Tight budgets, reforms shine spotlight on area teachers unions By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin
Over the past year, debates have raged and difficult decisions have been made to balance school district budgets around the region. Some districts have successful-
ly negotiated concessions from their teachers unions, freezing contracted pay increases and delaying cost-of-living increases. But teachers unions and the benefits their members receive have been the target of many com-
plaints, as scores of Central Oregonians have watched their incomes shrink. Meanwhile, union representatives say their groups have given up plenty while still serving the same number of children. And the debate about the
strength and importance of teachers unions is likely to continue as the federal government pushes education reform and innovation, stoking union fear about changes to the traditional pay structure and alternative education options.
It’s not a new struggle. “We’re an easy target because we deal with the kids,” said Bend Education Association representative Bob Markland. “We’re ultimately responsible for them.” See Unions / A6

Critics decry path to possible resort By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin
A recent vote by the Deschutes County Planning Commission could help Commissioner Keith Cyrus finally turn his subdivision into a resort, an action that is raising questions about whether Cyrus is using his position to advocate for his family’s development interests. Eight months ago, it looked as if Cyrus’ longsought goal of converting his family’s As- Planning pen Lakes golf Commiscourse and sub- sioner Keith division east of Cyrus’ family Sisters into a owns the golf destination re- course and sort was head- subdivision. ed for another setback. Deschutes County staff had proposed removing subdivisions — including Aspen Lakes — from the county’s destination resort zone, which identifies lands eligible for resort development. Now, county planning officials have reversed course, and Aspen Lakes could stay on the map. See Cyrus / A3

It’s nights like March 4 that worry Bend Police Chief Sandi Baxter. When 911 dispatchers got a report from a woman who said she’d been assaulted and robbed downtown, police supervisors on duty started pulling officers off other calls. At least two were needed to interview the victim and witnesses, while nearly a half-dozen more tried to set up a perimeter around the area and track down the suspect. With only about 10 officers on duty, just about everything else had to wait. A few days later, the woman Inside revealed she’d • A snapshot made up the of the Police story. But in the Department, moment, officials Page A4 had to make a quick decision to flood the downtown area with almost every officer on duty — a decision Baxter said is difficult for a department that hasn’t expanded to keep up with the demands of a growing population. “I don’t think people understand how many calls we get,” she said. “We’re getting 1,800 calls in a week. Not all of them are priority calls, where someone’s life is in danger, but someone is calling because they need an officer.” To maintain current service levels, Baxter says she’ll need to hire about 14 officers and two support staffers over the next five years. But over the same period, city officials face a $21 million budget gap in the general fund — and without a new funding source, they say Baxter will have to make cuts rather than new hires. A new group tasked with analyzing the budget and coming up with a solution is slated to begin meeting this spring and present its findings to the Bend City Council by late summer. In the meantime, Baxter said she’s always looking for ways to cut back and make her department more efficient, but is running out of good options. See Police / A4

Editor’s note: This story is part of a New York Times series exploring the challenges of extending, or ending, the lives of very ill patients.
By Anemona Hartocollis New York Times News Service
By the time she was 38, Dr. Desiree Pardi had become a leading practitioner in palliative care, one of the fastest-growing fields in medicine, counseling terminally ill patients. She preached the gentle gospel of her profession, persuad-
ing patients to confront their illnesses and get their affairs in order and, above all, ensuring that their last weeks were not spent in pain. She was convinced that her own experience as a cancer survivor — the disease was first diagnosed when she was 31 — made her perfect for the job. See Palliative care / A8

Dr. Desiree Pardi, with her husband soon before she died in 2008, counseled patients about accepting death, until she chose to fight her own bout with cancer.
WASHINGTON — Just weeks after Chris Goehner, 25, an Iraq war veteran, got a dog, he was able to cut in half the dose of anxiety and sleep medications he took for post-traumatic stress disorder. The night terrors and suicidal thoughts that kept him awake for days on end ceased. Aaron Ellis, 29, another Iraq veteran with PTSD, scrapped his medications entirely soon after getting a dog — and set foot in a grocery store for the first time in three years. The dogs to whom they credit their improved health are not just pets. Rather, they are psychiatric service dogs specially trained to help traumatized veterans leave the battlefield behind as they reintegrate into society. See Service dogs / A7

‘It’s a wonderful job’ At 89, Justice Stevens contemplates the law — and how he will leave it By Adam Liptak New York Times News Service
WASHINGTON — “There are still pros and cons to be considered,” Justice John Paul Stevens said in his Supreme Court chambers Friday afternoon, reflecting on his reluctance to leave a job he loves after almost 35 years. But his calculus seemed to be weighted toward departure, and he said his decision on the matter would come very soon. “I do have to fish or cut bait, just for my own personal peace of mind and also in fairness to the process,” he said. “The president and the Senate need plenty of time to fill a vacancy.” Hints about Stevens’ possible departure started in September, when he confirmed that he had hired only a single law clerk, instead of the usual four, for the term that will start this fall. In occasional public statements since then, Stevens, the leader of the court’s liberal wing, said he had not yet made up his mind. But the White House is bracing for a summertime confirmation battle, the second of the Obama presidency. Stevens, who will turn 90 this month, said he did not like to give interviews “because it saves an awful lot of time if you don’t.” But he was courtly and candid in reviewing the trajectory of his tenure on the court and in summing up what he had learned about the role of the judge in American life. Like last year’s selection of Sonia Sotomayor to replace the retiring Justice David Souter, this change would be unlikely to remake the court’s ideological balance. But the matter would in some ways have more resonance, if only because of Stevens’ seniority and mastery of the court’s machinery. Appointed in 1975 by President Gerald Ford, a Republican, Stevens was in those days considered a somewhat idiosyncratic moderate. These days, he is lionized by the left. But Stevens rejected those labels Friday, saying that his judicial philosophy was a conservative one. “What really for me marks a conservative judge is one who doesn’t decide more than he has to in order to do his own job,” he said, relaxed in shirt sleeves and his signature bow tie in chambers floodlit by April sunshine. “Our job is to decide cases and resolve controversies. It’s not to write broad rules that may answer society’s questions at large.”
Amendment protects flag burning. “I know it’s not the popular position, but I’m still totally convinced I was right,” he said. “I still think I was right, but I wouldn’t amend the Constitution or anything like that to straighten it out.”
Stevens’ evolution His views have generally remained stable, he said, while the court has drifted to the right over time. “To the extent I look back at earlier situations,” he said, “I really don’t think I’ve changed all that much.” In the area of capital punishment, though, he said his views had shifted. “I certainly would not have expected during my first years on the court to have written an opinion like I did in Baze,” he said, referring to Baze v. Rees, the 2008 decision that rejected a challenge to lethal injections. Though Stevens voted with the majority, he wrote that he had come to the conclusion that the death penalty violates the Eighth Amendment. He went on to say his conclusion did not justify “a refusal to respect precedents that remain a part of our law.” He explained Friday why he did not follow the approach of justices William Brennan and Thurgood Marshall, who adopted a practice of dissenting in every death penalty case. “I’m still a member of the court, and I still have to work.” When the talk turned to balancing the pros and cons of moving on, Stevens said the fact that he was still hard at work spoke volumes. “It’s a wonderful job,” he said. “That’s perhaps the best evidence of it. I wouldn’t have hung around so long if I didn’t like the job and if I didn’t think I was able to continue to do it.”
3 in the running for Stevens’ seat The Obama administration, contemplating the possible retirement of Justice John Paul Stevens, is focusing on three candidates to succeed him, a White House official familiar with the deliberations is saying: U.S. Solicitor General Elena Kagan, and federal appellate judges Diane Wood and Merrick Garland. Stevens, who turns 90 on April 20, hasn’t told the White House whether he will step down, the source said. President Barack Obama hasn’t begun discussing candidates with aides, and the list of leading candidates could change in the coming weeks. Said White House spokesman Ben LaBolt, in an e-mail: “We’ll be prepared if a vacancy arises, but there’s no vacancy on the court, and there’s no short list awaiting a potential vacancy.” White House officials expect that any retirement announcement would come after the high court’s last argument of its current term, on April 28, the person said. The administration is preparing to move quickly with a nomination, the person said. — Bloomberg News

On the con side, he said he was starting to feel his age. “I have to notice that I get arthritis in my left knee now and then,” he said. “That wasn’t bothering me before.

As archbishop in Portland from 1986 to 1995, Cardinal William Levada removed Father Joseph Baccellieri in 1992 after learning about 20-year-old complaints involving teenage boys but allowed him to return on a limited basis under close supervision in 1994. “If I thought Father Baccellieri would be a risk to any child, I would never have reassigned him,” Levada said. Levada succeeded Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger as head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith after Ratzinger was elected pope in 2005. — The Associated Press

First review: big canvas with a few quirks By Rob Pegoraro The Washington Post
Now that the iPad is in the hands of early adopters, the hard work for Apple Inc. begins. Eager customers intent on being among the first owners of this new class of gadgetry stood in long lines across the country Saturday. They seemed willing to buy first — and discover uses for the iPad later. In some ways, it was reminiscent of the lines and hoopla surrounding the 2007 launch of the first iPhone. The difference: People knew then that the iPhone would replace their existing cell phone, an appliance that has become a must-have for everyone from uber-geeks to stay-at-home moms. With the iPad, which fits somewhere between phone and computer, Apple must convince people who already have smart phones, laptops, e-book readers, set-top boxes and home broadband connections that they need another device that serves many of the same purposes. The iPad is essentially a much larger version of Apple’s popular
iPhone, without the calling capabilities. For now, Apple is selling iPads that only connect to the Internet using Wi-Fi. Those models start at $499. Versions that also have a cellular data connection will be available by the end of the month. They will cost $130 more, with the most expensive at $829.
Cyrus
Cluster developments in Deschutes County
Continued from A1 Current and former planning commissioners say Cyrus has used his position on the commission to bring up the issue in ways not available to the general public, including at commission retreats and by talking to other commissioners about his situation outside of meetings. Minutes of planning commission meetings also show that Cyrus continues to raise his issue at meetings. For his part, Cyrus says that being on the planning commission has limited his ability to advocate his family’s development plans. “It would better serve our interests to be sitting in the audience, where I could participate in the discussion and certainly (son Matt Cyrus) can, but he can’t always be there,” Keith Cyrus said. The Cyrus family has been a fixture in Central Oregon for generations. Keith Cyrus and his wife and children have grown crops, including potatoes, mint and alfalfa, on their land near Sisters. Cyrus has been careful to recuse himself from decisions on the destination resort zone, but he’s raised the issue more than once at planning commission and Deschutes County Commission meetings, according to meeting minutes. Cyrus also acknowledges he has occasionally spoken to other planning commissioners about Aspen Lakes outside of public meetings.
Property must be on Deschutes County’s destination resort map in order for owners to apply for a resort, but much of the land is ineligible for resort development because it does not meet state requirements. In February, the Deschutes County Planning Commission voted to add “cluster development” subdivisions to the map. The Cyruses’ Aspen Lakes subdivision is one of only four such developments in county.
Meeting Monday The Deschutes County Commission is scheduled to hold a public hearing Monday at 10 a.m. on the planning commission’s recommendations for which types of land and developments to add or take away from the resort map. Property must be on the county’s destination resort map in order for owners to apply for a resort, but much of the land currently mapped in Deschutes County’s destination resort zone is ineligible for resort development because it does not meet state requirements. For example, state law requires resort properties to be at least 160 acres, more than three miles from any high-value crop areas and outside of especially sensitive biggame habitat. County commissioners said last year they hoped the destination resort remapping process would remove land ineligible for resorts and make it clearer which properties can be developed for resorts. But instead of removing properties from the map that do not meet state resort law, the planning commission has suggested adding land, including about 58,000 acres zoned for farm use. In February, the planning commission voted to put subdivisions on the map of resort-eligible land in Deschutes County. Commissioners also voted to specifically add “cluster development” subdivisions to the map. The Cyruses’ Aspen Lakes subdivision is one of only four cluster developments in Deschutes County.
The Aspen Lakes issue Planning commissioners have discussed the Cyruses’ desire to convert Aspen Lakes into a destination resort since at least early 2008, when the commission heard the family’s application to create

Quick review The first words that come to mind after switching on a $699, 64-gigabyte model loaned by Apple were “blank slate.” This device’s larger touch screen, 9.7 inches across, looks empty compared with those on Apple’s smaller iPhone and iPod touch. The most dramatic difference surfaces when you enter text on an iPad. Compared with an iPhone’s on-screen keyboard, the iPad’s looks enormous. In a vertical, portrait orientation, it may be less comfortable than an iPhone keyboard, since you have to stretch to hit the middle keys with your thumbs; in landscape mode, it’s just possible to touch-type, with help from its auto-correction software.

new county rules to allow certain cluster developments to convert to resorts. Keith Cyrus recused himself from the vote on the issue, but his son, Matt Cyrus, spoke in favor of the proposal. The planning commission ultimately voted 4-2 against the idea, and the county commission also later rejected the application. Oregon’s land use agency also opposed the Cyrus proposal in two separate letters, one of them from Department of Land Conservation and Development Director Richard Whitman. Developed subdivisions cannot convert to destination resorts because state law requires resorts to build at least 50 units of tourist lodging, such as a hotel, before developers can sell lots. The prominent farming family has not given up on the idea, however, and Keith Cyrus talked about his frustration with the county’s denial of the resort conversion and other applications during a March 2009 planning commission retreat. Commissioners at the retreat had an opportunity to raise issues related to the county’s planning work, and Cyrus was one who critiqued how the county’s planning staff handled his personal land use case. Cyrus “described in detail how difficult the land use processes have been as they specifically applied to his family’s past and present land use applications,” according to minutes from the retreat. “These included his attempts to convert his cluster development to a destination resort and the use of his land for ‘events.’ He stressed that his family had settled this land long ago, and he feels he has received inconsistent, untimely, and biased information from the Planning Division.” Cyrus said last week he did not recall talking about his family’s cluster development and attempt to convert to a destination resort at the retreat.
Iraqi family of 25 killed, stirring fear of more violence
The Dallas Morning News
Apple’s iPad tablet computer went on sale Saturday morning, drawing crowds to stores across the country and rivaling the frenzy when the iPhone went on sale in 2007. The bigger screen also makes browsing the Web feel more like the same action on a “real” computer. But with no support for Adobe’s Flash plug-in, parts of some sites remain inaccessible on the iPad. The 1.5-pound iPad feels heavier than it looks; this gadget seems made for a comfortable sofa. Like its more compact cousins,
the iPad cannot run third-party programs in the background. So although the new iPad-friendly Pandora Web-radio application looks terrific on the iPad’s bigger display, it still stops playing when you switch to your e-mail. This seems more of a problem on the iPad, thanks to a screen big enough to invite switching among multiple programs.
Meeting minutes show Cyrus also raised the issue of turning existing subdivisions into resorts at a joint meeting of the planning and county commissions on Jan. 6, when he said an existing subdivision could decide to stay on the resort map and its owners should then be able to add amenities and become a resort.
the county’s development blueprint, known as the comprehensive plan, Planning Director Nick Lelack said. “I think he’s expressed interest in that, but hasn’t formally applied,” Lelack said. Meanwhile, Lelack said the Deschutes County Commission is interviewing candidates to replace Quatre and will likely make a decision in mid-April.
Criticism Cyrus’ close involvement with the destination resort issue bothers some who have been part of the county’s planning process. They have questioned Cyrus’ comments about his personal land use issues, and say the destination resort provision for cluster developments seems targeted at Aspen Lakes. Former Planning Commissioner Susan Quatre, who resigned recently because of health issues and “disenchantment with the process,” says she believes Cyrus “works the system” and questions his “collaborative relationship with the planning commission.” A year ago at the retreat, Quatre said it was an inappropriate use of taxpayers’, planning staff’s and some planning commissioners’ time for commissioners to air personal grievances with the county’s planning process, according to meeting minutes. Quatre said it was a violation of the public trust because the public does not have direct access to the commissioners to bring up their own issues. Former Planning Commissioner Brenda Pace was also concerned and said at the retreat the commissioners’ personal and financial goals should not influence decisions, according to minutes. When planning commissioners suggested adding cluster developments to the resort map in late January, Commissioner Ed Criss said the idea seemed to be targeted to help the Cyruses’ resort plans. “I have a bit of a problem with that because we have an existing situation,” Criss said, referring to the mostly built-out subdivision and golf course at Aspen Lakes. But Brown, the planning commissioner who suggested adding Aspen Lakes and three other cluster developments to the resort zone, said Cyrus’ interests did not factor into his decision. “I was not trying to target something to Keith’s property,” Brown said. “As the planning commission chairman, any time the conversation becomes personal, I stop it. Or if it’s private, I just won’t hear it.” Quatre also was concerned that other commissioners occasionally continued talking about issues before them after public meetings adjourned. “Sometimes after the meetings, four or so of those guys will sit around and talk about the meetings,” Quatre said. “I stayed there one time to see what they talked about. They kept right on talking about business.” Cyrus acknowledged it might be a problem for the commissioners to continue discussing issues after meetings ended. “Technically, we potentially have an issue when we adjourn a meeting, and we’re all still there and we visit afterwards,” Cyrus said. Cyrus’ term expires June 30, but he can apply to extend it six months to work on a major project such as the current update of

BAGHDAD — The killers came at night, speaking passable English, wearing uniforms and carrying weapons that resembled those of the American military. By the time they left the village of Hawr Rajab on Friday evening, they had fatally shot or slit the throats of 25 members of an extended family, Iraqi officials said Saturday, in a chilling episode of violence reminiscent of the worst days of the country’s sectarian warfare in 2006 and 2007. Most of the 19 male victims, who ranged in age from teenagers to men in their 70s, were members of Iraqi security forces or of Awakening Councils — groups that now partner with American forces and are employed by the Iraqi government to protect Sunni neighborhoods, but whose members had once been allied with Sunni extremist groups like al-Qaida in Mesopotamia during fighting against American troops. Members of Awakening Councils are often branded by al-Qaida as traitors, but their families have typically not been attacked. The Iraqi authorities said 25 people had been arrested as part of the investigation into the killings, including some who lived near the families.
Details of the attack remained sketchy Saturday, as police cordoned off the neighborhood and ordered a curfew there. The known survivors are all children. Saturday, people in the isolated villages south of the capital locked themselves in their homes after the attack, which raised concerns that the country’s deadlock over forming a government could provoke a renewal in sectarian bloodshed. Last month’s elections polarized the country, with Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki refusing to accept that an alliance led by his rival Ayad Allawi, favored by Sunnis, had won more parliamentary seats than his bloc. Iraqi security officers, U.S. military personnel and Western officials are expressing concern that al-Qaida in Iraq could re-establish itself on Baghdad’s rural perimeter and cause havoc before the next government is formed. The attack appeared designed to intimidate the Sunni population.

Measuring service Bend currently has 86 sworn officers and three vacant positions. One officer is planning to retire in July, but the department will be hiring two new officers in June, leaving a total of two unfilled spots. The new officers, however, won’t be ready to hit the streets on their own for about 18 months because they have to attend the police academy and go through a lengthy field training process. Because of that lag time — and because the “Obviously, department has if we reduce a limited numpeople, we’re ber of training going to have officers — Baxto reduce some ter said catching service level. up with a few And that gets years’ worth of back to our growth will take core function: some time. preservation “Even if monof community ey starts comsafety.” ing in, and we’re — Sandi told, ‘Go ahead Baxter, Bend and hire 10 peopolice chief ple,’ we can’t do that all at once,” she said. The city’s tentative budgeting for the Police Department shows the numbers steadily rising from about $16.9 million in the 200910 fiscal year to $24.4 million in 2015-16. Baxter said those numbers are based on projected population levels and service calls that likely would come from local growth. This year, the department expects to get about 59,300 calls, but by 2016, that could surge to more than 69,100. Those numbers represent calls that come in to the department from people in the community. Adding calls initiated by officers puts the current number closer to 95,000 per year. In addition, the department calculates how many calls each

Bend Police Officer Scott Dickerson uses a radar gun to monitor traffic speeds along the Bend Parkway on Tuesday. Because of budget cuts at the city, the Police Department’s staffing levels have dropped in recent years, and the city is looking for new funding to help pay for public safety services. officer is dispatched to each year (currently about 680) and how many officers it has per 1,000 people (currently about 1.04, down from 1.58 per 1,000 in 1994.) Baxter said Bend’s officer-topopulation ratio is considerably lower than the state average of 1.4 officers per 1,000, and lower than other cities of relatively similar size, including Beaverton, Hillsboro and Gresham. And she said Bend is in a unique situation because of its location. Unlike some of those other cities, which can get help from other large police agencies in a matter of minutes, Bend has to lean on assistance coming from much farther away when local officers need backup. “When you’re in an urban area, you’ve got immediate help. ... We’re isolated here,” she said. The lower number of officers has caused an increase in the department’s response times in recent years. Responses to motor vehicle accidents, crimes in progress and both high- and low-priority
calls have all increased by several seconds between 2007 and 2009, according to department statistics. “Our efficiency just drops off, the lower our staffing levels are,” said Capt. Jim Porter.
Making adjustments In recent years, the department has scaled back on its purchase of equipment, delayed replacement of vehicles and reduced some regular programs. Last summer, Baxter cut the regular downtown patrol; this year, she reduced the traffic team by two officers, who went back into the regular patrol rotation. The department also has shifted its scheduling to a new system that aims to put more officers on at the busiest times of day. Porter said officials are still gathering data on the altered schedules, but so far, it looks as if it’s helped to cut down on overtime. In recent years, a growing group of volunteers has been helping to
spread out some of the workload. Currently, the department has 24 volunteers, including about 15 who help out on a regular basis, said community liaison Steve Esselstyn. They regularly tag abandoned vehicles, respond to calls about cars parked in handicapped spots and check empty houses. Volunteers also help direct traffic at special events and sometimes provide additional foot patrols in high-traffic areas. Esselstyn said he’s working to add more tasks for volunteers, including performing safety checks on patrol cars to save time for officers when they start their shifts. “The whole point, as it expands, is to take things the officers had to do, and release them for more red lights and sirens types of things,” he said. But because they are not sworn officers, volunteers can only provide so much help. They do not carry weapons and can’t write citations or make arrests. Officers no longer respond to

some of the calls they would have a few years ago, such as minor car accidents or some shoplifting incidents. If the city doesn’t find a way to fill the gap in the general fund, Baxter has said she could have to cut four to six positions as soon as the 2011-12 fiscal year and another four positions the following year, which could again change what officers respond to and how fast they get to each call. “Obviously, if we reduce people, we’re going to have to reduce some service level,” Baxter said. “And that gets back to our core function: preservation of
community safety.” In recent months, the department’s call volume has leveled off, but officials said they’re not sure what to expect as the economy turns around and the weather gets warmer. “Our concern is what’s going to happen this summer,” Porter said. “If the economy starts coming up, people start coming to Bend more, we don’t know what will happen with our staffing levels, with our call levels.” Erin Golden can be reached at 541-617-7837 or at egolden@bendbulletin.com.

The arrests have taken aim at some of Chavez’s most prominent critics ahead of legislative elections in September, and they illustrate Chavez’s attempts to tighten control over institutions like the judiciary. Senior officials in Chavez’s government, including Attorney General Luisa Ortega, say the most recent arrests were necessary to suppress conspiracies or to prosecute people whose comments were deemed offensive. In Afiuni’s case, Ortega said the judge had illegally freed the businessman Eligio Cedeno, who had been jailed on charges of circumventing currency controls. New York Times News Service

“There’s no secret they have considerable influence on legislative decisions. They’re the largest PAC in the state, and therefore they make major contributions to campaigns. ... And they do influence a lot of things at the state level, so then we deal with the outcome of those decisions.” — Ron Wilkinson, Bend-La Pine school superintendent, on the Oregon Education Association teachers union’s political action committee, People for the Improvement of Education
Unions Continued from A1
Teachers unions’ evolving role University of Oregon associate professor Marcus Widenor, who works at the university’s Labor Education and Research Center, said the history of teachers unions begins with the National Education Association, which dates back to the 1850s and which was mainly controlled by administrators. As public school systems started to grow, the interests of classroom teachers and administrators began to diverge. In 1916, the American Federation of Teachers was founded in Chicago, and the National Education Association eventually became a teacher association. The Oregon Education Association, which represents about 48,000 educators around the state, is part of the National Education Association and is the primary union for K-12 education. Through the years, teachers became more involved in politics, supporting local school budgets and often issues surrounding women’s rights. “It used to be that a woman who got pregnant or got married lost her job as a teacher,” Widenor said. As teachers unions stayed involved in local politics, they began pushing for laws that allowed public employees to negotiate contracts. Oregon’s public employee collective bargaining law passed in 1973, one of the earliest and most comprehensive laws in the United States. That’s when teachers unions became a powerful part of Oregon politics. “You could see their growth and power in the state,” Widenor said.
Union goals The unions’ main goals have been fairness, but they’ve also sought to raise wages and benefits for teachers. And they’ve been successful. According to the National Education Association, Oregon’s average teacher salary is about $54,000, while a beginning teacher earns about $31,500. Only 16 states have higher average teacher salaries. Every year, about 1,000 members come together to make decisions and debate policy. From that meeting, the association determines its official lobbying positions. “That’s how we figure out where we stand, what it means to be pro-public education,” said BethAnne Darby, the assistant executive director for OEA’s public affairs. The association has a political action committee called People for the Improvement of Education, which uses its funds for lobbying and supporting legislators. Darby said the association is “party-blind,” choosing to support legislators based on their education stance. In 2008, nine of 10 recommended Oregon Senate candidates were Democrats, as were 44 of 51 Oregon House candidates. According to the OEA Web site, the association’s recommended candidates for the Oregon House won 79 percent of their races, and recommended Senate candidates won 90 percent of theirs. Ron Wilkinson has handled collective bargaining and worked with the Bend Education Association throughout his 12-year tenure at Bend-La Pine Schools. Wilkinson, now the superintendent, says teachers unions aren’t going to disappear anytime soon, so he’s always tried to see the union as a partner, not an enemy. “It would take a pretty major act of God or legislation to do away with (collective bargaining),” he said. There are benefits, Wilkinson said, to having a powerful lobbying force like OEA in Salem. “They bring a lot of political clout to bear on (school) funding issues,” he said. But it’s not always so simple for him. “There’s no secret they have considerable influence on legislative decisions. They’re the largest PAC in the state, and therefore they make major contributions to campaigns and elected official campaigns,” Wilkinson said. “And they do influence a lot of things at the state level, so then we deal with the outcome of
those decisions.” But the unions haven’t won every battle. Widenor pointed to a series of court decisions that determined unions can’t use class size as part of collective bargaining.
Education reforms And unions may face their next big test as the federal government tries to establish new education initiatives that are heavy on innovation. High on that list of reforms are charter schools and merit pay. Darby said OEA is concerned about some of those innovative ideas. “I think what we want as an association is sound, researchbased public policy around public education, and I don’t know that many of these ideas that are being pushed right now, that there’s any research to back those up and show they are effective,” she said. “It doesn’t have anything to do with being a union; it has to do with being a caring person, representing caring public educators.” Darby doesn’t believe merit pay is in Oregon’s future. “I think in Oregon people understand that is an inappropriate way to structure compensation, and OEA adamantly opposes merit pay or a system that bases educator compensation on such a single factor,” she said.
‘Things can’t stay the same’ Others aren’t sure unions will be able to stop reforms they might disagree with. “One of (the unions’) accomplishments has been uniform and equitable pay,” Widenor said. “But what’s happened is a feeling in the reform education movement that we have to have incentives that go outside of that, and that’s at odds of some union collective bargaining agreements.” The unions are “kind of feeling their way through the reform agenda without trading teacher rights,” Widenor said. “And the public’s not too sympathetic with that because they see the dire situation of the schools.” Locally, school districts are working with unions to find new ways of compensating teachers through the CLASS Project, a program of the nonprofit education reform group Chalkboard Project that provided $85,000 in planning grants to Bend-La Pine, Crook County, Redmond, Sisters and High Desert Education Service districts. The money is intended to improve teacher evaluations, increase career paths and professional development opportunities for teachers, and implement new pay structures for them. Markland, the BEA’s full-time union representative, supports the changes being proposed through the CLASS Project. There are 873 teachers in the BEA, and this year Markland has dealt with about 100 issues among the membership. The evaluation process, Markland admits, is a weak one, and one that he’s excited to try to improve through the CLASS Project. “Unions tend to want to lean on the old ways,” he said. “But things can’t stay the same.” Markland doesn’t believe in strictly linking teacher pay to student test performance, but he believes performance must be part of a teacher’s evaluation. Improving evaluations could alleviate Markland’s biggest frustration: the public’s perception that unions protect bad teachers. “There was a period of time that was sort of ‘protect teachers at all costs,’” said Wilkinson, the superintendent. “I don’t see our unions trying to protect bad teachers, but they will protect their due process rights.” In Bend-La Pine Schools, Wilkinson said, union leadership works with the district to ensure teachers receive appropriate disciplinary action for wrongdoing. “They aren’t the district’s advocate, but they will help us communicate a message to change their behavior,” he said. “When the best thing is to resign, they will help to carry that message to the person.” Markland thinks more bad teachers could be removed from the classroom if administrators were willing to do the work. “There is a procedure that allows any teacher to be put on a plan of assistance,” he said. “It’s not a short process, but there are ways.”
It’s easiest to get rid of teachers in their first few years in a district, while they’re on a probationary period, so it’s the young teachers without much support who are often removed from the classroom instead of being given tools that will make them capable teachers. Meanwhile, teachers employed with districts for many years who may no longer be effective in the classroom are left alone. And Markland believes that’s because too few administrators are willing to go through the process required to do away with those teachers. “It falls squarely on the shoulders of administrators who have a lot of evaluations to do,” he said. “Administrators allow them to remain in the classroom.” That could be part of the unions’ future, at least in Central Oregon: finding a way to improve education and remove bad teachers through a stronger evaluation system. “I think a lot of people understand that the way we evaluate performance, and the way people progress professionally, and the way we compensate professionals is going to need to change,” Wilkinson said. “We’re bringing a new generation of people into the profession that aren’t necessarily connected to the old system, and are not going to probably stay around and wait to make a good salary or a reasonable salary.” The union, Wilkinson said, has been at the table for each of those discussions. “We all know that ultimately we’re going to have to figure out how to work that stuff into a system that’s been bargained for 30 or 40 years,” he said. “But that’s not stopping the conversation.” Sheila G.

MIDTERM ELECTIONS
GOP ’s opposition tactics prove less bankable than anticipated By R. Jeffrey Smith The Washington Post
The Republican Party’s strategy since early last year of lockstep opposition to the Obama administration’s major legislative initiatives hasn’t brought in as much money as some party leaders may have hoped for. With eight months to go before congressional elections, House and Senate Democratic candidates exceed in virtually every important campaign fundraising category. Democratic House lawmakers appear likely to reverse their seven-cycle record of being outspent by House Republicans, according to recent finance reports. Democrats in both chambers are enjoying the traditional advantages of majority-party status — and then some. They lead in donations by political action committees, by committees affiliated with the national political parties or with House and Senate leaders, and in individual contributions to incumbent lawmakers. In some instances, their lead exceeds what the Republicans had when that party controlled both chambers in the 2005-06 midterm cycle.
Awaiting a surge To no surprise, analysts differ by party on the causes and significance of the disparity. Some Republicans say a donations surge may still come in the campaign’s final months, particularly as the party courts new, small donors outside Washington. They also complain that donations to party stalwarts have been affected by internal squabbles with tea partiers, which they hope will end soon. Republicans also say the party must remain unified in opposition to President Barack Obama if it wants to energize the most reliable donors, volunteers and voters. “If we look like winners, money will follow,” said Steven Gordon, an adviser to Senate Republican leaders, who in the past has raised $70 million for GOP congressional candidates. But recent controversy over lav-
“If we look like winners, money will follow.” — Steven Gordon, an adviser to Senate Republican leaders, who is advocating a continuation of the GOP opposition strategy ish and questionable expenditures by the Republican National Committee — including chartered airplanes and a young Republicans’ night out at a bondage-themed nightclub in Hollywood — appears likely to complicate efforts by the Republicans to overcome their deficit. Some traditional party supporters, such as Family Council President Tony Perkins, have recently urged followers to respond by withholding donations from the national party. Democrats say their higher tallies so far are just the beginning, because campaign cash usually follows political momentum, and Obama’s health care triumph may have ended a political slide. “There’s been a real kickup of wind in Democratic party sails,” said Jonathan Mantz, a former finance director for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign. “Success will breed success, and the energy will bring new resources” to congressional candidates. Alex Vogel, a Republican lobbyist and former chief counsel to Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and to the Republican National Senatorial Committee, noted that Democrats in coastal and big-city districts “hold more expensive
seats than we do.” Democratic Senate candidates “should be farther ahead,” he said.
Wild card One wild card this year is the impact of last year’s Supreme Court decision lifting limits on direct expenditures by corporations or unions on advertising supporting particular candidates. Some Democrats are concerned corporations might open their checkbooks for their favorites, but an internal Republican fundraising presentation for party leaders in February predicted it would have “NO direct effect on ... (Republican) parties or candidates.” Likewise, spending this year by regulated advocacy groups, known as “527s,” is hard to predict, particularly since a federal court said on March 26 that such groups can now accept unlimited contributions by wealthy individuals. So far, both collections and expenditures by Democratic or liberal-leaning groups have outpaced those by Republican or conservative groups, although a historically large Democratic advantage appears to have narrowed somewhat.

The Puppies Behind Bars program, based in New York, uses prisoners to raise and train psychiatric service dogs. The animals are taught to obey 87 commands, including switching lights on and off, left,
and fetching items like keys for their owners, right. These service dogs learn the tricks at the Mid-Orange Correctional Facility in Warwick, N.Y.
Service dogs
The dogs help soldiers understand “what’s happening as it’s happening, what to do about it and then doing it. You can use your dog kind of like a mirror to reflect back your emotional tenor.”
Continued from A1 Because of stories like these, the federal government, not usually at the forefront of alternative medical treatments, is spending several million dollars to study whether scientific research supports anecdotal reports that the dogs might speed recovery from the psychological wounds of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In dozens of interviews, veterans and their therapists reported drastic reductions in PTSD symptoms and in reliance on medications after receiving a service dog. Veterans rely on their dogs to gauge the safety of their surroundings, allowing them to venture into public places without constantly scanning for snipers, hidden bombs and other dangers lurking in the minds of those with the disorder.
— Joan Esnayra, a geneticist whose research team has received $300,000 from the Defense Department LEFT: At the Mid-Orange Correctional Facility in Warwick, N.Y., service dogs share a room with the prisoners who help train them. In the past two years, the Puppies Behind Bars program has placed 23 dogs with veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
87 ways to help In August, Jacob Hyde got his service dog, Mya, from Puppies Behind Bars, a program based in New York that uses prisoners to raise and train dogs for lives of service. The organization has placed 23 dogs with veterans with PTSD in the last two years, training them to obey 87 commands. “If I didn’t have legs, I would have to crawl around,” said Hyde, 25. “If I didn’t have Mya, I wouldn’t be able to leave the house.” If Hyde says “block,” the dog will stand perpendicularly in front of him to keep other people at a distance. If he asks Mya to “get his back,” the dog will sit facing backward by his side. The dogs are trained to jolt a soldier from a flashback, dial 911 on a phone and even sense a panic attack before it starts. And, perhaps most important, the veterans’ sense of responsibility, optimism and self-awareness is renewed by caring for the dogs. The dogs help soldiers understand “what’s happening as it’s happening, what to do about it and then doing it,” said Joan Esnayra, a geneticist whose research team has received $300,000 from the Defense Department to study the issue. “You can use your dog kind of like a mirror to reflect back your emotional tenor.” The dog is also often the first visible manifestation of a former soldier’s disability. Because people are curious about the animal, the veteran gets an opportunity to talk about his condition and
his war experiences, discussions that can contribute to recovery. More broadly, the dogs help increase public awareness of PTSD, which the Veterans Affairs Department said affects about one quarter of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans with whom it has worked. Under a bill written by Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., veterans with PTSD will get service dogs as part of a pilot program run by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Training a psychiatric service dog and pairing it with a client costs more than $20,000. The government already helps provide dogs to soldiers who lost their sight or were severely wounded in combat, but had never considered placing dogs for emotional damage.
When to start? But there is debate within the emergent field about the appropriate time to pair a veteran with a dog. Sara Meisinger, chief of occupational therapy at the warrior transition unit at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, said a service dog should be used only in the final stage of treatment, after a soldier has accomplished as much as possible with traditional therapy. Many experts say the veterans should be living on their own for at least a year be-
fore they receive a dog. But when Gloria Gilbert Stoga, who runs Puppies Behind Bars, received an application from Maj. James Becker, she decided, with support from his doctors, to take a chance on a veteran who had just left inpatient care. Becker, 45, suffered two severe brain injuries in separate explosions, earning two Purple Hearts in his three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. When he came home last winter, his 24-year-old daughter, also an Iraq veteran, was being treated for leukemia. In Becker’s mind, home started to resemble Afghanistan’s Helmand province. His PTSD symptoms worsened, and a suicide attempt in July landed him in San Diego Naval Medical Center for seven months. A few weeks after leaving the San Diego hospital, Becker flew to New York to collect his dog, Annie, and participate in a two-week training session with Puppies Behind Bars. Still, he said he spent a lot of time alone in his room “because it’s easier to deal with four walls than it is to come out and deal with crowds.” But within days, Annie was beginning to pull him out of his shell. “She helps me meet people,” he said, describing how people are attracted to the dog. He added, “I like to think it’s going to get better.”
“If I didn’t have legs, I would have to crawl around. If I didn’t have Mya, I wouldn’t be able to leave the house.” — Jacob Hyde, 25

Palliative care Continued from A1 In 2008, while vacationing in Boston, she went to an emergency room with a fever. The next day, as the doctors began to understand the extent of her underlying cancer, “they asked me if I wanted palliative care to come and see me.” She angrily refused. She had been telling other people to let go. But faced with that thought herself, at age 40, she wanted to fight on. While she and her colleagues had been trained to talk about accepting death, and making it as comfortable as possible, she wanted to try treatments even if they were painful and offered only a 2 percent chance of survival. When the usual cycles of chemotherapy failed to slow the cancer, she found a doctor who would bombard her with more. She force-fed herself through a catheter and drank heavy milkshakes to keep up her weight. Over the past decade, palliative care has become standard practice in hospitals across the country. Born out of a backlash against the highly medicalized death that had become prevalent in American hospitals, it stresses the relief of pain; thinking realistically about goals; and recognizing that, after a certain point, aggressive treatment may prevent patients from enjoying what life they had left. Pardi had gone into the field because she thought her experience as a patient would make her a better doctor. Now she came faceto-face with all the ambiguities of death, and of her profession. She remembered patients who complained to her that she did not know them well enough to recognize that they were stronger than she had thought. Now she discovered that she felt the same way about her own doctors. “I think they underestimated me,” she said in an interview last summer. She came to question the advice she had been giving. She thought about quitting. “I just decided I have to believe in what I’m saying,” she said.
‘It was bad news’ Pardi began an M.D.-Ph.D. program at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in Manhattan at age 24. In 1998, she was halfway through when she decided to take a few months off to join her husband, Robert Pardi, in the United Arab Emirates, where he was working as a portfolio manager. She needed a routine health screening to obtain a visa to remain in the country, and opted for a more thorough exam. At the hospital in Dubai, she later explained, the custom was for doctors to talk to the husband. So her husband came home early one afternoon, and instead of taking her out for Turkish coffee and sweets, sat her down and said, “I’m afraid it was bad news.” Further tests showed she had breast cancer. She had just turned 31. She discovered she liked having her husband act as a buffer between her and her doctors. From then on, even when in the U.S., her doctors were told they should communicate only with him. She light-heartedly called herself “the Queen of Denial,” because she did not want to know anything about her disease. Her husband gave her just enough information to enable her to make decisions, and she always chose the most aggressive treatment. When a doctor in Dubai suggested she wait a bit before getting a mastectomy, she would not hear it. “Off! I want it off!” she insisted. After the mastectomy and months of chemotherapy, she was told the cancer was gone. Determined to try anything that might prevent a recurrence, she underwent a stem cell transplant in 1999, before they were found to be ineffective for breast cancer. She had her other breast removed protectively, though her double-D figure had been a source of pride. She graduated from medical school in 2002, and was invited to appear on a segment of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” about people who had overcome obstacles and graduated. She was tongue-tied, but expressed her joy by throwing her arms around a startled Winfrey. She did her residency at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, where her mentor, Dr. Mark Pecker, said she had among the highest medical board scores he had ever seen. Then what she had been dreading happened. During her residency, her cancer returned, invading her liver, and she was treated with drugs and surgery. Even after that, she was never fully in remission. When it came time to choose a specialty, she was drawn to oncology and psychiatry, but thought palliative care was a good compromise. During one hospitalization at NewYork-Presbyterian, she had asked for intravenous Dilaudid, a strong opioid, for “10 out of 10” pain. She was labeled a “drug
New York Times News Service
“Definitely, we did things that we knew would have very small chances of working,” says Dr. Betty Lim, a Mount Sinai palliative care specialist who treated Desiree Pardi. “I don’t think, at least during the time when she was conscious, she ever got to the point where she was like, ‘OK, this is it.’” seeker” by the medical staff, she said — perhaps because she was asking for the drug by name — as if she were an addict craving crack. It was a revelation that would lead her toward palliative care: that treating the pain was as important as treating the sickness. In 2006, Weill Cornell needed a medical director for its new palliative care service, and recruited her. Her inexperience and illness gave the hiring committee pause, said Dr. Ronald Adelman, cochief of geriatrics, who became her supervisor. But she won them over with her enthusiasm. She was sparing about sharing her own survival story with her patients; she needed to maintain some boundaries to be able to do her job. Before she walked into a patient’s room, she said, she took a deep breath and reminded herself that “it has nothing to do with me.” Some of her patients were celebrities. Many patients were older than she was, but some were disturbingly close to her in age. About a year ago, she was asked to speak to a young woman who refused to accept that her life was limited. Dory Hottensen, a social worker who was there, later recounted how Pardi sat down and held the woman’s hand. “I could see that Desiree had an unusual connection with her,” Hottensen said. Pardi spoke kindly, and “told her that she was not going to get better. In fact, she was going to die very soon. What did she want for her last days? How did she want to die?” She persuaded the woman, who had cancer, to sign a do-not-resuscitate order. But when the woman died a few days later, Pardi cried. “I again couldn’t help but wonder what was going through her mind,” the social worker said.
Chemo, but a full life Chemotherapy had become a regular part of Pardi’s life, scheduled every Friday. In between, she tried to cram in her work; trips to Bash Bish Falls in Massachusetts, where a friend had a country house; playing with her Yorkie; and being “Auntie Mame,” as she put it, to her niece Jessica. In the summer of 2008, she and her husband took Jessica to Boston for a weekend. After a day of whale-watching and visiting the ducklings in the Public Gardens, Pardi woke up with a high fever. Her husband called an ambulance. She was admitted to Massachusetts General Hospital, and it soon became clear how far her cancer had spread. A doctor asked if she would like a palliative care consultation. She was shocked; she interpreted the question to mean that she had been identified as someone who was dying, and she did not think of herself that way. Months of constant chemotherapy followed. Based on her symptoms, the standard medical advice, she said, would have been that she could no longer tolerate chemotherapy, that it “was going to become more of a burden than a help,” and that she should start to think about how she wanted to live out her remaining time. But she did not want to stop, even when she had exhausted standard chemotherapy regimens. So she turned elsewhere. “What I realized was that if I was still being seen by an oncologist who would be affiliated with the hospital, they would have just said ‘go to hospice,’” she said in the interview last July. She was fortunate that she could afford treatments not fully covered by insurance, hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth over the years. During the interview, which took place a year after her trip to the Boston emergency room, she said she wanted to write to the doctors there to say, “Look here! I’m still here!” She said she thought of all the times that her own patients had argued that she was underestimating their capacity to get better. “Then am I writing them off too soon?” she mused. “When they do say, ‘Well, you don’t know me. I can, blah-blah-blah,’ that’s what I said, too, in my mind. ‘You don’t know me.’ You don’t know my husband, for sure.” But she knew
her own colleagues would tell her that she was not really getting better. “I’ve said it myself many times to patients,” she said. She feared that she could no longer, in good conscience, tell patients they were going to die when she refused to accept that her own death might be near. “And so I felt like, I feel like, if I now go and tell a patient what I used to tell patients, or what they would have told me, then I’m being hypocritical.”
At one point, she tripped getting into a taxi. Instead of taking that as a sign that she should slow down, she signed up to be a New York City walking-tour guide. When she was forced to go to the hospital, not because she was ready to die, but for pain from constipation, she chose Mount Sinai, avoiding NewYork-Presbyterian because she did not want the humiliation of being treated by her colleagues and students.
She refused to be treated by the renowned palliative care specialists at Mount Sinai whom she knew professionally, but her husband and her best friend, also a doctor, persuaded her to allow a palliative care doctor to oversee her care, with a team of gastroenterologists. She settled on a young doctor she had never met, Betty Lim. After very painful enemas and a colonoscopy, the team of doctors suspected that inoperable tumors were adding to the blockage. Yet Pardi demanded more enemas. “Anything that gave her another chance to get back to what she was doing before,” Lim said. As her body shut down, Pardi began to grow confused and lose consciousness. Robert Pardi, who stayed at her bedside with her mother, said he and his wife had talked in detail about her wishes. He had no qualms about sedating her, about taking away artificial nutrition and hydration, or about letting her kidneys shut down. “We had talked about how in some situations, family members want to bring you to consciousness to say goodbye, but that is not for your benefit,” he said. “God, I would have loved to say goodbye. But that was her wish. She never wanted to open her eyes and see people sad around the bed.”
She was 41 when she died in her husband’s arms on Sept. 6, after two weeks in the hospital, seven years as a doctor and nearly 11 years with breast cancer. Her eyes opened in the moment before she died, her husband said, but she seemed unable to see anything. She died before many of her colleagues could say goodbye, and they grappled with her death. Pecker, her mentor, said he would have reassured her that she was not betraying her principles by refusing to go to hospice. “I think that how you want to live, and what you choose to do is different than what you might recommend to someone else,” he said. She died without ever learning the extent of her disease. Her husband said that she had tumors in both lungs, her liver, the lining of her small intestines, her colon and her bones. Lim attempted, in her own mind, to reconcile Desiree Pardi the palliative care doctor who believed in a peaceful death, with Desiree Pardi the patient who wanted to keep fighting. Lim said she believed that “somewhere deep inside, she knew this was not fixable.” But Pardi “knew exactly how much she was willing to endure,” Lim added. “And she was able to endure a lot.”

Didn’t get a census form? Here’s what you can do to be counted By Tim Doran The Bulletin
When the 2010 census form failed to arrive in the post office box with the rest of her mail, Pauline Stotler, of La Pine, became concerned. After all, census information determines the number of representatives each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and how federal money gets distributed for roads, job training and other programs. Stotler wants Oregon to get

its fair share. “Our state could certainly use some federal funding,” she said. Last month, the U.S. Census Bureau sent 120 million questionnaires to mailboxes across the nation — but not to post office boxes. “We just don’t deliver to post office boxes because you can’t live in a post office box,” said Gary Ollerenshaw, manager of the Bend/Redmond Local Census Office, which covers 18 counties in Central and Eastern Oregon.
“We count where you live or stay. That’s what we do.” The agency still plans to count everyone. It will begin contacting those who did not return the form by mail, for whatever reason, next month. But residents don’t need to wait, Ollerenshaw said. Anyone who didn’t receive a form can stop by one of the 15 Be Counted sites in Crook, Deschutes or Jefferson counties and pick one up.

Wyden forest bill similar to federal vision Heart of bill: restrictions on cutting old growth and building logging roads, more cutting of smaller trees in restoration, thinning projects By Keith Chu The Bulletin
WASHINGTON—The future federal forest policy will be geared toward restoring large swaths of forest, ending the “random acts of restoration” and protecting resources like drinking water, which come from public lands, says Harris Sherman, the White House appointee who oversees the U.S. Forest Service. That vision is very similar to the one Sen. Ron Wyden, DOre., outlined in a bill aimed at breaking the deadlock between environmentalists and the timber industry in Central and Eastern Oregon. While Sherman has expressed concerns about aspects of Wyden’s bill in the past, he said last week that he believes the administration will reach an agreement with Wyden. “There is a huge need to address restoration activities and needs, and his bill focuses on that; it focuses on a landscape scale,” said Sherman, the undersecretary for natural resources and environment at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. “I think it’s a very constructive step in the right direction.” 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. While Sherman would prefer a national approach to forest management rather than a patchwork of bills governing specific states, he said he can set that aside if bills like Wyden’s mesh with the Obama administration’s goals. “Where we have very strong, positive regional or site-specific legislation, such as Senator Wyden’s, absolutely we’re going to roll up our sleeves to work with the senator,” Sherman said. “That’s what we’re doing right now with his staff.” Sherman pointed to two programs, totaling $90 million, in Obama’s 2011 budget request that would allow similar work to that proposed by Wyden. The programs would allow national forests to apply for funding for large-scale restoration projects spanning tens of thousands of acres. “I think without question the Eastern Cascades and six national forests within it will be very competitive for these resources,” Sherman said. Wyden’s bill has attracted support from the timber industry, including Ochoco Lumber President John Shelk, as well as a coalition of environmental groups such as Oregon Wild and Defenders of Wildlife.

A university in Portland hands out MBAs in Bend By Scott Hammers • The Bulletin
I
t was a graduation in miniature at Central Oregon Community College on Saturday, with a class of 10 receiving diplomas from the Concordia University Master of Business Administration
program. Launched in 2004 by the Portland-based school, the Bend MBA program has now graduated 35 people in four graduating classes. Students typically attend classes once a month — a Friday evening and all-day Saturday class — and spend the weeks between classes studying and connecting with their class and instructors online. Students complete their degree in about two years. Tom Daniels, director of the Bend program, said the sluggish economy has not produced a boost in interest and enrollment in the MBA program as has been experienced by COCC and OSU-Cascades, as financial aid is harder to secure for graduate programs. Central Oregon does not offer an abundance of opportunities for graduates to put their degrees to use, Daniels said, but the degree is still a bonus in a relatively poor job market.
“You do not get the increase in pay you might get in the bigger cities, but you get selected and hired quicker,” he said. “And maybe a little bit of a pay increase.” Graduate Dennis Miller, 37, currently works as the information technology operations manager for Bend Research. He said he’s not completely certain what he wants to do with his degree, but is looking for a way to combine his IT skills with his newly acquired knowledge of how business works. Miller’s thesis explored the relationship between IT and business management, and how bad decisions often result from the two camps’ failure to communicate. Graduates in this year’s class included a production manager at a cabinet company, a food service manager, and the office and operations manager at an excavation company. See Graduation / B7
5 nurses are laid off at St. Charles Bend By Scott Hammers The Bulletin
St. Charles Health System, formerly Cascade Healthcare Community, laid off its remaining staff of licensed practical nurses at St. Charles Bend on Friday. The layoff affects five people — the last LPNs working in Bend — said spokeswoman Janette Sherman. An LPN is a class of nurse that requires less education and training than a registered nurse, and, as a result, is given fewer responsibilities and earns a smaller income than a registered nurse. Sherman said a recent decline
in the number of patients at the hospital is the primary factor behind the decision. Over the first two months of the year, the overall number of patients at the system’s hospitals in Bend, Redmond, Madras and Prineville is down by 1.5 percent compared with 2009. Additionally, the number of uninsured patients has climbed from 6.7 to 7.9 percent in the same period. The Bend hospital has attempted to address the costs associated with overstaffing with “call-offs” — sending nurses home for the day when patient numbers dip. See Nurses / B7

Recent storms push snowpack closer to average By Scott Hammers The Bulletin
A wave of late-season snowstorms has brightened prospects for the summer irrigation season, bringing the snowpack in the mountains up to just shy of 70 percent of average. As of Friday morning, measured snowpack in the Upper
Deschutes/Crooked River Basin was at 66 percent of average. Jon Lea, the state snow survey team leader for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, said he expected an incoming storm to push that figure past 70 percent by the end of the weekend. The snowpack typically peaks
around April 1, Lea said, but drier years will often see a spike in snowfall and other precipitation in the early spring. The last year to follow a similar pattern was in 2005, he said. Late-season snow can be more difficult to capture in reservoirs than snow that falls earlier in the year, Lea said.
“What tends to happen later in the year is it starts raining at the lower elevations, not snowing,” he said. “A lot of that snow melts off, because the chances of having a warmer day in the next couple days are higher than it was in December.” See Snowpack / B7

Bend man arrested in domestic dispute A Bend man was arrested early Saturday on suspicion of attempted murder stemming from a domestic dispute in Deschutes River Woods. Deschutes County Sheriff’s deputies, Oregon State Police troopers and Bend Police officers
responded to a report of an assault in progress at 12:27 a.m. at 59881 Cheyenne Road. Their initial investigation suggested Vern Larrance, 57, had fired a shot at his girlfriend, who also told police he had threatened her with multiple firearms and repeatedly assaulted her before she called 911. Larrance is being held at the Deschutes County jail on sus-
picion of attempted murder, attempted fourth-degree assault, strangulation, unlawful use of a weapon, second-degree criminal mischief, reckless endangering, coercion and second-degree assault. His bail has been set at $320,000. His girlfriend’s injuries were not life threatening, and she was treated at the scene.
Though veggies are fewer, Woodburn family still petals wares with tulip fest By Wendy Owen The Oregonian
WOODBURN — Ross Iverson spent decades growing and harvesting broccoli, pole beans and cauliflower on his family’s Woodburn farm for Birds Eye Foods. So, it chafes the traditional farmer a bit every year when his family grows — but doesn’t harvest — the equivalent of 20 football fields of red, yellow, purple, white and orange tulips just for city folks to see and photograph during the annual Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival. “It’s fine,� said Iverson, 85. Then, he adds with a wink, “This year the market is hot (for tulips). People are buying them.� Iverson and three of his six
grown children are the farmers behind the festival, which is celebrating its 25th year. It runs daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. until April 25 at South Meridian Road in Woodburn. The Iverson women came up with the idea of letting people walk through and photograph the tulips, Iverson said. “People come out and create memories,� said daughter Barb Iverson, as she watched a family with toddlers heading toward the tulips. Every year, the Iversons debate how many acres of flowers they’ll give to the festival and how many they’ll harvest for the cut-flower market. This year, they’ll farm 30 acres for the market next to the 20 acres of festival flowers.
They’ll sell at least 5 million flowers through markets such as Trader Joe’s and their Web site, woodenshoe.com, said Barb Iverson, who’s involved in both the farming and the retail side of the business. They also farm nearly 2,500 acres of wheat, grass seed, sweet corn, potatoes, green beans, squash seeds and clover. Since 1950, they’ve grown more than 75 different crops on their land, Barb Iverson said. The tulips are among their long-standing crops, dating to 1974. Ross Iverson said he never imagined the agritourism idea would grow into the operation it is today. More than 100,000 people are expected to visit the festival this year.
Martin Luther King Jr. killed on this day in 1968 The Associated Press Today is Easter Sunday, April 4, the 94th day of 2010. There are 271 days left in the year. TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY On April 4, 1968, civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., 39, was shot to death at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tenn. (James Earl Ray later pleaded guilty to assassinating King, then spent the rest of his life claiming his innocence before dying in prison in 1998.) ON THIS DATE In 1818, Congress decided the flag of the United States would consist of 13 red and white stripes and 20 stars, with a new star to be added for every new state of the Union. In 1841, President William Henry Harrison succumbed to pneumonia one month after his inaugural, becoming the first U.S. chief executive to die in office. In 1850, the city of Los Angeles was incorporated. In 1859, “Dixie� was performed publicly for the first time by Bryant’s Minstrels at Mechanics’ Hall in New York. (The song is popularly attributed to Daniel Decatur Emmett, although his authorship has been called into question.) In 1945, during World War II, U.S. troops on Okinawa encountered the first significant resistance from Japanese forces at the Machinato Line. In 1949, 12 nations, including the United States, signed the North Atlantic Treaty in Washington, D.C. In 1960, the Biblical-era spectacle “Ben-Hur� won 11 Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Elvis Presley recorded “Are You Lonesome Tonight?� in Nashville for RCA Victor. In 1975, more than 130 people, most of them children, were killed when a U.S. Air Force transport plane evacuating Vietnamese orphans crash-landed shortly after takeoff from Saigon. In 1979, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, the deposed prime minister of Pakistan, was hanged after he was convicted of conspiring to murder a political opponent. In 1983, the space shuttle Challenger roared into orbit on its maiden voyage. TEN YEARS AGO In a volatile day on the U.S. stock market, the Nasdaq composite index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average each plunged more than 500 points before reversing course as buyers flooded back into the market. FIVE YEARS AGO Tens of thousands of pilgrims paid their final respects to Pope
T O D AY I N H I S T O R Y John Paul II after his body was carried on a crimson platform to St. Peter’s Basilica.

West Linn mayor’s PC seized over voter guide The Associated Press WEST LINN — An investigation into whether West Linn Mayor Patti Galle misrepresented her education in the state Voters’ Pamphlet led Oregon Department of Justice officials to seize her computer from City Hall. Under Oregon law, knowingly providing false information for the Voters’ Pamphlet is a Class B misdemeanor punishable by up to a $2,500 fine and six months in jail. Three state justice investigators arrived at City Hall on Thursday with a search warrant. They also searched Galle’s house. Galle said in an e-mail Friday to city staff and councilors the investigators were courteous and professional, but she would have gladly turned over any records they wanted. State officials concluded last month that Galle may have broken Oregon law by presenting a certificate from a nonaccredited California school as a legitimate college degree.

O PGE files to close coal plant, save $470M on pollution fixes The Associated Press
Jamie Lusch / The (Medford) Mail Tribune
Rogue Basin Operations Manager Jim Buck, lower right, walks through artificially constructed fish habitat last month upstream of what used to be Elk Creek Dam. “You don’t always need well-developed places,” Buck says. “This is a nice, quiet place where you can enjoy yourself while not next to a road.”
Above Elk Creek Dam, focus is now on the land By Mark Freeman Th e (Medford) Mail Tribune
TRAIL — A chorus of croaking frogs accompanies Jim Buck as he strolls through an artificial forest of logs, downed trees and willow chutes that dot the new-look banks of Elk Creek, where a lake once was envisioned. The new channel would have been underneath more than 100 feet of water by now, had the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed Elk Creek Dam when it was authorized by Congress in 1962. But now the creek snakes through gravel and artificially crafted salmon habitat before zipping through a famous notch cut into the dam 18 months ago as a way for the Corps to end decades of debate over the mothballed dam. “Forever and a day, the whole focus was on the dam — whether to build it, whether to not build it and whether to notch it,” says Buck, the Corps’ Rogue Basin operations manager. “Now, it’s time to focus on the land,” Buck says. The Corps is embarking on a yearlong effort to create a management plan for 2,600 acres of
land originally tapped for Elk Creek Lake, which has been in limbo since lawsuits halted the half-built dam’s construction in 1988. Once completed, the plan will guide how the Corps will mesh low-intensity recreation with the land’s role as habitat for deer, elk, salmon and steelhead. “You don’t always need welldeveloped places,” Buck says. “This is a nice, quiet place where you can enjoy yourself while not next to a road.” The plan also will address what, if anything, to do with the mountains of gravel and sand stacked upstream of the notched dam, and how to knock back starthistle and other noxious weeds expected to sprout on both sides of what remains of the dam, Buck says. The effort likely will include some inventories to look at the various flora and fauna that call the area home, including western pond turtles, threatened coho salmon, wood ducks, and other critters wandering in and out of the lowland Elk Creek drainage about a mile upstream of its confluence with the Rogue River. “There are probably some things we don’t even know will
come up, since everything’s been so dam-centric instead of landcentric,” Buck says. The land is open to public use, with access through separate gates above and below the defunct dam. Vehicles are banned Nov. 15 through April 30 as part of a seasonal road closure designed to improve winter range for blacktailed deer. In season, the area is visited by hikers and berry pickers, hunters, mountain bicyclists and others, Buck says. “I don’t expect that to change much,” Buck says. What has changed, however, is the moonscape that was intended to be the reservoir’s bottom. Last year, contractors rebuilt the creek channel through the reservoir zone and created a large off-channel area complete with strategically placed trees and logs buried upright in the gravel to look like a woody Stonehenge. Two small, seasonal tributaries immediately downstream and upstream of the dam also received major face-lifts, all meant to create spawning and rearing habitat for wild coho salmon and steelhead that spawn in the Elk Creek basin.
Free after 4 years in Mexican prison, former Oregon woman angry at U.S. The Associated Press PORTLAND — A former Oregon woman who spent four years in a Mexican prison says she had to win her own release with no help from state or federal officials. Rebecca Roth told The Oregonian she is angry with the U.S. Consulate in Mexico, along with
state and federal officials, because nobody offered assistance trying to overturn what she said was a wrongful conviction. Roth moved from Lake Oswego to Puerto Vallarta in Mexico to overcome problems with asthma and opened a dress shop. She met a Canadian man, Aly Waage, who claimed to be a bil-
lionaire but actually was running a Ponzi scheme that ended up with a 2005 conviction. Roth was arrested in 2006 when Mexican authorities claimed she was linked to the scheme. But she won her release this week after teaching herself about Mexican law and winning an appeal to a judge.

PORTLAND — Portland General Electric has filed to close the only coal-fired plant in Oregon ahead of schedule to save $470 million on pollution controls. The utility said Friday it would close the plant near Boardman by 2020 instead of 2040 because it’s cheaper than installing upgrades. The Boardman plant supplies 15 percent of the power provided by PGE, Oregon’s largest electric utility. But it is the largest single source of greenhouse gases in the state, and creates smog and haze that hamper visibility from Mount Hood to the Columbia River Gorge to Hells Canyon. “We absolutely think this is a huge win for the environment,” said Dave Robertson, PGE’s vice president of public policy. “We’re really taking the higher, more difficult road on this.” But environmental groups, including the Sierra Club and Friends of the Columbia Gorge, said the utility can close the plant even sooner without driving up rates. “PGE has operated that plant, we believe, outside the law for 30 years, and forced these haze- and smog-causing emissions,” said Michael Lang, the conservation director for Friends of the Columbia Gorge. “They’re basically asking for another pass.”
Under PGE’s proposal to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, the utility would install $33 million of controls in 2011 to cut Boardman’s nitrogen oxide emissions by half. But it would not make another $470 million worth of upgrades in 2014 and 2017 that would reduce sulfur dioxide emissions by 80 percent, and
further reduce nitrogen oxide pollution. PGE said it would buy lower-sulfur coal to reduce pollution in the meantime, and cut its permitted emission level by half. The plan requires approval from the DEQ, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Oregon Public Utility Commission.

Toddler slips mom, eats $25 in chocolate in ’85 100 YEARS AGO For the week ending April 3, 1910 TELLS STORY OF BIG CANYON Under the title “Homeseekers to Sweep up Deschutes Canyon,” G.P. Putnam has an extensive illustrated article in last Sunday’s Oregonian. The story describes the construction work in the canyon as encountered by the author on a recent trip through its entire length, and dwells particularly upon the many unique scenic attractions of this “narrow portal to Oregon’s Inland Empire,” which is aptly compared with Colorado’s Grand Canyon. The writer is lavish in his praise of the beauty of the “Grand Canyon of the Northwest,” saying, in part: “No more interesting and beautifully impressive stretch of scenery exists in the Northwest than that embraced in the one hundred-odd miles of the canyon of the Deschutes. “The Deschutes Canyon is the sole northerly gateway to the great Central Oregon region, whose development in the next few years promises to outdo anything ever witnessed in Oregon or any of its sister states. In five years Oregon’s population, exclusive of that of Portland and the several cities of the Willamette Valley, bids fair to be doubled by the influx of homemakers and city builders whose advance wave is now sweeping into the fertile Deschutes Valley.” Says the article in closing: “As a ‘drawing card’ for passenger traffic and an addition to Oregon’s long list of natural assets, this, the most beautiful and interesting canyon in the Northwest, will be unsurpassed. “Before another summer has drawn to a close, the recreation seekers of the Willamette Valley and Oregon’s Eastern visitors will be swarming into the pleasure land of the beautiful Bend country, and all the unsurpassed regions of the upper Deschutes, on their way thither passing through the portals of this wonderful Deschutes canyon, where last year was nothing but unbroken solitude, and today the rush of 9,000 men hastening to completion two great railroads into the interior.” BEND TEAM DEFEATED Last Sunday Redmond won the first ballgame of 1910 from the Bend team 13 to 5. Lack of practice, ragged playing, the absence of star men and above all, the fact that the Redmond boys put up a class article of ball accounted for the defeat. Manager Edwards, while admitting the home team made a poor showing proportionately to its possibilities, is confident that the lesson learned will get everyone out for practice hereafter.
75 YEARS AGO For the week ending April 3, 1935 CLYDE AND LELA MUST REMAIN BELOW BRIDGE The Mirror Pond’s pugnacious swans, “Clyde” and “Lela,” are to be placed in a miniature refuge in the power dam forebay immediately below the Newport Avenue bridge, it was announced today, when means of isolating the battling birds from young swans that are to be placed on the Mirror Pond were approved. Work on a screen under the bridge, to keep the parental swans from returning upstream, was to be started this afternoon. The two swans will be herded by boat into this enclosure. Steps to remove the two old swans from the Mirror Pond were taken after the Kiwanis trapped four of the old orchard swans with the intention of placing these birds in the scenic pond upstream. It was then decided that “Clyde” and “Lela” would drive the younger birds out of the pond, so the deportation of the old birds was approved. The two old swans have started a nest in the “island” below the Tumalo avenue bridge. CLYDE AND LELA KEEP THEIR OLD HOMESTEAD Recognizing that family rights
Y E S T E R D AY should be given priority over any further attempt to enhance the beauty of Bend’s Mirror Pond by bringing in young swans, the Kiwanis Club today announced that “Clyde” and “Lela” will not be disturbed. The two parental swans, it has developed, have established their spring home at their usual place in the tules below the Tumalo bridge, and “Lela” is now nesting on eggs from which will emerge another brood of cygnets. With the family rights of “Clyde” and “Lela” now acknowledged, the Kiwanians are still at a loss as to what to do with the four young swans. It appears that these birds will be placed in the power dam forebay. However, no promise is being made that the birds will remain there. CROSS BETWEEN PLANE AND AUTO IS LATEST DEVICE The Department of Commerce today awarded a contract for the building of a combination automobile and airplane. It will be similar to the usual autogiro but will have wings that fold back so that the owner can keep it in a garage, and taxi back and forth from a flying field. John H. Geisse, chief of the aeronautics section of the bureau, said the new device would eliminate many things that keep the average man from flying.
50 YEARS AGO For the week ending April 3, 1960 THAT NOSY NOSE-COUNTER, THE CENSUS TAKER, WILL BE CALLING ON YOU Starting on Friday, Bend residents will get to take part in the great national census of 1960. You’ll have to open your doors to the nosiest nose-counters you ever saw. For some, the census might be appropriately called “Truth or Consequences,” although there are seldom “consequences.” But you must answer. If you don’t, you are courting 60 days in jail and a $100 fine. When the big count is over, Bend is expected to find it does have some 13,400 residents, as the sign at the north edge of town says. In past years, the Census Bureau has been criticized because of certain questions. The most controversial dealt with personal income, which caused quite a stir in 1940. But by now folks are used to it. Another problem dealt with women’s ages. This year, the nose-counters won’t ask women their ages. They’ll simply ask for date of birth. This is a sneaky way to get the goods, but it’s also harder to fib when specific dates are sought. Aside from the routine, the census has its interesting sidelights. In past years, enumerators have had to deliver babies, save lives and put out fires. And on certain nights in April, these workers will probably prove a source of embarrassment to couples whose names really aren’t Jones, as they canvass the nation’s hotels and motels. It will be a big job across the nation, and in Bend, You can help speed it up by welcoming that nosy nose-counter who comes to your door. BABY MISSES NOSE COUNT BY 7 MINUTES The 1960 census started in Central Oregon without incident, but about seven minutes too early for a baby born in Bend to get counted. That baby, son of Mr. and Mrs. Archer Van De Hey, of Sisters, was born at the St. Charles Memorial Hospital at 12:09 this morning. As a result, the baby will not officially be a part of America’s population until 1970. Census regulations say that babies born two minutes after midnight last night must not be included in the 1960 tabulation. However, anyone who died after
Arts & Entertainment Every Friday In
12:01 today will be considered part of the population for the next decade.
25 YEARS AGO For the week ending April 3, 1985 BEND STORE WILL CLOSE ON JUNE 26 Montgomery Ward will close its Bend catalog store and automotive center on June 26, a company manager announced today. Twelve employees will be affected by the closure of the store at 1628 N.E. Third Street, said Gene L. Lambert, catalog manager for the national company’s Northwest district. Other catalog stores in the Northwest and throughout the nation also will be closed soon, but Lambert declined to say how many. The catalog store has been at its present location since 1972, but has been in Bend since the mid-1930s and is one of Montgomery Ward’s “oldest catalog stores operating west of the Mississippi River,” Lambert said. He was in Bend this morning to inform employees of the closure. RACHAEL MEETS, EATS CHOCOLATE BUNNIES A 3-year-old girl spent two blissful hours in a supermarket devouring $25 worth of chocolate candy after she was separated from her mother while shopping. Rachael Wilson wandered away from her mother in a supermarket, hid beneath a store shelf and spent two hours eating chocolate bunnies. She was found by a cashier, but not before she munched $25 worth of chocolate.

Triathlete, 73, shares tips for turning back the clock By David Whiting The Orange County Register
SANTA ANA, Calif. — When the world’s grande dame of Ironman triathlon trains, her movements are so fluid, so strong, you can’t help but wonder about this 73-year-old. In the last two decades, Mickie Shapiro has packed in more than 20 Ironman races, considered by many to be the toughest races on the planet. Think 2.4-mile open water swim, 112-mile bike race and a full marathon, 26.2 miles — all on the same day. If you were meeting Shapiro for the first time, you might think she was super human. But Shapiro, 5-foot-3, says she has osteoporosis, thyroid problems and deformed feet. She wears extra-large running shoes and sometimes takes as long as five minutes in the morning before she can place one foot in front of the other. Regardless, Shapiro is redefining what it means to age. So, how can the rest of us turn back the clock?
How does she do it? The answer may be more about mind than body. Did I mention Shapiro knows her podiatrist’s phone number by heart? “I see myself as a normal person,” the practicing therapist told me during a recent visit to her home, which is decorated with reminders of her four children, the sport she loves and pop art. Her latest piece? A present from all of her children. It is a brightly painted woodwork of a woman holding up a banner of a swimmer, a cyclist and a runner. The words “Love, courage, dedication, hope, passion” swirl at the woman’s feet. They are words that Shapiro lives by and, perhaps, they are words that can build a bridge between the rest of us and someone as active as Shapiro. Like many women of her generation, Shapiro grew up inside a fence of expectations.
Leonard Ortiz / The Orange County Register
Mickie Shapiro, 73, prepares for a bike ride through her neighborhood earlier this year in Costa Mesa, Calif. Shapiro has competed in more than 20 Ironman races in the past two decades. She was expected to play safe games like “Red Rover,” go to college, meet a man, devote her life to raising children and, later in life, play with her grandchildren. It was Shapiro’s daughter, Spencer, who got her off the couch and into running. The year was 1978, and her daughter became enthralled with running after seeing a kids’ race. Like many moms of yesterday and today, Shapiro became the shuttle driver. Then one day, waiting for a Pageant of the Masters performance in Laguna Beach, Calif., Spencer asked to squeeze in a run. Shapiro, ever the good mom, ran along. Shapiro discovered that rather than feeling tired and hurt after the run, she felt great — alive in a way she hadn’t felt before. When Shapiro hit her 40s, she had two kids in college and two more soon to follow. She decided
to use her extra time to earn a master’s degree in therapy, dance therapy to be exact. She did that. Then she got a second master’s, this one in guidance counseling. Through it all, Shapiro kept running. In 1981, she was fast enough to qualify to run the Boston Marathon. It made her feel powerful, independent. In 1982, Shapiro watched on TV as Julie Moss crawled across the Ironman finish line in Hawaii. Like thousands of others, Shapiro was galvanized. Anybody can ride a bike, she figured. And she already knew how to swim. “I’m going to do a triathlon,” she promised herself. Since that day, Shapiro has won eight Ironman races in her age group, come in second three times in her age group in the world championships and won the half-Ironman world championships twice.

Harriet Shetler helped found mental illness organization By Douglas Martin New York Times News Service
Burton Joseph fought 1st Amendment legal battles New York Times News Service Burton Joseph, a civil liberties lawyer in Chicago who took on tough First Amendment causes, notably the right of Nazis to march through Skokie, a Chicago suburb with a large Jewish population, died Wednesday at his home in San Francisco. He was 79 and maintained his primary residence in Evanston, Ill. The cause was brain cancer, his daughter Jody said. Joseph developed an appetite for free-speech cases in the early 1960s while arguing the right of a client in Lake County, Ill., to sell Henry Miller’s novel “Tropic of Cancer.” After a series of cases in state courts, the Supreme Court ruled in 1964 that the book could not be banned. “I got hooked,” Joseph once told an interviewer. “I became a bleeding-heart, kneejerk First Amendment lawyer. And I’ve never been sorry.” While a partner in the Chicago law firm that became Joseph, Lichtenstein & Levinson, he did pro bono work for the Illinois branch of the American Civil Liberties Union. At the time, the branch was small, but in the 45 years he spent working with it, the office grew to 25 employees.
Harriet Shetler, whose experience as the mother of a son with schizophrenia led her to help start a national organization to address mental health needs, died Tuesday in Madison, Wis. She was 92. The cause was a perforated bowel, said her daughter Jane S. Ross. Today, the organization Shetler helped start, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, has affiliates in every state and more than 1,100 communities. It offers support to the mentally ill and people living with them; promotes research and education on mental illness; and lobbies governments on mental health concerns. Its beginnings go back to the anxiety Shetler felt after her son Charles was identified as schizophrenic. A friend at the Congregational church she attended put her in touch with another church member, Beverly Young, who faced similar challenges with her own schizophrenic son. The two women met for lunch in 1977 and had instant rapport, Young said Thursday in an interview. At a second lunch, the women, both active in civic and charitable activities, decided to assemble people with similar concerns. In April 1977, about 13 people met at a nightclub in Madison. Shetler suggested a name, Alliance for the Mentally Ill, partly because its acronym meant “friend” in French. (The name was later changed slightly to broaden its scope.) Within six months, 75 people had joined.
Dr. Roberts’ pioneer PC helped inspire Microsoft By Steve Lohr New York Times News Service
Not many people in the computer world remembered H. Edward Roberts, not after he walked away from the industry more than three decades ago to become a country doctor in Georgia. Bill Gates remembered him, though. As Roberts lay dying last week in a hospital in Macon, Ga., suffering from severe pneumonia, Gates flew to be at his bedside. Gates knew what many had forgotten: that Roberts had made an early and enduring contribution to modern computing. He created the MITS Altair, the first inexpensive general-purpose microcomputer, a device that could be programmed to do all manner of tasks. For that achievement, some historians say Roberts deserves to be recognized as the inventor of the personal computer. For Gates, the connection to Roberts was also personal. It was writing software for the MITS Altair that gave Gates, a student at Harvard at the time, and his Microsoft partner, Paul Allen, their start. Later, they moved to Albuquerque, where Roberts had set up shop. Roberts died Thursday at the Medical Center of Middle Georgia, his son Martin said. He was 68. When the Altair was introduced in the mid-1970s, personal computers — or then called microcomputers — were mainly intriguing electronic gadgets for hobbyists, the sort of people who tinkered with ham radio kits. Roberts, it seems, was a classic hobbyist entrepreneur. He left his mark on computing, built a nice little business, sold it and moved on — well before personal computers moved into the mainstream of business and society. Gates, as history proved, had far larger ambitions. Over the years, there was some lingering animosity between the two men, and Roberts pointedly kept his distance from industry events — like the 20th anniversary celebration in Silicon Valley of the introduction of the IBM PC in 1981, which signaled the corporate endorsement of PCs. But in recent months, after learning that Roberts was ill, Gates made a point of reaching out to his former boss and customer. Gates sent Roberts a letter last December and followed up with phone calls, another son, Dr. John David Roberts, said. Eight days ago, Gates visited the elder Roberts at his bedside in Macon. “Any past problems between those two were long since forgotten,” said John David Roberts, who had accompanied Gates to the hospital. He added that Allen, the other Microsoft founder, had also called the elder Roberts frequently in recent months.
‘Take a chance’ On his Web site, Gates and Allen posted a joint statement, saying they were saddened by the death of “our friend and early mentor.” “Ed was willing to take a chance on us — two young guys interested in computers long before they were commonplace — and we have always been grateful to him,” the statement said. When the small MITS Altair appeared on the January 1975 cover of Popular Electronics, Gates and Allen plunged into writing a version of the BASIC programming language that could run on the machine. Gates dropped out of Harvard, and Allen left his job at Honeywell in Boston. The product they created for Roberts’ machine, Microsoft Basic, was the beginning of what would become the world’s largest software company and would make its founders billionaires many times over. MITS was the kingpin of the fledgling personal computer business only briefly. In 1977, Roberts sold his company. He walked away a millionaire. But as a part of the sale, he agreed not to design computers for five years, an eternity in computing. It was a condition that Roberts, looking for a change, accepted.
DC Comics editor and artist Dick Giordano dies at 77 By George Gene Gustines New York Times News Service

Dr. H. Edward Roberts rests his arms on an Altair computer in Cochran, Ga., in 1997. Roberts, the developer of that early personal computer — which helped inspire Bill Gates and Paul Allen to found Microsoft — died Thursday in Georgia. He was 68. He first invested in farmland in Georgia. After a few years, he switched course and decided to revive a childhood dream of becoming a physician, earning his medical degree in 1986 from Mercer University in Macon. He became a general practitioner in Cochran, 35 miles northwest of the university. In Albuquerque, Roberts, a burly, 6-foot-4 former Air Force officer, often clashed with Gates, the skinny college dropout. Gates was “a very bright kid, but he was a constant headache at MITS,” Roberts said in an interview with The New York Times at his office in 2001. “You couldn’t reason with him,” he added. “He did things his way or not at all.” His former MITS colleagues recalled that Roberts could be hardheaded as well. “Unlike the rest of us, Bill never backed down from Ed Roberts face-toface,” David Bunnell, a former MITS employee, said in 2001. “When they disagreed, sparks flew.” Over the years, people have credited others with inventing the personal computer, including the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, Apple and IBM. But Paul Ceruzzi, a technology historian at the Smithsonian Institution, wrote in “A History of Modern Computing” (MIT Press, 1998) that “H. Edward Roberts, the Altair’s designer, deserves credit as the inventor of the personal computer.” Ceruzzi noted the “utter improbability and unpredictability” of having one of the most significant inventions of the 20th century come to life from such a seemingly obscure origin. “But Albuquerque it was,” Ceruzzi wrote, “for it was only at MITS that the technical and social components of personal computing converged.”
‘On to the next thing’ H. Edward Roberts was born in Miami on Sept. 13, 1941. His father, Henry Melvin Roberts, ran a household appliance repair service, and his mother, Edna Wilcher Roberts, was a nurse. As a young man, he wanted to be a doctor and, in fact, became intrigued by electronics working with doctors at the University of Miami who were doing experimental heart surgery. He built the electronics for a heart-lung
machine. “That’s how I got into it,” Roberts recalled in 2001. So he abandoned his intended field and majored in electrical engineering at Oklahoma State University. Then, he worked on a room-size IBM computer. But the power of computing, Roberts recalled, “opened up a whole new world. And I began thinking, ‘What if you gave everyone a computer?’” In addition to his sons Martin, of Glenwood, Ga., and John David, of Eastman, Ga., Roberts is survived by his mother, Edna Wilcher Roberts, of Dublin, Ga.; his wife, Rosa Roberts, of Cochran; his sons Edward, of Atlanta, and Melvin and Clark, both of Athens, Ga.; his daughter, Dawn Roberts, of Warner Robins, Ga.; three grandchildren and one great-grandchild. His previous two marriages, to Donna Mauldin Roberts and Joan Roberts, ended in divorce. His sons said Roberts never gave up his love for making things, for tinkering and invention. He was an accomplished woodworker, making furniture for his household, family and friends. He made a Star Warsstyle light saber for a neighbor’s son, using light-emitting diodes. And several years ago, he designed his own electronic medical records software, though he never tried to market it, his son Dr. Roberts said. “Once he figured something out,” he added, “he was on to the next thing.”
Dick Giordano, a comic book artist and former executive editor at DC Comics who helped revive long-standing comic book characters and reimagine them for new audiences, died Saturday at the Memorial Medical Center in Daytona Beach. He was 77 and lived in Palm Coast, Fla. The cause was complications of treatment for leukemia, Pat Bastienne, a longtime friend and colleague, said in an e-mail message. Giordano worked in the comic book industry for more than 40 years. As an editor at DC, he oversaw projects that signaled a new level of maturity in the medium, including “The Dark Knight Returns,” about an aging Batman, and “Watchmen,” about heroes in a world on the brink of nuclear war. During his tenure, DC Comics also introduced its first graphic novel collections, a format that has grown increasingly popular and profitable. His skills as an inker — the artist who interprets the penciled page — influenced a generation of comic book creators. One of Giordano’s first jobs was in 1952 at Charlton Comics, where he began as a freelance artist, illustrated many covers and worked his way up to editor-in-chief. At Charlton, he helped come up with a line of action heroes, including Blue Beetle, the Question and the Peacemaker, that would later be purchased by DC Comics and become the basis for the characters in “Watchmen,” which was adapted into a feature film last year. In 1967, Giordano moved to DC Comics, where he worked as an artist and an editor. Giordano left the company in 1971 and co-founded, with the artist Neal Adams, Continuity Associates, which handled commercial artwork and supplied illustrations to comic book publishers. He returned to DC Comics in 1980 and eventually became vice president/executive editor, a title he retained until 1993. During that period, he worked with the artists George Perez and John Byrne on, respectively, “Crisis on Infinite Earths,” an epic story conceived to simplify the accumulated histories of the DC heroes, and on “The Man of Steel,” which restarted the Superman myth for a new generation of fans. As an editor, Giordano uniformly credited writers and artists on the covers, the first such policy by a major comic book publisher, Paul Levitz, the president and publisher of DC Comics from 2002 to 2009, wrote in an e-mail message.

Oregon man’s aunt jailed in prescription drug mix-up Th e Associated Press PORTLAND — An Oregon woman was briefly jailed when bad handwriting helped cause a mix-up over a prescription she was trying to fill for a teenage nephew suffering from an infected tooth. Catherine Hoagland, of Portland, was jailed for several hours earlier this week when police were called because a pharmacist
believed the prescription for painkillers was faked. Officials at Providence Portland Medical Center, where Hoagland’s 19-year-old nephew was treated, say the signature of the nurse practitioner was not legible, she mixed up a federal registration number for narcotics, and the prescription was not immediately logged into the patient’s record.

Nurses Continued from B1 Call-offs have been markedly more common this winter than in the past, Alison Hamway of the Oregon Nurses Association told The Bulletin last month. Jim Diegel, the CEO of St. Charles Health System, said on Saturday the move will not affect patient care. Diegel said patient numbers at St. Charles Bend have been below 50 percent of the hospital’s capacity many times in recent months. By trimming the overall nursing staff, the hospital should be able to reduce the use of calloffs on slow days, he said, while maintaining the same ratios of nurses to patients. Diegel said the LPNs who were laid off were “good nurses,” but their more limited training made the positions an obvious target when the hospital began looking at reducing staff. “I don’t want to underplay the value of these caregivers or what

that much logging, but it doesn’t mean that at all. “It has to do with doing some real restoration that would be science-guided by a designated real science panel.” To date, the administration has taken small steps toward breaking the deadlock on forest restoration, said Jim Furnish, a forest policy consultant and former top Forest Service official, based near Washington, D.C. The agency’s decision to begin rewriting the rules for planning how federal forests are managed is one positive sign, Furnish said. “I guess the word I would use is encouraged,” Furnish said. “I haven’t seen any real earthshaking steps yet.” Sherman said he agrees with Wyden that a viable timber industry is needed to perform the restoration work that conservationists want to see. And he said that current timber harvest targets are sufficient to maintain a healthy industry. That’s something the Oregon timber industry has sharply disputed. In testimony before the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources in March, Ochoco Lumber’s Shelk said the industry won’t survive under the existing system. “In order to survive, Oregon’s mills need a predictable supply of raw material from Oregon’s federal lands,” Shelk said. “To produce lumber, we need saw logs — logs large enough to make into boards.”
Continued from B1 Lea said current forecasts are calling for a damp April, and a warmer and drier May and June. If the forecast holds, irrigators will go into the growing season in kind of a “gray area,” he said. Water supplies probably won’t be so tight as to require rationing, but irrigation districts may still have to plan for possible conservation measures. The snowpack figures represent an average of measurements taken at different measuring stations, and are slightly skewed by limited snow at lower elevations. Ryan Miebach, head of the snow survey in Central Oregon, said in an e-mail that measurements at Hungry Flat, located at around 4,400 feet on the Cascade Lakes Highway, show the snowpack is at just 14 percent of average, while measurements near Mount Bachelor — located at 6,300 feet — are 7 to 13 percent
above the historical average. Deschutes River Watermaster Kyle Gorman said the region is in much better shape than last Sunday, when the basinwide average was at only 57 percent. Gorman said recent precipitation has moistened soils at lower-elevation farmlands, allowing a slight delay to the beginning of the irrigation season. Irrigation season officially began on April 1, but water is not scheduled to begin flowing in Central Oregon canals for another week or two, he said. Despite the recent snow and rain, river flows are likely to be lower than normal this summer, Gorman said, forcing more extensive use of water from storage reservoirs. As a result, the water level at popular recreation sites like Crane Prairie, Wickiup and Prineville reservoirs is likely to be much lower than normal by late summer.

Continued from B1 But the Oregon chapter of the Sierra Club has been persistently critical of Wyden’s effort. Asante Riverwind, the club’s Eastern Oregon representative, on Friday called the bill “a huge mistake.” Riverwind said the measure, which mandates an average of 100,000 acres of restoration projects in the first three years after its passage, would create more harm than legitimate restoration. “When you’re bringing logging equipment throughout the landscape, the natural serenity is disrupted on a massive scale,” Riverwind said. “To date, we’ve seen very few areas that evidence” large-scale restoration. Still, the club’s Oregon Conservation Director, Ivan Maluski, said his group has been negotiating with Wyden’s staff to address some of its concerns. “At the end of day, I think our concerns are at least being taken seriously by Senator Wyden,” Maluski said. Tim Lillebo, the Bend-based Eastern Oregon representative of Oregon Wild, said many of the Sierra Club’s concerns are misplaced. The restoration projects mandated in Wyden’s bill aren’t required to be logging or thinning projects, Lillebo said. As it’s written, the legislation calls for the projects to be “predominately” mechanical thinning. “It’s not saying there’s going to be 100,000 acres of logging,” Lillebo said. “I think people … automatically just jump to the conclusion there’s going to be
the mail. But the follow-up notice jogged his memory. In the La Pine area, many people have to use post office boxes, Stotler said. The U.S. Postal Service will deliver to a mailbox placed out on a main road in some places. But vandals often break into those boxes and sometimes scatter the contents along the road, she said. Ollerenshaw, manager of the Bend/Redmond census office, said many who live in the Sisters, Black Butte Ranch and Warm Springs areas also do not get mail delivery. Neither do residents of Hines, he said. Starting May 1, the Census Bureau will begin making contact with households that did not return the questionnaire by mail, including those who have post office boxes. The agency will call first, but if census workers fail to reach residents by telephone, a census taker will head to the home. “If you don’t have what you call a city-style mailing address, we deliver the form in person,” Ollerenshaw said.
Continued from B1 Miller said the wide range of backgrounds students brought to the program added a lot to his experience. “Really what I learned the most was from the discussions and interactions we had,” he
said. “The class material is just starter material.” Graduate Kevin Renk, 34, said he was putting 20 hours of work a week into his courses, and is now starting to rediscover his hobbies and his family. Renk, too, said he’s not certain what he’ll do with his degree, but viewed the MBA program as the “next step” in his busi-

ness education, following management jobs at BendBroadband and a physician’s office. Renk said he’s contemplating continuing his education with Concordia in a program that would send him overseas this summer to work as a temporary consultant for Northwest businesses with operations in China. Spending the last two years working closely with the rest of the graduating class has taught him to look at how business works in a much more scientific way, Renk said. “It’s been challenging, but it’s been really rewarding at the same time, just because of the group we’ve had,” he said.

Continued from B1 Generally, that will eliminate the need to send a census taker to the house. “(The sooner) they get the form back ... the sooner they get taken off the list,” he said. Returning the form by mail also saves the government money. To send a census taker to a home costs $57. Mailing the form costs 42 cents. For the 2010 census, the bureau launched a $326 million marketing campaign to increase the rate of people who participate by mail. Each percentage point increase in the rate saves the federal government $85 million, bureau officials have said. On Friday, the rate for both Oregon and the nation reached 56 percent, according to the agency’s Web site. In Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties, the return rate was 58 percent, 54 percent and 47 percent, respectively. The Census Bureau’s campaign worked for Jim Thatcher, the Bend resident said last week. With income taxes and the other chores of daily life, Thatcher said he delayed getting the form in
they did for us, but it’s a category of nursing you just don’t see very much anymore,” he said. Paul Goldberg, assistant executive director of the Oregon Nurses Association, said nursing staffs around Oregon have been pinched by the declining number of patients. “Various hospitals throughout the state are experiencing lower patient volumes because of the economic crisis,” he said. “As unemployment is higher, people do less elective surgeries, and they also lose their health insurance, and they’re not coming into the hospital. But that’s going to be a temporary dip in the demand for inpatient acute services, I think.” The nursing profession is still expected to grow in the future, Goldberg said, driven by the aging of the baby boom generation and expanded access to health insurance due to the recently passed health care reform bill.

In nuclear heartland, fate of ICBMs causes anxiety By Matt Volz Th e Associated Press
JUDITH GAP, Mont. — Here in America’s nuclear heartland, where underground missile silos dot the landscape, a proposed U.S.-Russia treaty to reduce nuclear weapons is nothing short of alarming. The military workers who maintain those missiles support cities as large as Great Falls, where 40 percent of the economy depends upon Malmstrom Air Force Base, and businesses as small as the Judith Gap Mercantile, where passing airmen buy milkshakes by the dozen. If they follow the missiles out of town, the economies here could be crippled. The fate of the 450 intercontinental ballistic missiles around Malmstrom, F.E. Warren Air Force Base near Cheyenne, Wyo., and Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota is not yet clear, but politicians and community leaders are ready to fight to keep them. Even if it means not cutting nuclear weapons.

“I would keep Malmstrom at full strength, regardless,” Great Falls Mayor Michael Winters said. “Each and every facet of our economy has something to do with Malmstrom.” The proposed treaty would require the U.S. and Russia to reduce their nuclear warheads over the next seven years by 30 percent, to 1,550 from a previous maximum of 2,200. But it doesn’t say where those cuts would occur. Malmstrom’s 341st Missile Wing employs about 4,000 military personnel and civilians to manage its 150 ICBMs. One maintenance duty is to extend the life of aging Minuteman III missiles — the last of which were produced in 1978 — and the Air Force has committed nearly $6.2 billion to such life-extension programs, according to Malmstrom’s Web site. Airmen who service and maintain the missiles pass daily through Judith Gap, a town of about 150 in the center of Montana.
The Judith Gap Mercantile, which boasts that its milkshakes are famous worldwide, takes pride in serving the military men and women who make up an estimated 70 percent of its business. A shrine is dedicated to them. Models of missiles, plaques of appreciation and shoulder patches from various military units cover a wall. “They like to play a little game with us,” said Jancy Kowalski, who makes the milkshakes. “They’ll come in and say, ‘We need 15 milkshakes,’ and we’ve got like 10 minutes to close. They love to do that to us.” Neither Kowalski nor the few customers in the store Tuesday ventured a guess what losing the military trade would do, but longtime resident Andrew Arneson said it would devastate a farming and ranching community already hurt by the recession. “You’ll find more people going out of business, selling their farms. They can’t take it. Everything’s going downhill,” he said.

ROSEBURG — There’s wildlife — and there’s not-so-wild life. A couple of days in the Central Umpqua Valley, on the Interstate 5 corridor an hour’s drive south of Eugene, gives plenty of opportunity for both. Don’t be swayed by your likely first im-

seat on the east bank of the South Umpqua River. Although the town of 20,000 resi-
dents has a history dating back to the 1850s, its downtown sector is quiet indeed, seemingly mired in economic doldrums. It’s almost as if nothing exciting has happened here since “The Blast,” a devastating explosion that leveled eight city blocks and killed 14 people more than 60 years ago. Folks still talk about it.

A whale — and elephant — of a tale at Jefferson County Read event By David Jasper The Bulletin

Bend author Diane Hammond will speak at Jefferson County Library Annex on April 16-17 as part of the Jefferson County Community Read program.
Elephants, whales and chimps will be part of the fun at this year’s Jefferson County Community Read program to be held April 16 and 17 in Madras. Much like Deschutes County’s own community reading event, Jefferson County Library picks a book of its own for citizens to read and rally around. This year, the event’s seventh, the library has gone with an author close to home, Bend’s own Diane Hammond, focusing on her 2008 novel “Hannah’s Dream,” about an elephant and her aging keeper at a rundown zoo in Washington state. According to Ruth Ann Hopps, a former Madras High School librarian who chairs the community read, organizers of the event have had their eye on Hammond after a Bulletin article about her two years ago. “It was kind of fun this time, because we actually got to meet the au-

thor ahead of time, which hasn’t been the case very often,” Hopps says. When Hammond lived at the coast, she was a spokesperson for Keiko the killer whale, and, says Hopps, “she told us some fascinating stories about Keiko.” Tying together the fictional Hannah and a whale that was famous for a time in the ’90s was somewhat difficult, she says. “We were trying to figure out how we could talk about elephants and killer whales.” See Jefferson / C6

Correction In a story headlined “Suburban serendipity,” which appeared Sunday, March 7, on Page C1, incorrect information was included about which university is the oldest in the Northwest. Pacific University was the first institution to be chartered by the Oregon territorial legislature, but Willamette University was founded seven years earlier in 1842. The Bulletin regrets the error.

Daughter fears elderly mom is menace behind the wheel Dear Abby: My mother just turned 80, and her driving is getting bad. I have spoken to her about my concerns, and she says she’ll “think about” stopping. Then the next day, she’s off driving somewhere. I live 25 miles away. I offered to move to her apartment complex and do her driving, but until I can do that she won’t stop. Mom has already hit a city bus, turned into oncoming traffic and narrowly missed a pedestrian. When she put in for a change of address for her driver’s license, they noticed it was time to renew it and did so without a test. I requested they send her a “come in and test” letter, but so far there has been no response. What can I do before she kills someone or herself? — Philadelphia Daughter Dear Daughter: Contact your mother’s physician and tell him/her what you have told me. Her doctor should write a letter to the Department of Motor Vehicles regarding her history of near misses. It appears your concerns are justified. She should be given a driver’s test and an eye test. Dear Abby: My 15-year-old stepson says he is embarrassed by the constant hand-holding in public his mother and I enjoy. He also doesn’t like that we always share a quick kiss after saying grace before meals, even in restaurants. He says that none of his friends’ parents do it, and he thinks it’s “weird.” His mother and I see no need to change and feel he will get over his embarrassment in time. We feel our displays of affection are appropriate and strengthen our relationship. I would also think that seeing us so well-bonded would be reassuring to him and his 14-yearold brother. Neither boy was close to his father — in fact, they both hate to visit him — so I don’t think it’s an
DEAR ABBY issue of the boy hoping his parents will get back together. Any thoughts on this? — Stepdad In Pennsylvania Dear Stepdad: If your marriage to their mother is relatively recent, your displays of affection may make her sons uncomfortable. Also, both boys have reached an age when parents ARE just plain “embarrassing.” In the interests of family harmony — until they grow out of it — please consider refraining from the quick kisses when you’re out in public. Dear Abby: My 60th birthday is approaching, and my children and I are planning a trip. My wish is to celebrate with just my two children — not their spouses. Is this insensitive? Am I being unreasonable? — Three’s Company Dear Three’s Company: If you have a good relationship with your children’s spouses, there shouldn’t be hurt feelings if they are not included this time. There are occasions when spouses sometimes prefer to stay at home. Example: high school reunions. A neighbor of mine, a woman in her 80s, mentioned recently that she was planning a trip back to her hometown with her daughter (sans son-in-law) so they could see the house where she was raised, and the grammar and high schools she attended. For them it was a sentimental journey, but for the husband it would have been as warm and fuzzy an experience as a root canal. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby .com or P.O.

Roseburg
ternoons through Memorial Day, then most days during the summer season. One caveat: Park officials make no promises that vehicles will actually get clean.
Continued from C1 In fact, there’s plenty of excitement here today. But most of it is outside of town. The best-known attraction, and deservedly so, is Wildlife Safari. This drive-through exotic animal park at Winston, 10 minutes’ drive southwest of Roseburg, was established in 1973 to save rare and endangered species. Today, it is home to more than 500 animals from the Americas, Africa and Asia. Most of the animals wander freely through the rolling, wooded hills and savannah-like grasslands; the few species that might be dangerous to visitors are kept in enclosures. Meanwhile, the Umpqua Valley is rapidly gaining a sterling reputation for its wines. Although there are only about 20 wineries in the valley (compared with more than 200 in the Willamette Valley), their production of unusual varietals — including Spanish tempranillo and albariño — has led to acclaim well beyond the state’s boundaries. Toss in a handful of intriguing historic neighborhoods, such as the 19th-century village of Oakland, 20 minutes’ drive north of Roseburg, and there’s plenty of activity for a full weekend’s visit.
The wine route
John Gottberg Anderson / For The Bulletin
Wildlife Safari
As a giraffe looks on, a herd of common elands (antelope native to East and South Africa) cross the road in Wildlife Safari, oblivious to auto traffic. The park has a firm speed limit of 10 miles per hour along the 4.5-mile graded dirt road that winds through its habitat areas.
The entrance to Wildlife Safari is just outside of Winston, a Roseburg suburb of 6,000. A winding 2-mile access route is flanked by signposts bearing such messages as “They roam free, you are the prisoner” and “Any closer you’d be lunch.” The entry road ends at Safari Village, where a camel-ride arena and a zoo train share space with a café and gift shop. “Sanurra,” a cheetah raised in captivity with a large dog as a playmate, greets new arrivals from its cage near the entrance. “Snowball,” a unique black-tailed deer with a white coat, draws adoring throngs to the children’s zoo. Gibbons swing from ropes on an island of primates, and a South American capybara grazes nearby. “Look, Mama,” shouts a young girl. “It looks just like a giant hamster!” Upon leaving Safari Village, visitors return to their vehicles and drive through a portal where park workers describe the rules of the road: Remain in the car at
all times. Don’t drive faster than 10 miles per hour. Don’t feed the animals. Leave your pets in the kennels at the park entrance. The 4.5-mile graded-dirt road twists through grasslands and along the edge of the heavily wooded Oregon Coast Range foothills. Slow-moving vehicles caravan one after the next past hillsides populated by African antelope, zebras and a couple of rhinoceroses. A brazen ostrich strolls up the road, opening its beak with a guttural warning as it stares into the cars. Children’s heads and cameras poke through sunroofs as a giraffe weaves a trail past several vehicles. The park’s small pride of African lions is ominously maintained in a double-fenced enclosure with a guard tower. Nonetheless, the big cats didn’t look very interested in making a meal out of tourists. Two females sprawled languorously on the roof of a structure near the road.
The maned male sat alertly but benignly near the back of the pen, taking in the scene. The road continued past a penned hippopotamus, wallowing in the mud beside a small pond, and around a wetland isle with a resident bald eagle drawing considerable visitor attention. Numerous drivers, whom I suspect may never have been stuck in a buffalo traffic jam at Yellowstone National Park, were fascinated first by a herd of woolly bison along both sides of the park road, then by a dozenodd Roosevelt elk.
Playful bears My favorites were the Alaskan brown bears, specifically, the two juveniles engaged in continuing horseplay, much to the delight of the motorists driving the loop through their special enclosure. I couldn’t tell if they were oblivious to the attention or if they
were playing to the crowd. While the mother bear stayed as far away as she could, patrolling the opposite side of the electrified fence that defined the creatures’ bounds, the youngsters put on a show. Cameras clicked nonstop as the bear pair wrestled and boxed, bit and clawed, then stood back for a moment, looked at one another and appeared to be laughing. There were many more animals to see: Bactrian camels, Tibetan yaks, Siberian tigers. Patagonian guanacos and flightless rheas from the pampas of South America showed particular curiosity about passing vehicles. African elephants often wander freely along with the other animals, but I happened to make my drive during the late-morning “elephant barn adventure,” so the great creatures were sequestered in their habitat at the heart of Wildlife Safari. Zookeepers offer a regular schedule of up-close-
and-personal animal encounters. I missed the Elephant Car Wash, which might well be worth the $20 charge when rain turns the park’s dirt road to mud. Beginning last year, the park’s staff trained three of its elephants to spray and sponge cars. The event is scheduled weekend af-
The best known of the Umpqua Valley’s wineries is so close to Wildlife Safari, the roars of the wild animals can often be heard in its vineyards. This is the Abacela Winery, whose name — from the Spanish-Portuguese verb “abacelar,” “to plant a grapevine” — provides an immediate clue to the nature of its wines. Owners Earl and Hilda Jones began making wine after buying 500 acres of land in 1992. In 1995, they planted 75 acres with Iberian tempranillo, which had never achieved success in California or elsewhere in the Americas. The Umpqua, they reasoned, had an identical latitude and similar climate to Spain’s famed Rioja growing region. It was a risk well rewarded. Within a few years, Abacela’s estate tempranillo was being acknowledged as one of the best of its kind in the world. At the 2001 San Francisco International Wine Competition, Abacela was rated ahead of all 19 Spanish tempranillos entered. A year ago, Abacela won a gold medal in a worldwide tempranillo competition in Spain itself. The Joneses took the next step by planting other Iberian grapes: albariño, garnacha and rosado. They added an Italian dolcetto to go along with malbec, merlot, syrah, cabernet franc and viognier vines. Perhaps surprisingly, Abacela does not produce any pinot noir or pinot gris, the varietals for which Oregon is best known. Continued next page

Delfino Vineyards is nestled in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range 8 miles west of Roseburg. Owners Jim and Terri Delfino accommodate visitors in a luxurious guest cottage, providing them with a full breakfast basket each morning and a bottle of their own wine upon arrival. From previous page Like other wineries in the Umpqua Valley, the Abacela Winery remains a small family operation. A lazy yellow lab lies on the welcome mat at the entrance to the tasting room, which is tiny and often very crowded. Different from Willamette Valley wineries, Abacela doesn’t charge a tasting fee for sips of a trio of wines. Neither, I discovered, do other Umpqua wineries. I was glad to find a quiet lodging in the heart of this wine country. Up the road just a few miles from Abacela, north of the old farming community of Lookingglass, Jim and Terri Delfino rent out a guest cottage in the heart of their Delfino Vineyards. The suite has a spacious living room with television and wireless Internet service, a gracious bedroom, a full bath and a refrigerator stocked with water, juice and other items. Each morning, Terri Delfino delivers a carafe of freshly brewed coffee and a breakfast basket of light, home-baked cranberry scones and a tray of fresh seasonal fruit: cantaloupe, kiwifruit, sliced oranges and strawberries. And if that weren’t enough, upon arrival, guests are given a complimentary bottle of Delfino syrah or zinfandel. Although the guest cottage won’t allow you to take your own pet, the Delfinos have five friendly dogs of their own who are happy to accompany guests on walks around the property. The Delfinos are relative newcomers to the Umpqua Valley. They bought their vineyard in 2001 after moving north from San Francisco. Although Jim Delfino’s former position had been in property management,
he wanted to sink his fingers in the earth. Both of his grandfathers had been farmers. The couple planted 11 acres in 2002 and harvested their first grapes in 2004, consulting with other Umpqua growers and rapidly learning as they went. By 2007, Jim Delfino had been hired as a consultant to help launch an Umpqua Community College viticulture and oenology program. He remains on the board of directors, and welcomes the program’s 20 students to his vineyard to work and study the processes of growing grapes and making wine.
Mid-valley tasting I reserved a full afternoon to explore other wineries of the central Umpqua Valley. I was particularly impressed by ReustlePrayer Rock Vineyards, located west of Sutherlin and a 20-minute drive northwest of Roseburg via Garden Valley Road. Owners Steve and Gloria Reustle (pronounced “Russell”) take a different approach to wine tasting than many of their industry colleagues. They regard their role as wine educators, offering food-and-wine pairings in a specially designed wine cave year-round, Tuesdays through Saturdays. On my visit, they matched sauvignon blanc, pinot noir, tempranillo and syrah with cheese blocks, an avocado brochette and a savory dumpling. As many wines taste quite differently accompanied by food than by themselves, it was a tasty marketing ploy. The Reustle wine cave was designed by Hollywood set designer Tom Pappas, an Umpqua Valley neighbor. Devout Christians,
the winery owners have inlaid five scriptures from the Biblical Book of Romans into the floor of the cave, and sculptures of the archangels Michael and Gabriel appear in the walls. But they don’t proselytize. And they have big plans for expanding their presence in the Umpqua community, including a summer concert series and a retreat center. Nearby is the small Henry Estate, whose selection includes sweeter Gewürztraminer and Müller-Thurgau varietals. Down the road, the large Melrose Estate has perhaps the valley’s finest gift shop and facility for weddings and other parties; its pinots are especially notable. And on a nearby hilltop is the HillCrest Vineyard & Winery, the old-
est “estate winery” in Oregon. (In viticultural parlance, an estate winery is one that crushes grapes, not berries or plums, for wine.) Owners Dyson and Sue DeMara bought HillCrest in 2003 from wine pioneer Richard Sommer, who planted the first vines here in 1961, long before the industry established a foothold anywhere else in the state. Dyson DeMara had a long personal background in the California wine industry, working with Robert Mondavi and others, before establishing roots for his family in the Roseburg area. I asked him what he feels is special about the Umpqua region.
“Apart from the changing human element, it’s the soil and climate,” DeMara said. “We have a drier climate and a lower latitude than the Willamette Valley, and our topography is 75 percent mountains and hills. As a result, we have 150 soil types in the county, more than any other county in America.” That is why, he said, the wide range of varietals is possible.

Continued from C1 Then the library connected with Chimps Inc., a chimpanzee sanctuary in Tumalo, and “our theme became ‘captivity issues with large, intelligent, long-lived animals,’� she says, adding that the recent death of a trainer at Sea World in Orlando lends timeliness to the topic. The two-day festival gets under way April 16, when Hammond will visit classrooms at Madras High School, speaking
to biology and agriculture students about elephants and killer whales. She’ll also conduct a writing workshop with selected English students. At 7 p.m. April 16, public events for the festival begin at the Jefferson County Library Annex in Madras, featuring a screening of the documentary “The Urban Elephant,� along with talks by Paula Muellner of Chimps Inc., discussing large animals in captivity, and Lesley Day, founder of Chimps Inc., explaining why she started the sanctuary.
At 9 a.m. April 17, Hammond will offer a writing workshop, limited to 18 participants, on the theme of “Writing from Found Materials� (participants must sign up in advance at Jefferson County Library). At 7 p.m., Hammond will discuss “How a Killer Whale Became an Asian Elephant.� Both events will be held

Roseburg Continued from C5 HillCrest and other local wineries are participating in a pair of Umpqua Valley Winery Barrel Tours on April 17 and May 22. Wine enthusiasts will board buses in Roseburg and spend afternoons touring vineyards, meeting winemakers and sampling foods paired with wines. Tickets are still available at $50 per person and can be purchased by calling 541-672-5701.
Looking back Back in Roseburg, the region’s wine industry is not forgotten. A major exhibit at the Douglas County Museum of Natural & Cultural History is “Wine: A 10,000 Year History.” Displaying Middle Eastern wine containers and other artifacts from the pre-Christian era, the exhibit also details the contributions of such Umpqua wine pioneers as HillCrest’s Richard Sommer and Abacela’s Earl and Hilda Jones. The museum, located beside the county fairgrounds at the south end of the city, also has a variety of animal displays (including a den of live rattlesnakes) and exhibits on the pioneer lifestyle. An old railroad station and century-old artifacts from the farming and logging industries are integral elements in its displays. The handsome new City of
Roseburg Visitor Center stands beside the South Umpqua River a few steps from downtown. Just around the corner is the city’s best-known building, the 1866 Floed-Lane House, once home to General Joseph Lane, a territorial governor and Oregon’s first senator after statehood. Now maintained by the Douglas County Historical Society, it is open for visits on weekend afternoons. Numerous handsome homes are located within a short walk of the downtown area. There are turreted Queen Anne-style Victorians in the 700 block of Southeast Kane Street, and a wide range of other homes and churches dating from the 1870s to the 1920s. None, fortunately, were severely damaged by “The Blast.” That occurred during the early-morning hours of Aug. 7, 1959. According to the Douglas County Museum, a truck loaded with two tons of dynamite and 4½ tons of ammonium nitrate was ignited by a random fire at a building-supply store adjacent to where it had been parked overnight. The resulting explosion opened a crater 12 feet deep and 52 feet in diameter. Three hundred businesses within a 30block radius were damaged, and the face of Roseburg was forever altered. A plaque marking the epicenter is now anchored in a stone beside an automobile dealership on Pine Street, between Washington and Oak avenues. A
walking-tour brochure is distributed at the visitor center. The best restaurants I found during my visit were outside the blast zone, on Main and Jackson streets. I especially liked Brix 527, which offers a special Friday-night dinner (I had a Mediterranean chicken-and-tenderloin combo) to complement its daily breakfasts and lunches. At the Mark V Bar & Grill, I enjoyed a large bowl of steamer clams and a seasoned pork shank. The Philly steak sandwich I had at the locally owned Winston Drive-In, near Wildlife Safari, was memorable: chopped beef, onions, bell peppers and mushrooms on a large hoagie bun topped with mozzarella cheese. In Oakland — the first historic district in Oregon so honored by the National Register of Historic Places — Tolly’s Restaurant is a great lunch stop. Lodged in an 1890s commercial block, the restaurant incorporates an old-fashioned soda fountain and a fine antiques store. Oakland was established in 1852 around a grist mill, and was a major commercial center in Southern Oregon until about 1910. It still boasts more than 70 houses and commercial buildings dating from the 19th century, and is a worthy detour for Umpqua Valley visitors on a return drive to Central Oregon.

H BY JACQUELINE BIGAR HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, April 4, 2010: This year, you have many opportunities. Deciding which way to go could be difficult at times. Look to your goals for direction. A special friend often comes up with creative ideas. If you are single, you could meet someone quite suddenly. This person could be different but an experience to be remembered. If you are attached, the two of you might want to unite over a cause or take a workshop together. CAPRICORN is always a friend. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Touch base with those at a distance. Create a situation where your mind can wander. Put on some music, take a drive or maybe go for a hike. Just relax. Tonight: Start thinking “Monday.” TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Understand what is happening with a partner. An older friend or relative adds to your sense of well-being. Share more with a treasured partner or friend. Join friends for an early dinner. Tonight: Think “exotic.” GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Others have a lot to share and say. Juggle your different invitations, honoring the people you enjoy most. Drop being a people pleaser; it is the hardest on you. You have a unique identity. Tonight: Stop and make time for a special person.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Complete a project. As you loosen up and release pressure, you seem more in the mood to relate to a key partner. You have a way of drawing others close. A nurturing gesture means more than you know. Tonight: Dinner out. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Others cannot help but respond to your energy. Reach out for someone at a distance and/or make plans to meet halfway. A new setting helps clear up recent events and helps you gain a new perspective. Allow yourself to be carefree. Tonight: Start thinking about Monday. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Invite others over rather than head out the door. You might feel more comfortable in that setting. An important discussion with a friend or loved one revitalizes your bond. Trust and confidence build between you. Tonight: Don’t worry about tomorrow; live today. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Head out the door. A child or loved one incorporates you into his or her plans. Note how very much you are enjoying yourself in his or her chosen setting or happening. Your high energy carries you through most of the day. Tonight: Head home and make it a quiet night. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Do some checking about an expenditure. Do some price comparing. One option could feel risky. Join a family member or neighbor for a chat. Don’t push yourself too hard. A
conversation could revolutionize your thinking. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Follow your sixth sense. You might feel as if you simply know something before it happens. Relax in a favorite way. Take a walk along water, or perhaps go to a movie. Let your mind relax, and suspend judgments for now. Your creativity bubbles up. Tonight: Order in. Treat yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Use today for you. Some of you might want to do research or complete your taxes. When you are finally clear, you will feel much better. Take a nap; make a call or two. Meet up with friends for an afternoon snack. Tonight: You get a second wind. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Do the Aquarian thing: Find your friends. You cannot help but enjoy yourself with your entourage. Go off and watch a baseball game or some other fun happening that most of you enjoy. You sense what is going on with another person. Don’t push him or her. Tonight: Much-needed quiet time. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Meet your responsibilities. You could be overwhelmed by everything that you have to do. Make sure to schedule some fun time for later. You will need it, and you deserve it. Your instincts tell you what to do with a difficult friend or relative. Tonight: Pretend it is Friday night. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Billy Corgan wrestles with music industry By Luis Arroyave CHICAGO — Less than an hour before his first Chicago show since December 2008, Billy Corgan sat in LaSalle Power Co.’s U-shaped green room last week discussing — what else? — professional wrestling. The Smashing Pumpkins singer, a die-hard wrestling fan, managed to make the conversation sound like a discussion about theater (“If a wrestler can embody a character, you’ll go along for the ride”) and kept the tone serious and analytical. “Part of my attraction to that world is that I put the same energy into it that I used to put into my music world,” said Corgan, 42, who was performing at a benefit for NorthShore University HealthSystem’s Integrative Medicine Program. “It’s not political for me. In the musical world, it got political. I stopped reading all music press and now just read wrestling press.” If it sounds as if Corgan is down on the record industry, that’s because he is. One of the reasons he plans to release 44 new Smashing Pumpkins songs for free online is to avoid having to deal with record-industry drama. Corgan has so far released
two songs off the “Teargarden By Kaleidyscope” project and said he just completed a sixth song. “I think a song at a time over the course of three to four years makes sense,” Corgan said. “I figured this was the best way to skip all that drama. All that drama is really boring.” When asked about his studio collaboration with pop star Jessica Simpson last month, Corgan said it was for her coming VH1reality show, “The Price of Beauty.” “She asked me to help her out on the theme song for her new TV show,” said Corgan, who has been linked to Simpson in the tabloids. “(The show) has an interesting concept. She goes around the world to show how different people perceive beauty. “I ended up writing part of (the theme song). It has a little bit of an alternative rock edge, but it’s still very pop-y.” What’s next for Corgan — besides recording 38 more Pumpkins songs? “I just signed a deal to write my memoir,” Corgan said. “It’s supposed to come out at the end of next year. It’s a spiritual memoir about life from a spiritual perspective — not from a media or celeb perspective.”

A new season, a new position for Ellsbury Madras High grad playing for Boston moves from center to left field in his fourth year in the majors
By Phil Rogers

On TV
In moving to left field, Jacoby Ellsbury now stands in the footsteps of Boston Red Sox legends Ted Williams, Carl Yastrzemski and Jim Rice, each of whom played his Hall of Fame baseball career in the shadow of Fenway Park’s famous “Green Monster.” Ellsbury, a Central Oregon native and former Madras White Buffalo, Bend Elk and Oregon State Beaver, is expected to be in left field and batting leadoff for the Red Sox tonight when Boston hosts the rival New York Yankees in the nationally televised opening game of the 2010 Major League Baseball regular season. The 26-year-old Ellsbury is entering his fourth big-league season, counting his

UConn player and Nebraska coach win AP awards SAN ANTONIO — Tina Charles sat next to Maya Moore at the AP Awards ceremony Saturday fully expecting to congratulate her teammate on winning another trophy. UConn’s star center was completely shocked when she ended up being the one picking up the award. Charles got 33 of the votes from the 40-member national media panel that selects the weekly Top 25 to earn The Associated Press player of the year honor. Moore won the award last season. Nebraska’s Connie Yori was voted the AP’s coach of the year this season. Charles, who holds both the career scoring and rebounding record for Connecticut’s powerhouse program, has been the anchor in the middle for the Huskies during their NCAA record 76-game winning streak. She averaged 18.3 points, 9.3 rebounds, and shot 63.5 percent from the field to help UConn move within two victories of becoming the first team ever to go undefeated in consecutive seasons. Yori guided Nebraska on one of the biggest turnarounds in NCAA history, going from 15-16 last season to winning their first 30 games before losing in the Big 12 tournament semifinals, then reached the regional semifinals for the first time in school history. — The Associated Press
Storylines to watch this season
Steven Senne / The Associated Press
Electronic readers don’t come with traditional pages or the familiar numbering system. They show you a percentage of the book that you have read. Sometimes, while looking forward to the ending, the book just ends. Who knew that the last 23 percent would be footnotes and acknowledgements? Managerial careers can be like that too — over unexpectedly, without the ending that we wanted. The 2010 season brings with it an unusual, perhaps unprecedented, sense of foretelling. Bobby Cox and six others who have been the best managers of their generation enter what could be their farewell season. A lot of people are hoping at least a few of them author fitting endings, if this is the end. Between them, the Braves’ Cox, the Cardinals’ Tony La Russa, the Dodgers’ Joe Torre, the Cubs’ Lou Piniella, the Tigers’ Jim Leyland, the Reds’ Dusty Baker and the Blue Jays’ Cito Gaston have compiled 12,330 victories over 154 seasons.

A wintry Great Nordeen More than 160 turn out for a spring race at Mount Bachelor that benefited from a lot of fresh snowfall By Katie Brauns The Bulletin
Dan Oliver / The Bulletin
More than 100 ski racers hit the 30-kilometer course Saturday in the 2010 Desert Orthopedics Great Nordeen. The point-to-point freestyle race started at Mt. Bachelor ski area’s Sunrise Lodge and finished at Wanoga Sno-park. There was also a 15K course, in which 65 racers completed.

Planning a nordic ski race in April is a task fraught with variables. The snow could be sparsely spread through the woods. Or, as in the case of Saturday’s race in Central Oregon, the biggest storm of the season could hit. For the 2010 Desert Orthopedics Great Nordeen, nearly two feet of fresh snow fell overnight Friday on the forests in the foothills of Mount Bachelor. After a week of trail prep and two sweeps of the groomer in the early hours of Saturday morning, the Great Nordeen’s 15- and 30kilometer courses were packed and ready for the race. “I think everyone was a little nervous about the conditions when winter was making a comeback,” said Bend’s Lars Flora, 32, who won the men’s 30K in a time of 1 hour, 11 minutes, 23 seconds. “The course was well-groomed and it was good skiing out there. … It was over before it kind of started. It was fast. We were all thinking it was going to be such a slough fest out there, and it wasn’t.” See Nordeen / D5

INDIANAPOLIS — After 25 years, “Hoosiers” is getting a rewrite. One more win, and plucky Butler will give it an even better ending. Gordon Hayward had 19 points and nine rebounds, including one with 2 seconds left that sealed the game. The small school looked anything but, taking down another of college basketball’s biggest names with a 52-50 victory over Michigan State in the Final Four on Saturday. Butler (33-4) now plays Duke in Monday night’s title game. In its hometown, no less. Hollywood couldn’t write this any better. See Butler / D4

S B Boxing • Hopkins outpoints Jones in long-delayed rematch: Bernard Hopkins won a brutal unanimous decision over Roy Jones Jr. in their long-delayed rematch Saturday night, emphatically avenging his loss in the famed champions’ first fight nearly 17 years ago. The 45-year-old Hopkins (51-5-1, 32 KOs) dominated nearly every round of a light heavyweight bout filled with wily veteran tactics and fueled by obvious mutual hatred. He won for the fifth time in his six fights since 2005. Hopkins punctuated his dominance with a stirring rebound from Jones’ punch behind his head late in the sixth round at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.
Football • Police: Notre Dame recruit ‘drunk’ on fatal fall: A “drunk and belligerent” 17-year-old Notre Dame football recruit was killed in a fall from a fifth-floor hotel balcony during his senior-year spring break in Florida, authorities said Saturday. Matt James died Friday around 6:30 p.m. at the Days Inn Motel in Panama City Beach. Police said he was dead when officers arrived. James, an all-state offensive lineman, had been the first top signing for new Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly. James was part of a group of about 40 St. Xavier students and a half-dozen parents on the trip. “Witnesses and friends indicate he had become drunk and belligerent,” Panama City Beach police Maj. David Humphreys said. “He had leaned over the balcony rail, was shaking his finger at the people in the next room over. He fell over.”
Auto racing • Kevin Harvick wins Nationwide race: Kevin Harvick took advantage of a late caution to win the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Nashville Superspeedway on Saturday, the Sprint Cup driver’s second victory in four series starts this season. Harvick and crew chief Ernie Cope gambled by taking two tires under caution and seized the lead from Brad Keselowski, who was forced to pit under green a few laps earlier. Keselowski’s brother, Brian, touched off the race-changing caution by spinning at the entrance to pit road. Kyle Busch, who beat Harvick in the trucks race Friday night, was third.
Baseball • Former Orioles star pitcher Cuellar dies at 72: Mike Cuellar, a crafty left-hander from Cuba whose darting screwball made him a World Series champion and Cy Young winner with the Baltimore Orioles, died Friday. He was 72. The Orioles confirmed Cuellar’s death, but did not release other details. A four-time All-Star, Cuellar was 185-130 overall with a 3.14 ERA. He was voted into the Orioles’ Hall of Fame. — From wire reports

Blazers help playoff positioning with win The Associated Press SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Just making the playoffs isn’t enough for the Portland Trail Blazers. They want to move up as far as possible in the Western Conference. Brandon Roy scored 24 points, Andre Miller added 23 and the Trail Blazers beat the Sacramento Kings 98-87 on Saturday night. Portland is fighting San Antonio for the seventh position. “You want to be the best you can be in the regular season and the regular season is not over,” coach Nate McMillan said. “We have an opportunity to move from the eighth spot to the seventh spot and possibly farther. That’s what we like to do.” Nicolas Batum and LaMarcus Aldridge each scored 21 points for the Trail Blazers, and Marcus Camby had 15 rebounds. Portland rebounded from a loss at Denver on Thursday night for its 10th victory in 12 games. “We are playing good basketball and trying to do everything we can to move up,” Roy said. “Teams ahead of us are winning games, too, but we can only control what we can. We’re just going to go one game at a time.” Beno Udrih led the Kings with 22 points, Jason Thompson added 18, and Carl Landry had 14 points and nine rebounds. The Kings, coming off a five-game trip, have lost seven straight. The Trail Blazers led 72-69 after three quarters, but Omri Cassipi tied it at 78, and then hit a layup to give the Kings the lead with 7:26 left. Portland took the lead for good at 85-82 on Batum’s threepointer and the Trail Blazers outscored the Kings 13-5 the rest of the way. “They just hit shots at the end of the game,” Landry said. “Brandon Roy hit some tough shots. The last time we played them, we scored more field goals than them but we still lost so it’s all about execution down the stretch, defense, of-

Portland guard Andre Miller, right, tries to shoot over Sacramento guard Tyreke Evans during the first quarter of Saturday’s game in Sacramento, Calif. fense, and we didn’t do all that tonight.” Portland’s backups scored only seven points.
“We are still going to need our bench,” Roy said. “We are going to need them if we are going to make a run for the playoffs.”

Clijsters continues strong comeback By Steven Wine The Associated Press
KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. — Serena Williams cupped a hand to her mouth and hollered from her front-row seat, like any other fan hoping to see a better match. Or at least see Venus Williams win a point. Kim Clijsters claimed another trophy in her career comeback Saturday by beating the older Williams 6-2, 6-1 in the final of the Sony Ericsson Open. The match was even more lopsided than the score might suggest. Clijsters won 17 consecutive points in the second set, the equivalent of more than four games. “It wasn’t my best day,” Williams said. “She played extremely solid, but it’s not like I was blown off the court. Unfortunately, I was my own worst enemy.” Mercifully, it lasted only 58 minutes, ending with some ticket-holders still snarled in traffic on the causeway to the island. When Williams hit one final errant forehand on match point, Clijsters raised her arms in tri-

TENNIS umph. Williams greeted her at the net with a gracious grin. “I felt like from the beginning I was ready to go and really seeing the ball well,” Clijsters said. “Of course she hit a lot of easy mistakes today, so I was just really trying to not lose my rhythm.” Clijsters also won the tournament in 2005. Andy Roddick bids for his second Key Biscayne title today against Tomas Berdych, who upset Roger Federer en route to the final. After retiring in 2007, Clijsters married and became a mother before returning to the tour last August. She won the U.S. Open the following month, and now has three titles in her comeback. “What has changed for me now is whatever I do at the courts, it’s almost like my time off,” Clijsters said. “I get to come here, work out and play my matches. It’s like Mommy time. When I’m done, I’m really focused on my family life, and I like the balance.”

MEN’S BASKETBALL: NCAA FINAL FOUR
Pitching leads Bend to pair of wins over TDW
Duke returns to title game
Bulletin staff report THE DALLES — Powerful pitching and sound defense ensured a Lava Bears’ sweep over The Dalles-Wahtonka during Saturday’s Intermountain Conference baseball doubleheader. In the first game, Bend topped the Eagle Indians 3-1 in nine innings and followed up with a 6-2 win in the second game of the day. The Lava Bears (2-1 IMC, 3-5 overall), led by Michael Hirko’s solid effort on the mound, took a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning of game one, but the host team found an answer in the sixth inning and scored a single run to tie the ballgame at 1-1. However, in the top of the ninth, Grant Newton’s single drove home Kenny Norgaard for the go-ahead run. Newton scored later in the inning. Hirko struck out seven in pitching a complete game. “Michael really executed, he made pitches when he had to,” Bend coach Dan Weber said. “He was really efficient, and we played good defense behind him.” Like Hirko, pitcher Travis Weist went the distance for Bend in a seven-inning game two, supported by a stingy Lava Bears defense. The visiting team allowed two runs on four hits against last season’s Class 5A state semifinalists, while Weist struck out eight. “It was a real testament to our pitching that we could go on the road and sweep a doubleheader from a good team,” Weber said. Hirko was two for four with one run and an RBI in game two, and Newton finished two for three with two runs to his credit. The Lava Bears are back in action Thursday, hosting Mountain View. In other prep action Saturday: BASEBALL Mountain View. . . . . . . . . . . 10-9 Madras . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4-20 Madras and host Mountain View split an Intermountain Conference doubleheader during which both teams scored in double digits in their respective victories. While the Buffs lost by six runs in game one, in game two they turned around and defeated the Cougs by 11. In the first matchup for the Cougs, Jo Carroll and John Carroll both tallied three-run triples, Alex Robinett had a two-run triple in the sixth,
and Jared Mierjeski smacked a two-run homer also in the sixth. In game two for the Buffs, Pheron Spino had a two-run double in the second, Ryan Brunner registered a two-run double in the fourth, and Spencer Ellsbury nailed a three-run triple in the sixth inning. Alex Robinett countered with a home run and three RBIs for Mountain View. The split puts Madras at 6-3 overall and 2-1 in the IMC. The Cougs are now 1-2 in league and 16 overall. On Thursday, the Buffs host Pendleton, while Mountain View will travel to Bend. SOFTBALL The Dalles-Wahtonka. . . . 18-10 Bend . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0-0 THE DALLES — Bend High dropped to 0-7 overall after losing three consecutive Intermountain Conference games to The Dalles-Wahtonka. The Lava Bears (0-3 IMC) gave up 18 runs on 18 hits in the first game but played a much improved second game, according to coach Mary Evers. Pitcher Jessie Blanchard (sr.) returned for Bend in game two and limited the Eagle Indians to nine hits. Kaydee Tarin (jr.) notched the visiting squad’s lone hit in game two, a fifth inning single. The Lava Bears continue league play Thursday, hosting Mountain View. Madras . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .17-13 Mountain View. . . . . . . . . . . 2-16 Madras delivered a shocking blow to host Mountain View in game one when the White Buffaloes won by a landslide 15 runs in five innings. The Cougars regained their compusure in game two to win by three. “I was really proud of the team today,” said head Mountain View coach Alana Dusan. “They really showed character in the second game.” In game one, Alex Holcomb of Madras brought home five runs on two home runs during a high-scoring third inning in which the Buffs registered 12 runs. For the Cougars, KadieRae Hayward registered a triple. In game two for Madras, JoElla Smith clocked a two-run home run in the third, and Natalie Martin hit a two-run triple in the second inning. For Mountain View, Whitney Bigby had a pair of doubles. The split puts the Cougs at 1-2 in league and 4-4 overall. Madras moves to 2-1 in the Intermountain Conference and 5-3 overall. On Thursday, Mountain View hosts Bend, while Madras hosts Pendleton.

Duke’s Miles Plumlee (21) dunks in front of West Virginia’s John Flowers during the second half of Saturday’s Final Four semifinal game in Indianapolis.
Butler Continued from D1 “We’ve been talking about the next game all year, and it’s great to be able to say the next game’s for a national championship,” Hayward said. Michigan State (28-9) has been living on the edge all tournament, ravaged by injuries and squeaking from game to game, and this night was no different. After trailing by as much as seven in the second half, Draymond Green made a pair of free throws to pull Michigan State within 5049 with 56 seconds left. Ronald Nored missed a jumper, and Michigan State got the rebound. But Hayward wouldn’t give the driving Green an inch, forcing him to put up an awkward layup that didn’t come close. Nored scooped up the rebound, and Green had no choice but to foul him, ending the big fella’s game. Nored, who had been just three for 12 from the line in the tournament, made both, and the Bulldogs had a 52-49 lead with six seconds to play. After a timeout, the Spartans inbounded the ball and Butler was all over them, choosing to foul rather than take a chance on the Spartans getting off a three — like they did to beat Maryland at the buzzer. Korie Lucious made the first and bricked the second as Hayward came up with the ball to seal the victory and set off a party the likes of which Indiana hasn’t seen since tiny Milan beat Muncie Central for the state title in 1954, the reallife inspiration for “Hoosiers.” “I don’t know if I got a piece of the ball, maybe a piece of his arm,” Hayward said. “I’m just glad we got that last stop.” Although the Bulldogs are no plucky underdog, there’s no doubting the connections between “Hoosiers” and Butler’s magical run. In the movie, the final score was 42-40. The actual Milan final score — 32-30. And Saturday night, 52-50, extending the nation’s best winning streak to 25 — and counting. Watching it all unfold was Bobby Plump, whose buzzer-beating jumper gave Milan the win. “Both sides really battled,” said Butler coach Brad Stevens, who has waited all of three years to play for his first national title. “We were lucky to be up 2 at the end.” Luck had nothing to do with it. Butler knocked off top-seeded Syracuse and followed with a victory over No. 2 seed Kansas State last weekend, the only Final Four team to beat the top two
INDIANAPOLIS — After tossing a big, wet blanket on one feel-good story, Duke gets to go after another. They don’t call ’em the Devils for nothing. Jon Scheyer scored 23 points Saturday night to lift Duke, the team so many folks love to hate, to a 78-57 victory over West Virginia and set up a meeting against tiny Butler — a classic matchup of big vs. little, with the national title on the line. “I think they’re one of the best teams in the country,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said of his upcoming opponent, which has won 25 straight. “I think a Cinderella would be more if somebody had eight or nine losses and pulled some upsets.” Still, Butler is a No. 5 seed. And in a tournament turned upside down, the Blue Devils (34-5) were the only No. 1 seed to make it to the Final Four. Their trip, however, wasn’t totally predictable or expected. Duke had gone six long years since its last appearance and hasn’t been to the final since winning it all nine years ago — a veritable century by Tobacco Road standards. Now, this group of Blue Devils has a chance to give Coach K his fourth national championship. “It’s everything,” senior center Brian Zoubek said. “This is the culmination of four years for me. To have a shot at the championship my senior year, after everything we’ve
seeded teams in its region. And just as Stevens did against the Orange and Wildcats, he found Michigan State’s weakness and went after it. The offense-bycommittee that had worked well enough without injured Kalin Lucas, who led the Spartans in scoring until blowing out his left Achilles’ tendon in the secondround victory over Maryland, fell apart against the Bulldogs. Durrell Summers, who had averaged 20 points in Michigan State’s first four tournament games, was held to 14. Green had 12 as did Lucious, who was playing in place of Lucas. Senior Raymar Morgan, who spent most of the game in foul trouble, finished with just four points. Butler also forced fellow No. 5 seed Michigan State into 16 turnovers and held the Spartans to zero — yes, zero — fastbreak points. The Bulldogs outrebounded Michigan State on the offensive glass, 11 to 8. Perhaps most shocking, they outmuscled the bigger, bulkier Spartans and have the battle scars to prove it. Hayward had a bloody lip by the time the night was over. Matt Howard got knocked silly in a collision with Green. Shelvin Mack spent most of the second half on the bench with cramps in his legs, and Stevens was unsure of his availability for Monday. Want to know what The Butler Way is? Just watch a tape of this
been through, is a dream come true.” This was a wire-to-wire pullaway against the West Virginia team coached by alum Bob Huggins, who led the Mountaineers (31-7) on a 10-game winning streak that included the Big East tournament title and ended with a trip to the Final Four. It was an inspiring journey, the first for West Virginia in 51 years, back when Jerry West wore the old gold and blue. Huggins returned to West Virginia to bring an elusive title back home to a state that loves its flagship school like few others. But any chance of that ended with 8:59 left, when the Mountaineers’ star, Da’Sean Butler, twisted his left knee and, to add insult to injury, got called for a charge as he crumpled to the ground. The sequence left him writhing in pain under the basket and his coach, the Huggy Bear, came out to the floor, first to yell at the refs, then to kneel down and tenderly cup the head of his star — the player who, more than anyone, made this run possible. “He just told me not to worry about it, that I’ll be fine,” Butler said. “And I told him that it hurts right now, but if I can get back out there, then I’ll get back out there.” He didn’t. The 17-point-per-game scorer finished with 10, and was held to a mere basket in the first half while the Blue Devils were building their lead to as many as 13. Wellington Smith led the Mountaineers with 12 points.
game. “If I was not playing, I’d be a Butler fan,” Izzo said. “I like the way they play, I like their story. They play like a Big Ten team.”

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL: NCAA FINAL FOUR
Avoid linking Stanford with ‘everybody else’ By Jaime Aron The Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — Stanford players just smile and laugh when they hear people say women’s college basketball this season is “Connecticut and everybody else.” They can’t really argue with the UConn part because the Huskies have won 76 straight games. Yet they can take issue being lumped in with “everybody else.” Stanford has beaten everybody else this season, too, the only blemish on its 35-1 record coming against Connecticut. With one more victory — against Oklahoma in the early game at the Final Four today — coach Tara VanDerveer’s players will have done their part to set up a tantalizing rematch with the Huskies in the national championship game. “I think we have a lot of the mechanics it takes to win a national championship,” said forward Nnemkadi Ogwumike, Stanford’s leading scorer at 18.2 points per game and rebounder (9.6). “If we really work hard and play well, I think a lot of people will be happy with what they’re seeing.” Stanford was the last team to beat Connecticut nearly two years ago in the 2008 Final Four. The Cardinal came closer to beating the Huskies this season than anyone else. Like UConn, Stanford’s season has been filled with lopsided wins. The Cardinal cruised in the NCAA tournament until the regional final against Xavier. Xavier missed a pair of layups in the closing seconds, and allowed Jeanette Pohlen to race the length of the court with 4.4 seconds left for a buzzer-beating layup. “You make it by 40 points, you make it by 4 seconds — either way you’re still here at the Final Four,” Stanford center Jayne Appel said. “I think that our team is aware of what we’ve accomplished this year. And we’ve played everyone: Duke, Tennessee, you name it. So we’ll be coming out, ready to go.” So will Oklahoma, which enters the Final Four with a 27-10 record.
The Sooners got here a year after graduating one of the best players in school history, Courtney Paris, and after losing its expected top player, Whitney Hand, to a knee injury five games into the season. They overcame the nation’s toughest schedule — Stanford is the only No. 1 seed they haven’t faced — and their tournament run has been boosted by the emergence of Abi Olajuwon, the daughter of Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon, who worked her way into the starting lineup as a senior. Point guard Danielle Robinson was named a third-team All-American, but that’s it for headliners. So it’s only fitting that the first thing you see walking into the OU locker room at the Alamodome is a big, handwritten sign that reads, “Talent wins games, but teammates win championships,” with the names of every player and coach surrounding the phrase. They’re not simply happy to be here, either. They made that mistake last year, letting a 12-point halftime lead turn into a twopoint loss to Louisville. “Last year, we settled,” Robinson said. “We know how hard it is to get here, especially back to back, so we’re just going to go out there and fight like we have for our whole season.” Oklahoma also has its own UConn-framed, claim-to-fame: The Sooners were the only team this season other than Stanford to lead the Huskies in the second half. The Xs and Os make this a classic matchup of size (Stanford) vs. speed (Oklahoma). Point guards Robinson and Pohlen have been going against each other since they were kids in northern California, having met in a high school championship game in 2007 and having spent last summer together on the U.S. team that won gold at the World University Games. Stanford has won the last three meetings, but both coaches downplayed any talk of a rivalry, noting that most of their meetings were in the NCAA tournament. The last one was in San Antonio, in a Sweet 16 game in 2006.
UConn ready for a challege from Baylor By Doug Feinberg The Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — Maya Moore and Connecticut have had one goal in mind since winning the national championship last season: Do it again. The Huskies have met every challenge during their remarkable two-year unbeaten run, but they’ve never faced one as unique as 6-foot-8 phenom Brittney Griner. UConn, which stands two games away from becoming the first women’s team with consecutive undefeated seasons, will play Griner and Baylor in the second game of the national semifinals tonight. “Ever since we got back to school last year that’s all we’ve been focused on,” coach Geno Auriemma said. If UConn wins, the Huskies will take on Stanford or Oklahoma in the championship game Tuesday night. Either way, their final opponent would be a team they’ve already beaten this season. Over the last two seasons, UConn has won an NCAA-record 76 straight games, all by double figures. It has looked even more dominant in this tournament, cruising through the first four rounds with a 47-point average margin of victory. There’s a slew of staggering numbers connected to UConn’s streak but just check out its defense during the 2010 tourney. Already the top defensive team in the country, it has allowed just 40 points a game and held teams to nearly 26 percent shooting from the field. The Huskies, seeking their seventh national championship, are on pace to shatter NCAA tournament defensive records. “At this point, it’s not a whole lot of physical changes, it’s all in
your mind,” Moore said. “It’s all focus and knowing your scouting report. Studying your opponent and knowing what you needed to do. We pick it up in March and April.” Baylor also has been shutting down teams with Griner in the middle. She’s already set the NCAA tournament record for blocks with 35 through the first four games. She broke the single-game mark with 14 against Georgetown in the second round. No wonder the Lady Bears have held their opponents to just under 35 percent shooting. “If she’s not blocking a shot, she’s altering it, or she’s altering a play that’s set for an opposing team just because of her big presence in the middle,” guard Melissa Jones said. While most of the attention is on the imposing center matchup of Griner and The Associated Press player of the year Tina Charles, Baylor will need to find a way to stop Moore. The sensational junior is averaging 21.8 points while playing just half the game. She’s shooting 64 percent from the field, including a mind-boggling 70 percent on three-pointers. “Something about the tournament gets me excited,” Moore said. “I’m playing free right now and not trying to do a whole lot of thinking. I’m really comfortable right now.” The last time the Final Four was in San Antonio, UConn won the first of three straight titles in 2002. The Huskies beat Oklahoma in the championship game that year. Connecticut (37-0) has entered the NCAAs unbeaten on four prior occasions. It won the title in 1995, 2002 and last season, and lost to Tennessee in the regional final in ’97.
Nordeen Continued from D1 The point-to-point freestyle course started at Mt. Bachelor ski area’s Sunrise Lodge and headed east on snowmobile trails to the finish at Wanoga Sno-park. For both race distances, the net elevation dropped about 1,000 feet from start to finish. The snowmobile trails used for the Great Nordeen event are accessible to skiers only once each year — on race day. Some 160 competitors took to the courses on Saturday. “It’s a fun way to wind down the season,” said Kelly Simoneau, a race organizer with the Mt. Bachelor Sports Education Foundation. “It’s different — get off the normal trails.” Simoneau added that MBSEF course designers last week had to reroute the 30K course to higher elevations in some places due to lack of snow coverage. Despite the unexpected heaps of fluff that piled up in the days preceding the Great Nordeen, the course change remained for Saturday’s competition. For the first six years of the Great Nordeen, the race was staged in January. Starting in 2009, MBSEF pushed the event to April due to scheduling conflicts. Now, the Great Nordeen marks the end of the cross-country ski season for most local racers — even for world-class competitors like Saturday’s first-place female finisher, Kristina Strandberg. In the name of racing, the 35-year-old Strandberg, of Bend, bounced from
Ellsbury Continued from D1 Also last season, Ellsbury tied a major-league record for outfielders with 12 putouts in a nine-inning game. He went on to extend his streak of consecutive games without an error to 232 (a total of 554 chances) before a misplay in a mid-June game ended the longest errorless streak by a Boston outfielder in franchise history. But the career center fielder was moved to left field this season after the Red Sox ac-

quired veteran Mike Cameron, a three-time Gold Glove winner who had patrolled center field for six other teams since he broke into the big leagues with the Chicago White Sox in 1995. Ellsbury’s playing time in spring training this season was limited by illness and a sore throwing shoulder. But he smacked two home runs against Tampa Bay on March 10, and he was in the starting lineup Saturday when the Red Sox closed the preseason portion of their schedule with a 61 victory over the Washington
Nationals. In 16 spring training games, Ellsbury collected 12 hits in 50 at-bats for an average of .240.
King, of Bend, races in the Masters Level 4 category, ages 45-49. “I lost the lead group (of men) and pretty much skied on my own,” said Strandberg. “When Susan is following, you’re not going to slow down. She is one tough lady.” Bend’s Evelyn Dong, 24, finished third among the women in the 30K in a time of 1:22:53. Men’s second- and thirdplace finishers in the 30K were Marshall Greene and Brayton Osgood, both 28 and both of Bend. Flora, Greene and Osgood — all representing XC Oregon, a Bend-based elite nordic ski team — finished within 20 seconds of one another. Greene’s time was 1:11:32, Osgood’s was 1:11:42. “This is probably one of the last nordic ski races of the year in the COUNTRY,” said Greene. “Most places don’t even have reliable snow this late in the year.” Green has competed in nearly 30 ski races all around the country and a few in Europe this ski season. “Sometimes it’s hard to know how you are going to feel this late into the year,” he said, “because you’re tired from so many races and all the travel.” Top finishers in the 15K were Samuel Curtis, of Corvallis, clocking in at 45:23.7, and Lindsey Voreis, of Bend (48:35.9). The overall winner of the 15K skijoring event — the skier is pulled by a dog — was Bend’s Berkley Leach (38:45.4). “It was fun to race locally,” said Flora. “And the Great Nordeen is a great event.” Katie Brauns can be reached at 541-383-0393 or at kbrauns@ bendbulletin.com.

Storylines Continued from D1 But here’s the kicker fact: One of these seven got his team into every World Series from 1988 through 2004, including four years when one managed against another. That’s amazing. “It has been a wonderful experience to be in the game at the same time as those other guys,” La Russa said this spring. “I’ve enjoyed every year, and I’m going to enjoy this year. You never know how a season is going to turn out. You know where you start, and that’s all you know. The fun is in the journey.” Is it telling the 2006 World Series, when the Cardinals beat the Tigers, marks the only time in the last five years that one of the legendary managers still was stand-
ing for the last dance? The baton seems to have been passed quietly to the new wave of proven managers — men like Terry Francona, Mike Scioscia, Charlie Manuel, Bruce Bochy and Ron Gardenhire. Will they and others among their contemporaries (say the Yankees’ Joe Girardi, the Rays’ Joe Maddon, the White Sox’s Ozzie Guillen) allow the future Hall of Famers to come out for bows after an encore or two?
Brawn and brain power There’s nothing like the first day of full workouts at Yankee camp to understand the mission facing 29 teams in trying to win a championship. The quick look around the clubhouse reveals all the familiar faces — the Jeters, the A-Rods and for the last two years also the CCs and
Texes — but the truly frightening thing in 2010 involves less familiar faces. Curtis Granderson was there. But so were Phil Hughes and Joba Chamberlain, along with top prospects Jesus Montero and Austin Romine. Young outfielder Brett Gardner not only was there, but he is in manager Joe Girardi’s plans. Not so long ago, the Yankees would have used the winter to sacrifice a Hughes or a Chamberlain to add a pitcher on the verge of free agency. But the next Yankee dynasty — one that extends beyond Jeter — is being built as much through traditional player development means as with money from the Steinbrenner vaults. General manager Brian Cashman runs an organization that is valuing its human assets as much as its financial resources, beginning with scout director Damon Oppenheimer.
“That’s a really scary organization now,” a rival GM said this spring. “They’ve always had the money but the only thing they thought about was the next season. Now they’re looking down the road, like smart teams do, and they have more money to spend than the rest of us.”
Surprise, surprise Anyone can pick the Yankees, Phillies, Red Sox and Cardinals to win, and just about everyone is. But which teams are the most likely to surprise in 2010? In order, they are: 1. Rays: Sports Illustrated is picking them to win the World Series, which wouldn’t be such a shock because they went there only two seasons back. But in this era anyone other than the Yankees
and Red Sox getting out of the AL East has to qualify as a surprise. An amazing fact about the Rays is they are investing only $9.47 million in their 2010 starting rotation. That ranks 29th in spending for starters, ahead of only the Blue Jays, according to Tim Dierkes’ study on mlbtraderumors.com. But Joe Maddon nevertheless has a rotation full of potential front-of-the-rotation guys in James Shields, Matt Garza, Jeff Niemann, David Price and rookie Wade Davis. Andy Sonnanstine, a key to the ’07 pennant, is an excellent No. 6 starter who opens the season in the bullpen. It’s a strong lineup too, with newcomers Sean Rodriguez and Kelly Shoppach giving Maddon more good options. Shortstop Jason Bartlett is better than most people realize. See Storylines / D7

gether, assuming youngsters Joey Votto, Jay Bruce and Drew Stubbs come out swinging. The Reds should have enough pitching to put together a winning season and perhaps to challenge the Cardinals for the NL Central title. They open the season with Arroyo, Harang, Johnny Cueto, Homer Bailey and either Travis Wood or Mike Leake in the rotation. They have the very impressive Cuban, Aroldis Chapman, in the wings, and hope to get Edinson Volquez back from Tommy John surgery by the All-Star break. They also made a smart move adding itinerant shortstop Orlando Cabrera. His teams win more often than not.

ball than the AL Central but none more competitive. Over the last five years, the Twins, White Sox, Tigers and Indians have all averaged 82-to-87 victories. Going back 10 years, the Twins (86.3), White Sox (85.7) and Indians (81.6) are separated by less than five victories a year. “Your goal is to become the behemoth,” Tigers GM Dave Dombrowski said. “You hope the competition drives you up to where you’re winning 95 games every year. That’s what you’re trying to win.”

years: “He has no weakness,” said someone who watched him throughout the Grapefruit League season. Heyward’s patience at the plate, and the way he seems to unsettle pitchers just by settling into the batter’s box, rarely has been seen with someone so young. “I like writing him into the lineup,” said Bobby Cox, and it was easy to see why as he had his on-base percentage and slugging averages hovering around .500 as the Braves were breaking camp for Atlanta. At some point this season, Heyward is likely to face two of the most intriguing pitching phenoms in recent years — the Nationals’ Stephen Strasburg and the Reds’ Aroldis Chapman. The pitchers are opening the season in the minors but aren’t likely to stay there long.

Plenty of stars chasing after leader Stupples By Bernie Wilson The Associated Press
RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. — Minutes before Karen Stupples teed off Saturday in the Kraft Nabisco Championship, caddie Jerry Woodard got in her face for a pep talk to try to calm her nerves. Stupples, who came into the round one shot behind Song-Hee Kim, said Woodard let her have it. “He said, ‘I know you’re nervous, you’re supposed to be nervous, this is what we’re here for. You’re playing great. Let’s go and do it. Let’s take it to the course. Rip the drive down the fairway.’” It worked. “I needed that routine,” said Stupples, who responded with a 4-under 68 at Mission Hills to take a one-stroke lead into the final round, with six other majors winners within seven shots. Stupples, the 36-year-old English star who won the 2004 Women’s British Open, had a 10under 206 total in the season’s first major. Today, she’ll be trying to stay ahead of a field that includes majors winners Suzann Pettersen, Yani Tseng, Lorena Ochoa, Karrie Webb, Kristie Kerr and Grace Park. Isn’t there a good chance Stupples will have a strong case of the nerves again? “Honestly, I don’t think they
can be any worse than they were this morning,” she said. “In a way, all it will do is make me get out there and enjoy it. Look who I’ve got chasing me. How could I not enjoy that? That’s called life. That’s fantastic. That’s more exciting than I can even tell.” Pettersen, the first-round leader who seemingly played herself out of contention with a 73 on Friday, and Tseng shot 67s to reach 9 under. Top-ranked Ochoa, who won this tournament two years ago, rebounded from a slow start with birdies on three of her last seven holes for a 71 to join second-round leader Kim (72) at 7 under. Webb (72), Kerr (74) and Park (69) also were in the top nine. Webb was alone at 5 under, Kerr was tied with Brittany Lang (69) at 4 under and Park was tied with five others, including Michelle Wie, at 3 under. Playing with Ochoa, Stupples started strong with four birdies and just one bogey on the front nine to go to 9 under. Ochoa, who came into the round tied for second, one shot behind Kim, had an uncharacteristically slow start of 2 over on the front nine. She didn’t make her first birdie until the par-14 12th. Stupples was fired up after rolling in a long birdie putt on
the par-3 17th, pumping her left fist four times. Ochoa also birdied No. 17, then birdied the par-5 18th to the delight of the crowd. Stupples said being paired with the popular Ochoa was “a pretty good atmosphere to play in. It was cool. Very cool.” Pettersen shot her second 67 of the tournament, with four of her six birdies coming on the back nine. “Just a few more fairways today than yesterday,” the Norwegian star said. “I put myself in good position to attack some of these pins. The course is drying up a little bit, so if you find the fairway somehow on the par 4s, you have fairly short clubs in your hands, so with certain pin positions, it feels like it’s a green light to attack. “It was a tough day yesterday, but I managed to hang in there and finish strong, and just continued to solid play today. So it’s going to be a fun day tomorrow.” Pettersen won the 2007 LPGA Championship. She has two top10 finishes in three starts this year but also was slowed by a hip injury. Pettersen has three straight top-five finishes in the tournament. “I’ve played a lot of good golf around this track,” she said. “Hitting the fairways sets up a lot on this golf course.”
GOLF: PGA TOUR
Kim, Molder tied heading into final round in Houston By Chris Duncan The Associated Press
HUMBLE, Texas — Anthony Kim never knew where his tee shots were going. Bryce Molder never got control of his swing. Both saved themselves with their short games Saturday and ended up tied for the third-round lead in the Houston Open. Kim missed 11 of 14 fairways, but relied on good putting to shoot a 3-under 69 that left him 10 under for the tournament. Molder, the second-round leader, made four bogeys and five birdies for a 71. “It was a tough day,” Molder said. “I just couldn’t quite find the club in my swing, and it was just a little off.” Vaughn Taylor (70) and Joe Ogilvie (71) were two strokes back at 8 under after both bogeyed the difficult 18th hole. Houston resident Jeff Maggert (70), Graham DeLaet (71) and Lee Westwood (72) were three strokes behind the leaders. The players faced only light breezes after wind gusted up to 30 mph during the first two rounds. The mild conditions couldn’t help Kim, who was hitting tee shots into trouble all day. “I don’t know what happened today,” Kim said. “Just spraying the ball off the tee, just hitting the worst shots I’ve hit probably this year.” Kim finished second to Camilo Villegas at the Honda Classic, one of three top-25 finishes this year. He hasn’t held or shared the third-round lead since last year’s Canadian Open, where he

Anthony Kim reacts as his birdie putt misses the cup during the third round of the Houston Open Saturday in Humble, Texas. Kim shot a 3-under par 69 and is tied for the lead at 10under par for the tournament. finished third. After three-plus years on the tour, Kim feels as if he’s matured enough to make smart decisions, when parts of his game are letting him down. “I’ve learned a lot from past experiences,” he said. “It gives me confidence that I’m getting the ball up and down from a lot of places I probably shouldn’t. That’s dangerous, because you don’t want to rely on that.”
Kim pulled a 300-yard drive on the par-4 12th hole, then flopped a wedge from an awkward stance within a foot with a pond lurking on the other side of the green. “I told my caddie, ‘If I don’t hit this perfectly, it’s going to go 50 yards in the water,’ ” Kim said. He hooked another tee shot on the 17th hole, then wedged out of the rough to three feet. Kim saved par from behind the green at No. 18, chipping down the hill and sinking an 8-footer. “There were some spots today, I don’t know how I got out,” he said. “But I was happy to go ahead and hit some lucky shots and good shots, and get away with it.” Molder hit his share of errant tee shots, too, after a solid 66 on Friday. He made three bogeys on the front nine, then birdied two of the first three holes on the back. He dunked his tee shot in the water on 18, then hit a 6-iron to 14 feet and made the putt for an unexpected par. Molder had seven one-putt greens on the back nine and a total of 26 putts in his round. “Luckily, my putter kind of held me in there,” Molder said. “I always kind of know that if I can just kind of get it going the direction I want it to go, then I’m usually going to be OK.” Molder, a four-time All-American at Georgia Tech, is winless in 88 career PGA Tour starts. He got to play Augusta National once a year when he was in college, but has never played in the Masters.
EUGENE — Oregon looked to have an early edge on topranked Arizona State, but the Ducks were held scoreless for the game’s final eight innings as the Sun Devils prevailed 7-3 at PK Park on Saturday afternoon. The Ducks moved to 19-10 on the season and 2-4 in the Pac-10, as No. 1 ASU won the weekend series 2-1, and improved to 25-1 on the year and 5-1 in conference play. The teams began the final game of the series at 1:07 p.m., Saturday afternoon, just over 12 hours after Friday night’s 12-inning thriller ended at 12:45 a.m., 6-5, in favor of UO. The Ducks struggled again defensively on Saturday, committing three errors, but it was ASU starter Jake Borup who recovered from a difficult first inning to hold Oregon scoreless through the seventh, allowing ASU’s offense to regain the lead. Starter Alex Keudell, 4-2, took the loss for the Ducks af-
ter allowing six runs — five earned — on seven hits and three walks. The Portland native struck out seven. Borup improved to 6-0, tossing seven innings and allowing three runs — all in the first inning — on six hits with one walk and four strikeouts. The Ducks also surrendered five stolen bases to ASU. On Friday night, Oregon handed Arizona State its first loss of the season. It was junior Marcus Piazzisi with the RBI single up the middle that scored freshman J.J. Altobelli in the bottom of the 12th inning that led to the victory. Altobelli was three-for-six with an RBI and two runs scored on the night. Oregon right-hander Zack Thornton was the sixth pitcher to see the mound for the Ducks, but the senior tossed three shutout innings, issuing only two walks while not surrendering a hit and striking out four, improving to 4-0 on the season. Oregon held a slight 4-3 lead
heading into the ninth, but that all evaporated in the top of the inning. The Ducks’ upset was temporarily wrenched away as Drew Gagnier came on for the close with a one-run lead. He issued a one-out walk to Drew Maggi and then surrendered a single to Zack MacPhee that landed just over the reach of UO second baseman Danny Pulfer. Gagnier struck out Kole Calhoun for out number two, but a passed ball on the strikeout allowed Maggi to score, and catcher Eddie Rodriguez’s throw to third in an effort to retire MacPhee was high, allowing the go-ahead run to score as ASU took a 5-4 lead. But redemption came quickly for Rodriguez, who led off the bottom of the ninth with a single. Rodriguez moved to second on a sacrifice bunt before a single through the right side allowed him to round third. He slid around catcher Austin Barnes, and tapped the plate with two fingers before Barnes was able to put the tag on.
Beavs beat Trojans on the road From wire reports LOS ANGELES — Sam Gaviglio scattered two runs over 5 1⁄3 in his first start of the season, and Kraig Sitton got out of a bases loaded jam in the ninth as the 21st-ranked Beavers posted a series-clinching victory over USC, 4-3, Saturday afternoon at Dedeaux Field. The Trojans managed to get the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth, and Sitton came on with two outs in the inning. He walked the first batter, pinch hitter Garret Houts, but then got Joe De Pinto swinging for his second save of the season. “This one went down to the wire and I’m proud of the way we hung on,” Oregon State head coach Pat Casey said. “That’s a good way to end the weekend,
and this is a tough ballpark to play in. It always has been for Oregon State, and this was a very good win.” The ninth-inning effort by Sitton saved Gaviglio’s outing, as the right-hander went 5 1⁄3 innings for his first win of the season. He allowed two runs and four hits while striking out four. He was replaced in the sixth by Matt Boyd, who came in and worked three innings of relief. He allowed two hits and a run while striking out two before being replaced by Kevin Rhoderick with one out in the ninth. Gaviglio and Boyd were sharp through the middle innings. Gaviglio allowed his last hit in the second inning, and the Trojans did not manage another until the seventh, as
Gaviglio and Boyd combined to retire 16 consecutive batters. The Beavers improved to 18-6 on the year and 2-1 in Pacific-10 Conference play as the Beavers claimed the three-game series, just their second all-time series win at Dedeaux Field — their first coming in 2004. USC, meanwhile, dropped to 14-14 overall and 2-4 in Pac-10 games. Oregon State returns home to face Portland in a midweek game on Tuesday. First pitch at Goss Stadium is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. PDT.

Bids shall be clearly labeled: 5TH STREET TREE PLANTING PROJECT. Scope of Work: The 5th Street Tree Planting Project consists of planting approximately 111 trees and installing irrigation emitters on existing irrigation piping. The City will provide the irrigation emitters, 18 each of Boulevard Linden and 4 each of Empire White Ash, all 4" caliper.

The City estimates the cost of improvements at $50,000. This project is broken into two phases. The first phase is to plant trees along 5th Street from Glacier Avenue north to Black Butte Avenue where tree wells are already completed. The second phase will require the coordination of work with Hooker Creek to plant trees in the tree wells under construction north of Black Butte to the North Y once the tree wells and irrigation are completed.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, APRIL 4, 2010
JOHN COSTA
As we near voting time, what’s the central idea?
A
n American politician of some note once said something very instructive: “Our government rests on public opinion.” “Public opinion, on any subject, always has a ‘central idea,’ from which all its minor thoughts radiate,” he added. That politician was Abraham Lincoln as he was beginning, according to the masterful biography by historian Michael Burlingame, to articulate his powerful opposition to slavery. “That ‘central idea’ in our political public opinion, at the beginning was, and until recently has continued to be, ‘the equality of men,’” Lincoln said. It may seem a little silly to suggest there is a Lincoln among our leaders or a Civil War in our future, even given the nastiness of American politics today. But Lincoln’s advice has meaning, particularly given the season and year we are now in. This is a big election year. There is a primary in May with candidate choices galore, not to mention a request for a $44 million jail expansion in Deschutes County. Ballots are scheduled to be mailed April 30 and must be returned by May 18, Election Day. November brings an even bigger election, with state offices, including for governor, up for election, as well as members of our congressional delegation. This will be the second major election since the beginning of this terrible recession we are in, and the first since health care reform was signed into law, and the first since Oregon raised taxes. Let’s stick to Oregon. With little more than a month to the primary, and just eight months left to complete this election cycle, wouldn’t you think someone with a clear voice would articulate a compelling “central idea?” Yet there isn’t one that is easy to detect, even given the gravity of the issues we face. Our governments — state and local — are on the ropes. We are running out of money to pay for the services they provide. I wish it weren’t true, but it is. It’s as simple as that. At the same time, we are chasing businesses out of the state through tax and regulatory policy. In other words, we can’t afford our dreams. Does anyone want to argue that this isn’t the central problem? So what is the “central idea” to attack this? Is it to reduce taxes? Or to reduce the size of the government? Is it to invest in higher education? Put everyone on a health care plan? Go green? In fact, depending on the politician and the interest group that may or may not get that person elected, all of these ideas are being batted around. These ideas come from well-meaning people, but, in fact, they are the ideas that have been out there through the past several elections. They have achieved a stale brand of immortality that simply doesn’t recognize the very scary state of the state. They are the reflections of old interest groups, tired slogans and exhausted rallying cries. We are on the edge, if we haven’t already crossed it, of losing the capacity to ask the right questions and advance the tough answers. What we have is an interesting reversal of Lincoln’s observation. He believed in a “central idea” from which all its minor thoughts radiate. We seem to have a host of ideas that radiate from no common core belief, and are enacted with no necessary connection to each other. When they conflict with each other or fail because there is no broad basis of support, the dissatisfaction with government and the political process only grows larger. In any case, it will be very interesting in this election season to see if anyone has a central idea and not just a grab bag of programs aimed at an electoral majority. John Costa is editor-in-chief of The Bulletin.

TIGER BUBBLE Barton Silverman / New York Times News Service file photo
The most well-known and lucrative athlete is in a tough spot, but can Tiger Woods keep the golfing world out of the rough? By Jonathan Mahler • New York Times Magazine
N
ot too long ago, 2010 was shaping up as a good year for Tiger Woods. After knee surgery in 2008, Woods returned to competitive golf in 2009 and logged six victories. He led the PGA Tour in prize winnings for the ninth time and was voted player of the year by his peers for the 10th time in his 14 years as a pro. Because of the fortuitous location of this year’s marquee tournaments, Woods seemed primed to approach and maybe even equal Jack Nicklaus’s record of 18 major championships. In addition to the Masters at Augusta, Ga., where Woods has won four times, the 2010 United States Open will be played in June at Pebble Beach, in California; in 2000, the last time it was played there, Woods won by 15 strokes. The British Open will be held in July at the Old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland, which has hosted the tournament twice in the last decade; Woods won both times, by a combined total of 13 strokes. But then November and December happened. Woods crashed his car on Thanksgiving weekend, and the collateral damage just kept mounting. Rarely
has an athlete tumbled as far and as fast as Tiger Woods. In an era in which stories about athletes behaving badly — gambling, using drugs, carrying weapons — barely stand out in the news, the revelations of Woods’ epic infidelities created a scandal of a whole different order, landing him day after day on the cover of The New York Post. In just a few weeks, an image that took more than a decade and untold millions to construct was destroyed. Like all great tabloid tales of falls from grace, this one was anchored in contradiction. The athlete who dominated a sport of discipline, focus and self-control — his father, an ex-military man, once compared him to Gandhi — was a sex junkie. Even as Woods’s sponsors quickly began to drop him, their advertisements lingered awkwardly throughout America: a life-size image of the world’s most famous philanderer greeted airport travelers over Accenture ad copy that read as if it had been written for the occasion: “Go on. Be a Tiger.” And “Opportunity isn’t always obvious.” The Great Undoing inevitably initiated a cottage industry of its own, including “Tail of the Tiger” golf balls with
pictures of his supposed mistresses. When he issued his public apology in February, Woods sounded as if he didn’t plan to return to golf anytime soon. But earlier this month there were reports that the former White House spokesman Ari Fleischer had been retained to help orchestrate Woods’s comeback. Soon after, Woods announced that he would be playing in the Masters, which begins Thursday. (Fleischer and Woods have since parted ways, according to The Associated Press and the Golf Channel.) As far as professional golf is concerned, Woods cannot come back fast enough. The PGA Tour is at a critical juncture. Next year it will begin negotiating new TV contracts with CBS and NBC. In the meantime, the tour is trying to secure sponsors for 10 events in 2011 while economic conditions are not exactly favorable. Two of the hardest-hit industries, financial services and car manufacturing, are responsible for underwriting one-third of the PGA Tour’s sponsored events. See Tiger Woods / F6

Chairwoman Publisher Editor-in-chief Editor of Editorials
DeBone, Barbeau for commission
I
f we based our endorsements exclusively upon experience, we’d urge Republicans to support incumbent Deschutes County Commissioners Dennis Luke and Tammy Baney.
However, because we endorse candidates who will best serve the interests of their constituents, we hope voters will choose challengers Tony DeBone and Ed Barbeau. Luke, the county’s longest-serving commissioner, has been on the job for nearly a dozen years. Prior to that, he served for six years in the state Legislature. He jokes that his long government service is both his biggest professional asset and his most significant drawback. He’s more right than he knows, and the drawback side of the ledger now dwarfs the asset side. One good way to judge elected officials is to follow what they do when the public isn’t watching closely. In this regard, the minutes of the county’s health plan advisory committee are invaluable. The Employee Benefits Advisory Committee, as it’s known, meets periodically to discuss covered procedures, claims and various other issues that arise when an entity self-insures, as Deschutes County does. Luke has sat in on these meetings regularly for years. In January 2008, County Administrator Dave Kanner, at the budget committee’s request, proposed an increase in monthly premium payments. County employees, even those with families, had paid a mere $35 per month, though their contracts allowed premiums as high as $65. The budget committee suggested a modest hike of $10 per month. And Kanner argued that “the current rate of $35 … bears no connection to the realities of the current health insurance market,” according to the minutes of that meeting, Luke responded that he and his fellow commissioners had rejected a similar request by Kanner the previous year. Meanwhile, pointing to the size of the health plan’s reserve, he indicated his continued reluctance to accept the hike. Never mind that the county had built up the reserve by pulling money from county departments. That trend, Kanner noted, forced departments “to take away money that they need to fund operations for the community.” More than two years later, the employee premium co-pay is still only $35 per month. Yet, said Luke recently, he’s reluctant to raise it because times are tough for county employees. Republicans should remember something when they open their ballots. Dennis Luke refused to allow a modest premium hike despite the wishes of a budget committee and despite the fact that union contracts allow it. In the meantime, his constituents have suffered through the worst recession in recent memory. If Luke can’t bring himself to make easy budget-tightening decisions, he isn’t likely to make tough ones. If that isn’t a good reason to look elsewhere for representation, what is? If this editorial seems like an unendorsement of Dennis Luke rather than an endorsement of Tony DeBone, that’s partially true. But DeBone is well qualified for the job. He and his wife own Little d Technology, a small business in La Pine that provides Web-de-
sign and computer-repair services. For nearly five years, meanwhile, he’s been on the board of the La Pine Park and Recreation District. DeBone is a bright, civic-minded guy who understands the pressures businesses face in Oregon. He’ll bring a much-needed perspective on the county commission. So, too, will Ed Barbeau, another small-business owner. Barbeau is both a private investigator specializing in workers compensation claims and the owner of Pisano’s Pizza in Bend. Barbeau, who’s running as a pro-business fiscal conservative, believes Tammy Baney missed her opportunity to correct problems “that don’t make sense to the average citizen.” Barbeau cites the county’s health plan, which is notable not only for its seemingly untouchable $35 premium, but also for its alternative care benefit. The county gives employees a $1,500 annual subsidy for treatments, like massages, that require no demonstration of medical need. For each treatment, the employee pays only $15 while the county contributes up to $45. Baney, who claims to be “very embarrassed” about such revelations, says she’ll squeeze the county’s dollars harder in the future. If given the chance, she might. In many ways, Baney has been a pleasant surprise since entering office three years ago. She’s not afraid to be the odd commissioner out, as she was in questioning the need to close the Wimp Way entrance to U.S. Highway 97. Of the three sitting commissioners, in fact, she’s the one who most deserves her job. Ultimately, however, Barbeau’s right. Baney, like Luke, had the opportunity to drive some fiscal responsibility into the county’s health plan and did not. Promising to do better simply isn’t good enough. Meanwhile, voters have reason to question Baney’s consistency. Prior to the Republican primary in 2006, Baney supported the adoption of a home rule charter for Deschutes County. She ultimately opposed the charter sent to voters that fall, which would have made commission positions part-time. Baney believes commissioners should serve full time, though this encourages the kind of micromanaging for which they’ve been criticized justly in the past. Deschutes County residents deserve representatives who respect both the needs of county employees and the economic conditions that apply to everyone else, especially the small businesses that provide the jobs and economic development Deschutes County so desperately needs. For that reason, Republicans should choose Tony DeBone and Ed Barbeau. You can’t effect change by re-electing people who failed to correct obvious problems when they had the chance.

The Guttmacher Institute says 215 million women in developing countries who want to avoid pregnancy are not using an effective method of contraception, up from 201 million a few years ago. Keeping families small, on average, is vital. Joseph Chamle, the former director of the United Nations Population Division, says that with increases in population the world is going to see increased competition for resources, food shortages, and water. It is a well-known fact that a high rate of population growth in a poor country often leads to political trouble and violence when there aren’t enough food or jobs. With universal worldwide access to family planning and maternal newborn health services: • Unintended pregnancies would decline by more than two-thirds. • Abortions would fall about 22 million yearly. • The deaths of nearly 400,000 women and 1.6 million infants would be prevented every year.

Voters should step up While allowing corporations and unions unlimited campaign spending to influence elections is repugnant to
many, reality is that corporations and unions do not cast a single ballot. If we, the voters, prudently accepted our individual responsibilities and made a concerted effort to do our homework and sort through the deceptive corporation and union sound-bite and bumper-sticker ads; if we refused to become disciples of the vile ranting talking heads (who, just like corporations and unions, seek to pad their own bank accounts); if we were more concerned about the truth than about a candidate’s political label — it wouldn’t matter how much money vested interests and lobbyists donated to campaigns. But money clouds judgment and it takes just too much effort to be responsible for our choices. It’s more stylish to look elsewhere to place blame, while the fact is we elected all the politicians about whom we so selfrighteously complain. Skip Harvey Bend
Trim the pork Pork is pork, and that is what earmarks are. This is a word that our fearless politicians and weak leaders have created to hide the word pork from us, the taxpayers. The city of Bend and Deschutes County officials are asking and waiting for pork money from the federal government to help with useless projects. We are in a recession, people are out of work, and here our local leaders are waiting for money to waste on unimportant projects. Wake up, local leaders, and realize that this free money from the federal government is really taxpayer money.
We taxpayers are always asked to pay for your foolish decisions and pie-inthe-sky projects. Why don’t you local leaders step up to the plate and tell the federal government we don’t need or want your earmarks money. We will provide for ourselves with better smart budgeting and spending. You can’t spend more then you make. Come on, taxpayers, and help me support this initiative. Thomas O’Brien Redmond
No more party of no I am so old that I remember a time when both houses of Congress had a majority party and a party in loyal opposition. Sometimes one party dominated both houses and sometimes not. It did not matter so much which party was the majority party as there was always the loyal opposition to counteract excessive actions. There was no party of NO, just a loyal opposition which worked with the majority party. I think this is what the American people want, and it is obvious that President Obama tried to re-establish this traditional bipartisanship. Not a single Republican believed that the then-current health rules were economically sustainable, and yet they were unwilling to do anything other than dictate their personal views. Actually they did make some contributions to the health bill that passed but now seem unwilling to admit it. I hope we can get back to the situation of a majority party and a loyal opposition.

Should there be an inquisition for the pope? Perhaps I MAUREEN WASHINGTON — t doesn’t seem right that the Catholic Church is spending Holy Week practicing the unholy art of spin. Complete with crown-of-thorns imagery, the church has started an Easter public relations blitz defending a pope who went along with the perverse culture of protecting molesters and the church’s reputation rather than abused — and sometimes disabled and disadvantaged — children. The church gave up its credibility for Lent. Holy Thursday and Good Friday are now becoming Cover-Up Thursday and Blame-Others Friday. This week of special confessions and penance services is unfolding as the pope resists pressure from Catholics around the globe for his own confession and penance about the cascade of child sexual abuse cases that were ignored, even by a German diocese and Vatican office he ran. If church fundraising and contributions dry up, Benedict’s PR handlers may yet have to stage a photo-op where he
steps out of the priest’s side of the confessional and enters the side where the rest of his fallible flock goes. Canon 1404 states that “The First See is judged by no one.” But Jesus, Mary and Joseph, as my dad used to say. Somebody has to tell the First See when it’s blind — and mute — to deaf children in America and Italy. The Vatican is surprised to find itself in this sort of trouble. Officials there could have easily known what was going on all along; archbishops visiting Rome gossip like a sewing circle. The cynical Vatican just didn’t want to deal with it. And now the church continues to hide behind its mystique. Putting down the catechism, it picked up the Washington PR handbook for political sins. First: Declare any new revelation old and unimportant. At Palm Sunday Mass at St. Patrick’s, Archbishop Timothy Dolan of New York bemoaned that the “recent tidal wave of headlines about abuse of minors by some few priests, this time in Ireland, Ger-
DOWD
many, and a re-run of an old story from Wisconsin, has knocked us to our knees once again.” A few priests? At this point, it feels like an international battalion. Second: Blame somebody else — even if it’s this pope’s popular predecessor, on the fast track to sainthood. Vienna’s Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn defended Pope Benedict this week, saying that then-Cardinal Ratzinger’s attempt in 1995 to investigate the former archbishop of Vienna for allegedly molesting youths in a monastery was barred by advisers close to Pope John Paul II. Third: Say black is white. In his blog, Archbishop Dolan blasted
church critics while stating: “The Church needs criticism; we want it; we welcome it; we do a good bit of it ourselves,” adding: “We do not expect any special treatment. … so bring it on.” Right. Fourth: Demonize gays, as Karl Rove did in 2004. In an ad in The New York Times on Tuesday, Bill Donohue, the Catholic League president, offered this illumination: “The Times continues to editorialize about the ‘pedophilia crisis,’ when all along it’s been a homosexual crisis. Eighty percent of the victims of priestly sexual abuse are male and most of them are post-pubescent. While homosexuality does not cause predatory behavior, and most gay priests are not molesters, most of the molesters have been gay.” Donohue is still talking about the problem as an indiscretion rather than a crime. Fifth: Blame the victims. “Fr. Lawrence Murphy apparently began his predatory behavior in Wisconsin in the 1950s,” Donohue protested, “yet the victims’ families never contacted the po-
lice until the mid-1970s.” Sixth: Throw gorilla dust. Donohue asserts that “the common response of all organizations, secular as well as religious,” to abuse cases “was to access therapy and reinstate the patient.” Really? Where in heaven’s name does that information come from? It’s absurd. And finally, seventh: Use the Cheney omnipotence defense, most famously employed in the Valerie Plame case. Vice President Cheney claimed that his lofty position meant that the very act of spilling a secret, even with dastardly intent, declassified it. Vatican lawyers will argue in negligence cases brought by abuse victims that the pope has immunity as a head of state and that bishops who allowed an abuse culture, endlessly recirculating like dirty fountain water, were not Vatican employees. Maybe they worked for Enron. Maureen Dowd is a columnist for The New York Times.

O Pacific war should not be forgotten S
ixty-five years ago, on April 1, 1945, the United States Marines, Army and Navy invaded Okinawa. The ensuing three months of combat resulted in the complete defeat and near destruction of imperial Japanese forces on the island just 340 miles from the mainland. The victory proved the most costly American campaign in the Pacific. Some 50,000 Americans were killed, missing or wounded. The incredible carnage would help persuade the American government to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, in hopes of avoiding an even more horrific invasion of the mainland. Okinawa and the war in the Pacific are back in the news these days with the airing of a 10-part HBO series, “The Pacific” — a companion story to the 2001 series “Band of Brothers” about the American advance from Normandy across the Rhine into Germany. But recently in hyping “The Pacific’s” upcoming airing, the actor Tom Hanks, co-producer of the fine new HBO series, made some unfortunate — and ahistorical — remarks. “Back in World War II,” Hanks said, “we viewed the Japanese as ‘yellow, slant-eyed dogs’ that believed in different gods. They were out to kill us because our way of living was different. We, in turn, wanted to annihilate them because they were different.” Yet the Pacific war was about far
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON more than being “different.” Indeed, before and after the war, race was not a determining factor in American and Japanese relations. The two nations in World War I were partners against the Germans and Austrians. And during World War II itself, we joined Chinese, Koreans, Filipinos and other Asians to stop Japanese aggression — often fueled by its own particular notion of Japanese racial superiority. In the aftermath of World War II, the Americans helped rebuild Japan, and once more were allied with it against the communist Soviet Union. And despite the deplorable internment of Japanese nationals and American citizens of Japanese descent during the war, racial difference still does not in itself account for the horror in the Pacific — or why we were there in the first place. We entered the war, of course, because of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor — which angered Americans even more than Hitler’s aggression in Europe. Nazi barbarity for over two years had still not provoked the United States to enter the
war — given that none of our own territory had been attacked, much less in surprise fashion at a time of peace. Conditions on the battlefield in the Pacific most certainly account for the horror of the war there. For starters, Japanese militarists had updated the old samurai code of Bushido and grafted it to a modern industrial military dictatorship — brainwashing millions into thinking individual surrender on the battlefield was tantamount to national disgrace. Italian and even fanatical German forces might give up when surrounded. In contrast, campaigns in the Pacific ended only when the vast majority of Japanese soldiers were killed or severely wounded. Logistics for the American force were also strained, given the vast distances across the Pacific. Tropical diseases were like nothing encountered in Europe. While most Americans had heard of Sicily, Italy and France, most did not know what — much less where — a distant Guadalcanal, Peleliu or Iwo Jima was. The invasion fleet off Normandy Beach did not have to worry about airborne Nazi suicide bombers — in the manner that Kamikaze attacks off Okinawa killed thousands of American seamen. American tactical bombing, massive artillery barrages and armor thrusts were often less successful in the Pacific
than in Europe, given the dense jungle, rough terrain and nature of island fighting. The result was often that combat was reduced to hand-to-hand and smallarms fighting between U.S. Marines and crack Japanese imperial troops, hardened from brutal service of a prior decade in China. Given all these obstacles, it now seems incredible that an America that was half-armed in 1941 defeated Japan and utterly destroyed the idea of Japanese militarism in less than four years — a feat attributable in large part to the amazing courage and expertise of American soldiers. The war in the Pacific was not about racism or because Japanese “were different,” much less because two nations had equally justifiable grievances against each other. Instead, the brutal Pacific war was about ending an expansionary Japanese fascism that sought to destroy all democratic obstacles in its path. And we are indebted today to the relatively few Americans who once stopped it in horrific places like Okinawa — some 65 years ago.

L
ast summer President Obama told me that once health reform became law, he could pivot to the “broader structural changes” needed to bring the federal deficit under control. Without health reform, he said during a July telephone interview, there would be no hope for fiscal reform. With it, he would be in a position to “start laying out a broader picture about how we are going to handle entitlements in a serious way.” Well, it’s been a week since he signed the bill, and he still hasn’t saved Social Security. Just kidding. We can give him another day or two. But the long-term threat is no joke, as Obama has acknowledged many times. If Obama does not pivot, the country will be in serious trouble. Why? According to a Congressional Budget Office analysis published last week, Obama’s budget plan has the government spending one-quarter of the national economy (25.2 percent of gross domestic product) 10 years from now, while collecting revenue that’s less than one-fifth (19.6 percent). Such a gap isn’t sustainable for any country. The United States would have to borrow so much money that in interest alone the government would be spending 4.1 percent of GDP — compared with 1.4 percent this year. Other programs — for defense, for the poor, for national parks, for everything — would be squeezed more and more. The United States would be increasingly at the mercy of China, Saudi Arabia and other lenders.
“I understand why a deficit hawk would be nervous,” Obama told me last July. “I’m nervous about this. And if you talk to my senior advisers, they’ll tell you I’m on them every day about how are we going to make sure that we’re positioning ourselves to take care of this long term.” But if he’s talking with his advisers, Obama hasn’t begun to prepare Americans for what such positioning will take. Here’s one measure of the challenge: The president touts health reform in part because it will reduce the deficit — according to the CBO, by $143 billion in the next 10 years. That sounds pretty good, until you consider that Obama would need the equivalent of 70 additional health bills to undo the $9.8 trillion that his budgets will add to the deficit during the next 10
years, according to the CBO. (Actually, it would take something like 220 health care bills of deficit reduction, because the true savings from health care are more like $44 billion, once you subtract $70 billion in premiums that people will pay for long-termcare insurance and $29 billion they will pay into the Social Security trust fund, all of which will have to be paid out later. But either way, it’s a frightening picture.) What will it take? The government will have to spend less and tax more. The Bush tax cuts should be allowed to expire this year, as the law was written. The gasoline tax should be higher. Retirement ages need to be gradually pushed back. People who don’t need as much help shouldn’t receive full Medicare benefits. And so forth. There are no secrets here.

DAVID BROOKS teams of researchers have been studying happiness. Their work, which seemed flimsy at first, has developed an impressive rigor, and one of the key findings is that, just as the old sages predicted, worldly success has shallow roots while interpersonal bonds permeate through and through. For example, the relationship between happiness and income is complicated, and after a point, tenuous. It is true that poor nations become happier as they become middle-class nations. But once the basic necessities have been achieved, future income is lightly connected to wellbeing. Growing countries are slightly less happy than countries with slower growth rates, according to Carol Graham of the Brookings Institution and Eduardo Lora. The United States is much richer than it was 50 years ago, but this has produced no measurable increase in overall happiness. On the other hand, it has become a much more unequal country, but this inequality doesn’t seem to have reduced national happiness.
On a personal scale, winning the lottery doesn’t seem to produce lasting gains in well-being. People aren’t happiest during the years when they are winning the most promotions. Instead, people are happy in their 20s, dip in middle age and then, on average, hit peak happiness just after retirement at age 65. People get slightly happier as they climb the income scale, but this depends on how they experience growth. Does wealth inflame unrealistic expectations? Does it destabilize settled relationships? Or does it flow from a virtuous cycle in which an interesting job produces hard work that in turn leads to more interesting opportunities? If the relationship between money and well-being is complicated, the correspondence between personal relationships and happiness is not. The daily activities most associated with happiness are sex, socializing after work and having dinner with others. The daily activity most injurious to happiness is commuting. According to one study, joining a group that meets even just once a month produces the same happiness gain as doubling your income. According to another, being married produces a psychic gain equivalent to more than $100,000 a year. The overall impression from this research is that economic and professional success exists on the surface of life, and
T
that they emerge out of interpersonal relationships, which are much deeper and more important. The second impression is that most of us pay attention to the wrong things. Most people vastly overestimate the extent to which more money would improve our lives. Most schools and colleges spend too much time preparing students for careers and not enough preparing them to make social decisions. Most governments release a ton of data on economic trends but not enough on trust and other social conditions. In short, modern societies have developed vast institutions oriented around the things that are easy to count, not around the things that matter most. They have an affinity for material concerns and a primordial fear of moral and social ones. This may be changing. There is a rash of compelling books — including “The Hidden Wealth of Nations” by David Halpern and “The Politics of Happiness” by Derek Bok — that argue that public institutions should pay attention to wellbeing and not just material growth narrowly conceived. Governments keep initiating policies they think will produce prosperity, only to get sacked, time and again, from their spiritual blind side. David Brooks is a columnist for The New York Times.

So what’s the administration’s plan? The president appointed a bipartisan commission last month to study the matter. Until it reports — after the November elections — officials hope to do not much at all. Obama and just about everyone in Congress favor extending the Bush tax cuts for all but the wealthy; that alone will cost $2.5 trillion over the next 10 years. The truth is almost no politicians are honest about what’s needed. Republicans talk a good game now on deficits but were wildly irresponsible while they were in control. Democrats aren’t about to give them an opening by raising their hands first to propose unpopular spending cuts or tax hikes. Last summer I asked the president how he could overcome such inertia, given the almost impossible politics of deficit control. He suggested that events might jump-start the politics, when lenders start to fret about the creditworthiness even of the United States. “I actually think that, sadly, decisions are going to be forced upon us,” he said. “I mean, I think that if we don’t show that we’re serious in some fashion, then I think you’re going to see a reluctance on the part of people who’ve been snapping up Treasurys to keep doing so. … And that, in some sense, will — certainly compels me, if I’m being responsible in my office, to push hard on this.” Obama scrapped and cajoled and persisted, and he got his health care reform. When he pivots to fiscal reform, as promised, he may look back to health care as the easy one. Fred Hiatt is The Washington Post’s editorial page editor.
Clarifying the Sandra Bullock happiness trade wo things happened to Sandra Bullock this month. First, she won an Academy Award for Best Actress. Then came the news reports claiming that her husband is an adulterous jerk. So the philosophic question of the day is: Would you take that as a deal? Would you exchange a tremendous professional triumph for a severe personal blow? On the one hand, an Academy Award is nothing to sneeze at. Bullock has earned the admiration of her peers in a way very few experience. She’ll make more money for years to come. She may even live longer. Research by Donald Redelmeier and Sheldon Singh has found that, on average, Oscar winners live nearly four years longer than nominees that don’t win. Nonetheless, if you had to take more than three seconds to think about this question, you are absolutely crazy. Marital happiness is far more important than anything else in determining personal well-being. If you have a successful marriage, it doesn’t matter how many professional setbacks you endure, you will be reasonably happy. If you have an unsuccessful marriage, it doesn’t matter how many career triumphs you record, you will remain significantly unfulfilled. This isn’t just sermonizing. This is the age of research, so there’s data to back this up. Over the past few decades,
This time we really mean it he New York Times carried a very troubling article on the front page on Monday. It detailed how President Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan had invited Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, to Kabul — in order to stick a thumb in the eye of the Obama administration — after the White House had rescinded an invitation to Karzai to come to Washington because the Afghan president had gutted an independent panel that had discovered widespread fraud in his re-election last year. The article, written by two of our best reporters, Dexter Filkins and Mark Landler, noted that “according to Afghan associates, Karzai recently told lunch guests at the presidential palace that he believes the Americans are in Afghanistan because they want to dominate his country and the region, and that they pose an obstacle to striking a peace deal with the Taliban.” The article added about Karzai: “‘He has developed a complete theory of American power,’ said an Afghan who attended the lunch and who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retribution. ‘He believes that America is trying to dominate the region, and that he is the only one who can stand up to them.’” That is what we’re getting for risking thousands of U.S. soldiers and having spent $200 billion already. This news is a flashing red light, warning that the Obama team is violating at least three cardinal rules of Middle East diplomacy. Rule No. 1: When you don’t call things by their real name, you always get in trouble. Karzai brazenly stole last year’s presidential election. But the Obama foreign policy team turned a blind eye, basically saying, he’s the best we could get, so just let it go. See dictionary for Vietnam: Air Marshal Nguyen Cao Ky. When you can steal an election, you can steal anything. How will we get this guy to curb corruption when his whole election, and previous tour in office, were built on corruption? How can we be operating a clear, build-and-hold strategy that depends on us bringing good governance to Afghans when the head of the government is so duplicitous? Our envoy in Kabul warned us of this before the election, but in his case, too, we were told to look the other way. On Nov. 6, the ambassador, Karl Eikenberry, wrote to Washington in a cable that was leaked: “President Karzai is not an adequate strategic partner,” he warned. “Karzai continues to shun responsibility for any sovereign burden, whether defense, governance or development. He and much of his circle do not want the U.S. to leave and are only too happy to see us invest further. They assume we covet their territory for a never-ending ‘war on terror’ and for military bases to use against surrounding powers.” One reason you violate Rule No. 1 is because you’ve already violated Rule No. 2: “Never want it more than they do.” If we want good governance in Afghanistan more than Karzai, he will sell us that carpet over and over. How many U.S. officials have flown to Kabul — the latest being President Barack Obama himself — to lecture Karzai on the need to root out corruption in his administration? Do we think he has a hearing problem? Or do we think he believes he has us over a barrel and, in the end, he can and will do whatever serves his personal power needs because he believes that we believe that he is indispensable for confronting al-Qaida? Which leads to Rule No. 3: In the Middle East, what leaders tell you in private in English is irrelevant. All that matters is what they will defend in public in their own language. When Karzai believes that the way to punish America for snubbing him is by inviting Iran’s president to Kabul — who delivered a virulently anti-U.S. speech from inside the presidential palace — you have to pay close attention to that. It means Karzai must think that antiAmericanism plays well on the streets of Afghanistan and that by dabbling in it himself — as he did during his presidential campaign — he will strengthen himself politically. That is not a good sign. We have thousands of U.S. troops on the ground in Afghanistan and more heading there. Love it or hate it, we’re now deep in it, so you have to want our engagement there to build something that is both decent and self-sustaining — so we can get out. But I still fear that Karzai is ready to fight to the last U.S. soldier. And once we clear, hold and build Afghanistan for him, he is going to break our hearts.

SEATTLE — Sig Hansen admits this: He doesn’t read a lot of books. And the idea of doing one himself sounded like more trouble than this “Deadliest Catch” skipper could tolerate, even though people around him had been suggesting it for years. But once a publicist connected Hansen, who lives in Shoreline, Wash., just north of Seattle, with Montana-based outdoor writer Mark Sundeen, things fell into place. “Basically, all I had to do is open my mouth and talk,” said Hansen. “How hard is that?” Apparently, not too hard. Their collaboration, “North by Northwestern: A Seafaring Family on Deadly Alaskan Waters” is to be released this week by St. Martin’s Press (304 pp., $25.99). Viewers of “Deadliest Catch,” starting its sixth season April 13 on the Discovery Channel, know that Hansen is seldom at a loss for words, whether he’s complaining about the Bering Sea weather, sparring with fellow skippers or urging his crew members to pull another line of crab pots even though they’ve been at it 30 straight hours. “This is what we do,” says Hansen, 43. “It’s either this or flip burgers.” Given Hansen’s hard-driving style, it’s conceivable he would have made a rather formidable burger-flipper, if life had pointed him that direction. But would he have fans in 150 countries — and have made guest appearances with Jay Leno, Conan O’Brien, Jimmy Kimmel, Jim “Mad Money” Cramer and each of the Stewarts — Martha and Jon? Would his work have inspired a product line that includes coffee mugs, mouse pads, fish sticks, a Rogue ale and an X-box video game? Likely not. In the pages of “North by Northwestern,” readers will learn of the heritage that led Hansen and his younger brothers, Norman and Edgar, to a life on Alaskan waters. When his grade-school classmates were learning their ABCs, Sigurd Johnny Hansen was drawing fishing boats with swirls of black coming out of their smokestacks. Though the media may portray today’s “Deadliest Catch” fishermen as tough, Hansen insists, “You ain’t seen nothing. You should have seen my dad ... my granddad, my Uncle Karl, and all the men who came over from Norway or ventured north from Seattle to pioneer the crab industry long before cable television, GPS, satellite phones and computer depth finders and plotters. Hell, they were doing it in wooden boats.” Like many of his countrymen, Sverre (Svare-ee) Hansen, Sig’s father, settled in Ballard, epicenter of Seattle’s Scandinavian heritage. That’s where Sig was born in 1966.

Using the tenets of the private-eye novel and the Windy City’s mean streets, Wiley delivers a tidy, gritty tale about the legacy of violence, greed and family ties. Although Wiley occasionally strays into P.I. cliches, the author still shows his affinity for melding plot and character in “The Bad Kitty Lounge.” What should be a simple matter of proving marital infidelity quickly evolves into a firestorm that ignites generations-old secrets. Joe is photographing his client Greg Samuelson’s wife in a compromising situation with local developer Eric Stone when Greg shows up and torches Eric’s car. Soon after Greg is found severely wounded near his murdered boss, Sister Judy Terrano, an activist nun whose preaches
celibacy to inner-city girls. Joe has no intention of looking into the nun’s murder until an elderly civil rights activist’s violent grandsons threaten him to stay off the case. Joe can’t resist the challenge. The case points him back to the 1960s, a party house called the Bad Kitty Lounge and a past that no nun should have. The investigation also leads him to the equally violent offspring of a Chicago power broker. Wiley expertly shows myriad complex relationships and the motives behind violent behavior in “The Bad Kitty Lounge.” But Wiley succumbs to a cliche common to many private-eye novels. His hero doesn’t call the police when he should and puts everyone in jeopardy by racing to the rescue. The private eye is an allegory for the errant knight who rushes in without thinking. But this is the 21st century. In the age of cell phones and instant messaging, Wiley’s reliance on this dated technique slightly mars his novel. Still, “The Bad Kitty Lounge” moves at a brisk pace as it illustrates the worst in family behavior.

it took to navigate the grocery store. In first grade, Sig was sent home with a note reading, “Teach him English. Stop speaking Norwegian.” Even today, Hansen speaks Norwegian at home with his wife, June, and his stepdaughters, Nina, 18, and Mandy, 14, and walks in Ballard’s annual Norwegian Constitution Day Parade in May. And at least once a year, the family makes a visit to Norway, and in particular, to the island of Karmoy, which produced not only the Hansens’ parents, but the women Sig and Edgar Hansen married. Norman Hansen is single. Each of the three Hansen brothers owns an equal stake in the Northwestern, but as maritime tradition dictates, Captain Sig is boss on board. That doesn’t stop Edgar, 39, the cutup in the family, from complaining to the Discovery Channel cameras about “Psycho Sig.” Norman Hansen, 42, the

shy brother, usually stays out of view. The Hansens knock on wood each time they say that the Northwestern, the 1977-vintage, Seattle-built fishing boat they inherited from their father, has had no fatalities, permanent injuries or major mishaps. Sverre Hansen wasn’t as fortunate with his earlier boat, the wooden Foremost, which burned and sank in the Bering Sea in 1969, leaving Hansen and his three-man crew bobbing in stormy waters for hours until another fishing boat came to their aid. Each chapter of “North by Northwestern” opens with an installment in the story of the Foremost’s harrowing end. Sverre Hansen died of a heart attack in 2001, years before “Deadliest Catch” turned his sons into folk heroes. What Sverre Hansen might have thought of the showbiz side of the Northwestern isn’t clear to Sig, who himself is amazed the series has lasted this long. “When we did it that first time, we figured OK, we’ll do this as a nice tribute to our industry, to our family, and that will be it. But from there it just kept going.”
‘Caught’ a taut thriller that’s based on reality “Caught” by Harlan Coben (Dutton, 416 pgs., $27.95)
By Oline H. Cogdill (Florida) Sun Sentinel
Families are fraught with drama, misunderstandings and treacherous behavior — all because of the people we love, or should love, the most. Harlan Coben’s family thrillers touch us where we live, exploring emotions and fears that are quite believable. For many, a private detective novel or a police procedural is akin to fantasy, but Coben’s stories are reality. Coben’s eighth family thriller — and his 17th novel — continues his high standards. “Caught” works as a personal story about families, a cautionary tale about parents manipulating their children and how a mediasavvy world can mean a loss of privacy and quick judgments. But “Caught” also is a taut thriller that doesn’t let go until the last page. We’ve all seen those “catching a predator” shows in which a sleazy man walks in the door, planning to have

sex with an underage boy or girl with whom they’ve been in touch over the Internet. And the man’s very presence suggests guilt. But what if the man was innocent, and he has come not for sex but to rescue a child he thinks is in danger? That’s why social worker Dan Mercer has come to a strange neighborhood in the middle of the night. Dan, who works with troubled teens, thinks he’s come to save a 13-year-old from sexual abuse. Instead, he’s been set up by television reporter Wendy Tynes, whose program “Caught in the Act” exposes sexual predators. But Dan is no pedophile and, unlike most of the men who stick around to talk to the camera, he runs. Still, Dan is believed guilty, especially because a 17-year-old girl recently disappeared from his New Jersey neighborhood. To say more would spoil the amazing twists and turns that Coben brings to his plot. “Caught” has no lack of surprises.

F6 Sunday, April 4, 2010 • THE BULLETIN
Continued from F1 More to the point, the entire economic model of a golf tournament is looking a bit suspect. At the moment, the value of a company’s flying clients and employees to a sunny locale to drink Grey Goose cocktails and get tips on their short games from professional golfers is most likely to be lost on many of its shareholders. In other words, drumming up new sponsors and increasing — or just maintaining, really — the worth of its TV deals would have been hard enough for the tour even if the world’s greatest golfer and most recognizable athlete had not become enmeshed in the biggest tabloid story in years. “Maybe I shouldn’t say this, but in the last couple of years the tour has been aware of the fact that the negotiations of TV contracts and sponsorships are coming up, and in advising us on what to do, the one thing they’ve said is that we need the superstars to play more and no scandals, no controversies,” Harrison Frazar, a veteran of the PGA Tour, told me a couple of months ago. “Well, it’s unfortunate that what’s happened right now is the ultimate scandal in the history of professional golf, and it’s happened to the absolute wrong person.” Woods’ return to competitive golf will, of course, be huge. The questions are endless and irresistible. Will his wife, Elin, be there? What about his mom? What will happen when Woods is standing over his first big putt? Will his legendary ability to focus, honed from an early age by his father’s Green Beret mind tricks, block out the knowledge that the tens of millions of people watching think he’s a cheater and a cad? Will we even want him to sink that putt? The same scandal that has battered professional golf for the past several months will now drive new levels of interest in it. Even before Woods announced that he was coming back, Sean McManus, the president of CBS News and Sports, which holds the broadcast rights to the Masters and numerous other PGA Tour events, was quoted as saying, “I think the first tournament Tiger Woods plays again, wherever it is, will be the biggest media event other than the Obama inauguration in the past 10 or 15 years.” Woods will certainly remain a news story for the foreseeable future, but will he remain a golf story? For years, Woods fueled a frenzy of investment in the game — from corporate sponsors, advertisers, broadcasters, clothing and equipment manufacturers, even golf-course developers. It was, you could say, a classic economic bubble, the Tiger Bubble. The question now is whether Woods’ crash will end up being just a temporary correction for golf or if the bubble has truly burst. Even if he does manage to dominate his sport again, will investors return to an enterprise whose fortunes have seemed so inextricably linked to a single brand?
Without Tiger To see what professional golf looks like without Tiger Woods, I attended the 2010 Farmers Insurance Open in January. The tournament is held at Torrey Pines Golf Course, whose 36 holes are perched spectacularly atop a set of 300-foot cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean in La Jolla, Calif. The event marks the unofficial start of every PGA Tour season. Three tournaments precede it, but it’s the first one televised by a major network (CBS). Not coincidentally, it’s also where Woods traditionally opens his golf season. Woods has a long history at Torrey Pines. Not only did he experience some memorable amateur victories there, but the course was also the site of his unforgettable 19-hole playoff win in the 2008 U.S. Open, which he played on a torn-up knee and a fractured leg. This year, as the tournament unfolded, Woods was reportedly being treated for sex addiction at a clinic in Hattiesburg, Miss., but reminders of him were everywhere. His photograph graced the gallery of past winners ringing the practice green over a long string of dates. (Only one other golfer has won the tournament as many as three times; Woods has done so six times.) One afternoon, an airplane hired by a local strip club flew overhead, trailing a banner that read, “WE MISS YOU TOO, TIGER! DREAMGIRLS.” Without Woods, the tournament’s field was disappointing: Only three of the world’s top 20 golfers were there. At least golf’s second-biggest star, Phil Mickelson, was on hand. The day before the first round, he came by the media tent for a Q&A with the press and began by saying that he wouldn’t be answering any questions about Woods. Never-
theless, the subject proved impossible to ignore. When asked by one reporter whether he felt as if he needed to fill the void left by Woods, Mickelson replied, “I haven’t thought about it like that.” Mickelson paused, then completed the thought: “Nobody will be able to fill the shoes that are voided right now.” Just as Michael Jordan inspired a flood of foreign players to seek their fortunes in the National Basketball Association, Woods helped globalize the PGA Tour. When he first went pro in 1996, 26 of the tour’s 200 active members were not Americans; today the PGA Tour has 77 foreign golfers from 21 countries.
Leader of an empire All economic bubbles begin with a fervent faith in the transformative potential of something. As the bubble inflates, demand grows and the optimism of the early evangelists becomes contagious, converting more believers and steamrolling scrutinizers and cynics. But at some point the momentum shifts. Economic reality quickly catches up with the pervasive overconfidence that first set the bubble aloft, and it bursts. This was essentially the trajectory of the Tiger Bubble, only the boom was fueled not by a new technology or financial instrument but by an athlete who shattered almost every existing assumption about his sport. The expectation was that Woods would single-handedly alter the future of golf. Culturally, he would redeem the sport’s racist history, blot out its stuffy, country-club image and infuse it with Nike cool. Economically, he would give golf the stature of a major sport while raising the levels of fan participation in the game. The financial prospectors were circling Woods long before his first win on the PGA Tour. The sports agency I.M.G. started courting his family in 1989, when Woods was only 13, and wound up putting his father, Earl, on its payroll as a “junior talent scout” to help ensure that Woods wouldn’t sign anywhere else. (He didn’t.) Nike closely tracked Woods’s amateur career and took approving note of his unusually demonstrative style of play. By the time Woods announced in 1996 that he was dropping out of Stanford to play professional golf, he already had a $40 million Nike endorsement deal. And Nike wasn’t just pursuing its usual strategy of locking up the biggest star in every sport; Woods inspired the company to open a brand-new golf division. The enthusiasm spread quickly, attracting additional investors in the Woods brand: Buick, Gillette, Tag Heuer, Accenture, NetJets and others. It helped that Woods came along just after Jordan demonstrated that an entire sportsentertainment empire could be built on one man’s back. Woods was his natural heir, a fiery, telegenic athlete whose improbable dominance of his sport was easily grasped and appreciated by millions of people who had never much cared for golf. “Everybody has been looking for the next Michael Jordan, and they were looking on the basketball court,” Nike’s chairman, Phil Knight, said shortly after Woods turned pro in the mid-90s. “And he was walking down the fairway all the time.” The passing of the torch from one human sports conglomerate to the next was completed in 2000, when Woods’s final round at Torrey Pines drew a larger TV audience than the NBA All-Star Game. That same year, a Gallup poll confirmed that Woods had surpassed Jordan as America’s most admired athlete. Golf’s alluring demographics, which is to say the relative wealth of its fan base, gave Woods even more potential commercial value to his sponsors than his predecessor: Jordan could sell underwear and Big Macs; Woods could sell financial services and Swiss watches. And as a golfer, Woods offered extra marketing opportunities. He could affix corporate logos to his shirt, hat and bag and even wear a watch on the course. Between his endorsements, appearance fees, prize money and golf-course-design deals, Woods became the first athlete to earn $1 billion. Professional golf was profiting, too. The PGA Tour’s peculiar economics made it particularly well-suited to the sort of speculative investment that is characteristic of bubbles. The tour derives almost all of its revenues from two sources: TV networks and corporate sponsors. Factors that constrain growth in other sports, like stadium capacity, don’t affect golf. In the summer of 1997, just a few weeks after 44 million viewers watched Woods, then 21 years old, win his first Masters — far more than had ever tuned in to the tournament — the tour negotiated new contracts with the networks widely reported to be worth twice

Golfer Tiger Woods sits with his wife, Elin, while they watch a charity tennis match in 2008. Earlier this year, the professional golfer apologized to his wife, family and fans for his marital infidelities. the value of its previous deals. (The PGA Tour says these reports were inaccurate but would not elaborate.) Before Woods, professional golf was a niche sport watched largely by the same people who played it, its crossover potential limited by the parity among tour members. Sports are driven by stars, and it was impossible to predict who was going to be the big story at any given golf tournament. A leader one day could drop out of contention the next, replaced by someone you never heard of before — and might never hear about again. Woods changed all of this. He won roughly a third of the time he played, a rate that defied the sport’s conventional wisdom. Even when he lost, it didn’t much matter. Whether Woods was pumping his fist after an important putt, flinging his driver aside after a disappointing tee shot or just applying lip balm, he was the guy viewers wanted to see. The weekly Nielsen ratings underscored the point: The tournaments Woods played routinely drew twice the audience, including many younger fans, of the tournaments he skipped. To maximize his screen time, IMG and ABC created Monday Night Golf, a series of prime-time, madefor-TV, match-play tournaments featuring Woods and his closest thing to a rival at that particular moment. In turn, golf became more attractive to the corporate sponsors whose names were associated with the various tour events. Prices rose accordingly. Golf-tournament sponsorships are enormously complicated financial transactions. To oversimplify, corporate sponsors typically pay the tour about $8 million to $10 million for a title sponsorship. The tour acts almost like a broker, moving money between the various organizations that host its tournaments and the networks. (Title sponsors are obligated to buy ad space for PGA Tour events, and this guaranteed advertising explains why networks televise so much golf.) Roughly $6 million is spent on the purse of each tour event, with all of the players who make the cut — about half the field — being guaranteed some prize money. The winner takes home roughly 20 percent. Over the course of Woods’s career, the tour aggressively raised the price of entry for corporate sponsors. In the process, purses grew by an average of 400 percent. A lot of money found its way into Woods’s pocket. Last year alone, he won $10.5 million, bringing his career total to about $93 million. But there was also a powerful trickle-down effect on his fellow golfers. In 1996, only nine players on the tour earned $1 million. In 2009, 91 golfers did. With so much money pouring in, tournaments became increasingly lavish affairs. In 2004, Joe Hardy, the eccentric lumber magnate who hosted the tour’s 84 Lumber Classic, flew participating players to their next event on a pair of private planes. The Tiger Bubble was kept afloat by a surging economy and a carefully constructed, zealously protected image of Woods himself. We watched him grow up on the golf course, his maturation evident in the changing tableaux on Sunday afternoons: the victory hug from his father giving way to the kiss from his wife, followed by the addition of a daughter and then a son. Off the course, he was a composite character created by the various commercials in which he starred. They supplemented our limited picture of the man, giving him a sense of humor (he walks across water to rescue his ball from a lily pad); whimsy (he bounces a golf ball on the face of his club while passing it behind his back and between his legs before smacking the ball in midair like a baseball); and even a touch of moral bite (“There are still courses in the U.S. I am not allowed to play because of the color of my skin”). The more intimate glimpses of Woods’s life that were missing
from his cursory pre- and posttournament interviews came via TV commercials, too: His father’s death was memorialized with a Father’s Day ad featuring homevideo footage of the two of them, his son’s birth with an ad that conjured the forging of the boy’s first set of golf clubs (complete with a personalized bag: “Baby Woods”). Woods was a turn-ofthe-century media creation, and yet there was something old-fashioned about how we treated him; he was a modern-day DiMaggio in his mythic remoteness and athletic transcendence.
PGA investment The man who presided over professional golf’s boom during the Tiger Woods era is a University of Virginia-trained lawyer and ex-Carter administration official named Tim Finchem. He became commissioner of the PGA Tour two years before Woods turned pro, and like any good chief executive, he took full advantage of his revolutionary new product. Now Finchem finds himself facing a protracted economic downturn, shrinking marketing budgets, increasing competition from the European Tour — which, unlike the PGA Tour, pays top players appearance fees to participate in its events — and the equivalent of a massive product recall. Finchem and Woods have a complicated history. In 2000, Woods publicly criticized the tour for exploiting his image to market its events. Finchem quickly
patched things up with Woods, but he’s now in an unenviable position. He certainly can’t suggest that Tiger Woods is the tour, and in a sense he’s right. Woods plays only about 16 of the tour’s nearly 50 tournaments each year, 10 or so fewer than most golfers. And for the time being, every one of the tour’s events that depends on sponsorship — the majors don’t — has it. “Tiger spikes things, but he’s spiking things off of a very respectable, very marketable base,” Finchem told me. But Finchem also knows that the tour needs Woods more than Woods needs the tour. This was made clear by Finchem’s handling of Woods’s apology. Not only did he allow golf’s biggest star to make his statement on a Friday in the middle of a PGA Tour event, but he also let Woods use the tour’s flagship facility at TPC Sawgrass, outside Jacksonville, Fla., for the occasion. He even left the ongoing tournament to be present himself. To hedge its investment in Woods, the tour has also been promoting some of its more promising younger players like Rickie Fowler and Anthony Kim. But golf is not like basketball, where highly regarded rookies arrive with public profiles and can have an impact almost right away. That was what was unique about Woods. Not only did he start winning tournaments weeks after turning pro, he brought drama to the sport with a conspicuous intensity that has been impossible to replicate — and that makes for great TV. “The TV people come to talk to us every once in a while, and they say that’s what we need. We need more emotion. We need the guy out there pumping his fist in the air, jumping up and down when he makes a putt,” the tour veteran Harrison Frazar told me. “But as golfers we’re taught to be gentlemen and to be respectful to the people we’re playing with. And also all of the psychologists and coaches teach us to try to stay level. Yeah, they want emotion, but it’s a tough thing to ask of people who are taught to be emotionless.”
derwrite its events. Indeed in the last year it has signed up five new title sponsors. “Companies have a right to do business with a client,” says Bruce Lucker, who runs the golf-marketing company Signature Golf. “If they do that in an environment where they can get a guy away from his computer and cellphone, get him out on the golf course, why is that a crime?” While tournament fairways may no longer be lined with corporate tents filled with buzzed executives in golf shirts, the game’s ongoing globalization — 35 of the top 50 players in the world are not American — could provide new revenue streams to the tour. And professional golf has the potential to become more interesting than ever as Woods, who will turn 35 this year, tries to maintain his dominance against a new generation of big hitters whom he spawned and who claim not to fear him. Once he’s back, new endorsement opportunities will no doubt emerge, if not from the same sorts of upscale companies that invested in him during the Tiger Bubble. For now anyway, Woods may not be inclined to raise his public profile any higher than it already is. He certainly doesn’t need the money. Even post-scandal, having retained only a fraction of the sponsors he had last year (Nike, Electronic Arts and Gillette), he remains the world’s highest-paid athlete, according to Forbes magazine, which recently put the value of Woods’s existing endorsement deals at $82 million. Unlike Jordan, Woods won’t have the option of retiring from his sport as a brand, his carefully manufactured image intact. But this could ultimately present new marketing opportunities for him and golf. “If I were managing his career, I would advise him to keep the conversation focused on golf for the next few years,” says Matthew Pace, the former head of sports marketing for General Motors. “Maybe after that, he could become the fallen yet revived saint, the human Tiger Woods as opposed to the idealized one.”

What will happen to golf after the excitement over Woods’ return subsides? Purses may shrink, as may the number of tournaments, but there is no reason to believe that the tour won’t continue to find companies willing to un-

Consumers emptying wallets for Easter An estimated $14 billion or more will be spent on candyfilled baskets, lamb dinners and colored eggs for the Easter holiday weekend, a sign that nonessential purchases are rebounding. The projected 1.8 percent boost would be the first increase in Easter holiday spending in three years, with food, candy and clothing leading the growth, according to IBISWorld, a Los Angelesbased research firm. Easter typically ranks fourth for spending after Christmas, Valentine’s and Mother’s Day.
U.S. firms report less access in China U.S. companies in China are being constrained by a host of new regulations restricting their market access, a survey by the American Chamber of Commerce in China shows. For the first time in the survey’s 12-year history, U.S. firms reported that their biggest challenge was “inconsistent regulatory interpretation� on the part of China’s government, such as new rules mandating purchases of home-grown technology and irregular enforcement of laws. In past years personnel issues, such as hiring experienced managers, were top concerns. The United States is seeking to break down barriers to its exports to further narrow a trade deficit with China that amounted to $181.4 billion last year and meet President Barack Obama’s goal of doubling exports within five years.
30-year fixed rates up The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 5.08 percent with an average 0.7 point for the week ending April 1, up from the week before when it averaged 4.99 percent, according to Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey. Last year at this time, the 30-year fixed-year rate averaged 4.78 percent. The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage last week averaged 4.39 percent. A year ago at this time, the 15-year fixed rate averaged 4.52 percent. The Federal Reserve’s $1.25 trillion program to buy mortgage-backed securities, its largest intervention to prop up the American economy, came to a long-anticipated end Wednesday. The program has been credited with holding mortgage interest rates at near-record lows and slowing the decline in home prices that threatened to send the economy into an extended slump. — Staff and wire reports

Sunriver makes pitch to Google
S
unriver wants some fiber â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Google fiber, that is â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the economies of Sunriver and greater Central Oregon could be big winners if the resort community lands Googleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experiment. Sunriver was among more than 1,100 communities nationwide to respond to Googleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request for information from communities interested in being guinea pigs for the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s super high-speed broadband network it plans to test in a few locations nationwide. Through the experimental fiber network, Google plans to deliver Internet speeds of 1 gigabit per second, more than 100 times faster than most Americans have access to today, according to Googleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official blog. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our goal is to experiment with new ways to help make Internet access better and faster for everyone,â&#x20AC;? the site says, adding that it wants to provide the service to at least 50,000 people and as many as 500,000 at competitive prices. Two people behind Sunriverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request believe they make a convincing case for their community to be among the chosen ones. Googleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visions, for example, of super high-speed Internet benefiting rural health clinics, schools and entertainment appear relevant to applications proposed by Sunriver. (To see Sunriverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presentation to Google, provided in a 10-minute YouTube video, visit www.youtube. com/watch?v=eNRs3DRoFhU.) While Sunriver has only about 6,000 homes, backers say the service could touch the lives of about 1 million people, the estimated number of visitors Sunriver gets each year, which would demonstrate the broadband capabilities to people from throughout the U.S. and world. But the reason Central Oregon should be rooting for Sunriverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success is what it could mean for attracting talent to the area â&#x20AC;&#x201D; more people like Richard Luebke, a Sunriver resident of the past 11 years and former employee at Oracle, Intel and Tandem Computers, now part of HewlettPackard. Luebke, 60, now advises and invests in startup companies and is connected enough to the tech world to know many people are â&#x20AC;&#x153;itchingâ&#x20AC;? to leave Silicon Valley for Sunriverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifestyle if technology allowed them to do their jobs here. Even Luebke, who has some of the best high-speed Internet connections in Sunriver canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do as much as heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like from his home. He had to travel to Bend to the new TechSpaceBend office downtown to upload his YouTube video to Google. Indeed, Bend is part of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;technology oasisâ&#x20AC;? relative to other markets, said Frank Miller, chief technology officer at BendBroadband. While Google will offer speeds about 100 times faster than many communities enjoy, it would be about 17 times faster than BendBroadbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top wired high-speed Internet service, he said. In Sunriver, Googleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s service would be about 125 times faster than the average wireless service BendBroadband offers, depending on location, to that area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We see a clear path to (1 gigabit per second) service over our deep fiber and cable investment, when the time is right to bring value to our customers,â&#x20AC;? Miller said in an e-mail. BendBroadbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thoughts on Googleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Googleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts are intended to bring awareness to where we are headed as a nation, specifically in light of the formation of a National Broadband Plan, and with the desire to envision future broadband capacity and services, â&#x20AC;? Miller wrote. While landing new telecommuters in Sunriver could advance a separate goal to expand that communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s permanent resident population and help local businesses, it would have the added benefit of bringing good-paying jobs to the area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need jobs,â&#x20AC;? Luebke said. He sees such a network as a way not only to attract more tech people like him, but also spinoff and support businesses. John Salzer, a retired Sunriver homeowner who spent his career in the telecommunications industry, helped Luebke with the Google pitch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always believed that it would be an ideal place to telecommute,â&#x20AC;? said Salzer, adding that existing infrastructure provided by one of Sunriverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Internet providers, Chambers Cable, positions the community to implement the Google fiber-to-home network easily and cost effectively. And while some people question Sunriverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chances for the project, Salzer is optimistic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I actually think we have a pretty good chance,â&#x20AC;? he said. Google, which hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t named all applicants, expects to announce its target communities for the project later this year.

Startups are trying break the texting habit with applications that block phone functions in a moving car, but it’s tough to create a comprehensive system, partly because the phones have a hard time distinguishing drivers from passengers.
Warning! Drop that cell phone By Peter Svensson The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Cars use lights, bells and buzzers to remind drivers to fasten their seat belts as they start their engines. It would seem natural, then, to offer motorists friendly, yet stern warnings about another bad habit: holding a cell phone while driving, whether for texting or talking. Several software and gadget companies — many of them at the country’s biggest trade show for the wireless industry in Las Vegas — have sprung up to address that challenge. But creating an effective, widespread solution looks a lot harder than putting in reminders for seat belts. Furthermore, we’re only just beginning to figure out what constitutes a dangerous distraction, and how best to curb it. Are hands-free conversations dangerous? What about dictating text messages to your phone? Does everyone need help staying away from the phone while driving, or just teens and employees? Many states, including Oregon, ban drivers from using cell phones without hands-free devices, but a recent insurance industry study found that such laws haven’t reduced crashes. It’s not clear why, but drivers, obviously, could be flouting the laws. At least a dozen startups have produced phone applications designed to curb the temptation to use the phone while driving. But these applications work only on some phones and have a hard time figuring out if the user is actually driving. Potentially important players — wireless carriers, cell phone makers, auto manufacturers and the federal government — have yet to step in, leaving the field to smaller companies that lack the clout to put services in widespread use.
More dangerous? And some of the tools might not even improve safety. “Technology without a clear vision for how it’s going to actually help drivers could end up doing more harm than good,” said John Lee, professor of industrial and systems engineering at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. For instance, Drive Safely Corp. proposes to put software on phones to detect, using a built-in GPS chip, when a device is moving faster than 15 miles per hour. To figure out whether the phone is being used by a driver or a passenger, who can safely text in the car, Drive Safely intends to have the phone flash a series of numbers and letters that the user has to match on the keypad. The assumption is that drivers won’t be able to match the sequence while watching the road, so they won’t be able to unlock it for texting. Lee suspects that won’t deter teens, and perhaps other motorists, from trying. “They will try to do that task while they drive,” Lee said. “And by making that task really difficult, you make it more dangerous for them.”
Cost considerations A half-dozen other services are either available or in the works to use the phone’s GPS chip to figure out if the device is moving. With
Getting drivers to stop texting Some services that aim to curb distractions from phones used while driving: • iZup: This application from Illume Software uses a phone’s GPS chip to determine if it’s in motion, then locks predetermined phone functions such as texting and calling. The service can’t tell if you’re the driver or the passenger. To use the phone as a passenger, you must have a password and go to iZup’s Web site to temporarily disable the service. The service works on BlackBerrys, Windows Mobile and Android phones. Cost: $4.95 per month or $49.95 per year. • DriveSafe.ly: The iSpeech Inc. application “knows” you’re driving by turning it on. The app reads incoming text messages aloud. (Warning: If you forget to turn it off after getting out of the car, DriveSafe.ly could create some embarrassing moments.) The service is available for BlackBerrys, iPhones, Android and Windows Mobile phones. A free version reads out only the first 25 words of each message. The “Pro” version costs $13.95 to buy, with no service fees. names such as ZoomSafer, TxtBlocker, CellSafety and Textecution, these software tools can respond in a number of ways, such as holding incoming text messages in quarantine until after the trip or by blocking the writing of new ones. They’re expensive compared with regular downloadable applications, possibly because the startups figure that parents of teens will pay for a feeling of security. Some cost $40 to buy, then charge recurring fees of $4 or so per month. None of them can tell, however, whether the owner is in a bus or a train rather than an automobile, or if someone in a car is just a passenger and not the driver. So most of these tools have an override option — which a determined motorist can take advantage of even while driving. Power consumption from constant GPS use is also a concern, possibly draining the battery twice as fast on some phones and applications. Another approach is to dispense with using the GPS chip and rely on the car to tell the phone that it’s in a moving car. But it adds the element of hardware installation, and the cost of the Bluetooth transmitter. If the phone isn’t set up to use a particular transmitter, the software doesn’t work. That assures that you can pair your phone with a particular vehicle, but it means you’ll have to remember to turn off the phone when you’re borrowing a car. A problem common to both GPS and Bluetooth approaches is that the applications will only run on certain phones. The phones most commonly supported by the distracted-driving apps are BlackBerrys, high-end Nokia phones and devices running Microsoft Corp.’s Windows Mobile or Google Inc.’s Android software. Phones that lack “smart” operating systems are out of luck, as is
• Cellcontrol: This service from ObdEdge LLC uses a $60 device that plugs into the car’s onboard diagnostics port, which is usually under the steering wheel. A separate application for the driver’s phone costs $25 to download and $8.95 a month to use. The phone connects to the device in the port through wireless Bluetooth technology. When the device detects that the car is moving, it tells the phone to lock texting, calling or both, depending on the user’s settings. Cellcontrol works with BlackBerrys and phones running Windows Mobile and Symbian software. Originally designed for companies to use in their fleet cars and trucks, it is now marketed to consumers as well. Inc.’s iPhone. Apple doesn’t allow third-party software to run “in the background,” so it can’t figure out if the iPhone is in a moving car. “It’s going to be expensive for companies like our own to continually try to catch up with the multitude of phones,” said Joe Brennan at Trinity-Noble, which has a GPS-based app called Guardian Angel MP.

Jamming Brennan believes the only viable long-term solution is to install a radio jammer that blocks all communication between the driver’s phone and the outside world. The company has been developing such a jammer for years, but it’s illegal in the United States. Brennan says its effect is so specific that passengers can still use their phones. Lee believes that eventually, some sort of solution will be built into cars and take advantage of their electronics, displays and controls to reduce phone distractions. Ford Motor Co.’s optional Sync system already links cell phones to the car’s controls, reads out text messages and understands spoken commands. It’s questionable whether replacing manual manipulation of the phone with voice commands is safer, though. Research has shown that cell phone conversations are distracting to drivers whether they’re holding the phone or using a hands-free system. The Department of Transportation’s Research and Innovative Technology Administration is looking at ways to reduce phone distractions, but it wants to make sure that technology promising better safety won’t also create an additional distraction. Peter Appel, the agency’s head, warned against waiting for technology to solve what’s really a problem of behavior: “The real challenge that we face is: How do you get drivers to just drive?”

NIELSEN NUMBERS FOR EARLY 2010
Network news’ dying breath? Not exactly 8.27 million for ABC and 6.45 million for CBS. Is this a signal that viewers are abandoning network newscasts in droves? No. The number of viewers still watching the three shows together — more than 24 million in the first quarter — continues to dwarf any news program on cable.
By Bill Carter New York Times News Service
With buyouts and layoffs in progress, the mood at ABC News cannot be good. It was probably not enhanced by the ratings report for the first quarter of the year showing that the network’s evening newscast, “World News,” had sunk to the lowest numbers the program has had in a first quarter since the People Meter was introduced by Nielsen in 1987. The same situation prevailed at CBS, where the “Evening News” also hit a new low for the months of January through March. The beneficiary was NBC, where “Nightly News” scored its best first-quarter numbers
The Associated Press
NBC scored its best firstquarter showing since 2005 in network news, with Brian Williams’ “Nightly News.” since 2005. Overall, the numbers were: 9.92 million viewers for NBC,
New anchors But “World News” has had a falloff since Diane Sawyer took over for Charles Gibson. The show is down about 3 percent — 215,000 — from a year ago. Transitions often result in some audience defections. ABC’s morning show, “Good Morning America,” was also
down in viewers in the first quarter by about 4 percent and by a more sizable 12 percent among the news audience that advertisers seek, those 25 to 54 years old. The show is also in transition to political newscaster George Stephanopoulos as the chief anchor from Sawyer. ABC News executives also say that the first quarter contained some especially favorable weeks for NBC News because that network was covering the Winter Olympics. NBC’s “Today” show was devoted almost completely to the Olympics for more than two weeks in February, and the “Nightly News” took advantage of the network’s association with the Olympics as well.

WASHINGTON — The landmark health care law was sold as an effort to reform unfair insurance practices, but it largely exempts the existing employer-based network from the overhaul. The law grandfathers many existing employer-sponsored plans, sparing them from the consumer protections that will apply to new plans, including minimum-benefit standards and limits on how much a worker can pay in out-of-pocket medical costs. “The basic bottom line is there is very little change in employer coverage,” said Karen Davis, president of the Commonwealth Fund, a private foundation that promotes improvements in the health care system. Through a variety of carrots and sticks, the health care law is designed to prod businesses that don’t provide coverage today to start offering benefits. But strictly speaking, it doesn’t mandate that employers provide insurance. Because the law requires that individuals obtain coverage, businesses may see more workers join their employersponsored plan in the next several years, and dependents up to 26 years old can be added to their parents’ existing plan. But the essential benefits that must be offered by new plans starting in 2014 — including coverage for mental health and prescription drugs — aren’t required for existing plans. “By and large, these are important consumer protections,” said Stacey Pogue, senior policy analyst at the Center for Public Policy Priorities, a liberal-leaning think tank in Austin. “… The grandfathering creates a loophole.” Small businesses — those with fewer than 50 workers — are similarly exempt from many of the law’s requirements.
SAN FRANCISCO — Positive reports from several points along the consumer electronics business chain showed that people appear willing to spend money on smart phones and other gadgets, and the news helped lift shares of companies from chipmakers to online and traditional retailers. Upbeat quarterly results from electronics retailer Best Buy Co. Inc., as well as bullish analysis on online retailers Amazon.com Inc. and eBay Inc. and a new, raised outlook from Qualcomm Inc. suggest that consumer spending on tech products is on the rise. Probably the most-obvious sign that consumers might be feeling a little more confident came from Best Buy, the largest consumer electronics retailer in the U.S. Before the market opened, Best Buy said its fourth-quarter earnings rose 37 percent from a year ago, to $779 million, or $1.82 a share, on revenue of $16.6 billion. The results were better than had been expected, and the company said its performance was driven by strong sales of discretionary and big-ticket items such as flatscreen TVs, notebook PCs and mobile phones.
Optimism from the latest quarter Bob Pavlik, chief market strategist at Banyan Partners, said the Best Buy results suggest that even though the consumer might not be sold on the economy, they are still likely to open up their wallets. “I think it’s just that,” Pavlik said. “What’s happening is consumers will say one thing, that they are still a bit concerned about the economy, but when it comes to the bottom line and they need a new computer or something else, they’re going to do a little shopping. And I think we might see more of this continue.” One of the beneficiaries of the rise in demand for mobile phones has been Qualcomm Inc., which builds chipsets and licenses technology for smart phones and other wireless communication devices. The company raised its outlook for its second quarter and now expects to earn 42 cents to 44 cents a share on revenue in a range of $2.55 billion to $2.65 billion. Cody Acree, an analyst with Williams Financial Group, said Qualcomm’s outlook was impressive, but when combined with the results from Best Buy, suggests that demand isn’t limited to one particular segment of tech products. “(The) March quarter demand is obviously well ahead of normal, seasonal weakness,” Acree said, in a research note.

It was nearly a half-century ago, in a 1955 episode of “The Honeymooners,” that Ralph Kramden, the parsimonious bus driver played by Jackie Gleason, told his wife Alice that the reason he hadn’t yet bought them a television set was because “I’m waiting for 3-D.” The wait is over, and a full-fledged 3-D television turf war is brewing, as manufacturers unveil 3-dimensional sets for the living room and cable programmers rush to create new channels for them.
The 3-D sales pitch By Elizabeth Olson New York Times News Service
The consumer electronics world thrives on the latest new thing. And this year that would be 3-D. It was once considered a quirky technology gone nowhere, but, because of the popularity of “Avatar,” television makers now are racing to bring multidimensional viewing to the living room. Samsung Electronics is introducing 15 3-D television models with a live-action 3-dimensional commercial created by the same technical production company that made James Cameron’s popular film. And just like the 1950s when the technology was popular in the country’s theaters, special spectacles — which look nothing like the paper versions but come at an additional price — are required for the full visual experience. But for all the razzle-dazzle, Samsung knows that, with hefty price tags, consumers need to feel they are not buying into a one-off phenomenon. So the company has partnered with Dreamworks Animation and the pop band Black Eyed Peas and is talking to Hollywood studios and other companies about creating and providing 3-D content for home viewing.
10% of all TV sales? TV manufacturers are betting on 3-D. There are forecasts that consumers will buy 3.5 million to 4 million such sets, or about 10 percent of all United States television sales, this year. But that may be optimistic. Different and incompatible technologies mean that one maker’s glasses, for example, cannot be used on another’s television model. “The glasses go for a premium — around $150 — which means it’s costly, for example, to have a few people over for a Super Bowl party, unless it’s ‘bring your own compatible spectacles,’” said Ross Rubin, an analyst for NPD Group, a market research firm. Tim Baxter, president of Samsung Electronics America, said that electronics companies were working to come up with a single standard, but he conceded that it would not happen immediately. Even so, he said that Samsung executives believed that 3-D technology was ushering in an era where “there will be less
“The fact that these are also 2-D televisions also means that if you are looking to buy a television, you may want to future-proof by purchasing 3-D and wait for the content to catch up.” — Anthony Chukumba, an analyst for BB&T Capital Markets passive sitting back and watching television, and a more immersive, interactive experience.” He said that the high-definition televisions, which can be switched from 2-D to 3-D with the push of a button, built on Samsung’s previous experience with such technology. Its research found that more than 90 percent of United States consumers were aware of the technology, but fewer than a third had experienced it. “We’ve already sold a couple of thousand units in less than two weeks,” Baxter said. The first two models — the 46-inch and 55-inch — are now in stores, and the remaining sets will be available in the next 60 days, he said. The best seller is the wider model, he said, because “early adopters gravitate toward the bigger screen.” Panasonic also has introduced its 3-D products and sent a fleet of tractor trailers on a tour to acquaint consumers with the technology. LG Electronics is promoting its new Infinia series of televisions, which feature 3-D. The 30-second spots, created by Young & Rubicam, part of WPP, are appearing during the NCAA basketball tournament on CBS. LG’s 3-D televisions will be in stores in May or June, the company said. Sony’s 3-D products will be available in June.
Marketing push Samsung is spending about $100 million this year on marketing and advertising its 3-D products. That included promoting its 3-D line with a Black Eyed Peas concert in New York’s Times Square on March 10. For its signature advertising

Each spring, fall and summer trees release pollen. This is when pollen allergy takes its toll on us. The job of pollen is to fertilize other plants, but quite often pollen winds up entering our noses and throats, making our lives difficult if not simply miserable. Interestingly, plants with bright colored flowers usually don’t bother pollen allergy sufferers. It is the plain looking trees and plants that cause the greatest allergy symptoms. Here in Central Oregon, Juniper, Mountain Cedar and Pine are significantly problematic. Juniper and Cedar pollen cause asthma, hayfever, and allergic conjunctivitis usually starting in late February or March and lasting until April or May. Often people develop contact skin reactions with hives or itchy rashes in early February. These pollens have been observed to travel great distances of 200 km according to wind patterns. Juniper may be unique in causing allergic rhinitis in patients who have no other sensitivities. It has further been observed that after a couple of years of moderate exposure, even the least allergic person will develop a Juniper allergy. Symptoms Include: • Sneezing often accompanied by a runny or clogged nose. • Coughing or a postnasal drip. • Itching eyes, nose, and throat. • Allergic shiners (dark circles under the eyes cause by increased blood flow near the sinuses). • Watery, itchy, inflamed eyes. • Mental dullness and fatigue. The right care can make the difference between suffering and feeling better. By visiting an experienced allergist, you can expect an accurate diagnosis, a comprehensive treatment plan that works and educational information.

Many of these firms don’t provide insurance to workers. (Small firms often pay more for health insurance because they lack the clout to negotiate with insurers, and one sick worker can raise premiums for the whole group.) The law favors small businesses in two ways. As soon as this year, they’ll be able to claim a tax credit worth up to 35 percent of their premium contributions. In 2014, when new insurance exchanges are operational, they’ll be able to shop for plans in an online marketplace. The exchanges are supposed to make it easier to compare and buy coverage. Individuals and families who don’t have coverage from their employer will also be able to shop for plans on the exchange. Individuals with incomes below $43,320 and families with income below $88,000 will qualify for tax credits that would make coverage cheaper. Some small businesses may drop their own coverage and let workers look for coverage in the exchange, economists say. But employer-sponsored coverage would still account for 61 percent of the market in 2019, according to the Congressional Budget Office. (The ratio today is 69 percent.) The law will have little impact on premiums for employer-sponsored coverage, the CBO found. But larger employers that don’t offer coverage, or offer substandard coverage, will face penalties if their workers get subsidized coverage through the exchange. Because of these penalties, business groups argue the law effectively contains an employer mandate.

spot, Samsung hired the Oscarwinning cinematographer Mauro Fiore, who used the fusion 3-D camera technology that was employed to make “Avatar.” The 30second commercial, called “Dedicated to Wonder,” was created by Chicago’s Leo Burnett agency, part of the Publicis Groupe. The commercial shows a family at the wall of a huge aquarium. The father reaches over and, using his finger, carves out a block of the water — manta rays, fish and all — then transports it home and places it inside the Samsung 3-D television. As the family settles in on the sofa, a manta ray swims out of the television. “It’s so real that the family’s little boy reaches out to touch it,” said Bob Price, Leo Burnett’s creative director. A 15-second snippet of the commercial was shown during this year’s Academy Awards telecast. The full campaign began March 21, with ads scheduled to run in a number of primetime programs. The ads will also appear on cable, and a print version will run in Architectural Digest, Entertainment Weekly and ESPN magazines, among other titles. Anthony Chukumba, an analyst for BB&T Capital Markets, said the increased offerings, like ESPN’s 3-D broadcast of World Cup soccer in June, DirectTV and Discovery’s planned channels, as well as more 3-D movies and video games, would increase consumer awareness. “The fact that these are also 2-D televisions also means that if you are looking to buy a television, you may want to future-proof by purchasing 3-D and wait for the content to catch up,” he said.

S D Silverado Hybrid: Good per gallon, not per dollar By Warren Brown Special to The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — Truck season began the first weekend of spring with dozens of commercial haulers and privately owned pickups rolling into the weigh-andpay station of the I-95 Resource Recovery Facility in Lorton, Va. It’s one of those euphemistically named places otherwise known as a dump. But the appellation isn’t all puffR E V I E W ery. Trash at the gargantuan facility is sorted by category — construction materials, old electronic equipment, building materials, brush and yard waste. Burnable items are used to help generate electricity. Metals are melted and reformed for other purposes. One person’s yard waste becomes another person’s mulch. It is a seasonal ritual, oddly enjoyable for truck lovers, who often use the occasion to exchange views on truck performance and innovation. There were a number of pickup trucks at our designated brush and yard waste site, including other Chevrolet Silverado models old and new, Ford F-Series (the bestselling vehicles in the country for 33 years), Dodge Rams and an occasional Nissan Titan or Toyota Tundra. My wife, Mary Anne, and I had the only hybrid pickup. After two days of chatter with real truck people, those for whom trucks are a fundamental part of daily life, it was clear to see why. Truck people don’t like the current generation of hybrid trucks. The first reason is price. The 2010 Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid crew cab with all-wheel drive, for example, starts at $47,820. The comparable fourwheel-drive, non-hybrid Chevrolet Silverado LTZ starts at $41,775. Depending on equipment levels, other models in Chevrolet’s 94-member Silverado line, most of them as capable of doing truck stuff as the Silverado Hybrid, start at prices $6,000 to $25,000 lower than their hybrid counterparts. “No way” was the often-spoken sentiment from dump-site patrons when asked if they would consider buying a hybrid truck. “No way.” In response, General Motors, maker of the Silverado Hybrid, wisely is rolling out that model as a “limited edition.” Until the company produces a full-size hybrid pickup that offers substantially more for its whopping price premium, it should keep it that way. That is not to say that the Silverado Hybrid is a bad truck — not at all. It moves from stop to start under electric power at a top speed of 29 mph. Non-hybrid pickups, nearly all of them gas-guzzlers, waste an awful lot of fuel in stopand-go traffic, revving their big
Angry ex-girlfriend didn’t sabotage Civic (probably) By Brad Bergholdt McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Q:
As a single mother of two teenage sons, I get a great deal of benefit from your columns. Thanks for all the practical advice. I have a 1998 Honda Civic with around 250,000 miles on it that still performs amazingly well. However, it recently started dying as it was being driven. It won’t restart immediately but will restart after sitting for about 10 minutes. We replaced the distributor, but that didn’t help. After replacing the fuel pump and fuel filter, it drove fine for about three weeks but has started dying again. I have wondered about the effects of outside temperature — and also if my son’s angry exgirlfriend might have put something in the fuel tank. How could that be detected and resolved? Now this is something you don’t see very often — a Honda that stops running! Just prior to the fuel pump being replaced, and after the three-week OK period, how often did the problem surface? If fuel pump replacement led to a night-andday difference, retracing steps in this area makes sense. I’m thinking a possible loose electrical connection, or as you suggested, fuel contamination. It’s highly unlikely a new fuel pump would act up so similarly to the original one, and if the Civic runs strong between these episodes, fuel contamination also isn’t likely. At the time of an incident, wiggling wire connections near the fuel pump may result in an immediate startup (the offending connection is then tightened, replaced or bypassed) Here’s how to check for this, as well as look for contamination: Once the back seat pad is removed, a salad-plate-sized disc in the floor can be removed, providing access to the top of the fuel tank.

The Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid crew cab, available with rear-wheel drive, is a good truck with innovative technology sold at a price that would drive most truck lovers away.
2010 Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid Base price: $47,820 As tested: $49,265 Type: Dual-mode four-door, five-passenger hybrid pickup Engine: 6-liter V-8 linked to a dual-mode automatic transmission, a four-speed automatic gearbox in combination with an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission. Mileage: 21 mpg city, 22 mpg highway
V-8 engine (332 horsepower, 367 foot-pounds of torque) took over. We moved! But when highway traffic slowed down, four of the V-8’s cylinders took a rest, thanks to GM’s “active engine management” system. That saved us fuel, giving us a highway mileage of nearly 23 mpg — much better than we’ve gotten in anybody’s full-size, allwheel-drive pickup. We liked that. But we aren’t willing to pay a $6,000 to $25,000 premium to get it.
The bottom line engines only to shut them down after traveling a block or two. Non-hybrid, gas-fueled, fullsize pickups get 12 to 15 miles a gallon in the city, regardless of manufacturer. In our possession, the Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid got nearly 22 mpg — good, but not nearly good enough to pay for its premium price. We drove nearly 600 highway miles in the Silverado Hybrid and loved every mile of our journey. Running at a highway speed of 75 mph, the truck’s standard 6-liter
The 2010 Cadillac CTS-V.
Ride, acceleration and handling: Appropriately slow acceleration, up to 29 mph under electric power, in city traffic. Highway acceleration is excellent. But handling? It’s a full-size pickup with a factory weight of 5,286 pounds. Under any circumstance, you handle that very carefully. Head-turning quotient: Truck lovers love it. To others, it’s just another truck. Style: The 2010 Chevrolet Silverado hybrid has a body-onframe construction, with a four-
door, five-passenger cabin. In stop-and-go city traffic, it is powered by a nickel-metal-hydride battery pack in tandem with two 60-kilowatt electric motors. That saves fuel where most pickups waste it. A 6-liter V-8, with cylinder deactivation technology, takes over on the highway. Capacities: Seats five people. It has a short cargo bed: 5 feet 8 inches. Maximum payload, what the truck can carry onboard, is 1,418 pounds. It can tow a trailer weighing 5,900 pounds. Fuel capacity is 26 gallons. It can run on regular unleaded gasoline, or 85 percent ethanol, 15 percent gasoline (E-85), which burns faster and is likely to yield fewer miles per gallon than gasoline.
sembly (a saucer-sized disc seals it) is now visible. Removing the fuel pump assembly provides a great view inside the tank, and contamination residue would be easy to spot. A strong caution: Accessing the tank internal parts releases highly flammable fuel vapors. Take great care to provide adequate ventilation by opening all doors, and avoid any source of sparks. This isn’t a job for your teenagers. If fuel pump replacement didn’t make a verifiable difference in the Civic’s behavior, let’s try some other things. Prior to the next incident, learn the location of the PGM-FI relay. This 2inch rectangular plastic gadget, mounted above, behind or to the right of the glove box, controls the fuel pump by switching electrical current to it (open the glove box and depress the tabs to let it drop completely open). Giving the relay a sharp smack, during the next incident, may also result in an immediate engine restart — or perhaps put it out of its misery for good. Either way, this would tell you the relay is the part to renew. Checking for ignition spark at the time of an incident may also be needed. This is simple to do with a basic spark tester. Verifying fuel injector clicking is also easy — touching one with fingertips while a helper cranks the engine. An absence of spark or clicks is a strong clue that will help a technician zero in on the problem. Rest assured this fault, as long as it acts up regularly, will not be difficult to get to the bottom of, and the Civic should be good for another 250,000 miles.
