Professor emerging as Republican favorite to beat Wyden

WASHINGTON — Longtime Lewis and Clark Law professor Jim Huffman is running for the U.S. Senate as a Republican, but there’s only one word to describe his political philosophy: libertarian.

From his seat at the Portland law school, Huffman has spent the past 30 years vociferously opposing federal environmental reg ulations, state zoning laws and, most Jim Huffman recently, the health care overhaul bill that became law last month. While the 65-year-old professor has never held political office, his long record of advocating for limits on federal power made him well-known in conservative circles and quickly made him the favorite of the state GOP, despite a crowded field of Republicans seeking to challenge incumbent Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore. See Senate / A5

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs plans to more than double the size of its Bend clinic. That means that as soon as next year, far fewer veterans will have to make a trip to Portland for basic medical care.

The department recently started a search for a new facility in Bend, where it plans to dramatically expand the medical services it will offer Central Oregon vets, VA spokesman Mike McAleer said Tuesday.

“I think we would have enough to cover all the veterans in the Bend area for primary care, mental health and the specialties, so they don’t have to come up to Portland,” McAleer said.

An expanded clinic would save many veterans more than six hours of round-trip driving to get to Portland’s VA hospital, said Anne Philiben, president of Central Oregon Veteran’s Outreach.

“I think it’ll just be so great that so many really sick people, elderly and blind people don’t have to go to Portland for their health care,” Philiben said. “That’s massive, that’s huge, a big relief for the people in this area.”

The exact range of services at the new clinic hasn’t been decided, McAleer said.

“We’ll be looking at how to best serve the veterans around Bend,” McAleer said. “We’re going to of course expand mental health, the eye clinic with ophthalmology and optometry. We’ll also increase the amount of primary care.”

“We’ve needed this so badly.

Some of these men who are younger than I find it difficult to get in a van and drive three, four hours to Vancouver and Portland.

They shouldn’t be forced to do that. They served their time.”

— Ole Anker, 81-year-old Marine Corps veteran from Bend

“I use the clinic in Bend because I’ve got a whole long list of disabilities. … If I have specialized care I have to go to either Portland or St. Charles sometimes.

If it’s an emergency, you have to go to St. Charles.”

Navy veteran Russ Haupt, 67, gets an eye exam by Dr. Richard Gardner at the Veterans Affairs specialty clinic in Bend on Tuesday. The VA plans to more than double the size of its current treatment in Bend, adding services specialists including eye doctors. Local veterans are pleased they won’t have to drive six hours round trip to Portland, except for major procedures. “If it’s something that they referred me to Portland then sometimes I go there,” says Haupt, of Bend. “… Even if it costs me something to go to a civilian doctor in town, sometimes it’s better than making a trek to Portland.”

Deschutes County 911 officials voted to fire the dispatch center’s director Tuesday, but several used the occasion to raise concerns about the process leading to the vote.

Officials said their decision was based on 911 Director Becky McDonald allegedly lying to them about her romantic relationship with a 911 dispatcher’s husband and Becky that she could McDonald no longer lead the district.

Officials plan to discuss later this month whether the district needs to be restructured to avoid problems in the future.

Some members of the district’s board said it was difficult to communicate and get all parties together to make a decision. And County Administrator Dave Kanner said it made him uncomfortable the 911 board pursued an investigation based on a complaint from the dispatcher, Theresa Joye, since she had made comments suggesting she wanted to get McDonald fired. Kanner only sits on the 911 board for issues related to its director.

McDonald disagrees with her dismissal and plans to appeal it to the Deschutes County Commission, her attorney, Katherine Tank, said Tuesday morning.

Only Kanner voted against terminating McDonald.

The 911 district’s governing board placed McDonald on paid administrative leave in early December, after Theresa Joye filed a worker’s compensation claim against the district saying the 911 center had become a hostile workplace because of McDonald’s relationship with her husband, Kyle Joye.

sader for marijuana legalization. A 63-year-old grandmother who doesn’t use it, she says money was the only reason for proposing her controversial bill.

“According to the state’s own estimates, it would bring in an additional $300 million per biennium,” she says. “I dedicated (in the bill) a great deal of the proceeds from the tax on marijuana

to treatment.”

This has been a bumper year for marijuana legislation, according to state policy observers.

Crushing state budget deficits gave advocates in California, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New York and elsewhere an opening to pitch marijuana as a new source of tax revenue.

Bombing video brings notice to a notorious fringe Web site

By Noam Cohen and Brian Stelter New York Times News Service

Three months ago, WikiLeaks, a whistle-blower Web site that posts classified and sensitive documents, put out an urgent call for help on Twitter. “Have encrypted videos of U.S. bomb strikes on civilians. We need super computer time.”

Somehow — it will not say how — WikiLeaks, which calls itself “an intelligence agency of the people,” found the necessary computer time to de-encrypt a graphic video, released Monday, of a U.S. Army assault in Iraq in 2007 that left 12 people dead, including two Reuters news agency employees.

The video has been viewed more than 2 million times on YouTube, and has been replayed hundreds of times in television news reports.

The video’s release is drawing attention to the once-fringe Web site, which aims to bring to light hidden information about governments and multinational corporations — putting secrets in plain sight and protecting the identity of those who help do so.

Exploring Obama’s wildlife record: Some progress but a few disappointments A N A LY S I S

By Paul Rogers San Jose (Calif.) Mercury News

During his first year in office, President Barack Obama won praise from environmental groups for a wide range of decisions, from toughening gas mileage rules to spending billions on renewable energy projects.

But now there’s grumbling on his green flank. A growing number of environmentalists are clashing with the administration over its management of America’s struggling wildlife populations and what they call its reluctance to use the nation’s most powerful environmental law, the Endangered Species Act, to stand up to industry.

Five conservation groups, led by the Sierra Club, are suing the federal government, stemming from a decision by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service refusing to draw up critical habitat maps for the Florida panther. Florida’s state animal, the iconic panther, once widely roamed the South, but today numbers 100 or fewer. Protecting its habitat would limit development in parts of South Florida, an explosive political issue.

The administration sparked controversy recently when it announced it would not add the American pika to the endangered species list. Found in California’s Sierra Nevada range and the Rocky Mountains, the pika is a rabbit-like mammal that has been considered symbolic of the impact of global warming because it can overheat and die at temperatures above 78 degrees. However, declaring it endangered could have led to new restrictions on coal mining, oil drilling and other fossil fuel uses. The Fish and Wildlife Service said that although it expects the West to warm, and although pika numbers are declining, there is enough alpine land for the pika to move to higher elevations and not go extinct. “We’re coming off eight years of the Bush administration where they actively worked to cripple endangered species programs,� said biologist Noah Greenwald, endangered species program director for the Center for Biological Diversity, a nonprofit group in Tucson. “We would have liked to have seen a strong effort by the Obama administration. But we just haven’t seen it.�

Many lawsuits

The Associated Press file photos

Meanwhile, the pika, a small mountain-dwelling mammal in the West that can’t tolerate heat above 78 degrees, would have been the first animal in the continental U.S. to receive federal protections primarily because of climate change, but the Obama administration refused to list it under the Endangered Species Act.

The Obama administration’s recent decisions on two iconic species in different parts of country — the Florida panther, left, and the American pika — have angered environmentalists. The panther — Florida’s state animal — once roamed the American South but now numbers below 100. aren’t troubled by the trend, and that fewer species should be listed because endangered-species rules curb important economic activity. “Frankly, the Obama administration is defending the record of the Fish and Wildlife Service under (George W. Bush),� said William Perry Pendley, president of the Mountain States Legal Foundation, a property rights group in Denver that once was run by James Watt, Reagan’s interior secretary. “But the bottom line is that Obama’s been up to enough mischief in other areas — global warming, a war on oil and gas development, that kind of thing — to certainly balance it out.�

Battleground species To be sure, environmentalists have been pleased by some wildlife decisions. Chief among them: Obama’s announcement early in his term that he would overturn a Bush rule that weakened the Endangered Species Act by no longer requiring federal agencies to consult with experts about potential effects on wildlife before allowing projects to go ahead.

Yet the number of animal showdowns is increasing: • The gray wolf. In March of last year, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, a former rancher, announced he would uphold a Bush administration decision to strip endangered protections from the Northern Rockies gray wolf, citing increases in its numbers. Months later, Idaho and Montana opened a sport hunting season and since then, 230 of the estimated 1,350 wolves in the two states have been killed. A dozen environmental groups have sued. • The polar bear. The Obama administration upheld a Bush decision to list the polar bear as threatened, but also agreed to ban consideration of greenhouse gas emissions in reviews of federal projects affecting the bear.

Obama officials said endangered species rules aren’t the right vehicle to address climate change.

In its first year, Obama’s administration added only two new species to the endangered list — the Idaho slick spot pepper grass and a white flower named Phyllostegia hispida, found only on the Hawaiian island of Molokai — the fewest in any president’s first year since Ronald Reagan in 1981.

officials that, in effect, they did not have to bother getting the advice of wildlife experts before taking actions that might harm plants or animals protected by the Endangered Species Act.

Early last month, Obama said that, in effect, they did. At a March 3 visit to the Interior Department marking its 160th anniversary, Obama said he had signed a memorandum directing the Interior

and Commerce Departments to review a regulation that the Bush administration issued Dec. 16.

The regulation lifted longstanding requirements that agencies contemplating actions that might affect endangered species consult with scientists from the Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service and to take their guidance into account.

Until the review is complete, Obama’s memorandum says, agencies must return to the former practice of seeking and acting on scientific advice.

In brief remarks, the president said he had signed the memorandum to “help restore the scientific process to its rightful place� in the working of the Endangered Species Act. “We should be looking for ways to improve it, not weaken it,� Obama said of the act.

T S 25 deaths raise safety questions again

By Lawrence Messina The Associated Press

MONTCOAL, W.Va. — Rescuers held out slim hope Tuesday that four missing coal miners might have survived when a mine repeatedly cited for improperly venting methane gas exploded, killing 25 people in the country’s deadliest underground disaster in a quarter-century.

CHURCH ABUSE

A day after the blast in southern West Virginia, desperate rescuers began boring into the mine in hopes of releasing poisonous gases so crews could go in search of the men. But Gov. Joe Manchin said it could be midday today before much progress is made.

“I don’t want to give anybody any false hope, but by golly, if I’m on that side of the table, and

that’s my father or my brother or my uncle or my cousins, I’m going to have hope,” he said.

Massey Energy Co., which owns the Upper Big Branch mine, was fined more than $382,000 in the past year for repeated serious violations involving its ventilation plan and equipment.

The company’s chief executive said the mine was not unsafe, but federal regulators planned to review its many violations.

In an area where coal is king,

people anxiously awaited word on the missing miners. One resident hung a “Praying 4 Our Miners” banner outside a home.

The death toll was the highest in a U.S. mine since 1984, when 27 people died in a fire at Emery Mining Corp.’s mine in Orangeville, Utah. If the four missing bring the total to 29, it would be the most killed in a U.S. coal mine since a 1970 explosion killed 38 at Finley Coal Co. in Hyden, Ky.

RIO’S WORST RAINS IN HISTORY KILL AT LEAST 95

Indian priest won’t fight extradition to the states New York Times News Service NEW DELHI — A Roman Catholic priest in southern India charged with sexually assaulting a teenage girl in Minnesota in 2004 said Tuesday that he would return to face the charges, though he and his supervising bishop in India said they did not know about the criminal charges until reporters contacted them.

But letters released Tuesday by a lawyer for the Holy See in the United States show the Rev. Joseph Palanivel Jeyapaul was told by his diocesan administrator in India of the accusations in 2005 and urged to cooperate with church and civil authorities. He continues to work in an administrative position in the church.

The lawyer, Jeffrey Lena, said that the Vatican had recommended that the priest be defrocked but that canon law dictated that the decision rested with his superiors in India.

They ordered him to undergo counseling and spend a year in prayer. Criminal charges were filed in Minnesota in December 2006 against Jeyapaul after a teenager accused him of forcing her to have oral sex in 2004, when she was 14.

Jeyapaul said Tuesday he was unaware of any criminal case against him until he was contacted by reporters Monday and that he would be willing to return to the U.S. to prove his innocence. “I am ready to do it,” he said in a telephone interview. “I want to explain myself, that I am innocent.”

Challenges at the Vatican The sex abuse scandal engulfing the church is by far the most tenacious and complex crisis Pope Benedict XVI has faced. And it is a crucial test for a papacy that many Vatican observers say has a deep internal flaw: its management.

Benedict is “a brilliant teacher and preacher, but not a strong administrator,” said George Weigel, an expert on the Vatican and a biographer of John Paul II, in an e-mail message. “To be candid,” Weigel added, “that’s what has seemed to many sympathetic observers of this pontificate that it has been missing thus far.”

That Benedict’s papacy has gone from crisis to crisis points to its difficulties as an ancient institution still struggling with modernity. A decade after a sexual abuse crisis hit the United States, stirring up fierce anger and costing the church an estimated $2 billion in settlements, Vatican experts say the Vatican has not yet constructed an adequate infrastructure for processing abuse cases.

A family is rescued after the heaviest rains in Rio de Janeiro’s history triggered landslides Tuesday that killed at least 95 people as rising water turned roads into rivers and paralyzed Brazil’s second-largest city. The ground gave way in steep hillside slums, cutting red-brown paths of destruction through shantytowns. Concrete and wooden homes were crushed and hurtled downhill, only to bury other structures.

The future host city of the Olympics and football World Cup ground to a near halt as Mayor Eduar-

do Paes urged workers to stay home and closed all schools. Most businesses were shuttered.

Eleven inches of rain fell in less than 24 hours, and more rain began falling early this morning. Officials said potential mudslides threatened at least 10,000 homes in the city of 6 million people.

Neither the 2014 World Cup nor the 2016 Olympics will be held during Brazil’s rainy season. Brazil’s president played down the possibility that similar downpours could wash out the biggest sporting events the country will ever host.

Nuclear strategy splits many differences

By Jonathan S. Landay and Margaret Talev McClatchy-Tribune News Service

With the new nuclear arms strategy he unveiled Tuesday, President Barack Obama aims to prod the world toward disarmament and stronger anti-terrorism efforts by rallying disparate interests — arms controllers, U.S. allies, nuclear and non-nuclear nations, and Republicans and other military hawks back home.

Experts across the spectrum agreed that the Nuclear Posture Review represents a significant retreat by the U.S. from its traditional posture of reserving the right to use nuclear force against other nations, even as it maintains a robust arsenal to check Russia and retains Iran and North Korea as potential targets.

Still, as is characteristic of many of Obama’s major policy initiatives, the new strategy isn’t as far-reaching as liberals had hoped or conservatives had feared. It contains initiatives sought by both sides, including Republican senators whose votes he needs to ratify the new armsreduction treaty that he’s to sign Thursday with Russia.

“It’s not a radical document, not at all,” said Sharon Squassoni, the director of the Proliferation Prevention Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a center-right Washington research group. “It reduces the role of nuclear weapons in our national security strategy. And it doesn’t shy away from uncertainty.”

While the review says the U.S. won’t test new nuclear weapons, it allows what some experts see as a back door for expanding war-

Obama: Nuclear terror is top threat to U.S. Rewriting America’s nuclear strategy, the White House on Tuesday announced a fundamental shift that calls the spread of atomic weapons to rogue states or terrorists a worse threat than the nuclear Armageddon feared during the Cold War. “For the first time, preventing nuclear proliferation and nuclear terrorism is now at the top of America’s nuclear agenda,” Obama said, distancing his administration from the decades-long U.S. focus on arms competition with Russia. “The greatest threat to U.S. and global security is no longer a nuclear exchange between nations, but nuclear terrorism by violent extremists,” he said.

Obama’s announcement set the stage for his trip to Prague on Thursday to sign a new arms reduction agreement with Russia. And it precedes a gathering in Washington on Monday of government leaders from more than 40 countries to discuss improving safeguards against terrorists acquiring nuclear bombs.

head production capacity if circumstances change or if a future president wants to shift course.

The strategy also calls for a major program to modernize the country’s aging nuclear weapons facilities, some of which date back to World War II, at a cost of about $5 billion over the next five years, acknowledging but not entirely satisfying a key Republican demand.

While it says that the U.S. would no longer threaten nuclear force against non-nuclear powers that launched biological or chemical attacks, they would have to be in compliance with their obligations under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Moreover, the administration reserved the right to change that policy in response to advances by U.S. foes in biological warfare technology.

Baja quake boosts risk of California temblors Bulletin wire reports The Baja California earthquake — the strongest to hit the region in more than a century — jostled fault lines, triggered 500 aftershocks in a day and will leave the area shaking for weeks, geologists said.

Baja, a state in Mexico bordering Southern California, experienced at least five aftershocks of magnitude 5 or greater and can expect continued tremors for a month or more as the earth settles, said Paul Earle, a seismologist at the U.S. Geological Survey.

While the risk of an even larger earthquake is elevated, it diminishes each day that passes.

The magnitude 7.2 Baja earthquake occurred Sunday and was the third powerful temblor to roil the Americas this year, following one in Haiti and one in Chile.

No consensus exists among scientists over whether a large earthquake increases or decreases the likelihood of a bigger future temblor, said Morgan Page, a geologist at the geologic survey in Pasadena, Calif. Small tremors boost the chances of triggering a larger quake, she said. Some scientists theorize that large earthquakes behave differently, relieving so much pressure they reduce the chances of another big one.

7.7 quake strikes Indonesian island A 7.7 earthquake shook Indonesia’s northwest island of Sumatra early this morning, prompting a brief tsunami warning and sending residents rushing for higher ground. There were scattered reports of injuries, but only minor damage was reported in most areas. At least five strong aftershocks measuring up to 5.2 were recorded.

A 2004 tsunami triggered by a magnitude-9.2 earthquake in the same part of Indonesia killed 230,000 people in a dozen countries on the Indian Ocean basin.

Marijuana Continued from A1 At the same time, the Obama administration gave users and distributors some breathing room by signaling in October that it would scale back on prosecuting them as long as they comply with state law.

Eighteen states discussed medical marijuana through legislation or citizen initiatives this year.

Most visibly, California election officials announced March 24 that this year’s ballot would include a question to allow local governments to legalize and tax marijuana, casting a spotlight on the state that first legalized medical marijuana in 1996.

The Washington state proposal died in committee, but Dickerson, who chairs the House Human Services Committee, expects to reintroduce it.

While most state legislative efforts are likely to fail, a victory in California could encourage other states to follow suit just as they did when California approved medical marijuana. A 2009 poll found 56 percent of California voters support outright legalization. Estimates from California’s Board of Equalization peg the amount the state could raise from marijuana legalization at $1.4 billion.

But those projections rest on shaky assumptions that the state could keep track of growers and that distributors would accurately disclose their sales, if at all. And since marijuana is still illegal under federal law, it’s unclear how the Obama administration would ultimately react to more permissive state marijuana laws.

Officials have struggled for years with the legal questions posed by state and federal marijuana laws that appear to be in conflict. “The more people talk about marijuana laws, the more people come to the conclusion that they’ve completely failed, so we’re definitely optimistic here,” said Aaron Smith, California policy director for the Marijuana Policy Project.

Meanwhile, opponents of legalization in California are gearing up for their own campaign, knowing that the rest of the country will be watching. “We have a lot of pressure on us,” says Aimee Hendle, statewide coordinator of Californians for Drug Free Youth.

She sees marijuana advocates as opportunists exploiting the state’s financial distress.

“They are seeing the vulnerability of the citizens of California with the state of our state,” she says.

Route to new revenue Arizona is also going this route for new tax revenue. Senators there have already approved levying the state sales tax on medical marijuana, even though voters won’t weigh in on medical marijuana until this November’s ballot. In Nevada, marijuana advocates are busy collecting signatures to place a legalization measure on the state’s 2012 ballot. Rather than leaving the question of legalization up to local governments, as California’s initiative does, Nevada’s proposal would legalize and tax marijuana statewide. Nevada voters have already approved medical marijuana.

David Schwartz, campaign manager for Nevadans for Sensible Drug Laws, will be watching his counterparts in California. “If they win, it will be a stark event in the long battle to end marijuana prohibitions in this country,” he says.

In South Dakota, Emmet Reistroffer is also among those following the news from California.

Last year, he took time off from the University of South Dakota to gather signatures for a medical marijuana ballot initiative. It was a grass-roots effort, drawing 40 volunteers, almost no national attention and no funding from major marijuana policy groups. Reistroffer, a Sioux Falls 20-year-old, took a part-time job at a local bar to make ends meet.

While he says he doesn’t necessarily support outright legalization, he wants to make marijuana accessible for patients like his mother, who suffers from lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.

She has used marijuana in the past, he says.

“While I was growing up I had friends in DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education),” he says.

I’ve always looked at it very differently. I’ve always seen this injustice and felt obligated to do something about it.”

Reistroffer plans to spend his summer trying to convince voters at county fairs. In 2006, voters turned down a medical marijuana measure on a close vote, the only state that has ever done so. If the measure passes this year, it will mark a significant shift in South Dakota’s attitude toward marijuana, he says.

A history of marijuana laws 1972: A commission led by former Pennsylvania governor Raymond Shafer recommends to President Richard Nixon that marijuana be decriminalized.

1973: Oregon decriminalizes possession of less than 1 ounce of marijuana.

1975: Colorado decriminalizes possession of 1 ounce or less of marijuana. • Ohio decriminalizes possession of 100 grams or less of marijuana.

1976: California decriminalizes possession of 28.5 grams or less of marijuana. • Maine decriminalizes possession of 1.25 ounces or less of marijuana. • Minnesota decriminalizes possession of 42.5 grams or less of marijuana.

1978: Nebraska decriminalizes possession of 1 ounce or less of marijuana.

1981: Ronald Reagan becomes president. His administration would take a tough stand against drugs, discouraging states from softening their marijuana policies.

1996: California is the first state to legalize medical marijuana.

2003: Maryland establishes a defendant’s medical condition as an affirmative defense in marijuana prosecutions.

2005: The U.S. Supreme Court finds that the federal government could take steps prohibiting cultivation and distribution of marijuana despite state laws allowing medical marijuana in Gonzales v. Raich.

The ruling reinforces the federal government’s supremacy over states in this area.

2009: The U.S. Department of Justice signals it will not aggressively prosecute suppliers or users of marijuana if they are complying with state medical marijuana laws.

How much revenue?

But states shouldn’t count on a revenue bonanza from marijuana since distributors still risk federal prosecution by emerging from the shadows, according to Robert Mikos, a Vanderbilt University law professor.

Ideally, the thousands of smallscale marijuana farm operations would consolidate into larger groups that would be easy for states to tax, but the federal ban makes that unlikely, he says.

“If you get too big, you attract the attention of the federal government. If you’re a mom-andpop marijuana distributor in California right now, you have almost no concern about the federal ban,” Mikos says.

Also, states would have to keep track of growers who have paid taxes. “That’s a goldmine of information for the federal government,” Mikos says. “If California requires marijuana distributors to keep records of all their sales, the federal government could sweep in, take that information and use it to prosecute these people.”

In October, the Justice Department released a memo indicating it would back off from prosecuting medical marijuana users who are complying with state law, but the memo did not say the department would tolerate outright legalization in states, opening up more legal ambiguities.

“The federal government will continue to try to combat recreational marijuana, so California is kind of getting ahead of itself,” Mikos says.

But Hendle and other opponents of legalization will also keep up their fight.

“Even if you say it’s only for people over the age of 21, that’s what they say about alcohol and look at all the underage drinking that we have,” she says. “We’re now going to make this a larger problem.”

Recession likely behind low birth rate

By Mike Stobbe The Associated Press

ATLANTA — U.S. births fell in 2008, likely because of the recession, updated government figures confirm. The one exception to the trend was the birth rate among women in their 40s, who perhaps felt they didn’t have the luxury of waiting for better economic times.

The birth rate for women in their early 40s rose a surprising 4 percent over the previous year, reaching its highest mark since 1967. The rate for women in their late 40s also rose, slightly.

But birth rates fell for teen mothers, as well as women in their 20s and 30s.

Experts don’t know for certain why so many are delaying hav-

ing babies, though some suspect the economy is a big factor. However, “you get to the point where the biological clock starts ticking and people realize they have to do it,” said Trussell, who was not involved in the research.

The new report on births was issued Tuesday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

It’s based on a review of more than

99 percent of birth certificates for 2008 — the first full year of the recession. Overall, about 4.2 million babies were born that year, a 2 percent drop from 2007. It’s the first annual decline in births since the start of the decade.

Experts say the most likely explanations are the recession and a decline in immigration to the United States.

MORE VIOLENCE IN IRAQ

50 dead as bombings stoke fears of warfare New York Times News Service Deadly blasts shook Baghdad for the second time in three days Tuesday, deepening fears of a new outbreak of insurgent and sectarian violence.

At least seven bombings of residential areas of the Iraqi capital, both Shiite and Sunni, killed 50 people and wounded more than 140. The violence came against a backdrop of continuing political instability after March 7 parliamentary elections left no single group able to form a government, forcing a scramble to form coalitions.

WikiLeaks Continued from A1 Accordingly, the site has become a thorn in the side of authorities in the United States and abroad. With the Iraq attack video, the clearinghouse for sensitive documents is edging closer toward a form of investigative journalism and to advocacy.

“That’s arguably what spy agencies do — high-tech investigative journalism,” Julian Assange, one of the site’s founders, said in an interview Tuesday. “It’s time that the media upgraded its capabilities along those lines.”

Assange, an Australian activist and journalist, founded the site three years ago along with a group of like-minded activists and computer experts. Since then, WikiLeaks has published documents about toxic dumping in Africa, protocols from Guantanamo Bay, e-mails from Sarah Palin’s personal account and 9⁄11 pager messages. Today there is a core group of five full-time volunteers, according to Daniel Schmitt, a site spokesman, and the group can call on 800 to 1,000 people for expertise on topics like encryption, programming and writing up news releases.

Shaping the news The site is not shy about its intent to shape media coverage, and Assange said he considers himself both a journalist and an advocate; should he be forced to choose one, he would choose advocate. WikiLeaks didn’t merely post the 38-minute-long video, it used the label “Collateral Murder” and said it depicted “indiscriminate” and “unprovoked” slaying. (The Pentagon defended the killings and said no disciplinary action was taken at the time of the incident.)

“From my human point of view, I couldn’t believe it would be so easy to wreak that kind of havoc on the city, when they

A similar political void after the 2005 parliamentary vote preceded Iraq’s bloody sectarian warfare of 2006 and 2007, from which the country has only begun to emerge. There are also new concerns that Iraq’s army and police may drift back into sectarianism. The explosions on Tuesday came after at least 30 people were killed and more than 240 were wounded during attacks Sunday on diplomatic buildings in Baghdad, including the Iranian Embassy.

U.S. combat troops are scheduled to leave Iraq by Aug. 31.

can’t see what is really going on there,” Schmitt said in an interview from Germany on Monday.

The Web site also posted a 17-minute edited version, which proved to be much more widely viewed on YouTube than the full version. Critics contend that the shorter video was misleading because it did not make clear that the attacks took place amid clashes in the neighborhood and that one of the men was carrying a rocket-propelled grenade.

By releasing such a graphic video, one that a media organization had tried in vain to get through traditional channels, WikiLeaks has inserted itself into the national discussion about the role of journalism in the digital age. Where judges and plaintiffs could once stop or delay publication with a court order, WikiLeaks exists in a digital sphere where information becomes instantly available.

“The most significant thing about the release of the Baghdad video is that several million more people are on the same page,” with knowledge of WikiLeaks, said Lisa Lynch, an assistant professor of journalism at Concordia University in Montreal, who recently published a paper about the site. “It is amazing that outside of the conventional channels of information something like this can happen.”

Reuters had tried for 21⁄2 years through the Freedom of Information Act to obtain the Iraq video to no avail. WikiLeaks, as always, refuses to say how it obtained the video and credits only “our courageous source.”

Assange said “research institutions” offered to help decrypt the Army video, but he declined to detail how they went about it.

After decrypting the attack video, WikiLeaks in concert with an Icelandic television channel sent two people to Baghdad last weekend to gather information about the killings, at a cost of $50,000, the site said.

A woman grieves at the scene of a blast in central Baghdad, where bombs ripped through apartment buildings and a market in mostly Shiite areas of the Iraqi capital on Tuesday, killing 50 people in postelection bloodshed that threatens to rekindle sectarian warfare that nearly destroyed the country three years ago.

editor in chief, said Tuesday the video was disturbing to watch “but also important to watch.” He said he hopes to meet with the Pentagon “to press the need to learn lessons from this tragedy.”

WikiLeaks publishes its material on its own site, which is housed on a few dozen servers around the globe, including in Sweden, Belgium and the United States, jurisdictions the organization considers friendly to journalists and document leakers, Schmitt said.

Everywhere, yet nowhere By being everywhere yet in no exact place, WikiLeaks is, in effect, beyond the reach of any institution or government that hopes to silence it.

Because it relies on donations, however, WikiLeaks says it has struggled to keep its servers online. It has found moral (but not financial) support from some news organizations, such as The Guardian newspaper in the United Kingdom, which said in January that “If you want to read the exposes of the future, it’s time to chip in.”

On Tuesday, WikiLeaks claimed to have another encrypted video, allegedly showing a U.S. airstrike in Afghanistan that killed 97 civilians last year, and used the opportunity to ask for donations.

WikiLeaks has grown increasingly controversial as it has published more material. (The U.S. Army called it a threat to its operations in a report last month.)

Many have tried to silence the site; in Britain, WikiLeaks has been used a number of times to evade injunctions on publication by courts who ruled that the material would violate the privacy of the people involved. These courts, too, reversed themselves when they discovered how ineffectual their rulings were.

An early attempt to shut down the site involved a federal district court judge in California. In 2008, Judge Jeffrey White ordered the American version of the site shut down after it published confidential documents concerning a subsidiary of a Swiss bank. Two weeks later he reversed himself, in part recognizing that the order had little effect because the same material could be accessed on a number of other “mirror sites.”

“We live in an age when people can do some good things and people can do some terrible things without accountability necessarily in a court of law,” White said.

Senate Continued from A1 “It comes from … having written a number of things having been around public life for a very long time,” said Greg Leo, communications director for the Oregon Republican Party.

That same record, though, includes endorsement of some issues that have proved politically divisive among moderates in the past, including privatizing Social Security and upholding Oregon’s Measure 37, a ballot initiative which effectively repealed many land use laws in 2004. The law was mostly reversed in 2007 by another ballot initiative, Measure 49. And he’s risked the wrath of some conservatives with a handsoff stance on abortion rights and gay marriage.

But Huffman said his first priority is scaling back federal spending, cutting taxes and streamlining regulations on businesses, which he said is needed to boost the economy.

“If we had an economy that wasn’t taxed in unpredictable ways and had a regulatory world in which these businesses could operate with some level of predictability without the threat of various new regulatory regimes off in the future, then we’d have a vibrant economy and Oregon state would have a much better revenue picture than it’s had,” Huffman said.

Paring regulations is also Huffman’s solution to the high unemployment rates in Central and Eastern Oregon. He favors allowing more logging and resource extraction on federal lands. Wyden’s proposed forest bill, which would mandate higher timber harvest targets in exchange for stronger old-growth protections, doesn’t do enough for the timber industry, Huffman said.

“I think it’s a step in the right direction, but I don’t think it goes anywhere near far enough,” he said.

Although several logging companies and the American Forest Resources Council have endorsed the bill, Huffman said they can do better. “They should be grasping for more than that,” he said.

Veterans Continued from A1 The current Bend VA clinic, located just north of St. Charles Bend, is about 10,000 square feet.

The new clinic will be between 20,000 and 24,000 square feet, McAleer said. The clinic won’t move into a new facility until sometime after the VA’s current lease expires in December 2010, and maybe not for a year after that, he said.

Alan Allison is an Air Force veteran who is the volunteer driver of a Disabled American Veterans van that takes up to 10 vets to Portland five days a week. The van leaves Bend at

On health care reform, Huffman said he would support efforts to repeal the measure that became law last month, although he said amending the law may be more realistic. Huffman blamed Wyden for voting for the bill and abandoning reform ideas that Wyden had pushed for earlier in the debate.

“He was in position to have real influence,” Huffman said. “He could have made some demands and gotten some of the things he had previously said was good ideas.”

Huffman’s most controversial writing might be the signature he put on a 2005 petition. That document, circulated by the libertarian Cato Institute and conservative FreedomWorks, called for at least partial privatization of Social Security, in order to give seniors more control over their benefits.

Asked about that decision, Huffman said he still supports at least some kind of privatization of the program.

“I think Social Security is in desperate need of some kind of reform or it’s going to go bellyup and we’re going to have a disastrous situation on our hands,” Huffman said. “I think some elements of a privatized approach in which people have some control over how their money is being used makes sense. I would continue to support that option. I’m not saying any particular form of that, and probably not total privatization.”

For conservatives, Huffman’s libertarian streak on social issues — he supports allowing gay marriage and abortion rights — might cause the most trouble. He said he wouldn’t change his views to conform to the Oregon Republican Party platform, which says the group “will support, financially or with in-kind contributions, only those candidates or nominees of the party who support measures to end so-called ‘partial birth abortions.’”

“I’m really not happy with those kinds of pronouncements from the Republican Party or any other kind of entity,” Huffman said. “It’s really distorting of our politics.”

Federal Election Commission records show that Huffman was a regular contributor to Republican

6 a.m. and begins the return trip at about 2 p.m., Allison said. While veterans aren’t crazy about six hours of driving, Allison said he rarely hears complaints.

“A lot of those vets, hey, that’s the only medical care they’ve got,” Allison said.

The new clinic won’t end the long drives completely, McAleer said. For more involved procedures, such as surgeries and cancer treatments, the Portland VA Medical Center will still be the only place for Oregon vets.

Philiben said her group and others will have to find a better way to get veterans to the new clinic, given the gaps in Central Oregon’s public transportation.

Gordon Smith, former President George W. Bush and the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

It’s unclear how much money Huffman and other Republican candidates have raised to date.

That will become public sometime after the Federal Election Commission reporting deadline for campaign contributions on April 15.

Huffman leaned on his tenure as dean of Lewis and Clark Law School as something that allows him to understand the concerns of small business owners. Managing the school’s faculty and programs, “It was really like running a small business,” Huffman said.

Asked about his responsibilities, current law school dean Bob Klonoff said the job entails proposing a budget, conducting community outreach, overseeing hiring of faculty and staff, fundraising, designing a curriculum and planning law school conferences and events, with active involvement from faculty

“We’re going to have to step up,” she said.

Some local vets are skeptical the new clinic will happen at all.

“When I see it, I’ll believe it,” said 59-year-old Andy Carroll, of Bend, a former medic in Vietnam who occasionally takes the van to Portland.

“They always promise things and then three years down the road, you might get another whisper out of it. … Things are very slow in getting anything taken care of for the veterans.”

and staff. In the budget process, Klonoff, who emphasized that he wasn’t endorsing any candidate in the Senate race, said the dean proposes budgets, which are then subject to a faculty vote and review by the college’s board of trustees.

Bill Funk was the only one of four Lewis and Clark Law School professors contacted by The Bulletin who would agree to speak on the record about Huffman’s tenure as dean. Half a dozen other professors didn’t return messages by late Tuesday afternoon.

Funk, who has taught at Lewis and Clark since 1983, said Huffman was a successful leader at the school for the first decade on the job.

“For most of that period of time everybody loved him and he was a great dean,” Funk said. “We have more clinics and centers and institutes now largely because of his leadership.”

Near the end of Huffman’s run as dean, an initiative to overhaul some pay incentives for faculty led to a split among professors, Funk said. Rather than building consensus, Huffman seemed content to push through the changes he wanted, Funk said.

“He got a little impatient and the faculty didn’t like that as much so they were less happy with him,” Funk said.

Huffman didn’t disagree that his later agenda split the faculty.

But he said it was because he felt changing professor pay was important enough to pass with a slight majority of faculty members supporting it.

“It’s probably true there were at least a handful of faculty that felt I was not as interested in trying to reach consensus as I had been in the past,” Huffman said. “I felt these were important enough issues that I felt we needed to try to accomplish them.”

The other candidates seeking the Republican nomination to the Senate seat held by Wyden are Walter Woodland, Keith Waldron, Tom Stutzman, Robin Parker, Loren Later and Shane Dinkel.

Immigration legislation seen as unlikely in 2010 Hearst News Service Despite his health care victory, President Barack Obama’s renewed pledge to overhaul immigration laws this year remains in serious doubt.

Thousands of pro-immigration activists attending a recent rally heard Obama vow to forge a bipartisan consensus to overcome the gridlock and bickering that has doomed reform legislation in the past. But the reaction to that promise has been a cold dose of political realism in and out of Congress.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has said she wants the Senate to address the issue first, but there is no Senate bill.

With the legislative calendar

crowded, and with most lawmakers working with an eye on the November elections, the political will to tackle such a divisive issue is nowhere in evidence.

Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., and Sen. Lindsey Graham, RS.C., have drafted broad outlines of what they think a Senate bill should include. Following the raw feelings of the health care debate, even Graham, the one Republican working with Democrats on immigration, is threatening to retreat.

Nearly a third of Senate Democrats and a majority of Republicans voted to block the bipartisan bill in 2007 that would have granted citizenship for the roughly 11 million unauthorized immigrants in this country.

Change afoot as Britain finally schedules election for May 6 The Associated Press LONDON — Britain is bracing for a May 6 general election that may alter the landscape of its politics — a race that offers at least three unpredictable outcomes and one of the most dramatic since Tony Blair defeated the Conservatives in 1997.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown announced the longawaited election date Tuesday as the resurgent Conservatives prepared for battle against the bedraggled Labour incumbents with the nation drowning in debt after a golden age of economic prosperity.

Youthful and charismatic Conservative leader David Cameron once seemed certain to grab power after 13 years of Labour rule — but tightening polls and quirks of the British election system leave the outcome uncertain. Whoever

wins, Britain could well become an altered state with higher taxes, fewer services, tougher business regulations and less willingness to join expensive U.S.-led military campaigns.

The election comes at a bruising time for Britain’s main political parties — all three were stung in a scandal about expenses that exposed lawmakers who filed claims for everything from pornography to chandeliers at their country estates. Voters, meanwhile, lost jobs and homes as Britain struggled with the worst recession since World War II and the largest deficit among the Group of 7 nations.

911 Continued from A1 McDonald earns $98,137 a year, and has continued to receive a paycheck since she was placed on leave Dec. 3. At the same time, Interim Director Andy Jordan has earned more than $8,000 a month and the investigator hired to conduct a personnel investigation and produce a four-page report charged $5,554, county officials have said.

The 911 board first learned of McDonald’s affair with Kyle Joye from Deschutes County Sheriff Larry Blanton in early November, according to notes written

by Bend Fire Chief Larry Huhn, the current chairman of the 911 board. The Bulletin obtained the notes through a public records request.

Blanton heard about the relationship from Deputy Kyle Joye’s supervisor, according to Huhn’s notes. The sheriff wanted to place McDonald on paid administrative leave immediately and launch an investigation.

Blanton could not be reached for comment on that point later Tuesday.

Huhn and another fire chief on the 911 board who questioned McDonald about the situation said she lied to them by indicating the relationship was platonic, not sexual. McDonald has maintained the chiefs only asked whether she was having an inappropriate relationship, and she answered truthfully that it was not inappropriate because she and Kyle Joye were separated from their spouses.

Handling is criticized Kanner said he has been uncomfortable with the entire process, including the two options before the 911 board Tuesday: firing McDonald, or reinstating her as 911 director. He did not support either one, and would have preferred to demote McDonald or move her to a job in a different county department.

Kanner said he was also uncomfortable the McDonald situation came to the attention of the 911 board by rumor and innuendo, and with Theresa Joye’s comments suggesting she “set out to get Becky fired and then used the (911 governing board) as a tool to achieve that.”

At the same time, McDonald shared some responsibility for her situation, Kanner said, because an employee in her position should have exercised better judgment.

“I always looked at you as a person who had a bright future in public administration,” Kanner said. “I think that someone who’s as bright and capable as you should have at some time paused and said, ‘This is the husband of a subordinate employee.’”

Other members of the 911 board also critiqued how the district dealt with McDonald’s situation.

“I’m not happy with the way we handled this process,” said Chief Mike Kennedy of the Sunriver Police Department. Members of the 911 board did not receive the record of the McDonald investigation until right before

Anger rises in Australia over Chinese coal freighter New York Times News Service Anger rose in Australia on Tuesday, including some blunt language from Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, over the off-course Chinese coal freighter that beached on the Great Barrier Reef last weekend and threatens to befoul its pristine corals with leaking fuel oil.

Rudd on Tuesday flew over the stricken vessel, which had strayed at least 71⁄2 miles, outside the authorized shipping channel, and promised afterward a full investigation to identify and punish those responsible. He noted the vessel’s owners could be liable for a fine exceeding $5 million.

“From where I sit, it is outrageous that any vessel could find itself 12 kilometers off course, it seems, in the Great Barrier Reef,” he told Australian news organizations after the flyover.

The Chinese government and the ship’s owner, Cosco, a statecontrolled giant, have been silent in response to the grounding of the Shen Neng 1, which occurred in a section of the reef designated as a marine park and subject to extra environmental protection.

McDonald’s pre-termination hearing, Kennedy said.

Chief Tim Moor of the Redmond Fire Department also said he “was not pleased with the process.” Communication was difficult, as the 911 board’s members tried to schedule a time they could all meet and get the leaders of seven different law enforcement agencies to come to a decision.

Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire Chief Tay Robertson defended the process during Tuesday’s

C OV ER S T ORY meeting.

“While I have been somewhat frustrated with the timelines and delays, I would rather have erred on the side of looking at this from every angle and working with Becky to try to find some solution prior to this pretty much black-and-white decision point,” Robertson said.

Blanton disagreed with other board members’ criticisms of the process. County policy required the 911 board investigate Theresa Joye’s allegations, and “that’s

going to lead you to asking some very difficult, personal questions because that’s what’s based on the allegations,” Blanton said.

Long-term questions about 911 Jordan, the 911 interim director, said he is asking each member of the district’s board for suggestions on how to restructure or improve the district, and will report the results at a 911 board meeting later this month.

Huhn declined to discuss specific ideas to change the 911 district.

Blanton said recently that one idea is to move the 911 dispatch center under a larger agency, possibly without a specific 911 director. Deschutes County Commissioner Tammy Baney also said recently she heard one idea was to move the 911 center under the Sheriff’s Office.

Jordan declined to provide details of board members’ suggestions, and said he did not want to

upset 911 employees by revealing ideas for changes the district might not ultimately pursue.

Bend Police Chief Sandi Baxter said the board has not talked about specific ideas.

“Nothing has been decided or even discussed yet, as far as Becky’s replacement or with the management of 911,” Baxter said.

Canada’s loonie surpasses U.S. dollar NEW YORK — Canada’s dollar was worth more than the U.S. greenback for the first time since July 2008 on the back of the rising price of crude oil and the prospect of higher interest rates.

Canada’s dollar, dubbed the loonie for the aquatic bird on the C$1 coin, last traded through parity with the U.S. dollar on July 22, 2008, 11 days after crude, the country’s biggest export, reached a record $147.27 a barrel. Oil traded near a 17- month high Tuesday.

“As we trade around it and move through it, the parity level becomes much less of a target and more of an accepted norm,” said Sacha Tihanyi, a currency strategist in Toronto at Bank of Nova Scotia, Canada’s third-largest bank. “Everything continues to be in line for Canadian dollar strength.”

The currency traded at C$1.0001 at 2:20 p.m. in Toronto, compared with from C$1.0022 Monday. One Canadian dollar buys 99.99 U.S. cents.

BMW motorcycle enthusiasts Court curbs to converge in Central Oregon FCC authority Event expected to bring as much as $3M to the region on Web traffic

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

Some of the 6,000-plus BMW motorcycle enthusiasts planning to roll into Redmond this summer for their annual rally have already started registering for the event.

The BMW Motorcycle Owners of America has signed up about 1,000 members so far for its International Rally, which will be held at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center from July 15-18. It will be followed about two weeks later by a motor home convention.

The motorcycle gathering, dubbed Ride Rally Relax, is ex-

pected to pump $2 million to $3 million or more into the region. It will be the second time the BMW motorcycle owners converge on Redmond for their annual rally.

The group held its 2001 rally at

the fairgrounds, and a return engagement speaks well of the city and the fairgrounds.

Redmond will be only the third location to host an annual rally a second time in 38 years, said Ray Zimmerman, executive director of the Missouri-based organization.

“The fairgrounds there (are) fantastic,” he said Monday.

The other locations to hold multiple rallies are Oshkosh, Wis., and Missoula, Mont., he said.

The motorcycle owners like to hold their events at fairgrounds, where they can find camping nearby.

WASHINGTON — A federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday that regulators had limited power over Web traffic under current law. The decision will allow Internet service companies to block or slow specific sites and charge video sites to deliver their content faster to users.

The court decision was a setback to efforts by the Federal Communications Commission to require companies to give Web users equal access to all content, even if some of that content is clogging the network.

The court ruling, which came after Comcast asserted that it had the right to slow its cable customers’ access to a file-sharing service called BitTorrent, could prompt efforts in Congress to change the law in order to give the FCC explicit authority to regulate Internet service.

That could prove difficult politically, however, since some conservative Republicans oppose giving the agency more power on the grounds that Internet providers should be able to decide what services they offer and at what price.

Commercial center takes shape

GM begins winding down Hummer SOUTHFIELD, Mich. — General Motors said Tuesday it will wind down its Hummer brand and offer rebates of as much as $6,000 to sell remaining sport-utility vehicles.

Jim Bunnell, GM’s general director for dealer network support, told retailers in conference call that they will get letters within days about ending their franchises, Nick Richards, a company spokesman, said in an interview.

Shedding Hummer was part of GM’s plan to pare its U.S. brands to four from eight after bankruptcy. GM has sold one of the four brands it explored selling.

“Anyone who buys it needs cash to make it work,” said Jim Hall, principal of 2953 Analytics, a consulting firm in Birmingham, Mich. “That’s why GM has been turning buyers away left, right and center.”

American consumers are finally coming out of hiding.

After months of pennypinching amid the recession, new figures — showing an improving job market, rising factory output and increased retail sales — suggest that consumers are no longer restricting their budgets to necessities like food and medicine. They are starting to buy clothes, jewelry and even cars again.

The mood has gone from panicked to cautious and now, as Mark Zandi, chief economist for Moody’s Economy. com put it, some consumers are “almost a bit giddy.”

After the financial crisis hit in late 2008, consumers retrenched

heavily. And in the months that followed, there were fears that newly frugal Americans would increase their savings so much there was no hope that consumer spending could be a

factor in a recovery.

That was a troubling prospect because consumers have been the drivers of economic growth after past recessions.

Crestview Cable will raise most of its cable television rates in La Pine come May 1, according to the company.

The roughly 5 percent increase affects all service tiers except for the company’s basic cable service, which will remain at $15.99 per month.

“This rate increase reflects the increase in programming costs for each programming tier,” said Tony Ashcroft, the manager for Crestview Cable.

Ashcroft said the last increase for La Pine customers was December 2008. The company declined to state how many cus-

tomers it has in La Pine.

The company’s four cable television service tiers above basic will increase by roughly $2 to $3 per month.

Expanded Basic will increase from $34.98 to $36.93, Digital Choice will increase from $41.77 to $43.92, Digital Plus will rise from $48.76 to $51.41, and Digital Premier will increase from $52.10 to $54.75.

Crestview is based in Prineville and serves customers there in addition to La Pine, Madras, Culver, Metolius and Crooked River Ranch. It also provides cable television service to Wallowa County.

Taxpayer put country before his own $600 tax bonus

By David Kocieniewski New York Times News Service

A flaw in the most recent version of TurboTax, the nation’s most popular tax-preparation software, may have caused thousands of retired federal employees to overstate their medical deductions and unwittingly underpay the Internal Revenue Service, according to federal officials.

The program error affects federal retirees using versions of the 1099-R form who have health insurance premiums paid by their pension administrators.

It can lead filers to inadvertently deduct the same expenses twice, leading to a miscalculation of the tax owed and an underpayment of hundreds of dollars on the typical return.

Officials for Intuit, the Mountain View, Calif., company that produces the program, were alerted to the problem last week, after a retired federal worker from Virginia noticed that TurboTax had automatically doublecounted his medical insurance premiums as deductions.

When questioned about the problem by a reporter last week, Intuit said it had begun working with the IRS to revise its computer-prompted instructions on TurboTax and prevent such errors in the future.

TurboTax, owned by Intuit since 1993, dominates the tax preparation software business in this country and accounts for about 75 percent of the market.

The program has nonetheless been troubled by occasional glitches and security breaches, notably in 2007, when so many last-minute filers overwhelmed the TurboTax servers that many returns failed to make it to the IRS by the filing deadline.

Both IRS and Intuit officials were scrambling to gauge the scope of the problem involving the federal retirees, but said only a limited number of returns appeared to be involved.

The IRS issued a statement Tuesday saying that, after consulting with Intuit, it believed the problem was confined to a small subset of filers — retired federal workers (filing a CSA1099-R form) and survivors of federal employees (using a CSF-1099-R).

Julie Miller, an Intuit spokeswoman, said that the company suspected that the total number of filers affected by the mistake would not exceed “several thousand” because it only affected federal retirees who used TurboTax, itemized their deductions and had health care costs that exceeded 7.5 percent of their adjusted gross income.

Intuit policy is to pay any interest or penalties assessed to filers who have underpaid their taxes because of the glitch. Miller said that under the TurboTax satisfaction guarantee, customers are also entitled to a refund for the purchase price of the software if they are unhappy with it for any reason.

The man who reported the problem, Charlie Freret of Chantilly, Va., stumbled across the error while using a free version of TurboTax to e-file a tax return he had already prepared on paper.

Freret, who retired as a lawyer in the Department of Veterans Affairs in 2004, said he had hoped that e-filing would allow him to get his refund faster. But the tax return calculated by TurboTax promised him a refund $600 larger than he was entitled to because it automatically added his medical insurance premiums to his deductions — after the computer-generated prompt had instructed him to enter his health care expenses manually.

Freret said he figured that he probably could have taken the $600 bonus and never been caught because retiree medical benefits seem unlikely to flag an audit. But as a federal employee, he also worried that millions of other taxpayers might do the same, further depleting the nation’s already troubled treasury.

“It seemed like the right thing to do,” said Freret, 63, adding that he has always tried to adhere to the code of conduct instilled at his alma mater, Washington and Lee University. “The honor code called for you to be a Southern gentleman: ‘Don’t lie, don’t cheat and don’t steal,’” he said.

A legal way to print money: Change the fonts you use

By Dinesh Ramde The Associated Press

MILWAUKEE — Here’s a way you might save $20 this year: Change the font in the documents you print.

Because different fonts require different amounts of ink to print, you could be buying new printer cartridges less often if you wrote in, say, Century Gothic rather than Arial. Schools and businesses could save thousands of dollars with font changes.

Data on the subject from Printer.com, a Dutch company that evaluates printer attributes, persuaded the University of WisconsinGreen Bay to make a switch.

Diane Blohowiak, coordinator of information-technology user support, has asked faculty and staff to use Century Gothic for all printed documents. The school also plans to change its e-mail system so it uses Century Gothic.

“The feedback we’ve gotten so far has been positive,” she said. “Century Gothic is very readable.”

The school of 6,500 students spends about $100,000 per year on ink and toner cartridges. Although students and staff can change the default font to something more ink-intensive, Blohowiak said the university expects to save $5,000 to $10,000 per year with the font switch.

When Printer.com tested popular fonts for their inkfriendly ways, Century Gothic and Times New Roman topped the list. Calibri, Verdana, Arial and Sans Serif were next, followed by Trebuchet, Tahoma and Franklin Gothic Medium. Century Gothic uses about 30 percent less ink than Arial.

The amount of ink a font drains is mainly driven by the thickness of its lines. A font with “narrow” or “light” in its name is usually better than its “bold” or “black” counterpart, said Thom Brown, an ink researcher at Hewlett-Packard

Co., the world’s top maker of printers.

Also, serif fonts — those with short horizontal lines at the top and bottom of characters — tend to use thinner lines and thus less ink than a “sans serif” counterpart.

But while using less ink at home can help you buy roughly one fewer printer cartridge each year, it’s not necessarily better for the environment.

That’s because some fonts that use less ink, including Century Gothic, are also wider. A document that’s one page in Arial could extend to a second page if printed in Century Gothic.

Blohowiak said her research suggests that ink comprises the main cost of a printout, but the environmental costs of paper are probably higher.

“Maybe the individual characters use less ink, but if you’re using more paper, that’s not so green, is it?” said Allan Haley, director of “words and letters” at Monotype Imaging Inc. in Woburn, Mass., which developed Century Gothic.

Also, Century Gothic was designed for limited blocks of text such as titles and headlines, not for full documents, said Haley, who describes fonts as his “children.” Despite Printer.com’s research and UW-Green Bay’s

for a more stable global financial system,” he said. The two nations can help create economic growth that is “less dependent on the willingness of Americans to live beyond our means,” he said.

Fast-growing emerging-market countries like India, Brazil and China make up an increasing share of the world’s economy and are expected to account for more than a third of global gross domestic product this year.

Mukherjee said Tuesday that discussions with Geithner had focused on “global development with a special emphasis on U.S. and Indian economies” and that both sides had discussed monetary and fiscal policies, banking regulations and managing capital flow, and infrastructure finance.

Later on Tuesday, Geithner told the Indian television channel NDTV that he was “confident that China will decide it is in their interest to resume the move to a more flexible exchange rate that they began some years ago and suspended in the midst of the crisis.” Still, he stressed that it was China’s “choice” to do so.

The U.S. Treasury Department said over the weekend that it would delay a report to Congress that could have charged China with currency manipulation.

India’s finance secretary, Ashok Chawla, told reporters Tuesday that the Chinese currency debate was a “bilateral issue between the U.S. and China.” India has “no role to play in that,” he said.

experience, Haley said he still recommends Times New Roman or Arial for their readability.

The standard advice for trimming printing expenses still applies: Print in “draft mode,” if you can. Use both sides of a page and do a print preview to make sure you’re not printing pages with useless text such as a copyright line. Using an ink-saving font is just one more technique to consider.

And the greenest way to save on ink is not to print at all.

That’s the philosophy Microsoft Corp. said it uses in deciding which fonts to include in its Outlook and Word applications. The more pleasing a font looks on the screen, the less tempted someone will be to print, said Simon Daniels, a program manager for Microsoft’s typography group.

That’s why the company changed its defaults in Office 2007 from Arial and Times New Roman to Calibri and Cambria, he said.

“We’re trying to move the threshold of when people hit the print button,” he said.

NEW DELHI — China’s currency and role in global trade may be on economic policymakers’ minds in the United States and India, but it certainly was not on their lips here on Tuesday.

The U.S. Treasury secretary, Timothy Geithner, started his first official trip to India on Tuesday morning with a visit to a village to see a “mobile bank,” which serves customers far from bank branches. Next, he met with his economic counterparts in India, including the finance minister, Pranab Mukherjee.

China was never mentioned in a joint press conference afterward in New Delhi, and Indian officials said later that they had no plans to intervene in China’s currency policies.

Instead, Geithner and Mukherjee, who met to cement an economic partnership first announced during Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s state visit to Washington last November, pledged increased cooperation on macroeconomic issues and finance. They did not cite specifics but said they would meet again in Washington.

The two countries may “come from different positions,” Geithner said, but they have common problems, including the need to finance infrastructure projects and future innovation and to extend financial services to people outside the banking system.

Cooperation between the nations is “critically important to the success of global efforts to create conditions

Consumers Continued from B1 After all, their spending accounts for more than two-thirds of all economic activity in the United States.

But just a year later, consumers have eased off a bit on their savings, which frees up cash for them to spend. And in part because of the high rate of mortgage defaults, the overall consumer debt burden has been dropping. Those trends suggest to some economists that consumers may now be in a position to help drive the recovery.

The improvement extends even to some of the most costly household items. Last week, almost every automaker, including Ford, Toyota and General Motors, reported robust sales increases in March.

A W Tech firms race to be perk-iest Silicon Valley’s culture of comfort starting to return

By Jessica Guynn Los Angeles Times

SAN FRANCISCO — The 700 people lucky enough to work for online social-games maker Zynga Game Network Inc. feast on exotic gourmet grub prepared by professional chefs. They soothe stress with a visit to the company masseuse or reflexologist. And they take a break to get their hair cut. All for free.

If singled out for a quarterly award, an employee can win a weekend spin in a $200,000 Lamborghini or a carload of vested stock.

No perk is too small.

Administrative assistants are even dispatched to engineers’ homes to wait for the cable guy so engineers can stay laser-focused on developing the next hit game.

During the downturn, some Silicon Valley firms cut back on the free food and other goodies.

That’s starting to change.

With the tech-heavy Nasdaq stock index up 90 percent over the last year, investors are bankrolling new companies looking to invent the next big thing in social networking, mobile phones and other new technologies.

And that’s led companies to try to outperk the competition once again.

“The competitive nature of Silicon Valley forces you to get creative,” said Farbood Nivi, founder of San Francisco’s online learning startup Grockit.

Other common perks include upgraded health plans, flexible hours, gym memberships and tuition reimbursement. There’s the vast cornucopia of free snacks

Robert Durell / Los Angeles Times

Amitt Mahajan, 25, a lead developer on Zynga’s popular game FarmVille, picks up his free lunch at the company’s headquarters in San Francisco on March 8. (vegan cookies and coconut water) and services (dry cleaning and leather repair).

Grockit picks up the tab for employee health insurance and contributes $100 a month to each worker’s health savings account.

During a workday, employees can gather at a long table at Grockit’s headquarters — a hip Mission District loft — and enjoy free or-

ganic meals.

The perks being offered often reflect the character of the business.

Airbnb Inc., for example, offers free travel. The San Francisco firm that helps people rent out rooms to travelers dispatches its employees to visit hosts around the world. As a result, they can spend up to 5 percent of their jobs

traveling.

Sometimes, a perk is simply fun.

Social publishing company Scribd encourages roughhousing.

Every evening, the freewheeling San Francisco headquarters turns into a go-cart track with employees either “scracing,” zooming around the office in a figure eight, or playing “go-cart tag,” earning points for bumping another player from behind.

The layout of the office, with its six pairs of eight-sided concrete columns running down the middle, also proved ideal for a zip line.

“Pretty soon we are getting a ball pit for the end of the zip line, and I’m still thinking about where we can put a hot tub,” said Chief Executive Trip Adler.

At Asana, an Internet software developer, it’s all about creating a workplace nirvana where employees can focus on their work and on the big picture, said Justin Rosenstein, who started the outfit with Facebook Inc. co-founder Dustin Moskovitz.

The San Francisco start-up doles out $10,000 to recruits to spend as they like on computers and electronics equipment. They also get catered meals and twiceweekly yoga lessons.

“Employees should pretty much get whatever will help them be more productive, since their energy and time are invaluable, and small expenditures can go a big way in making people happier and more effective,” Rosenstein said.

Paul Saffo, a Stanford University professor who studies the future of technology, said such perks — like Wall Street bonuses — may sound extravagant but are not.

“Despite the downturn and the number of people on the street looking for jobs, filling or replacing a knowledge-worker job at a Silicon Valley company is a com-

plex, expensive process,” he said.

“Companies have a very powerful incentive to do everything they can to make an employee happy.”

Motivational experts like “Drive” author Daniel Pink applaud Silicon Valley for its counterculture mind-set.

Unlike elsewhere in corporate America, where top executives vie for corner offices and country club memberships, perks here do not come with rank. But they do come with a sense of freedom and purpose, something employees crave more than free food and massages, Pink said.

He points to the motivational success of Google Inc.’s encouraging engineers to spend 20% of their time on side projects of their choosing, some of which became major initiatives.

“The rallying cry at many companies is ‘Let’s raise earnings per share 2 cents a quarter.’ That’s not going to get someone to jump out of bed in the morning and race to do something extraordinary,” Pink said.

Zynga may have some of the more generous perks, said Amitt Mahajan, a lead developer on the company’s popular game FarmVille who won a $5,000 quarterly award and took his girlfriend to Spain.

His colleague Ginger Larsen, an associate on another popular Zynga game, Mafia Wars, is hooked on the company-paid once-a-week acupuncture treatments, which appeared to cure stomachaches that had bothered her all her life.

Even with all the perks, Zynga’s Chief People Officer Colleen McCreary says, the company is trying to work to prevent a potential fallout: a culture of entitlement.

“We do have a workforce for whom this is their first job out of school,” McCreary said. “I worry if they ever wanted to go work somewhere else. What a shock to the system that would be.”

Job-search resources as close as the Web

How to negotiate pay after a period of unemployment

By Marcia Heroux Pounds Sun Sentinel

FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida — Close to a job offer? If you’ve been unemployed for several months or longer, you are likely at a disadvantage in negotiating salary. Still, knowing the rules of the game can help you navigate a competitive compensation package.

“Whether out of work or not, don’t talk about the compensation until you’ve been offered the position,” says Joan Ciferri, president of David Wood Personnel in West Palm Beach, Fla. And, she says, “don’t behave like you’re more interested in the package than the job.”

Ciferri recommends getting the interviewer to tip his or her hand first on the salary budget.

“Find out what range they have for the position. If they ask you what compensation you’re looking for, turn it back on them: “What range do you have budgeted for the position?’”

“Once you have that information, you can negotiate,” Ciferri says. Generally, unemployed job candidates in the recession have been offered less or equal to what they were making in a previous job. Look at salary information on the Bureau of Labor Statistics Web site, http://www.bls.gov, to gauge salary for different occupations. But consider the entire compensation package, not only the salary.

“Make a business decision, instead of an emotional decision,” she says.

One strategy is to offer your services for 90 percent of the midpoint in the pay range, says Barry Brown, president of Effective Resources, a consulting firm that annually surveys employers in Florida about pay rates. Most employers have not updated their pay ranges for two years.

“Ask an employer when the last time the pay range was updated,” Brown says. If you are more experienced, you may want to ask for at least 95 percent of the midpoint, he says.

Joe LoBello, managing director of staffing firm Stephen James Associates in Boca Raton, Fla., says what matters is the market value for the job. If an employer has identified a group of qualified candidates who were all making $75,000 a year in a similar position, “that’s the new market value.”

LoBello says he’s seeing a significant jump in hiring activity, which also makes a difference in what a firm offers. If a candidate has other offers, “that gets employers excited. ‘They must be pretty good,’” he says. But he’s not suggesting candidates play games.

Negotiating compensation is all about timing, LoBello says.

If someone is recently laid off and has a good severance package, even an unemployed worker may decline an offer that is substantially below his or her former salary. But job hunters who have been out of work for eight months or more should think twice about rejecting an offer — even if it seems significantly less than they once made.

There’s also a case for being somewhere “in the middle” in salary in changing economic times, Ciferri says. “Businesses are not making what they used to make and have had to cut staff. ... You don’t want to go so far off the scale that you’re the first one to go.”

Still, Brown counsels employers not to take too much advantage when hiring workers in these economic times. “They will be the first people to leave when things turn around,” he says.

net neutrality banner,” he said.

As a practical matter, the court ruling will not have any immediate impact on Internet users because Comcast and other large Internet providers are not currently restricting specific types of Web content and have no plans to do so.

Comcast, the nation’s largest cable provider, had a muted reaction to its victory. The company said it was gratified by the court’s decision but added that it had changed the management policies that led it to restrict access to BitTorrent, a service used to exchange a range of large data files, from pirated movies to complex software programs.

“Comcast remains committed to the FCC’s existing open Internet principles, and we will continue to work constructively with this FCC as it determines how best to increase broadband adoption and preserve an open and vibrant Internet,” Comcast said in a statement.

The company is currently seeking federal approval for its proposed acquisition of a majority stake in NBC Universal, the parent of the NBC broadcast network and a cadre of popular cable channels. Some members of Congress and consumer groups have opposed the merger, saying that it would enable Comcast to favor its own cable channels and discriminate against those owned by competitors — something the company has said it does not intend to do.

Continued from B1 More broadly, the ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit could raise obstacles to the Obama administration’s effort to increase Americans’ access to high-speed Internet networks.

For example, the national broadband plan released by the administration last month proposed to shift billions of dollars from a fund to provide phone service in rural areas to one that helps pay for Internet access in those areas. Legal observers said the court decision suggested that the FCC did not have the authority to make that switch.

The FCC will now have to reconsider its strategy for mandating “net neutrality,” the principle that all Internet content should be treated equally by network providers. One option would be to reclassify broadband service as a sort of basic utility subject to strict regulation, like telephone service. Telephone companies and broadband providers have already indicated that they would vigorously oppose such a move.

A victory for some The appeals court’s 3-0 decision, which was written by one of the court’s more liberal members, Judge David Tatel, focused on the narrow issue of whether the FCC had authority to regulate Comcast’s network management practices.

But it was a clear victory for those who favor limiting the FCC’s regulation of the Internet, said Phil Kerpen, a vice president at Americans for Prosperity, a group that advocates limited government. “The FCC has no legal basis for imposing its dystopian regulatory vision under the

an open Internet.”

While the court decision invalidated its current approach to that goal, the agency said, “the court in no way disagreed with the importance of providing a free and open Internet, nor did it close the door to other methods for achieving this important end.”

The concept of equal access for all Internet content is one that people who favor some degree of FCC regulation say is necessary not only to protect consumers but also to foster innovation and investment in technology.

“You can’t have innovation if all the big companies get the fast lane,” said Gigi B. Sohn, president of Public Knowledge, which advocates for consumer rights on digital issues. “Look at Google, eBay, Yahoo — none of those companies would have survived if 15 years ago we had a fast lane and a slow lane on the Internet.”

The court’s ruling could potentially affect content providers like Google, which owns YouTube, a popular video-sharing service. Content providers fear that Internet service companies will ask them to pay a fee to ensure delivery of material like high-definition video that takes up a lot of network capacity.

Google declined to comment directly on the ruling but pointed to the Open Internet Coalition, of which it is a member.

The coalition’s executive director, Markham Erickson, said the decision “creates a dangerous situation, one where the health and openness of the Internet is being held hostage by the behavior of the major telco and cable providers.”

Julius Genachowski, chairman of the FCC, had said previously that if the agency lost the Comcast case, he would seek to find other legal authority to implement consumer protections over Internet service. In a statement, the FCC said it remained “firmly committed to promoting

rate hikes is due to the difference in channels offered to the service areas, he said.

Cable television rates have risen steadily in the past 15 years. A study released January 2009 by the Federal Communications Commission said cable rates rose 122 percent from 1995 to 2008.

However, Multichannel News,

a cable television industry blog, said the report did not take into account inflation costs or the increase in the quality of programming.

BendBroadband announced in early March it would raise its cable television rates as of April 1 by 3 percent on average. The company said the increase was necessary to cover higerh pro-

sel for the FCC, said that the court’s decision “is the worst of all worlds for the FCC.” He said the opinion was written narrowly enough that it was unlikely to be successfully appealed, while also raising enough possibilities of other ways that the FCC could accomplish the same goals that it was unlikely to inspire congressional action to give the agency specific regulatory authority over the Internet.

Under the Bush administration, the FCC largely deregulated Internet service. But in 2008, the final year of the administration, the agency decided to impose the net neutrality order on Comcast.

Under President Barack Obama, the FCC has broadened that initiative, seeking to craft rules governing the entire industry.

Tuesday’s ruling was the latest in a string of court decisions that rebuffed efforts by the FCC to expand its regulatory authority, noted Eli M. Noam, a professor of finance and economics at the Columbia University graduate business school and the director of the Columbia Institute for Tele-Information.

“The FCC is going to have to be more careful in how it proceeds,” he said, suggesting that the agency would have to structure policy decisions that were more broadly acceptable to the major telecommunications industry players in order to give them some legitimacy.

Andrew M. Odlyzko, a professor at the University of Minnesota who formerly served as director of the school’s Digital Technology Center, said that while some Internet service providers might jump at the opportunity to establish toll roads for their broadband service, the biggest companies, including Comcast and Verizon, have said they do not intend to do so.

Charging for carry-on bags: Is it inevitable?

By Christine Negroni

Although unpopular with many passengers, checked bag fees have accounted for $2 billion in additional revenue for airlines.

New York Times News Service

The airlines first imposed a fee on the second checked bag in 2005. Then, they started charging for the first bag. Now, Spirit Airlines says it will charge as much as $45 each way for carryon bags that are too big to fit under the seat.

True, Spirit is a small airline and none of the bigger carriers indicated on Tuesday, after Spirit’s announcement, whether they would follow suit.

But it is already clear that the fees air travelers pay to check luggage on most flights have had a bigger impact on airlines’ bottom lines than, perhaps, even the airlines had expected. A fee for a carry-on bag only underlines the new financial reality at airlines: Everyone, and everything, on a

Ruth Fremson New York Times News Service

plane must pay its own way.

The total in bag fees collected by the airlines has skyrocketed since the fees were first imposed.

According to Department of Transportation statistics, the fees rose from $464 million in 2007 to nearly $2 billion in just the first nine months of last year.

At the same time, passengers are now checking fewer and lighter bags to avoid the extra fees for heavy suitcases. As a result, the airlines have not been losing as many bags and baggage handlers appear to be suffering fewer injuries.

In addition, the airlines now

have more space available for cargo, which sells at a higher rate than a checked bag. “Freight makes a significant contribution to the bottom line of passenger airlines,” said Ulrich Ogiermann, chairman of the International Air Cargo Association. The revenue potential “if passengers check fewer suitcases to avoid baggage fees cannot be ignored,” he added.

In the United States, the most visible consequence of baggage fees has been the increase in more and heavier items in the passenger cabin, the very behavior that prompted Spirit’s new fee for carry-on policy. A survey by the Association of Flight Attendants found “excess amounts of oversized carry-on items” were causing flight attendants to be injured.

Treating rape victims faster

IT’S BIKE SAFETY TRAINING TIME

Officials try to increase number of certified examiners in area

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Colby Devore, 9, a student in Karen Brockway’s fourth-grade class at M.A. Lynch Elementary School in Redmond, gets some help fitting a bicycle helmet Monday. Commute Options Safe Routes coordinator Sami Fournier told students helmets have a short life span. “After one crash, it’s trash,” she said. To read the full story, see Local Schools, Page C3.

Geese hazing put on hold this month for nesting

When victims of sexual assault turn up at the hospital for treatment, they are referred to a nurse who is trained to collect evidence and to document signs of abuse.

But in Central Oregon, where there are only a handful of certified sexual assault nurse examiners — often called SANE nurses, for short — victims often have to wait.

Sometimes it’s a matter of minutes.

But on occasion, victims have waited for six or eight hours or longer, without showering or changing clothes so they won’t lose precious evidence.

Hospital and law enforcement officials say the shortage of SANE nurses has been a problem for years, but has become a bigger issue as the local population and number of patients seeking exams have increased. Now, they

are working to add more nurses to the rotation and move closer to round-theclock coverage — and prevent victims from opting out of the exam because they don’t want to wait.

“We’ve had victims of sexual assault who came to us for services after they attempted to go to the hospital for the exam and be turned away, asked to come back several hours later, and then decided not to go back,” said Trish Meyer, the assistant director of Saving Grace, a group that provides support to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. “Imagine what it would be like to experience this profound act of violence, and then you go to the hospital for medical services and you are turned away,” SANE nurses must complete a 40hour training course, which is typically held outside of Central Oregon, said Darin Durham, the manager of the

emergency department at St. Charles Bend. Training for pediatric exams is usually held in only one location in the U.S. Nurses learn how to document and preserve evidence in exams that can last between three and five hours.

“They learn everything about the mechanisms of the assault, the types of injuries they’re going to see,” Durham said. “A great deal of it is how to complete all the paperwork that is required, because most of these cases are going to end up in court.”

St. Charles Bend currently has five emergency room nurses who have received SANE certification, and St. Charles Redmond has two SANE nurses. Last year, SANE nurses performed 70 examinations. Durham said over the last few years, the number of exams has gone up by about 10 each year.

Finding the right path

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

Local Canada geese will get a brief break from the Bend Park & Recreation District’s efforts to harass them into leaving parks along the Deschutes River.

With the goose-nesting season coming up, volunteers have backed off chasing or “hazing” the geese, according to district Natural Resources Manager Paul Stell.

“It would be counterproductive,” he said. “If you chase them off of where they want to nest, they’re going to nest some place you don’t know about.”

Stell said it’s critical for the district to know where geese are nesting in order to conduct the next phase of its effort to reduce the local population. Once geese begin laying eggs, volunteers will be sent out to locate nests and coat eggs with vegetable oil, a process that kills the goose embryo inside the shell.

Hazing is scheduled to resume in mid- to late May, around the time un-oiled eggs should begin hatching.

Mid-May to mid-June will be a key time for the district’s efforts, according to David Feld, national program director for GeesePeace, an organization that has signed on to assist the park district.

If geese are going to be persuaded to leave the area, it’s likely to happen in the period between hatching and molting (when geese shed their feathers and become unable to fly). Mating pairs that do not produce offspring — due to oiled eggs or other reasons — can sometimes be persuaded to leave during this window of time, Feld said.

An offshoot of the Humane Society of the United States, GeesePeace has assisted with goosecontrol efforts in dozens of communities around the country.

Since launching its stepped-up campaign to drive geese out of the parks in January, the district has seen some success. Stell said some geese appear to have relocated within Central Oregon, moving to farms and ranches outside of town.

Feld said with a committed and organized effort, local geese can be coaxed to go much further.

In a recent experiment in southern Michigan, a group of 200 to 300 mating pairs were outfitted with transmitters so they could be tracked by satellite. Many of the birds ended up flying more than 700 miles away to Canada prior to molting, Feld said.

City may fix Mt. Washington bridge, Council considers but Riverhouse lawsuit to continue reroute face-lift

By Cindy Powers The Bulletin

Bend officials tonight are expected to approve a deal with a private developer to fix drainage problems at the Mt. Washington Drive bridge and make access to offices for the city’s only convention center compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The decision updates a 2004 development agreement between the city and River’s Edge Investments, LLC., developer of the Riverhouse Resort and Conference Center. Under the new deal, the city will pay about $39,000 for ADA upgrades to the resort’s office building made necessary when the current bridge across Mt. Washington Drive was constructed in 2005.

River’s Edge, in turn, will pay the city about $54,000 for infrastructure connecting the Riverhouse Hotel to the convention center and will also pay about $15,000 to fix drain-

age issues caused when the bridge went in.

But the deal will not resolve a 2007 lawsuit over the same development agreement that is now on its way to the Oregon Court of Appeals.

The city filed a document in late March saying it will appeal a Deschutes County Circuit Court ruling that it must pay River’s Edge $142,000 for charges a judge determined were wrongly assessed by the city in late 2005 in connection with the construction of the convention center.

The decision upheld arguments made by lawyer Robert Bonaparte, who represents River’s Edge, that the city made a limited agreement to waive systems development charges — or fees charged to developers and builders to help pay for infrastructure — under the 2004 convention center development deal.

Bend city officials did not return calls for comment on the

appeal Tuesday.

The 2004 agreement states the city would not assess SDCs against River’s Edge for a period of seven years or until the development met a certain density level, whichever occurred first.

But in late 2005, the city presented River’s Edge with a bill for $142,190 for system development charges, which the developer paid.

Now Judge Michael A. Adler also has ordered the city to give that money back and pay $42,000 in interest accrued at 9 percent since 2005. That interest will continue to accrue at 9 percent annually if the city loses at the appeals court level.

The plan to build a convention center at the Riverhouse dates back nearly 30 years.

That’s when city officials approved a master plan allowing River’s Edge to build a facility there.

REDMOND — The slapdash quality of landscaping along the Redmond reroute irritates Redmond City Councilor Ed Boero, and he wants to do something about it.

Boero worries that drivers get a poor impression of Redmond as they pass the city along U.S. Highway 97.

Stretches of property have no landscaping, while one property’s fence is made of shipping palates. To fix that, Boero wants the city to develop a landscaping plan for the corridor. But with the city facing a tight budget this year, some councilors don’t think Redmond has the money for aesthetic fixes.

Almost two years ago, the reroute opened to take U.S. Highway 97 traffic out of downtown Redmond. Since then, much of the land along

either side of the highway has been untouched. A new BMX park that recently opened near St. Charles Redmond is a major exception, and volunteers have spent hours cleaning the land near the park.

During a meeting Tuesday morning, Boero urged city staff to develop a plan for the stretch of Highway 97 because of that inactivity.

“The fact is, we’ve got this whole section that really is a gateway to our city and we’re not going to get people to stop in our city if that’s what they see,” Boero said. “If the gateway looks like garbage, we’re not going to attract people.”

Beautifying the gateway, though, has several roadblocks. Various people own property along the stretch, and the city would have to work with each before new landscaping could be installed.

The Associated Press NEWPORT — Oregon Coast Aquarium officials in Newport say one of two young California sea lions recently acquired by the aquarium has drowned.

Aquarium spokeswoman Cindy Hanson says the sea lion named Bailey and the other young newcomer named Maya apparently worked loose a filtration drain cover in a temporary pool where the two were being quarantined. It appears suction from the drain kept 10-month-old Bailey from being able to surface to breathe. The animal’s remains have been sent to Oregon State University’s veterinary college to confirm the cause of death.

Hanson says the accident happened Sunday night or early Monday.

Land donation for Bend parks district Brooks Resources has given the Bend Park & Recreation District 28.1 acres of land on the north side of Awbrey Butte.

The property includes a strip of land linking Mount Washington Drive and the Deschutes River Trail, and a horseshoeshaped section between the trail and the Deschutes River.

Bruce Ronning, the district’s Director of Planning and Development, said maintenance costs for the new property will be minimal, though the district will include it in a scheduled fire fuels management project planned on adjacent lands later this year.

A special section featuring news from schools in Deschutes, Jefferson and Crook counties

Redmond students exercise the cycling option

By Diane S.W. Lee The Bulletin

REDMOND — About 26 kids donned bicycle helmets and crowded around 66-year-old Richard Fleming on Monday.

“Go ahead and pick a bike,” Fleming told them.

The kids scrambled to claim one of about 30 new, youth-sized mountain bikes laying on the ground. It was the start of a lesson in bicycle and pedestrian safety for fourth-graders at M.A. Lynch Elementary School in Redmond.

The students wrote their names on masking tape to label the bicycles. They were theirs to keep — at least for three days.

Commute Options for Central Oregon, a nonprofit that promotes transportation alternatives, visits about 13 elementary and middle schools in Deschutes and Jefferson County throughout the year. The Safe Routes to School program encourages students to walk and bicycle to school, teaches them proper helmet and bicycle checks, and how to ride safely in traffic.

“I think it’s really great for kids to get specific bike safety instructions,” said Fleming, a Commute Options volunteer. “For a lot of these kids, it’s their very first safety instructions they’ve had, even though many of them are riding out on the roads already.

Our whole objective is to keep kids safe.”

Sami Fournier, 43, a Safe Routes coordinator, instructed students about the ABCs of bicycle safety, preparing them to ride safely.

“So before every ride, we do a check of the air, brakes, cranks, chains and quick releases — quick releases hold the wheels on,” Fournier said. “So we want to check the bikes to make sure they are road-worthy.”

Students also watched a fiveminute, student-produced video teaching them to wear helmets, use hand signals and follow traffic rules while riding bicycles.

Fournier said students also learn

about pedestrian safety, walking in large groups and avoiding strangers on the streets.

Although most students already know how to ride bicycles, Fleming said students are taught how to safely maneuver through traffic, roundabouts and intersections. They start practicing on the playground, and later ride bicycles on the streets with supervision.

“We consider a bicycle a vehicle, just like a car or truck on the road,” Fleming said.

Fourth-grader Koby Herron, 10, said he enjoys riding his bicycle up and down his street. Herron

said he plans to be a responsible rider.

“I just think people should be more safe with their bikes, and really think about it when they’re riding their bikes,” he said.

Classmate Carly Christiansen, 10, said she has been riding a bicycle since the age of 5, but learned something new on Monday.

“I learned to check your bike before you ride it, and not to put it on the chain side when you lay it down,” she said.

Most students ride bicycles at home, but they may not be familiar with bicycle safety, said fourth-

grade teacher Karen Brockway.

On Monday, Brockway, 48, helped students fix their helmets. She said students learn to stay alert for other cars on the road, helping to keep them safe while riding.

“One of the kids made a comment that they had never really thought about how they have the same responsibilities as a car when they are on their bikes,” Brockway said. “Just that awareness — it’s huge.”

Dugan for DA

D

eschutes County District Attorney Mike Dugan will confront something unusual on next month’s ballot: an opponent.

Ever since 1990, when he defeated Leonard Parker, Dugan has reclaimed his position by crushing “write in” on the May ballot. With opposition like that, even the Detroit Lions could win a few games.

Challenger Patrick Flaherty worked under Dugan for more than eight years, rising to chief deputy DA before leaving in 2001. For most of the past decade, Flaherty has done criminal-defense work.

Flaherty is, indeed, qualified to be district attorney. But the question voters should ask next month is whether installing him in Dugan’s chair will improve the district attorney’s office. We don’t think so.

Which isn’t to say Dugan’s a shooin. He is particularly vulnerable on two fronts. The first is his office’s role in the David Black disaster. We won’t rehash the details here, but Black has suffered an injustice to which Dugan’s office contributed. But this episode should be weighed against Dugan’s tenure as Deschutes County’s top prosecutor, which spans nearly 24 years. He has been, with very few exceptions, a very good DA. There’s a reason Dugan’s rarely been challenged for re-election.

Dugan’s second vulnerability is his avid campaigning in favor of Measures 66 and 67. The two tax hikes are, indeed, bad public policy. But Dugan’s advocacy says nothing about his competence as a DA. In any case, the person with whom voters have a beef is Dugan’s wife, Rep. Judy Stiegler. She voted for the tax hikes last year. But when they were referred to the ballot, she disappeared.

As strong opponents of the tax measures, we understand the impulse to lash out at Dugan. But doing so

would be counterproductive. Besides tossing aside one of the state’s most experienced district attorneys, it would create turmoil among the office’s 18 deputy district attorneys. These are the people who handle the county’s criminal cases, and they do so very well.

Lobbing a ballot-box hand grenade in their direction would be a good idea only if it improved the function of the DA’s office, and voters have no reason to believe that it would.

If you set aside David Black’s treatment and Dugan’s tax-hike campaigning, Flaherty’s case for election virtually disappears. He says he’d like to give individual prosecutors greater authority to settle cases on their own. He also believes Dugan’s office is inefficient, arguing that two prosecutors frequently appear in the courtroom when only one would suffice. He also believes Dugan too often uses Ballot Measure 11 as a plea-bargain club, though he doesn’t know if this phenomenon is more pronounced in Deschutes County than elsewhere. This is a weak foundation upon which to build an oust-the-incumbent campaign.

Flaherty argues that Dugan is a living testament to the value of term limits. It’s “not the DA’s office anymore,” he told us this week. “It’s the office of Mike Dugan.” We’d understand this argument better if district attorneys, like legislators, made policy. But they don’t.

In effect, they’re elected legal administrators, and in that sense experience helps far more than it hurts.

But let’s concede the point and assume that the DA’s office has become the Office of Mike Dugan. What really matters is whether the Office of Mike Dugan is serving the people of Deschutes County well enough to justify another four years. The answer is yes.

Back reform candidates

R

edmond Superintendent Vickie Fleming isn’t defensive about the fate of Oregon’s Race to the Top application, which she helped prepare. While Tennessee and Delaware waltzed away with hundreds of millions of dollars, Oregon emerged from the competition’s first round with the innovation equivalent of a scarlet letter.

Said Fleming this week: “I think we got exactly what we deserved and that we have to get serious about the reforms they’re proposing or we’re not going to be competitive in any way, shape or form. We’ve got to have some hard conversations politically and on the ground.”

Federal evaluators identified a number of shortcomings, including a weak system for evaluating teachers and a rigid certification process that keeps many potentially good teachers out of the classroom. Nobody thinks fixing these problems will be easy. But with the May primary just around the corner, now’s a good time to have some of the “hard conversations” Fleming mentioned.

As even the governor now recognizes, Oregon is speeding toward a budgetary cliff. The economy isn’t producing enough tax receipts to satisfy the ever-increasing appetite of state government, and Oregonians are tired of tax and fee hikes. These are ideal conditions to push educational reforms that improve productivity. Policymakers might not be able to turn the funding spigot any further, but they can invite the best and brightest into the classroom even if they haven’t undergone traditional teacher training.

They can adopt policies that improve the accuracy of teacher evaluations.

They can reward the best teachers appropriately while motivating weak teachers to improve or leave.

Oregonians who want their state to adopt such common-sense reforms should choose their legislative and gubernatorial candidates accordingly. If the struggle to push Oregon’s educational establishment into the modern age is a “hard conversation,” to borrow Fleming’s metaphor, then it’s one in which Oregonians themselves have the last word. It’s called a vote.

My Nickel’s Worth Massages are good I want to start with commending Deschutes County for having the foresight to take care of its employees. As far as the county paying out $136,000 last year for massages, 2.9 percent of this going to me as an LMT, let’s see a figure that compares pharmaceutical payments with all the alternative treatment options combined. I can guarantee that the amount paid out for drugs would far outweigh the cost of massage, acupuncture, etc.

You may say that this is not a fair comparison. People need those drugs to be “healthy.” Well, there is a chance that with the proper preventive care those drugs would not even be needed.

More importantly, people should be given the choice on how to care for themselves. If people want to seek out alternative options, they should not be judged, nor should those that seek a more “western” style of medicine. The word we should focus on here is choice.

We all want less expensive health care, right? Well, the county so happens to have seen the big picture and is ahead of its time with the benefits it can offer to employees and feel it is saving money for that reason.

Commissioner Tammy Baney is even quoted in the article saying, “(The massage benefit) has not proven to be a big strain on the budget.” So what’s the problem here, folks?

Stacey Wimberley Bend

Pointless drug war In response to Diana Hopson (“Legal-

ize drugs”), legalizing drugs might very well cause similar troubles as the current practice of “war on drugs.” Portugal decriminalized drugs in 2001. Recently the CATO Institute did a report on how things have gone in Portugal since the change (www.cato.org/pub_display. php?pub_id=10080). It is a report well worth reading. According to Webster’s, decriminalize is defined as “to eliminate or reduce the penalties for.” In the same dictionary, legalize is defined as “to make legal or lawful.”

When Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was asked (during an interview regarding the murders. Hopson referred to) if decriminalization was an option, she replied “no.” Hopson stated, “Unless our own government has a stake in this war on drugs,” obviously this is the situation, otherwise decriminalization would, at least, be considered an option.

The “war on drugs” is profitable, as is the “war on terror.” I am not happy to say such a thing; it actually terrifies me.

I recently listened to an interview on an OPB station that was discussing why America seems to be on the brink of revolution. Perhaps one of the reasons is the refusal of the government to at least consider decriminalization of drugs as an option to the apparently never-ending war on drugs and the multitude of deaths that “war” has caused.

Live with less I guffawed while reading “Calls can leave Bend Fire tapped” on March 28.

What about tapped taxpayers?

This January, Oregonians increased

personal income taxes and created a de facto sales tax. Since 2007, our federal government has increased national debt with corresponding taxes by billions to bail out a failed government financial system. Government then added billions more to bail out failed automobile companies. Next, government added additional billions to pay for a failed government mortgage industry.

In March, government blasted Americans with more taxes to pay for government health care. Don’t forget recently passed new taxes for Deschutes County sheriff services and COCC. It’s time government understands, there is no money left!

Government will always create reasons to demand more money, but at what cost? Every time additional money is requested for more government programs, we must ask two questions: First, can we afford it? Second, what will it do to our rights and individual freedoms?

I can’t afford, nor do I want or need, more government. It’s time government makes do with what it has. If that means less service, then so be it. I’m willing to accept the risk. Less service should come from nonessential government programs only. Prudent, frugal Americans are continually cutting back and living with less. It’s time government does the same.

Thomas Jefferson believed if we can prevent government from wasting the labors of the people, under the pretense of taking care of them, they will be prosperous and content.

Demographics, economic competitiveness will serve U.S. well

A

ccording to recent polls, 60 percent of Americans think the country is heading in the wrong direction. The same percentage believe that the U.S. is in long-term decline. The political system is dysfunctional. A fiscal crisis looks unavoidable. There are plenty of reasons to be gloomy.

But if you want to read about them, stop right here. This column is a great luscious orgy of optimism. Because the fact is, despite all the problems, America’s future is exceedingly bright.

Over the next 40 years, demographers estimate that the U.S. population will surge by an additional 100 million people, to 400 million overall. The population will be enterprising and relatively young. In 2050, only a quarter will be over 60, compared with 31 percent in China and 41 percent in Japan.

In his book “The Next Hundred Million: America in 2050,” uber-geographer Joel Kotkin sketches out how this growth will change the national landscape. Extrapolating from current trends, he describes an archipelago of vibrant suburban town centers, villages and urban cores.

The initial wave of suburbanization was sprawling and featureless. Tom Wolfe once observed that you only knew you were in a new town when you began to see a new set of 7-Elevens.

But humans need meaningful places, so developers have been filling in with neo-downtowns — suburban gathering spots where people can dine, work, go to the movies and enjoy public space.

Over the next 40 years, Kotkin argues, urban downtowns will continue their modest (and perpetually overhyped) revival, but the real action will be out in the compact, self-sufficient suburban villages. Many of these places will be in the Sun Belt — the drive to move there remains strong — but Kotkin also points to surging low-cost hubs on the Plains, like Fargo, Dubuque, Iowa City, Sioux Falls and Boise.

The demographic growth is driven partly by fertility. The American fertility rate is 50 percent higher than Russia, Germany or Japan, and much higher than China. Americans born between 1968 and 1979 are more family-oriented than the boomers before them, and are having larger families.

DAVID BROOKS In addition, the U.S. remains a magnet for immigrants. Global attitudes about immigration are diverging, and the U.S. is among the best at assimilating them (while China is exceptionally poor). As a result, half the world’s skilled immigrants come to the U.S. As Kotkin notes, between 1990 and 2005, immigrants started a quarter of the new venturebacked public companies.

The United States measures at the top or close to the top of nearly every global measure of economic competitiveness.

A comprehensive 2008 Rand Corp. study found that the U.S. leads the world in scientific and technological development. The U.S. accounts for a third of the world’s research-and-development spending. Partly as a result, the average American worker is nearly 10 times

more productive than the average Chinese worker, a gap that will close but not go away in our lifetimes.

This produces a lot of dynamism. As Stephen J. Rose points out in his book “Rebound: Why America Will Emerge Stronger From the Financial Crisis,” the number of Americans earning between $35,000 and $70,000 declined by 12 percent between 1980 and 2008. But that’s largely because the number earning more than $105,000 increased by 14 percent. Over the past 10 years, 60 percent of American adults made more than $100,000 in at least one or two of those years, and 40 percent had incomes that high for at least three.

As the world gets richer, demand will rise for the sorts of products Americans are great at providing — emotional experiences. Educated Americans grow up in a culture of moral materialism; they have their sensibilities honed by complicated shows like “The Sopranos,” “The Wire” and “Mad Men,” and they go on to create companies like Apple, with identities coated in moral and psychological meaning, which affluent consumers crave.

As the rising generation leads an economic revival, it will also participate in a communal one. We are living in a global age of social entrepreneurship.

In 1964, there were 15,000 foundations in the U.S. By 2001, there were 61,000.

In 2007, total private giving passed $300 billion. Participation in organizations like City Year, Teach for America, and College Summit surges every year. Suburbanization helps. For every 10 percent reduction in population density, the odds that people will join a local club rise 15 percent. The culture of service is entrenched and widespread.

In sum, the U.S. is on the verge of a demographic, economic and social revival, built on its historic strengths. The U.S. has always been good at disruptive change. It has always excelled at decentralized community-building. It has always had that moral materialism that creates meaning-rich products. Surely a country with this much going for it is not going to wait around passively and let a rotten political culture drag it down.

Reginald Bryant, radio and TV host McClatchy-Tribune News Service PHILADELPHIA — Reginald Bryant, 68, a Philadelphia radio and TV host, a labor union spokesman and a founder of the National Association of Black Journalists, died of cancer at a Philadelphia convalescent center on Monday.

Since 2006, he had been host of “In Pursuit of Truth, a weekday talk show on Philadelphia radio station WURD-AM.

Geese Continued from C1 “They didn’t go next door, they just left town,” Feld said.

“Geese have a built-in desire to go north.”

An aggressive hazing campaign in the time leading up to molting and a crackdown on feeding geese can help push the birds to leave, Felt said. In some communities, GeesePeace has sent volunteers into schools to teach children about the goose-control campaign, and the hazards feeding poses for waterfowl.

Geese and ducks fed a diet rich in bread or other human foods can develop “angel wing,” Feld said, twisted wings that render the birds flightless.

Geese that choose to migrate don’t necessarily leave the area for good. Like salmon, Canada geese have a strong desire to return to their birthplace to mate. While juvenile geese under 3 years old may choose a new breeding ground after migrating, the adult pairs currently living in Bend parks year-round are likely to return in the winter even if persuaded to fly north for the summer.

Feld said after three to four years of egg oiling and goose hazing, Bend should see fewer geese — at least in the summer, when park usage is at its peak.

Stell said between 600 and 800 geese populate Drake Park in the summer. The park district has not set a target goose population, he said, but will be measuring the program’s success by the mess the birds leave behind in the park. The district spent $22,000 repairing goose-related damage to parks in 2009 — a little more than double what the district expects to spend on eradication efforts this year. “If it doesn’t work, we could always try lethal methods afterward, but we’re going to do our best to make it work,” Stell said. “Hopefully we’ll solve the problem good enough we won’t have to do that, that’s what we’re hoping.”

Actor Corin Redgrave, brother of Vanessa and Lynn Redgrave

By Bruce Weber New York Times News Service

Corin Redgrave, a versatile actor and ardent left-wing political activist who, as the son of Michael Redgrave and the brother of Vanessa and Lynn Redgrave, was the prince of the royal family of English theater, died on Tuesday in London. He was 70.

His death was announced by

Riverhouse Continued from C1 But River’s Edge did not make any official moves toward construction until 2001 when it filed an application to build with the ctiy.

Neighbors of the then much smaller hotel fought the expansion, which required a change in zoning laws to go forward.

City councilors seemed poised to change the zoning and let the project move ahead in 2002 but ultimately voted to restrict development along the river.

After a series of well-attended public hearings, a city hearings officer denied the River’s Edge application to expand the resort in late 2003. River’s Edge responded by filing suit against the city in December 2003, claiming it had illegally denied the construction of the convention center and related improvements.

Nearly a year of negotiations took place. The city allowed variances so the convention center could sit closer to the river than allowed by the thencode and stand taller as well.

In December 2004, the city

SANE Continued from C1 At the same time, the number of SANE-certified nurses hasn’t increased. Last year, there were eight nurses in Bend, but three left to take other jobs.

“The economy has had an impact on this,” Durham said.

“We’ve lost three SANE nurses in the last year because they’ve moved out of the area and all of a sudden, the coverage has dropped.”

This summer, however, St. Charles Bend will send two more nurses for SANE training. In addition, Meyer said a recently reconvened sexual assault response team made up of nurses, county health and law enforcement officials and others has made the issue a top priority. She said the group is considering other options, including adding Deschutes County Health Department nurses into

his wife, Kika Markham, The Associated Press reported. No cause was given. He had survived a heart attack in 2005.

Redgrave was a less celebrated performer than his father, who was known for his Shakespearean eloquence, matinee idol good looks and turbulent personal life; or his sisters, who became internationally recognized figures, as glamorous as

they were accomplished. But he was a forceful, impassioned actor who became a veteran of the British stage, both in comedies and tragedies, and was especially at home in enduring works by Shakespeare, Chekhov, Noel Coward and Harold Pinter.

Redgrave devoted as much energy to political causes as he did to acting. He had close ties with far left organizations.

and River’s Edge signed the development agreement at issue in the lawsuit soon to be before the court of appeals.

The development agreement allowed River’s Edge to build the 30,000-square foot convention center, a restaurant, 102 hotel rooms, 80 condominium units and a swimming pool and spa.

While River’s Edge has successfully maintained the city partially waived its right to impose SDCs in the 2004 agreement, court documents show the city has argued the language of that agreement was ambiguous.

Eugene lawyer Jens Schmidt, who represents the city, has filed documents saying the development agreement allowed the city to collect SDCs whenever River’s Edge filed a building permit related to the expansion.

Schmidt did not return a call for comment Tuesday.

But a section of the 2004 development agreement between the city and River’s Edge states that “When building-permit applications are filed for all or any portion of the Proposed Development, the applicant shall pay and the city shall collect the System Development Charges

(SDC) in effect at the time of each application.”

In an August 2008 filing, Schmidt wrote that River’s Edge had confused SDC’s with developer “exactions,” imposed to address the impact development has on existing infrastructure. Schmidt argued that SDCs are imposed to pay for future and additional infrastructure made necessary by overall development.

Adler’s one-page ruling, signed in February, did not address the merits of each side’s arguments but ruled the city could not impose development fees until its agreement with River’s Edge expires in 2011 or until the development reaches a specific level of density.

Bonaparte said Tuesday that the city had drafted its appeal and that he is in the process of preparing a response on behalf of River’s Edge.

“Let’s just say we have a continuing disagreement and it’s really just a matter of being at a different level now,” Bonaparte said.

the on-call rotation.

Durham said the hospital is always looking for SANE nurses when it makes regular hires.

He said he’s not sure how long it will take to get full coverage, but is working to make it happen as quickly as possible.

“I wish we had the ability to turn the switch and say, ‘We have 24-hour coverage,’” he said.

“We’ll be much happier when we have an abundance of them.”

Law enforcement officers said they’re also hoping for an increase in SANE nurses, particularly because the evidence they gather is so valuable in prosecuting assault cases.

“It’s often difficult for us in these cases where you have a victim and a suspect — and that’s it,” said Lt. Erik Utter of the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office. “You don’t have a witness to the crime and the evidence you do have is contained within the victim. In order to help us establish and prove the

case, it’s crucial when we have that opportunity to secure that evidence.”

When victims have to wait for a nurse, a police officer often stays with them at the hospital.

Redmond Police Chief Ron Roberts said that can create a strain on resources, but he’s even more troubled by the thought of victims waiting for hours after a violent incident.

“We recognize the hospitals have a vested interested in these situations as well, and know they are struggling like we are to make sure these medical needs get addressed,” he said.

“It’s not because they don’t want to provide. It’s about a resource issue, and it’s just disheartening at times to have to deal with such significant delays in supporting and addressing these victims’ issues.”

Father Evangelist Kelly September 15, 1921 - March 26, 2010 Fr. Evangelist Kelly, a Capuchin Franciscan Friar who served many years in Santa Barbara Count y, died March 26, 2010, at San Lorenzo Friary in Santa Ynez. Born John Francis Kelly in Clara, Count Offaly, Ireland, September 15, 1921, the son of William and Elizabeth Deegan, he received the name Evangelist when he joined the Capuchin Franciscan Order on October 3, 1940. After his ordination on June 16, 1949, Fr. Evangelist came to the United States, as a teacher at St. Francis High School in La Cañada, California.

In 1962, after serving in various places, Fr. Evangelist was appointed Pastor of Old Mission Santa Ines in Solvang. There he continued the work of restoration, promoting tours of the Mission, expanding the parish organizations and working on a strong spiritual program for the parishioners. He was popular with both Catholics and non Catholics. His compassion and pastoral good sense were always appreciated. In 1968 he became head of the Capuchin friars in the west, then served in various parishes in California and Oregon. In 1999, Fr. Evangelist returned to the Santa Ynez Valley, stationed at San Lorenzo Prayer and Retreat Center, serving as spiritual director, bible study leader, and visiting priest in many of the local parishes. He was known as the ‘voice of San Lorenzo,’ cheerfully answering the phones at the retreat center, as well as carrying on a voluminous correspondence. Fr. Evangelist was known as a quiet man of firm convictions, a man of deep compassion, prayer and wisdom. He will be missed by all the Capuchin friars and the many people who got to know him over the years. Visitation for Fr. Evangelist was held on Tuesday, March 30 at Mission Santa Ines, followed by the rosary. The funeral mass was held on Wednesday, March 31 at the Mission, followed by interment at San Lorenzo Friary. In lieu of f lowers, please consider making a donation to the Capuchin Franciscan Foundation for Retired Friars, 1345 Cortez Avenue, Burlingame, CA 94010 in memory of Fr. Evangelist.

Ex-Boy Scouts exec testifies on reported abuse The Associated Press PORTLAND — A Boy Scouts leader testifying in a sex abuse lawsuit said Tuesday he reported the abuse confession of another group leader, only to find the man still with the organization more than a decade later.

In testimony Tuesday at the Portland trial, Larry O’Connor said he was surprised to see the man he reported in 1970, wearing the full uniform at a national Scouts jamboree in 1981.

“I went up to him and asked, ‘What are you doing here?’”

O’Connor said. “And he just walked away from me.”

O’Connor, 67, said he volunteered to testify after reading about the $29 million lawsuit filed by a Portland man abused as a boy by an assistant Scoutmaster in the early 1980s.

Serving Central Oregon for over 50 Years said. “We may not be able to afford it.”

In a step toward answering Boero’s concerns, city staff will prepare a request for proposal by the end of the month, according to Public Works Director Chris Doty. The RFP will include a broad outline of what the city wants, including low- and highcost options. Specific designs will not be part of the RFP. Once the RFP goes out, the city may hire a consultant to run the study.

Once a study is completed, the city would have a better understanding of the potential challenges it faces, Doty said.

“I think what we need to do is get on the same page and figure out what’s there,” Doty said.

Continued from C1 And a canal runs along the highway’s western edge, which means staff may have to negotiate with the Central Oregon Irrigation District. The Oregon Department of Transportation also owns some of the property along the road.

Several councilors called for patience. Councilor Shirlee Evans compared the reroute to the Bend Parkway and said property owners have gradually improved how land bordering that road looks.

“As I watched the parkway go through Bend, it took many years for private parcels to redevelop,” Evans said. “We need to be really thoughtful. Sometimes when you have a scar, it takes a

while to heal.”

Other councilors were concerned about how much money the project could cost the city.

Councilor Camden King said all of the city’s departments are facing budget pressures, so Highway 97’s appearance may not be the most critical issue.

“I agree that it’s important. I agree the aesthetics of that corridor are ultimately going to be very important for our community,” King said. “Proceed with caution.”

Boero agreed that cost could prevent the city from doing anything about the corridor in the immediate future. But, he said, the city needs to study the issue so it understands what can or cannot be done.

“I think first step is a plan, so we can figure out if we can figure out how to afford it,” Boero

GOLF Woods’ return comes during ESPN telecast AUGUSTA, Ga. — Tiger Woods has an ideal tee time for his return to golf at the Masters — at least as far as TV is concerned.

After weeks of speculation about his playing partners for the opening two rounds at Augusta National, the starting times released on Tuesday had more to do with “when” than “who.”

Woods is to tee off at 10:42 a.m. PDT Thursday in the penultimate group for the second straight year. Barring any delays, his group likely will be on about the eighth hole when ESPN’s live coverage begins at 1 p.m. PDT. It will be the first time Woods has competed since a shocking sex scandal began to unfold the day after Thanksgiving.

Joining him for two days will be Matt Kuchar, a popular figure in these parts from his all-American days at Georgia Tech; and K.J. Choi of South Korea, which is sure to appeal to Augusta National’s broadcast partners in Asia.

Woods is to start at 7:35 a.m. PDT on Friday, limiting coverage of him to live streaming on the Masters’ Web site.

ESPN executive vice president John Wildhack said every “meaningful shot”

by Woods will be shown by the network at some point, whether live or as part of highlights.

“This is the Masters tournament, and that is THE story line, and we’re here to cover the Masters tournament,” Wildhack said. “Obviously Tiger and the fact this is his return to golf is the story line in terms of individual players, but not the only one.”

Quail Run puts on a new face

SAN ANTONIO — Every basket built their streak, every romp enriched their legacy.

From the first shot of the season, it seemed inevitable that Maya Moore, Tina Charles and the Connecticut Huskies would win the NCAA championship.

And so they did Tuesday night, rallying from a horrible first half to beat Stanford 53-47 for their 78th straight victory and stamp themselves as one of the most dominant teams ever — in their sport or any other, men or women.

Held to only five points through the first 12 minutes and trailing 20-12 at the break, coach Geno Auriemma’s team bounced back and played like champs.

“We knew a run was coming,” said Maya Moore, the tournament’s outstanding player. “We settled down and hit some big shots.”

Did they ever. UConn surged to start the second half, bolting to an 11-point lead. Moore scored 23 points and grabbed 11 rebounds to help Auriemma win his seventh national championship, moving within one title of Pat Summitt and Tennessee. He’s never lost in the title game.

La Pine golf course is undergoing a series of improvements

By Zack Hall The Bulletin

TEE TO GREEN

LA PINE — An infrequent visitor to Quail Run Golf Course might not notice any difference.

But Quail Run, which is under not-quitenew management, has been making subtle changes to the 18-hole golf course.

Todd Sickles was elevated from the course’s head professional to its general manager earlier this year after Bill Martin,

who ran the day-to-day operations, sold his 50 percent share of Quail Run to his longtime business partner, Les Howatt, of Gresham.

And Sickles and Howatt are trying to improve the public golf course, Sickles says.

So far the modifications have been mostly minor — a bag rack here, a new merchandise display cabinet there.

VAN NUYS, Calif. — The five paper-clipped sheets slipped into a wire basket at the Van Nuys State Office Building, looking no different from the other workers’ compensation claims filed by welders and cashiers. But this packet was different — it will almost certainly become a test case in considering National Football League teams’ liability for the dementia experienced by retired players.

The claim was filed by Eleanor Perfetto on behalf of her husband, Ralph Wenzel, contending that his dementia at age 67 is related to his career as an NFL lineman from 1966 to 1973.

California’s workers’ compensation system provides a unique, and relatively unknown, haven for retired professional athletes among the states, allowing hundreds of long-retired veterans each year to file claims

UO president: severance for Bellotti was a buyout B y Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

PORTLAND — University of Oregon president Richard Lariviere characterized the $2.3 million golden parachute for outgoing athletic director Mike Bellotti as a buyout — but he stopped short of saying that the former football coach was fired.

Bellotti coached the Ducks for 14 seasons and took them to 12 bowl games before sliding into the AD’s job last year. He abruptly announced on March 19 that he was stepping down as athletic director after nine months on the job to become an ESPN analyst.

Since then questions have been raised about both Bellotti’s departure and the generous compensation package from the public university. At a news conference in Eugene on Tuesday, Lariviere called the move a “mutually agreed-upon resignation.”

Asked if Bellotti was fired, Lariviere said: “I told Mike we were going to have a change at athletic director. I was struggling with when and how I was going to effect that, and when the ESPN deal came up, that seemed the right moment. I felt that I had to explain to Mike what the options were before he made a decision regarding ESPN.” Bellotti first broached the possibility of working in television with Lariviere several months ago. He appeared somewhat awkwardly with Lariviere at Tuesday’s news conference, insisting he resigned.

“In a perfect world I would have done both (serving as AD and working for ESPN),” Bellotti said. “But that was not possible.”

The university did not have a written contract with Bellotti, so terms of the “separation agreement” were determined by Lariviere. Bellotti’s deal was orally struck with former athletic director Pat Kilkenny. There are differing opinions as to its length.

Lariviere called the lack of documentation “a very odd situation.”

“This institution did not follow acceptable business practices in the past,” Lariviere said. “This will not be repeated under my administration.”

Lariviere said that no public funds would be used for the buyout, which would come from donor funds earmarked for the athletic department.

He said: “$2.3 million is a lot of money, but I feel it was a fair settlement based on the commitments to Mike before I got here.”

The Oregon Department of Justice said it would conduct a review of Bellotti’s deal because of concerns raised by the media. The State Board of Higher Education also is looking at it.

Bellotti went 116-55 as coach of the Ducks. In 2001, Oregon won 11 games, including a 38-16 victory over Colorado in the Fiesta Bowl to finish ranked No. 2.

Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly took over as coach when Bellotti became AD after the 2008 season.

Bellotti’s move comes as there is upheaval in the athletic department. Several football players — including quarterback Jeremiah Masoli and top running back LaMichael James — have had well-publicized legal problems.

Masoli, a potential Heisman Trophy candidate, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor burglary and was suspended for the entire upcoming season, while James pleaded guilty to misdemeanor harassment in an altercation with his former girlfriend and was suspended for the home opener on Sept. 4.

Additionally, Bellotti fired longtime head basketball coach Ernie Kent after two disappointing seasons. The university is currently searching for a successor.

Oregon has named Lorraine Davis, the university’s former vice president for student affairs, as interim athletic director while the university searches for Bellotti’s replacement.

Bellotti’s first broadcast in his new position will be the Auburn spring football game on ESPNU.

Duval makes it back to Augusta

By Paul Newberry The Associated Press

AUGUSTA, Ga. — David Duval ambled away from the 13th tee, strolled over the Nelson Bridge and found a nice, comfortable spot to plop down in the middle of the fairway.

He sat there for a couple of minutes, next to his ball, staring across Rae’s Creek toward the woods on the other side, soaking up the brilliant colors of the azaleas and dogwoods.

The perfect place to reflect, to think back on all he once was at Augusta National and still hopes to be.

Hardly. Duval isn’t much for reminiscing or any of that mushy stuff.

“It was brutal out there. They were playing soooo slow,” he grumbled Tuesday after a practice round that dragged on for nearly five hours.

“I was just trying to keep from going to sleep.”

For Duval, so much has changed since the last time he contended at the Masters, nearly a decade ago. From the expanded waistline to the errant shots to the wandering concentration, he barely resembles the guy who once ruled as golf’s No. 1 player.

This is the first time he’s qualified for the Masters since 2006, when he shot a 10 on the second hole and missed the cut for the fourth year in a row. He’s here thanks to a runner-up finish at last year’s U.S. Open.

Then again, so much remains the same.

Duval still walks the course with an aura reserved for the greats, not someone who last won a tournament at the 2001 British Open, not someone who looks perpetually frumpy with his shirttail hanging out, not someone

GOLF: 2010 MASTERS who comes here sandwiched between Anthony Wall and Danny Willett at No. 110 in the world rankings.

Maybe it’s the aloof demeanor, obscured by those wraparound glasses. Maybe it’s the standoffish body language, the sense that he’s not really paying a lick of attention to the folks shouting, “Go get ’em, David” and other encouraging words.

There was always a mystery about Duval, and the fact that a once-brilliant game got away from him in the blink of an eye only adds to the intrigue. At nearly every hole, some patron posing as a fairway psychologist offered up a possible explanation for his baffling decline, everything from depression to vertigo.

For the record, Duval feels just fine — about his fame, too.

“I’m comfortable, entirely comfortable, with what I’m doing right now,” he said. “I feel like I’m swinging the golf club how I want to. I feel like I’m striking the golf ball how I want to. To me, it’s a matter of performing and doing that more regularly than I may be at the moment.”

If nothing else, Duval seems to have rekindled a sense of feistiness with the media that melted away as his scores went up and up. He now feels as though he’s put up enough good results — the 2009 U.S. Open and this year’s AT&T at Pebble Beach — to stop all those annoying questions about his slump.

Never mind that he’s missed the cut in four of his seven PGA Tour events this year.

“Some of this, I don’t understand,” he said.

“I’m trying to talk about and answer questions I’ve been answering for a couple of years now, and I don’t know why I need to answer them any more than I have. I have talked about it.”

Duval might have hit rock bottom at that 2006 Masters. He opened with an 84, then started the second round with a double bogey at No. 1 and a quintuple-bogey 10 at the second, when he drove into a hazard on the left and took two more penalty strokes before he finally escaped.

But that day, as bad as it was, also signified that Duval’s shotmaking skills had not totally abandoned him. He bounced back to make five birdies over the final 12 holes, including a 32 on the back nine. Not nearly good enough to make the cut, of course, but a start.

Duval never doubted that he’d make it back to the Masters someday. Whether he can ever be the sort of player he once was at Augusta National remains to be seen.

Over a four-year stretch beginning in 1998, Duval had a pair of runner-up finishes, plus a third and a sixth. He still believes those are four green jackets that got away.

“I’d like to see him at his best again,” said Jim Furyk, who joined Duval for the practice round along with Justin Leonard. “I played a lot of golf with him back when he was the best player in the world, and he was really, really good. I guess the rest of that is: Does he really want to get back to that level again? It’s difficult to do. But I really liked what I saw today in his game.”

NBA ROUNDUP

S B

NBA SCOREBOARD EASTERN CONFERENCE

Baseball • Beavers get midweek win over Portland: Ryan Gorton allowed just one run in a careerlong seven innings as the 17thranked Oregon State baseball team defeated Portland, 9-2, in a midweek contest Tuesday night at Goss Stadium in Corvallis. Gorton surrendered his only run of the game in the first, and it was charged as an unearned run, keeping his ERA at 0.00 in a total of 13 2⁄3 innings this season. Gorton struck out four while walking three and allowing five hits to improve to 3-0 this season. The Pilots used eight pitchers and Oregon State sufficiently supported Gorton with a total of 12 hits, six of which went for extra bases.

• Players mull grievance: Baseball players are threatening to file a collusion grievance charging owners with conspiring against free agents last winter. New players’ association head Michael Weiner told The Associated Press on Tuesday that the union has concerns. Owners deny any wrongdoing. The Major League Baseball Players Association still hasn’t decided whether to go ahead with a grievance against owners alleging misconduct after the 2008 season. The sides reached a standstill agreement last year giving the union additional time to decide whether to proceed.

Basketball • DePaul hires Clemson’s Purnell: Vowing to make DePaul “Chicago’s team” again, Clemson’s Oliver Purnell simply couldn’t resist the urge to restore a storied program and became the Blue Demons’ coach on Tuesday. He leaves behind a stunned school back in South Carolina — the Tigers clearly didn’t see this coming — while taking on the huge task at DePaul, which has one regularseason Big East win the past two years. The 56-year-old Purnell was 138-88 in seven seasons at Clemson and is 394-279 in 22 years with stops at Radford, Old Dominion and Dayton.

• Title game gets good ratings: The NCAA championship game matched its highest preliminary television rating since 1999.

Duke’s 61-59 win over Butler on Monday night on CBS earned a 16.0 overnight rating and 25 share. That’s up 34 percent from the 11.9/19 for North Carolina’s blowout against Michigan State last year. It tied the 16.0/23 for North Carolina-Illinois in 2005 as the best since a 16.0/25 in 1999 for Connecticut-Duke. The entire tournament averaged a 6.6 overnight rating, up 5 percent from last season. Ratings represent the percentage of all households with televisions tuned into a program. Shares represent the percentage of all homes with TVs in use at the time. Overnight ratings measure the nation’s largest markets.

• Cornell’s Donahue moves to Boston College: Steve Donahue has been hired as Boston College’s basketball coach after leading Cornell to three straight Ivy League titles and the round of 16 in this NCAA tournament. The move was announced by Boston College on Tuesday. Donahue led the Big Red to a 29-5 record this season — the most wins in Ivy history. They beat favored Temple and Wisconsin in the NCAA tournament to be the first Ivy team to reach the round of 16 in more than 30 years. Donahue replaces Al Skinner, who was fired after 13 years and was the winningest coach in BC history.

• Ill Dantley misses Nuggets practice: The Denver Nuggets, already dealing with the absence of ailing coach George Karl, were faced with another issue when acting head coach Adrian Dantley was forced to miss Tuesday’s practice because of a kidney stone. A group of assistants oversaw the 90-minute workout, the team’s last practice before a pivotal back-to-back set that begins Wednesday in Oklahoma City and concludes on Thursday, when the Nuggets host the Los Angeles Lakers. The Nuggets, who have five regular season games remaining, began Tuesday tied with Utah atop the Northwest Division and in a four-way tie for the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference playoffs.

• Syracuse’s Boeheim picks up award: Syracuse basketball coach Jim Boeheim has been selected the Naismith college coach of the year. The Atlanta Tipoff Club made the announcement Tuesday. Boeheim won out over finalists Steve Alford of New Mexico, John Calipari of Kentucky and Frank Martin of Kansas State. Boeheim, who guided the Orange from unranked in the

Atlantic Division

preseason to No. 1, becomes the fourth Big East coach to win the award. He joins Ben Howland (2002) and Jamie Dixon (2009) of Pittsburgh and Jay Wright of Villanova (2006). Syracuse went 30-5, making it to the round of 16 in the NCAA tournament before losing to national runner-up Butler.

Golf • Floyd done at Masters: Raymond Floyd has called it a career at Augusta National, saying he won’t be playing the Masters anymore after 45 appearances.

The 67-year-old Floyd said Tuesday he decided not to play this year’s event because he didn’t want to embarrass himself trying to compete on the 7,435-yard course. He still plans to play the Par-3 tournament today, joking that he can reach most of those greens off the tee. Floyd is the latest in a line of past champions who have decided to stop playing the Masters in recent years, including Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player. Floyd had played in every Masters since 1965 and won the event in ’76. But he had missed the cut the last 10 years.

Cycling • Valverde takes stage: Alejandro Valverde kept the overall lead in the Tour of Basque Country after winning Tuesday’s second stage in Spain. Valverde edged Oscar Freire in the sprint finish a day after earning a victory when Freire was demoted for blocking his fellow Spaniard as they raced across the line.

Valverde of Caisse D’Epargne took the 135-mile stage in 5 hours, 53 minutes, 40 seconds, with Freire finishing in the same time. Valverde leads Freire of Rabobank with an overall time of 9:51:38.

• Armstrong 24th in France: Welcome back to France, Lance Armstrong: This way to doping control, s’il vous plait. The seventime Tour de France champion competed in mainland France for the first time this year on Tuesday and was called in for a random doping test after the first stage of the four-day Circuit de la Sarthe.

The 38-year-old Texan rode for Team RadioShack and placed 24th, trailing in the main pack just a split second behind winner Luis Leon Sanchez of Spain. Armstrong also said he won’t compete as planned in the Amstel Gold race in the Netherlands on April 18, wanting to spend time with his family and feeling confident that he can prepare for the Tour de France in the U.S. RadioShack spokesman Philippe Maertens said Armstrong will race in next month’s Tour of California.

Southeast Division

Football • McNabb starts ‘new chapter’ as Redskins QB: The quarterback holding the burgundy No. 5 Washington Redskins jersey was Donovan McNabb. From everything that was said, it might have been simpler to just go ahead and call him John Elway II. The six-time Pro Bowl star was formally introduced Tuesday at Redskins Park. All things being equal, he would rather be preparing for a 12th season with the Philadelphia Eagles, but an Easter Sunday trade between NFC East rivals has opened what he called “a new chapter in the book of Donovan.” “I’ve always believed in finishing where you started,” McNabb said. “I think there’s a lot to be said with that.

Not a lot of quarterbacks in this league are able to do that these days. Sometimes change is better. Sometimes you’re forced into change. I would have loved to (stay in Philadelphia), but it didn’t happen.” Instead, he is with the Redskins and new coach Mike Shanahan, and both went to great lengths to say that trading two draft picks for a 33-year-old quarterback with a few nicks is a solid investment. They did so by repeatedly invoking Elway, who was 34 when Shanahan became coach of the Broncos in 1995.

• Rogers must pay $6.1M to Lions: A judge says former Detroit Lions receiver Charles Rogers must repay $6.1 million to the team. Rogers was suspended for substance abuse in 2005 and was released by the Lions the next year. The team has been trying to recoup two-thirds of his $9.1 million signing bonus. U.S. District Judge Julian Abele Cook said Monday the money must be repaid. An NFL arbitrator made the same conclusion in 2008.

Rogers was the second pick in the 2003 NFL draft. In January, the former Michigan State star was sentenced to 93 days in jail for violating a court order to stay sober.

WESTERN CONFERENCE Southwest Division

Danny Chan La / The Associated Press

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant, left, walks off the court after missing a last-second shot in overtime as Utah Jazz forward Carlos Boozer, right, celebrates their 140-139 win after Tuesday’s game in Salt Lake City.

Late jumper lifts Jazz over Thunder The Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY — Deron Williams set his career high for points, then was able to celebrate when the Jazz were finally able to stop Kevin Durant.

Williams’ jumper with 1.1 seconds left in overtime gave Utah a one-point lead and C.J. Miles clinched it with a disputed block on Durant’s shot at the buzzer in a 140-139 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night.

The Jazz pulled into second place in the Western Conference standings and ended the Thunder’s four-game winning streak, which has Oklahoma City also contending with Utah and Denver for the Northwest Division title.

“It was a huge win for us because they were right on our heels,” said Williams, who finished with 42 points and 10 assists.

Carlos Boozer had 28 points and 15 rebounds for the Jazz, who hadn’t scored 140 in almost 20 years.

Durant finished with 45 points as the Thunder and Jazz combined for the highest-scoring game in the NBA this season, according to STATS LLC. “Great game. Classic,” Boozer said.

“Both teams scrambled for balls on the floor, hustled on defense, fought for rebounds. I mean, it was like a playoff game and I’m proud of us coming with that W.” Durant thought he was fouled on a three-pointer just before the buzzer that would have won it for the Thunder. He and several teammates stayed on the court pleading for a call that never came before the officials were escorted to the tunnel by security.

Miles appeared to get a piece of the ball — and the Thunder thought he got some of Durant, too.

“The referee didn’t call a foul. You have to go with him. He had a better look than I had,” Oklahoma City coach Scott Brooks said. “Sometimes you get those. Sometimes you don’t. We had a good opportunity to win the game. We didn’t get a stop. That’s the bottom line.”

PREP ROUNDUP

Culver softball scores 17 runs in league win Bulletin staff report CULVER — Santiam proved no match for the hot Culver bats as the home team trounced the Wolverines 17-6 in girls softball action Tuesday afternoon.

The Bulldogs (4-0 Special District 3) remain undefeated in league play and have racked up a total of 27 hits over the course of their last two games.

“I guess the wind was with us today,” said Culver coach Kevin Urbach. “We’ve been hitting the ball well.”

The Bulldogs put up the game’s first runs, scoring two in the first inning. They followed with seven runs in both the second and third innings to take a 16-2 lead.

Culver also benefited from strong pitching. Evangeline Hood went the distance against the Wolverines with seven strikeouts in the five-inning contest.

Kymber Wofford cracked two doubles and two singles, and Amanda Treadway notched four singles in the home win. Sarah O’Gorman added a triple for the winners.

In other Tuesday prep action: BOYS TENNIS Bend . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 The Dalles-Wahtonka. . . . . . . . . . . . . 2 Jeff Windsor set the pace for Bend and bested Alex Bruttin 6-2, 6-0 to take No. 1 singles for the host team.

The duo of Kyle Pickard and Steven Marquess won at No. 1 doubles and paved the way for the rest of the Lava Bears (4-0 Intermountain Conference) doubles teams, who won every match in straight sets.

Golf Continued from D1 “We have a tradition of being successful,” says Buerger, “and we want to keep that ride going as long as possible.”

In the Class 5A ranks, Summit is another team that appears to have the right ingredients for a winning season.

The Storm managed a runner-up finish at last season’s Intermountain Conference district championships, finishing second to a powerful The Dalles-Wahtonka team. And like Redmond, Summit boasts three returning state qualifiers, one of whom — senior Jesse Heinly — finished second at last season’s state tournament and this week was medalist at the eight-team IMC Preview tournament.

Summit’s other two returning state golfers, senior Jordan Scheimer and sophomore Dylan Cramer, combine with Heinly to form a squad with legitimate state-title aspirations. Cramer carded the second-lowest score at Monday’s IMC Preview, following Heinly’s tournament-best 78 with a 79. Such talent has prompted many area coaches to pick the Storm as the team to beat in the IMC this season.

“We always have the same goal every year — to win state,” says Mark Tichenor, now in his fifth year as Summit’s head coach.

“Most teams have one or two decent guys, but what separates the good teams from the great teams are the guys in the No. 3 and No. 4 positions,” Tichenor explains, adding that he feels fortunate to have senior Anders Hansen and junior Josh Mitchell battling for Summit’s No. 4 position.

Crook County, already off to a strong start after winning its first tournament of the season, also figures to be in the IMC mix this year.

After the Cowboys finished fourth in the league in 2009, coach Zach Lampert expects Caleb Henry and Jared George to lead Crook County to a successful season this spring.

“Summit returns basically everybody and is the favorite,” Lampert says. But the second-year coach adds that, with a little improvement, Crook County should be able to compete with other league favorites The Dalles-Wahtonka, Hermiston and Pendleton.

Mountain View coach Lucas Taroli agrees that Summit is in a league of its own. But he says he believes that second place in the IMC — and the league’s No. 2 state team berth — is up for grabs.

“We hope to be more competitive,” says Taroli, whose team finished sixth at last year’s IMC tournament.

Senior Paul Coduti is back for the Cougars and made his mark early this season by winning the Sisters Invitational at Crooked River Ranch.

First-year Madras coach Spud Miller expects that the White Buffaloes will be better this year than last.

Senior Nick Johnson and junior Jasper Gerhardt lead a young but motivated squad.

Improvement must be contagious

District tournament: May 10-11 at Middlefield, Cottage Grove LA PINE HAWKS Coach: Kent Wieber (11th season) 2009 record: Fifth at Sky-Em district tournament Returning state qualifiers: none District tournament: May 10-11 at Middlefield, Cottage Grove in Central Oregon, as Bend coach Rusty Clemons reports that his team thus far has shot much better scores than it did last year.

The Lava Bears are led by senior Jake Koski and junior Robbie Wilkins, a transfer from La Pine.

Clemons picks sophomores Tanner Cherry and Carter McGowan to round out Bend’s top five.

Look for Sisters to make another giant splash in Class 4A following its second-place finish at last year’s SkyEm League district tournament. The Outlaws went on to take seventh at state and this year return four golfers from that state run: seniors Aaron Simundson, Cody Farr-Baenziger and Jonathan Standen as well as junior

Jeff Fought.

On the second day of state tournament play last season, Simundson shot a career-best, 4-over-par 76 at the Quail Valley Golf Course in Banks. Already this season, Simundson has led the Outlaws to a secondplace finish at their own invitational tournament.

La Pine coach Kent Wieber predicts Sisters will be a tough team to topple in the Sky-Em League, as will Marist. But he hopes top Hawks golfers Travis Knight and Nico Cummings will score state tournament berths.

THE BULLETIN • Wednesday, April 7, 2010 D5

Dementia Continued from D1 About 700 former NFL players are pursuing cases in California, according to state records, with most of them in line to receive routine lump-sum settlements of about $100,000 to $200,000. This virtual assembly line has until now focused on orthopedic injuries, with torn shoulders and ravaged knees obvious casualties of the players’ former workplace.

But Perfetto’s contention that Wenzel’s dementia relates to his football employment represents a significant shift, several lawyers involved in the California system said. They estimated the case’s potential value at more than $1 million if it reaches its conclusion, probably in two or three years.

Given the dozens and perhaps hundreds of players who could file similar claims, experts in the California system said NFL teams and their insurers could be facing liability of $100 million or more.

They identified a wide spectrum of possible effects: These costs could merely represent a financial nuisance for a league that recorded $8.5 billion in revenue last year, or, if insurance costs rise drastically because of such claims, the NFL could be forced to alter its rules to reduce head trauma. Officials already are considering decreased contact in practice and forbidding linemen from using the threepoint stance.

The more routine orthopedic claims filed by retired players have helped persuade a newly formed version of the Arena Football League to stay out of the state, according to the league’s commissioner, Jerry Kurz. Perfetto’s lawyer, Ronald G. Feenberg of Los Angeles, likened football head trauma to asbestos exposure: a workplace danger whose effects can take 20 to 40 years to manifest.

“Medical science has recently put those puzzle pieces together — that hitting your head over and over on the football field causes certain conditions,” Feenberg said. “All of these hits could have injured Ralph Wenzel’s spine. But they didn’t. They injured his brain.”

Dennis Curran, the NFL’s senior vice president for labor litigation and policy, said in a statement Monday that the league was already assisting players with dementia by reimbursing medical expenses and offering financial assistance to players who could not afford doctors’ visits.

“Any workers’ compensation claim will be evaluated and addressed on its merits and the relevant provisions of state law and the collective bargaining agreement,” Curran said.

After watching her otherwise healthy husband begin to lose his mental faculties in his mid-50s and be placed in an assisted-living facility at 64, Perfetto has become one of the most outspoken voices in football’s dementia debate. She testified at a United States House Judiciary Committee hearing on brain injuries in October and served as a resource for other spouses of former players with dementia; in December 2008 she tried to attend a meeting between NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and retired players but was turned away.

“Having a judge deem this is work-related would move this forward and keep it very visible,” said Perfetto, a senior director at Pfizer who holds a doctorate in public health from the University of North Carolina. “I think when they look at all the information it will just be undeniable.”

The Golden State Retired NFL players have flocked to California in recent years as word has spread about its workers’ compensation system. The state is believed to attract more football-related claims than all other states combined because of two quirks that suit it perfectly.

While most states require workers’ compensation claims to be filed within one to five years of the injury, California’s statute of limitations does not begin until the employer formally advises the injured worker of his or her right to workers’ compensation. NFL teams have almost never brought up workers’ compensation — hoping to avoid even more claims, several lawyers said — so long-retired players can file for injuries sustained decades ago.

Dozens of veterans from as far back as the 1960s and 1970s, including the star San Diego Chargers wide receiver Lance Alworth, who retired in 1972 and turns 70 in August, have California cases pending.

California’s other crucial wrinkle requires a professional athlete to have played only one game of his or her career within state borders to file a full claim for cumulative injuries. The law derives from California’s desire to protect outside workers who temporarily pass through the state, like truckers or flight attendants.

Leroy Thompson is an example of how the concept operates to athletes’ advantage. A reserve running back for four non-California NFL teams from 1991 to 1996, Thompson qualified for California workers’ compensation because four of his 80 regular-season games were played there. In January he accepted a $120,000 lump sum to settle

his claim, whose original 2008 filing asserted cumulative injuries to his “head, neck, back, spine, shoulder, hips, elbows, wrists, hands, legs, knees, ankles, feet” and other body parts.

The NFL unsuccessfully lobbied the California legislature in 1997 to exclude professional athletes from workers’ compensation benefits. The Cincinnati Bengals have for several years included language in their contracts requiring players to file claims only in Ohio — where cumulative trauma is not compensable — and are currently asserting the validity of those provisions in federal court, fending off more than 30 claims.

Other teams have resigned themselves to the significant — and rising — cost of conducting business in California. Teams’ insurance policies have varied widely over the years, but most provide for a $250,000 deductible per claim, according to several lawyers familiar with the system; that translates to about $175 million in total potential liability just for the 700 players currently pursuing claims, or about $5.5 million per team. Most of that is for players who would be ineligible to file in any other state but California.

“The last three years we’ve seen a tremendous spike in claims, and in particular the last two,” said Todd Davis, who has overseen workers’ compensation for the St. Louis Rams for the past 15 years.

He said that the Rams’ workers’ insurance policy covering just California costs about $1 million annually. “It doesn’t make a lot of sense when Player X plays 55 games or 100 games in his career, spends one day in California and files a California claim,” Davis said. “And he may or may not have even been injured in that game — he stretched, he ran one route, was untouched, a pass didn’t come his direction, and he didn’t get bumped off the line of scrimmage, and there was no contact. He can claim injurious exposure in California. It’s a flawed system, in my opinion.”

Establishing links Almost every football player’s workers’ compensation claim in California mentions headaches or memory problems among some dozen other maladies, according to public records and interviews with player and defense lawyers. But Perfetto’s claim on Wenzel’s behalf is almost certainly the first to connect a player’s early-onset dementia with his former workplace of professional football.

Researchers at the University of North Carolina have recently linked pro football careers and concussions with heightened rates of depression, mental decline and Alzheimer’s disease. Groups at Boston University and West Virginia University have found chronic traumatic encephalopathy — a disease caused only by head trauma that typically results in progressive cognitive decline — in the brain tissue of many deceased players.

A survey commissioned by the NFL that came to light in September indicated that retired players ages 30 to 49 had been found to have memoryrelated diseases 19 times more often than the general population; for players 50 and older the rate was five times. Although the NFL has questioned the validity of that and other studies, the league has since softened its stance on the issue. Yet even if early-onset dementia is now considered to have been an occupational risk for players of past eras, that connection does not inexorably prove that any individual case was caused by football.

California’s workers’ compensation procedures will examine that issue through Wenzel’s filing.

“Absolutely this was work-related for Ralph,” Perfetto said. “There’s scientific evidence that these players who had head trauma every day in games and practice, and there are long-term neurological ramifications.”

Davis, the Rams’ lawyer, said: “It’s reasonable to assume a case like this coming at some point.

The result will be determined on the individual merits.”

Other sports like professional hockey would not face the workers’ compensation liability for dementia that the NFL does, several lawyers in the field said, because scientific evidence linking players to cognitive disease is not nearly as compelling.

Medical records are usually vital to establishing cause, but it is not clear whether Wenzel’s records from his two teams — the Pittsburgh Steelers and San Diego Chargers — even exist. Wenzel himself is unable to communicate.

Perfetto will testify to her husband’s having told her many years ago about sustaining “more concussions than he could count,” and about an incident in Pittsburgh in which he was knocked unconscious, began repeatedly running to the wrong huddle, and ultimately had to be helped off the field. Feenberg, her lawyer, said he would seek former teammates to corroborate her testimony.

He will also cite the heightened rates of dementia among NFL football players of Wenzel’s era, and find medical experts to claim an overwhelming likelihood that pro football played at least some role in his condition — which is all California requires to entitle a worker to full medical benefits.

Quail Run Continued from D1 Improvements such as a new Web site, www.golfquailrun.com, and cosmetic refinements were undertaken in an effort to be more welcoming for Central Oregonians, Sickles says.

“It’s a great golf course,” says Sickles. “It’s one of the best in the area.

“All these little changes are just trying to get (Quail Run) up to snuff.”

Outdoor bag racks on each side of the facility’s clubhouse, a small building to house the driving range’s ball dispenser and vending machine, and new wooden display cases in the pro shop have all been added.

Quail Run has also filled in the bunkers with more sand and fitted the cart paths with fresh gravel.

The most aesthetically obvious improvement will be on the course’s par-3 14th hole.

That hole’s pond, which was left drained two years ago because it leaked an estimated 1,000 gallons of water each day, will be relined and refilled. That work is scheduled to begin this week.

“Fourteen is a beautiful hole,” Sickles says. “We’re just trying to do everything to make (Quail Run) nicer.”

For golfers, Quail Run’s Web site might be the most significant new addition.

Until this year, the only way to

UConn Continued from D1 “This one was by far the hardest and most difficult,” Auriemma said. “Not because of what we went through, but we played a great team and they had a great game plan. It took everything we had to beat that team.”

The Huskies (39-0) are the first team ever to have consecutive unbeaten seasons, but that doesn’t cover it.

They’ve been unstoppable over the past two years, winning every game until Tuesday night by double figures, and passing their own NCAA women’s Division I record of 70 straight wins set from 2001-03 in early March.

The championship victory put them within 10 of the vaunted 88game winning streak set by the UCLA men in the early 1970s.

members and bring in a lot more golfers.”

The layout of Quail Run is highly regarded by many golfers in Central Oregon. And the relatively affordable greens fees at the course have largely stayed the same since last year.

But despite Quail Run’s quality, Sickles observes, the course sometimes struggles to attract Bend golfers despite being just a 25-mile trip south on U.S. Highway 97.

Despite its proximity to Bend, Quail Run is not all that easy to find. It is not visible from the highway, and only recently has the signage improved enough to point uninitiated golfers in the right direction.

The recent changes are just meant to make playing Quail Run a bit easier by breaking down some barriers.

“This is such a great golf course, and people should be accessing it more,” Sickles says.

“Where I just need to spend more time is not only in connecting with all my golfers who have come here over the years, but in connecting with Bend people and let them access the golf course, which has not been done enough.

We’ll do that through our marketing and getting them on my e-mail list, where they can get specials.”

make a tee time at Quail Run was to make a phone call to the course.

While booking the old-fashioned way is still an option, of course, it no longer is the only way.

The Web site offers an option to book a tee time online, a staple at nearly every golf course in Central Oregon, and has much more information about the course than Quail Run’s rudimentary old site.

Through the upgraded Web site, golfers can now sign up for Quail Run’s e-club, which sends email blasts offering course information and rate specials.

And Quail Run now offers tee times through www.golfnow.com, a Web site at which golfers can book times at several area tracks.

“We’re modernizing this facility to get up with the times,” Sickles says. “We just feel like we need to do a lot more e-marketing and e-blasts and getting on board with our Web site and online reservations.”

Jeff Scott, a 63-year-old retiree, has been an annual member at Quail Run since 2003 along with his wife, Penny. He has witnessed the course’s growth in 2006 from a well-kept nine-hole course to an 18-hole gem.

And so far, he likes what he sees with the latest tweaks.

“That sort of stuff gets us into the bigger leagues,” says Scott, who lives just south of Sunriver.

“Just some nice, positive changes to the pro shop and the golf course amenities will really wind up making it better for all the

Charles added nine points, 11 rebounds, and six blocks. The senior and Auriemma shared an embrace after the final buzzer.

The lowest-scoring game in NCAA championship game history was played in front of a crowd of 22,936 that included Vice President Joe Biden, who hugged the UConn players after the game, as well as former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. While Biden showed impartiality in his cheering, Rice was rooting on Stanford — the school at which she served as provost for six years.

She visited with the team at a morning shootaround, offering words of encouragement. Rice had hoped to see the Cardinal win their third championship and first since 1992.

Stanford (36-2) played a nearly flawless defensive first half, holding UConn to 12 points — the

lowest ever in a championship game and the lowest in school history.

But then Moore and the Huskies took over.

“I’ve never been prouder of a group of young people,” Auriemma said. “How they fought back today. It was easy for them to pack it in. People wondered ‘what are you going to do the first time we’re in a close game?’ We reacted how champions react.”

UConn opened the second half by scoring 17 of the first 19 points to take its first lead since early in the game. Moore had 11 points during the spurt, scoring from all over the court.

Her three-pointer from the top of the key made it 23-22, giving UConn its first lead since it was 5-0. That ended a 19-minute stretch in which UConn was behind — the longest that UConn had trailed this season.

Spring in your step

Find, sell kid gear at consignment sale Second Stitches, a consignment sale that will include children’s and teens’ clothing, shoes, toys, books, nursery furniture, baby gear and maternity wear, is coming to Bend for several days later this month.

Jenne Redfern, of the Gresham-area town Corbett, started Second Stitches with her husband, Torey. With six children, the couple knows how expensive it can be to keep kids clothed.

“I like designer clothes, but I can’t afford them unless I buy them used,” she said.

The three-day sale will be held at the East Bend Plaza, 924 S.E. Wilson Ave., Suite B, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. April 23-24 and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 25.

Consignors pay $10 to participate. After registering online, consignors inventory their items, print tags and hang clothes.

Consignors keep 70 percent of the price of items sold, 80 percent if they volunteer.

Registered items can be dropped off between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. April 21 or between 9 a.m. and noon April 22.

Consignors are invited to shop during a presale April 22, with discounts and admission based on the number of shifts the consignor volunteers to work at the sale.

Find your living room’s Mr. Right

By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz Chicago Tribune

Buying a new sofa — one of the largest and most-used pieces of furniture in your home, the scene of much reading, TV-watching, snoozing and everything else-ing — is not a task to take on lightly.

You want comfort, style, dura-

bility, fabric that will withstand a spill and color that’ll hide pet hair.

And you don’t want to pay too much. But what’s too much?

Prices can vary wildly depending on the store and the manufacturer. Some of those differences are cosmetic, but most of what separates the high-end from the low-

end is under the hood.

Pricier sofas generally have goosedown cushions for ultimate softness and are made with the most durable materials, including kiln-dried hardwood to prevent warping, doweled joints for stability, and eight-way hand-tied springs to prevent sagging.

See Sofa / E6

Room and Board’s Wells sofa is available in at least 240 fabrics. This sofa retails at around $3,000.

FASHION Q&A

Wash the sport out of your favorite sport bra

By Jean Patteson The Orlando Sentinel

Q:

I have an embarrassing problem. My sport bras have a mildew smell that just won’t come out, no matter how much I wash them.

Any suggestions? Or do I have to throw them out and buy new ones?

Usually, it’s a buildup of mildew and/or bacteria that causes that musty odor — which only gets stronger in warm, damp conditions, such as during a sweaty workout.

Before tossing your bras, try Win Detergent, promoted as a “high-performance sports detergent.”

It is formulated to eliminate odors embedded in the fibers of workout clothes that most laundry detergents can’t budge. It’s also safe for use on all fabrics and colors, in all water temperatures, for washing machines or hand-washing, and is biodegradable.

Naked 9-year-old makes his sister’s life difficult Dear Abby: My brother is 9 and still walks around naked. I have asked “Josh” repeatedly to put on some clothes, but he blows me off and flaunts himself around the house.

My mother is no help. When I ask her to talk to him, she laughs and says, “Boys will be boys.”

Abby, I’m 13 and it is starting to freak me out. Am I being paranoid, or am I right to want him to put on a pair of boxers or something?

— Older Sister in McAllen, Texas Dear Older Sister: Your mother is right about one thing: Boys WILL be boys. Your brother is acting like an immature child who’s enjoying teasing his sister.

On the other hand, she’s wrong to laugh off your discomfort. One reason children have parents is so someone can teach them respect for the feelings of others. At 9, Josh is too big to ignore, and at 13, you are no longer a little girl. If he wants to be naked in his bedroom, fine and dandy. But when he’s in the rooms shared by everyone, he should cover up. And if he doesn’t, there should be consequences.

Dear Abby: My ex-motherin-law died unexpectedly three weeks ago. We were very close, and I handled most of the arrangements. She left no will, so my ex-husband and I did our best to provide what we thought she would have wanted.

We chose to have Mom cremated, but decided to have a short open viewing at the funeral home for her grandchildren’s benefit. We wanted them to realize Grandma was no longer in her body.

This morning I was shocked to receive a phone call from the funeral parlor saying they have received a letter from one of Mom’s co-workers, expressing that she felt the viewing was disrespectful and in bad taste. Abby, we chose to display her body on a table with blankets. We didn’t think spending hundreds of dollars for a coffin for the four-hour viewing was justified, nor did we think

DEAR ABBY Mom would have wanted us to do that. Was it inappropriate?

— Slapped in the Face In Montana Dear Slapped In the Face: There was nothing disrespectful or inappropriate about the way your ex-mother-in-law’s body was displayed. And you were wise not to spend a lot of money on a casket that was to be used only for a viewing.

I applaud your courage to do things differently. Please let that presumptuous woman’s criticism roll off your backs.

Dear Abby: I work for a nonprofit organization, and once a month we convene early in the morning for a staff meeting. To make up for the fact that we are meeting earlier than usual, departments take turns providing breakfast. This has turned into a contest to see who can bring the most elaborate breakfast.

Frankly, it’s all I can do to get breakfast on the table for my own family without the added pressure of having to provide something for my “work family.” The one-upmanship and back-stabbing is bad enough without having to become Martha Stewart in the process.

— Eggs-asperated In New York Dear Eggs-asperated: I can see how something like that could get out of hand. Someone must break the cycle — so why not you? When your department’s turn rolls around, either order something you can pick up the night before or the morning of the meeting, or bring in fruit, granola and yogurt so your colleagues can have a healthy breakfast.

And don’t apologize for it.

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. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Rattle those pots, pans: ‘Masters’ is back

By Gail Pennington

Season 2 contestants

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

All “Top Chef Masters” needs is brackets to be the food world’s equivalent of the NCAA Tournament.

Can molecular gastronomy proponent Wylie Dufresne, returning after an embarrassing Episode 2 meltdown last season, regain his honor? Will he have to face off again against Graham Elliot Bowles, who went down to defeat beside him last year?

Are Mark Peel and Rick Moonen, who narrowly missed making it to the Champions’ Round the first time, ready to rumble this season?

And what about newcomers to the competition? Will Susan Feniger, one of the Food Network’s original stars as co-host of “Two Hot Tamales,” bring the heat? Can a Midwesterner, Debbie Gold, of Kansas City, hold her own in competitive cooking’s fast lane?

Whatever happens, fans of the “Top Chef” franchise will be salivating. If we watch the original “Top Chef” to see new talents revealed, we watch “Masters” to see how the greats live up to their acclaim — and to get a peek behind the curtain at some of the country’s most famous chefs in unguarded moments.

Ah, those unguarded moments. Last season solidified the reputation of chef Hubert Keller (Sleek and Burger Bar at Lumiere Place) as a charmer who smiled through all tribulations, including being called on to cook in a dorm room.

But it also revealed a harsh side of Michael Chiarello, who dropped his “Easy Entertaining” persona to snap at those attempting to help him.

Yes, reputations are on

Here are the contestants on Season 2 of “Top Chef Masters,” airing tonight on Bravo:

RETURNING FOR A SECOND TRY: • Graham Elliot Bowles, Graham Elliot Restaurant, Chicago • Wylie Dufresne, wd~50, New York • Ludo Lefebvre, Ludo Bites, Los Angeles • Rick Moonen, RM Seafood at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas • Mark Peel, Campanile, Los Angeles • Jonathan Waxman, Barbuto, New York

the line, but so is money for favorite charities. And the publicity also can be worth a pretty penny. Art Smith, who competed in Season 1, was already famous via his friend and former client Oprah Winfrey, but since the TV challenge he’s been recognized by the likes of Lady Gaga.

In a change this season that cuts down on the length of the preliminaries, six chefs will compete in each round, with two moving on.

Kelli Choi returns as host, with Gail Simmons of “Top Chef” joining the judging panel alongside restaurant critic Gael Greene, culinary expert James Oseland and food critic Jay Rayner.

Blagojevich fired from ‘Celebrity Apprentice’

Judge settles key issues in Hopper divorce case

CHICAGO — Former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich was ejected from NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice” on Sunday, after yet another display of cluelessness, evasion and arrogance.

Blagojevich’s worst enemies on the show weren’t his Rod teammates. He Blagojevich was done in by his inability to use technology, his addiction to political doublespeak and his inability to admit mistakes. If his appearance on this show was meant to buff up his image in the public eye, it’s hard to see how showing America his most slippery qualities did him any good.

Tasked with creating an interactive display promoting the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter at the Orlando Universal theme park, RockSolid team leader Blagojevich turned over most of the responsibility to Bret Michaels.

The team complained of having no clear direction of what the former governor wanted, but he took it all in stride and even slept on the plane back from Florida.

Blagojevich favored Chicago-style improv rather than prepared remarks during the presentation of the Harry Potter display to a group of fans and Universal executives. Or, as teammate Curtis Stone put it, in terms that Blagojevich himself would understand, “The plan for the presentation was, we haven’t got a (bleepin’) plan.”

LOS ANGELES — Dennis Hopper’s estranged wife Victoria Hopper and young daughter can live on his property while the couple resolve their bitter divorce case and the actor fights prostate cancer, a judge ruled Monday.

Superior Court Judge Amy Pellman also ordered the actor to pay $12,000 a month in spousal and child support.

Hopper, 73, did not attend the hearing but was described by his attorney as “desperately ill.”

Pellman sternly told both sides they needed to come together during what appeared to be Hopper’s final days.

The judge noted the couple’s 7-year-old daughter is about to undergo the traumatic loss of her father and the rhetoric should be toned down.

The rulings came after two months of bickering in court filings, including allegations of abuse by both sides, and jockeying for financial position.

The couple has been married for nearly 14 years. Hopper, star of films such as “Easy Rider” and “Speed,” filed for divorce in January.

Hopper’s attorney, Joseph Mannis, said after the hearing that he was happy with the outcome.

He said his side did not intend to further contest the spousal or child support orders but was preparing for a fight over the couple’s prenuptial agreement.

The agreement calls for Victoria Hopper to lose her stake in her husband’s estate if they are divorced or not living together when he dies.

— From wire reports

Q&A Continued from E1 You could also try such home remedies as soaking your sport bras in water to which baking soda or white vinegar has been added — or adding either of those products to the machine during the wash cycle.

It is possible the problem is in your washing machine, where mildew may be growing and contaminating your sport bras.

If you notice other garments or linens also have that musty smell, the aptly named Smelly Washer detergent should solve the problem.

Order at http://smellywasher .com.

Also, try to launder all workout gear as soon as possible after a workout. And once it is washed, dry it immediately and thoroughly.

Finally, when you do need new sport bras, look for brands with antimicrobial treatments, which inhibit the growth of bacteria.

How to clean brushes

Q: A:

How should I clean my makeup brushes, and how often?

Brush cleaning should be done every couple of weeks. (I know. I don’t either.

But I should!) Start by assembling your brushes, a clean towel and gentle liquid soap. A favorite of many makeup artists is

Thinkstock

Does your sport bra stink from enduring many sweaty workouts?

Try adding white vinegar or baking soda to your wash. And if that doesn’t do the trick, consider ordering a sports detergent.

Dr. Bronner’s Magic Pure Castile Liquid Soap, available at health food stores and Target.

Squeeze the soap in a zigzag motion across the sink. Swirl each brush around and pump it up and down in a fresh section of soap, then lay it on the counter to absorb the soap. After a few minutes, rinse each brush under warm water, swirling and pumping until all the pigment and bubbles disappear. Finally, mold the wet brushes into their original shape and lay them on the towel to dry.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, April 7, 2010: This year, you often live in a world where the impossible becomes a reality. Your focus, energy and drive help you reach your goals.

Many of you are likely to take up a new hobby or pastime. If you are single, someone you draw in to your life might be difficult to get rid of! Proceed with care and get to know a new sweetie well. If you are attached, you can push your significant other only so hard. Give him or her space to come to you.

AQUARIUS makes a great pal.

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 Call on your people skills for a meeting. Others could be very hard on you, especially an associate. In some form, what goes on is deja vu. Snickering and backstabbing come up from out of nowhere. Tonight: Take a deep breath and go to the gym.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Others depend on you much more than you realize.

When you discover that you are out of sync or overwhelmed, others are scarcely surprised.

Understand that everyone has his or her limitations — you, too.

Learn to say “no” more often.

Tonight: Work as late as need be.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Use your imagination and try to understand where others are coming from. A child or loved one

could try your patience. Be careful with those close to you. You easily could take out your frustration from other matters on them. Tonight: Wherever you are, have music on.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Deal with people independently, and you will experience far more success.

Don’t sell yourself short. A sense of insecurity or feeling uncomfortable in your own skin could be telling you to back off.

Tonight: Don’t go overboard.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You come off more abrupt than you realize. If you note that someone is getting contentious, even out of the blue, know that your attitude, presentation and/or words are getting under this person’s skin. Understand that you could be overwhelming someone.

Tonight: Sort through invitations.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Keep reaching out for more information. Incorporate new technology and ideas. You could feel tight or closed down. Focus on what is going on. Are you swallowing anger or frustration?

Tonight: Perhaps the time has come to clear out bad feelings.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH If you relax some and toss negativity in the garbage can, you’ll discover your ingenuity and other such assets. A friend could push you, causing a very strong reaction. Stop internalizing so much, and let another person know how you feel. Tonight: Let go of today. Find fun.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

HHH Be honest with yourself: Did you even want to come to work today? If you can call it an early day or take work home, do.

You will accomplish a lot more, and far more quickly at that. An older friend could be demanding.

Tonight: Stay close to home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Attempt to see the other side of questions and issues.

When you grasp where someone else is coming from, you could be startled. Don’t put off a trip or workshop. You need a break from the here and now. Tonight: Visit over dinner with friends.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Be sensitive to spending, whether the funds are coming out of your pocket or another person’s pocket. In the long run, a boss will be pleased to see this conservative approach. A partner flares, and there is little you can do. Tonight: Look at your budget.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You wake up full of energy.

Others easily could trigger you out of the blue. Keep your mind on a project or what might be going on at the moment. Don’t allow others to distract you.

Tonight: Kick up your heels.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HH You might want to follow your instincts and take the day off.

On the other hand, you can take out recent frustrations through working on a project. You might get a lot done. Don’t allow a trivial incident to trigger you. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

Shoes

Put your best feet forward

Continued from E1 A wide range of shoe shopping can be found in Central Oregon. While we spoke with locally owned shops that tend to carry higher-end brands, many of these styles can be found at lower price points by shopping at stores like Payless Shoe Source, Ross Dress For Less or T.J. Maxx.

Careful shopping can be especially rewarding if you end up having enough left over to buy a second pair.

TEVA MARY JANES COST: $75

SOFFT GIOVANNI IN FAUX SNAKESKIN COST: $105

SOFFT FIORE IN METALLIC COST: $99

BORN TALCA IN RED COST: $90

of arch,” she said.

Acadia Footwear, in Bend’s Old Mill District, is stocked with a variety of spring footwear:

SANDRO MOSCOLONI ARIZONA COST: $130

Women’s shoes • FAUX REPTILE SKINS Hillary Richards, owner of Acadia Footwear in Bend, said faux snake and crocodile are in this season. Generally a dressier look, the reptilian material adds texture and interest to shoes.

While sometimes colored, she said they are mostly showing up in muted tones.

“It makes a really nice neutral, it just goes with anything and everything,” she said.

• PATENT LEATHER Another dressy option is patent leather, which is made by applying a lacquer to finished leather shoes. The super-shiny shoes needn’t be saved for the most special occasions; a high-gloss shoe can also be used to dress up a crisp pair of jeans with a fitted jacket or chic sweater.

Lower-cost, faux patent-leather can be substituted to get a punch of gloss without the price of genuine leather.

• METALLIC Margaux Kellenberg-Hought, who owns North Soles Footwear in Bend, identified metallic colors as a spring trend.

But it’s important to be judicious in your use of metallic, lest you end up looking like an overtinseled Christmas tree. However, don’t be afraid to play with color. Try pairing warm tones with gold or bronze shoes and cool tones with silver or pewter.

According to Richards, “Even sporty, casual shoes like Tevas have gotten into metals,” with metallic texture on Mary Jane slip-ons.

• COLOR Bright colors are in this spring, as well. A fuchsia, yellow or teal shoe can add pop to an outfit, but

Sofa Continued from E1 At high-end stores, you’re also paying for the design quality, the knowledge of the sales staff and the ability to customize just about anything.

Ultimately, said Peter Howlett, director of operations at highend furniture maker George Smith, where sofas run between $10,000 and $20,000, you’re paying for longevity.

“It’s going to last four generations because of the materials we use and the way it’s crafted,” said Howlett.

That’s not a knock on cheaper sofas, Howlett said: “All of them have a relevance in their market.”

TEVA OMNIUM SANDALS COST: $90

SOFFT PALADEA IN PATENT LEATHER COST: $105

BORN CORNFLOWER COST: $95

Richards warned against getting “matchy.”

“If you get a turquoise shoe, don’t wear it with turquoise. Do all black, brown, or white, and bring color into your wardrobe with the shoe,” she said.

Nicole Jackson, who owns Mary Jane’s in Bend, agreed.

“It gets a little overwhelming.”

Again, think of color families.

Jackson identified teal as a trend.

Try adding teal shoes to an outfit that features jewel tones like amethyst, sapphire and ruby.

Another pairing tip: Richards said several of her customers

have asked what to wear with the navy clothing they’ve been finding in stores. Some think their only choice is brown shoes.

She said not only can metallic shoes work with navy, but red shoes can work like a neutral with navy, especially a rich, brick-red.

• WEDGES “Wedges and platforms are still really strong,” Richards said.

“You get the height, but you still get comfort.”

Kellenberg-Hought also identified wedges, noting their versa-

• GLADIATORS, FLATS AND BOOTIES The Grecian style of sandal, with straps up to the ankle or higher, is still popular.

Additionally, KellenbergHought said booties — short, often slouchy boots — are big. Some

booties are open-toed for spring.

“I call it a boho-chic look,” she said.

Richards said flats are still “huge,” both dressy and sporty.

She also said flip-flops remain popular, but warned that buying versions without support can do damage to your feet.

5 keys to smart sofa shopping No matter your budget, a sofa is a big investment. Here are five tips for shopping wisely, courtesy of furniture maker Mitchell Gold.

1. Measure. There’s nothing worse than buying a dream sofa you can’t get into your home. Go shopping armed with precise measurements of your stairwell, elevator, doors, hallways, garden gates and any other space your new sofa might have to squeeze through.

2. While in the store, sink into the sofa the way you would at home. So lie down and put your feet up if that’s how you plan to use it, and test its comfort. Make sure the armrests are well-padded: you don’t want to feel wood poking through.

3. The sturdiest sofa frame will be made of kiln-dried hardwood like maple, poplar, beech or oak, or engineered hardwood. Avoid air-dried wood or soft woods, like pine. Joints secured with corner blocking, dowels and screws will last longer than just glue and staples, and it’s best to have a ticking between the foam cushion and fabric cover. Check stitches to make sure they’re even and not bunched.

4. Consider the cushions. The softest, most luxurious cushions are filled with goose down, but they take a lot of regular fluffing to keep their shape. Less expensive cushions made of high-resil-

tility. She said she sells them to patrons young and old. A younger woman might wear them with leggings, boy shorts or a short skirt, while an older woman can wear them with a pair of linen gaucho pants. Cork-heeled wedges are one popular type of wedge, though the espadrille, with its woven appearance, can also be found this season.

• MEN’S SHOES “Men buy a couple pair of shoes a year,” Kellenberg-Hought said, so they need to be versatile.

“Men are casual here in Central Oregon,” which makes it easier to take a simple leather shoe from work to weekends and evenings.

Richards said soft, lighter colored leathers are popular for spring in men’s shoes.

Kellenberg-Hought said Simple brand casual men’s shoes, which boast Earth-friendly materials, are popular. For a slightly more dressy look, she said leather Pikolinos, a Spanish shoemaker with a more “European” look, is also popular among men.

Another spring trend is called a fisherman sandal. The closed-toe sandal is “the sandal for men who don’t wear sandals. A lot of guys don’t feel comfortable showing their toes,” Richards said.

Both Richards and KellenbergHought were adamant about one thing: The sock issue. Both urged men to avoid not just the infamous “black socks with shorts” fashion travesty, but unless you’re in athletic gear, be wary of any sock with sandals or shorts.

“I think if you’re in question, do not wear them,” KellenbergHought said. If toes are showing? Never.

Worried about smelly feet? Try a shoe powder, a no-show sock (lower than an ankle sock), or buy a shoe with an allleather lining.

“It’s the synthetic stuff that’s going to make your feet sweat and stink,” she said, but it’s not a problem with high-quality shoes. Plus, she said high-end shoes like Pikolinos “feel like a slipper on the foot.”

Pick a fabric, any fabric Just because you can get a sofa in just about any fabric doesn’t mean you should. Interior designer and style blogger Nick Olsen offers some advice on choosing fabrics.

• Microsuede or ultrasuede are red or blue sofa,” Olsen said. unbeatable for stain resistance.

“It could be the giant Smurf in the Another resilient option is cotton room.” On the flip side, he said, velvet. Don’t forget to try Belgian don’t do a beige sofa with beige linen or cotton canvas in summer. pillows.

iency foam compress during use and then spring back to shape.

A happy medium: An inner foam core wrapped with a down cover.

5. Notice design details. Check out the sofa’s arms: A roll arm is

more traditional, while a square or straight arm looks more modern. If you want the freedom to put the sofa in the middle of the room rather than against a wall, make sure the back is presentable.
