” By all accounts, it was a sold-out hoot. On Saturday, the band will return to the Domino Room (51 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend) to focus on their own music, which is an eclectic gumbo of twangy jam-grass played with the psychedelic flair and energy of ’70s rock ’n’ roll. 9 p.m., doors open 8 p.m. Tickets are $12 in advance at www.brownpapertickets.com or Ranch Records (541-389-6116), or $15 at the door. • The last time Great American Taxi was in town, the band — fronted by Leftover Salmon founder Vince Herman — was a revelation, hopping back and forth between American

roots-music genres with ease. For more than two hours, Herman and his crew pumped out fiery, funky newgrass, swinging Southern blues, jammy jam-band jams, lazy countryrock and not-so-lazy country rock, whipping Silver Moon’s dance floor into a frenzy on a Wednesday night. Next week, they’re back at the Moon (24 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend) on a Thursday, and Smokestack and the Foothill Fury will open. 8 p.m. $10. • The Ashland-based Americana quintet One Horse Shy has been through town a few times over the past year, but that’s not all they’ve been doing. They also recorded a new album called “Better Life,” which features the band’s trademark mix of country-rock gusto, string-band subtlety and pinpoint harmonies that sweep across the music like a rootsy rainbow. Tonight, they’ll be back in town to celebrate the new album’s release at Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom (24 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend). 9 p.m. $5.

Remember Jim Witty at the second Jim Jam It’s hard to believe it’s been almost 18 months since The Bulletin’s longtime outdoors writer, Jim Witty, died of a heart attack at age 50. We at The Bulletin still miss him. So do his closest friends, and they’re the folks behind the second annual Jim Jam, to be held Sunday afternoon at Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom. The event is for honoring Witty’s spirit and love of music, so everyone (both experts and novices) is encouraged to bring their instruments and voices, and Mark and Linda Quon will lead an open jam session. “Leave your inhibitions at home,” says Mark Quon. “Jim Jam is like singing around a campfire … without the fire.” Jim Jam; 1-4 p.m. Sunday; free; Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom, 24 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend; 541-388-8331 or www.myspace .com/silvermoonbrewing. — Ben Salmon

This St. Patrick’s Day...

the choice

is yours!

t. Patrick’s Day is traditionally a chance to wear green, go out and get blitzed.

Except this year, St. Pat’s falls on a Wednesday. And that is such a bummer for folks who have, y’know, jobs. So you have two choices: 1) You think of Wednesday as Hump Day, which means you’re in the middle of the work week, so you let the impending buzz of an alarm clock Thursday morning scare you away from a buzz on Wednesday night. Or, 2) You think of Wednesday as Hump Day, which means you’re officially more than halfway through the week, which is reason to celebrate! Let’s go with the second option, shall we? Now that that’s out of the way, there are several places in town that’ll provide some sort of compelling soundtrack to go with your beers and “Kiss Me, I’m Irish” T-shirt. Here’s a roundup: • McMenamins Old St. Francis School (700 N.W. Bond St., Bend), as usual, will throw a multifaceted party, with Irish dancers, a roaming bagpiper and music from the Tune Dawgs (from 5-8:30 p.m. in the hotel), Steve Allely (at 6 p.m. at O’Kane’s), The Sweet Harlots (6-9 p.m. in Father Luke’s Room) and the Moon Mountain Ramblers (8-11 p.m. in the movie theater). The whole thing is free. • For years, The Annex (51 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend) has been the site of a St. Patrick’s Day celebration thrown by the Harp Hall Social Club & Marching Society, a secret club of top-shelf fun folks for whom March 17 is like Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa rolled into one. This year is no different, and this year, the party will feature the music of the newish local Celtic folk-rock band Five Pint Mary. Doors open at 5 p.m., the band will play at 8 p.m., and cover is $5, or free for Harp Hall members in good standing. • Smokestack and the Foothill Fury is an aptly named band, except for one minor detail: the “and.” The word “and” implies multiple people, but really, all Smokestack’s racket comes from one man who’s on a mission to spread his punked-up country-blues across this great land of ours, like a

tornado made of guitar strings and snare-drum cracks. Smokestack and the Foothill Fury will play the St. Patrick’s Day party at Players Bar & Grill (25 S.W. Century Drive, Bend) at 9 p.m. It’s free. • If you’ve had a good time in Bend, chances are you’ve heard The Mostest play. Mark Ransom and company are one of those bands that just sort of seems to always be where good times can be had. Coincidence? Probably not. Anyway, The Mostest will play the St. Pat’s party at Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom (24 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend), where they promise to “rock your shamrock.” Shamrocks will begin rocking at 8 p.m., and cover is $5. • Prefer to do a good deed while celebrating St. Pat’s? You should head to the Black Horse Saloon (20565 Brinson Blvd., Bend), where local rock bands Tentareign and The Sofa Kings will play the heaviest sets of the night. The show is a benefit for Grandma’s House of Central Oregon, which provides safe shelter to homeless and/or abused pregnant, parenting and adopting girls between the ages of 12 and 19. Cover is $5, or $3 if you wear green, or free if you wear green and bring a food item to donate. They’ll get going around 8 p.m. • Local band El Dante splintered last year, spawning two new bands. One of those is Blowin’ Smoke, which features frontman Marzell Sampson and an able band that focuses on raw, party-rocking funk and hip-hop. And as we all know, funk and hip-hop is the genre most closely associated with the Irish. OK, not really, but it should be a sweaty good time at The Summit Saloon & Stage (125 N.W. Oregon Ave., Bend), where Blowin’ Smoke will play a free show at 9 p.m. • Nighttime not your thing? Loud rock ’n’ roll not your thing? Consider harpist Rebecca Hilary Smith and friends celebrating the sounds of the Emerald Isle from 2 to 4 p.m. at Strictly Organic Coffee Co. (6 S.W. Bond St., Bend). Harp music … now that’s celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in style! — Ben Salmon

music releases Johnny Cash

Joanna Newsom

AMERICAN VI: AIN’T NO GRAVE Lost Highway Records The decision to close “American VI: Ain’t No Grave,” the final album in Johnny Cash’s “American” series of career-redefining recordings, with the traditional Hawaiian song “Aloha Oe” was Cash’s, made before he died in 2003. Without that knowledge, “Aloha Oe” arrives as something of a prank: six albums of mournful, groaning, reflective, haunted, gothic country brought to a finish with three minutes of slackkey breeze. Knowing it, though, forces a reappraisal not just of this song, but of the singer in his last days. Who’s to say that Cash, staring into the final blackness, wasn’t light of heart? Cash was tough and vital on “American Recordings,” from 1994, the record that reintroduced him as country music’s living conscience. By “American V: A Hundred Highways” — recorded in the months before his death and released in 2006 — he was audibly unstable, though tenacious. This album is drawn from those same sessions, which were interrupted by the death of his wife of 35 years, June Carter Cash. It opens firmly with the traditional “Ain’t No Grave”: “Gabriel don’t you blow your trumpet/ ’til you hear from me,” Cash intones as the shuffling chains that form the song’s backbeat

HAVE ONE ON ME Drag City In her young career, Joanna Newsom has burst free of the traditions that inspire her — visionary California folk-rock, post-Kate Bush femme pop, fairy tales and modernist literature — to assert a voice that seems totally singular. Her distinctiveness begins with her unusual primary instrument, the pedal harp, and extends to her long and winding song structures and her allusive but hardto-track lyrics. Her last album, “Ys,” was a song cycle orchestrated by Van Dyke Parks that laid story upon story, touching on life’s biggest subjects: desire, death, the natural world’s pull on human

Hot Chip ONE LIFE STAND Astralwerks Records “Happiness is what we all want,” proclaim London’s Hot Chip at the start of their fourth album, “One Life Stand.” From a band that once celebrated “the joy of repetition” with a metapop wink (on the great indie dance single “Over and Over”),

signify the shackles that aren’t quite doing their job. His version of “For the Good Times” irretrievably remaps Kris Kristofferson’s tender relationship kiss-off as a final farewell. Same goes for “I Don’t Hurt Anymore,” popularized by Hank Snow, which is emboldened by a comic undercurrent: Cash sings it with the wry callousness that accompanies a bad breakup, though it’s life he’s parting company with. Not all of “American VI” has such nerve. “Redemption Day,” a Sheryl Crow song, is saggy and treacly, and the spacey pacifism of “Last Night I Had the Strangest Dream” sounds even more frail in Cash’s pockmarked voice. But taken together the “American” series is dark, glorious and courageous, created in a social vacuum and with rare perspective: It constitutes probably the most noteworthy and effective discussion of life’s end in recent popular culture. — Jon Caramanica, The New York Times

“One Life Stand” is full of subtle variations and sincere declarations of fidelity. Rather than look for happiness on the dance floor, Hot Chip now look for it in committed relationships. While using building blocks from club music — staccato synths, house-music pianos, the steady thump of a rhythm track — Hot Chip craft soulful songs, and the sweet falsetto vocals of Alexis Taylor and the worldweary croon of Joe Goddard offer soft pledges rather than arch proclamations. “One Life Stand” may lack a playful and irrepressible single on a par with ones from Hot Chip’s previous albums (“Take It In” comes closest), but from start to finish, it provides happiness aplenty, and isn’t that what we all want? — Steve Klinge, The Philadelphia Inquirer

Alkaline Trio THIS ADDICTION Epitaph Records For an album that takes most of its imagery from foil-darkened heroin dens, Alkaline Trio’s “This Addiction” feels more like a sugar high than an opiate. The goth-tinted punk band long paired sly, cartoonishly bleak lyrics with chipper melodies. “Addiction” is its clearest distillation of that formula in years, and will remind a lot of prodigal fans about singer Matt Skiba’s songwriting strengths. Alkaline Trio has never

consciousness. Her new threedisc set goes even further into that subject matter, and is even harder to track. Yet it’s an easier listen. “Have One on Me” aims to be ... accessible is the wrong word, so let’s say palpable. Sensual, with the breadth and variety that music offers when you’re dancing to it,

or listening in bed. Some songs feature just Newsom and her harp; on others, she’s at the piano. Newsom’s touring bandmate Ryan Francesconi has crafted arrangements that highlight the many changing elements in these collaborations, from horns to banjo to street corner/campfire backing vocals. The variety here suits the set’s overarching theme of coupling and uncoupling. Starting with “Easy,” a song about “my man and me,” and concluding with “Does Not Suffice,” in which Newsom packs up her feminine finery and walks away, “Have One on Me” explores what intimate partnership offers, and what it costs. — Ann Powers, Los Angeles Times

been as evil as they imagined, and their obsidian sheen has sometimes bogged down their tunes. Not so here: “Dead on the Floor” imagines Buddy Holly’s sock-hop rock as a delicious romance-is-murder ballad, and “Dine, Dine My Darling” is a witty Misfits homage, appropriate for a band built on pop tunes about suicide and vampires. The album is a pointedly minimal production, though — most tracks are simple guitar-bassdrum affairs with a few tasteful harmonies that put the surprisingly durable hooks up front. Alkaline Trio may have a mouthful of purloined pills here,

but Skiba’s tongue is perfectly in cheek on his band’s best album in years. — August Brown, Los Angeles Times

a beautiful, untamable kind of band — has just been to see Fidelman. The result, “Snakes for the Divine,” changes the band’s sound. But it’s not a tragedy. The band has left behind its elephantine, down-tempo, creation-of-the-earth stomps. Pike has gone in hard for making his

songs less like elemental scuzz and more like Iron Maiden and Motorhead; he’s also boosted the ancient-warrior mythos in his lyrics to a new level of nonsense. (From “Frost Hammer”: “Frost clan blows the war horn without a fear or guise/ Messiah of the glacian heir cold born to rise.”) And then there’s “Bastard Samurai”: dire, overwhelming, quite wonderful. You’ll know right away what’s missing. But you can console yourself with what’s there: thunderous drumming, vengeful roaring, some rough and chaotic single-note improvising. Pike can’t be slicked up that much. It’s impossible. It’s even nice to see someone try. — Ben Ratliff, The New York Times

High on Fire SNAKES FOR THE DIVINE Koch Records If you have taken personal offense at the sound on a metal record in the past two years, you have likely heard of Greg Fidelman. He has engineered a number of albums under the executive production of Rick Rubin, including Metallica’s “Death Magnetic” and Slayer’s “World Painted Blood.” The results tend to be something like an audio equivalent of high-definition TV: dry and anti-mysterious. The Oakland, Calif., metal band High on Fire, a trio known for hypnotic and rampaging riffs, Matt Pike’s rough and billowing guitar sound and Des Kensel’s tribal drum rhythms —

friends

SAR AH MATTO X

Musical community reaches out to one of its own with fundraiser By Eleanor Pierce The Bulletin

onight’s Monica’s Friends Present concert is a fundraiser for Bend vocal coach and Central Oregon Community College music instructor Monica Torrey and her husband, former artistic director of Cascades Theatrical Company, Dee Torrey. It is, without a doubt, a kind gesture from friends reaching out to a couple reeling from the financial burdens of Monica’s ongoing fight against ovarian cancer. But when you have friends like the Torreys’, you get a special kind of fundraiser, one that classical music lovers in Central Oregon won’t want to miss. The concert takes place at 7:30 p.m. tonight at the Tower Theatre (see “If you go”). A benefit Headlining the show is operatic concert is singer Sarah Mattox, a mezzo sopraplanned for no who has made a name for herself Monica Tornationally since leaving Bend in the rey, a vocal late 1990s. She has sung principal coach and roles with operas in Seattle, CincinCOCC music nati, Chicago and more. instructor who “She’s the famous-est,” Monica is undergoTorrey said, calling Mattox, who ing treatment now lives in Seattle, her best friend for ovarian as well as “a fantastic singer.” cancer. “She actually has sung all over the place. She gets good reviews wherever she sings.” An example: Mattox recently soloed at Carnegie Hall. Torrey described how the internationally renowned choral composer whose works were being performed, John Rutter, hand-selected Mattox for the solo. “He loved her,” she said. Mattox will sing two pieces from operas, “Cruda sorte!” from “The Italian Girl in Algiers” by Gioachino Rossini, and “Pres des Remparts” from the perennial favorite “Carmen” by Georges Bizet.

fine arts From previous page Mattox will also sing a few lesser-known Cole Porter pieces, songs that went unpublished until after Porter’s death. Many of the pieces were simply set aside because they had been written for musicals and later edited out. “He was so prolific he could afford to forget about them,” Mattox said of the songs, often called Porter’s “trunk songs.” One of the pieces she will perform tonight, called “Who Said Gay Paree?” was cut from the 1953 musical “Can-Can.” “The song that it lost out to in the movie was ‘I Love Paris,’ which is an exuberant, fast-paced, up-tempo piece,” Mattox said. “Who Said Gay Paree?,” on the other hand, was a melancholy ballad. “The director thought a melancholy ballad wasn’t what he wanted. But I personally much prefer ‘Who Said Gay Paree?’” Trish Sewell is another former Bendite returning to town to participate in the benefit. “I used to call her the queen of song,” Torrey said of Sewell. The pair performed together in several “Due Soprani” concerts at The Tower. Sewell, traveling from Arizona for the concert, will sing selections including the haunting “Summertime” from George Gershwin’s folk opera “Porgy and Bess.” Jason Stein, whom Torrey called “Central Oregon’s tenor,” will sing several pieces, including a duet with James Knox, associate professor of music at COCC and the director of the Cascade Chorale. The pair will sing “Au Fond du Temple Saint,” from Bizet’s “The Pearl Fishers.” “Last time they did that, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house,” Torrey said. Rick Johnson, the choir teacher at Crook County High School who in September captivated audiences as the emcee of the Kit Kat Klub in Cat Call Productions’ “Cabaret,” will sing “Anthem,” from the musical “Chess,” by Benny Andersson, Tim Rice and Bjorn Ulvaeus. One of the organizers of the event, JoAnn Thompson, said she was looking forward to Johnson’s performance. She described how she saw him singing on stage years ago, and though she couldn’t quite recall which role he was playing, she hasn’t been able to shake the memory of the performance. “Forever to this day, I remember his piercing eyes,” she said. “They are just ingrained in my image of what Rick Johnson can do to you.” The list of local musicians and artists of note who are participating continues: Thompson’s hus-

band, Clyde Thompson, will bring members of his Central Oregon Mastersingers; conductor Michael Gesme and members of the Central Oregon Symphony will perform; local actors led by Lilli Ann Linford-Foreman will offer theatrical presentations; and pianists Jean Shrader and Kathy Gault will perform a piano duet. “This is going to be, like, the greatest concert ever,” Torrey effused. “The best singers, the best performers. It just overwhelms me.” Torrey has been undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer for several years, but a complication sent her to the hospital in early January. “I had a complication from which people usually die. I didn’t, but on top of that, I got a hospital infection — that was kind of crummy,” Torrey said, with her trademark humor. The big problem was that the hospitalization kept her from

working, and her husband is retired. “Always before, even through chemo, I’ve been able to work,” she said. JoAnn Thompson, who plays in a recorder group with Torrey, said when Torrey’s family members flew to Bend and began making arrangements to help out financially, she realized the couple needed help. When she went home to speak with her husband, “It was Clyde who said, ‘Why don’t we do a benefit concert for Monica?’” Performers jumped at the chance to help out — so many, in fact, Thompson said some had to be turned away. One of the singers, Melissa Bagwell, is a vocal student of Torrey’s. “I think the thing about the Torreys is the immense amount of time and heart they’ve given to the local performing arts scene,” Bagwell said. “The fact that we have these kinds of opportunities here is because we have people like them.” “For myself, on a personal note, my experience working with Monica as a student of hers in my adult life has been really special. I would say life-changing. I’d given up on some things,” Bagwell said. “She’s been amazing at giving me a renewed passion for music.” But even if you’ve never met the Torreys, the event will be worth the price of admission. “It will be a great concert,” Thompson said. “You can leave out the word benefit. It’s just a great concert, and a bonus that it’s a benefit.” Eleanor Pierce can be reached at 541-617-7828 or epierce@bendbulletin.com.

Arts Central plans awards party Arts Central will host a member appreciation party, the Fleece and Flannel Ball, on March 19.

The Phoenix

Patrons sit down for lunch at the The Phoenix in east Bend. The restaurant, now on Northeast Bellevue Drive, relocated from its former spot in the Old Mill District.

reincarnated Larger location in east Bend offers chef another chance to showcase his talents By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

f at first you don’t succeed, look for a bigger and better location. That’s what chef Curtis Whitticar did, and he found a suitable space for the rebirth of The Phoenix on Bend’s east side, in what was formerly Kayo’s Roadhouse. It’s not that the original Phoenix Cafe was a failure, by any means. But despite Whitticar’s obvious culinary skills, its location didn’t beckon a lot of patronage. Lodged for two years in a hard-to-find Old Mill District office building, the intimate cafe drew a steady stream of diners at lunchtime but had a hard time filling its nine tables during dinner. Originally from the Northeast, Whitticar had moved to Bend in 2006 after 18 years as a chef in south Florida. “I wanted to live in Oregon,” he explained simply. His Phoenix Cafe operated from September 2007 to August

2009. And then an investor offered him an opportunity to be executive chef in a much larger space. Within a couple of months, Whitticar and his team had performed a substantial renovation of the casual restaurant that had closed in July of last year. The mood has changed from roadhouse (peanut shells once covered the floors) to contemporary and neo-industrial. Shiny stainless-steel facing calls attention to the open kitchen. Black beams raise the roof high above the dining floor, as if in a warehouse.

‘For everyone’ The new Phoenix opened the first week of January. Whitticar likes to call it “a restaurant for everyone.” Indeed, that slogan is emblazoned on the sign on Northeast 27th Street directing drivers to the restaurant’s entrance. Continued nex t page

restaurants From previous page The chef wants to be all things to all people. In a part of town where most other restaurant choices are ethnic — Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, Peruvian, Hawaiian — he offers a varied menu dominated by American comfort food, but including a handful of Italian and Pacific Rim-influenced items. Open daily for lunch and dinner, the restaurant also serves a Sunday brunch. The Phoenix seats 200 guests. The main section of the restaurant, to the right of the hostess stand, embraces a series of four-person booths whose high backs, dark upholstery and rich wood paneling offer warmth and privacy. Below this area, a legion of tables provide additional seating. To the left of the hostess stand is the bar area, with more booths and tables, televisions for sports viewing and a sociable bar staff. The vibe here is family-friendly. The service, on each of my visits, was attentive and very professional. Bread or chips were delivered by bussers who kept water glasses constantly refilled. Conversant servers recommended dishes off the menu and discussed wine choices. They took orders with efficiency and delivered them in a timely manner.

Excellent dinner My first visit, a solo one, came at dinnertime. A loaf of warm bread was delivered even before I had time to study the menu; it was served with whipped butter and a spread of red-pepper hummus. Although there was nothing particularly memorable about either the bread or the surprisingly bland hummus, I appreciated the gesture. My raspberry salad was excellent. Fresh baby greens were tossed in a house-made vinaigrette of walnut oil and raspberries, with sun-dried cranberries and toasted walnuts. Crumbled chevre, a French goat cheese, and a handful of fresh raspberries were sprinkled on top. At first glance, the entree menu is a little bit scary, pricewise. Nearly half of the 17 items, including most of the steaks, are priced at $24.95 and more. But my eye was caught by a claim of the “best meatloaf in Bend.” If not the best, it was very close to it. Whitticar’s all-beef meatloaf is a blend of Angus chuck steak with onions, eggs, panko bread crumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and seasonings, baked and topped with a rich brown gravy with lots of freshly sliced crimini mushrooms. I was served two thick

For dessert, I ordered a creme brulee trio. Small dishes of torched vanilla, chocolate and capuccino custards were perfect as a light sweet, rather than a heavy course, to close the meal. I chose a glass of Argentine malbec to accompany my meal. The Phoenix offers 15 wines by the glass and an extensive list of bottles priced under $30. There are also eight beers on tap and 17 more available by the bottle.

Tasty lunch A companion joined me for a subsequent lunch. Instead of bread, we were presented a basket of warm tortilla chips with a good (if mild) homemade salsa of coarsely chopped tomatoes, red onions and cilantro. My friend tried the pan-fried crab cakes, which she found excellent. Lightly breaded, they were composed almost entirely of lump crab meat, with very little filler. A mustard cream sauce accompanied the two cakes. I thought the buttermilk-battered onion rings were overkill on a plate that also featured the same mashed potatoes and vegetables I had previously had for dinner. But my friend said they were an ideal complement to the crab cakes. My choice was a chicken florentine sandwich. It was served between two slices of very soft focaccia bread, lightly toasted with bits of Parmesan cheese. The garlicky filling consisted of chunks of chicken breast blended with spinach, artichoke hearts and melted Parmesan. It was tasty, but a little bit went a long way. I couldn’t help but think this was the same stuff (minus the chicken) listed on the “starters” menu as brick ovenbaked spinach and artichoke dip. The accompanying cole slaw was excellent. Served in a separate cup, which kept it from getting the sandwich plate sloppy, it balanced sour vinegar and sweet sugar flavors perfectly. We enjoyed crepes for dessert. Whitticar said he learned to

make crepes at a French restaurant in the Miami area; the paperthin pancakes were filled with vanilla ice cream and dressed with whipped cream. They are certainly some of the best in Bend. A delicious berry crepe came with fresh blueberries, strawberries and raspberries. A chocolate crepe was awash in molten fudge. John Gottberg Anderson can be reached at janderson@ bendbulletin.com

SMALL BITES Top Leaf Maté Bar has a number of dining choices available at its downtown Bend cafe. Owner Santiago Casanueva offers a menu of healthy foods with nothing priced over $5.50. For breakfast, a bagel station encourages patrons to dress their own bagels with jams, cheeses and spreads. For lunch, diners may choose between organic brown-rice bowls (with a variety of vegetarian toppings) to a rotating selection of ethnic-influenced soups. Open 8 a.m. to afternoon close Monday to Saturday. 869 N.W. Tin Pan Alley at Minnesota Avenue, Bend; 541-419-2541, www.drinktopleaf .com.

RECENT REVIEWS Toucan Cafe (B): An early and casual dining spot on Redmond’s main street, the Latin-flavored Toucan specializes in yerba maté, a tea-like herbal beverage from South America. Breakfasts, including huevos verdes (“green eggs”), are excellent; salads are fresh and creative. Sandwiches and wraps, however, are uninspired. Open 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday to Saturday. 528 S.W. Sixth St., Redmond; 541-5048870, www.santiagosmate.com. Trattoria Sbandati (A): Fixedprice dinners at this intimate, family-run Italian restaurant are worthy of a special occasion. Florentian chef Juri Sbandati serves four courses with matching wines, and offers such dishes as roasted quail and braised pork

Correction In a story headlined “South American outpost,” which appeared March 5 on Page 10 of GO! Magazine, the meal service at Top Leaf Maté Bar of Bend was characterized incorrectly. The restaurant serves food (see “Small Bites”). The Bulletin regrets the error.

ALOHA,

Hawaiian music! HAPA’s bringing island sounds to Oregon By Jenny Harada The Bulletin

his spring, you don’t have to travel to the Pacific to hear the sounds of Hawaii. Influenced by ancient Polynesian rhythms and chants, seafaring ballads and American acoustic folk/ rock, HAPA is bringing its contemporary Hawaiian music to Oregon for three shows: March 31 at Southern Oregon University in Ashland, April 1 at The Shedd Institute in Eugene and April 2 at the Aladdin Theater in Portland. The band features Barry Flanagan on slack key guitar, Nathan Aweau on rhythm guitar and bass and chanter Charles Ka’upu. Founded in 1983 by Flanagan, the group combines the oli (chant), mele (song) and hula (dance). Often called the “Sound of Maui,” HAPA is known for its rich harmo-

nies and virtuosic guitar licks, according to a news release. The group’s self-titled debut album (1993) is considered the biggest selling recording by a group or duo in the history of recorded Hawaiian music. Tickets for the Ashland performance are $25 ($15 for students). To purchase tickets, contact 800-838-3006 or visit www.hapa inashland.com. The Eugene performance is $24 to $32 for adults and $12 to $16 for youths, depending on seat location. To purchase tickets, contact 541-434-7000 or visit www.theshedd.org. Tickets for the Portland concert are $26.50 in advance and $28 at the door. To purchase tickets, contact Ticketmaster at 866-8664502 or visit www.ticketmaster.com.

‘Battlefield’ fights back

TOP 10

‘Bad Company’ sequel hopes to regain its crown

othing improves competition like a great rivalry. After years as the kingpin of military multiplayer, “Battlefield” creator DICE found its title in jeopardy as FPS gamers abandoned PCs in favor of consoles and “Call of Duty” became the gold standard. At the core of Infinity Ward’s world-beating shooter was the “Battlefield” blueprint. The studio borrowed the persistent rankings and unlockable weapons concepts from “Battlefield 2,” refined them to unprecedented levels, and matched its robust online offering with an expertly crafted single-player campaign featuring thrilling scripted sequences that put action flicks to shame. Not content to settle for second place, DICE throws down the gauntlet with “Bad Company 2,” delivering its best multiplayer package since “Battlefield 2” and a remarkably improved single-player campaign that openly mocks its rivals while cribbing from them at the same time. As with all “Battlefield” titles, a phenomenal multiplayer mode serves as the heart of “Bad Company 2.” The game successfully blends many innovations from the series’ past with impressive new features to create a robust experience that rightfully challenges “Modern Warfare” for the multiplayer crown. All the “Battlefield” staples return: player progression, rankings, squad groupings, unlockable weapons, and huge maps that allow players to attack via land, air, and sea. The deep progression system

A vastly improved single-player campaign in “Battlefield: Bad Company 2” complements some of the best tactical multiplayer action on the planet. constantly dangles the carrot of achievement in front of you, offering a wealth of unlockable weapons, gadgets, and specializations with nearly every round. Conquest and Rush still serve as the multiplayer pillars, but “Bad Company 2” also introduces two new change-of-pace modes. Squad Rush places a four-player team in the role of attackers who must best the four defenders by destroying two crates. Squad Deathmatch pits four teams of four against each other in a battle for kill counts and bragging rights. A pair of useful new tools bolster the team tactics. The spotting mechanic helps improve communication by allowing players to mark enemy positions as they identify movement on the battlefield. In addition, the overpowered artillery from “Bad Company” has been removed in favor of a player-guided UAV that allows

As great as the multiplayer is, DICE takes its biggest strides forward with the drastically improved solo campaign. The follow-up to the Swedish studio’s first attempt at a crafting a meaningful single-player experience finds success in mimicking some of the best games to date. Keen gamers will notice borrowed elements from “Call of Duty” and “Uncharted 2” sprinkled throughout the campaign. The most drastic improvement comes with its renewed sense of

pacing. By ditching large openworld environments in favor of a more linear path, DICE is better able to craft memorable scripted sequences that the first game sorely lacked. Amazingly, DICE pulls this off without sacrificing the player’s sense of freedom: the levels are still big enough to offer several tactical options for players to explore. A number of subtle improvements keep the campaign moving along with the clip of a Hollywood blockbuster. DICE ditched the health syringe from the first game in favor of a regenerative health system, the forgiving checkpoint system doesn’t punish players, and you never have to babysit your more-than-capable squad during the intense firefights. The only thing the campaign lacks is co-op; since four heroes are already fighting side-by-side throughout the game, this was a missed opportunity for DICE to one-up the competition.

‘BORDERLANDS: THE SECRET ARMORY OF GENERAL KNOXX’ For: Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Windows PC Requires: Borderlands From: Gearbox Software/2K Games ESRB Rating: Mature Price: $10 A lot of people weren’t thrilled with the second “Borderlands” downloadable pack, which felt more like a self-contained extra mode than a seamless extension of the game world. For those folks and everyone else who loves that world, this latest pack is more like it. “The Secret Armory” introduces a huge new plot of frontier to explore, and with that comes new instances of everything — guns, vehicles, enemies, main/ side missions, weird characters, dark humor — that make the main game great. The level cap receives an overdue boost, from 50 to 61, and with that comes new privileges with regard to abilities and rare weapon types. All the rewards naturally carry back into the rest of the game, and per “Borderlands” tradition, Gearbox encourages multiple playthroughs by dialing up the difficulty and payoff the second time around. Just be sure to have your wits about you: Gearbox recommends players enter “Knoxx” at around level 35, which means beating the main game’s storyline first is advisable. “Knoxx” won’t stop anyone who wishes to dive in sooner than that, but it also won’t scale down its difficulty to accommodate low-level characters, so consider this your fair warning. — Billy O’Keefe, McClatchy-Tribune News Service

In the thriller “Green Zone,” Matt Damon stars as Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller, a rogue soldier who must hunt through covert and faulty intelligence before war escalates in an unstable region.

Green light for ‘Green Zone’ War film may spark debate, but fictional plot is full of suspense

‘G

reen Zone” looks at an American war in a way almost no Hollywood movie ever has: We’re not the heroes, but the dupes. Its message is that Iraq’s fabled “weapons of mass destruction” did not exist, and that neocons within the administration fabricated them, lied about them, and were ready to kill to cover up their deception. Is this true? I’m not here to say. It’s certainly one more element in the new narrative that has gradually emerged about Iraq, the dawning realization that we went to war under false premises. It’s a thriller that makes no claim to be based on fact, but provides characters and situations that have uncanny real-life parallels. Its director made two of the Bourne films, and imports his approach to Baghdad, starring Matt Damon as an unstoppable action hero. But this isn’t merely a thriller. It

has a point to argue: Critical blunders at the outset made a quick and easy victory impossible, and turned Bush’s “Mission Accomplished” photo-op into a historic miscalculation. “Green Zone” argues, as many observers have, that the fatal error of the United States was to fire the officers and men of the Iraqi army and leave them at large with their weapons. The army had no great love of Saddam and might have been a helpful stabilizing force. Instead, it was left unemployed, armed and alienated. Damon, playing Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller, is seen at the outset leading a raid on a suspected storage site for WMDs. Nothing there. Another raid, intended to find weapons of chemical warfare, turns up years-old pigeon droppings. Because some of the raids produce casualties, he begins to question the intelligence

RO G E R EBERT

“ Gre e n Zone” 1 1 4 minutes R, for violence and language reports the raids are based on. He speaks out at a briefing, and rather improbably finds himself face to face with a U.S. intelligence agent named Poundstone (Greg Kinnear). He’s fed the usual line and told to perform his duty, but is overheard by Brown, a hulking, grizzled CIA man who’s an old Middle East hand. Soon he’s meeting with Brown to pass on his doubts. “Green Zone” indicates that the CIA, which lacked (as in real life) any evidence to back up the WMD claims, has been cut out

of the loop, and that Poundstone is not only the architect of the neocon fictions, but their enforcer. Chief Miller also meets a New York newspaperwoman named Lawrie Dayne (Amy Ryan), whose reports about a secret Iraqi informer have given credence to the WMD claims. From her he discovers that General Al Rawi (Igal Naor) of the Iraqi Army met with Poundstone in Jordan, but unlike the source Poundstone cited, flatly told him Saddam had no WMDs. So the bad intel was cooked up to justify the war the neocons desired. Have I made the plot sound complex? Greengrass works with the screenwriter, Brian Helgeland, to tell it with considerable clarity. By limiting the characters and using typecasting, he makes a web of deceit easy to understand. Also a great help to Chief Miller is a local named Freddy (Khalid Abdalla), who risks his life to help him, acts as a translator. The action in “Green Zone” is followed by Greengrass in the queasycam style I’ve found dis-

tracting in the past: lots of quick cuts between hand-held shots. It didn’t bother me here. That may be because I became so involved in the story. Perhaps also because unlike the Bourne films, this one contains no action sequences that are logically impossible. When we see a car chase that couldn’t take place in the real world, we naturally think about the visual effects. When they could take place, and it’s a good movie, we’re thinking about the story. “Green Zone” will no doubt be under fire from those who are still defending the fabricated intelligence we used as an excuse to invade Iraq. Yes, the film is fiction, employs far-fetched coincidences, and improbably places one man at the center of all the action. It is a thriller, not a documentary. It’s my belief that the nature of the neocon evildoing has by now become pretty clear. Others will disagree. The bottom line is: This is one hell of a thriller.

A good story with heart ‘Remember Me’ wants to be powerful, but falters in the end

‘R

emember Me” tells a sweet enough love story and tries to invest it with profound meaning by linking it to a coincidence. It doesn’t work that way. People meet, maybe they fall in love, maybe they don’t, maybe they’re happy, maybe they’re sad. That’s life. If a refrigerator falls out of a window and squishes one of them, that’s life, too, but it’s not a story many people want to see. We stand there looking at the blood seeping out from under the Kelvinator and ask with Peggy Lee, “Is that all there is?” You can’t exactly say the movie cheats. It brings the refrigerator onscreen in the first scene. It ties the action to a key date in Kelvinator history, one everybody knows even if that’s all they know about refrigerators. But, come on. This isn’t the plot for a love story; it’s the plot for a Greek tragedy. It may be true, as “King Lear” tells us, that “As flies to wanton boys are we to th’ gods.” But we don’t want to think of ourselves as flies, or see fly love stories. Bring on the eagles. The fact is, “Remember Me” is a well-made movie. I cared about the characters. I felt for them. Liberate them from the plot’s destiny, which is an anvil around their necks, and you might have something. The film opens on a New York subway platform. A young girl witnesses the senseless murder of her mother. We meet her again as a young woman. She is Ally Craig (Emilie de Ravin, from “Lost”), the daughter of a police sergeant (Chris Cooper). She’s in college. Having lost his wife, he is intensely protective of her. We meet a feckless young man named Tyler Hawkins (Robert Pattinson). He slouches about trying to look like a dissipated Robert Pattinson. Drinks too much, smokes too much, has the official four-day stubble on his face, hair carefully messed up, bad attitude. He lives in a

ROGER EBERT

“Remember Me” 113 minutes PG-13, for violence, sexual content, language and smoking pigpen of an apartment with a roommate named Aidan (Tate Ellington), who might have been played by Oscar Levant back in the days when roommates were obnoxious, OK, but bearable. Tyler gets drunk one night, is thrown out of a club, gets in a fight, the cops are called, and when it’s almost all over, he

shoves one of the cops — Sgt. Craig, of course. Young drunks: It is EXTREMELY UNWISE to shove the cop who is about to let you off with a warning. Tyler is thrown in the slammer. Not long after, in school, the snaky Aidan tells Tyler that their pretty classmate Ally is the daughter of that very cop. He dares Tyler to ask her out and then dump her in revenge. Aidan is a jerk, but logically Tyler is too, because this is morally reprehensible. However, to the surprise of no one in the audience, Tyler falls for Ally and neglects to break up with her. Their courtship is a sensitive, well-acted progression through stages of mutual trust and Tyler’s gradual rediscovery of his own real feelings. There’s an intriguing subplot. Tyler’s parents are divorced. His father is the immensely wealthy Charles Hawkins (Pierce Bros-

nan), whose office looks larger than small airplane terminals. His mother, Diane (Lena Olin), has remarried. Tyler’s beloved kid sister, Caroline (Ruby Jerins), lives with her. Only with Caroline can Tyler relax and drop the sullen facade, showing warmth and love. Until he meets Ally — and then there are two safe harbors, and his rebirth begins. Pierce Brosnan plays a key role in the process. He has only a few significant scenes in the movie, but plays them so well that he convincingly takes a three-step character development and makes it into an emotional evolution. Meanwhile, Ally and Tyler encounter fierce opposition to their relationship from her dad, who can’t be blamed because as a cop he saw Tyler at his drunken worst. These people and their situation grow more involving as the

movie moves along. Then there’s a perfect storm of coincidences to supply the closing scenes. That’s what I object to. If we invest in a film’s characters, what happens to them should be intrinsically important to us. We don’t require emotional reinforcement to be brought in from outside. The movie tries to borrow profound meaning, but succeeds only in upstaging itself so overwhelmingly that its characters become irrelevant. I’m guessing the message is: Parents, when you have a rebel child who hates you, someday you will learn what a good person that child really was. It’s the dream of every tormented adolescent. Many of them become parents themselves and get their turn at being resented. Such is life. Roger Ebert is a film critic for The Chicago Sun-Times.

olly is a perfect 10. Kirk is a five. This scoring is provided by his best friends, who sadly inform him, “You can’t jump more than two.” Because of reasoning like that, Aristotle Onassis remains a hero to fours and fives everywhere. “She’s Out of My League,” which is sort of a good comedy, tells the story of a five who meets a 10 who believes there is a 10 inside “She’s Out of My League” of him fighting to get out. 106 minutes Kirk (Jay Baruchel) works as R, for language and sexual content a TSA security screener at the Pittsburgh airport.

Robert Downey Jr. and Rachel McAdams star in “Sherlock Holmes,” which is based on the books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

ON LOCAL SCREENS Here’s what’s showing on Central Oregon movie screens. For showtimes, see listings on Page 30.

WHAT’S NEW “Green Zone” — Matt Damon and his two-time Bourne director Paul Greengrass team up for a first-rate thriller set early in the war in Iraq. Damon’s chief warrant officer finds that U.S. intelligence is worthless, and his complaints lead him to discover the secret conspiracy intended to justify the American invasion. Greg Kinnear is the deceptive U.S. intelligence puppet-master, Brendan Gleeson is a grizzled old CIA hand whose agency has always doubted the stories about Saddam’s WMD, and Amy Ryan plays a newspaper reporter who serves Kinnear as a pipeline. Rating: Four stars. (R) “Our Family Wedding” — A marriage between an AfricanAmerican doctor (Lance Gross) and a Mexican-American law student (America Ferrera) runs into difficulties when they meet each other’s families, and predictable sitcom dilemmas emerge. The trumped-up feud between their fathers (Forest Whitaker and Carlos Mencia) rings false in every scene, and there’s at least one too many fights involving wedding cake. But America Ferrara and Lance Gross make a sympathetic couple, and Regina King is winsome as Whitaker’s lawyer and secret admirer. Rating: Two stars. (PG-13) “Remember Me” — Two 20ish kids, one a sullen rebel son,

the other the sweet daughter of a grieving father, fall in love and begin the transformations of their families. Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin play the young lovers, Pierce Brosnan is his rich and distant father and Chris Cooper is her police detective father. The story has undeniable appeal, but unfortunately depends on a late coincidence in an attempt to import profound meaning from outside the terms of the story. Rating: Three stars. (PG-13) “She’s Out of My League” — A feckless agent for TSA airport security (Jay Baruchel) meets a breathtaking blonde (Alice Eve) who improbably likes him, this despite his friends informing him that she’s a perfect 10 and he’s maybe a five. Despite unhelpful friends, obnoxious former romantic partners and his unbelievable parents (who welcome his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend into their home!), the two are essentially sweet and nice, and are rewarded for their goodness. Rating: Three stars. (R)

STILL SHOWING “Alice in Wonderland” — Tim Burton’s brilliant revisualization of Lewis Carroll’s fantasy, with Alice (Mia Wasikowska) now grown up, and the mordant denizens of Wonderland still basking in peculiarity. Beautifully drawn and told, except for the thirdact surrender to formula action. The 3-D adds nothing, drains color, is a distraction. Rating: Three stars. (PG) “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel” — The film is a kids comedy that screams “Direct to DVD.” It doesn’t help that it screams that in high, squeaky, three-part harmony. Whatever slim charms there were in the nostalgic, musically cute and slapstick-friendly first film of chipmunk mania are squished right out of “The Squeakquel” like

so much rodent roadkill. The cast is cut-rate and the script needed a serious visit from a serious gag writer. Rating: One star. (PG)S “Avatar” — James Cameron silences his doubters by delivering an extraordinary film. There’s still one man in Hollywood who knows how to spend $250 million wisely. The story involves a mission by U.S. Armed Forces to an Earth-sized moon, Pandora, in orbit around a massive star. They encounter a graceful race of towering blue-skinned forest dwellers living in harmony with their environment. Sam Worthington plays the hero, who is befriended by a Na’vi woman (Zoe Saldana) and chugs his allegiance. Rating: Four stars. (PG-13) “The Blind Side” — This redemptionminded sports flick serves its inspiration straight-up with no twist. Writer-director John Lee Hancock wisely lets the true story of Michael Oher — the AfricanAmerican teen who found a home and, eventually, football stardom, after being adopted by a wealthy Memphis family — speak for itself. That direct focus delivers a feelgood crowd-pleaser, but it also drains the film of the kind of subtle nuances that might have separated it from other Hollywood Hallmark-like efforts, including Hancock’s own “The Rookie.” The movie dutifully chronicles the transformation of Oher (newcomer Quinton Aaron) from blank slate to a fully formed young man, emphasizing the involvement of Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock). Bullock brings her trademark spunkiness to the mother hen role. Rating: Two and a half stars. (PG-13) “Brooklyn’s Finest” — Three cops, three journeys to what looks like doom. They aren’t bad guys, precisely, but they occupy a world of such unremitting violence that they’re willing to do what it takes to survive.

movies NEW DVD RELEASES The following movies were released to DVD on March 9.

“The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day” — Idiotic ode to macho horseshite (to employ an ancient Irish word). Distinguished by superb cinematography. The first film in 10 years from Troy Duffy, whose “The Boondock Saints” (1999) has become a cult fetish. Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus are Irish brothers who return to Boston for revenge and murder countless enemies in an incomprehensible story involving heavy metal cranked up to 12 and lots of boozing, smoking, swearing and looking fierce and sweaty. DVD Extras: Commentary, featurettes and deleted scenes. Rating: One star. (R) “Capitalism: A Love Story” — Michael Moore’s latest doesn’t suggest a solution for our economy, and is a little disorganized, but contains chilling explanations of “peasant insurance” and the Wall Street gambling known as “derivatives.” There is also awesome, longforgotten footage of Franklin Roosevelt calling for a Second Bill of Rights. And first-person testimony from victims of the meltdown. DVD Extras: Featurettes and deleted scenes. Rating:

Lem (voiced by Justin Long), left, and Chuck Baker (voiced by Dwayne Johnson) star in “Planet 51.” Three and a half stars. (R) “Old Dogs” — Stupefyingly dimwitted. John Travolta’s and Robin Williams’ agents weren’t perceptive enough to smell the screenplay in its advanced state of decomposition. The film seems to have lingered in post-production while editors struggled desperately to inject laugh cues. Example: Rita Wilson gets her hand slammed by a car trunk, and the sound track breaks into “Big Girls Don’t Cry.” DVD Extras: Commentary, bloopers and deleted

From previous page Well-crafted, good performances, but a screenplay that pulls strings a little too obviously. Richard Gere, Don Cheadle, Ethan Hawke, Wesley Snipes. Rating: Three stars. (R) “Cop Out” — An outstandingly bad cop movie, starring Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan as partners who get suspended (of course) and then try to redeem themselves by overthrowing a drug operation while searching for the valuable baseball card Willis wants to sell to pay for his daughter’s wedding. Morgan spends an unreasonable amount of time dressed as a cell phone, considering there is nothing to prevent him from taking it off. Kevin Smith, who directed, has had many, many better days. Rating: One and a half stars. (R) “The Crazies” — People in friendly Ogden Marsh, Iowa, start lurching around and killing their loved ones, and it’s up to the sheriff (Timothy Olyphant) and his doctor wife (Radha Mitchell) to figure out why — and survive. Well-enough made and acted, but zombies for me have worn out their interest. They lurch at you, you kill them, and maybe they’re dead. Rating: Two and a half stars. (R) “Crazy Heart” — Jeff Bridges won the Best Actor Oscar for his performance as Bad Blake, a brokedown, boozy country singer with a stubborn pride. Maggie Gyllenhaal finds all the right notes as a much younger reporter who comes for an interview and stays to be kissed. The songs, the singing, the milieu,

Jeff Bridges, left, and Maggie Gyllenhaal star in the drama “Crazy Heart.” the wisdom about alcoholism are all convincing. The stuff of countless country songs, made true and new. With Robert Duvall and Colin Farrell in key supporting roles. Written and directed by first-timer Scott Cooper. Rating: Four stars. (R) “Dear John” — A Special Forces soldier and a sweet South Carolina rich girl Meet Cute, fall in love, and pledge to meet and marry when his tour ends in a year. But it is not to be. Another one of those bittersweet Nicholas Sparks stories that laboriously endeavor to wring from us a sad smile. I was sadly smiling not at their loss, but at mine. Although Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried are attractive and well-matched as the wouldbe lovers, and Richard Jenkins makes autism seem kinda sweet

scenes. Rating: One star. (PG) “Planet 51” — Although not bowling me over, this is a jolly and good-looking animated feature in glorious 2-D. There’s a twist: This time the alien is a human, and he lands on a planet occupied by little green men. On this world everyone speaks English, it’s the Fabulous Fifties, and the rain is made of rocks. Perfectly pleasant as kiddie entertainment. DVD Extras: Featurettes, DVD game, music video montage, animation progression

(if it’s a mild case), this movie is so doomed to end exactly the way it does that we wonder why the characters don’t prevent it, if they want to. Rating: Two stars. (PG-13) “It’s Complicated” — Meryl Streep is a millionaire bakery owner in Santa Barbara who begins a warm friendship with her architect (Steve Martin) just as her ex-husband (Alec Baldwin) comes back into her love life. This inspires close calls, confusion among their children, fascination from her girlfriends and some funny scenes, but too many that belong on the day-old shelf. Rating: Two and a half stars. (R) “The Last Station” — On his country estate, in his last year, Leo Tolstoy (Christopher Plummer) rules over a household of intrigues. His wife, Sofya (Helen Mirren), is in fierce battle with his disciple Chertkov (Paul Giamatti), who thinks the count should leave his estate to the Russian people and not to Sofya and their 13 children. Chertkov hires young Valentin (James McAvoy) to act as Tolstoy’s private secretary and a spy, but Valentin is seduced by a nubile Tolstoyian (Kerry Condon) and broadens his views about the great man. Sort of a Merchant-Ivory picture with loud instead of quiet lust. Rating: Three stars. (R) “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief” — A teenage New Yorker (Logan Lerman) discovers he is a demigod: The son of the Greek god Poseidon (Kevin McKidd) and a human mother (Catherine Keener).

reels and extended scenes. Rating: Two and a half stars. (PG) “Precious: Based on the novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” — School is an ordeal of mocking cruelty for a fat teenager, and home is worse. Precious avoids looking at people, hardly ever speaks, is nearly illiterate, is pregnant. One of her teachers (Paula Patton) and a social worker (Mariah Carey) see something in her, or simply react to her obvious pain. They try to coax her out of her shell. She’s not stupid, but feels defeated.

Gabourey “Gabby” Sidibe gives a powerful performance in the title role, and Mo’Nique is frighteningly effective as her abusive mother. Directed by Lee Daniels, based on the novel “Push” by Sapphire. DVD Extras: Commentary, featurettes, deleted scenes and Sidibe’s audition footage. Rating: Four stars. (R) “Up In The Air” — Bingham (George Clooney) describes himself as a “termination facilitator.” He fires people for a living. When corporations need to downsize quickly but hate the mess, he flies in and breaks the news to the new former employees. In hard times, his business is great. He loves isolation from other people. Vera Farmiga plays his longtime mistress, and Anna Kendrick is his young trainee. To both he explains why he doesn’t need a home or family. The third great film from Jason Reitman (“Thank You for Smoking,” “Juno”). DVD Extras: Featurette, commentary and deleted scenes. Rating: Four stars. (R) COMING UP: Movies scheduled for national release March 16 include “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” “The Princess and the Frog,” “Ninja Assassin,” “Astro Boy,” “Did You Hear About the Morgans?” and “Broken Embraces.” Check with local video stores for availability.
